Whitney students see the horrors of drunk driving
By: Lauren Weber, The Placer Herald
School takes part in Every 15 Minutes driving under the influence program
Whitney High students received a powerful lesson. They learned the emotional and life-altering consequences of drinking and driving. Every 15 Minutes, a nationwide program that gives students an authentic glimpse into the consequences of driving drunk, without the real-life repercussions, kicked off last Wednesday with a mock crash scene involving five Whitney High School students and two totaled cars. Students gathered in the stadium along Ranch View Drive at the west end of the campus, where the simulated crash began with a screech and a bang – two cars collided on the two-lane street. Thirteen students and one teacher, dressed in all black with painted white faces and hands (known as the living dead), represented the thousands of people killed each year in drunk-driving accidents. Together they lifted the tarp to unveil the crash scene. Senior Johnny Hamner stumbled out of the driver seat of one of the cars to find his best friend, Derek Knutty, sprawled on the hood of the car, ejected through the front windshield. "Oh my God, Oh my God," Hamner said. "Buddy." In the other car, only Macy Lefebvre was conscious in the backseat, blood running down her face. Megan Kincaid, the driver, was facedown on the steering wheel and Mai Smith, the front passenger, lay unconscious. Police arrived on site within seconds, pronouncing Knutty dead on the scene. Ambulance, fire and an emergency chopper arrived shortly after. Firefighters took the Jaws of Life to the green Kia, removing the car's roof in order to get to Kincaid and Smith. Both were lifted onto gurneys: Kincaid was transported to the hospital via ambulance while Smith was airlifted to a hospital where she was later pronounced brain-dead. The smell of beer surrounded the stands as Officer Chris Osborne pulled out three empty, fresh containers of beer from Hamner's car. The crowd was silent except for sniffles and sighs as they watched their fellow classmates' conditions. Knutty's mother was called to the scene of the accident where she was asked to identify her son's lifeless body. He was then shifted to a gurney — his black Nike shoes off and a toe tag placed on his left foot — as he was zipped into a body bag and transported to the morgue. "If you knew Derek … he was probably up to something," a shaky-voiced Principal Debra Hawkins said. Emotions ran high after the simulated crash scene for some students. "One of the girls is my best friend," Senior Gianna Polli said after the simulation. Polli and fellow students Kaitlyn Sanviel and Alexis Houdek all said seeing Derek's mom was the hardest part. The demonstration was especially moving because the students didn't know the mock crash and Every 15 Minutes program was even scheduled. "It's pretty tough because it was like she was just there last night," Polli said of her best friend Kincaid. The following morning's events were equally, if not more, emotional for many students. A mock memorial service was held to remember the students who were killed by drunk drivers. Students gathered in the school gymnasium, where a casket was carried in, followed by the "living dead" dressed in all black. Each placed a single red rose on the casket. "We will deeply miss the smiles they have from ear to ear … they will forever be a part of the Whitney family," said Jason Feuerbach, master of ceremonies. "A split-second decision … a decision that could have been stopped … a decision that killed students." Parents of the living dead sat to the side of the stage, boxes of tissues among them. Jake Joslin and Brad Stark, Lincoln High School graduates, told the true story of their drunk-driving experience, which killed one of their best friends. For Joslin and Stark, it was an opportunity for the Whitney High students to learn from their mistakes with hopes that it wouldn't happen to them. It was obvious the program had a strong impact on the five students involved in the crash as they tearfully shared their personal experiences. "This program has affected me so much," Knutty said though tears. "To see my mom come identify my body, to see the pain, it just killed me. As soon as my mom came up, I broke down in tears." Lefebvre admitted to getting in the car with a driver who had been drinking. "It's not a game, it's not funny when you lose someone you love," she said. Students among the living dead read farewell letters to their parents and loved ones and two parents read letters to their "deceased" child. The program concluded with advice from Officer Osborne about choice. "Whether the choice is easy or hard, sometimes you have to make it. You will have to live with whatever choice you make," he said.

Don't mistake Lorenzo's style of early braking, early releasing, to get maximum corner speed with weakness breaking. Lorenzo is one of the top 3 brakers of the grid, together with Dovizioso and Rossi. Pedrosa? Meh!Pedrosa isn't better saving the rear tyre, the Honda just has more traction than the Yamaha. This has been so for the last 3 seasons at least. That traction is the only reason Pedrosa is better out of the corners. Bradl, in his rookie year and on a satellite bike, was also faster out of the corners than Lorenzo. That's the Honda vs. the Yamaha.Lorenzo is one of the most, if not the most, complete riders of the grid. And better than Pedrosa on EVERY SINGLE ASPECT.Period.

Sustainable agriculture is the ability of a farmer to produce food in such a way that the environment and surrounding ecosystem, is unaffected by their agricultural activities. There are a couple of issues that are connected with this form of agricultural activity which are the biophysical issue and social-economic issue. Biophysical is related to the biological activities such as crop rotation, usage of fertilizers and artificial nutrients and the availability of the other resources such as water, wind and sunlight whereas social-economic is concerned with the employment of farmers, the cost of production and total yield.

Well, masses of bashers were queuing up to dish out some bile long before he got a chance to try the bike - Bradley threads would have a lot more posts and 75% or more would be negative.
Seeing as the odds of succeeding are far lower than the odds of failing, its always dead easy to say 'fail' and try to look clever about it. Not so many will fess up & say they were wrong, they'll just slither away.

San Francisco, CA (PRBuzz.com) November 19, 2012 -- Believe it or not, the fragrance you wear may tell others something about you, like the clothing you wear.
Crames says that scent is the most provocative smell to induce memories. The scent you choose is frequently inspired by things, moments, and locations that we remember. It also sends an immediate message to other people.
Most people have one or three favorite fragrances, but choosing one can be stressful considering the abundance of existing scents to choose from, and new ones debuting every season. The fragrance industry, designers, and celebrities use October and November (prime season) to maximize fragrance advertising because this time is the pre-holiday season.
A few tips can help you when looking for a new fragrance.
Marian Bendeth's company is Sixth Scents in Toronto. The company offers personal consultations as well as important fragrance profiling and trend analysis to the fragrance industry.
She says, "When choosing a fragrance for yourself, don't wear any as you want to know how the scents you test smell on your skin. You can test as many as three or four fragrances by positioning one on each wrist and one on each forearm."
The scent should be allowed to open for at least a half hour and do not spray on clothing. It is about seeing how the middle and base notes of the fragrance evolves, and then how it smells after the initial top fragrance notes dry down.
Lighter fragrances are more in sync with job attire and minimizes overwhelming others in the workplace. Heavier smelling and spicier scents are better in cold weather months. Fragrance is something you wear for yourself, for others, and according to how you feel.
Buying fragrances for others can be tricky. Make sure to choose a fragrance that you think fits their taste, or one that they are already familiar with.
Sue Phillips, a New York-based global fragrance expert, helps companies like Tiffany, Avon, and Elizabeth Arden develop fragrances and says fragrance is no longer just for the wealthy. In addition, scented household products are affordable luxuries that have become popular and sophisticated.

What is a World Heritage Site?
At UNESCO´s general conference in 1972, the World Heritage Convention was adopted to protect the world´s cultural and natural heritage. The convention is an important instrument — not least for developing countries — in their work to protect valuable monuments and settings.
Unesco wants through this convention to draw attention to the most representative objects, and develop effective international cooperation to guarantee as far as possible that the world´s cultural and natural heritage will be protected and passed on — in good shape — to future generations.
One of the aims of the convention is to list cultural monuments and natural features whose protection is valuable to people all over the world. Objects put on the World Heritage List must be of particular universal value. Objects which Unesco adds to the World Heritage List are termed World Heritage Sites. There are 14 World Heritage Sites in Sweden, and as of 2007 there were 851 World Heritage Sites in the world.
The convention demands that affiliated countries should have the legislation, organisation and education to guarantee that the cultural and natural values in a country can be protected and preserved. For an object to be added to the World Heritage List, the country in question must guarantee that the object will be protected. Affiliation to the convention also means a responsibility to respect World Heritage Sites located in other countries´ territory and to contribute economically to the maintenance of objects in countries that lack of funds to do this. Sweden signed the convention in 1985.

Say you're cooking in your dorm room when you get a text from a friend. Maybe you've got too many electronics plugged into one power strip. Perhaps you leave a laptop on all the time. No big deal right? Wrong. Any of these situations could potentially be deadly.
A fire in a dorm room is dangerous, not just for the occupant but for all of his or her neighbors. To educate you about fire safety, UAB will present a dramatic demonstration of how fast a mocked-up dorm room can burn at 2 p.m. Monday, Oct. 17, 2011, on the lawn of UAB's Rast Hall, 1530 11th Ave. South. The UAB Department of Occupational Health and Safety will conduct the burn, with the assistance of Birmingham Fire and Rescue, who will extinguish the blaze and share fire safety literature with students. The event will include free pizza, soft drinks and T-shirts while they last.
Whether on campus or off, college students all have one thing in common, along with most everyone else: their rooms have furniture, mattresses, clothes, books and paper, items that are all combustible, says Mike Boyle, UAB campus safety officer with the Department of Occupational Health & Safety. It is the contents of the room, not the structure itself, which produce deadly smoke when burned. A fire can develop rapidly, Boyle says.
"Also the popularity of electronic items such as laptops, tablets, stereos, mp3 players, microwave ovens, toasters, phone chargers and other items that make it more likely that electrical outlets will be overloaded, which is a potential cause of fire," Boyle says. Many fires are caused by cooking left unattended, and distractions such as a phone call, text message or television program can cause disaster.
About 3,750 fires occur in dormitories and student housing across the nation each year, according to National Fire Protection Agency statistics, Boyle says. Since 2000, 106 college students have died in fires in Greek housing or in off-campus housing within three miles of a university. Cooking, candles, smoking or electrical causes are among the most common reasons for accidental fires.

Neukom, Optimism Out; Baer, Pessimism In
7 comments:
He was let go because he made decisions without consulting his bosses (the executive board), not because he spent money. It's basic chain-of-command in large corporations.ReplyDelete
It's what he was spending it on that disturbs me. Player payroll and team infrastructure... the board isn't behind that? That's scary. That tells me they're moving back to a frugal mindset, and I don't like it. At all.ReplyDelete
No one knows if the board is or isn't behind spending on payroll or infrastructure. It doesn't matter if they are or aren't in regards to letting go a CEO when he allegedly didn't ask them how they want to spend their money.ReplyDelete
Here you go: "According to sources close to the team, as well as the Mercury News report, the issue at hand was Neukom's communication with the Giants' executive committee."ReplyDelete
Read more: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/giants/detail?entry_id=97570#ixzz1XywAIWAB
I don't buy that. Communication issues can be fixed without taking the drastic step of firing him. Purdy's article spelled it out for me: they wanted to pocket the money they made during their playoff run, and Neukom spent it. They can spin it as a communication issue, but that was the driving force.ReplyDelete
You may be right! Maybe I'm being too optimistic... Only time will tell I guess.ReplyDelete
With all due respect I don't believe that communication issues are the problem. Maybe the board didn't like hearing about things on the news first, but if you hire a guy to run the team you can't then expect him to run every relatively minor expenditure by the board. If he offers a FA $126 million then obviously they should be informed and consulted but Neukom didn't do anything like that. To me, it sounds like the board wants to run the team including every major or minor decision but wants to have a frontman so they stay mostly anonymous. I don't think they can have it both ways: either take a public role and run the team or hire someone else to do it and judge him based on the success or failure of his decisions and not how quickly he informs you of them.ReplyDelete
How often is the board all in one place and easily notified of an impending decision? If Sabean is negotiating with a FA or a trade partner and has to make a quick decision is he really supposed to notify the CEO who then notifies all 10 members of the executive board plus the other 20ish minority investors? That model will never work. By the time everyone has been notified of an impending decision it will be too late and the FA or trade target will end up elsewhere. Makes you wonder if there are players the Giants have lost because they spent time notifying 30+ owners before getting the deal done.

I wrote a piece analyzing the results of CBC's questions about First Nations people in Canada for the Urtak blog. Enjoy it here.Read More
As we walked along 27th St., headed back to Urtak HQ after lunch, the team and I were talking startups. As Eric Ries argues, when a startup changes direction but stays grounded in what they've learned, that's called a pivot. What we were talking about was whether we as startups are pivoting, or whether we are actually travelling.
In basketball, a player who has picked up her dribble and and planted herself can continue to pivot off of one foot. But if she moves the other foot she has walked with the ball – travelling. It's a rule violation, and her team loses possession.
The term pivot is thrown around pretty loosely in the startup world, which might be in part because it is quite vaguely defined. After all, in life, we almost always stay grounded in what we learn regardless of what new direction we choose to take.
Steve Blank, another guru of entrepreneurship, contends that, "a startup is a temporary organization designed to search for a repeatable and scalable business model." Pivoting would thus appear an absolute requirement for any startup, no matter how successful – just think of the evolution of Facebook since 2004.
What then is the difference between pivoting and travelling? Venture capitalist Rob Go, in an excellent article, argues that a travelling violation means selling an entirely different product to entirely different customers. This is very close, but not satisfactory. For instance, it could be argued that with the iPhone, and especially the iPad, Apple in fact sold entirely different products to entirely different customers. So it's not just about the product and market. What's missing?
Mark Pincus of Zynga nails it. In an interview with BusinessWeek, he says that while a company should keep trying different strategies, what should never change is your vision. If Apple sold bicycles, we can imagine what they might look like. Beautiful, sleek, and definitely fixed-gear.
If you've changed your product, your target market, and your vision, you haven't pivoted – you've travelled. But then again, sometimes you get away with it! Just ask Instagram, or LeBron James.Read More

There are nearly three hundred registered sex offenders living in El Paso County, and all are required to stay current on information so you and officials know where they are.
Usually this is done throughout the year; this is the first time the sheriff's office has condensed it into a three-day period.
Since Tuesday, El Paso County Sheriff's officials have knocked on almost 270 doors of El Paso County sex offenders, verifying addresses, phone numbers, and job status.
"We just go through make sure they're complying, and that nothing has changed," said Sgt. Robert Jaworski.
Sergeant Jaworksi says they were able to make contact with all but about fifteen offenders this week. He says most are cooperative, but he still tells his detectives to be careful when approaching their homes.
"Don't ever think a sex offender can't be violent, because I've been through it when they are," said Jaworski.
Two arrests were made during the three-day operation. One on an outstanding warrant, the other because the offender provided false contact information.
You can look up registered sex offenders in El Paso County at: http://shr2.elpasoco.com/sexoffenders/

The Laugh of the Medusa & Jamaica Kincaid
A couple of posts ago, I wrote asking for your help coming up with examples of écriture feminine, Cixous's term for writing associated with the feminine/female, for my lovely Pine Manor student.
In "The Laugh of the Medusa," Cixous writes:
Other suggestions? Come on, I know there are some literary folks out there!
In "The Laugh of the Medusa," Cixous writes:
It is impossible to define a feminine practice of writing, and this is an impossibility which will remain, for this practice can never by theorized, enclosed, coded . . . it will always surpass the discourse that regulates the phallocentric system . . .That said, she explains:
Women must write through their bodies, they must invent the impregnable language that will wreck partitions, classes, and rhetorics, regulations and codes, they must submerge, cut through, get beyond the ultimate reserve-discourse . . . Such is the strength of women that, sweeping away syntax, breaking that famous thread (just a tiny little thread, they say) which acts for men as a surrogate umbilical cord . . .The other night, it hit me: Jamaica Kincaid! Maybe not all her work, but definitely the stories in her slender, beautiful collection At the Bottom of the River and also her painful, hypnotic memoir My Brother, about her brother's death in Antigua from AIDS. Just her short story "Girl" might be a wonderful short example of her work in this regard.
Other suggestions? Come on, I know there are some literary folks out there!

Your question got me thinking about how I drawn I am to works which evoke a visceral response. I've just finished Jacqueline Woodson's "Autobiography of a Family Photo." It's written as a series of small snapshots, vignettes, really that breath from Jackie's every pore. The overall effect is evocative and memorable.
Another book is Joan Didion's memoir of loss- "The Year of Magical Thinking." It was so painful yet compelling. I wondered how she was able to write so close to the bone and break through so many personal barriers. At the end, I was grateful for her candor and the courage of her intimacy.June 27, 2008 6:22 PM

An Amazing Barn Makeover
Living in a barn has always intrigued me. Perhaps my Southern Indiana upbringing and grandfather's farm has left some rustic sentiment in my heart, or maybe I just love the idea of exposed beams. Whatever the cause of the obsession, after spotting this recent project from Maxwan Architects (based in The Netherlands), my barn cravings are here to stay.
Although I'm admittedly not much of a chef, the kitchen alone has my heart aflutter. I love the balance of minimal furnishings and visual interest (not to mention the sweet pops of cherry red with those dining room chairs!).
And although the stairways look quite hazardous, the floating concept leaves the space open and airy — the best combination!
Goodbye stables and manure — hello, pretty home!

Help Aquarium keeps heating up
I am at wits end here I cant figure out why aquarium heats up to 80-85 degrees no matter what i set the temp on my heaters. I have tried 3 none seemed to work properly, 1 top fin 300 watt and 2 Aquieon 300 watt. I set to 72-78 on the dial still wants to heat the water to like 85+ degrees what gives.
it is a 55 gallon have 1 canister filter, 1 powerhead , 2 t5 bulbs over the top. Still heats higher even when the lights are off. I am not sure what my problem is. Any ideas maybe 3 bad heaters in a row?
What type of thermometer are you using? Have you tried using a different one, it may be the thermometer and not the heaters? It is possible that you got 3 bad heaters but I do doubt the likely hood of that. I would try a different thermometer or if you are using a digital one replace the battery and see if that makes any difference. :-D
I have used 2 seperate digital cooking thermometers both read 80.4 and the heat i have set down to 74 from 76. But we will see if it kicks on again before it drops to like 78
Yeah I have one on the glass Digital is easier to read. Yeah it is moderately planted some dwarf sag, Lloydiella swords and java moss doing well.... Yeah i have fish just a couple guppys and 7 black skirt tetrtas all seem healthy. But I had a 200 watt no name china ebay heater worked great for about the 4 weeks it took to cycle and add a couple fish. Before this whole problem......
I have had the same issues with heaters before, actually had one that even with it returned all the way down still heated the water more than I liked. It seems that on a lot of the heaters the thermostats are not always correct, so setting the dial to the temp shown on the heater will not always give you your desired temperature. If at the current temperature of 80 if the heater is continuing to cycle on I would adjust it down some more. With there being fish and plants in there I would make sure that I adjusted it a little at a time. Also another thing to keep in mind with a larger aquarium it will take longer for the water to cool down.
The temperature set point on the rheostat is relative but not absolute...meant merely as a guide.
I'd suggest you turn the heater way down, then monitor the temperature. When the temperature comes down to 76-77F, very slowly increase the set point until the heater just comes on. Monitor and make only very slight adjustments only after allowing several hours to stabilize.
So turned it down 74 to last night still sitting strong at 80.1. So it went down a bit.... So I guess all the way down to 68 and see what happens.

NEWARK, NJ - IDT Media' s Digital Production Solutions (DPS) is revitalizing the children's animated series "Monster by Mistake" with new and improved episodes. The "Monster by Mistake" series, first broadcast in 1996, was created entirely with computer generated 3D graphics. The series follows the adventures of an eight-year-old boy named Warren who accidentally gets mixed up in a magic spell that turns him into a blue monster every time he sneezes.
DPS is using its own proprietary software on the show, along with a combination of Discreet 3DS Max and Side Effects Houdini software. The show will be broadcast on Disney Australia, Telemundo in the United States, Super RTL in Germany, Canada's YTV, and the French language VRAC in Canada.
"High-quality 3D animation is becoming more affordable and the need for animated products will continue to grow, both in the United States and abroad," says Jim Courter, IDT's CEO. "Viewers that watch "Monster by Mistake" will be impressed by the visual effects achieved through 3D animation. The lighting and textures of each character and the background effects in 3D truly make the story come alive."
DPS is also currently working on a co-production agreement with Jim Jinkins and David Campbell of Cartoon Pizza, the creators of "Doug," "Stanley" and "PB&J Otter."

in The potting shed
Morning Glyn and Bunny.
Everyone else still snuggled up in bed, then?
Morning forkers,
Up a bit late this morning. Another cold day, but warm monsoon on the way.
Appearing on Sky News shortly, Mary Beard, who has been awarded the accolade of Oldie Pin Up of the Year...
The term Oldie might seem politically incorrect, but that's the name of the magazine that sponsors the competition.
It's The Oldie magazine's award so I suppose that's politically OK then
Oooh, Bunny, I could really go a bacon sarnie right now.
Well done, Mary Beard . As an oldie myself and from Cambridge to boot I think she has huge personality and is obviously extremely intelligent. The sad piece in the article is she says that if this had happened 30 years ago she would have hidden in a cupboard and cried. Is it age that has made her stronger or that finally women feel stronger in themselves? Discuss....
Oh poo poo and thrice poo Bloomin' car won't start. It never lets me down so it's a big surprise. Meant I couldn't go to WW this morning, luckily nothing else that can't be walked to today. It's just something that will take up time to deal with now.
Does it make an effort to start - presumably the battery is OK. I say this because my car had a completely flat battery a couple of weeks ago. That was due to low usage and cold weather.
Morning all
Snowing here. Car gone to be fixed.
I feel just like I did when I had tropical moments, But didn't sleep to badly. When I read Dean's post I am quite healthy.overall
Dean I hope OH gets on OK
It's life's experience that makes you strong, so it could be in 30's. 40's etc Well that's what I think.
Oh Yes - we had waitrose meat balls last night - then heard they had been withdrawn - I think it's only the frozen ones though.
Well that was a lie-in-lazy git
Got comfy watching something on i-player about Kings Cross and couldn't be bothered to move
I see we are onto deep questions again-read and saw enough of that yesterday on popegate-it is time to put the fun back into our lives-so come on buck up-this is the funny thread
Now who wants jump leads to get going
Not sure if it is a battery problem, it's not 'catching' properly. The battery is obviously suffering now that I've had several goes. Probably best to call RAC, after all I pay for Home Start and never use it.
As to deep questions, when I had my first holiday job my mum said never discuss politics or religion!

: MediaTakeOut.com just got some EXPLOSIVE News . . . Porsha Stewart is NOT going to be returning to next season of the Atlanta Housewives. People IN THE KNOW at the show tell us that Porsha's HUSBAND, former NFLer Kordell Stewart is "not allowing" her to return for a second season.
Well "not allowing" may be a strong word (even though it was the word that a BRAVO TV person used). According to MediTakeOut.com's snitches BEHIND THE SCENES at the show - Kordell DID NOT like the way he was portrayed on the show and thought that producers "disrespected" him and his household - so he convinced his wife that it was in HER BEST INTEREST to quit the show.
Porsha will finish out this season, doing ALL THE PROMO that she is contracted to do. She will also appear on THE REUNION SHOW, which was taped last week. Kordell REFUSED to attend the reunion show, despite EVERY OTHER spouse (Peter, Apollo, and even Todd) attending.

Next Generation Scheduling
Electronic Content Management 2.0
The BIM Aware Enterprise
Future Proofing
Natural Data Flow
Scheduling plays a critical role on any construction project and all parties involved on a project spend considerable time thinking about how to enhance the use of time. From a software perspective, the concept of allowing scheduling to be fully integrated with the project supply chain is a Holy Grail for many. A key requirement of achieving the aforementioned Holy Grail is the presence of a single, central software environment. Unfortunately, the scheduling status quo has long involved external, 3rd party systems.
Next generation scheduling refers to systems that fully integrate scheduling into the enterprise system and give users embedded, construction specific scheduling functionality that replaces the need for third party scheduling systems. As a result, plans and schedules can now finally be fully integrated with budgets and cost in an advanced critical path solution. Compatibility with existing systems is not compromised. CMiC's new and improved scheduling system can open up MS Project schedules and import Primavera schedules. Furthermore, as a 100% web based product with no plug-in requirements, CMiC Scheduling 2.0 can be used from any PC in the world.
Next-gen scheduling also allows users to create project baselines and update existing baselines. Because they are fully embedded in a change management tool, potential change items and approved change orders are available to update budgets and create new forecasted schedules when approved. In the case of CMiC Scheduling 2.0, full integration extends to CMiC Human Capital Management and CMiC Customer Relationship Management for resource scheduling and soft allocation of resources respectively.
CMiC Scheduling 2.0 makes CMiC a true '5D' construction software platform. Because it is built directly into the project operations stack, Scheduling 2.0 allows users to create cost loaded schedules automatically. Also, thanks to tight integration with BIM models, a user can now look at a room in a building, within a larger project on a particular day and know how much it costs at that particular time. Information on what materials will be used, who will be there, how much it will cost and how much revenue is earned on a given day is all housed in the same area where users currently do their budgeting and forecasting. This '5D' approach gives contractors a real-time understanding of where they stand with regards to cost and schedule, and therefore, facilitates on time, within budget project execution.
CMiC Scheduling 2.0 supports drag-and-drop interfaces and is integrated with CMiC Time Phased Budgeting and Forecasting for project budgeting and cost loading of a schedule. The tight integration with submittal tracking means that new activities and dates entered into the system automatically update the submittal log. Put simply, CMiC Scheduling 2.0 is the most efficient scheduling solution for users running the CMiC construction technology stack because it is tightly integrated with and embedded in every business process and best of all, your IT department no longer needs to build bridges.

Cleaning Your Clogged Drain the Natural means
hi guys, if you have got never scan a bottle of a chemical drain cleaner, you recognize why many folks are wanting to search out another thanks to cleaning their drains. The chemicals found in these bottles are loaded with dangerous poisons and corrosives. Chemicals like lye and sulfuric acid are very corrosive and among the foremost commonly used merchandise on the market. Even the fumes from several of the ingredients may be harmful. These chemicals are damaging to PVC pipes therefore adding to additional headaches down the road. There are higher ways that to clear the pipes that are less costly, natural, and environmentally friendly.
Below are many straightforward ways that to assist naturally clear your drains.
– To stop the drains from closing off, each week to 2 weeks offer your drains a drink! Heat up a gallon of water in an exceedingly kettle or in an exceedingly pot on the stove. ensure it reaches a boil then slowly pour the water at down the drain. Pour tiny amounts at approximately many minutes apart. Doing this helps keep any grease, or debris like hair, from increase.
– Using some smart quaint "elbow grease" could also be all that you just would like. Grab the "tried and true" plunger. The suction created by the plunger over the drain may somewhat be all that it takes to dislodge no matter is slowing the water drainage.
– If the water remains draining, but slowly, then attempt pouring a cup of baking soda into the drain and then boil three cups of water and pour it into the drain. The boiling water makes the baking soda additional alkaline and therefore additional powerful to chop through the clog.
– One amongst the foremost acknowledge natural drain cleaners may be a baking soda and vinegar combination. First, pour a [*fr1] cup of baking soda into the sink drain.

Raphael Matos - Q&A
15 June 2009
Raphael Matos has graduated strongly to the IndyCar Series after winning the 2008 Firestone Indy Lights title, and is currently the leader in the season-long chase for rookie of the year honours after debuting in the #2 Luczo Dragon car on the streets of St Petersburg.
Rafa, you've had a pretty strong rookie season so far. What has been the highlight of your season?
Raphael Matos:
Well, I think the highlight was leading the race in Long Beach, qualifying third on the grid Long Beach. I think that's the highlight of the season, I believe.
What are your goals for the remaining eleven races of the season?
Raphael Matos:
My goal is to win a race. I really believe we're capable of winning a race this year if we get everything right. I think performance-wise on road courses we have what it takes. It's going to take a lot of effort from me, a lot of effort from the team. There's a lot of work to be done. But I think I truly believe in the people we have on our team, and I think we can do it.
Talk about the transition going from the Firestone Indy Lights to the IndyCar Series this year. Do you think you could have made the jump last year without the experience of racing on ovals?
Raphael Matos:
I think would be possible, but certainly much more difficult for me. [Racing in] Indy Lights, it's been a very smooth transition because I'm more acclimated with the ovals. I know how the dynamics of the car work on ovals, I know how to translate things to the engineers better today than two years ago, for sure. I think if you ask me if there was only road course in the schedule, I believe I was ready last year to make this step. But since we have many ovals, I think it was necessary [to have] a year in Indy Lights, for sure.
What about your team? I know you have a lot of good, experienced people on the team. Are they doing a good job of teaching you about the IndyCars, how to drive them in the IndyCar Series?
Raphael Matos:
Oh, yeah, for sure. I mean, the engineering group has tons of experience. The mechanics are top-class guys. They've been around for a long time with top teams and they have a lot of experience. And I feel, especially on oval racing, I'm getting a lot more information out of them. I feel in the road course that I'm able to naturally give them a lot more information about the car and about how to make the car fast.
Next week starts off a stretch of four in a row for the IndyCar Series. You have the short oval at Iowa, followed by Richmond where you are testing tomorrow, then the road course at Watkins Glen and the street course at Toronto. How do you mentally and physically prepare yourself for that stretch of racing?
Raphael Matos:
You know, I went back home (to Miami) for one day. I may go back to Brazil for two days just to see my family and recharge the batteries. Working out physically, making sure I'm healthy and I'm the best shape so I can be mentally prepared. I think the approach will be the same as far as, you know, taking it race by race, practice by practice, qualify, taking the same approach every race, and not letting things upset our performance, be 100 per cent focused on the car and on the engineering group and on my health.
Last year you passed up the opportunity to go to Champ Car to run Firestone Indy Lights with Andretti Green. Do you have any regrets passing up the chance to get a Champ Car ride?
Raphael Matos:
Not at all. I didn't really pass up the opportunity. The opportunity for me, I felt that by the time I signed with Andretti Green, the opportunity was not longer there because a week later Champ Car filed bankruptcy. So, I truly believe I made the decision at the right time and I think I went to the right team because for me [the move] was going to be a sidestep coming from Atlantic Series. But it was certainly an important decision for me to go to a team I knew I could win the championship with in my rookie year because I needed to prove everyone one more time that I was capable of winning in that kind of level, and finally I go to IndyCar.
Earlier this year you had a crash with Danica Patrick at St Pete. The TV cameras showed you two talking, using your hands as lot. What exactly were you saying to each other?
Raphael Matos:
I was trying to show her my point of view, and she was obviously trying to show her point of view. It was a very unfortunate race incident. I don't think it was anybody's fault. I truly believe Danica. I think she is a great driver. It's just something that both of us, I'm sure, learned about - especially myself - about being a rookie. It's something that as long as you learn, as long as you get everything out of it, you make sure you don't do it next race or never again.
I know last week at Texas, Luczo Dragon Racing hosted Shaquille O'Neal. Did you get a chance to talk to him? What was he like?
Raphael Matos:
He was a great guy. A very humble person. Very simple. Very open, funny. You can see that he's got a big heart and he helps a lot of people with charity programs. He's got a very similar philosophy than Luczo Dragon. I think that's why Shaq fit our team really well. He knows really well how to be a team player. That's how the whole Luczo Dragon team is.
I know the team made a Shaq-sized team shirt for him. Did he keep it? Does the team plan to use it maybe as an awning for the side of the truck?
Raphael Matos:
No, no, he's keeping the shirt. That's his.
Finally, what do you think it's going to take for a team like Luczo Dragon to be competitive week in and week out with the Penskes, Ganassis, and Andretti Greens of the IndyCar world?
Raphael Matos:
I think time. I think we have the personnel. I think we have the best people we can possibly get in the team. We have the best mechanics. We have the best engineers. Hopefully they believe they have the best driver. I think it takes time to build up a team, especially to fight against Andretti Green, Penske and Ganassi. They've been doing this for a long time. They've had this car for a long time. So there's a lot of catch-up work, I believe.
But we're ready for the challenge. We put ourselves in that position and against the best. And I'm sure [team co-owners] Steve [Luzco] and Jay [Penske] and everyone on the Luczo Dragon team are just as competitive as I am, and I'm sure they want to win really bad. We're doing everything we can to get the performance out of the car, and I'm doing everything I can to learn as much as I can and to improve every day.

As of December 13, 2004, the Netgear MP101NA is NOT for the serious music fan for the simple reason that the software is not able to handle a large volume of CDs - say, more than 90 discs worth of music.
When you get to upwards of 1,400 song it justs shuts down and deletes any playlists you've created without any sort of warning ala "sorry, but you can't add any more songs."
With over 1,200 CDs in my collection, I had hoped to save them to the CPU -- which has had no trouble storing that… Read Full Review

Purchased a NetGear MP101NA sound card when they first came out and have had a number of issue with it (which have now all be solved with firmware upgrades).
One of the things that really annoyed me was it continually loosing the network connection. I have now solved this by installing the UD Agent for cancer research. Link below:-
Basically, what this did was keep the PC connection open to the wi-fi network. I've now managed to have the MP101 up and… Read Full Review
