The Green Bay Packers were prepared to do an injury settlement with rookie Lawrence Guy and perhaps bring him back later in the season.
But they thought enough of him as a prospect that rather than risk losing the defensive end to another team, they decided to keep him on injured reserve all season.
Guy, a seventh-round draft pick from Arizona State, sustained a concussion during a training camp practice on Aug. 3. He returned to practice five days later, played in one preseason game but left practice on Aug. 17 and never returned when his concussion symptoms came back.
On Sept. 3, when the Packers made their final cuts, they told Guys agent, Jack Scharf, they planned to work out an injury settlement, which pays a player for the length of time he would be out. Following the length of the settlement, he is free to sign with another team.
They were thinking about that, but they wanted to keep me, Guy said. It makes me feel real good that they want to keep me here, keep me in the meetings and learn from the veterans.
Its not clear when the Packers changed their plan for Guy. His contract contained a split salary in case of injury, meaning he will earn $258,000 instead of the $375,000 he would have made had he been on the 53-man roster all season.
Guy said he went through a lengthy period during which he experienced headaches and nausea but has been symptom-free since about the middle of September.
Viewed as a project after leaving school a year early, the 6-foot-4, 304-pounder didnt turn 21 until a month before the draft. If he were on the team, he would be the second-youngest player on the roster behind only Randall Cobb, who turned 21 on Aug. 22.
Any time you come out as young as he did, there were some things, but it wasnt a glaring thing where it was like this guy was not ready to come out, Packers defensive line coach Mike Trgovac said. You get a naturally big guy like that whos got some strength, where we picked him, I think it was an excellent pick, and were hoping that we can develop him into a good player. Were treating him like hes on this football team. The only thing he cant do is be at practice.
Trgovac holds meetings in his office every day at 7 a.m. specifically for Guy and practice squad defensive lineman Johnny Jones. Guy also attends the position meeting and film session.
He doesnt have an injury thats a knee, an ankle, a shoulder, so he can do a great job in the weight room working out, getting bigger and stronger, eating right, learning how to go to bed at night and get up early, Trgovac said. Were not allowing him to get into a situation where hes sleeping in. Thats one of the things that we kind of requested. A lot of (injured reserve) guys end up going home. With his age, we thought it would be beneficial for him to stick around.
Physically, Guy is unlike any of the current defensive linemen, who are on the heavier side. Hes the longest, leanest member of the group. The Packers view him as a base 3-4 end whose best attribute could be his ability to the play the run.
Hes got the height, the arm length to where hes probably not going to be the best pass rusher in the world, but hell be able to get some push in there, Trgovac said. For what were looking for playing the run, he looked like he has a chance to be pretty good at it.
Newhouse absent: Marshall Newhouse is expected to rejoin the team in time for todays flight to Minnesota and will start at left tackle Sunday against the Vikings despite missing Fridays practice for a personal matter.
Newhouse left Green Bay on Thursday evening to attend to an issue the Packers did not disclose. Still, coach Mike McCarthy, who earlier in the week called this Newhouses biggest challenge of the season, believes his second-year tackle got enough work to prepare for facing the NFLs sack leader, Jared Allen.
Marshalls ready to play in the game Sunday, McCarthy said. Hes where he needs to be, with his family right now. Im very confident in Marshalls preparation, and I anticipate hell be back (today).
Another offensive lineman, backup Ray Dominguez, also missed Fridays practice for a personal reason.
Starting left guard Josh Sitton (knee) didnt practice Friday but is expected to play against the Vikings.
Injury report: Despite sustaining a concussion late in Thursdays practice, the Packers think defensive end Ryan Pickett has a good chance to play.
He was listed as questionable and didnt practice Friday.
Picks been playing real well, too, Trgovac said. So Im keeping my fingers crossed.
If theres a week they need Pickett, its probably this week considering theyre facing one of the leagues premier running backs, Adrian Peterson.
Theres no question about that, defensive coordinator Dom Capers said. You need all the big guys.
Cornerback Sam Shields, who sustained a concussion last Sunday against St. Louis, didnt practice all week and was listed as doubtful. A decision on Shields will be made today after another medical exam.
Neal still hopeful: Defensive end Mike Neal, who hasnt been on the field since his Aug. 16 knee injury, said Friday he remains hopeful he can play this season.
Although, as a source told the Press-Gazette earlier in the week, Neal confirmed thats not a sure thing.
The plan is to be able to play after the bye, but if I cant, I cant, Neal said. I cant please everybody. Ive got to take everything in stride and just deal with this. When its better, Ill be ready to play, and hopefully its this season at some point.
The Packers have their bye next week. The earliest Neal could return to practice is Oct. 31 but even then he would need more than just that week of practice to play in the first post-bye game, which is Nov. 6 at San Diego.
Neal had surgery Sept. 13 to remove loose cartilage that was discovered after several weeks of rehab and treatment didnt improve his knee.
When asked whether he thought he would play this season, Neal said: I dont want to say yes; I dont want to say no. The moment I say yes, and I dont, then somebodys going to be mad. Im just leaving the book open. Only time will tell.
Hawk fined: A league spokesman confirmed linebacker A.J. Hawk was fined $10,000 for an obscene gesture against the Rams. It was directed toward the Packers sideline, and Hawk said it was meant as a joke among teammates.

Expected Increase in Landlords Facing Rent Arrears
The majority of residential landlords in the UK face the challenge of dealing with their tenants falling into rental arrears, according to the statistics from Landlord Assist.
Reports showed that there will be 150,000 tenants having to face legal actions due to rental arrears by the end of the year. As predicted, the number of evictions and tenants with rental arrears will remain at an augmented level and rising even further in 2010.
A survey of Landlord Assist statistically revealed that nearly 75% of all residential landlords in the UK had tenants who fell into rental arrears. 43% of those landlords – in particular – had experienced tenants falling behind on their rental payments over the past 12 months. These figures correspond to the prediction of the soaring unemployment rates – which is expected to remain high in 2010.
Using legal actions to solve the problem on tenants' default costs a huge amount for the landlords. It is highly suggested that the only simple way to avoid tenants' arrears is to use preventative measures. Conducting tenants' reference checks with the appropriate Legal Expenses and Rent Guarantee Insurance cover have become particularly crucial in protecting all residential landlords. These credit checks can confirm to landlords the financial status and reliability of the prospective applicants.
All in all, landlords should purchase Legal Expenses and Rent Guarantee Insurance when they are ready to rent out their properties. For more information on Legal Expenses and Rent Guarantee Insurance and other Landlords Insurance, please visit Discount Landlord Insurance.

Hmmm....Maybe I am overthinking it. I could also use a numeric keypad and wire directly to that, but I still also want the rotary knobs for scrolling and volume control. back to thinking...
Ok I have had a functioning carputer for over 3 years now, but have never really had an outstanding way of controlling it. Up until a few months ago I never even ventured on this site and now I have come across many ways of doing things differently.
Now I have too many options.
The mazda Dash sucks considering the climate controls/radio controls are integrated into the dash. It looks like it's removable, but its not without some major work. I have taken it apart many times trying to come up with a good way of removing the radio controls. There are two parts that are attached to the radio control via board connectors or wires.
1, the hazard switch (no big deal only liek 4 wires) and
2, the climate controls (a bigger deal because the connectors are small).
I could crack open the case of the climate controls and wire them onto the radio control board, and then relocate the board making room for me to reloacte the screen from it's present location. Or, instead I can integrate the radio controls. It will maintain the factory look which is what I wanted all along anyway. I think I prefer the screen up high, and the utilize the dash mounted radio controls.
The volume knob is a rotary/pushbutton, so is the tune knob which I would like to use for scanning through lists similar to a scoll wheel on a mouse. I currently use RR but have not tried to do anything with girder. Instead right now I am using a keyspan programmable remote and have mapped the keys and programed the keytable.ini in RR for control. The problem with this is that the buttons are fairly small and hard to use while driving. That is another reason I am looking at integrating the radio dash buttons. It's just screaming at me to use them. So in that sense, the dash on the Mazda now becomes helpful since I don't need to dismantle the stock Radio. I also have steering wheel controls that I could use a SWI-X or carbuttons with at a later date.
1) Here is my dash
Or see pic below
2) Here are my options that I have come across:
-Phidgets Board-WHat i am trying to do is similar to this guy here.
-Hacked up USB game pad method (CDRskull's program)
-Carbuttons (www.madhacker.org)
Of other note, I like the Space NAvigator and maybe the powermate, but I have heard the powermate isn't as useful. Although these would not integrate with the dash buttons, they could be an alternate route to go.
Hardware that I have already that could be useful:
-USB gamepad similar to playstation controller
-Old Joystick
-Keyspan remote
-Xkeys 20 key programmable USB keypad
I am not a very good programmer and chose to avoid programming at all costs. It's just not something I like to do or have the time to sit down and figure it out. What I need is input from others/opinions on what the best way to do this is, time is not on my side and that is why I am asking.

Hmmm....Maybe I am overthinking it. I could also use a numeric keypad and wire directly to that, but I still also want the rotary knobs for scrolling and volume control. back to thinking...

Try looking at post #37 on this post. He talks about using a PIE adapter with the Aux CD Changer to get sound and control the PC. I think there was another post on this same subject from someone else. Try ing for all Mazda 6 installs.
If you make something Idiot proof....
The world will make a better Idiot.
CarPC Progresss: Planning [x-------------------]
I ahd seen that thread before but just skimmed it. After looking at the PIE adapter it's not quite what I meant, but thanks for trying to help. I am not looking to run the audio through factory radio. I am not even using the factory radio. All I really want to do is utilize the buttons on my dash as a custom computer control for Roadrunner.
My audio signal current goes through an ALpine processor which is soon to be replaced by all real-time software audio processing.
Basically I am going to have to wire up to each button switch and hardwire it to the input device end up picking.
System always under construction
I dont' know what buttons you referring to on the dash as there are too many of them .
- Look up car2PC adapter if there one for your car. If there is, you can use button on the radio to control the PC. I have one for the Alpine (M-Bus)and it works great. Waiting for the Ai-Net version.
- Hackup those "buttons" and read this thread RoadRunner USB Joystick V3.0 Released
2004 Matrix XR A7N8X-VM/400 AMD XP-M 2500+, DS-ATX
89 Supra Turbo P3 600E@750/Abit BE6 II, Alpine M-BUS Car2PC.
Y2K Accord Dell GX150
RoadRunner is the best FE PERIOD
EmoRebellion is a SCAMMER
I got my threads mixed up try this post. Look at the info on the Car2PC Adapter. It may be something your looking for.
If you make something Idiot proof....
The world will make a better Idiot.
CarPC Progresss: Planning [x-------------------]
I know I should have explained better and I began lookign deeper into the car2pc adapter but I didn;t see if it worked for Mazda. Anyway, I don;t think I want to go the cd changer route. On the newer mazdas, the radio is a double din behind the dash, but it "plugs" into the stereo buttons mounted on the dash. My plan was to complelely remove the factory radio since I dont use it anyway.
I began to research the rotary encode thign for voulme control and the cheapest and easiest way seems to be to hack apart a mouse and connect a rotary encoder to the mouse wheel. So what I plan is to connect the volume knob on my dash to the mouse wheel wired directly.
Then the rest of my stereo buttons would be used like the following:
AM----not used at the moment
FM----not used at the moment
AUX---Play MP3s
CD----Play CD
Seek up---track up
Seek down---track down
Preset buttons -----????Don't know what I'll use those for yet
Second rotary knob----maybe use another mouse wheel and use it to scroll up and down on lists. I jsut don't know how the comptuer will react with more than one mosue plugged in.
I was already looking at CDRskulls program to work with these buttons. Or I might just hack apart a numeric keypad and hardwire it and save CDRskulls program to interface with my steering wheel buttons (this would of cousre mean I need to run a bundle of wires directly to the steering colum, instead of using carbuttons or a SWI-X).
I'm looking for a picture of radio....
System always under construction
The radio is modular meaning it can be easily switched with a different verison of mazda radios or the can add on extra i.e. tape deck, or minidisc player.
Luckily I found the only pictures I have of my older 04. It was pretty much the same as my 06. Just the front looks like my first picture.
Here is the backside of my dash with the factory radio installed...
System always under construction
Then if you remove the modular radio, the buttons are still part of the dash via a circuit board that the climate controls and hazard switch plugs into.
System always under construction
Here is a closeup. I circle where the factory radio plugs into the face of the dash bezel circuit board. I don;t plan on wiring to those but instead to the buttons directly underneath the back plate cover.

Issaquah family bids bittersweet goodbye to business
June 22, 2011
By Warren Kagarise
NEW — 8 a.m. June 22, 2011
Goodfellas Sandwich Shop, a decade-old gathering spot for Issaquah High School sports teams and office workers on lunch breaks, is due to close Friday after owners Steve and Melinda Sanelli stack the last sandwiches.
Steve Sanelli, a longtime South Cove resident and Issaquah High assistant baseball coach, said business is good, but the impending closure stems from a disagreement between the eatery and the building owner.
"It would be one thing if I was failing in business and we had to close," he said. "This is something that's not my choice."
For Sanelli and other family members, the closure is about more than the bottom line.
"When you're in business this long, it kind of becomes who you are," Melinda Sanelli said. "In a way, you feel like you're being stripped of your personality and how everyone sees you and what you stand for."
The closure announcement came as a surprise to employees and customers.
Steve Sanelli said the building owner asked in March for the sandwich shop to vacate the space. The shop is due to close Friday, and then the Sanellis plan to spend another week packing and selling equipment.
Customers can stop in for a last hurrah at Goodfellas, 13555 36th St., Suite LL1, Bellevue. The store is open from 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.
"We have a lot of people who come in, that eat here, that are saddened by the whole idea that we're closing," Steve Sanelli said.
The husband-and-wife team opened Goodfellas in Eastgate in October 2001, and built a customer base for sandwiches and housemade meatballs and Italian sausage. The menu items' names nod to "The Sopranos" and mobster films.
Going out with a bada bing
Throughout the past decade, almost every Sanelli family member worked at the eatery and so, too, did spouses and significant others. Steve Sanelli's mother makes the meatballs served at Goodfellas. (Steve and Melinda Sanelli's children all graduated from Issaquah High.)
"A lot of kids, I don't think, would really want to work with their parents and live with their parents, to be with them 24/7," daughter Sicily Sanelli said. "But to be honest, it really brought all of us a lot closer together."
Daughter Angelina Edwins, a Snoqualmie resident, recalled bringing son Brody to play in the back room during stints at the shop.
"What I'm going to miss most is being able to go drop in, have lunch and see people," she said. "There are so many different friends and family that come in any time of day, any day of the week. You can just be sitting there eating lunch and see someone you haven't seen in a year or two. Or, one of our good friends might walk in and you can have lunch with them. Just to be able to catch up and see people that you don't normally see is such a great thing to have."
Jessica Crites, Melinda Sanelli's younger sister and a longtime employee at the store, said the upcoming closure is bittersweet.
"It's just time for them to move on the next chapter in their life, but boy, I'm sure going to miss this chapter," she said.
Crites mentioned another loss: Goodfellas' menu.
"Their food is just outstanding, I'm telling you, even if I wasn't family," she added. "There's nowhere around that serves the kind of sandwiches that they serve."
Crites and Melinda Sanelli started working in a family business early, at the former Puget Sound Baking Co. in Issaquah.
"I hate to see the fact that family business is falling to the side of the road," Melinda Sanelli said.
Steve Sanelli used to operate Sanelli's Deli in Factoria and, after the eatery closed years ago, he intended to open another sandwich shop.
"Between this sandwich shop and me coaching, that's been my life," he said. "That's what it's been all about."
Many customers called for the Sanellis to reopen elsewhere, but the start-up costs to open another eatery stand as a steep barrier.
"We don't have $150,000 to go out and gut a building and start all over again," Steve Sanelli said.
Opening the next chapter
In the meantime, Steve Sanelli is coaching a Lakeside Recovery baseball team and Melinda Sanelli plans to continue another job at PCC Natural Market.
"We're all proud of him and my mom, and are sorry that it had to end this way," Sicily Sanelli said. "They ran a great company for the past 10 years. They're going to do great things, I know that."
In addition, the family is ready for a long-overdue vacation — a hopeful prospect amid the many tasks needed to shut down Goodfellas.
"We've been married to this business for 10 years," Melinda Sanelli said. "We haven't been able to go on any long-term vacation, because when you have your own business, you can't just up and go when you feel like it. Now I guess we'll have a little bit more free time to do that."
Goodfellas also gained a reputation for generosity, because Steve Sanelli often used the eatery to promote community causes.
The owners set up a Christmas tree donation site to collect gifts for the Issaquah Food and Clothing Bank during the holiday season, and organized a relief effort after neighbors lost everything in a house fire just before Christmas 2008. Customers dropped off donations at the shop.
In South Cove, Steve Sanelli is also known for elaborate holiday displays featuring enough colored lights to make Clark Griswold blush.
The can-do spirit he brought to Goodfellas is certain to be important in the future, family members said
"Steve, he's a talker and he's a salesperson and he's got some good ideas," Melinda Sanelli said. "He'll find his way."

I wanted to say goodbye yesterday, but Steve & Melinda were slammed with last minute orders. They have been a part of our community's life since Carmella stood the counter at Sanelli's in Loehman's Plaza. They are the bed-rocks that form wholesome, vibrant neighborhoods anywhere in America. They should be proud of every day of service they gave to their customers and community.
I only wish that yesterday I'd had the nerve to order 10 gallons of Carmella's sauce.

Such a huge loss for our neighborhood, I am very disappointed. What about the dancing guy who stood on the sidewalk and held their sign, does anyone now what he is going to do now?
Got something to say?

Notre Dame Academy 8, Barnstable 4: Red Raider pitcher Alicia Creswell struck out 12 batters, but the Cougars struck for 12 runs in their win in Hingham.
Sarah Higgins got Barnstable on the board first with a single that scored Creswell.
Barnstable (0-7) was held off the scoreboard from then until the seventh inning when a walk and an error plated two more.
Mia Crowley turned in a fine defensive play in the fifth, snagging a line-drive at first base.

The Trinity - Control, Alt, Delete
"Computers- either you love 'em or you hate 'em. One of the things that drives me crazy is when I get too many applications going on my computer. When that happens I have to hit three buttons- control, alt, delete. Three buttons in one function. That's kind of like that in my faith life too. Whenever I get too many things in my life going on, too many windows open, sometimes God wants me to slow down and it's in those moments I really have to stop and refocus on the trinity. I have to give up control to God. I have to allow the blood of Jesus to delete my sins, and I have to live in an alternate way, in the Holy Spirit. Three buttons one function. Three persons, one God. So if your life's getting a little out of control right now, refocus on the trinity. Slow down, reboot your computer. Because when life closes doors, God opens windows. Course, the control alt delete only works on, on PC's. Maybe that's because it was the "apple" that got us into this mess. God loves ya'."

I have an Ubuntu 12.10 system on my PC and an Android 4.1 system on my Galaxy Nexus. Now I would like to share the Internet connection of my PC via USB with my Phone. I have been searching with Google a lot, but I only found answers how you can share the Internet connection of the Phone with the PC, but I want it the other way around.
This is not possible. But if you have a rooted Android, there is a trick, it's called Reverse USB tethering. Check out this article, author did that on Fedora, but I guess there should be no problems achieving the same on Ubuntu.

Enigmatic figures rise from concave discs on the front of this massive Tenmoku Vase by modern sculptural artist Ohi Toshiro enclosed in the original signed wooden box. The gourd shaped form is covered in a mottled red Kaki-yu spotted with flashes of black. The smooth evenly graduated sides contrast with the sharp rough edge of the opening, both surprising and pleasing. Signed clearly on the base, the vase is 14 inches (36 cm) tall, 9-1/2 inches (24 cm) diameter and in perfect condition. Toshiro was born in 1927, the first son of Ohi Chozaemon IX. He graduated the Tokyo University of Arts in 1949, and then returned for a short time to the family kiln. He has since been professor at a number of prestigious Japanese institutions. He has been a consistent exhibitor with the Nitten National Exhibition, and served as both judge and director there, as well as acting as judge for the Asahi Ceramics Exhibition. He was awarded the Japan Ceramics Society award in 1957. He was also granted the Art Academy Award of Japan, perhaps one of the most prestigious of all honors in this country in 1985. He has been actively exhibiting abroad since 1949, including North America, The former Soviet Union, most of Europe as well as in the Middle East. In 1983 a tea bowl made by Toshiro was given as a gift to the Emperor and it, as well as several subsequent pieces, are in the permanent collection of the Imperial Household Agency). He accepted the name of Ohi Chozaemon X in 1987. Since his reputation has only grown greater. There is a derth of information available on this artist.

"Error: uncaught exception: Permission denied to get property Window.frames"
Similiar thing happens when I call from pop-up window to

Through Mondays reported scores
Tom DeCou didnt plan on shaking up the Millville High School boys tennis teams lineup.
But when four varsity players skipped the Thunderbolts 5-0 loss to Vineland on May 2 to prepare for prom, even though the match was moved up an hour to accommodate it, the Millville coach was backed into a corner.
It kind of forced my hand to do it, DeCou said. I brought a JV kid up, Joe Iocono, he wasnt even first JV. He was my No. 10 player. Ron Boorman came up from second doubles to play first. And I said I was going to play some young kids and give them a chance.
And some of those youngsters are taking advantage specifically Iocono, a sophomore, and freshman Phil Ballas.
Though the pair lost their first doubles match 6-0, 6-0 to Vinelands Frank Conroy and Nick Mayo that day, theyve shown they are quick learners. Theyve won four straight matches since, one at first doubles and three at second doubles, and their last three triumphs have been the difference in the Bolts three-match winning streak, all of which came by 3-2 scores.
Theyre consistent, DeCou said of his young tandem. They dont make a lot of unforced errors. Theyre not big hitters, dont have big serves and dont make a lot of errors. Theyre very consistent. They dont beat themselves. And theyre like sponges, they soak up everything in practice and theyre willing to learn.
Millville avenged losses to Atlantic City and Absegami during the streak and also topped a solid Lower Cape May squad. The three victories doubled the teams win total for the entire season.
We just went into our first game that we were both in and thought, Hey, we have nothing to lose because were both young and both new, Ballas said.
That didnt mean they thought theyd be this successful.
At first, I thought I was going to lose every game, Iocono said, but Im actually doing a lot better than I expected.
The tandems skill set complements each other very well. Iocono has shown strong cross-courts and lobs, while Ballas strengths are his volleys and backhands.
Were balanced out, Ballas said.
And DeCou isnt going to mess with a good thing.
As frustrating as the season has been, the last week or two has been encouraging to see, he said.
Colt Classic
Cumberland had a solid showing at its annual Colt Classic tournament on May 3-4.
Hunter Wescoat and James Thompson defeated Senecas Phen Moschini and Justin Wright, 6-4, 6-1, to capture the second doubles title, while Jeb Taylor reached the first singles final before falling to Senecas Cody Cassise, 6-3, 6-2.
Cumberlands Vinay Patel and Zach Hughes reached the first doubles final as well. They fell to Senecas Jake Davis and Mike Miller, 7-5, 6-2.
Schalick also competed in the tourney and got one win apiece from doubles duos Matt Francisci-Noah Papiano and Dan Coppage-Riccardo Saverese.
Millvilles recent winning streak has also been aided by the teams No. 2 Alex Rusted. Hes won four straight matches and five of six. ... Buena broke the programs single-season wins record with its 5-0 victory over Collingswood in the opening round of the Group II South playoffs. It was the Chiefs 14th win, besting the 13 they won in 2012. ... Entering Tuesday, Cumberlands Taylor, St. Augustine No. 3 Haddon Antonucci and Delseas top doubles tandem of Phil Franco and Jake Lachowicz shared the areas longest current winning streaks at five.
Josh's Smashing Six*
1. Vineland (12-6) The second-seeded Fighting Clan were stunned in the opening round of the Group IV South playoffs by 15th-seeded Lenape, 3-2, on May 8.
2. St. Augustine (11-7) The Hermits also were upset in the playoffs. Prep, the No. 3 seed in the Non-Public A South tournament, fell to No. 6 seed Notre Dame in the quarterfinals on Monday.
3. Delsea (9-7) The Crusaders took down Buena 3-2 on May 5 and played Seneca tough in the opening round of the Group III South playoffs on May 8.
4. Buena (15-3) No. 2 Zack Fountas and No. 3 Jesse Repko share the team lead with 15 wins this season.
5. Cumberland (7-7) Colts have a legitimate argument for the No. 3 spot on this list having beaten Delsea earlier this year. Cumberland, Delsea and Buena are all very close to each other.
6. Schalick (11-9) The Cougars, the No. 7 seed in the Group I South playoffs, upset second-seeded Lindenwold 3-2 in the quarterfinals on Monday.

Westmoreland Museum of American Art makeover under way
Judith O'Toole held up her cellphone on Monday and recorded the start of a new era at the Westmoreland Museum of American Art in Greensburg.
The director and chief executive officer captured on video the toppling of the first of four 30-foot-tall granite columns that created a grand entrance to the museum. Removal of the columns marks the end of the museum's austere look and a start toward its more inviting appearance, O'Toole said.
O'Toole said the columns helped give the museum a "governmental-looking" appearance — a perception she said discouraged visitors. People often have told her they would have visited the museum but didn't think they were dressed well enough or knew enough about art to go in, she said.
Museum officials removed the columns as part of an overall $18 million expansion that will bring 12,500 square feet of additional space for galleries, studios and classrooms.
Workers for James Construction of Carnegie used the 75-foot-long arm of a piece of heavy equipment to shove the grayish-white pillar to the ground with a loud bang. Earlier they had jack-hammered and removed steel supports above the columns.
"Wow!" O'Toole said as she recorded the pillar slamming to the earth.
About a dozen museum staff members who stood watching along North Main Street applauded when the column toppled.
A covered walkway with tables and chairs will replace the four columns. A 60-foot cantilevered structure will be added to the North Maple Avenue side of the museum.
Extensive landscaping is planned for an area to the front of the museum's main entrance, making the building more visible to passersby.
O'Toole and the staff watched the second column come down about 2 p.m. Monday. Shortly before noon, workers had to take the first pillar down for safety reasons after it developed a crack, said Rick Avon, superintendent for general construction manager Spaulding Banks Inc.
The columns will be ground up and reused, helping museum officials to get the LEED certification they want for using environmentally friendly construction practices.
"What they'll be reused for, I don't know," O'Toole said.
Most of the materials on site are to be recycled, said Chuck Ballein, director of museum facilities. "Everything that can be recycled is being recycled," he said.
Museum officials want to reopen the cultural attraction in 2015.
They are using the Unity building that formerly housed Stickley Audi and Co. on Village Drive, off Route 30, as a temporary site for the museum, called Westmoreland @rt30.

Concerning the recent tragedy, it seems so many folks are too quick to blame the gun. It was a mentally ill sicko with access to legally owned guns.
If you want to blame someone other than the shooter, you should look at his mother. What mother in her right mind would leave guns and ammo where a son whom she knows is unbalanced has access to them? To leave a gun unsecured is bad enough, but to do it in a home with a nut case for a son is not only dumb, it borders on aiding and abetting.

how did you make the case, im having so much trouble with cases!!!!!!
The CPU case was made out of smalls drawers we got at Ikea and hinges and plexiglass from Homedepot. It worked and looked great but lately there's lots of better small form factor barebones to choose from.
Check out New Egg and pick up an Shuttle XPC 200 or similar. Check AOpen too.
And check our sites gallery for current CarPC projects. We'll be uploading a few more this weekend.
decent job with the molding, although it still looks rough around the edges of the screen and you can see the housing line on the right side...don't worry though I went thru 3 aftermarket dash kits before I finally got mine right, that was in my 03 RSX, in my Z the screen popped right in- insanely easy.

The Awkward Squad
What chance does Lorna have of a quiet weekend when both daughters and her granddaughter descend on her with their own problems in this touching and hilarious family encounter.
Laughter and northern grit can get her only so far - she's spent three decades working for everyone else though the miners' strikes, local milk schemes and library closures and tomorrow she's to have a community centre named after her - but here's her granddaughter thinking her new boob job is more important!
Audiences are laughing and crying along as a BAFTA, impending divorce, redundancy and a very upmarket caravanette give Lorna and her feisty daughters the chance to reconsider both the past and the future - for everyone.
What's a woman to do? Accept everything that's thrown at her, or become a fully paid-up member of the 'awkward squad'?
BAFTA-winning Emmerdale writer Karin Young's play is an uplifting, heartfelt comedy, taking a sideways look at the challenges faced by modern women of all ages.
Starring Charlie Hardwick (Val in ITV's Emmerdale), Barbara Marten (Casualty, Coronation Street, Brookside), Libby Davison (The Bill, Hollyoaks) and Lisa McGrillis (Shakespeare's Globe & Pitmen Painters)

ISA's products and services are organized by technical topic – a selection of technologies, trends, and areas of focus that are relevant to your on-the-job performance:
Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, USA (10 July 2014) – The ISA Security Compliance Institute (ISCI) announces the availability of the ISASecure® SDLA certification for organizations that develop industrial automation and control systems (IACS). This new organizational certification ensures that suppliers include cybersecurity requirements in all phases of their development and maintenance lifecycle processes for IACS products.
The (SDLA) certification ensures that a supplier's product development organization has institutionalized cybersecurity into their product development and support lifecycle processes and follows them consistently on an ongoing basis. The objective of this certification is to ensure that cybersecurity is designed into IACS products from the beginning and is followed throughout all product development and support lifecycle phases. SDLA is aligned to certify to ISA/IEC 62443-3-1. The SDLA program description and certification specifications are available for download in pdf format from the ISCI website at www.isasecure.org.
Supplier organizations are encouraged to contact an ISASecure-accredited lab for details on how to certify their organizations' product development and support lifecycle processes. Supplier organizations earning this designation may use the phrase, "An ISASecure SDLA certified development organization," when describing their certified organizations.
ISCI has been certifying embedded devices under the Embedded Device Security Assurance certification (ISASecure EDSA) scheme since 2010. EDSA, the first ISASecure certification, assures cybersecurity for off-the-shelf embedded devices and lists certified devices from prominent suppliers such as Honeywell and Yokogawa.
The ISASecure™ program has been developed by the ISA Security Compliance Institute (ISCI) with a goal to accelerate industry-wide cybersecurity improvement for IACS. ISASecure certifications are based upon international cybersecurity standards including the ISA/IEC 62443 series, ISO 27001and other relevant industry-consensus standards.
The ISASecure IACS cybersecurity certification program is an ISO/IEC Guide 65 conformance scheme supporting ISCI's goal to operate a globally recognized IACS cybersecurity certification program. Independent third-party accreditation of ISCI labs by IEC accreditation bodies (AB) such ANSI/ACLASS and JAB ensures the credibility and value of the ISASecure certification by objectively attesting to the competence and qualification of ISCI certification bodies (CB) and laboratories.
Founded as an industry not-for-profit in 2007, the ISA Security Compliance Institute's mission is to provide the highest level of assurance possible for the cybersecurity of industrial automation control systems (IACS).
The Institute was established by thought leaders from major organizations in the industrial automation controls community seeking to improve the cyber security posture of Critical Infrastructure for generations to come. ISCI Members include Chevron, ExxonMobil, Aramco Services, Honeywell, Invensys (now Schneider Electric), Yokogawa, exida, Codenomicon, CSSC, and IPA-Japan.
The Institute's goals are realized through industry standards compliance programs, education, technical support, and improvements in suppliers' development processes and users' life cycle management practices. The ISASecure® designation ensures that IACS products conform to industry consensus cyber security standards such as IEC 62443, providing confidence to users of ISASecure products and systems and creating product differentiation for suppliers conforming to the ISASecure specification.

Boy Scouts of America representatives passed a resolution Thursday that includes the statement "No youth may be denied membership in the Boy Scouts of America on the basis of sexual orientation or preference alone."
This vote happened in the middle of a three-day national business meeting at a resort in Grapevine, Texas. Seven delegates representing the Boy Scouts of America Middle Tennessee Council are attending the meetings.
These seven delegates were elected by local boards to represent the ideals of the members of the Middle Tennessee Council, ideals that oppose the new resolution, according to Middle Tennessee Council President Lee Beaman in a press release issued by the Middle Tennessee Council.
"We are continuing to uphold the standards, beliefs and traditions scouting has held for more than 100 years," Beaman said in a release. "As a representative of the 35,000 youth and adults in the Middle Tennessee Council, it is our duty to take their voice to Grapevine, Texas on May 23 with a vote to uphold the current membership policy"
Hugh Travis, scout executive for the Middle Tennessee Council said in the press release, "The results overwhelmingly signify that the parents, leaders and chartered partners in the Middle Tennessee Council believe that the current membership policy is a core value of the Scout Oath and Law."
Jeff Hall, committee chairman of Troop 293 in Lebanon, explained those core values he said the Middle Tennessee Council attempted to uphold Thursday.
"Duty to God is one of the three virtues of the Scout Oath," Hall said. "To keep oneself morally straight is one of the 12 Scout Laws. With similar principles being the foundation of our country, I don't see why those of another opinion deem it necessary to alter our private organization's values."
With same-sex marriage now legal in 12 states, the Boy Scouts of America are now set to join the changing position on gay people. Hall believes, though, with the new resolution, the Boy Scouts will lose some backing.
"The unfortunate part is no matter how the vote tallies this week a dissection has already occurred," Hall said prior to the vote. "Many great volunteer leaders have lost faith in the National Board and are leaving scouting after many years of service. People and corporations who have donated funding for decades are now choosing to continue or not based upon the vote."
The Boy Scouts of America's previous policy of refusing membership to those who are openly gay was a debated topic for years. In 2000, the issue culminated in a Supreme Court case, Boy Scouts of America v. Dale. In the landmark case, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the Boy Scouts of America on basis of a private organization's First Amendment right to freedom of association.
With a majority of the 1,400 representatives who attended the meeting in Grapevine, Texas approving the new resolution, it will go into effect Jan. 1, 2014. However, the Boy Scouts of America will continue to prohibit openly gay men from holding leadership roles in the organization.

Butte College and the Butte-Glenn Career Pathways Consortium (BGCPC) have been awarded a $5.8 million competitive grant by the California Department of Education to help students stay in school and move toward college and employment in high-demand fields in Butte and Glenn Counties.
The Career Pathways Grant was awarded to the Butte-Glenn Career Pathways Consortium (BGCPC), a regional, collaborative partnership with Butte College as the fiscal agent, Butte County Office of Education, Butte County school districts, Glenn County Office of Education, Glenn County school districts, business entities, community organizations and agencies, local workforce investment board, and CSU, Chico.
"The grant integrates academic and career-focused curriculum and experiences and will build or expand 34 career pathways in 17 partner secondary schools in Butte and Glenn counties. The grant will serve over 2,500 students annually over the next five years," said Kimberly Perry, President/Superintendent, Butte College.
A regional career pathways system, BGCPC offers linked learning models aligned with regional and statewide economic needs to support college and career readiness for students. It offers evidence-based, high-quality career pathway curricula using models from the National Academy Foundation, Project Lead The Way, and the Health and Science Pipeline Initiative.
"Butte County Office of Education could not be more excited about the efforts of Butte College, Butte County Office of Education Regional Occupational Program (ROP) and our local high schools in obtaining the California Career Pathways Trust. We look forward to working with the Butte College in building a structure of academics that weaves effective job training preparedness to compliment the local and regional needs for career ready students," said Tim Taylor, Superintendent, Butte County Office of Education.
The grant includes adaptive curriculum strategies; multiple entry and exit points; a continuum of work-based learning opportunities; integrated life skills/education interventions; and wrap around career services to participating students. Students will be able to select from high-skill, high-wage, and high-growth career pathways that will be offered in the following sectors: Engineering & Architecture; Health; Information & Communication Technology; and Manufacturing & Product Development.
"Students in Glenn County will receive genuine opportunities to prepare for a real career in the field of their choice - an educational option that has been a tad scant for far too long. Our sincere thanks to those who helped secure this grant; best wishes and congratulations to those students who take advantage of this opportunity," said Tracy Quarne, Superintendent, Glenn County Office of Education.
The California Career Pathways Trust was spearheaded last year by Senate President pro Tempore Darrell Steinberg, and established a one-time $250 million competitive grant program in the state's 2013-14 budget. Grant recipients are tasked with creating sustained career pathways programs that connect businesses, K–12 schools, and community colleges to better prepare students for the 21st century workplace.
State officials received 123 eligible applications containing about $709 million in requested grants, nearly triple the $250 million in available funding resulting in 39 grants awarded statewide. Applicants included community college districts, county offices of education, direct-funded charter schools, and school districts.

Thanks Jim,
Tartrazine has an absorption maximum of 427nm and I have a scan from the Sigma dye book somewhere around here that shows its UV absorption to be decent. It's not as good as some other candidates, but I think it'll be an improvement over no dye.
Also, the fact that it's so common and that nearly everyone has some in their kitchen cupboard is a big appeal.

Rajnikanth's awkward scenes with DeepikaComment on this story
Superstar Rajnikanth may have romanced many heroines onscreen with ease, but the film-maker revealed he had faced awkward moments shooting for his daughter Soundarya Ashwin's directorial debut, Kochadaiiyaan.
"He felt very awkward during the romantic scenes with Deepika Padukone (the film's heroine) with me saying 'action' and 'cut,'" Ashwin said.
While Rajnikanth as "appa" (father) was very protective, "he was very professional" as an actor and this was evident while making the movie, she said.
The superstar supported her like most new directors would. Asked if she would direct her father again, she said: "I feel blessed and grateful to direct him. If God is kind enough, I shall direct another film with him." – Oneindia.in

When I was in my early twenties, I worked for then-Congressman Henry Helstolski to keep his 9th Congressional seat. The 9th District always was part of Bergen County. Now I live in Sussex, and did once run against Congressman Garrett for the 24th Legislative District, and that is what Rothman should have done in the fifth district. That would have been a true discussion of issues, though PAC money runs out of each of them.
I have had the pleasure of meeting Congressman Bill Pascrell on numerous occasions, and once worked on an effort to get Paterson ISO 9000. The congressman is a fighter and should be returned to Congress. For once Bill Clinton and I can agree on something, and that is that Mr. Pascrell is indeed a fighter for a middle class in decline.
Rothman should have waged a race against someone that he is supposedly in opposition to on a number of issues - Congressman Garrett. Look, both are nice guys - Rothman and Garrett - but the nation needs someone who does not tell us he feels our pain, and then proposes issues that either are too engaged in spending or too engaged to a history of supposed free markets at all costs.
I would vote for Bill Pascrell over Rothman in the primary, and get 85 percent or better against the Republican.

Reservations about the season-compromising knee injury he suffered last season while with the University of Denver are a thing of the past, he told NHL.com on Wednesday during an appearance at an Upper Deck event at the Hershey Centre.
"We've been skating hard for the last three weeks and (the knee) feels 100 percent," Bozak said. "It feels all better and back to normal."
Even though the injury to his knee scared the daylights out of him and limited him to just 23 games as a sophomore with the Pioneers, Bozak insists there was a silver lining associated with the first serious injury of his young career.
"The injury actually got my upper body bigger and that was what I needed," Bozak said. "So, in a way, I look at it as I know it's not a good thing, but I try to take positives out of it and I am stronger and my upper body is a lot bigger.
In fact, Bozak was considered ready by many to come out after his freshman season at Denver, but decided to stay a second year because he did not feel he was strong enough to compete at the pro level. Now, however, thanks to all the time spent in the gym during the rehab process, he believes he has a body ready for the rigors of the NHL.
"I've put on about 20 pounds since last year when I decided to stay, so I think it was a good decision and I am happy with it," Bozak said.
Leaf fans are happy with the addition of Bozak, part of an aggressive overhaul of the team being engineered by GM Brian Burke. Not only has Burke brought in a number of proven NHL free agents, but he has rolled the dice with some young unproven free agents.
Since the 2008-09 season ended, Burke and his group has signed Bozak, Christian Hanson, Robert Slaney and Jonas Gustavsson, a Swedish goalie considered at the time of his signing to be the best goalie not playing in the NHL.
"(Bozak)'s a responsible player at both ends of the ice and he has shown the ability to put points on the board with his quickness at the collegiate level," Burke said upon signing Bozak, who was pursued by virtually every team in the League.
"The injury actually got my upper body bigger and that was what I needed. So, in a way, I look at it as I know it's not a good thing, but I try to take positives out of it and I am stronger and my upper body is a lot bigger."
-- Tyler Bozak
Bozak's college coach George Gwozdecky compared him to Paul Stastny, another U of D product who is now a burgeoning star with the Colorado Avalanche. In two NCAA seasons, Bozak produced 57 points in 60 games. He led the Pioneers in scoring as a freshman, but was still a plus-12 with five shorthanded goals. In his final season of juniors, playing with the Victoria Grizzlies of the British Columbia Hockey League, Bozak put up a league-best 128 points.
Now, however, Bozak knows his past accomplishments mean very little. Toronto is hungry for a winner after several lean years and Bozak and Co. are being counted on to be at the vanguard of that resurgence.
He says the opportunity to right the Maple Leafs was part of the reason he signed with the Original Six franchise.
"I know Burkie and the type of guy he is and how good a general manager he is," Bozak said. "It's a team that is sort of in a rebuilding process with our defense and our goaltending now, all the way up to our forwards. It's exciting and something I wanted to be a part of.
"There's still a lot of competition here and it is going to be hard to make this team. I'm just looking to fit in and fill a role."
That's right, Bozak plans to make the Maple Leafs this year, jumping right from college to the most-scrutinized team in the League. He was in Toronto after he signed in the spring and got a taste for the passion the city possesses for the team. He has spent the summer here, working out with other Toronto prospects and he remains amazed about how consumed the populace is with the Leafs
"I've had a good taste of Toronto and I love it," Bozak said. "When I was up here last year after my (college) season, I got a really good taste. I was just in the room and saw the guys and how everything went. The fan support is unbelievable here and the organization is in great shape and things are looking up for the next few years."

Just stumbled across it on Facebook. Somebody on my friends list read some article, using one of those stupid social readers, with the headline "Birth Rape: Why is it happening in our hospitals?" Of course that got a giant WTF, so I searched for the term wondering whether doctors/nurses/staff somewhere were supposedly sexually assaulting infants and/or exhausted, vulnerable new mothers. Instead, I got this:
Summary: If your doctors are too pushy and/or impersonal during delivery, some fringe of the feminist movement thinks you are the victim of something remotely equivalent to rape. I just thought you'd all like to know that.

It is indeed a very important societal project to randomly (I mean, utterly randomly) pick out specific constructions meant to defend woman's dignity (come on now, you know what REALLY threatens this one, it's not the wrongdoers, it's the critics), ridicule them and everyone steps out a bit wiser. Al's reaction highlights how well this project is undergoing. Congrats, Elok. The question is, WHOSE project is it really?
Never act randomly if you don't quote get who you're serving. Then again, Poly IS a conservative stronghold.
Say wut? Are you saying that, by ridiculing an attempt to compare insensitive doctors to sexual predators, I'm serving some kind of shadowy fifth column interests?
He's saying that by criticizing women's rights, you are implying something similar to those criticizing affirmative action.

"South Africa is a shithole. It used to be a decent place." -Ben Kenobi, sharing his wisdom on world history
You'd hope none, but this would suggest that sometimes thats exactly whats happening. Presumably its going to be mostly a side effect of overworked, tired doctors, but its statistically certain that there are going to be some doctors who are just *******s, like there are *******s in every profession.
There's certainly room for improvement when it comes to birthing in hospitals. The process is designed for doctors' convenience, not that of the woman giving birth; for example, lying on her back is a lousy position to give birth from, since it means she's got to push the baby *up* out of her birth canal, against gravity. But the position gives doctors easy access, so that's what they do. And so on.
This is true....its statistically certain that there are going to be some doctors who are just *******s, like there are *******s in every profession.

"We confess our little faults to persuade people that we have no large ones." - François de La Rochefoucauld
Lets put this another way for people who don't have the imagination to understand...this is a combination of 2 things that surely anyone can relate to and its not a 'liberal minded' problem
-say you have surgery for something e.g heart surgery..maybe there are two options...you way up the recovery rates and risks and choose what best and someone gasses you and does the opposite...you would be pretty pissed no?
- being penetrated is always more distressing than say having your pulse taken, in certain contexts it is neccesary and not sexual e.g airport searches. However if there was no legal reason, or if you were forced and strapped down...it may feel much more distressing than if it is done in a proffesional, consentual manner, you would have cause to complain no?
- add into to someone 'proffessional' intervening with your child...the type of birth not only changes how the female heals/recover..there are certain birthing processes that the human system needs to go through...if someone enforced that decision onto what to do with your child by misleading, lying and then knocking you out again...
YOU WOULD BE FORCED TO FIND A NAME AS SHOCKING AS THE EXPERIENCE...go ask you Mum how she would have felt if this happened to her...then post your 'civilised' opinion.....
I strongly approve of the label "birth rape" for those cases where the doctor jams his erect penis in "to try and lever the baby out." Most other cases, not so much. Those would be cases of "professional misconduct" or "malpractice."
Nor is yawn rape, really...and I think we can all agree that this is far more important an issue.

Being lazy, I'll just assume it involves the logistically problematic act of whipping it out and in while someone has his/her mouth open for a yawn. That's what it sounds like, anyway.
Yeah, but only with a finger. At least in the definition I have come across. Although I dare say the alternative has been tried
