Gary Waddock will chase out-of-contract players
David Pritchard, Chief Sports Reporter covering Oxford United. Follow us on twitter: @oxfordmailoufc. Call me on 01865 425458 / / U's News
Oxford United's summer targets are all likely to be free agents, with Gary Waddock confident there is enough quality among the pool of players out of contract to improve the squad.
The close season is now into its fourth week, but the U's have yet to complete a signing.
Room in the first-team squad has been freed up by releasing Deane Smalley, Sean Rigg and Scott Davies, along with loanees Ryan Williams, Nicky Wroe and David Connolly.
James Constable has followed them out of the exit door after turning down a new contract, while Tom Newey continues to consider his options.
While three players have been promoted from the youth team, Waddock is also looking elsewhere to bolster the ranks.
But the head coach, like many in Sky Bet League Two, will use the resources at his disposal on wages, rather than fees.
He said: "There are a lot of good players out there who are going to be out of contract.
"We will be able to pick up a couple of them, I'm sure.
"There's no right and wrong way to do it, you've just got to get a group of players who are committed and determined to be successful.
"We were close this year, we need to get a little bit closer next year."

WFFT's Brooke Welch spoke with experts about how you can put your "green thumb" to work this growing season.
Flowers, vegetables, and fruits mean planting season is right around the corner or is it already here?
"For instance, you can plant pansies right now. You can plant cyclamen, and we have some other items like snap dragons. They are all cold crop plants."
Plant Center Inc. General Manager Brian miller says cold crop plants can withstand temperatures of 25 degrees but for many veggies, fruits, and flowers like impatiens, you'll want to wait a little bit longer to break ground.
"You just have to be careful with the frost because we still could get frost at night, and you'll have to cover the plants, if that's the case. We normally don't recommend to start planting until the first of May."
Until planting season begins, there are things you can do to start getting ready.
"Once it dries up a little bit you can start tilling up your garden, maybe work some topsoil into the top couple of layers. Just to give the top couple of layers some added freshness. More nutrients for the flowers when you start to plant them."
Also, you can do things now to keep weeds at a minimum this summer.
"The best way to get rid of weeds, is to prevent the weeds. To do that before you put a fresh layer of mulch down for the spring, you want to use a pre-emergent."
If you follow these tips, your gardening should be a success this spring and summer.

Tackling the Illicit Small Arms Trade: The Chairman Speaks
Cekuolis, Dalius, Arms Control Today
When I was nominated in December 2007 as the chair-designate of the third biennial meeting of states (BMS3),1 my team and I immediately focused on the task of ensuring a successful outcome. This, of course, is the duty of any meeting chair; but in this case, the need for success was acute.
The first two biennial meetings held to consider the implementation of the Program of Action to Prevent, Combat and Eradicate the Illicit Trade in Small Arms and Light Weapons in All Its Aspects (PoA) in 2003 and 2005 had been criticized for their lack of tangible results, specifically the absence of an agreed outcome. The 2006 Review Conference for the program had ended, amidst some acrimony, with no substantive agreement of any kind.
Small arms and light weapons are the instruments of choice in crime and conflict, undermining security, human rights, and social and economic development worldwide.2 It is estimated that armed violence kills more than 740,000 people each year, both directly and indirectly, with approximately two-thirds of these deaths occurring outside war zones. The annual economic costs of armed violence in nonconflict settings (lost productivity due to violent deaths) approaches $100 billion, on a conservative estimate, but could be much higher. In addition to these statistics, one must take account of the costs inflicted on people, societies, and economies as a result of the (often permanent) injuries stemming from armed violence. Although the effects are not evenly distributed, with some regions suffering much more than others, every country is affected to some degree.3
The PoA provided the first global framework for tackling the small arms problem, committing all states to some essential initial steps designed, above all, to curb the supply of illicit small arms and light weapons. Along with certain regional initiatives, it also appears to have encouraged many states to become more transparent in reporting on their small arms exports. Following the 2006 Review Conference impasse, however, there was a risk that the PoA would cease to be taken seriously. The United Nations had established separate processes on illicit brokering, international arms transfers (the Arms Trade Treaty), and surplus ammunition, but a question mark hung over the broader framework. The third biennial meeting, scheduled for July 14-18 at UN headquarters in New York, was not supposed to be a make-or-break event; but in our assessment, another diplomatic stalemate or even an exceptionally weak agreed outcome would have undermined the PoA and slowed or halted global momentum on the small arms issue.
That view was shared by many others. From the beginning of our preparations, we sensed very strong backing from all stakeholders to get the UN small arms process "back on track" with a successful BMS3. Our sense was that unequivocal success required some form of agreed outcome that, along with the meeting discussions, would help to enhance and accelerate the PoA's implementation, not amend it. Another priority for many states was to restore consensus on the process. The PoA itself was adopted in 2001 by consensus, and that was also true of the UN resolutions and meetings devoted to small arms during the following period.
Consensus began to fray, however, in 2005 and 2006 as the UN General Assembly committee that considers arms control and disarmament matters (the First Committee on Disarmament and International Security) registered the first abstentions and negative votes on certain small arms resolutions and decisions. In 2006 and again in 2007, the United States-alone-voted against the UN General Assembly's omnibus resolution on small arms because of its opposition to the convening of a third biennial meeting. The question as to whether the United States would participate, in some form, in the BMS3 was the subject of much speculation during the months preceding the meeting. The possibility, even likelihood, that the United States would not participate was certainly a concern. …

My husband Aaron and I have lived in sunny Florida for almost five years. We love traveling and good food, especially when we get good recommendations from locals "in the know". We love all sorts of traveling, from roadtrips across the U.S. to whirlwind tours of England and China to foodie vacations in Spain. And, as you can tell from the profile picture, we're Harry Potter geeks (well, I am and my husband is a good sport about it). We're pretty flexible when it comes to hosting...we can take you around town and show you all our favorite restaurants and beaches, or leave you alone and let you do your thing.

April 16, 1986
Mr. Karl Spilhaus
Northern Textile Association
211 Congress Street
Boston, Massachusetts 02110
Dear Mr. Spilhaus:
This is an update to our response of March 5 to your letter of February 4, concerning braided and woven elastic fabrics.
We wish to thank you for the videotape Mr. Stig Bolgen of your Association sent demonstrating two different types of looms producing narrow fabrics. After having reviewed the tape, we now provide the clarification you requested.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is unaware of any reason why the dust from unwashed cotton yarn used in weaving operations in the elastic fabric industry would be any different from the dust from unwashed cotton yarn used in other weaving operations. Also, the Agency is unaware of any reason why the dust from unwashed cotton used in braiding operations would be any different from dust from unwashed cotton used in weaving. If, as you believe, there is less cotton-dust-related occupational disease associated with weaving and braiding in the elastic fabric industry, OSHA must assume that it is due to the lower levels of cotton dust exposure that you noted to exist.
OSHA concludes that the cotton dust standard, 29 CFR 1910.1043, applies to elastic fabric industry weaving and braiding operations using any unwashed cotton yarn. Exemptions apply, however, if washed cotton only is used. We refer you to 29 CFR 1910.1043(n) of the standard for details. Also, please observe that if exposures are below the 375 microgram per cubic meter action level for slashing and weaving given at 29 CFR 1910.1043(c)(2)(iii) of the standard, only a few provisions of the standard will pertain.
I appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns. Please do not hesitate to contact me again if you have further questions.
Patrick R. Tyson
Acting Assistant Secretary

Welcome to Versatek
You have no items in your shopping cart.
The HPOE-460 a quality 4-Port Gigabit High Power PoE injector Hub that complies with IEEE 802.3af and High Power IEEE 802.3at PoE standards. Each port in this unit combines up to 30 Watts of power output and data over a single CAT 5/5e/6 Ethernet cable. This injector hub was crafted to meet the demands of network powered devices that require higher power, such as multi-channel (802.11a/b/g/n) wireless LAN access points, PTZ (Pan, Tilt & Zoom) or Speed Dome IP cameras, and other network devices that utilize SOHO and SMB network applications.
Each device can recieve up to 30 watts of input power due to the defined IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet pre-standard. This amount is double the power compared to the standard 802.3af PoE PSE. The IEEE 802.3at PoE pre-standard is ideal to meet the demand for high power through the RJ-45 Port interface. The HPOE-460 is compliant with IEEE 802.3at and offers a stronger power capability than the existing 802.3af PoE PSE.
The HPOE-460 features 4 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet ports that support 52V DC power for remote 802.3af / 802.3at powered devices (PD). This unit does not affect the transmission of data. This unit supports a 120 watt PoE power budget, and offers 15.4 / 30.8 Watts PoE power for up to 4 remote PD devices. This unit is a money saving and time saving solution to upgrade existing networks to the IEEE 802.3af / IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet system. With this unit, you do not need to replace your existing Ethernet Switch. The unit features 8 RJ-45 STP ports--the 4 ports on the riight operate function as "Data input" and the ports on the left function as "PoE (Data and Power) output". The 4 "PoE (Data and Power) output" ports also serve as power injectors that transmit DC voltage to the CAT. 5/5e/6 cable. These ports also transmit data and power at the same time between the Injectors and Splitters.
The HPOE-460 offers a simple way to power Ethernet devices in difficult to reach places.

Woman killed in US 278 wreck
Published: Thursday, November 1, 2007 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, November 1, 2007 at 10:22 a.m.
A Gadsden woman was killed in a wreck Wednesday in Hokes Bluff and her husband was flown to a Birmingham hospital.
Sharon Gray, 46, died in the wreck about 7:35 a.m. at the intersection of U.S. 278 and Bernard Street, which is the old U.S. 278, Etowah County Coroner Michael Gladden said.
Her husband, Jerald Wayne Gray, 47, was a passenger in the truck, Hokes Bluff Police Chief Mitchell Hill said.
Sharon Gray was driving a 1995 Dodge Dakota pickup when she apparently turned left from U.S. 278 onto Bernard Street, in front of a dump truck hauling gravel, Gladden said.
The bed of the pickup was near the intersection and the truck's cab and the dump truck traveled about 700 feet, Hill said.
Jerald Wayne Gray was flown by helicopter from a field near where the wreck happened to University Hospital in Birmingham, Hill said.
However, a hospital spokes-woman said no one by that name was listed there.
James Richard Ellis of Pisgah was driving the dump truck, owned by Kirkpatrick Concrete in Guntersville. He was transported to Gadsden Regional Medical Center with minor injuries, Hill said.
The Grays were affiliated with Anchor of Hope ministry in Hokes Bluff and apparently were on their way there.
Wayne Gray was the pastor. The ministry also operated a thrift store the Grays were affiliated with, the Rev. Mike Hooks said.
Hooks said he has known the Grays for many years through various ministries they were involved in.
"They're very benevolent people, very giving," Hooks said. "This is a real tragedy."

Have you heard what Jason LaCanfora said tonight on "NFL Total Access"? According to him, "The Bears are reportedly focusing their preparation for this week's game on WR Michael Crabtree. They mentioned about how strong his hands are, they view Crabtree as a #1 WR, and compare him to former Dallas Cowboys WR Michael Irvin."

Thread: Matt Turk And Punt Coverage
-08-25-2006 #31bigredman Guest
Re: Matt Turk And Punt Coverage
ROFL....really.....ROFL. Norv Turner mentions that his kicker is kicking 60 yards on their own 20 all the way to the other team's 15 or 10 yard line which is a "challenge" for the coverage guys. DAAAAAAHHHHHHHH. The reassessment he speaks of, how do you equate that to reducing the kick length? That's not what he is eluding to. But I disagree with him regarding the minute you ask guys like Turk to start aiming for the sidelines is when you get those awful shanks and short punts. Listen, I'll slow it down for you. On kick offs. Is there anyone near the player receiving the ball? NO. Now, you two seem to feel that there has to be someone within 5 yards of the receiver on punts, otherwise, well that kicker is just screwing everything up by kicking it so damn far. The problem isn't the speed of the coverage team. As I stated before, the second stringers on the special teams are not that much slower than the starters. It's a matter of technique. Shedding blocks. Penetrating return schemes set up by the other team. Why do you think that teams occasionally blitz a punter? 1. Its risky because the kicking team players can release down the field unimpeded and surround your receiver, and; 2. However, if you get the punter to hurry a punt, then it will be short, shanked, line drived, or ideally blocked.
Punting and kicking to the sidelines to shrink the lanes your coverage team has to cover is risky business, and tells the other team your coverage players suck. More often than not, it doesn't work out favorably for the kicking team.
I just don't understand the mentality that wants a punter who can kick the ball 60 yards with 6 to 7 seconds hang time to shank it shorter and to the left or right rather than get the coverage team to perform better. Like I said, its early guys. The coverage team hasn't had a lot of practice given the circumstances. LET TURK KICK. LET TURK KICK. LET TURK KICK.
Now go to your rooms and not another peep out of ye!

Re: Matt Turk And Punt Coverage
Again, I tend to put a decent amount of weight on the opinion of employed NFL coaches. Don't worry, though. Later in this response, I'll provide another source that is accurate enough, considering you cited him in an earlier post of your own.
If you'd have done so, you would have found this:
I love seeing these huge punts, but I would much rather Turk put more hang time under those long distance kicks to allow more time for our unit to get downfield. If that's not possible, then the only other option I see is to have Turk take some distance off the kick so that our unit does not have to travel as far.
Furthermore, I'm quoting you here: "Let's not exaggerate here buddy." Now I'm going to make the same request of you. From my own viewing and analysis of the Texans game, I saw no punt from Matt Turk with a 6-7 second hang time you claim he's achieving.
Collecting the data myself using a video of the game and a stopwatch as well as taking in multiple reviews of each punt to ensure accurate readings, this is what I found:
-Turk's first punt of the night (50-yards) was fair caught with approximately 5.1 seconds of hangtime.
-The second punt, 50-yards of which Buchanon returned, had a hang time of about 4.9 seconds.
-The third punt, a 59-yarder which Buchanon also brought back, had a hang time of 5.3 seconds. I'd like to point out that when Buchanon fielded this kick, no Ram was within 15 yards of him.
-Turk's final puint of the night was for 57-yards with a hang time of 5.3 seconds, and only two Rams were near the play. Those Rams were Tye Hill (4.34 forty) and Jon Alston (4.4 forty), and I point out their forty times only to show the kind of speed it takes to get downfield in time on a 57-yard punt with a little over five seconds of hang time.
Secondly, the best part of rewatching this game to collect the above info? The very next play after the third punt, the announcer clearly says, and I quote: "...59-yard punt by Matt Turk, so perhaps he did outkick the coverage." I only bring it up since you specifically used comments made by the same announce team about Turk's punting in an earlier response to support your case. Now, I can clearly do the same to support mine.
Again though, the point is not once did I count 6-7 seconds worth of hangtime that you claim our mentality is not satisified with. On the contrary, six to seven seconds would be amazing on a near 60-yard punt, and would certainly allow our coverage unit enough time to get down field on a consistent basis. However, that's not what's happening.
What is in fact happening is that a 57-59 yard kick with a little over five seconds of hang time did not consistently allow our coverage team enough time to get down field, nor is it realistic to field a ten-man coverage team of guys who all run 4.4 forty times.
Which brings me back to the assertion from my previous post, now the third time I've posted it:
I love seeing these huge punts, but I would much rather Turk put more hang time under those long distance kicks to allow more time for our unit to get downfield. If that's not possible, then the only other option I see is to have Turk take some distance off the kick so that our unit does not have to travel as far.
Preferably, I would have Turk increase his hang time on these booming punts. If that's not possible, then I would consider shortening the kick while maintaining high hang times to better our chances of forcing fair catches.
So... understand? Or do I need to slow it down for you?

Re: Matt Turk And Punt Coverage
Now Nick, using my super calibrated, Swiss timing, nuclear infrared tripped timing device with synchronized professional digital video playback....(I love dueling with Nick....the man is a maniac)....I reviewed my earlier post....I misspoke regarding 6 to 7 seconds....no one kicks a 6 to 7 second punts...NO ONE...I meant 5 to 6. The NFL average is 4.5 seconds. I didn't go through the trouble of timing it...I went off a comment made by a broadcaster. However, I feel a sense of pride that I made Nick go back and actually time the damn things. Hang time not withstanding, special teams are much more complicated than the kicker aiming the ball. The coverage scheme (I.E. stunts by the kicking team, the wide outs ability to shed the often double team protect while staying in bounds is the key to successfully corralling the return man, whether the kick is down the middle long, or a shorter ranged angled kick. Personally (and yes Nick, I noticed the shot regarding current NFL coaching opinion must trump my lowly Pop Warner opinion), my experience as a player and coach, kickers are not all that sophisticated to consistently "pinpoint" their kicks, no matter what level. If you can kick to the 1 to 5 yard line on a kick off (55 to 60 yards), and hold the returner under the 20 yard line, then you have a very good coverage team. Same goes with the punt team. Of course, the kick off team doesn't have to defend the kicker, and immediately have someone in their face when the ball is kicked, however, the punt team has the advantage of beating their man quickly without any players falling back to form a wall as they do in kick off either. Turk was kicking pretty consistently at the 4.5+ range with great distance, which is very good. If I were King of the Rams, I wouldn't mess with his kicks, I would kick some special team player's butts (and of course design a brilliant coverage scheme to defeat the other team's blocking). I guess I just have more faith in my ability than you do with the Ram's current special team's coach! (Yes...that's joke guys)
r8rh8rmike....nah....I knew you two wouldn't stay in your rooms...I could hear you giggling the minute I shut the door and started walking down the hall.
As HUbison pointed out....isn't this a wonderful dilemma to be in?

Re: Matt Turk And Punt Coverage
While we're at it, what's the NFL average for punt length? Somehow I doubt it's 57-59 yards.
Placekickers try to kick the ball as close to the goalline as possible without going deep into the endzone. Kick it too short and you're giving the opposition free yards. Kick it too deep and it results in a touchback. The optimal target is the goalline or one yard line.
Yet you're telling me that kickers and punters don't consistently try to pinpoint their kick to a target location or distance? To me, that's probably the most important aspect of kicking!
Adjusting how you kick should be quite easy for a punter since it's a basic part of the position. Adjusting how fast you can go is significantly tougher.
You say you'd kick their butts, but I'm still waiting on the magical solution to make our coverage team move faster as opposed to simply asking the veteran Turk to adjust his kicking.
I'll go to my room again, but I won't be holding my breath waiting for that solution.

Just as they're much more complicated than the kicker just booting it as far as he can.
Really? Kickers and punters aren't sophisticated with their kicks? Punters are required multiple times during the season to kick a punt inside an opponent's 20-yard line optimally without resulting in a touchback. In order to do so, they often have to take some heat off of their kicks to try and get perfect placement. Furthermore, punters directionally kick to the sideline in some scenarios to either limit the field returners have to work with if not kick it completely out of bounds while also trying to maximize distance.

Yet you're telling me that kickers and punters don't consistently try to pinpoint their kick to a target location or distance? To me, that's probably the most important aspect of kicking.
And this would increase their speed how? As I established in my last post, it's much easier to ask one punter to adjust how he kicks rather than ask ten coverage men to adjust how fast they run.

Re: Matt Turk And Punt Coverage
Go back and watch the Texans game. Turk's first punt was a 50-yarder with five seconds of hang time, and our special teams players were able to get down field and were in a positrion to minimize the return had Buchanon not called for the fair catch. That's a perfectly fine distance/hangtime ratio in my book. Ideally, I would even suggest a five second hang time on punts anywhere from 45-50 yards if possible, but that's the hang time I'd shoot for at the 50-yard mark.
But to add 7-9 yards to that same time if not less time and still try to claim it's very good makes absolutely no sense to me. And again, it makes no sense based upon what I saw on the field. Look at his punts that were 57 and 59 yards. He had 5.3 seconds of hang time on both by my timing of them and that certainly wasn't adequate at all for the 59 yarder, let alone "very good" for either. Suggesting that nearly a second less of hang time is still very good on that distance? Sorry, just not buying it.
You know what is very good hang time though? 5.7 seconds, which is what Texans punter Chads Stanley got on a 49-yard punt in the Texans' first preseason game. Now that's some great hang time.
The two options aren't as concretely good and bad as you make them sound. This is a team sport that hinges on team success. Asking a punter to take some heat off of the ball so that the coverage team has a better chance of getting downfield in time is not a lot to ask in my opinion, especially when the goal is to force more fair catches and minimize returns.
The funny thing is it's not even my preferred solution. As I've repeated many many times now, my preferred solution is just to have Turk put more hang time under those long punts.
Since it's now been days of debate with neither of us budging on this issue, I'm simply going to agree to disagree about it. We've both put forth our thoughts on the issue. That's really all we can do.

Asia Regional Capacity-Building Workshop on Traditional Knowledge and Customary Sustainable use under United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity
"If we have to save the biological diversity of the world, action has to be taken at the local level" Mr. John Scott, Convention on Biological Diversity
Asia Regional Capacity-Building Workshop brings representative of Governments,Indigenous leaders and local communities leaders from 12 countries to learn together and formed community of like-minded people.
The purpose of the capacity building workshop is to strengthen the capacity of indigenous peoples, local communities and National Focal Points on Traditional Knowledge (TK) and Customary Sustainable Use (CSU) and prepare them as trainers to develop national or local capacity-building workshops, in line with the implementation of the Strategic Plan of the UN decade on Biodiversity 2011-2020, in particular the achievements Target 18. The indicators for Traditional knowledge and Customary Sustainable Use are:
- Trends of linguistic diversity and numbers of speakers of indigenous languages
- Trends in land-use change and land tenure in traditional territories
- Trends in the practice of traditional occupations also in the context of monitoring implementation of UNDRIPs
- Trend in which Traditional Knowledge and Practices are respected through their full integration, safeguards and the full and effective participation of Indigenous and Local Communities in the implementation of the strategic plan (NBSAPs) including through analysis of national reports starting with 5th national reports and mid-term review of the UN decade on biodiversity
