Aaron Penberthy to make comeback at Redruth
Posted: February 01, 2013|
Cornish Pirates fly-half Aaron Penberthy will make his long-awaited comeback from a groin injury during a loan move to Redruth.
The 20-year-old has made 11 appearances for the Pirates this season. His last came in their Championship defeat to Bedford Blues in November.
However, he has been undergoing rehabilitation since being diagnosed with osteitis pubis – an inflammation of the pelvic area – which affected his ability to train and play matches throughout the current campaign.
After a successful recovery period, he is now set to feature for his former club Redruth in their National League Two South match against league leaders Worthing this weekend.
Penberthy scored 247 points for Redruth in the 2010-11 season before earning a move to Pirates in September 2011.
Redruth coach Steve Evans said: "He is a quality player. He trained with us on Tuesday and he stood out really well and showed the experience he has obviously gained from playing with the Pirates.
"He is still coming back from the injury, so he will be playing bits and bobs over the next few weeks until he is ready to start a game.
"For us, it is a bonus. It is another quality player in a quality back line that we have already got.
"He will probably start on the bench this weekend, just to get him some game time."
Penberthy could also feature for Redruth in next week's derby against the Cornish All Blacks at Polson Bridge.
"There is no set time frame for how long we will have him on loan at the moment," said Evans. "It could be two, three or four weeks, it fully depends on how he goes and what injuries there are at Pirates."

I still don't understand why they won't unlock phones that are still on contract. If you take it to another carrier, you would have to pay an ETF anyway.
I'm still on contract with my iPhone 4. I would have to pay an ETF to unlock so I can use it in the UK but still want to stay on AT&T while home in the U.S. Now tell me that makes sense.
AT&T begins unlocking qualified, off-contract iPhones
As promised, AT&T has begun unlocking qualified, off-contract iPhones. iMore forum member iPhonejunkie3 reports that the process wasn't swift, but it was effective:
Today, 4/8/12, I called AT&T to unlock my contract free 3GS. Took 30 minutes on T's end to get the unlock code, and only 5 minutes to perform a backup and restore via iTunes. Interestingly enough, the phone number shows as NA in the iTunes screen. Same IMEI and ICCID if you click on the same spot.
According to AT&T, the requirements to receive an official unlock are:
A customer's account must be in good standing, their device cannot be associated with a current and active term commitment on an AT&T customer account, and they need to have fulfilled their contract term, upgraded under one of our upgrade policies or paid an early termination fee.
AT&T enters to iPhone's IMEI number into Apple's database and the next time the iPhone is connected to iTunes, Apple will authorize and perform the unlock. It's an unusual but fairly straightforward process.
Again, kudos to AT&T for seeing the light and providing this service to their customers.
If you're calling AT&T today to request your official iPhone unlock, jump into our forums and let us know how it goes for you.

AT&T begins unlocking qualified, off-contract iPhones
I still don't understand why they won't unlock phones that are still on contract. If you take it to another carrier, you would have to pay an ETF anyway.
They don't want you to do this, and they don't want to give you an upper hand when reselling the phone.
I buy a new iPhone every year, and sell mine as soon as I'm sure a new one's release date is within a month. I wish I could get them to unlock my iPhone, but I doubt they'll be willing.
Now, I have checked with AT&T, recently, (2 months ago) about paying my ETF on one of my lines (just because. . .) and I was told by two different operators that I could not do this and keep my current service/status with AT&T Wireless. I was told that if I did this, then It would terminate that line. (And I would have 30-days to pick my number up, again)
OK, so I was on the phone for ~15-20 minutes. I have an iPhone 4 for which I paid my ETF last year when I had to cancel my contract as I was moving to Spain, and an iPhone 3G prior to that (which I upgraded to the 4). I requested the unlock for both.
First for the iPhone 4, they asked for the IMEI and they checked my eligibility. Then they submitted a case, saying that they need to get approval to issue the unlock code, and that I should expect the resolution of the case by April 16th!!!! So I guess I'll have to wait... well, I've waited this long I guess I don't mind another week...
Then they asked for the iPhone 3G IMEI and checked my eligibility again, and submitted another case with the same resolution date.
Let's see how this pans out...
license suspended. gienttg into auto accidents are serious situations. you need to follow these steps if you have been in one. car insurance companies work by a specific formula which calculates quotes based on factors such as age, type of vehicle, driving record, credit scores and myriad risk
Today I went to my local AT&T store to look at some new phones and inquire about this new unlocking policy, and the AT&T staff were totally clueless and unaware of it. They said it was news to them. So I showed them this article, and a few other articles relevant to it. They were actually pretty happy about it too, as several of them had iPhones off contract, but still SIM-locked to AT&T. So I made their day. LOL
When I called, they did ask for my account but I haven't used any service from AT&T so they couldn't find my account. All that really matters is that you have you IMEI.
Well, I wish it went that well for me. Sadly, at&t wants me to fax a receipt to them before they will issue the unlock code. Sadly I don't have a fax machine at home so hopefully one of the free online fax services will do the trick. Lucky for me I have the receipt!!
I will pay 15 USD to the person who submits my IMEI in order to unlock my email@example.com
I called att and they said that in order to unlock my iPhone 3G, the customer who owned the phone would have to call att and have it unlocked. Plus, the account has to be in good standing and the phone off-contract. I bought the phone on ebay so I can't do anything about it.
This story is not true because it seems as if anyone could unlock their phones. I think somebody needs to check their sources.
How is this story not true? It says "AT&T begins unlocking qualified, off-contract iPhones" which is exactly what they're doing. Note it says "qualified" and "off-contract". It also outlines AT&T's conditions pretty clearly: "A customer's account must be in good standing, their device cannot be associated with a current and active term commitment on an AT&T customer account, and they need to have fulfilled their contract term, upgraded under one of our upgrade policies or paid an early termination fee."
I wonder what it means maximum Five unlocks in a year? Just how many unlocks does one IPhone need? What happens if one decides that T Mobile has a pay as you go plan at 100.00 good for a year and one switches from the AT&T's current best fort two IPhones for 104.00 or so per month we are paying now and hardly use the service.
Wonder if the change can go seamlessly to the T Mobile for 8.50 per month?
I really do not want to leave AT&T but if it had not been for the love of the I Phone they would have made it easy to leave them in the dust. We have been their customer for the past 40+ years except fora while when we had no choice about it. We really do not mind paying for a service we can use well, but it just so happens the reception where we live really sucks, but We have put up with it for the past 6 + years. We will wait and see how this unlock will help us to save some Dollars.
We sure could have used this unlock a couple of years back when we had lots of consulting work overseas and bought a phone for every country we worked in due to the very high price for use of theIPhone. Before I leave I will still try to make a better deal than we have right now. I gave them enough feedback and they just might come up with something to match the competition.

Meachem's long catch wasn't a result of busted coverage. Jeez, you sound like that idiot Collinsworth. The commentators even replayed the clip to show that all day Brees was baiting Head and Shoulders into that very play. They even talked about it earlier when Head and Shoulders jumped every route thrown underneath. They said that Brees mentioned Head and Shoulders might think he sees something that the Saints don't want him to see, and than, boom, they hit him. Brees stared down Colston, and as soon as Head and Shoulders took one half step forward he hit Meachem. Give Brees his credit where it's due.
Payton, and Brees are learning how to play with our defense. Our defense is playing great football, and has shown that if you have patience, your time will come. Brees and Payton were so worried about scoring 40 points that they were forcing the ball. Brees was throwing picks, instead of throwing the ball away. Payton was calling passes when he should have called a run. There was always a since of if we just had a three and out, we can't have another one. Cleveland, Panthers, Cardinals, all played patient football, horrible patient offense, and still beat us. It's nice to see a coach, and player grow, and understand that each year, and each team is different. Way to go Defense, sacrificing your bodies every week.
What a joke, my wifes a teacher, I wish she would get paid more, but there are more teachers who don't do their job, than the ones who do. How about we get rid of the welfare state, food stamps, and wic programs to pay for the teacher raises. How about getting rid of the thousands of unneeded government jobs in Louisiana, full of 90,000 a year janitors, and 250,000 a year retired fire chief pensions. State Departments of education do absolutely nothing, get rid of it.
I don't remember what game it was, but it was either the cardinals or panthers. on 2nd and 16 payton ran a play leftside run with ladell betts, was gain of 2 yards. That's not really a I'm trying to win play, that's a lets play field position, next play lance moore dropped a pass 14 yards down the field two yards before the first down. Coach payton has abandoned the run game completely, and at times abandoned the pass when it was the only thing working. The Atlanta game overtime, driving, completing every pass drew throws, 45 yards away, and Payton shuts down the offense, runs two garbage runs plays, realizes he needs more yards, pass to henderson on screen for ten yards, kicks on first down. Every Atlanta fan in the building was hoping that the Saints didn't continue to pass the ball.
Hey Gumbo, If we can't contain the run we will not make the Playoffs? We couldn't contain the run last year, and we won the superbowl. What does it matter when a team can run on you and your team can score in 10 seconds or less. Running is a time management thing, used to control the clock, and the lead. If your team runs the ball for 15 minutes and score a touchdown that's great. If my team throws one pass to tie the score, then it's for nothing. Ask the Titan's about how that running game is working out.
WOW!!!! You question all of Payton's first rounders? Really? No matter how you want to look at it, all of the first rounders of Payton's tenure with the Saints were instrumental in Our Superbowl run. Malcolm Jenkins had interceptions, and key fumble recovery, not to mention amazing coverage against Peyton Manning, in which he nearly intercepted him twice. Reggie Bush's game against Arizona got us to the NFC championship, plus his touchdown against Minnesota that was reviewed, and gave us the lead. Meachem had a 7 game streak last year where he led the NFL in touchdowns. Sedrick Ellis is our best D lineman, and one of the top ten tackles in the league. You obviously don't know what you're talking about, so I'll just leave it at that.
STICKS AND STONES. ....What's next? Make Gossip illegal? Is it illegal to talk negatively about someone on the phone? How about written letters sent through the mail? Where is the fine line? This is a violation of our God Given rights. Not everyone is going to like what everyone says all the time. Criticism builds character. You don't have the right to not be offended. If two 16 year old teen agers can legally consent to sex, why can't the same two 16 year old teens share images of themselves. Who defines what is inappropriate, and what is ok? This law gives government more power under the guise of protection. Look at the fines, wow, that's a lot of money to rake in every time someone gets their feelings hurt. Government is strapped for cash, what's next Demolition still recording systems fining you on the spot when you curse, or are rude to someone? Wait, that's already happening in Europe.
Charles "I won't cover the backside, can't keep contain overpaid" Grant is out of the line up? Injured Reserve? Charleston, Hargrove, and McCray are better anyway.
Cowboys played their best game of the year and almost lost, Saints played their worse and almost won. I can only pray that we see the Cowboys in the playoffs.
You do not have the right to not be offended. If you do not like it, look away, it's freedom of religion, not freedom of all religions with the exception of Christians. When I say Merry Christmas I'm speaking to people who believe in Christ, I don't freak out when I see a Star of David, or a happy hannakah sign. That's the problem with you liberals, you believe everyone else has rights except Christians. You want everyone to tolerate you, but you yourselves can not tolerate other peoples beliefs. No one is forcing anything on you, look away, gives us the same respect you would like, and freedom to express ourselves.
This is a Christian nation. We are majority Christian. In God We Trust is on our currency. The men and women who founded this country were Christians. This doesn't mean you have to be a Christian to live here, and this does not mean that Christianity is law, what is does mean is that we have Freedom of Religion, and Christmas is for Christians. If this is not a Christian nation, that prove your point by not celebrating Christmas, and don't buy your children any gifts.
If you don't have anything nice to say, than shut tf up. You're a tool. If you didn't like what Heath had to say, than move on. That's the problem with you liberals, you scream about equal rights, but get offended when someone expresses themselves. Merry Christmas.
have to disagree with your statement about the penalties. The facemask, was not enough to get called, he didn't use it to tackle, didn't pull him by the facemask, plus Redman had Ellis's facemask in his hand. So, no one got away with one there. And on the pass interference penalty, was pretty clear that Grimes reached around with his outside hand, and twisted Meachem from the ball.
rarely does Brady hit Moss in stride when they go deep. The Fault most corners make is that once they see Randy streaking up the field the run to him, and never look back, most often, if not every time Randy Moss will just sit and let the ball land in his hands when the corner could have turned around and made the interception. If Randy hits that fly route, run that way and look back for the ball, similar to what Delhomme does with Smith.
It's about playmakers, and match ups. Do the Jets have enough playmakers, do the Jets match up one for one with the Saints? No. Is Cotchery better than any of the receivers the Saints have shut down this year? No. Revis can't cover Colston, Henderson, Meachem, Shockey, and Bush every play. I see a blow out, and many turnovers for Rookie Quarterback Mark Sanchez.
sorry, but at 5'11 Greer is one of the tallest starting cornerbacks in the nfl.
Come on, does anyone even watch these games before they write. First Texans drive they ran 3 step drops, and most of the routes were to whoever Troy Evans was covering. Three step drops, quick outs to the TE's, and Johnson. Saints defense looked great. Let's not forget the 4th down and 3rd that would have been a field goal in real season play. Hargroves penalty wasn't a blow to the head, it was incidental barely facemask, and considering the new facemask rule, it wasn't even that. The refs blew the call, but they were in training also.
plain and simple, if you are going to have a banned substance list, and you intentionally keep a known banned product off of the list, you lose. The only way the NFL is right in this situation is if they didn't have a list of products known to include banned substances. Not to mention, the banned substance is used to masked steroids, once the substance is verified, then there is further testing for steroids, in which there were none. The NFL needs to bend on this one, it was clearly not intentional.
bruthaman1, I just can't respect the team that destroyed Barry Sanders, and his inevitable NFL record rushing title. Man gave his heart, and soul, and all you did was ride on his back. Only other team to shame a player like that was the Dolphins, and Marino. As far as 1st round bust, I'd be willing to compare Lions vs. Saints pick for pick with you anytime, and I'll spot you the Charles Rogers, Mike Williams incident.
this is another trick. The tax on greenhouse emissions is not intended to stop, or prevent emissions, it is meant to profit from the fact that every business, and every person will be accountable for this tax. Just like the cigarette tax, and the proposed fast food tax. The government imposes these taxes under the guise of protecting us, and wanting to help us live a healthier life, but the truth is that the government takes this income, and establishes huge government bureaucracies, and bloated programs that depend on this income. Just as the most recent example in Oregon. So many people switch to more fuel efficient vehicles that the State of Oregon wasn't bringing in the tax revenue it once did from the Gas tax. So an Oregon politician was attempting to change the gas tax to a mileage tax that registered your mileage driven between fill ups. Making it completely worthless to have a more fuel efficient vehicle, and penalizing those who drive more often, like people who work every day. The Federal Government will grow so fat and bloated from these green house emissions taxes, that a conversion to 100% renewable energy will cripple economy, and government funds. So what's the answer? Just keep burning oil? No. The answer is with the people. Stop propping up these automakers, (GM), let the market determine. If an electric car was invented that you could plug into your outlet at home, everyone would buy it. Tesla will have such a car in 2011, the question will be, how do you tax an electric car? I'll tell you how. You tax the registration of the vehicle, you tax the mileage, you tax the electric bill of the home owner, and just when you think you were able to sneak past that tax, the government will impose general tax to account for all the vehicle charges it can't document.

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak says a new analysis of satellite data indicates the missing Malaysia Airlines plane plunged into a remote corner of the Indian Ocean.
The news is a major breakthrough in the unprecedented two-week struggle to find out what happened to Flight 370, which disappeared shortly after takeoff from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 passengers and crew aboard on March 8.
Dressed in a black suit, Najib announced the news "with deep sadness and regret" in a brief news conference late Monday night.
He said Malaysia Airlines has informed the families of passengers of the plane's fate.
Najib said the information was based on an unprecedented analysis of satellite data from Inmarsat.

JF Ptak Science Books LLC Post 575
The ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator And Computer, b. 1943-45) was, basically, the world's first operational, high-speed digital computer, and the father of the computer industry. What we see to the left is the floor plan for the computer-with-no-monitor—I know to most people working today with a computer that the idea of a "floor plan" for anything that is not in a dark place at NSA is not easily conceivable. The 30-ton, 18,000 tube, 125 KHz ENIAC's space was about 1800 square feet, where it was able to add about 5000 numbers/second, which was vastly faster than anything else in existence. It operated with 70,000 resistors, 10,000 capacitors, 5 million hand-soldered joints and 6,000 manual switches. It was a magnificent achievement.
There are many sites dedicated to the history of the ENIAC—all I want to do here is surface this detailed floor plan of the computer, which seems not to be online. The diagram comes from an article by J.K. Brainerd and T.K. Sharpless (Sharp brain!), "The ENIAC", from the February 1948 issue of Electrical Engineering, which defines the machine and its components in full. The abstract states: "The ENIAC is the only electronic large-scale general-purpose digital computing device now in operation. Its speed of operation compares favorably with other electric and mechanical computers. Developed under wartime pressures, it has been of value not only in producing results but in pointing the way toward improvements for future designs." Indeed. The authors, both of whom worked on the construction of the machine from 1943 onwards, describe it in the following ten points:
"1. Large-scale 2.General purpose 3. Digital 4. Electronic 5. Uses 10-digit numbers 6. Uses decimal system 7. High speed 8. Synchronous operation 9. Some parallel operations possible 10. Complete flexibility within limits of programming capacity" (page 170).
The authors make the following (qualified) understatement: "electrical
engineers in the
have had a major interest in development of large-scale computing devices" mentioning the major players as MIT, Moore
The computers in operation from 1938 to 1948 include the following alphabetical hodgepodge: Z1 Z2 Z3 Z4, ABC, Bell Model II, S1, Mark I, Mark II, Elliot 152, ARC, Mark II, SSEM, and the more poetic Colossus and Demon. (Zuse Z1 1938; Atanasoff ABC 1939; Zuse Z2 1939; Bell Labs Complex Calculator aka Model I1940; Zuse Z3 1941; Zuse S1 1942; Bell Labs Model II; 1943 Bletchley Colossus Mark I 1943; Zuse S2 1943; Bletchley Colossus Mark II 1944; Harvard Mark I 1944; Zuse Z4 1944; Bell Labs Model IV 1945; Bell Labs Computer Model V 1947; Elliott 152 1947; Elliott 153 1947; Moore School ENIAC 1947; Birkbeck ARC 1948; Harvard Mark II 1948; Manchester University SSEM 1948; NSA DEMON 1948.)

TSA explores using commercial data to expand PreCheck program
Jan 30, 2013 12:03 pm
Skift Take
Using credit checks or other commercial data as a security barometer? TSA may be stepping into a minefield with this one.
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) held an industry day to explore the possibility of using commercial data to prescreen air passengers and thus speed their physical screening at U.S. airports.
TSA has been putting trusted travelers through expedited screening through its PreCheck program but the agency is now seeking ways to expand the population of travelers eligible for faster and lighter screening.
Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said it is the goal of TSA to make half of the US population eligible for expedited screening within two years' time…the agency asked private companies for assistance in figuring out how to do that.

Customer Satisfaction Measurements
Tracking your customers' feelings is essential for creating an inviting environment that encourages customers to return often. In order to know that this data is being put to good use, you must be familiar with what to do with customer satisfaction measurements. The following article details how to best analyze and incorporate information collected from customer satisfaction scales.
Get the data
Customer satisfaction measurements often track feelings quantitatively. While this makes analysis of large data sets quite easy, it also hides a lot of important qualitative data. As such, questions on customer satisfaction surveys are most informative when they are highly specific. Asking how satisfied a customer feels is imprecise and vague, while asking how certain aspects of your business make the customer feel is significantly more informative.
Read between the lines
When surveys allow more open-ended responses, you can find what is highly appreciated or needs the most work by searching for themes and keywords in customers' responses. If a large number of respondents complain of poor customer service, you can recognize the major problem area. Even for numerically-based scales, searching for commonalities in answers can help localize issues. Factor analysis highlights areas of common concern and potentially guides you to the most efficient solutions.
Know your audience
Considering the personality of your customers can go a long way. By determining which components are most important to your customers, you can determine how to best structure your business. Different populations of customers demand different focuses, so understanding the characteristics of your target demographic improves your business.
Look on the inside
Internal measures are a useful gauge of customer satisfaction rather than customer self-report measures. Tracking things like call hold times or repeat customers offers a strong metric of customer satisfaction. For example, if you find that customers rarely return a second time, this suggests there is room for improvement. Internal measures provide an additional source of data to both company management and employees.

Veronica Deramous case: Woman who tried to cut baby from other woman's womb attacked in court
A woman who last year was kidnapped, held against her will and nearly had her baby carved from her womb tried to attack her attacker in Prince George's County courtroom on Friday.
Teka Adams brought her 10-month-old child Miracle to court to watch Veronica Deramous plead guilty to first-degree assault and enter an Alford plea to false imprisonment for the December 2009 incident.
But when Deramous, 40, told the court that the attack was the culmination of a six-month scheme allegedly hatched by Adams to sell her baby to Deramous for $5,000, Adams snapped. She jumped up from her seat, stepping over her baby, and charged at Deramous, screaming, yelling and trying to punch her. Adams' father grabbed her by the arm and sheriff's deputies pushed her back. Adams' father was able to wrestle her to the ground.
Prosecutors say they have no evidence to support Deramous' claim that Adams had agreed to sell her unborn baby. Deramous claimed she had been making payments to Adams after the two met in a bar six months before the attack. Adams denies the claim, and detectives could find no evidence of payments, or of the two having met before December 2009.
The defense said Deramous lured Adams from a homeless shelter in the District to her Suitland apartment with the promise of clothes and diapers for her unborn baby. Deramous then struck Adams over the head and tied her up, keeping her there for days. Deramous claims she doesn't remember using a box cutter to slice open Adams' abdomen to try to remove the child. Adams was able to escape and seek help. Her baby was delivered by emergency cesarean section.
After her outburst, Adams left the courthouse without comment. Before the hearing, she told ABC7 she was hoping for justice.
"It's another one off the street, another bad person is off the street," Adams said. "I just hope she gets what she deserves, you know, because what she did was very damaging."
Adams says she brought Miracle to court, to show Deramous what was almost almost lost.
"She sleeps, she smiles. She's real happy," Adams said. "She's a real happy baby."
Adams has gotten married since the attack and brought her husband, her parents and her therapist to court.
The judge sentenced Deramous to 25 years in prison for the assault charge and life in prison with all but 15 years suspended for the false imprisonment charge. She could be free on parole in 12 and a half years.

We have been able to obtain X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (XPCS) quality data from the Ag (001) and Ag (111) surfaces at two different locations along the specular scattering rod. We observe dynamic behavior related to temperature and gas-phase composition. We will present the methods of the XPCS analysis routines, as they have been adapted to this specific system, and the preliminary results for the dynamics, such as step edge motion, island growth, and surface phase transitions, of the Ag surface features in these different conditions. These dynamics are also q dependent and vary from slow at low q, to faster dynamics at positions near the Ag (001) anti-Bragg scattering position where the experimental sensitivity is sufficient to detect changes at a monolayer level. This indicates that the dynamics involved are occurring right at the surface and do not involve multiple layers. These results will then be compared to our recent similar measurements on the Au (001) surface [1].\\[4pt] [1] M.S. Pierce, V. Komanicky, A. Barbour, D.C. Hennessy, A. Sandy, and H.

Ok the joker takes no dmg and 1 shots me no matter what I do. Help?
Ok the joker takes no dmg and 1 shots me no matter what I do. Help?
Joker takes damage in fact he is extremely weak in terms of health, that is why is attacks do a lot of damage
Screenshots? I find The Joker to be a bit lacking now actually. After constant small nerfs to his moves and his ult, combined with the slowing of his Q, he is lackluster as a Blaster now. He still makes a great Controller though. If he is taking no damage and one-shotting you, then he has a serious level/gold advantage and there may be some internet issues and/or PC issues at play as well.
Almost 12,000 Crisis Coins gone to waste...I am a sad panda.
V3G3TA: "Im pretty confident about my member...probly why I use Ham, and focus on the W, not the kdr...big guy thrwin his meat around sayin stuff. one really understands...with hair fom the 80 s...yep.. that ham makes me feel li myself"
I really don t think the joker as op and Mr punchy is a dodgeable skill shot. For him to OS you he need to be quite fed.
PS: beware a screenshot is mostly irrelevant because it just shows the dominance of a champ in game not his op potential.
E.g: lets imagine a broken champ with stat of lvl 20 at lvl 1. He stomps you. You screen shot and complain. Ppl look at it. See he got 20 kill over you (cause he was op). Conclusion we just said you fed the champ thus he stomp you not that he was broken.
Joker is fine, he just has a weak early game. But once he has dreamstone he shouldn't have that much of a will problem. His punchys are gonna take a use to

iPhone 3GS on sale for $0 at Bell, Telus
AT&T has been offering iPhone 3GS at $49 lately but Bell and Telus in Canada now have it on sale for $0 for a limited time. Sure it comes with a typically ridiculous 3-year contract, sure you can get the much better iPhone 4 on sale on the same networks for $159, sure you can get an unlocked iPhone 3GS straight from Apple for $549, but if you absolutely, positively have to have an iPhone for FREE (with contract!) get on over to Bell or Telus before the sale ends.
Anyone think iPhone 3GS at $0 is compelling? Want it on your network?

iPhone 3GS on sale for $0 at Bell, Telus
Who cares about when the iPhone 5 is coming out. The 3GS is a great phone. The problem is in Apples software updates. Well not a problem in that we get new features or fixes but the dumbing down of previous devices. Not that they don't get all the goodies because I don't expect apple to give goodies forever but something funky always seems to suffer. I had a 3G for 8 months, then a 3GS for about 6 months and now a 4g. I buy from craigslist then resell when I'm done. I only upgraded to the iPhone 4 because I got it from a desperate person for $250 about 4-5 months ago. I will keep thus phone for a very long time. I love it. I do know that before it gives out Apple will dumb it down. Oh well. That being said I would not buy 3GS even for free with a contract. Buy the time the next iOS comes out I think the 3GS will suffer big time. It 3 years it will be useless. The think us apples makes great products that last a good while. Waiting to see how my iPad 1 will get the smack down.
About 200 bucks no contract seem fair for a 32gb 3GS at this point. The phone is still useful as an ahem phone and music player and wifi only wifi browser with a prepaid plan like those offered by H2O wireless.
3 YEARS? I wonder how bad the ETF would be if you had to get out of that contract.
I love Canada dearly, but you have crazy phone contract lengths.
We DO have 1, 2 year and monthly contracts as well.. In fact where I am in Saskatchewan, IMO, Sasktel currently offers the best wireless data plan and speeds in north America ($60 month unlimited HSPA+ internet, unlimited eve/weekends after 6pm/300 daytime min)
Speed wise, I consistently get 6Mps+ DL/ 3Mbps+ speeds with full bars.
Considering how HUGE Saskatchewan is coupled with its really low population, this is quite a feat...
Big woop. Sign up for the unlimited plan with SmarTone-Vodafone in Hong Kong and you can get an iPhone 4 (16GB) for free; not to mention the monthly fee is US$51 for an ACTUAL unlimited data plan.
sorry wrong page commented!!

Former Duke player Abdelnaby interviews Coach K
A part of three Final Four teams for Duke from 1988-90, Alaa Abdelnaby brought a unique perspective to his work assignment last month.
Abdelnaby, a college basketball analyst for the CBS Sports Network, sat down with his former coach, Mike Krzyzewski, for a one-on-one interview that will air in a 30-minute special on the network at 6:30 p.m. tonight.
"I've done interviews before with people I look up to and admire," Abdelnaby said, "but Coach K was different because those guys I didn't play for. He knows me well. It's a different dynamic when you sit across from him than Dr. J or Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. He opened up. He relaxed. We ran the gamut of emotions. He got a little emotional. I'm very, very pleased and proud of the interview."
Abdelnaby and Krzyzewski discussed the coach's entire Duke career, which began when he was hired in 1980. In one part where Krzyzewski admitted getting emotional, he told a story off the time his daughter, Debbie, was picked on as a Northern High School student the day after the Blue Devils lost a Duke-UNC game.
"We talk about his early struggles and how it affected not just him, but the people around him," Abdelnaby said. "I didn't want it to be just like any other interview. I didn't want it to be anything we had seen before. Even if it was the same subject, we looked at it from a different angle. I wanted viewers to see the Coach K I know as opposed to the Coach K you see in postgame interview or on the sidelines during a game."
The interview was taped last month in the Duke basketball offices. CBS Sports Network provided a two-minute clip here: http://cbsprt.co/12M02OV

When we were kids, our parents proudly displayed our (always heinous) school photos to track our annual transition into adulthood. But in Lindsay Lohan's case, mugshots were a little easier to come by and a little more frequent. The actress racked up her fifth fabulous custody photo in five years yesterday. They grow up so fast! So as we mourn her lost childhood, we present Lindsay's mugshots as 90s school photos. You're welcome, Dina and Mike.

What Keeps Me in Mexico? The Enchanting City of Puebla
Topics: Living
Published: Monday, May 18, 2015
By Rebecca Smith Hurd
When I arrived in Puebla in August 2007 to study Spanish, I'd planned to stay for four months. Eight years later, I'm still here, happily, with no plans to leave anytime soon. I traded-in my tourist visa for a resident permit and even started consulting for the state.
I suppose that makes me an expat, but I dislike the term, because it suggests that I've been banished or exiled from my native country, or given up my allegiance to it, surrendering my U.S. passport in some dramatic act of political defiance. I'll admit there are moments when the latter seems awfully attractive, but in reality nothing could be further from the truth. I love the United States. I love Mexico. And, in an era of globalism in which we are increasingly interdependent, I cannot imagine ever choosing one side of the border over the other. So, I call myself a foreign resident and leave it at that.
I decided to live in Puebla for many reasons, but mostly because the city is so authentically itself. There is no other place in Mexico quite like it: Its Colonial aesthetic, its urban attitude, its diverse cultural landscape, its natural beauty, and its amazing cuisine (hello, mole) are all so proudly and profoundly poblano that they set the city apart from everywhere else.
Puebla is a city of contrasts, which I find incredibly alluring. For instance:
Although Puebla is a major metropolis (Mexico's fourth-largest, with some 1.5 million residents), it doesn't feel like one. The capital city has the characteristics of a safe, suburban town: Shop owners tend to be friendly. Taxi drivers generally aren't scary. Many restaurants close early on weeknights. The city's main square, flanked by cobblestone streets and dotted with shade trees, is picturesque and filled with families on the weekends. An abundance of historic buildings, many of which were erected by Spanish settlers in the 16th and 17th centuries, give the entire urban core a surprisingly quaint feel, and quite a few have been preserved or restored to their original splendor. A stroll around downtown can take you back in time.
Although it's nearly 500 years old, Puebla offers the kinds of modern amenities that foreign residents typically seek: A mild year-round climate. Affordable housing and medical care. Private schools and major universities. Airport access. Ample shopping opportunities, including big-box retailers. Puebla ranks among the 150 richest cities in the world and, unlike most areas of Mexico, has a sizable middle class. This means I can find everything from rock-bottom prices on local services (150 pesos per week for housecleaning) to completely out-of-my-league prices on imported luxury goods (5,000 pesos for a Coach purse).
Although many locals understand English, relatively few speak it with confidence, making Puebla an ideal place to learn Spanish. Foreigners here have ample opportunity to practice newly acquired linguistic skills — and become better global citizens in the process. Even if your vocabulary, grammar, or pronunciation isn't perfect, any attempts to habla español are appreciated.
Last, but not least, there's the food. Forget heaping plates of beans, rice, cheese, and whatever else you thought you knew about Mexican cuisine. Puebla's restaurateurs serve up a impressive array of regional deliciousness, from classic staples like tinga (a chipotle-laced chicken stew) to exotic seasonal specialties like escamoles (ant eggs). The street fare is excellent, too, whether you bite into a taco árabe (shawarma-style pork on flatbread) or a real chalupa (fried corn tortilla topped with salsa, onions, and shredded meat).
I often wonder why more foreigners haven't discovered Puebla. They're totally missing out.
Rebecca Smith Hurd, founder of the travel blog AllAboutPuebla, works as a freelance writer and editor for U.S. clients, and as an adviser to the state of Puebla's international affairs office.
Comments about "What Keeps Me in Mexico? The Enchanting City of Puebla"
I am an Italian-American recently retired . I speak Spanish and Italian fluently . I am looking for a temperate and tranquil zone to retire to in Mexico.
I was think about the border areas because I have Blue Cross Retirement Medical. I am 54 years old and a widower . Where would you suggest I look for medical insurance in Puebla?

(ABC 6 News) -- A Stewartville man is in custody after more than 188 images of child pornography were found on his computer. Twenty year old Nicholas Nelson has been charged with felony possession of child pornography.
The Internet Crimes Against Children task force helped to make the arrest.
According to the criminal complaint Nelson originally told law enforcement that he didn't know what they were talking about.
With the help of the ICAC task force officials were able to track down more than 188 images of child pornography to Nelson's computer.
"It's one of the most heinous crimes out there, one we definitely take a serious stance on," said Sgt. Tom Claymon.
The Olmsted County Sheriff's Department says the ICAC or Internet Crimes Against Children task force uses technology to track child pornography images.
"If individuals are looking or trolling at child pornography and are detected by this task force, they contact the local agency," said Sgt. Claymon.
Nelson was arrested after an ICAC member connected his computer's IP address to another child pornography case.
ICAC is also able to track these images back to the victims,
"Medical effects, emotional effects, it really spans and has a long term effects on victims," said Jeanne Ronayne.
Ronayne of Olmsted County Victim Services says because they are images people sometimes forget about the victims in these crimes
"We are distanced from it because it's a picture of some child being abused," said Ronayne,
With it being nearly impossible to delete images off the internet, the images haunt the victims.
"You can't control it and so it continues to do that damage over and over again," said Ronayne.
"They may feel it's an image and that they are not victimizing but they are just continuing it," said Sgt. Claymon.
With Wednesday's arrest the Sheriff's department is hopeful there is one less person out there victimizing these children.
"Luckily we have guys like ICAC members that are skilled in computers and are able to track these people," said Sgt. Claymon.
According to the criminal complaint, using a national database of exploited children officials were able to identify 8 of the child victims in the images.

The 70-foot long vessel isn't your average boat. It's rigged with advanced sonar and noise reduction technology and high-end microscopes for testing fish samples. Director of the USGS Great Lakes Science Center Russell Strach says the boat has everything you'd find in a lab and more.
"It also has hydro-acoustic capability that's a technique where you can essentially penetrate sound into the water and get an image of the fish or schools of fish, we can actually identify to species based on those sound waves and determine general abundance and density,"
The USGS researchers aboard the vessel are on Lake Erie to monitor the fish population for evidence of invasive species and environmental changes. Strach says "The scientific data that we're gathering is mostly used to ensure that these species are around for many generations to come. It's for the sustainability. It's so that the states and the province can set harvest restrictions at the right levels, so that commercial fishing remains robust and sport fishing remains healthy."
Biologist Mark Rogers is one researcher who works on the "Muskie." A big part of his job is to collect fish, then dissect them to find out what other species the fish consumed.
Rogers says the boat's equipped with advanced hydraulic gillnetting to aid in fish collection."This is a tool that we use to drag on the bottom and sweep the fish populations to see what's there and how many there are. It's a really great sampling tool for sampling the fish community that lives on the bottom of the lake. We can do it across different habitats, we can do it across different depths, different areas of the lake and really learn what the community composition looks like."
The USGS researchers are also keeping an eye out for a primitive species of fish called Sea Lamprey. In the past the Lamprey were a cause of great concern in the Great Lakes.
While holding one up, Marc Gaden with the Fishery Commission explains that one Sea Lamprey has the ability to kill more than 40-pounds of fish in its life span. "The mouth is ringed with sharp teeth and in the middle is a file like tongue that bores a hole through the scales and skin of a fish and literally feeds on the fish's blood and body fluids, so these things are nasty. What I'm doing is if I stick it to my arm it's really like a suction cup. You can hear when I release it you have to break the seal to get it off your arm."
Gaden says the Lamprey population has been reduced by 90-percent since the 1960's, but it's still important for researchers to look for signs of them in fish samples.
Democratic Congressman Brian Higgins lent his voice in support of the work that the USGS vessel is doing. "As we develop the land we also have to be vigilant about the water itself and we've come a long way. In 1968 the Environmental Protection Agency declared the Buffalo River and some of its tributaries biologically dead. Because of millions of dollars of investment toward the remediation of the Buffalo River we're seeing that those same officials are predicting that the Buffalo River will be swimmable within five years, and the fish caught there consumable."
Higgins says even though the USGS had to absorb budget cuts triggered by the sequester, projects like this will continue to monitor the health of the Great Lakes. "We're fighting, and were working with both Democrats and Republicans toward resorting Great Lakes funding to ensure that the biological integrity of the Great Lakes, Lake Erie, and the Buffalo River, and Niagara Rivers are sustained,"
After a few days on Buffalo's canalside, the "Muskie is now making its way to Port Dover, Ontario to continue its study of Lake Erie.

What happened to ABC? Where did everybody go? When I left off several years ago, this place was THE place for natural bodybuilding discussion and information. Today, although there is still a wealth of information left over from "The Day," there's hardly any traffic here. What gives?:confused:
Maybe I wasn't around far enough back but I never thought this place was big. It has always been a small group of people to me, though a high percentage of smart people. Looking at the statistics now, we have about 15.5k members compared to bodybuilding.com's 6 million.
Although, it did go from "small" to "smaller."
When I first started posting, there were probably about 25 to 30 active members. Now we are lucky if there is 5 to 10 active members.
I've been fairly lucky. Since joining and posting, I have't seen much troll activity.
I have to agree that in the early 2000's this place was much more active. Back then there were many new threads each day in all the sub forums and many posts on each topic.
Our stats back in the day were incredible. If I remember correctly we had 75,000+ registered users with several thousand active members. There was a short while where we were hitting 1 million hits/month. I think that was around '04-'05, before the FB explosion. I still think forums are the best way to share ideas, though.
I feel one of the big things is the brothers stopped posting. They went away many years ago, the journals stopped. I was editing their journals for them and they just kinda faded away.
I believe jacob works for bb.com now?

Great thoughts. I'd forgotten about the Peace Prize. Shows how much it really meant.
He's beem called courageous, resolute and unflinching. Attributed to him are words like bold and decisive. I'm not talking about McChrystal, I'm talking about Obama. This general excercises some run-of-the-mill griping in a tabloid rag and all of a suden he has to be sacked? Grow a pair and some thicker skin Mr. President. Petraeus is going to do exactly what McChrystal wanted done. Increase troops and kick some tail by lifting these silly ROE orders. No more melting into the general population for the bad guys. I'm only disappointed that McChrystal apologized rather than standing by his statements, he was going to be fired anyway. We just lost, arguably, the finest mind in assymetrical warfare. How about petulant, childish and venal to go along with those other headlines for Mr. Obama?
While I understand the author's frustration, it is unfounded. There has never been an incident of this magnitude in America's history of 60+ years of offshore drilling. Gentlemen who have created technologies to clean up oil spills were thwarted by government regulators at every turn. Kevin costner has spoken eloquently on that topic. You can't bring to the market what the Federal qovernment won't let you bring to the market. Now that we have an epic oil spill, the Feds have found their way clear to relaxing ridiculous environmental constraints. What's that old saying about necessity and its Mother? Now we will get real technology to clean up these sorts of things. Better late than never.
Thak you for bringing this story to the Plain Dealer. I love people who have passion and joy in their lives. It is such an inspiration. You have to admire her. Cutting your own swath when you have no real need to is truly a rarity in today's world. Good for her!
As an American taxpayer I am overjoyed that HUD has decided to do the responsible thing. By trying to get the most money possible out of these homes, the American public getsw the representation it deserves from a fairly useless government. Kucinich puts altruism above the Constitution of the United States. Government is to promote the general welfare, not PROVIDE SPECIFIC welfare. We need to recoup all of the money we can from this HUD/FHA/Fannie/Freddie debacle that happened in the real estate market. Now is not the time for $100 houses from the government. My only wish is that someone in the government would step up and acknowledge they are broke and we have to be responsible with taxpayer dollars from now on. One can dream;)

I've been here many times and each time the food has been excellent however they just have to do something about the noise level. On several occasions there have been some loud noisy tables that made it unbearable for everyone around them - management does nothing to try and quiet them down. Even without the big, loud tables it's difficult not to have to scream to your dining partner. That said, the food is rather good and reasonable for the quality of fish that's served. The bar is a nice place to meet people or have a light supper as well. They also own "Aja" across the street where you can get excellent sushi as well. We'll go back, but will try to avoid Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings.
Posted by Sushi Lover on 12/01/2006
Not only is the sushi quality excellent here but so is the other food on the menu. Usually when I eat at Japanese restaurants I don't eat the other food, but here it is so amazing you can't pass it up. Try the Pad Thai noodles- awesome dish. The place has a very cool atmosphere, definitley a great date spot.
Posted by Anonymous on 10/20/2006
The sushi is great and at a great price. I come here at least once a week. I take all of my friends to this restaurant and they all always agree that this is the best sushi in the city.
Posted by Tatiana on 09/05/2006
I have a friend that always recommended me this restaurant, and I dont know why Id never stopped by until last week... what a delight! Sushi is excelent! original and great taste... price is not bad either. I was so hyped up on the restaurant that I went twice again this week so far... I want to try everything in the menu.... Highly recommended.
Posted by Foodtalker on 09/01/2006
I ate here last night, and perhaps my review will be tainted by the amazing breeze that was wafting through the place (it's an open space) after the long stifling hot summer we just had. But I really enjoyed Fusha. They have this lovely room-divider of tall branches...creates a really cool atmosphere.. The service was good, very attentive waiter. We shared the rock shrimp tempura and the duck springroll, both of them must-haves. We also had a duck chow fun (average) and a very good chilean sea bass dish with vegetables. Yes, they have brown rice! And they have Lichido martinis (expensive at $12 per cocktail but well worth it). Altogether, a very tasty and exotic Manhattan get-away.
Posted by dp on 07/14/2006
I think this is the best sushi I've had anywhere! I live in Tribeca and make it a point to go to Fusha for sushi as much as I possibly can. Fresh, innovative, consistent and worth the trip! My girlfriend and I always get the Wasabi roll b/c you cannot find it on any other menu anywhere. We just branched out and tried the Christmas roll and we were so happy. I hope everyone realizes how amazing it is and they open one downtown!
Posted by Anonymous on 07/03/2006
I live on the same block as Fusha and finally decided to give it a try last week. Incredibly disappointing. It is overpriced and the sushi is not fresh. I ordered the shrimp dumplings, chirashi, and some sort of yellowtail special. The shrimp dumplings were all dough...didn't even taste the shrimp. The chirashi didn't include that much fish and the rice was bland. It wasn't really seasoned but they somehow made it taste bad. The yellowtail with the yellowtail special was sorta rough and too chewy. The place looks cool but, honestly, that is all they have going for it.

Frequently Asked Questions
ESEA Flexibility Waiver
What are Title I schools?
Title I, originally enacted in 1965 as part of the War on Poverty to help the most disadvantaged students, is the largest federal investment in elementary and secondary education. Forty Lee County schools (including three charters) are identified as Title I schools. These schools have the highest concentrations of poverty (based on the number of free/reduced lunch students enrolled at the school). Title I funds are used to improve the teaching and learning in these schools and to help students meet challenging state academic standards..
Which schools in Lee County are Title I?
The Title I program in Lee County uses the schoolwide model. There are 42 Title I Schoolwides: ALC (Alternative Learning Center) Central, ALC West, Bonita Springs Elementary, Bonita Middle, Colonial Elementary, Dunbar High, East Lee County High, Edgewood Elementary, Franklin Park Elementary, Ft. Myers Middle Academy, G. Weaver Hipps Elementary, Harns Marsh Elementary, Harns Marsh Middle, Hector A. Cafferata, Jr. Elementary, Island Coast High, J. Colin English Elementary, James Stephens International Academy, LAMP, Lehigh Acres Middle, Lehigh Elementary, Lehigh Senior High, Manatee Elementary, Mariner Middle, Mirror Lakes Elementary, N. Ft. Myers Academy for the Arts, Oak Hammock Middle, Orange River Elementary, Orangewood Elementary, Patriot Elementary, Ray V. Pottorf Elementary, Robinson-Littleton Academy, San Carlos Park Elementary, Spring Creek Elementary, Sunshine Elementary, Tice Elementary, Tortuga Preserve Elementary, Treeline Elementary, Tropic Isles Elementary, Varsity Lakes Middle, Veterans Park Academy for the Arts K-8, and Villas Elementary.Please click here to visit the school websites.
What is Florida's ESEA Flexibility Waiver?
In 2002 the No Child Left Behind Act was signed into law, renewing the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) that provides funding for K-12 education. No Child Left Behind established national educational standards. Having to comply with two separate school accountability systems with different standards and timelines has resulted in duplication and confusion. Florida has been granted an ESEA flexibility waiver so we can have a single accountability system tailored to our state. Transitioning from two systems to one poses short term challenges and deadlines, but should mean a more efficient system over the long term and, most importantly, higher-quality education for all of our students. Florida's School Grades system has consistently succeeded in identifying the most struggling schools and students in need of additional support and rewarding the outstanding performance of high-achieving students and schools.
Florida requested a flexibility waiver in order to:
What is DA (Differentiated Accountability)?
Florida's Flexibility Waiver allows its own school grading system to identify struggling schools that need intervention and support to improve as well as set ambitious but achieveable Annual Measurable Objectives (AMOs). There are four AMOs that will be used to review the performance of all schools:
As a result, Florida has four DA classifications:

How can parents be involved?
Parents are very important in their child's education, we invite and encourage parents to become involved in their child's school. There are many ways to be involved such as joining the School Advisory Council, participating in the School Improvement Plan process, reviewing the school's Parent Involvement Policy and Home-School Compact, planning parent involvement activities and workshops, becoming a member of the school's parent/teacher organization, or volunteering at school.
