Last Memorial Day weekend I was out a pub enjoying a nice Guinness when news broke that Everett Golson would was no longer enrolled at Notre Dame. Last night I decided to spend a glorious Wednesday evening enjoying a refreshing Sam Adams Summer Ale with an old college roommate when news broke that Blake Barnett decommitted from Notre Dame and was no longer considering the Irish.
Clearly the Notre Dame news cycle does not like to see me enjoy a relaxing night out. Unfortunately, the Notre Dame news cycle also just does not seem to want to be kind to the quarterback position at Notre Dame. After year and years of instability and depth problems at the position Notre Dame finally has a stocked depth chart and until Tuesday night had a heralded, rising star recruit committed and ready to add to that depth.
The news of Barnett decommitting didn't come as a complete surprise as news spread earlier on Tuesday that he had visited Oregon over the weekend. When you consider that Barnett committed to Notre Dame over six months ago though and had held steadfast in being firmly committed to Notre Dame up until the last 48 hours, the situation escalated quicker than any other I can remember since we've been covering Notre Dame recruiting on UHND.
Luckily for Brian Kelly and the Notre Dame coaching staff they have plenty of time to regroup and still land a an elite signal caller for the class of 2015. Here's an updated look of where Notre Dame stands and where they go moving forward.
What Impact will Losing Barnett Have?
One of the greatest parts of adding an elite quarterback as early as Notre Dame did in this recruiting cycle is that doing so generally leads to a very strong classes. When a class has a headliner like Barnett at QB on board early, other recruits tend to gravitate towards the classes with elite quarterbacks.
With Barnett on-board early Notre Dame had already added a pair of wide receivers and filled out the offensive line class. The staff is going to need to stay on both wide receivers prospects to make sure they are still solid as well. Right now nothing points to either Jalen Guyton or CJ Sanders wavering, but considering Barnett was on board when they committed, I'm sure both recruits were quick to hear from the Irish staff as news broke of Barnett decommitting.
Notre Dame can still have a great class without immediately adding a quarterback. Just three years ago Notre Dame brought in one of the best classes it's had in a long time without adding a quarterback – Everett Golson – until very late in the process. Until Notre Dame finds a replacement for Barnett, they will need one of the other committed recruits to become the unofficial face of the class.
Who will Notre Dame target to replace Barnett?
It's been just over 24 hours since Barnett decommitted and we already have a clear idea of who Kelly and staff are targeting to fill the quarterback position in this year's class.
The first name to surface was Jarrett Stidham. The Under Armour All-American tweeted on Thursday afternoon that he had just been offered by Notre Dame.
Just got offered by Notre Dame! #Irish
— Jarrett Stidham (@Jarrett_Stidham) June 5, 2014
On top of being an Under Armour All-American, Stidham is a 4-star prospect and pretty much a consensus top 100 overall prospect across the recruiting services. At 6-3.5 he is slightly shorter than Barnett but with a sub 4.6 40 yard dash he brings plenty of speed earning him the #3 ranking at dual threat QB from 247 Sports. Stidham, a Texas native, is currently committed to Texas Tech however.
An hour later, another offer went out from the Notre Dame staff. This time the recipient was Travis Waller from Servite High School in Anaheim, California.
Blessed to receive an offer from Notre Dame! #goirish pic.twitter.com/65uk6QAQF0
— Travis Waller (@traviswaller11) June 5, 2014
Waller, like Stidham, is a 4-star prospect, on most services top 100 lists, and ranks as 247's #2 dual threat quarterback. Waller is currently uncommitted but holds offers from Alabama, Cal, Northwestern, Tennessee, and Penn State.
There is also some chatter on Twitter this evening that the Irish are close to offering 4-star Deondre Francois. Francois, a Florida native, holds an impressive list of offers from Florida State, Auburn, Oregon, Florida, Clemson, LSU, and Ohio State among others. 247 ranks Francois as their #8 dual threat quarterback.
There will likely be more names that pop up as the staff moves forward, but these are three names that have been linked to Notre Dame so far.
A couple things are clear here. The Notre Dame staff has regrouped quickly and is being aggressive in targeting another quarterback in this class. It's also clear they are only interested in adding a dual threat quarterback with all three recruits linked to Notre Dame so far being dual threat QBs.
It's also important to note here that the Notre Dame staff has done an outstanding job so far. Considering how fast they have moved, it looks like they had done their homework and were well prepared. They are not in a position that any staff wants to be in, but they are moving forward and being aggressive.
Before anyone gets on the staff for not actively recruiting any of these other quarterbacks while Barnett was committed, they did exactly what you have to do when you have an elite quarterback seemingly locked up – you stop recruiting at the position because you have to. At other positions you can keep in touch with your backup plans, but not at quarterback. That actually should help them in making up ground since it shows the other quarterbacks that this staff has the loyalty to stop recruiting the position when they have their guy.
Notre Dame has more depth at quarterback than it's had in 20 years
The last point to make here is that Notre Dame has enough depth at quarterback that if they are unable to haul in another elite prospect to replace Barnett they could in theory afford to skip the position for this class. Both Malik Zaire and Deshone Kizer have 4 years of eligibility left heading into 2014. With that kind of depth, Notre Dame can still be a little bit picky here.
In fact, Notre Dame hasn't had this much depth at quarterback in a long, long time. There have been too many years recently where Notre Dame has barely had a backup quarterback, let alone a full depth chart of quarterbacks like they do in 2014 with Golson, Zaire, and Kizer.
All three of the recruits linked to Notre Dame would all be considered elite prospects. Should Notre Dame swing and miss with this round of offers, they could wait and see if there are any late risers at quarterback this fall – ala Golson in the class of 2011 – who may warrant an offer or they could choose to wait and put on the full court press for an elite quarterback in the class of 2016. The depth Kelly and staff have built have afforded them that luxury.
Notre Dame would have loved for Barnett to return from Eugene this weekend and reaffirm his commitment, but that didn't happen unfortunately. Now they must move forward and not waste any time feeling sorry for themselves. All indications are that they are doing just that. They are aiming high and aggressively pursuing another elite quarterback for the class of 2015. Now we just have to wait and see how the chips fall.

I'm glad he decommmitted early. This way ND can get a QB. I'm not worried
bj commented on June 6th, 2014 at 6:52 am
did they offer him a corvette?
Michael the Archangel commented on June 6th, 2014 at 8:28 am
With Everett here potentially two more years, and Malik here at least three more years,
I'm not surprised Barnett bailed. Certain locations' weather and other physical factors trump South Bend.
More significantly, stockpiling talent as we have at every position
will scare away others as well who might feel they have a birthright in arriving on campus
one day and being celebrated as "the" man the next.The RKGs that will continue to come to ND because
ND, not just the team and the facilities, is what attracts and keeps them (see: Louis Nix and Manti Te'o)
feeling ND is where they belong and want to be.There are enough eligible elites out there to recruit that those considerations will keep our incoming classes among the elite. It's become commonplace that early elite commits end up somewhere else with all the attention
paid (did I say paid) to them.
Good luck, Blake.
As ND, we're more than ready to move on.[Reply]
Shazamrock commented on June 6th, 2014 at 9:45 am
As far as recruiting top QB's go, I think the next couple of years with Golson, Zaire, and Kinzer at the helm will be crucial.
If the ND offense can function as designed, and with the type of players that have been assembled, the offensive numbers that can be put up by the
QB's will soar.A good running game behind a powerful O-Line will help take some of the pressure off the QB and open up play action passing.
A diverse receiving corps that blends size, speed, and depth, will spread the field, offer more viable options for the QB's in the passing game, and
provide more and better running lanes should the QB need to pull the ball down and take off.Good QB coaching and development will allow these players to make the right decisions, execute properly, and excel in their proficiency.
Once these things start happing on a consistent basis, top high school QB's will be beating a path to ND wanting to play in their system.
ND will then have the pick of the litter in duel threat QB's, much like they once did with pro style QB's.
Or so the theory goes.
Storespook commented on June 6th, 2014 at 4:54 pm
I agree with Jack. I am glad Barnett did it now versus later in the process. Unfortunately, de-commits will continue to happen and it will work both ways for ND where we may lose or pick up a gain. Once the anticipated offense starts to take shape here, starting this fall, I believe we will have a system that elite QB's will want to come play for and I think 2014 will be looked back on as the starting point where our offense will be equated with many of the top O's out there now. Sustained success breeds more success and I think we are moving that way.
Go Irish

Oregon over ND….that is amusing. Good luck with that Blake.
The Servite kid hopefully will seize the huge opportunity!

I was never enamored with Barrett. I've never seen him (not even game-tapes) but just going on appearances, he reminds me of Jimmy Clausen. His early de-commitment is at least nothing "anti-Notre Dame," but he never rubbed-me-the-RIGHT-way. I feel Oregon is a good choice for him. Judging by / no. It's not fair to judge a personal decision. But it just seemed he doesn't have "big-time" potential. Jimmy Clausen DID have "big-time" potential, but 1) he was more worried about being "big-time" than developing and realizing his potential, and 2) he was a "big-time" recruit by Charlie Weis. Notre Dame Nation was bowing to Weis in the early 2000's after his success with the Patriots. (I live 15-min from Foxboro, MA) So Weis & Clausen had skyrocketing expectations. We know painfully the outcomes of Weis & Clausen. I guess that's a long way of saying Blake Barrett just wasn't a ND-RKG. Good riddance and good luck.
bj commented on June 7th, 2014 at 10:07 am
i would love to hear your thoughts on clausen at nd? thanks
Toulmin H. Brown commented on June 7th, 2014 at 12:31 pm
He is a fool along with anyone who thinks or is subsidized into believing that leaving Notre Dame is an act of virtue, wisdom or beneficial to a future NFL athlete.
bj commented on June 8th, 2014 at 7:44 am
anyone who does not understand nd, is not the guy you want in the red zone or in a goal line stand, what always made us great was that you did something special in a sacred place at a critical moment in time, whether you were joe montana or rudy, however, i am still concerned that the kid thought oregon offered a more secure offensive future, i cant argue with that, kelly did not hire a national championship calibre offensive coordinator, nor has he proven the ability to develop an explosive offense during his tenure here, oregon has had the best offense on the planet, he wasnt lured away, kelly lost him. this happened when he talked to the eagles, he should read tom hopkins, how to master the art of selling, however, i have seen with this regional camp idea that he finally gets the message, if you want to be the best you have to do extraordinary things.
"A man can be as great as he wants to be. If you believe in yourself and have the courage, the determination, the dedication, the competitive drive, and if you are willing to sacrifice the little things in life and pay the price for the things that are worthwhile, it can be done." vince lombardi
brandon commented on June 8th, 2014 at 8:37 pm
I'm not angry at him for not coming, but I wish he was. I actually think he's going to be very good, but I understand his decision. He probably wouldn't start until his Junior season at best anyways. He goes to Oregon and probably starts right away or sophomore season, plus it's still a spread offense. I'm not worried, we'll be ok. Good luck to the kid.

Today was going to be a good day! You were driving over to Russia's house to visit Lithuania. He had been your best friend for ages. Him, you and Poland were a dynamic trio. Poland loved taking you shopping and dressing you up, meanwhile, Lithuania would carry the bags. Poland also knew your deepest secret
you had a crush on Lithuania.
You pulled up to Russia's huge manor and parked the car. You opened the door to get out, but you didn't see where your hand was. That's right, you slammed the door on your hand and fingers.
"OWWW!!!" you hollered in pain and pried the door open to retrieve your injured hand.
You examined your injuries. Several fingers were swollen, bloody and throbbing in pain. A few nails on certain fingers were cracked and purple. Your hand's palm had a painful red mark across it where it had met your door.
You tightly clutched your bloody hand and knocked on the door with your good hand.
"Hi (y/n), WHAT HAPPENED!!??" Latvia looked down and saw your hand.
"I accidentally slammed my hand in the car door" you rubbed the back of your neck sheepishly.
"Toris!!" Latvia held onto your good hand and dragged you into the kitchen.
"Raivis, what is it? Oh my goodness!!" Lithuania gasped when Raivis showed him your hand.
"she accidentally slammed it in her car door" he explained
"We need to get that bandaged!" Lithuania gently led you to the kitchen table and pulled out a first aid kit. He gently began cleaning the blood off. It stung painfully but you bit your lip as tears came down. He wrapped your fingers and hands up before carefully testing each finger to see if it was broken. Your thumb, index, and ring finger were broken. He slid a little metal finger cast on each digit. He looked up and noticed you crying.
"Hey, no need for tears" he murmured and brushed your cheeks to rid them of the salty water.
"It just hurts is all. Now I can't write or pick anything up" you muttered, you injured the hand you used to write with, and sad to say, you were not ambidextrous.
"It's ok. This should heal in a few months" he added
"But what'll I do? I can't pick up anything or drive home, or," Lithuania cut you off by patting your head and gently ruffling your (h/l) (h/c) hair.
"I can take care of you. I'll be your hands" he murmured and smiled
"Thank you Toris, but I don't want to be a burden" you explained
"Trust me, (y/n), you are most certainly no burden to me. You're my best friend, we stick together and have each other's backs. Right?" he asked and you smiled and nodded.
"I'm home! Oh, привет (y/n)! What happened to you?" Russia greeted and looked at your bandaged and casted hand.
"I accidentally slammed my car door on it" you blushed and felt stupid for your mistake.
"Ouch, I hope you will get better" Russia smiled and patted you on the back.
"Is it ok if she stays here, Mr. Russia? She can't drive home, and if she went home she'd have trouble around her house" Lithuania asked and looked up at the taller nation
"Da, of course she can. Stay as long as you need to" Russia smiled, Russia wasn't a bad guy, he was just misunderstood because of his cruel child-like nature. He only irritated you when he would vent his anger or boredom out on the Baltics.
Lithuania took care of you delicately for the past few months. He would carry things for you, open doors for you, even fed you when you had difficulty gripping a fork or spoon because of your hand.
Finally you were hoping to get the bandages off today. Toris gently unwrapped them. There were scars and bruises, but nothing serious. Your broken fingers had healed nicely and you could move and clench your hand into a fist.
"I believe you're all healed now" Lithuania smiled at you and tossed away the bandages and wraps. You leaned over and hugged him tightly.
"Thank you so much Toris, you took such great care of me" you murmured and savored the hug.
"It was no trouble at all (y/n)" he chuckled
.I'm going to miss be able to spend so much time with you" you mumbled into his shoulder.
Lithuania gripped your shoulders and pulled out of the hug. His green eyes met your (e/c) ones.
"(y/n), I'm going to miss you too. You see
.I love you!" he blurted out and blushed
"I love you (y/n)! That's why I enjoyed taking care of you! I loved being helpful to you and having you around here with me. Please don't feel weird because of this
.if you don't feel the same. I don't want our friendship to be awkward or destroyed because of it. I want to take care of you always" he murmured and blushed darker and turned his head to avoid your gaze.
.I love you too!" you giggled and he turned his head to see if you were lying or not. Your hand pressed against his cheek and you pressed your lips against his. He stiffened for a second, then sighed happily and kissed back. His arms went around your waist and your hand stayed on his cheek while the other rested on his chest.
Toris' heart felt like it was going to burst with joy. The love of his life felt the same way about him as he did for her.
"Now that you're hands better," Toris slipped a ring on your finger carefully.
"Engaged when we start dating? Isn't that a little early?" you asked
"It's a trick ring, shows other men that you're mine and it's a way of asking, promise me you'll marry me someday?" he asked
You rolled your eyes and yanked on his shirt and kissed him again.
"I wouldn't be kissing you and telling you I love you when I'm not willing to marry you" you muttered and pecked his cheek.
"Shh! Latvia"
"Eduard, you're on my foot!!" two voices quietly bickered. No doubt Estonia and Latvia were spying around the corner of the kitchen.
"No, no you two. Let Lithuania and (y/n) become one in peace!" Russia chuckled and the two began pleading and begging while a faint 'kolkolkol' could be heard as the voices grew more distant.
"You do know we'll have to tell Poland, right?" you asked and Toris froze where he stood.
"I forgot
oh no!" he sighed
"What?" you asked
"He'll see the ring and drag you to a dress shop to get you a wedding dress!" Toris added
"Maybe he can wait a bit before we give him the news
" you giggled and kissed Toris' jaw.
"More time for us" he chuckled and gently kissed the back of your hand. He kissed each finger as his kisses trailed up your arm, shoulder and neck before meeting your lips.
"I will always take care of you" he chimed into the kiss and held you close to him.

Just found out today the new M&P Shield out for sale today. Saw a website selling it for $385 (MSRP $449) an hour ago. Then i watched some youtube vids about it, kinda impressed. Thinner and looks better than my Glock 26. Damn! . Then somehow the video made me want to buy it. I never like or ever interested in M&P models (sorry folks, no offense) but this Shield changed my mind. Right away i looked back to the website selling it.. wow they are sold out already! Tomorrow i'm going to visit my local gun stores to see & feel it in person. Any opinions on this gun? How is S&W guns overall performance, reliability, durability or customer service in overall anyway?

S&W always has been considered one of the standard bearers in firearms. The M&P line has been growing in desirability by law enforcement along with the general public. Reliability is very good overall and they always back their products. The Shield is a welcome addition to the line as smaller concealable semis are a large segment of the market today. The selections are just getting better and better. The price you saw is likely what an average discount price will be with the MSRP of $449.
The reliability and durability of my m&p 9mm has been outstanding so far. Ive run whatever ammo was available at the shop and it's eaten everything I've fed it. As far as customer service, I couldn't comment on that as I've never had any issues. But I've read that they are very good and will handle any issues you may even years down the road. I was impressed enough with the m&p, to go out and buy the m&p ar-15 psx with confidence. Love that one too!
Saw some available on-line yesterday morning and jumped in. Picking mine up Monday. My M&P9c is such a fantastic gun for me, I didn't need to wait till they were in stock to decide. Glad I didn't wait. The entire stock was gone by noon yesterday. I think they are going to be tough to find for a while. s&W supposedly had 8000 ready for the rollout on Thursday. But I can't find them available anywhere on-line now.
9 mm or .40? Looks too small for ..40
Available for both calibers
hope they put out .500 version but I'll settle for .45
My pistols, however, I always kept by me. Jesse James

Well, if the President is serious about his commitment to equality, as he mentioned in his inaugural address ("Our journey is not complete until our gay brothers and sisters are treated like anyone else under the law"), he may want to take a look at that non-discrimination executive order again. After all, Ashley Furniture is a federal contractor and would have to stop this behavior right quick if he signed it.

Kelly Rowland - Commander
Commander Kelly Rowland
Listen to Kelly Rowland's new song Commander, which was released on Wednesday, April 28th, 2010.
Give Commander a spin - it's a new offering from Kelly Rowland. It was dropped on Wednesday, April 28th, 2010. Kelly Rowland's rap artistry continues to improve with every release, something which is most definitely evidenced on Commander. His ever-expanding catalogue is definitely better for it, and we're looking forward to the next piece of the puzzle - aren't you?
Hear more of Kelly Rowland on On & On. If you're down, make sure to visit Kelly Rowland's profile page for the newest info, news, songs, and mixtapes.

- World Cup betting
Lampard to bow out in style at 7/1
ESPN staff
June 24, 2014
England head into Tuesday's meaningless World Cup Group D match with Costa Rica with only pride left to play for.
Roy Hodgson has made nine changes for the match, with Frank Lampard named captain for what could be his final bow in an England shirt.
And William Hill are offering a headline price of 7/1 on the midfielder scoring first and England to take all three points.
Not backing England? Joel Campbell to open the scoring and Costa Rica to end the group with a 100% record can be taken at 6/1.

BlackAnthem, Mike, I just picked up an used 120SR w/ HP6DSM BSR last night from a local seller. Since then I've read about the same DIP sw configuration as Mike has described. Mine were set differently though. It binds and flys with my 120SR, and the seller suggested that I take a picture of it and keep it in a safe place, in case I messed up the switches and have to go back. They are UP for 3,5,7 and DOWN for the rest. I couldn't begin to tell you why, but the seller seemed to know what he was talking about. I leaving them there until I know more about what they do. You experts out there could chime in and let me know what's going on.
Also, I don't think I'm using the 5th channel. The seller told me to leave it at the 12 o'clock position. Otherwise, everything is as Mike has described. What is the DC input port on the left side for? |
Sep 16, 2011, 11:50 AM | |
Well folks, as you know BattleDude (Kyle) gave me his HP6DSM TX as a gift that is SOOOO awesome, I promised Kyle I would give back. I first asked BlackAnthem because of the most awesome work he does for our troops and their families (BlackAnthem.com). Craig, a BIG salute to you Bro. Unfortunately, a stock TX is not quite the thing to put into a care package for our troops. What was I thinking
So, for all you Guys and Gals I have a stock TX (MLP4DSM) that I had my mcX and 120SR bound to is up for grabs. It is in perfect condition as I take care of my stuff and I will ship it anywhere within the CONUS. All I ask is that it goes to someone who really needs it so, please, no hoarders. Hoping you all have a great day, Mike. |

(Nickel Metal-Hydride) Not a Lipo, unless Lipo's are available for this application? That is a charging port. Fella's, dont plug a charger into it unless you have those batts in the TX. BD |
Sep 16, 2011, 12:40 PM | ||
Sorry Guys!! Thanks for the heads up Kyle Mike |
Sep 16, 2011, 01:35 PM | ||
If it's not too much trouble, when you find the time, break out the cables you got with your charger and see what you come up with. This is getting interesting. It would really be nice just to plug up and charge after a few uses, rather than wait an entire day/night just to charge 4 batts in my 4 port charger. Mike. |
Sep 16, 2011, 01:39 PM | |
I could be all wet, but if I'm reading Mr. Salt right, the 5th channel on the SR 120 works like a dual rate - in the "Off" position, cyclic servo travel is 100% while in the "On" position, servo travel is reduced. He strongly recommends leaving the 5th channel "On" (reducing the servo travel) to prevent the anti-rotation pin from bottoming out against the guide; this could cause the servos to stall.
Sep 16, 2011, 01:59 PM | |
I thought about the scenario where the DC input is for charging the rechargeable AA inside the Tx. But is it not a bad idea to use rechargeable in these radios? Most rechargeables are 1.2v. 4x fully charged ones are 4.8v. The HP6DSM will sound an alarm below 4.5v. So, there is very little room to work with. I couldn't find anything regarding that DC port. But if you want to read more about the other parts of the Tx, you'll find some info in the Blade SR manual.

The National Academy of Sciences is a private, nonprofit, self-perpetuating society of distinguished schol-
ars engaged in scientific and engineering research, dedicated to the furtherance of science and technology
and to their use for the general welfare. On the authority of the charter granted to it by the Congress in
1863, the Academy has a mandate that requires it to advise the federal government on scientific and techni-
cal matters. Dr. Bruce M. Alberts is president of the National Academy of Sciences.
The National Academy of Engineering was established in 1964, under the charter of the National Acad-
emy of Sciences, as a parallel organization of outstanding engineers. It is autonomous in its administration
and in the selection of its members, sharing with the National Academy of Sciences the responsibility for
advising the federal government. The National Academy of Engineering also sponsors engineering programs
aimed at meeting national needs, encourages education and research, and recognizes the superior achieve-
ments of engineers. Dr. William A. Wulf is president of the National Academy of Engineering.
The Institute of Medicine was established in 1970 by the National Academy of Sciences to secure the
services of eminent members of appropriate professions in the examination of policy matters pertaining
to the health of the public. The Institute acts under the responsibility given to the National Academy of
Sciences by its congressional charter to be an adviser to the federal government and, on its own initiative,
to identify issues of medical care, research, and education. Dr. Harvey V. Fineberg is president of the
Institute of Medicine.
The National Research Council was organized by the National Academy of Sciences in 1916 to associate
the broad community of science and technology with the Academy's purposes of furthering knowledge and
advising the federal government. Functioning in accordance with general policies determined by the Acad-
emy, the Council has become the principal operating agency of both the National Academy of Sciences
and the National Academy of Engineering in providing services to the government, the public, and the
scientific and engineering communities. The Council is administered jointly by both the Academies and
the Institute of Medicine. Dr. Bruce M. Alberts and Dr. William A. Wulf are chair and vice chair,
respectively, of the National Research Council.
The Transportation Research Board is a division of the National Research Council, which serves the
National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Engineering. The Board's mission is to promote
innovation and progress in transportation through research. In an objective and interdisciplinary setting,
the Board facilitates the sharing of information on transportation practice and policy by researchers and
practitioners; stimulates research and offers research management services that promote technical
excellence; provides expert advice on transportation policy and programs; and disseminates research
results broadly and encourages their implementation. The Board's varied activities annually engage more
than 5,000 engineers, scientists, and other transportation researchers and practitioners from the public and
private sectors and academia, all of whom contribute their expertise in the public interest. The program is
supported by state transportation departments, federal agencies including the component administrations of
the U.S. Department of Transportation, and other organizations and individuals interested in the
development of transportation. www.TRB.org

FOREWORD Highway administrators, engineers, and researchers often face problems for which infor-
By Staff mation already exists, either in documented form or as undocumented experience and prac-
Transportation tice. This information may be fragmented, scattered, and unevaluated. As a consequence,
Research Board full knowledge of what has been learned about a problem may not be brought to bear on its
solution. Costly research findings may go unused, valuable experience may be overlooked,
and due consideration may not be given to recommended practices for solving or alleviat-
ing the problem.
There is information on nearly every subject of concern to highway administrators and
engineers. Much of it derives from research or from the work of practitioners faced with
problems in their day-to-day work. To provide a systematic means for assembling and eval-

the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials--through the
mechanism of the National Cooperative Highway Research Program--authorized the
Transportation Research Board to undertake a continuing study. This study, NCHRP Proj-
ect 20-5, "Synthesis of Information Related to Highway Problems," searches out and syn-
thesizes useful knowledge from all available sources and prepares concise, documented
reports on specific topics. Reports from this endeavor constitute an NCHRP report series,
Synthesis of Highway Practice.
This synthesis series reports on current knowledge and practice, in a compact format,
without the detailed directions usually found in handbooks or design manuals. Each report
in the series provides a compendium of the best knowledge available on those measures
found to be the most successful in resolving specific problems.
PREFACE This synthesis focuses on the changes that occurred between 1994 and 2004 to practices
and strategies being used to control the impacts of winter weather on the safe and efficient
movement of traffic. Winter highway operations integrates snow and ice control strategies
and activities, traveler information, traffic operations, weather effects, environmental
impacts, incident management, and customer information. Winter weather is experienced
as snow and ice accumulation on pavement, fog and reduced visibility, rockslides, and high
winds throughout North America. This synthesis reports that experienced and well-trained
highway maintenance personnel are the most valuable resource in transportation agencies'
winter programs and targets as the intended audience frontline and mid-level supervisory
winter maintenance decision makers and planners in the United States.
Survey responses were received from 13 state departments of transportation, 6 Canadian
provinces, and 3 Canadian municipalities. The state of the practice was developed based on
these responses, capturing changes that have occurred at the planning, managing, and oper-
ations levels of winter highway operations.
A panel of experts in the subject area guided the work of organizing and evaluating the
collected data and reviewed the final synthesis report. A consultant was engaged to collect
and synthesize the information and to write the report. Both the consultant and the mem-
bers of the oversight panel are acknowledged on the title page. This synthesis is an imme-
diately useful document that records the practices that were acceptable within the limita-
tions of the knowledge available at the time of its preparation. As progress in research and
practice continues, new knowledge will be added to that now at hand.

U.S.' Emotional Sept. 11 Site
Reader's advisory: Wired News has been unable to confirm some sources for a number of stories written by this author. If you have any information about sources cited in this article, please send an e-mail to sourceinfo[AT]wired.com.
The State Department is hoping that a mix of new technology and old-fashioned emotion will help win the war against terrorism.
After the last World War and until recently, the U.S. government rarely included any emotional content in its press materials, knowing that public relations that pander to emotions are often dismissed as propaganda by the media and general public.
But the Office of International Information Programs' newest venture, a Web-based pictorial documenting life in New York City three months after the attacks, is unabashedly sentimental.
Photos of "Ground Zero" are presented along with the many memorials that still cover the city's streets and buildings. Interspersed with the heart-crunching photos are images of strength and survival -- of a collective life changed but continuing.
"Notice the focus on faces and on children," said photojournalist Steve Adams. "And the focus on Manhattan's multi-ethnic community. This is such an effective way of showing ... people who may think that New Yorkers are all crazed lunatics that people here are just people. Plus, people who aren't fluent in English can still get the point of the material."
Assuming, that is, that they have access to the Internet. Some foreign journalists have charged that the Office of International Information Programs (IIP) isn't developing ways to reach people who do not have access to computers or the Internet.
The IIP's stance is that journalists usually do have Internet access, and can access and then disseminate the information to their local communities.
The IIP is part of the Department of State, the lead U.S. foreign affairs agency. The IIP focuses on communicating U.S. foreign and domestic policy to an international audience, particularly the foreign press, government officials and general public.
According to a representative for the State Department, the IIP is increasingly using technology -- websites, multimedia presentations and electronic newsletters -- to get its message out.
But until recently, agency insiders say the IIP was careful to steer away from an emotional content in its presentations.
"They, as we all did, presented the facts in the very classical and boring news format as if any sign of pandering to peoples' emotions wasn't ethical," said Frank Crispin, a journalist who covered the Central European beat during the Cold War years.
Crispin said that after the Soviet Union dissolved and the Berlin wall came down, America also ceased most of its foreign public relations campaigns.
"The idea was that there wasn't much of a need to reach out and explain the United States anymore," Crispin said. "Military cutbacks were echoed by cutbacks in communications campaigns, too."
The IIP was created from what was left of the U.S. Information Agency when it merged with the Department of State on Oct. 1, 1999. The agency remained active but out of the limelight until recently.
But after the Sept. 11 attacks, the Bush administration decided to fight a new kind of war, a battle that included a public relations campaign.

Book provided by the publisher for review
Review originally posted at Romancing the Book
A new WW II romance from Jana Richards is always a treat, and this one is no exception. Set in Jana's home country of Canada, the story provides a nice look at life on a farm in the time period before and just after the war.
Anne Wakefield, almost literally left at the altar, is a gutsy heroine. The German blitz of London didn't stop her, and neither will this new and shocking turn of events. But she's brought a secret with her, and that may be more difficult to plow past.
Erik Gustafson, who should have been her brother-in-law, is solicitous of Anne's welfare from the beginning, but it's easy for the reader to know his concern will turn to love–and that he'll deny his feelings, as much to protect his self-esteem as to make sure he doesn't put Anne in an even more difficult position.
Needless to say, the course of true love doesn't run smooth, but it's the rocks that make the story more interesting. One just knows it will be happily-ever-after for everyone…one just isn't sure how the end result will come about.
All in all, Home Fires is a fun, worthwhile read, whether or not one is drawn to the war era. A couple of shall we say 'hot' love scenes came as a surprise as the action moved gently along, but the reviewer survived with a minimum of blushes.
Home Fires comes highly recommended. Read it. You'll like it.
Posted August 15, 2012
Great little story about a Canadian war bride, set in 1945. I wish it had been longer and fleshed out a bit more. 79 pages.

Top of camera controls (left)
Drive Mode Dial
Icon | Description |
Power Off Camera is powered off, any images still in the buffer will continue to be written out to the Compact Flash card. The top status LCD will show 'CF' to indicate that the Compact Flash card is still active. |
Single Drive Camera shoots in single drive mode, one depression of the shutter release results in one frame taken (assuming AF locks). |
Continuous Drive Camera shoots in continuous drive mode, camera shoots continuously while shutter release is held down as long as their is buffer space. This equates to approximately 1.9 fps at full resolution for up to 6 frames. If the buffer fills the camera will take the next shot when buffer space is available. |
Ten second self-timer After depressing the shutter release the camera will beep for ten seconds before taking the exposure. Countdown is displayed on the top status panel. |
Two second self-timer After depressing the shutter release the camera will beep for two seconds before taking the exposure. Countdown is displayed on the top status panel. |
Mirror lockup exposure After depressing the shutter release the mirror is raised, release and then a gentle half-press of the shutter release will take the final exposure. This allows you to reduce vibration transmitted through the camera body by the mirror when taking long exposures or macros. It would have been nice to have a combined Mirror lockup and two second self-timer option. |
Auto Bracketing After turning to this mode you can set the auto bracketing step to 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 or 3.0 EV. Turn back to a normal drive mode to take the automatically bracketed exposures. Use continuous drive mode and it will stop after the three bracketed exposures have been taken. |
Button | Description |
Metering mode Hold button and rotate command dial to select metering mode: 8-segment Evaluative Center Center-Weighted Average |
Function Press once to change remote control channel (1-3). Press again to enable / disable the camera beep. |
Auto Focus mode Hold button and rotate command dial to select auto focus mode: Single Servo AF (S) Continuous Servo AF (C) |
Resolution Hold button and rotate command dial to select image resolution, this results in smaller RAW files but obviously less resolution recorded: 2268 x 1512 (HI) 1512 x 1008 (MED) 1134 x 756 (LOW) |
ISO sensitivity Hold button and rotate command dial to select ISO sensitivity: ISO 100 ISO 200 ISO 400 |
Top of camera controls (right)
Exposure Mode Dial
There are four exposure modes available on the SD9 which can be quickly selected by turning the exposure mode dial.
Icon | Mode |
Program Auto Exposure (Shiftable) |
Aperture Priority Auto Exposure |
Shutter Priority Auto Exposure |
M | Full Manual Exposure In this mode you select the aperture and the shutter speed from any combination of the above (plus Bulb for shutter speed, apertures limited by the lens used). Half-press the shutter release and the meter on the viewfinder status bar and top LCD will reflect the exposure level compared to the calculated ideal exposure, if it's outside of +/- 3 EV the indicator bar will blink. |
Button | Description |
Auto-Exposure Lock Press and hold this button then half-press the shutter release to lock the exposure. The exposure can be locked for a single or multiple shots. |
Exposure Compensation Hold button and rotate the command dial to set an exposure compensation level. Compensation is available in half stop (0.5 EV) steps from -3 EV to +3 EV. |
It's a pity that shutter speed / aperture and exposure compensation can only be selected in half stop steps, most other digital SLR's provide third stop steps which can provide that little bit of additional control.

Sol Campbell to start as Arsenal face Spurs
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is backing Sol Campbell to cope with the hostile reception at White Hart Lane after confirming the defender will start against Tottenham. The 35-year-old former Spurs centre-half has played six Premier League matches and nine games in all since returning for a second spell with the Gunners. And he will take his place at the heart of the defence in the north London derby. Into the lions' den: Campbell (right) returns to White Hart Lane Wenger said: 'Sol has been a big support for me and the squad. He is very important in the dressing room because he is highly focused and highly motivated. 'Every time he has played he has turned in a very good performance. It is one of the good signings I have made. 'I have no concerns about him. He will play. I didn't imagine he would play as many games as he has. 'I thought he would play in one or two games maybe but he got those extra matches because he played well.' Campbell spent nine years with Spurs before his controversial switch to Arsenal in 2001.

Winfield issues rallying cry
Wycombe defender Dave Winfield has challenged his team-mates to raise their game in order to shutout Northampton this weekend.The Chairboys have kept clean sheets in both of their last two games but thanks mainly to goalkeeper Nikki Bull who has been in inspired form.Winfield said: "You can't expect your goalkeeper to get you out of trouble every time."You have to stop the shots and minimise their chances as much as you can."I am disappointed, personally, because they keep having more shots on goal than I would like to see. To keep clean sheets is our aim as a defence so we have to take the positives."But in all of our games there have been chances where the other teams could have scored and it is not good enough and we need to work on the training ground to sort it out before it costs us."

Reeling from paranoia after learning that Rena was eavesdropping on his conversation the previous night, Keiichi decides to take a sick leave and visits the clinic. On his way home, however, Ooishi offers to buy lunch - all the way over at Okinomiya. During their meal, Ooishi reveals that all the victims of the village curse are connected to Keiichi's circle of friends. Due to this, Ooishi thinks that Keiichi is in danger.
Later that night, Rena and Mion pay a visit to Keiichi, bringing with them a box of homemade ohagi as a gift. However, the gift comes with a warning - Keiichi's friends know what he is doing, and there is no way to hide it. When Keiichi takes a bite out of one ohagi later, he finds another warning in the form of a needle...
Determined not to be taken down without a fight, Keiichi jots down his current predicament on a note and hides it behind his clock. After nearly being knocked down in a hit-and-run, however, Keiichi decides to go on the offensive, arming himself with an unused bat that he finds in someone's locker.
After school, Keiichi immediately returns home without staying for club activities. Much to his annoyance, he finds himself tailed by Rena. Having yelled at to walk ahead of him, Rena instead pauses in front of him and asks why he is in possession of Satoshi's bat - while imitating every single of Satoshi's actions before his 'transfer.'
At night, Keiichi receives a call from his mother telling him that his parents would be out of town for a day. He proceeds to lock up. Shortly after, Ooishi calls in to check up on him. When Ooishi learns of the needle, he urges Keiichi to retrieve it to be used as evidence, but Keiichi could not locate the needle or the ohagi anywhere. When he informs Ooishi about the hit-and-run van, he realizes that he did not trace down the license plate number.
Just as he was telling Ooishi about Satoshi's 'transfer,' however, his doorbell begins to ring incessantly...
"Don't fear what's beyond tomorrow. Don't injure your heart. Don't apologize for everything that happened yesterday. When They Cry: Spirited Away by the Demon, Part Four - Distortions. Can you believe it?"
