A SEX predator who stopped abusing a schoolboy "as a new year's resolution" had his sentence cut by top judges.
Kevin Hole, aged 30, stopped exploiting the youngster after he became wracked by remorse, his legal team said.
And, by admitting his guilt early on, he spared the boy and his family the ordeal of a protracted trial, London's Appeal Court heard.
Hole, of Fairview Drive, Adlington, Chorley, was jailed for four years at Bolton Crown Court in July last year after admitting counts of sexual and indecent assault.
He was also placed on the sex offenders' register for life, and given a sexual offences prevention order — barring him from unsupervised contact with boys under the age of 16.
Mr Justice Blake, sitting with Lord Justice Davis and Judge Keith Cutler QC, said Hole's crimes consisted of repeatedly groping the boy.
He added: "He recognised that he had damaged the child in a serious way."
But Hole's case reached the Appeal Court as he successfully challenged his four-year term with claims that it was excessive.
Mr Justice Blake noted the gravity of Hole's crimes and their impact on his young victim.
But he had shown "insight into the nature of his conduct and regret", said the judge, and had pleaded guilty at the earliest opportunity.
- Man scalded his girlfriend by pouring water from kettle over her head
- Police called after two ice cream men seen fighting in street
- Teenage trio scare off man who grabbed girl outside her house
- Number of tattoo parlours in Bolton skyrockets by 825% in 10 years
- Thieves steal laptops worth thousands of pounds from Halliwell primary school
"There is substance in the argument that the totality of the sentence was too high," the appeal judge concluded.
Hole's sentence was cut to three years and three months.

The short answer is "no." Federal law does not require an employer to pay unused vacation time. Most state wage and hour laws permit employers to adopt a policy calling for forfeiture of unused vacation time, but some state laws require payment of unused time.

What is the full and correct salah of salahtu Isha? is it 4 sunnah 4 fard 2 sunnah 2 nafl 3 witir 2 nafl ? is this according to the sunahh? pls can you be kind enough to include detail and supporting evidence, thank you all -jazakullah khair
"Allaah will build a house in Heaven for whoever is diligent in observing 12 Sunnah Rak'aat (as follows): 4 Rak'aat before and 2 after the Dhuhr (Midday) Prayer, 2 after the Maghrib (Sunset Prayer), 2 after the 'Ishaa' (Evening) Prayer and 2 before the Fajr (Dawn) Prayer." Hadith sahih narrated by at-Tirmidhi No. 379 and by others. Hadith No. 6183 in Sahih al-Jaami Islam Question and Answer - Al Sunnan Al Rawatib (Sunnah Prayers associated with Fardh Prayers) Witr is generally the last prayer of the night and it can be any odd number of raka'ah. "It was narrated that 'Abd-Allaah ibn 'Umar said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "Make the last of your prayer at night Witr." Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 998; Muslim, 749." You can pray any number of prayers before witr, but they are not counted as a part of Isha. Rather they are a part of the voluntary night prayers, as is witr. "With regard to differentiation made in the Sunnah, according to the hadeeth of Ibn 'Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him), a man asked the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): How are the night prayers done? He said: "Two by two, then when you fear that dawn is about to break, pray Witr with one rak'ah." Narrated by al-Bukhaari. See al-Fath, 3/20. " http://islamqa.com/en/ref/52875
jzakullah, but are these not part of the isha salah then???? pls comment, thanks 4 sunnah 4 fard 2 sunnah 2 nafl 3 witir 2 nafl
According to the links I posted with the hadeeth, we are to read 4 fardh for 'Isha and then it is recommended to pray 2 sunnah. After that, we can pray any amount (even number) throughout the night. Once we're finished with them, we end it with witr (odd number). Unless I'm mistaken, these are not part of the 'Isha salah.
so your saying 4fard, 2 sunnah and 3 witir are part of isha salah and nothing else? where have the others (now marked no) come from then? and the 2 nafl after the witir salah, could these be from the sunnah? prophet Muhammed pbuh used to pray 2 nafl before he went to sleep, is this a daif hadith then or something else and not part of isha salah? sorry for the qestions, trying to understand 4 sunnah - no 4 fard - yes 2 sunnah - yes 2 nafl - no 3 witir - yes 2 nafl - no
I remember reading once about 2 rak'ahs after witr.. does anyone have a reference? Also, if you are in a mosque then there would be at least 2 rak'ahs (tahiyyatul masjid) before the 4 fardh...
also you can read the two nawafil rakats between the adhaan and iqaamah. Abdullah bin Mughafal Al-Muzani narrated that the Prophet (saw) said thrice: "There is a salah between the two Adhans (adhan and Iqaamah), there is a Salah between the two Adhans." And then while saying it the third time he (saw) added, "For the one who wants to." Bukhairi Hadith no.627 regarding the two rakats after witr, I found this: "hadeeth of 'Aa'ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) who was asked about the Witr of the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). She said: "We used to prepare his siwaak (tooth stick) and water for wudoo' for him, then Allaah would cause him to wake up at any time He willed at night. He would use the tooth stick, do wudoo' and pray nine rak'ahs, in which he would not sit except in the eighth, when he would remember Allaah, glorify Him and make du'aa'. Then he would get up without saying salaam, and pray the ninth rak'ah. Then he would sit down and again remember Allaah, glorify Him and make du'aa'. Then he would say a salaam that we could hear, then he would pray two rak'ahs after that, whilst sitting down." Narrated by Muslim; this is part of a lengthy hadeeth, which is to be understood as meaning that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) prayed two rak'ahs after Witr to show that it is permissible to pray after Witr. " Source: (Islam Question and Answer - Is it permissible to pray naafil after Witr?)
4 sunnah before Isha' is a common Hanafi view, and that is also what I learned growing up. However, it is based on Qiyas with Zuhr and Asr. HH has mentioned some time back that this is a batil opinion, originating from some Mu'tazili Hanafis and not from any of the Imams of the madhhab. Anyhow, I think he would be best qualified to comment on the rest.
is their anyone else who could comment at all? I have sent several hours checking around, but nothing concreate.....except the 4 fardh salah for isha followed by 2 sunnah and 3 witr. but what about the rest?? 4 sunnah 4 fard 2 sunnah 2 nafl 3 witir 2 nafl
bump. is their anyone else who could comment at all? I have sent several hours checking around, but nothing concreate.....except the 4 fardh salah for isha followed by 2 sunnah and 3 witr. but what about the rest?? 4 sunnah 4 fard 2 sunnah 2 nafl 3 witir 2 nafl
The established method of Salah of Isha and those specifically connected to it from the original Madhhab in my knowledge is: 4 Fard 2 Sunnah Raatibah 3 Wajib This is the Nass of the Madhhab. As for all these extra Nawaafil people mention, they have no connection with the `Isha Salah itself. Especially these two extra Rak`ah which people read after Witr - it is baseless from the Madhhab's point of view and also contradicts the encouragement of the Shariah, though reading them is still in the scope of permissibility, but that's it. There is also another 2 Rak`ah that can be said to be Sunnah Ghayr Mu'akkadah (i.e. non-Raatibah), and I am still looking for that Hadith. In any case, if proven it would not be the Madhhab (since I haven't found it as of yet), but would rather be a Takhreej on the Usool of the Madhhab.
Yeh I did mention that, but it isn't as sinister as I made it out to be back then. It was al-Karkhi, who was a pious Mu`tazilite. His opinion had nothing to do with his I`tazaali tendencies but rather with his personal Takhreej - Takhreej probably on Imam Abu Hanifah's position that the best Salah is 4-4-4 in the night, and he did a mathematical calculation with the Hadith "Between every Adhan and Iqamah is Salah", so he deduced via Takhreej that Imam Abu Hanifah's position is 4 Sunnah before `Isha'. This is the most rational explanation I could find as to why al-Karkhi (followed up on by many other Hanafi jurists after him, including al-Quduri, unfortunately) said this. However, Takhreej is flawed for the following reasons: 1. Sunnah is a terminology in Hanafi Fiqh for specifically established Salah from the Sunnah, not via Qiyas or Takhreej or Istinbat 2. The Zahir of the Hanafi Madhhab goes against what he said. Imam Muhammad says, إنه لا تطوع قبل العشاء، وإن فعل لا بأس به, i.e. there is nothing specific before `Isha, but if he reads a random Nafl, it is ok 3. Imam Abu Hanifah's position is not actually "4-4-4 is the best Nafl in the night", but this needs to be investigated into further. 4. (a) For the Hanafis, the Hadith "Between every Adhan and Iqamah is Salah" means nothing apart from proving the legitimacy of that Salah, i.e. Nafl is allowed in this period (which is why - we Hanafis say - the Prophet said in the end لمن شاء, and this is a Nass that this is not a legislation for Sunniyyah, but a legislation for mere permissibility). (b) Furthermore, this is a general Hadith and nothing specific with `Isha, when in fact we need a specific statement from the Madhhab or a Hadith that proves there is something before `Isha. (c) Had this Hadith been there to prove the Sunniyyah of Salah before `Isha, it can be used as evidence against the Hanafi Madhhab that does not consider any Salah to be Sunnah before Maghrib. However, given that this Hadith only proves mere permissibility, the Hanafis now have a green card to exclude Salah before Maghrib from the scope of permissibility to undesirability based on other evidences. In addition, let me say: 5. Al-Mawsili, author of al-Ikhtiyar which is Sharh of his book al-Mukhtar in Hanafi Fiqh, even went to quote a baseless Hadith to prove there was something special before `Isha! 6. Al-Samarqandi in his book Tuhfatul Fuqahaa, despite it being an increment on Mukhtasar al-Quduri (where it says there are 4 Sunnah before `Isha) said that the correct is the Zahir 'l-Riwayah, i.e. without the 4 Sunnah.
The Sunnah of Rasool Allah peace be upon him is 2 rakat between adhaan and iqaamah for whoever wills, then 4 rakat salatul isha, then 2 rakat afterwards raatibah. After that is qiyam Al Layl, the very least being 1 rakat witr.
Let me also add to point number 5 another similar point: Maulana Dr. Ilyas Faisal wrote a book called Namaze Peyambar in Urdu. This has been translated in English (I won't post the PDF here). He wrote back in hi sdays at Madinah University in the 80s, and those were the days when I think Ihsan Ilahi Zaheer were there. Maulana Ilyas (who is paralysed due to an accident that happened several years ago in Ramadan) is extremely polarised that he left no stone unturned in proving his point in the traditional Paksitani Deobandi way. To this end, he attempted to evidence the specialty of Four Rak`ah before `Isha with the following: 4 Rakaats Before Salaat al-Isha Hazrat Sa'eed Ibn Jubair (radhiallahu anhu) narrates that the Sahaabah (radhiallahu anhum) used to regard the performing of four rakats before the fardh of isha as mustahab. [Qiyaamul-Layl of Marwazi pg.58] Upon checking this reference, I managed to find it - except that it was a Sanad-less Athar!!!

Ohio Won't Withhold School Funding For Those Skipping Tests
Ohio's superintendent says the state won't withhold funding to penalize schools for students opting out of standardized tests this year.
Listen to the Story
The census figures that say three Ohio communities have been hit particularly hard by the slumping economy might be skewed. Both Athens and Oxford have large off-campus populations of students who would report themselves as low-income. But that doesn't explain Portsmouth's ranking where poverty according to the report has nearly doubled in the last 9 years.
Waves from the Ohio River wash ashore below the post-modern U-S Grant suspension bridge. The bridge is the most prominent feature in Portsmouth, funneling Kentucky traffic over the city's flood wall, into downtown. But look closely at the business district and you'll see cracks in the fa ade. New census data show that Portsmouth is struggling. It's one of three Ohio communities, the report says, that have been particularly hard hit by the slumping economy.
"I really think that if you looked into it you would see that a huge majority of the population in Portsmouth and right in the areas around Portsmouth are on welfare," says Christi Wymer.
Wymer owns a shop called A Different Daisy on Portsmouth's 2nd Street. Like other downtown stores she only has a small client le. From her observations, she says the unemployment rate in the area is unusually high. She's only been able to stay in business, she says, by selling online.
"For a lot of the small businesses I think that people spend the majority of their money at stores like Wal-Mart and they've kind of forgotten about the small businesses," Wymer says. "So if I didn't have the internet there's just no way that I could make it because there's not enough traffic coming in my store to spend the money to keep me open."
The census report says that in 2005, 19 percent of workers in the Portsmouth area were unemployed. That's almost double the figure from 1999. The head of the local Chamber of Commerce Robert Huff says the news is unexpected.
What I scanned I am surprised and I would need to look back into when was the data collected and therefore what kind of changes have occurred over this time period," Huff says. "I don't know of any major layoffs in our community, there have been a few small but we've also had several hirings in our community."
As Huff runs through a list of local employers it's hard to believe the picture of poverty that the census figures portray. The local hospital is the largest employer with about 2200 jobs. There's Mitchellace, a shoestring factory that's been a mainstay in the Portsmouth community for decades. But there are some high-tech employers as well.
"USEC, United States Enrichment Corporation, enriches uranium for the electric generating plants that are nuclear; UDS, Uranium Disposition Services, takes the waste material that's left over after you enrich uranium and they mine out the fluorides and sell those in the commercial market. OSCO is a gray metal foundry. In other words they do molten steel, pour it into molds for the automobile industry. And refrigeration units across the country "
And the list goes on and on, Huff says. Steel Fabricators Incorporated; Sun Coke; Scioto Plastics. He says the proposed Russian steel mill proposal also remains very much alive. But the prosperity that once defined Portsmouth a half century ago may be elusive for the foreseeable future.
In Athens, the city with the highest poverty rate, the story is different. The city that's home to Ohio University had 52.3 percent of its residents in poverty during the first half of the decade. But a local official believes that students are skewing the figures. Bret Allphin is a manager for the Buckeye Hills-Hocking Valley Regional Development District.
"We're seeing a large number of students being counted as anyone else would count," Allphin says. "And technically that's admissible because technically they're not living in official college dormitories."
Allphin also believes there are more and more of what he calls the working poor. People who might be traveling greater distances to work at lower wage jobs.

Chrisette Michele - Charades
Artist: Chrisette Michele
Featuring: 2 Chainz
Producer: Wizzy Wow
Album: Better
Avg Rating: 3.5 ( 13 votes )
Charades are fun at a party—well, they can be depending on the amount of alcohol involved. In a romantic relationship? Not so much. On the latest song release off her next project, a street album dedicated to legendary Hollywood starlet Audrey Hepburn, Chrisette Michele addresses a guy who'd like to get with her, letting him know that she's interested but that she's worried about what might lurk beneath his gentlemanly façade. The cynical side of me says that she's right to be suspicious, considering the dude in question is 2 Chainz—aka, Mr. "All I want for my birthday is a big booty hoe." Regardless, the Southern rapper (who's currently touring in support of his Def Jam debut album) stridently insists on the purity of his intentions in his guest verse over Wizzy Wow's mellow synth production. For more, check out An Audiovisual Presentation of Audrey Hepburn when it hits the 'net Saturday, December 8.

TechMed Charts: New Specialists In Thermal Papers And Supplies For Patient Monitoring And Process Control
LONDON, April 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
TechMed Charts is the UK and Ireland's new supplier of medical chart papers, ultrasound gels (including Parker), CTG belts, Sony imaging papers and associated monitoring supplies. Their medical papers are all fully EU CE Certified by SGS: the seal of quality that the medical profession relies on for reassurance. Their papers fit most monitors and recorders in use today, including Hewlett Packard, Marquette, Seca, Burdick, Lifepak and Microlab.
TechMed began trading in October 2012. Their premises are strategically located in Westerham, Kent, close to the M25, giving them easy access to all major transport links within the UK and beyond. Their management team has over 60 years' experience providing medical consumables, and have previously held key positions within a medical chart company renowned for customer service.
When the business was sold, they were keen to continue providing the same level of service and expertise as their customers had come to expect - and it was with these key principles in mind that they created TechMed Charts. Their extensive experience in the industry means that they were able to start the new business with a compelling mix of both experience and enthusiasm for customer service.
With the support of their CE-Certified manufacturing facility, they are committed to supplying the best products at competitive prices without compromising on quality. They believe this attitude helps them stand out in an area where it is important to be meticulous. Supplying medical consumables to various departments within the NHS, private hospitals, ambulance services, vets and surgeries is not the only aspect of their service: their experience means they can also advise on product selection, as they understand the unique challenges faced by customers working with a variety of equipment and manufacturers.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Step #7 towards an orchestrated datacenter: maximize use of the cloud
By Muneer Mubashir, Senior Marketing Manager, Cloud and Automation
Note: This is the last of a seven-part blog series exploring what steps you can take toward an orchestrated datacenter. Catch up on the other posts:
- Step #1: Automate the repeatable and mundane
- Step #2: Forge a culture of services not servers
- Step #3: Integrate people, tools and environments across IT silos
- Step #4: Assess the agility of application architecture
- Step #5: Accelerate feature releases to empower customers
- Step #6: Use data to tell IT's story
In an industry that is certainly open to criticism for its excessive use of hyperbolic statements to describe new trends (see: "paradigm shifts"), I think the cloud is one technology that deserves the attention. At every level, its ongoing impact on IT is truly profound.
The cloud has changed how business users, and therefore the business, think about information technology and what they expect of it. And although the cloud provides opportunities for IT organizations to adapt and meet those demands for greater availability, agility, scale — not to overlook security and compliance — it does require a different approach. The cloud forces IT to rethink how it operates. The datacenter must evolve. And this is really at the heart of HP's orchestrated datacenter.
As I've described the six important components of a coordinated approach to automating tools and processes across IT environments, I have purposely left the cloud in the background. That's because tying together systems into a more productive and efficient machine to power your modern organization clearly has tremendous value regardless of your IT organization's particular cloud strategy. But if you are planning for the cloud, the orchestrated datacenter will put you on the right path.
In other words, you don't need a cloud platform to benefit from an orchestrated datacenter. But orchestrating your datacenter will maximize the value that you derive from the cloud.
Redesigning processes for the cloud
Cloud platforms deliver benefits, but it's common to hear of IT organizations encountering challenges with implementation, operations and gover.... The problems arise when IT is only focused on cloud as just another technology solution in its toolkit.
But clearly it's much more than that. To get the most of the cloud and ensure it lives up to its potential, IT organizations must redesign their business processes — which they need to anyway, just to live up to the high expectations of the business.
Let's look at how HP's orchestrated datacenter helps to set IT organizations up for cloud success:
1. Comprehensive automation
Non-standard and manual processes are in no way complementary to the agility, scale and flexibility of the cloud, and rapidly provisioning servers, databases and applications in the cloud can also introduce a regulatory and operational compliance risk. So the orchestrated datacenter address this by automating tasks and IT processes in a disciplined way across the entire operations lifecycle. Specifically, HP Operations Orchestration enables full stack automation and processes for monitoring, help desk and change management systems.
2. Analyze application and IT service architecture
Most enterprise applications are rigid and too monolithic to adapt to the agility of the cloud and mobile. For example, the data layer might be tightly coupled with the presentation layer requiring a rewrite to support mobile devices.
Organizations should analyze and identify modules that need to be deconstructed or reconstructed and services that need to be re-architected or migrated to cloud environments. HP Enterprise Maps helps enterprise architects create this actionable cloud transformation roadmap, allowing to plan, translate and map the business requirements to existing and new services, ensuring that business needs are met by end-to-end services.
3. Accelerate application updates
Applications delivered as cloud-based services can be a boon for ensuring they are up-to-date for security and the best features to meet the business needs. But for this to become reality, IT must embrace DevOps approaches to improve deployment.
As I noted previously, HP Continuous Delivery Automation provides Flexible Application Modeling so creating an application is a matter of connecting the appropriate building blocks, including application components such as databases and middleware, and infrastructure components like servers and storage.
But app-dev teams are also using more open source technologies, and IT Ops needs to keep pace in how it moves releases to production. IT ought to employ the same tools to manage the existing multivendor components as it does newer open source technologies and resources in the cloud. HP Server Automation uses open source standards Chef and OpenStack so IT can easily manage virtual machine and public cloud environments — including OS provisioning, patching, software deployment and compliance management — but also ensures application test-dev teams transition Chef Recipes quickly and consistently to production.
4. Manage services not servers
IT needs a different set of tools and processes to completely embrace the idea of delivering services in a way that is agnostic to how each component is provisioned. A good example: the building block approach of Topology-based Flexible Modeling in HP Cloud Service Automation (CSA), which lets you design services once and then deploy them across traditional, private or public cloud environments.
CSA also provides an online IT shopping cart, allowing end users to select and order multiple services at one time from a web-based catalog, with aggregated pricing and individual subscription service management. This front-end user experience is integrated into more complex automated IT processes, so service provisioning, change requests and decommissioning require much less manual intervention or oversight.
5. Use data for actionable insight
Finally, you need to be able to measure the many facets of value delivered to an organization by the cloud. HP Server Automation provides Automation Insight, which is built on the HP HAVEn big data platform and unifies reporting across products and data sources, including cloud environments. Among many metrics, it measures the status of automation and frequency of updates across the datacenter to help you understand and communicate the value of cloud and automation to the business.
Pulling it all together
It's no secret that IT organizations have many varieties of cloud platforms that they can evaluate. But succeeding with cloud is about much more than the technical requirements. To maximize what you can achieve with the cloud, IT must reinvent how it operates in almost every way. HP provides a complete set of solutions that make that possible.

Rays of Light: Spring Practice Notes
Marcus Ray shares his impressions from the first spring practice of the Harbaugh era:
"I thought Jourdan Lewis looked real good once again. I told him that I don't want him to be grabbing and holding. Why play great coverage and then and then get a flag when you didn't even need to grab the guy. He is just aggressive, young and feisty."
"I thought Drake Harris… I thought he looked pretty good. I saw him catching some balls and running routes. He didn't get much action last year when he first came because of his injuries and things but to just get a chance to see him lay… I was impressed with Drake."
"I thought Wilton Speight looked excellent. I didn't see every rep he took, but when he threw the ball he got my attention. His ball placement was excellent. He seems like he can see over the line well, and he had command of that offense."
"(Maurice Ways) looked pretty good too."
" Ojemudia played some techniques that I think he would have missed last year… Ojemudia made a couple of plays guarding the perimeter and playing his technique. He stood out."
"Last but not least I was impressed with Jabrill just being able to make the adjustment on day one to safety at the college level. He was communicating, he was fired up, and was trying to get the guys around him lined up. I heard him with my own ears making checks trying to be the quarterback of the defense and really taking his run support serious. Wherever he needed to be on the field he was getting there in a hurry. Pads or no ads, that's how you train yourself, so I think that's going to be an upgrade. Looks like he was at the free safety."
OT: Slow afternoon trivia quiz for you -- Power 5 Conf City Names
TRIVIA -- If you have a while to kill, why not do some meaningless trivia. How well do you know all of the cities of the universities of the five power conferences? Don't go to the Interwebs to answer these, see if you can figure out the answers yourself. It's not that easy -- unless you are totally geeked up, you'll find yourself forgetting the names of cities you know you should know (like, I couldn't remember the cities for Univ. of Oklahoma or Univ. of Arizona, and I flat-out didn't know Rutger's location).
These questions refer just to the main campuses, not satellite or regional campuses (e.g. Ann Arbor, not Flint). And by "city," it means, city, town, village, whatever, the official address of the university's main campus.
1. What school is officially located in two cities? (That's an easy one to start with)
2. What two schools are located in the same city as each other.
3. Only conference where the cities of two schools have the same name (as an example -- Maintown NY and Maintown CA)
4. Only conference where two schools and their cities each have the same names as each other (as an example -- Smith University in Smith, NY)
5. What other conference has one school with the same name as its city
6. What other conference has one school with the same name as its city, except that the city has the word "City" appended to it (as an example – Smith University and Smith City, NY)
7. What conference has the most number of cities with 2 words in each city name (example of a city name with two words: "Main City"), and how many are there in that conference.
8. What city has 3 words in its name

"The rule of three" and pass defense
Ian Boyd has a really nice article on SB Nation's Football Study Hall (LINK) where he argues that
So the result is an iron law of defensive football in the modern era:
You have to have three good coverage players on the field to survive against the better passing teams.
The two corners have to be good, especially if the opponent has more than one good outside receiver or can move their best receiver around to create match-up advantages, and whoever is covering the slot needs to be strong as well.
There are a bunch of variations that Boyd goes through on how to deploy your defenders:
- The coverage safety: you put a bunch of coverage responsibilities on one of your safeties, allowing you to play your third linebacker (or your fourth LB in a 3-4).
- The nickel corner
- The ace ("shutdown") corner: Woodson back in the day.
With respect to Michigan, does moving Peppers to safety imply that we're going away from (2) and towards (1)? If the solution to hyper-agressive Cover 4 defenses is "attack the slot defender" then putting Peppers at safety negates that advantage while allowing Michigan to stay in its base 4-3 defense.

Twenty-five years in martial arts and sports training will get you a chiseled body and a cool nickname. Just ask Chris "Knuckles" Jones, a one-time professional MMA fighter who now draws on his experience to spread the gospel of muscle at Knuckles Fitness. Chris—or "Knuckles," rather—only trains students in one-on-one sessions or in small groups, as undivided attention is among his several keys to success. Another key is variety, which is why he keeps bodies guessing with classes that range from mitt training to high-intensity speed and agility workouts. One of his most popular options remains the women's kickboxing boot camp, in which ladies tone their muscles by kicking bags, picking them up, and carrying them to the E.R.

Cardiff is home to the Welsh government in Cardiff Bay and much of the media in Wales. Doctor Who and Torchwood along with other television series are filmed mostly within the City and County of Cardiff. It has the biggest media sector in the UK outside London, being home to several television studios and radio stations.
It was a small town until the early 19th century and came to prominence as a major port for the transport of coal following the arrival of industry in the region. Cardiff was made a city in 1905, and proclaimed capital of Wales in 1955.

And IH, Thanks again for your time and thoughtful answers. It really is helpful and gives me a lot to think about. You illustrated very well why the wiring configuration could be problematic. What you're saying is logical - and almost makes me wonder what they were thinking. That V450D03 does not look like the most practical approach was taken there. |
Dec 14, 2012, 12:30 AM | |
I'm going to post this here, just because i know some people like Iflyhelis has had their Walkera Devo 10 short out and fail but was able to get it repaired/replaced because of the defect. I have also talked about how i had a 2702V replaced by wow hobbies. The support for those products have been pretty good. I actually expected worse and got better. I guess that is the up side that comes with being a pessimist. But now i am going to show you why dealing with Horizon Hobbies is beyond this limited support from Walkera. If you live in the US anyway. This is copied out of my X5 build log and the X5 thread as well. As it pertains to my build on that heli. The over all point is that the item WAS NOT covered by warranty at all. But they replaced it anyway. I would never hold my breath on ever being able to send ANYTHING directly to Walkera myself, let alone getting something replaced that was broken at my fault. All within something like 2 weeks.
Okay, so if anyone has been following my Gaui X5 build log. They know i fried my tm1000 module when installing the thing. I probably hooked it up wrong. In fact i know i did, .... now. But i sent it in to Horizon under warranty anyway. They determined that it was damaged due to a external short that caused the telemetry module to burn out. Now i will agree that the TM1000 it's self was not the cause. It was no defect with the unit it's self. But if anything my original blame would have been on the soft and easily compromised silicone shielding on the very thin battery leads. Not for nothing, but the new TM1000 i bought shortly after had PVC shielding on all of the wires and sensors. I have not opened the box on the brand new one yet to see what kind of shielding it has on the wires. It could just be circumstantial on what ever wire was in use at the factory at the time too. Who knows, right? |
Dec 14, 2012, 07:39 PM | |
Honestly, Beyond nice. I think. They really didn't have to, right? Now i might sell it on ebay or something. But building a 700 has been getting tempting. The current problem i'm facing is i'm concerned for walkera V450 parts support. I would like maybe sell at least one of my V450s and build another heli. The problem here is the next heli i build i have to build in slow increments, if i'm going to afford it at all. I can get a X5 airframe for the same amount as the 480 Devil i want to build. But why would i bring two Gaui X5's to the field on the same day, unless i crash one? So it's probably more practical to build the 480, since it will be MUCH nicer than my V450, a little bigger and lots more power with 6S. So i think i would enjoy bringing that and my X5 to the field. Since i never fly two batteries back to back in one heli. But the frame costs the same amount as the already built X5 airframe i can buy here locally. What i really would like is a X7. But thats just a $2000 pipe dream.
Dec 14, 2012, 08:51 PM | |
They should be fine. I don't know what caused his devo 10 to fail. It was probably poor QC at the factory. It was the TX. I really have not ever heard of anyone else having that happen. It was probably just a defect. The worst thing i have been hearing about with Devo Tx's is the Devo 12 screens going bad. I have not heard anyone have any specific problems with the devo receivers. They should be reliable if they work with your gyro and everything. You should be fine. Safe as the next one, i suppose. I prefer to have the longer antenna wires on my RX so i can place them where and how i like now though. All the newer productions off the line of the Devo RXs should have them. Far as i have seen anyway. It's not the end of the world if they have the short wires though. As long as your not installing them on something bigger than a 450 with a CF frame.

October 23, 2014 Postcode: NG16 Lee came to replace five radiators and valves and do some some additional plumbing jobs including removing an old toilet and installing an outside tap. He had previously done a full assessment of the heating needs for each room. He is well informed about central heating engineering and was able to give clear advice on various installation options, He and his father worked quickly and efficiently and the central heating was only down during one day. He was neat and tidy and I would happily recommend him for this type of work. Service: Value: Get details »
July 1, 2014 Postcode: NG2 Russel has fitted a complete new central heating system for us and designed and installed a new bathroom. Both jobs were completed on budget and on time in a satisfactory manner. A good friendly service. Service: Value: Get details »
June 2, 2014 Postcode: DE12 Rod and his plumber, Duncan Newberry, re-fitted our en-suite at the beginning of June 2014 because of persistent leaks from the shower and blocking waste pipes.

Service: Value: Get details »
May 18, 2014 Postcode: NG11 Steve has just refitted our bathroom, with excellent results. He provided very helpful advice, and has a sharp eye for detail.

I would certainly use his services again in future. Service: Value: Get details »
April 15, 2014 Postcode: NG11 Steve built me some little cupboards and bookshelves in our front room. it was a great piece of work, as expected (he also built our kitchen). What was especially good was his patience: we discovered rising damp under some panelling that I asked him to remove, then we had to rearrange dates until I could get this fixed; which he was happy to do. And as usual, his advice is pure gold! Service: Value: Get details »
February 8, 2014 Postcode: NG8 We used Harry to fit a door and partition between our kitchen and conservatory. He gave us advice before he knew he had the job and we were impressed by his attention to detail. His work was meticulous and he worked "out of hours" to get the job done. It was a fair price for an excellent job and we will use again. Service: Value: Get details »
September 5, 2013 Postcode: S42 Paul was first class. We were delighted with the quality of his work, his attention to detail and ability to make valuable suggestions to help our project. He obviously takes pride in his craft, and deserves praise and recommendations for his excellent work at a competitive price. Service: Value: Get details »
August 22, 2013 Postcode: NG15 An excellent job. Always nervous of getting in new tradesmen and chose these guys after reading the Which? reviews. Had some bricks exposed and cleaned, decorating, some minor bits & pieces as well. All looks fantastic. Done on time and to budget. Will defo be getting them back when the bathrooms need doing. Service: Value: Get details »
August 5, 2013 Postcode: LE2 We had a completely new bathroom fitter with the old one, including the tiles and flooring, removed.

WE have no hesitation in recommending them. Indeed, we will almost certainly use them to fit a kitchen next. Service: Value: Get details »
July 6, 2013 Postcode: NG8 Harry has just finished fitting our kitchen, did a fantastic job ,attention to detail and quality craftsmanship at a very reasonable price. He was helpful and always consulted us at every stage of the process, in order to find out about our preferences. First class. I would recommend Harry without reservation. Service: Value: Get details »
July 5, 2013 Postcode: NG33 Vince re-built a shower and repaired faulty workmanship from the original fitter of our bathroom. Since when we've had no further problems. He is conscientious, reasonably priced and pleasant to deal with. Service: Value: Get details »
June 10, 2013 Postcode: NG11 Steve has just refitted our kitchen, while we were on holiday. He's done a terrific job; the detail and finish are perfect, as is the quality of the units. He was also great to plan with: I didn't have much idea of what I wanted, but his suggestions were spot on; and he was happy to spend as many meetings as I wanted to get the plan right. His quote was extremely reasonable and only varied for unforeseen problems (such as discovering our underfloor heating was resting on broken joists!). I thoroughly recommend his work.

10 GHz electro-optical OR/NOR directed logic device based on silicon micro-ring resonators |
Optics Letters, Vol. 39, Issue 7, pp. 1937-1940 (2014)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (578 KB)
We report the demonstration of an OR/NOR directed logic device, which consists of two cascaded micro-ring resonators (MRRs) modulated through electric-field-induced carrier depletion in reverse-biased PN junctions embedded in the ring waveguides. The resonance wavelength mismatch between the two nominally identical MRRs, caused by fabrication error, is compensated by thermal tuning. Two high-speed electrical signals applied to the PN junctions act as the operands, and the logical operation results are represented by the optical powers detected at the two output ports of the device. The working parameters of the device, including the working wavelength, the voltage applied to the micro-heater, and the voltages applied to the two PN junctions are extracted from the static response spectra of the device. Dynamic experimental results show that the OR/NOR logical operations can be achieved at the speed of 10 GHz.
