Clippers rebound with win over Wolves in Chauncey Billups' return
LOS ANGELES -- Chauncey Billups had no intention of calling it quits in February when his season ended because of a torn left Achilles tendon. He didn't need to come back, but didn't want his stellar NBA career to end that way.
Nine excruciating months later, the five-time All-Star made it back on the court with the Los Angeles Clippers and gave them the spark they needed to beat the Minnesota Timberwolves 101-95 on Wednesday night.
"I still have a burning desire to win," said Billups, the 2004 NBA Finals MVP with Detroit. "The night I went down, before I even left the locker room, everybody was saying I was retiring. But those were people who didn't know me and my fabric and where I'm from.
"I could understand why they would say that," he added. "I mean, I'm 35, I've pretty much done it all, made a good living for myself and my family, and did everything I wanted to do. So why would I come back? But that's just not how I'm cut, man. I wasn't going to go out like that -- not to prove everybody wrong, but for my own self."
Billups, beginning his 16th season, had 7 points and 3 assists in 19 minutes as the Clippers ended a four-game losing streak. The Clippers outscored Minnesota 49-44 while he was on the floor.
"I knew this day was going to come, but I didn't know it was going to happen before the year ended," said backcourt mate Chris Paul, who had 23 points and 11 assists. "I talked to him that night after he got injured, and a lot of people in this league thought it was over for him. But not him. We're too much alike. He wasn't going out like that, so it was great to see him back out there. I'm just glad he isn't in a suit anymore."
Billups, who was replaced in the starting lineup at shooting guard by Willie Green for the Clippers' first 14 games, got their first basket on a 3-pointer from the top of the key 42 seconds after the opening tip. It was his only basket of the game in five attempts. All of his points came during his first stint on the court, which ended with 6:06 left in the opening quarter.
"I was just so excited to be back after such a long time," Billups said. "I've only played full court like three times since the injury, so knowing that, I'm trying to be patient with myself. It's going to take a little while. I got back pretty far ahead of schedule. To be honest, I was going to be back before this, but there were a couple of small setbacks, which was expected, because I had to recalibrate my body for playing an intense level of basketball."
He averaged 15.0 points and 4.0 assists in 20 games last season after the Clippers claimed him when he was waived by the New York Knicks through the amnesty clause.
"There's nothing like a real live game," he added. "I'm sure I'll be sore in the morning, and I'm pretty sure it'll be like that for the first week or two. It's kind of like the way guys are the first few days of training camp."
Blake Griffin, who had career lows in points (four) and field goals made (one) during Monday night's 105-98 home loss to New Orleans, had 18 points and six rebounds. Caron Butler, who scored 33 points in that game and set a franchise record with a career-high nine 3-point baskets, missed his first five shots and finished 1-for-8 with two points in 24 minutes.
Kevin Love had 19 points and 12 rebounds for Minnesota and is averaging 23.0 points and 15.6 boards in five games since returning from a broken right hand he sustained in the preseason. In January at Staples Center, he hit a buzzer-beating 3-pointer to send the Clippers to a 101-98 loss.
Alexey Shved had 17 points off the bench for the Wolves, who outrebounded the Clippers 52-35 -- including 21 from the offensive glass. Josh Howard, who signed with Minnesota as a free agent on Nov. 16, made his first start of the season at small forward in Andrei Kirilenko's place and had seven points on 3-for-9 shooting.
The injury-depleted Timberwolves, already missing point guard Ricky Rubio, Brandon Roy and Chase Budinger, didn't have small forward Kirilenko at their disposal either because of back spasms. But they learned several hours before the game that Rubio, recovering from torn ligaments in his left knee, was cleared by doctors for full-contact practices.
The lead changed hands four times in the fourth quarter before Paul's 15-footer put the Clippers ahead to stay at 86-85 with 4:33 to play. DeAndre Jordan swatted Howard's attempted layup out of bounds on Minnesota's next possession, bringing Billups back into the game.
Griffin hit a 21-footer, then made it 90-85 with a slam dunk off a bounce pass from Jordan, who rebounded Billups' missed 3-point shot. Jordan missed two free throws with 2:01 remaining, but made up for it with a three-point play off a fast-break dunk to give the Clippers a 93-88 advantage with 59 seconds left.
"I'm happy with how the team's been fighting," Love said. "We've just been losing some tough ones in the second half, and tonight was no different."
The Wolves cut it to 95-93 on a 3-pointer by Shved, who faked Matt Barnes into the first row of seats before putting up the shot. But Jordan responded with an alley-oop dunk on a lob from Billups with 16 seconds to go, and the Clippers locked it up with four free throws by Paul.
Paul navigated the Clippers to a 57-55 halftime lead with 11 points and six assists, one of them coming on Jordan's dunk in the final second.
Los Angeles trailed by as many as nine points early in the second quarter before pulling ahead 38-36 with an 11-0 run. Lamar Odom, still struggling to get untracked since rejoining the Clippers as a free agent, capped the rally with an offensive rebound of Eric Bledsoe's missed jumper and a putback dunk with 6:47 left in the half. In Monday night's loss, Odom played more than 19 minutes without attempting a field goal for the first time in his 14-year NBA career.
Game notes
Among the sellout crowd was Los Angeles Dodgers manager Don Mattingly and former Clipper Ron Harper. Clippers reserve G Jamal Crawford has converted a career-high 44 consecutive free throws since his last miss on Nov. 3. His previous best streak was 37 in April while playing for Portland. Green, who averaged 18.4 minutes and 6.4 points in his 14 starts during Billups' absence, spent the entire game on the bench.

Another black eye for Black college football? First we shockingly learned of the horrific locker-room conditions that ultimately forced the Grambling football players to stop playing for at least a few days. Then the Winston-Salem starting quarterback recently gets jumped on while in the bathroom at a league-sponsored luncheon, allegedly assaulted by a member of the other team. This forced Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA) officials to cancel not only the championship football game, but the scheduled Winston-Salem-Virginia State volleyball match as well that weekend. "I didn't believe it — I thought it was a joke," admits Terrill Battle, Winston-Salem alumnus, Class of '92. Continue Reading →

Why does Africa pack such appeal for writers? Perhaps it's the wealth of the region, its surface thick with fantastic plants and animals, its underbelly crusted in jewels. Maybe it's because the continent is the cradle of mankind and as such, perpetually nurtures us.
For Micato, the writerly appeal comes from the simple expanse of it all. Africa is a land where it is easy to get lost, in the best sense of the word. In the bush, disconnected from the noise of everyday life, much about the self is cherished, and discovered, and rediscovered.
And this was the appeal for two of our favourite explorers and memoirists as well: Beryl Markham and Ernest Hemingway.
Hemingway: "This Girl Can Write Rings Around All of Us"
Africa for Markham was home. It was the place where she learned to train horses and fly planes; where she fell in love and married not once but three times; and where she faced almost certain death more times than she could count. It was in Africa that she befriended legendary authors such as Karen Blixen (Out of Africa) and Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (The Little Prince), and it was where she became an author of some renown herself, with her startlingly fresh and gripping memoir, West with the Night.
This memoir was admired by none other than Hemingway himself, who wrote:
"Did you read Beryl Markham's book, West with the Night? …She has written so well, and marvellously well, that I was completely ashamed of myself as a writer. I felt that I was simply a carpenter with words, picking up whatever was furnished on the job and nailing them together and sometimes making an okay pig pen. But this girl… can write rings around all of us who consider ourselves as writers… it really is a bloody wonderful book."
Who Loves Africa More?
Hemingway's own African explorations were characterized by a gruff machismo that serves as a counterweight to Markham's wry humour and exuberance. In the autobiographical Green Hills of Africa, Hemingway, in his trademark serious, short prose, recounts days of hunting elusive kudu in the bush. And because he is there for only for a short time, he yearns to stay:
"All I wanted to do now was get back to Africa. We had not left it yet, but when I would wake in the night, I would lie, listening, homesick for it already." —Green Hills of Africa
Markham, on the other hand, grew up in Kenya from the age of four, and loves Africa in a steadier, less yearning way. In West with the Night, she writes:
"Africa is mystic; it is wild; it is a sweltering inferno; it is a photographer's paradise, a hunter's Valhalla, an escapist's Utopia. It is what you will, and it withstands all interpretations. It is the last vestige of a dead world or the cradle of a shiny new one. To a lot of people, as to myself, it is just home."
Views on Hunting
The writer's thoughts on hunting were also vastly different. For Hemingway, hunting was his sport of choice and a source of pure poetry. For Markham, it was a source of money and the object of some derision.
Markham spent many years of her life piloting hunters high above the countryside, spotting elephants and making impromptu landings. Flying was her passion, and hunting was a funny thing that men did:
"I suppose if there were a part of the world in which mastodon still lived, somebody would design a new gun, and men, in their eternal impudence, would hunt mastodon as they now hunt elephant… At least David and Goliath were of the same species, but, to an elephant, a man can only be a midge with a deathly sting."—West with the Night
Between Markham's irreverence and Hemingway's solemnity, we have a full picture of the glory that is—and has always been—the wilds of Africa. The savannahs, bushveldt, deserts and beaches invite wanderers and dreamers. The people, the animals, the landscape… The very air in Africa has an unparalleled richness and freshness. This land sparked two of the best memoirs the world has ever seen, and we feel quite sure that there are more and better yet to come. Could yours be one? Join us in Micato's Africa and find out…

Mwanza Regional Commissioner (RC) Evarist Ndikilo has ordered the police to arrest Ilemela District Chama cha Demokrasia na Maendeleo (Chadema) Secretary Abel Mwesa and bring him to justice for allegedly cutting off an ear of a guest house attendant.
Lazaro Nolbert (25) had his ear removed allegedly by Mwesa after refusing to give him a room at the guest house.
The RC had to intervene after Nolbert complained to him that although he reported the matter to Mwatex Police Station about three weeks ago and given a police report No. NY/RB/3059/2012, they had refused to bring his assailant to justice.
Speaking to reporters in Mwanza yesterday, the RC said Nolbert was allegedly assaulted on April 26, this year, at 23:00 after refusing to give Mwesa a room at Amani Guest House because the person responsible for doing so was not present.
Ndikilo said Mwesa was accompanied by another person they suspected to be his girlfriend and was offended by Nolbert's response.
He said after a long exchange of words, the Chadema secretary made a call and a few minutes later two young people joined him and started assaulting Nolbert before Mwesa bit Nolbert's ear.
Nolbert, who also attended the press conference, said he was still undergoing treatment at Bugando Referral Hospital.
He said the police had been forcing him to accept 200,000/- as compensation offered to him by Mwesa, who is also Nyambiti hamlet chairman.
Speaking at the same press conference, Mwanza Acting Regional Police Commander Deusdedit Nsimeke said he was not aware of the incident but promised to make a follow-up and take legal action against the culprits.

Chickens stopped laying? It maybe time to turn on the lights for the Chickens. It is a well known fact that as the daylight hours get shorter in the fall and winter months adding artificial lighting can keep your chickens laying. As the days get shorter you will notice a considerable drop in your egg production from your flock of chickens. As an example you will notice that your hens that are only kept under natural daylight hours will lay the majority of their eggs during the spring and summer months. Most pure breeds will stop laying during the winter months.
If you raise the hybrid or sex link strains of chicken you may notice that your chickens will continue to lay fairly well but at a lower rate.
Adding artificial light in the hen house for your chickens is nothing more than tricking their bodies into laying on a ore continuous basis as they have been doing throughout the spring and summer months. Your hens have a gland inside their eye called a pituitary gland. By stimulating the pituitary gland with light there will be a hormone produced that will be carried via the bloodstream to the ovary of the chicken, which sets egg production in motion.
It is therefore possible to give some artificial light to laying birds to 'trick' their bodies into continuing to lay into the darker months.
Adding Artificial Light for your Laying hens
A good sufficient amount of daylight for your hens to continue laying at a fair rate is right around 15 hours.
I like to use a timer myself when adding light in the hen house for my laying hens. I will make sure the light comes on at an early morning time that is giving the laying hens 15 hours of daylight before dark of night sets back in. I have the timer turn the light on just before daylight instead of leaving it on all night or right before they go to bed. I want the day to be as normal as possible for the chickens so adding the light in the mornings instead of at night before they are ready to roost, ensures that my chickens aren't suddenly caught out in the dark when the timer switches the light off. this leaves the chickens out in the dark not having gone through the natural roosting process. I really feel the natural roosting process allowing the hens to get a good natural rest is key and very important to this whole process.
Something you really need to remember is; If you add the light after the daylight hours were already shortened and you get your hens are laying well once again, the light hours. Make sure you keep the lighting added to their mornings to keep their daylight hours constant to prevent your chickens from going into moult, or a decrease in production once again.
Amount Of Light To Use In The Hen House!
You do not need to use a bright bulb inside the chicken coop for illumination. If you open the door at night when the light is on and can just clearly see the hens feed when standing over the feeder, you should be good to go. I usually just use a soft white or soft yellow 25 to 60 watt bulb. I find this is sufficient for good continuous laying of eggs.

- Perfect for Hiking to Farmer's MarketReview by My in NH
My husband and I use these packs to walk to the Farmers Market in Chicago. We walk 4 miles round trip in the city with them to the Farmer's Market twice a week and they are PERFECT for transporting food. I also use them to go grocery shopping in the city in the winter (or any time I don't want to get the car out -- which is a lot -- we live in a congested area). They're great for urban living. I've given two as gifts and people are always asking us about them. (Posted on 8/17/2012)
- Great for Gathering Kindling WoodReview by My in NH
I use basket to carry kindling from woodshed (or forest floor) to house for woodstove/fireplace. I have the 24" basket. Straps are too short for this tall basket. Hence, I cannot carry my basket on my back because of bulky winter coat. Kindling collection area is away from the house and I must wear heavy coat because it can be very cold in NH. Can you send me longer straps? I bought the basket many years ago and am tired of "making do" with other means of carrying kindling to pack basket on back porch. I'd like to "handle" the kindling once in the woods or woodshed with pack basket on my back. Thanks. Otherwise, it's a great, sturdy basket. My grandson loves it too!

The Bounty Hunter Arc spans on episodes 159 and 160 of the Naruto anime. This arc is preceded by the Curry of Life Arc and is followed by the Land of Birds Arc.
When word that a notorious thief known as Gosunkugi of the Land of Stone was making his way towards the Land of Fire reached Konoha, Tsunade assigned Naruto, Kiba, and Hinata to capture the man. Along their way, they met a bounty hunter by the name of Sazanami who was also after Gosunkugi. After quickly dispatching Naruto and his friends, Sazanami managed to find Gosunkugi but was quickly defeated. He was saved by Konoha shinobi. It was later while treating the man's wounds that Naruto and his team found out the man was actually another wanted man by the name of Tokichi. Tokichi explained that he was framed for murdering a family that Gosunkugi actually killed. Deciding to help Tokichi clear his name, they worked together track down Gosunkugi again. Gosunkugi and Tokichi himself were captured by another bounty hunter and handed over to the authorities. The bounty hunter was an honourable man and helped clear Tokichi's name. For Naruto and the others, this meant they failed their mission as it someone else captured Gosunkugi.

Waterloo, IL (KSDK) - As he excused them for the day, Judge Milton Wharton told the jury to pack a bag, bring a tooth brush and prepare for the possibility of a long day at the Monroe County courthouse on Wednesday. The prosecution rested its case against Chris Coleman Tuesday after seven days of testimony and evidence.
Coleman is accused of strangling his wife Sheri and sons Garett and Gavin in their Columbia, Illinois home nearly two years ago.
Prosecutors say he did it to be with his mistress and hoped to get away with it by sending himself and his family death threats related to his job as televangelist Joyce Meyer's bodyguard.
The state concluded its case by calling a second expert who said emailed threats to Coleman were sent from his laptop.
Jurors also heard from hand writing and linguistics experts. They testified that there are similarities between the threats and writing samples from Chris Coleman -- including the spray painted messages left inside the Coleman home the morning of the murders.
Defense attorney Bill Margulis was also able to get Illinois State Police hand writing expert Lindell Moore to admit that he could probably find similarities between the attorney's hand writing and the un-natural style of writing with spray paint.
Paint experts said RustOleum brand "Apple Red" spray paint was used to vandalize the home. And a Columbia police officer said she tracked Coleman's purchase of that paint to a south county hardware store three months before the murders.
Through cross-examination the defense pointed out no paint was ever found on Chris Coleman and no paint can was recovered.
Earlier in the day Purdue University Professor of Computer Forensics Marcus Rogers said the IP address on Coleman's laptop matched up with emails sent from an email account titled firstname.lastname@example.com.
Rogers said it was his opinion that someone sat down at Coleman's laptop, turned it on, created the email account and sent the emails.
The defense asked Rogers if someone could have done it remotely.
Rogers said it has to be physically turned on by a person, and that portion, cannot be done remotely.
The defense also asked Rogers if a virus could have allowed someone to hack into the computer and send the emails.
Rogers said he has reviewed 2011 virus protection software and he said he did not believe any virus could have done that and that he stands by his opinion.
The defense pointed out several user accounts were assigned to Coleman's laptop, but Rogers said the email address firstname.lastname@example.com and the emails were sent from Chris Coleman's username.
Hofstra University Linguistics Professor Dr. Robert Leonard said there were similarities between the threats and documents Coleman wrote in the past. He said Coleman often reverses the placement of apostrophes in words. Coleman often wrote "'dont' and not 'don't.'" The same mistake was found in one of the threatening emails, according to Dr. Leonard.
He said many of the threats began with the same expletive and that it was very uncommon when it was compared to a database of threats the FBI has. Dr. Leonard said less than one percent of the 4,400 threats in the database began with that same expletive.
The defense brought up that FBI Agent Andre Simons looked at the threats on July 21, 2010 and said he could not form an opinion about the level of uniqueness about the threats.
A handwriting expert was also expected to testify in the murder trial for the prosecution.
The prosecution is trying to link Coleman to spray painted messages found inside the family's Columbia, Illinois home on the day Sheri Coleman, and their two sons, Gavin and Garett, were murdered.
Prosecutors believe Coleman wrote those messages to cover his tracks in the murders and make it seem like someone who didn't like him working for televangelist Joyce Meyer did the killings.
Some of the messages said "You paid for it" and "I saw you leave."
The defense claims someone murdered the three members of the Coleman family while Chris Coleman was at the gym. They said he left for the gym at 5:43 a.m. on May 5, 2009. Coleman claims he returned an hour later and they were dead.

What's a Better Natural Male Enhancer: VigRx Plus or Zenerx?
July 5th, 2012 by admin
Here's my review of a couple of male enhancement products called Vigrx and Zenerx. Both of these natural male enhancers contain herbs that have been known to help men overcome erectile dysfunction. Sexual dysfunction is a very frustrating condition when men can't achieve or keep an erection hard enough for intercourse. This can really hurt a relationship.
Herbs can help men produce more testosterone, among other things. This is a very important sex hormone that peaks when males are in their teens. That's why men excel at sports and sex when they are younger. All men remember the hardness and durability of their erections when they were teenagers. But can male enhancers like VigRx Plus really help men regain the sexual potency of those earlier years?
The answer is yes, probably. Most men suffering from erectile dysfunction will benefit from penis pills with good, pure herbal ingredients. But it's also important to exercise and eat right, of course. The key is to keep blood flow reaching all parts of the body. Blood filling the penis is what causes erections. The best male enhancement products will enlarge blood vessels so hard erections can be achieved.
The thing I don't like about male enhancers like Zenerx is that they promise penis enlargement as well. I don't believe that herbs can make your penis bigger. So when a company claims penis enhancement from herbs I begin to doubt their reputation. Male pills can help sexual desire and sexual performance, but not size. If you want to make your penis bigger you have to use a penis extender. The best one is called SizeGenetics.
Now if you're interesting in producing more semen, or cum, then you need to try a product called Volume Pills. These penis pills will help you increase ejaculation. They are filled with special herbs that help your body produce the ingredients for ejaculate. It's not some kind of magic. Porn stars use these types of products all the time. Another product that increases seminal fluid is called Semenax. Both of these products will help you with your ejaculation volume.
I believe that most male enhancement reviewers, such as David Corn, would recommend VigRx Plus over Zenerx. If they don't allow you perform sexually the way you think you should, you can always get your money back. But I think you'll experience greater sexual satisfaction and mind-blowing orgasms with Vigrx, so give it a try.

Maloja AnitaM. Freeride Jersey - Long-Sleeve - Women's $0.00
It can be easy to get lost in the sea of drab jerseys and armor lined up at the lift house. The Maloja AnitaM. Women's Long-Sleeve Freeride Jersey not only stands out, it does so without gaudy look-at-me graphics or cheesy corporate logos.
With five color options, you're sure to match the AnitaM. for a pro look, while Maloja's technical Clint fabric has been specifically developed for aggressive riding. Clint is a densely knitted polyester that's abrasion resistant, so the AnitaM. won't come apart after a brush with rocks or trailside vegetation. Clint may be tough, but it has a soft side as well.
The inner surface is brushed to be comfortable next to your skin. This also increases surface area to help promote perspiration absorption and evaporation. This helps keep your core dry on summertime runs, and warm on the exposed chair rides back up. Maloja also treats the fabric with Polygiene. This fabric treatment neutralizes odor by stopping the growth of bacteria and fungi so you're AnitaM. jersey will be fresh throughout the ride.
The AnitaM.'s cut is semi-fitted to cover low-profile armor with no problem, but it won't snag branches or flap around when desending at speed. The panels are all optimized for the riding position, offering longer, articulated sleeves and a droptail hem. And the seams are all located to avoid interfering with pack straps for a smooth integration.
The Maloja AnitaM. Long-Sleeve Women's Jersey comes in sizes X-Small through X-large, and five colors; Moonless, Hazelnut, Granat, Denim, and Blue Steel.

Anthony Dasher and Radi Nabulsi
Dallas Tex. resident and Stanford commit Ty Montgomery opened the eyes of a lot of recruiting experts when he decided to take in the annual Mark Richt football camp last month in Athens.
The fact he was back in town Tuesday for another visit was even more surprising.
But according to the three-star receiver, there was plenty he still wanted to see.
"I like the school a lot and wanted to know more about it," Montgomery said upon leaving campus. "This time, I wanted to learn about the academic aspect rather than the football aspect; see what the school could offer me there."
Considering he's committed to Stanford, one of nation's higher bastions of academia, that should come as no surprise.
He was impressed with what he saw.
"Georgia is actually very strong in academics. They take a lot of pride in academics. I like their APR rating, which is very high. They graduate players, they get their players on track to graduate early and on time and a lot of them come back to graduate school."
Montgomery, who has a reputation as a fluid route runner, stood out during the Mark Richt Camp, earning an offer almost on the spot.
The 6-foot-2, 202-pounder has been clocked at under 4.5 in the 40-yard dash.
Montgomery laughs that he's still not sure why Georgia has become such an attractive option.
"Honestly, I don't know how it came about. It really came out of nowhere for this school," he said. "Obviously, I'm still committed to Stanford but I wanted to check out Georgia to see what they have to offer."
Tuesday's five-hour visit taught him some other aspects about the program that he didn't know before.
"Prior to coming I didn't realize how strong In the Christian faith it was. Obviously, Coach Richt is very open about his faith, but I didn't know the team was like that," he said. "A lot of the coaches are strong in their faith; they pray before workouts. The Christian Athlete organization they have here surprised me, I didn't know they had that. That and their academics was surprising."
Although much of Tuesday's return trip was spent talking to Georgia's academic people, he said he did spend time with Bulldog receivers coach Tony Ball and chatted briefly with A.J. Green, Aron White, Caleb King and Quintin Banks.
Montgomery said he's also spoken by phone to current Bulldog commit Christian Conley and hopes to speak more with Justin Scott-Wesley, who was committed to Stanford before de-committing to pledge his intentions to Georgia last May.
"I'd really like a chance to talk to him," Montgomery said. "I'd really like to hear why he decided to de-commit from Stanford to come here."
The Bulldogs aren't the only school Montgomery is still considering.
He's also looking into Cal, a school whose academic and athletic program he also holds in high regard.
Montgomery plans on getting back to Georgia again.
He told UGASports that he plans on taking an official visit sometimes during football season. It's an opportunity he simply can't pass up.
"I haven't decided when I'm going to come yet, but I will come," Montgomery said. "Everybody wants me to see a Bulldog game. Sanford Stadium seats over 92,000 every single game, so it's going to be a great experience whether I decide to sign or not. I've just got to go."
Montgomery, who also boasts offers from Baylor, California and UCLA, said he won't mind leaving the state of Texas to begin his collegiate career.
"My mom has told me to go anywhere I want to go, just to follow my heart and go wherever the Lord takes me," he said. "She said for me not to feel held back; just go where I want to go." ...More... To continue reading this article you must be a member. Sign Up Now!

How To Use Energy Management Systems to Track Power and Negotiate Better Prices
This potential for extreme market volatility is causing all providers and users of energy to focus on managing demand to avoid the pitfalls of doing business on the spot market. Energy providers are partnering with their largest users to assist with peak-period usage management and to identify methods of reducing/controlling peak demand in order to avoid the potentially catastrophic financial impact of buying power on the spot market. The largest commercial customers of the energy provider have incentives to manage peak usage and not exceed certain thresholds, as prices for peak hour energy usage beyond those thresholds ratchet up in a volatile fashion, resembling the volatility of the spot market.
The commercial customer bears a significant economic risk if they exceed critical thresholds. In order to reduce these risks, the customer must have a plan to limit utilization instead of incurring spot market pricing. By having a plan to shut down non-essential assets, or switch to alternate energy sources such as generators, the end user can avoid spot market risks. Enterprise Energy Management (EEM) systems can provide all of the information necessary to prepare such a plan and can monitor real-time usage, alarming when plan execution is necessary.
The foundation of an EEM system is an integrated set of control systems, meters, monitoring devices and data points. The database and software portion of an EEM system should include the following capability:
- Store mountains of information and retrieve that information very quickly for analysis purposes
- Maintain a real-time load profile
- Provide sophisticated usage information for activity-based costing down to the lowest metered level
- Incorporate reference data from external sources (a reference module) such as utility bills, schematics, contract utility rates, process information, weather information and live information feeds from the internet
- Generating billing for individual users and departments
The Foundation
In order to begin to understand the demands for energy throughout a business and manage the usage effectively, it is necessary to capture the utilization information at the sub-meter level. In many cases, individual machines require a dedicated meter in order to measure and report usage at the lowest level of material energy usage.
In addition to monitoring energy usage at the lowest level of material usage, large operations environments should have control systems in place to allow for automatically or remotely switching to alternate sources of energy during peak demand periods. In addition, the control system could remotely shutdown equipment when it is left on during non-business hours and for remote power-interruption in the event of a peak-demand emergency. Of course, power interruption would only occur during execution of a well thought out peak energy conservation plan.
The EEM system foundation also includes data points that can help analyze usage, measure the rationality of usage and compare current usage to other similar periods (with respect to weather, production rates, etc.). It is essential to have as many relevant data points as possible in order to monitor usage on a real-time basis and make objective observations and management decisions in a dynamic fashion.
The Database and Software
The database of an EEM system should be a real-time database capable of capturing, and analyzing many data points and storing the data accurately in a very efficient manner. The database should be able to manage the stored data in a distributed fashion to allow endless historical archiving. In addition, data retrieval rates should be very fast to facilitate real-time analysis.
The EEM system software must be capable of maintaining a load profile and comparing that load profile to process data or other relevant reference data. This capability allows management to analyze usage relative to the activities that drive energy usage and identify illogical trends in usage relative to these activities. The load profile is compiled from historical data within the EEM database; it is used as a base line to adjust current energy needs and can be used to predict future requirements. This load profiling must have the capability to create an up-to-the-minute picture of a facility's energy usage by month, week or day. The load profile should be down to the lowest sub-meter level. A load profile is also used to identify inefficient processes and identify non-critical loads that can be shed or shifted to avoid peak demand charges. Last, but not least, the load profile is critical to the energy contract negotiation process and it can be used to verify compliance with utility contracts. Exhibit A is an example of a profile trend.
Sophisticated usage reporting capability is a requirement of any EEM software. The application must be able to produce energy costs down to the lowest metered level for cost accounting purposes throughout the manufacturing environment and for allocating costs to administrative departments. The reporting capability should apply to real-time information and historical information. This gives management the information they need to identify consumption patterns, set benchmarks and compare current consumption to prior periods. Usage inefficiencies can be identified real-time with this reporting capability.
In addition to reporting on activity captured from all monitoring devices, the EEM software should include a reference module with the capability of incorporating other data relevant to management and analysis. The reference module can include data from many disparate sources. Utility bill information, fed electronically from the provider, can facilitate automatic reconciliation of billed usage. Billing inaccuracies will be identified very easily using this process. Exhibit B is an example of invoicing and analysis that can be prepared using an EEM system.
Facility schematics (from the CAD drawings of the facility) are valuable for correlating meter data with physical locations, enabling operations and security personnel to pinpoint illogical usage; for example, usage at points in a building that are not occupied. Storing utility contract rates is necessary in order to accurately determine costs for allocation purposes and for reconciling the energy invoices from the provider. Historical weather data and a live feed from the Internet can be correlated with energy usage to improve the accuracy of load profiling and to enhance real-time analysis. Real-time spot-market energy prices can be monitored via an Internet feed in the resource module, making this critical information available to managers facing a peak demand crisis.
The benefits of an EEM system are not just focused on large companies with astronomical energy usage. Small companies are benefiting from installing EEM systems as well. The knowledge provided by an EEM system can help a small company understand exactly what drives the company's energy usage and unnecessary energy usage can be isolated. Information included in the company's load profile can improve its negotiating position when making energy purchasing commitments. On average, if the company can save 5% of it's energy costs by using an EEM system, the payback on such a system is less than 12 months.
The energy market-pricing model rewards companies that plan and manage their energy utilization. Conversely, a company that fails to manage its' utilization will bear the astronomical cost of purchasing excess energy at spot market prices. Energy utilization planning, management and control can yield significant savings for large and small companies alike. Regardless of size, energy costs are a significant percentage of many companies' operating costs. Implementing an EEM system is the most efficient and effective way for a company to monitor and control these costs, thereby minimizing them.
A complete EEM system will provide all of the necessary usage and cost information required to make intelligent management decisions and minimize energy costs. Such a system will enable management to identify usage reduction opportunities, negotiate optimal prices for energy, and plan for alternate energy source utilization in order to avoid spot market costs. Integrated with a sophisticated control system, EEM systems can actually shed or shift excess energy usage in order to avoid peak usage spot market rates. All businesses with significant energy costs should deploy an EEM system. In many cases, the payback period will be less than one year.

When many guys get into their 30s and 40s, they notice that they're out of shape – and start worrying about death. I have started to notice the middle age spread happening to my body and I'm not thrilled about it but, I'm not overly frightened either.
Of course some others don't worry about their health... they make the most of the last half of their life by buying a Corvette and sleeping with their secretary, I'm not considering this as an option either... but I digress.
Those who actually do something about their declining physical health by exercising are admired.
Unfortunately, a new study says this might be the exact wrong thing to do – and might lead to a premature death.
Doctors are finding that guys who get into excessive, vigorous, and unsupervised exercise habits can seriously hurt their hearts and increase the risk of cardiac arrest in a big way.
The key is to build up to vigorous exercise slowly, letting your body get more and more used to all the work you're doing.
So I will approach this in the manner to which I was intending... very slowly! I can hear the doctors words now: "Don't just jump in and run a marathon next weekend Eric, your heart might not be ready for it." Thanks Doc... I don't intend to.

Leave your mark on Ryerson Athletics and Recreation!
Help us build the future now!
Contact us to discuss your giving options to the Department, or consider making a gift online today by clicking "give now".
Thank you for your generous support.
Over the past year Ryerson Athletics and Recreation has established a new vision for its program. The new mission champions a spirit of belonging, pride and excellence, through wellness education, recreational pursuits and elite competition, which invigorates the student body, enriches the academic experience and develops the whole student.
The recent announcement of the expansion of the Athletics Department to include Maple Leaf Gardens – hailed as one of Canada's iconic buildings in the sport community, brings not only a new revitalized facility, it also brings new opportunities for the student athletes at Ryerson.
As Ryerson Athletics and Recreation grows to become one of the best programs in Canada it needs support and partnerships to help our student athletes meet their goals. Ryerson greatly appreciates the generous support shown by our alumni, friends, and staff and now at this critical time we need that support to take our programs to new levels.
Your gift to our Department supports student athlete's academic programs, subsidizes travel expense and community outreach including our Rising Rams Program where student athletes mentor secondary school youth. In addition to this funds are used to recruit top student athletes, maintain support staff for all programs and develop an elite coaching staff to guide our programs to excellence.
Devon Lord Brooks Award Fund
Devon Lord Brooks was a dedicated student and a passionate athlete. Devon passed away unexpectedly at the age of 27. She was at work on two additional degrees, and was a competitive national-level figure skater and power cheerleader in her high school and undergraduate years. She was also a wakeboarder, a gymnast, and a snowboarder. Devon believed in the unified strength of body, mind and spirit.
This scholarship fund is created in her memory. Recognizing academic excellence, athletic ability and financial need, the fund seeks to encourage the strength of mind, body and spirit that Devon personified.
The Brooks family has a long association with the Ryerson community, and directed the fund to support Ryerson student athletes. Donations made to the Devon Lord Brooks Award will be placed in an endowment fund, creating student awards in her name in perpetuity. It is the first endowed award in Athletics at Ryerson. Eligible candidates are Varsity Athletes who are Ontario residents and full-time students in a Ryerson undergraduate or graduate program.
The generous support of donors to the Devon Lord Brooks Award has taken the fund almost 90% of the way to the Brooks family's goal of a $1 Million endowment. And the fund is already at work supporting promising students.
Donations in memory of Devon Lord Brooks are giving new opportunities to students. Please give generously.

Planning for the Future - Today!
The importance of sports is invaluable and goes much further than the basic answer that "it will keep kids off the streets or off drugs". It also instills lessons that are essential for our graduates to become contributing members of society.
Recent studies validate that athletic participation at every level does not only train functional skills like dexterity and balance but it also promotes the learning of soft skills like taking orders, leadership, teamwork, performing in a regulated system, and socialization. Participation in Athletics can help to form the character of young people because it teaches behavioral habits like motivation, discipline, tenacity, competitive spirit, responsibility, perseverance, confidence, and self-esteem, which cannot always be acquired in the classroom. These behavioral aspects can lead to reduced skipping, increase the willingness to succeed in school, and encourage social interaction with other students, which are associated with higher efficiency of learning because time is used more productively? (Pfeifer, 2007).
Your planned gift will strengthen the long-term financial security of our student athletes. It provides access to health therapy, maintains the best coaches within our community, provide specialty equipment such as braces and training equipment. Your gift will ensure student athletes will have a competitive athletics program which will make our entire University stronger and continue to help attract exceptional students—young people who excel in both athletic and academic competition -- today, tomorrow and forever.
What is Planned Giving?
Planned Giving, often described as "leaving a legacy", is simply planning to make a difference with your gift.
Planned gifts are easy to arrange and can produce attractive benefits such as:
Planned gifts come in many forms and include:
Planned gifts may be expendable -- used to sustain current operations or fund important capital projects or they may also be endowed -- held and invested to generate annual gift income forever.

The Vapid Speedo is a cargo delivery van featured in Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto V.
DesignDespite Vapid being GTA's rendition of Ford, the van resembles a 2003-present Chevrolet Express van but the front and back ends have been slightly altered. The same design is used for the second generation Burrito in GTA V. The badge on the rear reads Vapid ST. The Speedo features various company names, such as Deliver Me Timbers, Easy Lay Carpet, Hello Tailor and Nonna Pina's Restaurant.
The vehicle is quite agile, thanks to its adapted suspension and weightless rear end. Powersliding is quite easy in this vehicle; however, in Liberty City's hilly terrain the Speedo is prone to bouncing about more frequently than other vehicles of its size. The engine is strong, powered by what feels like a high-torque V8 diesel in a rear-wheel drive layout; leading to mediocre acceleration and a reasonable top speed. Anti-lock brakes are an available option, but are not standard. The lack of ABS makes turning and braking simultaneously impossible which is a big problem when slowing down into a 90 degree turn or any type of fast driving or racing.The Speedo is, the after the Burrito, the second-fastest vehicle in the "van" classification, attaining a maximum of 153 mph, but it is the most maneuverable.
Grand Theft Auto VFrom IV to V, the speedo has had a new body shape altogether, looking a bit more up-to-date.
Notable Owners
- Phil Bell owns a Speedo that is used as an escape vehicle in the mission, To Live and Die in Alderney.
- This vehicle cannot be taken to a car wash, but can be resprayed at a Pay 'n' Spray.
- After collecting all thirty cars for Stevie, he may also agree to purchase cars from Niko Bellic, with the Speedo fetching $2,000.
- The two default radio stations in the Speedo are Electro-Choc and Radio Broker.
- Speedo is a nickname to Speedometer.
- Driving a Laundromat Van will cause several Speedo's to spawn, especially at the docks of East Hook in Broker and Tudor and Port Tudor in the State of Alderney.
Company liveries
GTA IV + Episodes from Liberty City
- Can be usually found in the East Hook docks.
- It can be commonly be found in the Acter Industrial Park and Port Tudor areas.
- Used as an escape vehicle in the mission, To Live and Die in Alderney.
Grand Theft Auto V
- Seen around the Grove Street Families area.

INDIANA (www.incnow.tv) - Doctor William Hedrick may soon find out if he can practice medicine again.
He'll appear before the Medical Licensing Board of Indiana later Thursday morning. Officials with the Indiana attorney general's office claim Hedrick's prescribing habits led to the deaths of 7 patients. In the time his license has been suspended, federal agents have raided two of his offices and the Fort Wayne police have searched the home of a known associated of his.
No criminal charges have been filed against the doctor.

Two people are recovering after a stabbing Sunday night at a Springs apartment.
Two others have been arrested in connection to the incident.
Residents at the Landmark Terrace apartments overheard a big fight on the third floor around 10 p.m. and called police. When officers arrived on scene, they found a man in the hallway with a large amount of blood on his clothing. He pointed officers to apartment 310.
Officers forced their way into the apartment after those inside refused to answer the door. Several people were inside, but none of them appeared to be victims of any sort of altercation. A large amount of blood was seen inside the apartment.
Just minutes later, officers received word that two people had arrived at Memorial Hospital with several stab wounds. Both were able to describe what led up to the stabbing and who pulled the knife.
Police arrested 18-year-old Daqwan Toussaint on charges of first-degree assault and 23-year-old Brittany Cranmer on charges of accessory to commit first-degree assault.

Now with Select Fire kiln controllers! With a maximum temperature of 2300°F, these kilns are ideal for firing stoneware and porcelain. Exteriors are constructed of welded steel, with a heat and rust-resistant finish.
The high-fire refractory of the firing chamber and its high-temperature insulation keep heat loss at a minimum. Firing time varies from 5 to 8 hours, depending on the size of kiln, firing speed, load, and voltage output.
Lids are specially vented and rest on ceramic fiber rope that encircles the top of the firing chamber for a perfect seal. A sprint-type latch allows lids to expand and contract. All models have spring-balanced lids.
Long-life A-1 Kanthal wire element coils fit into deeply recessed groooves in the firing chamber walls, and can easily be removed when necessary. These top loading kilns are well built and highly recommended for studio or classroom. UL and CSA listed.
5 year manufacturer's warranty.
Electrical Warning — All electrical products have U.S. standard plugs and voltage. Due to damage that can occur when using incompatible plugs, sockets, or converters, Blick does not ship electrical items or accessories outside of North America or to freight forwarders.
Kiln Return Policy— Kilns are
Three Phase Kilns — Three Phase electric power is available in many industrial and institutional buildings, usually with 208V power. Most facilities with Three Phase power also have separate circuits for Single Phase power. Single Phase electric power is the standard alternating current (60 hz) that is available in all homes and offices in North America, usually with 240V power. A single phase kiln can run using Three Phase power with additional equipment and wiring. Where Three Phase power is available, most high amperage circuits (that might be used to run a kiln) will be Three Phase circuits. Although electric motors such as ventilation fans run more efficiently (require fewer watts) on a Three Phase circuit, kiln heating elements do not. However, it is possible to run a Three Phase kiln using a smaller (lower amperage) circuit than would be required for a comparable Single Phase kiln, if power capacity (amperage) is an issue. Three Phase kilns will not run on Single Phase power. Always consult a licensed electrician before installing a high power electric kiln.

Select Fire kiln controllers mean more precise control, greater consistency, and less time monitoring firings. How did we ever live without it!
Set the kiln to fire by temperature or by cone number (Select Fire automatically converts one to the other) at one of three pre-set firing programs — slow, medium, or fast. Use ramp/hold programming to create your own firing profile by selecting up to six segments of temperature change. Hold and store your program for your next firing.
Digital readout displays temperature in Fahrenheit, Centigrade, and shows what program currently is in use. Use automatic delay firing to start up to 99 hours, 99 minutes later. In locations where off-peak electric rates are lower, use delay firing to save on energy costs.

Linda Rodin
When it comes to looking older she says,"First of all it's not easy getting older. It catches up on you all of a sudden. It's definitely more interesting to let yourself go through the process than do a bunch of surgery and get addicted to a face that's not even yours. You can't chase youth. You'll just look older with a face lift." Check out more of Linda's story and her amazing Rodin olio lusso products HERE.
( For those of you who asked about Linda's lip color she is wearing Make Up Forever, #16 pencil, then Make Up Forever lipstick #36. Under both: Fran Wilson's green mood matcher)

what a sylish and beautiful woman.....and love the photography of her and her dog.....I agree totally with her about going the non surgery route.....people who have extreme plastic surgery all start looking like they are related to each other......any individuality is taken away......its kind of like putting plastic covers on your beautiful sofa(like in the 1950's by some).....not wanting any sign of age or blemish to happen.....rather than surgery she keeps herself beautiful thru sleep, diet, weight control and personal style.....love it!!!!!

What a chic lady! I hesitate to say lady because nowadays this automatically implies an age. Ms Rodin is effortless and ageless in her example of living. She could teach us all a thing or two about grace.

YES plastic surgery does lead to getting "addicted to a face that isn't even yours"! Those who run for the botox will end up looking 100% fake and totally ill at ease because they are not comfortable with who they are. Beautiful women embrace their age, put on a lovely lipstick and have fun getting dressed up! Right on Advanced Style!
