I am currently working on projects involving Data Mining.
Soon I will be able to reveal more details. This will provide great benefits to a multitude of people especially my close associates and friends. As recently seen on "dataIQ" "A shortage of professionals with big data expertise is allowing those with the know how to command nearly a third more in pay – and over double the average national wage – according to a new study." "The increased demand for big data skills has already pushed professionals' average salary to £55,000 – 31% higher than the average tech position at £42,000 – with more than three quarters of posts are considered "fairly" or "very" difficult to fill. -See more at: http://www.dataiq.co.uk/news/20141031/big-data-skills-prove-profitable-young-are-not-interested#sthash.oRBm6Jem.dpuf Please watch this space.

There is much more to come… so keep in touch…
Being in the affiliate marketing business is not that hard now with the internet at your disposable. It is much easier now compared to the days when people have to make use of the telephones and other mediums of information just to get the latest updates on the way their program is coming along.
So with technology at hand, and assuming that the affiliate is working from home, a day in his or her life would sound something like this…
Upon waking up and after having breakfast, the computer is turned on to check out new developments in the network. As far as the marketer is concerned there might be new things to update and statistics to keep track on.
The site design has to be revised. The marketer knows that a well-designed site can increase sign ups from visitors. It can also help in the affiliate's conversion rates.
That done, it is time to submit the affiliate program to directories that lists affiliate programs. These directories are means to attract people in joining your affiliate program. A sure way of promoting the affiliate program.
Time to track down the sales you are getting from your affiliates fairly and accurately. There are phone orders and mails to track down. See if they are new clients checking the products out. Noting down the contact information that might be a viable source in the future.
There are lots of resources to sort out. Ads, banners, button ads and sample recommendations to give out because the marketer knows that this is one way of ensuring more sales. Best to stay visible and accessible too.
The affiliate marketer remembered that there are questions to answer from the visitors. This has to be done quickly. Nothing can turn off a customer than an unanswered email.
To prove that the affiliate is working effectively and efficiently, inquiries would have to be paid more attention on. Nobody wants to be ignored and customers are not always the most patient of all people. Quick answer that should appear professional yet friendly too.
In the process of doing all the necessities, the marketer is logged on to a chat room where he or she interacts with other affiliates and those under that same program. This is where they can discuss things on how to best promote their products.
There are things to be learned and it is a continuous process. Sharing tips and advices is a good way of showing support. There may be others out there wanting to join and may be enticed by the discussion that is going on. There is no harm in assuming what opportunities ahead.
The newsletters and ezines were updated days ago, so it is time for the affiliate marketer to see if there are some new things happening in the market. This will be written about in the marketer's publication to be distributed to the old and new customers.
These same publications are also an important tool in keeping up to date with the newly introduced products. The marketer has put up a sale and promotion that customers may want to know about. Besides, they have to keep up with the deadline of these sales written in the publications.
It is that time to show some appreciation to those who have helped the marketer in the promotions and sale increase. Nothing like mentioning the persons, their sites and the process they have done that made everything worked.
Of course, this will be published in the newsletters. Among the more important information that have been written already.
The marketer still has time to write out recommendations to those who want credible sources for the products being promoted. There is also time to post some comments on how to be a successful affiliate marketer on a site where there are lots of wannabees.
Two objectives done at the same time. The marketer gets to promote the product as well as the program they are in. Who knows, someone may be inclined to join.
Time flies. Missed lunch but is quite contented with the tasks done. Bed time….
Ok, so this may not be all done in a day. But then, this gives you an idea of how an affiliate marketer, a dedicated one that is, spends the marketing day.
Is that success looming in the distance or what?
Have a Great Day.

G'Day Joe,
I am reserving judgement on the sound at the moment. As the bike loosens up it actually sounds Ok with the stock pipe but is far from the rumble of twin Akro's on a 990. The standard bike we tested was fitted with an Akro slip on but I thought it still sounded muted? It appears as though the muffler needs to be pulled apart to get the bungs out which I guess is a sign of political correctness. Personally, I think my neighbours and other road users will appreciate the deep rumble of an appropriately piped 1190 so I am still on the hunt for a good solution. I think Remus have one available now and I have been talking to Jason Barrett who was looking to build one locally. The Barrett's sound good on Bob's bike so that may well be the path I take.
The cat to me looks as though it is seperate from the muffler, enclosed in a flared canister near the centrestand? I am guessing this is why the Akro doesn't require re-mapping on the 1190 as the main source of restriction is further back in the pipework? I think it would be easy enough to bypass if someone knew what they were doing with it (I don't but I am sure I could find someone who does). My main concern with that is mapping the bike accordingly so I might leave well enough alone for the moment.

Fougère Bengale by Parfum d'Empire
Curry, ginger and Helichrysum (Immortelle) with lavender on top. I suspect the curry not being actually present but just being recalled by the everlasting flowers that in some specific context may assume a culinary/spicy feel. Tobacco and hints of vanilla in the base joined by oakmoss. Nice and well orchestrated with just a touch of sweetness but when it comes to immortelle, I still perfer stronger compositions a-la Sables.

Burton Blunt Snowboard - WideView Larger Image

If you don't need the stiffest board with the most expensive, NASA-grade materials and instead want to invest in having the most fun possible, then we suggest you enjoy a Blunt.

Phoenix Suns
Suns' Gentry on latest lineup changes: It's worked for us
December 16, 2012: Gentry likes Dudley at small forward, Beasley at power forward
Head coach Alvin Gentry through the first eight weeks of the season has moved his players around as if they were pieces of a puzzle: What combination would fit together the best?
He appears to have settled on one as the Suns have victories in back-to-back games for the first time since late November.
"I'm comfortable right now and this is what we're going to do for awhile because I think it's worked for us," he said of playing Jared Dudley at small forward and bringing Michael Beasley off the bench as a power forward. "We've had some success so we've got to play that way and we'll see where it takes us."
Gentry has made three changes to his starting lineup since opening night. (A fourth was necessitated by an illness to Goran Dragic.)
"I like it because I think it's really helped JD," Gentry explained in moving Dudley from shooting guard where he started the season. "That's where he had his most success last year and the last couple of years here as a 3-man. To have him be able play there and play for extended minutes, I think it's helped him."
The numbers would suggest that's true.
Dudley is averaging 15 points while shooting 58 percent (25-of-43), including 40 percent (6-of-15) from three-point range in four games since returning to the starting lineup. He's scored 60 points, including a season-high 22 against Utah, over what is his best stretch of the season.
"You usually when you're playing the two (guard) you're one of the quicker guys and you're exerting more energy so the three-position is more natural (for me)," Dudley said.
The decision by Gentry to play Beasley at power forward has netted more subtle results.
"I think Michael has played pretty good at 4. He's done some things," Gentry said. "We've been able to put him in situations where I think he can be successful."
Beasley appears more comfortable and more engaged as a 4, where he's able to take advantage of his athleticism against bigger guys.
"I just feel good because I told myself to play good, whether I'm playing the 3 or the 4," he said. "It doesn't really matter to me. I just enjoy playing the game."
His opportunities have also increased according to Beasley. He just has not been able to take advantage of those opportunities.
Beasley admitted his shooting is at an "all-time low," which is accurate. His 37 percent field goal percentage is the worst of his five NBA seasons. He made three of his first four shots against Utah but then missed his last five attempts.
"My (left pinkie) finger is still kind of messed up but I'm tired of using that as an excuse," he said. "I'm going to just keep shooting. They're going to drop eventually."
Beasley's shooting, or lack thereof, is limiting his court time (three straight games playing fewer than 20 minutes) for the moment.
"He's smarter than us all," he said of Gentry. "Whoever he plays is definitely the right choice, for however long and at whatever position. All I can say is just be ready. When your name is called, be ready. Even if you only play five, ten games, just be ready because he's definitely got a plan.
"As long as it equals a �W'," Beasley added, "I'm definitely fine with it."

Sweetwater is one of 32 baseball teams who are still alive in the Class 3A high school playoffs. But in order to make it to the Sweet 16, it will have to knock off an Andrews squad that is in the playoffs for the 19th consecutive year.
That equals the number of years that Roland Herrera has been a head baseball coach, the last five of them at Sweetwater. But this is the first time in his tenure with the Mustangs to make it to the postseason.
Sweetwater (19-14) may be a "Cinderella" team, he admits, but they deserve to be here.

Did Rihanna's racy pictures catch up to her?
There was noticeably less skin on our Instagram feed today due to the fact that RiRi's Instagram account has disappeared.
When asked by E! News if the Barbados beauty was being reprimanded by the social media organization for her constant nudie pics, the company told us, "This account was mistakenly caught in one of our automated systems and very briefly disabled. We apologize for any inconvenience."
Hmmm, perhaps that was the case, however Rih's account is still inactive.
LOOK: Rihanna sizzles in two stunning Vogue Brasil covers—check them out!
When a follower goes to Rihanna's "badgalriri" Instagram account, they are greeted with a blank page that says "No posts yet" and "User not found," with a default photo of a stick figure mimicking Rihanna's look at the 2014 iHeartRadio Music Awards.
The star has yet to address the issue. E! News has reached out to her camp for comment.
Although RiRi's posts are known to be extremely NSFW (with her latest being the most scandalous of them all), a source had told E! News that her social media page is not in jeopardy. However, the outspoken songstress found a cheeky way to respond to the backlash.
First, she posted a doctored photo of her looking extra conservative with the words "Rih's next magazine cover if it was up to Instagram," and then asked fans to send in their best drawings of the Lui photo shoot—because art can't be taken down.
Maybe Rihanna's just taking a break from Instagram? What do you think is going on?

This will be our last inspection of this park! It is obvious that it will never change. There is a new Black Top road into the property but the park it self is beyond words. We inspect hundreds of parks a year and this one is on the top of the list of being the worst of the worst. The new owner and managers are not experienced in operating an RV Park. They allow very old and ran down RVs in the park with large amount of clutter to be stored around the site. It is obvious that the previous owner passed on the bad habits. All sites are in very bad condition, the electric connections are old and worn. There was no wireless signal, no cable and the park stunk of sewer gas. Both the laundry room and bathrooms are in bad condition and should be condemn. I read a previous review rating this park above a half star, I assure you that either this person is on staff here or they rated the wrong park. The entire park needs to be leveled and start all over! The only thing missing here is the faint noise of a Banjo and guitar playing in the back ground, they have the river! - rvreporterontheroad

We came here after a recommendation from some friends. We had seen some poor reviews online, but nothing current, so we decided to check it out. It is currently under new management, they have been there for three weeks. The roads have been repaired, park has been cleaned up and it was very peaceful. We had a chance to chat with the new management and they have some very modest plans for improvement. They now have Wi-Fi available and a small general store. In the new future there will also be a dog park added!! We are very excited about that! We look forward to see where they will be heading next!! They welcome all comments and are very positive to make this park, with its wonderful location, a very enjoyable park!! Good Luck!! We will be back!!! - Happy Campers Too

I am not sure if it was noisy or just really loud. The highway is on one side and train tracks on the other. Spots were kind of tight to use. No facilities were available. The price was cheap and we got what we paid for. If I am in this area again, I would drive for several hours if needed to find another place to stop for the night. - L84DLAKE
Apr 2015 - $28.00
This park was a very popular spot with transient RV'ers coming and going. A great spot to stop for a night or two with the price being right. We had an end spot near the train which did cause some noise, but just from the train itself, not from the whistle being blown which we have experienced at other park. Good location to visit many casinos. Wifi didn't really work. Satellite wasn't a problem. - tmiller505

As stated by others, site was cramped, hard to get into, and would have been difficult to find if I had not looked at Google maps overview before heading there. Had real difficulty contacting the park to make and/or change reservations. The park office phone usually wasn't answered and had to call the casino to be transferred. Stayed there one night as a stop over only. Will more than likely not go back - JohnBoyToo

I was referred to this park by another park in the area. After the first month I had to get out of there. To start let me say this, it is not an RV park! This is a mobile home park that has allowed RVs to stay long term. I was here on some medical issues and I witnessed things going on at night that was very bad. Vehicles were broken into, this is a very bad area of Bossier City. Several Police responses, loud music and teenage kids walking around all hours of the night. They do not offer any type of incentive whatsoever! You have to get your own electric, cable and if you want Internet you must sign a contract. They are full of your typical people that hang out in mobile home parks. The electrical was terrible and when it rained my rig actually sunk in the mud so bad I have to leave very quickly! And as far as the so-called Criminal Check. I gave them information and they did not even check my I.D. By the way, I had to pay for the so-called check and I thought it was strange especially since I gave them a false birth date. The Pool was so tiny that if there are two people in it it is crowded. This is not a RV park in any manner and should not be listed here. I would question the first and only entry, sounds as if they used it as an advertisement for their "Trailer Park"! - judgemathewss

My wife and I consider ourselves polite people. We full time RV since I retired. We needed a place in the Shreveport area and this was the only place that was available. Upon arrival we soon discovered this is not an RV Park but a very small and narrow road trailer park. Several vehicles parked everywhere. We were concerned about the area so we asked a police officer that was exiting the park if this was a safe place for retired people to stay. He stated "Only if you want to get robbed"! Then he laughed and drove out. The manager was not in. We waited for 45 minutes, during that time we spoke with some residents that were sitting in the pool area. The pool is very small but appeared to be clean. The residents informed us that all of the trailers are rented by people working in the area. No laundry facilities, no cable, Wi-Fi or anything else. We walked around the property only to hear someone screaming at another in a trailer. We looked at the site and there is not way we could fit in the site, the turns are so tight that it would be impossible and with all of the cars parked in the street. I decided to stay the one night and depart very early. I was very concerned, there were young kids out at two in the morning walking around, we were not comfortable at all. We have canceled our plans to stay in the area and have decided to move on to Florida. - marcwtomas

My wife wanted to stay in the Shreveport area to visit old friends for at least a month. We called all of the parks and this is the only one that had a space. This is prior to any reviews posted. I have to "DITTO" the other reviews that reflect a POOR rating. The review giving this place 5 stars sounds like an advertisement more than anything else. This is not an RV park by any means. They are way over their heads! It is simply a mobile home park that has the same issues as other mobile home parks do. If I wanted to live like this I would buy a mobile home. I elected to own a nice RV to travel in. During our three week stay our rig was damaged three different times by children throwing rocks, riding bicycles, and just general being children. There are no boundaries for the kids there, they are allowed to run wild all day and all night! Some times in to the early morning I witnessed children out at 2:00 AM. The surrounding area is one that you do not want to go out at night! Our neighbor has several tools stolen from his truck and I lost a hitch and ball for my tow vehicle. Again, we stayed here because this was the only place at the time. Running a RV park is much different than running a mobile home park and it is evident they will not make the transition very easily, if ever! Now for the site specifics. Very noisy, power was always in the red, we have three A/C's and we were lucky to run one with in conjunction with the other items such as TV, water heater, refrigerator, etc. They offer no amenities. The swimming pool is very small and with all the kids there we were never allowed to use it. The sites are very congested and cars are parked everywhere. We witnessed police responses on a number of occasions to domestic issues. We will never drop our standards like this again, it is a relief to be out of there and on the road again! - rvreporterontheroad

WASHINGTON (AP) The Supreme Court is refusing to intervene in the controversy surrounding the National Security Agency, rejecting a call from a privacy group to stop NSA from collecting the telephone records of millions of Verizon customers in the United States.
While the justices on Monday declined to get involved in this issue, other lawsuits on the topic are making their way through the lower courts around the country.
But in the case at hand, the Electronic Privacy Information Center bypassed lower courts and said that only the Supreme Court can overrule a decision by the secretive Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, whose order allowing NSA to get the records cannot be reviewed by other federal courts.

BEIRUT: An official from the Kurdish zone Thursday said the regime would not set up polling stations in "Syrian Kurdistan."
Ilham Ahmad, from the Democratic Society Movement, said Kurdish groups would deal only with "powers that recognize" their rights, according to the Kurdnet news site.
Ahmad, whose party is one of a half-dozen that rule the self-rule zone along the Turkish border, was asked about the poll, expected to be won by President Bashar Assad.
Citing Ahmad, the report said that "the Kurds will not view the elections as legitimate and will not allow the regime to open polling stations in any areas under Kurdish control."
Observers believe the government will manage to distribute ballot boxes in parts of the cities of Hassakeh and Qamishli, where it retains a partial presence.

What you need to know:
The offense wasn't as consistent, efficient, or as
effective as it was in 2008, but it still finished 21st in the
nation averaging 432 yards per game thanks to Todd Reesing and a
passing game that averaged 306 yards per game. Reesing returns
and should put up even better numbers than last year when he set
school records in completion percentage (67%) and yards 3,888
yards thanks to his receivers. Dezmon Briscoe is becoming a
special talent while Kerry Meier is a NFL caliber H-Back who'll
catch 90 passes. The problem is the O line that struggled last
year and now has to replace the interior. The tackles will be
fine, but there has to be a push for the running game and better
overall pass protection. It'll be running back by committee with
Jake Sharp getting the first look, but with Jocques Crawford
looking to be the main man early on if he's out of the team's
Passing: Todd Reesing
329-495, 3,888 yds, 32 TD, 13 INT
Rushing: Jake Sharp
186 carries, 860 yds, 12 TD
Receiving: Kerry Meier
97 catches, 1,045 yds, 8 TD
Projected Starter:
He might not fit the mold of a
high-octane passing quarterback, but senior
Todd Reesing is about
to close out his career as the best passer to ever play at
Kansas. He's only 5-11 and 200 pounds, he not necessarily a
runner, and he doesn't have a rocket arm. However, he's a
pinpoint passer when it comes to getting his targets on the
move, and he's a pure gamer. Tough as nails, he managed to fight
his way through injuries at the end of last season to beat
Missouri in a classic with 375 yards and four touchdowns. Then
he healed up in time to beat up Minnesota with 313 yards and
four touchdowns to close out his second straight season with 30+
touchdown passes, and he'll be a lock for a third if he stays
healthy. He struggled a bit at times against the better teams
last season, but he still finished with tremendous, KU-record
3,888-yard, 32-touchdown season with four rushing scores and 13
interceptions. While he's fine in the pocket, he's better when
he gets on the move and makes things happen with his creativity.
While he'll take off when needed, he's a bomber who's at his
best when he can get into a rhythm. With the receiving corps he
has returning, he should be in for a tremendous season.
Projected Top
Reserve: There are few more interesting players in the
Big 12 than senior Kerry
Meier. The 6-3, 220-pound wide receiver started off his
career as a quarterback, and will serve as the backup again,
with 1,542 career passing yards with 17 touchdowns and ten
interceptions. He has also run for six scores and is also the
backup punter. Beaten out by Reesing for the starting
quarterback job in 2007, Meier has made himself into a top
target who'll only move back under center in an extreme
emergency. He has a good arm, but his strength as a quarterback
is his mobility. While he's not the bomber that Reesing is, he
can step in and keep the offense moving if needed.
Pushing for playing
time this season in mop-up mode is
Kale Pick, a redshirt freshman who got to school early last year and
has had more than a year to prepare. The star of the scout team,
the 6-2, 200-pounder has the athleticism to grow into the type
of quarterback who can keep Reesing's production going next
year. He has been asked to do even more in practices, and after
a rough start, he came through with a nice spring game showing
crispness and accuracy. Watch Out For ...
Reesing to have his best year yet. With a veteran receiving
corps that knows exactly what it's doing, Reesing should be able
to exploit the mismatches more than ever. Expect the success of
the last few years to continue with plenty of yards after the
catch with Reesing doing his job to get the ball to his targets
where they can do something with it.Strength:
Todd Reesing. In a conference with Colt McCoy, Sam Bradford, and
other big-time statistical stars, Reesing belongs in the
discussion among the best Big 12 passers with 7,578 yards, 68
touchdowns and 23 interceptions. KU will win at least two games
this year simply because its quarterback is better than the
other team's quarterback.Weakness: Backup
inexperience. While Meier can step in and play, it would be a
huge hit for the KU offense to take him away from the receiving
corps. That means Pick might have to be ready to hit the ground
running to make sure the best players are on the field in the
correct positions.Outlook: It'll take a limb
to fall off for Reesing to be taken out of a game, and he'll
have to do everything possible to stay on the field. As long as
he's under center, the Jayhawks will put up huge offensive
numbers and will be in every game. He has to guard against
pressing too much, but with his experience and knowledge of the
attack, and with Meier a nice emergency option, the situation is
strong.Rating: 9.5
Running Backs
Projected Starter:
It doesn't seem like senior
Jake Sharp is necessarily wanted as the team's top running option,
the KU offense usually likes a 200+ pound thumper, but he turned
out to be the team's best back after lobbying for more work and
earning it when he got his shot. The Honorable Mention All-Big
12 back led the team with 860 yards and 12 touchdowns while
catching 25 passes for 283 yards and a score. His production
came in spurts with a 118-yard, three touchdown day against
Colorado and a 181-yard, four touchdown day against Kansas
State, so the question remains whether or not he can be a back
who carries the ball 20 times a game. The coaching staff gave
him the chance late in the year, and he produced despite not
getting much room to move. He's a smart, quick, versatile back
who'd be at his best as a third down player and a change-of-pace
runner, but for now, he's the main man.
Projected Top
Reserves: It seemed like a foregone conclusion that JUCO
transfer Jocques Crawford
was going to come in and take the team by storm. After all,
he was the 2007 junior college offense player of the year after
leading the nation with 1,935 yards and 19 touchdowns for Cisco
JC. But he wasn't quite ready for prime time yet as he struggled
to get more than a backup and special team role finishing with
232 yards and four touchdowns. At 6-1 and 230 pounds, he has the
size to go along with excellent speed. He had problems in the
past with a knee injury, and his status for the season is in
question after being suspended for violating team rules, but if
he's in the mix (and that's not a given), don't be shocked if he
turns into a breakout player.Sophomore
Rell Lewis is a 5-10,
199-pound speedster who has only seen time on special teams so
far. He made three tackles in his first season, but now he's
expected to be used as a variety of ways as the third back, and
possibly the No. 2 man, after a good offseason.True
freshman Toben Opurum will bring the power the
team didn't have last year. The 6-2, 235-pound power back has
good speed to go along with his size and should be fantastic
around the goal line and in short yardage situations. Versatile,
he can also catch a little bit.6-2, 222-pound senior
Angus Quigley
finished second on the team with 309 yards and three
touchdowns, but he wasn't able to take the starting job by
the horns and was eventually relegated to a backup role. He
was still in the rotation late in the season before being
moved over to linebacker just before the bowl game. While
his move to the defensive side will be permanent, he could
switch back over to offense whenever needed.
The offense almost never uses a
fullback, so 6-2, 232-pound junior
Drew Dudley will mostly be used as a part-time linebacker and on
special teams. He has 25 tackles over the last two years,
but now he'll be a full-time offensive player used as a
blocker and an occasional short-yardage runner.
Watch Out For ... Crawford … maybe. The light
bulb never went on for the former JUCO star in his first
year in Lawrence, but if all is fine off the field, he'll
get more work and more chances to become the main man. The
offensive line is in a state of flux and won't give him too
much room to move early on, but he has too many skills to
not be a major player.Strength: A
rotation. In KU's perfect world, a big back like Crawford
carries the ball 250 times this year and becomes the stud
the offense can work around. What's more likely to happen
will be a combination of backs with Crawford, Sharp, and
possibly a third option like redshirt freshman
Tyler Hunt or
Lewis splitting time depending on the situation.Weakness:
Proven home runs. There's plenty of speed in the KU
backfield, but the longest run last year was a 47-yarder
from Sharp. The team averaged just 3.7 yards per carry and
almost never came up with a big run to help out the passing
game. That put even more pressure on Todd Reesing to make
things happen downfield. Outlook: For the
Kansas offense to be at its best, it needs Crawford to be
another Jon Cornish or Brandon McAnderson. However, with a
veteran back like Sharp in the mix, there will be more of a
running-back-by-committee approach. At the moment, this is a
good group of backs, but it needs Crawford to shine for the
unit to be great. Helped by the running of Reesing, KU will
finish with over 1,700 rushing yards, but it would like to
be closer to 2,000 to balance out the attack.
Rating: 7
Projected Starters:
Dezmon Briscoe
turned out to be the team's breakthrough player of the
season finishing with 92 catches for 1,407 yards and 15
touchdowns highlighted by a 12-catch, 269-yard, two
touchdown game against Oklahoma and an Insight Bowl MVP
performance with 14 catches for 201 yards and three scores
against Minnesota. The 6-3, 200-pounder earned Second Team
All-Big 12 honors as he grew into a deadly all-around
threat. With his size, defenders bounce off of him if they
don't wrap up. With his speed, he's able to get by most of
the slower defensive backs as long as he can beat the jam.
While he's growing into a No. 1 target, he makes the most
noise when defenses have to concentrate on other areas.
Briscoe destroys single coverage. While Briscoe led
the way in scoring, senior
Kerry Meier led the team in catches with 97 grabs for 1,045 yards
and eight touchdowns. The former quarterback has grown into
a tremendous receiver and an NFL-caliber H-Back at 6-3 and
220 pounds with excellent speed. He was consistent all year
long, and then he was dominant late in the year once
everyone started to worry about Briscoe with 24 catches for
219 yards and three scores in the final games against
Missouri and Minnesota. A big, physical target, he'll be
used in a variety of way and he'll be Todd Reesing's go-to
target on key plays. Not to be ignored is 6-3,
187-pound junior Johnathan Wilson, a big, athletic
home run hitter who benefitted from all the attention paid
to the other targets. While he only averaged 13.3 yards per
catch after averaging 17.3 yards per grab in 2007, he got
into the end zone with three touchdown catches on 43 grabs.
He'll have a few double-digit catch games this year and will
have at least two 50+ scoring grabs.Sophomore
Tim Biere turned
into the team's top tight end as his true freshman season
went on working in four-wide sets and being used as a
blocker. The 6-4, 243-pounder made six catches for 65 yards,
and now he'll be asked to do even more. He's a big target
with soft hands and decent route running ability.
Projected Top Reserves: 5-11, 192-pound senior
Raimond Pendleton
will get the first look at replacing Dexton Fields in the
No. 4 receiver role. Pendleton made four catches for 29
yards last season in mop-up duty, getting one start against
Sam Houston State, and now he'll get a longer look as a
quick option who'll be great in the open field. He can be
used as a punt returner if needed.Working to be more
involved as a tight end and a big receiver is
A.J. Steward, a
6-4, 228-pound sophomore who made a catch for six yards
against Colorado. He came to Kansas as a quarterback and is
taking the Kerry Meier route to grow into a regular target.
While he'll see some time at tight end, he'll work mostly as
a tough inside receiver.6-3, 252-pound junior
Bradley Dedeaux
was supposed to take over the tight end job, but he only
made two catches for nine yards. A top talent coming out of
high school, he has yet to come close to playing up to his
immense potential. He has the size and the blocking skills,
and now he has to prove he can be a consistent receiver.
At some point,
Roderick Harris needs to play a big role. The 6-2,
200-pound JUCO superstar didn't do anything on offense but
saw time on special teams. He's a phenomenal athlete with
elite speed, but he has yet to show it off in any way. He'll
get a shot to show what he can do on the outside.
Watch Out For ... Wilson. It was a pick your
poison situation for defenses when it came to Meier and
Briscoe, and it'll be even more so going into this year.
It'll be up to Wilson to make defenses pay, and he'll have
the opportunities to do it facing plenty of single coverage.
Strength: The Meier/Briscoe combination. These
two might combine for 200 catches this season. Meier has
excellent speed for his size and will move the chains, but
it's Briscoe who has the potential to be truly special.
Weakness: Depth. So much work was going to
Briscoe and Meier, and occasionally to Wilson, that there
wasn't any passes to go to anyone else. While this isn't a
bad situation considering how good the starters are, KU has
to identify playmaking wide receivers who could be able to
step in if needed.Outlook:
Meier and
Briscoe might not be
considered All-Americans by anyone, but they should be.
They'll be among the most productive receivers in America
and they'll take turns coming up with huge games. Meier is
an established, reliable target, while the sky's the limit
for Briscoe, who's already good as is. More established
depth is needed and a receiving tight end needs to emerge,
but this is a good situation overall. Rating:
Offensive Linemen
Projected Starters:
6-3, 311-pound sophomore
Jeremiah Hatch came up with a solid freshman season starting out at
right tackle before moving to the left side for the second half
of the season. While he struggled with his overall consistency
and was average in pass protection, he has the potential to grow
into a solid all-around blocker after moving to center this
spring. RRedshirt freshman
Tanner Hawkinson was one of the finds of spring ball,
playing well enough to earn a long look on the left side. While
the former tight end is hardly a sure-thing to win the starting
job, he's tall, athletic, and got bigger after starting out as a
6-6, 245-pound spring-bean and getting up to 260 pounds.
Starting again on the right side will be
Jeff Spikes, a 6-6,
314-pound sophomore who was the best of the young tackles. He
started every game, getting the call on the left time for the
first four games before moving over to the right side. He had
the unenviable task of moving over from Anthony Collins early
on, but he turned out to be better on the other side when he
wasn't as responsible to handle the killer speed rushers.
Pushing for one of the open guard spots will be
John Williams a huge option who'll be a key factor in the rotation
if he doesn't win a starting gig. Williams is a 6-4, 338-pound
redshirt freshman with excellent strength.6-3, 292-pound
Sal Capra was one of
the team's top backup guards last year, seeing time in every
game. Good enough to play either guard spot, he'll likely get
the first look at right guard in place of Chet Hartley. A
top-shelf recruit who was a high school star out of Kansas City,
the time is now for the junior to shine.Projected
Top Reserves: Taking over will be
Brad Thorson, a 6-3, 290-ound transfer from Wisconsin who wasn't
able to do much on offense, but had a role on special teams.
He'll have to fight to keep the job, but he's the most natural
center in the mix. The other big loss up front is
All-Big 12 left guard Adrian Mayes, a stalwart on the line for
the last few seasons.
Carl Wilson, a 6-4, 288-pound junior will get the long look
at taking over the job. While he's not a space-eater and he's
not all that big, he can move just enough to be decent at being
used in a variety of ways. 6-4, 285-pound redshirt
freshman Trevor
Marrongelli was one of the team's scout team stars last
year. While he's built more like a tackle, he's a guard who'll
push for time at both spots on the inside. He's athletic and
tough; he should grow into a top starter in the next few years.
A vital backup all year long at right tackle was
Ben Leuken, a 6-6, 300-pound true sophomore who saw time in every
game and can be counted on for the running game. He's not quite
quick enough to be a steady left tackle, but he'll hardly be a
liability if he has to move to the other side. First, he has to
get back healthy after suffering a few injuries in a car
accident.The team's key backup tackle will be junior
Ian Wolfe, an athlete 6-5, 295-pound veteran who saw a little bit of
time. He has beefed up over the last few years and should be
ready to step in at left tackle. He has a little bit of starting
experience and is decent in pass protection.The team's
most interesting prospect for the O line is
Nathan D'Cunha, a 6-6, 307-pound Australian who was brought in to be
part of the starting mix if he was able to surprise, but he
redshirted. A fantastic athlete, he's extremely raw with
tremendous upside coming out of Santa Barbara CC.
Watch Out For ... Shuffling on the inside. The
tackles are set, but the guards have to be found with four
players in the mix. Thorson has potential at center, but he's
hardly a given. The interior of the line won't be settled until
fall.Strength: The tackles. They struggled in
their first season in starting spots, but they were redshirt
freshmen. Spikes has the potential to be special, while
Hawkinson is a good one who should be far better with more reps.
Weakness: Production. The line struggled
throughout last year in all phases, failing to get enough of a
push for the ground game and having problems in pass protection.
Now the interior of the line has to be replaced … that's not a
plus.Outlook: The line struggled to keep Todd
Reesing upright after finishing 97th in the nation in
sacks allowed and it didn't do enough for the ground game paving
the way for 127 yards per game. The outside will be solid in
time, Hatch and Spikes are good ones to build around. The
interior of the line needs to find starters, but there are
options.Rating: 6.5

text: It requires a measure of intelligence and composure to play center in the NFL, and Jonathan Goodwin fits the profile. He's sharp, meticulous and, by all accounts, keeps his wits about him amid the customary mayhem on the line of scrimmage. That's not to suggest the leader of the 49ers' offensive line doesn't occasionally raise his voice. His job stretches beyond snapping the ball to Alex Smith and blocking the behemoth across from him. Goodwin also must ensure his fellow offensive linemen know their assignments and work in concert.

City not taking sides in funding suit
School construction money at center of dispute
The city of Oxnard appears to be changing its mind about what to do with $15.5 million in school construction funds the city manager previously said might go to a developer instead of the Oxnard School District.
"The city of Oxnard is not here to say that we are in favor of either party at this point," Mayor Tom Holden said during Tuesday's City Council meeting.
Councilman Tim Flynn said Wednesday that the city should not take sides in the dispute between the school district and developer D.R. Horton Los Angeles Holding Co. Inc. over money intended to build a school in the Seabridge development. The neighborhood is next to Channel Islands Harbor.
The district filed suit over the money June 11, listing the city of Oxnard and D.R. Horton as respondents.
Rick Miller, the district's superintendent, said Wednesday that Holden had framed the issue "appropriately, that this is an issue between the schools and the developer."
"I believe the court will give us a timely answer," he said. A hearing date has not been set.
School officials said they decided to sue after City Manager Ed Sotelo notified them in May that he intended to transfer $7 million in school construction funds for the Seabridge neighborhood to D.R. Horton and might hand over the entire $15.5 million paid in fees by homeowners in the upscale development.
The money, which is controlled by the city, is held in a community facilities district fund.
Sotelo is on vacation and could not be reached for comment.
Alan Holmberg, an assistant city attorney, said D.R. Horton's position is that it already has paid the school district $7 million under a separate impact mitigation agreement, and that the school money in the community facilities district fund should be given to the company.
D.R. Horton spokeswoman Jessica L. Hansen issued the following statement Tuesday: "We look forward to the opportunity to have the Oxnard School District lawsuit resolved by an impartial judge. In the meantime, D.R. Horton is fully committed to supporting the needs of the Oxnard School District by honoring its contractual obligations under the parties' existing agreement, which to date has included payment of over $6 million in impact fees."
Holden said Wednesday he first heard about the district's suit two weeks ago, and he did not know the basis for Sotelo's intention to hand over the money to D.R. Horton.
City Attorney Gary Gillig said he could not discuss any advice he might have given Sotelo about the matter, citing attorney-client privilege.
Councilman Tim Flynn said Wednesday that he had not been informed by Sotelo about the dispute and that this was something he and other council members should have been notified about.
Councilman John Zaragoza said he had no comment on the matter, and the two other council members did not respond to calls for comment.
If the district does not get the $15.5 million, it would be very difficult to build a school in the Seabridge area, said Yuri Calderon, the district's general counsel.
The district has an option to buy 6 acres within the development for the school, and the city has an option to buy 3 acres for sports and recreational facilities that would be shared with the district.
The current construction estimate for a school for 600 to 1,000 children at Seabridge is about $30 million, Calderon said.
Calderon contends the impact mitigation agreement has nothing to do with the community facilities district money.
Because the amounts payable by developers to school districts under impact mitigation agreements are limited by state law, it is not uncommon for community facilities districts to be created to cover the full cost of school construction, he said.

Terrific Gem Proof 1850 Three Cent Silver1850 P3CS Three Cent Silver, Judd-125 Original, Pollock-147, R.4, PR65 NGC.
Judd-125 Original
Judd-125 Original
Design. The obverse has a Liberty cap with resplendent rays surrounding. LIBERTY is on the bottom part of the cap, and the date 1850 below. A palm branch encircles the entire reverse to form a wreath, enclosing the numeral III. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA rings the rim. Struck in silver with a plain edge.
Commentary. A similar design was employed in 1836 for gold dollar patterns (Judd-67) and for a Mint medal celebrating the first coinage on a steam press. Both borrow heavily from Mexican silver coins of the early to mid-1800s, including the half real, one real, two, four, and eight reales, all with a Cap and Sunburst design that first appeared in the 1820s, for example on the KM-374.10 Mexico City two reales of 1825. Mexican coinage circulated widely in the United States during this era and may have directly influenced the Mint's decision to replicate the popular Cap and Sunburst design motif. As the old saying goes, "Imitation is the greatest form of flattery."
Physical Description. This stunning Gem has beautiful original "skin" in shades of silver accented with high-point peach and ice-blue shadings. The date shows the characteristic slanted 5, a favorite of Mint Engraver James B. Longacre. Simply a terrific coin. NGC Census: 4 in PR65, 1 finer. PCGS Population: 1 in 65, none finer (12/08).

A turducken is the ultimate Thanksgiving bird. Actually it is three birds, a de-boned chicken stuffed into a de-boned duck stuffed into a de-boned turkey.
Nesting birds inside one another was first documented by the English in the 18th century with the Yorkshire Christmas pie, a dish only enjoyed by the wealthy, which consisted of five different birds layered into one another and baked in a crust.
Now, turduckens are popular in the American South, especially in Cajun country. One of the first butcher shops to commercially produce turduckens was Hebert's Specialty Meats in Maurice, Louisiana. They sell around 5,000 birds around Thanksgiving. You can still purchase a turducken from Hebert's Specialty Meats with prices beginning at $59.95. They will ship their products to anywhere in the country.
Maybe this year it's time to start a new tradition.

prev | next
(a) This part prescribes regulations in accordance with section 4116(c) of the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA 90) (Pub. L. 101-380). The regulations will reduce the risk of oil spills from laden, single hull tankers over 5,000 GT by requiring that these tankers be escorted by at least two suitable escort vessels. The escort vessels will be immediately available to influence the tankers' speed and course in the event of a steering or propulsion equipment failure, thereby reducing the possibility of groundings or collisions.
(b) The regulations in this part establish minimum escort vessel requirements. Nothing in these regulations should be construed as relieving the master of a tanker from the duty to operate the vessel in a safe and prudent manner, taking into account the navigational constraints of the waterways to be traversed, other vessel traffic, and anticipated weather, tide, and sea conditions, which may require reduced speeds, greater assistance from escort vessels, or other operational precautions.

Smart grid equals higher growth, new study reveals
By Jesse Berst
Anyone looking for proof that smart grid is good for cities need look no further than a new study from real estate and development giant Jones Lang LaSalle. When researchers compared smart grid cities with North American averages, they found that connected cities have:
- GDP growth 0.7% higher
- Unemployment 1.0% lower
- Office occupancy rates 2.5% higher
Cities that invest in smart grid technology and infrastructure, and that implement programs to enable energy-efficient corporate operations, are winning the competition for new businesses and job growth," said Dan Probst, Chairman, Energy and Sustainability Services, Jones Lang LaSalle.
So here's something your utility can wave around the next time an advocacy group claims that smart meters and smart grid are an evil conspiracy. Explain that the evidence shows the smart grid is a path to economic growth and jobs.

A frequent keynoter at industry events in the U.S. and abroad, he also serves on advisory committees for Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and the Institute for Electric Efficiency.

Jones Lang LaSalle's "Connected City" Study Ties Cities' Smart Grid Use to Economic Drivers for CRE Health
Success of Jones Lang LaSalle's IntelliCommand(SM) energy and facility management system underscores cost and efficiency advantages of "Connected City" companies and cities
ORLANDO, Fla. and SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- A "Connected City" study by Jones Lang LaSalle revealed a correlation between municipal investment and application of smart grid technologies and three key economic indicators of the health of the commercial real estate ("CRE") industry: strong employment, GDP growth, and positive office market occupancy. When Jones Lang LaSalle's researchers compared "Connected City" smart grid cities with North American averages, they found that connected cities have an annual GDP growth rate that is 0.7 percent higher, an unemployment rate that is a full percentage point lower, and office occupancy rates 2.5 percent higher than less advanced cities.
"Cities that invest in smart grid technology and infrastructure, and that implement programs to enable energy-efficient corporate operations, are winning the competition for new businesses and job growth," said Dan Probst, Chairman, Energy and Sustainability Services, Jones Lang LaSalle. "This correlation speaks to the value of strong relationships between public sector infrastructure custodians and power suppliers and the responsibilities of private businesses to be smart users of energy and to work together to drive productivity improvements at both the city and individual corporation level."
What Makes a "Connected City"?
A smart grid is a power delivery system that uses advanced information technology to improve the effectiveness and sustainability of energy production and distribution, as explained by Jones Lang LaSalle researcher Christian Beaudoin in this video.
To evaluate the impact of smart grid investment on economic performance, Beaudoin compared the economic performance of connected cities with North American averages. He began with a list of Smart Grid Cities from U.S. News & World Report, identified according to a combination of regulation, financial commitments, time-of-use tariffs, reverse billing options and smart metering that enable companies and residents to manage energy usage more effectively. The 10 cities were then compared as a group with national averages for employment, GDP growth and office market occupancy, as demonstrated in Figure One.
"The Smart Grid Cities were chosen on the basis of their investments in smart grid technology," according to Beaudoin, Jones Lang LaSalle Vice President and Director of Americas Corporate Research. "Their collective strong economic performance should be of interest to corporations locating new operations, as well as municipalities considering an investment in smart grid technologies.

Smart Grids, Smart Corporate Energy Users
But what is a smart grid without a smart user? The vast majority of a city's urban fabric is comprised of buildings owned or leased by private entities. To realize the full potential of smart grid technology, there has emerged a new approach to building automation and integrated facilities management, where data is aggregated across an entire portfolio, providing insights into achieving optimal performance. Remote, continuous monitoring of facility energy use provides the ability to effectively leverage connectivity with a smart grid to reduce energy cost and carbon footprint. In this way, on-the-ground service and automation technology offered through programs like the IntelliCommandSM platform provide a strategic interface with municipal smart grid technology.
Integrated facilities management systems that enable real-time energy use monitoring can make it possible for corporations to better manage their use of the public grid, achieving cost savings and carbon footprint reduction by proactively optimizing the power drawn off the smart grid. These systems make it possible to extend the benefits of the Smart Grid beyond the public infrastructure, and into privately held real estate
These benefits are already widely anticipated. Today at the CoreNet Global Summit in Orlando, corporate real estate executives are gathering to look at top current corporate real estate and facility management trends, including the evolving role of buildings and smart grid technologies. In the recent Corporate Real Estate 2020 research, CoreNet Global experts predict that by the year 2020, buildings will be contributors to the grid, not just consumers of energy. It will require both smart grid infrastructure and efficiently managed corporate facilities to achieve that synergy.
Similarly, tomorrow at the launch of the annual Meeting of the Minds conference in San Francisco, stakeholders from the public, private and non-profit sectors are gathering to discuss smart grid and other related issues and technologies. Speakers from Cisco, Oracle and other companies, including Jones Lang LaSalle's workplace and technology expert Peter Miscovich, will address the intersection of space, sustainability and the future of work.
A leader in the facilities outsourcing field, Jones Lang LaSalle's Corporate Solutions business helps corporations improve the cost, efficiency and performance of their national, regional or global real estate portfolios by creating outsourcing partnerships to manage and execute a range of services. This service delivery capability helps create new client relationships, particularly as companies turn to the outsourcing of their real estate activity as a way to manage expenses and enhance productivity and profitability.
