2007 UNT Preview
What you need to know: After two years and with moderate
success, the offense finally has the pieces (for the most part)
brought in by head coach Todd Dodge to run the offense the way
he wants to. The line gets back all five starters along with G/C
Kelvin Drake, the team's best lineman who missed all of last
year hurt, while the backfield has three good runners in Cam
Montgomery, Lance Dunbar, and Micah Mosley. But the offense is
supposed to revolve around the passing game, and while it has
had its moments over the last two years, it's been wildly
inconsistent and inefficient. Riley Dodge, the coach's son and
one-time superstar recruit, has to live up to the promise at
quarterback, and the three newcomers at receiver, Oklahoma
transfer Tyler Stradford and JUCO transfers Jamaal Jackson and
Michael Outlaw, have to be fantastic right away. There will be
bumps in the road and there will be problems early on, but
eventually the light will go on and the offense should explode.
Patience, even after two years under Dodge, will remain a key
Passing: Nathan Tune
6-13, 55 yds
Rushing: Cam Montgomery
170 carries, 928 yds, 9 TD
Receiving: Alex Lott
26 catches, 201 yds, 2 TD
Star of the offense:
Redshirt freshman QB Riley Dodge
Player who has to step up and become a star: Dodge
Unsung star on the rise: Sophomore G Coleman Feeley
Best pro prospect: Junior C Kelvin Drake
Top three all-star candidates: 1) Dodge, 2) RB Cam
3) Drake
Strength of the offense: Line experience, running back
Weakness of the offense:
Passing game production,
receiver experience
Projected Starter:
Alright hot shot, let's see what you can do. Riley Dodge
was one of the biggest recruits to ever sign with North Texas
after throwing for 3,445 yards and 39 touchdowns in his senior
year at Southlake High in Texas (the same school as former
Missouri star Chase Daniel). He also ran for 772 yards and 13
scores on his way to Gatorade Player of the Year honors in 2007,
after winning the award in 2006. It helped that his dad is
the UNT head man, Todd Dodge, considering that Riley could've
gone just about anywhere. He spent last year getting a little
time at receiver, catching nine passes for 59 yards, and going
0-for-2 under center with an interception, before getting
knocked out for the year. On the plus side, he took a medical
redshirt and will likely be the starter for the next four years.
The bad news is that he was average this spring and wasn't
consistent. At 6-0 and 182 pounds he's not all that big, but he
has a good enough arm and he can move.
Projected Top Reserves: Junior Nathan Tune
has been a part of the program long enough to know what
he's doing. The 6-4, 203-pound junior saw time in six games
completing 6-of-13 passes for 55 yards while running for 25
more. He's a big passer with enough mobility to take off and run
at any time. He knows the offense.
5-11, 202-pound redshirt freshman Chase Blaine
is the third man in the mix but won't be getting a shot for the
starting job. he's the emergency option, and while he's not all
that big, he has a live arm and can move as well as Dodge or
Watch Out For ... Tune to
see action. It's Dodge's job and he's not going to lose it after
a bad outing or two, but he hasn't been good enough to be simply
handed the full-time job for the entire season based on family
ties. Todd Dodge needs to win to keep his job, which means Tune,
who might be a bit more polished, could see action in a pinch.
Strength: Mobility. The idea of the offense is to
get the passing game moving, but the quarterbacks play a big
part in the running game, too. All three options can run well.
Production. Can Riley Dodge actually play? He has all the
basics, but he's still just a redshirt freshman who'll need lots
of time to figure out what he's doing. He wasn't all that great
in practices against the mediocre Mean Green defense; what's he
going to do once the bullets start flying?
Outlook: Giovanni Vizza was a two-year starter who
wasn't all that bad and didn't get a whole bunch of help behind
a porous offensive line. He could handle that fine, but the
writing was on the wall: Riley Dodge was going to be the
starting quarterback as long as his dad was the head coach.
Vizza transferred to Texas A&M, and now it's sink-or-swim time
for both Dodges. The passing game will put up numbers because
the team will be in comeback mode, but it needs to be more
efficient. It probably won't be early on.
Rating: 5.5
Running Backs
Projected Starter:
Senior Cam Montgomery
stepped in from the JUCO ranks two years ago and struggled to
stay healthy, and then he came up with a breakthrough season
carrying the offense with a steady 928 yards and nine touchdowns
highlighted by a 121-yard, two touchdown day against Arkansas
State to close things out. A good enough recruit to be courted
by Illinois and Boise State, he has a nice blend of 6-1,
210-pound size and excellent speed. Now he has to prove he can
stay healthy again after taking a medical redshirt two years ago
with a hamstring problem.
Projected Top Reserves: Junior Micah
Mosley was supposed to be the main man last year but
was knocked out early on with a shoulder injury after running
for just 102 yards and a score in his limited role five games
into the season. He's a 6-0, 210-pound veteran with good
quickness and the vision to hit the hole in a hurry and average
close to five yards per game.
The No. 2 back until Mosley is healthy is Lance Dunbar,
a speedy 5-9, 189-pound sophomore who finished second on the
team with 928 yards with a score in five games before suffering
a season-ending injury. He's back and ready to roll, and now he
could fill more of a receiving role after catching 12 passes for
51 yards and a score.
Watch Out For ... more from the running game. There's
talk of this being the most talented backfield UNT has ever had,
and that includes the big-production days of Patrick Cobbs and
Jamario Thomas. While this group isn't quite that good, it's
talented enough to be used more and more.
Strength: Combinations of speed and size. Mosley
and Montgomery aren't the typical small, quick backs offenses
like UNT's likes to use. These two can run inside and out, while
Dunbar is a speedster who can crank out big runs with a little
space to move.
Weakness: Health. Mosley is coming off a shoulder problem,
Dunbar is coming off an injury, and Montgomery is hardly a
sure-thing after missing 2007 with a hamstring problem.
Outlook: There's a nice mix of talents with the
return of Micah Mosley to go along with the near-1,000-yard
rushing of Cam Montgomery. With the passing game so inefficient
and such a concern, more will come from the running game with
the three options all to get plenty of work.
Rating: 5.5
Projected Starters:
With all the turnover in the receiving
corps and with all the new faces needing to learn the system,
it'll be up to sophomore Sam Roberson to be a
steadying force. The 6-4, 217-pounder played last year on the
outside, making 12 catches for 76 yards, to the inside. The star
high school defensive back is big and physical, but he was more
of a possession target in his first season.
JUCO transfer Jamaal Jackson is a 6-1,
172-pound inside target with tremendous quickness and speed. The
junior caught 41 passes for 418 yards with a touchdown for
Southwest Mississippi CC, but he has the 4.4 speed to do far
more with an expanded role in a passing attack.
5-11, 190-pound junior Michael Outlaw, like
Jackson, stepped in from the JUCO ranks to a starting spot after
catching 46 passes for 624 yards for East Mississippi CC. While
he's not fast, he's a good football player who fights for the
ball and can make deep plays on the outside.
6-2, 175-pound redshirt freshman Tyler Stradford
started out his career at Oklahoma before transferring
to UNT. A tremendous athlete with great leaping ability and as
much talent as any receiver the Mean Green has had in years, he
should be a major playmaker on the outside.
Projected Top Reserves: When the offense uses a
tight end, and it's not going to be often, it'll be up to senior
Bryant Seidle to take over. He didn't catch a
pass last season, spending last year on special teams and as a
backup linebacker making four tackles. The 6-2, 221-pounder will
be used as a blocker.
Fighting for playing time will be
Alex Lott, a 5-9, 165-pound junior who started in four
games and will see time on the inside. He was third on the team
with 26 catches for 201 yards and two scores, and while he's
extremely quick, he didn't do much with the ball in his hands.
Trying to fight his way though the logjam of targets is
Kevin Dickerson, a 5-10, 190-pound senior who made 21
catches for 180 yards with an 18-yard touchdown catch against
Western Kentucky. He'll have to battle for playing time on the
inside, but with his experience he'll see action in four wide
With tremendous speed, sophomore B.J. Lewis
will see time on the outside after missing most of last year
hurt. He saw a little time in three games and didn't catch a
pass, but with 6-1, 195-pound size and excellent deep speed,
he'll be used on the outside in a rotation with Tyler Stradford.
Watch Out For ... all the new guys. The coaching
staff wanted new blood and new starters to make the passing game
shine, and Outlaw, Jackson, and especially Stradford will be the
new stars of the attack. At least that's the hope.
Strength: The system. There will be plenty of
passes flying around and plenty of chances for all the targets
to see work their way. The offense spreads the ball around, so
if you're a receiver and you can find the seams and if you can
handle single coverage, you'll produce.
Casey Fitzgerald. All he did was catch 113 passes for 1,119
yards and six scores last year and 225 passes over the last two
seasons. There's no real experience in this year's corps, and
there's no clear-cut No. 1 guy to take Fitzgerald's place.
Outlook: Casey Fitzgerald might be gone, but the
receiving corps is better with an upgrade over the last six
months. Todd Dodge and the coaching staff went out and got guys
to fit the high-octane attack with Oklahoma transfer Tyler
Stradford a potential star on the outside and JUCO transfers
Michael Outlaw and Jamaal Jackson brought in to produce
immediately. It might take a little while for everyone to get on
the same page, but the corps should turn out to be better.
Rating: 5.5
Offensive Linemen
Projected Starters:
While not listed as a starter, there will be a spot
either at center or guard for Kelvin Drake, a 6-2, 302-pound
junior who missed last year with an ankle problem but was a second-team
All-Sun Belt performer in 2007. He's a good run blocker and can do a
little of everything well on the inside including making the snap in the
shotgun formation. His versatility will be a key to the line.
With Drake out, J.J. Johnson was decent at center
starting in every game and looking like a possible starter for another
three years. Not all that big at 6-2 and 280 pounds, the sophomore is
good on the move and blocks bigger than his size.A fixture at
tackle for the last few years has been Esteban Santiago,
a starter in every game at left tackle last season and a likely right
tackle to start out this year. One of the team's best pass blockers, the
6-3, 285-pound junior is a former defensive lineman who has the
toughness to play guard if needed but has been solid on the outside.
Working on the left side will be Victor Gill, a
6-4, 250-pound junior who moved over from tight end to tackle and bulked
up to be able to handle the job for an entire season. He can play either
side, starting every game at right tackle last season, and doing a
decent job against speed rushers.6-4, 318-pound sophomore
Coleman Feeley stepped in and started the final seven
games at right guard and should be a fixture for the next three years.
He's a pounding run blocker and a decent athlete for his size, and with
a little more consistency, he should be a key anchor.
Projected Top Reserves: Senior Gabe
Hollivay went from JUCO transfer to starter at left guard after
the dominoes fell from the Kelvin Drake injury. the 6-3, 360-pounder is
too big, but he's good. One of the highest ranked recruits the team has
brought in over the last several years, he can play either guard spot
and could end up starting if Drake takes over the starting center job.
Former JUCO transfer Nate
Jenkins was supposed to play a key role last year after serving as
the anchor of the 2007 national champion, Pearl River CC, but he
spent the year learning on the fly. Unfortunately, he got
bigger. A LOT bigger, and now he's 6-3 and 378 pounds making him
a guard instead of a tackle, which he was originally projected
to be.
6-3, 305-pound senior Matt Menard started 11
games at tackle two years ago and spent last season as a key
backup. Now he'll work behind Victor Gill at left tackle
bringing more size at 6-3 and 305 pounds. The former defensive
lineman is a good run blocker, but he's suspect in pass
Watch Out For ... Drake.
It'll be hard to crack the line that was becoming cohesive as
last year went on, but now that he's healthy, Drake could be the
best player for the front five.
Strength: Experience. The Mean Green not only have
four returning starters play every game, but had a fifth, Feeley,
who started the final six games. Add Drake to the equation and
the line is as good as it's been in years.
Weakness: Doing any one thing consistently well. The pass
protection was decent, considering there were 514 pass attempts,
but it wasn't as good as it needed to be. This wasn't a dominant
run blocking line, either.
Outlook: After a disastrous 2007, the line turned
out to be fine with the addition of some key JUCO transfers and
the emergence of a few good young players. Now with Kelvin Drake
back at either center or guard, the line is loaded with
experience and should be a strength with a little more time.

text: The Pan wiki last edited by KillerZ on 05/06/13 06:42AM View full history Pan is an ancient Greek God, primarily worshiped in Arcadia. Arcadia was a region inhabited by mountain people who the other Greeks mostly disdained as primitive. He is a "god of shepherds and flocks, of mountain wilds, hunting and rustic music." His hindquarters, legs, and horns of a goat give him a similar form to the satyrs or Greek myth and fauns of the Roman ones. Christians are believed to have adopted his appearance for their own Satan, a figure originating in the Bible but receiving no physical description in it.The genealogy of Pan is inconsistent in the various ancient sources. He is said variously to be a son of Kronos (Cronos, Saturn), Zeus, Hermes and Dionysus. His mother was a nymph but her name is variously given as Dryope or Penelope. An attempt to identify the later with Penelope of Sparta, Odysseus' wife, is inconsistent with other depictions of her. Pindar, a 5th century BC poet, depicts Pan as a guardian of the Great Godddess (Cybele). Hellenistic sources from two or three centuries after that connect him with the cult of Eros. He is said to have gifted Artemis with her first hunting dogs and mentored Apollo in the art of prophecy. Indicating he was older than either of these two Olympians.Pan's best known power is his ability to manipulate the emotions of others through his music, playing the Syrinx (an ancient form of flute or pipes). He could arouse inspiration, courage or sexual desire in those he favored. Or instill fear to the hearts of his enemies , forcing them to disorderly glee a battlefield. This blind fear was known as Panic, making Pan the origin of the word. Pan was a lusty god who pursued, successfully or not, nymphs, human maidens and shepherds. He is said to have slept with every one of Dionysus' Maenads (female followers) and even with the second-generation Titan Selene (Moon Goddess).Plutarch (c 46 -120 AD), a priest of Apollo and historical writer, relates a legend of the death of Pan being announced. Making Pan the only deceased Olympian. However the worship of Pan continued following the death of Plutarch himself. This might indicate Plutarch was reporting about a cult which had Pan dying and being reborn annually, like Osiris and Dionysus. Pan was identified with Satan throughout and following the Middle Ages. In the 18th century, a revival of interest in paganism and unconventional sexuality led to a revival of Pan who was used as a symbol of both. Between 1890 and 1926, Pan made numerous appearances in literature, everywhere from occult texts and horror stories to children's books and poetry. "The God of the Witches" (1933) by Margaret Murray depicted Pan as part of the archetype of the Horned God supposedly worshiped by witches since ancient times. Through this influential books, Pan became an important figure in Neopaganism and Wicca.

Ferrari to challenge Christmas

The Ferrari F1 team has announced that it is evaluating whether to launch an official protest against Christmas.
Last December we became aware that a man travelled the world giving gifts to children whilst wearing a suit that made unauthorised use of the signature red and white Ferrari colours, said Maranello spokesman Paul Oozer. Since then we have been carefully examining footage of this Christmas event and, although we did not mention it at the time, we now believe we have a case against the gentleman who infringed our copyright, Mr Claus, which we can string out in an over-dramatic and pathetically childish way.
If the Italian team decides to go ahead with its action against Father Christmas, it could have dire consequences for the jocular Laplanders usual present distribution routine and indeed for Christmas itself. However, Ferrari believe they have a solution to this potential seasonal crisis; As the rightful users of the red and white colour scheme, we would take over the whole Christmas event, said a spokesman. Fernando Alonso has the pace to deliver presents all over the world in just one night and Felipe Massa looks like an elf. Plus, the 2012 car was basically a bit of a turkey.
As for the actual presents to be delivered to youngsters across the globe, Ferrari claim they would have a solution to that too. What child would not want to receive a Ferrari-branded golfing glove or Ferrari-branded ice scraper? their spokesman asked. Although of course in return the child would owe us 390 and 735 Euros respectively.
Whilst Ferrari continue to deliberate on their next move, others are less than impressed with their potential plan to ruin Christmas. For fucks sake, cant they just drop it and move on, said the rest of the world, yesterday.

Created by Wieden+Kennedy Amsterdam, the ad features Rooney, Real Madrid's Karim Benzema and Juventus' Giorgio Chiellini, competing against each other on a giant screen.
The ad aims to show how individuals can connect with friends online to play the game.
The two-minute ad was showcased on Fifa's Facebook fan page on Friday. It was screened on TV during Sunday's Sky Sports 1's Premier League match between Manchester Utd and Liverpool. The campaign will also run in print.
Edu Pou, Wieden+Kennedy Amsterdam creative director, said: "Fifa 11 is top professional football played by fans. You can't get better than this. Our campaign celebrates this ultimate experience, reflecting how teams of gamers add their personalities to the game and enjoy the healthy competition against their friends. With Fifa 11 football goes to 11."
Last month EA signed David Beckham as brand ambassador for EA Sports Active 2, a line of interactive fitness products.

This actually makes you go faster, by whipping you as you ride.
This tire is somewhat worn.
Ok, on some bikes you can get away with this, buuuut...
Some people attach their seatbags in very unorthodox ways.
Like I was saying just now... but you have to give them credit for using the Seat Cleat to mount a taillight.
This is the most common variant of "I Did It My Way" seatbag attachment.
And some people don't clean their drivetrain very often! They probably don't even know that their cat doesn't naturally have black stripes.
Nails. They're awesome.
They can also serve as seatpost shims.

text: The Excite wiki last edited by ReverendHunt on 08/06/13 01:41PM View full history OverviewExcite is a franchise consisting of several racing games published by Nintendo. Most of the games in the franchise have huge jumps, dirt tracks, and overheating engines. The series began in 1984 with Excitebike on the NES, and has since continued with several more games, the latest being Excitebike World Rally.ExcitebikeExcitebikeThe first game in the franchise, Excitebike, was released for the NES, NEC PC-8801, arcade, Game Boy Advance, and Virtual Console. The game was developed by Nintendo R&D1 and published by Nintendo. It introduced many of the series' features. Using the D-pad, players must make the bike land correctly, if the bike boosts too much then it overheats, and there are several large jumps. Excitebike also had a track creation system.BS Excitebike Bun Bun Mario StadiumA downloadable version of Excitebike with Mario characters was released on the Super Famicom satellite add-on, the Satellaview. BS Excitebike Bun Bun Mario Stadium is essentially a remake of Excitebike, with a few new features. Now, there are Mario characters: Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Wario, Toad, Yoshi, and Koopa Troopas. Also, a super mode has been implemented that allows the player to have unlimited turbo.Excitebike 64Excitebike 64Excitebike 64 was released in 2000 by Nintendo, and developed by Left Field Productions. Excitebike 64 was well-received by critics and fans alike. Excitebike 64 is in 3D, and features six different riders. The game is controlled using the analog stick or D-pad to control movement, A for acceleration, B for brake, R to slide, and a boost activated by Z. The game has 20 tracks in the single-player mode, but more can be unlocked by playing the game. Excitebike 64 also features a track creation mode.Excite TruckExcite TruckExcite Truck was released in 2006 by Nintendo, and developed by Monster Games. It was a launch title for the Nintendo Wii. It introduced many new aspects for the franchise, such as the omission of bikes. Excite Truck featured a "star" system, in which players collected stars to win the race, rather than merely placing first. The game is controlled by holding the Wii Remote sideways, like a steering wheel. Excite Truck is the first Excite game to not have at track creation mode.Excitebots: Trick RacingExcitebotsExcitebots: Trick Racing was released by Nintendo, and developed by Monster Games. It was released in 2009 for the Nintendo Wii. Excitebots features transforming robotic "animal" vehicles.

The game has Nintendo WiFi capabilities with up to six players.

Lakers still looking for deals after Paul debacle
"Although it's not a team that we would have normally picked ... we've done trades like that," Kupchak said. "We're not afraid of doing trades within our division. We look after our team first, and then if you meet that team down the road, hopefully you're going to win that game."
Kupchak realizes his opinion isn't universally accepted. Kobe Bryant still is dismayed by the deal, and he believes Kupchak acted too hastily.
"If (Odom) had stayed, if they hadn't traded him, he would have got over it," Bryant said. "No question about it. ... It definitely seemed like an emotional decision. Lamar is an emotional person, and it means a lot to him to be here. He thought he'd be here forever, and it hurt him. That's something that he wanted. He wanted to go somewhere else. He's secure in that decision, and I support him in that decision."
Kupchak disagrees, saying Odom and his agent specifically shot down that notion. Although Bryant disagrees with Kupchak's moves, he remains on strong terms with the general manager, noting he had been proven wrong when he questioned Kupchak's vision while demanding a trade in May 2007.
"And then Mitch traded Kwame (Brown) for Pau, so he's earned the license to do whatever he wants," Bryant said. "He knows what he's doing. He's built a championship team. He's done it before."
Kupchak reiterated he's still pursuing major trades with several teams, but doesn't see anything immediately available. Orlando center Dwight Howard's agent was given permission to speak to the Lakers and two other teams after Howard requested a trade, but the All-Star appears to be waffling on his desire.
If Howard isn't available, Kupchak is content to add only supplementary players to his current core, notably looking for big-man depth to replace Odom.
"We think we have three of the best players in the NBA - Andrew (Bynum), Pau and Kobe," Kupchak said. "We expect to have them all season, yes."

40 year old man | Redmond, WA, USA | Seeking women 27-37 within 300 miles of Woodinville, WA
Good Guy 4 You
I live a simple, casual life in Woodinville - trees and wildlife abound. Looking for my matching puzzle piece... a person with the potential to be a best friend, lover, and life partner. Intellectual curiosity is inspiring, finding humor in everyday situations keeps us young, a little nerdy / geeky makes me smile, enjoying the outdoors / nature lifts the spirit, authentic is appreciated, and smiling often lightens the day. For fun... visiting family / friends, exploring new places, hiking, camping, going to parks or festivals, board games, doing something active, and, at times, just being a homebody is nice. Prior to teaching (gourmet foods, personal finance, psychology, business / marketing), I wandered through the world of business - management, organization development, human resource management, training, and even managed a group home for high-need developmentally disabled adults. Lived in several towns in eastern WA, and hope to go back there (or similar) someday... it's nice to have sun! Random things: last hike was to Cherry Creek Falls, enjoy volleyball and ultimate Frisbee on occasion, love woodstoves in winter (have 2), make my cats' food, brewed award-winning beer, coached soccer, taught drivers ed., kicked-out of Belfast while during 'the troubles' (overly brazen tourist :), turned down a $1,500/day consulting job when I was unemployed, and have never had a cell phone. I know, it's a wonder I've managed to live as long as I have! ;)
Camping , Cooking , Fishing/Hunting , Gardening/Landscaping , Hobbies and crafts , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Playing cards , Playing sports , Travel/Sightseeing , Video games
Bowling, Other types of exercise, Tennis / Racquet sports, VolleyBall, Walking / Hiking, Yoga
I exercise 1-2 times per week.
I have Cats, Fish
Boots and Inkspell are a bonded pair of 3 year-old kittens - a mighty pair of predators. Flies and moths beware!
West Seattle (family), eastern WA (sun!), the Cascades (hiking, exploring wilderness), a certain beach at Cabo Plumo (favorite vacation so far), and enjoy spending time at home, just appreciating where I live - it's like a vacation at times
a warm latte in the morning, woodstove on cold nights, exploring new places, trying new things, sitting on the bottom of the tub after a shower to take a hot steam in the morning, wool socks, Boots & Inkspell, learning about new interests.
Time outdoors, indulge my id, putz around / enjoy my property, visit friends / family, be a good uncle to my niece/nephews, board games, photography, landscaping, enjoy area song birds, hike, fly fish, and taking care of things important to me.
The Crying Games, A Walk in The Woods, Think Like a Cat, The Bartimaeus Trilogy, and various internet articles for random curiosities.

Dr. Rajiv Shah led the efforts of nearly 10,000 staff in more than 70 countries around the world to advance USAID's mission of ending extreme poverty and promoting resilient, democratic societies.
Under Dr. Shah's leadership, USAID applied innovative technologies and engaged the private sector to solve the world's most intractable development challenges. This new model of development brings together an increasingly diverse community—from large companies to local civil society groups to communities of faith—to deliver meaningful results.
Dr. Shah led President Obama's landmark Feed the Future and Power Africa initiatives and has refocused America's global health partnerships to end preventable child death. Feed the Future, alone, has improved nutrition for 12 million children and empowered more than 7 million farmers with climate-smart tools they need to grow their way out of extreme poverty. In April 2014, USAID launched the U.S. Global Development Lab to harness the expertise of the world's brightest scientists, students, and entrepreneurs. At the same time, the newly formed Private Capital Group for Development forges a more strategic relationship between private capital and development.
Dr. Shah also managed the U.S. Government's humanitarian response to catastrophic crises around the world, from the devastating 2010 Haiti earthquake to Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines to the Ebola epidemic in West Africa.
Through an extensive set of reforms called "USAID Forward," Dr. Shah worked with the United States Congress to transform USAID into the world's premier development Agency that prioritizes public-private partnerships, innovation, and meaningful results. He currently serves on the boards of the Overseas Private Investment Corporation and the Millennium Challenge Corporation, as well as participates on the National Security Council.
Previously, Dr. Shah served as Undersecretary and Chief Scientist in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, where he created the National Institute for Food and Agriculture. Prior to joining the Obama Administration, he spent eight years at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, where he led efforts in global health, agriculture, and financial services, including the creation of the International Finance Facility for Immunization.
He is a graduate of the University of Michigan, the University of Pennsylvania Medical School, and the Wharton School of Business. He regularly appears in the media and has delivered keynote addresses before the U.S. Military Academy, the National Prayer Breakfast, and diverse audiences across Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. Dr. Shah was awarded the Distinguished Service Award by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. He has served as a World Economic Forum Young Global Leader, been named to Fortune's 40 Under 40, and has received multiple honorary degrees.
He lives in Washington, D.C. with his wife Shivam Mallick Shah and three children and has given up mountain climbing for family bicycle rides.
Sáng nay, chúng ta chào mừng một cột mốc lịch sử đối với quan hệ song phương giữa hai nước.
This morning we celebrate a historic milestone for our bilateral relationship. Today's ceremony marks the start of a project between Vietnam's Ministry of National Defense and the U.S. Agency for International Development, USAID, to clean up dioxin contaminated soil and sediment at the airport left from the Vietnam War. Over the next few years, workers will dig up the contaminated soil and sediment and place it in a stockpile, where it will be treated using thermal desorption technology. This process uses high temperatures to break down the dioxin in the contaminated soil and make it safe by Vietnamese and U.S. standards for the many men, women, and children who live and work in this area.
The United States is gravely concerned by the multiple crises that are affecting the people of Mali: a political crisis following the military coup d'état of March 21, a security crisis as a result of conflict in the North and the actions of several armed groups, a food security crisis affecting populations across the country, all resulting in a complex humanitarian crisis that is affecting the people of Mali as well as its neighbors in the Sahel. 4.6 million Malians face severe hunger; 175,000 Malian children are at risk of severe acute malnutrition; and more than 450,000 have fled their homes because of ongoing violence coupled with food insecurity.
Many of us in this room and thousands of other across the globe have and continue to spend tremendous energy on improving our effectiveness in development. We choose smarter things to do, focusing on key competencies and appropriate roles. We measure relentlessly, inviting cold hard facts to challenge our warm, fuzzy assumptions. We have become hard-nosed in pursuit of our soft goals, and, when doing so, we have often invoked the ideal of 'How They Do It In The Private Sector.' ... Perhaps we need to explore how we could use an open source development model to connect our work to all people. Perhaps to genuinely win the war against extreme poverty, leverage social networks to deliver real democracy, and ensure every kid everywhere lives to see their fifth birthday and thrives in school in the years ahead, we need to both elevate development in the Situation Room of the National Security Council and in the hearts and minds of how millions of additional people express their own personal quest for meaning.
It is an incredible honor to be here and to be here with so many members of Diaspora communities from around this country and around the world. I'm one of you, and so, I'm pleased to be able to join. In fact, joining you last year and hearing about the businesses you've started, the volunteer programs you've supported, the innovations you've generated and the resources and inspiration that you've offered to your original home communities was one of my more personal and inspiring moments of the year. So, thank you for allowing me to participate.
Today, more than 62 million Americans, a full fifth of this nation are first or second generation Diaspora community members. That undoubtedly is what makes our country great. We all collectively represent a vast and diverse community, and we do so much both here and with our home communities and the countries from which we came that we're excited to now have the opportunity to partner more deeply together to improve on the results we can accomplish when we do work together.
At USAID, we understand that our development assistance will never be fully effective unless we draw on the full contributions of the entire population, including previously marginalized groups such as the LGBT community, women, young people, ethnic and religious minorities, people with disabilities, and displaced persons.
Ten years ago, I took part in the first Tokyo conference on Afghanistan on behalf of the United States Government. In many ways, I have a strong sense of deja vu. In January 2002, in the wake of the fall of the Taliban, the world came together to pledge our mutual commitment to support the stability and reconstruction of a fragile and devastated Afghanistan. Working together as a community in support of the Afghan people and government, we have kept faith over the past decade. This fact is reflected in a 15 year increase in life expectancy for the Afghan people; the presence of some seven million students – of which nearly 40 percent are girls -- in schools; a huge decline in infant and maternal mortality; and a three-fold increase in per capita income.
We come together at a moment of great hope and equal challenge with respect to the refugee situation in Afghanistan. We celebrate the return of nearly six million people to Afghanistan from neighboring countries, a clear reflection of the progress we have collectively achieved in rebuilding and stabilizing the country. People are voting for a better life for themselves and their families. Indeed, this is an expression of confidence in the future, one that the United States government has been able to support with more than $700 million in assistance for refugees and returnees over the past decade.
In Tokyo, the international community and the Afghans will come together to discuss the best way to solidify the progress we've made in the past decade. The timing of this conference is significant because it some so quickly on the heels of the G8 in Chicago that focused on the 2014 transition. As we all know, there are really two transitions in 2014 - the transfer of security operations to the Afghans, and also the first democratic transfer of power in the history of Afghanistan.
Dignity and freedom were the banners of the peaceful revolutionaries. They came carrying dignity, and another banner as well, their humanity. They were searching for the humanity inside them; they lost their humanity because of oppression, corruption and injustice. They came sacrificing their lives, their money, their property, and their children – carrying dignity and humanity. The dignity they were asking for was not in vain. This is something God has granted them.
All religions in the world talk about the dignity of the human being. Islam talks about dignity for humans; this is a part of the Quran. Also, the same thing is in the Holy Bible. This dignity comes from humans as a means for rights. This dignity is a regional value that is carried by all human beings, despite their backgrounds or their beliefs. The youths of the Arab Spring and the women raise a banner of dignity, freedom and justice. Free people of the world – let us work for the dignity of all people.
And in the forefront of the Arab Spring, let us support dignity there; let us support dignity in your own countries. You may be surprised why I say your country instead of our country – because i always believed that humanity, that all of the people of the world are one nation. All of humanity is one nation, and all of the people are brothers.

Time to Detox Your Team?
How's the weather where you are?
Not the kind of weather that you experience when you walk outdoors, but the weather when you walk in your office.
Earlier this year I had a conversation with an employee in a business that was really struggling. He said, "When I enter the office in the morning, I can feel the tension. People barely acknowledge each other."
There's an undercurrent that's creating a toxic environment. He said people are out for themselves. They're sabotaging each other. There's no trust.
Over the years I've had similar conversations with a number of people in different industries and businesses of all sizes. Even virtual teams sense when negativity is in the air. As the volume of work increases, stress escalates too.
Is Your Insecurity Showing?
"I thought I was ready, but had no idea what I was getting myself into.
What if I'm not really cut out for this?"
No matter how much experience you've had, it's easy to doubt yourself and wonder if you're "good enough" to get to the next level.
In working with many leaders over the years, I see their thought process as they contemplate ways to expand their impact and advance their careers.
Some are frustrated. They're not moving fast enough into roles they think they deserve. Perhaps they have leadership blind spots.
(If you missed my Special Report on Overcoming Leadership Blind Spots, you can download a free copy here or below.)
They view their situation as something beyond their control.
"You have to know people at the top to get anywhere in this company."
"I'll just have to wait for my turn.

The Elephant in the Room
It's there. Sometimes sitting quietly while you maneuver around it in conversation. You're hoping it might just go away.
Other times, it's so big and blatant that it becomes your sole focus.
It's the elephant in the room, of course. And it's one of the greatest threats to your business.
In my consulting work over the years, I have realized that one of the greatest challenges facing executives is how to deal with the elephant in the room.
You may have missed that lesson in school. Unfortunately, many executives struggle in this area. Consider it an undervalued "leadership skill.

Collierville officials examining budget areas for reduction of expenses, keep tax hike as last option
The town of Collierville wants its residents to tell officials what services the citizens can live without.
A meeting set for Feb. 7 will be for the Council of Neighborhoods and any interested citizens.
Residents of Collierville are invited to a meeting at 6 p.m. Feb. 7 at Town Hall, 500 Poplar View Pkwy., to provide input and feedback about what services might be cut to help balance the budget.
The town has $1.5 million less to spend in the new budget compared with 2008 because of declining revenues. So far, no officials have publicly advocated a property tax increase.
"Police and fire services will stay where they are," said Alderman Tom Allen. "That's the only thing I'm sure that I won't vote for. I'll consider other things."
Revenue has continued to decline in the last four years because of the national economy. Sales tax shares decreased. New construction slowed considerably.
"We are between a rock and a hard place," said Town Administrator James Lewellen. "We need to look at all the services we provide to see if there's anything there that can be cut or any fees that can be increased."
The town has delayed equipment purchases and projects and laid off 22 people in the last few years.
A last resort would be a property tax increase, Lewellen said.
Collierville has the second-lowest property tax rate in the county at $1.18 per $100 of assessed value. Arlington's tax rate is $1. The highest rate in the suburban cities is Bartlett, at $1.49.
It's been eight years since Collierville raised the property tax rate.
If Collierville raised its property tax by 10 cents, the tax on a home appraised at $250,000 would increase $62.50 a year.
"There has to be other ways we can cut before we think about a tax increase," Allen said.
Alderman Tony Sarwar said the town could consider outsourcing some of its services because of the vast drop in commercial and residential development in the last four years.
"We just have rough estimates right now," Sarwar said. "We need to wait until we have a better sense of expenses before we start considering cuts."
The Collierville Board of Mayor and Aldermen will hold a work session every Thursday in February to discuss budget issues with department heads and other employees. The meetings start at 2 p.m. at Town Hall.

SEC BOSS, ARUNMA OTEH: Victim or villain?
A theatre of the absurd: that was what Nigerians were literally treated to last Wednesday at the hallowed chambers of the National Assembly following revelations that the Director-General, Securities and Exchange Commission, Ms. Arunma Oteh, allegedly spent N30 million on hotel bills in eight months following her appointment in January 2010.
More shocking revelations were to follow. In one day alone, it was alleged, Ms Oteh, spent N850,000 on food, while on another day, she incurred additional N85,000 expenses in the same hotel for which SEC's account was debited.
It is instructive to note that the petition that has literally hanged Oteh's career in the balance was allegedly instigated by workers of the commission represented by Mr. Kola Ogba.
The workers had last year in a petition to President Goodluck Jonathan accused Ms. Oteh of squandering over N200 million on hotel accommodation since her appointment as the DG. Copies of the petition were sent to the Senate President, Speaker, House of Representatives, Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Chairman, Senate Committee on Capital Market, Chairman, House Committee on Capital Market and Head of the Civil Service of the Federation. They sought Oteh's removal as DG of SEC.
A litany of sins
According to copies of the NICON Hilton Hotel receipts attached to the petition, the SEC boss has been living in Room 1026 in the five-star hotel since she was appointed.
Besides, the workers lamented the alleged frequent overseas trips by the DG, all of which were made on Business Class, "whereas even a minister travels officially in Economic Class".
Besides Ms Oteh, the petitioners also accused the Chairman of SEC Board, Senator Udoma Udo Udoma, of conniving with the DG to milk the commission dry by also taking a permanent office at SEC, when he was appointed only on a part-time basis.
The petitioners added: "The woman and the chairman are here to loot the commission. The two of them keep boasting to other board members that they have connections in high places, up to the Presidency and that this is their time to make money.
"What of the funny and inexperienced people she brought with her from Tunisia without cognate experience like her and are now directors? As the minister in charge, did you approve these appointments? Who interviewed them and placed them on special scales? "Is there not supposed to be an embargo on appointments? Why not promote from within with capable people marking time as deputy directors?"
Apparently drawing inspiration from that petition, the Chairman of the House of Rep Committee on Capital Market raised further posers.
Among other things, the lawmakers questioned the Legal Commissioner and the Director of Finance on the rational of buying three Toyota Hilux vehicles for N32 million without following the procurement act of passing the resolution to buy the vehicles through the proper tenders' board.
Two Access Bank Plc employees were also said to have been hired as advisers to Oteh.
The two employees, Mr. Charles Ugheli and Mr. Titi Olubiyi, were reportedly engaged in 2010 in breach of due process and against the advice of both the legal and human resource departments of SEC.
SEC is the regulatory authority of the Nigerian capital market, where Access Bank is a key player.
The two officers were said to still retain their appointments with Access Bank but were being paid allowances equivalent to that of a director in the Federal Civil Service whenever they travelled out of Abuja.
The disclosures came to the fore as the House of Representatives Committee on Capital Market looked into the competence of SEC to adequately regulate the market in the light of the crises that had bedevilled the market lately.
The committee said the engagement of the Access Bank employees by SEC was an infraction that could explain why the commission had been unable to stamp its authority on protecting investors.
The Chairman of the committee, Mr. Herman Hembe, noted that questions bearing on integrity, honesty and competence would be raised when a regulator opted to employ workers of one of the agencies it was regulating.
He stated, "Worse still, these employees are still workers of Access Bank. They are paid salaries by Access Bank, but work for SEC. This smacks of plenty fraud and the regulation by SEC is impaired by bias and incompetence."
The Executive Commissioner Legal and Enforcement, Charles Udora confirmed that a memo to buy the vehicle was raised but that he refused to sign it.
He said he did not sign the tender bid to buy the vehicle because he did not attend the tenders' board meeting where the purchase of the vehicle was resolved, "and as the most senior lawyer in the commission, I cannot sign the memo."
Mr. Hembe said though the public procurement acts categorically states that the Secretary of the tenders' board must be the director of the procurement department or someone from the department nominated by the director, in SEC the Secretary is a staff from the tenders' board secretariat.
The committee asked the management of the commission to explain a memo that was issued by the Technical adviser to the DG, Franca Chukwuogu to the Head of Administration.
In the Memo (CADEO) dated 26/01/2011 Ms Chukwuogu had demanded through the head of Administration that the commission pay the rent for a five bedroom bungalow as the official rent for the DG.
Another Memo from the Head of Administration, Bello Ibrahim showed that the rent for the five bedroom apartment at Maitama district of Abuja cost the commission over N62 million.
The Committee asked the management of the commission to explain why it paid the rent of the DG despite the enactment of the monetisation policy by the Federal government.
Furthermore, the committee questioned the rational of the commission for paying the bill of the DG who on appointment stayed at the Hilton Hotel for eight months instead of the 28 days recommended by civil service rule.
The committee also accused the management of SEC of abandoning its own training institute – The Nigeria Capital Market Institute (NCMI) while dishing out training contracts to private consulting firms.
Responding to the allegations of mismanagement, the SEC boss said that the committee was not giving her a fair hearing.
"Not even in Idi Amin time did we have such a kangaroo court", she said.
The Director, Human Resource, SEC, Mr. Useni Dauda, and the Commissioner, Enforcement and Legal, Mr. Charles Ahamefula, both admitted on oath that the two employees were hired on the directive of Oteh.
While Ugheli is designated as "Project Adviser," Olubiyi serves as "Communications Adviser."
Oteh, however, told the committee that the assignment of the two did not conflict with the core mandate of SEC as the regulator of the capital market.
She explained that Ugheli, for example, was a project adviser, whose duty was to assist the commission in expanding its office accommodation in Maiduguri and Port Harcourt.
When asked whether SEC did not have the capacity to hire or use its own employees for such duties, Oteh claimed that the commission did not have the capacity.
However, when asked whether this had been a practice in SEC, the human resource manager replied, "It is strange in my opinion, as we have never done that before."
The committee observed that Oteh's failure to see a link between her actions in relation to the Access Bank employees and the work of the commission questioned her competence as the director-general.
"We will look into your competence as DG of SEC. You will bring all your certificates that qualified you for this job tomorrow and the letter of request to Access Bank for these employees and their schedule of duty," Hembe directed.
Oteh did not respond to the allegation that she spent N30m on hotel accommodation and bought N850,000 food on a particular day.
On several occasions, there were hot exchange of words between Oteh and members of the committee, as the latter consistently queried her managerial capabilities.
A member of the committee, Mr. Olabiyi Oyekola, tried to find out the status of Access Bank and UBA stocks in the capital market, but the DG said she could not answer the question without being briefed by the commission's surveillance team on the Nigerian Stock Exchange.
An attempt to find out SEC's decision on the shares of Industrial and General Insurance and Globe Real, among other firms that had cases with SEC did not yield much result.
Oteh responded that some of the cases predated her, while others were before the Investment and Securities Tribunal.
The committee also produced a letter allegedly written by Oteh stopping an administrative proceeding into the state of the five nationalised banks, a decision it said was "unjustifiable."
However, the SEC DG in a reaction by his spokesperson, Mr. Obi Adindu, said, "On hotel accommodation, when she was headhunted from her former job as Vice-President of the African Development Bank, she was given the option of choosing either a furnished accommodation or receiving cash in lieu.
"She chose the former. When it was not forthcoming, she was offered hotel accommodation in line with the rules guiding the public service. She did not violate any rules whatsoever by staying in the hotel."
On the engagement of the Access Bank employees, Adindu said the DG did not compromise on anything, as she used her personal goodwill to attract two people on secondment to SEC from the bank.
He said, "They (Access Bank employees) work in brand communications support and project management/ premises maintenance, two areas in which SEC was, and still is deficient, and which are absolutely unrelated to the regulatory mandates/roles of SEC. There is, therefore, absolutely no conflict of interest involved in the matter.
"They work pro bono, i.e. without earning any salary at SEC. They are not employees of SEC and have no intention of taking employment at SEC. The DG of SEC should be commended for using her goodwill to attract them at no cost to the commission."
The President, Chartered Institute of Stockbrokers, Mr. Michael Itigboje, who also addressed the committee, lamented that many of the institute's members were out of business "because the market is at its lowest ebb today."
He informed the panel that people they had advised in the past to buy shares lost their investments and no longer had confidence in returning to the market.
"Many of our members have died of heart failure," he said.
Itigboje suggested the enactment of a law making it mandatory for all foreign companies doing business in Nigeria to be listed on the NSE.
He held the view that the presence of more foreign firms on the Exchange could help in restoring investors' confidence.
Expectedly, Oteh who was appointed by the late President Yar 'Adua left her job as Vice President at the African Development Bank (ADB) after the capital market which peaked N12.6 trillion ($110 billion) in March 2008 had declined to a bottom of $32.9 billion, she has today become the butt of derisive jokes with many critics blaming her for the parlous state of the industry.
Crucified for failure of the past
Mr. Boniface Okezie, President, Progressive Shareholders Association of Nigeria, while speaking with The Nation, fell short of accusing her of gross incompetence and dereliction of duty.
According to him, there is no doubt that Ms. Oteh, in the discharge of her duties in the commission failed to deliver on performance.
"She didn't have a sound knowledge of the sector she was presiding over. In the past most people who presided over the affairs of the commission were seasoned or licensed stockbrokers but it was no so in her case", he lamented.
But why didn't so-called leading lights in the sector raise eyebrow when she was being made the DG of the commission, The Nation asked?
"We raised dust at the time of her appointment but nobody listened to us. But we are now vindicated."
Expatiating, he raised a poser: "Where did she gather experience on the job? I know she worked at the CentrePoint Merchant Bank, at the IT Department. So where did she gather the experience that prepared her for the job?"
He was however quick to add that the embattled DG may have been a victim of wrong counsel when she chose to sideline staff of the commission who ordinarily should have been her support base in terms of field experience.
"By choosing to work alone when she would have reaped bountifully from the depository of human resources at the commission, she erred greatly", he stressed.
Mazi Okechukwu Unegbu is on the same page with Okezie.
Though Unegbu admitted that Oteh possesses sterling academic qualifications, she may not have put it to best use after all.
"I recalled that some operators actually went to court to challenge her appointment but I don't exactly know what became of the case as I speak to you now", he said.
Despite the protestations, the government of the day had its way, he recalled.
Continuing, the erstwhile banker and lawyer said what may have been responsible for Oteh's lackluster performance thus far was her refusal to maximise the human capital readily at her disposal.
"What can you make of a regulator that got itself entangled in activities which at best were diversionary? Imagine, the SEC concerned itself with demutisation when it should have faced more pressing issues of the day?"

The Sox traded Bullfrog the only player they've got for Shottenhoffen. Four-eyes Shottenhoffen a utility infielder. They've got a whole team of utility infielders.
One thing that strikes me about the entire rumor thread, is that there has not been one mention of the Reds, acquiring a nearly ready pitcher with options, in any of the trade rumors. After Cingrani, who is likely one of the starting 5, the Reds are going to be leaning on Corcino to be the 6th guy. Yikes! Who is the seventh? Sharky?

I think Reynolds could be back, and there are trade options, like the one that brought over Todd Redmond.
Also, as was pointed out, Stephenson is coming quick. If he has his control in AA like it was in Dayton and Bakersfield he could be ready by May or June.
The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. -- Terrance Mann (Field of Dreams)
I'd love to see ANY deal with the Rangers bring back Gentry. The guy doesn't seem to be in their OF picture, and gets on base at a high clip. He'd make a good platoon/backup for Hamilton, or could play LF with BHam in CF.
Bailey for Kinsler and Gentry
Phillips to the Yankees (if they don't re-sign Cano) for Ivan Nova?

The second wildcard has relieved some of the pressure.
Let's say we do a radical makeover and trade Phillips,Homer, and Chapman for some younger talent. That could also torpedo 2014. I'm more worried about a team like the Nats, Giants, or Diamondbacks getting better than I am worried about catching the Pirates or Cards. You're right, we are behind them in talent, but the playoffs are still attainable.
2015 is a lot more sketchy. I want to go all in for 2014.
Another point.. Most people here are somewhat nervous about Billy H being ready offensively for 2014. That's reasonable. But few here seem to question hypothetically replacing Phillips with Profar.. Profar only OPSed 644 last year.
Granted Profar has a huge ceiling, but potentially he's a huge hole in the lineup for 2014, especially if he comes in to replace Phillipls.
I guess to get to the point.. I'd hate to sabotage 2014 for the future. Why end the window a year early by making the wrong trades of Bailey and Phillips.. If they do trade those guys, I hope it's a smart trade.
At some point, the roster will need to be retooled, but no point in accelerating that timeline. I'd rather go for status quo than start the rebuilding process too early.

Stephenson for 6th man
From the non-discussion thread:
Are the Dodgers getting Andrus as a utility infielder?The Rangers and Dodgers discussed trades during the GM Meetings, looking to fill the other team's respective needs in the outfield and infield, FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal reports (Twitter links). The Dodgers had interest in shortstop Elvis Andrus while the Rangers had interest in Matt Kemp, though they were concerned about the $128MM owed to Kemp through 2019 and his recent injury problems. Talks between the two sides didn't go anywhere, Rosenthal said.
Doesn't seem to make a lot of sense, considering Hanley does not want to go to 3rd.
Maybe Andrus is going to play 2b or 3b, despite the fact they signed the Cuban FA?

Slobber-knocker blockbuster time.
According to MLBTR, Blue Jays need SP, 2B, C, and are interested in both Phillips and Hanigan. So, my idea fantasy-style...
Reds trade: Bailey, Phillips, Ludwick, Hanigan
Jays trade: Bautista and Rasmus
Who hangs up?
Money seems to work. Jays open up space for Gose and Sierra, their two OF prospects, while improving the rotation and two premium defensive positions.
Reds get major OF upgrade and can move Hamilton to 2B. Rasmus only signed for 2014 (like Bailey) but Reds could get a cheap veteran bridge to Ervin if Hamilton sticks at 2B and Rasmus won't re-sign. Jocketty drafted Rasmus. Reds could then extend Latos and one of the other pitchers, or re-sign Rasmus if he can repeat 2013 and Ervin is still a ways off. Or they could just make Rasmus a qualifying offer.
2B Hamilton
CF Rasmus
1B Votto
LF Bautista
RF Bruce
3B Frazier
C Mesoraco
SS Cozart
Maybe Reds even agree to take on Ricky Romero if Jays pay 80-90% of his remaining salary, if it helps the financial equation. That guy clearly needs a change of scenery, at least.

Stephenson will depend on how he does. If he does great, he'll be knocking at the door in late May. If not, it will take longer.
The Reds have six starters if you include Chapman. They will acquire backup starting pitchers, particularly if they trade somebody like Bailey. I'm sure it's on their shopping list.

Dennis Hennis, a self-employed builder from Vineland, recently told his doctor that the second chance at life he has received is like winning the lottery to him.
Dr. Michael Rosenbloom removed a four-inch nail from Hennis' heart that had pierced his right ventricle, sending Hennis into cardiac arrest.
According to Reuters, Hennis was working on a neighbor's roof when his nail gun jammed and he tried to clear it. He mistakenly pointed it toward himself, not a great idea. A nail gun can fire 4-inch nails at 120 pounds per square inch.
Hennis said, "It was about a foot away and it went right into my chest, right into my heart." Rosenbloom told 6abc.com, "He's very lucky. There are so many things that had to take place for him to be alive."
Fog prevented paramedics from airlifting Hennis to Cooper University Hospital, so an ambulance had to drive him the 50-mile distance until the fog lifted. Hennis had to be resuscitated on the way to the hospital after going into cardiac arrest.
Surgeons spent two hours trying to remove the nail and repairing Hennis' heart. He said to ABC News, "They had to stop my heart for 40 minutes for it to reset, and then they shocked it back on and I'm here." Hennis said he was in and out of consciousness for three days and doesn't remember much.
When Rosenbloom mentioned that he should buy a lottery ticket, Hennis said, "I got a new grandson on my birthday on March 23, and a week later I'm almost dead. Now we can celebrate birthdays together." Hennis is 52.
Hennis' family will be holding a benefit for him soon since he is not covered by medical insurance.

Digital Photograph - Fashion Parade, Women on Farms Gathering, Horsham, 2004 Reg. No: MM 90809
- Summary:
- Image taken at the 2004 Horsham Women on Farms Gathering. This image depicts a woman dressed in a handcrafted dress during the Saturday night's celebratory dinner, which included a fashion parade titled 'Farm Art Creative Fashions'. This fashion parade saw young volunteer models strut the catwalk wearing garments made from materials sourced from farm yards, farm sheds and paddocks. This outfit was made from dog food packaging. Some of the other fashions were made from tubes from tractor tyres, fencing wire and sheep and goat wool. Designers of these outfits originally exhibited them in the Wimmera Machinery Field Days Farm Art competition. Some of the garments were later paraded at the Royal Melbourne Show.
- Description:
- Colour Digital Photograph
- Statement Of Significance:
- Celebratory dinners are a regular feature of the Victorian Women on Farms Gatherings. During these dinners women feast on local produce and wines and are also entertained with women?s stories, speeches and performances, which have included songs, theatricals, fashion parades, comedy skits and dances. Often these performances have carried an underlying message about rural life from a woman?s perspective, touching on a range of themes including farm succession, gender equality, community, work, and family life. This fashion parade, for example, celebrates the resourcefulness of farming women, as well as their combined creative talents.
The celebratory dinners provide an informal occasion for networking, sharing ideas and developing new friendships. They also allow women from across Victoria to relax, rejuvenate and recharge their batteries. Situated in the wider context of the rural women's movement in Australia, these dinners exemplify the importance of communication to the lives of rural women, as well as the varied ways in which women have networked, celebrated their lives and affirmed their rural identities.
