Scouting Report
On his family moving to Florida at age 12:
I don't even know where I had the idea to stay (in Michigan). My dad had gone down there probably a month before the rest of the family went. He called me and said, we are going to be moving the family to Florida, we have a job opportunity here, nothings going on in Michigan and what do you want to do.
I flat out told him, 'I'm staying'. He said, well, it's your decision. I couldn't believe being a 12 year old kid, your parents leave you that control, but they have always been behind me in that. So I decided to stay and I lived with my grandparents for four years until I was 16 and drafted to Windsor and my parents ended up moving back that summer.
On making his decision to stay in Michigan to play hockey:
As far as them moving to Florida and me deciding to stay, you know what, I really wanted to play hockey. I started pretty late, I started when I was seven, seven and a half and I knew from there I wanted to do this and I wanted to pursue it. So when it came down to it, it was a pretty easy decision for me. Probably harder on them than it was on me.
On diner time with nine children in the family:
Its crazy. The kids are good, though. Mom puts dinner on the table, everybody waits, nobody touches anything, we get it all served out and nobody touches anything until we pray and mom has got to eat first so everyone has to wait until mom serves her plate. The kids are really good, respectful, good mannered kids. It goes over pretty smoothly. It can be hectic at times. Dinner time is kind of tiring for some of the kids, younger guys and they kind of get ornery and excitable at dinner but normally they are all pretty good.
On being the oldest of nine:
It's a lot of responsibility, I mean, having eight siblings underneath you, and one on the way, actually. But having eight siblings underneath you, you carry a lot of responsibility. Mom and dad cannot do it on their own. When I'm at home, it's a lot of work for me but you know what I cherish it. Family is so big in everything. They have always been there for me so for me to help out and give back to them it's a good thing.
On his best family story
: Best family story … there are some good ones but you know, the move back to Michigan from Florida was kind of crazy. We had movers come in and they were going to do it and they tried to charge us double the cost for moving the whole house, and we just decided that day, dad said, you know, we are not doing it, let's rent a truck. We rented a truck and dad and I and one family friend, we loaded up the house and him one day and we started out that night. I had a car and my parents had the van and my dad had to drive the truck, so that was crazy. It was a crazy two day trip, kids changing cars left and right to give mom a break. I would drive the van once in awhile so she could rest. It was crazy.
On his style of play:
I'm a big body and like to get down low and be physical and create space for other guys and get to the front of the net and put pucks in the net. But also I do a lot of little things right. I kill penalties. I take pride in that. I take pride in blocking shots and doing little things, dumping the puck and getting things going. I try to be a leader all the time when I'm out there and that's kind of the things I think that set me apart.
On his whole family being at the STAPLES Center in June:
Yeah. We are working on that but I think so. I think they are all going to be there. Probably the little guys will probably all be wearing their Watson 61 jerseys from Windsor. So they will be easily recognizable.
On the thought of being drafted:
It's going to be amazing for them to be able to be there and experience it with me. It's going to make it that much better. When I was 12, I lived away from them and to be able to come back and enjoy it and be a part of it, it's going to be unbelievable. I know for them, too, they are going to be extremely proud and excited for me to have an opportunity like that. It's going to be a good thing.
On his siblings:
They all play different sports. None of them really play hockey. I have a brother, the next oldest will be 15 in March, he plays tennis and baseball. He's a good little tennis player, too. So we'll see how he does in that and the rest of them, they are all pretty athletic but can't get all of them in hockey. It's an expensive sport and they are all playing basketball and soccer at their schools and stuff like that. We'll see what happens. But they are all really good little athletes.
On his favorite hockey moment so far:
Winning the Memorial Cup for sure. Being able to do that, especially losing the first two games there, I didn't really play much and unfortunately with an injury, don't want to wish that on anybody but gave me an opportunity to go out there and play big minutes and have an opportunity to contribute more to that team.
It was the most unreal experience. You bond with those guys. It's such a great bonding experience. You become like family and throughout that whole year, and now winning the Memorial Cup, you are always going to have that with everybody there.

Green prefab goes Lego
First it was gingerbread. Now, architect Michelle Kaufmann's prefabulous mkSolaire gets the Lego treatment.
Wed, May 06, 2009 at 08:25 AM
Oakland-based designer, architect and eco-entrepreneur Michelle Kaufmann has been one busy lady in 2009. The green prefab guru released a book back in January, went carbon neutral on Earth Day, sat down for coffee and a chat over at Design*Sponge in April, and, of course, continues to impress with the work coming out of her namesake architectural design firm, Michelle Kaufmann Designs.
Kaufmann ended 2008 on a tasty, playful note by re-imagining some of her most famous architectural works like the mkSolaire and the mkLotus with gingerbread (gingerbread made from organic ingredients, natch). Now, at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry's Kaufmann-designed Smart Home: Green + Wired exhibit, the mkSolaire is recreated in another playful (but non-edible) medium: Lego blocks.
The legoSolaire, on display now at the Smart Home exhibit, is an uncannily faithful facsimile of the original structure right down to the green roof. Well, about as faithful as you can get when working with plastic construction toys of Danish extraction. Like Kaufmann's gingerbread creations, the legoSolaire not only looks really cool but also serves a deeper purpose: To get kids excited about the relationship between green building and the health of our planet.
I would have gone gaga over something like this as a kid. One of my early "grown-up goals" (somewhere in between bird on a wire, dolphin trainer, interior designer, Disneyland employee, rock star and storybook illustrator) was to become an architect. I would spend hours building intricate structures out of plain wooden blocks and Lincoln Logs — not so much Legos as I was a pint-sized minimalist — and then populating them with Playmobil people or whatever action figures I was currently obsessed with.
Back then, I wasn't hip to photovoltaics and rainwater collection systems nor was I aware of the impact that homes have on the environment. But times have changed. So parents, if you have a building-fixated kid on your hands, use this as an opportunity to open up a dialogue about environmental concerns around the home. After all, it's much more exciting than sitting down and explaining a utility bill to them.

That's a relatively common occurrence. In 1996, motorists in Minnetonka hit 160 deer. That figure rose to 168 a year later, but, owing to more trap-and-kills, dropped to 147 last year. Average damages to vehicles are calculated at between $2,500 and $3,000 per accident. Of course, deer-related roadway mayhem is not just a problem in Minnetonka. According to the DNR, there are about 4,000 car-deer collisions in the seven-county area annually, and around 15,000 statewide. Nationwide, various experts estimate that accidents involving deer result in up to 200 human fatalities annually, around 29,000 nonfatal injuries, and nearly $1 billion in damage to vehicles.
Suburbia, it turns out, appeals to whitetail deer for many of the same reasons it appeals to its ever-expanding human population. With a mix of big wooded lots, rolling terrain, wetlands, and ample swaths of parkland, Minnetonka, like many affluent second-ring suburbs, offers a perfect "mosaic of habitat" for whitetail, according to Katherine DonCarlos, an urban wildlife specialist with the DNR. In addition, vegetable gardens and ornamental plantings provide the animals with a veritable buffet, offering foodstuffs that are more nutritious and more attractive than much indigenous flora. And so, in the absence of natural predators--wolves, coyotes, and bears disappeared long ago from the area--deer have prospered in Minnetonka. "The only predator you've got out here has four tires on it and weighs a couple thousand pounds. That's what kills deer," Belfanz notes wryly.
Common suburban deer-removal methods fall into two categories, both approved by the DNR: "Trap and shoot," as practiced in Minnetonka, and open-field sharpshooting. In Eden Prairie, parks and natural resources manager Stuart Fox says that a citizens' committee rejected trap and shoot because of worries over adding the stress of confinement to the animals' extermination. Instead, over the past five years, sharpshooters--firing over baited fields--have killed a total of 590 deer. "We try to do it very discreetly," Fox says. "And it's done in a most humane way. The deer are killed instantly." In Minnetonka, Belfanz says, the city has employed sharpshooters in the past, but, because of safety concerns arising from the use of high-powered rifles in more densely developed areas, has come to favor trap and kill for most locations.
In Minnesota, nonlethal herd-management methods have been eschewed as either too impractical or too expensive, though they have been tried elsewhere. An experimental birth-control technique, known as immunocontraception, has proved to work, though it is somewhat unwieldy. The method requires that biologists administer the vaccine to does with a barbless dart twice in a month's time, plus an annual booster shot. Try that on a 600-strong herd of suburban-ranging deer.
Another alternative--capturing and then relocating the deer--has drawbacks as well, DonCarlos says. First, of course, there is the issue of expense, which can run upwards of $500 per deer. What's more, trapped deer are susceptible to a fatal condition known as capture myopathy, a stress-related buildup of lactic acid in the muscles which induces a form of paralysis. Studies have shown that captured deer not afflicted with the myopathy often die following relocation anyway. And so, the "management" of suburban deer herds generally emanates from a gun barrel.
In the end, most of the animals wind up on the dinner table. In St. Louis Park, at the Emergency Food Shelf, a distribution hub for a network of 27 local charities, donated venison steaks, chops, and ground meat have come as welcome additions to the pantry, "Oh yeah, people love it," says John Mitchell, the food shelf's warehouse director. "We had about 5,000 pounds of deer meat and it's mostly all gone." Given the problematic relationship between the deer and their suburban neighbors, however, Mitchell can probably expect another shipment soon.

Christian'Dee ft. Angel Haze - H.H.I.D.S
Artist: Christian Deshun
Featuring: Angel Haze
Producer: Christian'Dee
Album: None (Promo Single)
Avg Rating: 3.0 ( 8 votes )
Christian'Dee may be new to our pages, but his Booth debut should sound mighty familiar to veteran hip-hop heads. Freshly-released buzz record H.H.I.D.S. finds the Los Angeles rhymesayer doing double duty on the mic and behind the boards, flipping a low-key sample from Naughty by Nature classic Hip Hop Hooray as he delivers his braggadocious bars. Complete with a hook paraphrased from the Sugar Hill Gang's Rapper's Delight ("Hip-hop and you don't stop…") and a guest verse by buzzmaking femcee Angel Haze, this old school-informed banger isn't attached to a larger project. As always, though, those digging it can stay tuned for all the latest from this promising up-and-comer.

Will relocking my bootloader make a difference? I'm not giving up root, I'll wait and install manually if I have to do that.
This is official OTA update for GSM only. your phone needs to be completely stock to update OTA, if you have a unlocked bootlaoader and rooted then you'll have to wait for a flashable update zip if on a stock rom. if you are on a custom rom then i suppose flash to stock and apply the update and revert back with no root and bootloader for OTA

ISO 9001:2015 is set to replace the existing ISO 9001:2008 standard, which is still required for current ISO certification. A draft of the new standard can be purchased here.
The latest update to ISO 9001 is underway, the first since ISO 9001:2008. But it is really the first major revision since ISO 9001:2000, which essentially consolidated three previous standards including ISO 9001, ISO 9002 and ISO 9003.
While still in the drafting stage (see enclosed time line for publication), this latest revision takes into account the vast changes in technology, business diversity and global commerce (which the ISO 9000 family and its spin-offs were created to support), including:
The update/revision process is also supposed to keep the current focus on managing processes (as opposed to managing more specific program elements) as an effective method to gain a more repeatable pattern of success, and to remain more applicable to a wider array of enterprises. It is doing this to help make this standard revision more durable by "providing a stable core set of requirements for the next 10 years or more" even amid the increasingly changing business situations in which it must operate.
ISO 9001:2015 Planned Implementation ScheduleThe ISO technical committee (ISO/TC 176 Quality management and quality assurance, subcommittee SC 2) has laid out a three-year schedule for implementing the new 9001-2015 standard, a draft of which has already been issued.
While two years away from scheduled publication, initial drafts of the new ISO 9001:2015 standard (a copy of which can be seen here), the emphasis appears to be in these specific areas and concepts from the existing standard:
There are other changes being considered such as replacing the term "product" replaced with "goods and services" and consolidating the previous ISO 9001:2008 standard into seven principles for ISO 9001:2015. The main change is dropping "Principle 5: System approach to management" because it is already a component of having a quality management system (QMS).
Section Changes In ISO 9001:2015
A key section changes of the draft for ISO 9001:2015 concern broadening the scope of quality management to take into account the organization's "context" (for instance social impact).

Section 10:
Until the issues above are finalized into a finished ISO 9001:2015 document, organizations seeking ISO 9000 family certification, will still need to be registered under the existing standard, which will have the normal 3 year period. However, those who are going to recertify after that date are going to be impacted. At this time, the major changes to the standard seem to emanate from the Annex SL (ISO 22301:2012) integrated/multiple standards requirements, so becoming familiar with those will be important, particularly if a business is going for integrated standards certification. The timing of recertification may also be a factor for some organizations, since there could be more effort required to update existing ISO 9001:2008 materials and processes. Organizations whose three year term is nearly up when the new standard is adopted may wish to accelerate their recertification.

The truth is no one can actually help you with your question. Many questions here about strings can only be answered by one person: the user. It's like when someone says "Gosen is great as a cross, but plays poorly as a fullbed." I happen to like Gosen as a fullbed. I don't think it's spectacular by any means, but I string for a guy, who is very much on par with me skill-wise, who does. It's certainly not surprising, however, given its popularity to come across people who don't care for it, who think that those who do are nuts.
It simply depends on the person doing the swinging. The best advice, especially if you string your own, and I get the impression you do, is to make small changes (up or down) until you reach a tension that works for you and your game.

Housing & Lending
Shelter is a basic human need - and homeownership is a basic key to financial viability. Some of the civil rights issues we look at here are predatory lending, fair housing laws, and homelessness.
NFHA and HUD Announce a Media Campaign on Foreclosure Prevention and Predatory Lending
June 9, 2009 - Posted by The Leadership Conference
Yesterday, the Department of Housing and Urban Development and the National Fair Housing Alliance launched a national media campaign that will inform Americans about how to avoid foreclosure and predatory, high-risk loans (PDF), and how to recognize when they might be experiencing housing or rental discrimination.
The campaign will target low-income and minority communities vulnerable to predatory lending and housing discrimination, including families on the brink of or in foreclosure, looking to refinance their homes, facing eviction, renting homes or apartments, or looking to buy a home for the first time.
Congress to Cap Interest Rates on Consumer Loans
June 5, 2009 - Posted by The Leadership Conference
Congress is considering passing a bill that will cap interest rates on consumer loans at 36 percent to prevent lenders from taking advantage of people who rely on these kinds of loans to meet basic needs or to cover unexpected expenses, like car repairs or vital medical procedures, many of whom are minorities and low-income people.
One of the most predatory consumer loans is the payday loan, a short-term loan with high annual interest averaging over 400 percent. Individuals on a limited income take out payday loans and often find that they can't pay back the loan because of the high interest. Often they fall into the debt trap of payday loans by taking out another loan because it is the only way to pay back the first loan, accruing heavy fines in the process.
Payday loan businesses tend to be located in predominantly African-American or Latino neighborhoods. Fifty-five percent of payday loans are taken out by African Americans and Latinos, who together pay over $240 million a year in fees.
A recent Center for Responsible Lending survey found that nearly three in four Americans support a federal cap on consumer loans at 36 percent.
Visit 400 Faces of Payday Lending, Center for Responsible Lending's website devoted to exposing the effects of payday lending on Americans, for more information.
Obama Administration to Coordinate Housing Assistance for Gulf Coast Residents of FEMA Trailers
June 3, 2009 - Posted by The Leadership Conference
The Obama administration said today that it will work with FEMA and the Department of Housing and Urban Development to find permanent housing for displaced victims of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita in the Gulf Coast who still live in hurricane relief trailers. The latest deadline extension for residents to move out of the trailers expired on May 30.
More than 80 percent of people living in the trailers own homes that were damaged by the storms but lack the economic means to finish fixing their properties. Most sought federal and state grants to pay for the repairs necessary to make their homes livable again, but frequent delays and administrative problems left many of them with no option but to stay in their trailers.
Under the administration's plan, $50 million will be distributed by Gulf Coast housing authorities in the form of new housing voucher rental assistance. Residents will get more hands-on assistance with transitioning to permanent housing and also have the option to buy their trailers from FEMA for as little as $1.
New Mortgage Data Shows Recession Hitting Homeowners Hard, Even Those with Good Credit
May 29, 2009 - Posted by Tyler Lewis
New Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) data released yesterday shows that foreclosure rates and delinquency rates, or the rate of people who are at least one payment behind in their mortgages but not in foreclosure, increased in the first three months of 2009, even for homeowners with prime loans.
According to the MBA, there are more prime fixed-rate loans than other types of loans among new foreclosures for the first time since the rise in subprime lending. Generally, only borrowers with good credit qualify for prime loans.
The delinquency rate for homeowners with prime loans increased to a little more than 6 percent. In addition, the percentage of loans in the foreclosure process doubled in the last year. The combined percentage of delinquent loans and loans in foreclosure was about 12 percent, the highest ever recorded by the MBA.
Despite rising delinquency and foreclosure rates, the MBA lobbied aggressively to block an amendment to a foreclosure prevention bill in Congress that would have given bankruptcy judges the ability to rework defaulted home mortgages on family homes to an affordable value.
Without the amendment, the bill that was passed last week will not help as many homeowners as it could have. According to estimates by the Center for Responsible Lending and the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys, the change to bankruptcy law could have prevented up to 1.7 million mortgages from falling into foreclosure.
New Foreclosure Protection for Renters
May 27, 2009 - Posted by The Leadership Conference
You may think that not owning a home will protect you from foreclosure - but an estimated 40 percent of households facing eviction due to foreclosure are renters, not homeowners. Many renters have been evicted from their homes with little or no notice - sometimes with no idea that a foreclosure was pending - after their landlords were unable to pay their mortgages.
But renters now have some protection against eviction under the foreclosure prevention bill signed by President Obama last week. The new law, which took effect immediately, requires the new owners of a property to allow tenants to remain in the home, as long as the tenants pay their rent on time. Renters will be able to stay until the end of their lease, or will get at least 90 days notice if they do not have a lease or if the new owner intends to reside in the home.
Senate Passes Bill That Prohibits Abusive Credit Card Practices

It Costs More to Be Poor
May 18, 2009 - Posted by The Leadership Conference
A payday loan store in Henrico County, VA. Photo credit: Andrew Bain.
Today's Washington Post article, Poor? Pay Up, details how low-income people often end up paying more for basic goods and services - both in money and time - than middle-class people pay for the same items.
For example, in Washington, D.C., where LCCR/EF's office is located, some low-income neighborhoods don't have a supermarket. If you don't have a car, you can either go to a corner store, where you would pay $3.79 for a loaf of wheat bread, or you could take the bus to a supermarket in another part of the city, where you would get that loaf of bread for only $1.19 - but you've wasted hours waiting for and taking the bus to get to the store.
The article also details the problems caused by payday lenders, to whom low-income people often turn if they need money quickly for unplanned expenses such as car repairs, prescriptions, or higher-than-usual utility bills. It's fairly easy to get a short-term loan, but you may end up paying fees and interest that add up to an annual percentage rate of more than 400 percent. In contrast, the average rate for credit cards in the United States is less than 15 percent. Payday lending is currently legal in 37 states.
Report: One in Five Homeowners Are 'Under Water'
May 13, 2009 - Posted by The Leadership Conference
More than one in five homeowners are "under water," or owe more money on their house than it is currently worth, according to a new study by Zillow.com, a real estate research service. Negative equity occurs when the value of a home drops below the value of the homeowner's mortgage. In the past year, average home prices fell 14.9 percent nationwide.
Although historically, negative equity will resolve over time, it can lead to foreclosure when homeowners need to sell or refinance a home in the first few years after a purchase, before they have built up significant ownership equity.
In recent years, many homeowners bought houses with adjustable rate mortgages (ARMs), which offer a low "teaser" interest rate -- and low payments -- for a set period of time, often two to three years. At the end of the initial period, the mortgage then "adjusts" to the market interest rate, which can dramatically increase the monthly payment account.
Homebuyers who took out ARMs during the 2000s were assured by lenders and mortgage brokers that they would be able to sell or refinance their homes before the interest rate was scheduled to adjust, avoiding the increase in monthly payment. However, when housing values dropped, many homeowners discovered they were not eligible to refinance their mortgages because they didn't have enough equity in the home.
Fair Housing Groups Document Spike in Housing Complaints
May 4, 2009 - Posted by Corrine Yu
More than 40 years after the passage of the Fair Housing Act, housing discrimination continues to be a problem, according to the National Fair Housing Alliance's (NFHA) annual report on fair housing enforcement (PDF).
The Fair Housing Act prohibits housing discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status and disability. It covers the sale, rental, and financing of dwellings, as well as housing-related transactions such as advertisements and insurance.
Last year, 30,758 complaints of housing discrimination were filed, a nearly 14 percent increase from the previous year, and the highest number filed in a single year since the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) started keeping track in 1990. NFHA attributed the spike in the number of complaints to the deepening foreclosure crisis, as well as internet ads that violate fair housing laws.
However, the number of complaints filed doesn't reflect the enormity of the problem. HUD estimates that fewer than one percent of housing discrimination occurrences are actually reported.
In the report, NFHA makes recommendations for improving the enforcement of fair housing laws, such as establishing an independent fair housing enforcement agency, enhancing HUD's ability to process complaints more quickly, providing additional funding for private fair housing organizations, and pushing the Justice Department to prosecute more predatory lending cases.
The report comes on the heels of Fair Housing Month, which was established in April to celebrate the anniversary of the passage of the Fair Housing Act on April 11, 1968 and educate Americans about the importance of fair housing enforcement.
Former HUD Secretary Jack Kemp Passes Away
May 4, 2009 - Posted by Tyler Lewis
From left to right: Former HUD Secretaries Henry Cisneros and Jack Kemp at a National Commission on Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity hearing in Chicago in July 2008.
Jack Kemp, former Republican vice presidential candidate and secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), passed away from cancer at his home in Bethesda, Md., on Saturday at the age of 73.
Kemp had a long and distinguished political career, serving in Congress for nine terms and serving as HUD secretary under President George H.W. Bush. He was also an advocate for civil rights, pushing his party to embrace fair and humane immigration reform, D.C. voting rights, and federal investment in low-income housing.
Along with fellow former HUD Secretary Henry Cisneros, Kemp co-chaired the bipartisan National Commission on Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity, created in 2008 by LCCREF, the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, the NAACP Legal Defense & Educational Fund, and the National Fair Housing Alliance. The commission held hearings all over the country to examine the effect that federal enforcement of fair housing laws and the subprime mortgage crisis have had on residential segregation, releasing a report of its findings with recommendations in December 2008.

Re: Please help with game pausing/lag problem
Ok, I have tried these drivers:
- 61.77
- 65.62
- 65.73
- 66.32
Unfortunately none of them made any difference to my problem. Each time I uninstalled the old drivers in "Add Remove Programs" and then went into Safe Mode and ran "Detonator RIP", then installed the new drivers.
One thing I did notice while testing all these drivers is that a couple of times when it froze I heard a beep. I am not sure if it was from the soundcard and speakers or the computer speaker but it definately was not part of CMR 04 and not meant to happen. I don't know if this could help identify the problem?
When I run CMR 04 and the other games I have in the tray:
- ASUS PC Probe
- Logitech iTouch
- A HP Printer icon thing
- Disabled Norton Antivirus icon
- Creative Volume Control
There are other programs running in the background that I can see in the Task Manager, e.g. InCD, but I don't really want to just end the process and stuff something up.
I don't have any programs like Outlook, Winamp, or Messenger running.
Any other ideas about what it could be or what I can try?
EDIT: Head_slinger I just realised we have very similar systems, the biggest difference is the video card. So you aren't having problems anymore?

CAPITAL CULTURE: White House chefs embrace fame
At high-profile state dinners, guests are more likely to remember famous diners they met than the menu, he said. And the White House isn't a hotel or a restaurant; it's about day-to-day family cooking. "I'll submit that how you cook the first lady's oatmeal in the morning has got more to do with how long you'll stay," he said.
In their appearances, White House chefs have stayed on message. "Biggest Loser" contestants got a tasty salad from the White House garden. And for the "Iron Chef" appearance in January, Mrs. Obama unveiled the "secret ingredient" (a staple of the cooking competition) to be anything from that same garden. Comerford and Flay beat chefs Mario Batali and Emeril Lagasse with a vegetable-intensive menu that included a sweet potato dessert.
For his appearance on "Top Chef," Kass helped assess how well contestants did at preparing nutritious and appealing school lunches.
The White House also has enlisted outside chefs to the cause.
In June, more than 500 chefs gathered on the South Lawn of the White House to get involved in the Let's Move campaign by joining the Chefs Move to Schools program, run through the USDA.
Chefs in the program adopt a school in their community and work with teachers, parents and school officials to improve nutrition.
Whether Americans will actually eat better is hard to say, but getting chefs involved around the country is a positive move, said Cowin. "There's nothing like feeling good about something you're doing because you've got support from the leader of the Free World," she said.

Exclusive: How to run a Grand Prix
TG gains unprecedented access for a behind-the-scenes look at the FIA at work at the Brazil 2012 finale
Posted: 19 Feb 2013
The FIA garage is at the bottom end of the pit lane. Inside is the weigh-in equipment for measuring cars and drivers, various monitors, an interlocking network of screens and three substantial aluminium sheds, including a dedicated laboratory for fuel analysis. Eleven full-time FIA officials, most of them race-hardened former team mechanics, move about the place with quasi-military precision, but thankfully they're not quite as intimidating as they look, and there's a brilliantly bone-dry - and mainly British - sense of humour at large.
In total, these guys shift more than 14 tonnes of freight from race to race, the ever-evolving mechanisms with which to police a sport that's hell-bent on staying one step ahead of the rule-makers. What the FIA garage doesn't provide, however, is a toilet, something I find myself unexpectedly explaining to 2013 McLaren signing Sergio Pérez who has just legged it up from the grid in a clear state of pre-race urinary distress. Then we do the same for Vergne, Hülkenberg, Maldonado and Rosberg. So that's what they do...

Just bought house with peeling solid stain, best way to fix?
I just bought a house built in 1987 with cedar siding. It is a contemporary style home with a solid grey staing that is peeling.
1)What is the best way to prep this? I have been told I cant get the peeling stain off with a pressure washer on avery low setting? But I have also read this can damage the wood.
2)I want to apply semi solid or solid stain roughly the same color without it peeling in the future. I figured I will test a section with semi solid and see if it looks OK. If not I will go with a solid stain. What is my best choice(brand also Oil vs Acrylic)?
3)Should I use a mildew cleaner ahead of time?
Thanks in advance

Next stop is Duchess Mews, the site where the 1960s spy TV series The Avengers was filmed. Brian Clemens the script writer, and editor of the series tells us why, when you need all the discretion of a British spy, a mews is the perfect place.
At Broadcasting House, the BBC's home to radio, Glancey accosts radio producers on their way in to work to ask if they have ever looked up to notice the 1931 Eric Gill statue of Prospero and Ariel above the doorway. Plus we hear why an angry Director General ordered it to be altered.
We make our way to All Saints on St Margaret street where Jonathan talks to Father Alan Moses about about the explosion of colour, flowers and statues that fill William Butterfield's high Gothic building.
Plunged back into the consumer chaos, we cross Oxford street to make our way to the art deco extravaganza of the London Palladium on Argyll Street, built by the New York skyscraper architect Raymond Hood in 1928.
We cross Regents Street to Hanover Square to visit the centre of the British Fashion Industry, Vogue House, and talk to Dolly Jones editor of vogue.com about why their building's location perfectly suits their interests in both the high street fashion of Oxford Street and the haute coutoure of Bond Street, between which they sit.
We end our walk at John Lewis to look up at Barbara Hepworth's Winged Figure on the outside wall of the department store.

When Jackie Stewart first came up with suggestions to make Formula One safer, many scoffed at him. They said his suggestions would remove the romance from the sport; that the safety measures would take away the excitement from F-1. "They said I had no guts," said the F-1 legend and a three-time World champion from Britain a few decades ago.
Formula One is probably a hundred times safer than what it was when the first race was run in Silverstone (England) in 1950. The cars then were purely designed for speed, with front engines and drum brakes, but they ran without medical back-up or any form of safety net.
But despite many rule changes, motorsport continues to be the most dangerous sport in the world. The recent death of English driver Dan Wheldon after a horrific crash in the IndyCar World championship's final race in the U.S. and the celebrated Italian rider Marco Simoncelli's death on Sunday, after a horror crash that saw the Malaysian MotoGP at Sepang cancelled, are the latest disasters to hit the sport.
Stewart himself witnessed 11 driver deaths in F-1 racing during his eight years on the circuit, between 1965 and 1973. But the fact that the last fatal accident in F-1 — which claimed its biggest star Ayrton Senna — happened 17 years ago at the San Marino Grand Prix in 1994, is proof of how much the world body, FIA, and Formula One have done to make the sport safer.
Stewart, who had a brush with death at the 1966 Belgian Grand Prix and who had lost a few of his close friends in other racing accidents, has played a big role in improving safety in F-1. The current F-1 boss Bernie Ecclestone, who was the Brabham team owner in the mid-1970s, also used his growing influence to demand improvements in safety at the various circuits and he hired Prof. Sid Watkins to oversee the safety improvement programme.
In the early days, even fatal crashes were almost accepted as part of a Grand Prix weekend. There were 11 driver fatalities in the 1950s and an equal number the following decade. The first safety measures in F-1 were introduced in 1960 — a full decade after the World championship came into being. Roll-over bars and flag signals along with improvements in fuel tank construction to prevent vehicle fire were the major additions.
Out in five seconds!
FIA assumed responsibility for safety at racing circuits in 1963 and drivers were required to wear fireproof suits and unbreakable full-visor helmets. Cockpits were also restructured to allow drivers to get out more quickly, in about five seconds.
FIA introduced circuit inspections before races in the 1970s as well as double crash barriers, a safety distance of three metres between fences and spectators and a six-point code of conduct for all drivers.
In 1978, only drivers with an FIA super licence were allowed to enter Formula One, and a little later, a stricter process followed.
Helicopters on stand-by were made mandatory in 1986 and crash tests for the car's safety cell and fuel tank were brought in, in 1988. The height of track safety walls was also raised to one metre and the pit wall to a minimum of 1.35m. Detachable steering wheels became mandatory in 1990 and two years later came the F-1 official safety car and stricter crash tests. Dope tests were also introduced.
Major overhaul
Following the death of Ayrton Senna in 1994, more safety measures were put in place like extra protection for drivers' heads and cutting down the power output of the engines.
Ten years ago, FIA introduced a rule that made it necessary for a driver to allow a vehicle to pass when a blue flag is shown for the third time. Time penalties (stop-and-go) for drivers who trigger a false start, cause an accident or collision or force another driver off the track were brought in. Time penalties were also handed for exceeding the speed limit in the pit lane.
In 2003, many circuits, including Silverstone, Nurburgring, Magny-Cours, Budapest and Suzuka underwent changes to make them safer. That same year, HANS (Head and Neck Support System) that reduces the risk of neck and skull fractures which were the biggest cause of death in racing accidents was made mandatory.
This year, to reduce the speed of F-1 cars and to facilitate overtaking, the double diffusers, used since 2009, and the F-ducts, developed in 2010, were banned. This meant a significant reduction in the down force.

Murray is 19, currently ranked 36. He certainly isn't a sure thing like those players.
Gilbert reminds me of Phil Jackson, someone who steps into a perfect situation & ends up looking like a genius when his players do what they are supposed to do. Now we'll see just how good of a coach he really is.
Agassi was on a downward spiral when he hooked up with Gilbert. Ranked 32 and his results were very inconsistent. Gilbert stabilised his results. Same with Roddick. He was ranked 10 I think. Had just lost in the first round of the French and had a poor record on grass coming into that season. Amazingly he won at Queens beating Agassi for the first time and reached Wimby semi's losing to Federer. Thats a big improvement!
I agree though, that Roddick and Agassi had already had a few accomplishments. Murray's best result is probably his victory in San Jose. Interesting to see what magic BG can do with him. Perhaps none, but it should be interesting nonetheless.

2006 Mercedes-Benz E500 4MATIC Problem Reports
Most Reported 2006 Mercedes-Benz E500 4MATIC Problem Reports
The relay which turns the airmatic suspension pump on may fail causing the pump to run continuously. This can result in failure of the pump motor or a dead battery as the pump motor will continue to run after the car is turned off. Also, Worn airmatic pump mount bushings can causes noises in the front axle while driving on bumpy roads or a buzzing noise while the pump is running.
Rear air springs (bellows) may develop leaks, which causes the air pump to run more often to maintain ride height. Our technicians recommend that leaking air springs be replaced.
A failed digital heater control valve can cause a lack of heat output from the climate control system.
The electrical connector at the automatic transmission may leak fluid into the wiring harness. If not repaired, the oil will migrate through the wiring harness and damage the transmission control module. A new harness and control module may be necessary to correct this problem.
The ESP and BAS warning lights may illuminate due to a failed brake light switch. Replacement of the failed switch should correct this concern.
The crankshaft position sensor may fail. Symptoms of this are: The engine will crank—but not start—especially when the engine is warm. The car may start again if it is left to cool off, but it may run roughly or have poor performance. Communicating these specific symptoms to your technician can save diagnostic time.
Lack of audio or cell phone functionality may be related to the failure of the audio gateway module.
Water can damage the weight sensor in the front, passenger seat, causing the SRS (airbag) light to illuminate. There is an electrical component in the seat cushion susceptible to fluid damage. Any spills should be dried up immediately in order to try and prevent damage to the sensor.
It is not uncommon to encounter premature failure of the anti-lock brake system (ABS) modulator assembly due to dirty brake fluid. Our technicians recommend flushing the brake fluid every two years in order to help prevent this problem.
The release tab for the center console can fall off unexpectedly.
An engine oil leak may develop from the oil level sensor. Replacement of the leaking sensor will commonly correct this concern.
Irregular and premature tire wear can be caused by the front thrust link bushings cracking and causing excessive movement in the suspension. The thrust link bushings are fluid-filled (to help reduce vibration), so if they crack, they will leak oil.
An engine Oil leak may develop from the PCV vent housing on the valve cover and/or the inspection plate on the front of the engine.
Catalytic converter failure is common and may cause a Check Engine Light to illuminate.

By lowering the expression of a single gene, researchers at the National Institutes of Health have extended the average lifespan of a group of mice by about 20 percent -- the equivalent of raising the average human lifespan by 16 years, from 79 to 95. The research team targeted a gene called mTOR, which is involved in metabolism and energy balance, and may be connected with the increased lifespan associated with caloric restriction.

For a man who sold well over 25 million records in his lifetime, won eight Grammy Awards and functioned as R&B's chairman of the board for the better part of two decades, Luther Vandross goes strangely undermentioned today as a giant of urban music.
Yet the star, who died in 2005 at age 54 and is only now receiving his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, represented the vanguard of R&B during a time when it was relatively absent from the mainstream pop music conversation, erecting an indelible bridge between the great soul troubadours or disco mavens of the '70s and the crossover-friendly R&B divas of the present day.
Thanks to his seemingly effortless talent, Vandross experienced a lengthy career in music long before he cut his first record. In addition to work as a producer and a flourishing side career as a singer of radio and TV jingles, Vandross was nearly omnipresent in the late '70s as a backing singer. Ironically, considering his initial lack of pop crossover appeal as a solo artist, Vandross was particularly adept at straddling genres, appearing on albums by Chic, Carly Simon, Barbra Streisand, Bette Midler, Quincy Jones, Sister Sledge and Average White Band. A featured spotlight on David Bowie's "Young Americans" even led to a supporting slot with the Thin White Duke on tour.
In advance of his 1981 solo debut "Never Too Much," Vandross hooked up with former high school classmate (and nephew of jazz legend Cannonball Adderley) Nat Adderley Jr. and jazz bassist Miller, who also worked frequently with Miles Davis throughout the decade. The three would be inseparable collaborators for the rest of Vandross' career, racking up seven straight R&B No. 1 albums in 1981-91, and finally notching a Billboard No. 1 in 2003 with "Dance With My Father."
By the mid-1980s, just as Vandross' star was cresting, R&B was suffering from an acute dearth of male stars: Marvin Gaye had been shot dead, Al Green was focused on his ministry and abstained from secular music, Barry White had begun a period of commercial decline and Stevie Wonder's golden era had ended. Vandross somehow managed to fill that void by taking a sharp turn away from his male predecessors, boasting a heart-on-sleeve femininity and a willingness to let his voice crack into weepy whispers and almost kitschy overflows of emotion, providing an unsung blueprint for the uber-sensitive likes of Maxwell and D'Angelo who followed his lead in the 1990s and beyond.
"I love Stevie Wonder and I love Teddy Pendergrass and I love Donny Hathaway and Tony Bennett for that matter," Vandross said in a 1982 interview, "but they were not the ones to arouse my musical libido. It was those nights with the earphones listening to Aretha (Franklin) sing 'Ain't No Way' and listening to Dionne Warwick sing 'People' and listening to Diana Ross sing 'Reflections.' It was those nights that just knocked me down. I emulated these people. And as a result of having a lot of female singers as my idols, my sensitivity level is much different than a lot of other guys singing."

One story not yet on the list merits some kind of special mention, though I can't decide if it's a true GunFail or not. In a 9-on-1 shootout between 10 cops (yes, cops on all sides, the bad guy here being an off-duty cop suspected of domestic violence), nobody was seriously hurt. That's a good thing, but a GunFail of a different sort. It's one you should think about next time someone tells you they're going to take out a shooter.
