The Washington Redskins, Minnesota Vikings, Detroit Lions and Tampa Bay Buccaneers all fired their head coaches a day after the regular season concluded as part of the National Football League's so-called Black Monday.
The Redskins dumped Mike Shanahan, the Vikings parted ways with Leslie Frazier, the Buccaneers fired Greg Schiano and the Lions axed Jim Schwartz after each team finished well out of the playoff picture.
Shanahan's Redskins went 3-13, Frazier's Vikings finished 5-10-1 and Schiano's Bucs went 4-12 as all teams finished last in their respective divisions. Schwartz's Lions were 7-9.
The announcements came a day after the Cleveland Browns fired head coach Rob Chudzinski hours after his team closed out the 2013 season with a seven-game losing streak to finish 4-12.
Shanahan went 24-20 in four seasons as coach of the Redskins but his future at the helm came under question given the team's performance and his tenuous relationship with quarterback Robert Griffin III.
"Redskins fans deserve a better result," owner Dan Snyder said in a statement.
Shanahan's departure comes in the wake of a disappointing season for the Redskins, who started the year with high hopes coming off a 10-6 record and the NFC East title in 2012.
The Vikings, meanwhile, axed Frazier after he went 21-32-1 in three-plus seasons. Minnesota made the playoffs last year but regressed in 2013.
"Unfortunately, we did not achieve consistent success and did not achieve the progress we expected," Vikings General Manager Rick Spielman said in a statement.
Tampa Bay dropped Schiano after two mediocre seasons and also ditched general manager Mark Dominik.
"The results over the past two years have not lived up to our standards and we believe the time has come to find a new direction," said Buccaneers Co-Chairman Bryan Glazer.
Detroit fired Schwartz after a late-season fade that cost the Lions a playoff berth as they lost their final four games.
Schwartz was 29-51 in five seasons with the Lions. They had only one winning season during his tenure, going 10-6 in 2011.
"I think it's a cut-and-dry wins and losses business," said Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford, who added that the players had to accept "quite a bit" of responsibility for the team's mediocre season.
Chudzinski, meanwhile, lasted only one season with the Browns even though he has three years remaining on his contract.
The Houston Texans fired Gary Kubiak in early December with three games left in the season, making him the first of six head coaches to lose their job this month.
The exodus of head coaches may not be over with reports suggesting the Tennessee Titans and Miami Dolphins could also make changes.
But amid the firing carnage, it is worth noting that several under-pressure coaches have survived to fight another season.
The New York Jets have said they will keep Rex Ryan after going 8-8 and failing to make the playoffs, while the Dallas Cowboys seem poised to keep Jason Garrett.
The Cowboys (8-8) missed the playoffs when they lost to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, but owner Jerry Jones reportedly is happy with Garrett.

I have sent in a headphone amp. I got offered to lower the gain some to get more use of the volume knob. But is there all there is to change gain... Lowering gain gives lower max volume. It doesn´t effect current output or voltage swing at the same SPL level or anything else?
Gain and headphone amps
- 304 Posts. Joined 3/2008

99.99% of amplifiers have a volume control (actually an attenuator) at the input. This attenuated signal is then passed to an amplifier stage that operates at a pre-set amplification level (called 'gain'). Nearly every amp that I have experienced has far too much gain, hence the volume control (attenuator) must be turned right down.
There is more than one way to reduce the maximum output. One way (the amateur way) is to divide the voltage immediately before or after the attenuator so that far less is passed to the amplifier stage. This does no favours to the signal-to-noise ratio (...but you might not hear it anyway). The better way is to design the amp section with lower gain from the outset. Or to reduce the gain of the amp stage if it already exists. However doing this requires good knowledge of the amp design, because some circuits do not like to run at low gains (for example, some op-amps are not automatically stable at low gains). Finally the output can be reduced by introducing a resistance between the ouput and your 'phones. This works as a simple voltage divider, and obliterates any 'damping factor' that you may have had (which may or may not be of importance or relevance, depending upon your 'phones, etc.)
So, back to your question... if the reduction is by way of amp stage gain modification, it is likely that A) the ouptut current potential will be unchanged, and B) the peak potential voltage swing will be unchanged. However any competent engineer doing the work should be able to advise you of the facts pertaining to their intended work.
Cheers for now,

Council tries to charge rent to home-owner for his own backyard
- Paul Openshaw, 38, returned from a holiday to a letter asking him for rent on part of his garden
- If he does not pay up, his garden shed might be evicted by court order
- The father has vowed to fight the claim, saying his house was fully surveyed when he bought it
A father was stunned after council officers asked him to pay rent on a six-foot wide strip of land in his garden.
Paul Openshaw, 38, from Royton, returned home from a holiday to find a letter from his local authority, Oldham Council, demanding an annual rent of £50, which he is refusing to pay.
Transport manager Mr Openshaw, who has has lived in the Manchester property for 12 years, said he had no idea that the small walkway to the side of his house was registered as council land.
It has been fenced to the property for at least 25 years.
The row broke out after inspectors at cash-strapped Oldham Council in Greater Manchester carried out an inspection of their assets while Mr Openshaw was on holiday in June.
Gathering evidence: Paul Openshaw measuring the six-foot piece of land in contention
It emerged the six-foot wide strip, which houses a gravel path, garden shed and part of his decking, may once have been on the site of a disused public highway.
Officials may now seek a court order to 'evict' Mr Openshaw's shed and gravel path unless he pays rent.
They have also charged him £180 in surveyors fees, claiming the council had a 'duty to manage its assets in the interests of the public'.
But Mr Openshaw said he had already paid £550 in legal fees to challenge the council's claim, and would continue to fight to make the land legally his own.
He said: 'I bought the house 12 years ago and there was already a fence attaching the land to my property.
Contentious: Paul Openshaw's backyard, over which he is in dispute with Oldham Council
'It's just a small piece of land around 6ft wide - it's not like it's a football pitch. Yet all of a sudden they're saying they own it and they want rent from me.
'But I've never heard anything before and I had all the usual checks carried out before I bought the house.
'Having to spend that kind of money isn't great for anyone at any time of year let alone in the run up to Christmas. It's just ridiculous.
'If the council are now claiming they own my land which has been maintained to a decent standard they should give the road outside a proper permanent Tarmac surface so it comes up to a more acceptable standard too.
'There have been potholes in the road outside for years. I didn't complain about them myself but I know the other neighbours did and I was hoping the council would fill them in. I can't believe they carried out this inspection instead.'
Mr Openshaw, whose wife Michelle, 34, was made redundant from her store assistant job earlier this year, discovered the problem in June when he returned from a week's holiday.
He added: 'The letter was from "Unity Partnerships" on behalf of the council and it stated that the land wasn't mine and that I'd have to cough up £50 rent a year and £180 for surveyor fees.
'It stated the council took their assets very seriously and that they needed the money.
'I was absolutely baffled. I sent an e-mail saying how on earth was it their land - it was the most ridiculous thing I'd ever heard. I hired a solicitor and have already paid more than £500 in fees.
'My only option is to stick at it and carry on negotiating with the council or basically let them do their worst and take me to court.'
Problem: Part of the land in dispute by Oldham Council, whose officers have laid claim to it
Mr Openshaw had his house fully surveyed when he bought it for £46,000 in 2000.
Since receiving the letter from the council, he tried to take 'possessory title' of the land through an application to the Land Registry as he has lived there for more than 10 years.
But his plea was rejected on the grounds of a legal technicality.
He said: 'It is something I believed I owned for all those years and for them to take it away in an instant is unbelievable. I obviously had my house surveyed when I bought it twelve years ago and this was never mentioned.
'I am prepared to fight this at the moment, but if too much money gets involved it may be a struggle, especially leading up to Christmas.'
Dispute: Part of Mr Openshaw's garden may once have been on the site of a disused public highway
Oldham Council, which is battling to save £45m in budget cuts, said officials did not know why the issue of the land had not been flagged up earlier and assumed it must have been 'missed' on previous occasions.
Councillor Dave Hibbert, cabinet member for housing, transport and planning, said: 'Oldham Council is the registered owner of the land and during a recent inspection it was noted there was an encroachment that hadn't been authorised.
'This information is available to the public and solicitors prior to any house purchase. We have quoted our standard garden licence rental and hope we can reach an amicable settlement.'

New PharmAthene SparVaxA® Anthrax Vaccine Data Published In Clinical And Vaccine Immunology
ANNAPOLIS, Md., Nov. 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- PharmAthene, Inc. (NYSE MKT: PIP), a biodefense company developing medical countermeasures against biological and chemical threats, today announced that new data from the Company's next-generation SparVax ® recombinant protective antigen (rPA) anthrax vaccine program were published in the November issue of the American Society for Microbiology peer-reviewed journal Clinical and Vaccine Immunology. The article entitled, "Increasing the Potency of an Alhydrogel-Formulated Anthrax Vaccine by Minimizing Antigen-Adjuvant Interactions" describes achievements by PharmAthene scientists in optimizing the vaccine's formulation to maintain stability and enhance potency. The analytical data, generated through collaboration with the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) and other institutions, demonstrate that subtle changes in the interaction between rPA and an immune-stimulating adjuvant (Alhydrogel ®) yield important improvements in immunogenicity, which correspond to better protection and enhanced survival in mice in an anthrax vaccine potency test."There is a compelling need for next-generation anthrax vaccines, based on modern vaccine technologies, that offer the potential for improved safety, convenience and cost-effectiveness for the U.S. government and its citizens," commented Dr. Peter Fusco, Vice President, Immunobiology and Assay Development for PharmAthene. "Subunit vaccines, like SparVax ®, which consist of a purified recombinant antigen and an immune-stimulating adjuvant (Alhydrogel ®), are being evaluated for their potential to provide a safer and more consistent alternative to partially-purified microbial cell filtrates or extracts. We are very encouraged by the additional data that has been generated, which furthers our understanding of the characteristics that differentiate SparVax ® from other anthrax vaccines." PharmAthene's rPA anthrax vaccine program has been funded in whole or in part with federal funds from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, National Institutes of Health and the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority.

SC Johnson HQ Testing Wind Energy
SC Johnson has started a pilot wind energy program at its headquarters in Racine, Wis.
With three wind turbines, the company says it aims to show that renewable energy can work at office buildings in urban settings. The turbines will set atop one of seven buildings at the SC Johnson campus.
The use of renewable energy is essential to"conducting business in a responsible way," said Chairman and CEO Fisk Johnson, in a press release.
The turbines should be functional by the end of January, reports AZOCleantech.
While the turbines will generate just a small portion of electricity required by the campus, SC Johnson sees the pilot as a means of proving whether similar installations can be made at its other worldwide offices, Johnson said.
"We expect to have clear, consistent results within a year," said Johnson.
In 2008, SC Johnson began powering 46 percent of its second largest North American manufacturing plant in Bay City, Michigan with wind energy.
The company powers its largest global manufacturing plant with cogeneration turbines that run on natural gas and waste methane from a public landfill.
According to the firm's most recent sustainability report, it cut greenhouse gas emissions at its worldwide factories by 27 percent during the last eight years, including all its United States operations by 17 percent since 2005.
The company is using purchased renewable energy for 34 percent of its energy needs.

"Grey Goo Man" warns nanotechnology could be like thalidomide
Think before you make the quantum leap
According to yesterday's Independent on Sunday, Prince Charles Philip Arthur George Windsor, also known as the Prince of Wales, and the first heir to the throne ever to "earn" a university degree, has backed a boffin at Cambridge University who suggests that nanotechnology could pose untold dangers in the future.
He said in the article that he doesn't fear grey goo, has never used that term, and he doesn't believe that self replicating robots will devour our planet.
He says the Royal Society and the Royal Academy of Engineering are conducting a joint study on nanotechnology which will help separate the facts from the science friction.
He reckons that we probably know less about nanoscales than De Havilland knew about metal fatigue. But we reckon that Intel and AMD know more about nanotechnology than he does. And that the self-replicating robots devouring the planet probably work for search engines and use nanoscale semiconductors to propagate. µ

The result of six years of intensive fieldwork, "On the Run" examines the precarious lives of men who are in and out of prison, and the devastating effects on already impoverished urban communities.
AP/Steve Miller
The poor routinely vanish from city streets after encounters with police. They are swallowed up by jails and prisons for weeks, months or years for offenses often trivial or invented. These disruptions of lives have destroyed cohesion in urban communities, which live in heightened states of fear and troubling unrest.

Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel's current attempt to close down 54 public schools largely inhabited by poor minorities is one more example of a savage, racist neoliberal system that uses the politics of austerity and consolidation to further disenfranchise unskilled youths in the inner city.

A thoughtful, personal essay by photographer Hank Willis Thomas makes the case that the cultures of America's inner-city black communities, once dignified by the gains of the civil rights movement, have been steadily degraded over the last three decades by corporate capitalism.
David Kennedy, author of "Don't Shoot: One Man, a Street Fellowship, and the End of Violence in Inner-City America," spent more than 10 years in the worst corners of the worst cities in the country before going to Baltimore.

Dear Steve,
Overall very happy with the experience. This is the first time that I have used Fleetprices and indeed the first time I have taken on a car through a leasing scheme (I have had company cars for the last 20 years). I chose Fleetprices on the recommendation of Richard Marston.
A couple of comments that I hope will taken in the spirit in which they are offered (to improve an already good service):
- I would have liked to have been kept better informed on the status of the delivery date, and
- For me as a first time user, more easily accessible information regarding what my own obligations were would have been helpful; e.g. that I had to arrange for the insurance.
However, Craig Charlesworth was always very courteous, helpful (and patient!!) and I would certainly use Fleetprices again and recommend them to friends.
With my thanks and best regards,
Ray Elgy
Mr. Elgy
Delivery went well and I've written a positive testimonial on your web site. Very happy with the car - the engine is refined and the dash is a very high quality.
I've already thanked Leo for working so hard and will definitely consider Fleet Prices again in three years time, should I still require a lease car.
Best wishes

Summary. The goal of this review is to examine the events that led to discovery of blood circulation. The Ancient Greeks, including Hippocrates and Galen viewed the cardiovascular system as comprising two distinct networks of arteries and veins. Galen claimed that the liver produced blood that was then distributed to the body in a centrifugal manner, whereas air or pneuma was absorbed from the lung into the pulmonary veins and carried by arteries to the various tissues of the body. Arteries also contained blood, which passed from the venous side via invisible pores in the interventricular septum and peripheral anastomoses. This was an open-ended system in which blood and air simply dissipated at the ends of veins and arteries according to the needs of the local tissue. Blood was not seen to circulate but rather to slowly ebb and flow. This view would hold sway for 15 centuries until 1628 when William Harvey published his momentous 72-page book, On the Motion of the Heart and Blood in Animals. Harvey employed experiment and deductive logic to show that arteries and veins are functionally, if not structurally, connected in the lung and the peripheral tissues, and that blood circulates. The mechanical force of the heart replaced Galen's elusive attractive powers. Ultimately, Galenism would collapse under the weight of Harvey's evidence, and a new paradigm of blood circulation would prevail.

I trust Dr. Kling considering I was just walking by his office while vacationing. I feel comfortable with him. He takes safe approaches, is thorough, knowledgeable, and has made efforts to go above and beyond to truly be a quality doctor and to ensure his patients are well cared for and happy.

I just moved to NY 6 months ago and live in New Jersey. I needed to see a dermatologist and I was referred to Dr. Kling by a very good friend of mine who lives New York and is a patient of Dr. Klings. Making an appointment in Dr. Klings office was a breeze, very friendly and professional staff. On the day of my appointment I was already impressed by his office. Clean, well kept, and like I mentioned friendly, efficient and professional staff. The wait was not bad at all considering I a...view morem a new patient. I met with Dr. Kling and I felt welcome, at ease, very comfortasble with him. He took the time to listen to my concerns and listened and addressed all my questions. His treatment for the condition I came in for was very successful. I am very pleased with dr. Klings professionalism, ethics, knowledge and care. I would definitely recommend Dr. Kling everyone I know.view less
Dr. Kling was very warm and friendly throughout the visit, not rushed and impatient. He took into account my history before diagnosing me and explained the medical terms in a way that was very easy to understand. He also listened to my questions and asked if I had concerns. He ended the visit very politely. I am definitely going back to see him. I am glad I found an awesome physician!
My experience with Dr. Kling has always been satisfactory. He is caring, patient and extremely knowledgeable. I was seeing another dermatologist before and I was not satisfied. It took a long time for my skin condition to improve. With Dr. Klings expertise, experience and knowledge, my skin condition is under control and easier to manage. I have recommended Dr. Kling to many of my friends and family. They too are very satisfied.
I have been going to Dr. Kling for years, very few and in between. Now that I am hitting the mid-40's I have developed adult acne-- they simply disappear once he started txmt. He is fantastic, professional and so knowledgeable. A masters touch....
I am the third person I know who is using Dr Kling and each one sings his praises.
That is not an off the cuff statement... it represents patients who have been in his care for more than 10 years.
To me a relationship with a physician is EVERYTHING and I've been able to always have the time to tell him at my own speed what is really going on.

I came from out of town into the city for my monthly Business meetings, and have honestly been pleasantly surprised with how well things have worked out with Dr Kling.

I found comfort in seeing Dr. Kling after going to different dermatologists. He has very helpful and explained everything to me patiently. I will never see another one again.

His office does not normally take walk ins but I explained I was just visiting. Dr. Kling gave me a prescription for it and it went away and started to get better relatively quick.

Opponents of the bill say the measure is unnecessary and is a violation of their rights. Boerne resident David Now, state lawmakers are Barker, a member of the said the move was spurred to hissing at some Texas snake owners. Legislators are considering a measure to require a permit for anyone who pos-ss, or wants to bring into the state of Texas, any non-native live venomous snake or certain constrictor snakes into the state. Currently, Texas has no restrictions on importing a snake from a foreign country or releasing a snake into the wild. Proponents of the measure, which does not make it illegal to own a non-native Texas Reptile Industry Association', said the bill directly targets a group of law-abiding citizens pursuing their hobby. "This is Texas for God's sake. As long as its legal to ride bulls, jump motorcycles, own guns, race cars - as long as its legal for people to risk their lives, why can't these people?"

World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War byt Max Brooks. SO out of character for me (I'm more of an Austen/Bronte fan) but I'm absolutely loving it.
Also just got an advance copy of the third book in the Vitalis Chronicles by Jay Swanson, "Steps of Krakador." Totally excited to read that once I'm done with my zombies! The first two, "White Shores" and "Tomb of the Relequim" are already out and they're great if you're into fantasy with a good story and interesting characters.

FBR Capital analyst Barton Crockett weighed in on SeaWorld Entertainment (NYSE: SEAS) which is down 29% following weak Q2 results and outlook. The analyst noted that the results featured the company's first acknowledgement of attendance pressures tied to animal activism.
Crockett notes total revenue of $405.2 million, was down 1.5% year-over-year, and missed their $442.5 million estimate for up 7.6% and FactSet consensus of $447.9 million. The attendance increase of 0.3% fell short of the firm's 4.3% estimate. Total revenue per cap fell 1.8% to $61.54, below their forecast for up 3.2%, with admission revenue per capita down 2.5%, versus our estimate for up 3.6%, and FM&O revenue per capita flat, versus their estimate for a 2.5% increase. Adj. EBITDA was $126.1 million, down 0.7% year-over-year, below our $142.4 million estimate, or up 12.1%, and FactSet consensus of $149.2 million. Adj. EPS was $0.41 versus their $0.56 and FactSet consensus of $0.60.
SeaWorld now sees full-year revenue down 6%-7% year-over-year and adj. EBITDA down 14%-16% year-over-year, versus previous guidance for up 2%-4% and up 3%-6%, respectively.
The analyst noted that SeaWorld attributed soft attendance to "a late start to summer for some schools in the company's key source markets, new attraction offerings at competitor destination parks, and a delay in the opening" of Falcon's Fury, the main new attraction at Busch Garden at Tampa, FL. Additionally, for the first time ever, the company acknowledged attendance pressure tied to animal activism, saying "the company believes attendance in the quarter was impacted by demand pressures related to recent media attention surrounding proposed legislation in the state of California."
The firm maintained a Market Perform rating and price target of $37.00.

Named after the David Cronenberg film, this is the blog of former RogerEbert.com editor Jim Emerson, where he has chronicled his enthusiasms and indulged his whims since 2005. Favorite subjects include evidence-based movie criticism, cinematic form and style, comedy, logical reasoning, language, journalism, technology, epistemology and fun. No topic is off-limits, but critical thinking is required.
Here's Adam Curtis's six-and-a-half-minute documentary segment on how, over the last 50 (75?) years or so, we have become a culture of increasingly paranoid weirdos. (Satirical, too.) It reminded me of "The Power of Nightmares: The Rise of the Politics of Fear" (2004), the essential documentary about the politics that led up to 9/11, and how they continued afterwards. And then I realized why: They're both Adam Curtis films! From the intro to "Power of Nightmares":
In the past, politicians promised to create a better world. They had different ways of achieving this, but their power and authority came from the optimistic visions they offered their people. Those dreams failed and today people have lost faith in ideologies. Increasingly, politicians are seen simply as managers of public life, but now they have discovered a new role that restores their power and authority. Instead of delivering dreams, politicians now promise to protect us: from nightmares. They say that they will rescue us from dreadful dangers that we cannot see and do not understand. And the greatest danger of all is international terrorism, a powerful and sinister network with sleeper cells in countries across the world, a threat that needs to be fought by a War on Terror. But much of this threat is a fantasy, which has been exaggerated and distorted by politicians. It's a dark illusion that has spread unquestioned through governments around the world, the security services and the international media.

[IMAGE]MET2Operator-Money-2.jpg[/IMAGE]On Jan. 20, at the United Motorcoach Association's (UMA) 2011 Motorcoach Expo in Tampa, Fla., METRO Magazine presented its annual Motorcoach Operator of the Year award to Todd Holland, president and owner of Colorado Springs, Colo.-based Ramblin Express.
The award is given to an individual who has made significant contributions to his or her own organization as well as the industry. This is the twenty-first time that the magazine has handed out this award.
Holland was recognized for his work on the UMA board of directors, as chairman, and on the International Motorcoach Group board of directors. Additionally, Holland was selected for co-founding the Motorcoach Council and his integral role in recruiting many of its founding partners, as well as for his input on financing education sessions given at annual UMA conventions.
Holland began his business as a small casino shuttle service in 1993. The scheduled run grew into a prestigious and diversified operation, serving one of the oldest and largest luxury five-star resorts in the U.S.
Holland is described by industry leaders as an innovator who is known for his forward thinking. His staff has joked with him that his middle name is "change" as he is always finding ways to make his operation and the industry better.
The move marks a first in coaches for AJL International Worldwide Chauffeured Transportation, which enhances its 20-year highly successful business in corporate ground transportation.
Plans to assess the risks associated with improperly maintained or inspected passenger-carrying CMVs by reviewing the effectiveness of existing federal inspection standards that are applicable and considering the costs and benefits of having a mandatory inspection.
Altogether in 2015, there were 1,599 private sector and 542 public sector sales as compared to 1,411 private sector and 355 public sector sales in 2014.
To date, FMCSA has held three public listening sessions on this program and previously received input from its Motor Carrier Safety Advisory Committee.

As soon as we saw Michaels nosebleed on the beach and then the 4 year flash forward, there was not a doubt in my mind what had happened. It was really done beuatifully. It was sad, but really well done. When I saw it I was a bit mad, because they didn't really have to kill him, but it gives the show a much more memorable ending for sure.
It is a lot like the six feet under final. Completely sad, but still a great and beautiful ending.
