Richmond Race Recap - GEICO Ford
Posted by: lori on Apr 29, 2013
Tagged in: Untagged
Richmond, VA (April 27, 2013) – A week ago in Kansas, Casey Mears' #13 GEICO Ford Fusion was making its way quickly around Kansas Speedway before his great run came to an abrupt halt when he was hit from behind while avoiding a crash. Richmond is a track where he's experienced reasonable success, leaving the Germain Racing team hopeful for redemption at the ¾-mile racing facility.
Through the first two practices, Mears and his GEICO machine were 25th and 33rd in the respective sessions. Qualifying would later betray the Germain Racing team, as Mears would be left to fight from the rear when he was relegated to starting 40th in Saturday night's NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race.
A large crowd was on-hand to watch Mears and his Sprint Cup Series counterparts do a little short-track racing under the lights. Starting 40th, Mears would need to find a way to move forward from the 20th row. He quickly jumped to 37th, but almost immediately succumbed to handling issues. On lap four, he radioed to crew chief, Bootie Barker: "It won't turn right now, it's really tight." He would battle the racecar for most of the evening before his #13 GEICO Fusion began to get quicker and he found himself in the Lucky Dog position on lap 180. Mears began turning lap times quicker than the leaders, but narrowly missed out on gaining a lap back when the caution flag was displayed on lap 232. He would also later fall victim to a yellow flag waving just as he departed pit road from a scheduled stop. If not for a couple of untimely cautions, Mears could have easily netted a top 25, lead lap finish.
The checkered flag waved late Saturday night after a green-white-checker finish, halting 406 laps of racing. When he crossed the finish line, Mears was scored in the 30th position, netting ten spots from where he started. He has now taken the checkered flag eight times in nine starts, showing the resilience and consistency of the Germain Racing team.
"We had a tough night, but the guys on this GEICO crew never quit and we finally got the car to where we were running fast lap times," Mears said. "We were good last week in Kansas and next week in Talladega we'll be up front again. It's human nature to focus on the negative, but the reality is that we've been really fast this year and a couple of bad runs doesn't change that. And it doesn't change the hard work these guys have put in and how much we've improved from a year ago." He continued, "We've always done well at Talladega, so we're excited to get our #13 GEICO Ford Fusion back there and have some fun. We led four times there in October, so we're focused on being at the front again this year."
Up next is the second restrictor-plate race of the 2013 season. On October 7, 2012, Mears and his GEICO team very nearly visited Victory Lane at Talladega before Tony Stewart slid down and started a chain reaction, 25-car crash that ended a day that saw Mears as the leader four different times throughout the race.
Mears and the #13 GEICO Ford Fusion will hit the track at Talladega Superspeedway for the opening practice session on Friday, May 3rd, at 2:00 PM (EDT). Qualifying will follow on Saturday afternoon at 12:10 PM (EDT).
The Aaron's 499 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race is on Sunday, May 5th, and it will be televised live on FOX beginning at 1:00 PM (EDT). The Motor Racing Network (MRN) will carry the live radio broadcast.

FREMONT -- A twenty-year-old man is dead after a one-car crash Saturday night.
The Fremont Post of the Ohio State Highway Patrol is investigating a car accident on Township Road in Seneca County.
Around 3:30 a.m., the driver of the vehicle failed to yield at a stop sign, losing control and driving off the roadway. The vehicle hit a ditch before overturning onto its top and coming to a rest.
One man was taken to St. Vincent's Hospital in Toledo with serious injuries, where he later passed away.
In the vehicle were three other passengers. It is not known if they were injured in the car accident.
Speed, consumption of alcoholic beverages and lack of a seat belt are believed to be factors involved in this crash.
The Ohio State Highway Patrol was assisted by the Seneca County Sheriff's department, Bascom Fire and EMS and John's Towing.
The crash remains under investigation.

All the hawkeye gear in that was disgusting, but I laughed. And thought it wasn't bad.
wow oh wow,
Watched part of it with the sound off, the visuals alone managed to kill any chance of an erection for the entire day. That video was basically saltpeter.
they've been playing that for at least a month over here on the east side of the state - I was actually impressed, pretty good for a radio station. Not quite up to par with the old "Otho" version of Kokamo, but pretty good.
yes, the hawk gear was distrubing, but you take the good with the bad.

I also tried to reinstall Firefox cleaning folders and to set the browser to retain cookies.
Do you have any advice on what to check so that it complied with the idle set of administrator on the console??

It can happen, hoshour.
My hunting partner drew the only mountain goat tag in an excellent district with 0 points a few years back.
Somebody has to draw.
Struck out too, but since it was my first time applying, I would have been amazed to get drawn. At age 58, it's a race against time.

Arise... Kill, Eat! - Acts 10:13
Nine years in a row, perfect 0-3. My cousin got a ewe tag, and the wife of a friend of mine got a mountain goat tag, so it should be at least an interesting fall.
They had a mandatory orientation meeting and everyone at my table was talking about putting in for 10, 15 ...17 years. I didn't say a word. I didn't think I'd make it out alive.
I took a nice billy on the first day, shot him at 40 yards at about 13,000 feet and carried him not too far downhill to the truck. For all the talk about mountain goat hunting being about death-defying clinging to the sides of rock cliffs, it was probably the easiest hunt I ever had.
Guess I got lucky. Really was hoping for a sheep or goat tag but drew a Shiras Moose tag in 325. Don't know much about moose hunting other than I would love to get one. Probably end up hiring a guide since its a special tag and don't much about the area or moose in general.
Any recommendations on the unit or guides for the Anaconda area? There was two listed on the fish and game site don't know if those are the only two options or not. They were Centennial and Jakes Horses. Any experience with either?

ASHEBORO, N.C. -- A 3-year-old girl is in the hospital after she was shot Tuesday afternoon.
According to the Randolph County Sheriff's Office, another 3-year-old shot the girl in an Asheboro home on Cameron Circle.
A woman at the home told deputies she was cleaning when she heard a gunshot come from a room where three children were playing. Investigators say the kids were alone in the room when the girl was shot.
The bullet went through the girl's arm and into her abdominal area.
Deputies say the woman watching the kids was the mother of one of the children. They say her boyfriend was the parent of the other two, including the 3-year-old girl who was shot.
The sheriff's office said when the girl was taken to the hospital, she was alert. At last check, she is still being treated.
Prosecutors charged William Monroe Simmons and Melisa Ann Mumpower each with Failing to Store Firearm to Protect Minor, Felony Child Abuse and three counts of Misdemeanor Child Abuse.
Deputies say the child abuse charges stemmed from the children's living conditions.
Officers arrested Simmons and Mumpwer at the hospital. They are each in jail. A magistrate set Simmons' bond at $35,500; Mompower's at $6,300.
Randolph County DSS has opened their own investigation while sheriff's deputies continue to investigate.
Deputies say it was an accident, but neighbors want to know -- how did a toddler get a hold of a loaded gun?
"You should have them locked up or in a safe place they cannot get to it," said Joan Palacios.
"They are going to pick up anything they think they can play with - that's what happened," she explained.
Palacios lives just a couple of houses down from where the shooting occurred. Monica Escoto's family lives right next door.
"I see them a lot playing around," said Escoto.
But instead of kids playing in the yard Tuesday afternoon, she saw deputies.
"They're just innocent. They just don't know what they're doing. You know they're playing around and probably think it's a toy," said Escoto.
"I'm just hoping that little 3-year-old is going to be okay. I hate that it happened but maybe it will make them wiser about guns around children," said Palacios.

text: I was looking at the bca hall of fame inductees and found out two interesting. firstly, jose parica isn't in it. that is a bs crime of the first order. before reyes, before bustamonte, before alcano, before pags, before the lengthy rest of the list, there was parica. because of the usa's truly stupid visa rules when parica was maybe the best player in the world, his prime was totally obscured. it was like ali having the prime of his career stolen from him. the second thing is that fats wanderone is in the hall, but not in the " great player " category. he was voted in for " contributions" to billiards. I whole heartedly agree that he wasn't a great player. before he was able to convince everyone that " the hustler" was about him, and before Johnson city where the press fawned over like he was god, he hung around at the cue and carom in Carbondale, il, which is about 10 miles from fats' home. c'dale was a stop between st Louis and Memphis for road players. it is where siu is and a mecca for Chicago students who didn't want to really study much. a lot of good players at that time, and a worthwhile stopover for the road players. I hung out a the cue carom so I saw fats play quite a bit, usually by himself. he was good, but certainly not world class. he turned down a whole lot more money games than he accepted. and he never enterted Johnson city. but he did help to further tv pool, and was a very nice person, and, even tho he was pretty loud and spent more time bragging than playing, he really did have great respect for the game. so the hall got it right with fats but i9s messed up in the head about paqrica. billy p

It's a bleak time for the financial markets. We've seen financial institutions fall and governments around the world struggling to stabilise the markets. But who is to blame? According to media reports there are two suspects in the dock: the "rocket scientists" (a.k.a. the financial mathematicians) who provided the information behind the market's decisions, or the greedy bankers who only thought about quick profits and their end-of-year bonuses.
But just what role does maths have in the financial market? Most of us will have come into direct contact with financial maths when applying for a loan from a high street bank. Rather than the bank manager relying on how well they know you personally, as might have happened in the past, now loan decisions are based on statistical models. But these robust mathematical models predicting whether or not someone will be able to repay their loan did not avert the subprime mortgages in the US , the first domino to fall in the current crisis. Loans were still given to people the models predicted would default on their payments.
The failure of these high-risk loans infected the whole financial markets thanks to the use of credit derivatives to share the credit risk around. These complex financial instruments were profitable in a booming market, but are now paralysing the financial system. Did the mathematicians involved in developing these products get their sums wrong?
On the other hand, if the real culprits are the bankers, then what lead them to make such bad decisions? Could it have been down to their biochemical make up, and would the problem be solved by more diversity on the trading floor?
Read more for answers to all these questions...

Higher dimensions on DVD
An excellent series of nine films taking you into the fourth dimension is now freely available online and cheaply available on DVD. Using superb graphics and clear, concise, no-frills presentation, the series starts with a very basic introduction to projections, then steps from two dimensions up into three and then four, and ends up with some quite sophisticated - and very pretty - geometric objects and concepts. Everyone, from complete novice to university students, will find something interesting in this series, and at 13 minutes length each, the films are a great resource for the class room. The website contains detailed background info on each episode. Go have a look, it's well worth it!

Mathematical moments - Pierre Louis Moreau de Maupertuis
Pierre Louis Moreau de Maupertuis
For an originator of the principle of least action, Maupertuis led a surprisingly productive life, shunning neither effort nor intrigue. His early academic studies focussed on philosophy and music, were interrupted by a stint with the Musketeers, and resumed in Paris, where his interest in mathematics began to blossom. His first paper as a member of the Academie de Sciences explored the influence of a musical instrument's shape on the sounds it produces, and was followed by a range of works on mathematical curves. The entirely non-mathematical Salamander - yes, the amphibian - was the topic of another of his papers from that period.
Keen to expand his mathematical expertise, Maupertuis relocated to Basle in 1729, where he lived with and studied under none other than Johann Bernoulli. Back in Paris, papers on astronomy, mechanics and differential equations followed, and Maupertuis established himself as an eclectic mathematical talent. But it wasn't all theory. In 1736 Maupertuis set out on an expedition to Lapland, his mission to measure the length of a degree along the meridian. After enduring swarms of pesky insects, terrible cold and being shipwrecked, Maupertuis returned in 1737 with the knowledge that the Earth was oblate ... and two native Finnish girls. The latter did not further his academic standing, instead they laid him open to ridicule from his enemies.
And enemies there were many. Maupertuis, who was given to penning venomous attacks on his opponents, managed to fall out with Johann Bernoulli and later also with Voltaire with whom he had become friends after the expedition. On the upside, his academic talents inspired the interest of Frederick the Great, who in 1740 invited him to become president of the brand new Berlin Academy. After visiting Frederick in Berlin, Maupertuis ended up on the battle field on the side of the Prussians, was taken prisoner by the Austrians, but was eventually released, shaken but unharmed. In 1746, after his career had made good progress in Paris, he did take the presidency of the Berlin Academy and moved to Berlin permanently.
Maupertuis talents were indeed eclectic. He published on a range of subjects including mathematics, philosophy and astronomy. A hundred years before Darwin he almost formulated Darwin's theory of evolution. But it is probably the principle of least action that he is most remembered for now. The principle says that physical systems, in getting from state A to state B, always choose the path that minimises the effort required. This begs the question of who or what does the minimising, and the principle opened up all sorts of cans of teleological worms.
Maupertuis was extremely proud of his principle of least action, so it came as a shock when he accidentally recommended a paper for publication which stated that it wasn't him but Leibniz who first postulated it. The resulting priority dispute cast a shadow over the last years of his life and had an adverse effect on his health. In 1756 he left Berlin for good and three years later died on a journey he undertook to improve his health.
For more information on Maupertuis visit the MacTutor History of Maths site

Maths on telly and radio
BBC Four will launch a new three-part TV series on maths at 9pm this coming Monday the 6th of October. In The story of maths Marcus du Sautoy, Oxford mathematician and one of the UK's finest maths popularisers, describes the often surprising lives of the great mathematicians, explains the development of the key mathematical ideas and shows how — in a multitude of unusual ways — those ideas underpin the science, technology and culture that shape our world. The first episode will look at the contributions from the ancient Greeks.
To get you into the mood, have a look at du Sautoy's Plus articles The prime number lottery, The music of the primes, and Beckham in his prime number.
If you prefer the radio, then tune into BBC Radio 4's In our time on Thursday the 9th of October at 9am and again at 9.30pm. Melvyn Bragg together with experts including John D Barrow will discuss Gödel's infamous incompleteness theorem.

Alles Gute zum Geburtstag! Joyeux Anniversaire! Suk San Wan Keut! Sun Yat Fai Lok! Hartelijk gefeliciteerd! Felichan Naskightagon! And Happy Birthday to Google in the other 93-plus languages it speaks!
As the web search engine Google celebrates its 10th birthday it is hard to imagine life online without it. It has become such an indispensable tool that we don't just search for something any more, we "google" it, as recognised by the Oxford English Dictionary in 2006. What many people don't realise is that Google's rise to become one of the most successful search engines on the web today is due to the mathematical algorithm PageRank, devised by Sergey Brin and Lawrence Page, the founders of Google. This algorithm not only decides which webpages match your search criteria (which all search engines do), but also which are more important and returns these at the top of the results.Read more...

ACADEMIC ADVISINGAcademic Advising benefits students by partnering them with professional and faculty advisors who can be intellectual mentors, advisors and advocates. The professional advisors in the Undergraduate Programs Office (Room 107 BSA, 330-672-2872) are the primary advisors for the College of Business Administration students. Advisors not only guide students through their academic program(s), but they also guide them in meaningful investigation and choices for learning opportunities outside the classroom. These opportunities include relevant career/major exploration via student group/club activity, campus and community service and activities, leadership development, national and study abroad opportunities, relevant internship experiences and more. All students are encouraged to connect with their advisor(s) each semester to maximize their learning experiences and to optimally achieve their program goals and requirements.
All new freshmen and transfer students (with less than 24 semester hours) are assigned to their first-year advisor and must register in the Destination Kent State: First Year Experience course, which orients them to the College of Business Administration expectations, requirements and resources. Students who select one of the college's Learning Communities or Freshman Interest Groups additionally are connected to a fellowship of similarly interested students to share learning opportunities and experiences.
All students in the College of Business Administration should also carefully read General Requirements and Regulations.
- A minimum of 121 semester hours of approved coursework must be completed as prescribed in the various curricula. Included in these 121 semester hours is US 10097 Destination Kent State: First Year Experience, which may be used as a pre-major general elective.
- All business administration students must satisfy the 36-credit-hour minimum requirement of the Kent Core as outlined and complete 6 credit hours of diversity coursework. Also, the Pre-major requirements (lower-division) show how the Kent Core courses apply to the baccalaureate degree program in business administration.
- Writing-intensive course requirement
- Students must complete at least 50 percent of business credit hours (required for the business degree) in-residence on a Kent State University campus.
- Students must complete at least 50 percent of their major credit hours in residence on a Kent State University campus.

I recently opted to get rid of Novell, and I decided to choose Zimbra.
Zimbra met all of my, and my clients needs. The fantastically designed interface allowed me to focus on other things instead of teaching my users email all over again.
The support staff at Zimbra is some of the best out there. I had an issue with my DNS records, and they were right there to assist me and get Zimbra up and running. They take pride in their product, and appreciate each and every user.
I would whole-heartedly like to thank Zimbra for releaving the headache of Novell quicker than Motrin ever did.
Thank you again Zimbra, all is well on this spot of the world, thanks to you!

The H-160 and H-360 have trim weights designed specifically to fit inside the vehicle
housing. For best results use only these specially designed weights. Doing so will
avoid any possible internal damage that could be caused by shifting weights.
The Hollis vehicle's variable pitch propeller allows you to choose whether to run the
vehicle at a slower speed that will provide a longer running time, or at faster speeds
that will shorten the running time. Although the range of the vehicle will remain
approximately the same, you may wish to consider other factors, such as air
consumption, No-Decompression bottom time, currents; etc. Unless you are really in
a hurry with a lot of ground to cover, you may find it more relaxing and less fatiguing
to operate the vehicle at a lower pitch setting.

fàvorite 'dated' names
Do you love any names that you consider dated?
Is there any formula for figuring out if a name is dated or is it more like "most Theresas I know are 50"?
Would you use a dated name and if so what era are you ok with?
Personally I love a lot of names in this category and I find Nancy, Annette, Joan are usable moreso than Jennifer, Heather, Amanda.

I LOVE eighties and nineties names!! I hate that they are now the "mom names," because I love the names:
Jamie (girl) (my ALL-TIME FAVORITE name, that I will probably never use )
Alicia (as a first name, or more likely as Jamie's middle name)
I know there are more, but these are the first ones that come to mind.

I don't know that there's a specific formula, but I think for most people the names of their own generation are "dated" while those of their parents or grandparents are coming back around as "vintage" or seem fresh again. Of course, this rule of thumb is subject to generation length--my friend's family were a series of short generations and mine were late bloomers, so her grandma is a year younger than my mom. (Her mom was 16 when she had my friend and my mom was 36 when she had me.)

I like Joan a lot. I think if the name is more commonly used on 40 or 50 year olds, it would be considered dated. I don't think I would use a dated name, there are so many great modern names.All the best,

Our Stories
Rosanna Perez
Opening her mind
Rosanna Perez, a member of TC3's class of 2011, traveled to the Dominican Republic as part of a study abroad internship in hotel and restaurant management. She worked at Hodelpa's Gran Almirante Hotel in Santiago, the premier property and only five-star hotel owned by Hodelpa. The hotel has a casino and all imaginable amenities, including a spa, multiple restaurants, and more.
"Traveling to the Dominican Republic to study and to work has opened my mind in ways I might never have imagined - I see new possibilities and ideas for my future. This is the best possible learning experience I could have had, and TC3 made it possible," says Rosanna, who was able to make the trip with the help of the Elaine Brophy Squires Study Abroad Scholarship through the TC3 Foundation.

RUSSELLVILLE, Ark. (SAU) - Southern Arkansas senior shortstop Tyler Cameron has been named as the Great American Conference Player of the Week as it was announced by the league office on Monday.
Cameron, a native of Parkers Chapel, Ark., earned the GAC weekly award after he hit .429 (6-for-14) while showing some power from the leadoff spot in the Mulerider order this past week. In four games, Cameron had a slugging percentage of 1.143 as he had one double and three homeruns over the week.
One of Cameron's homeruns came in the Muleriders' 17-8 blowout win over LSU-Shreveport in mid-week action while his other two came against Northwestern Oklahoma in conference play.
While Cameron was showing some power potential from the leadoff spot, he was also being a prototypical leadoff hitter throughout the week as he drew five walks, three of which came in SAU's game one win over NWOSU. For the week, Cameron had an on-base percentage of .579
Cameron is now the fourth Mulerider be named either GAC Player or Pitcher of the Week.

text: Winning by numbers: how performance analysis is transforming sport Magazine features 26 June 12 by Joao Medeiros Fred MacGregor This article was taken from the July 2012 issue of Wired magazine. Be the first to read Wired's articles in print before they're posted online, and get your hands on loads of additional content by subscribing online. Soon after becoming a professional squash player at age 18, Nick Matthew left his coach. He brought in David Pearson, then England's national squash coach, and performance analyst Stafford Murray. Matthew had been playing since the age of eight and had consistently ranked among the top junior players in the UK. He was a strong athlete -- he had been a cross-country runner for many years -- and typically won by wearing down his opponents. But as a senior player his physicality was no longer an advantage against much stronger opponents. He realised that he wasn't good enough. "His technique was not the best," says Murray. "He was very strong, and mentally one of the best. But you talk about naturally gifted players and he certainly wasn't one." Murray is the head of performance analysis and biomechanics at the English Institute of Sport (EIS) in Manchester, overseeing 25 staff who work across all national sports teams. In his mid-thirties, he has the no-nonsense manner of a sports coach and the academic enthusiasm of a scholar. Murray was mentored by Mike Hughes, who pioneered performance analysis in the early 80s, using PCs to record and process data in real time during squash matches. "I tell my students -- Stafford is the best performance analyst in the country," says Hughes.When Murray began working with Matthew, they would meet four times a week. Murray would bring cameras to the court and analyse Matthew's technique using Dartfish, a video-based software program. Murray saw that Matthew was mostly using his wrist, rather than his whole body, when taking a backhand shot; as a result, he couldn't generate much power. Using Dartfish, Murray would break down the movement in strobe motion. He would also compare it with how Matthew was performing that same move previously by overlaying a ghost image on the screen. Matthew would hit a dozen balls and then look at the monitor. His coach would feed him the ball slowly, as if he were a beginner. He would spend hours on court each day, just practising his backhand, over and over."I had been playing since I was a kid and now I was learning how to hit a ball from scratch," Matthew says. "I felt a lot of self-doubt. I kept thinking, 'Do I really need to go through this? I'm already a good player.' It was the hardest thing I've ever had to do." When he began training with Murray in 2001, Matthew had been playing squash for 12 years and was ranked among the top 100 players in the world. It took him two years to relearn how to hit a ball but, by 2004, he had climbed to the top ten. Six years later, he became the world's number one player.In December 2010, Matthew played against his compatriot James Willstrop in the final of the Saudi PSA World Open Squash Championship. Matthew had already beaten the four-time world champion Amr Shabana in the semifinals, and won the final against Willstrop by three sets to one, winning the last two games 11-2 and 11-3. "Destroying someone with my squash game as opposed to tiring him out was unique for me," says Matthew. "That's when it all came together."*** In elite sports, being the most talented is no longer enough; top athletes also have to ensure they are the better prepared.They understand that their only sustainable advantage is to learn and improve faster than their opponents. The technology used by performance analysts allows them to measure every force, dissect every movement and time every action with absolute precision. That feedback allows athletes to find areas for improvement and aids the learning of new skills.In the general domain of skill expertise, objective feedback rarely follows action. Experimental physicists have to wait for years to obtain validation of their theories; doctors seldom get immediate confirmation that their diagnoses are accurate. Elite athletes, on the other hand, can get immediate and precise feedback for every movement that they make, right down to the tiniest manoeuvre. They have become used to using scientific knowledge and data feedback to optimise the way they train, making it more efficient and effective. Coaches call this "accelerated learning". Elite athletes haven't merely mastered their sport. They have mastered the art and science of learning.At the EIS, Murray's team of performance analysts and biomechanists are working with Olympic athletes as they prepare for the London 2012 Olympic Games. From tae kwon do to sailing, from cycling to boxing, Murray's team of performance analysts collects data and analyses it. "The fundamental methods are generic. The guys working with the sailing team will have a look at what the tae kwon do analysts are doing and the guys in boxing will come down to study the methods of the squash analysts," Murray says.At the Manchester Velodrome, BAE Systems has developed a timing system based on military technology that uses lasers and bar codes on athletes to give exact identification, split times and velocity data. Bikes have instrumented cranks that capture force measurements, velocity and acceleration. The data is logged in real time via a system developed by McLaren and performance analysts stream the video of the cyclists' workouts directly to the coaches' iPads. It has paid off: the British cycling team brought home 14 medals at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Performance analysts also make extensive use of Dartfish, created at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, which allows them to record performance, annotate video clips, overlay extra footage and add time codes. Murray likes to cite a particular statistic: coaches can recall only about 30 percent of what they see during a competition. In other words: 70 percent of potentially vital information goes unnoticed. That's where his expertise as a performance analyst lies -- in finding objective data that will make his athletes accelerate their learning and outperform the competition. "I worked with a squash player who wasn't hitting the ball at the right point during the swing," Murray says. In squash, he explains, players should take the ball on the top of the bounce when it comes off the floor. If you take it on top of that trajectory, you're not giving your opponent any time to get their breath back. "This player was hitting it just off the top of bounce," he says. "I calculated his timing and estimated that he was losing about two minutes throughout the match. He was basically giving his opponents two extra minutes. This is the sort of data that we have to find. If we're not changing their behaviour and accelerating the way they learn new skills, we're failing."

Yeah...the challenge there is that most folks add channels as opposed to downsize their favorites list. The current method seems the only way to address both philosophies on custom favorites (as Scott K mentioned). Since that process only happens a few times a year and takes a couple minutes to address...it would seem the pain is minimal.
Yes, and it was like this on DirecTV DVRs for a while and I had to keep Deleting or Unchecking New Channels that I did not want in my Customized Favorite Channel List.
That's been going on since we started out with the first group of HD channels several years back. They'll inevitably always be a few folks who simply like to complain for the sake of complaining and a couple others who seek perfection in a world where perfection doesn't exist. Sadly, that's just the way it is and always has been.
i come to this forum daily! i enjoy all the HD channels we get. It just gets me that the same people say if they get this channel or th at channel they will be happy< they get them and still complain!

Life on two wheels

Pattaya City, Thailand (Sports Network) - Maria Kirilenko and Sabine Lisicki
were semifinal winners Saturday and will meet for the title at the Pattaya
The second-seeded Kirilenko rolled to a 6-0, 6-2 rout of Romania's Sorana
Cirstea after the fifth-seeded Lisicki had polished off Russian Nina
Bratchikova, 7-5, 6-3.
Kirilenko will play in the Pattaya final for the second straight year. She
lost to Slovakia's Daniela Hantuchova last year, one of her two losses in
title matches in 2012.
The 25-year-old Russian is 5-6 lifetime in WTA finals and has lost four in a
row since winning her last tournament title in September 2008 in Seoul.
Lisicki is 3-2 lifetime in finals and will play in a title match for the first
time since August 2011 when she won the U.S. Open tune-up in Texas.
It's been a rough start to 2013 for the German, who was bounced in the second
round by Victoria Azarenka in Brisbane and lost to Caroline Wozniacki in the
first round at the Australian Open.
Kirilenko won both previous meetings with Lisicki, but the two haven't squared
off since 2008 in the quarterfinals of the U.S. Open tune-up in Cincinnati.
This week's titlist will collect $40,000.

Treatment of Hepatitis C (HCV)
Hepatitis C (HCV) is the leading cause for liver transplantation and liver cancer in the United States.
A further increase in Hepatitis C induced liver failure and cancer over the next 10-15 years is predicted without diagnosis and treatment. Treatment can reduce these risks.
However, it is estimated that 78% of patients with Hepatitis C are not diagnosed.
The Comprehensive Liver Center at Hartford Hospital is providing recently FDA-approved treatments that have a cure rate of up to 80% for all genotypes of Hepatitis C, including excellent results for patients with non response to previous available therapies.
We strongly recommend screening all patients with potential risk factors for Hepatitis C and would appreciate the opportunity to participate in the care of any Hepatitis C patient.
Persons for whom HCV screening is recommended:
All those born from 1945 - 1965 (Baby Boomers)
Persons who have injected illicit drugs in the recent and remote past, including those who injected only once and do not consider themselves to be drug users
Persons with conditions associated with a high prevalence of HCV infection including:
Persons with HIV infection
Persons with hemophilia who received clotting factor concentrates prior to 1987
Persons who have ever been on hemodialysis
Persons with unexplained abnormal aminotransferase levels
Prior recipients of transfusions or organ transplants prior to July 1992 including:
• Persons who were notified that they had received blood from a donor who later tested positive for HCV infection
• Persons who received a transfusion of blood or blood products
• Persons who received an organ transplant
Children born to HCV-infected mothers
Health care, emergency medical and public safety workers after a needle stick injury or mucosal exposure to HCV-positive blood
Current sexual partners of HCV-infected persons AASLD GUIDELINES HEPATOLOGY, Vol. 49, No. 4, 2009
The Comprehensive Liver Center at Hartford Hospital is dedicated to the specialized assessment, treatment and management of patients with liver disease and liver cancer. The infrastructure of the Center allows for patients to be evaluated in a multidisciplinary setting within the same day as visits with a team of providers representing multiple specialties are coordinated from one central location. The Multidisciplinary Care Team is represented by physicians who stay apprised of the most current advances in liver therapy and work together to provide streamlined, coordinated care in close collaboration with referring physicians.

AT&T adds northern Flagler County cell site
Published: Monday, December 23, 2013 at 7:10 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, December 23, 2013 at 7:10 p.m.
AT&T recently added a mobile Internet cell site in the northern part of Flagler County as part of its AT&T 4G LTE rollout investment.
The tower is expected to increase the reliability and performance of wireless services to area residents and businesses and increase the speed, up to 10 times faster than prior generation systems.
AT&T launched its 4G LTE network in Jacksonville in September 2012. The new Flagler cell site is part of the company's three-year investment plan, announced last fall, to expand and enhance its IP broadband networks to meet customer demand for high-speed Internet access, new mobile apps and cloud-based services.

Rydges Cronulla
Blue Jasmine, now showing at Cronulla Cinemas
Loved it. An excellent film that does everything it sets out to do brilliantly. Cate Blanchett is amazing and has terrific support from Alec Baldwin, Sally Hawkins and (to my surprise) Andrew Dice Clay. On many levels it is Woody Allen paying homage to Tennessee Williams and A Streetcar Named Desire, but that is so up front it doesn't jar. It is a terrific script in both character and dialogue and the direction confident and effortless. There's not much 'action' as such but it is riveting for all of the 99 minutes. Occasionally Woody Allen seems to be painting by numbers, occasionally he produces a gem. In his necklace of 43 movies, this is one of the brighter gems.
The trailer does not do the film justice, but here's the trailer:

BELLEFONTE, Pa. -- Prosecutors began unveiling their case against Jerry Sandusky on Monday describing the former Penn State University assistant football coach as a "serial predator" in opening statements in the trial of the 68-year-old man accused of sexually abusing 10 boys during a period of 15 years.
Seated just a few yards away from the jury of seven women and five men, Sandusky looked on as prosecutor Joe McGettigan displayed the childhood photographs of eight alleged victims on a giant screen across from the jury box.
"You are going to be hearing from young men and the experiences that happened not over days, not weeks, or months, but over years," he said. "It reminds me of what a famous author once said, the past is never dead."
McGettigan, occasionally pointing at Sandusky, said the former coach "escalated" his behavior over time until it reached "sexual intercourse and oral sex."
He said that one of the alleged victims shown on the screen was forced to engage in oral sex with Sandusky more than 20 times.
"You'll be looking at these young men from there," McGettigan said, pointing to the witness box. "Up 'till now, they have been known as Victim 1, Victim 2, Victim 3, and so on. But these are real people with real life experiences."
McGettigan said Sandusky selected his victims from a "vast pool" of children who participated in the coach's charity for at-risk children known as The Second Mile.
Sandusky, wearing an olive suit, looked at jurors without expression as McGettigan made his statements. He occasionally turned to some papers in front of him on the defense table. His wife, Dottie, wearing a blue suit, was seated on the first row behind the defense table but was later ushered out of the courtroom as a potential witness in the case.
The trial opened Monday seven months after Sandusky's arrest, following the fast-paced selection of seven women and five men to serve on a jury whose members have strong ties to Penn State.
Sandusky, a revered former coach who helped bring two national championships to Penn State, is alleged to have selected many of the accusers while they participated in the charity program.
The coach has acknowledged showering with children after physical workouts, but has denied any abusive behavior.
Sandusky's arrest last November triggered a dizzying series of events at a school, including the ouster of university president Graham Spanier and college football legend Joe Paterno.
Long the face of Penn State, Paterno died in January shortly after being diagnosed with lung cancer.
Neither Paterno nor Spanier was charged, but former athletic director Tim Curley, on leave from that job, and retired senior vice president Gary Schultz were charged with lying to a Pennsylvania grand jury about what they were told about a 2001 incident in the Penn State locker-room showers involving Sandusky and a boy believed to be about 11 years old.
Michael McQueary, a former football assistant, has said that he told Curley and Schultz that he witnessed Sandusky engaged in sexual conduct with the boy, who has not been identified by authorities. McQueary first told Paterno, who alerted Curley and Schultz. But the administrators told the grand jury that McQueary's account did not include a description of sexual activity. They deny any wrongdoing; a trial date has yet to be set in that case.
As many as eight of Sandusky's alleged victims are expected to testify during Sandusky's trial that is expected to take three weeks.

pruning a tree/bush in my front yard
Need advice about building a raised garden bed, double-digging or installing an irrigation system? This is the place to find the help you need!
Re: pruning a tree/bush in my front yard
My tree/shrub started life as a maple tree planted with other trees with great enthusiasm when the yard was new. Four yrs ago we had five trees removed to open up the yard to more sunshine. We left the maple tree stump at about 18" to serve as a pot stand. Well.....the stump sprouted. We liked the look as a bush & I keep it pruned to about 6 ft. high x 6ft.wide. Hafta admit it looks better as a bush than it ever did as a tree.LOL.

I've heard that they have problems with the Activision's rights. Any TT official news or reference about the game (aside this forum thread) was deleted. They had a placeholder website similar to the Fable one, and it's not available anymore.
The last statement about it was "The genre doesn't need us anymore".
No official comments on the forum aside Mods, the last one being one year old.

Deanna M. Neff, MPH
Periodontal disease refers to bacterial plaque and infections around the gum and tooth root. It can happen around one or several teeth. In its more advanced stages, surgery may be needed to fix damaged gums.
During flap surgery, the periodontist makes a small incision in the gum, pulls back the gum flap, cleans out the infected, plaque-filled pocket, and stitches the gums back in place.
This surgery is needed when:
This surgery slows the progression of periodontal disease by reducing deep pockets and bacterial growth. Periodontal disease can cause other health problems if not treated.
If you are planning to have periodontal surgery, your dentist will review a list of possible complications, which may include:
Factors that may increase the risk of complications include:
On the day of the surgery:
A local anesthetic will be used near the gum disease.
Your dentist may recommend conscious sedation. You will be awake, but will have no anxiety during the surgery.
This surgery is usually done in an outpatient setting. You do not need to stay overnight. If you are undergoing sedation, you will have an IV placed in your arm to deliver medicine. Your heart rate, blood pressure, and breathing will be monitored during and after the surgery.
The periodontist or dentist will numb the affected area using a local anesthetic delivered through a needle. They will make a small cut in the gum line near the tooth root. The gum flap will be pulled back, and he will clean out and scrape the infected area. The gum flap will be repositioned to minimize the deep pocket size that formed. The gum will be stitched back into place. A dressing will be applied.
The time it takes to complete the procedure depends on how bad the damage is and how many gum areas are affected.
You may feel mild discomfort while the dentist numbs the affected area or places an IV in your arm. You will not feel pain during the surgery. Medicines can help control pain and anxiety before, during, and after the procedure.
When you return home, do the following for 24 hours to help ensure a smooth recovery:
After arriving home, contact your dentist if any of the following occurs:
In case of an emergency, call for medical help right away.

|Carper qualifies for state triple jump at Yuma
|Written by Darci Tomky
With his first jump of the season, Kyle Carper earned himself a spot at the state track meet in Pueblo. His triple jump of 43' 2.5" not only marked Carper as the first Dragon trackster to qualify for the state meet, but also landed him first place honors at the Yuma Bill Kalb Invitational Tuesday, April 7.
Coach Sandra Rahe noted that while this was the team's second meet, it was the first for several atheletes due to basketball and other organizational commitments. "We are now mid-season and with only two meets behind us we have a lot of our season yet to come," said Rahe.
"The kids are doing very well, getting stronger each day," she said. "We will be working on 'competeing' over the next couple weeks by focusing on not just finishing the race but shooting for our best times/distances."
Weather has been a factor for the Dragon athletes, with strong winds at the Yuma meet. Rahe notes it has been difficult to get repetition for field events as several practices have been held indoors due to extreme weather this spring.
In addition to triple jump, Carper also received first in the long jump competition with a 19' 10" jump. Brandon Oosthuysen took home second in the 400 meter dash.
Marissa Smith finished in the top three in the 100, 200 and 400 meter dash races, and Heather Duester earned second and fourth places in the 400 and 200 meter dash respectively.
Additionally, Rahe said Mallory Bennett and Marci Vasa look strong and will contribute to the relays this year. Patricia Adams is doing well in the shot put, and hurdlers Taylor Haidle and Alex Quintana are improving on form and technique.
While Holyoke's track team was missing several atheletes due to illnesses at the Yuma meet, Rahe expects to have a full squad for the upcoming meet in Wray. Holyoke girls earned 52 points finishing fifth out of 24 teams, and the boys placed 12th out of 22 with 34 points.
