Full-time: James O'Connor and Nathan Tyson on target as Derby County beat Barnsley 2-0
Posted: November 07, 2012|
DERBY County made it back-to-back home wins with a 2-0 victory over Barnsley at Pride Park Stadium.
James O'Connor's first goal for the club put the Rams ahead after 68 minutes and substitute Nathan Tyson sealed the three points with a late strike.
Rams boss Nigel Clough named an unchanged starting line-up following Saturday's 4-1 victory over Blackpool.
Jake Buxton returned to the squad after serving a one-match ban but had to settle for a place on the bench, so O'Connor kept his place at the heart of the defence.
Former Derby forward Tomasz Cywka started for Barnsley, whose manager Keith Hill made four changes to the side that lost 1-0 at Hull City.
The Rams created some early pressure, with Conor Sammon sending an improvised flick over the bar from Gareth Roberts' cross.
John Brayford's throw then released Paul Coutts down the right but his low centre arrived too quickly for Theo Robinson in the middle and the striker failed to make meaningful contact with the ball.
The visitors went close in the 14th minute when centre-back Scott Wiseman nicked possession off Robinson, then beat Coutts and Richard Keogh before delivering a low cross which Chris Dagnall turned wide at the near post.
Eight minutes later, Stephen Dawson's cut-back from the right reached Jacob Mellis but the Barnsley midfielder could not keep his shot down.
Moments later, space opened up through the middle for Jeff Hendrick but his firmly-struck drive was straight at keeper Luke Steele.
Keogh fired wide from the edge of the area, while Sammon could not connect with Brayford's ball in from the right.
Adam Legzdins had to tip over a rising effort from Cywka, who then shot wide after latching on to a punch from the Rams keeper.
Mellis cleared the bar again from a decent position following a swift break from Kelvin Etuhu.
A nice build-up from Derby in the 42nd minute ended with a sweet hit from Will Hughes 20 yards out, which was beaten away by Steele.
Cywka had the first chance of the second half, his angled drive deflected into the side-netting.
Derby were pressing hard but were becoming frustrated in the final third.
Barnsley threatened on the break and, after another surging run from Wiseman, Dagnall's fierce strike was beaten away by Legzdins.
Coutts' free kick from just outside the area was seen late by Steele but the keeper managed to palm the ball away from danger.
The Rams took the lead from a set piece in the 68th minute.
Hughes delivered a teasing free kick from the left and Keogh's header clipped the inside of the far post.
The ball broke loose and O'Connor was on hand to force it in from virtually on the line.
While the visitors pushed for an equaliser, Derby might have added to their lead.
Tyson, with his first touch after replacing Sammon, saw a shot deflected on to the roof of the net.
The resulting corner, taken by another substitute, Michael Jacobs, flashed across goal, just evading the run of Keogh.
Derby had a let-off in the 89th minute when Tom Kennedy's corner found Stephen Dawson unmarked at the far post but he volleyed over.
The hosts made sure of the win soon after when Craig Bryson found Tyson, whose 20-yard screamer flew past Steele.
DERBY COUNTY: Legzdins, Brayford, Keogh, O'Connor, Roberts, Coutts (Freeman, 90+2), Hendrick, Bryson, Hughes, Robinson (Jacobs, 76), Sammon (Tyson, 84). Other subs: Deeney (gk), M O'Brien, Buxton, Davies.
BARNSLEY: Steele, Kennedy, Wiseman, McNulty, Golbourne, Cranie, Etuhu (J O'Brien, 79), Dawson, Mellis (Harewood, 79), Cywka (Done, 72), Dagnall. Other subs: Alnwick (gk), Hassell, Foster, Silva.
REFEREE: D Coote (Nottingham).

I'm kind, funny, compassionate, a bit sarcastic, and intelligent. I enjoy going out for a great meal or a few drinks, but I can also be just as happy staying in for a night of movies and lounging on the couch. I'm actually not a huge fan of crazy bars/clubs anymore, I feel like I'm pretty much past that phase, but that doesn't mean I can't still have a good time if we were getting a few drinks or going dancing! I love spending time with my friends family, reading a good book by the pool, going to movies, taking walks/hikes, and though I don't often get the chance, I love tubing (both on the water and snow!) and kayaking at my Grandparent's lake house in the summer.
I'm looking for somebody who will want to share all these experiences more with me, and also maybe push me out of my comfort zone a little bit. Specifically, I'd love to try more water sports this summer, I always have fun on the boat at my grandparents house, and I'd love to go on weekend adventures together.

There is some talk on this board about "vatting" or mixing together various bourbons. It seems most of the time it is to make a bad bourbon tolerable.
So... where have you all found the greatest success. What vat mixture is worth giving a shot.
Here is my experience.
I tried AA10yo and EW Black Label. I was not impressed with either (yeah, I know, not liking AAA10yo is blasphemy on this board). After trying them both on ice to no avail, I gave in and mixed them together.
The result?? Excellent. A true case of synergy. They balanced each other and actually produced a very pleasant bourbon. I found flavors when mixed that neither displayed individually (pepper?) I can say this... I would rather have the two together than have either by themselves.
So what has worked for you?

Perfect gift cake. This one is a 6″ chocolate cake presented wrapped in cellophane with a matching bow.

4th July Cake
This handsome cake was ordered by an American Family living locally to celebrate a family promotion and hopefully have enough left over to celebrate Independance Day the next day. It was a large cake to feed 50 to 60 people. This seemingly simple and straightforward cake was challenging purely because of it need to be […]

Meet the Heroes--and One Heroine--Behind FAMFest 08

A total of 21 people from Sun's access management community attended, including Pat himself (second from left in the front row), to create demos for the forthcoming Sun Java System Federation Access Manager. Sounds like a most successful event with a lot accomplished.Who's the only lady in the picture? I asked Pat. "That's Cheryl Kaczmarek, a program coordinator. She was responsible for all the logistics for FAMFest and did a great job!" he replied.

In case you haven't seen it, Lee also sent along a photo of the smiling water tower.
Fruitport Township Supervisor Brian Werschem said the cost for painting letters, emblems, etc., on a water tower is done on a square-footage basis.
"The cost difference between putting the lettering 'Fruitport Township' vs. Mr. Smiley was very incidental," Werschem explained. "It has been a landmark staple of this community for decades and it cost us very little more in the scheme of the $125,000 repainting project. It was not bid separately and was not itemized, but we are sure the cost difference was minimal."

Prevention is the best way to avoid problems with the feet. Proper foot care is a daily responsibility and best method of prevention. This includes regularly washing and inspecting feet. The diabetic should carefully inspect the feet for small cuts, breaks in the skin, blisters, corns or calluses.
skin care products
Is A Unique Topical Ideal For Diabetic Skin Care?
For many patients with diabetes, skin care of the foot can be a primary concern. Neglecting skin conditions as simple as dry or cracked skin can lead to minor wounds or even ulceration. For practitioners, the simplest of preventative measures may be the key to combating diabetic skin conditions. In his experience, Thomas Barlis, DPM has found topical creams to be the best skin care treatment and preventative option for people with diabetes. Among the most unique of these preventative measures is DiabetiDerm Foot Rejuvenating Cream, according to Dr. Barlis. "Diabetics are compliant with DiabetiDerm," emphasizes Dr. Barlis, who is in private practice in Astoria, N.Y. He says he has been using DiabetiDerm in his practice for three to four years and adds that nearly half of the patients in his practice have diabetes.
Why L-Arginine HCL Is A Key Ingredient
Daily application of DiabetiDerm Foot Rejuvenating Cream rejuvenates and rehydrates the skin and stimulates the feet, according to Health Care Products, the manufacturer of the cream. The company notes that DiabetiDerm is one of the only foot creams to include the ingredient L-Arginine HCL. A recent pilot study, published in Diabetes Care, found that L-Arginine increases blood flow and temperature in the feet. The study cites that patients with diabetes have irregularly low levels of L-Arginine, which results in impeded circulation of blood flow. The study showed that the 12 patients who completed the study achieved improved blood flow at the metatarsal and Achilles area over two weeks. Dr. Barlis has seen this effect in his compliant patients during their one month follow-up visit. Chris Dagrossa, DPM, who is in private practice in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., has not observed these clinical effects for the year he has been using DiabetiDerm. "I have not seen clinically increased perfusion but I do not use DiabetiDerm for this purpose," says Dr. Dagrossa, who estimates that 30 percent of his patients have diabetes. "I use it to reverse dry skin, cracks and fissures and preventatively for wounds."
Other Key Points To Consider
DiabetiDerm Foot Rejuvenating Cream also contains tea tree oil, a natural antiseptic, and other natural botanicals. According to the manufacturer, these ingredients enhance the cream's ability to moisturize severely cracked skin as well as soften calluses for long periods of time. Given that DiabetiDerm has been designed specifically to aid patients with diabetes, Dr. Barlis says the product achieves better patient compliance in comparison to other topical creams. Both Drs. Barlis and Dagrossa are in agreement that DiabetiDerm is an effective option as a preventative measure. Dr. Barlis insists that when it comes to preventative care, a proactive approach using DiabetiDerm yields positive results. Dr. Dagrossa concurs. "I try to educate my patients to take care of their skin to prevent irritations, cracking and wounds," notes Dr. Dagrossa. "I have seen no drawbacks and think DiabetiDerm is an excellent product."

Liverpool A group of business owners in the village of Liverpool is raising money to construct a clock in the village.
The group hopes to raise $35,000 to purchase and install a vintage-style standalone clock for Washington Park at the intersection of Route 57 and First Street. The clock will light up at night and is meant to stand as a symbol to "let our friends and neighbors see how proud we are of our lakeside home," according to a release from the fundraising campaign, which formed about six weeks ago.
"We have been concentrating on getting signs and flyers printed up," said Bridgette Plessas, campaign coordinator. "We're planning a community-wide campaign kickoff event in mid-September."
The date for that event has not yet been finalized, but it likely will be set some time this week. So far, through signs around the village and other efforts, the campaign has raised about $3,000 for the clock, which already has significant support among village residents.
"We have had great community support for the early advertising of this campaign," Plessas said. "Many longtime Liverpool residents think it is a great idea and will help show that the village of Liverpool is an inviting and community-oriented place."
In addition to the signs along Onondaga Lake Parkway and at Washington Park, the fundraising effort has been publicized by its sponsors. Campaign chairman is Jack Fisher of the Fisher Companies. Other members of the committee are Bill Bell of The Bell Group; John Gormel of The Retreat; Mike Charles of Charles Heating & Air Conditioning; Joe Falcone of Syracuse Plastics, LLC; John Maurer of Maurer Funeral Home; Tom Kruger of Key Bank; Angela Stivers of M& T Bank; and Mike Hennigan of Nichols Grocery. Plessas said Nichols will soon begin distributing fliers in all of their grocery bags.

What could be done to better care for the homeless in cold weather?
7 Responses
We need to open up more shelters and services that help the homeless. Or give more money to the programs that do. Give the homeless the help that they need to help establish themselves. You can't get a job without a residence, you can't get id without a residence, you can't work if you are sick, injured,or suffering from post traumatic stress syndrome. They need medical, social and finacial assistance. Its a crime that we could spend billions on a war and people in our own country are suffering.
We could deport them to Florida.
What about some of the older motels or older schools being converted to long term housing- nothing fancy, bunk bed dorms with donated bedding,washing services, food? We can not ignore the problem, which with the economy questionable so many are a check away from losin everything. If there is mental illness involved, treat it.
OR we could rent a bus and drive some to some legislators home for a hot meal!!!
Note to US GOVERNMENT LEADERS!
Americans are freezing to death in the UNITED STATES (you remember the US don't you). How about you send some money from the lets help the IRAQ'S pot to the LET'S HELP AMERICANS FIRST NOT FREEZE TO DEATH pot! Do you think this will get anywhere? Neither do I, but I thought I would try. After all look at the Katrina situtation. Our government leaders have forgot about the people funding there poor decisions, while they live in the lap of luxuary. Maybe we should refuse to pay our taxes until they start helping Americans first instead of the Iraq's. Or let the IRAQ's pay our taxes and we'll take that money to help Americans first and Iraq's last. I think we should open up the White House to homeless people. There's lots of room there, it's warm, there's food, security, water and toilet facilities. Sounds like it's got everything a shelter needs and the guy working there can entertain when he's not busy which seems like most of the time as evidence of the condition of this country.
Don't send them down here to Florida. We have plenty of our own. Last few days it has been in the twenties, and thirties, so they always have a place to go, if they want. I have heard many stories about, and from some homeless. You would be surprised of the backgrounds of some of them, and why some have chosen that way of life. Some of them would shock you. They did me anyway.
Yes, it is right that some of these people "choose" to be homeless. Do you believe that these people "choosing" to be homeless are mentally stable? Could they possibly need to be placed into a mental care facility, and recieve food, shelter, heat, counseling and medication? Or would this not be covered by state or federal funding? I see sooooo much federal money being squandered away on ridiculous things, and other countries. How about all of our congressmen and legislators making crazy amounts of money, and wanting MORE, MORE, MORE??? I guess they don't think about the poor and the homeless when they pass (or don't pass) their bills. I live in northern New York, where temps in the past few days have been well below zero. I can't take being outside for a few minutes, let alone living out there! It's sad! Really sad!
I think you are a very weak and close-minded person,based on your comments.I have been considering living a homeless existence for quite a few years,because society is so screwed up and driven by greed.I am not mentally unstable because of these thoughts,quite the opposite,in fact.Out of all the people I know,I am probably the most sane,everyone else I know are always stressing out over money,relationships,and so on.It's our modern society that is mentally unstable.I feel sorry for you that you can't stand being outside for more than a few minutes.Your life must be plagued by fear,like everyone else.I feel sorry for you and everyone like you.Pathetic!

Chris Copeland | November 23, 2011 | Comments
Retailers must evolve online and cultivate a culture of social shopping that goes beyond in-store deals.
I love Black Friday.
There, I said it. And I know I'm not alone. By nature, as an anti-social individual who will spear you with a cart while listening to "Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer" on my iPod as I shop, I am clearly in the minority. In fact, short of bridal parties in Vegas, there is likely no bigger celebration of sisterhood than Black Friday. Every year the teams of women wearing matching Black Friday t-shirts and saving spots in line for each other while doing their deal hunting grows; missioning the likes of which tribes have taught their young for centuries.
Black Friday Is the Original Social Shopping Experience
Retailers keep store hours based on consumer demand. Black Friday shoppers use basic survival instincts of herd mentality to secure the best deals, while fostering a sense of togetherness and community for the last decade plus. And now, Cyber Monday and mobile technologies further change the patterns of these shoppers.
This year, Black Friday comes early. Many more retailers including Macy's and Old Navy have moved their store openings to midnight. Walmart will join the group of retailers that can't wait and will open on Thursday. The shift to turn Thanksgiving into a commercial holiday (a redundant statement if ever one could be made in this country) has been met with ample backlash. Nearly 200,000 individuals have signed an online protest to pressure retailers into keeping the gluttony at the dinner table and not the checkout lane. And while it is certainly the right of the public to protest, and even boycott, it is probably done without an awareness of what Black Friday is for most people.
This move to more hours is reactive to consumer demand, yet is also preemptive to the challenges of control lost by in-store retail. Retailers are fighting a sluggish economy, new forms of distribution via the Internet, which makes it easier to get products from previously unknown sources, and the realities that in-store retail is growing annually at less than half the rate of online.
Unfortunately, for most retailers, the shift in store hours is not enough. Today's digital-savvy shopper is aware that discounts can be had online, and rarely is the in-store deal alone enough. As a single shopper, I expect better mobile and social experiences. I see Black Friday as the single biggest day in the history of Foursquare. The viability and value to the masses will be set this Friday. For retailers, the ability to connect with individuals in the store with fresh, relevant deals is a differentiator worth watching.
Retailers must also cultivate a culture of social shopping that goes beyond a group with circulars in hand. Group-buying signals, such as in-store community trending of "What's Hot" and flash discounts available via mobile devices will further transform and condition the buyers.
It's unlikely that any petition of boycott will have enough impact to stem the tide of Black Friday's move to Thursday. What may ultimately return Black Friday to Friday is the way retailers evolve online and bring social shopping 2.0 to bear. If retailers continue to rely on print circulars and downloadable store maps, they fail to recognize the ongoing evolution of the customer. Annually, groups of women in matching hot pink "I survived Black Friday" t-shirts go out to celebrate and shop. Retailers need to cater to this group and use the tools of today to move this old-school social shopping experience forward to social shopping 2.0.
Chris Copeland is chief executive officer of GroupM Next, the forward-looking media innovation unit of GroupM. Chris is responsible for curating and communicating insight-focused media solutions across established and emerging platforms. Leveraging his multi-year experience with emerging media companies, Chris is tasked with stewarding GroupM Next in partnership with agency leadership from GroupM's four media marketing and marketing service agencies (Maxus, MEC, MediaCom, and Mindshare). The focus is participating with those companies leading changes that most impact consumer media consumption, brand favorability, and purchase behavior.
Guiding the Predictive Insights, Technology, Research, and Communications teams at GroupM Next, Chris is responsible for overseeing the amplification of insights into opportunities that directly benefit the business of GroupM agencies and their clients. GroupM is the world's largest media investment management group and the media holding arm of WPP. Together, GroupM agencies represent almost $30 billion in overall North American billings (RECMA).
Chris helped guide the development of GroupM Next, which was established to deliver the best thinking and new insights from within the GroupM community. The unit also focuses on technology innovation connecting all media channels, but especially, online, social, mobile, and addressable.
Chris was selected to lead GroupM Next after nine years of leading the search marketing practice within GroupM. Among his accomplishments are the development and integration of the global search marketing offering for GroupM agencies, GroupM Search, which managed $1.3 billion in search billings globally and grew to more than 1,000 search marketing strategists serving 40 countries. In 2009, Chris created the research division of GroupM Search and developed research studies that deepened the understanding of consumer behavior across search and social media for leading brands and garnered global traction - most notably: The Influenced: Social Media, Search, and the Interplay of Consideration and Consumption; The Virtuous Circle: The Role of Social Media in the Purchase Pathway;and From Intent to In-Store: Search's Role in the New Retail Shopper Profile.
Chris entered the digital industry in 1996 when he joined search marketing agency WGI (later acquired by Tempus Group). He has been with the WPP and GroupM family of companies since 2000 when, recognizing search as an emerging media channel with incredible potential for brands, WPP acquired Tempus Group and CIA, and ultimately rebranded the search marketing agency as Outrider. As senior partner and managing director of Outrider, Chris delivered on GroupM's vision for the channel, leading the organization to 500 percent growth with global presence over five years, and establishing award-winning search marketing strategies that have become industry-wide best practices. In 2002, Chris successfully implemented the integration of search into the cross-channel media planning process at MEC, creating the first search marketing practice to sit within a media communications and planning company. In 2007, he guided the business expansion of search marketing practices into all GroupM agencies. In 2009, Chris was named CEO of GroupM Search, where he was responsible for driving global search strategy for the organization, while fostering the innovative application of search as an integrated channel. In his role, Chris also provided digital strategy counsel for clients, including AT&T, Dell, Audi, Volkswagen, and more.
Chris is an active member on advisory boards at the 4A's, Google, Yahoo, MSN, and I-COM. He is a frequent speaker in global forums discussing the digital marketplace and how the space is evolving, and serves as a regular resource to national and industry press.

Replay the fantasy football chat
11 Responses
I have Aaron Rodgers on a bye this week, so who do I start: Garrard vs. Houston, or Freeman vs. Carolina?
I have a flex spot and a reciever spot in a PPR. Who should get the nod between these options? Blount, Welker, Harvin, Mike Williams(TB), or Steve Johnson? You would think Welker would be a no-brainer but he has been trash for about at least a month now. Thanks LZ.
hate I missed the chat. I'm in first place in my league and trying to hang on. PPR League. Need help deciding:
1 QB out of Fitz, Sanchez, Palmer
2 RBs out of Hillis, Turner, Mendenhall
Appreciate the help.
Palmer, Hillis and Mendenhall
Eli vs Dal
Garrard vs Hou
Should I give J Best and R Rice for Frank Gore? I aready have A Foster as well
Yes, but get something else back as well.
Start three: Brandon Marshall, Randy Moss, Steve Johnson, Brandon Lloyd, Braylon Edwards?
Jacob Tamme or Dustin Keller?
Lloyd, Johnson and Moss along with Tamme
Lance, pick two of these guys for this week. J. Knox, Nate Burleson, Wes Welker.
Also, would you trade Boldin and S.Jax for Andre Johnson and Danny Woodhead??
Burleson and Welker. No.
Farve or Big Ben.
I need to replace Rogers this week.
Lance, I need advice.Std scoring league, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 Flex.My WR's are horrible (so much so that I took a flier and picked up Sidney Rice and Vincent Jackson this week) I have been winning games because of Arian Foster, MJD, Ahmad Bradshaw, and several lucky breaksDue to injuries I am left with Flacco and Palmer as my QB's.Should I offer AF or AB for a QB upgrade or can Flacco and/or Palmer see me through the playoffs (Week 14 & 15).If I give up a RB, Ryan Matthews will take his place.Thank you
start two: Foster(duh…), Bradshaw, McCoy or Hillis.
They are all great… which makes it tough.
Steve Smith (CAR) and J. Stewart have become available on waiver wire. Should I drop Tutu (SD) or Roy Williams for one or both of those players. My roster is pretty solid and I don't have anyone that is an easy drop. Are Smith and Sterwart worth anything come playoff time?

Just wanted to get people's thoughts on wearing a parka in a sleeping bag. Do you think there is enough room to wear a DAS parka inside an Integral Designs North Twin (I'm 5'9" 170#). If not, is it worth sizing up to a wide bag? It would be an extra 10oz for the wide in the same length.Thanks,Bob
I dont have experience with either the bag or jacket, but if you are going to get a new bag for use with a parka, get a nunatak bag, you are able to adjust the girth to fit your clothng system. Wider with a jacket, and tighten it up if you are wearing just a base layer. the Arc concept is also great because it will take you to its temp rating all the way up to 60 degrees because you can undoo all the straps and just use as a quilt, but when you are pushing the limits you can tighten them up to an almost closed bag.
the quilt approach is a fine approach for the reasons stated. however, if you're not sure you want to go the quilt route, give the Montbell SuperStretch bags (avail. in ~7 temp ratings in both down & synth, covering -40 deg F up to 50deg F). the extra 10+ inches of girth (~71" at the shoulders) cp. to most mummy bags, provided by the SuperStretch system allow for the type of layering you're considering without restricting movement.
I have a mont bell bag as well, I have not used it with insulating clothing but the elastic in the baffles may still constrict a down jacket?It will probably not be a problem though, it is a huge bag before stretching the bafflesI recomend both Nunatak and Mont bell
I alread have a Nunatak quilt and I love it for 3 season use but I'm not sold on the idea for winter use. What does anyone out there think of the Montbell stretch system. Would it be able to stretch without compressing the loft my the jacket inside the bag?
Edited by kdesign on 01/17/2006 19:45:45 MST.
I've wondered about that---one of the reasons I've never seriously considered their bags. Another being the relatively low fill power of their down compared to other premium bags and quilts.By the by, Bob--I've now recently used my Nunatak Arc Ghost/Alpinist hybrid down to 15 degrees. In a tent -- MLD bivy, quilt, Micropuff P/O , Lt. capilene baselayer, sleeping on Torso-lite, GG Nightlight pad. Warm and toasty.
I think that with a high loft down jacket the mont bell stretch baffles would be a problem, the bags were designed for comfort, probably for the traditional lightweight backpackers that wear just a baselayer to bed in a warmer bag, not us super ultralighters who bring a lighter "less warm" bag with insulating clothing. I wish mont bell would use 900 fill power down, they are some of the lighest bags out there but could be much lighter
Kevin, This weekend I used: tent, Arc X, DAS parka, base layer, cloudveil inertia pants, Torsolite, and 3/8" thinlight. First night it was 15 degrees and there were 2 people in the tent. I was warm most of the night but cold by morning. Next night it was about 25 but it was only me in the tent and I was cold most of the night. It was the first time I used the Arc X outside of a bivy and I found it drafty. Never found it drafty in the past using a bivy. Maybe the pads were inadequate? Thoughts?Thanks,Bob
Could have been the lack of calories?could have been because you were alone?Could have been your insulation lost some loft?could have been any number of things reallyalso you can always use a bivy inside a tent, as long as it is breathable
I guess that it would depend on the size of the individual. The interior "unstretched" girth ~53" and is only 5"-11" less than other bags. For example, the FeatheredFriends Light Flight series comes in "3-cuts" with should girths of 58", 60", or 64".
Kevin,Read something maybe a year ago. Can't locate it on the web now, and not even sure whether to believe that it's true. I do, however, have a fairly clear recollection of the salient points of that web page.The web page was from a sleeping bag manufacturer and stated that fill power measurements can actually be done via different methods, and what the USA calls 850 is called either 725 or 750 (i forget which the article stated) in Europe and the rest of the world.It also stated that in the typical American marketing strategy that what is now being called 800+, 850, or even 900 is the exact same stuff that, in the USA, used to be called 750 some years ago. It's merely a difference in measuring, not the down. Given a company's penchant for $$$, it's not hard for me to imagine that manufacturers wouldn't want this to be known (if it's true). Again, i'm NOT sure whether to believe this. However, if it is true, then the Montbell bags (assuming this Japanese company is not using the same measurement standard employed in the USA) might be comparable. Does anyone else have any input on this? Would really appreciate knowing if this is true, or just another let's slam anything associated with the USA (not that some of the criticism isn't justified).
Your pad arrangement might have been a little skimpy. You could try the thicker Nightlight. Was the quilt wrapped around the pads, on top of the pads?I did have the extra layer afforded by the bivy, which also helps to perserve loft from tent condensation. There is not a whole lot of down in these quilts and you can quickly lose loft if your bag is subjected to moisture. Any longer or colder a trip than I was on (2 nights), I would have also added my VBL--not only for some added warmth, but to preserve bag loft from body generated moisture.There simply could be the degree of personal cold acclimitization.As Ryan points out, there are a lot of possible factors.
PJ, I do remember the discussion. There's a lot of smoke and mirrors in this area. I am only concerned by real world loft/ weight ratios. I can measure a bags loft and I can weigh it. Something tangible as opposed to Industry claims.I have found comparable bags from Western Mtneering, the Marmot 900 series and Valandre which would indicate at least a similar quality filling, no matter by what standard the fill power is measured by.This is by personal observation, not Manufacturers specs.
KD,I understand you. Quantification sure beats marketing hype. My favorite bags are from WM. Their lightest series/bags are cut a tad tight. I don't mind, but some others might.I've emailed Montbell this past fall. Wanted a colder bag. Narrowed my choices down to two: WM Versalite Super, or a Montbell SuperStretchDownHugger (#1 or #2). Same day, heard back from Nels. He praised the WM bag i mentioned, and spoke highly of Montbell's. Sadly, only one question was not answered as i hoped it would be. I was hoping for a "number". Instead I got "words". Montbell doesn't list a LOFT value for any of their bags, nor could Nels provide any. I find that Montbell makes fine bags, easy to zip/unzip and mine has yet to foul. Unlike my WM, TNF, and WMtn bags - must keep zipper as straight as possible or 1) it's a real "bear" to zip, or 2) it may catch some fabric and snag. Obviously, this happens only when 1) it's really cold out and you want to zipper up as fast as possible so as not to chill, and 2) when you really gots'ta-go and you can't get out. Maybe i should be gettin' me a quilt? It's tough for me to cp. warmth between similar bags that i own as conditions are different each time out. The other thing i noticed, even assuming the Montbell 725fp down to be rougly equivalent in loft to the WM 850fp down is that (i can use a WM short bag) the down fill in the WM is divided up along 66", but the the Montbell's down is divided up along 70". Obviously, the difference goes the other way if someone can use a 70" bag from Montbell, but another Mfr's regular length is 72". In that case Montbell's down insulates a shorter length. Just some factors to complicate the matter further. However, having said that, perhaps these factors shouldn't even be considered, and please correct me if you feel i'm mistaken, LOFT is really the deciding factor in warmth, now, isn't it.Another thing to keep in mind when cp. weight related ratios, is that the Montbell SuperStretch system adds 2oz to a bag's weight versus their non-SuperStretch bags. Fill wt. is the same between them however. So, unless i'm mistaken, when wt. related ratios involving Montbell bags are considered for warmth purposes, the non-SuperStretch bag wts. should be used, or ~2oz of wt substracted from the SuperStretch bags. Obviously, if considering "pack" wt, then the 2oz shouldn't be deducted.
"I wish mont bell would use 900 fill power down, they are some of the lighest bags out there but could be much lighter"This is not nearly the big deal it's made out to be in my opinion. Looking at real numbers, the difference between 850-900 down and the "cheap" 750 down is usually less than 2 ounces for equal loft in a bag with 12 or so ounces of fill. Considering the huge price premium for 900 down, this is probably the worst cost/benefit place in an entire gear list to shave 2 ounces. Taking a leak before donning your pack will save more weight. I know many folks want the absolute best money can buy, but I'll keep the $100 difference in price and put it into other gear that will yield more weight savings or offer better performance. My 2 cents.
PaulThis gives details of the European formula. Now all you need is the equivalent U.S. formula and a calculater. http://www.thebmc.co.uk/safety/advice/articles/issue18_down.pdfDavid
I've got a Montbell bag and the down inner jacket. I strongly feel that both need more, and better quality down to work to their potential. When fluffed to their maximum loft, both show significant gaps and thin areas within their fill areas. Even at consumer prices, down isn't *that* expensive--making the shell has to be the biggest part of the manufacturing cost. IMHO, based on their clever designs they'd be competing with the top echelon if they'd upgrade their insulation.
Curt--never pay full retail. I got my 900 fill bags off of Ebay.It's true, everyone needs to play out their own particular cost/benefit analysis. That being said, paying a premium for a Nunatak Arc w/ it's quality and versatility was well worth it for my particular needs---no regrets.I believe there are longevity issues associated w/ higher and lesser lofting down qualities. I've heard spin on both sides. My observation--- well maintained premium lofting down bags in my possession have been holding up better. There's not a little anecdotal evidence to this effect, also.
Edited by kdesign on 01/18/2006 12:33:02 MST.
I think the 750 fills weight is not the only problem, I have seen that my nunatak bag lofts much faster than my mont bell.but this may be because 10% of te fill is feathers not down

Sociology and criminal justice
Home / Academics / Sociology and criminal justice
As a sociology/criminal justice major, you'll study people in groups: peer and family groups, political parties, religious groups, minority groups, and entire societies. You'll investigate and debate social problems like poverty, war and crime—all in an effort to understand how people might relate to one another in a way that promotes restoration and reconciliation.
Our department's mission is to train you to think critically about the social world, help you develop skills for conducting social research, and engage you in exploring the diversity of the human experience. We want our sociology graduates to apply their skills to the pursuit of justice as they live out their calling in careers and communities around the world.
Located within the sociology department, the criminal justice major prepares students for a future career in law enforcement and related professional fields. Its instructors train students to think critically about the criminal justice system and to understand and implement evidence based practices. The department encourages students to apply these skills toward the pursuit of restorative justice as they live out their calling.
The criminal justice major is designed to assist students in entering an area of expanding need. The need is for professionalization and better prepared personnel in law enforcement, the court system, and in diverse areas in the corrections system. This major is also good preparation for graduate school, providing a knowledge and understanding of theory, social organization, methods and techniques. An internship of one semester is part of the major in order to provide additional practical experience in the field.

SILVER SPRING, Md. (WUSA9) -- A huge concern for thousands of people in our region is the reliability of Metro transit, especially during times of extreme temperatures.
The rail tracks expand during heat but on days like this one those same tracks contract, which can lead to problems.
There was one already Tuesday morning. Red Linetrains single tracked between Rhode Island and Fort Totten due to a broken rail. On the Orange Line, trains single tracked between New Cheverly and New Carrollton due toa disabled train in both directions.
You probably want to leave extra early to make sure you get to work on time. We're already starting to see delays.
Metro tells me they do have extra people on staff in case more problems arise.

Earlier today when posting the ratings for last night's episode I remarked that the interest in the Warehouse 13's ratings surprised me given that it seemed a complete lock to be renewed
I haven't seen an official press release yet (probably because it hasn't been issued yet!), but now Variety is reporting that Syfy has picked up the show for a second season of 13 episodes. Very interesting about the 50-50 gender mix:
Unlike other Syfy series, "Warehouse 13" has a near 50% female viewership and is performing better in its first season than the first season of "Battlestar Galactica," which ended its four-season run in March.
Thirteen episodes have been ordered for season two and, as with "Battlestar," that number could go up in subsequent seasons.
"We took a look at doing 20 episodes, but for logistic and financial reasons, it didn't make sense to do that right now, but I wouldn't rule it out," Syfy president Dave Howe told Daily Variety.

I wanted to share my experience this past February with how well my Fiesta performed at saving me.
I have recently moved from an urban area where I have never needed to have snow tires on an automobile to an area where I live on a dirt rd in the mountains of Vermont. Well I was driving down the mountain around 25-30 mph and lost control of the car which landed where you see. The car did everything it was supposed to do; engine shut off, airbags deployed, four ways flashed and the horn honked. Since I have sync in my car and my phone for safety is linked, sync asked if I wanted 911 called and it did.
I spoke to the Previous Fiesta Brand Manager and complimented him on a well made car.
This winter will be the first time I have ever bought snow tires and I only need them for one season on the Fiesta.
I hope this shows how safe this small compact is and how much I love it for keeping me safe.

I can't stand country music. Shit has always gotten on my last nerve with all that twangy, fake cowboy nonsense. They do got some hotties singing that shit though - hotties like Shania Twain, who just made her comeback with a sold out Vegas show last night after 8 years off the scene. And what a comeback it was for Shania. I might have despised her music all through the 90s when she was big, but the woman was sexy as hell anyway. Even now at 47, girl still rocks an awesome body in her sheer, faux see through body suit thing. I don't know about you, but I'd still be all over that. I'd probably have to wear some earplugs, just in case she decided to belt out any of her shitty songs mid coitus, but I wouldn't hesitate at all. She's the definition of MILF.

The city collects an ambulance service fee from all ambulance users, based on the level of care provided and the transport distance to a medical facility. Non-residents pay a higher fee. Fees are only imposed when the Fire Department ambulance provides transportation to an emergency room at a local hospital. There is no charge for emergency response without transport. Most health insurance policies, including Medicare, provide coverage for this type of service. The Park Ridge Fire Department became a certified provider for Medicare and Medicaid when the City first instituted the ambulance fees.
Ambulance fees are set by City ordinance to be in accordance with Medicare/Medicaid reimbursement schedules. No payment is requested or accepted at the time of service. Billing normally occurs within a few weeks of the incident. In cases of repeat users where insurance information is already on record, the bill is sent directly to the insurance provider and not to the patient.
Questions regarding ambulance service fees or billing questions can be directed to the Park Ridge Fire Department at (847) 318-5264 or email firstname.lastname@example.com .

Commission Urges Lawmakers to Appeal Sentencing Laws
New York, NY —
Former inmates and prison reformers were on hand today as the New York Sentencing Reform Commission held a hearing on possibly reforming the so-called Rockefeller drug laws.
REPORTER: The state has stiff sentencing rules that don't allow judges flexibility and put many people behind bars, who might be better served in treatment programs.
Anthony Pappa speaks from experience. He says he was behind bars for 12 years for carrying 4 ounces of cocaine
PAPPA: These laws don't work, they incarcerate too many blacks and latinos. It's costly, ineffective, treatment has been shown to be better and we need to change these laws.
REPORTER: There are two more hearings on sentencing reform in the state. They're in Albany and Buffalo over the next week. The Commission is tasked with making recommendations to the governor in the spring. There are nearly 14,000 people jailed for drug offenses in New York State prisons. They represent about 38 percent of the prison population.

Readership: Professionals as well as BA and graduate students in economics, economic history and Latin American or Mexican Studies. In general, the book should attract economic historians, development economists
and other experts interested in development issues in general, Latin Americanists, and anyone interested in Mexico's history of the last two centuries.The book may become part of the core reading list of undergraduate or graduate courses in development economics, economic history, as well as courses on social sciences focusing on Latin America or Mexico. It could also be used for courses on comparative studies on social and economic development.
Juan Carlos Moreno-Brid, ECLAC-UN, and Jaime Ros, professor of economics, University of Notre Dame
"This book proposes an interpretation of Mexican economic history over the past two centuries based on a simple but strong institutional thesis: growth has been fast when there has been a 'developmental consensus' but has slowed down otherwise. It is a must-read for Mexican and Latin American specialists but particularly for institutional economists." - Jose Antonio Ocampo, Professor, Columbia University, and former Executive Secretary of the United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean
