Bennett sentenced to 15 months
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP)
A former NFL first-round draft pick has been sentenced to more than a year in prison for taking part in a fraud scheme.
Michael Bennett was sentenced to 15 months on Friday in federal court in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. He pleaded guilty to wire fraud three months ago.
The 34-year-old Bennett was drafted by the Minnesota Vikings in 2002 and played for six teams, last appearing for the Oakland Raiders in 2010.
Prosecutors say the FBI operated an undercover check-cashing store in North Miami used by Bennett, two other former football players and five others from February through April. The group allegedly cashed about $500,000 in fraudulent tax refund checks.
Bennett's attorney says Bennett ''had nothing to do with cashing fraudulent tax checks, nor was he charged with such.''
Former Raiders and New York Giants defensive tackle William Joseph and former Syracuse player Louis Gacheline have also pleaded guilty to related charges and are awaiting sentencing.

Turck: TURCK Analog I/O Module Increases Application Flexibility with Current and Voltage Signal Combination
The new TURCK 4AI4AO-VI analog I/O module offers compatibility with two of the company's BL distributed I/O products: BL67 and BL Compact system. Featuring four analog inputs for current or voltage and four analog outputs for voltage, the module provides both control and feedback in one convenient package.
The 4AI4AO-VI is designed for use with TURCK's BL67 modular I/O system and BL Compact system. BL67 combines all of the flexibility of an in-the-cabinet I/O system with modularity, ruggedness and connectorization, while the BL Compact system is a revolutionary on-the-machine solution that obtains and transmits signals via diverse fieldbus protocols, without requiring a protective enclosure. Supporting both M8 and M12 I/O connectors and offering compatibility with a variety of communication protocols, such as Ethernet/IP, DeviceNet, CANopen and Modbus TCP, the BL family provides a high degree of I/O versatility for a wide range of applications.
"The combination of both voltage and current analog signal types in one module provides users with unique I/O flexibility," said Don Eichman, Product Specialist for TURCK. "The signal duality of the 4AI4AO-VI, which merges control and feedback functions into a single I/O card, and its compatibility with our already versatile BL family allows our customers to increase overall efficiency, reliability and accuracy for any I/O application."
For enhanced application compatibility, the 4AI4AO-VI is ruggedly constructed to withstand diverse environmental challenges. Operating in temperatures ranging from -40 to 70 degrees Celsius, rated to IP67 and UL listed, the module provides optimal performance in applications that yield extreme temperatures, moisture, shock or vibration—accommodating even the most demanding application requirements.

Joining former Olympians Oli Beckingsale (Endura MTB Racing) and Nick Craig (Scott Syncros Pioneer) on the start line was the 2012 British MTB Marathon Champion Lee Williams (Gateway Cycles), eight time winner of the Three Peaks Cyclo-Cross Rob Jebb (Team Hope Factory Racing) and Scottish cross country mountain bike legend Rab Wardell (Alpine Bikes Racing).
The future of the series was uncertain in 2012 but event organisers SIP Events stepped in over the winter to take on the iconic grass roots series that will run every Wednesday evening for the eight weeks.
With almost double the number of riders in the event this year, the competition was certainly fiercer - but with super-friendly marshals, supporters and sponsors in the arena, and a mix of expert and novice racers on the course, Stilettos On Wheels managed to maintain the fun, supportive atmosphere that sustains its popularity.
There's less than a month to go before the 2013 Endurance Series kicks off again after a brilliant first year of competition in 2012. Up and down the country, at some of the best mountain bike races on the calendar, the biggest names in British Endurance racing will be pushing themselves to the limit for the title of Endurance Series Champion.
Once again the series will combine six well known mountain bike events, spanning a range of distances and durations, to produce the ultimate Mountain Bike Endurance Champions.
The mini-downhill format, masterminded by Naked Racing's Chris Roberts, aims to make downhill racing more accessible to everyone who enjoys the sport. Sunday saw the first ever mini-enduro, Chris' attempt to do the same for the Enduro format of bike racing. The race was held in Devon's Haldon Forest Park, and despite the adverse weather conditions was attended by nearly 150 keen riders, from former world champion Gee Atherton down to people racing for the first time ever!
Dan Cook and Olly Townsend of Exodus Travel went to Cuba to pilot a new course that they had created specifically for cycle tour guides.
The tour guides were all qualified through the Cuban education system in the areas relevant to tourism and tour guiding, but they had only their own experiences in cycling prior to this course.
With the onset of snow, you have the opportunity to encounter some truly fantastic environments on your bike. Despite the ice and the heightened risk of slips and crashes, riding in the snow is actually quite safe (as you are travelling slowly and there are lots of drifts to fall into) and most of all, its fun!.
Like anything new, there is a bit of working out how to do it so you feel comfortable. First though you do have to get out there and try it.
The Shankill Area Project and Glencairn Youth Initiative teamed up with Bike Club to deliver cycling activities for teenagers in Northern Ireland.
Cycling gifts for children are easy to choose: it's a straightforward progression from balance bikes onwards, with bikes and kit regularly outgrown. It's harder with adults who have been cycling for years. Anything they desperately need they will have bought already.
The trick is to find something that they wouldn't necessarily have – or at least, not yet – but that they will appreciate and will still find useful.
Brunel Way Pump Track, near Bristol City Centre has been designed to allow riders to ride around the undulating course by using jumps and rollers to gain momentum.

I must apologize for my attitude then... it's certainly not appropriate for discussion to reject all thoughts, let alone for science and comprehension. As anyone on here, I am also passionate about tennis, which can be both bothersome and useful and I apparently slipped into exaggeration.
Of course, referencing only one article is not sufficient and a comparison of Federer versus some other pro does not support the point I was trying to make. Obviously,
many factors influence spin production
: from the racket tilt at impact, to the swing path, the ball's initial trajectory prior impact and it spin rate, the type of strings, the type of frame, the head size, the stringing pattern, etc.
Just using two or three players is precisely pulling statistics out of an hat... just like using numbers to qualify an impression we have -- it's not any better than what I criticized other people about. Fortunately for us, passion does not equate stupidity, although it produces common symptoms at times, so we can get back to talking in a more civilized manner -- and by "we," I mean "me."
I'll look through the posts and compile the possible answers in the next post I'll publish to update the discussion and allow us to move forward with it.

The Salt SuiteRead MoreThe Salt Suite's halotherapy rooms were carved from 24,000 pounds of salt imported from the Dead Sea, historically noted for its healing and wellness properties. The naturally antibacterial salt lies in layers upon the floor and walls, also flavoring the dry aerosol emissions that circulate within the fresh, temperate air pumped into each room by a halogenerator. Twenty-one minerals found within the salt aim to detoxify, cleanse, and replenish bodies, easing the effects of ailments such as sinusitis, eczema, allergies, asthma, COPD, and flavorless-popcorn syndrome. The adult suite seats up to seven guests in individual spaces—while relaxing in cushioned chairs, patrons can mind-surf on a wave of soft music, count the number of semicolons in a magazine, or click boldly into unexplored sectors of the Internet. Toys and television entertain little busybodies inside the kids' room, where salt covers the ground and an underwater vista fills the space between floor and ceiling. In addition to salt therapy, The Salt Suite offers Yin, Vinyasa, and Hatha yoga sessions in one of its trademark salt chambers.3100 South Federal HighwayDelray Beach, FL US
Breathe Salt & YogaRead MoreA reclining figure, drink in hand, catches up on a neglected novel as salty sea breezes fill her lungs in a computer-controlled environment. Inside Breathe Salt & Yoga's salt room, ivory stucco walls surround guests in a serene, cave-like escape from the seagulls, tourists, and bloodthirsty mermen of the beach. Here, everything is white, quiet, and still. In much the same way the Victorian leisure class recovered from maladies with trips to seaside resorts or moon colonies, clients at Breathe Salt & Yoga drink up the salutary salt air. The concentrated, pure crystals in the atmosphere flush respiratory systems, sending in waves of healing benefits to counteract the effects of allergies, eczema, and rhinitis Three treatment rooms afford distinct environments—the quiet relaxation room for subdued contemplation, the children and family room for fostering familial health, and the yoga room, where yogis can practice their art.

Central Pulse coach Robyn Broughton has lured back two key players from her Southern Steel days to sign for the Wellington-based franchise in next year's trans-Tasman netball league.
Former Silver Ferns Donna Wilkins and Liana Leota were both mainstays of Broughton's time at the Steel in the four years she coached the Invercargill franchise.
Wilkins, 34, shot at 90.2 per cent for the Steel this year in forming an impressive combination with Silver Ferns goal attack Jodi Brown.
Leota, named MVP in the 2010 trans-Tasman league, has spent a year in the United Kingdom where her husband Johnny plays rugby for the Sale Sharks.
The Pulse have also re-signed Silver Ferns defender Katrina Grant, who will again captain the team, and vice-captain Joline Henry, who has committed to return to the Pulse following the birth of her baby early next year.
Amongst those returning are midcourter Millie Lees, who had a stand-out series with the Silver Ferns, and Caitlin Thwaites, who made her debut for the Australian Diamonds in the recent quad series.
Te Huinga Selby Rickit, Paula Griffin, Victoria Smith, Daya Wiffen and Amber Bellringer have also signed on with the Pulse for another year, joined by a new face in former New Zealand under-21 player Claire Kersten.
Broughton says the squad promise much for next year's competition.
"They are players with outstanding skills and the challenge will be to develop their individual skills for the benefit of the team," she said.
Central Pulse: Katrina Grant (captain), Joline Henry, Amber Bellringer, Paula Griffin, Claire Kersten, Camilla Lees, Liana Leota, Te Huinga Selby Rickit, Victoria Smith, Caitlin Thwaites, Daya Wiffen, Donna Wilkins.

I am proud to announce that my article on Canada - South Korea Free Trade Agreement (CKFTA) has just been published by Intellectual Property Magazine. You can buy or subscribe to the magazine at http://www.intellectualpropertymagazine.com/.
The publisher generously agreed to its republication, so you can read my comments below.
On September 22, 2014, Canada's Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Korean President Park Geun-hye celebrated the signing of Canada-Korea Free Trade Agreement (CKFTA). This article's objective is to provide the context for and brief comments on IP-related provisions of CKFTA.
The official Canadian summary of the Agreement's highlights states that the Agreement "will ensure that Canadian IP rights-holders can do business with confidence in the South Korean market"1..
This appears somewhat condescending given that Canada is not exactly known for being at the forefront of intellectual property protection. Just the opposite, since 1995, Canada has been on the U.S. Government's Special "Watch List" as a country where IP protection is problematic2.. Canada's position is that its failure to adequately protect IP is an attempt to find "an appropriate balance between the interests of IP rights-holders and the interests of users." How using somebody else's property without permission can ever be a right is being conveniently overlooked.
The author of this article is a Canadian lawyer and does not purport to know Korean law, but statistics for both countries' participation in international treaties on intellectual property demonstrate that Korea takes IP more seriously. Canada is a party to 10 international treaties (of which two Canada joined in 2014)3., while Korea is a party to 184.:

Many IP-related provisions of CKFTA merely reference other international treaties to which Canada and Korea are parties. This is important because Canada does not enforce international treaties directly. To have the force of law in Canada, provisions of all international conventions, treaties and agreements (including CKFTA) must be implemented in national Canadian legislation.
Add to this rather vague language of Canadian statutes on intellectual property and scarcity of precedent law—and you will see the problem. How would you know if a certain provision of an international treaty needs implementation into the national legislation if two lawyers can't agree on what the national legislation actually is? Some Canadian lawyers, myself included, believe that extensive scope of exceptions from copyright conflicts with Canada's obligations under the Berne Convention and TRIPS, while some others believe that it doesn't. As a result, the parties are likely to have different assumptions about how these provisions should be interpreted.
One of the declared objectives of CKFTA is "to achieve a balance between the rights of IP right-holders and the legitimate interests of IP users.5." Notice that the treaty does not use the controversial words "users' rights", however there still remains the question, what legitimate interests do IP users have regarding intellectual property of others. Who determines what interests are legitimate? Is using someone else's music for your YouTube videos your legitimate interest? Is copying textbooks for the purposes of education a legitimate interest? What about using pictures on a blog by a non-profit?
CKFTA reaffirms both parties' obligations under TRIPS as a minimal standard6., confirms the national treatment requirement7., and opens the door for a more extensive protection for and enforcement of intellectual property, as long as such extensive protection "does not contravene CKFTA.8." Which, again, brings the question of users and their rights and legitimate interests. By definition, protection of exclusive rights comes at the expense of everyone other than the owner of that exclusive right. Logically, it is impossible to unilaterally offer more extensive protection to IP owners without disturbing the "balance of interest" that CKFTA purports to achieve.
The Treaty specifically opens the door for sound trademarks and forbids limiting registrable trademarks to those that are visually perceptible9.. This is in line with the law established in Canada after a 2012 Practice Notice by the Canadian Intellectual Property Office and the recent amendments to the Trade-Marks Act.
CKFTA requires the parties to protect collective marks (trademarks owned by an organization for the use by its members) and certification marks (trademarks for the use by anyone who meets a defined standard prescribed by the owner of the mark), whether such trademarks are protected as a separate category or not10.. While Canadian law protects certification marks, it does not (nor do the soon-to-be-in-force amendments to the Trade-Marks Act) refer collective marks.
The Agreement confirms the right (but not an obligation) of the parties to recognize unregistered, common-law, trademarks11..
CKFTA requires both parties to provide extra protection to well-known trademarks, whether or not such marks are registered, included on a list of well-known marks, or already recognized as well-known12.. Such protection must be conferred even if the goods and services are not identical or even similar, as long as using the well-known trademark in relation to non-similar goods or services "would indicate a connection between those goods or services and the owner of the trademark." The interesting thing is that Canadian trademark regime is uncertain about the status of well-known marks. The leading case is the 2006 decision of the Supreme Court of Canada in Mattel Inc. v. 3894207 Canada Inc.13. that confirmed that difference in goods and services must be considered, however, in different cases such difference may carry greater or smaller weight. Whatever the interpretation, it is more narrow than what is commonly expected from protection conferred to well-known trademarks. Unfortunately, CKFTA does not provide more clarity whether Canada's current standard is about to change or whether the countries would have two different standards for treating well-known marks.
The parties agreed that subject to any prior rights, Korea must protect the names "Canadian Whisky" and "Canadian Rye Whisky", and Canada must protect the names "Goryeo Hongsam", "Goryeo Baeksam", "Goryeo Susam", and "Icheon Ssal" and their translations, respectively, "Korean Red Ginseng", "Korean White Ginseng", "Korean Fresh Ginseng" and "Icheon Rice"14..
CKFTA establishes no new general rules for geographical indications, so its effect on Canadian laws will be rather limited.
The Agreement reaffirms that both parties shall comply with the Rome Convention, the Berne Convention, WCT and WPPT15.. Each party must provide that authors "have the right to authorize or prohibit all reproductions of their works.16." Yet, there is no indication how this provision corresponds with massive expansion of circumstances where it is legal in Canada to use works without permission and despite prohibitions from the copyright owner.
CKFTA also sets forth that the parties must provide adequate legal protection and effective legal remedies against the circumvention of technological measures used by copyright owners to prevent unauthorized use of their IP17.. Unfortunately, however, this provision contains a qualification that a party may exclude from such protection instances where the measures are circumvented to do that which may be permitted through an applicable copyright exception. This is how the law stands in Canada, which completely defeats the idea behind the rules about technological measures. The point of these provisions is to give IP owners an effective way to deal with piracy by deeming that the very act of circumventing technological measures is an infringement. In Canada, only an act of circumventing technological measures for infringing purposes is deemed an infringement, so it is not enough to prove the fact of the circumvention.
This section affirms the standard requirements for patent protection—the invention must be new, involve an inventive step (be non-obvious), and be capable of industrial application (be useful)18.. The parties may exclude from patentability inventions related to cloning, methods of medical treatment of people and animals, and otherwise if providing patent protection to an invention would go against public order and morality19..
CKFTA contains provisions imposing an obligation on the parties to provide effective enforcement procedures against IP infringements and ensure that such procedures "are not unnecessarily complicated or costly" and that they do not "entail unreasonable time-limits or unwarranted delays." It is open to a debate whether Canadian court system meets these requirements20..
The Agreement also prescribes that certain provisions must be implemented to ensure that adequate damages are available to an IP owner whose rights have been infringed, including award of "appropriate lawyer's fees" to the party who prevailed in trial21..
CKFTA deals with several procedural matters. It contains a provision requiring both countries to have mechanisms to compel disclosure of information that may possess an alleged infringer that would be required for an IP owner to prove their case22.. It specifically addresses various preliminary orders and injunctions that may be available to IP owners.23.
The measures prescribed by the Agreement are in line with the Canada's existing regime as proposed to be amended by the Combatting Counterfeit Products Act, which is due for its third hearing in parliament.
CKFTA requires each party to provide for criminal procedures and penalties for the unauthorized copying of a cinematographic work from a performance in a movie theatre. Interestingly, this is the only infringement that the parties agree must be punishable criminally.
Unlike a more rigorous and effective "notice and takedown" approach, Canada has recently implemented what's called a "notice and notice" system of dealing with internet infringements. In Canada, to avoid being held in violation of IP rights, ISPs must forward an IP owner's notice to the subscriber (the actual infringer), but they are not required (without a court order) to disclose the subscriber's personal information nor to ensure that the infringing materials are removed.
CKFTA does not require Canada to change this regime, but provides that a party may require that an ISP expeditiously disclose to an IP owner information sufficient to identify a subscriber whose account was allegedly used for infringement if the owner has filed a legally sufficient claim for copyright infringement24..
While the chapter on intellectual property is one of the more extensive in CKFTA it hardly adds much to the regime already established through other international treaties, such as TRIPS, WCT and WPPT.
While free trade between countries is certainly desirable, to present the IP-related chapter of CKFTA as a legal breakthrough for either Canada or South Korea would be a serious exaggeration.

First of all, I am sorry for not posting to this blog more frequently.
I do have an excuse though.
For the past several months, I have been working very hard writing my new book, The Ultimate Insider's Guide to Intellectual Property – When to See an IP Lawyer and Ask Educated Questions about Copyright, Trademarks, Patents, Trade Secrets, Industrial Designs, Contracts, and Other Ways of Protecting Your Ideas and Covering Your Assets®.
The publisher is now going through the final motions to get it out to Amazon, which may take another week or so.

As I was watching the latest Dragons' Den on my laptop a couple of days ago, I was bombarded with the same advertisement, over and over again.
Ford was adamant to show me how great their new car is.
The ad closed with this line:
Only Ford has Ecoboost fuel economy
Curiously, the ad does not explain what the Ecoboost fuel economy actually is or how it is better (if at all) from all other options that exist on the market today.
What matters is that only Ford has it.
How do they achieve this unique position on the marketplace?
They have a registered trademark for the word ECOBOOST®
Now, nobody can use the word ECOBOOST in association with automobiles and automobile engines.
What the system does is irrelevant, because trademarks do not protect the substance, only the name.
But this is a great example how protecting a name can boost your advertisement, marketing and (hopefully) sales.
P.S. If you look at our Trademark Factory™ website, you will notice that we do what may look like the same thing there when we claim that we offer our unique Triple Peace-of-Mind Guarantee™
Our offer is indeed unique, but even if (when) other law firms decide to copy our offer, they still would not be able to call it a "Triple Peace-of-Mind Guarantee", because it is our trademark.

Caffeinated: Afternoon Drowsies Tug at Workers
Without fail, Joel Darrow runs into a wall of torpor at 3:30 in the afternoon. The financial engineer describes it as "brick, thick and high."
He doesn't exactly go to sleep, he says, but he might as well. "It's that point in between when you know you're awake but you're basically unable to move," he says. Typically, he's looking at his computer screen, his back to his office door and a pencil in hand. "Next thing I know," he says, "the pencil's on the floor, and I have a thousand-mile stare through the back of the screen."
A colleague once asked Darrow if he was OK. "It would be easy for someone to think I popped some pill and was in La-La Land," he says. "Fighting it just prolongs it, and self-medicating with sugar provides brief relief followed by deeper stupor."
No one exactly schedules a slumberous coma each afternoon, but for many people, it's more punctual than the coffee cart. No sooner do you get back from lunch than every document seems like an opiate, every colleague a sheep to count, and the creepy carpeting an enticing feather bed. It's the only time of day when the incessant chatter of a cube mate can fade like a lullaby. Even insomniacs can't always withstand the contagion of a yawn in the middle of the afternoon.
To stay awake, Pam Sturchio Quandt resorts to such remedies as candy bars, frozen yogurt and coffee. Bribery also comes in handy. "I'll treat the department if someone goes to get coffee," says the online marketing director.
Neal Katz, who works in an industry that's contracting rapidly from layoffs, says fear of becoming one of them is what keeps him bright eyed. "If my eyelids feel like they're 100 pounds each," he says, "I still do what I have to do to snap out of it."
Peri Brand, a recent Indiana University graduate, tries to talk herself through it. "You've made it this far," she tells herself shortly after 2 p.m. But only a can of Red Bull, with its heart- pounding 80 milligrams of caffeine, really helps.
The tussle to stay awake is clearly a sign that work is at odds with our nature. We're a society that has ritualized the sleep deprivation that caused such disasters as the Exxon Valdez and Chernobyl, so our daily battle is also evidence of just how dumb the planet's smartest beings have become.
"You're phenomenally stupid when you're sleep deprived, and you're too stupid to realize it," says Bob Stickgold, assistant professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. "We are certainly the only known organism that sleep-deprives itself."
Most mammals are designed to stay awake if there's rapidly changing emotional input, Stickgold says. But monkeys, for example, don't tend to put their social needs on a collision course with their sleep needs, the way humans do.
The main problem is that the mechanics of the human body don't mesh very well with a 9-to-5 work day. Researchers have found that when humans are fed at regular intervals and deprived of all sources of time, such as light and clocks, they have the greatest tendency to fall asleep during two periods of the day: between 1 a.m. and 4 a.m. and 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. These are natural dips in our biological clocks, or circadian rhythms, and the core body temperature drops along with a person's eyelids.
Potentially plunging us farther into oblivion is a metabolic tendency — called the post-prandial dip — to get tuckered out after a meal, though researchers disagree on how much of it is attributable to the meal.
"In the afternoon, all these physiological and mental processes begin to go into a dip," says Sara Mednick, a researcher at the Salk Institute. "This dip used to be thought of as a post-lunch dip. But it's been shown to occur when people eat or don't eat." In fact, from the moment you wake up in the morning, she says, "there's pressure driving you back to sleep."
There's also increasing evidence that in the Middle Ages people napped all the time, Mednick says. But the advent of timepieces, light bulbs and factories made naptime inconvenient for all but the crankiest toddlers. "We're allowing society and pressures of modern age to prescribe our sleep and thought schedules," she says.
Which is why it's such a struggle for Kimberlee Peters, a mortgage-loan processor, to fight off the languor after she eats Chinese food. "I want to crawl under the desk," she says. Besides walking around, her defense methods focus largely on mild forms of self-inflicted torture. She takes her halogen desk light and blasts it in her face. To increase her discomfort, she also kneels sideways in her chair and listens to a thrashing Limp Bizkit CD. Gossip also can breathe a little life into her. "I've actually never seen someone get so pumped from gossip," confides a friend.
Bob Stern, a retail advertising manager, resorts to more spiritual stimulants. They include yoga and transcendental meditation, which bored him to sleep when he first tried it but now re-energizes him. When the yoga and meditation aren't convenient, he turns to Hershey bars, Baby Ruths and Snickers. "They keep me happy," he says.

GARY Waddock wants answers from James Constable and Tom Newey about their futures by the end of this week.
The pair were the only players out of contract at Oxford United this summer to be offered new deals last week.
They have spent the weekend considering the terms and Waddock wants a resolution in the next few days so both parties know where they stand.
The U's head coach said: "Players will want to consider their options, which is fair enough.
"But I also have to consider what I need to do here for this club.
"If you allow it to drag on through the summer it doesn't help anybody and I would like a quick answer.
"They either want to be a part of it, or they don't, but saying that I want both of the players here."
Along with captain Jake Wright, who had an additional season clause activated by the club, Constable was the highest-profile United player out of contract this summer.
The 29-year-old is the longest-serving member of the squad, has been their top-scorer for the last six seasons and is just two goals away from becoming their all-time top marksman.
Newey was only signed last summer, but was United's first choice left back all season, making 47 starts in all competitions.
Waddock made it clear the ball was in the players' court and felt the deals were fair.
He said: "In the current climate, the salaries they've been offered are good.
"If you look at any football club now you have to be mindful of the figures you are banding about.
"It's up to the players whether they want to be a part of it.
"We've offered them contracts because we want them here, it's as simple as that."

I think full poly and poly/multi will give you that. Gut/poly is a little different. It gives you all that spin and more but a bit less on the "power curve", though the extra spin makes up for it somewhat. Gut/poly is better if you want some on demand power for put aways. If I used gut/poly I would probably change the poly out every 3 hours because I notice a big difference after that.
I also liked the Mono ZX/Hexy hybrid I've been using because it has more spin than full multi and also has a poly-like "power curve", though the power in general is high. It's a good alternative for people with arm problems. I just strung up full Mono ZX last night, and I'm anxious to try it.

"That album is something I've known about for a long time," Dâm Funk says of Magnetic Eyes, which was written, recorded and produced by Jeff Phelps in 1985. Thanks to the German label Tomlab, more people are finding out about Magnetic Eyes today. Along with the Tony Cook compilation produced by Dâm's cohort Peanut Butter Wolf and released on Stones Throw, Magnetic Eyes is a rediscovered jewel of '80s funk. But whereas the Cook album has roots in classic soul, Phelps' album is a cool, synth-powered collection that brings techno figurehead the Electrifying Mojo to mind. It's also blessed with peerless cover art and -- as you'll find out after the jump -- it inspired a fantastic music video.
If the Pointer Sisters danced with neutrons, then Phelps -- to paraphrase Magnetic Eyes' "K-Shell" -- danced with electrons, making bedroom recordings with a Tascam Portastudio 244. Sleek and minimalist, his compositions are on point. Electronic elements mingle with delicate jazz touches. The most powerful and pop example is "Hear My Heart," where a Yusef Lateef-like woodwind briefly duets with a beguiling, raw (no studio enhancement trickery whatsoever) vocal by teenager Antoinette Marie Pugh. Beginning with a basketball game and moving on to closeups of red fingernails and tearful eyes (not to mention scenes of champagne fireside romance), the video for "Hear My Heart" is, like the best Jan Terri videos, a no-budget delight. The song itself is lovely and hit-worthy.
Jeff Phelps, "Hear My Heart," from Magnetic Eyes:
While Phelps lived in Houston, TX at the time, the sound he crafts on Magnetic Eyes' title instrumental track is a precursor to Detroit techno (the plaintively moving "Don't Fall Apart On Me" could be an Inner City demo), not to mention the retro-informed future funk that Dâm Funk creates today; Dâm's collaborator Ramona Gonzalez of Nite Jewel is also a fan of the album. Knowing this, I had to ask Dâm about the Electrifying Mojo, whose late-night radio sets -- bringing together Kraftwerk and Parliament -- helped forge the Detroit techno sound.
A sample of the Electrifying Mojo on late-night radio:
"I have some old tapes of his," Dâm said, "His concepts were great, and he played great music. It's all about the delivery and the passion. That's what I try to do with my selector sets [as a DJ]. I want them to be special, more to the left angle and the dark side."
The dark angle and the left side are both abundantly present in the cover art of Magnetic Eyes, which was created by an artist named Garry Hollie that Phelps knew at the time. While introverted instrumentals frame the album, it has a round-the-way creative and collaborative essence, with one lyric ("On the Corner") penned by Phelps' wife, and another ("Wrong Place, Wrong Time") by one of his co-workers. Phelps still makes music today, and in a recent interview, he says he listens to a lot of Steely Dan (a likely influence on Magnetic Eyes), as well as Gil Scott-Heron, Tupac, and...Nite Jewel.

- Category: Saturday's NHL Picks
The Devils should beat the Isles on Saturday, if they can avoid a shootout
We're getting so close that you can almost taste it. Playoff hockey, a time of the year where every team cranks it up another notch, and the regular season games seem to pale in comparison. I'm going to keep this short and sweet, as I'm hopped up on some good pain meds after surgery on Thursday. So if some of these picks seem a little erratic, they seemed like great reasoning and logic at the time of writing. Hope everyone enjoys all the action on Saturday with 12 games on the schedule. Let's get on to the action:
Sharks @ Avalanche
The last four games between these two teams have been decided by a single goal, with each team winning two apiece. Each of those four winners was the home team and the Avalanche boast the league's best record in one-goal games this season at 25-4-6. The Avs join the Penguins and Blackhawks as the only teams with five 50 point scorers on the season, and if not for injuries to Alex Tanguay and PA Parenteau the number may have been at seven by the end of the year. Of those three teams only Colorado has all five of its players with 20 or more goals, talk about a balanced attack.
Pick: H (Avalanche win)
Blue Jackets @ Hurricanes
The teams have split the season series at two apiece up to this point, and despite Columbus holding a 7-3 edge over Carolina in their last 10 head-to-head matchups; it's the Canes who have managed to win the last two meetings while outshooting Columbus 82-44. The Jackets are in the thick of it for one of the last Wild Card spots in the Eastern Conference, and Carolina is still mathematically alive but they will be playing the spoilers in this one. Carolina's special teams have been stellar lately going 5-for-19 on the power play, and killing off all 16 shorthanded opportunities in their last five games. The Blue Jackets will also be playing a second straight night after taking on the division leading Penguins on Friday night.
Pick: H (Hurricanes win)
Lightning @ Sabres
The Sabres have scored the first goal of a hockey game in a league low 27 games this season, but even when they get on the board first they are the worst team in the league with a .333 win percentage. The Lightning on the other hand are trying to track down Montreal (two points ahead but have played two more games) for home ice advantage during the first round of the playoffs between those two teams (barring a monumental collapse). In a rare feat the last time these two teams met the Sabres not only beat the Lightning in Tampa by a score of 3-1 but also managed to outshoot the Bolts 44-21. Tampa Bay will be looking to return the favour, as they are currently rolling, having picked up points in each of their last 10 games, while Buffalo has managed one win in their last 11.
Pick: V (Lightning win)
Devils @ Islanders
Trading for Cory Schneider in the offseason hasn't helped the Devils' chances in the shootout this season, as the team has lost all nine games that have gone to a skills competition this year and 13 straight dating back to last year. Even worse is that the team has combined to go 1-for-28 this season (3.6%), which is beyond abysmal, the next lowest team is the Canucks with a 16% scoring rate (8 for 50). The Devils have won the last two games on Long Island by an 8-2 margin, and are 14-9-3 versus the Metropolitan Division this season while the Isles are a meager 8-15-3.
Pick: V+ (Devils win by two or more)
Wild @ Coyotes
Both teams are currently hanging onto the two Wild Card spots in the Western Conference, however both team have been trending in opposite directions as of late. The Wild have been skidding somewhat with a 3-4-3 record, while the Coyotes have gone 7-2-1 to pull themselves five points clear of both Vancouver and Dallas for the eighth and final playoff spot. The road team has won seven of the last nine matchups between these two teams. The style both of these teams play and with points extremely valuable this late in the season, this game seems destined to go beyond 60 minutes to ensure each squad gets a point. However, only two of their last 10 matchups have gone into extra time. The Coyotes are ranked 29th in win percentage (.294) in the NHL when they outshoot their opponents, compared to 6th ranked when being outshot (.639).
Pick: V (Wild win)
Jets @ Kings
The Kings are rolling just at the right time as they are currently on a five game winning streak that has seen them outscore their opponents 17-9. The Jets on the other hand are coming off a great effort in rallying from behind to beat the Sharks in San Jose, however it's too little too late as they're all but eliminated from the playoffs, sitting nine points back of 8th place Phoenix. The Kings won earlier this month in Winnipeg despite being outshot 41-18. This will be Winnipeg's first visit to the Staples Center as the Jets.
Pick: H (Kings win)

Privermectin Drench for sheep DU3217$57.99
Product Description
Privermectin® (ivermectin) Drench for Sheep is a liquid, administered orally for sheep, consisting of an 0.08% solution of ivermectin. Discovered and developed by scientists from Merck Sharp and Dohme Research Laboratories, ivermectin is a unique chemical entity. As such, the chances of cross-resistance in parasites that have developed resistance to other wormers is highly unlikely. Additionally, its convenience, broad spectrum efficacy, and wide therapeutic index make Privermectin® (ivermectin) Drench for Sheep an exceptionally valuable product for parasite control in sheep. Consult your veterinarian for assistance in diagnosis, treatment, and control of parasitism.
Dosing Privermectin® (ivermectin) Drench for Sheep is formulated only for administration to sheep; do not use in other species. The recommended dose level is 3 mL of Privermectin® (ivermectin) Drench for Sheep, containing 2400 mcg ivermectin, which is sufficient to treat 26 pounds of body weight.
Advantages Unique Chemistry-unrelated To Existing Formulations.
Because Privermectin® (ivermectin) Drench for Sheep is chemically different, cross-resistance is unlikely in parasite strains which may have developed resistance to other wormers.
Broad Spectrum Effectiveness. One low-volume dose effectively treats and controls many gastrointestinal roundworms (including Haemonchus contortus), lungworms, and nasal bots.
Easy Administration. Privermectin® (ivermectin) Drench for Sheep can be administered with any standard drenching equipment or any equipment that provides a consistent dose volume.
Privermectin® (ivermectin) Drench for Sheep is an 0.08% w/v pale amber colored solution of ivermectin.
Ivermectin is derived from the avermectins, a family of highly active, broad spectrum, antiparasitic agents which are produced from fermentation products of Streptomyces avermitilis.

To avoid underdosing, it is important to get the dose according to the weight of the heaviest sheep in a group (ewes, lambs or rams), not the average weight. Several of the largest sheep should be weighed, judgment by the eyecan be deceiving.
Any standard drenching equipment, or any equipment which provides a consistent dose volume, can be used. Dose rates and equipment should be checked before drenching commences. Be sure the head is properly positioned for each sheep to receive the full dose.
Privermectin® (ivermectin) Drench for Sheep is readily accepted by sheep, but inconsequential coughing may be observed in some animals during and for several minutes after drenching. If slobbering occurs, the dose may be lost, and that sheep should be redosed.Learn More

Get on track with Rails-to-Trails
Content provided by Coca-Cola Company
Talk about innovative recycling! For over 5 years, The Coca-Cola Company has partnered with Rails-to-Trails Conservancy to convert old railroad tracks across the country into new green spaces where community members can enjoy all kinds of physical activity.
With the advent of the airlines, the popularity of train travel in the country declined and thousands of miles of old tracks became useless. Thanks to this program, the space is now being given back to communities.
The Coca-Cola Company has donated $500,000 to help the Rails-to-Trails Conservancy and other local trail organizations to plan, improve and build trails across the U.S. With over 15,000 miles of track already converted, the program has helped encourage people in communities all over the country to embrace more active, healthy lifestyles in the outdoors.

President Obama Eager To Address Sensitive Controversies Facing the Sports World
Published June 10, 2014
HOUSE PARTY: In Hartford, Dom Amore notes the Univ. of Connecticut men's and women's national champion basketball teams visited the White House yesterday, and in his East Room remarks, Obama "sprinkled in humor to honor the Huskies' achievements." Obama: "It is just a remarkable thing what these two programs have accomplished. The women were a perfect 40-0 and won their games by an average of 34 points. There was not a lot of suspense. Now, I did not pick the men's team to win. But neither did anybody else, unless they went to UConn. Tell the truth" (HARTFORD COURANT, 6/10).
