This Week In Fastpitch
EMOTIONAL HOME TOURNAMENT: Marshall University played host to its Spring Softball Classic last weekend, the team's first home contests of the year and the first home games since the tragic death of sophomore shortstop Dana Black, who died February 27. Marshall players wore Black's initials and jersey number (5) on their helmets, wrist bands and socks. A moment of silence was observed in between games in Black's honor. The team is dedicating the 2002 season to Black's memory.
Marshall head coach wishes to thank NFCA members and the entire softball community for the support given to Marshall softball.
"Dana was a special blessing to all of our lives and she will remain in our hearts forever. On behalf of Marshall softball, I would like to extend our deepest gratitude to everyone for the outpouring of expression of sympathy over these past few weeks. Please continue to pray for the family of Dana Black and our softball program."
Coach Stanton also has a message to all coaches about their players.
"Dana had a heart of a lion and was a special gift to my life and our entire Marshall softball family. Her loss has prompted me to encourage us all as coaches to reflect on the blessings of our players. As coaches, we understand the importance of developing and maximizing our team's ability on the field. However, at a time like this, we are reminded of the value of each unique individual and the gift of life."
The NFCA's thoughts and prayers are with the Marshall softball team and Dana Black's family.
TITAN(IC) TURNAROUND: Cal State Fullerton was ranked No. 10 in the USA Today/NFCA Division I Preseason Top 25, but the Titans were only 8-8 and ranked No. 17 after the NFCA Leadoff Classic in late February. Since then, Cal State Fullerton (27-9) has won 19 of its last 20 games, including 18 in a row. The lone loss came against top-ranked UCLA (February 27), with whom the Titans split a doubleheader. Eleven of the Titans' 19 wins during this stretch have come against teams that were ranked or received votes in the Top 25. Cal State Fullerton capped its current streak by posting a perfect 7-0 mark at its own Kia Klassic. The Titans defeated Texas 2-0 in the championship game as Jenny Topping's walk-off two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth was the game-winner. Ironically, Cal State Fullerton head coach Michelle Gromacki went up against her former Titan battery-mate and current Longhorn head coach Connie Clark in the title game.
SPEAKING OF TOPPING...: Jenny Topping's game-winning home run in the championship game of the Kia Klassic capped a phenomenal tournament for the two-time All-American junior catcher. Topping hit .696 (16-for-23) with 11 runs scored and 13 runs batted in. She homered in five of Cal State Fullerton's seven games at the tournament and finished with six round-trippers for the week. She hit safely in all seven games, including three-hit games against Rutgers, New Mexico and No. 6 Oklahoma. She drove in four runs against Rutgers and had four two-RBI performances. She also had two doubles and walked four times for a .741 on-base percentage and a 1.545 slugging percentage. For the season, Topping is hitting .522 with seven home runs and 19 RBI.
MATADORS SHIFT INTO OVERDRIVE AT KIA KLASSIC: Cal State Northridge enjoyed a successful run at last weekend's Kia Klassic, posting a 4-1 record at the tournament, including a 4-3 win over then-No. 2 Arizona. Freshman pitcher Jenny Wheeler retired all eight batters she faced -- five by strikeout -- as she picked up the win in relief. She also pitched complete game shutouts against Notre Dame and Utah. The Matadors (18-11) have won 11 of their last 14 games.
ATLANTIC SUN STREAKS: First-year softball team Central Florida set an Atlantic Sun softball record with 21 consecutive victories from February 8 through March 14. The Golden Knights are currently 27-7. However, as the saying goes, "records were meant to be broken." Just two days after UCF saw its winning streak snapped, Stetson won a pair of games to extend its new conference-record winning streak to 23. The Hatters won two more games Wednesday to bring the winning streak to 25 and counting. Stetson (30-4) has not lost since falling to Tennessee 2-0 on February 10.
HUSKERS JOIN "RAY STEVENS CLUB" (I.E., ANOTHER STREAK): Nebraska is yet another team on a record winning streak. The Huskers' 3-1 win over Creighton Tuesday extended No. 4 Nebraska's school record winning streak to 20 games. The Huskers (26-5) have not lost since falling 5-2 to Illinois-Chicago in the opening game of the NFCA Leadoff Classic on February 22. The win took place in the Huskers' first-ever game at Bowlin Stadium in Lincoln, Neb. Nebraska's win streak was to have been put to the test Thursday as the Huskers were scheduled to open Big 12 play with a doubleheader against No. 9 Oklahoma at Norman, Okla. However, the games were canceled due to inclement weather and will not be rescheduled. Nebraska will open conference play with a three-game series Saturday and Sunday at Oklahoma State
MUSKIES' STREAK ENDS: In 2000, Muskingum set a Division III record with a 33-game winning streak. Last year, the Muskies broke their own record with a season-ending 34-game winning streak, capped by their first national championship. Muskingum extended its winning streak to 35 games with a season-opening 5-4 victory over Simpson, but fell to Lake Forest 1-0 to end the streak.
STANFORD BENEFITS FROM IDLE WEEK: Perhaps the key to success is not to play. Stanford (26-2) was idle last week, but the Cardinal moved ahead of Arizona to the No. 2 spot in this week's USA Today/NFCA Division I Top 25. Arizona went 3-2 at last weekend's Kia Klassic. Stanford is back in action this week, but top-ranked UCLA is off due to winter quarter exams. Is there a position higher than unanimous No. 1?
WEST FLORIDA SAILING ALONG: West Florida had high expectations when the season started, particularly with a No. 6 ranking in the USA Today/NFCA Division II Preseason Top 25. But an uncharacteristic 2-7 start bounced the Argonauts out of the top 25. However, West Florida appears to have righted the ship as the Argonauts have won 24 of their last 28 games to improve to 26-11.
DEJA VU FOR WILDCATS?: Last year, Villanova jumped out to a 12-2 start, had a 21-game winning streak during the season and finished 43-10. Heading into conference play this weekend, Villanova is currently 12-2.
COUGARS VAULT INTO TOP 10: Columbia College (Mo.) was unranked in the NAIA Preseason Top 25. But a 15-3 start has the Cougars debuting all the way in the No. 8 position in this week's top 25, the first of the regular season.
LSU senior pitcher Britni Sneed tossed her second no-hitter of the season in the Tigers' 5-0 victory over Tennessee ... Missouri freshman pitcher Erin Kalka posted a 3-0 record with two saves in six appearances last week. The Tigers have won their last 10 games ... St. John's freshman pitcher Meghan Allman pitched all 26 innings for the Red Storm last week, posting a 4-0 record, including a no-hitter against Morehead State ... UNLV pitcher Jackie Kerrigan became this year's first two-time Mountain West Conference Pitcher of the Week ... Louisiana-Lafayette senior shortstop Alana Addison hit two home runs last week to increase her career total to 49 ... Rollins first baseman Tina Savage hit safely in all 10 games last week, posting a .588 batting average (20-for-34) ... Ashland senior catcher Alicia Longstreth hit .480 (12-for-25) in eight games last week, including a 4-for-4, eight-RBI performance against Southwest State ... Sophomore third baseman Ria Hoog drove in six runs in Texas A&M-Kingsville's victory over St. Edward's ... Fort Hays State sophomore pitcher/designated player Kristy Roethemeyer hit .464 in nine games last week and also posted a 3-1 record with one save on the mound ... North Dakota State sophomore pitcher Lindsay Graham posted a 5-0 record (all shutouts) while hitting .375 in nine games ... St. Mary's (Texas) pitcher/first baseman Kym Kling hit .471 while notching a 2-0 record and 0.91 ERA ... Nebraska-Omaha senior first baseman/right fielder Erin Drinnin had three three-RBI performances (vs. St. Cloud State, Eastern New Mexico, Mississippi University for Women) in six games last week ... Saint Leo freshman second baseman Denyve Duncan went 5-for-5 and tripled home the game-winning run in the top of the eighth inning in a 3-2 victory over Rollins. Duncan earned Sunshine State Conference Co-Player of the Week honors.

CIO Survey Reveals 4th Q Technology Hiring Outlook
Chief information officers (CIOs) anticipate a slowdown in the hiring of information technology (IT) professionals in the fourth quarter of 2002, according to the just-released Robert Half Technology IT Hiring Index. Eleven percent of executives surveyed plan to expand their IT departments in the coming months and 3 percent anticipate staff cutbacks. Eighty-four percent of CIOs expect no change in hiring activity. The net 8 percent increase is down five percentage points from the previous quarter's forecast.
The national poll includes responses from more than 1,400 CIOs from a stratified random sample of U.S. companies with 100 or more employees. It was conducted by an independent research firm and developed by Robert Half Technology, a leading provider of IT professionals on a project and full-time basis.
"Technology executives are hiring conservatively, keeping many projects on hold pending more definitive signs of economic recovery," said Katherine Spencer Lee, executive director of Robert Half Technology. "Businesses also are bringing in specialists on a project basis to maintain productivity."
Lee noted that firms that are adding technology staff are more selective, choosing only those applicants who have the precise combination of technical skills and industry experience required for the position. "Candidates who can communicate how their contributions will positively impact a company's bottom line, have a distinct advantage in the current employment environment."
Regional Outlook
CIOs in the Pacific1 states anticipate the strongest hiring activity in the fourth quarter. Fifteen percent of technology executives plan to add personnel, and 2 percent expect staff reductions, for a net hiring increase of 13 percent. "Growth in the region's health care and biotechnology industries is creating a need for those skilled in Enterprise Java and .NET development," Lee said.
Notable employment gains also are forecast in the East South Central2 states. Sixteen percent of CIOs plan to expand their IT departments and 4 percent anticipate staff reductions for a net 12 percent increase in hiring activity.
Technology hiring should also exceed the national average in the New England3 and Mountain4 regions, where CIOs project net hiring increases of 10 percent and 9 percent, respectively.
Industries Hiring
Business services will lead all other industries in technology hiring activity in the fourth quarter, according to the survey. Twenty-one percent of CIOs at these firms plan to expand their technology departments, and just 1 percent expect staff cutbacks. The 20 percent net hiring increase is more than twice the national average.
Solid employment gains also are expected in the finance, insurance and real estate sector, where CIOs expect a net 14 percent increase in hiring activity. Technology executives in the wholesale industry foresee a net 12 percent rise.

Arrival of Sopoaga helps shore up line
FOXBORO — For the first time in weeks, the Patriots' situation at defensive tackle didn't seem like such a burden yesterday.
Isaac Sopoaga arrived from Philadelphia, and Tommy Kelly practiced for the first time in nearly four weeks, adding veteran depth to an injury-ravaged line that has been stabilized by some blossoming youngsters. Chris Jones has set the pace with an NFL rookie-leading five sacks, and Joe Vellano delivered some quality reps.

It only took 2 doses of it for me to get pregnant but I ended up losing the pregnancy. We were stationed in Germany at the time and so I had a German fertility specialist who gave it to me. Upon talking to my new fertility specialist when we got back to the states, he said the German doc should have given me something to jump start my period before he gave me the Clomid. IDK though! They are the doctors! My husband recently read an article about Clomid and said it was causing just as many miscarriages as pregnancies and that normally Germany and a few other countries do complete studies on the women they give it to. I had stopped seeing that doctor and went to the OB on base once I got pregnant though so he was unaware of my miscarriage and couldn't record it. ( If I had known that I would have let him know!) All I know is that I probably won't ever be taking it again.posted 11/05/2013 by a BabyCenter Member

Terry Williams received a football scholarship offer from East Carolina University on Tuesday and didn't wait long to accept it.The Grayson linebacker committed to the Pirates' program on Thursday, becoming the third player on the Rams' defense to commit to a college. He is the son of Terry and Erica Williams. "I just felt like it was the right time," Williams said of the quick commitment. "I felt like that's where I wanted to be." Williams chose East Carolina over offers from Eastern Michigan, Kent State, South Alabama, Georgia Southern and Samford. "I visited up there on Sept. 23 and I loved the atmosphere," Williams said. "I felt at home. The coaches really liked me and I liked the school. It will be my home for the next four years." The 6-foot-1, 255-pound Williams, who runs a 4.8-second 40-yard dash, is being recruited as a middle linebacker by the Pirates. Williams leads Grayson in tackles with 56 stops and has two sacks and an interception this season. "Terry is a three-year starter for us. I'm really excited for him," Grayson head coach Mickey Conn said. "I define him as a winner because he raises the play of everyone around him." Williams recorded 106 tackles and one sack as a sophomore. He had 97 tackles and six sacks and an interception last season. The Rams also used him in short yardage situations on offense and he scored six TDs last year. Williams is the third player on the Rams' defense to commit to a college, joining defensive lineman Shawn Green (Georgia Tech) and defensive back Kori Gaines (BYU). Grayson's defense is allowing 8 ppg with four shutouts this season. The Rams (8-0) can clinch their second straight Region 8-AAAAA championship tonight against winless Meadowcreek.

What is the Best Phone for GPS
View Single Post
Beastly Adventurer
Joined: Mar 2012
Location: SFO Bay Area
Oddometer: 1,034
So what's the recommended android app? I am planning a long trip through Canada, and I like relying on my phone for navigation because of a lot of factors:
Has bluetooth, I can get notifications when I am riding
All my music is on the phone.
The phone screen is much nicer, higher res. Sucks in daylight, but liveable
I have to carry less crap.
The phone is usually more powerful.
I am looking for offline Navigation, and have been demoing through some of them. Here's what I've been through so far:
MayDroyd and other OSM variants: Lousy map data, great price (free).
Sygic: Great POI/map data, lousy interface
CoPilot: Much better interface, hit or miss with POIs.
I don't mind shelling out $50 or so for the best app, but I'd rather not demo through all of them, and there are a lot to choose from. So, what is the FF recommendation for a good GPS app on android?

Pretty Posts Sticky
Wondering how to blockquote? Don't know how to embed videos? This sticky is your go-to thread for help with making your comment or thread look as good as the most computer literate users here, hopefully in steps simple enough for [rival joke here] to understand. Before we get to it, there have been helpful threads in the past, such as this one from ShockFX (which goes into more plain text detail than I will here). I'm not promising anything revolutionary as much as providing a link for "one stop shopping" to help people with common problems.
How do I get a quote to show up in the fancy yellow box?
- Click "switch to plain text editor". This is a link at the bottom of the text box for either a comment or post/diary.
- Write out

- Paste your quote between ><
- Switch back to rich text editor. This button is in the same spot at the bottom of the text box as plain text editor.
- Format as needed: this is just trial and error. If you're really stuck it's not the end of the world, it sometimes takes practice.
How do I embed a video?
- Click "switch to plain text editor". This is a link at the bottom of the text box for either a comment or post/diary.
- On YouTube, click "share" and "embed".
- Copy the link that appears.
- Paste the link into the text box.
- Switch back to rich text editor. This button is in the same spot at the bottom of the text box as plain text editor.
- Look for a box. It should have a red outline and say either "flash" or "iframe". If you see this, you've succeeded; congrats.
How do I embed a video in a forum topic or diary?
Follow the instructions immediately above, but after clicking "share" on YouTube, you need to check the box below it that says "use old embed code".
I don't know how to embed a picture in my comment or post/diary.
- The easiest way to do this is to drag the picture from a site hosting it (such as Google Images, Facebook, ect.). You can left click your mouse on the picture and select "view" in Firefox or "open in new tab" in Chrome. Make the window smaller and drag the image into the text box.
- When commenting on a thread, story or diary, the comment box has a line of options at the top, with options like bold, italics, ect. On the far right is a little picture. Click this picture and paste the URL of the picture you would like included. You can obtain the URL by left clicking the image and selecting "copy image location".
Note: .gifs work the same way as pictures. Either of these instructions will work for GIFs.
My picture isn't the right size.
- If you dragged the picture into the comment box, right click and select "image properties", if the ratio is locked, 500 pixel width should be a full sized comment.
- If you are using the embed picture tool the size can be adjusted when you paste your link. 500 pixels wide should be a full sized comment.
I want to embed a Tweet in a comment.
- Click "switch to plain text editor". This is a link at the bottom of the text box for either a comment or post/diary.
- On the tweet you want to embed, click where it says "More"
- On the drop-down, select "Embed Tweet"
- Copy the code that appears
- Paste the code into the post
- Switch back to rich text editor. This button is in the same spot at the bottom of the text box as plain text editor.
Note: I'm told this does not work for forum topics or diaries. Sorry.
I've seen some posts use a fancy link that's part of the text. I want to do that too.
- Highlight the text you want to turn into a blue link.
- Click the blue globe on the top of the text box.
- Paste the URL you'd like to link to.
- Click "OK".
I want to get fancier than that.
To make the link open in a new window or tab:
- After clicking the globe and pasting the URL, click "target" and switch to "New Window (_blank)"
To underline links:
- While the text is highlighted, hit "ctrl" (Command for Apple users) and then "u" on your keyboard.
I need to create a table and copy/paste from Excel looks messy.
- Go to this link.
- Paste the table you have into the box and "Tableize It!"
- Click "switch to plain text editor". This is a link at the bottom of the text box for either a comment or post/diary.
- Paste the information the website spits out as "your table"
- Switch back to rich text editor. This button is in the same spot at the bottom of the text box as plain text editor.
- Format as needed. This usually means (for me) making sure there aren't a bunch of lines between the text and the table.
I still need help; the sticky isn't covering my problem.
Leave a comment here. We're fortunate to have a lot of knowledgeable and friendly posters here on the board, and someone will have an answer for you.
- Thanks to Raoul, Seth and MGoShoe for their work in the suggestions thread, and Michigan Shirt for the ShockFX link; some of the work above is yours and you deserve credit.
- Thank you everyone who made suggestions in the prior thread.
- Irrelevant comments made while this is on the front board will be deleted after it's off, this space should be kept clean for Q&A's.
- Questions, other tips not accounted for here or pointing out something I've done wrong in the OP are all highly encouraged.
Hide Negative Posters Script
EDIT: Hmm, so it works fine when I load it from my own machine, but if I load it from the link it doesn't seem to work, even though it seems to be exactly the same code. I'll try to figure this out before the next release.
EDIT EDIT: Alright, if you download the zip file from the link below, unpack it, and open the file in chrome, it works. This is much more complicated than just clicking the link. Many apologies.
Alright everyone. In the site improvements thread from earlier today, someone mentioned that my suggestion of allowing us to block users with negative points might be able to be taken care of via a greasemonkey script.
I hadn't ever tried them before, but it turns out hiding posts by users with negative points is actually pretty simple. Anyway, if you're in Chrome or if you have GreaseMonkey installed on FireFox, clicking this link should allow you to install the script.
DISCLAIMER: I haven't put anything purposely malicious into this, but I also haven't ever written a GreaseMonkey script before, so there's always a possibility that this will cause other sites to go haywire. For instance, I haven't put any checking in to make sure you're actually on MGoBlog, etc. Try at your own risk.
When I've got more time I'm going to try to tweak it so you can adjust point thresholds, etc. All this does is look for the - in front of the point total. Thresholds would require parsing the points, which I wasn't able to do in the half hour I spent putting this together.
Summer OT: What sites besides mgoblog do you visit daily?
I'll start, in approx. order of how frequently I visit:
-TD Ameritrade (I have a modest amount of $ that I trade)
-my general news feed collector in yahoo
-Collider (entertainment news and reviews)
-WSJ and NYT
-Detroit News sports
Like anyone, there are many others I visit, but not daily. I've heard that porn is big on the internet but I wouldn't know too much about that :). Also FB but not not daily.
How about you?
OT: LaMarcus Aldridge will sign with the Spurs
Free agent LaMarcus Aldridge will sign with the San Antonio Spurs, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.

Hopefully this helps them win another title and Duncan can go out on top. I'm a Pistons fan, but I've always liked the Spurs and their team concept. The way they dismantled LeBron and the Heat two years ago, was just awesome.
Thursday Morning Drinking Thread
As we near what I hope is a long weekend for most readers, it's time to pause and consider the world of beverages that get us moving in the morning. For many, it is a typical cup of drip coffee. Others might look to a vodka and OJ to usher them into a patriotic weekend.
My new obsession is nitro coffee. I wouldn't say I am a coffee snob, but a couple local shops have taken to making iced coffee infused with cream and nitrogen (also some CO2). My god it tastes like caffeine Guinness. But at $5 a pop it is about as expensive as a beer, so remains a rare treat.
What's in your cup?

The Cessna 205, 206, and 207, known variously as the Super Skywagon, Stationair, and Super Skylane are a family of single engine, general aviation aircraft with fixed landing gear used in commercial air service and also for personal use. The family was originally developed from the popular retractable-gear Cessna 210.
The line's combination of a powerful engine, rugged construction and a large cabin has made these aircraft popular bush planes. Cessna describes the 206 as "the sport-utility vehicle of the air." These airplanes are also used for aerial photography, skydiving and other utility purposes. They can also be equipped with floats, amphibious floats and skis. Alternatively, they can be fitted with luxury appointments for use as a personal air transport.
Between the start of production in 1962 and 2006 the total Cessna 205, 206 and 207 production has been 8509 aircraft so far.
The 205 is powered by a Continental IO-470-S engine producing 260 hp.
The 205 was officially designated by Cessna as a "Model 210-5"
The 205 was only produced in two model years - 1963 and 1964 before being replaced in production by the Cessna 206. A total of 576 Cessna 205s were produced.
There were many sub-variants, including the U206, P206 all certified to CAR3 standards and later 206H certified to FAR Part 23.
The total Model 206 production between 1964 and 2004 was 6581 aircraft.
There was a TU206 turbocharged version powered by the Continental TSIO-520-C engine producing 285 hp. After 1967 the turbo TU206 was powered by a TSIO-520-F of 300 hp (the extra 15 hp were obtained by turning the engine at a higher rpm, and was only allowed for five minutes. Due to the large propeller diameter, the additional engine speed meant that the propeller tips were pushed to transonic speeds, which required much more power. Thus the extra 15 hp did not produce much performance improvement but did produce an unpleasant noise).
From 1964 to 1969 the U206 was known as the "Super Skywagon". From 1970 it was named the "Stationair", a contraction of "Station Wagon of the Air", which is a good description of the aircraft's intended role. Sub-variants were designated U206 to U206G.
In 1977 the U206 had its engine upgraded to a Continental IO-520-F of 300 hp (continuous rating, obtained at a more reasonable speed than the previous IO-520-F) and the TU206 powerplant was changed to the TSIO-520-M producing 310 hp.
Production of all versions of the U206 was halted in 1986 when Cessna stopped manufacturing all piston engine aircraft. A total of 5208 U206s had been produced.
The P206 was produced from 1965 to 1970 and was powered by a Continental IO-520-A of 285 hp. There was a turbocharged model designated TP206 which was powered by a Continental TSIO-520-A also of 285 hp.
647 P206s were produced under the name "Super Skylane" which made it sound like a version of the Cessna 182, which it was not. Sub-variants were designated P206 to P206E.
The 206H is powered by a Lycoming IO-540-AC1A powerplant producing 300 hp. The turbocharged T206H is powered by a Lycoming TSIO-540-AJ1A engine of 310 hp.
Even though the Cessna 206H is certified as a six seat aircraft in its country of origin, the Canadian aviation regulator, Transport Canada has only certified it to carry five people in Canada. This is due to concerns about passenger egress through the rear clamshell door with the flaps extended. Cessna addressed one part of this problem early on, after a flight-test aircraft was damaged when the pilot extended the flaps while taxiing, and his passenger had the clamshell door open (for ventilation; it was a hot summer day). A switch was added to the flap actuation circuit which disabled the flaps when the doors were open. The other part of the problem is that if the flaps are already down, the passenger must perform the complicated procedure of opening the front part as far as possible (about 2 inches) then open the rear door and restow the rear door handle. This then gives enough clearance to open the rear part of the door.
Both the 206H and the T206H remain in production in 2008. By the end of 2004 Cessna had produced 221 206Hs and 505 T206Hs, for a total production of 726 "H" models.
Cessna has indicated that they do not intend to produce a P206-configuration aircraft in the future, due to lack of market demand.
The 207 was introduced as a 1969 model featuring a Continental IO-520-F engine of 300 hp. A turbocharged version was equipped with a TSIO-520-G of the same output.
At the beginning of production the model was called a Cessna 207 "Skywagon", but in 1977 the name was changed to "Stationair 7". 1977 also saw a change in engine on the turbocharged version to a Continental TSIO-520-M producing 310 hp – the same engine used in the TU206 of the same vintage.
The 207 added a seat in 1980 and was then known as the "Stationair 8". Production of the 207 was completed in 1984, just two years before U206 production halted. A total of 626 Cessna 207s were manufactured.
The Cessna Model 207 has been popular with air taxi companies, particularly on short runs where its full seating capacity could be used. Very few of these aircraft have seen private use.
In April 2007 Thielert announced that the European Aviation Safety Agency had granted a Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) for conversion of Cessna 206s to the Thielert V-8 diesel powerplant. The STC allows conversion of the following models: U206F and TU206F with the 300hp powerplant, and the U206G, TU206G, 206H and T206H with the 310hp version. This modification does not require any changes to the engine cowling. In May 2008, Thielert entered insolvency proceedings, so the future availability of this diesel conversion is uncertain.
Soloy Aviation Solutions offers a turboprop conversion for all 205/206/207 models based on the 418 SHP Allison C20S engine. However, extensive engine cowl modifications are required.
Atlantic Aero offers an FAA STC conversion to the Continental 550 powerplant. No cowl modifications are required.
Both Kenmore Air (Edo floats) and Wipair (Wipline floats) offer seaplane conversions.

Quite good! We cut the sugar to 1/4 cup and the honey to 1/2 cup. Substituted 1/2 vanilla rice milk for 1/2 the oil. Also, had no nuts. Easy to make. Shared with the neighbors, who also liked it...
ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! i made some alterations in an attempt to make it healthier. I used 1/2 cup splenda and 1/2 cup of splenda brown sugar. i also only used 1/2 cup of honey. i used half apples...
Delicious! It was very sweet, but I like it sweet. I made it fat free by substituting pumpkin for all of the fat,which produced an extremely moist cake. I'll definitely make again!

Folie à Deux (pronounced "folee ah duh") is one of the bigger success stories in the wine biz. Their sister label Menage à Trois sells like sex on a street corner mainly because it's sweet, juicy and, well, the name is enticing. I doubt anyone at that winery wonders if sex sells. But the Folie à Deux labels show a more serious wine side to them, with fruit coming from Sonoma County's Alexander Valley (Cabernet Sauvignon) and Dry Creek Valley, which this little drinkable gem hails from. Dry Creek is a neighboring wine region to where I live, and the Zinfandel grape thrives where summer highs can be 8-10 degrees warmer than 20 minutes south in the Russian River Valley. That was something I had to get used to when I moved here. This fruit-forward, low tannin wine has captured my attention for years and I used to drink them more often until their alcohol levels practically morphed into 16% rubbing alcohol.

Hi guys,
I was wondering if there were any good books you would recommend for learning about EC? When I ECed my kids, I just used online resources, and the Mothering community, but I have a cousin that asked if I could recommend an actual book.
She wants her husband to read up on it, and thinks it is more likely for him to do so if she can leave something on the bathroom counter or such for him to pick up and browse. So probably nothing massive or super in-depth, some fairly light reading, you get the idea. I have no idea, as I never read any books about it, so I thought I would come to you.

Full detailed profile on Kayla Johnson Played by Mary Beth Evans on Days of Our Lives Daytime Soap Opera.
Mary Beth Evans (NBC)
Birthday: March 7 1961
Kayla meets Hope at the square and says she's interested in Aiden. Hope grimaces. Kayla asks if she should be interested. Hope says he's judgemental and stubborn but he can be nice and charismatic. Kayla goes and Aiden shows his face. He heard everything she said.
At the Horton house, a celebration ensues as JJ and the others get home. Kayla tells JJ she knew everything would work out. Jenn is upset when JJ's friends show up. JJ tells Jenn they stuck by him. JJ thanks everyone and then leaves with his pals. Hope chats with Aiden, but Ciara is taken aback to see him there. She reminds Hope, loudly, what she said about him. Aiden leaves. Kayla tries to talk to Jenn about Daniel, but she refuses. She says there's no future there since he spent the night with Theresa and didn't even try to explain.
At the Brady Pub, Eric admits he didn't want to make a scene at St. Luke's when Sami conveys he was missed at mass. Nicole brings gifts for the kids and argues how she was just trying to help Eric when Sami admits knowing Eric went to mass with her. Sami thanks Nicole and Eric follows her out when she leaves. Nearby, Kayla has her reservations that Theresa is turning her life around like Caroline thinks while Sami explains to Roman that Eric went to mass with Nicole when he finds her watching them outside. Roman thinks the Lord works in mysterious ways. Outside, Eric invites Nicole to stay but she has plans which he assumes are with Daniel. He rejoins Sami and wonders if EJ isn't there because of him. Sami can't tell him what's going on and gets distracted when Caroline asks Eric to fix something Nick used to fix for her.
Anne passes out Christmas hats and promises a party full of surprises at the hospital. Maxine's tired of Anne when she hears her say the party will be 'fun if it kills us' and rips Anne's 'ridiculous' hat from her head. Later, Anne's pleased when Jenn arrives worked up over a missing food bank delivery. Julie needs Jenn's Christmas list for the kids when Jenn disappears and Kayla's confused since she has confirmation of the delivery. During the distraction Anne sits down to read The Christmas Story dressed as an elf. Doug, dressed as Santa, interrupts and invites Abby to read. Jenn returns and Anne frowns as everyone sings a carol.
At the Horton house, Kayla brings up Abigail's break-up with Chad. She knows it's because Chad lied about having a brain tumor and that EJ helped cover it up. Abby thinks she drove him to it and doesn't want Jenn to know.
At the hospital, Anne has the perfect thing to make Daniel's hearing go ba-boom. She asks Theresa if she wants to play along and coaches her on what her statement should be. She should say Dr. Jonas wanted to do drugs with her and quote him as trashing Jennifer. Theresa's not sure she wants to lie. Kayla interrupts and walks Theresa out as Daniel and Jennifer cross paths on their way to the hearing. In the conference room, EJ's confused why the board is doing this. Daniel's called in to make his statement. Anne is warned that questions should be saved for later when she tries to interrupt. Daniel explains what happened and presents over a hundred letters of support as Anne texts someone. Theresa joins them and is interested in making a statement. She unfolds her statement and confesses the bad year she's been having. She can't remember what happened but regrets the trouble it has caused Dr. Jonas. She's grateful that he saved her life. Dr. Westbrooke is about to render his decision when Anne complains. Jennifer warns that third-party statements from Anne's independent investigation are inadmissible. Westbrooke closes the case and Anne rushes out as Daniel thanks EJ for his support. Later, Jennifer admits to Daniel that her day is complete if Anne wasn't happy. Daniel appreciates how Jennifer supported him. She had to write the truth, he's a great doctor - it's too bad he's a poor excuse of a human being. Meanwhile at the nurse's station, Anne's mad that Theresa got a conscience. Theresa thinks it's time she learned who her real friends are and leaves Anne.
JJ bumps into Kayla at the square and questions what happened to Daniel. She confesses it's over and hopes this could be a new beginning for his mom with Daniel.
At the Brady's Pub, Theresa wants to know whether or not she'll return to California. She's willing to go into rehab. Caroline says they'll support her. Kimberly says they don't want her in jail. In tears, Theresa says she wants to stay in Salem but is pissed when Shane says Jenn's playing a part in their decision. Jenn arrives and Theresa apologizes for being such a 'bitch' and hopes one day she can forgive her. Jenn doesn't care if she stays in Salem but she needs to stay away from JJ. She walks out with Kayla and admits she's made mistakes, too. Inside, Kimberly thinks Theresa's hiding something from the night she overdosed.
Rafe and Jordan return to the hospital. Rafe wonders if she's from the south when she starts making 'sweet tea'. Kate watches as he grabs her hand and says he's glad she had a good time at the club last night. In his office, Daniel won't let JJ tell Jenn the truth. It'd ruin her pride in him. He recalls how proud Jenn was of his guitar playing in the past. Kate follows Jordan into the rehab room and questions her about her reputation and the way she operates. Meanwhile, Daniel visits Rafe. They talk about Eric ignoring his calls and Rafe asks how Daniel's doing with the hospital gossip. Dan assures Rafe he'll be fine. Jenn and Kayla return and Daniel has a tough time with Jenn so near.
At the Brady Pub, Theresa asks Caroline why she put a closed sign on the door. Shane and Kimberly appear. Teresa asks what's going on. Her parents each embrace her. Shane says they're very worried about her. Kayla, Hope, and Roman join them. Roman says, "So are we." Theresa realizes it's an intervention and insists she already knows she messed up. Hope says they've heard it before. Roman wants her to admit she needs help and get it - otherwise she'll lose their support. Theresa says she'll go to AA, but becomes upset when her parents bring up returning to California. They argue. Theresa complains that they're throwing her to the wolves - her probation will be revoked. Kimberly says nearly died - that can't happen again. Shane steps out with Theresa, who thanks him for getting her away from her mom. Shane warns her not to try to play him against her mother. It's not happening. He rants about her actions. Theresa complains about his absences. Shane says she can't guilt him. Inside, the others vow to get through to Theresa. Kimberly says she should have done better. Shane gets Kimberly and tells Theresa to wait with the others - they'll be back. Caroline coaxes Theresa to come back inside and cooperate. Theresa talks to Kayla about her job and blames Jennifer.

Reporting Blackboard survey results
STEP 7. Analyze the data
Once students have completed the survey, you can view the results on the Item Detail Statistics page, accessed through the gradebook. The simplest approach to analyzing the results is to study the percentage of students who chose different response choices for each close-ended question. [more]
For open-ended questions, identify repeating ideas and themes. [more] Blackboard allows you to view all the open-ended responses to a question together on one page.
Results should answer the questions you posed at the beginning of the process. If the results do not provide enough information, you might consider creating and administering a follow-up survey.
STEP 8. Make conclusions
Evaluate the results by how well they answer the study's central questions. Your conclusions should be based on the findings of your data analysis and should inform any recommendations.
Having clear, measurable goals will help you determine whether to recommend any changes based on your results. For example: after a survey, the results indicate that a large percentage (35%) of students did not feel that the technology assisted their learning. If one of the technology's goals was to aid student learning, this result might be disappointing. Based on this finding, you might decide to not adopt this particular technology or developers may obtain more information from users in order to improve it.
Generally, if at least one-third of respondents express dissatisfaction, changes need to be made. If at least one-third expresses neutrality, it suggests adequacy.
STEP 9. Report results
For instructional technology assessments, the results may be presented informally in a meeting with stakeholders or more formally in a presentation or written report. [more]

Buying a distressed business
Quarter one of 2012 saw a 24% increase in administrations in the motor retail sector compared to the same period last year. Since then, rising levels of new car registrations have caused more optimism. But now many in the industry are asking whether levels of pre-registrations by UK dealers are distorting the true figures and whether sales are only being achieved at the expense of profit.
Whatever the case, it's likely there will continue to be a number of insolvent or distressed dealerships coming up for sale. So do these distressed sales provide successful dealers with exciting opportunities to strengthen their position? Or will an acquisition prove a disastrous move?

Oil & Gas
Major Industry Policies
Production Sharing Contract (PSC)
The essence of PSC is that NNPC engages a competent contractor to carry out petroleum operations on NNPCs wholly held acreage. The contractor undertakes the initial exploration risks and recovers his costs if and when oil is discovered and extracted.
Under the PSC, the contractor has a right to only that fraction of the crude oil allocated to him under the cost oil (oil to recoup production cost) and equity oil (oil to guarantee return on investment). He can also dispose of the tax oil (oil to defray tax and royalty obligations) subject to NNPCs approval. The balance of the oil, if any (after cost, equity, and tax), is shared between the parties (profit oil).
The current direction in the petroleum operations in the country is the production sharing contract.
Examples below detail the number of blocks held by named operators operating
PSC with NNPC.
(a) The term of the contract is for 30 years (inclusive of 10 years exploration and 20 years OML period). However, the contract may be terminated if at the end of the 6th year (from the effective date of the contract) the agreed Work Programme has not been substantially executed, or either party gives a notice of not less than 90 days for termination of the contract (on grounds permitted by the contract terms). Termination of the contract will also take place if no petroleum is found in the contact area after 10 years from the effective date of the contract.
(b) Work Programme: The minimum work programme during the exploration period shall be as follows:
If during any period of the contract years, the contractor spends less than the required expenditure, an amount equal to such under-expenditure shall be carried forward and added to the amount to be expended in the following period of contract years.
(c) Management Committee must be established within 30 days from the effective date of the contract. The Committee is made up of 10 persons appointed by the parties on a 50/50 basis.
The NNPC appoints the Chairman of the Management Committee while the contractor appoints the Secretary who will be a non-member of the Committee.
(d) Recovery of Operating Costs and Crude Oil Allocation: The available crude oil from the contract area shall be allocated in accordance with the Accounting Procedure, the Allocation Procedure and other applicable provisions of the contract.
(e) Royalty: Royalty rates in offshore is graduated as follows:

No introduction yet
About us…
As it has come to pass, verily we say unto thee, that as a community*, we are, or ought to be, transitioning, if only we had a goddammed Atlas. We're celebrating the transition by keeping absolutely everything exactly and universally the same. We are chilling in the stillness of the present moment of meeting up down at the Astor Hotel @ 437 Pulteney St, ( it's right on the North-West corner of Pulteney and Gilles), on the first Monday night of the month for a heartfelt chat, without parental supervision, real, imagined or goddess-given. The common thing we share isn't a belief in some god or other (even given that there's just so many to choose from) or a belief that there positively isn't a god. What we share is a lack of belief in god. That is to say, for us, as atheists, there's an echoing absence of a belief in god. And as such, we are pretty keen to live life free from the strictures and scriptures imposed by the religious everyman and his dogma.
So no grand designs, other than the ones that we individually create. No little plans, other than our own itsy-bitsy foibles of paying the mortgage and writing some distinctly average poetry, which we like to imagine is all completely the actual product of our very own rapier wits. Such is the cut, the thrust and parry of our one known shot at life. But and however, you might notice that we're quite relaxed & comfortable about all of that. If you bother to come along then you might find that by the end of the evening that it was noted several times, without despair, an echoing absence of an Atlas. +
And Oh, BTW, and PS; the monthly social meetups are a great way to meet fellow atheists and be a part of the greater atheist community in South Australia. Each month we gather at for a meal, a few drinks, and a chat about anything and everything. Whether you have only recently walked away from religion, or have been an atheist for a long time, you're welcome to come along and hang out for a few hours in a friendly atmosphere. It is not necessary for a person to be a paid member of The Atheist Community of South Australia Incorporated to attend this event. Committee members will be available on the night to answer your questions about the Atheist Community of South Australia. Failing that Wayne J. will just make up some random stuff as we go along; he's qualified since he's an ex-baptist. Ex seventh-day-adventist, mormons and anglicans available on request. Membership application forms will also be available at the event or you can print and prefill one yourself and bring it along!
* The Atheist-Community-of-SA Incorporated (ACSA) host this MeetUp.
+ And if you really really must have an Atlas present, we've left one over there; can you see?? Just over behind that tree, yeah that's right, the one just beyond last Wednesday's fortnight. ++
++ And for those also seeking a definite guarantee of the certainty of a single deified moral sauce then take a little further wander on down that winding path to finders keepers that grave of some old geeky greeky guy, where the headstone reads "Xenophanes, Circa 500 BCE" and the inspiration says "But as for certain truth, no man has known it. Nor will he know it; neither of the gods, nor yet of all the things of which I speak. And if by chance he were to utter the final truth, he would himself not know it : For all is but a woven web of guesses."

May also be called: Broken Elbow
Fractured (broken) elbows are a common injury in kids and teens. Most heal well when the joint is protected with a cast. Sometimes surgery is needed, but this is rare.
The elbow joint is made up of three bones. A fractured elbow means that one of the bones is broken. The elbow is commonly broken when someone holds an arm out to stop a fall. Sometimes the broken bone is obvious on X-ray. Other times, fluid collecting around the elbow joint is the only sign of a fracture.
A fiberglass or plaster cast will be placed around the elbow to support it and hold the broken bone(s) steady while they're healing.
How long a cast is needed varies depending on the type of injury and how the bones are healing. The doctor will let you know how long the cast is to be worn. A cast can feel heavy, so sometimes a sling is placed over it for support.

Consequently, the system walks toward the unstable periodic orbit along the stable manifold. Eventually, it is repelled from that orbit, at which point PPF control again intervenes to constrain the system. The PPF technique has been used, for example, to control the interspike intervals of arrhythmic cardiac tissue and spontaneously bursting neuronal networks.
