WTT: silver LSS wheels/tires for aftermarket wheels/tires
Interested in trading my silver (painted version) LSS wheels for any interesting aftermarket wheels. My set is the pre-08 version that have the wider, 6.5" fronts. They have 205/50 and 225/45 Star Specs with less than 1000 miles, freshly mounted and balanced.
Interested in: Volks, XLRs, Ethos, Team Dynamics, etc. that are 16/17 and have widths no more than 7/8. Nothing excessively wide or with excessively low offsets. Tires are a plus, but not necessary. Would like them to be within spec in relation to wheels specs. 195/50, 205/50, 205/45 for fronts; 225/45 and 235/45 for rears. Local inspection and trade would be nice. Equal trade, minus, or plus cash (most likely this route) are all possibilities depending on situation. I know it's remote, but let me know if you're interested. |

Team Task Analysis: Identifying Tasks and Jobs That Are Team Based
Academic journal article

Article excerpt
The primary objective of the present paper is to present information on the development of three team task analysis scales. A goal was to develop these scales in such a manner that they could be easily incorporated into existing job and task analysis systems to identify team-based tasks and quantify the degree of team interdependency. The scales also allow for a quantitative assessment of the degree to which a job is team based. Initial validation data for the scales from a lab study are presented. The results of the lab data are supplemented with descriptions of applications of the scales in operational field settings.
Job and Task Analysis Scales
Task analysis entails the description of jobs in terms of identifiable units of activities. Although the level of specificity of analysis and description may vary, job and task analysis techniques are typically focused at the task level. Hence, job and task analysis is the process by which the major work behaviors and associated knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSAs) that are required for successful job or task performance are identified. Thus it is recognized, from both a professional and legal perspective, that job analysis is the critical foundation for most, if not all, human resource functions (Binning & Barrett, 1989; Equal Employment Opportunity Commission et al., 1978).
Procedurally, at some point in the job analysis process, task ratings on a number of dimensions are obtained from subject matter experts. These dimensions or scales typically encompass but are not limited to importance, frequency, time spent, criticality, difficulty of performing, difficulty of learning, time to proficiency, and consequences of errors (Arthur, Doverspike, & Barrett, 1996). Although these scales have generally been studied in the context of tasks performed by individuals (e.g., Sanchez & Fraser, 1992; Sanchez & Levine, 1989), they are clearly applicable to tasks performed by teams. However, because teams consist of two or more individuals who have specific role assignments, perform specific tasks, and must interact and coordinate to successfully achieve common goals or objectives (Baker & Salas, 1997), team tasks have an additional element of complexity that is not present in the analysis of individual tasks. These differences between individual and team tasks and the resultant need for additional task analysis scales to describe and obtain information about team tasks are described in the next section.
Overview and Summary of the Team Task Analysis Literature
Although there has been an increased amount of attention paid to teams in recent years (e.g., Artman, 2000; Bartone, Johnsen, Eid, Brun, & Laberg, 2002; Brannick, Prince, & Salas, 1997; Dyer, 1984; Hackman, 1987; Rasker, Post, & Schraagen, 2000; Salas, Burke, Bowers, & Wilson, 2001), team task analysis has received very little of this attention. For instance, a comprehensive search of the published literature identified only a small number of team task analysis papers, such as Bowers, Baker, and Salas (1994), Bowers, Morgan, Salas, and Prince (1993), Dieterly (1988), and Swezey, Owens, Bergondy, and Salas (1998; see also Baker, Salas, & Cannon-Bowers, 1998). A review of this literature highlights the differences and commonalities between individual and team tasks and, subsequently, the need for task analysis scales to describe team tasks.
First, as noted, there are some commonalities between team task analysis and individual job and task analysis. Thus rating scales such as importance, frequency, time spent, and time to proficiency are equally applicable and relevant to both individual and team tasks. In addition, individual and team task analysis share a commonality of data collection methods, such as the use of questionnaires, critical incident techniques, observation, interviews, expert judgments, and archival data. …

Since watching TTGL my ability to watch and accept anime has dramatically changed. Its crazy that despite its animation and humour, it was one of the most serious animes I've seen to date.
In terms of storyline and character development the only thing I've found that can come even remotely close was Death Note.
But then, I don't have many informants when it comes to what to watch. =P

General Trading Guidelines
The following are general guidelines designed to address many of the questions customers have about our trading policy. Bear in mind also that there are numerous exceptions to many of these guidelines and that our needs sometimes fluctuate.
Items the Muse does not take:
Textbooks, except for some math, engineering & beginning foreign language
Reader's Digest Condensed Novels
Other Reader's Digest and Time-Life Books, with some exceptions
Multi-volume and older single-volume encyclopedias
Older travel books (4 years old)
Older computer books (4 years old)
Movie or TV novelizations, with some exceptions
Self-published books, except for new releases by local authors
Ex-library books, except for exceptional cases
Book Club editions, except for exceptional cases or titles/authors we don't see enough
Review Copies
Advance Readers
CDs without full jewel case and front and back cover
Complimentary CDs or any with brand-name affiliations (i.e., "A Victoria's Secret Collection" or "Compliments of Prime Outlets")
CD singles (1-4 songs, usually) of lesser desired artists
Homemade DVDs - often say "CD-R" or are blue or otherwise indicate homemade
VHS tapes
Music cassettes
Audiobook cassettes
For most items we generally pay store credit that never expires, although we do reserve cash offers for premium items such as new bestselling books, rare books, DVDs, newer video games and high-end CDs.
How important is the condition of my items?
Extremely important. For our buying customers' sake, we are somewhat picky about the condition of items we take. Slight book jacket tears, slight CD and DVD surface scratches, minor underlining and highlighting and the like are oftenforgivable, but on the whole we like our items "gently used" as advertised. Many of our new customers initially think we are a new bookstore, which is a compliment we'd like to continue to earn.
What amount of credit or cash can I expect to receive for my items?
Because our average price is $4.98, the most common amount we offer, in trade or cash, is $1.00, or 20% of our asking price. We do, of course, sell items for more as well as less, and the amount we offer depends on our likely asking price as well as its likelihood of selling - i.e., a double Beatles CD that will sell for $14.98 is worth to The Muse $6.00 to $7.50 in trade or $5.00 to $6.00 cash, the same premium offer we would make on DVDs or video games, whereas a hardcover novel that may or may not sell for $4.98 is worth 50 cents to $1.00 trade only (no cash), or, again, 20% of our asking price. Our offer goes up or down depending on our asking price and how likely we are to achieve that price.
Mass Market (aka "Pocket") Paperbacks
For mass market paperbacks we typically pay 20% of our asking price, depending on popularity and the likelihood we already have copies, though we occasionally offer half in credit or even some cash for newer (6 months old or less) bestselling authors/titles. We do not take paperbacks that have severely cracked spines or substantial other damage. If the customer is buying only like items, we can do a 2-for-1 or 3-for-1 trade, depending on the age/equality of items being traded.
Hardcover/Trade Fiction
Since we have less space for these than we do pockets, especially for genre fiction, we are pickier about what we take in this category; we take primarily the best sellers, and then only items we strongly suspect we do not have. In Fiction/Lit, of course, we take all classics as well as other salable items, and we do not take Hardcover/Trade historical romances, only contemporary romances for that separate section. On average we offer 20% of our asking price, which is typically $4.98 for these items. Sometimes, however, we pay even less than 50 cents for some hardcover fiction, especially if it is likely to be discounted, a recent release by an unknown author, etc.
Hardcover/Trade Nonfiction
This category varies widely because it encompasses a wide range of topics and price ranges. Still, on average this category garners 20% of our asking price, although many premium items are worth up to 50% of the asking price.
Whenever possible we use Amazon.com to determine our asking price and therefore our offering amount, and while our average price is $2.98 to $4.98, the range of asking prices varies much more widely than for many other categories. We certainly try not to price most DVDs over $12.98, with obvious exceptions such as boxed sets, Criterion Collection title, etc. We offer between 20% and 50% credit or between 10% and 40% cash for most DVDs if cash is offered at all.
Our average asking price is $4.98, and we typically top out at $7.98, although boxed sets can go out for much higher. We generally offer 10% for usual suspects, 20% to 30% for less common ones, and 40% to 50% for classic 60s bands, better Greatest Hits collections, higher-end blues and jazz and any other popular artists/titles of which we don't already have too many.
Audiobooks on CD
Our average price is, again, $4.98 for Audio CDs, although best sellers and certain titles can go for much more. We pay on average 30% credit or 20% cash for Audio CDs.
Video Games
Consul videogames, especially newer ones, are worth 60% credit or 50%. Most PC games are worth roughly 5 for $1.00 store credit if we take them at all.
Most LPs go out for between 93 cents and $3.98, with obvious exceptions such as The Beatles, Elvis, Miles Davis, etc. if they're in good condition. What we pay for vinyl varies widely, but we pay 50% to 60% of asking price for collectible LPs.
Journals, Address Books, etc.
We can take blank journals and address books provided they have no writing in them whatsoever. We can give 20% to 30% of our asking price, depending on how nice they are. Most go out for between $3.98 and $5.98.
Games, Puzzles & Toys
We do not take games (except videogames) unless they are in their original wrapping (i.e., new) or unless we know for sure that no pieces are missing. Asking prices and offers depend on list price and condition, and we give 20% to 30% on average. As for toys, offers vary considerably.

The emergence of the cash flow statement, mainly to reflect the various balance sheet items on the cash flow impact, and classified according to their use as operating, investing and financing activities in three categories. Cash flow statement can be used to analyze an organization in the short term do not have enough cash to meet their expenses. cash flow statement is a display in the specified period (usually one month, quarter. Mainly the annual reports of the year) in cash inflows and outflows of financial reports. This report shows the balance sheet (BalanceSheet), and income statement (IncomeStatement / ProfitandLossAccount) how they affect cash equivalents, and according to the company's operating, investment and financing perspective analysis. As an analytical tool, the main role is to determine the cash flow short-term viability of the company, especially the ability to pay bills. business over the past emphasized the balance sheet and income statement are two tables, with the expansion of business and the complexity of the financial information needs of growing up, but many business interruption due to causes in the capital turnover problem, gradually, enterprise funds reported cash flow trends may also be of importance in many business operators as it will be necessary in the financial statements. cash flow analysis cash flow statement is the basis for the preparation of cash basis, reflecting income during a given period of cash and cash expenditure reports. The analysis of cash flow statement, it is necessary to master the table structure and characteristics, to analyze the internal structure, but also the income statement and assets of the balance sheet combined with a comprehensive analysis, more balanced and objectively assess the financial position and operational performance. Therefore, the analysis of cash flow from the following aspects: 1, cash flow and structural analysis of company's cash flow from operating activities generated cash flow, cash flow from investing activities and financing activities Cash flows from three parts. Analysis of cash flow and its structure, to understand the circumstances surrounding the business and cash payments in cash form, evaluation of enterprises operating conditions, the highest current capacity, financing capacity and financial strength. (a) operating activities Cash flow analysis. l, will be selling goods or rendering of services received in cash and purchase goods. Receiving services to pay cash for comparison. Enterprises operating in the normal balance of the purchase and sale of the two comparisons are meaningful. Ratio, which meant that the sales profits of big business and Days Sales Outstanding good record is strong. 2, will be selling goods or rendering of services received in cash and total cash flows from operating activities compared to sales of enterprise products can be a rough indication of total cash inflow from operating activities Cash share of how much. Than significant, indicating prominent main business companies, marketing is good. 3, the current net cash flow from operating activities compared with the previous period, the higher growth rate, indicating the better business growth. (b) investing activities Cash flow analysis. When the company expanded the size or development of new profit growth point, requires a lot of cash, investment activities could not be compensated in cash inflows outflows from investing activities Net cash flow is negative, but effective if business investment will generate in the future net inflow of cash to repay debt, and create income, enterprises will not have debt-servicing difficulties. Therefore, the analysis of investment cash flows should be combined with current business investment projects, not simply the net cash inflow or net flow out on the advantages and disadvantages. (c) financing activities cash flow analysis. Generally speaking, fund-raising activities net cash flow generated by the larger enterprises are facing greater pressure of debt service, but if the net cash inflows mainly from the corporate absorption of equity capital, then one will not only face; temporary debt pressure, but increased financial strength. Therefore, in the analysis, can absorb the equity capital received in cash and financing activities Cash inflow compared with the share proportion, indicating enhanced corporate financial strength, financial risk reduction. (4) Components of cash flow. First, calculate the cash inflow from operating activities, investing cash inflows and cash inflows accounted for the proportion of the cash inflow to understand the main source of cash. In general, total cash inflow from operating activities Cash inflow than the major companies operating in good condition, low financial risk, cash flow structure is more reasonable. Second, calculate the operating cash expenditures, cash expenditures in investing activities and financing activities Cash outflow of cash expenses to the proportion, it can specifically reflect the cash for what. In general, the proportion of cash expenditures of enterprises, production and management of its normal cash expenditure structure is more reasonable. 2, comparative analysis of cash flow and profit and loss account profit and loss account company must reflect the operating results during the important report, which reveals the profits of the calculation process and the formation of profit. Evaluation of corporate profits are seen as operating results and an important indicator of profitability, but there are some flaws. As we all know, profit is revenue minus the cost difference, and revenue and expense recognition and measurement on an accrual basis, revenue realization principle widely used, cost matching principle, divided into capital expenditure and revenue expenditure to the principle of carried out, including too many accounting estimates. Although the accounting staff to follow when making accounting estimates, and have some objective basis, but inevitably the use of subjective judgments. Moreover, since the income and expenses are recognized on their ownership, regardless of whether actually received or paid in cash, often to the profit calculated on the basis of a level of profitability does not match its true financial condition. Some companies book profits of large, seemingly impressive results, while cash is living beyond their means, in serious difficulties; and some enterprises have huge losses, but cash-rich, flow freely. Therefore, the only profit to evaluate business performance and profitability is biased. If combined with the cash flow statement of cash flow information provided by, particularly the net cash flow from operating activities of the information, is more objective and comprehensive. In fact, the net profit and cash flow are two companies from different angles to reflect the performance indicators, the former may be called the accrual of profits, which can be called a cash profit. Relationship, through cash flow revealed additional information 2. Specific analysis, cash flow statement may be relevant indicators and related indicators of the income statement compared to assess the quality of corporate profits. (i) net cash flows from operating activities compared with net profit, to some extent reflect the quality of corporate profits. That is, each company to achieve 1 per book profit, the actual number of cash support, the higher the ratio, the higher the quality of profits. However, this indicator only in normal business operations can not only generate profits but also net cash flows when earnings were comparable, analysis of this ratio makes sense. In order to net cash flows from operating activities calculated along the same lines, net profit excluding investment gains and indicators should financing costs. (b) the sale of goods and rendering of services received in cash compared with the main business income, business sales can largely explain the situation and the recovery of cash the quality of enterprise sales. Share of income is a significant number, indicating an increase in sales after the assets to achieve cash conversion speed and high quality. (c) of the share of profits and dividends or bond interest received to obtain cash and return on investment compared to broadly reflect the quality of corporate investment income book. 3, the cash flow statement and balance sheet of the comparative analysis of corporate balance sheets to reflect the final statement of assets and liabilities, using the cash flow statement of the relevant indicators and related indicators of the balance sheet compared to more for the objective evaluation of the company's solvency. Profitability and ability to pay. (1) solvency analysis liquidity ratio is the ratio of current assets to current liabilities, and liquidity is reflected in one year or one operating cycle, cash assets, including a number of liquidity is not strong, such as sluggish stock, it may not justify the receivables, and costs are essentially prepaid expenses, pending loss and prepayments and other current assets. Although the nature of the assets they have, but in fact does not change again for the cash, no longer has the ability to pay debt. Moreover, structural differences between different enterprises greater liquidity, asset quality vary, so only the current ratio [1] [2] Next / center>

Jon Jones Talks UFC 128 Strategy, Beating Shogun Rua in the Clinch
:laugh::laugh: What a label. I'm not sure which sounds more gay, that or the Pro-Boners... |
I think the clinch is about the only area where Bones might be equal to Shogun. In my opinion it's not a good strategy to try to win a fight with a muay thai striker in the clinch, but I guess it's his best shot by far.
You're saying Shogun has better wrestling to ^? I don't know if I can go with that one. We'll see come Saturday night, I feel Shogun has to KO/TKO Bones early to get the win.
About the strategy: nothing new here - greco-roman wrestlers love the clinch. They use it for their throws. Taking Shogun down is the right plan for Jones. |
3 Attachment(s)
This is not as absurd as it sounds. Who has ever outworked Couture in the clinch? A high level Greco Roman clinch > MT clinch. You throw those knees against a greco guy, you're on your back before you can load up the second one, they're masters of misdirection in the clinch.
The MT clinch is devastating against traditional boxers and grapplers, especially when you have a height advantage, but not so against a greco guy. Especially one that has a height advantage on you. I wish Jones would stop talking himself up though, makes me nervous. |
well this is what i expected from him, hes not going to strike with him, and he doesnt have the traditional wrestling style of shooting for doubles or singles, as much as he talks about wanting to strike with shogun, i think hes going to rush in, clinch up and ragdoll him down and try to land already in side control...that would be his best option no doubt
shogun has an awesome clinch but JBJ is too tall and his greco and strength will be too much for him IMO though if JBJ is stupid and tries to test his striking against him i think shogun will KO him, you can tell that JBJ really needs to work on his striking a lot still...he still doesnt really know how to set things up, his kicks are getting better but his punches are just awful also...on the gound he really stretches his arm out a lot, he should becareful with that against shogun, ppl think shogun wont sub him because he only has one win by sub BUT the guys he goes to the ground with know what they are doing usually, they are a higher level than white belt, JBJ makes some rookies mistakes on the ground, maybe its because he knows the other fighters isnt a black belt, but shogun does in fact have good BJJ and if he sees that huge ass arm just hanging out there i doubt he wont catch it this is such an interesting fight, especially because JBJ is always getting better and better, once he learns how to set up his strikes and really learns how to use that reach...dudes gonna be scary! and hes so agile for his size, those kicks and flying knees are impressive:thumbsup: i hope he becomes a fighter like pettis who just trys new shit out once in a while |
This could be a good formula for Jones, providing that if he get's a decent clinch, he uses it to get a takedown ASAP, not try for strikes because he will get countered. Either way, I'm 99% sure he will eat shots on the way in, and 100% sure that Shogun has big tricks up his sleeve for a ground situation.
I don't like Jon's talk of standing with Rua, because I think he actually means it... Shogun will land strikes no matter what distance Jon tries to maintain, there is no striking/stand up situation in this fight where Jones has any kind of advantage, he's not good enough to know how to use his length so it is irrelevant. He needs to get it down, stay calm and try to work for good positions. I think Jones more dictates where the fight goes, but Rua much more dictates how the fight ends. |

Actually, what you're describing is a deluge system. In a deluge system, the sprinkler heads are open. Those sort of systems are not activated by the sprinkler head - rather, they are activated by other means - typically some sort of electronic detection. A dry system operates the same way as a traditional wet system, but is filled with pressurized nitrogen. When the sprinkler head is activated, the gas comes out first, followed by the water. (also not the behavior seen in movies). Dry and deluge systems are also used far less often than the more traditional systems.

Who better to review a movie about porn than a porn star? That's why we got the beautiful Allie Haze to share… Watch Now »
This week: Steven Spielberg directs Daniel Day-Lewis in his Oscar-winning role in "Lincoln" as the 16th President of the United States who spent the last few months of his life making changes that would affect generations of Americans.
Also new this week is the crime drama "Killing Them Softly" with Brad Pitt, the horror sequel "The Collection," the family comedy "Parental Guidance" and Stuart Gordon's cult favorite "From Beyond" on Blu-ray for the first time. Get More »
When we think of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) and its annual televised Golden Globes ceremony, we think of class, dignity, decorum, integrity and above all, sobriety.
Also: It's Opposite Day.
As co-hosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler look to follow in Ricky Gervais' wake at the 70th Annual Golden Globe Awards this Sunday, January 13, we take a look back at the over-the-top milestones of shocking behavior we've come to expect from our beloved Globes.
Okay, let's get this out of the way right up front: No, "Parental Guidance" hasn't yet been given a rating by the MPAA, so it's not actually rated PG.
But while it doesn't have that bit of industry synergy going for it (yet), it does have the kind of synergy you get when you put Billy Crystal and Bette Midler together in a comedy about grandparents trying to adapt to, you know, being grandparents.
And it's also got a new trailer you won't want to miss. Get More »
Marisa Tomei is joining the "Us & Them" family.
The "Crazy, Stupid, Love" star is now part of the clan that will bicker, battle and probably eventually reconcile in the multi-generational comedy, according to Variety.
"Us & Them" stars Crystal and Midler as a feuding couple forced to call a truce when they find themselves living under the same roof as their three grandchildren. As they struggle to come to terms with the kids' modern ways (we're sure there will be a bit of dialogue along the lines of, "What's an iPad?"), they look to reconcile not only with each other but with their daughter (Tomei), the mother of the little hellions.

Bailee Madison should really spend more time outdoors, 'cause there seems to be nothing but trouble whenever she's in the house.
The "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark" star will trade mischievous little demons for good old-fashioned cross-generational conflict in the new family comedy, "Us & Them," according to Variety. Get More »

How the Steel Was Tempered
Russian cover
Author | Nikolai Ostrovsky |
Original title | Как закалялась сталь |
Country | Soviet Union |
Language | Russian |
Genre | Novel |
Publisher | Young Guard (serial) |
Publication date
1932–1934 (serial) – 1936 (book) |
Media type | Print (Hardback & Paperback) |
How the Steel Was Tempered (Russian: Как закалялась сталь, Kak zakalyalas' stal') is a socialist realist novel written by Nikolai Ostrovsky (1904–1936). Pavel ("Pavka") Korchagin is the central character.
The story is a fictionalized autobiography. In real life, Ostrovsky's father died, and his mother worked as a cook. As he joined the war with the Red Army, he lost his right eye from artillery fire during the war.
- Pavel Korchagin – The novel's protagonist. He is fighting on the Bolsheviks' side in the Civil War (1918–1921). He is a quintessential positive hero of socialist realism.
- Tonia Toumanova – Pavel's teenage love. Tonia and Pavel became good friends after their first encounter, which later develops into an intimate relationship. Though born of a wealthy and influential family, Tonia treated everyone equally unlike her friends, who only interact with other children of well-reputed families. However, this changed as she grew up, as she became more aware of her appearance and social status of others.
Publication history[edit]
The first part of How the Steel was Tempered was published serially in 1932 in the magazine Young Guard. The second part of the novel appeared in the same magazine from January to May, 1934. The novel was published in 1936 in book form in a heavily edited version that conformed to the rules of socialist realism. In the serial version Ostrovsky had described the tense atmosphere of Pavel's home, his suffering when he became an invalid, the deterioration of his relationship with his wife, and their separation. All of this disappeared in the 1936 publication and in later editions of the novel.[1]
Japanese translation of the novel was made by Ryokichi Sugimoto who was sentenced to death as a "spy" after illegally crossing the border of the USSR together with his wife, the famous actress Yoshiko Okada, in hope to meet Vsevolod Meyerhold and participate in outbuilding of the socialist theater.
In the Soviet Union, three films were produced based on this novel:
- How the Steel Was Tempered, 1942
- Pavel Korchagin, 1956 (Korchagin was played by Vasily Lanovoy)
- How the Steel Was Tempered, 1975 (TV series of 6 episodes; Korchagin was played by Vladimir Konkin)
In China, the novel was adapted into a television series of the same title in 2000; all the members of the cast were from Ukraine.

ARLINGTON, Va. US Airways reached a tentative agreement Friday on cost cuts with 8,000 passenger service agents represented by the Communications Workers of America.
The deal gives US Airways the reductions it says it needs from all unions except one: the one representing its 6,600 mechanics.
Details of the deal were not released, but airline officials said it met the company's targets for cost reductions. US Airways had been seeking about $70 million in annual wage concessions from CWA employees.
Overall, US Airways has been asking its 35,000 employees to make annual wage concessions totaling about $840 million as part of a $1.2 billion cost-cutting plan. Seven other bargaining units had already conceded to about $619 million in cuts.

The House voted to table a resolution tonight proposed by GOP Whip Eric Cantor (R-Va.) to disapprove of the "malfeasant manner" in which Speaker Pelosi and her deputies have moved on the healthcare bill.
The second-ranking Republican took to the House floor to read his privileged resolution aimed at Democratic leaders, who he claims have "conducted a calculated and coordinated attempt to willfully deceive the American people by embracing the 'Slaughter Solution."
"Democratic leadership has willfully abused its power to chart a legislative course for the Senate health care bill that is deliberately calculated to obfuscate what the House will vote on," Cantor said, calling the method "an illegitimate effort to confuse the public and thereby fraudulently insulate certain Representatives from accountability for their conduct of their offices[.]"
The House voted to effectively kill Cantor's resolution, 232-181. 10 Democrats voted with Republicans.
The following Democrats joined with the GOP:
Rep. Boren (Okla.)
Rep. Childers (Miss.)
Rep. Giffords (Ariz.)
Rep. Kissell (N.C.)
Rep. McIntyre (N.C.)
Rep. Mitchell (Ariz.)
Rep. Minnick (Idaho)
Rep. Perriello (Va.)

One of the first, lame criticisms of Apple's iPad was that it would only be useful for consuming content, not creating it.
Sure, the iPad is great for reading web pages and watching videos. But it has also become a very potent, very cool device for being creative.
Its creative use cases range from a DJ kit -- that's iPad DJ Rana Sobhany pictured -- to a tool for making amazing illustrations and music.
And app developers and artists are creating new uses all the time. Let us know if we've missed something cool.

Plano was founded in the 1840s, and grew steadily as an early Houston and Texas Railroad stop. Unlike other suburbs of Dallas and Houston, Texas, which grew rapidly during the mid-20th century, the Plano real estate area didn't see a population boom until the late 1960s, well after the city's infrastructure and parks system was established. Plano's stability, and careful approach to development made it a popular location for corporate headquarters location, with companies such as Cinemark Theatres, Electronic Data Systems, JC Penny, and Dr. Pepper/Seven Up, Inc. operating here.
Plano is also home to one of the state's most efficient transportation systems. As one of the first cities here to adopt a master plan for its road system, Plano offers easily navigable streets and light traffic. Residents here can easily commute 15 miles south to downtown Dallas via the Dallas Area Rapid Transit rail system.

Theory About Why Most Don't Care for Enterprise as Much...

I'm not a big Enterprise fan, but I'm also
a hater. Actually re-watching it right now via my DVDs.
It's my only good condition DVD set since it's not well worn, but I still own them! So brownie points for that.
The other day though, I did develop a theory as to one perhaps subtle or subconscious reason so many fans turned away from the show?
What if it's all the subtle alterations to Trek lore?
What do I mean? Well, think about it. Shuttle pod instead of shuttle craft. No red alert / tactical alert instead. No photon torpedoes / eventually
torpedoes. Enterprise instead of
Enterprise. Phase pistols instead of phasers.
All those subtle little things designed to show the evolution of them, the predecessor to what we knew, intended to show the earlier stage of things... could those minor trivial details have been a key to putting some people off?
To some it could have been a sort of OCD thing. To others, an annoying nit-picky issue. others still totally unaware it was effecting them negatively. Some may even have felt as if B&B where trying to re-create Trek in their own image or something.
I dunno. It's a bit of a trivial/silly theory, and it's certainly well moot at this juncture, but I thought it an interesting proposition.
Nope I don't think that subtle differences in names was the issue. S3 and S4 are generally considered the best, so we have to ask why is this? Was it down to new writers, changes behind the scenes? A comibination of things.
S4 was in many respects about universe building showing us how things came to be in the later shows, i.e it was finally in many of the fans eyes living up to the prequel concept.
Sure S1-2 had some good episodes, just as S3-4 had some weaker episodes. But a portion of the fanbase was dissapointed with VOY and whilst they were giving ENT a chance for some of them ithere was little difference. Poor characterisation, re-hased storylines. Or simply put more of the same.
Now of course you can't please everyone.
On the continent of wild endeavour in the mountains of solace and solitude there stood the citadel of the time lords, the oldest and most mighty race in the universe looking down on the galaxies below sworn never to interfere only to watch.

DIY Padded Camera Roller Bag – Adjustable Dividers
April 23, 2012
Petapixel posted up an article about a cheap way to create a Rolling Camera Bag through a padded insert and it's something I use for one of my cases. You can find a variety of padded inserts that you can 'modify' to fit into standard rolling luggage cases found at your outlet centers. In the USA we have places like Ross and Marshalls that sell rolling bags at discount prices. One of the cheaper padded dividers mentioned is the Calumet padded divider showing up for about $40 dollars via Calumet (click here).

Other slightly more expensive adjustable padded dividers that come with a top padded cover can be found from Pelican and Nanuk. You can find more of those padded dividers via eBay following the link below (click here).

What's the make & model of the bag insert in the video? It looks far better than the things I've been able to find online.
FYI, the Calumet inset linked to by PetaPixel is no longer available.

Any one who knows of a place to buy such dividers with free shipping? I'm located in Norway..
April 24th, 2012 at 4:35 am
I ordered one. Thanks for the link.
April 24th, 2012 at 5:07 am
@ Emm ~ Ross, Marshalls and TJ Maxx are my wife's "go to" stores here in the Southwest … I really think u must be the guru of discount shopping… Lol
April 24th, 2012 at 6:11 am
In the video it looks like your dividers had a handle and a top cover for the dividers, is that included in the Calumet dividers?
April 24th, 2012 at 6:32 am
What brand do you have? looks like yours has a top zipper.

Very cool DIY tutorial! If anyone's looking for a good backpack version…
I'd recommend the LowePro 450 AW. I recently got one from Adorama's eBay store. Seems to be the cheapest place to find a new one.
Adorama eBay: $145
Adorama website: $230
LowePro site: $300It's a very large, sturdy pack…and the dividers are awesome for organizing a ton of gear (two cameras, 6 or 7 lenses, some flashes). Not the type of bag you'd want to wear ON a shoot, but great for keeping your gear organized and safe going back and forth.
For anyone interested, here's that eBay link:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lowepro-Pro-Runner-450-AW-Camera-System-Backpack-Black-LP36145PEU-/390406004770?pt=US_Camera_Cases_Bags&hash=item5ae602e022#ht_3828wt_907 -
April 24th, 2012 at 2:02 pm
Yep. I got the same Calumet insert for my DIY last year.
I love DIY.http://niceshooting.blogspot.com/2012/04/diy-rolling-camera-bag-aka-old-suitcase.html
June 7th, 2012 at 6:04 pm
So, it's not DIY (or exactly cheap). But, The delsey Pro roller 52 is an exellent, discontinued camera case that used to go for ~$300 back in the film days. There are 2 on amazon and 4 9early june 2012) at Roberts imaging right now for around $180. They aren't as nice as a thinktank Airport International. However, if you're a young pro & you need a "get by & not look like a cheap asshole" bag they're pretty awesome. I know a working photographer who flys with it on the regular, and uses it for his camera kit for every shoot. He's had it for at least 8 years & it still looks less than a year old. I just got one for My 5ds & while it's not tall enough to stand my speedlites up in. :'( It's still an awesome bag for $100 less than an x200 and $200 less than an AI. Keep shooting

This is awesome! Does anyone have a link to the exact insert he used in the video? I really really really want that one but can't find it!
Thanks so much!

Got my Calumet insert today. It's very nice, has lots more room than my current bag and fits perfectly in a carry-on I already had.
Only downside so far is that my T4i with a battery grip is too tall.

anyone know of any other brand insert dividers for roller bags? i only ask cause calumet is out fo stock for 12+ months they said…
March 25th, 2014 at 4:56 am
Couldn't get one of these while Calumet was still in business. Anyone know what would be a good alternative? Might be a good time for the folks at P&C to offer one for the masses that follow cheesycam!

There are hundreds of offshore energy rigs around the UK's coastline, where thousands of staff work around the clock drilling and extracting oil and gas.
It is tough job, and one that is facing a skills shortage.

Re: Croatia
Hey Atilla,
Good to hear from you. The original plan was to spend 2 1/2 weeks in Croatia, but the whole bike breakdown threw everything in a spin and all I got were those 4 days before moving on to meet Danilo's brother in Belgrade.
I agree about the Adriatic coast, I'm definitely going to have to come back to Europe at some point and give the Dalmatian coast and the Balkans the time and attention they deserve =)
I'll be in SE Asia/Oz/NZ between Jan and April, so will def keep you posted as the time approaches...
Robin Hood and Tarzan Walking thru the Forest
Trip Start
Aug 04, 2009
Trip End
Aug 30, 2010
Where I stayed
Such was the nature of the scampering about that Ian and I partook during our 3 days in Dubrovnik. Ian is an incoming Junior at UC Santa Cruz whom I met waiting for the ferry from Bari, in possession of a mandolin and a propensity to whistle, most commonly the theme from Disney's Robin Hood and, to occasionally mix things up, the banjo duel from Deliverance. He was a breath of fresh air from the typical Aussie type whose favorite conversation piece is how much he drinks and gets laid.
That role was filled for the duration of the ride by Justin, who arrived at the port shortly after I did - a genuinely fascinating guy when he's talking about running his own business (property development), martial arts (his parents are both black belts) and a month spent at a temple meditating (he no longer swats mosquitoes, even as they're biting him). He just had an unfortunate tendency to steer the conversation towards the 100 euros spent nightly on booze and unspecified amount of sleeping around on the Kon Tiki tour group he had just parted ways with. On the ferry he bought a bottle of rum, 2/3 of which he drained into 4 glasses (there was an English kid whose girlfriend had some hot friends) mixed with equal amounts of Coke. We were somewhat unimpressed that Justin was the first to pass out, but none of us lasted for long between his libation and the preceding 4 cans of beer at what we eventually noticed was 11.5%. Still, I did enjoy sleeping and waking up on the deck just as we pulled into the harbor at 7:30, which I'd last experienced on the Qingdao to Shanghai ferry when I was 16.
Ian had read good reviews about The Backpackers Club, which I had already prebooked, so I called them to pick both of us up from the port. A short wait and drive later we pulled into the house, where the matron - undeterred by the fact that she knew only my name from the reservation - welcomed us with a jubilant "Hello David! Hello boy!" as though we were prodigal children returning after a long absence from a dark, distant land (substitute dark, distant with hot, expensive and it's not far off the mark for Western Europe). As is my tendency, I forgot her name right away, proving doubly embarrassing over the days in light of her practice of greeting each guest by name every time she saw us, regardless of whether she had anything more to add. I felt better when I saw her husband likes to keep it simple - "Hello boy!"or "Hello young people!" as the occasion suited.
She shunted us to the kitchen table for some of the best damn French Toast I've ever partaken (I'm not just speaking from the POV of groggy, hangover hunger either - each consecutive morning I took 3 massive servings), then clucked that we should go downstairs to sleep until noon. It's astonishing what a difference it makes to stay somewhere that feels like a home and not a business; those 2 hours were the best sleep of my trip yet.
The afternoon was spent checking out Old Town, every aspect of which is delightful except for the port, where the waft of seafood is more tempting than anyone on a budget should ever be subjected to.
The evening and next day drifted by uneventfully but idyllically, consisting mostly of trekking our separate ways between the hostel atop the hill and the promenade and pebbly beaches below. There's not terribly much to see or do in Dubrovnik once you've hit old town, which is not as negative statement as it sounds in light of the terrible pounding I subjected my feet to in Rome.
On the third day, Ian and I were joined by Alice, an Aussie who had parted ways with her friend Josh that morning, and Tristam, also Aussie, who can go on remarkably little sleep, to find a jumping point yet another Aussie had told us about the night before. It wasn't hard to find, Ian having passed it the previous day and being marked by an upturned shopping cart in the shallow end, and we spent the better part of an hour clambering up to and diving down from the 20-foot crag over the pool. An overhanging tree provided the best if not most stable launch point, which only Ian and I were foolhardy enough to attempt in wet sandals (though I have every confidence James would have were he there).
For the latter part of the day we took the ferry from Old Town to the nearby island of Lokrum. About half the small island was closed off so we couldn't check out the old fort, and the botanical garden was even less interesting than that of Valencia but for the butterflies fluttering over the some fallen cactus fruit. But the main draw was the rocky far coast that are excellent for diving and sunning, and the tranquility of having no development.
The most ... memorable ... part was the lagoon. At the far end was a rock face with, as before, a tree extending overhead about 20 feet from the water, but this time with 10 feet of rope hanging down from it ending with a branch tied across its end for a makeshift swing. The curvature of the face meant you can only start a swing from directly under the branch lest you crash into the opposite face, but the lack of outcroppings meant I had to climb almost as high as the base of the tree itself, putting the swing branch a good 10 feet below me.
The idea was to use my truncated, 5 foot length of rope to do a tarzan swing, pushing the rope away at the apex so I could land clear for the remaining 20 foot drop. Apparently the physics of pushing away a weighted length of rope near its base is that it returns pretty quickly. The slide down the length of rope was bad. Hitting the branch at the bottom crosswise across the back of my thighs was worse. I suppose it could have been worse - unthinkably worse - if it the branch had been oriented lengthwise, but it was enough that I barely registered the full backflip induced by my legs being caught on the branch that took me the last 10 feet.
I am told that the rest of the island is nice too.
NB: We did not capture the rope jump on video. If some passer by did, they probably sent it in to Croatia's Funniest Home Videos.
NB: Maelcum, a bit Rastafarian character in William Gibson's Neuromancer, always refers to his first person as "I and I", as in "I and I can hack the airlock but from there you have to jack the system manually". I keep hearing echoes of that character each time I reread "Ian and I" above.

Drive without gas
This can only be done in manual transmission.
If you run out of gas and come to a complete stop, switch quickly between the first and second gears. Your car should slowly, but gradually gain speed. If you find yourself not speeding up antmore, switch between the second and third gear, then the third anf fourth gear and so on.
Give it a try!

Cali Swag District's M-Bone: RIP
Cali Swag District's M-Bone died today from gunshot wounds he sustained late last night in a drive-by shooting. He was much more important to the group for his charismatic presence than for his rapping, but frankly that's what matters most about Cali Swag District anyway. He was 22 years old. image via
The group's "Teach Me How To Dougie" is such a pervasive phenomenon that Wolf Blitzer did the dance at the Soul Train Awards. Something tells us we'll look back on ringtone rap much more fondly than it has been received as it happens, but now is not the time to think hard about what this music means. Now is the time to Dougie.

The team at Caixa is very inexperienced in the VC world and are learning by doing.
So it's no wonder they dismissed value propositions for businesses they don't find equivalent.
They are also wary about co-investing with other VCs and may cause problems in the future if you need to include other VCs in future rounds.
Unethical Behavior

Posted by Anonymous on 2014-04-20
One of the partners engaged in some shady behavior recently. He had his associate reach out in the guise of wanting to know more and invest in our company. Turned out he was just collecting intel for a company where he is a board member that ended up releasing a directly competitive product a few months later. Luckily, I suspected something and broke off engaging early on.
Pretty slimy behavior from a VC.

Just pitched Ajit Singh, Yatin Mundkur, and Erez Podoly in Israel.
Meeting held on two small opposing couches in the lobby of an office building, with a noisy waterfall 3 feet away.
As in other reviews here - not very courteous. Running 45 min late, didn't bother calling to tell us.
If they were serious, surely they could have booked a room, or even a hotel lobby.
Zero feedback, very difficult to know if they even understood what we were talking about.

I pitched to Santi over the phone today.
As scheduled, Santi called and from his intro, I realized they are only into B2B. But I asked if he would listen to my pitch and he agreed. He was very engaged, grilled me with questions and in the end offered his advice including encouragement that there are roots in my start-up.
Overall, I felt great about my pitch with Santi. The guy is a gentlemen. Would love to pitch to EmCap again someday.
