During his political career, Brian Tobin always seemed pleased when the lights shone on him.
But in his post-political career as a corporate director -- and in particular as the chairman of the board of New Flyer Industries, a position he's held since 2005 -- he is a study in, well, good corporate governance.
And that means to yield the limelight to the management team.
Tobin chose to make a rare public appearance in Winnipeg Wednesday to talk about the relationship between a board chairman and the CEO.
The event was a regular meeting of the local chapter of the Institute of Corporate Directors, an organization that provided a platform, of sorts, for Tobin's post-political life.
"When I left political life, I wanted another career," he told the crowd of 180 people at the Manitoba Club, more than twice as large as a typical ICD events. "I had been in political life for 22 years and I was 47. I made the decision I didn't want to be another longtime politician that came out and spent time on the edges of whatever, and then really retired."
He made a few calls and a friend at the University of Toronto told him the first class of the ICD's director-designation course was about to begin.
Tobin was in the inaugural class and a confidant of John Marinucci, then the CEO of New Flyer, was also in the class.
"I think my name, purely as a result of going through the program, was put up as a potential director," he said. "I guess the network worked in that case."
A year after taking his seat at the New Flyer board, he became chairman of Consolidated Thompson Iron Mines Ltd., where the former Newfoundland premier helped orchestrate the $4.9-billion sale of that firm to Cliffs Natural Resources Inc. in 2010.
Even though he was recruited by Marinucci who is still on New Flyer's board, Tobin's relationship with the bus-maker's current CEO, Paul Soubry, seems to be filled with the kind of respect, professional thoroughness and good humour of which good corporate partnerships are made.
Tobin seemed to enjoy poking fun at Soubry, alleging he was snubbed by Soubry at his Winnipeg hotel while Soubry fawned over the chairman of the board's compensation committee.
Later he said, "Our management team are standup guys. Last year, they did not get paid a whole bunch because we had a tough year. But no one came and said we missed targets, but pay us anyway."
While the ICD event gave him a chance to brag about his and the company's dedication to good governance, New Flyer really does have a good track record.
Soubry is known for almost maniacal attention to detail and a dedication to operational excellence. For instance, succession planning at New Flyer goes deeper than just senior management; Soubry draws up complicated checklists on levels of briefings provided to the board; and every board member must receive the ICD designation.
In 2012, the company experienced significant declines in profits as its mainly U.S. customers -- municipal transit authorities -- saw their resources jammed up as U.S. governments dealt with the financial crisis. But the orders are starting to come back and in the meantime, New Flyer spent $25 million becoming more efficient. Brazilian bus-maker Marcopolo recently sunk $116 million into the company for a 20 per cent stake and it acquired the parts business from shuttered former competitor Orion.
"When you look at a lot of the wreckages during the last four to five years and the companies that disappeared or were bailed out, a lot of it was because people began to manage for compensation, for bonuses," Tobin said. "People stopped taking the view of... building for the next generation."
But not New Flyer; with Soubry at the helm and Tobin in the background making sure he knows where he's going.

Water companies face a significant challenge in their next asset management period – how to manage their network more efficiently, for less, with better customer outcomes. In much of the country, this is critical as regions annually face the risk of drought while losing up to a quarter of supply to leakage. Technology is helping to enable this drive to improve – from smarter water metering to remote asset monitoring, water companies are beginning to be able to understand their infrastructure better and target investment. It also has huge potential to change customer behaviour and reduce water consumption, if rolled out effectively. This webinar will bring together innovators in the industry to look at the different approaches to leakage reduction and asset management across the UK and weigh up the benefits and challenges of each scheme.

Marysville Getchell Chargers defeat Lakewood, Granite Falls | SLIDESHOW
ARLINGTON — Marysville Getchell, Lakewood and Granite Falls wrestling competed in Arlington High School's double-dual event on Dec. 14 with the chance to show what their teams were made of.
"Let's make a statement of who we are, right now," Lakewood coach Tom O'Hara told his wrestlers before the matches began. "Leave it all on the mat."
Getchell impressed by taking down Lakewood, 43-26, to open the night and finished strong against Granite Falls, 39-30. Lakewood lost its second match, the Crosstown Showdown, against Arlington to finish 0-2.
"We had some guys out and (Arlington) had some guys out," O'Hara said. "It was a tough night, but a good one. I thought we wrestled our best in the second match. We fought hard and didn't give up, but what we didn't do is the moves we worked on in practice."
Against Lakewood, Getchell seniors Luis Cordona, Daniel Reznikov and Zack Perkins, junior Billy Almachar and freshman Riley Kalamen pinned their opponents. Juniors Cody Stone and Alfredo Diaz won by decisions after three rounds. Freshman Rashad Abu-Al-Halaweh won by forfeit.
Getchell recorded pins from Reznikov and Perkins against Granite Falls. They lost five bouts in the match but Alex Summerfield, Dylan Smith and Alfredo Diaz won by forfeit.
"Go back and talk it up at school," said Getchell coach Todd Freeman to his team that had improved its record to 5-3 and secured a winning record through the holiday break. "You've earned it."
Lakewood quickly found itself trading pins with Arlington in the Crosstown Showdown.
Arlington sophomore Wes Conley pinned Lakewood's Hunter Olsen after 1:04. Cougar Sawyer Almasi pinned Eagle Conner Holdoway after 3:27. Lakewood's Tanner Stewart pinned Brock-Anderson after 1:02. Eagle sophomore Scotty Bardell pinned Jeremy Peterson after 18 seconds. Lakewood's Nolan Bingaman pinned Arlington senior Blake Thuline after 3:47. Cougar Waylon Gwyther pinned Davis after 1:16. Eagle senior Shawn Berg pinned Nick Kragseth after 1:52. Chase pinned Lakewood's Dan Brower after 5:11. Ferro pinned Cougar Brandon Kilham after 1:29. Arlington senior Blake McPherson pinned Lakewood's Jeff Harris after 3:54. Cougar Tug Giorgio pinned Eagle freshman Gareth Henderson after 1:26 and Lakewood's Tristan Nelson pinned Arlington sophomore Tanner Gaskin after 1:39. Arlington freshman Clayton Hunter received a forfeit victory and Thomas outlasted Lakewood's Drake Mosteller, 8-5.

That contributed to Bachus's lowest primary finish since his first run, in 1992, when he took 37 percent of the vote before winning 59 percent in the runoff. Since then, Bachus has run unopposed for the GOP nomination six of nine times and never got lower than 76 percent, his 2010 result, in the other three.
Bachus's survival will calm skittish nerves in the House, which braced for a long season of primary upheaval last week. In the nation's first congressional primary on March 6, Rep. Jean Schmidt, R-Ohio, fell to a GOP challenger in the 2nd District after several cycles of poor results. However, Schmidt's decision to spend election day in Washington exemplified her lethargic efforts to protect her seat. By contrast, Bachus had spent over $1.5 million on his primary by the Feb. 22 pre-election reporting deadline.
Bachus can also count his win as a victory over the Campaign for Primary Accountability, the non-partisan, anti-incumbent super PAC that contributed to Schmidt's defeat last week. CPA spent over $200,000 attacking Bachus with TV ads, robocalls, and mail over the first two weeks of March.

PS: Anything to help find a singularity of purpose.
JG: Given our topic here, I shouldn't go without telling this story. Toward the end of the movie, we come to that scene where I visit the grave of my daughter, and I flip out. That had been written in several different ways; we'd talked about different approaches. So we're shooting the scene and I'm on the ground by the grave, crying, and Paul says, "I think you eat the flowers." So I ate the flowers. And then he says, "I think you should pick up some dirt and put that in your mouth. Eat the dirt." And I said "OK, OK, that sounds great, really great, really crazy. Do we have some edible dirt?" And he says, "Jeff, just eat it, eat it." I say, "No, no, that's horrible. That's bad for you." And he says, "Jeff, Jeff, look," and he leans down and scoops up some dirt, and he eats it. So what could I do? I ate the dirt. That's a partnership. That's collaboration.

Dallas, TX Parents Pull Their Children Out of School to Wake of First Ever Diagnosed Case of Ebola
Parents are pulling their children from Dallas, TX schools in wake of Ebola … Wouldn't you?
In the wake of the first diagnosed case of Ebola in the United States and their children's possible contact with individuals who may have come in contact with the infected patient, some parents are being cautious and pulling their children from schools.
Some Dallas parents pulled their children out of school Wednesday after health officials said five area children had come into contact with an Ebola patient over the weekend.
The five children were kept at home Wednesday, but that did not stop families from picking up their kids out of fears they might be vulnerable to illness, according to local news reports.
Parents at Sam Tasby Middle School and LL Hotchkiss Elementary were seen picking up their children following Wednesday's press conference.
Dallas health officials had insisted that no other children were at risk of developing Ebola and urged families to keep their kids in school.
The Ebola patient was identified in news reports as Thomas Eric Duncan, a Liberian man who had shared a residence with an Ebola-stricken woman prior to his travel to the United States.

Michelle Obama and the Cupcake Police Put an End to School Fundraiser Bake Sales
Could Liberals just stay the hell out of our lives?
Now bake sales for school fundraiser are public enemy number one for liberals. Thanks to the 2010 Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act championed by first lady Michelle Obama, school kids will no longer be able to have cupcake bake sales to raise money. Thanks Michelle, because apples, celery and carrot sticks are not quite the money makers as brownies, cookies and cupcakes. So what does Michelle Obama have against school children raising money for school trips or band and athletic equipment?
Good grief, what ever happened to the America I grew up in where kids could have a bake sale to raise money for their class trip right after playing a game of dodge-ball?
Maybe Michelle should start with you own husband first?
But the sales won't be so sweet starting this fall. Campus bake sales—a mainstay of school fundraisers—are going on a diet. A federal law that aims to curb childhood obesity means that, in dozens of states, bake sales must adhere to nutrition requirements that could replace cupcakes and brownies with fruit cups and granola bars.
Jeff Ellsworth, principal of the kindergarten through eighth-grade school in Chapman, Neb., isn't quite sure how to break the news to the kids. "The chocolate bars are a big seller," said Mr. Ellsworth.
The restrictions that took effect in July stem from the 2010 Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act championed by first lady Michelle Obama and her "Let's Move!" campaign. The law overhauled nutrition standards affecting more than 30 million children. Among the changes: fatty french fries were out, while baked sweet potato fries were deemed to be fine.
The law also required the U.S. Department of Agriculture to set standards for all food and beverages sold during the school day, which includes vending machines, snack carts and daytime fundraisers. It allowed for "infrequent" fundraisers, and states were allowed to decide how many bake sales they would have that didn't meet nutrition standards.
42 Year Old Texas Middle School Teacher Felicia Smith Gives Birthday Lap Dance to Male Old Student … Charged with Improper Relationship with a Student
42 year old Felicia Smith, a middle school teacher at Stovall Middle School in Texas, has admitted to giving a male student a full contact birthday lap dance in her third period class in front of the entire class. The student was placed in a chair at the front of the room where Smith gave him a full contact lap dance, complete with rotating and rubbing her butt against him, rubbing her hands all over his body and the teacher getting on her knees in front of him and placed her head between his legs. Felicia Smith has been charged with improper relationship with a student.
So why did she admit to such an act, this is the age of social media and smart phones, there was a video made of the incident of course.
Felicia Smith, 42, was charged with improper relationship with student.
It all happened at Stovall Middle School on February 26, according to Aldine ISD police.
According to a male student, "Ms. Smith" grabbed his journal and stopped him from talking to his friends as he walked into his third-period class. He said he sat at his desk, and after the tardy bell rang, she placed a chair in front of the room. Music started playing and the entire class of middle school students began yelling and telling him to sit down. It was his birthday.
The student said he sat down and Ms. Smith gave him a full contact lap dance, rotating her buttocks against him and rubbing her hands all over his body. Ms. Smith also got on her knees in front of him and placed her head between his legs. The student admitted that he slapped Ms. Smith on the buttocks a few times.
At the end of the dance, Ms. Smith wrapped her arms around the student and he gave her bottom another squeeze. She hugged him and said "I love you, baby. Happy birthday," according to documents.

The War on CHRISTmas: Parents Livid as Long Island School Removes Words From Silent Night as Too Offensive
At Kings Point Intermediate School on Long Island, NY it was ok for the liberal school edumacators thought it was perfectly okay to offend Christians by sanitizing the Christmas song 'Silent Night' of all references to God so they did not offend others. Yup, because the birth of Jesus, the son of God is just of darn offensive. ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!! What kind of IDIOTS do we have running schools these days? Turns out they did offend many people, the parents that were wondering what song they were listening to their kids butcher.
There is anger at a Long Island school because they changed the words to the song "Silent Night."
The district says it was to avoid offending people but it seems like it did the opposite.
Parents are so confused that 5th graders at RJO Intermediate School in Kings Park recently performed the song "Silent Night" with all religious words like Christ, God and Jesus taken out.
Dan Gallo, a parent of one of the students was completely offended by it.
"There is so many Christmas songs. Why would you change the lyrics to something that is very near and dear to so many people?" said Gallo.
Another parent, Tina Byrne, doesn't have a problem with what the school did.
The school district says the school principal and the choral director decided to teach the students the altered version.
Watch the VIDEO below and try to figure out just what song these kids are singing.
Silent night, Holy night
All is calm, all is bright
'Round yon virgin , mother and child
Holy infant so, tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace,
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Silent night, Holy night
Shepherds quake, at the sight
Glory streams from heaven afar
Heavenly, hosts sings Hallelujah.
Christ the Savior is born,
Christ the Savior is born.
Silent night, Holy night
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace,
Jesus, Lord at thy birth,
Jesus, Lord at thy birth.
I sense a pendulum swing back the other direction of people are getting real sick and tired of this PC nonsense.

What a Message from Portland, Oregan … City Shuts Down 11 Year Old Madison Root Selling Mistletoe to Fund Braces, But OK to Beg for Money
All 11 yer old Madison Root wanted to do was help her dad pay for her braces that were going to cost $4800 by selling mistletoe. It's Christmas time, what better gift to sell than freshly picked mistletoe in a cute package with a red bow? Well, one would think. That was until she decided to see her mistletoe next to the Skidmore Fountain in Downtown Portland, Oregon and a private security guard asked Madison to stop selling because city ordinance bans commerce like that without proper approval. UNREAL … papers, where are your papers!!!
I am sure this was the intent of the ordinance and it was meant for 11 year old's. More so, I am sure this is what Our Founding Fathers had intended when forming this great nation. But in this day and age government interference and regulation have increased so much that they would squash a little girl's efforts and entrepreneurial spirit to help her dad pay for her braces. Especially, in this day and age when we hear stories of so many young kids that just expect things, Madison wanted to help. Oh yea, did we tell you that Madison Root was not allowed to sell her mistletoe without approval, but it would have been OK for her to beg. There is a message to teach the young.
She's hoping to raise money to chip in for her braces. The dentist says they'll cost $4,800.
"I felt like I could help my dad with the money," she said.
Madison and her dad bagged up the mistletoe and started selling them next to the Skidmore Fountain in Downtown Portland on Saturday morning.
That's also where the Portland Saturday Market holds its weekly venue.
A private security guard asked Madison to stop selling because city ordinance bans commerce like that without proper approval.
"I wouldn't think I'd have any problems because people are asking for money, people are selling stuff, this is a public place," said Madison.
And she's right — to a point.
In fact, we saw people protesting, hold signs, playing music, and begging all over the area on Sunday morning as well.
The Saturday Market is incredibly diverse.
You can buy whistles, order crepes and sign a marijuana petition all without walking more than ten steps.
But you can't open a business without going through the market's formal application process. The market sets rules for vendors which Madison agrees make sense.
Begging is different.

SEMA6A, NT (SEMA6A, KIAA1368, SEMAQ, Semaphorin-6A, Semaphorin VIA, Semaphorin-6A-1) |
Description: SEMA6A belongs to a subfamily characterized by an extracellular semaphorin domain, a transmembrane domain, and a long cytoplasmic tail. Members of this class can repel sympathetic and dorsal root ganglion axons in vitro, consistent with a traditional role as guidance signals. However, the length of the cytoplasmic tail, which includes an EVL-binding site in SEMA6A and an Src-binding site in SEMA6B, suggests that these semaphorins may also function as receptors. SEMA6A is expressed in developing neural tissue and is required for proper development of the thalamocortical projection. SEMA6A directly links the Ena/VASP and the semaphorin protein families since the SEMA6A protein is capable of selective binding to the protein EVL (Ena/VASP-like protein). Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot, ELISA Recommended Dilution: ELISA: 1:1,000 Western Blot: 1:100-500 Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. |

Seriously though, what are most people's opinions on Brantly, outside of the multiple food references and general corniness? Seems like he offers up pretty good insight into the mechanics of the game, ie telling us the Cueto is pulling off towards 1st and that is when his fastball gets high and flat a couple of starts ago, and telling us when its better. He mentioned something about something he saw wrong w/ a particular batter the other day, perhaps Votto.

Two luxury retailers: Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue. One desirable market: Houston. The fight for the hearts and credit cards of couture clotheshorses like Lynn Wyatt and Carolyn Farb officially begins next month, but already the fur is flying.

CVE-IDs have a new format –**Learn more**
CVE Data Sources and CoverageCurrent data sources, product coverage, and coverage goals for CVE are noted below. A list of past data sources has been archived for informational purposes. CVE Coverage GoalsCVE's coverage goals are stated in terms of sources of information (e.g., websites, vendor advisories, vulnerability databases) and products (e.g., Microsoft Office, Red Hat Enterprise Linux). SourcesCVE separates sources into two major groups: (1) "Full Coverage," for those that should be fully covered; and (2) "Partial Coverage," for those that should be partially covered. Full CoverageFor nearly all issues disclosed by the source that could be associated with a CVE entry, there will be an associated CVE entry, regardless of the criticality of the issue. Although a source is named as Full Coverage, we purposely use the phrasing "nearly all issues disclosed" to allow the flexibility to potentially postpone coverage of minor issues. Partial CoverageThe source will be actively monitored but issues will be processed and associated with CVE entries based on a variety of editorial judgments. As a bridge to the product coverage goals (see Products below), we further sub-divide each of these lists into two sub-lists:
NOTE: MITRE actively monitors many sources beyond this list. These sources include things like blogs from vulnerability researchers, conference proceedings, and media outlets. Monitoring this set of sources has proven to be productive for and informative to the CVE analysts. Which sources are of most utility is highly dependent on a given situation. As such, we don't believe it of general utility to list them all specifically. Full Coverage Sources - Vendor Related
Full Coverage Sources - Other
Partial Coverage Sources - Vendor Related
Partial Coverage Sources - Other
ProductsAll products listed are considered to be "must have." This means that we will ensure that a CVE-ID is issued for any public disclosure for the product provided that the following to provisions are met:
Must-Have ProductsThe products listed below are stated as "vendor: product name" where the product name may be a specific product, set of products, or "all."

Actor Aamir Khan, who plays a cop in his next film "Talaash", says the script, which is thrilling yet emotional, attracted him most to the project.
"For me, it was the script. When I was listening to the script, I was very stressed and tense as I could not predict what is going to happen (in the story). So I found the story very exciting," said Aamir.
The actor, who spoke on the sidelines of a recent event here, says the movie goes beyond being a mere thriller.
"It's not only a drama and a suspense, but also a very emotional story. We all love someone or the other, who is close to us - our parents, our children, husband or wife, or lover. We are always scared of losing them," he said.
Directed by Reema Kagti, "Talaash" also stars Rani Mukerji and Kareena Kapoor. It hits the screens Nov 30.

10. Never come out of your room. Except to eat at the ARA. Alone.
9. Facebook stalk every girl you know. Bring up things you see on her profile in an everyday conversation.
8. Instant message every person on your buddy list as soon as they sign on. Just to say "hi, sup?" End the conversation there.
7. Grow a C.S. beard, without being a C.S. major.
6. Do the Nerd Run everywhere. Even when you aren't late.
5. Be secretive about your notes. Whenever anyone tries to look at them, pull the notebook away quickly, hold it to your chest, and tell them to go away.
4. Sit alone in your room. In the dark.
3. Question your roommate incessantly when they come home late.
2. Memorize the class schedule of all your friends and the person you like. Wait outside their classroom. Everyday.
1. Wander around the girls' floor without talking to anyone. Take notes. Repeat every hour.

Class #5 (Feb. 7) Reading Questions - Particle
Physics, Secs. 11-14, Handout pgs. 23-30
1. Explain why the magnetic field vector (H)
shown in Fig 11.1 points in the same direction in both the "real
world" and the "mirror world". Vectors of this type are known as "axial" or
"pseudo" vectors. [Hint:
how do you create a magnetic field?]
If the magnetic field was parallel to the mirror plane how would the direction
in the real and mirror worlds compare? [Comment: angular momentum is also an axial vector and
thus the nuclear spin in this figure has the same behavior as the magnetic
In the Wu beta-decay experiment most of betas are found to be emitted in
the direction opposite to the nuclear spin direction. Explain how this simple result demonstrates that beta-decay
violates parity conservation.
In what sense are neutrinos left-handed? Describe the experiment that first demonstrated this.
Are there any right-handed neutrinos in
the universe?
4. Describe the experiment of Lederman, Schwartz,
and Steinberger that provided evidence for the existence of two different types
of neutrino. [Note: The steel
shielding used in this experiment came from a dismantled battleship and was 44
feet thick!]
The neutral kaon ... what is it?
Under what conditions is a neutral kaon a "kaon" and when is
it a (K1+K2)? What experimental observation motivated the idea of a K1 and K2
Explain the experiment of Turlay et al. that first demonstrated the
violation of CP-symmetry in Kaon decay.
How does this result establish a clear distinction between matter and

We LGBT folk and our straight allies understand all too well what President Obama meant today when speaking in reference to the Declaration of Independence's promise of Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness: "History tells us that while these truths are self-evident, they are not self-executing".

Obama's Inaugural Speech Misleadingly Suggests End to Perpetual War |
By: Kevin Gosztola Monday January 21, 2013 2:02 pm |
President Barack Obama delivered his inaugural address for his second term. Part of the speech highlighted war. He suggested, quite absurdly, a "decade of war is now ending" and later described how Americans believe there is no need for "perpetual war."
A Surprisingly Liberal Inaugural Address |
By: Jon Walker Monday January 21, 2013 1:05 pm |
President Obama is at least rhetorically starting his second term on more liberal note. His inaugural address touched on a litany of progressive goals including climate change, LGBT rights, voting access, equal pay, gun control and immigration reform.
King: I Have a Dream. Obama: I Have a Drone. |
By: Norman Solomon Wednesday January 16, 2013 1:20 pm |
A simple twist of fate has set President Obama's second Inaugural Address for January 21, the same day as the Martin Luther King Jr. national holiday.
Anti-Gay Pastor No Longer on Inaugural Program |
By: Teddy Partridge Thursday January 10, 2013 9:48 am |
What a difference four years makes, I guess….
Anti-gay pastor Louie Giglio is no longer scheduled to speak from the same podium Barack Obama will use to address the nation in his second Inaugural Address. Unlike the intransigence encountered by LGBT forces arrayed against Pastor Rick™ Warren four years ago, this controversy lasted only about 24 hours, with a swift and acceptable resolution.
Resisting Racism and Militarism in 2013 |
By: David Swanson Wednesday January 2, 2013 7:01 pm |
January 21st will be an odd day in the United States. We'll honor Martin Luther King Jr. and bestow another 4-year regime on the man who, in his Nobel peace prize acceptance speech said that Martin Luther King Jr. had been wrong — that those who follow his example "stand idle in the face of threats."
French Lesson: After Winning an Election a Candidate Soon Takes Office |
By: Jon Walker Monday May 7, 2012 2:10 pm |
Yesterday Francois Hollande won the second round of the French Presidential election and will be sworn in on May 15th. That is just nine days after his election. This is the way things should work and how they do work in almost every democracy, but it's not how the United States works. We refuse to make even modest reforms to the silliest and outdated Constitutional remnants from a pre-modern era.

Comes down to pure ego on the HC and OC....
Sounds like someone who is still chapped that Vince Young didn't make it. You have to be able to ..
.. take snaps from under center in the NFL. Anything else is just gimmickry that is eventually figured out and exposed by most defensive coordinators.
Bottom line .. these superstar college QBs that end up being busts, never learned how to "read" an NFL defense, either because they were too stupid, or didn't want to put in the effort.
Do I have any confidence that any of the current college crop will turn out to be a successful NFL QB?
None whatsoever.

5 years ago Comments: After the riots against the Algerian fans of the Egyptians in Sudan and tried to assault them with murder and serious injuries, badly injured I ask Algeria to prevent from playing in the World Cup. Because football has to have fun and not for fighting with fans as they did the Egyptians. When I went to the Egyptian masses to encourage her in the Sudan and surprised the audience tries to Algerian abuse death after the game, as happened to the Egyptian national team players, who received death threats. These were not a football match Pal Algerian terrorism was on the ground of the Sudan. This is against the principle of FIFA (Fair Play). And I ask the FIFA Algeria deprived of playing in the World Cup.
Mahitab, United Kingdom
5 years ago Comments: Such inhuman acts must not be tolerated giving the fact that the african football assocation negotiated a fair play agreement. Terrorising Egyptian citizens around the world and threatening the Egyptian embassys in France and Algeria is wrong and not acceptable by all means. Each and every person in the world, not only egyptian must speak the truth and not allow such behaviour and actions from any country. I ask who ever it may concern if not to disqualify Algeria from the 2010 world cup, but to atleast agree on a punishment to prevent them or any other team of repeating such actions.

This page holds links to information
about the DOAV: "Daughter Of All Vacations."
DOAV was our three-week family vacation to the east coast with our five
kids in June 2005, in conjunction with my sabbatical from
SGI. The name was a take-off
from our MOAV ("Mother Of All Vacations"), which was our nickname for
our six-week trip to the west coast in 2000 (back in the good ol'
days when SGI sabbaticals were twice as long).
Since this trip was chronicled in our local newspaper, we get asked for
advice on family vacations. The biggest thing is to "just do it!" It
doesn't have to be very expensive...we got by for $22 per day per person
in Washington, D.C.! And in New York City, we paid only $70 per night
for a spot for our pop-up camper with a view of the Statue of Liberty.
(I'll bet you didn't know you could sleep for $10 per night per person so
near Manhattan!)
Our final score was
19 states visited, 4361 miles driven, 335 gallons of gas
used, 21 days on the road, and 4398 photos taken. (Don't worry, I
narrowed down the photos to the Top Thousand in the links below!)
Here are some links to more information about our trip:

Abdul—Jalil Khalil of the Shiite party Al Wefaq said two of its former lawmakers - Mater Mater and Jawad Fairoz - were taken into custody on Monday night.
Authorities in Bahrain arrested two former parliament members of the Gulf kingdom's main Shiite opposition party as part of a wide crackdown on dissent, a senior party leader said on Tuesday.
Abdul—Jalil Khalil of the Shiite party Al Wefaq said two of its former lawmakers - Mater Mater and Jawad Fairoz - were taken into custody on Monday night. Mr. Khalil said he does not know the details of their arrest.
Al Wefaq has been the leading political backer of Bahrain's uprising, inspired by revolts in Tunisia and Egypt earlier this year.
Bahrain's Sunni rulers declared martial law on March 15 to crush weeks of demonstrations by the country's Shiite majority, which has demanded greater freedoms, equal rights and a constitutional monarchy with an elected government.
At least 30 people have died since the protests began in mid February. Among the dead are also four opposition supporters who died in custody, including a blogger.
Hundreds of Shiite protesters, opposition leaders, human rights activists and Shiite professionals such as doctors and lawyers have been detained since emergency rule was imposed.
Several members of the country's national football team were also detained and another 150 athletes, coaches and referees were suspended since April 5 for their alleged involvement in street protests.
Last month, the tiny island nation's Sunni rulers also ordered Al Wefaq dismantled.
Authorities also accused Bahrain's main opposition newspaper, Al Wasat, of threatening national security. The paper will be forced to shut down next week and three of its former top editors will go on trial on May 19.
And on Thursday, four anti—government protesters were convicted of killing two policemen during the protests and sentenced to death by a military court.
Bahrain is the home of the U.S. Navy's 5th Fleet, Washington's main counterweight against Iran's expanding military influence in the oil—rich Gulf.
Al Wefaq is the most influential party in Bahrain's seven—member Shiite opposition. Eighteen members of the party have been elected to the nation's 40—member parliament last year although the legislators resigned from the body in March to protest the government crackdown.
The parliament is Bahrain's only elected body. It holds limited authority since all the country's decisions - including the appointment of government ministers - rest with the king.
The Al Khalifa family has ruled Bahrain for more than 200 years.

Title: | Lab Report 2 DESC 9115 |
Authors: | Johnson, Samuel |
Issue Date: | 8-May-2012 |
Abstract: | In my last lab report I discussed the importance of the basic digital delay, how it was created and how it is used in music, film, and even in scientific experiments. I explained the use of FIR and IIR comb filters to create feed forward and feed back loops in order to create a natural sounding delay. In this report Im going to take it to the next level and talk about delay based modulated effects. It is important to replicate these delayed sounds in a realistic way and realistic way to let the listener know what is happening, rather than having an unnatural sounding output. By using a mix of acoustical phenomena and digital algorithms, a digital system will be able to take an input signal and replicate some of these sounds caused by a "digital delay" and modulation. |

A dry cold front that brought gusty winds to the region will leave behind some cooler temperatures.
