The Scioto County Commissioners awarded several contracts Tuesday for work to be done on various roadways and bridges throughout the county. During the same meeting, the commissioners also took action that will lead to the replacement of two county bridges.
It was recently announced by Scioto County Engineer Craig Opperman that his office has received over one million dollars to pave a number of roads and replace two bridges in county. A portion of the funding for each project is coming from the Ohio Public Works Commission, through State Issue One which allows the state to issue bonds for infrastructure projects such as roads and bridges. The projects include the replacement of a bridge on Lick Run-Lyra Road and a bridge replacement on Riddlebarger Road.
The contract for the Lick Run-Lyra Bridge was awarded to Allard Construction.
"We are going replace that structure this year, with a completion date of November. It's (replacement bridge) a four-sided structure, 238 feet long. We are setting it up for future widening of that road," Opperman said. "When we replace this structure we're going to do it the right way, so we don't have to come up with the funds later, for the bigger road widening project."
He said the road widening project might be ten or 15 years down the road. The contract to replace the bridge is valued at $357,500.
Opperman said it may be another month before the contractor can get started due to fabricating the structure.
The 2014 Highway Improvement Project calls for the resurfacing of several roads.
"The highway improvement project has our resurfacing in it. The roads schedule to be paved include, Rosemount Road, Big Bear Creek, Slab Run, Dry Run and Henley Deemer Road," Opperman said.
Opperman said the highway improvements portion of the project was valued at $1.2 million with 65 percent of the funding coming from the state and 35 percent of the funding coming from Opperman's budget. The Shelly Company was awarded a contract for the work.
The Riddlebarger Road bridge replacement contract was awarded to Riser Construction of Friendship, Ohio for $178,705.
Opperman said the contractor hopes to get started around the first of September with an anticipated completion date of November.

With your adapter you will also receive a mini CD containing some DEMO and Freeware to test out on your computer, full versions of this software need to be purchased seperately and run anywhere from $10-$100 depending on your needs
Q) Why spend a little more to purchase ours rather than the ones selling for a few dollars less?
A) The reasons are many. Firstly many of the other cheaper versions of this device WILL NOT work on Ford vehicles because they skimp on many needed parts that read the Ford protocols. In many of the other cheaper units the manufaturers have cut so many corners they removed crucial parts that prevent the chips from frying out after a couple uses. It is not unlikely to use one of those units twice only to never have it work again. Many times they also use very cheap bluetooth chips which limits the range of the signal and also has been known to cause dropped signals during use, pausing readings and other odd occurances. Many of the cheap versions ship from China, even with expidited shipping this still means it can take up to many weeks to receive your goods unless you are lucky. While our adapters are still made in China we always keep them in stock and they will ship to you from the midwest of the USA! Even without expidited shipping you get your product within about 3-4 working days!

Made a mistake and bought an elm327
Posted by Trot Zimmerman on 27th Feb 2015
This thing is exactly what they say it is. Connects fast..... responds fast.... but most importantly it works on every vehicle i have tried it on. The elm327 wouldn't work on my 2006 gmc Sierra but would on my wife's 2006 G6... would work on my 1997 caravan but not my 1999 windstar work van. got this direct for same price as Amazon but with free shipping and I got it faster then expected...
You guys and this product have made me very happy.
Thanks a million.

Works with '97 4runner
Posted by Dave on 8th Jan 2015
I have tried numerous, cheap, ebay OBD2 readers. None worked on my '97 4runner. which uses the SAE J1850 VPW protocol. The BAFX scanner worked perfectly!
Excellent in every way possible
Posted by Joe on 3rd Jan 2015
Save your money and buy directly from BAFX. Stay away from those cheap Ebay OBD2 scanners. Trust me, I bought 2 from Ebay and they don't work! I bought the OBD2 scanner from this company because they said they would stand behind their name that it will work for my applications. They were right. I now have exactly what I am looking for my applications. 2 thumbs up BAFX for a great product!

Awesome product for a great price. The company is great with their customer service and for that reason alone I would buy from this company again. Kevin was extremely helpful. Product works wonderfully.

Charlie Sheen has dropped his extortion lawsuit against his New York City gal pal and porn star Capri Anderson.
RadarOnline.com has learned the former Two and a Half Men star nixed the lawsuit last Friday after numerous unsuccessful attempts to serve Anderson.
PHOTOS: Charlie Sheen's Porn Star Girlfriends
Anderson – real name Christina Walsh – was found naked in NYC's Plaza Hotel bathroom in October after police were called and she accused Sheen of assault and battery, claiming he threw a lamp and threatened to kill her while on a booze and cocaine fueled bender.
Sheen fired back with an extortion lawsuit, claiming the high-priced escort had swiped his $165,000 Patek Philippe watch and demanded $1 million in return for her silence about what really happened in that hotel room.

"This lawsuit is nothing more than a public relations stunt," Anderson's attorney, Keith Davidson, previously told RadarOnline.com.
Monday night the adult film star tweeted, "Today is a day I can finally move forward and I am most content :)"

When 41-year-old Dewey Winburne committed suicide in February 1999, so many people showed up to say good-bye at St. David's Episcopal Church in downtown Austin that more than a few were left standing outside the door. St. David's was where Dewey worshiped; he was a lay reader, a Sunday school teacher, and the ringleader of a tight-knit group that attended the Sunday night musical service. But on this day the regulars were easily outnumbered by the computer programmers, the software developers, and other creative types associated with the hundreds of start-up companies that have materialized in the past few years. Even George Kozmetsky, the octogenarian high-tech guru known to one and all as Dr. K, was there. He knew Dewey too. They all knew Dewey, because Dewey knew everyone.
More than once he'd been described as the godfather of Austin multimedia. It was an exaggeration, though he did predict the city's new media explosion by co-founding the South by Southwest Interactive Festival, the seven-year-old spin-off of the annual music industry schmoozefest. Schmoozing was what Dewey was about: He was Mr. Network, the one to call to make the hookup no matter what you needed. A regular around the offices of the Austin Chronicle, where he mixed easily with grass-roots activists and scenesters, he was one of the few bridges between the old counterculture and the new corporate culture, as fluent in hippie and street jive as he was in Adobe Premier. That made his passing seem symbolically significant, the final chapter in Austin's decade-long transition from college town to boom town, a period in which money and technology changed everything and everybody—including Dewey Winburne.
Change is a hot topic these days all across Texas, but nowhere more than Austin, where a gold-rush mentality has set in. In glass office towers and squat coffeehouses, the talk is of stock options and public offerings and newly minted millions. Each week reporters from Los Angeles and New York come to town, deplaning at the shiny new airport, with its pit barbecue and its endless loop of piped-in local music, and trot out the success stories of the modern era. Twentysomethings out-earning their parents before the ink on their diplomas is dry. Homeowners able to sell and retire early, thanks to a skyrocketing housing market. Downtown development that can't keep pace with the demand for space. More jobs than there are qualified people to fill them. In all the breathless accounts, however, there's little mention of the downside to the upside: the eighty-hour weeks that pit work against family, the growing gap between haves and have-nots, traffic more appropriate to Dallas or Houston, the transformation of a distinct landscape into one resembling everyplace else, the unrelenting pressure of the fast-track lifestyle. It was that pressure, finally, that got to Dewey, who saw technology as a means rather than an end, a tool of education, not commerce. He could never quite reconcile his desire to do good with everyone else's to do well.
Whatever the reality, the crowd at St. David's wasn't prepared to accept it. As Dewey's wife, Dorothy, read lyrics from a song by Bruce Cockburn, one of his favorite musicians, and the Reverend Stephen Kinney, one of his oldest friends, delivered the eulogy, the mourners kept returning to the question of why they were there. Why had the good-news evangelist who preached that the tech revolution would break the chains of poverty and ignorance checked out before his work was done? Why would someone who gave others a new lease on life take his own?
Dewey Winburne stuck out like a sore thumb. It wasn't just that he marched to a different drummer, though he did with great relish. He was hard to miss, even in a crowd. What his large physical presence—he was a strapping six-footer—didn't make plain, his nonstop chatter did. He was always pulling surprises out of his leather shoulder bag, not just the magic tricks he liked to perform but also samples of his latest creative output, and he was only too happy to give you one: a video called Drugs, Alcohol or Freedom, which was a finalist at the 1993 Charleston International Film Festival; or the CD-ROMs Addiction and Its Processes and Life Moves: The Process of Recovery, which won Best of Show and a Gold Medal for Excellence, respectively, at NewMedia magazine's Invision 1994 Multimedia Awards Event.
He knew the subject matter well. A native of Austin, Dewey had moved back from Houston with his new bride, Dorothy Gilbertson, to complete his bachelor's degree at the University of Texas, and he liked the friendly vibe and low cost of living enough to stay after he got out of school, renting a succession of bungalows before buying one north of campus. Like many others of that place and time, he flirted with alcohol and drugs to the point of abuse, but he confronted his demons and got on the road to recovery, a change of life he loved talking about to others in his gregarious, expansive way.
His natural tendency to proselytize led him to teach—specifically, at the American Institute for Learning ( AIL), an alternative school for kids who couldn't or wouldn't thrive in the public school system. It was there, in AIL's converted warehouse downtown, that Dewey asserted his role as Pied Piper, reaching kids by relating to them on their own level. "It was therapy for him," says multimedia producer Floyd Wray, a close friend. "He was really touched by kids who'd dropped out and gotten into drugs. He started recording their stories on camera."
"He got us to believe in ourselves," says Patrick Curry, who took multimedia classes from Dewey at age fourteen, in the summer of 1994. "The whole spirit there was 'teach by doing.' They acknowledged that the traditional process of education had failed. He'd say, 'This system sucks, but I've figured out how to play it.'" He did so by letting the kids play—with audio, video, and AIL

NHL Game Night: 10-28-14 Coyotes at LightningSubmitted by pete on October 28, 2014 - 21:39
Kucherov line steals the show in homecoming game.
Ben Bishop allowed 3 goals on 25 shots for the victory. He just wallowed in the cool glorious waters of goal supportage all night long tonight.
First Period
7:46 TB Kucherov (2), (Gudas, Johnson)
12:18 TB Filppula (2), (Killorn, Stamkos)
Second Period
3:20 TB Kucherov (3), (Johnson, Palat)
14:07 ARI Doan (1), (Stone, Vermette)
17:32 TB Boyle (2), (unassisted)
18:52 ARI Erat (3), (Hanzal, Gagner)
Third Period
8:23 TB Kucherov (4), (Johnson, Brewer)
9:26 TB Boyle (3), (Brown, Stralman)
12:43 ARI Crombeen (1), (Vitale, Ekman-Larsson)
18:15 TB Carle (1), (Johnson, Sustr)(PP)
Nikita Kucherov, Tyler Johnson, and Brian Boyle were the game's three stars.
I've said it before, but that Palat/Johnson/Kucherov line has been a revelation. That line, I suspect, is your second line from now until the end of the season. The chemistry and speed of Johnson and Palat have unlocked the time and space necessary to let Kucherov apply his finishing skills, and those three are lethal together. Great game by Boyle and old man Morrow tonight, too, as well as Radko Gudas, who should've had a goal that was waved off on a way too quick whistle on a rebound chance Gudas snuck through Mike Smith's gaping five-hole.
As I recall, last season, the Coyotes really kicked the Lightning in the teeth in Arizona and their announcers and fans were far too giddy about the rude treatment the Lightning were given. I may be over-romanticizing this, but given the way the Lightning woodshedded Montreal earlier this season and the way Gudas decapitated Squirt Bottle Bandit Upshall, one might conclude this team is becoming very good at making others pay up on old debts. Very good. Intmidatingly good.
The victory gives the Lightning 13 points in the first 10 game segment of the season, clearing the 12 point minimum and giving them an insurance point to put in the bank. For those who didn't read Bolt Prospects last season, the 12/10 formula is pretty simple. 96 points should deliver you a playoff spot comfortably, based on past historical performance. Earning 12 points every 10 games will get you to 96 points with 2 games left to play around with. So, for every 10 game segment of the year, if your team can get at least 12 points, you're golden. The Lightning didn't get 12 points in every 10 game segment last season, but they accrued enough bonus points along the way that at no time last year did they fall behind schedule to get 96 points, eventually topping triple digits on their way to the playoffs. We're wheeling the formula out again this season because it's a fairly straightforward way of judging how the season is progressing. 12/10 is the magic ratio.
Now we ask the team to clean the slate and say, 12/10: do it again.
Cedric Paquette had his first NHL fight, 3 shots, 2 hits, and 1 blocked shot in 9:53. A very Dump Truck-ulent stat line, to be sure.
Jonathan Drouin had 1 shot, 1 hit, and 1 blocked shot in 11:50. After his play in the previous game, he got busted down to the 4th line tonight, where he was invisible for 2 periods before coming alive with Namestnikov and Paquette in garbage time in the final frame. With Killorn coming back and looking decent in the First Period with Stamkos, it looked like it might be a longer term demotion for Drouin in the offing, but given how ineffective the Stamkos line was the final 40 minutes of the game I suspect Drouin will get a chance to get back up there sooner rather than later. As it was, I thought some of his Third Period work was quite entertaining.
Vladislav Namestnikov had 3 shots and 1 blocked shot in 14:08. I thought he was really good tonight, showing great speed and getting in on some dangerous chances. He just happened to be the odd man out for a scoring line with everybody else clicking, and Arizona was only getting offense off faceoffs where Namesy was 0-for-3 tonight, so that may have factored in the decision, as well. Still, I liked what I saw and he should've had a helper on Gudas' disallowed goal.

NHL Game Night: 10-25-14 Lightning at WildSubmitted by pete on October 25, 2014 - 22:03
Bad goaltending and bad habits come home to roost.
Evgeni Nabokov allowed 4 goals on 8 shots for the loss before giving way to Ben Bishop, who allowed 3 on 14 shots the rest of the way. Nabby allowed 2 short-side softies and and small, weak effort on a player swinging in wide from the wing before being lifted. Terrible.
First Period
7:37 MIN Scandella (1), (Pominville, Parise)
8:16 MIN Koivu (1), (Vanek)
11:04 TB Stralman (1), (Brewer, Johnson)
12:41 MIN Haula (1), (Niederreiter)
17:15 MIN Zucker (3), (Cooke, Carter)
Second Period
2:11 MIN Parise (3), (Pominville, Suter)
11:12 MIN Spurgeon (2), (Vanek, Coyle)
16:50 TB Kucherov (1), (Stralman)
Third Period
13:44 MIN Zucker (4), (Scandella)(SH)
The deck was pretty well stacked against the Lightning to start with playing at the end of a grueling road trip on a back-to-back against a quality opponent with a makeshift lineup due to multiple injuries. When Nabby gave up what I would consider to be 2.5 soft goals, those were the straws that broke the camel's back. Your veteran backup's got to be better than that. He doesn't have to win the game for you, but he's got to allow you to keep contact and give your team a chance to manufacture a point or two. Minnesota didn't exactly light the world on fire with a 22 shot effort, and once Nabby was lifted, 2 of their goals came off plays where the Lightning were taking chances because the score was so lopsided. In other words, it would've been a very different game if Nabby had made the stops in the First Period he was supposed to.
The Lightning return home for the final game of this first 10 game segment of the season needing 1 more point to hit the 12 you want them to get from each segment.
Cedric Paquette was -1 with 1 blocked shot and he was 75% on draws in 13:57.
Jonathan Drouin was -2 in 19:10. Ineffective, and he might've worn the second largest set of goat horns in the game on a weak turnover behind the Lightning net that killed the team's momentum after closing the game to 2-1 and Gudas nearly tying it with a point shot off the post. Drouin's turnover ends up behind Nabby and it's 3-1 Wild. The rest was history.
Jonathan Marchessault was -1 with 1 shot in 12:33.
Vladislav Namestnikov was -2 with 1 shot and 3 hits in 12:27. He was also 25% on draws and took an elbow to the mush that cost him a few shifts. Rough night, although I can't fault him for the two minuses he was on the ice for.

NHL Game Night: 10-24-14 Lightning at JetsSubmitted by pete on October 24, 2014 - 22:09
Lightning best the Jest.
Ben Bishop allowed 2 goals on 42 shots for the victory. How he didn't get a star in this game, I don't know.
First Period
4:41 TB Stamkos (6), (Drouin, Filppula)
Second Period
4:45 TB Drouin (1), (Kucherov, Johnson)
5:33 WPG Little (4), (Enstrom, Ladd)(PP)
12:52 TB Namestnikov (2), (Palat, Kucherov)(PP)
18:02 TB Palat (3), (Johnson, Kucherov)
Third Period
10:19 WPG Wheeler (3), (Perreault, Enstrom)
Jonathan Drouin and Ondrej Palat were the game's first and second stars. Complete homer move by the Winnipeg media to give a Jet a star tonight. That team's a dumpster fire, and Kucherov and Bishop would've been far more meritorious choices.
One silver lining of the injuries to Killorn and Callahan is that it's forced Cooper to tinker with some combinations that were outside his original thinking, and I believe he's found two really good combos with Filppula/Stamkos/Drouin and Palat/Johnson/Kucherov. The latter line is particularly fun to watch. The former line? I suspect you could put a sack of potatoes with the other two guys and they'd rack up assists.
Overall, that game was inartful and were I a coach I'd load the game film up in a cannon and shoot it to the moon. The Lightning should hardly be proud of their performance, particularly defensively in allowing 42 shots on goal. Tonight, though, I'll grant them a bit of a pass considering they were playing in a game that was officiated at a minor league level and against an opponent that might as well be a minor league team. Throw the newest injuries (J.T. Brown and Brett Connolly) on top of that, and I'll issue a full pardon for the night's play.
It's amazing to me that Winnipeg has not improved an iota since moving from Atlanta. None. They're awful. The Lightning played down to their level in indulging the Jets in a structure-free pond hockey exhibition and still absolutely smashed them because their skill level is just that much higher. I hate to see that too much, because I think it reinforces bad habits when teams get a payoff despite bad play. But, still, that's sink mangy animal up there in Winnipeg that needed to be put down tonight. J-E-S-T, jest, jest, jest. They're a joke.
Cedric Paquette had 3 shots and 2 hits in 14:14 in his first game back from recall, sporting #13 this time around. My compliments to his tailor.
Drouin had his first NHL goal, which was put on a tee for him by Nikita Kucherov, and a far more impressive helper on Stamkos' goal to go with a +1 rating, 2 shots, and 2 blocked shots. His hands are irrationally quick, both with and without the puck. 99% of players don't get that puck over to Stamkos in tight on that 2-on-1, and he pick-pocketed Winnipeg players repeatedly throughout the course of the game in both the offensive and defensive thirds.
Vladislav Namestinikov had a goal and 1 shot and 1 blocked shot in 10:48. He got a whisp of a deflection on a Palat shot on the PP, and that was all it took to get his name on the sheet for his 2nd of the season. He remains nicely active offensively, although clearly the coaching staff has to be careful not to put him in perilous situations defensively and in the faceoff circles.

NHL Game Night: 10-21-14 Lightning at FlamesSubmitted by pete on October 21, 2014 - 23:48
Lightning scratch out 2 critical points at altitude.
Evgeny Nabokov allowed 1 goal on 22 shots for the OT win in a classic duel with Bolt Prospects Alumni Karri Ramo.
First Period

Third Period
1:12 CGY Wideman (3), (Gaudreau, Russell)(PP)
17:44 TB Filppula (1), (Garrison, Drouin)
3:00 TB Palat (2), (Stralman, Johnson)
Nabokov and Ondrej Palat were the game's first and third stars.
As disappointing as the effort was against Edmonton, you have to give a ton of credit to the guys tonight for fighting back late on the back end of a back-to-back at altitude to get the 2 points. That's impressive, and that showed heart from a team that had theirs questioned after the previous night's debacle.
If you look at our time-honored 12/10 formula (12 points in every 10 game segment), there is a tremendous difference between sitting at 9 points through 7 games and sitting at 7, because the Lightning can go .500 the rest of the way in the segment and hit their minimum target rather than having to rake in 5 of the last 6 possible points. Tonight was huge when you consider that, and how important it is to stay on schedule early in the year.
Jonathan Drouin had his first NHL point, a helper, and was +1 with 1 shot in 19:57. It took a whopping two games for him to make his way onto a scoring line. What took him so long?
Vladislav Namestnikov was 40% on draws and had 1 shot in 11:49 of ice time.

NHL Game Night: 10-21-14 Lightning at OilersSubmitted by pete on October 20, 2014 - 23:17
Didn't see much want-to in the team tonight.
Ben Bishop allowed 3 goals on 23 shots for the loss. It's not a good stat line, but it doesn't reveal how many point blank opportunities Ben turned away just to keep the Lightning in striking distance in this game. He deserved better than what he got from the team in front of him tonight.

Second Period
1:21 TB Boyle (1), (Morrow, Garrison)

14:57 EDM Hall (4), (unassisted)(PS)
Third Period
13:55 TB Connolly (2), (Johnson)
16:35 EDM Nugent-Hopkins (1), (Eberle)
Brett Connolly was the game's third star. He had a Third Period tying goal and a goal waved off on a dubious crease violation call in the First Period. He took his usual lazy minor penalty early in the game, and once he got it out of the way got stronger as the game went on. He's still not where I'd want him to be, but that was a better effort tonight, to be sure.
I wish I could say the same for the rest of the Lightning. That was bad. Passionless. Flavorless. Antiseptic. Bad. They looked like they were going through the motions, and only getting 24 shots on goal against that team and that goaltender is a bad joke. It's like the Lightning were content just to amble their way through the game and have it not be a track meet rather than trying to impose some will and some tempo on the Oilers. That's a bad look, compounded further by Ryan Callahan leaving the game with an injury in the Second Period, right before you head to Calgary at elevation. People will make an excuse for the loss based on the waved off goal in the First Period. Let me answer that in a word: bollocks. They didn't deserve anything but a loss tonight. You'd have a hard time winning anything other than a dog show with effort like that.
Jonathan Drouin was -1 with 1 shot and 1 blocked shot in 16:10 in his first NHL game. His line doesn't reflect how crafty he looked as a playmaker. He needs to get a regular set of linemates and a regular shift on the PP, and the points will almost certainly follow.
Vladislav Namestnikov had 1 shot and 1 hit and was 50% on draws in 11:33. He took an unlucky high sticking call in the Third Period and also was stoned by Scrivens on a big chance all alone in the slot earlier in the period. Wish he could've done more with that one.

The Implementation Guide is a brief outline of the steps to implement the Children's Justice Initiative (CJI) in a county. Click here to access the Implementation Guide.
Each of Minnesota's 87 counties has a CJI Team. Implementation of CJI Teams began in 2001 with 12 pilot counties from a mixture of urban, suburban and rural counties. Sixteen additional counties implemented CJI Teams in 2002, and the remaining 60 counties implemented CJI Teams in 2004. The same process was used as each group of counties was added. Gradually adding the counties was critical to the process as it allowed the enthusiasm from the first groups of counties to spread to each subsequent group of counties as they began to share success stories. The first counties also assisted in mentoring the subsequent groups of counties.

Hard-luck Helm hurt again, won't travel with Wings
Dec 5, 2013, 1:20 PM EDT
Stop us if you've heard this one before, but Darren Helm is hurt.
The oft-injured Red Wings forward won't travel with the club for Friday's game in New Jersey because of a shoulder injury, according to MLive.com.
Helm is scheduled to undergo a MRI today to figure out the extent of damage.
The 26-year-old speedster has had absolutely no luck with his health this year. He missed 47 regular season and all 14 playoff games during the lockout-shortened campaign with a back injury, then another 14 this year with the same issue.
What makes this latest setback so frustrating for Detroit is that Helm provided a huge spark upon his return. He scored seven goals and 10 points in 15 games, and was on pace to break his career high of 12 goals, set in the 2010-11 campaign.
The injury also compounds Detroit's troublesome injury situation. Henrik Zetterberg is out for at least two weeks with a back ailment, Pavel Datsyuk is day-to-day (head) and Danny DeKeyser is on LTIR with a separated shoulder.
- jmcurran28 - Dec 5, 2013 at 1:28 PM
Tough break, can't praise Helmer enough for what he brings to the Wings, hopefully it's nothing too major. We all seem to go through these rough injury patches around this time of year. Just have to stay positive, and look for contributions from some of the other guys.
Too bad Mantha isn't "ready" to be called up.
- lilgurgi - Dec 5, 2013 at 1:36 PM
I feel for the Wings, but everyone has injury bugs sooner or later in the NHL. Take for instance last year the Flyers used something like 15 different defenseman due to injuries, etc. Only 2 of the starting 6 on opening night were able to play by the end of the season. Good luck wishes to the Wings for getting some of these guys back healthy. Flyers fan through and through, but I do enjoy watching the rest of the talent battle it out in the NHL.
- operwapitsai - Dec 5, 2013 at 1:46 PM
why do some guys get the label injury prone while others get away with just having bad luck?
- lilgurgi - Dec 5, 2013 at 2:15 PM
It's all in the eye of the beholder. Saying someone is Injury Prone compares to Bad Luck is like when someone calls a agitator/fighter "scared to fight" compared to "he picks his spots of when to fight". There really is no formula.
- polegojim - Dec 5, 2013 at 2:38 PM
Injury prone = regularly out due to 'routine play' injuries or mysterious injuries.
See Mike's description of Helm's history above. Classic Injury Prone.
I like Helm… but 'oft-injured' and 'injury prone' he is, from the back that kept him out a year… to this shoulder… at which point no one even knows when it happened. It's not like you can tie it to an individual bad deal like Dats head injury. Dats deal was just a bad play on him.
Helm gets hurt just by playing the game without major incident. Unfortunately, that IS injury prone.
- LampyB - Dec 5, 2013 at 1:56 PM
Helm is 100% injury prone. Hes worse than Havlat and Horton
- mshantz22 - Dec 5, 2013 at 2:47 PM
Buuuuut he's been playing better than both of them lately (when Horton was playing) and is payed less than half as much as those two guys. Philly threw a lot of hard hits last night. Not surprised that somebody got injured.
- peterjohnjoseph - Dec 5, 2013 at 3:23 PM
Did you throw your tv out after Detroit was eliminated last year in the playoffs? Horton was top 5 in playoff scoring the last time he was on the ice. Its not Horton's fault the Blue Jackets overpaid. Thats the market.
- tigers182 - Dec 5, 2013 at 2:35 PM
The Wings are holding tryouts to fill out the roster. I can't believe they're in fourth in the East with all their injuries.
- polegojim - Dec 5, 2013 at 5:26 PM
Yes, it is amazing… and is exactly why they're NOT holding tryouts to fill the roster… sheesh… haven't you been paying attention???
They've done a very good job with some depth… and it's being tested right now.

Hi guys ! I really need your help ! I want to provide some other colors to the template than the default one. So i need a CSS style toggle switcher. I mean something like this : http://themeforest.net/item/force-coming-soon-template/full_screen_preview/2738271 or like this : http://themeforest.net/item/soon/full_screen_preview/2760904 or like this: http://themeforest.net/item/mikmag-responsive-buddypress-and-woocommerce/full_screen_preview/2728331 . So my main question is : Is there a tutorial or sample on how to do such a thing ? Thank you very much !
I think there are some examples on how to make something like that but I think you pretty much can build it yourself. There is no much to it. Changing some css values with jquery isn't that hard for a template maker
I saw many point to this: http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/javascript-ajax/jquery-style-switcher/
Yes it is easy, but i just wanted to have a starting ideea. Thank you very much for your reply !

ST. LOUIS - JANUARY 3: Alex Smith #11 of the San Francisco 49ers listens on the sidelines during the game against the St. Louis Rams at the Edward Jones Dome on January 3, 2010 in St. Louis, Missouri. The 49ers beat the Rams 28-6. (Photo by Dilip Vishwanat/Getty Images)
A quarterback switch is common place when a team is struggling but the San Francisco 49ers appeared to be one of the best teams in the NFL. When Alex Smith was concussed in a game against the St. Louis Rams in Week 10 he found out how quickly one can be replaced in the NFL. "I mean, it sucks. I don't know what else to say," Smith said Thursday, per Matt Maiocco of Comcast SportsNet Bay Area. Smith was fifth in quarterback rating and led the NFL in completion percentage at the time of the injury. Since the team turned to Colin Kaepernick at the quarterback position they have won two consecutive games. "It stings the most just because I really felt there was something special going on here, and you sacrifice and invest so much time," Smith added, via The Associated Press. "… I have no idea what's going to happen from here. All I can do now is just prepare and get ready." The 49ers attempted to land Peyton Manning this off-season as an upgrade over Smith. Once Manning signed with the D...

PADRES: Moyer triumphs in battle of aged
Phillies' veteran gets the best of Maddux —— barely
SAN DIEGO -- They were both drafted in 1984, both debuted with the 1986 Chicago Cubs and neither boasts a fastball above 87 mph. But on Friday night, Greg Maddux and Jamie Moyer had opposing hitters befuddled.
Three years Maddux's elder, the 45-year-old Moyer and three Philadelphia Phillies relievers were just a little bit better as they downed the Padres 1-0 in front of 37,558 at Petco Park.
The combined shutout, which was closed out by a dominant inning by Brad Lidge, was the ninth time the Padres have been blanked this season. And if you asked Padres hitters, to a man they would tell you they're not quite sure how Moyer limited them to three hits over seven innings. Ditto for the Phillies and Maddux.
"Frustrating," said Padres rookie Chase Headley. "He just picks at the outer part of the plate and throws a lot of changeups and breaking pitches. … Sometimes guys like that, they use your aggressiveness against you. He throws things up there that look like they're going to be good pitches to hit, and by the time they reach you it's just off the plate or down at the knees or painted off the outside corner. … That's why the guy's been around as long as he has and been successful."
The victory was the 241st of Moyer's career and his fourth over the past month-and-a-half in eight starts. But to earn it, Moyer (11-7) had to be nearly perfect to outpitch Maddux (6-9). Over the course of his 98 pitches, Moyer only got into serious trouble in the sixth inning.
Following a two-out walk to leadoff man Scott Hairston, who reached base three times, and a Brian Giles single, Moyer got a grounder to the right side off the bat of Kevin Kouzmanoff. Phillies first baseman Ryan Howard ranged far to his right and looked like he'd try to get the force at second, but didn't have a play there and instead made a backhanded flip to Moyer, who made a leaping grab with one hand over his head before stepping on the bag.
Moyer also had the help of several outstanding defensive plays deep in the hole by shortstop Jimmy Rollins, and a pair of great picks by Howard.
That was enough to squeeze him past Maddux, who held the fourth-ranked Phillies' offense at bay for 85 pitches. The veteran retired the side in four different innings and had Philadelphia hitters going crazy as he moved his fastball in and out of the zone.
Padres catcher Nick Hundley said a first-inning called third strike on Rollins left the reigning National League Most Valuable Player muttering to himself in awe.
"That was a pitching clinic," Padres manager Bud Black said. "Two guys who really know their game. Two guys who are tremendous students of the game."
Maddux made one miscue with one out in the seventh inning, however, and it cost him the game. The right-hander threw a fastball to Pat Burrell right where he wanted, but the slugger planted it into the left-field bleachers for a 1-0 lead.

On Monday, examiners at the Clinton Driver's License Office were honored by the nonprofit organization Donate Life North Carolina for achieving the most improved organ and eye donor designation rate for its district in 2013. The office had almost a 1 percent increase in the number of customers who said "Yes" to donation, bringing its sign-up rate to 37.2 percent. The average donor sign-up rate in North Carolina for 2013 was 51.9 percent.
The annual Donate Life NC's awards program recognizes driver license offices in the 14 districts for having the highest or the most improved donor designation rates. This is the fourth year the Carrboro office has received this award. The group wants to demonstrate its appreciation for the examiners, whose job has a direct impact on the more than 121,000 people across the country waiting for a much needed organ. Here in North Carolina, more than 3,300 people await their lifesaving transplant.
Why is this such an important issue? The transplant waiting list continues to grow while the number of donors has not increased to meet the need. Every 10 minutes, another name is added to the national transplant waiting list, and sadly, an average of 18 people die each day waiting for a lifesaving transplant. However, one person can save up to eight lives through organ donation and restore sight in two individuals through cornea donation.
Donate Life NC works to inspire North Carolinians to register as organ, tissue and eye donors. Residents have the opportunity to join the donor registry at the Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) when receiving or renewing a driver's license or ID card. Those individuals who say "yes" to donation receive a small red heart on their license or ID card. People can also register online at DonateLifeNC.org/register at any time. Last year, almost 300 North Carolinians gave the gift of life through organ donation.
"Our partnership with the DMV is our top priority," said Sharon Hirsch, executive director of Donate Life NC. "While asking customers if they would like to register as a donor is just one of several questions in each transaction, examiners never know what the one 'Yes!' might mean for someone else. In fact, most people on the waiting list never imagined they would need a lifesaving transplant and hope that someone will step up and be their hero."
For more information on registering as a donor, visit DonateLifeNC.org/register.

On today's Reel Rebel video production tip, Stephen Schweickart discusses the importance of good lighting for video and gives a brief overview of one tried and true lighting technique called "three point lighting". Using a good lighting set-up will help you make your online videos graduate from looking as if they were homemade and amateur, to looking more clean and professional. Good lighting can provide a more interesting and dynamic image where the subject is seen with more dimension and where you have more control over shadows.
The Basics of Three Point Lighting & Definition
If you want a well lit video (and you should), it's essential to use a good lighting set-up. Three point lighting is one of the oldest lighting techniques used in shooting video and essentially it consists three lights (wouldn't you know it) - a key light, fill light and back-light.
The Key Light
The primary light is the key light. It's there to bring light directly to your subject so that whatever you are filming, the subject is well illuminated in the shot. Key lights should not be placed directly in front of the talent or subject, but instead slightly off to the side. While just having this light may look like enough light, if you want a well lit piece, you'll want to include the other two lights to provide the subject in shot with more dimension.
The Fill Light
The fill light fills the dark side of your subject. The fill light allows you to control the overall feel of your shot depending on how much you dim or lighten the fill light. A dim fill light will give you more of a harsh, film-noir type of shadow, while a having the light brighter will help give your subject a more even look.
You should always have a fill light in place even if you want a shadowy look to your talent so that you are able to see a little detail on the dark side.
The Back Light (also called Rim Light)
The third light is the back light. A back light will put another element to the image of your talent and will push him or her off from the background, again adding another dimension. For this all you need to do is place a light behind your subject pointed at the back of their neck and high enough to be out of frame. Watch that you don't have the light too bright or the effect you get may not be the look you were going for.
That's it for a very basic overview of the standard three point lighting technique. If you have a fourth light, you can use that to help light the background of the scene when required.
Question: What tips and techniques can you recommend to help creators produce more professional looking video?

First, I looked at a replace bellows video on U-Tube that saved a lot of time in knowing how to proceed. You really need nutdrivers as sockets won't fit on the screws. Fitting the bellows on the large drum is not as simple as it appeared in the movie. It took several attempts to get it in place, but it was simple to place the clamp after it was there. Other than that, just follow the steps in the movie for your model

Campaign For State House Seat In Miami Becomes Ugly Personal Fight
One of the ugliest primary races in the state is going on here in South Florida.
Gus Barreiro and Alex De la Portilla, both former Republican state lawmakers, are battling it out for a Florida House seat in Miami.
Their race has become a messy fight with a series of slurs against each man's moral character.
They also have quite a bit in common.
Both men come from political families, as well as a past as state lawmakers in the Florida Legislature.
However, both also happen to have controversial histories, which have become the centerpiece for this Republican primary.
Jose Javier Rodriguez, who is a Democrat running for the same state House seat, is likely to be the challenger to whomever wins in this contentious Republican primary.
He said his campaign has been preparing for the upcoming general election.
"I think the way this affects my race is that is really just unfortunate for the voters," Rodriguez said. "Really these elections should be about issues."
A political committee backing Barreiro sent out mailers about De la Portilla's messy divorce a few years ago.
De la Portilla supporters have been phoning residents about Barreiro being fired in 2009 from the Department of Juvenile Justice.
Barreiro was fired in 2009 for accessing pornographic websites on his work computer.
Rodriguez said voters are short-changed when a campaign becomes increasingly negative.
"It really just makes it an unfortunate environment because so much of the discussion is about this slugfest-- this personality contest in the Republican primary, when it should be about the issues," he said.

New London - Klewin Development is proposing to build a grocery store and 40 apartments on a 3-acre parcel of city-owned land at the intersection of Bank and Howard streets.
Klewin Development, with offices in Groton, has been talking with the city about plans for an 18,000-square-foot grocery store, with market-rate and affordable housing units above.
Kyle Klewin, a member of Klewin Development, was granted prime developer status last February for the site. He is asking for an extension on the developer status and will make a presentation to the City Council Monday night.
The Economic Development Committee will meet at 5:30 p.m., followed by the City Council at 7 p.m.
Klewin could not be reached for comment Friday, but in correspondence with the city he said the state Department of Economic and Community Development is supportive of the project. The company is preparing an application for funds from the Competitive Housing Assistance for Multifamily Properties, which awards grants and low-interest loans to projects that address affordable housing needs. The housing would be 80 percent market rate and 20 percent affordable.
The company is partnering with Sheldon Oak Central and the Women's Development Corp. for the project. The partners have applied for a $250,000 pre-development loan from the DECD. The money would be used to fund design engineering, environmental review, cost estimates, financial analysis, legal and financing fees.
"They've gotten to a point where they can roll out their plans to the public and the council and get support for them to continue," said Tammy Daugherty, the city's director of development and planning.
Preliminary sketches show a three-story rectangular building with the entrance to the grocery abutting the sidewalk at the intersection of Bank and Howard, and the entrance to the residential portion on the opposite corner. The two upper floors have one- and two-bedroom apartments, but the square footage is not shown. The design shows a parking lot for about 70 vehicles, with an additional 20 spaces on Bank Street.
Construction would be completed in January 2015.
"The project will create jobs, housing and needed services for the residents of New London, while removing a vacant lot in a valuable area in the city," Klewin wrote in an Oct. 16 letter to Ned Hammond, the city's economic development coordinator. " ... we feel a project such as ours will spark further development in the city by creating positive momentum in the City of New London."
The site, which is known as Parcel J, has been vacant since the New London Redevelopment Agency bought the land about 40 years ago as part of a citywide Urban Renewal Plan.
In February, when Klewin was named the preferred developer, Kyle Klewin called the lot the "probably the best site in New London."
Klewin did not say which grocery store could be located at the site, but said he is with a prospective tenant with two similar locations in New London County.

MONDAY, Nov. 15 (HealthDay News) -- A new blood thinner might be a viable alternative to warfarin (Coumadin), the standard for decades to treat patients with the dangerous heart rhythm disorder known as atrial fibrillation.
In research presented Monday at the American Heart Association's annual meeting in Chicago, researchers reported that rivaroxaban (Xarelto) proved to be just as good as warfarin, and possibly superior.
Rivaroxaban also reduced the risk of serious bleeding events, which is the most troubling side effect of warfarin. Dabigatran (Pradaxa), another newer-generation blood thinner, was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to treat atrial fibrillation last month.
This latest study was sponsored by Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development and Bayer Healthcare, the makers of rivaroxaban.
Warfarin is the mainstay for the treatment of patients with atrial fibrillation, which affects some 2.2 million Americans. During atrial fibrillation, the heart's two small upper chambers -- called the atria -- quiver rather than beat methodically, raising the risk of blood clots and eventually a stroke.
The drug is effective in reducing the risk of stroke, but it has significant drawbacks, including the bleeding risk and difficulties with dosing and monitoring.
"In October of 2006, the FDA [U.S. Food and Drug Administration] issued a black-box warning for warfarin due to a growing appreciation of its hazards in routine clinical practice," said Dr. Elaine Hylek, who spoke at a Monday news conference on the findings, although she was not involved with the mammoth study. "The requirement for monitoring has relegated millions of people to no therapy or ineffective therapy because of lack of access to monitoring and an intense search for an alternative with more predictable dose responses."

Democrat Mark Dayton will govern Minnesota
December 8, 2010
37 days after the election, Minnesota's gubernatorial contest is over.
By Eileen McGuire-Mahony
Shortly before noon, Republican Tom Emmer met a crowd of reporters outside his home and confirmed that he has conceded to opponent Mark Dayton.[1]
Minnesota's gubernatorial race had dragged on for weeks, endured court challenges, and gone through a protracted hand recount after initial results showed that Dayton, a former U.S. Senator, was ahead by less than 0.5%, the required margin to avoid a recount.
The week long recount, in which 2.1 million ballots were hand sorted under the watchful eye of observers for both campaigns, ended last week. The process moved on to haggling over disputed, or "challenged" ballots. With Dayton still leading and most of the ballot challenges his team made withdrawn, Emmer had no clear avenue to gain the several thousand votes he would have needed.
His decision means the state board of canvassers can certify the election ahead of its December 14th deadline and that the possible court battle which could have followed is off. Governor-elect Dayton will take office on January 3, 2011.

Slice of Bengal tries to present the traditional craftsmanship of Bengal in a chic, upmarket format
A concept store in Chittaranjan Park, the Bengali hub of the Capital, Slice of Bengal has something for everyone, each with a hint of Bengal! Started recently by husband-wife duo Amurto and Tina Basuray, Slice of Bengal is an emporium of handcrafted Bangla-origin apparels, jewellery, handbags, artefacts and much more. Not taking on the competition from state emporium, the store plans to be in touch with the changing trends.
Having been in the retailing and franchise business for over a decade, planning their maiden store wasn't tough for the Basurays. "The way the products are displayed and the ambience – all combine to exude the flavour of a culture originating from the roots in West Bengal," says Amurto, who is metropolitan with a passion for Bengal. "We wanted to go beyond products that are stocked in state emporiums, as they date back to the older times. Bengal has made a huge fashion shift. No longer are people wearing the traditional white and red taant saari, but a more cosmopolitan version of the same, which we are trying to showcase at Slice of Bengal."
According Tina, "Slice of Bengal imbibes the traditional craftsmanship of Bengal, presented in a chic, upmarket format. Not only Bengalis but people from different cultures and origins are appreciating our products. We have tried to source all our products directly from the artisans and craftsmen of rural Bengal so that they are paid for their effort, thus cutting down the cost of middlemen. Our store houses products that are within the reach of most of the people," she claims.
Keywords: Bengal craftsmanship, Bangla-origin artefacts
