Veteran Ontario Squad To Open With Familiar NCC FoeStory By: Brian Skowronski |
Tweet | Email Story to Friend | |||||
Original Published: 11/26/2013 It was a successful season for Ontario in their final campaign as member's of the North Central Conference, going undefeated in league play and capturing a sectional crown last year. The program did lose four key contributor's from that 20-5 squad, but welcome back a number of veteran's to lead the way this season. Warriors long-time head coach Joe Balogh says the team return's "six guy's that have a lot of experience", to go along with players from their "JV team that was very successful." Balogh says the team will definitely rely on three-year starters Tyler Boatwright and Cameron Mack to carry the scoring load, but have other senior's that are bringing leadership and enthusiasm every day to practice. Senior forward Josh Plieninger says he loves practicing with his team every day and although he would like to start, says he will embrace any role coach gives him. Brandon Wagner will surely start during his final season with the program, after becoming one of the deadliest three-point shooter's in the area as a junior. Wagner says he worked his butt of during the offseason to be the best he can be as a senior, and has showcased leadership skills by picking up moral at practice. Ontario will play their first basketball schedule as a member of the NOL this season, after spending about a quarter century as a member of the NCC. The Warriors will open their campaign with a familiar foe from their former league however, when the team opens at home with Bucyrus. Balogh says it's nice to be familiar with their opponent's personnel, having played the Redmen three times last year, but says the team has a new coaching staff and will look different from last year's bunch. And although Balogh has been around his guy's for a number of years and has been working with them for the last several weeks, says you're never quite sure what to expect until the season begins. "You have kind of a feel for your team, but until the ball really goes up, you don't know what that feel is." Balogh says. "We've got a good feeling right now, but we'll see how that feeling comes out on Friday night." The Warriors and Redmen will tip-off the season at the O- Rena around 7:30 on Friday. The game can be seen in it's entirety Saturday and Sunday at 7:00 p.m. on WOHZ TV and at 3:00 p.m. in high definition on WMFD TV. |

The Stanford Daily reported that 110 faculty and graduate students submitted a petition asking the Libraries to develop and implement a book and document delivery service to departmental offices. Assistant Professors of History Jennifer Burns and Mikael Wolfe, who co-authored the petition, were invited to present and explain their request to the Faculty Senate Committee on Libraries and the idea is being considered for feasibility and funding.
Salon interviewed Stanford professor Franco Moretti, whose Distant Reading (2013) recently won the National Book Critics Circle award for criticism: "As a literary critic who says he aims to study books without actually reading them, Franco Moretti has positioned himself as an iconoclast."

Who fuck for bottles of Riesling and bowls of baked ziti
from Drake (Ft. Swizz Beatz & T.I.) – Fancy Lyrics on Genius
TI's girls in this song DO NOT require anything to be bought for them. A few bars earlier she declines TI buying her a drink.
Baked Ziti and Riesling are just examples of how cheap ho's can get. Baked Ziti (approx $15 entree) and Riesling (approx $6/glass) don't cost too much, however, there are still some girls willing to trick themselves out for them.

Kalifornia is a 1993 American horror and road film directed by Dominic Sena and starring Brad Pitt, Juliette Lewis, David Duchovny, and Michelle Forbes. The film focuses on a graduate student (Duchovny) and his photographer girlfriend (Forbes) traveling cross-country to research serial killings, who unwittingly carpool with a serial killer (Pitt) and his childlike girlfriend (Lewis).
The film was released in September 1993 in the United States, and received generally positive reviews from critics.[2]
Brian Kessler (David Duchovny) is a graduate student in psychology and a journalist, who has written an article about serial killers, which draws interest from a publisher that offers him a book deal. After the book deal advance is spent, Brian realizes that he needs to start working on finishing his book. His photographer girlfriend Carrie Laughlin (Michelle Forbes) persuades him to move to California, and they decide to drive from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to California and visit infamous murder sites along the way. Short on funds, Brian posts a ride-share ad.
Meanwhile, psychopathic parolee Early Grayce (Brad Pitt) has just lost his job. His parole officer (Judson Vaughn) learns of this and comes to the trailer park where Early lives with his young girlfriend Adele Corners (Juliette Lewis). Early refuses the officer's offer of a job as a college janitor, saying he wants to leave the state. The officer informs him that if he does not keep the appointment, he will be returned to prison. Early decides to go to the job interview. However, when he is on his way out, he is confronted by the landlord over non-payment of rent. Early grows violent and spins out in his car, chasing the man all over the park.
Early spies the ride-share ad at the college and calls Brian, who agrees to meet him the following day. Early sends Adele ahead then murders the landlord before joining Adele to wait for Brian and Carrie. Carrie's first response to seeing the rough-hewn couple is to suggest Brian turn the car around and leave, but Brian asks her to give the plan a chance, and she reluctantly agrees.
On the road, unbeknownst to his companions, Early murders a man in a gas station bathroom and steals his money. When they arrive at the first hotel, he cuts Adele's hair to match Carrie's. At another hotel, Early invites Brian out to play pool, leaving Adele and Carrie alone together. Adele reveals to Carrie that she is a rape victim and that she views Early as her protector, even though her mother did not approve because Early had just been released from prison. Carrie is alarmed by Brian's growing fascination with Early and nonchalant response to the news that Early has been in prison. She gives him an ultimatum: either they rid themselves of Early and Adele, or she will leave.
At the next gas station, Carrie glimpses a newscast with footage of Early and the announcement he is a suspected murderer. Early kills the gas station attendant and continues the trip with the couple as hostages. They encounter two police officers, whom Early shoots. They next come to the home of an elderly couple. Early beats the man to death, but Adele allows the woman to flee. As Early rushes to find the woman, Adele confronts him and says she wants nothing more to do with him. Early fatally shoots Adele, strikes Brian on the head, and kidnaps Carrie.
Brian regains consciousness, and the elderly woman gives him the keys to her truck. Brian arrives at an abandoned nuclear testing site and surprises Early, hitting him in the head with a shovel. Brian finds Carrie bloodied and handcuffed to a bed, having been sexually assaulted. Early, who was only stunned, attacks Brian and they struggle until Early is hit over the head by Carrie. When Early continues the attack, Brian kills him.
The film ends with Brian and Carrie in a California beach house. Carrie, who now sports long hair (eschewing the short style that Early had Adele emulate during the trip), tells Brian that a gallery is interested in her art, and he suggests they go out to celebrate.
Originally titled California, the script was written by Tim Metcalfe with Stephen Levy in 1987. Metcalfe later commented their intentions were "to scare an audience, to comment on our national obsession with 'true crime' stories, and to punish myself for my morbid preoccupation with the subject of murder and murderers."[3] The script was optioned in November 1990 by Propaganda Films, by request of director Dominic Sena.[1] Sena would go on to mention his positive impression on the script was mainly based on the premise and the character of Early Grayce.
Between November 1990 and March 1991, Metcalfe completed two rewrites of the script to implement changes requested by Sena and Propaganda Films.[1] The characters of Brian and Carrie were given professions as a writer and a photographer, respectively, while retaining the original premise to share a ride with a serial killer. Metcalfe disagreed on the direction the script was being developed,[3] while Sena and the producers found his rewrites "uninspiring".[1] In March 1991, Metcalfe was fired from the project.
Without the budget to hire another writer, Sena, along with his two producers, spent another year writing ten subsequent drafts of the script.[1] Their contributions included the voice-over narration of the character of Brian, along with a change of tone from a black comedy to a more violent thriller.[3] Sena maintained the rewrites helped them to secure the cast, as well as an increase to the originally proposed budget of $4.5 million.

Following the completion of the film, DC Comics commissioned a comic book adaptation from writer Chuck Dixon and artist Duncan Fegredo.[6] Fegredo recalled the 32-page adaptation was planned to be released as a supplementary for the films video release. The adaptation was never completed beyond some coloring work done by Danny Vozzo. Fegredo has speculated this was due to the demise of Gramercy Pictures, a production company involved handling the rights. An uncolored version, complete with Fegredo's original cover art, has since been uploaded to the Internet.[6]
Kalifornia received positive reviews; it currently holds a 67% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.[2] It was a box office bomb, only grossing $2,395,231[7] based on a supposed $9 million budget. The film would go out to win various awards at international film festivals, including one for best screenplay, credited to Tim Metcalfe.[8]

As a CIO, it's your responsibility to chart the technological course for your organization and to do so in a way that meets business needs while fitting inside a budget. Virtualization is one of the most significant advancements to hit the enterprise, and it can be a tremendous boon for the CIO who understands the technology and is willing to implement it across the enterprise.
There are four key areas related to virtualization that CIOs need to understand and keep on top of:
- Managing your enterprise virtualization approach. Implementing virtualization isn't something that should be rushed. While it's tempting to try to keep up with other organizations and earn bragging rights for being "in the cloud" or "75% virtualized," the fact of the matter is that the approach must be cautious. Your virtualization strategy will touch every aspect of the enterprise, including desktop machines, applications, servers and other infrastructure.
- Monitoring the enterprise virtualization environment. The monitoring tools used by IT in the past aren't quite sufficient in a virtualized environment. There are newer tools that have been used to establish what your users' typical use patterns are throughout the day, week, month and year. These monitoring tools are essential to provisioning – making sure that every application gets the resources it needs at the right time.
- Desktop virtualization isn't always a viable option. There was a time that enterprises were so enthralled with how effective server virtualization had been that they concluded, incorrectly, that desktop virtualization must necessarily provide the same benefits. That's not always the case. In fact, desktop virtualization can create its own bag of problems for your business. We're not saying to take desktop virtualization off the table, but think long and hard about how to do it. And, don't forget the BYOD trend, which throws a whole other concern into the desktop virtualization mix.
- Supporting disaster recovery and business continuity planning. Virtualization technologies, when properly deployed, offer benefits for your disaster recovery planning. Because disaster recover rarely gets its own line item in the budget, you need to find creative ways to make your systems able to survive major catastrophes and keep business running. Virtualization offers you an opportunity to do just that.
Today's CIO is forced to deal with virtualization, like it or not. If you want your organization to come out on top, include these principles in your virtualization decision-making processes.

"wonderful vitamix

Delighted to find this smaller version of the famous vitamix at Lakeland. It makes brilliant smooth and healthy puree using the whole fruit and vegetables. Expensive but worth every penny, I think.
"Fantastic why did I wait so long!
" by Julie
I love my Vitamix but after struggling for a long time with the 64oz jug I decided to take the plunge with the 32oz and I honestly wish I had done so ages ago as it has made such a difference. Joy of joys I can whizz up smoothies, fruit juice, coffee drinks, soups, salad dressings and sauces with quick clean up and no elbows involved-) If you are fence sitting I understand because its quite an expensive add on however you will forget about that the first time you use it.... I hope you get as much pleasure from a new jug as I have just started to-)

About the Manufacturer
Timeless designs. Styles unlike anything else. Faucets and fixtures that are livable and enduring. These are just some of the reasons that Moen Incorporated/b is the number one brand of faucet in North America. But, Moen does more than make faucets. It's also a major supplier of stylish kitchen sinks and innovative bath accessories. Moen is part of Fortune Brands' Home and Hardware group - a leading consumer brands company that includes leading cabinetry, door and lock manufacturers. Moen, originally part of Ravenna Metal Products of Seattle, Washington, became part of Stanadyne, Inc., in 1956 as the Company's only consumer brand. Stanadyne was acquired in 1988 by Forstmann-Little & Company.

Definitely recommend Colene Acker from Gig Harbor, WA– Verified Buyer We bought this trim kit to go over the 3-way valve that was already installed by the plumber. A nice feature is that the water is turned off/on by pulling the lower lever out. The water temperature is adjusted by turning the knob clockwise or counter clockwise, so if you keep that lever pointed in the same direction then your water is automatically at the temperature you'd like it to be! |
Love Moen Anthony from Maitland, FL– Verified Buyer– Top 1000 Reviewer We had to match a client's Vestige line, and was thrilled they made a 3-function for that line. The 3-functions are fantastic and extremely easy to use and install |
Vestige Moentrol 3 Function Transfer Shower Faucet Trim is also sometimes listed under the following manufacturer numbers: T4113, T4113BN, T4113ORB, T4113PW

Is there any way (other than having to add custom code) to check if my application has exceeded the YQL limits that are allowed? (Not sure if per application limit or the per IP limit applies in my case) I assume that all queries would fail after the limit is reached, but I'd like to be proactive in adding measures to prevent this from happening.
I am using YQL in a critical piece in the application and since a query is issued every few seconds, I suspect I might be nearing the limit.

I worked at Boston Medical Center full-time
ProsYou will make some great connections working in a very large hospital, Great lunch options, Cafe food is pretty good too. There are opportunities and initiatives that is open to all employees to get involved around the hospital. Benefits are great.
When I first started the org was very mission drivenConsParking is expensive, HR hiring process is extremely slow, outdated payroll system (paper time sheets, really in 2014?)
Human Resources department is constantly changing, nothing they say is ever consistent departments within HR do not really work together.
There is no room for professional growth, And also there isn't any professional development opportunities for training.
Management fails to consider work life balance for their employees, they just expect their employees to come in early, stay late and work throughout their lunch.
Worst of all HR is unreliable.Advice to ManagementAdviceDon't just hire your friends. Instead how about hiring people that are qualified for the positions, people that know how to use basic MS Office systems, or other HR management systems for starters. Also, HR needs to realize that BMC is non-profit and it doesn't have money to waste.
Another thing is Management should open their eyes about all of the indians that they have because the way that they are managing now all of them will be gone before you know it. Management is so busy \ that they are failing to realize that these are the most hard workers, the problem solvers, the ones who ACTUALLY DO THE WORK, and not only pass a long the work to someone else.Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookNo opinion of CEO -

I have a custom overlay that basically draws a route from a list of co-ordinates onto a map. This all works fine but I need the map, when it first loads, to set its position and zoom level so it fits the route into the mapview control.
How can this be achieved?

IFMI Reports Second Quarter 2013 Financial Results
PHILADELPHIA and NEW YORK, Aug. 6, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Institutional Financial Markets, Inc. (NYSE MKT:IFMI), a financial services firm specializing in credit-related fixed income investments, today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.
Adjusted operating loss was $5.1 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2013, as compared to adjusted operating loss of $5.6 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2013, and adjusted operating income of $2.8 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2012. Adjusted operating loss was $10.7 million, or $0.64 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to adjusted operating loss of $1.3 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The Company's first and second quarters of 2013 were unfavorably impacted by mark-to-market losses on the Company's Star Asia investment of $6.0 million and $3.6 million, respectively, primarily driven by weakening of the Japanese Yen during the first half of 2013. Adjusted operating income (loss) is not a measure recognized under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). See Note 1.
"We continued to experience significant weakness in trading volumes and mark-to-market losses on our trading book, both of which negatively impacted IFMI's second quarter results, and were further compounded by an unfavorable mark-to-market loss on our Star Asia investment," said Daniel G. Cohen, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of IFMI. "We believe that investor concern over the tapering of the Federal Reserve's Quantitative Easing Programs contributed to subdued fixed income secondary volumes and, consequently, fewer opportunities for smaller trading operations like IFMI's. While we are not pleased with our second quarter results, we believe our expanded leadership team, prudent cost management, and the capital investment from Mead Park and Cohen Bros. Financial will increase our ability to grow shareholder value over the long term."

Pennsylvania Members Of Congress Could Lose Older Voters By Backing Proposed Cut To Social Security And Vets Benefits -- New AARP PA Poll
Pennsylvania Voters 50+ Oppose the Chained CPI, Believe Social Security Should Not Be Cut to Reduce the Deficit
HARRISBURG, Pa., April 8, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- AARP Pennsylvania today released new survey results that show 67 percent of older state voters would be considerably less favorable to their member of Congress if the member voted for a chained or superlative CPI proposal, expected to be in the President's budget proposal this week. The survey shows that 83 percent of Pennsylvania voters age 50+ also oppose the highly unpopular idea of reducing Social Security benefits to reduce the deficit. AARP also released a national survey that could indicate how a vote for benefit cuts could impact House and Senate races across the nation.
"This cut to Social Security would break the promise to Pennsylvania seniors and hurt veterans who've sacrificed so much for this great country," said AARP Pennsylvania State President Jim Palmquist. "The chained CPI reduction snowballs over time and would increase taxes for most Pennsylvania taxpayers - at the same time that it cuts benefits for children, veterans, widows, retirees, and people with disabilities. As this survey shows, older Pennsylvanians oppose the chained CPI and they've historically made their opinions known to their elected officials."
Results in the survey on the impact of chained CPI include:
- 67% of Pennsylvania voters 50+ would be less favorable towards their Member of Congress if they voted for a chained or superlative CPI (74% Democrats, 63% Republicans, 66% Independents).
- 83% of Pennsylvania voters 50+ oppose reducing the annual benefit increase retired and disabled veterans receive by changing the way the cost of living increase is calculated for veterans' benefits (89% Democrats, 80% Republicans, 76% Independents).
- 87% of Pennsylvania voters 50+ believe it's very important that benefits are not reduced for today's seniors.
- 77% of Pennsylvania voters 50+ oppose increasing taxes for most taxpayers by changing the way the tax code is adjusted for inflation through chained CPI (48% Democrats, 55% Republicans, 52% Independents). However, 13 % said they do not know if they support or oppose this, indicating there is little public understanding of how the chained CPI would affect a person's taxes.
- 83% of Pennsylvania voters 50+ oppose reducing Social Security benefits to reduce the deficit (89% Democrats, 80% Republicans, 76% Independents).
- 85% of Pennsylvania voters 50+ believe that the future of Social Security should be considered separately from the budget deficit discussions (91% Democrats, 82% Republicans, 79% Independents).

Visy Thailand doubles to serve Dole's queuing customers
PUBLISHED: 09 Jul 2013 11:39:00 | UPDATED: 10 Jul 2013 06:40:09PRINT EDITION: 09 Jul 2013Visy executive chairman, Anthony Pratt, wants the Asian food boom to account for about 20 per cent of his paper and packaging group's earnings by 2020. Photo: Glenn Hunt
Michael Bleby
Less is much more Following the customer, going upmarketPackaging company Visy is expanding its plastics operation in Thailand with a new lightweight jar that is three-quarters the weight of existing products and which gives the Melbourne-based company the chance to export further into the region with major customer Dole.
The company has nearly doubled its factory in Rayong, south-east of Bangkok, to 10,800 square metres and invested $6 million in an extrusion blow moulding machine – only the third of its type in the world. This, with the accompanying automation, allows the company to produce jars for Dole to export for filling in China and the Philippines and fill locally in Thailand.
In a business where product weight and size of product runs are crucial, Visy designed the jars with Dole.
The new machine can produce 120 million jars a year and Simon Shale, general manager of Visy's Asia Plastics unit, says while the initial contract is for an annual 45 million, this is likely to rise, .
"We anticipate we should see 10 per cent growth year-on-year for the next three to four years," Shale says. "It could end up approaching 80 million if we do our joint work properly."
Less is much more
Visy executive chairman, Anthony Pratt last month said he wants the Asian food boom to account for about 20 per cent of his paper and packaging group's earnings by 2020. It has a turnover of about $4 billion. The 28-gram jars, 30 per cent lighter than the current alternatives, widen Visy's high-end product range and position the company to expand further with Dole, owned by Japanese trading company Itochu, which has an extensive distribution chain in China.
The new machine is made by Italian company, Techne. When BRW visited the plant last week it had only been working for three days. But the barrier propylene jars, which give fresh fruit an unrefrigerated shelf-life of 15 months, show how the company is expanding and how it is seeking to tap Asia's growing appetite for higher-quality food..
Privately owned Visy, which produces lower-end technology PET bottles in its own plant in Vietnam and in a joint venture in Malaysia, opened the Thai plant in 2009 to supply Dole with 500-million barrier propylene cups for fruit. It was previously producing 180-million of the cups at its Clayton plant outside Melbourne and made the decision to go to Thailand to be closer to its new customer and avoid shipping large numbers of plastic cups from Australia.
The first part of the factory showed that with the cups we'd differentiated ... With the jar line, we now have a double product offering
While wage costs are lower in Thailand than Australia, that wasn't the driver for the move, Shale says.
"The first part of the factory showed that with the cups we'd differentiated," he says. "We were not in Asia for cheap labour. We were in to get the best value, the lowest cost now to support our customer as the market grows. That was one product, one line. With the jar line, we now have a double product offering. We've gone from extruding sheets and thermo-forming to extrusion blow moulding. The high-end technology side means we have had to go into injection moulding closures and caps."
Following the customer, going upmarket
The company is looking to expand further, he says. Dole wants Visy to follow it into Indonesia, but that country is a harder market to work in and the company has to work out the best way to manage its next expansion, Shale says.
"Within the next three to four years we'd like to have a broader picture across south-east Asia," he says.

My period was due 4 days ago. About an hour ago I got really shaky and weak feeling due to not eating today. I have went all day without eating before and only felt a little hungry. I googled it and it said with pregnancy, shaking and low blood sugar occurs a lot easier when you don't eat. I eat regular, balanced meals now. My periods are usually regular, within 28 to 32 days. Last week, I was sitting at the kitchen table and could smell the Kool Aide in the pitcher and the bread loaf in the bag. Both were on the table. Also my breasts are really sore and full. Do you girls have any opinions on this?
4 days late, shaking, tender fuller breasts. Pregnant?

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater is a skateboarding simulation in which you control a famous skate star around 3d environments. Each game area contains a plethora of objects like ramps, rails, and half-pipes which can be used to perform tricks. Each trick you perform earns you more points for your score.Gameplay
The game is divided into two types of levels. In the first, you skate around locations like a mall, a city street, or a warehouse. In each of these areas, there are 5 goals for the you to complete. Some goals involve obtaining a high score, others smashing objects, and some collecting objects. For every goal you complete, you earn a video tape. By collecting enough video tapes, you unlock levels and skateboards for you to use. There are 6 levels like this. The second type of level is a competition. You get to make 3 timed runs through a skate park, and attempt to get the highest score possible. If you do well enough, you will beat the scores of the computer controlled skaters and win a medal. There are 3 levels like this.There are nine real life pro skaters you can choose to play as, including Tony Hawk himself. Each skater has their own signature moves that earn you big points if pulled off successfully.
- Skaters: Choose from a variety of talented skaters such as Tony Hawk or Bob Burnquist. Each skater has their own unique style of skating and signature tricks that they perform in real-life.- Arenas: You can trick it up at plenty of places that were modeled from real-life skating areas.

Yooper In Training
I've got the same thing and love them. Been running em for 3 years with no issues. They're a nice tough material, we've hit plenty of rocks and trees with no punctures. They were very easy to find in the spring and early summer but next to impossible this time of year.

TUAW's Daily App: Cartolina
Cartolina is an app that I noticed over on the great Drawn! illustration blog. While you might not want to get it yourself (it's the thought that counts with greeting cards, and I think that, with both cards and letters, the real thing is still better), you can't disagree that the art of this one i...
