SunPower Tops List of Best Solar Panel Manufacturers
SunPower makes the best solar panels in the world and Kaco makes the best inverters in the world and Direct Power and Water makes the best mounting systems in the world, according to new research conducted by ENF among directors of photovoltaic installation companies in 45 different countries.
The directors were asked to name which brands of photovoltaic components they have purchased in the last 12 months, and rate the products for their quality and value for money. An average of these two scores has been used to find the companies whose customers thought most highly of their products.
The top ranking companies receiving awards are:
Solar Panels
No.1 in World – SunPower (USA)
No.2 in World – Schott Solar (Germany)
No.3 in World – SolarWorld (Germany)
Best Product Quality – Sanyo (Japan)
Best Value for Money – Suntech (China)
Solar Inverters
No.1 in World – Kaco (Germany)
No.2 in World – OutBack (USA)
No.3 in World – Mastervolt (USA)
Best Product Quality – OutBack (USA)
Best Value for Money – Kaco (Germany)
Solar Mounting Systems
No.1 in World – Direct Power and Water (USA)
No.2 in World – UniRac (USA)
No.3 in World – Schuco (Germany)
Solar Trackers
No.1 in World -? Zomeworks (USA)
Solar PV Systems
No.1 in World -? Sharp (Japan)
The research found that 49 percent of companies thought the cell brand in a panel was important, and the most commonly named cell brands that installation companies thought were high quality were Sharp, Q-Cells and BP Solar.
Another key finding was that the average price installers paid for their solar panels in 2006 was $4.16 per Watt. Installers in Europe paid on average 10 percent more for their panels than installers in Asia Pacific.

In Wives Tales
Cooking Food in Microwave Plastic
There are some long-standing wives tales and weird rumors about microwaves and plastic. This goes for microwaving food in so-called reusable plastic containers. Many people be…lieve it's okay to cook in microwave plastic while others are quite adamant in their belief that it is not safe to microwave your food in microwavable containers and cite their concerns about cancer causing effects.When deciding to microwave food in a plastic container it is important to know how to tell if such a container is safe to use in the microwave. You can determine this by checking the item or its packaging label and follow any instructions. If neither the item nor the package is marked, it?s best to use a different container just to ensure your safety. Some products may use the term ?Microwave Safe.? This is the manufacturer?s way of letting consumers know that a product has been designed to withstand microwave heat without melting or warping under normal conditions. Other products may carry a microwave symbol or simply provide instructions for proper microwave use. Either of these is an indication that a product is suitable for microwaving when used in accordance with the directions provided.The reason many people are concerned about the wives tales of microwaving in plastic is because of beliefs that chemicals in the plastic may produce cancer-causing reactions when heated. Bisphenol-A (BPA) and phthalates are chemicals added to hard plastic to make them flexible, and are used in eyeglasses frames, baby bottles, and microwave plastics. Some believe the chemicals can leach into food and liquids in certain conditions. To address these fears states like California, Washington State, and Vermont, have limited the allowable amount of BPAs and phthalates in plastic products. Congress added a partial phthalate ban to consumer-protection laws passed in August of 2011. While legislators have been scurrying to pass protective laws, the federal agencies entrusted with overseeing our health have been slow to respond. Consumers need to be careful and choose wisely when microwaving food in plastic.Even with laws in place about plastic and BPA consumers still have some minor reasons to be concerned about plastic and its possible cancer causing elements. Even microwave safe plastic containers carry that chemicals will leach into your food using plastic wrap to cover your food while heating. This is because the plastic wrap can leach some of plasticizer or the gummy fibers that makes the plastic wrap bend and mold as you need it. Such plastic wraps contain chemicals that, when leached into food can enter into bloodstream and potentially cause cancer down the road.For several years, there have been wives tale and rumors alleging that microwaving food in plastic containers releases dioxin. This wives tale is untrue as dioxins are a group of compounds that can be produced by combustion at very high temperatures. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has stated that there is no evidence that any of the plastics used in microwaveable containers and films produce dioxins when heated. The rumors began when widely distributed emails purporting to stem from a warning by the Johns Hopkins Medical Center swept across the Internet. Johns Hopkins has denied that the emails were sent by any of their staff.If you want to avoid the fear behind plastic containers or plastic wrap to microwave your food. You can use a glass bowl and a wet paper towel to cover your food while it is heating. By using a glass bowl there is no risk of chemicals leaching out of it or the bowl melting. By using a wet paper towel the paper towel will not catch on fire. Nor will it cause hazardous chemicals to fall into your food since paper towels are typically made of all natural materials.This article puts to rest some weird wives tales and rumors about microwave plastic. You have been informed on how to choose a microwave safe container. You know now about how Congress is protecting consumers from plastic exposure. You also know about the danger of plastic wrap and food. Finally, options were provided so you do not have to use plastic wrap and plastic and containers.Before microwaving food, be sure to vent the container: Leave the lid ajar, or lift the edge of the cover.

In Sewing
Easy Crafting: Using Plastic Needlepoint Canvas
Needlepoint can be an artistic way to create items like framed pictures, scarves, and place mats. If you aren't comfortable using regular canvas or plain canvas doesn't suit y…our needs, you can use plastic needlepoint canvas. The basic technique you use is the same as with regular canvas; in fact, it's simper to sew on plastic canvas as the holes are bigger. Read on for more information on plastic needlepoint canvas.The main reason why you'd want to reach for a piece of plastic needlepoint canvas is that its stiffness allows you to create 3D projects. It gives extra support to your design that contributes to the shape and durability of the design. You also can cut it into any shape you like. If you are new to needlepoint, having the clear grid created by the plastic threads can make it easier to get the hang of new stitches and to perfect technique, which is why needlepoint kits for kids include plastic needlepoint canvas.The pros of using plastic needlework canvas usually outweigh the cons. Even so, you may not like working with it because the plastic mesh is not compatible with many solvents. It can melt in the dryer or even in very hot water, so you will need to wash your projects by hand. If any part of the grid severely bends or snaps, it's difficult to repair your work. The fact that you can't really bend the canvas also can create challenges in storage.There are four main sizes for this product. The first size or "mesh" is 5, which means it has five holes per inch. The next mesh, 7, is the most popular. You also can buy canvas with a mesh of 10 or 14. Aside from mesh size, you can choose from different colors. With a clear plastic canvas, you don't have to worry about color showing through your design. With a colored one, the shade of the plastic actually can become part of your design if you want, which adds interest and reduces how much you actually need to stitch. The canvasses also vary in stiffness from firm to more flexible.Plastic canvas needlework does not use a regular sewing needle. Instead, it uses a round or blunt-edge needle called a tapestry needle. A higher number needle is smaller. Although the type and thickness of your thread or yarn matters, in general, you use a #16 needle for meshes of 5 and 7, a #20 needle for 10 mesh, and a #24 needle for 14 mesh. You also use yarn or thread, though worsted weight yarn is most common. You can also use metallic braid, embroidery thread, or Persian wool yarn.Plastic needlework canvas is an alternative to regular needlework canvas that can be good for beginners to use. It is also suitable for 3D projects, and it gives your project a little more durability. If you opt to use it, you must be prepared to wash your creations by hand. You can buy this canvas in different colors, degrees of stiffness, and mesh sizes, depending on what you want to do. You'll need to use a tapestry needle for these projects instead of a regular one, and although you can really use any yarn or thread you want, worsted weight yarn is used most often.Don't be fooled by the mesh. Though it looks stronger than regular canvas, you don't want to increase your tension too much, as you will cause the mesh to bend and look warped, leaving space showing between rows. Wrap your yarn gently but securely around the mesh. (MORE)

A General Overview on the History and Evolution of Plastic Surgery in America
Plastic surgery has existed for centuries, with the earliest origins traced back to ancient Egypt and India. The Egyptians surgically modified corpses after death, so they rem…ained recognizable in the afterlife. Doctors in India began using techniques such as skin grafts to repair damage to patients from battle or from criminal punishments. The history of plastic surgery in the United States begins mostly with Dr. John Peter Mettauer, who designed his own tools and started using them for surgical repairs.Dr, Mettauer was born in Virginia in 1787. He obtained his medical degree in 1809 and performed the first cleft palate operation in North America in 1827. Ten years later, Dr. Mettauer formed his own medical school and started training others in his surgical procedures, including his own sons. Mettauer also performed corrective vaginal procedures to repair defects. His experience and teachings greatly influenced the history and development of plastic surgery in the country.World War I was very influential in the development and evolution of plastic surgery techniques. Soldiers' injuries on the battlefield required surgeons to create new methods of treatment for them. Bullets and bombs disfigured many war veterans, and surgeries quickly evolved to help them regain some semblance of their former appearance. As these procedures developed, the value of using them for purely aesthetic improvements became clear.Plastic surgery still had no real regulation after the war, and many people suffered from faulty surgeries that resulted in deformation and infection. A group of surgeons got together to form an organization designed to create safe guidelines and procedures for the industry. Thus began the American Association of Plastic Surgeons. The group reduced the number of "quack" doctors performing plastic surgery without experience or licensing. They also promoted plastic surgery as a safe and useful surgical option.Today, breast augmentation, liposuction, Botox and rhinoplasty are all common plastic surgery procedures used for cosmetic purposes. Doctors use breast implants for woman who have to have their breasts removed due to cancer or other medical conditions. The technology and techniques used in plastic surgery have come a long way since ancient Egyptian times.The history of plastic surgery involves a lot of trial and error, but modern techniques are time-tested and safer than they were in the past. History shows that doctors and surgeons are likely to continue advancement in the field of plastic surgery with updated procedures and technologies that make recovery time faster. As understanding of human physiology increases, so does the knowledge required to improve upon it.The term "plastic surgery" derives from the word "plastikos," which is Greek for the verb "mold" or "to give form." The word "plastic" is not referring to anything artificial, as is commonly believed. (MORE)

Sorting, Recycling and Reusing: Safe Practices With Plastic
Plastic recycling is important to environmental health and is encouraged in many areas. However, most people do not realize that there are typically rules, regulations and pre…ferred practices that should be remembered when recycling plastic. Once you understand the procedures and safe practices that go along with sorting, recycling and reusing plastics, it is second nature to take care of these materials.Resist the urge to simply throw a piece of plastic in the recycling bin without proper preparation. Sort out different kinds of plastics, rinse out bottles and remove labels. This makes work in the recycling plant move much quicker and more efficiently since the plant receives plastics already prepped for processing. For plastic bottles, remove the air from the bottles before putting them in the bin.While many plastics are safe for reuse, such as Tupperware containers or plasticware made specifically for food, some bottles are known to leech chemicals into the liquid contained within after repeated use. Do your research before repurposing a bottle as a water bottle to make sure there is no risk. Avoid using bottles meant for one use for an extended period of refilling.Each local recycling plant has sets of rules, procedures and regulations. Call with questions or request a list of rules to ensure you properly sort and send in your plastics for recycling. Knowledge of and adherence to any rules make the procedures at the plant move more smoothly and efficiently. For example, some recycling plants prefer different numbers of plastics to be separated, while some happily take unsorted plastics.It is tempting to dump all of your plastics into a bin and put off preparation until later. Instead, prepare each piece of plastic as you come across it. While this takes an extra minute or two in the moment, it saves you time on recycling day and removes the stress of preparing a large load of plastics at one time. Make it a habit to prepare items immediately.Recycling plastic is a simple way to help out the environment and reduce the amount of plastics created. Learn the practices for recycling in your area, properly sort your plastics and reuse when possible.Clip any plastic rings before putting them in the recycling bin. Although these recycled rings are less likely to be found by wildlife than those put in the regular trash, it is still possible. It is easy for animals to get rings caught around body parts, causing pain, discomfort or death. (MORE)

Lifetime Plastic Wheelbarrow Review
If you are looking for a solid, well-built plastic wheelbarrow, then you want to take a careful look at the Lifetime Plastic Wheelbarrow. It is durable, and can make even heav…y loads seem light. There are a few drawbacks about this particular wheelbarrow that any discerning consumer should consider prior to purchasing the Lifetime Plastic Wheelbarrow.The Lifetime Plastic Wheelbarrow's tub is made of 100 percent recycled material. It has the ability to carry up to 550 pounds, meaning you will be able to fill it with soil, gardening tools, weeds, and many other things with ease. The wheelbarrow has powder-coated steel rims (that come with steel bearings) to help give it added durability. You can use the wheelbarrow a lot without having to worry about it falling apart on you.In addition, the wheelbarrow has built-in side slots. You can place braces in these, which helps build up sides for the wheelbarrow, decreasing the chances of anything falling out of it. The front tub of the wheelbarrow is tapered, which makes it easier to dump things out of it. It has a wide wheel base and a low center of gravity to help lessen the strain on you while lifting and pushing the wheelbarrow.Customer reaction to the Lifetime Plastic Wheelbarrow has been overall positive.

Union guy is like, "I could use some more rice in my diet."
Oh, and also…."something something eating sushi."
Wow. Looking good.
All I want for Christmas…. is Lucy Liu.
I agree; She is so Beautiful and Sexy, Still!
I think I would do anything she asked off me
I'm not going to say she looks amazing for a woman her age, because she just looks fucking amazing.
I hope she's nice. You know how some chicks look fantastic, then you realize their a total bitch and now you don't think they're very attractive any more? I really hope Lucy Liu is a really nice chick and everyone likes her…it would just really disappoint me otherwise.
anyone ever heard if she's nice? I hope she's nice.
This woman is simply flawless and absolutely beautiful. So of course, I got nuthin'…
I have something: No matter how gorgeous she is, she will never be Watson. That's all.
She makes a great Watson. That show is awesome.
The ONE thing that really gets stuck in my craw about the show is a guy named Sherlock Holmes is running around NYC with his associate Dr Watson…and NOBODY ever says "well that's weird".
"Hey baby, I got an '98 Honda and nothing to do all day, if you're interested."
My Wang just went Schwing.
What? What'd I say?
Seen her filming around NYC. She looks even better in person.
My god. She's perfect. One of the sexiest women in the world. For comparison, look at Cameron Diaz or Drew Barrymore right now.
I'd rather not, but I get what you're saying.
You cant compare her to the other charlies angels, Cameron Diaz and Drew Barrymore are white and white sure does crack.
I love her, still damn gorgeous.
She has always been smokin' hot.
Wow…Just Wow!
Born in 1968. Asian women apparently know the location of the Fountain of Youth, because Lucy Liu hasn't aged a day since she turned 20. GOT DAYUM this woman is beautiful.
Bill Murray was wrong. Her ass can act.
I just love her to death. She is another one that is both beautiful and cute.
Whoa … she looks sensational
mmmm hmmmmmm


text: I was playing with a 2D model with point particles and gravitational attraction. To avoid particles going off to infinity, I thought I might turn the 2D space into a topological torus: connect x=L = x=0 and y=L to y=0. But now a problem occurs: What is the distance between 2 points? Because of the periodic boundary, you get for the distance (s): s^2 = (x2-x1+i*L)^2 + (y2-y1+j*L)^2 You could set i = j = 0, but that would destroy translation symmetry, it would make the coordinates at 0 and L physically different from other points. So there are a multitude of distances, a grid of them described by the integers (i,j). But that does seem a bit weird. Any comments on this? Gerard

LONDON (AP) _ Britain for the first time has published a list of people barred from entering the country for what the government says is fostering extremism or hatred.
The list includes popular American talk-radio host Michael Savage, who has called the Muslim holy book, the Quran, a "book of hate.'' Savage also has enraged parents of children with autism by saying in most cases it's "a brat who hasn't been told to cut the act out.''
The list includes Americans Stephen "Don'' Black, founder of a Florida-based white supremacist Web site, and anti-gay preacher Fred Phelps, who leads a church in Topeka.
Hamas parliament member Yunis Al-Astal and Egyptian cleric Safwat el-Higazi also are on the banned list.

Optimal Post-Harvest Grains Storage By Risk Averse Farmers
Most previous research on post-harvest grain storage by farmers has assumed risk-neutral behavior and/or made restrictive assumptions about underlying price probability distributions. In this study we solve the optimal post-harvest storage problem for a risk averse farmer under more general assumptions about underlying price distributions. The resulting model is applied to Michigan corn farmers and results show that, contrary to the sell all-or-nothing risk-neutral rule, risk averse farmers will spread sales out over the storage season. The optimal pattern for sales by Michigan corn farmers is to sell approximately 50% of corn at harvest in November (a risk-reduction strategy) and approximately 40% in May (a return-enhancing strategy).

Eagles' Jason Babin blossoms under defensive line coach Jim Washburn
September 18, 2011
By Bob Ford, Inquirer Columnist
It could be the Eagles front office was a little preoccupied in late March 2010, just days from finalizing the trade that would send quarterback Donovan McNabb to Washington and signal the beginning of the 1,000-year reign of Kevin Kolb. Distracted or not, the Eagles passed on the chance to match a contract offer made by Tennessee to free-agent defensive end Jason Babin. Based on the length of his career, Babin should have been eligible for unrestricted free agency, but the Eagles had gone to the trouble of getting a first-refusal clause when they signed the journeyman for the 2009 season.
Rich Hofmann: Eagles' line is all that matters to Jim Washburn
June 1, 2012
Rich Hofmann
JIM WASHBURN WAS telling a story the other day, a story about himself, laced with equal parts down-home, self-deprecation and what-the-hell. It is what the Eagles' defensive line coach does. It was a story from back in 1999, when Washburn was interviewing for a defensive line coach job with Jeff Fisher, then the coach of the Tennessee Titans. "It was me and him and Gregg Williams – ooh, I shouldn't have said that," Washburn said, smiling. Williams, of course, is the man who was banished by the NFL for running a bounty program in New Orleans.
Clearing the record
October 12, 2012
A comment made by Eagles defensive line coach Jim Washburn was incorrectly reported in Tuesday's Sports section. About his defensive line, Washburn said: "I'd be crushed. Hell, I'd quit if we're not a whole lot better. They need to fire [me] if we're not better. "
Jason Babin: Eagles have a 'socialistic system'
December 28, 2012
By Zach Berman, Inquirer Staff Writer
Jason Babin continues to jab the Eagles from afar, and this time his comments were directed toward the organization's view of him and ousted defensive line coach Jim Washburn. The Eagles signed Babin to a five-year, $28 million contract in 2011 and waived him Nov. 27, citing the desire to play younger players. On Wednesday he praised the Jacksonville Jaguars, who claimed him off waivers, and implied that the Eagles thought no one wanted him. "That was probably their approach because they don't have amicable splits with people," Babin said during a conference call with Tennessee reporters.
Eagles draft Fletcher Cox
April 26, 2012
By Jeff McLane, INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
The Eagles got their man. They got their fans', too. Trading up to the 12th spot, the Eagles drafted Mississippi State defensive tackle Fletcher Cox. To get Cox the Eagles dealt to the Seahawks Seattle a fourth round pick (114 overall) and a sixth round pick (172). The 6-foot-4, 294-pound Cox will join the Eagles' rotation of defensive tackles in the middle of Jim Washburn's line. He's a fierce pass rusher and could be the impact player coach Andy Reid is looking for on defense.
Les Bowen: Brasher, bolder D-line
December 16, 2012
Andy Reid said Friday it was "hindsight" to suggest he could have fixed his defense earlier, and maybe saved the Eagles' season, by firing defensive-line coach Jim Washburn and scuttling the wide-nine before he eventually did so, on Dec. 3. Reid didn't say it was "wrong. " He just said it was "hindsight. " Then Reid talked about how, with the defensive line in a normal formation, and the linemen not blindly making a beeline for the quarterback, life is much easier for the safeties and even the corners.
With full offseason, Philadelphia Eagles defensive coordinator Castillo focuses on good start
May 30, 2012
By Jeff McLane, INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
If the Eagles' defensive coaching staff were a rock band, Juan Castillo would be the front man who doesn't mind sharing the spotlight with his band mates. "He's got really pure motives. I've worked with guys that have wanted to get ahead and become head coaches, and they're all about them," Eagles defensive line coach Jim Washburn said. "I don't think he wants to put his mark on anything, and that's a good quality to have because a lot of guys are so, 'If I don't do it this way, and if I don't make a big-enough splash being this blitz guru, this guru, I'm never going to get my chance at a head job.' " Despite a first season for Castillo as defensive coordinator that was more Herman's Hermits than Rolling Stones, Eagles coach Andy Reid decided to bring him back with his band minus one piece.
Eagles Notebook: Reid: Feuding coaches resolve spat
November 30, 2011
BY LES BOWEN, email@example.com
ANDY REID said yesterday he has spoken with defensive-line coach Jim Washburn and offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg about their sideline spat Sunday, and Reid is satisfied that the matter is resolved. "Things happen. It's an emotional game. It doesn't matter if you're coaches or players, things happen, so you take care of business like grown men. They've talked, I've talked, they've worked it out and we're fine here," Reid said in the head coach's first session with reporters since news of the dustup surfaced Sunday evening.
Inside the Eagles: Roseman played a role in hiring Washburn, sources say
December 4, 2012
Andy Reid's decision to fire Jim Washburn was viewed as the Eagles coach owning up to his mistake in hiring the defensive line coach in the first place. While Reid made the ultimate decision - he does have final say on all football matters - general manager Howie Roseman played an important role in the Eagles signing Washburn away from the Tennessee Titans in January 2011. It was Roseman who first brought the idea to Reid's attention and then pushed for him to hire Washburn and bring his controversial wide-nine defensive scheme to the Eagles, two NFL sources said.
Expect the DeSean drama to continue
December 1, 2011
By Jeff McLane and Jonathan Tamari, INQUIRER STAFF WRITERS
Here are some things to look for when the Eagles visit the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday: DeSean Drama, Part IV Two weeks ago, he was benched for missing a team meeting. Then he put on an explosive show against the Giants (but not without drawing an absurd 50-yard penalty). Then he shrank against the Patriots. What does Jackson have in store this week? Whatever it is, it's a safe bet we'll all be talking about it Friday. Watch out! For a backup quarterback, the Eagles could do a lot worse than Vince Young (ask Bears fans about that)

Eagles' Brandon Graham counsels Marcus Smith on playing better
June 10, 2015
BY ED BARKOWITZ, JOHN SMALLWOOD and LES BOWEN, Daily News Staff Writers email@example.com
BRANDON GRAHAM'S advice to Marcus Smith is simple. "I told him to stay off social media," Graham said yesterday after an Eagles OTA session. "That B-word hurts. " The "B-word" is "bust," as in first-round bust, the label Graham was careening toward his first three seasons after the Eagles moved up to draft him 13th overall in 2010. The heat was turned on when Graham had to miss most of 2011 with a knee injury, and also every time Seattle safety Earl Thomas made another huge play.
Far from a bust, Brandon Graham emerges
June 10, 2015
By Mike Sielski, Inquirer Columnist
To begin his transformation into an every-down linebacker, Brandon Graham met with his new position coach before the 2013 season and found something that had eluded him through his first three years in the NFL: support. Bill McGovern, the Eagles' outside linebackers coach, had watched film of Graham and determined that there was something more to him than just another defensive end who liked to chase quarterbacks. In the 3-4 scheme that Chip Kelly preferred, Graham would be a better fit as a linebacker.
Eagles' Graham is out to prove doubters wrong
December 4, 2014
By Zach Berman, Inquirer Staff Writer
Two years ago, Brandon Graham dreaded the questions. Graham knew that when the Eagles played the Seattle Seahawks and safety Earl Thomas, he would hear questions about whether he was a draft bust. Graham, the Eagles' first-round pick in 2010, still hears from fans who wish the team selected Thomas when they traded up to the No. 13 overall pick. Considering that Thomas is a three-time all-pro and Graham has 17 career sacks, that is a reasonable opinion. But Graham has started to shed the bust label this season.
Cox scores points with huge effort for Eagles
September 11, 2014
By Marcus Hayes, Daily News Staff Writer
JUST WAIT until next time. Fletcher Cox promised that, when he next scores a touchdown off a turnover, fans will witness 300 pounds of acrobatic, gyrating, choreographed joy. "It's like, once in a lifetime for a d-lineman to get a fumble and have the open field and the end zone is right there," Cox said. Cox didn't dare celebrate too much after his 17-yard touchdown romp iced Sunday's season-opening win against Jacksonville. For one thing, he feared that a celebration would further tire him, and he expected to have to return to action immediately.
Eagles' Cox redefining himself
August 21, 2014
BY LES BOWEN, Daily News Staff Writer email@example.com
A FEW YEARS AGO, the Eagles employed a defensive-line coach who was concerned with sacking the opposing quarterback, and not much else. Jerry Azzinaro would be the polar opposite of that. It's very unlikely that the Birds' current d-line coach and Jim Washburn ever have a drink together when NFL folk gather, at the Scouting Combine or the Senior Bowl. "I expect to win the Super Bowl," Azzinaro, who also carries the title of assistant head coach, said yesterday, when asked if he expects certain sack numbers from Fletcher Cox, now that the 12th overall pick in the 2012 draft is a two-gapping 3-4 end. "I think if the correlation of sack numbers equaled Super Bowl, I think everyone would take their guys and put 'em in the widest . " Actually, coach, we tried that here . . . "I have no comment on that," Azzinaro said, shaking his head.
Eagles' Vick is red hot, and Redskins' Griffin is definitely not
September 11, 2013

Here are some observations and ruminations about Monday night's Eagles-Redskins game: LANDOVER, Md. - Robert Griffin III was obviously rusty in his first game since injuring his knee in January. The Redskins star quarterback never got into a rhythm early Monday night against the Eagles but seemed to find his game in the late going. Griffin was also not much of a threat to run and entered halftime with just two carries for 2 yards. Credit goes to the Eagles defense, which presented Griffin with different looks and put pressure on the quarterback.
Eagles' defense has a lot of work to do
August 12, 2013
By Paul Domowitch, Daily News Columnist
SO, YOU THOUGHT the Eagles' defense had no place to go but up this year, huh? You thought they hit rock bottom during the 2012 Juan Castillo/Todd Bowles debacle when they finished tied for 29th in the league in points allowed, 23rd against the run, 32nd in takeaways, 26th in third-down efficiency and 32nd in opponent passer rating. Think again. After spending the previous 2 days getting worked over by Tom Brady and the Patriots offense over at the NovaCare Complex, Bill Davis' new-and-not-so-improved defense moved over to Lincoln Financial Field last night, hoping a change of scenery might help them.
Eagles Notes: Eagles add running back from Cardinals
July 26, 2013
By Zach Berman and Jeff McLane, Inquirer Staff Writers
The Eagles made the first of what will likely be a number of training camp roster moves on Wednesday by claiming running back William Powell off waivers from the Arizona Cardinals. The team released wide receiver Nick Miller to make room. "Preseason last year, we saw him, he was quick, tough, had good hands, got a lot of work," general manager Howie Roseman said. "This was a guy we thought could bring competition. " Powell, 25, is 5-foot-9 and 207 pounds. In 13 games for the Cardinals last season, including one start, he totaled 217 yards on 60 carries.
Azzinaro is more than just defensive line coach for Eagles
May 29, 2013
By Jeff McLane, INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
Even above the din of a throbbing bass line, Jerry Azzinaro's Brooklyn bark carries its way across the practice fields at the NovaCare Complex. The yells aren't as unrelenting as Jim Washburn's profanity-laced tirades, but the new Eagles defensive line coach is the only one of Chip Kelly's assistants who brings an old-school punch to Eagles practices. However, Azzinaro, the lone assistant Kelly brought with him from Oregon, is not a relic. His voice extends beyond his group of defensive linemen.
Analyzing the Eagles defensive line
May 23, 2013
By Zach Berman, Inquirer Staff Writer
Part Six of an online-only series. Here is a look at the defensive linemen on the Eagles roster: Projected starters DE: Fletcher Cox (6-4, 300), 22, 2nd season; Cedric Thornton (6-4, 309), 24, 2nd season The Eagles are counting on Cox, the 2012 first-round pick, to become a blue-chip player in the Eagles new defense. He showed flashes of stardom last year, including 4 1/2 of his 5 1/2 sacks after joining the starting lineup seven games into the season.

On page 222 in View Camera Technique, Leslie Stroebel, 7th Edition, Focal Press, the author recommends focusing, and then increasing the lens-to-film distance by 1/400th to correct the focus for infrared film.
This might be difficult to implement on some cameras. It can be done more easily for finite subject distances by working with the subject distance instead of the image distance.
s = lens-to-subject distance
f = focal length of lens
Then the corrected infrared subject distance is
s' = 401sf/(s + 400f)
Example: s = 3 meters = 3000mm and f =75mm
s' = 401*3000mm*75mm/(3000mm + 400*75mm) = 2734mm
For several distances we get the following combinations:
s = 1.5 meters, f = 75mm, s' = 1432mm
s = 1.75 meters, f = 75mm, s' = 1658mm
s = 2 meters, f = 75mm, s' = 1880mm
s = 2.5 meters, f = 75mm, s' = 2313mm
s = 3 meters, f = 75mm, s' = 2734mm
s = 3.5 meters, f = 75mm, s' = 3142mm
With no infrared film to test this, I cannot confirm its usefulness. The above formula is equivalent to Mr. Stroebel's infrared focus-correction recipe.

Want to see R. Kelly's video? No, not that video — the mini-movie he's shooting for his "Trapped in the Closet" series. It's going to be available as a bonus DVD with his upcoming album, TP-3: Reloaded.
"Trapped in the Closet" is a song in five chapters, the first two of which have already been released to radio. Together, they portray a domestic drama that became a 16-minute short film, which Kelly shot in high definition (see "R. Kelly Ditches Kitchen Sex, Gets Trapped In 'The Closet' " ). His reps call "Closet" a male version of "Desperate Housewives," describing it as full of suspense and mystery, with unexpected twists and turns. The first part of the film will air on BET's "Access Granted" on May 25.
Kelly's been in Miami shooting a video for another song on the album: "Playa's Only" (featuring the Game), which hits radio Thursday. Meanwhile, his Chicago defense team represented him in court on Wednesday to argue their previously filed motions to exclude evidence in his upcoming child-pornography trial. The defense calls the identification procedure used by the prosecution to try to match him to the sex tape "suggestive" and seeks to throw that out.
His lawyers also want to exclude the findings of the prosecution's expert forensic pediatrician, the University of North Carolina's Dr. Sharon Cooper, who specializes in developmental pediatrics and determined that the girl on the sex tape was underage (see "Hearing To Determine Age Of Girl In Alleged R. Kelly Sex Tape" ).
However, Kelly lawyer Ed Genson made little headway in revisiting this argument before Judge Vincent Gaughan called both prosecution and defense teams into chambers, only to later emerge and announce that they would continue the hearing on June 1.

Star Trek Vanguard- to read or not to read?
View Single Post
January 13 2012, 05:56 PM
Location: Nashville, TN
Re: Star Trek Vanguard- to read or not to read?
made me appreciate the "TOS-Era" as something more viable and worthwhile, not just a holdover from the stylings of the 60's, before the Movie-Era came in and made me love the original series characters.
I grew up on TNG & Matured on DS9, so the movies were always kind of like watching the result of a past I was never that familiar with. To this day I've yet to see most of Star Trek: The Original Series and I'd never really had a desire to, but then
came along and made me want to.
If Trek ever comes back to Television, it should use this series as the template.
It's just that fucking good.
