by Buck Pomerantz Focal Power Performance (FPP) amplifiers give your music the clean, powerful boost it needs to sound its best. Their ultra-high frequency response reproduces all the harmonics and overtones that make vocals and instruments sound natural.4-channel versatilityYou can use FPP 4100 4-channel amp to drive two sets of speakers with 75 watts RMS each, or you can bridge it to 2-channel mode to send up to 240 watts RMS each to a pair of subs for high-quality bass fill. In 3-channel mode, you can bridge the rear channels to power a sub with 240 watts, while still driving your front speakers with 75 watts each. Whatever role this amp plays, Focal power will give you superior performance for your system.Superior designThe FPP 4100 sports a heavy aluminum chassis that disperses heat efficiently, so it runs cool even when you're pushing your system hard. This FPP amp also includes high-level inputs with signal-sensing, so you can hook one up to any receiver — even a factory stereo — without needing a separate turn-on lead. Focal includes a remote control that allows you to control your bass from the front seat.

Who needs an amp? You might think you don't need an amp because you have a 400-watt system in your car, or because your new stereo puts out 50 watts a channel. But those are peak wattage ratings, which may boil down to 15 or 20 watts per channel, using the more realistic RMS rating. An amp sends your speakers the power they need to deliver your music with clarity and impact, whether you're using factory speakers or high-performance components. And low-frequency reproduction requires lots of power, so an amp is an absolute must if you're adding a sub to your system.
Focal FPP 4100 Written By Mark A., Deerfield Beach, FL on Monday, March 31, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Excellent amplifier. I have been looking for a crisp, clean amplifier for my Z28 convertible and was recommended this unit by the Crutchfield advisor. Let me tell you.....This is awesome!!!!!! It makes my Focal speakers shine. The high are exceptional but not too bright, the mid-bass is fantastic. I am extremely impressed with this amp....You will be too. Pros: Sound quality Cons: None
High quality Written By Matt, Milwaukee, WI on Saturday, January 11, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I actually ended up returning the whole system as I was not satisfied by the sound quality and performance output. Because there are so many other components and factors, I am not sure of this amp was a contributing factor to the failure or not. So I am not sure what "star" rating to give it. It could have been many other things. I researched and tuned the system for a full week. Even though I spent a lot of money thinking I would get an extremely great sounding audio system, It did not sound all that much better than the factory bose system. At least not for what I paid. Pros: seems very well built and high quality
focal fpp 4100 Written By john walder, lynchburg va on Sunday, November 10, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Recently upgraded my car amp , 1. Clean & clear, without making the tweeters sounding too bright 2. Detailed mid bass. 3. Bass is now much more tight & punchy. Used to be kind of boomy earlier. 4. Supplied wired remote is quite responsive.
Focal FPP 4100 Written By AMP Boy, AZ on Saturday, May 04, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Sound and works great so far.
Focal FPP 4100 Written By Dusty, CA on Monday, December 24, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great amp. Running w/ an Alpine (117) HU and imprint; sound is amazing. Music is crisp and well defined with power to spare.
SQ king, cannot beat it for the money! Written By DerekF, Coeburn, VA on Wednesday, April 18, 2012 If you are reading this, you are on the right track. Crutchfield has this amp specified with 75x4 at 4 while the box and manual rate the minimum power at 90x4 at 4. This amp is aimed to please anyone with SQ in mind and at 240 x 2 at 2, you even have enough power to run two decent size woofers. The frequency response from 80 hz+ on my Focal's is INCREDIBLE. I have owned quite a few amps in my day and this is HANDS DOWN the best 4-channel amp I have ever heard. The crossover and filters are amazing to only have a 12db/octave. All my frequencies slowly roll off and sound much more like 24db/octave. Moreover, the HPF and LPF are fairly sensitive, but once you get it tuned correctly, WOW. The way this amp brings frequencies together makes you feel like you are in a recording studio. You won't beat this amp for the money, Guarnteed!! Pros: Sound Quality is unbelievable, runs moderately cool compared to most AB class amps, great power. Cons: None really, just wish it had 24db/oct to help out with the slopes.

The Orange had just six turnovers in the first half and put intense pressure on the Hoosiers with seven steals and five blocks.
Oladipo scored seven first-half points.
NOTES: Oladipo, a junior averaging 13.6 points, played in high school at DeMatha Catholic in Hyattsville, Md., just a few miles north of the Verizon Center. "I won a couple of city championships with DeMatha, won a couple of AAU championship games here, and there hasn't been a lot of hoopla," Oladipo told reporters Wednesday of playing at the Verizon Center. "My family has been fortunate to come out and watch me play because they live so close." ... Indiana reserve junior guard Maurice Creek is from Oxon Hill, Md. ... Syracuse freshman reserve Jerami Grant, son of former Washington Bullets player Harvey Grant, also played in high school at DeMatha Catholic.

Over time Creed Neroli Sauvage has become my favorite Creed scent. It's always clean, always interesting. I like it more than Green Irish Tweed. It will last throughout the day or night. The dry down is the cleanest of all the Creed scents I've tried.

Written by Rebecca Memphis,TN on January 31, 2007
Read Review details ►I am unsure why this is classified as a "women's" fragrance because orange blossom (neroli) is an ingredient in many fragrances for men. This is a crisp, clean, unique fragrance which is unlike any other, which is precisely why I wear this. Perfect for the office, evening or weekends. Absolutely Sublime.

Professor Samuel Oak is a Pokémon Professor who resides in Pallet Town.
Red, Blue, Green and YellowEdit
In Red and Blue, Green, Professor Oak lives in Pallet Town and he is absent from his lab until you try to leave town, when he runs up to you and makes you come with him. He then lets you choose a Starter Pokémon. If you go to the mart, the store clerk will give you Oak's Parcel. The Parcel contains a prototype Poké Ball, bring it back to Oak and he will give a Pokédex to you along with 5 Poké Balls. He sends you on your journey and all throughout he helps you by sending his aides out to give you items if you capture the right amount of Pokémon. In Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, he helps you when your rival challenges you for the first time.In Yellow, when the player steps into the grass they will encounter a Pikachu, which Oak captures and gives to you after your rival takes the Eevee that was intended for the player.
FireRed and LeafGreenEdit
In FireRed and Leafgreen, his role is similar to that of it's originals.
Diamond, Pearl and PlatinumEdit
In Diamond and Pearl, after you see each Pokémon in your Sinnoh Pokédex, Professor Oak will come and hand you the National Pokédex. He resides in the most southerly house in Eterna.
HeartGold and SoulSilverEdit
In HeartGold and SoulSilver after beating the Elite 4 for the first time you will be able to receive the National Dex from him. Also after defeating all of the Johto and Kanto gym leaders he will give the trainer the HM08 Rockclimb.
- Main article: Professor Oak (Adventures)
Just like in the games, he is highly regarded and known, he is the person who gives Pokédexes to the Pokédex Holders. His grandson is Blue. In Pokémon Electric Tale of Pikachu, his Charmeleon, named Char, evolved into Charizard.

In Yellow, Professor Oak was going to be a person that would battle you after you beat the champion. He would have a Tauros, Exeggutor, Gyarados, Arcanine and the starter that opposes your starter Pokémon at its final form. It was cut from the game and it can only be accessed through hacking or glitches.

Puerto Rico Juvenile Boot Camp
Are you scouring the internet for a problem teen boot camp in Puerto Rico that will transform your teen into a well balanced successful individual? You may suppose you want to place your teen in a boot camp in Puerto Rico, however, there are many factors that need to be considered before sending your teen to a boot camp. We will help you locate a boot camp which will be best for helping teens from Puerto Rico change their lives. We can help you find the correct place for your teen to stabilize and learn the steps for successful relationships with others.
First, Take our Teen Quiz for Parents to Determine Your Teen's Needs
In order to help you find the best solution for your teen, it would help if you took the rate your teen quiz. That way we will be able to understand your teen's needs better.
Fill out the form below and we will help you find the best boot camp for your teen:
Our youth are Powerfully Influenced by their Peers: We Take Advantage of That
Frequently as juveniles in Puerto Rico struggle through the storms of adolescence they become entangled in a captivating sub culture of negative peer involvement. The teen's feelings of need for acceptance causes them to make poor decisions based on their peers coaxing. We use Positive Peer Culture which assigns teens the duty of helping each other. We teach them to have values instead of just forcing them to obey specific rules. Our youth will only be as responsible as we expect them to be, so we expect great things from the teens in our program.
Frequently it is necessary to remove them from their present location in order to break the negative cycle in which they find themselves.
Other reason's for not keeping a defiant teen in the same area in which they have struggled are:
- Greater desire to run away from location
- Negative peers may attempt to frequent location of placement
- Availability of dangerous resources such as drugs, if a student were able to leave the facility in which they were placed
White River Academy provides a safe therapeutic boot camp in Delta, Utah far from the negative influences which may be trapping your child in harmful cycles. Please keep an open mind as you consider the most appropriate and effective choice for your child. You may learn more about White River Academy by clicking here.

Hi guys,
I am in the beginning stages of my first rc submarine project, an OTW Type VII.
I have read and re-read many times the articles by both Jeff LaRue and Don Prince.
I am sure there have been many more who have successfully built this boat so I was hoping I could get some feedback/picutes as to how you handeled the decking attachment, allowing for retrieval of the WTC.
I am using OTW's WTC so this is the first hugh hurdle I have to address.
Once I have gotten this project far enough to show developments, I plan to do a build thread.
I am sure most of you will be amused (to the point of laughter) so maybe we can have fun together.
I welcome any and all feedback.

Jared Fuchs
Comfy but a question of quality
I am super happy with this saddle's comfort and pain reducing on my backside... but the first thing I noticed when this saddle arrived was that 2 staples holding the leather attached to the bottom of the seat were already close to coming out.
A couple weeks later and I've already lost one and the other is close to falling out as well. At least I got it for $32 off Chainlove. It's a super comfortable saddle and I'm hoping the loss of these staples won't affect that.
Jared Fuchs
I wrecked pretty good about a month ago and this saddle came off of the rails, bummer. I'm gonna talk to WTB about it and see if they can help me out. It's been very comfortable still that point.

Britney Looking Fit & Fabulous On The Cover Of 'Women's Health'
Britney is looking absolutely fantastic, and she's showing the world in the January/February 2015 issue of Women's Health. In the interview, she opened up about her diet habits, fitness routine (dancing and swimming laps with NO personal trainer!) and what motivates her to stay fit. "After I had Jayden, it was real easy for me to get back in shape," she revealed. "But five years later, I started noticing changes in my body. My hips are a little bit wider because I've had kids. So it was crucial for me to be continuous with my exercise."

Vote Britney For Do Something's Celebs Gone Good 2014
It's no wonder so many of her fans have dubbed her Godney — Britney is pretty much a saint. From dedicating her birthday to charities that are near and dear to her heart (last year she devoted her time to St. Jude's kids and this year she was all about the Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation) to regularly raising awareness through social media about causes she deeply cares about, Britney is one selfless individual. So it's no surprise that DoSomething.org has nominated Britney for their 2014 Celebs Gone Good list.
Britney Spends Day At The Beach With Her Boys
Brit Brit's keeping busy before the next round of Piece of Me shows kick off later this month, spending time at the beach with her kiddos and her new boyfriend, Charlie Ebersol. So sweet! She posted a couple of Instagram videos of their outing, including the below:
Give The Gift Of 'Intimate Britney Spears' This Holiday
Britney recently posted a sultry new Intimate Britney promo for her vintage-inspired Buttercup collection, which reminds me — it's almost BRITmas, you guys! Check out the ad below and consider adding a few lingerie items to your Christmas list. I already received my Ameryllis chemise and Clementine shorts — they're absolutely gorgeous and true to size. And the packaging is beautiful; it makes for a great gift.
Folks All Over The World Wish Britney a Happy 33rd Birthday
Happy 33rd birthday, Britney! While Britney doesn't want gifts for her birthday this year (except for THIS!), that didn't stop the Britney Army from wishing our girl the happiest of birthdays. I celebrated by dancing in my Intimate Britney skivvies while listening to Britney Jean on repeat. Oh, and by stalking #HappyBirthdayBritney messages from y'all. A few of my fave shout-outs from the queen's ever-loyal fan base, along with some media luv:

To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
Nikon's mid-term revision to their flagship full-frame D4 series camera includes an updated 16-Mpix CMOS sensor and the new Expeed 4 processor amongst a raft of other, mostly subtle refinements. Read on to find out how the new top-of-the-range model performs. |
The zoom range 70-200, or thereabout, is one of the real classic lenses, an absolute "must" for sports and photojournalism. The faster the maximum aperture the better, but most important of all it must be a good performer. Tamron's SP 70-200mm f2.8 Di VC USD has the right specifications and a price tag that is very attractive, especially when you see how good it is. |
Introduced in November 2012 as the proposed 'kit' lens for the EOS 6D, the EF 24-70mm f/4L IS USM lens represents an interesting move for Canon – despite two well respected lenses in this category, the EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM and the EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM, the EF 24-70mm f/4L IS USM hopes to offer a compact, lightweight lens suitable for the newly created lightweight, full-frame camera segment. The red L-series band offers the promise of professional performance, but does it live up to the expectations? |
Introduced in February 2012, the EF24-70mm f/2.8L II USM is the long-awaited update to Canon's pro-grade standard zoom and replaces the highly regarded EF24-70mm f/2.8L USM. Designed with the objective of improving image quality and providing greater durability for daily use with digital cameras, it has a completely revised optical design as well as an enhanced mechanical construction. As full-frame lens, it's compatible with the firm's full range of DSLRs including 1.6 (APS-C) and older APS-H (1.3x crop) DSLRs making it an attractive choice to a wide of range users. However, at around $2,500 it's not likely to be a casual purchase. |
Adding a new line to the Canon EOS range, the EOS 6D is a fusion of the EOS 7D and the EOS 5D Mark III, that also includes some trickle down technology from the EOS-1D X. How does the EOS 6D fare against its competitors and more illustrious stable mates? Our tests reveal the answer. |
By replacing two predecessors with the Canon EOS-1D X, its new flagship professional DSLR, Canon hopes to deliver both the top-notch image quality of the studio-oriented Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III and the superfast performance of the Canon EOS 1D Mark IV sports shooter. A compromise of sorts between speed and image quality, the 1D X manages to deliver enough improvements to satisfy both markets. |
The EOS 1D X is the new flagship camera announced at the top of Canon's professional range of DSLRs. It will have the difficult task to replace both the sport-specialized, fast 1D series and the studio-oriented, high resolution 1DS series. |
In the course of the past several weeks, both Canon and Nikon unveiled their professional digital reflex cameras for the next two years to come. With the D4, Nikon has updated a number of points in its pro camera body which cumulatively lead to an entirely new generation of SLR camera. |
Three-and-a-half years after the release of the full-frame reflex EOS 5D Mark II, Canon finally unveils its successor, the EOS 5D Mark III, a reflex camera that takes several significant qualitative and functional leaps forward by borrowing the latest must-haves in photo technology from the EOS 7D and the EOS-1D X. |
The Sigma APO MACRO 150mm F2.8 EX DG OS HSM is a large-aperture macro-telephoto lens that integrates Sigma's Optical Stabilizer (OS) system. This 2010 successor to the APO MACRO 150mm F2.8 EX DG HSM, which came on the market in October 2004, incorporates the latest innovations in optics technology. |
After months of rumors swirling about, today Canon finally launched its new flagship DSLR: the Canon EOS 1D X. This new camera will replace not just the EOS 1Ds but also all EOS 1D current models... and will bring the APS-H sensor size to an end. |

Sports TV: Under Review – Cowboys, Lions & Admiral Ackbar
A few thoughts about this weekend's sports on TV:
A tale of two games: The first Sunday of the NFL's Week 1 has two games with officials deciding the outcome — Dallas-Washington and Detroit-Chicago.
One ending was obvious and the other was a head-scratcher.

Peter Lynch is recognized by investors the world over. More than 1 million read his book OneUp on Wall Street -- or, at least, that many bought it. Sadly, many seem to have either disregarded or forgotten the book's tenets for finding great investments.
And that's a shame. After all, the greatest of these investments -- in his words, the "10- to 40-baggers ... even 200-baggers" -- can rise 10 to 200 times in value.
I haven't forgotten. A "student" of Lynch for years, I don't deny that what I've learned has influenced the way I invest. Nor that, when we conceived of our Motley Fool Hidden Gems newsletter service and online community, digging up just a few of these "10- to 40-baggers" was very much on our minds.
It might be worthwhile, then, to take a look at six of his primary principles, all of which are core components to our Hidden Gems investing approach. I strongly encourage you to consider them when building or fine-tuning your own stock portfolio.
1. Small companies
Lynch loves emerging businesses with strong balance sheets, and so do I. His extraordinary returns in La Quinta Inns came at a time when the company was young and small, traded at a discount to estimated future growth, and sported a healthy balance sheet. Why did he veer away from larger franchises such as Hilton Hotels (NYSE: HLT ) and Marriott International (NYSE: MAR ) in favor of the promising upstart? He writes, "Big companies don't have big stock moves ... you'll get your biggest moves in smaller companies."
Couldn't have said it better myself. When searching for prospects, I focus explicitly on strong, well-run companies capitalized under $2 billion.
2. Fast growers
Among Lynch's favorites are companies whose sales and earnings are expanding 20%-30% per year. The classic Lynch play over the past decade might be Starbucks (Nasdaq: SBUX ) , which has consistently grown sales and earnings at superior rates. The company has a sterling balance sheet and generates substantial earnings by selling an addictive product, repurchased every day at a premium by its loyal customers.
The real trick is to find fast growers, such as Starbucks, in their early stages. At the same time, don't shy away from a slower-growth business selling at a truly great price. Hidden Gems can take either form.
3. Dull names, dull products, dead industry
You might not think this of the world's greatest -- and, arguably, most famous -- mutual fund manager, but Lynch absolutely loved dreary, colorless businesses in stagnant or declining industries. A company such as Masco (NYSE: MAS ) , which developed the single-handle ball faucet (yawn), rose more than 1,300 times in value from 1958 to 1987.
And if he could find that kind of business with a ridiculous name, like Pep Boys (NYSE: PBY ) , all the better. No self-respecting Wall Street broker could recommend such an absurdly named unknown to his key clients. And that left the greatest money managers an opportunity to scoop up a truly solid business at a deep discount.
4. Wall Street doesn't care
Lynch's dream stock at Fidelity Magellan was one that hadn't yet attracted any attention from Wall Street. No analysts covered the business, which was less than 20% institutionally owned. None of the big money cared. Toys "R" Us -- though it might not be so great an investment today -- after being spun out from bankrupt parent Interstate Department Stores, went on in relative obscurity to rise more than 55 times in value.
And Lynch is effusive in explaining the wonderful returns from funeral and cemetery business Service Corporation, which had no analyst coverage (and still has very little).
The point is clear: Small, underfollowed companies present the greatest opportunities to long-term investors.
5. Insider buying and share buybacks
Lynch loves companies whose boards of directors and executive teams put their money where their mouths are. A combination of insider buying and aggressive share buybacks really piqued his interest. He would have given a close look to a tiny company like iPass (Nasdaq: IPAS ) , which has featured persistent insider buying recently, but also Colgate-Palmolive (NYSE: CL ) , which has been buying back its shares on the open market.
"Buying back shares," Lynch writes, "is the simplest, best way a company can reward its investors." Bingo.
6. Diversification
Finally, don't forget that Lynch typically owned more than 1,000 stocks at Fidelity Magellan. He embraced diversification and focused his attention on upstart businesses with excellent earnings, sound balance sheets, and little to no Wall Street coverage. He admits that, going in, he never knew which of his investments would rise five or 10 times in value. But the greatest of his investments took three to four years to reward him with smashing returns.
Personally, I anticipate an average holding period of three years, with the greatest of the group being held for a decade or more. I believe you can and should run a broad, diversified portfolio of stocks, if you have the time and the team to do so -- like we do here at the Fool and within our Hidden Gems community.
Finding the next prospect
Peter Lynch created loads of millionaires with his Fidelity Magellan Fund -- investors who went on to live comfortably, send their kids to college, and give generously to deserving charities.
You might be surprised to hear that he thinks you can succeed at stock investing without giving your whole life over to financial statement analysis. He's outlined a method whereby the total research time to find a stock "equals a couple hours." And he doesn't think you need to check back on your stocks but once a quarter. Doing more than that might lead to needless hyperactive trading that wears down your portfolio with transaction costs and taxes.
Motley Fool Hidden Gems practices each and every one of these Lynchian precepts. If this is how you like to invest, I guarantee you'll love our newsletter service. Try it free for 30 days, and if you don't absolutely love it, you can cancel without paying a tin-lizzy nickel.
The next 10-bagger is out there. Good luck finding it!

Failure of the Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction to reach agreement on $1.2 trillion in cuts to federal spending triggered automatic cuts known as sequestration. Those cuts went into effect March 1, 2013, after Congress and the President failed to reach agreement on a plan to stop them. Agencies were then faced with the reality of trimming programs and furloughing employees to reduce their spending by the specified amount. Federal News Radio follows the latest on sequestration and its effects on the Defense Department, civilian agencies, and industry, as well as Congressional and White House action. If you have information on sequestration that you would like to share with Federal News Radio, please email us. And for the latest breaking news on sequestration, sign up for our Breaking News Email Alerts.
Defense Department Sequestration News
The Defense Department was hit hardest when sequestration took effect. Full-time employees were furloughed for six days and tens of thousands of temporary hires were let go. Sequestration also put a hold on maintenance projects, and research and development efforts within the various military services. Read all of Federal News Radio's articles on sequestration's impact on DoD.
Civilian Agency Sequestration News
Agencies were forced to cut at the program, project and activity levels when sequestration went into effect. Federal employees at civilian agencies were also forced to take up to seven days of furloughs. Read all of Federal News Radio's articles on sequestration's impact on civilian agencies.
Industry Sequestration News
In contrast to federal employees, who faced furloughs, many contractors encountered more elusive sequestration symptoms. Along with reduced government contract spending, sequestration also slowed down the overall procurement process, resulting in delays, contractors say. Read all of Federal News Radio's articles on sequestration's impact on industry.
Congressional, White House Action
How are President Barack Obama and members of Congress trying to lessen the effects of sequestration? Follow the latest deals reached on Capitol Hill.
Sequestration Tracker: Guide to agency furloughs
In the weeks leading up to the March 1 sequestration deadline, agencies across government painted increasingly dire pictures of life under sequestration. Along with hiring freezes, spending reductions, and curtailed travel and training, many agencies forecasted furloughs. Federal News Radio's Sequestration Tracker looks at how many furlough days feds were forced to take under the first year of sequestration.
Furlough Loans and Donations
The loss of pay due to furloughs was unpleasant for all federal employees. But, for some, the smaller paychecks were downright detrimental. The Federal Employee Education and Assistance Fund offered interest-free loans to federal employees in need to help them through the furloughs. Read all of Federal News Radio's articles on FEEA's efforts to help feds in need, including exclusive features on feds helped by the loans.

Step 4.3 . Specify your plan for reporting on the evaluation results.
As you think about the evaluation plan, it is important to think about the evaluation results and who will use them. For example, principals and other school leaders will be interested in learning about the extent to which the professional development appears to have paid off in terms of improved instruction and student outcomes. Central office staff and others will be interested in progress on improvement initiatives and the results for students. Finally, don't forget that evaluation results can be helpful in meeting reporting requirements and garnering support for professional development from external sources
Briefly describe the plan for reporting the evaluation results. (How will the results be presented? Will the results be accompanied by recommendations? Who will be the primary audience for the report?)

Many people and companies create Twitter pages for themselves to either advertise their product, share what they're doing and need to upload PDF to Twitter. This is why Twitter has blown up and become so popular that most celebrities have one and use it on a daily basis. However, there is one major flaw with Twitter that affects thousands of users. Twitter doesn't allow for you to upload PDF files onto their site, which can be a real bummer.
But there's a smart solution – www.Yumpu.com which makes it possible to convert any PDF into an ePaper which can be shared on Twitter, Facebook and Google Plus. Continue Reading

Originally written on
Football Nation
Last updated 11/20/14
In a quarterback driven league, the importance of finding the right quarterback is paramount to any franchise. Many teams use their highest draft pick on a quarterback in an effort to establish a face for their franchise and get their fans excited about the future. Over the last 15 seasons since 1998, a quarterback was selected with the first pick of the draft twelve times. Some of those draft picks lived up to those expectations, and many did not. Since coaches and GMs have a limited window to prove their worth and ability to field a winning team, that urgency trickles down to the players as well, most prominently the quarterbacks. And some cannot handle that pressure. If a young quarterback does not show enough potential and promise early in his tenure as the starter, coaches will not hesitate to go in a different direction. And if that quarterback was not personally chosen by the GM and coaches in charge, that opportunity is even more limited. As this season winds down, many tea...

white shining
The dome of Galeries Lafayette, amazing!
A simple reason why I love (even more) Paris.
Max Mara tights, NafNaf vest, Bebe boots, Massimo Dutti shorts, Zara shirt
It`s funny how sometimes you make plans ( for example what I had planned for today,
a special post for you!) and then you can`t get them done,
but it`s definitely great when you don`t plan something that in the end is better.
Just a thought!
I was expecting a little bit more sun today, but when I oppened the window I just saw
clouds, white ones, so I took the outfit I`d planned for today back to the closet
and instead I put together this one, totally white ( no white shoes!).
And then I went to Galeries Lafayette, another big mall, with this huge breathtaking
ceiling, and lucky me! I found something incredible: It`s WHITE.
Can you guess?
À bientôt!

Hammel seeks pre-trade form in matchup with Smyly
A's stay patient with right-hander; lefty joined Rays in Price deal
With his high-profile July acquisitions, A's general manager Billy Beane has gone "all in" with his pursuit of bringing a World Series title back to Oakland in 2014. So, the pressure's on.
That especially applies to the A's starter Tuesday night, Jason Hammel. He is 0-4 with a 9.53 ERA in four starts with Oakland, his most recent one resulting in a 4 1/3-inning, eight-run outing in Houston.
"Obviously, right now, it doesn't look too good, but it's a long season. I've been through this before," Hammel said after that outing. "I got to continue to have confidence in myself and continue to do what I've done before. This is nothing new to me. I've been through this before."
Manager Bob Melvin realizes the early return on Hammel has been a far cry from what they anticipated, but given Hammel's track record, Melvin hasn't exactly reached DEFCON status with his right-handed starter.
"I think it's probably a feel thing, because his bullpens, from what I understand, have been good," Melvin said Monday. "For a guy that's been so successful until he got here, for me it's probably a feel thing. I haven't talked to him about it, but my feeling is that all he needs is a good game under his belt and then he'll be off to the races."
He'll be opposed by left-hander Drew Smyly, who'll be making his Rays debut after being acquired by Tampa Bay in the Trade Deadline deal that sent ace David Price to the Tigers.
Manager Joe Maddon wants to make absolutely sure the lefty's mind is not overflowing with information. Maddon has given him a simple game plan with some gentle suggestions, but other than that, Smyly will be on his own.
"A couple suggestions we have, we've already given him for [Tuesday]. They're extremely simple," Maddon said before Monday's series opener at the Coliseum. "These are the couple suggestions we have for you to think about, and then if you want to utilize them, fine."
One thing Maddon certainly did not suggest: for Smyly to try to be Price.
"We want him to be himself," Maddon said. "He's been pitching well. We don't want to get in his way right now."
"You're not going to replace David Price," said Smyly. "The Rays made the trade, they wanted me, so I'm going to do the best I can and try to learn from them and get better every game. I'm just doing me."
Smyly was 6-9 this year with a 3.93 ERA in 21 appearances (18 starts) for Detroit before being traded in a three-team deal. He has logged 105 1/3 innings, and Maddon has received no information about any innings restrictions.
A's: Crisp returns
Help is on the way for a slumping offense.
Coco Crisp, who missed seven consecutive games because of a neck ailment, was back on the field off the bench Monday night against the Rays.
"More than anything, we're looking forward to getting him in the lineup" Melvin said. "I know he's excited about getting back in there."
He drew a pinch-hit walk in the seventh inning, stayed in defensively at center field and struck out in his only other plate appearance in the ninth.
The A's entered the day 3-4 with a .224 average in their last week of games without Crisp, whose .373 on-base percentage had been sorely missed.
Rays: Homecoming for Balfour
For three days, Balfour Rage is back at the Coliseum.
Grant Balfour saved 64 games during his three-year tenure in Oakland, blossoming into the A's closer for back-to-back division-winning teams in 2012 and '13. The A's elected to go a different route this season, but the right-hander has nothing but love -- not rage -- for the Oakland players and fans.
"A lot of good memories, no doubt," Balfour said Monday before the opener of a three-game set. "It's exciting to come back to a place where you played and you had success. We did some good things, made it exciting, and brought back the winning baseball to Oakland."
The Coliseum crowd embraced Balfour's fiery style -- and his 2.53 ERA from 2011-13 didn't hurt.
"They were great to me," he said. "I couldn't ask for anything more of those guys. I've got to thank them all for the way they took me in and the way they made me feel."
This season has gone less smoothly for Balfour, who lost his closer's job in June and has a 4.93 ERA in 44 appearances. He surrendered the game-winning run in the A's 3-2, 10-inning victory Monday night.
Worth noting
• The current A's roster features six former Rays players, prompting Maddon to refer to the group on Monday as the "Ra-A's."
Pitchers Jason Hammel and Scott Kazmir, catchers John Jaso and Stephen Vogt, and outfielders Sam Fuld and Jonny Gomes all spent time in Tampa before coming to Oakland.

Sounds cool. If I understand this correctly, it means that programs that still use the fixed function pipeline will work on all of the newer hardware that emulated fixed function ops in shaders without the drivers actually having to implement those emulation shaders, which should allow some simplification of newer drivers going forward.
Does this understanding happen to line up with reality in any way?

Welcome to the start of famous Route 66! Enjoy time at leisure to relax or to do some independent exploring. Your Tour Director is on hand this evening to answer any questions.
Known as the "Windy City," Chicago is home to America's tallest building, legends such as Al Capone and his notorious gang, and, of course, countless jazz and blues clubs. Experience this exciting city on a morning sightseeing tour. This afternoon is at leisure. Ride the elevator to the top of the Sears Tower, explore The Magnificent Mile with 460 stores in eight city blocks, or stroll along Navy Pier. Tonight, join an optional Gangster Tour.
Travel across the fertile Illinois farmlands, where the road is dotted with truck stops, diners, and quirky icons. Upon arrival in Springfield, visit BILL SHEA'S ROUTE 66 GAS STATION MUSEUM, a favorite stop for travelers. His memorabilia spans the lifetime of this famous road. On to Springfield and the former home of President Abraham Lincoln. Visit his home and the ABRAHAM LINCOLN PRESIDENTIAL MUSEUM. The evening is yours to enjoy the International Route 66 Festival, where the streets come alive with the rumble of engines from hot cars, cool tracks and vintage motorcycles. There is free live entertainment featuring R & B, Motown and everyone's favorite tunes of the 50s and 60s. There are also various exhibitors, vendors, and dozens of specialty food stalls.
This morning we cross the mighty Mississippi River and continue to St. Louis, "Gateway to the West." Your orientation tour includes the towering GATEWAY ARCH. Ride to the top of the 630-foot-tall Arch for a panoramic view of the city and river. The remainder of the day is at leisure. Tonight, why not enjoy some famous St. Louis barbecue?
Today we travel through the Missouri countryside. Then, on to Branson, one of America's biggest music centers. Join us this evening for our optional evening and enjoy an award-winning buffet dinner and one of Branson's top shows. Your Tour Director will have further details. (Continental Breakfast)
This morning, leave the Ozarks and travel through America's "Bible Belt" into Cowboy Country. After a quick drive through Kansas, enter Oklahoma, once known as Indian Territory. Stopover in Claremore to visit the WILL ROGERS MEMORIAL MUSEUM. Born on a sprawling frontier ranch in Oklahoma, Will Rogers was an Indian, a cowboy, a movie and Broadway star, a writer, a speaker, a comedian, and a world figure. View his collection of saddles, photos, and manuscripts that reflect on his incredible life. Later today, arrive in Oklahoma City. (Continental Breakfast)
A city tour this morning includes the NATIONAL COWBOY HALL OF FAME & WESTERN HERITAGE MUSEUM, a national memorial to the American cowboy. See exhibits that include Native Americans, the American cowboy, rodeo, and more. A "must-see" is Prosperity Junction, a recreated Western town. From here, travel to Clinton, Oklahoma, where you'll visit the OKLAHOMA ROUTE 66 MUSEUM, home to vintage cars, neon signs, a '50s diner, and drive-in theater. Continue through the rolling hill country into Texas and on to Amarillo, the state's oil capital. Get into the Lone Star spirit tonight with our optional dinner of juicy Texas steak, served with heaps of Wild West atmosphere. (Continental Breakfast)
On the way out of Amarillo, see Cadillac Ranch, a quirky art sculpture consisting of a collection of 10 Cadillacs. Before crossing into New Mexico, reach Adrian, the halfway point on Route 66. Next, stop in Tucumcari to hear the ancient Indian fable of how the city received its name, shop for souvenirs at Tepee Curios, and see the neon signs of the Blue Swallow Motel that has been serving travelers of Route 66 since 1939. Continue along old Route 66 west to Santa Rosa. Look for the signs of the good ol' days: Comet Drive-In, Silver Moon, Sun and Sand, and the still-grinning faces of Fat Man billboards outside of town. Visit the ROUTE 66 AUTO MUSEUM to see memorabilia and cars of the era. Upon arrival in Albuquerque, an included guided walking tour features Albuquerque's Old Town, site of the city's original settlement. Next, visit Central Avenue, where many of the original Route 66 buildings and businesses still stand. (Continental Breakfast)
This morning, enjoy a leisurely breakfast or sunbathe in the New Mexico sunshine. Consider a short walk to Old Town, site of the city's original settlement. Hone your bargaining skills with the local craftsmen who line the square to sell their lovely silver and turquoise jewelry. Visit the renowned Albuquerque Museum of Art & History that features Southwestern art and 400 years of Albuquerque history. After spending the rest of the day exploring more of this atmospheric city, seize the chance to ride the world's longest aerial tramway up nearby Sandia Peak Mountain and witness spine-tingling views of the desert floor, forests, and canyons below.
This morning stand in awe as you experience the pre-dawn opening ceremonies and the unforgettable Mass Ascension where hundreds of hot air balloons take off, turning the sky into a virtual rainbow of colors. What began as a gathering of thirteen balloons 35 years ago has since turned into the largest ballooning event in the world. Then, cross the Continental Divide and continue to Gallup, which claims a longtime Hollywood connection. From Redskin, filmed in 1929, to the more recent adventures of Superman, the area has provided unequaled movie scenery. Tonight is in Flagstaff, nestled at the base of the San Francisco Mountains.
Deviate from Route 66 to see one of the Natural Wonders of the World, the GRAND CANYON. Wander along the canyon rim and experience breathtaking views. Perhaps join the optional helicopter "flightseeing" tour. Tonight you stay inside Grand Canyon National Park. (Continental Breakfast)
Return to Route 66 and pass through historic Williams, which is listed in the National Register for Historic Places. Make sure to appreciate the neon signs of the intact circa 1940s "Motel Row." Later today, visit Seligman, home to the rebirth of Route 66. Detour once again from Route 66 to visit the bright lights and excitement of Las Vegas.
Enjoy a day at leisure. Relax by the pool or explore the world-renowned Las Vegas Strip. Ride the world's highest rollercoaster, float through a Venice canal, or see man-eating sharks up close—it's all possible in Las Vegas. Don't miss downtown Las Vegas, where you'll find the Fremont Street Experience, five city blocks enclosed in a glass atrium and filled with dazzling lights, sounds, and action. A variety of optional excursions are available, including a float trip through dramatic Black Canyon on the Colorado River.

When someone is sitting down with their legs spread very far apart, as if they have the largest dick and balls in the world and this is the closest they can bring their legs together.
God damnit, during rush hour the train was full of assholes man-sitting with their legs all up in my space.

Warsaw, the capital of Poland, was severely damaged by bombs and shells during the Second World War. Fortunately, this has not caused the city to lose much of its grandeur.
The River Vistula divides the city of Warsaw into two different parts. The district on the left bank is more attractive to tourists, with the modern city centre and the Old Town. The Old Town is lively and atmospheric, full of outdoor cafés and surrounded by mediaeval fortified walls.
Warsaw suffered greatly during the Second World War. Many historic buildings were destroyed, including the magnificent Warsaw Royal Castle. Fortunately, this castle has been renovated and it is now once again accessible to the public. Visitors can wander through magnificent royal chambers, such as the Marble Room, the Throne Room and the Ballroom and enjoy works from the early Baroque, Gothic and Rococo periods. The oldest monument in Warsaw is the statue of King Sigismund II Wasa. Also worth a visit is the market square, which is surrounded by beautiful mansions, alternating with cafés and restaurants.
