After years of turbulence, equities markets are experiencing a period of relative tranquility. Some experts fear this calm surface could be masking trouble, but is there evidence to validate their concerns?
Stock market volatility entered its current state of stability in 2011, with the Volatility Index (VIX)—also known as the "fear index," which measures investors' volatility expectations by tracking the prices of futures contracts—falling to pre-recession levels. On its face, the present trend could be troubling. Historically, recessions have followed periods of low volatility, and the current slump in the VIX mirrors conditions in the mid-90s and mid-2000s, when complacent investors failed to see the risk posed by emerging asset bubbles.
The VIX's history, however, could actually be a good sign that we're finally on the path to real economic recovery. Given the cyclical nature of the market, the same periods of calm that preceded recessions have also tended to follow recessions during recovery periods. In the past, volatility has been a poor indicator of complacency—for instance in the late '90s, investors inflated the dot-com bubble, but their complacency was not reflected in the VIX, which rose sharply in the years prior to the 2000 crash.
Some investors also worry that monetary policies could be artificially suppressing volatility. Their central concern is that the Fed's unorthodox asset-purchasing program, aimed at stabilizing the bond market, created an overconfidence among investors that the central bank will continue to cushion future shocks, which could be contributing to an inadvertent asset bubble. If the Fed's asset-purchasing program led to complacency, the VIX should have spiked following last summer's announcement that the fed would end the program. But it had little impact on volatility, indicating that investors' calmness has little to do with monetary policies.
Another common fear experts have regarding low volatility is that investors may be ignoring the Fed's looming interest rate hike. In the past, rising interest rates have accompanied market volatility—but the correlation is strongest when rates are already relatively high and fluctuating rapidly. The current outlook calls for interest rates to climb steadily over a period of years, and even with increases, many expect rates to remain below historic levels. Ultimately, it's likely that investors aren't ignoring interest rate expectations—they're reacting to them.
Today's low volatility may actually reflect consensus, not complacency, among investors. With significant room for growth remaining in the global economy, most believe inflation will remain low and growth will continue. In light of the previous recession, it's understandable that some are nervous over the widespread optimism, but we should equally consider the possibility that volatility is low because there is little left to fear.

Three Miami Dolphins fined 10K for doing the Cupid Shuffle.

For your listening and viewing pleasure, the Cupid Shuffle (I couldn't find footage of the dance during the Dolphins-Chargers game):

End zone celebrations are fine if they are not disrespecting the other team, this is a hard hitting game and when you get that ball over the line for a touchdown the adrenaline and blood is pumping and the celebration is understandable. For a fine this big did they charge the official 10k for the bad call in the Bronco / Chargers game? I didn't read about it. Let the boys celebrate!

If you tell me names of other teammates that did it I'll to find pics of them in my spaare time P.S liked what you said " understand why dance celebrations like this are against the rules, but I can't help but like them. It's part of who a player is and in a wonderful moment, I just think it's cool to bask in the glory and let go. Athletes are not machines, you know? " very good point
- The other two players were right tackle Vernon Carey and right guard Ikechuku Ndukwe. Left tackle Jake Long was supposed to be in the dance too, but he dropped out at the last minute because he didn't want to be fined.

Google goes to war on 'fraudulent' and inflated YouTube video views
Google says misleading of fans is undermining 'important qualities'
The Guardian
Most Popular
YouTube visitors watch more than six billion hours of video every month, but not all of those eyeballs are real. Google says it will crack down on "fraudulent views" on YouTube from channels seeking to artificially inflate their view counts.
"When some bad actors try to game the system by artificially inflating view counts, they're not just misleading fans about the popularity of a video, they're undermining one of YouTube's most important and unique qualities," wrote software engineer Philipp Pfeiffenberger in a blog announcing the news. YouTube has always audited videos in an effort to try to spot inflated counts, but the company was stepping up its efforts according to Pfeiffenberger.
He said: "While in the past we would scan views for spam immediately after they occurred, starting today we will periodically validate the video's view count, removing fraudulent views as new evidence comes to light.
"We don't expect this approach to affect more than a minuscule fraction of videos on YouTube, but we believe it's crucial to improving the accuracy of view counts and maintaining the trust of our fans and creators." The move follows a warning delivered by YouTube to its network of channel owners in November last year, with another blog post warning against paying companies to lift view counts.
"If you're considering paying someone to increase your view count, you may want to think again. You probably won't get what you paid for," the post said.
"Views generated by some third-party businesses and services will not be counted on YouTube, and can lead to disciplinary action against your account, including removing your video or suspending your account."
YouTube's motivation for cracking down is partly about making its service more appealing to advertisers, so they can be sure their ads are being seen by real people. It is also likely to be related to the company's desire for channel-owners to build their audiences by paying to use its TrueView ads system.
YouTube is far from the only social media service attracting companies promising to artificially inflate metrics. Twitter followers and Facebook Likes are all buyable by the thousand online, for example.
In April last year, Italian researchers claimed there may be as many as 20 million fake Twitter accounts created by companies selling their followers to brands.

I still hold my suspicion and more so after reading the Google piece. Common sense tells me that despite an interesting topic on rude Chinese tourists, it can't be that interesting to hold attention of readers of SCMP for that long. Afterall, SCMP is no New York Times of a sustantial readership.
I would still like my last posting to advise SCMP to make sure its most popular list subjects to no willful interference through technology actually.

This is a 'meh' product. Cheap powder. Cheap results. It smells bad. It doesn't keep you matte for long, and it provides next to no coverage. Definitely a product for younger people, or girls who just dont really wear a lot of makeup and dont need much coverage or staying powder.

When I was a young tween (probably younger than that) and first trying out makeup, this was the powder my Mom gave me to use along with the Clean foundation. I remember this having a strong smell and stinging my skin. Yikes. She swears by this stuff, though.

I have been searching for the perfect powder that is light and matches my skin tone for awhile but then the other day when i was cleaning out my makeup draw i found the empty packaging of covergirls clean powder and i remembered how it worked great for blotting excess oil and it's not too heavy either and lasts all day im definatly going out later to buy this
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Sensitive, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other

I use this to set my makeup. I do not expect Any coverage from this what so ever i just use it to keep my face matte I use very little. I apply it around the creases of my nose my forehead and my chin. If you use to much it appears chalky I do not recommend using this on the entire face just in spots where you tend to get oily. I have to touch up in a few hours because I tend to look shiny. I hate the smell of this so much it smells like old lady perfume but most cover girl products do. It is cheap I got mine for $5 but I will not be buying this again because there is better powders out there for about the same price

I have tried this product as a face powder, and it is junk. It offers no coverage, and I had to reapply frequently.
I have also tried this product as a BRONZER with fairly good results. I have fairly light, warm-toned skin. I was looking for a matte bronzer, with absolutely no shimmer or glitter. I also didn't want to spend a ton of money for a product that I would only use for a few months every year. I bought Cover Girl Clean "Normal Skin" pressed powder in color #155 "Soft Honey" (which is several shades darker than my natural skintone) and it is perfect. I use a large powder brush to apply, and it goes on nice and sheer. I am very happy with this product as a bronzer.

Well I still haven't found my holy grail pressed powder to control my fair-medium combo oily skin! Anyways, I have this powder in the shade 545 warm beige, but it's in a blue packaging instead of the one in the picture. It's okay I guess, You just had to keep applying it but be really careful not to put too much because it does cake easily. It's not the best powder ever, but it's okay.

I hate the smell! It is very strong and medicine-like. I don't wear powder all the time but like to have some on hand in case my face looks shiny. For me, this product does the job. I like the compact design, although some people don't. Some people like the smell; I do not. I'm going to buy this product in the version for sensitive skin; the reviews say it's unscented.

I got it in the shade Tan. The powder is nice for touch-ups but I dislike the scent. Maybe I am sensitive to smells but I hate the scent that covergirl uses on all of their face products. Please covergirl get rid of that horrid scent!

Used this for about year would put over my cover girl foundation made my face breakout a lot and made ny face look super shiny by the end of the day

Loved this recipe. The muffins were awesome but the lime/honey butter was out of this world. What a great combination of flavors and they all worked perfectly together to create a memorable muffin. I enjoyed these for lunch and then had more for dinner. I couldn't help myself, they are that good. Full of flavor and textures, something for everyone. Made for ZWT7 (Witchin Kitchen)
I am giving this a 5 star for the muffins alone!!! These muffins are great. I love the way the corn kernels add that extra something!! I must admit I was not real keen on the lime butter. Just me I suppose! I like plain butter on mine!! Will be making these again for sure! Made for ZWT7 and the Saucy Silverodes.
Made exactly as written, a rarity for me. The muffins are a bit denser than the cornbread I'm used to but packed with flavor! I do think they need a touch more salt, though. I got 18 muffins pretty well full. In my convection oven, I baked them for 15 minutes. The crowning glory here is the lime butter! I could eat that stuff with a spoon. Getting the lime juice into solution with the butter & honey was a bit challeging but when whipped with a fork, it complied. (That'll teach that lime to be contrary ;-) Thanks for sharing!

Volume 52, Number 1, June 2013
pp. 36-68 | 10.1353/ol.2013.0013
This paper presents the results of a new innovation-based subgrouping argument for the Southwest Sabah languages of northern Borneo, including over 60 languages in Sabah, northern Sarawak, Brunei, and northern Kalimantan Timur. Data for many of these languages have never appeared in the literature before, and few of them have been included in previous studies except those based on lexicostatistics and intelligibility testing. In contrast with previous works, the current study is based on phonological and functor innovations. Discrepancies between the findings of the current study and previous studies are explained as the effect of contact and borrowing, which lexicostatistics and intelligibility testing cannot account for.

The only truly memorable moment of the hour-long debate was Angle' s pointed suggestion that Reid " man up," and face the realities of America' s entitlement crisis. The " man up" comment, which has inspired political t-shirts and other flare, was a prepared line that Angle delivered at an opportune moment. " I think Sharron really hit her stride after ' man up' because it worked and [Reid] was already floundering," the operative said.
Angle' s aide said the campaign was " thrilled" by the debate' s outcome. " We could not have been more pleased with our performance. Nevadans had an opportunity to meet the real Sharron Angle. She' s a plain-spoken woman, who' s not a career politician," the aide said. " She' s an average Nevadan who' s frustrated with the direction Harry Reid has taken our state." Asked if the campaign was at all surprised by Angle' s strong performance, this staffer said the bigger eye-opener was Reid' s poor showing. " As the Senate Majority Leader, he debates on the Senate floor every day. That' s what he does. So we were more than a little surprised by how flat he fell. He was all over the place."
As the race enters its final, frantic stretch, both Republicans expressed confidence about the direction the race is trending. " If we just stick to talking about the issues, we win," one said. " That' s why Reid is trying to make this all about Sharron, and other ancillary issues." The senior Republican operative, who has been in politics for two decades, predicted an Angle win, " absent some drastic change in dynamics." He said polling, early voting, and the overall political atmosphere favor Angle, and adding, " We' ve built a reasonable turnout operation to rival [Nevada Democrats' ], which is a machine. Of course, in a close race like this, you wake up in the middle of the night worrying if you' ve done everything you can do to win. You never know until it' s over, but I think we' re in pretty good shape."

What Was Good Enough For You Lyrics
What Was Good Enough For You Song Lyrics
What was always good enough for you Pa,
Hate to say ain't good enough for me,
Ploughing fields and planting seeds,
'Till your mind and body bleeds,
No way.
Up before dawn and you stop when you drop, Then you ask your God to forgive, Prayin' for rain, without rain there's no crop, This ain't no way to live.
What was always good enough for you Pa,
Will not satisfy your wayward son,
Jessie James had much more fun,
Building dreams with just a gun,
That?s how the West was won.
What was always good enough for you Ma,
Gotta say ain't good enough for me,
Making punch and baking pies,
Painting barns and swatting flies,
Oh no.
Writing a diary is tough around here,
Boring as hell, sorry Ma,
I wanna wear diamonds one stud for each ear, Bright as the morning star,
What was always good enough for you Ma, Will not satisfy your little girl, More to life than potting plants, I don?t wanna miss my chance, I'm looking for romance.
This country has had its day,
Depression and breadlines,
Are all that tomorrow will bring.
Tell 'em Clyde.
The Bible has got it wrong,
Just look at the poor,
Babe the meek don't inherit a thing.
There ain't nothing good enough for us, yeah, We deserve what we are going to get, This world should be notified, It's gonna be a bumpy ride, Thanks to Bonnie and Clyde

Thanks to an indecisive jury, Chris Henry is off the hook for the time being.
WKRC-TV reports that the assault case against the former Bengals receiver resulted in a mistrial on Tuesday, when jurors couldn't agree on a verdict. Of the eight members of the jury, "they had six jurors voting for acquittal, two voting for conviction and none could be swayed."
In addition to temporarily escaping a guilty verdict, Henry was also given a little more good news from the judge:
He told Henry he could removed the electronic monitoring device he's been wearing but he's been ordered to stay away from the victim and the witnesses in the case.
So he can't be sociable. At least he's free from his e-cuffs.
A new pre-trial hearing has been set for Henry for next Tuesday, July 8. Hopefully for his return courthouse visit, Chris is more careful about where he parks.

One of the more interesting wargame designs coming out of Nazi Germany.
The game features 4 duplicate triangular maps of the field of battle that can be placed together to form a square board. Each section of the map contains 90 points with various obstacles that must be overcome (minefields, hedgehogs, wire fences) or repaired (blown bridges, destroyed roads). The playing pieces are metal miniatures (painted flats) consisting of German Sappers with various implements (explosives, wire cutters, Flame-thrower, etc.) and a tank.
The sappers move based on a die roll, in any combination the player desires. The object of the game is to overcome obstacles by gathering the right combination of sappers at the obstacle which is either then destroyed or repaired for the rest of the game. The final obstacle is a bunker that sits on the intersection of all four boards and must be destroyed to win the game.

This claims to be an enzyme exfoliator with glycolic acid, but I am not sure if glycolic acid works in just 30 seconds. Some people say the balling up is due to the product formula, not to the dead skin coming off. The truth is that if you work this gel on the skin for more than 60 seconds your skin will get irritated. It is true that if you have peach fuzz it will cling to it and you will have to remove it rubbing your skin with a washcloth and warm water. Your skin might look patchy after the exfoliation and you will have to moisturize a lot. In conclusion, The application is such a mess and you can have the same results by washing your skin with a washcloth.

Loved this product for quite some time! Sometimes when I buy it, it's old, too long on the shelf. Only complaint is if you don't use it quickly it gets too thick! Still works fine just harder to use.No longer carried at Sally Beauty Supply . :-(

I e had this for a couple months and after reading some negative reviews, and few unimpressive uses stopped using it until I got patches of dry skin I couldn't get rid of. I thought wth might as well try this again...and THEN I was impressed, not only did my foundation go on so smoothly but it was KAT VON D which is really thick
Full coverage that if not prepped perfectly ure face will be caked out! I feel the 14$ bucks is a GREAT deal especially since u get such a large amt. I have super quick cell turn over rate on my face...it's not possible to wear foundation everyday unless I exfoliate, so if this works this well for me...it's gotta be great for others.

This is a exfoliating gel without scrub particles its a gel that sticks to the deads skin. When applied to dry face and rubbed around the dead skin will just ball up. It is comparable to a popular japanese exfoliating gel. The only con is if your face has a lot of peach fuzz/hair it will stick to the hairs and hard to remove without using a face towel and fingers to pull the clumps off. Pulling the clumps off will yank some of the hairs off. If your hands have dead skin it will stick to your hands. Other than sticking to the hairs and annoying to remove it does work. After the skin has that squeaky feel and peeling flakey skin is gone. The face is slightly red from scrubbing with a towel and but it does go away. This is less harsh in terms that it doesn't contain large exfolating particles that can irritate and cause microfine cuts in the skin and leave your skin with red peeling flakey patches.

I've been reading a lot of reviews here so just to the people who aren't stuck on this product that's fine but keep in mind just because its not working for you doesn't mean it won't for other people. Myself like a lot of people stuffer with bad skin. I used the exfoliating gel and a few other products and after only one use my face is already improving!! My lumps are half their size and my scars are toned a little. I'm really impressed. For those who stated it dried their skin out I was told that would happen so I got the mask and the daily cream from fruitique as well! Good luck to anyone else I hope it works for you too!! :)

I don't care what anybody says, I love this product. Believe me, I am very cynical when it comes to products and am not easily fooled. At first, I was a little skeptical when I bought this but even I have to admit that it works. Not all peeling gels are created equal and some are just bottles of junk. However, this one actually works.
This really exfoliates the skin. I've been using it for 6-8 months once or twice a week and have gotten very good results. It's a clear gel that smells of papaya enzymes, which has kind of a bitter scent. I wash my face, wait until it dries, then rub this on my face for about 30 seconds. In that short amount of time it thoroughly exfoliates my skin, believe it or not. Afterwards, my skin is glowing and very smooth. It has never irritated my skin or broken me out.
It's not the product balling up; it's dead skin. How do I know this? Well, I did a little experiment. I tested it on the back of my hand. The skin on my hands was very dry and really needed to be exfoliated. I used one pump on the back of my hands, massaged it in and of course TONS of dead skin came off. Okay, I rinsed, dried and repeated the process. Guess what? No dead skin the second time around! The product didn't "ball" up; it just turned to liquid. If it was the product itself balling up, then why didn't it happen the second time? You see, it only exfoliates DEAD skin cells. You can't over exfoliate with this product and that's why I love it so much. I highly recommend it to anyone, especially those with sensitive skin.

Don't get fooled like I did. This is not exfoliating your dead skin .Got sucked into buying this because of reading reviews on Japanese cleaners. I thought " Wow, day after day, more dead skin off. "Then I looked at Chemists Corner for information about these formulations and how they work. They said its actually the formula ingredients balling up on your skin ( the reaction takes place on skin only, not counters or books or anywhere else you try and rub it) but consumers like to believe its dead skin. Big fail.

FANTASTIC PRODUCT! Tried it last night. It's a very light watery gel. You put it on dry clean skin and rub in for 30 seconds and it instantly balls up your dead skin cells and takes them away. I rinsed it off very easily (don't know why the comments about it doesnt come off easilyl) and i felt my face. SMOOTHER THAN IT'S EVER BEEN. I have some chin acne and even smoothed that out. I also tried the Apricot Mask afterward. Two very very amazing products. It says to only use twice a week but i'm going to do it every other day and see what happens. My skin is very not sensitive. WOW! RUN OUT AND BUY THIS IMMEDIATELY! !!!!! If i could give this product 100 stars i would! It cost $10 with a coupon at Sally's. Amazing!

This is my first review, but it was worth writing about. I once used a dead sea mineral exfoliant gel when I worked at the mall and got suckered into buying it. I had 3 part time jobs though and I was a lot younger, so I didn't have a solid skin care routine set up, and I didn't even end up finishing the jar. Lately my skin has been drying up and my pores are large so I looked into getting the Cure cleansing gel from Japan, because that dead sea mineral gel exfoliant worked so well!! It's 30 dollars right now on amazon, and although I've heard for the most part its worth the money, I spent an awful long time looking for a dupe. Someone from MUA pointed me to this from their Cure review. I have sensitive skin that goes between combination and dry, with redness, which is why I have been looking for something without a manual exfoliant. This did not make the redness worse, and it made my skin glow afterward. I use this at night so I don't have to worry about any increased sensitivity to the sun (even with spf care, my pale skin will turn really red in the heat). When I put on products after I use Frutique, they seem to work better, making my skin soft even upon waking. I read some reviews talking about how when the gel balled up, it would stick to hair and was a pain to get off. I didn't have that problem, but I did rinse it off fairly quickly because I read that. However, sometimes my skin will have a bit of tackiness afterward, but it goes away immediately after I put my night cream on my damp face. Hope this helped :)

I'd been reading up on Japanese skincare recently, and enjoying the results, so I thought I'd give this (cheaper) product a try before buying the Cure stuff others have mentioned.
I got sucked in because Sally's had a buy 1, get 1 on the Frutique line, so I got the cleanser and the exfoliator. Turns out I liked them both so well I got more exfoliator gel and the rest of the line, LOL!
For me, the exfoliating gel is a bit rough for my face, but it's perfect for my elbows and upper arms, my hands, my chest, feet, legs and other bits that need a bit of exfoliating that aren't quite as sensitive.
I rub it on before I get in the shower, then rinse and rub gently with a puff to get it off, then get on with the rest of my shower.
The main thing I notice is that the product tends to ball up around strands of hair, so if you've got a peach-fuzzy face like me, it might be a bit of a hassle. (Most of the hair on my face is translucent, pretty much invisible unless you look REALLY closely in the mirror. Hard to see, but there.) I think, for me, the irritation from the product is related to all the hair pulling that seems to be an inevitable result of removing the little balls of product. I could be wrong, and as I say, I'll mostly be using this on parts of my body that aren't quite so prone to redness, so it won't really be an issue.
Another thing: Do NOT get this stuff in your hair! Mine's pretty long, and when I got a bit of product on it, it was kind of hard to remove, in fact, I had to work pretty hard to rinse it away. Definitely not something I want to repeat.

The Vollmer Question: Light's out???
"Did we think he could play right tackle? Yeah. But I think he's a better left tackle than he is a right tackle. I'm not saying he can't do it, he just better on the other side. Nick, on the other hand, came in as a left tackle in college, all the way, the first thing we do is move him over to right tackle, and he's done well there.
"Last year, we got into a bind, and previous years when we've been in a bind, we move Nick back to left tackle. He truly has played both. But, again, until something like that happens, you don't really know. Can Matt play right tackle? I'm sure he could. But he's done a lot better at left tackle."
The crux of what Belichick is saying seems to be this: Vollmer and Kaczur have plenty of position flexibility. Light might have that, but he's been on the left for so long, it might be hard to know.
Before that, the coach was asked if he knew (with Stephen Neal's head injury compounding all this) what his line would look like Sunday. Quickly, he said, "I don't."
Light was quick to move along in the locker room, characterizing his status as "questionable" for the Jets game as hurried out of there.
So for now, it looks like all this is anyone's guess.

The north Londoners were comprehensively beaten by the Bundesliga leaders at Emirates Stadium last month as the visitors took a big step towards a quarter-final place.
But despite the significant challenge that awaits his side, Wenger is refusing to write off his side's chances of reaching the last eight.
"We're chasing the game in a very difficult environment against a team that has no doubts at all," Wenger told Arsenal Player.
"But our mentality is to go there, not resigned, but ambitious and provoke things, not go there and think 'we will not qualify anyway'. No, not at all. We will go to Munich and have to go there and give ourselves a chance to qualify with everybody believing we can do it.
"We have to behave on the football pitch like a team who wants to do it. That will be the task in the preparation. How will we go into the game tactically? I haven't decided yet. It will be with an ambitious plan, that is for sure."

In an attempt to upgrade my Mendel to a MendelMax alike X axis (where the X belt is 90 degrees rotated like the Pruse belt path) I redesigned the X-ends to hold a 22mm trapezoid or ACME nut.
Aditionally, I added a tensioner system in order to be able to modify belt tension on the X axis without abusing the carriage attachment for that.
The goal is to use the original Mendel length of smooth rod. As such the block is a fair bit longer than some of the MendelMax designs I have seen; this allows the tensioner system to be placed on it as well.
- Modelled in SolidWorks 2012
- Uses 2 LM8UU bearings
- Bearings are clamped down with 2x 3mm screws
- Rods are clamped down with 2x 4mm screws
- Uses 4x 608 bearings for the belt path
Why not in OpenSCAD? Because prototyping and fitting things together is a breeze in SW - as soon as I work out the issues with this design I will put up a link to the design with an OpenSCAD version as well.
There are 2 versions of this design, one with nice curves and one with a square base block. The rounded version turned out to be impossible to print in one piece using ABS; splitting it into two halves did not help much.
The normal version is using a square base and has much material removed in an attempt to reduce warping and decrease print times.
Both designs most likely require a heated chamber and/or the use of PLA to print properly; as I only have ABS at the moment and only a heated bed I can not get this to print straight.
Words of Wisdom
I have posted this for inspiration and as a base for another iteration of this design. It should fit a Mendel (standard rod length) and MendelMax (assuming your rods are long enough).
The distance between the centers of the smooth rod and trapezoid spindle is 29mm, NOT 30mm like on the... errr... prusa?
- Use a heated chamber with ABS or PLA if you have non-warping plastic.
- Print the rounded version without support
- Print the normal version with support as the clamping section is sticking out in thin air
- Print a tensioner bracket and push block
- Put a 40mm bolt through the tensioner block from the back, through the tensioner, add the push block, a washer and a nut
- Optionally: use a longer bolt, add a spring to generate an even tension (use a strong spring or you will induce back-lash!)
- Optionally: print a second tensioner bracket and insert it into the second holder on the other side of the body. Use a longer 8mm bolt or threaded rod to extend from the primary tensioner to the secondary tensioner. This should allow for more force on the tensioner before it breaks.

The Montana Supreme Court has overturned a 30-day prison sentence handed to a former high school teacher who was convicted of a raping a 14-year-old student.
We told you last year about the case. Here's a brief summary:
Stacey Dean Rambold was sentenced to a month in prison for the rape in 2007 of a 14-year-old student who later killed herself. He was released last September. The case unleashed widespread criticism against District Judge G. Todd Baugh, who issued the sentence, and said the teenage girl "seemed older than her chronological age." He later apologized.
The Associated Press reports that the state Supreme Court ruled that a new judge must re-sentence Rambold, who has been free since serving his original term.
The AP adds: "Yellowstone County Attorney Scott Twito said that according to state sentencing laws, the decision means Rambold must serve a minimum of two years in prison."
Prosecutors, who appealed the original 30-day sentence, want Rambold to serve at least four years in prison, the state's mandatory minimum. Attorneys for Rambold say his original sentence was appropriate.
The state Supreme Court also says that a disciplinary complaint against Baugh from the Judicial Standards Commission will be handled separately.

Bull Creek Boo LbNA # 24916
|Placed Date
|Aug 26 2006
|Austin, TX
We love Bull Creek, and hope you will too - and hope you visit our letter box! Start at the trail head closest to the intersection between Spicewood Springs and Old Spicewood Springs road - park in the unpaved lot. Walk down main trail, with fences on both sides. Go down and cross creek (shouldn't be a problem unless very high water) and go up hill on other side. When you get to the top of the hill on the trail, there is small path that splits off main trail to the left that goes further up the hill. Across from that split, on the right, you will see a cedar tree with 4 trunks... don't get spooked as you search for what you seek...
The kids didn't want to go too deep in woods - so be careful putting it back - it's pretty exposed!

to play football, not to play trumpet
Notre Dame miniprogram
here it is, didn't get a chance to update per the Bosch news and not sure where Glasgow fits in.
Game 1 Miniprogram
here is the miniprogram for the first game with roster, depth chart and future schedules. let me know if there are any comments or corrections to make.
Miniprogram Annual Summary
so, a few years back i started putting up those miniprograms you see around here during football:
as you can see, from the chart below, readership on these has declined over the years. it does, to a degree mirror fan excitement with the first games after a Sugar Bowl win topping the list of "most reads" along with a few ND and MSU games. Games like Eastern and UMass get pretty low reads, i might not even have gotten them up on time.
anyway, this is basically a heads up that, without a real significant outcry from the board, i am going to trim down the output to just a few a year, i am thinking right now it would be ND, MSU, PSU and OSU. i will try to have the ND one up prior to the opener so that at least the UM roster and depth chart will be correct, but it may have the ND roster info on it.
if there are any comments, thoughts, improvements to be made on this, i am open to it.
OSU miniprogram
lets see if getting this up a bit earlier gets a few more reads this week. either way, its been an honor playing with you this evening...
Iowa Miniprogram
here is the miniprogram for iowa. gotta start getting these up earlier. let me know if there are any changes or comments.
MSU miniprogram - link fixed
sorry for the technical issues, should be up and running
mini program for the spartans. usually i put a bit of time into little tidbits for these. i just couldn't stand reading anymore about them.

"The advice I like to give young artists, or really anybody who'll listen to me, is not to wait around for inspiration. Inspiration is for amateurs; the rest of us just show up and get to work. If you wait around for the clouds to part and a bolt of lightning to strike you in the brain, you are not going to make an awful lot of work. All the best ideas come out of the process; they come out of the work itself. Things occur to you. If you're sitting around trying to dream up a great art idea, you can sit there a long time before anything happens. But if you just get to work, something will occur to you and something else will occur to you and something else that you reject will push you in another direction. Inspiration is absolutely unnecessary and somehow deceptive. You feel like you need this great idea before you can get down to work, and I find that's almost never the case." - Chuck Close
Good luck on your projects this year!

TO THE ASPIRING ARTISTS.... by LeSeanThomasWatch
©2013-2016 LeSeanThomas
True brilliant words spoken. Thank you for this. This is absolutely accurate in my case. (It's almost like during the process you find YOURSELF starting to 'inspire' YOURSELF with every progressing curve of the pen, stroke of the brush, or lofty line of a sentence.)
Thanks , I honestly needed that! ^o^
Cant wait to start uploading artwork.
Cant wait to start uploading artwork.
I admit it... I'm just a lazy f***.
Thanks for sharing!!!
I may not take the time to comment as much, but I love these blog posts you make!
Thanks Mentor
So you just saying is just push yourself basically. I was just thinking about that weird and Thanks.
Well said...
in Mandarin the symbol for Chaos and Creativity is the same…I always found that very profound.
Thanks for posting. I really needed some inspiring words today. Good with your projects too, bro.
Pretty freakin' true.
Agreed. Sometimes I feel like every time I sit down to draw I need to come up with something new and just sit there tapping my pencil on the desk. Lately I've been trying to break that habit by just drawing whatever that comes to mind; whether it be a previous character, figure drawing or some fanart.
Wow, it's true........screw inspiration, I'm just gonna keep animating the way it comes to me! *Goes back to animating*
Thank you sir.
this is especially true at art school...you cannot afford to wait around for inspiration you have to be constantly producing... I think it's a pretty important thing to learn, also constantly producing just makes you a better artist.
thanks man, thanks alot
tru dat, it only becomes a bother when you can't focus on one
THANK YOU SIR! It needed to be said, and frankly I needed to be reminded!
I read Brandon's response. But Brandon, much like Chuck, is his own artist. While Brandon does have his opinion, i don't think it makes the point any less truthful. The commentary however brash, rings true about those who procrastinate. Every circumstance is different of course. I do think there is a difference between being inspired by ideas and being inspired to work. The latter gets you into a lot of trouble if you're on a deadline.
I agree, when that deadline rolls around, you either have the work or you don't. And I didn't think too much about how they seem to be addressing two different kinds of inspiration. (feel like Close might be addressing motivation more than inspiration maybe? Or I might be totally wrong, haha)
But either way, actually making stuff rather than waiting for the perfect conditions is most important. So I'm gonna follow the advice and get to drawing!
Also, thanks for posting these inspirational quotes and messages man!

cool, thanks for the morale boost i needed it.
Thanks for the advice
Wow thanks for this entry. It's just what I needed to read!
Came for the art, stay for the knowledge that gets dropped on my ass...
Thanks! I'm waiting for yours to be honest
thanks! You are great at finding and giving us info to get us working!
Funny, I read this approximately 3 weeks after I understood it XD Yeah, I'm working on a remake of my 3rd manga/comic and I'm creating new projects along the way as well
WOOW.. Thanks a lot for sharing this with us!!
Thanks for the words dude, I'm sure everyone appreciates them.
and then my art with pooped all over people's DA pages to like yours?
I have experienced this firsthand with the projects I'm working on! I wish I knew that I couldn't wait around for inspiration when I was a younger artist... I got very few things done. But past is past, and now I know that great things will come out of just getting to work. Ideas spring into my mind unlike any other time, and those ideas are usually the best above all other ones.
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for sharing!
Will take care to remember this when I will be having my next art block.

Our Community
In Memory
What better way to pay your respect to your loved one than to give a life-affirming gift in their memory to research into the cause of Alzheimer's disease? The bereavement need not be recent - entries can commemorate someone who died many years ago. Gifts in memory can be made online or by mail. If you wish to set up a memorial page for a loved one, please contact us.
Our Heroes
Cure Alzheimer's Fund has raised over $50 million for Alzheimer's disease research — and we couldn't have done it without the support of amazing individuals like the ones featured here. Our Heroes are fundraising for us all over the globe by organizing everything from races to tournaments to concerts to benefit Cure Alzheimer's Fund.
Jeff MaddenI am raising money for the cure of Alzheimer's by climbing Mont Blanc in Switzerland in memory of my Grandmother, who frequently cited Geneva as one of her favorite cities in the world. Mont Blanc is a majestic mountain and the tallest in the Alps, standing 15,771 feet.

Paul Coopersmith has been running Coopersmith's One-of-a-Kind Tours in the UK, Western Europe, Japan and New Zealand since 1984. His tours are targeted towards travelers who don't consider themselves the typical "tour types" - they consist of small groups and cover limited geographical areas in order to spend ample time in each location, focusing on gardens, stately homes and fine arts.
Team BoomerangFit
My name is Terry Lee. My mother and grandmother both died of Alzheimer's Disease and I witnessed what a horrible fate this can be for a person, their family and friends. Today, 5.3 million Americans are living with Alzheimer's disease. By 2050, up to 16 million will have the disease. Payments for care in 2012 were estimated to be $200 billion. Without a cure, these figures will nearly triple by the year 2050.

Message of His Excellency Benigno S. Aquino III President of the Philippines On the occasion of the start of the...
The traditional celebration of the Yuletide Season has been generally peaceful natonwide.
Police authorities made this assessment as they noted fewer casualties and injuries in the revelries during the entire Christmas Holiday.
Initial assessment by the Department of Health showed a 17% decrease in firecracker-related injuries since Dec 21.
The PNP attributed this generally peaceful situation to the intensified nationwide campaign against prohibited firecrackers and indiscriminate firing of guns that was implemented vigorously by police units on instructions of President Benigno S Aquino III.
PNP Chief, Director General Alan LM Purisima congratulated local Police Commanders and his counterpart officials of national government agencies for successfully minimizing Yuletide casualties this year.
In Metro Manila, NCRPO Chief, Director Leonardo A Espina reported the arrest of 215 retailers and distributors of prohibited firecrackers and nine others persons for indiscriminate firing of guns during the Holiday revelry.
A total of P1.650-million worth of banned firecrakers were confiscated in 512 separate operations in by the five Police Districts. (PNP-PIO)

Thanks Mr. Trollbait, you astound me with your expert knowledge on such advanced features as Search. Perhaps you could enlighten us all and point to a thread that documents the remote unit protocol? All I have ever seen around here is the wire breakdown and some not-so-practical ideas about sticking IR detectors on the faceplate.Originally Posted by Gunmaster
What is really needed is the baudrate and Huffman patterns for the display so that it can be wired to a 9-pin DIN and plugged into anything from a serial port to a USB adapter. Maybe I'll sit down with it this weekend and try to figure it out.
