Randy Orton
Randall Keith Orton- Birthdate: 04/01/1980 (age 34)
- Height: 6'5"
- Weight: 235 Ib
Randy Orton is a third-generation professional ...
The big news backstage this week for WWE was the injury to Randy Orton, which will keep him out of Sunday's Elimination Chamber PPV.
The belief is that Orton suffered the concussion when he delivered his RKO to the Big Show. After Orton delivers the move, he gets up very slowly and grabbing his head and is described as being on "spaghetti legs."
Backstage at RAW on Monday, nobody knew Orton was injured or at least they weren't talking about it.
WWE.com ran an angle from this, which was also carried over to the SmackDown tapings. The angle claims that Orton suffered the concussion when Daniel Bryan hit him in the head with the World Title. We can't confirm that.

Man arrested on drug charges, dad turns him inThe Associated Press | March 26,2013ST. JOHNSBURY — A Vermont man is facing marijuana charges after his father turned him in to police, saying his son was growing it in some bedroom closets.
Twenty-year-old Nicholas Hough of St. Johnsbury pleaded not guilty to a felony charge of marijuana cultivation and a misdemeanor charge of marijuana possession Monday.
Police said Hough's father, Clifton Hough, went to the state police in February and said he suspected his son had set up marijuana growing operations in both of his bedroom closets at their home.
The Caledonian-Record reports (http://bit.ly/YC1DDP) the 51-year-old Hough told police he wanted to put a "scare" into his son and no longer wanted illegal activity in his home.
Police executed a search warrant several days later and found four suspected marijuana plants, and drug paraphernalia.MORE IN This Just InA Vermont State police dive team, supported by ground search teams and a US Border Protection...

Kalila Medical Announces Issuance Of Key Patent For TruVector™ Technology For Steerable Introducer Sheaths
CAMPBELL, Calif., April 2, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Kalila Medical, a privately held medical device company focused on the development of next-generation steerable catheter technologies, today announced the issuance of U.S. Patent No. 8,323,241 by the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), titled "Steerable Medical Delivery Devices and Methods of Use". The company's proprietary technology encompasses a novel catheter tip deflection system that offers the superior precision and control required for increasingly complex electrophysiology and endovascular procedures. Kalila is the exclusive licensee of the patent, which has been issued to its affiliate Shifamed, LLC.
"This patent is central to our truVector™ technology, which enables tip deflection of catheter systems without the use of traditional pull-wires," said Mike Dineen, President and CEO of Kalila Medical. "Pull-wire based catheter deflection systems have inherent limitations including poor torque response and 'whipping' of the catheter tip during rotation. The truVector™ technology solution is a first-of-its-kind coaxial system that substantially improves the performance of products such as steerable introducer sheaths."
"During an RF ablation procedure, precise and predictable torque response and tip positioning are crucial for a successful treatment; millimeter shifts can affect procedural outcomes," states Dr. Girish Narayan, an electrophysiologist from Palo Alto Medical Foundation in Palo Alto, California. "The truVector™ technology has the potential to offer control currently not available with other steerable sheaths."
The Vado™ Steerable Sheath is Kalila Medical's first product to utilize the proprietary truVector™ technology. Currently in the final stages of development, the Vado sheath is expected to be submitted for regulatory approval in the second half of 2013.
About Kalila MedicalFounded in 2010, Kalila Medical is a privately held medical device company, formed by Shifamed LLC, a Silicon Valley based medical device incubator. Kalila's first product, the Vado TM Steerable Sheath, is redefining precision and control with an innovative platform of specialized delivery and access catheters. The procedural benefits of Kalila's proprietary truVector™ technology can be leveraged across a growing number of endovascular applications including atrial fibrillation ablation, mitral valve repair, ASD/PFO closure, left atrial appendage closure, transseptal puncture, and LV lead placement.

Kirk: "Full stop."
Sulu: "Full stop sir."
Kirk: "Z minus ten thousand meters. Standby photon torpedoes."
What ensued was one of the greatest examples of "full 3D" tactics in a space battle in all of cinema. OK so the ship doesn't "rotate" 90 degrees but it flies directly straight up and directly straight down.
Fast forward to the JJ Abrahms era, and of course with modern computer graphics now they can actually show ships flying inverted and at 90-degree angles to each other, etc.
Plus most current space games I play allow for this kind of movement, from Galaxy on Fire on my iPhone to Dark Star One on the XBox.
It just seems ridiculous for a major title like STO not to have THE basic defining feature of spaceflight. I get it that it might be disorienting to some players to have their ship rotate forever and never know which way is "up." For these noobs they would have a noob button that says "I'm scared of space" and they can keep it check-marked. But for those players Spock would call "experienced," they would uncheck it and live the real life experience.
Let me point out that if ships could not fly directly up WE WOULD NEVER HAVE GOTTEN INTO SPACE IN THE FIRST PLACE. Think of the message you're sending to children! These games should AT LEAST be somewhat educational about space. Puh-leeze!

Another option is to use the HK revers-er and slow down control which will give you scale like action. It's cheap. works very good and is very cool. I am finally getting some time to finish my FC. I will post pictures soon. It will be a FPV platform as soon as I decide on which system to use.

I'm quite sure that you will have lots and lots of fun flying the FC! And btw, the flying in my video was not that slow, I was flying with only 40 degrees flaps - had not flown in that location before and I was standing on a hill flying below me most of the time, also something I had not done before, soo I played it safe... Only to bad that the videocamera ran out of battery just when I was beginning to fly a bit more "advanced" - had a couple of nice slow knife edge passes just after the video stops My EagleThree logger with GPS told me that my top speed in that session was 84.7km/h, but that was after the camera shut down... And the bonus - got 20 minutes in the air pr. 2200mAh battery flying like that Greetings from Norway KaiWE |

Sounds great KaiWe.
Really looking forward to getting my FC but it will be a while yet (about 2 months until my birthday). I have a spare Rx, some 2200mah lipo's and some servo's but I will need to get a suitable motor, prop and ESC. However, I will pop into my LHS and place an order, and when it arrives it will be held for me. So when my GF asks me " What would you like for your birthday?" I can reply and say " There's a lovely plane in the model shop that I'd really like, and I promise it will be the last one for a while" Well, that's the plan.....just have to wait and see what transpires.

I wish I had never went with spektrum, not I cant afford to switch over.
I've only had one brown out, but it was on a breand new 50cc Edge that went in after 5 min of flight time on the maiden...total loss After that I started reading stuff and none of it is good and spektrum knows about it all and has done little to nothing about it. If it werent for the neat little BNF UM's Spektrum would be DEAD and gone a long time ago! I'll never fly a plane on spektrum that cost more than the radio now... |

You shouldn't be limited on the kind of gear you want to use such as Ys and such. I've always had good luck, but when you loose $1500 on a maiden when everything in the airplane WAS correct and adequate. There was no reason for it to brown out. Noone else flying. No other kind of interference like radio towers or power lines. No battery failure or internal component interference. I went over every price of that airplane trying to figure it out and it was all fine and checked out on the ground. It was used and flew originally on futaba with no problems. As soon as I put spektrum on it it kills itself.
No granted there are those who use old packs that don't give adequit voltage or don't install the rx correctly or what not but when they tell you that electronic Ys can interfear and cause failure when no other 2.4 has these issiues then it needs attention and a fix. Not just notices on a website and adendums to manuals. But I'm not here to start a war, lol For parkies and UMs and upto 40-60 size birds spektrum is fine. Now how about that fun cub, eh? |

Has anyone gone 4S with the FC? I'm sure people have, but I'm just curious to know how it handles with another cell thrown into the mix. |

Hi: 11° Lo:2°
THE STANDARD has teamed up with the Aegon Classic – the world renowned tennis tournament which takes place in Birmingham in June – to find and reward the heroines from Bromsgrove and Rubery.
As part of the search, world no. 8 Jelena Jankovic, who has this week been confirmed to compete at the Aegon Classic, has spoken out about her personal hero of the game – her doubles partner Alisa Kleybanova.
Russian player, Kleybanova, has recently returned to the WTA Top 100 after her battle with Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Kleybanova's career was put on hold three years ago when she was diagnosed with the rare cancer, which develops in the lymphatic system – the network of vessels
and glands spread throughout the body.
Now the picture of health, she has returned to tennis playing alongside Serbia's Jelena Jankovic, who cites Kleybanova as a huge source of pride and inspiration.
After a recent match, Jankovic praised her partner, she said: "Kleybanova showed that she is such a strong girl and it's very inspirational to others that she was able to come back after such a tough illness and it's even more amazing that she is here competing at such a high level.
"I'm very proud of her and I'm a big fan of her. I cheer for her every time she plays against other people and I support her.
"She's a lovely girl and an amazing person which is more important than being a great player, at least in my opinion."
Do you know a woman who has faced adversity but still remains unbeatable? Someone who has played a key role in shaping the local community? A friendly face that is always there to offer support? Or even a female who regularly goes above and beyond for others? Well, we want to hear from you.
Up for grabs is an all-expenses paid trip to the final of the Aegon Classic (Sunday, June 15) including transport and refreshments, as well as two of the best seats in the house.
Returning to Birmingham's Edgbaston Priory Club for the 33rd year and upgraded to a WTA Premier event, the Aegon Classic is now one of the top 21 tennis events in the world – offering sporting fans in the Midlands the chance to see some world class tennis on their home turf.
If you know a local lady who deserves recognition then get in touch by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com or by post at Aegon Classic c/o Willoughby PR, 43
Calthorpe Road, Birmingham B15 1TS. The closing date for entries is 5pm on Sunday, May 25.
Tickets to the tournament start from £15 per person and are available at www.aegonclassic.co.uk/tickets or call 0844 209 7359*.

mark - Unregistered June 11, 2011 12:17 AM I agree, MotoGP has become a boring F1 derived snorefest, I dont care who is faster Stoner or Lorenzo, fact is that if stupid Dorna stopped ensuring the racing is boring and it became closer, both those spoilt brats would be crying about how close the racing was, now boys and girls, we cant have close racing can we???? 1 agree 1 disagree
RipripTSS500 June 11, 2011 12:24 AM I think Lorenzo is just as smooth, if not smoother than rossi at this point. However I feel he is going to have to push the bike outside of his comfort zone if he's going to really make a few tenths up. With everyone on the same tires, you have the situation that stoner is quite simply riding the tires off the bike. he is drifting the bike harder, and really on the throttle harder and crazier than lorenzo. It's not just the top speed that is putting him out of reach, because look at dovizioso. Dovi and Lorenzo have very similar very smooth styles. Casey is dirt tracking the honda and taking advantage of the electronics that allow such beautiful perfect slip angle without destroyign and smoking the tires up too much, combined with a chassis that is very forgiving for this style.Lorenzo needs more than just power, he needs to trade smoothness for chance taking and outright speed.

Motojunky.. June 11, 2011 12:58 AM Read between the lines.Rawdawg's annalogies have more holes in them than a swiss cheese, and it's the easiest job in the world to be critical after the event. How about making some predictions, seeing your so hell bent on slagging off at anything to do with Rossi. Did you think in your wildest dreams that Rossi would finish in front of Stoner last year, after Rossi broke his leg? Bet Not.Used to enjoy reading Rawdawg's posts (even if I didn't always agree with them)cause they put a different point of view across. Now he's turn into a "pick the eyes" out of everything to do with Rossi poster. "If" he is on the way out and/or can't come to grips with the Duke, leave it at that. Don't use that to make Stoner look better. He can do that by himself by posting the results that he is.Enough said.. Reply Report abuse 4 agree 3 disagree
Ausrossi June 11, 2011 1:02 AM Who are we all kidding, it is Stoner's to lose. He is one of the best riders on the machine to have. He was playing with Lorenzo last round and is good in the wet or dry. If he gets to the lead see you later. If it rains it may hamper him but he has done a nick off and lead by 20 in the wet as well. Equally, yes they don't manufacture part etc etc but if your saying that ride input does not have an effect on the bike your kidding yourselves. What if the ride said look I don't think it is power actually too much please detune it by 10% that wouldn't have an effect on performance? Reply Report abuse 0 agree 0 disagree
Schnertz in California June 11, 2011 2:28 AM Last Edited 1357 days ago This is a gift season to GP's Benefactor(y). Honda has stacked the deck and has bought the last championship in the 800 era. Stoner is the great tool in the tool box to make it work even better. If Yamaha was the series sponsor, they wouldn't have been dinged for their proprietary engineering. They weren't cheating, they were better all around from mid 08' and slowly they were brought back in line with all the exclusions (notice that they mostly affected Yamaha). The 800 series was Honda's fault in setting up this monumental failure in GP history. They blew it and have been on the backend until this season. My question is, what proprietary stuff is Honda doing that no one else gets to have? I'd lay odds on it if it was Yamaha that had eveloped pneumatic valves first, that would be excluded as well, but since Honda had it before they did, it stayed. The inconsistency of the DOR(knob)NA in how they set the rules each year is what I dislike most about this 800 Era. Reply Report abuse 0 agree 2 disagree

The 12 Essential Beauty Trends For Fall 2013
When it comes to autumnal makeup trends, dark, raisin-toned lips are ubiquitous, but at Fall 2013 New York Fashion Week, unexpected bold greens and unabashedly bright blues lit up the runway too. And as for hair, gorgeous ponytails and intricate braids were de rigueur, while nails were painted in geometric shapes and elongating nude tones. As Fall approaches, we can't wait to try all these styles, and neither should you!

I LOVE a cute cat-eye! Having a really good liquid eyeliner helps in that process. My favorite is the Jesse's Girl Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner.
I also rock the ponytail often! Sometimes I let my bangs hang out in front but if I'm rocking a high ponytail, my bangs are long enough to be swept back.
Now, combining the high ponytail AND the cat-eye...well, watch out! RAWR!
1 year
The cat-eye has always been one of my favorite looks! I think it's my love for Audrey Hepburn and Brigitte Bardot, but my boyfriend says he thinks it's really because I was a cat in my former life!

I don't understand the online used book business
I'm using my own book as an example in this posting, but so you don't think it's merely for shameless self-promotion, I won't use the title. But, seeing copies of the book for sale online has me wondering how this online used bookselling game works.
My most recent book carries a cover price of $19.99 and that's what you'll pay at bricks and mortar shops. Some retailers sell it a little more inexpensively and online-only vendors go even lower. The latter is also true of bricks and mortar megastores like Costco.
I get all that. What I don't understand is the trade in used copies of the book. For example, from Amazon, you can buy the book new for $15.16. Amazon vendors sell new copies for $11.16.
The cheapest used copies from Amazon vendors sell for $12.86. Who wants to pay nearly $2 more for a used copy than a new one?
And even more baffling are the two vendors selling used copies for $30.77 and $31.41! Who in their right mind would pay $31.41 for a used copy of a book that retails new for – at most – $19.99?!
And on top of it all, you get the pleasure of paying about $4 in postage.
I see this all the time at online used booksellers. There will be multiple copies of a title available, ranging in price from under $1 to sometimes more than $100.
Considering no one is likely to buy these insanely overpriced copies of books, why do vendors even bother listing them? Can someone please explain this to me?
And if you want to buy my unnamed book, I recommend you go to Boswell Books on Downer Avenue and support local independent retailers.
CarolV | Feb. 6, 2013 at 2:19 p.m. (report)
I like it when your book's promo copies turn up all over creation as used for sale online. Or, when you see your book on an end cap at the Goodwill (I guess at least its on an end cap?). Or when Amazon lists it discounted right away when you have a wholesaler. Tough to get into traditional book sales. I'm curious about eBooks and self-publishing on demand to see if that's any better. No matter what, authors are almost always losing 40%+ on retail for new sales unless they sell direct themselves. Tough business unless you're JK Rowling or something. I don't get it either Bobby.

littletinyfish | Feb. 6, 2013 at 9:58 a.m. (report)
There are weird robots that game the Amazon system, and when you get two of those robots competing with each other it can really drive down prices. The places that list the books more expensively (the $30 seller, for instance) is just hoping that some poor sucker stumbles upon the book and buys it without thinking about it further. That seller may not even have the book. They'll list it higher, wait for someone to buy it, then they'll purchase a cheap copy later and send it out to the sucker.

Threatened buildings define Third Ward's DNA
Published Feb. 19, 2015
General Capital Group and Joseph Property Development bought three properties from Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design in September and unveiled plans to raze the structures to build a mixed-use development with retail, apartments and a commons space for MIAD students to replace one of the buildings, which had served as the school's student union. Two of the three are threatened with destruction.

Sean followed Bridget with his eyes. She looked immensely better, better than when he had seen her when he asked if she'd like to join them for scones. It didn't make any sense whatsoever. How could one woman seem to perk up so much in a matter of minutes? He rested his chin on his hand, and riveted his eyes on Bridget as she settled herself on the sofa next to Father Clancy."Ah, my dear girl, you

Dayton plan puts $1.2 billion surplus toward more tax cuts, bigger reserves
ST. PAUL - A bigger tax cut and depositing more money in the state budget reserves are Gov. Mark Dayton's priorities in how to deal with a $1.2 billion surplus.
The Democratic governor this morning announced he wants $616 million in tax cuts, a figure that includes $500 million the House is expected to approve later today. He also would spend $162 million more than is included in a $39 billion, two-year budget approved last year.

Reviews for Naruto: Land of Darkness |
Titan Thanos chapter 6 . 9/21/2006 Caught up and man that was a long chapter. That was an intense fight between Hinata and Neji. She sure kicked his ass (just desserts for the Chuunin Exams). Now, he's been bit. I'd hate to be Tenten now. A very touching flashback between Tsukimaru and Saya. She really needs to find a way out of that hell hole and save her son. Great Naruto story and very creative of you to come up with a new village. Yamigakure has a nice ring to it. Dare I say that I got a chuckle out of Ino's insult toward Mikon. I'd hate to her by the next chapter. o.o Take your time with the 7th chapter. School always comes first but it surely will be a good chapter. I expect no more or less from you. _ Thanos of Titan. |
Titan Thanos chapter 5 . 9/21/2006 You and your cliff hangers. :P Great chapter and some neat jutsus from the Yami-nin. I'm looking forward to knowing the past involving Kyuubi and Damien. Man, you just had to turn Hinata into a vampire. I'm going to get you for that. (raises a fist) Neji better watch himself. |
Titans Thanos chapter 4 . 9/21/2006 Great ninja action! Those were some neat Jutsus by Mikon. Poor, Hinata. She has been bit. I really do hope you change her back. Off to read the next chapter. |
Titan Thanos chapter 3 . 9/21/2006 Oh no! Hinata's been captured! Save them, you guys! (cue dramatic rescue music) Off to read the next chapter. Good work. |
Titan Thanos chapter 2 . 9/21/2006 Nice. Now we've been introduced to the villains of the story. Ai attacking the group like that wasn't cool but understandable. Oh and she knows Naruto is the vessel for the Kyuubi? Good job with the story, my friend. |
Titan Thanos chapter 1 . 9/21/2006 Nice beginning. Should be a promising Naruto story. Yep and you're living up true to the characters' personalities. I also like the descriptions. Shall read the rest. |
LazerWulf chapter 6 . 9/11/2006 Sangara... now where have I heard that name before? (lolz) Man, Vamp-Hinata beat the shit out of Neji. If Hinata gained that much power as a vamp, then Vamp-Neji is gonna be scary. Poor Ten Ten, it looks like she's gonna be his first victim, too. Since the Darknes Country is between the Fire Country and the Wind Country, is there a chance of seeing the Sand Siblings in this fic? And what of Rock Lee? Will he recover from his operation in time to help out? Will he be the one to defeat Vamp-Neji? Phila-Del-Phia! LazerWulf P.S. I know how hectic college schedules can be, so you have my sympathies. |
Kid chapter 6 . 9/10/2006 Top-notch writing as always. Hinata had supressed rage? I get bits of those all the time. I was also surprised at Kagemaru. I've always believed that all Vampires were about as heartless as most villains I've come across. It seems I was proven wrong. Note to Ino: Don't heckle the supervillain. |
Belletiger chapter 6 . 9/10/2006 Great chapter! Wow, vamp-Hinata was really scary. I feel sorry for Nenji. Will Tenten be Nenji's first victim when he wakes up as a vampire? Well, I have to wait for the next chapter to see that. I liked very much on Saya and Adam's side of point of vew. I cant wait to see Damien's side of story. Whatever it is, I am feeling its not going to be good. Oh oh, Ino called Mikon a slut? She will be so dead when she faces Mikon's wrath. I can't wait to see the next chapter |
Ultra Sonic 007 chapter 6 . 9/10/2006 A fellow NaruHina fan. :D You know my thoughts from the e-mail. |
LazerWulf chapter 5 . 8/22/2006 I was willing to let it go last chapter, but since it was used so many times in this one, I have to correct you. It's "hypodermic", not "hypothermic" hypo-below; dermic-skin (as in dermatology); hypodermic-below the skin. Thermic relates to temperature, so hypothermic needles would be needles that are really, really, cold. Anyway... Shikamaru and Team Asuma arrive! Formation Ino-Shika-Chou! Phila-Del-Phia! LazerWulf |
LazerWulf chapter 4 . 8/22/2006 Oh, no! Not Hinata-chan! Sorry it took so long for me to get to this. Phila-Del-Phia! LazerWulf |
Crimson G chapter 5 . 8/20/2006 Good chapter dude. Hinata has been come the creature of the night. So there Kyubi knew Damien. Later. |
Belletiger chapter 5 . 8/19/2006 yeah! Finally the chapter 5 of Naruto story! You know, I hate cliffhanger, but the chapter is still good. I liked the fight between the team 7 and Adam. Poor Adam, I am staring to hate Damien and Mikon even more. I dunno what he plans with Adam's mother, but is not good thing. I liked the fight between Team Gai with Kagemaru , Myotis and Guraida (I am really liking those guys ). Oh no, Hinata is now a vampire!becareful neji! She's not the same hinata you knew before. Kyuubi talking was funny. You know, I never expected that he knew Damien and his vamp army. much less Adam's father. I wonder what else Kyuubi knows about those vamps. I can't wait to see what happens in the next chapter |
Ultra Sonic 007 chapter 5 . 8/18/2006 Hmm. I'm not sure what to think about the Kyuubi; he seems a bit too joking and 'human-like'. He doesn't seem to invoke the sheer power, imposing nature, and demonic nature of the Nine Tailed Demon Fox. Sure, there's plenty of mocking of Naruto...but it just seems too much like a human mocking Naruto, and not a mighty Tailed Demon mocking him. Eh, maybe I'm overcritical. I've been reading lots of good Naruto fanfiction lately. The rest of the chapter was good though. One small goof; "Show him why you, as a Yami-nin, will not tolerate his superior complexity." I think you meant superiority complex. Good luck in college. I start on Tuesday. XO |

One of the major advantages in SCTP is supporting multi-homing communication. If a multi-homed end-point has redundant network connections, SCTP sessions can have a good chance to survive from network failures by migrating inactive network to active one. However, if we follow the SCTP standard, there can be significant delay for the network migration. During this migration period, SCTP cannot transmit much data to the destination. This issue drastically impairs the usability of SCTP in some situations. This memo describes the issue of SCTP failover mechanism and discuss its solutions which require minimal modification to the current standard.

MicroTrolling. A bold new concept in trolling for the Web 3.9 crowd. Who the shit honestly has time in this rampantly obese, work-a-day world to devote months or years or even more than one hour to trolling someone? Not this fat retard, that's for damn sure.
The idea is simple: extract as many lulz as possible in as little time as possible. You have one hour. The clock starts when the victim takes the bait. In. Lulz. Out. Done. If you can't make someone mad on the internet in less than an hour, you're doing it wrong.
MicroTrolling: Get the lulz and then get on with your life.
Today's Subject: MrDrumsPhilAmbros
Subject Profile: Subject is a 66 year old man from New Jersey or some shit that fancies himself the best drummer in the world because once, 30 years ago, Buddy Rich took a picture with him. Rather than headlining clubs all over America, subject is content to sit on his fat, white ass and troll amateur Youtube drum videos - often videos by beginner drummers who totally need some crazy, bitter senior citizen yelling at them to give up drumming because they aren't as good as Gene Krupa and Buddy Rich after 6 months of playing.
Sample Quote: "THIS WAS A WASTE OF TIME YOU SHOULD HAVE GOT TO THE POINT? AND DUMPTHE MUSIC JUST SHOW WHAT YOU ARE SELLING WHO EVER DID THIS IS A ASS HOLE BRAIN DEAD PERSON, YOU SHOULD HAVE GOT ME?? A REAL PRO WHO KNOWS"
Angle of Attack: MrDrumsPhilAmbros considers himself to be the best drummer in the world, but what happens when he meets the REAL best drummer in the world? By which I mean "me, posing as him, and sending him a clip of his own playing as proof that I'm better than him".
I begin by throwing the gauntlet down and also drawing a line in the sand. Surely, Phil will be humbled by my JAZZ CHOPS and not even reply, right? UP THE BRAINDEAD PUNX!!!
...well, geez. That didn't take long. It's almost as if Phil sits around on his old-ass ass all day, yelling at the internet kids to get off his internet lawn. CLOCK STARTS NOW.
Clearly, Phil isn't acquainted with my resume. I am, of course, taken aback by this. I am, after all, a SERIOUS JAZZMAN. I proceed to drop some knowledge on a fool.
Phil immediately jumps to both the jealousy and, weirdly, the racism card. Damn those Irish! Nothing but laze-about ne'er-do-wells with nary a jazz chop in sight!

ABSTRACT: To profile hospitals by survival rates of colorectal cancer patients in multiple periods after initial treatment. California Cancer Registry data from 50,544 patients receiving primary surgery with curative intent for stage I-III colorectal cancer in 1994-1998, supplemented with hospital discharge abstracts. We estimated a single Bayesian hierarchical model to quantify associations of survival to 30 days, 30 days to 1 year, and 1-5 years by hospital, adjusted for patient age, sex, race, stage, tumor site, and comorbidities. We compared two profiling methods for 30-day survival and four longer-term profiling methods by the fractions of hospitals with demonstrably superior survival profiles and of hospital pairs whose relative standings could be established confidently. Interperiod correlation coefficients of the random effects are (95 percent credible interval 0.27, 0.85), (0.20, 0.76), and (0.19, 0.82). The three-period model ranks 5.4 percent of pairwise comparisons by 30-day survival with at least 95 percent confidence, versus 3.3 percent of pairs using a single-period model, and 15-20 percent by weighted multiperiod methods. The quality of care for colorectal cancer provided by a hospital system is somewhat consistent across the immediate postoperative and long-term follow-up periods. Combining mortality profiles across longer periods may improve the statistical reliability of outcome comparisons.Health Services Research 06/2011; 46(3):729-46. · 2.49 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To assess associations of patient characteristics with quality-related characteristics of the hospitals where they were treated for colorectal cancer and the role of these associations in disparities in treatment quality affecting vulnerable patient groups or variations across health plans. Population-based cancer registry in California. A total of 38 237 patients diagnosed with stage I-III (non-metastatic) colorectal cancer in California between 1994 and 1998. Registry data were linked with hospital discharge abstracts, US census data, and Medicare enrollment data. The associations of patients' sociodemographic, clinical, and geographic covariates with treatment at high-volume institutions were assessed with logistic regression. The associations of patients' covariates with the risk-adjusted 30-day mortality rates of the hospitals where they received surgery were tested with linear regression. Patients with more advanced tumor stage or more extensive comorbidity, those of Hispanic or Asian race/ethnicity, and those from less affluent communities were less likely to undergo surgery at high-volume institutions and were treated at hospitals with higher risk-adjusted 30-day postoperative mortality rates than those who were less severely ill, white, or more affluent, respectively (all P < 0.05). Black patients also received surgery at hospitals with above-average mortality. Among patients 65 years and older, Medicare managed-care enrollees underwent surgery in higher-volume hospitals than Medicare fee-for-service enrollees, and there was substantial variation in hospital volume and adjusted hospital mortality among Medicare managed-care plans. Improving access of sicker, poorer, and minority patients to high-quality hospitals for cancer surgery may improve their outcomes. Further study of processes affecting hospital referral is warranted.International Journal for Quality in Health Care 03/2007; 19(1):11-20. · 1.58 Impact Factor -
Article: Relation of hospital volume to colostomy rates and survival for patients with rectal cancer.
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Postoperative mortality after some types of cancer surgery is inversely related to the number of operations performed at a hospital (i.e., hospital volume). This study assessed the association of hospital volume with colostomy rates and survival for patients with rectal cancer in a large representative cohort identified from the California Cancer Registry. We identified 7257 patients diagnosed from January 1, 1994, through December 31, 1997, with stage I-III rectal cancer who underwent surgical resection. Registry data were linked to hospital discharge abstracts and ZIP-code-level data from the 1990 U.S. Census. Associations of hospital volume with permanent colostomy and 30-day mortality were assessed with the Mantel-Haenszel trend test and logistic regression. Overall survival was examined with the Kaplan-Meier method and a multivariable Cox proportional hazards model. Multivariable analyses adjusted for demographic and clinical variables and patient clustering within hospitals. All tests of statistical significance were two-sided. In unadjusted analyses across decreasing quartiles of hospital volume, we observed statistically significant increases in colostomy rates (29.5%, 31.8%, 35.2%, and 36.6%; P<.001) and in 30-day postoperative mortality (1.6%, 1.6%, 2.9%, and 4.8%; P<.001) and a decrease in 2-year survival (83.7%, 83.2%, 80.9%, and 76.6%; P<.001). The adjusted risks of permanent colostomy (odds ratio [OR] = 1.37, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.10 to 1.70), 30-day mortality (OR = 2.64, 95% CI = 1.41 to 4.93), and 2-year mortality (hazard ratio = 1.28, 95% CI = 1.15 to 1.44) were greater for patients at hospitals in the lowest volume quartile than for patients at hospitals in the highest volume quartile. Stratification by tumor stage and comorbidity index did not appreciably affect the results. Adjusted colostomy rates varied statistically significantly (P<.001) among individual hospitals independent of volume. Rectal cancer patients who underwent surgery at high-volume hospitals were less likely to have a permanent colostomy and had better survival rates than those treated in low-volume hospitals. Identifying processes of care that contribute to these differences may improve patients' outcomes in all hospitals.CancerSpectrum Knowledge Environment 06/2003; 95(10):708-16. · 14.07 Impact Factor

Rivers on Curry outburst: 'Special to watch'
February, 28, 2013
Chris Forsberg | ESPNBoston.com
Nathaniel S. Butler/NBAE/Getty ImagesSteph Curry had a big night in New York; the Celtics want to prevent a repeat on Friday.
Curry erupted for 54 points on 18-of-28 shooting (11 of 13 beyond the 3-point arc) in a 109-105 loss to the Knicks. The Warriors visit TD Garden on Friday night and Rivers admitted part of him went from strategizing coach to pure fan watching Curry's performance on Wednesday.
"That was special to watch. You may start out as coach, but as it went on, you marvel just like anyone else," Rivers said Thursday morning during his weekly call to Boston sports radio WEEI (93.7 FM). "Some of the shots he was making was spectacular."
So how do the Celtics contain Curry?
"You foul him," quipped Rivers. "I don't know. When a guy gets in a zone like that, it's just hard. It's so easy to say deny him, but he's the point guard, so he always has the ball in his hands, for the most part. That's what makes it so difficult. [Other scorers] who are off the ball, you have a better chance, but a guy with the ball, in that zone, that's hard."
The Celtics will likely give Curry a healthy dose of Avery Bradley, hoping his ball pressure can prevent a similar outburst.
"[Bradley's] thing is to bother your dribble, that's what he does so well," said Rivers. "He puts so much pressure on the ball-handler. What [the Warriors] do a great job of is, Steph gets a lot of shot off the dribble, but then he gives it up and they bring him off three, four, [or] five picks as well, and that's not so easy."
Rivers noted how Bradley's pressure in Monday's win in Utah might have changed the complexion of that game, forcing Utah away from its post offense, where it had a considerable size advantage against Boston.
"[Bradley's ball pressure] has been key to our defense, the ability to -- you think about the Jazz game, the size advantage they had -- as the game went on they went less and less to the post," said Rivers. "They didn't have enough time. Avery single-handedly, at times, took them out of their post game."
Read on for a handful of quick hits from Rivers' call.
* BEST WIN IN UTAH?: Asked about his declaration that Monday's win was his team's best of the season, Rivers noted, "For a team, the mental toughness they had to show -- let's just be honest, when that schedule came out, and you saw saw that fifth game in seven nights, time zone change, you didn't like the way it looked."
* TRADE GOT CLIPPED?: Rivers downplayed all the chatter about a potential Celtics-Clippers swap that would have sent Kevin Garnett to Los Angeles at the deadline. "Just because ESPN says there talk, does not mean there's talk of significance. [Celtics president of basketball operations] Danny [Ainge] talks to everybody, I'm sure, and everybody calls him. But very few big discussions are made, at least this year, and that was the case with the Clippers."
* VETS IN PLAYOFFS: Asked if he was worried about whether his veterans like Garnett and Paul Pierce could sustain their play in the postseason, Rivers scoffed at the notion that they might falter. "I think they'll be great when the playoffs starts, I think they'll be better because there's more rest and our key is to get them there fresh," he said. "I thought that may have had something to do with Danny not making a trade… I didn't think anything was out there that appealed to us."
* INTEGRATING NEW FACES: With some practice time this week to further integrate new faces like Jordan Crawford, Terrence Williams and D.J. White, Rivers said the key is to not overload them. "Understand that they are not going to pick up everything and try to teach them the things you really need them to pick up, defensively and offensively," said Rivers. "Then try to integrate what they do well into the little things that you're going to give them. Because you know you can't give them everything."

Why do manufactures put small primer pockets on large cases that typically use large primers? I picked up some 45 acp bass the other day from the range and some of them take small pistol primers, talk about a way to throw off your reloading rhythm. The cases were made by federal and they looked to be new. What's going on? Sent from my Inspire 4G using FirearmsTalk

Because its cheaper ????????
IIRC, there was a previous thread about this that surmized that .45acp was about the only caliber that Federal was loading at some plant or other that normally used the bigger primers. It would make sense to try to use the same size primers rather than make an exception for one line/caliber.
Dead Bears, the only good kind.
CCI Blazer is also using small primers in .45acp. I know because it keeps making me stop my progressive loader.
Romans 1:16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile.
I think I read that the small primer .45 cases were those that used enviro friendly lead free primers. I found 8 of them among the batch I was priming the other night. I have not done anything with them yet but I also read that small pistol primers will work fine in place of the normal large pistol primers. I am going to research that a bit more before I load them though.
The reason 45acp was designed with large primers was because at the time pistol powder wasnt easy to ignite in a case the size of the 45acp. Small modern pistol primers have enough heat generation to ignite pistol powder that federal uses. So its cheaper for them to streamline and use the smaller primers. I just segragate out the small primer cases from range pickups and take those on my trips to texas and leave em where i shoot em. Or use em for trade fodder
