Using pulleys to pick up a bike.
Some people have been asking me about a pulley setup for picking up a bike. I figured I'd put it here too. Here's the basic setup if your only anchor is something on the ground. The board levers the bike upwards. If you can anchor the pulleys high up in the tree then there's no need for the board. More photos.
lifting downed bike
The young lady in this video shows how it is done without the pulleys. This method works.
Carry a board around with ya? Pulleys?
pulleys and rope, absolutely (2 pulleys, 2 prussik rope, 20-40m of 8mm rope, 2-4 carabiners, to setup a Z-drag).
ratchit strap... jiggly jiggle jiggle...
Harbor Freight sells these little rope/pulley setups for $4.99. It packs down pretty well.
Might get you out of a tight spot....might not.
(sorry for pursuing the off topic discussion, I think they are worthy notes about other scenarios)
I initially bought similar block and tackle, but the z-drag setup is more versatile and you get a longer reach for a given length of rope.
just remember, for security sake, that any knot reduces its rope strength by at least half, and that dragging against mud, rocks and vegetation is increasing the load. Also, a 500lbs block and tackle typically has a rope of much less capacity because of mechanical advantage.
Following these instructions, she probably could.
What makes this method even easier is instead of picking the bike up from a crouched position with your knees bent, if you extend your legs and take tiny baby steps back toward the bike, it comes up so easily that I've actually seen small women throw the bike over on the other side. (They were using my bike. :bluduh)
While the block and tackle are a neat idea, it's just not practical when there are so many easy ways to just pick the bike up.
Cheap block and tackle uses nylon pulleys. I would only get all metal ones. A nice braided nylon rope is easy to work with and has many uses too.
I have never been able to pick up my TEX alone. It's extremely top heavy. When it goes over (without panniers), the wheels are off the ground. The TEX's center of gravity must be above the engine guards unlike a 1200GS. Picking it up is like doing a 600lb deadlift.
I think the best method for her would be to stand next to it, and look helpless. Ten guys would be stopping to help her immediately. :lol3
The method I saw at a BMW class (not that I own a BMW) was to pick it up, facing the bike, by the lower handlebar. A woman picked up a GS1200 like that. You get as close as possible, look up (which keeps your back straight) and lift with your legs.
I mean, the video shows a good'old butt-push technique, but it is mostly useless when one doesn't have an excellent feet grip (which typically is pretty rare around the area you just failed to ride through...) to push at 20-30 degrees
anyhow, back to the tip:
So, this plank, if one does fall over often or anticipates to, one can certainly find it worth to carry it around. It can also act as a bench or table, or safe ground to rest the bike on center/side stand overnight, for those camping. Do you have any other unusual purpose for it?
It got me thinking, the board has to be tall enough for lifting purposes, and large enough to avoid tipping sideways. In fact what you could use is 2 poles resting in triangle with the ground. Maybe aluminum is solid enough and lighter; maybe you can also find something telescopic like in aluminum crutches, to reduce length.
block and tackle
Then you just pick the son of a bitch up and hope you don't get a hernia or have your hemorrhoids poke out...
I used rope/pulleys/jack in a stuck once.
Except it was on the snowmobile.
And it was stuck bretty damn gud.
lots of shoveling
and the pig's finally out of the hole

Azerbaijani Airlines has announced it will continue flights to Israel during the current conflict in Gaza.
The announcement comes as the Federal Aviation Adminstration banned United States airlines from flying in or out of Ben Gurion International Airport near Tel Aviv, citing the danger of a nearby Hamas rocket attack.
Germany, France, Austria, Turkey, Switzerland and Russia joined in suspending their flights to Israel for an indefinite time.
But the regular AZAL air flight from Baku, Azerbaijan's capital, to Israel occurred as scheduled at 09:44 am today, according to AZAL spokesman Maharram Safarli.
Azerbaijan is a predominately Shiite Muslim country that borders Iran, Russia and the Caspian Sea. A small Jewish community has resided there for hundreds of years, where it has enjoyed relative tolerance and prosperity. Today, Azerbaijan is one of Israel's largest suppliers of natural gas.
Safarli said the company has no plans to suspend flights to Israel, "because the Israeli state guarantees security."

AT Online finally has a new layout thanks to the ever talented Courtney. The last one was up since the site turned five in 2013 so I figured it was time for something different. The main site, gallery and video archive will all have matching layouts. The gallery and main site have already been changed and the video archive will be in the next couple of days. I've changed a few things around, updated the con list, etc. Let me know if you run into any problems or see something I missed.
Chicago Stargate Convention 2015, Possible Fundraiser
The last fundraiser we did was held the last night of the Stargate Chicago Con in August and combined with the online portion, raised an amazing amount of money for Sanctuary for Kids. This was in large part due to Paula's generous donation of props for an auction. A few of you might be aware that the reason we decided to do a live in-person event was that it was suppose to be the last Stargate convention. Obviously that wasn't the case as there's going to be another one this year. We were very much on the fence about attending again but with the recent announcement that Amanda was booked as a guest, I can't even begin to tell you how quickly two tickets were bought. This of course led to a bunch of hemming and hawing about another event. Do we? Don't we? What if no one shows up? Pretty much everything that went through our minds last time. The only thing we have on our side (besides you guys) is that this won't be our first time anymore. We learned a lot last time, including the fact that the auction of props is what made it such a huge success. That being said, I'm going to be completely honest. We've decided that we'd hold another fundraiser like last year if we could collect some props to auction off. They don't have to be Stargate/Amanda related, in fact the item which caused the biggest bidding war (and resulted in me having to watch Farscape) was a picture autographed by the entire cast of Farscape. If anyone has anything they'd like to donate as an auction item, we'd be eternally grateful. You have a few months to think about it but know that if you do decide you have anything you'd like to donate (whether you're attending or not) we'd make sure that it wouldn't go for anything less than what you think it should.
If you have any questions or want to get in contact with me, send an email to email@example.com and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

Sanctuary for Kids Fundraiser 'Pieces & Places'
It's that time again, my favorite fundraiser is back (with a few changes). Sanctuary for Kids launched its winter fundraising campaign today, 'Pieces and Places.' In years past they did the house campaigns where you can donate money as a group to buy bricks and the bricks form a house. This time it's a little different. Instead of bricks, we make puzzles pieces and instead of houses, we form puzzles. The end result is the same but they're switching it up on us this time.
For those of you that are new to this fundraiser, it's really quite simple. When you go to the Sanctuary for Kids website to make a donation, just put what your donation is going towards in the comment box. I've contacted Sanctuary for Kids and sent them the group name Mutu (it means heart in Nepali) so anyone who would like to take part in this puzzle building group would put that the donation is going towards building the Mutu Puzzle. That's all there is to it. You may donate any amount you like, as many times as you'd like.
For every $20 raised per group, you get a puzzle piece. There are 50 pieces per puzzle so each puzzle is $1,000. That's half of what a house was so I know we can build at least one puzzle together. I say we shoot for two puzzles though. If we manage to build two or more puzzles, I'll try to find something cool to give away. The campaign runs from now until February 14th so we have plenty of time to build a whole bunch of puzzles together.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact me via email, twitter or facebook and I'll try to help.
I can't wait to see all what all the puzzles are going to be!

When a Company Gets Sold, Your Data May Be Sold, Too 92 92
An anonymous reader writes: A new report points out that many of the top internet sites have language in their privacy policies saying that your private data might be transferred in the event of an acquisition, bankruptcy sale, or other transaction. They effectively say, "We won't ever sell your information, unless things go bad for us." 85 of the top 100 websites in the U.S. (ranked by Alexa), had this sort of language, including Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Google, Hulu, and LinkedIn. (RadioShack did this recently.) "The potential ramifications of the fire sale provisions became clear two years ago when True.com, a dating site based in Plano, Tex., that was going through a bankruptcy proceeding, tried to sell its customer database on 43 million members to a dating site based in Canada. The profiles included consumers' names, birth dates, sexual orientation, race, religion, criminal convictions, photos, videos, contact information and more. Because the site's privacy policy had promised never to sell or share members' personal details without their permission, Texas was able to intervene to stop the sale of customer data, including intimate details on about two million Texans." But with this new language, users no longer enjoy that sort of protection. Only 17 of the top 100 sites even say they will notify customers of the data transfer. Only a handful allow users to opt out.

Rose, 20-year-old student president of Live Action, emphasizes the importance of enforcing the laws that protect minors from sexual abuse. "We expect the Arizona Attorney General to uphold the law and prosecute Planned Parenthood for returning victimized young girls into the arms of their abusers, rather than notifying the responsible authorities as required by law. When compared to all of the responsible organizations that carefully follow reporting laws, Planned Parenthood's negligent and outright subversive conduct stands out as both shameful and criminal."

BSD drivers and laptop in docking station
I'm using the FreeBSD drivers from Nvidia, version 1.0-4365. This is a Dell Inspiron laptop with 16 MB video memory. XFree86 works great when the laptop is not docked in an Advanced Port Replicator. I can start and stop X sessions and switch between consoles with no problem. However, when I dock the laptop and start X, only the X console (number 5) works. When I try to swich to another console, I get a rainbow of colors and and an unreadable vertically lined screen. If I try to kill X, then I have to hard reboot to get the laptop to work.
My guess is it's a problem with how the APR is handling the screens but I'm not sure.
Anyone else have this issue?

Yeah, it would have been strange to see Donnie Baseball in Dodger blue. But I think I speak for the Mattingly fanatics when I say we wished him the best. Then we heard of his divorce filing, which was going to take him away from his hitting coach position and put him in a special assignment role. Well, it seems things are pretty bad for the Mattinglys. Kim Mattingly was arrested over the weekend
Later, police were called back to the scene, where they found Kim trying to leave as the passenger in a car. Police then arrested her. It's sad to see things turn out like this for Donnie and his wife. We wish him the best as he deals with his current situation.

VALLEY CENTER, Kan., April 7, 2008 /PRNewswire/ -- With the final stages of the production process complete, the groundbreaking Flight Ultralight Wheelchair is now available for purchase. Designed, developed and manufactured by Aero Innovative Research, Inc. (AIR, Inc.) of Valley Center, Kansas, the Flight Ultralight features lightweight aerospace components, and is the world's lightest, fully-adjustable, rigid, folding frame wheelchair. The wheelchair weighs just 18 pounds with wheels, and can be folded to a width of 9 1/2 inches, hand rim to hand rim.
(Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20080407/AQM110A)
"This has been a long and challenging journey," said Keith Entz, president of AIR, Inc. "Due to our aerospace-based construction techniques and the precise tolerances required, our production capability has been under constant refinement. We're delighted to finally be able to produce and sell a better wheelchair."
In May 2006, AIR, Inc. received FDA approval (510K) for the manufacture of its chair. In December 2007, the Flight wheelchair received code approval from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services for inclusion in the Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS), used by health insurance programs in the processing of reimbursement claims.
Other technical improvements of the Flight Ultralight Wheelchair:
Caster Bearings: Features a combination roller/needle bearing rated for 6,000 pounds axial (up and down) load and 2,000 radial (front to back and side to side load). Most other wheelchairs currently use a single ball bearing race rated at 350 pounds radially, and not designed for axial loading.
Rigid Frame: The rigid frame structure eliminates the weaknesses
inherent in weld-based construction. It is Computer Numerical Control (CNC)

53 year old man | Burbank, CA, USA | Seeking women 37-52 within 50 miles
Honey, I'm home!
Hello! I'm a fun, fit, successful creative guy, hoping to find a terrific woman to have and to hold... I spent a few decades as a comedic TV "series regular" actor, and I've moved on to TV production and business ventures. I also love writing, and have a young adult novel out there, making kids laugh and hopefully read more! Last year, I started directing episodes of a sitcom (also for kids), and I really enjoy the challenge, the camaraderie, and the residuals. ;-) I'd say that I'm the grounded, nesting type – I've owned the same house for 23 years, and have friendships of the decades-long variety. My family's great — my brothers and I are close, and my parents were together for 44 years before my father's passing. He was a CPA, and I got my quirky sense of humor from him. Not sure if that's good! Outside of work, I enjoy movies, exploring the arts, reading, the occasional poker night, and practicing magic. (I was a pro magician for decades, and still pull the occasional coin out of the occasional ear.) I also enjoy working out — I go to a small gym where everybody knows your name, so don't be surprised if they know all about you if you show up! I'd love to travel more after a whirlwind tour of Paris last year. Let's make it happen for us...
Coffee and conversation , Cooking , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Performing arts , Playing cards , Shopping/Antiques , Travel/Sightseeing , Volunteering , Wine tasting
Billiards / Pool, Bowling, Cycling, Dancing, Tennis / Racquet sports, Weights / Machines
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I like Cats, Dogs, Exotic Pets, Fish
I have a cat, Liam. (Irish for "strong-willed warrior." Liam is such. Grasshoppers, beware!)
You *must* go to Yang Chow in Chinatown and ask for their Slippery Shrimp. I'd love to travel more. Like I've been to Moscow, but not to Hawaii. What's up with that?! UPDATE: Loved Paris! I'll take you there. Okay, maybe coffee first.
Mad Men! Though "Better Call Saul" will suffice since Mad Men is over. Fave movies: The Verdict, Three Days of the Condor, Moulin Rouge, Groundhog Day, Sweet Smell of Success. All-time favorite book, read as a teen — Watership Down.
I enjoy good friends and family, good food (He cooks, too!), weekend excursions or reading in bed, home improvement projects, entertaining, exploring the arts, and writing.
Two books on my night table: "Johnny Carson," by his longtime lawyer Henry Bushkin, and "Beautiful Ruins." I seem to gravitate toward non-fiction.

It's a good Mac lipstick, quality wise and even colour wise, just not for me. I had to swap this away. I was hoping for sexy lips, but got more orange/brown lips. But for people with different colours this could be great, I actually tried it on my boyfriend just for fun and it looked great on him. Maybe I have too lightly pigmented lips or maybe I'm too pale or something or just too cool.

love this lipstick im a mac C40 its a beautiful light peachey brown nude highly pigmented it cancels out the colour in my lips which is more pinky purple tis not drying and is long lasting, i line my lips with rimmel tiramisu lip pencil which is the best lip liner in the world and quite similar to this lipstick in colour. i find with this lipstick I can pair lots of different glosses on top to create different shades dependant on outfits boy bait to be completely nude or dabs of other bright pink or coral glosses, its a good base to bring out the colour of your lipglosses which can sometime get lost on bare lips. a bit of lippy under your gloss also increases lasting power and makes lipgloss look even and smooth

This is my weekend/casual Friday-t-shirt-and-sneakers lipstick. Its a bit darker than the website swatch, so be aware of that if you plan to purchase online. I just bought a new one this morning, so it doesn't look like its been discontinued. Lovely colour, I can't imagine this looking bad on anyone. Its a sort of coral tone on me. Nude, but better. I don't find it as drying as some of the other mattes (such as Ruby Woo) which makes it more wearable. Speaking of wear, this wears beautifully, only needing occasional touchups. Love it. :)

This lipstick has to be one of the most drying/line emphasizing lipsticks ive used. Its a matte lipstick which tends to be more drying but this was extreme.I also tired to put lip balm on b4 i would apply this lipstick which still wouldnt work...wasnt creamy but one pro to it was that it was very long lasting or else i would have given it a 1

This is one of my HG lipsticks! I'm surprised to see people calling it peach as it pulls clearly pink on me. I'd call it a pinky nude. Very natural and just beautiful. This and Cherish are the only nude lipsticks I can get to work for me (Cherish being peachy and this one being pinky) I love the matte texture and don't find them drying at all. They last like nobody's business! This one just screams "give me a smokey eye to go with"! Perfect in every way.

Backups in place for this color as always.
This is a nude peachy/pink MATTe (which I love). It works well straight on or as a stain. Any pink/peach or coral gloss works beautifully with this -- I especially love C Thru.
The color works on all skin tones -- I have used it on myself and on clients.

I really love this color. With that said, I do have one major complaint about the color. I find that if I liberally apply this color on dry lips, I end up looking clown like a lot of lipstick on my face. So, I always have to make sure that I put a moisturizer on my lips before I put this on and make sure that I don't put too much on. A MAC sales person told me that they only carry this color through the website and not through their counter. This is still one of my favorite lipsticks to turn to though.

How to Detoxed Using a 9 Day System
Looking to try the Isagenix 9 Day System Deep Cleansing?
Let me show you how it works:
This 9-day cleanse sometimes lasts for 11 days. The first two days are "shake" days, which is a combination of drinking a shake for breakfast, eating a light lunch, and drinking a shake for dinner. And in between you can eat Isagenix Snacks, drink lots of water, and take capsules that are meant to speed up your metabolism and give you energy.
Then, the next two days are – The Cleanse Days – where you pretty much eat nothing at all. You drink a lot of water, the Cleanse for Life serum (it's like a shot) multiple times a day, and in between, you can eat those the Isagenix Snacks to control your appetite.
After that, there's four more consecutive shake days, and then two more cleanse days.
The focus is to get rid of the toxins in your body, and in the process, lose weight (an average of 7 pounds, they say) and inches from your waist.
Here is a day by day of the Isagenix 9 Day System
Day 1 (Shake Day)
This is not your ordinary milkshake, the goal is to put a lot of nutrients into your body and the shakes do just that in one serving. It tastes okay by itself, however, you can add flavoring to make it taste the way you want it to.. The snacks, are to control your hunger throughout the day. For lunch, make it a colorful meal and call it a day.
Day 2 (Shake Day)
Is much like day one. At this point you want to snack more and make sure you're eating enough to keep you from feeling dizzy or light headed. It's hard to know what your tolerance is until you give it a try. Drink plenty of water!
Day 3 (Cleanse Day)
Detox Day. Cleanse for Life and Isagenix snacks to keep your stomach occupied. Make sure you drink tons of water to help keep you feeling somewhat full. By the end of this day is when only the strong survive. However, the reward of weight loss will have you doing this again in the future.
Day 4 (Cleanse Day)
Another Detox Day. Cleanse for Life and Isa snacks. Prepare for the celebration this night. There is a good chance you lost a significant amount of weight. Mentally, you need to keep yourself focused. This very rewarding and very challenging as well.
Day 5 (Shake Day)
This shake will be the best thing you have ever tasted. Your meal is going to eat is going to be unbelievable This day is the same as day 1 and 2.
Day 6 (Shake Day)
You made it to day 6! Believe me when I say this, It gets easier after day 5. You get into the grove and start to understand how people can do this for 30 days for the Isagenix 30 day system. You will now enjoy the shake because of your new found appreciation for food and you meal is going to taste as good as Thank Giving dinner. You will have more energy than you could imagine.
Day 7 (Shake Day)
This day will be much like day 6 will tons of energy and motivation that the end is near but you won't really care about the end at this point.
Day 8-9 (Cleanse Day)
This is definitely easier than the first two cleanse days. Your day will feel more normal and this will not be as challenging as the first two cleanse days. When you hop on the scale, you see the difference.
It's recommended to do two more shake days and then start returning to your normal eating habits. I will forewarn you, this will change the way you think about food and make you more conscious of what you're putting into your mouth.
FAQ About Isagenix Products
Are all of Isagenix products organic?
As part of the Isagenix promise to provide great products, Isagenix uses the highest-quality raw materials. Isagenix does prefer to use organic ingredients whenever available—and does so in many of the Isagenix products. Not all ingredients, however, are organic due to lack of availability. As always, every product is thoroughly inspected to ensure safety, purity, and potency.
What is IsaLyte™ and why is it included in many of your products?
Over the many years of industrialization and continual use of our farmlands, our food supply has become progressively depleted of vitamins and minerals, as well as trace minerals that are important for good health and needed for many functions of the body. IsaLyte™ is a special proprietary blend of more than 70 organic ionic trace minerals extracted from an ancient plant deposit by use of purified water and no heat. The end result is a clear gold liquid that provides you with one of the most superior nutritional supplements in the world.
Are Isagenix products FDA approved?
The FDA does not pre-approve nutritional or dietary supplements because they are regulated as foods (not drugs) under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) of 1994. The FDA does monitor manufacturing practices and labeling for compliance. Isagenix does use products with an FDA GRAS (generally recognized as safe) certification if available.
Are Isagenix products patented?
Isagenix products are classified as foods and dietary supplements, not drugs—so they cannot be patented. We do, however, use proprietary blends to protect our formulas from becoming competitor "knock-offs." We may use a patented ingredient in our formulas, as in the case of Ester C® in C-Lyte.
IsaDermix products include patented Matrixyl™ 2000 in the Eye & Lip Firming Treatment and patented Argireline® in the P.M. Replenishing Cream.
Why does Isagenix keep information about formulas proprietary?

The Minnesota Twins have designated right-hander Matt Guerrier for assignment and will recall right-hander Ryan Pressly from Triple-A Rochester to take his place in the bullpen.
The move was made Wednesday. The Twins have 10 days to trade or place Guerrier on unconditional waivers. If he clears waivers, Minnesota can release him.
Guerrier had a 3.86 ERA in 27 appearances, but he gave up four runs in the ninth inning Tuesday. The 35-year-old is third on the club's all-time relief innings list with 488.
Guerrier was one of three former Twins from playoff teams of the previous decade who returned this spring to make the opening day roster, but he was the third to go after Jason Bartlett and Jason Kubel.
Pressly will join the team Friday.

Miami FL Senior
40: 5.20
Definitely looks the part of an NFL tackle with good size and long arms. Shows pop off the snap and is able to engulf defender as an interior run blocker. Shows ability and potential as a drive blocker. Athletic enough to make the cut block. Shows mean streak and does a good job finishing his blocks. Can maul a defender when he gets his hands on you. Size makes him hard to get around and uses his size well to get position as a run blocker. Shows ability to make the seal block on the edge and second level.
Has poor footwork on the edge. Tends to slide and cross his feet on the edge. Doesn't stay square long enough and struggles matching up against speed whether he's inside or outside. Needs to do a better job initiating contact on the edge. Whiffs on his punch too much and can be beat with a swim or inside move on the edge. Lets defenders get their hands on him and can lose balance and leverage. Ends up on the ground too much. Doesn't set up well and needs to do a better job bending his knees. Maybe prone to false starts. Needs to take better angles as a run blocker at the point of attack. Tends to block too high and needs to improve his hand placement to do a better job locking on in the ground game. Can be slow off the snap. Not as effective when you ask him to block in space. Misses too many assignments when you ask him to pull.
Franklin has good tools, but he's unpolished and raw. He's a bit of a project that has the size, strength, and athleticism to play four out of the five positions up front. BUt he's a better fit at guard where he played earlier in his career because he's too raw with his technique and footwork to trust on the edge. Started 25 games over his first three seasons at left guard before replacing Jason Fox at left tackle for final two games of his junior campaign. Made permanent move to that spot this past year as a senior, logging 12 starts. Underwent knee surgery at the end of the season to repair a torn meniscus he suffered during his junior year that he played through as a senior. He was born in Jamaica, but moved to Canada at a young age. Then moved to Florida during high school. Weighed 345 pounds after his freshman year, but has been able to maintain a good weight under 325 since.
Franklin has enough athleticism that he could play right tackle in a pinch, but he's too raw there and unless he can improve his footwork and technique significantly, he'll just be an average starter at best. If he gets time on the bench to develop, there is a chance he can be a starter there. But he's probably better off playing guard, which is his more natural position and will be able to impact more quickly there. He's still raw, and again his footwork and technique need to improve, but his flaws are better hidden at guard. And his size and strength make him a more effective run blocker and pass protector when he's working in confined space like he would at guard. He's a guy that you'll probably have to develop for the better part of three years before you can expect him to really make a push as a starter. I like his size, strength, and tools so he can develop, but he'll have a much better chance if the team that drafts him is patient. While he has similar tools, he's not going to be another Leonard Davis. If he can fill out his frame a bit more, then he probably will be more like a Stacy Andrews. He'll probably wind up being a starter, but the question will likely be how good a starter he can be. The more time he gets to develop and the better the pieces around him, the better he's going to be. He can be a decent complementary starter that can stick for a couple of years if he can become a more consistent, physical run blocker.
Franklin can develop in Atlanta because he offers potential as a run blocker. But he's a long-term project. The Falcons probably will try to stash him on the bench and use him as a utility guy. He's probably not good enough to earn a spot in the Falcons initial rotation but because he has much greater long-term upside, he could probably unseat a guy like Garrett Reynolds for the last roster spot. He's not going to be a better option as a swing tackle than Svitek is, but in three years he could replace him in that role if he improves enough. But more likely, he's a nice insurance policy and has potential to be a good road-grading run blocker. He probably will never be consistent enough, but if he can clear running lanes and be OK for the most part in pass protection, he has a chance to stick down the road in Atlanta as a starter. But that's probably at least two or more years away.
Because of his raw tools and upside, Franklin is probably worth as high as a third round pick. But he'd be a reach taking him before that because he's got a longer length to impact than less talented players.

The current image is of her looking away and with her hand across her face, so is there any chance we can change it to this image that's more centered and has a neutral expression? --Sarutobii2 (talk) 10:20, April 10, 2015 (UTC)

An attractive aspect of Apple's product line has been the way the company has managed to preserve the elements of its user interface (UI) across its hardware platforms. With the introduction of Windows 8, though, Microsoft is bringing that same kind of cross-platform design elegance to products running its operating system.
Nowhere is that more evident than in Redmond's reworking of its interface for its Outlook Web App (OWA). Long a poor relative of Outlook for the desktop, the new release of OWA maintains its strong design elements across whatever device it's running on, as well as incorporating the functionality clamored for by users of older releases of the software.
A cornerstone of the new OWA is its ability to mold itself to the device it's cooking in. It not only recognizes screen sizes but also navigational options—mouse, keyboard and touch. Not only does that kind of scalabililty create a comfortable experience for users, but it allows Microsoft to develop OWA in a parallel fashion so each version of the application can maintain UI consistency.
Depending on the device OWA is operating on, it will slip into one of three modes. For laptops and larger devices, there's Desktop mode, which displays a UI optimized for mouse and keyboard input. For tablet screens, seven to 10 inches diagonally, there's a Touch-Wide mode. And for phone-sized screens, from 3.5 to five inches, there's a Touch-Narrow mode.
All three modes are supported by OWA with a minimum of complexity. More than 90 percent of the application logic operating under the UI is shared by the three modes. For users, that means a consistent experience across devices.
They don't have to relearn functions like managing email or calendar appointments when they hop from platform to platform. For administrators, it means that policies they create for OWA will be in place and working regardless of the device it's operating on.
The UI itself is clean without appearing barren and fresh without appearing confused. It's very similar to the UI Microsoft is using with its Hotmail replacement, Outlook.com.
In Desktop mode, you have three columns. The first column is where you can access your folders and "quick views" and filters. There are some default folders—inbox, junk, drafts, sent and deleted—and quick views—documents, flagged, photos and shipping dates—but you can add customized folders and views as well.
The second column lists the messages in the folder selected in the first column, and the third column displays the text in the message selected in the second column.
When you view OWA in a device that uses Tablet-Wide mode, you can view two columns—a list of messages, for instance, and a column of what's in them. In Tablet-Narrow mode, a single column is displayed of the messages in your inbox.
OWA's new interface complements other new features Microsoft has added to the software. For instance, users can work offline with the program. Whatever work is done while disconnected will be uploaded when an Internet connection is reestablished. Messages can also be composed within the application. In older versions of OWA, messages had to be composed in a new window.
With its new UI and added functionality, OWA will be a worthy companion to Exchange 2013 when it's debuted next month.

It's 'Buyer Beware' in UK boat market. The thought of buying a boat in Britain and sailing home to wherever-you-are might be very attractive while the second hand boat market is so depressed, but Jane Gentry, CEO of the Yacht Brokers Designers and Surveyors Association (YBDSA) has some cautionary words.
Buying a boat in Britain - it's Buyer Beware
According to Gentry, buyer pressure to find the 'best deal out there' has turned the UK's used boat market into a ticking time-bomb
With less money in their pockets and more choice of used boats than ever before, boat buyers are doing all they can to grab a bargain. Unfortunately, this means they are taking more risks when it comes to protecting their purchase.
'It is easy for buyers and sellers to believe that they have got all their ducks in a row, but there's a general lack of understanding about the legal process involved,' explains Gentry. 'The stats are alarming: reportedly over half of all the boats that our Association of Brokers & Yacht Agents (ABYA) members have for sale have issues with their paperwork that have to be corrected to ensure legal ownership. This Marine Legal Conveyancing work can be complicated and laborious, but it is all part of the legal service that ABYA brokers include in their fee.'
'In the next five years the marine industry is going to have all kinds of problems with undocumented boats,' warns Gentry. 'The recreational boating market is already awash with vessels that don't have a proper paper trail, making the whole sector a legal minefield for future buyers and sellers.'
The ownership of a boat can only be proven with a complete trail of documents, from the original Builders Certificate from the manufacturer, right through 'Bills of Sale' which pass title from owner to owner. These, along with any VAT documentation, RCD Certification, other licences, certificates, engine warranties and photographs are all essential items to have when buying or selling a boat. 'The growth in popularity of on-line auction sites for buying and selling boats, has compounded the issue even further; with buyers willing to take a chance for what appears to be a great deal.' adds Gentry.
Fortunately, there is a solution. For a small fee (not a commission or a percentage) you can employ the services of an independent broker who will guide you through the whole process and help ensure that the boat you are buying: doesn't have any hidden history; belongs to the person selling it; doesn't have any outstanding finance, hasn't been brought into the EU illegally, etc.
An independent Yacht Designers & Surveyors (YDSA) surveyor will also be able to identify any significant defects to ensure there are no expensive surprises waiting around the corner. As a survey is required for insurance it can have a dual use.
'Generally, buyers have more to lose in these transactions than the sellers, so it pays to be cautious when buying a boat. Getting a professional independent survey and using a broker who provides Marine Legal Conveyancing and secure banking facilities as standard, is a small price to pay for peace of mind' concluded Gentry.
About the YBDSA:
The YBDSA is the umbrella organisation for three of the UK's leading associations of independent marine professionals, comprising ABYA, YDSA and PCA. ABYA members consist of the UK's leading yacht brokers and boat dealers. YDSA members provide design and surveying services to all recreational boats and small commercial vessels. Together the YBDSA is the UK's leading professional body in the marine sector, providing the gold standard for Surveyors, Designers, Brokers and Charterers since 1912.

The risks of getting
hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) are increased if
you breathe in tiny airborne particles formed when
rodents urinate or if you come into direct contact
with infected rodent urine, saliva, or droppings. Bites from infected rodents
also may increase your risk of developing HPS, although this is a rare method
of infection.
People who live in or visit rural areas, especially
in the western United States, have an increased risk of coming into contact
with rodents infected with hantaviruses, because the deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus) is common in these areas. Other areas
of the U.S. also have rodents that may carry hantaviruses.
Hantavirus infection also may be more likely to occur if you:

Rated 5 out of 5 by olgeezer from best summer flounder bait I have been using gulp alive swimming mullets for summer flounder for two seasons. They are great! My fishing buddies and I have tested them against traditional baits such as squid strips and they are far better. My only complaint is that I prefer the 5 inch size and they are hard to find and do not come in larger quantities such as a bucketfull.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Last Resort Charters from Beginner to pro! As a charter captain, it sometimes may be a little more difficult to produce successful trips day in and day out with clients that are new to fishing artificial baits. The 5" swimming mullet eliminates an "unsuccessful" trip. Flounder, trout, drum, and who knows what else won't stand a chance. Bump and run, gets it done. I love it!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Matersin from Quality Bait Didn't think about trying this bait out until a buddy gave me one. Used this on a drop shot and the fish were going crazy. the natural action of this bait makes it look so good in the water. Smells horrible but works like a charm. Don't let it sit in the sun or this bait will become hard.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Eng94 from Great product Purchased the gulp alive in chartreuse for Fluke fishing on the Jersey shore. It worked outstanding fish just love it. Only drawback is all the fish love it, even the ones you are not targeting. I like it because it is effective.

Picture: Los Angeles County Coroner Assistant Chief Ed Winter is surrounded by paprarzzi as he returns to his car after visiting a medical center, to obtain...
Michael Jackson's father Joe has blamed his son's aides and guards for turning the superstar into a recluse like the obsessive compulsive aviator Howard Hughes.
The Jackson clan patriarch claims he desperately tried to reach out to his son in the years before his death - but was banned by the Thriller icon's minders from making contact.
And he insists it was that group of employees who turned his son into a hermit like eccentric Hughes, who suffered a nervous breakdown while wasting away in his mansion.
He says, "His relationship was different because he was protected by the security guards. It was not only me but Katherine too. They treated him just like they did Howard Hughes.
"I knew the people weren't treating him right in the beginning but there was nothing I could do, he was his own man. All of them were cheating him."
The pop superstar passed away in his Holmby Hills home on 25 June (09) after suffering a cardiac arrest.

Taking things that are really small and painting something on them -- like The Lord's Prayer on a grain of rice -- is cool and all, but haven't we all been there? Here's a great new twist on the miniature painting craze, but with a decidedly oddball touch: a basketball scene diorama by Mexican artist Enrique Ramos, complete with players and stands full of fans, composed of painted and preserved carpenter ants. Trust us, Larry Bird and Magic Johnson -- yes, the ants are painted to look like actual players -- have rarely appeared so dynamic.

LinkedIn transformed into a better lead-generation tool
LinkedIn is going through massive changes this year — most recently, the integration of CRM features to manage contacts and schedule reminders; the purchase of Slideshare and Pulse, a talent pipeline feature for recruiters; and the removal of "Top Trending" articles in favor of exclusive influencer content.
Even if you don't have time to keep up with the deluge of changes, there are three simple best practices that many companies are still not taking advantage of for their company page on LinkedIn. You should:
1. Fill out your company profile completely — especially the products/services tab, which offers the ability to upload custom header images, YouTube videos and sidebar promotions. This is free ad space for promoting what drives revenue for your business, and a powerful opportunity to target your offerings through visuals and compelling copy. If you seed your product or service listings with keywords or phrases, it also becomes a fantastic SEO tool to increase company page views and awareness.
2. Learn to use groups effectively. When used in an authentic manner and a light-handed approach with promotion, LinkedIn groups are a wonderful way to build credibility and fill your sales pipeline with leads. Get your feet wet by searching for groups where your prospects are likely to be (groups related to local trade magazines and associations, vertical markets related to your products or services — even software user groups).
Next, share articles along with a thought leadership or opinion comment, and answer questions posted in the group that allow you to showcase your expertise. Abide by all group guidelines, but don't forget to take advantage of the "jobs" and "promotions" tabs, and share relevant updates on a regular basis.

Be your best friend, tell the truth, overuse I love you...Go to work, do your best, don't outsmart your common sense....
Okay, so I will admit, I am VERY skeptical about this, but decided- what do I have to lose? I am super busy with my job, and don't get out too much, so I thought this would be a great way to meet new people. I am a very hard-working and genuine person. I love spending time with friends, and am a HUGE Bengals fan. I love going to concerts and sporting events, and spend a lot of time volunteering for events at school, where I teach 4th grade. I think kids are the coolest people in the whole world, and wouldn't trade my job for anything. I am currently working on my Master's Degree, and think it's important that everyone in this world have a goal and a dream to work toward. If you can't go to work each day looking forward to it, why bother? I love my job and value family and friends. I have had terrible relationships, and am just looking for someone who is looking for the same things as me. I hold the "typical" woman dream that some man will sweep me off my feet and we'll live happily ever after, but who knows if it actually ever works that way? I am a big believer in fate, and think that everyone has a path they are destined to take. I am pretty shy at first, but if I feel comfortable around you, I come out of my shell pretty quickly! I would pretty much do anything for anyone, and I am excited to meet new people and see if this route actually works :) Random Facts about Me: -I teach 4th grade. -I am left handed -I have a touch of OCD (haha) -I'm kinda obsessed with Iced Tea -I love fresh flowers. And I especially love guys who sent them just because :) -Vince Vaughn is hilarious. -I've been friends with my best friend for 17 years. -I love any candy w/Peanut Butter. -I love all types of music. -I'm obsessed with gym shoes. -I'm terrified of storms (tornadoes in particular, eeek!) -Reality Shows are my weakness -I was a server all through HS and College, I'm pretty much amazing at it :) *The above is what happens when i'm bored on a Monday night, haha. Enjoy!
Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Travel/Sightseeing , Watching sports , Wine tasting
Dancing, Other types of exercise, Tennis / Racquet sports, Walking / Hiking
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I have Cats, Dogs
Although I hate to admit it, I am a reality show junkie. I love anything that involves other people's drama, hahaha (as long as it's not mine!)
I am a Bengal season ticket holder, so I enjoy going to games on Sundays with some social time somewhere downtown before. I love college football and basketball as well, UK games are amazing.
I'm a dork, I love to read. I just recently read "The Hunger Games" and will basically read anything that anyone gives me.

In Picasa 3 Essential Training, Dane Howard demonstrates how the latest upgrade of this free program from Google will allow photographers to organize, share, and edit digital photos more easily and effectively than ever before. Dane shows newcomers and experienced users how to archive and share photos from a desktop or online. Exercise files accompany the course, but using personal media is encouraged.
Next let's talk about red eye. I'm going to use an image of my own that's not located in your Exercise Files. You can apply the same technique to your own photos. Now red eye happens when the flash goes off. We've all probably seen it. And one of the things that I strongly recommend is just turn off the flash. A lot of digital cameras are extremely sensitive to light and can actually have amazing images even without the flash firing. So just take your camera out of Auto Mode and make sure the flash doesn't fire.
But Picasa has recognized that a lot of people do shoot with the flash on and they have the red eye. So to do is go ahead and click on Redeye, and what it'll do is it'll detect an area of the eye and you can start to triage your red eye directly within. So to do this click and hold the area you want to triage and it'll go through and it'll remove the red eye. So to do that it's doing some initial detection, so that you can go through and select the area of the eye that you want.
And again, everything is nondestructive. So you can go ahead and preview and apply it and remove the red eye directly from the image itself.
