NHL Handicapping Guide- October 27
- Updated: October 28, 2011
NHL Handicapping Guide- October 27
The 2011/2012 NHL regular season is less than a month old, but a few teams are already making a bold statement that they are the current odds-on-favorite to win this year's Stanley Cup. We are also starting to see some early betting trends that offer an excellent opportunity to 'bang the book' on a couple of this weekend's matchups.
The biggest statement so far has been made by the Washington Capitals with a perfect 7-0 start. The Caps have always been one of the best teams in the regular season over the last few years, but this year's team appears to be on a mission to finally bring home the Cup. They are +16 in scoring while giving-up an average of just two goals a game. The one thing Washington has not been this season is a solid play on the puck line with a 3-4 record against the spread. It is just barely in the black on money line at +27.
Another hot team from the East has also been this season's best bet so far. Pittsburgh is 7-2-1 SU and 8-3 ATS. It has provided the biggest return on the money line at +966. The Penguins lead the NHL in goals with 33, so you can only imagine how potent their offense will be once Sidney Crosby is finally cleared to return to the lineup.
Dallas has been the hottest team in the West with a 7-2-0 start SU. It has also been one of the stingiest teams in the league with a goals-against average of 1.89. The Stars are 6-3 ATS and a profitable +326 on the money line, but the 'under' has been the 'best bet' with six of their first nine games staying 'under' the total.
The money maker so far in the West has been Edmonton. The Oilers are off to a 4-2-2 start SU, but they are 7-1 ATS and +600 on the money line. There are averaging just 1.88 goals a game while sporting a goals-against average of 1.5, so it is little wonder that the total has stayed 'under' in seven of their first eight games.
Turning to the top plays for Friday night's action, the first game on-tap pits Chicago at Carolina. The Blackhawks appear to be back in the form they were in 2010 when they won the Stanley Cup. They are 5-1-2 SU in their first eight games, but just 3-5 ATS. Carolina is 3-3-3 SU in nine games, but a 5-4 ATS. Chicago is 2-8-1 in the last 11 meetings between the two overall and it has not won in Carolina in its last six trips there. Stick with the Hurricanes in this one as they should open as a mild home underdog on the money line. NHL Free Pick: Carolina
Also on Friday night, San Jose travels to Detroit to take on the Red Wings in a matchup between two of the better teams in the West. The Sharks got off to a slow start but have won their last three to raise their record to 4-3 SU (3-4 ATS). Detroit started the season with five straight wins, but has lost its last two heading into this game. The Red Wings are 5-2 SU (4-3 ATS). San Jose ousted the Red Wings from the second round of the playoffs last season in seven games, winning a crucial game seven at home. Take Detroit and the short memory to get the victory this time on its home ice. NHL Free Pick: Detroit
The highlight of Saturday's schedule could very well be a preview of this season's Stanley Cup Finals when the Capitals head to the West Coast with a showdown with the Vancouver Canucks. These two met one last season with the Canucks coming away with a 4-2 win on the road. The year before, Vancouver beat Washington 3-2 at home.

text: So how can you avoid stick contact? Stick on stick contact is not part of the sport. There is no benefit to hitting another player's stick. It hurts both sticks and doesn't give you posession of the ball. Make a conscious effort to hit only the ball. Become a better tackler. Watch how the top players avoid having their stick hit by other players by releasing the ball sooner.

The uproar was immediate after H.M. Rasyid, education chief of Prabumulih district in Indonesia's south, announced last week that female high school students should undergo mandatory virginity tests as "an accurate way to protect children from prostitution and free sex." Rasyid announced that he would use city funding for the tests which he described as "for their own good" as "every woman has the right to virginity … we expect students not to commit negative acts."
The call for virginity tests is a not very subtle sign of how the education of young women in traditional societies has become intertwined with efforts to control their bodies and stigmatize them for "improprieties." In South Africa, girls who become pregnant are often expelled from school. If the policy is meant as a deterrent, it is failing: a 2002 study found that one in every three teenage South Africans had become pregnant by the age of 19. 94,000 teenagers are thought to have become pregnant in 2011 alone.
Uproar Over Virginity Test Proposal
Rasyid's proposal, which called for female high school students aged 16-19 years old to have their hymens examined every year when they were graduating, was said to be in response to a perceived problem with promiscuity among teenage girls amid reports that six high school students had been arrested for allegations of prostitution.
It was the third time that such a plan has been proposed in Indonesia. Similar proposals had been made in Java in 2007 and in 2010 in Sumatra.
Both were dropped following public outrage and the same has happened this time. Politicians, activists, rights groups and the local Islamic advisory council have all criticized Rasyid's plan, saying that such tests violate girls' human rights and deprive them of their universal right to education as well as targeting those who may have been victims of sexual assault. Education minister Mohammed Nuh called the tests "degrading and discriminatory."
Nuh also said that there is a "wiser way to address the issue of teen sex." While Rasyid himself has been claiming he was misquoted, the issue of virginity is likely to remain a topic of discussion and contention in Indonesia, a country of 240 million where "rapidly changing mores … can sometimes create tension among the country's more conservative elders and its large, more moderate youth." Last year, Indonesian lawmakers proposed a ban on miniskirts on the grounds that "provocative clothing makes men do things."
Girls and women have also been subjected to virginity tests in Afghanistan and India. In March 2011 in Egypt, the sexual assault of six women by Egyptian military officers was referred to as "virginity tests." It was only in July of this year that India's Supreme Court decreed that the so-called "two-finger test" which many doctors have used during medical and legal examinations of rape survivors in parts of India "violates the right of rape survivors to privacy, physical and mental integrity and dignity. "
Pregnant Teens Banned From School in South Africa
Things are slowly changing for girls in South Africa. This past July, the Constitutional Court ordered two state schools to stop banning pregnant girls.
They still have very few options if they wish to continue their education: South Africa has only one school, Pretoria Hospital School, for pregnant girls. 108 students ages 13 to 18 are currently enrolled; after giving birth, the teens are able to return to finish the academic year.
Principal Rina Van Niekerk has worked at the school for 25 years and emphasizes the challenges faced by students who are pregnant.
Some object to the creation of separate schools for pregnant girls. Andile Dube, the director of LoveLife, South Africa's largest organization targeting HIV/AIDS among young people, argues that separate schools "only deal with pregnancy management rather than prevention." Creating separate schools is equivalent to saying that pregnancy in teens is "something that has to be treated differently."
At a time when thousands of girls in Western nations are preparing for a new school year, too many other young women are facing daunting obstacles just to go to school at all. Education is a human right and one that too many girls are deprived of. Pakistani teenage activist Malala Yousafzai has shown that girls can overcome huge odds to get the education they are entitled to.

Absolutely insane!!
Mr. Rasyid said quite a few ludicrous things but luckily it looks as though this project will go nowhere. The issue of having separate schools for pregnant girls is also a sign of prejudice and an ill conceived notion of sexuality. Pregnancy is not contagious and only girls with very brittle self esteem will become a copy cat just because a peer is attending school while pregnant.
Good morning Judie - well, I've tried to adhere to Care2 rules - LOL. I would have loved to write "@*##$%@##" and "@*##$%@##" and another "@*##$%@##" ... and that wouldn't even cut it!
I like my meantime very old idea: collect all the fundies and extremists - Muslims, Christians and Jews - throw in a handsome amount of the fundamentalist "Atheists" (to ensure action) and ship them to a nice and empty island. We could vacate e.g. Diego Garcia from the US military. Let them sort it out until the last man standing! ... I'd offer my voluntary service for the ticket sale ... ;-).
Maybe after that we normal folks could simply go about our lives and enjoy? But I've a nagging feeling that some other "idiots" would pop up - wonder what it is with the human race that there's always a group who thinks they know it all and much better than we do?!
Stay safe!
Who thinks up this stuff?
Eleonora - I see you are being generous, again! "Retarded idiots" is rather mild, considering what I was thinking! :)
Judie - you ask who H.M. Rasyid is anyway? He (and the likes) can be described in just two words: "retarded idiots" (excuse my "French")!
And just who is H.M. Rasyid, anyway? A born-again virgin? Please. What would truly be for their own good would be education for boys on how to respect girls and not treat them like chattel, and education for girls teaching them that they have value and are not property.

[FLASHBACK] England whitewash India
The euphoria of winning the 2011 World Cup on home soil had hardly settled down by the time that MS Dhoni's men embarked on the tour of England, but as the Test series went on, that joy turned to disappointment as Andrew Strauss' team outwitted India in all the four Tests.
England drove the last nail into India's coffin in this series at The Oval on August 22, 2011; when they won the fourth Test by an innings and 8 runs and inflicted a 4-0 whitewash.
Ian Bell was India's chief tormentor as he scored his maiden double century and also put on a mammoth 350-runs stand with Kevin Pietersen.
Rahul Dravid's 146* in the first innings helped India make 300 for the first and only time in the series. In the second innings, Sachin Tendulkar and Amit Mishra's 144-runs partnership with Amit Mishra raised India's hopes of salvaging a draw, but the then No. 1 ranked Test team lost their last six wickets for 21 runs with Graeme Swann running through the middle and late order.
This was England's first series whitewash in seven years and also made them the new No. 1 ranked Test team. [TAG: CYCSPL]

Arizona Wildcats
Arizona coach: Receiver Austin Hill is 100 percent
It looks like Austin Hill is ready to go.
The wide receiver, who missed all of last season after tearing the ACL in his left knee during spring ball, will be back with the team and on the field as the Wildcats begin spring camp this year.
"He's still wearing the knee brace, I think it's just more precautionary and all that," Arizona coach Rich Rodriguez said Wednesday. "But he's 100 percent doing everything.
"And he actually looks bigger and stronger. He should have a big spring, and I know he's hungry to get out there too."
In 2012, as a sophomore, Hill caught 81 passes for 1,364 yards and 11 touchdowns.
Hill is set to join what figures to be one of the deepest receiver groups in the country, as it also includes last year's leader, Nate Phillips, along with Texas Transfer Cayleb Jones, Notre Dame transfer DaVonte Neal, Trey Griffey, Garic Wharton, Samajie Grant and David Richards.
"This could be as deep a receiving crew as I've ever coached," Rodriguez said. "Potentially -- and again it's that word potential -- potentially it could be the deepest receiving crew that I've ever been a part of."

New Patch 1.2 information from crytek!

New Patch 1.2 information from crytek!
We want to talk a bit about the current development status of the long awaited Crysis Patch 1.2. In addition to that we are going to introduce you to a number of bug fixes and also new features that are included.
Patch 1.2 Development Status
Alright, lets begin with the first topic. Patch 1.2 has been in development for quite some time now and we are very satisfied with its current progress. The patch as itself is nearly finished from a content point of view.
This means no new features and major changes are getting implemented unless a critical issue appears and requires immediate fixing. At the moment the tasks that are left to be done are testing the whole patch content-wise and installer-wise to ensure all bug fixes/features are working as intended and nothing else is broken.
The test phase will last until EAs and Cryteks Quality Assurance departments are satisfied with the overall quality and stability of the whole patch. Since this is a very important part of the patch development we have to wait for additional feedback from both QA departments in order to set and announce a release date.
Patch 1.2 Bug Fixes & Features Introduction
In every Crysis Weekly Update we are going to feature a few of the upcoming bug fixes and/or features and talk about them a bit more detailed. The introductions for this update are:
Weapons - new grenade indicator icon
With patch 1.1 we have activated the client visibility of a hexagon icon for both team mates and enemies that displays where a grenade has been thrown at. With patch 1.2 we are improving this feature and made it more readable for everyone.
We got rid of the hexagon and replaced it with a nifty colored triangle. Additionally the type of the grenade has been added as text as well. Friendly grenades show up marked as blue on the HUD and enemy grenades as red marked.
Multiplayer - Added team colors to kill/death messages
To improve the readability of the kills/deaths that are going on during a match we added colors to these messages that appear in the upper left corner of the HUD.
Members of your team are getting displayed in a blue color whereas enemy players are displayed in a red color. So obviously seeing a blue name killing a blue name is not good and should be avoided
Since this is the first weekly update that is being sent out we are going to inform you about additional bug fixes/tweaks and also name some new features that will be included. With the upcoming weeks we try to inform you as good as possible about the change log, but no promise that we can finish the whole list until the patch is released it is quite huge!
1. Optimizations and Stability
* Fixed potential server exploit that could cause servers to crash.
2. General Fixes/tweaks
* Added mouse wheel scrolling support for server browser.
* Fixed an issue where in unarmed mode, the character's arms will suddenly reappear
and disappear when picking up and dropping an object.
* Added new effects for vehicle shattering after being frozen.
3. Weapons
* C4 will now stick to doors correctly.
* Added new grenade indicator icon. (explained in detail further above)
* Adjusted explosion radius of grenade launcher to be more efficient vs. players.
4. Vehicles
* Added check for players riding on vehicles while not seated to prevent them being killed.
* Tweaked damage for players hit by vehicles at lower speeds.
* Adjusted wall collision damage for civilian car.
5. Singleplayer
* Improved AI machinegun handling (both stationary and mounted machineguns on
* Fixed an issue with "Escort Prophet out of sphere" objective failure causing reloading
6. Multiplayer
* Added team colors to kill/death messages (explained in detail further above).
* Fixed some game states not properly resetting after game restart.
* Fixed issue where VOIP doesn't work properly on non-dedicated servers.
7. New Features
* Added auto team balance. Players will now be moved from full teams to the opposing
side when dead if the numbers are unbalanced.
So thats it for the first Crysis Weekly Update! We hope you enjoy the information and thanks for your irresistible support

Last summer the southern border disappeared. Unaccompanied minors from Central and South America surged across the Rio Grande. Desperate parents had sent their children thousands of miles north. The impoverished girls and boys were housed in ramshackle facilities before being sent elsewhere. The images were heartbreaking. They seemed drawn from a post-apocalyptic future. And they were entirely preventable.
Democrats Against Executive Amnesty
The New York Times reports that President Obama is preparing to disregard the results of the midterm elections by taking executive action to provide amnesty for millions of illegal immigrants, despite overwhelming evidence suggesting the American people would not support such action.

WOW! This was literally my first book that I've read on my own and what a book! Before this book was introduced to me by my boss I hated to read. I thought why would I waste my time on reading a book when I have a 2 year old who keeps me busy enough. I was so glad that I started this book. From the moment I started reading I was hooked. I took every free moment I had to read. Since this book I've read other romance/suspense books but this in particular was my all time favorite. Ms. Rose knows how to grab a reader from the beginning. I have to admit the love scenes caught me a bit off guard. I didn't realize you could be so descriptive when it came to that subject.
I would have to highly recommend this book. It's well worth it to add to your library.
A bit of advice before you start this book. Read Don't Tell first. I didn't have the pleasure of reading it first, but when I did I was kind of disappointed in myself for not reading first. Don't Tell, which is just as good as Have You Seen Her, will answer questions you might have in this book. Enjoy!!!
5.0 out of 5 stars Hair raising suspense,
Mary Chrapliwy (NJ, USA) - See all my reviews
Well, I found out what Romantic Suspense is by reading this book. It is a mix of sizzling romance with mystery/suspense. I read a variety of things, but have never read a book quite like this one.
Special Agent Steven Thatcher is the lead investigator on a series of serial killings in his small town - the killer targets young, innocent teenage girls. He meets his teenage son's teacher, Jenna Marshall who is concerned about his son's falling grades. They feel an immediate attraction for one another, but due to losses and disappointments in their previous relationships, they resist each other's affections.
After the initial chapters, which included sizzling descriptions about how the main characters felt about each other, I almost put this book down. I was afraid the book would be more romance and very little suspense. I was wrong. I am so glad I didn't give up on this one.
Though romance is at the core of this story, the suspense is so hair raising and realistic that I stayed up way past my bedtime to finish reading this book. As with any good mystery/suspense, this writer managed to throw out enough clues to lead you along the path of who the killer was yet still hit you with a big surprise you at the end - the killer is not the person you think he is.
This was a highly entertaining read, I highly recommend it. You may just stay up past your bedtime reading it too.
4.0 out of 5 stars A Must Read For Suspense/Romance Readers!!!,
Kristi Ahlers (Illinois) - See all my reviews
Ms. Rose has now become one of the authors that I will buy simply because her name appears on the cover. This is the second book of hers that I've read and she is an excellent romantic suspense author. Ms. Rose has managed to deliver an equal amount of suspense and romance without cheating either concept and at the same time keeping you glued to the pages.
We met Special Agent Steven Thatcher in Ms. Rose's novel "Don't Tell." In this story Steven is investigating a horrific serial murder at the same time trying to balance being a father. Of course nothing is so easy and his oldest son as been acting out and not doing well in school. Enter Jenna Marshall, Brad's science teacher. She is concerned that Brad is not perfoming as he should and makes an appointment to meet with Steven. From the minute that crash into each other literally their lives are about to be tangled together and nothing will be the same. Now not only does Steven have to worry about a serial killer that keeps getting more evil each time he kills, it looks like this killer might just have Jenna in his sights. Can he protect the one woman that he has begun to care about and still catch a killer before he kills again?
This is truly an edge of your seat read. Plenty of twists and turns keep you guess who the killer is until the end of the book, and the chemistry between the two main characters will amaze you. Secondary character such as Steven's son's and aunt, as well as Jenna's family are only assests to this good read!!! Add "Have You Seen Her?" to your must read list now!
5.0 out of 5 stars Another winner,
Judy "book reader" (Cincinnati, ohio United States) - See all my reviews
Have you seen her? by Karen Rose is a sensational follow-up to her first book Don't Tell.
Special Agent Steven Thatcher is trying to get his family back on track. His youngest son hasn't been the same since he was kidnapped six months ago, his oldest has literally changed overnight. So far his middle child is fairing okay. Even without his high profile job being a widower raising three sons is a challenge. Now a serial killer has come to his small town, pulling him even further away from his family when they need him the most.
High school teacher Jenna Marshall is alarmed in the change in her model student Brad Thatcher. She arranges a meeting with his dad to try to help Brad but she wasn't prepared to be so attracted to the man. Jenna finds herself drawn more and more into Stevens's family. And unknown to her the killer is drawn to her.
This book is a well-written romantic suspense novel. It will keep you on the edge of your seat. The romance between Steven and Jenna will tug at your heard and you will find yourself racing along with them to find a future together.
I am really glad I found this author. Can't wait to read the next book.
4.0 out of 5 stars as odd as this sounds: solid serial killer romance,
Harriet Klausner - See all my reviews
High Point, North Carolina is gripped with fear as a serial killer is in action. State Bureau of Investigation Agent Steven Thatcher vows to bring down this predator killing children. He knows first hand how parents feel as his preadolescent son Nicky was abducted, but fortunately rescued though six months later mental scars remain on the lad, his dad, and his teenage brother Brad.
He takes a break from his obsession when Brad's chemistry teacher Dr. Jenna Marshall asks to see him. Brad's grades have collapsed and Jenna is worried about him. Jenna has other problems with threats from a wealthy father who demands she reinstate his failing son back on the football team. Still she finds she is attracted to Steven, who feels the same way. As they fall in love and he tries to uncover a killer with high level protection, a relationship seems impossible. Not only have both have suffered from previous relationships, his children remain traumatized by the abduction.
Though there is too much angst coming from too many directions that overwhelms the reader, but once adjusted fans will appreciate this solid serial killer romance. The story line is driven by the cast not just the lead couple. The woes of Brad and Nicky as well as relatives of victims like Sheriff Braden pull readers into the tale as much as the stars do. Jenna is a delightful ethical protagonist while Steven shows how a big person can be gentle and kind contrasting to the father of the benched football hunk. HAVE YOU SEEN HER? will please sub-genre fans as Karen Rose provides a deep tale.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can't Put It Down! Great Serial Killer/Love Story,
Wendy Miller (Overland Park, KS United States) - See all my reviews
I am an avid fan of true crime books and events involving forensics. I usually only read non-fiction books, but a friend of Karen Rose told me about his book so she let me borrow it. It is wonderfully written. The characters all have interesting detail and just enough development. The serial killer cupped with the love story was perfect. The love story was not too mushy and scenes were written very well. I could imagine this entire book in my head. Once I got to about the middle of the book I didn't want to stop reading. It was hard to put down. This will definitly not make you fall asleep while reading. This should be made into a movie. I am now going to read "Don't Tell", her first book. If any more books by Karen Rose come out in the future I will definitly read it.
4.0 out of 5 stars Wow! Read this book!,
By A Customer
I picked this book up on a whim and wasn't expecting anything more than an afternoon's diversion. I was very pleasantly surprised, and will be picking up Ms. Rose's first book immediately after posting this review. I'm very impressed with this author. Her characters are complex, their relationships aren't smooth and their reactions are completely believable. The mystery was well-done and the suspense level was high throughout. There are a lot of minor characters, and several sub-plots, a couple of which fizzle out but for the most part, Rose keeps a handle on everyone and doesn't leave any important threads dangling. I'll be eagerly looking for her next book, and hopefully many more to follow.
5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Discovery,
By A Customer
Karen Rose does a terrific job of creating realistic, complex characters. Main characters and secondary characters have real reasons for their behavior. Watching Jenna and Stephen work out their relationship while both resolving their pasts and catching a serial killer keeps the reader focused on the novel. I couldn't put it down. Rose's pacing is excellent, and she moves back and forth from the romantic leads to the mystery effortlessly.
2.0 out of 5 stars Don't Waste Your Time,
By A Customer
This novel was just silly. The identify of the serial killer was obvious despite the author's transparent attempts to lead the reader astray. The romance, much like Rose's previous book DON'T TELL, was too much too fast.
I wasted too much time reading this novel, so I don't want to waste any more time outlining its numerous faults. I'll just suffice to say I do not recommend it as a romance novel or as a mystery/suspense novel.
5.0 out of 5 stars Exciting, Chilling, and A Good Romance,
Elaine C McTyer "avid reader" (Dawson, GA USA) - See all my reviews
I bought this book because I liked "Don't Tell" so much. Ms.Rose uses the same sense of immediacy in this book as in the other. The story was very well plotted and I had no idea who the killer was until the end...Well I thought I knew. But she totally had me fooled. If you enjoy a good suspenseful mystery with a great love story, like I do, You will not be able to put it down. Better than a movie at half the price.

Burning CDs and DVDS with an encrypted filesystem
An encrypted hard disk on your server is no help if valuable data on CDs or DVDs falls into the hands of spies. We'll show you some convenient solutions for encrypting data on removable media.
You may already store sensitive data in an encrypted area of your hard disk – and if you haven't so far, you might start after reading this issue of Linux Magazine. If you use your data on the road, you might store a snapshot on a CD or copy your files to a USB stick. But you should be concerned about the risk of carrying around copies of your data. USB sticks are used just like external hard disks, so protecting a USB stick with encryption is easy. Encrypting CDs and DVDs is more difficult, but you do have some options. This article explores a pair of useful techniques for putting encrypted data on a CD or DVD. Options The simplest way to put encrypted data on a CD is to use GPG or a similar tool to individually encrypt the files and then store the results on the CD. This approach is fine for many applications, and it provides adequate security, but the risks become apparent on closer inspection. A user might manually decrypt the file and temporarily store the cleartext on a writable medium.

Ok... so I brought home our new puppy yesterday. An 8 week old Bugg (Boston x Pug) ... she is adorable. However, my 4.5 yo dog doesnt quiet buy into that idea. Couple of questions.
1. The 4 yo seems shocked by the puppy's movement. She is not very coordinated yet, so she kind of jumps and moves suddenly. That bothers the older dog and she only goes near the puppy gingerly.
2. I'm having issues with potty training. With my first dog, it was August... so we just spent a LOT of time outside until she got the hang of it. This time around, everytime I bring the puppy outside she just shivers and tries to climb my leg. So I've set up a 4'x4' playpen for her and covered it with puppy pads. So far I've contained most messes to the pen. However, she stepped in the p**p and did not seem bothered by it. Will this go away when I introduce the crate? (and Petco... could you please, pretty please, mail me my new crate?)
3. The puppy is clingy. If I put her down, especially if she's in the pen, she just whines and generally makes a racket... just let her do this? I'm trying to teach her to be by herself... but it seems she only sleeps when she is sitting on me and therefore gets super overtired when she's in the pen by herself.
Anyone else have 2 dogs? How long was it before a new "normal" was established? I seem to have forgotten how disruptive a puppy could be and the frustration over training in the cold has me more nervous and on edge than I anticipated being.
They still arent best friends... but at least the little one is sleeping on my chest and the big one is curled between my legs... so they are sleeping in proximity to each other rather than the big one keeping her distance and looking jealously at me like she did yesterday.
TIA everyone!

The role of the neutronics experimentation and analysis infusion neutronics research and development programs is discussed. A new methodology was developed to arrive at estimates to design safety factors based on the experimental and analytical results from design-oriented integral experiments. In this methodology, and for a particular nuclear response, R, a normalized density function (NDF) is constructed from the prediction uncertainties, ui's, and their associated standard deviations, ±δi's, as found in the various integral experiments where that response, R, is measured. Important statistical parameters are derived from the NDF, such as the global mean prediction uncertainty, ū, and the possible spread, ±δu, around it. The method of deriving safety factors from many possible NDFs based on various calculational and measuring methods (among other variants) is also described. Associated with each safety factor is a confidence level, designers may choose to have, that the calculated response, R, will not exceed (or will not fall below) the actual measured value. An illustrative example is given on how to construct the NDFs. The methodology is applied in two areas, namely the line-integrated tritium production rate and bulk shielding integral experiments. Conditions under which these factors could be derived and the validity of the method are discussed. The described methodology could be applied to the integral experiments proposed for the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) neutronics research and development, particularly, in deriving the required safety factors for ITER shielding.

That reminds me of this one chick that came to an ERC on her 250 sport bike style thing. Dropped the bike so many times we sent her home. The levers were so badly broken she could barely get 2 fingers on the front brake.
Many people go to the MVD (DMV) and pass the written test and get a permit. Then they ride around a bit and come to the less expensive ERC to get a card and endorsement. Probably more than half of them should be in the BRC.
Another ERC, a woman on her scooter, they were turning from where they were just stopped, single file, and getting in line to do the braking. She couldn't make the turn and t-boned a guy sitting in line. Both ended up on the ground. Smashed bikes.
Could probably write a book on just the crashes I've seen.

Baltimore Sun reporters Jeff Barker and Don Markus and producer-editor Jonas Shaffer weigh in on three topics from the past week in Maryland sports.
What has Maryland been most lacking this season in going 17-15?

Let's start with somebody to protect the basket when Maryland urgently needed a stop.
How does the song go? "You're gonna miss me when I'm gone." That's how center Alex Len might have felt in 2012-13. Sure, Len was still developing post moves and was not always a fan favorite. But he could rattle opposing scorers. His size and athleticism afforded Maryland a luxury it didn't have after he departed for the NBA – a last line of defense in the paint.
Maryland coach Mark Turgeon calls such a presence "a rim protector." How valuable do you think that would have been in Thursday's Florida State game that ended with center Boris Bojanovsky's game-clinching dunk?
Without a true center, Maryland's rebounding margin went from plus-8.6 last season to plus-3.3.
Opponents' shooting percentage increased from 38.5 percent to 41.7 percent. That's the result of many factors, of course, but the center certainly plays a role.
Maryland surrendered 67.7 points per game – up from 64.0 a year ago – and too many to suit a defense-oriented coach like Turgeon.
The Terps were not a balanced team offensively. Like many coaches, Turgeon likes to employ an inside-out offense. But Maryland's frontcourt scorers weren't effective in posting up and scoring near the basket. Maryland's points in the paint seemed to come more commonly from Dez Wells or Seth Allen driving to the basket.
Turnovers were also an issue. But the Terps actually reduced their turnovers per game from 15 in 2012-13 to 12.8 this season.
Somehow, the play that will endure for me is Charles Mitchell's shot falling off the rim at Duke, allowing the Blue Devils to escape at Cameron Indoor Stadium. Or the faulty possession arrow, denying the Terps an important opportunity in a close game.
Maryland got just two true road wins this season, the same as the previous year. A win at Duke would have been one of the most memorable road victories in years.
If invited, should Mark Turgeon approach this year's NIT any differently than he did last year?
Don Markus: A year ago, Turgeon was trying to keep the momentum going from a strong finish to the regular season. Maryland did that by reaching the semifinals of the National Invitation Tournament, getting its win total up from 17 his first season to 25 his second.
Everyone said that the Terps had progressed and pointed to this season as the year Turgeon would bring Maryland back into the NCAA tournament.
That didn't happen, as we've known for awhile and found out with some certainty when the Terps lost to Florida State in the second round of the ACC tournament in Greensboro on Thursday. Now as Maryland awaits Sunday night's NIT announcement, the feeling about the direction of the program has changed.
So should Turgeon's approach if the Terps are invited to the second-tier tournament.
Turgeon has already started to look toward next year by playing sophomore Seth Allen more at shooting guard with Roddy Peters at the point. I saw a few offensive sets with junior guard Dez Wells in the low post to take advantage of his quickness and strength.
But I'd take it a step further: if Turgeon thinks he's going to need a bigger, stronger lineup in the Big Ten than he did in the ACC, then he should see what he's going to get by playing Shaquille Cleare and Charles Mitchell together, or Mitchell and Damonte Dodd, something I suggested earlier this season when Cleare was struggling.

Exotic bacteria that do not rely on oxygen may have played an important role in determining the composition of Earth's early atmosphere, according to a theory that UChicago researcher Albert Colman is testing in the scalding hot springs of a volcanic crater in Siberia.
He has found that bacteria at the site produce as well as consume carbon monoxide, a surprising twist that scientists must take into account as they attempt to reconstruct the evolution of Earth's early atmosphere.
Colman, an assistant professor in geophysical sciences, joined an American-Russian team in 2005 working in the Uzon Caldera of eastern Siberia's Kamchatka Peninsula to study the microbiology and geochemistry of the region's hot springs.
Colman and his colleagues focused on anaerobic carboxydotrophs microbes with a physiology as exotic as their name. They use carbon monoxide mostly for energy, but also as a source of carbon for the production of new cellular material.
This carbon monoxide-based physiology results in the microbial production of hydrogen, a component of certain alternative fuels. The research team thus also sought to probe biotechnological applications for cleaning carbon monoxide from certain industrial waste gases and for biohydrogen production.
"We targeted geothermal fields," Colman says, "believing that such environments would prove to be prime habitat for carboxydotrophs due to the venting of chemically reduced, or in other words, oxygen-free and methane-, hydrogen-, and carbon dioxide-rich volcanic gases in the springs."
The team did discover a wide range of carboxydotrophs. Paradoxically, Colman found that much of the carbon monoxide at the Kamchatka site was not bubbling up with the volcanic gases; instead "it was being produced by the microbial community in these springs," he says. His team began considering the implications of a strong microbial source of carbon monoxide, both in the local springs but als

Oh, drama. A woman has come forward claiming she had sex with footballer Ashley Cole, who is married to Girls Aloud singer Cheryl Cole. Aimee Walton, a single mom, tells The Sun (of course) she met Ashley while he was out clubbing with his friends. For those who don't have the stomach or interest to read the entire interview, The Sun has provided a handy bullet-point play-by-play of Ashley's sordid trajectory that night. He allegedly:
CHATTED up girls as he downed vodka cocktails;
SLAPPED her bottom so hard his platinum wedding ring left a mark;
VOMITED in a girl's car – then said she should feel "privileged";
MADE absurd claims that Girls Aloud singer Cheryl "didn't mind" him cheating as long as he kept it secret, and
INTERRUPTED their sex session to be sick again.
While describing her ride on the Vomit Comet in explicit detail, Walton manages to get some disses in on Ashley's package and physique. "He knew exactly what he was doing and was pretty good, despite not being very big," she reveals. She later added: "For a footballer, I didn't think he was in great shape. His legs weren't that big and he wasn't completely toned up top."
Poor Cheryl. She had to have known the slappers would have been on her hubby like termites on a fallen tree. It begs the question: what would Tanya Turner do in this situation? Well, she'd probably already have boinked her way through the Chelsea football club, slashed the poor heffa's tires, filed divorce papers, and planned her wedding with the team captain by now. Too bad John Terry's married, but that never stopped Tanya…God, I miss Footballers Wive$.

I have owned a the EOS 6d for around 4 months now and overall I find it to be a great camera. Image quality is top notch even in low light. What canon has done here is allowed people to fully exploit the full range of canon lenses and accessories in a way that was not really achievable with an APSc sized sensor.
Supplied software
The Canon EOS 6D comes with the 'Canon EOS Digital Solution Disk' which includes:
- Digital Photo Professional 3.12 - Advanced image workflow and editing, specialized in Raw conversion with a range of adjustment and output options.
- ImageBrowser EX 1.0 - Easy to use image browsing and organization with a unique interface. Includes rudimentary image editing, printing and e-mail. This latest version of the software also provides some very basic video editing.
- EOS Utility 2.12 - A tool to download images as well as control the camera remotely and adjust its settings when tethered to the computer.
- PhotoStitch 3.2 - Panorama stitching utility.
- Picture Style Editor 1.2 - Utility to create custom picture styles that can be uploaded to the camera.
- EOS Sample Music - Royalty free audio files to upload to the camera and use as background music.
- CameraWindow - Tool for transferring images to a computer
Digital Photo Professional is an image workflow and RAW conversion application that provides for the browsing and management of images in a folder structure as well as tagging, rotation etc. In addition it also provides an extensive range of RAW conversion features which include digital exposure compensation, white balance, tone curve, color, picture style, sharpness and lens correction parameters.
A number of different tools can be accessed from the tools menu. The Quick Check tool allows you to browse through a selection of images and assign check marks to them. The Trimming tool can be used to apply a crop to an image (the image itself is not modified, this is simply saved in the recipe).
The Stamp tool works in a similar way to the clone stamp or healing brush in Photoshop (although it is primary designed for the removal of light or dark blotches).The Rename tool can be used to change the filename of a selection of images based on a rule set. Finally you can convert multiple RAW files at a time using the batch conversion tool.
Digital Photo Pro includes a fairly comprehensive lens correction module which allows you to correct your raw files for vignetting (peripheral illumination, purple fringing (color blur) and chromatic aberration based on lens profiles, offering greater control than the 6D's in-camera corrections. For the vignetting, CA and distortion correction you have sliders which allow you to apply a partial correction between 0 and 100%. There is also a slider to indicate the subject distance the image was taken at which helps optimizing the distortion correction.
|The Lens aberration correction dialogue opens as a separate window within DPP. It contains the full image view and a magnification area at the top right. There is also the option for a grid-overlay which is useful when correcting distortion.
Raw file conversion
As is normal in our reviews we like to compare the camera maker's supplied raw conversion software with competing third party raw converters. Here we've picked Adobe Camera Raw and DxO Optics Pro alongside the Canon software. We'll compare these three converters to the camera's JPEG engine to see how each of them pulls detail out of the images.
- JPEG - Large/Fine, Default settings
- DPP - Digital Photo Professional 3.12
- ACR - Adobe Camera Raw 7.3
- DxO - DxO Optics Pro 8.1.2
Sharpness and Detail
Canon's Digital Photo Professional emulates the output of the camera's JPEG engine very closely. Color rendition and tonality are virtually identical. DPP does apply a touch more default sharpening, resulting in images that are - at a pixel-level - a little crisper.
Adobe Camera Raw's default output is less contrasty and benefits from subtle, small-radius sharpening. This results in a more appealing image with natural tonality and an increase in fine detail. DxO's output comes very close to the saturation and contrast of the in-camera JPEG, while offering a greater degree of high contrast fine edge detail than the other raw converters. Keep in mind though that we're looking at 100% crops here. Small differences like this in detail rendering really only come into play if you plan to display your images at very large sizes.
|JPEG out of camera, High quality setting (all settings default)
ISO 100 studio scene 100% crop
|Digital Photo Professional Raw ->JPEG (Default settings)
ISO 100 studio scene 100% crop
|Adobe ACR 7.3 Raw ->JPEG (Default settings)
ISO 100 studio scene 100% crop
|DxO Optics Pro 8.12 Raw ->JPEG (Default settings)
ISO 100 studio scene 100% crop
The resolution chart confirms the observations we've made when looking at the crops above. DPP applies more aggressive sharpening than the out-of-camera JPEGs (notice the more prominent edge halos) while Adobe ACR's sharpening is more subtle with a smaller radius, resulting in the ability to resolve marginally finer detail. And DxO's sharpening again gets the nod with slightly crisper edge separation, all the while avoiding edge halos. All three raw converters do a good job of handling moiré, as its not significantly more prominent than in the camera-generated JPEG.
|JPEG from camera
|Digital Photo Professional
|Adobe Camera Raw 7
|DxO Optics Pro 8
Real-world advantages
While Canon provides generally pleasing image processing defaults at low ISO settings, one of the benefits to shooting in raw mode is the ability to fine-tune settings post-capture in order to gain maximum image quality. With custom sharpening settings you can enhance fine detail while avoiding edge halos, as you can see in the 100% crops of tree branches below.
Chromatic aberration (CA) is automatically reduced in JPEGs when a registered Canon lens is attached to the camera but it isn't always completely eliminated, and of course can still be a problem with third-party lenses. Shooting in Raw mode allows you to effectively take care of any CA you might see in your shots along high contrast edges. We shot this scene with a 35mm lens at F1.4 deliberately to induce CA (in effect overstressing the automatic JPEG CA reduction).
|Camera JPEG
Canon EF 35mm F1.4 L @ F1.4, ISO 100
|Raw + ACR 7.3 Custom WB, Sharpening: Amount 65 and Radius .8, CA removal enabled with the Purple slider set to 3 (all other settings at their defaults).
|100% crops, ISO 100
In low light conditions, having access to the raw file allows for a more subtle approach to sharpening and noise reduction, when compared to the camera's default settings. You also have the luxury of adjusting white balance, which can be a challenge for the camera's auto capabilities under incandescent light.
|Camera JPEG
|Raw + ACR 7.3 Custom WB, Exposure +30, Contrast +19, Highlights -50, Whites -20, Blacks -12, Luminance NR +20, Luminance Detail +20, Sharpening: Amount 45, Radius .6 (all other settings at their defaults)
|100% crops, ISO 12,800
The image above was shot handheld at ISO 12,800 under indoor lighting. As you can see, the 6D's auto white balance has an overly warm cast. In addition, Canon's somewhat aggressive default NR setting, combined with JPEG compression, leads to softer detail rendering and some false color artifacts. By making relatively simple and quick adjustments (listed above) in ACR's Basic and Detail panels we can achieve a more neutral result and a more crisp rendering of fine details.
Raw files for download
Don't just take our word for it though. Below you can download EOS 6D raw files of 'real-world' scenes for yourself, and run them through your preferred raw conversion software and settings. If you want to take a closer look at the 6D's studio scene shots, you can always download original raw files from our image quality comparison raw page.

Stathis's Portfolio
Hello! For the past 12 years I have been practicing industrial design. Having graduated from Syracuse U. design school I immediately got to work for various design studios in the States as well as Greece (I am Greek)..
Well, I have finally decided to take the leap and go for a job in concept art. That has been my dream since college and after 12 years of waiting here's a body of work that I have been amassing for the past 6 months..
I would like to be critiqued by El Coro and Sterling Hundley on Monday and by John Foster and Carl Dobsky on Friday. I have already paid tuition.
So here we go...
Thank you

From the publication of his first book in 1926, Langston Hughes was hailed as the poet laureate of black America, the first to commemorate the experience of African Americans in a voice that no reader, black or white, could fail to hear. Lyrical and pungent, passionate and polemical, this volume is a treasure-an essential collection of the work of a poet whose words have entered our common language.
About the Author
Born in Joplin, Missouri, in 1902, the O Henry of Harlem, moved all over the country and settled eventually in New York City. He was a prolific writer, best known for his novels, plays and columns and one of the earliest innovators of jazz poetry.
