Bishop: Olympic team will be 'on my mind quite a bit' this week
Dec 27, 2013, 11:57 AM EDT
In five days, USA Hockey will announce its roster for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia — a timeline Ben Bishop is all too aware of.
"It'd be a huge honor, something that nobody can take away from you," Bishop told the Tampa Bay Times about the possibility of making Team USA. "It'd be pretty cool to say that you're an Olympian.
"I'm just trying to play my best right now and make it a hard decision on them. [It'll be] on my mind quite a bit."
And so it should be, as no American goalie has seen his stock rise more this year than Bishop.
After a tough stretch with USA Hockey that saw him lose his No. 1 gig at the World Championships and fail to receive an invite to the summer orientation camp, Bishop has been one of the biggest surprises of the 2013-14 campaign, posting a 20-5-2 record while raking fifth in the NHL in GAA (1.93), fifth in save percentage (.935) and tied for first in shutouts, with three.
His inspired play led American GM David Poile to announce that Bishop was "absolutely" in he Team USA mix.
"He's played terrific," Poile said when asked about Bishop's candidacy. "He's definitely on our radar."
The big x-factor will be if Bishop's done enough in a small window of opportunity, given this is his first extended stretch as a starting netminder in the NHL.
Most pundits figure Jonathan Quick will be on the team and the No. 1 heading into Sochi, with the other spots remaining up for grabs between the likes of Bishop, Ryan Miller, Tim Thomas, Jimmy Howard and Cory Schneider.

Miller #1 Quick #2 Bishop #3
anyone who thinks different…is entitled to their own opinion.
- jpelle82 - Dec 27, 2013 at 12:14 PM
will quick be ready is the question…in my humble opinion…if he is and had some good reps i would want him in there above miller
- sjsblitz - Dec 27, 2013 at 12:47 PM
-Quick is coming off an injury, if he can hit the ground running that's our #1 if not go to option 2
-Miller has been off but that's because of Buffalo's D, if you trust USA's D to filter out those shots there's your #1, if not proceed
-3rd option has been between Schneider and Anderson, both of which have been far from stellar this season.
-Lastly there's Bishop who in my opinion should be our #1 with the way he's been playing this season.
But there's our top netminders in my opinion. If im leaving anyone out please enlighten me
- cameltoews - Dec 27, 2013 at 1:18 PM
I agree miller, quick, bishop with Tim Thomas odd man out
- flyerspsu - Dec 27, 2013 at 2:40 PM
Miller – Quick – Bishop … Schneider as the odd man out
cameltoews, not sure how Thomas could be the odd man out ahead of Schneider, Howard and Anderson

(Recent) History Class: Paul Ryan Interviews for Grey Room
"Cybernetic Guerrilla Warfare Revisited: From Klein Worms to Relational Circuits" In an interview by Felicity D. Scott and Mark Wasiuta for the Summer 2011 issue of GreyRoom, artist and writer Paul Ryan talks about the time he spent working with Marshall McLuhan, the early days of video art, and his work.
"At that moment [1967] I thought of myself as a writer. I was holed up on the Lower East Side of Manhattan with my typewriter, trying to write, and I heard McLuhan on the raso saying, 'of course, in this electronic age of computers, satellites, radio, and television, the writer is no longer somebody holed up in his garret pounding a typewriter!' It stopped me cold. I had to find out what this guy was about."
Ryan gives a fascinating account of video art in the 1960s, from the Howard Wise Gallery, to securing money from the New York State Council for the Arts for video art at a time when no such funding was readily available, and tells the story of meeting the heir to the IBM fortune who admired McLuhan and wanted to give him two Sony Portapaks that both ended in Ryan's hands to "experiment" with.
Artist book based on the Triadic Tapes, 1976 (via the Smithsonian Archives of American Art)
Ryan wrote extensively about video art, cybernetics, and technology; his work was then featured in some seminal exhibitions, such as "TV as a Creative Medium" at the Howard Wise Gallery (1969) and "Primitivism in Twentieth Century Art" at MoMA (1984). (Here's a 1969 letter by Ryan to Howard Wise.)
"I would avoid the term visual to describe video. You can see a bottle of perfume, but sight is not the sense it really affects. You can see video images but their effect is primarily kinesthetic or proprioceptive when you see yourself. Video is about perceiving events with the nervous system, not visualizing in a pictorial way."

Transformer Fire (2008) originated online and was then translated to the gallery space for a show at artMovingProjects in Brooklyn. It generated a lot of interest in a past Rhizome blog post. Can you discuss this process of transforming a net art piece into the gallery space?
The Transformer Fire videos were originally posted on a group blog called Spirit Surfers, and the format of the blog limits the size, presentation, and bandwidth. So when I was preparing the video for the show, I optimized it for the screen that Aron would be using, rendering the videos in higher quality and in portrait orientation for a sideways monitor to better fit the vertically oriented stack of 5 videos, and I matched the resolution of the video to the monitor so I could control exactly how things were scaled. The presentation was a bit cleaner and clearer than on the blog.
Your interest in making music led you to design an iPhone music sampler app, and then an app that is an artwork and a musical instrument. Do you follow the development of art apps? Do you think it could become a new distribution channel for art?
I've looked at some art apps, but personally I think games are the best art in the App Store. I think Cookie Dozer Thanksgiving is more visually and mechanically interesting than any art app I've seen. Maybe I'm missing the best art apps because I don't know how to find them. I think that I would be more inclined to say that apps could become a new medium for art rather than a channel. I can't think of a lot of existing art that could be distributed and viewed properly with an iPhone ...
Before the New York Art Book Fair
The sixth edition of the New York Art Book Fair is approaching, taking place at MoMA PS1 between September 30 and October 2. At a time when the idea of publishing and the production of print media are constantly discussed, the New York Art Book Fair allows us a yearly survey of efforts in the field of art publishing, as well as the ability to reevaluate and reconsider publishing houses and projects that interest us on a regular basis, and a variety of events, from book signings to lectures and screenings.
The Fair features more than two hundred exhibitors: publishers, magazines, independent artists, art institutions, and distributors. In order to facilitate wandering through this expansive event, we rounded up a selection of publishing initiatives, highlighting those that survey new media art, have a strong online presence, or use technology in interesting ways.
Piracy Project / AND Publishing. Based in London, the Piracy Project is a publishing and exhibition project that organizes workshops, lectures, and open calls for pirated book projects, all directed at creating a platform from which to think about ideas of copying, re-editing, paraphrasing, and so forth.
Badlands Unlimited. Founded by artist Paul Chan, Badlands Unlimited publishes both e-books and physical artists' books. The e-books are interactive and unlike many other art e-books, take full advantage of what the technology offers by including text, images, and films. See Sarah Hromack's interview with Paul Chan here.
Half Letter Press. Initiated by Chicago-based collective Temporary Services, Half Letter Press has an online reading room with some of the best links on the internet, and they publish and distribute books on art and theory.

Released: Sep 01st, 2002
Running Time: 104
Director: Brad Austin
Company: Catalina Video
Cast: Brad McGuire, Sharon Kane, Haven Philips, Chad Hunt, Todd Shore, Steve Rambo, Raul Tasco, Jack Sanders, Dante Foxx, Kurt Wagner, Rick Hollander, Deacon Frost, Michelangelo Risi, Jaime (II)
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: Gay and Bi
An easy rent/sell in new releases; stock heavily.
Poor Steve Rambo... this sex-pig pilot just can't get a break. As the sex-charged plane from the original Cockpit crashes into a hick-infested forest, Rambo takes a lot of flack from angry passengers: if he wasn't so busy taking it up the ass, maybe they wouldn't have crashed. But if the plane hadn't crashed, we wouldn't get to see Rambo feast on Chad Hunt's huge hard-on in the opening outdoor scene. With Brad McGuire (who has the most beautiful blue eyes to go along with his hard uncut dick) watching and putting on a hot j.o. session, Rambo slurps up Hunt, whose hard dick throbs as he returns the oral gratification. Rambo then rides Hunt while McGuire cums on his own face in a glorious display.
There's a lot more to find in this comedic sequel, like the suck session put on by three search party rescue workers (Jaime, Dante Foxx and Todd Shore), and Hunt getting serviced again by some hick brothers (McGuire and Kurt Wagner). Sure, there's something creepy about McGuire egging on his brother - who is sucking away on Hunt - by saying, "That's it, little brother, just like Mama taught you!" But this is Chad Hunt's dick, so who cares? And the four-man finale, where some weary passengers suck and fuck for survival (gotta keep that body heat up!) is a fitting finish. Just try to keep your eyes off Jack Sanders' hard-on, whether it's stuck in Deacon Frost's mouth, pounding Michelangelo Risi's ass or spurting cum on Raul Tasco.

Isha extends helping hand in rural areas
L.N. Revathy
Coimbatore , Feb. 3
A PLAN to rejuvenate rural India has been rolled out jointly by Isha and Times Foundation.
The multi-faceted project entitled `Action for Rural Rejuvenation' is aimed at revitalising the human spirit and bringing about a transformation in the rural human populace. "It is an inner-engineering project," the founder of Isha, Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev, told Business Line.
Initiated about four months ago, the project, in its first phase, is addressing the health problems in rural areas. "The first mobile clinic with 10 trucks with a team of volunteers commenced service in October last. The interior of the truck has been customised as a health clinic. Trained nurses, a pharmacist and a yoga teacher assist the medical professionals (all volunteers). The mobile dispensaries also guide the rural populace on home remedies for self-care and self-sufficiency. Our volunteers spend a fortnight in the field, visiting one village after another. One truck covers 60 to 70 villages in 30 days," he said.
He explained that a service vehicle aided the operation of each fleet of four mobile health clinics serving within an operational zone. "The vehicle not only aids in the overall project's operation, but also acts as a satellite dispensary for remote villages separated from healthcare not by distance but rugged terrain," Jaggi Vasudev said.
"We are planning to initiate 1,800 trucks in a span of 10 years. By 2005, we hope to put 100 trucks on track. It is a costly exercise and we need a dedicated team to take the message across," he said, and disclosed that Isha Foundation was in talks with automobile manufacturers seeking some relief.
"We are trying to rope in corporates. As of now, some volunteers and renowned corporates have sponsored 30 trucks. But our recurring costs are mounting - costing close to Rs 40 lakh on purchase of medicines, fuel and incidental expenses. The service extended by the dedicated workforce, however, cannot be quantified," he added.

HGVs failing to fit hi-tech cyclist saversPublished at 12:01AM, May 28 2015
Cyclists are still being put at risk because HGV operators are shunning potentially life-saving technology, according to researchers
Police holding a 38-year-old man on suspicion of killing a married couple in an alleged hit-and-run have been granted more time to question him.
The suspect, who has not been identified, handed himself in to police hours after Ross and Clare Simons were killed on Sunday.
Mr Simons, 34, and his 30-year-old wife - described by friends as "two peas in a pod" - died when their tandem bicycle was in collision with a Citroën Picasso car in Hanham, near Bristol, that was being followed by a police car in Hanham, Bristol.
An Avon and Somerset Police spokesman said: "Officers questioning a 38-year-old man on suspicion of death by dangerous driving have been granted further time to question him.
"A woman, aged 35, also arrested, has been released on police bail pending further inquiries.
"House-to-house inquiries continue and officers continue to appeal to anyone who witnessed this collision, or anyone who saw a blue Citroen Picasso in the area shortly before, to contact us on 101."
The Independent Police Complaints Commission is also investigating the incident because an Avon & Somerset Constabulary vehicle was involved.
Friends said that Mr and Mrs Simons had been trying to start a family without success and were delighted that they had been approved for IVF treatment.
Diane Pullin said that the Simons had been for dinner with her daughter Samantha on Saturday night. She said: "My daughter has helium balloons at the top of her stairs wishing them luck and she can't even look at them. She said to me, 'How can I be with them on Saturday night and they're not here now?'. They were trying for children and they had just been told they could have fertility treatment. They were so happy on Saturday night."
Mr Simons, who worked for his father Ed's building and property firm, and Mrs Simons, who worked in a fashion store in the Cabot Circus shopping centre, were on their way to Mrs Simons's parents' house for a meal when they were killed.
The couple, from Staple Hill, in Bristol, were described as "the nicest neighbours you could hope for". Their mountain bikes had recently been stolen and they bought the tandem to replace them. Sunday was one of the first occasions they had ridden it.
They were killed by the Citroën, which had been driven off at high speed when a police officer tried to stop it. A spokeswoman for Avon & Somerset Constabulary said: "A police officer's attention was drawn to a Citroën Picasso travelling along Lower Hanham Road at speed.
"The officer indicated to the car to stop but it made off. The officer began to follow the car but it was lost to sight almost immediately.
"Very shortly afterwards the car stuck another vehicle and then collided with two cyclists on a tandem bicycle."
The couple died at the scene as paramedics fought to save them. A spokesman for Great Western Ambulance Service said: "Unfortunately both the patients were beyond help."
One neighbour said: "They were the best neighbours you could have. They would do anything for anyone." He added that Mr Simons was also a keen motocross rider who kept himself fit going to the gym every day.
Steve Camm, another family friend, said: "They were like two peas in a pod. They were never apart. They could never do enough for anybody." He added: "They were caring people. They always did random stuff. You could never stop them from having fun."
Inspector Frazer Davey, from Avon & Somerset Constabulary, appealed for any witnesses to come forward. He said: "Following investigations overnight the circumstances of this collision have become much clearer. However, I would appeal to anyone who witnessed this incident or saw this car in the area shortly before the collision to come forward and contact us."
The families of Mr and Mrs Simons said in a statement: "A very special couple have been taken from us and we have no words to describe our loss."
People continued to leave floral tributes at the scene. One read: "Ross and Clare you were an amazing couple and fantastic people. You will be missed so so much by all. RIP gone but never forgotten. In our hearts forever. All our love Darren, Shelley and Joshua xxx."
Another tribute read: "Ross and Clare. You will always be in our hearts. You will truly be missed and never forgotten. All our love, Paul and Sharon xxx."

LAFAYETTE — It could take months for crews to repair a sinkhole that opened above an old mine shaft on East Cleveland Street early Monday morning, nearly swallowing a SUV whole.
The sinkhole opened in the pre-dawn hours on East Cleveland between between Foote and Burlington avenues, above what used to be the main shaft of the Simpson coal mine — leaving a 15-foot-deep hole filled with water and debris in the middle of the street.
A car and its driver were perilously close to also ending up at the bottom of the sinkhole. The man told police he was driving through what he thought was a pothole at 5 a.m. Monday when he felt the asphalt suddenly "collapse around him," according to Debbie Wilmot, a spokeswoman with the city of Lafayette.
Police responded to the scene and stabilized the vehicle long enough for the driver to get out without any injury. The SUV was then towed from its precarious perch.
Don Kinney lives just yards from the hole and said he was awakened by a loud "thump."
"I came out to look at it and thought I was dreaming," Kinney said of the gaping hole in the street. "I've lived here 30 years and it's the first time I've seen this."
Wilmot said the sinkhole opened up over the main shaft of the old Simpson mine, which was shut down 88 years ago. She said the shaft had been filled in, but it appears recent rains had caused the fill to erode away.
"The combination of weather and conditions were just right for it to happen at this point," Wilmot said. "It was not any one overarching event that caused it."

Your Survival Strategy: Stick to the crispy tacos or burrito bowls, or saw a burrito in thirds.
Applebee's, IHOP, Olive Garden, Outback, Red Lobster, T.G.I. Friday's
These titans of the restaurant industry are among the last national chains that don't provide nutritional information on their dishes. Even after years of communication with their representatives, we still hear the same old excuses: it's too pricey, it's too time-consuming, it's impossible to do accurately because their food is so fresh. Our response is simple: If every other chain restaurant in the country can do it, then why can't they? Recent New York legislation requiring these restaurants to run calorie counts on their menus gave diners a glimpse of what these establishments are hiding: At Friday's, no fewer than nine sandwiches and ten appetizers topple the 1000-calorie barrier; at IHOP, the "healthiest" entree-size salad has a staggering 1050 calories; and at Outback, even a simple order of salmon will wipe out 75% of your day's caloric allotment.
Your Survival Strategy: Write letters, make phone calls, beg, scream, and plead for these restaurants to provide nutritional information on all of their products. Ask them why they refuse to tell us the truth!

After not having driven the car for 2 days, it starts fine but within 10 minutes, it starts to hesitate and cuts off.
After having not driven the car for a couple of days, the car starts fine, drives fine, bu then within 10 minutes it starts to hesitate and on occasions it will shut off. If I am on a hill it is even more difficult to get it to accelerate. It hesitates, jerks and cuts off, which is dangerous.
1 Answer
Jimm 7/17/2012Possible Causes of Engine Hesitation or Stumble:
Dirty fuel injectors (cleaning the injectors often fixes this).
Dirty / clogged air filter element (change the air filter)
Bad MAP (manifold absolute pressure) sensor
Bad TPS (throttle position) sensor
Bad or dirty MAF (mass airflow) sensor
Low fuel pressure (leaky fuel pressure regulator or weak fuel pump)
Vacuum leaks (intake manifold, vacuum hoses, throttle body, EGR valve)
Bad gasoline (fuel contaminated with water or too much alcohol)
Sometimes, what feels like a hesitation is actually ignition misfire rather than lean misfire. The causes of ignition misfire may include:
Dirty or worn spark plugs
Bad plug wires
Weak ignition coil

Article Summary
Feeling very confident after the perfect landing of the Curiosity rover on Mars on August 6th, NASA has announced its next mission to the Red Planet. In 2016, the US space agency will launch the unmanned InSight lander to Mars. Unlike Curiosity, InSight will be a static lander loaded with instruments designed to study the deep geology of Mars and answer such questions as whether the core of the planet is liquid or solid, and why Mars hasn't any shifting tectonic plates like Earth.

An Introduction to the Philosophy of Religion
What does belief in God amount to? Can we reasonably believe in God's existence without argument or evidence? Can God's existence be proved? Can we believe in miracles? Is there life after death? In this book, Brian Davies provides a critical examination of some fundamental questions posed by religious belief. Completely rewritten in order to cover the latest developments in the field, the new edition of this highly successful textbook will once again prove the ideal introduction for all students of the philosophy of religion. The book is highly accessible and covers all the key elements of a course in the philosophy of religion. It is designed to complement Brian Davies' Philosophy of Religion: A Guide and Anthology, although the book can also be used as a stand-alone introduction.

With the state Supreme Court's decision last month to strike down Act 13 provisions that set statewide zoning rules for natural gas development, experts are questioning whether the ruling will affect future litigation.
The justices found that Act 13 zoning provisions that allow natural gas drillers to produce in residential and agricultural areas collided with the state constitution's Environmental Rights Amendment, which, until now, the high court has never used to make decisions.
The amendment maintains Pennsylvanians have the right to clean air, pure water and the preservation of the environment's historic and aesthetic values. In a 2010 review of the document, Widener University's Environmental Law Department noted it is used mostly as a guide for legislators drafting new policy.
Three justices, Chief Justice Ronald D. Castille along with Debra McCloskey Todd and Seamus P. McCaffery, voted in favor of striking down the provisions, citing the amendment.
Justice Max Baer voted in favor of striking down the provisions, though he did not base his decision on the amendment. Rather, in his opinion Baer said that as an extension of the general assembly, municipal governments should set their own zoning regulations as they can best determine the needs of their communities.
Justices Thomas G. Saylor and J. Michael Eakin opposed the majority in two congruent opinions that passing the zoning regulations was within the general assembly's purview.
Opinion's strength questioned
During a telephone conference, Penn State University law professor Ross Pifer last week said the decision would have more clout if more justices were in accord.
"The language that was used (in Castille's published opinion) was very, very strong language," Pifer said. "If that language had been signed off on by four justices, if it had a majority opinion, I think it would have had a huge impact moving forward."
The ruling restores municipal zoning standards relating to natural-gas drilling in place before Act 13 was passed in 2012.
Experts say there has been no significant fallout after the Dec. 19 decision, although Adam Garber, field director for Philadelphia-based environmental advocacy group PennEnvironment, said he imagines municipal leaders are dusting off their old zoning ordinances.
"There's the immediate thing: I think townships and citizens are going to revisit the local ordinances to best protect their community," he said.
Further, fearing their efforts could now be struck down by the amendment, legislators are likely to consider it when drafting new laws, Garber said.
"In the long term, I think it has the potential to shift environmental policy in the state," Garber said.
Other provisions out
Act 13 also gave the state Department of Environmental Protection power to grant waivers for drillers to breach established setback zones. These zones contained waterways and buildings.
The justices knocked down those provisions saying the act offered no standards for DEP to administer the waivers.
The provision was inextricably linked to other provisions that defined how far well pads must be from buildings and waterways. In short, those setback zones have been dissolved.
Gov. Tom Corbett has asked drillers to honor the old setback rules and member drillers of the Marcellus Shale Coalition have agreed to abide by his request, said coalition spokesman Steve Forde.
The suit has a third aspect in which Dr. Mehernosh Khan, a Pittsburgh physician, sued to repeal Act 13's medical disclosure provisions that allowed companies to keep chemicals used in fracking production fluids secret as a matter of corporate propriety.
The state Commonwealth Court shot down his argument saying the doctor had no grounds for his suit; however, the state Supreme Court decided Act 13 possibly could force him to break the law and revived his case.
Special-law problem
The case has been remanded to the state Commonwealth Court on several issues, two of which threaten to dismantle the act in its entirety, Pifer said.
• The general assembly must treat all similar industries equally. If the courts decide all of Act 13 panders to the natural-gas industry, it could decertify the entire document.
• The courts also could decide the zoning and setback provisions in question are essential to the rest of the law, and therefore the whole law cannot stand without them.
When the case was first before the Commonwealth Court, judges sided with municipalities on the zoning issues but determined Act 13 was not a special law. The Supreme Court ruled their decision was founded on incomplete information, Pifer said.
It remains to be seen how the lower court will rule. Pifer said the matter will likely reappear before the state Supreme Court after an appeal from whoever loses before the Commonwealth Court.
Case law could be shaped forever because of this decision, Pifer said, though he explained the justices' varying opinions could tarnish its integrity.
"When you start to look at the next case, that's where the opinion and the actual reasonings and the words can be important," Pifer said. "And there's an issue here because it was a plurality opinion. It does impact how this decision will be viewed in the future."

Dirt Down Under
I have been doing a bit of riding lately but most of it has been fairly close to home and not really worthy of a ride report in it's own right. Each ride seems to highlight some great country though so I thought I would start a thread showing a very small portion of the place I like to call home.
I'll kick off with a few photo's from the weekend's ride to Wave Hill Station.
The most peaceful part of the whole trip, kicking back and taking in the moonlight.
The rest of the time was spent fending of KTM's. Truth is, the only reason I managed to get in front to start with is that I had the maps. If it wasn't for that I wouldn't have seen which way they went.
I tried to wear the O'Brien brothers out in an old sand quarry that has become an impromptu motocross track over the years but I think it only made them quicker.
Blue skies, a deserted stretch of beach and time to play.
Unfortunately I have busted my tailbone a couple of times doing stupid things on dirt bikes (you would think once would be enough) so I have a farily strict 'no mono' policy. It didn't seem to worry the others though.
Watching the guys was impressive. I have seen some pretty good wheelies in my time but this one was something else again.
For my money though the best thing about low tide is the ease with which you can do big skids. Pat is the master of such things, throwing the bike into one full lock slide after another.
Saturday night was spent around a custom made fire drum (not sure what to call it really) making the most of the excellent tucker put on by the station owners. The country hospitality at Wave Hill would easily be a match for the fanciest city restaurant in my opinion.
Sunday started with an early morning trip to the Clarence Gorge for a bit of exploring.
Even KTM's look good in this light
From the Gorge it was north into the rainforest before heading home after a solid weekend of riding.
Beautiful! Where exactly in Aus are you?
That sure looks like a lot of fun.:D
Great pics. I spent two weeks in Australia this April and I can't wait to go back. Wonderful country :freaky
Frontpage quality
:D you lucky prick ... those rain forest tracks look awesome :D
Very nice report!
Beautiful pics - I love Australia. I visited a couple of years ago but did not get as far north as the area of your report. I love 4 wheeling also - you guys sure have a lot of available terrain to explore.
John Davies
Great shots, great riding !! You guys look like you like to fly.
How many varieties of poisonous snakes do they have in Australia again ??
The double wheelies on the beach is awesome.
I am from Casino in Northern NSW. It is a country town about an hour so from the coast which seems to be far enough away to keep things pretty laid back. We are pretty lucky in the variety of country we have to explore around here. Unfortunately there is a pretty strong green movement as you get closer to the coast and they are set on closing most of it at the moment. Time will tell if they succeed but I hope they don't, doesn't seem right to lock off area's that have been open to the public for 150 years.
We have a few snakes, but I like to tell myself that they are sleeping about now. Climbing around the rocks at the Gorge takes a bit more thought in Summer when you are likely to encouunter a cranky Brown Snake or Taipan.
As for the photo's, I was pretty happy with the way they turned out. I think I might have to find some new riding mates some day though because these blokes make you feel awfully slow. :D

DoD calls on industry to help it save money
Tuesday - 6/29/2010, 4:01pm EDT
By Meg Beasley
Federal News Radio
The Defense Department is taking its efficiency initiative to its contractors.
About a month after DoD Deputy Secretary William Lynn announced the department's pledge to tighten its own belt, Undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics Ashton Carter says it will boost the productivity and efficiency of the companies that contract with DoD for goods and services.
"We're moving on to another phase which is reintroducing affordability to the programs we have concluded we do need," says Carter.
Of the department's annual $700 billion budget, about $400 billion is contracted out for services and weapons systems, says Carter.
In a press conference held at the Pentagon Monday, Carter says DoD will continue its efficiency initiative by doing more without more.
"The department hopes to increase warfighting capabilities by 2 to 3 percent without commensurate budget increases," says Carter.
The program rests on the idea that technology increases can help grow productivity and result in superior results without costing more. Carter says this concept is built into the larger economy, but is missing from the defense industry. Instead, defense project costs tend to mirror technological advances, a phenomenon that, according to Carter, isn't always necessary.
The government will offer incentives such as a "preferred supplier program" to contractors who improve their efficiency. Carter likened the idea to a frequent buyer card; the more ways a company boosts their productivity, the more contracts they are likely to win in the future.
Carter also hopes to bring small businesses into the defense industry. Small businesses will increase competition and expose larger firms to practices that could help them become more efficient because, Carter says, smaller firms tend to be leaner and have less overhead.
The program also will look at ways DoD can encourage efficiency. According to Carter, productivity often suffers when the military changes its mind halfway through the production process when goods are scrapped and plans are changed.
Carter also wants to change the way DoD budgets for projects from a "will-cost" to a "should-cost" approach. Will-cost estimates forecast what a project will cost, assuming the company maintains its standard operating procedure. Carter says DoD and contractors need to step back and evaluate what a project should cost, asking, "Does it really need to be that expensive?"
In the coming weeks, Carter says he will work with agency heads, independent forecasters and contractors to identify specific targets. He will then issue a concrete set of guidelines.
Carter says he wants to use the "rule of reason...in selecting the right tradecraft to reflect the reality of the situation at hand and provide the right incentives to the performers of the work to reduce costs, and to the government to contain its appetite and not change its mind."
The Professional Services Council, an industry association, expressed some concerns after meeting with Carter on the forthcoming memo.
"We share the goals that Undersecretary of Defense Carter has identified for the department and while many of the recommended guidelines-such as increasing competition and choosing the right kind of contract-are laudable, PSC is concerned about how the department proposes to implement them," Chvotkin says in a release.
"Services cover a broad span of activities and no one size fits all. Yet some of his initial recommendations may unnecessarily limit flexibility. For example, the department is right to focus on choosing the right contract vehicle, but why take a tool out of the toolbox by eliminating time and material contracts?"
PSC plans to present recommendations to DoD in a future meeting between department officials and member companies, as requested by Carter.

Alan Rosenbloom, President of the Alliance for Quality Nursing Home Care, said the proposed CMS rule is inconsistent with the Administration's central economic and health reform policy objectives. "The proposed rule would not only slow the creation of new jobs in one of the few sectors showing job growth, it also would make it much harder for SNFs to deliver the kind of long term reductions in costs so crucial to effective health care reform. SNFs are caring for a growing number of short-stay post-acute patients, at substantial savings to the Medicare program. The proposed rule could halt this movement in its tracks and limit reform efforts aimed at caring for post-acute patients into the lowest cost setting most appropriate to their needs."
Yarwood and Rosenbloom said that as the nature of America's nursing home patient population continues to evolve, all stakeholders should embrace efforts to facilitate the ability of nursing homes to care for higher-acuity, post-acute Medicare beneficiaries. SNFs, the long term care leaders point out, have invested heavily in recent years to increase capabilities to admit, treat and return to home a growing number of patients requiring intensive rehabilitative care, and care for patients with multiple chronic illnesses. In addition to cutting jobs and damaging already fragile local economies, implementing the rule would inhibit continued investments in cost effective care -- again, contrary to the Obama Administration's stated health policy objectives.

And what's so wrong with being an old fart?
You might want to look into wireless internet through a cellphone provider if it's important to your business. While most marina's nowdays are wifi enabled, doesn't mean you pick it up where they put you. With the cost of marinas, especially in FL, you'd probably save money using wireless internet and anchoring out.
Skipper Bob's Guide to Marina's, as well as for Anchorages. Should be able to pick up both at Inland Waterway in Oriental. I also use the Dozier's Waterway Guides.
If you're connected to the internet during your travels, you can get all the weather you need.
As for sailing outside, that can be iffy till you reach FL, unless you're planning on overnight passages.
Good luck with your plans!

As the Lakme Fashion week got underway, Anavila Sindhu Mishra presented her collection Mohenjo Daro. The line was inspired by various objects found at the excavation site of Mohenjo Daro and actress Konkona Sen Sharma took to the ramp as the showstopper.
The actress flaunted a simple yet striking yellow gold sari that was teamed with a gold metallic blouse. Interestingly, Konkana was the muse for the designer and was even present for the fashion week curtain raiser event. The muted make-up as well as the neckpiece and bangle made of beaten metal added to the entire look.

+1 212 477 5956
Neighborhood: East Village
Cuisine: Indian
The word Banjara, is the Indian word for gypsy. The banjaras are a group of nomads from the deserts of Rajasthan, located in the Northwest region of India. What distinguishes this place from all the other Indian joints that line Sixth Street, is the Rajasthani décor and North Western cuisine. You can always make a special request to the chef to brew up some Indian dish you have always heard of but doesn't feature on the menu. For dessert you might want to opt for the Rasmalai; cheese dumplings soaked in flavored milk. So go ahead and enjoy your dining experience here. A forewarning though, parking here can be a real pain.

To identify independent factors that may predict vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) resolution after endoscopic treatment using dextranomer/hyaluronic acid copolymer (Deflux®) in children free of anatomical anomalies.
Materials and methods
A retrospective study was conducted in our pediatric referral center from 1998 to 2011 on children with primary VUR who underwent endoscopic injection of Deflux® with or without concomitant autologous blood injection (called HABIT or HIT, respectively). Children with secondary VUR or incomplete records were excluded from the study. Potential factors were divided into three categories including preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative. Success was defined as no sign of VUR on postoperative voiding cystourethrogram. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were constructed to identify independent factors that may predict success. Odds ratio (OR) and 95 % confidence interval (95 % CI) for prediction of success were estimated for each factor.
From 485 children received Deflux® injection, a total of 372 with a mean age of 3.10 years (ranged from 6 months to 12 years) were included in the study and endoscopic management was successful in 322 (86.6 %) of them. Of the patients, 185 (49.7 %) underwent HIT and 187 (50.3 %) underwent HABIT technique. On univariate analysis, VUR grade from preoperative category (OR = 4.79, 95 % CI = 2.22–10.30, p = 0.000), operation technique (OR = 0.33, 95 % CI = 0.17–0.64, p = 0.001) and presence of mound on postoperative sonography (OR = 0.06, 95 % CI = 0.02–0.16, p = 0.000) were associated with success. On multivariate analysis, preoperative VUR grade (OR = 4.85, 95 % CI = 2.49–8.96, p = 0.000) and identification of mound on postoperative sonography (OR = 0.07, 95 % CI = 0.01–0.18, p = 0.000) remained as independent success predictors.
Based on this study, successful VUR correction after the endoscopic injection of Deflux® can be predicted with respect to preoperative VUR grade and presence of mound after operation.

Vranakis' arrival on 5 August will see him reunited with Rooney Carruthers, with whom he had worked at FCB during Carruthers' time as the executive creative director.
Before FCB, Vranakis had been the interactive creative director of WCRS, where he headed WCRS e-brands.
Vranakis said: "San Francisco was very much a great learning experience. I am now really looking forward to being part of one of London's most exciting agencies and delivering some truly integrated work."
Adrian Coleman, a partner at VCCP, added: "In an ever more fragmented media world this is part of our commitment to create more cohesive and effective campaigns for our clients."
While at FCB, Vranakis produced integrated campaigns for accounts including Compaq, Levi Strauss, Coors Light and CNN.
