For a few months I have been using the Zimbra Desktop client. It has a nice and smooth interface, many features and it is very reliable.
However, it seems like the desktop client doesn't support notifications for incoming mails in a shared folder.
When I receive an email, the shared folder is bolded and is followed by the number of unreaded mails, but no sound or popup notification. This results in having the client on front whole the time, which makes multitasking almost impossible.
Is there any option or workaround to be notified when receiving new messages in the shared folders?
Thanks in advance,

Thermal Insulation with Bubbles is Better
Valerio Marra | September 4, 2013
As a nuclear engineer, I've attended many thermal engineering classes. Whereas I've enjoyed learning techniques to enhance heat transfer, I've also found fascinating those applications where it is important to reduce heat transfer using the right choice and combination of materials and shapes. The design of this is vital for many industries, including the building and aerospace industries. Lately, I came across an interesting example of thermal insulation in the most mundane of these things: clothing design. I had to buy a wetsuit and couldn't resist the temptation to simulate and understand its thermal insulation properties.
Wetsuits and Foamed Neoprene
Modern wetsuits are made of neoprene, and they don't actually prevent us from getting wet — instead, they are designed to keep us warm. If a wetsuit is tight enough, the layer of water that fills the gap between the wetsuit and our skin will be so thin that it will readily be warmed up by our body heat. After the initial chill, the insulation offered by the foam neoprene allows us to swim and enjoy the water without experiencing its true temperature. In order to maintain its thermal insulation properties while in use, wetsuits are designed to prevent what is called flushing — or cold water entering the wetsuit through the ankles, wrists, and neck.
Why does foamed neoprene offer such good thermal insulation? Foamed neoprene contains small bubbles of nitrogen gas. The presence of such a gas with a very low thermal conductivity reduces heat transfer by almost an order of magnitude, compared to having the skin directly in contact with water. In addition to its favorable thermal properties, there are almost no convection currents in a gas trapped in such tiny bubbles. Heat transport in foamed neoprene occurs mainly through diffusion, a slow transport mechanism that reduces heat loss from our body.
Thermal Insulation: Simulation Confirms Bubbles are Better
To build my model I used COMSOL Multiphysics and the Heat Transfer Module, and considered a 2D domain made with the following layers, from left to right:
|Thermal Properties
|2 mm
|Same as water
|0.5 mm
|Temperature dependent, taken from the Material Library
available in COMSOL Multiphysics
|Comfortable fabric (nylon)
|0.2 mm
|Same as above
|Titanium metal oxide
|0.05 mm
|Same as above
|3 mm
|Same as above
|Nitrogen bubbles
|0.025 mm
|Same as above
|Resistant fabric (nylon)
|0.2 mm
|Same as above
The values provided in the table above are based on data that I found in an online search. If needed, or if I come across new information or specifications, I can test different materials and geometrical properties with just a few clicks. Additionally, my model is fully parameterized. That's one of the main advantages of simulation — it enables the verification and optimization of a design right on the computer, before launching an expensive experimental campaign. The model geometry is depicted below, in Figure 1.
Figure 1: Foamed neoprene model geometry with postprocessing cut line (in red).
Boundary conditions and initial temperature used in the model are summarized below:
|Body Heat Flux, left boundary
|Sea Temperature, right boundary
|Initial Temperature, all domains
|100 W/2 m2 (Ref. 2 and 3)
|17.2°C (Ref. 4, September)
|36.1°C (Ref. 5)
The simulation results shown in Figure 2 confirm that having a foamed neoprene wetsuit, with the nitrogen bubble insulation, is a good choice, especially if we're in cold water for more than five minutes. We have three minutes more before we reach a skin temperature of 24°C, with respect to a non-foamed neoprene wetsuit.
Figure 2. Skin temperature vs. time.
Figures 3 and 4 provide more details about the temperature profile along a horizontal cut line and the temperature distribution across the whole simulation domain, respectively.
Figure 3. From top to bottom: model geometry with postprocessing cut line (in red); temperature values along the cut line at t= 2, 6, and 9 min.
Figure 4. Temperature distribution at t=2 minutes (left) and 9 minutes (right).
Heat Transfer Modeling Tips
I'm sure you noticed in Figure 1 that I've actually drawn in the nitrogen bubbles. It would also have been possible to have simulated the bubbles by applying the technique for simulating Homogenized Pore Scale Flow and Thermal Conduction, which describes how to represent the bubbles with their equivalent volume-averaged thermal properties, allowing them to be simulated without drawing them or losing too much in accuracy. I could have simulated them without individually drawing all the domains thanks to boundary conditions in COMSOL that are specifically designed to model domains that are geometrically much smaller than the rest of the model. See Figures 5, 6, and 7 for more details about the options available in the Heat Transfer Module.

Figure 6. Thin Thermally Resistive Layer boundary condition (click to enlarge).
Figure 7. Thermal Contact boundary condition (click to enlarge).
Additional Resources
When creating the model, I used some of the following resources in order to set up the model and select the model properties:
- Homogenized Pore Scale Flow and Thermal Conduction functionality in COMSOL, which allows for the use of image data to represent 2D material distributions and use the image's color or gray scale to identify regions with different materials
- Thermoregulation, a resource about how the body regulates its heat output power
- Skin description
- Boston's average water temperature
- Hypothermia

Ron Williams is seeking the office as a republican. the Pascagoula contractor says one of the key issues in his platform is improving public services.
"A simple thing that we're going to do in our state that's going to help everybody, we're going to stagger the hours of government offices, which means you can stay at your job all day and when you have business with the state they'll be open at 5:30 and 6 o'clock," says Williams.' 'Getting what the taxpayer is supposed to be getting is the top of my platform"
At this time Williams says he is not accepting campaign contributions because he wants the emphasis to be on his message and not money. Aside from public services, Williams' platform concentrates heavily on job creation and education.

[UPDATED] - This 1024 character limit appears only to apply to HTML signatures.
I've done quite a bit of searching and while the default max length is 1024, changing the various J/S files where SIGNATURE_MAX_LENGTH appears and zimbra-attrs.xml does not seem to have any affect - even after cleaning out the work directory and restarting ZD (both daemon and client).
Is there some other cache I'm missing or is there some other config file of which I am not aware so I can change this setting?
ZD blows Thunderbird out of the water on Linux and I think this is the last thing keeping me from making the full conversion.

Renovation Pictures
ATH took a tour of Kauffman Stadium yesterday…here are a few of the many new features since our tour one week ago.
Signs have been placed on several of the retail stores. Here is the new walk-in retail store on View Level and a retail store down the right field line (near section 246 on your new section 246 on your new ballpark seating chart).
Wherever you are in the stadium, you will see scores and information as ribbon boards and scoreboards have been added. The ribbon board has been in place for some time. Yesterday, we saw it in action!
A cool new seating area is the Signature Suite Lounges on the Loge Level. If you've got a few people in your group and want a suite experience, but not an entire suite to yourself, this shared lounge is the way to go! Here you see the entrance to the Signature Suite Lounge (below).
A new basket fence is being placed near the left field Outfield Box seats. This reminds us of the basket at Chicago's Wrigley Field…it will be a great place to catch a Royals home run!
The Royals Hall of Fame now features a large free-standing sign. A face will be added to this sign, which will light up.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) -- Michael Snaer scored 19 of his game-high 24 points in the second half Tuesday night leading Florida State to a 76-62 win over Wake Forest.
Snaer scored 13 points during a 23-3 run midway through the second half that put the game out of reach for the visitors. Okaro White added 13 points and Boris Bojanovsky matched his career best with 10 for the Seminoles, who avenged a 25-point loss to the Demon Deacons 17 days earlier.
C.J. Harris' lone 3 of the game with 15:56 left pulled Wake Forest to within 44-43 before Snaer ignited the run that gave Florida State a 67-46 lead.
The Seminoles (15-13, 7-8 Atlantic Coast Conference) led 40-34 at halftime while winning for just the second time in their last six games.
Travis McKee led Wake Forest (12-15, 5-10) with 15 points, but was limited to a single free throw in the second half.

Huggins' contract, recruiting and Tavon
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. - The views from (warmer) here:
In case you missed it, Huggins has a rewritten contract and will now coach in Morgantown until, at least, 2017-18 before assuming an Emeritus status with WVU through 2023.
It was a very good move by Mountaineer athletic director Oliver Luck. There had been rumblings Huggins was getting more and more frustrated. While he always appears at all Mountaineer Athletic Club gatherings, other WVU coaches routinely bow out, even if such appearances are specifically called for in contracts.
Huggins gives much of his time. Perhaps that's why it was appropriate the contract extension was awarded at Thanksgiving.
"His passion, caring and love for the university and the state of West Virginia is incredible," said Luck.
That's why - if anyone deserves a $3 million coaching contract - it is Huggins. Perhaps more than his team's 2010 Final Four appearance, Huggins seared his imprint in the state's fabric with his appearance at the Upper Big Branch tragedy site and work with the UBB Family Fund. He's helped with causes from the state's Read Aloud program to the Norma Rae Huggins Cancer Fund in memory of his mother.
Of course, on the court, Huggins has led WVU to five straight NCAA tournament appearances, including that Final Four appearance and an amazing victory over an ultra-talented Kentucky team.
But Luck was smart to extend Huggins' contract for reasons beyond that. The coach not only is beloved in the Mountain State, he has incredible pull. If Luck needs a financial gift to his athletic program, whom is he going to send to meet a wealthy donor?
You know the answer. Maybe he could send football coach Dana Holgorsen - but with Huggins in tow to help.
Luck also must realize the unique situation he's in with Huggins. West Virginia University is not the most well-heeled university. Coaches like John Beilein and even state native Rich Rodriguez have used the school of late as a stepping stone.
More than likely that will continue with Holgorsen, if he succeeds. Huggins, though, is a slam-dunk Hall of Fame coach not looking to move on. He doesn't seem interested in moving to Michigan or Ohio State or any other larger school.
And where will Luck, or any other WVU athletic director, ever find a sure-fire Hall of Fame coach willing to do that after Huggins?
The coach, by the way, was thankful.
"The nice thing," he said, "is [WVU officials] came to me."
Elijah Macon, formerly of Huntington Prep, currently at Brewster Academy, is a four-star recruit. Brandon Watkins, a 6-foot-10 center and nephew of Huggins' friend Warren Baker, also had scholarship offers from Memphis, Clemson, Georgia and South Carolina.
On paper, the gem has to be four-star Devin Williams, a forward at Montverde (Fla.) Academy, originally from Cincinnati.
Perhaps not since another Devin - Ebanks, now with the Los Angeles Lakers - has Huggins landed such a highly regarded recruit. Yes, he also signed four-star recruits like current starter Jabarie Hinds and washout Noah Cottrill, but Williams had quite a list of suitors.
Huggins had to love the fact that Williams turned down offers from Ohio State, Memphis, Pittsburgh, UCLA, Virginia Tech and Xavier, let alone those from USC, North Carolina State, Tennessee and Illinois.
Again, though, Williams is the best on paper. Insiders, however, will tell you to watch Macon.
Off paper, he's the best of the bunch.
Perhaps WVU's new sparkling practice facility is beginning to pay off.
The Mountaineer football player was simply spectacular against the Sooners. A school record 344 rushing yards in his first college game at running back? A Big 12 record 572 all-purpose yards?
Sure, Austin's performance came in a WVU loss. It came on a weekend on which Kansas State and Oregon lost, which vaulted Notre Dame to No. 1.
But if basketball player Jack Taylor of Grinnell College can become a national star for scoring 138 points against Faith Baptist Bible College, can't Austin get a little love for 572 yards against Oklahoma?
"Want me to tell you the truth?" Huggins said. "When somebody beat my [behind] when I was young, they had to beat my [behind] the next day. And the next day. And the next day."
I asked WVU deputy athletic director Mike Parsons about the Classic setup, specifically why Marist was the Mountaineers' opponent.
"That [Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference] is the host," he said, "and it always has a team in it."
Against WVU on Thursday, the hosts couldn't have been more gracious.

couldn't you just give them a light spay of laquer to keep the rust off?
I love the G5 Montecs. I had a quiver full of Montecs and Rages, but after double lunging a whitetail, and following the bloodtrail for 200 yards before finally finding her, and drilling a coyote through both lungs, and never even finding blood, I gave up on the rages. The montecs fly every bit as true as the rages do, but in my opinion, cause much more carnage.
Plus, in the timber, on a real quiet day, when you let loose a Montec, it screams its way to the target!
Yes, there that good.
Shot an antelope with them this year and bllood was just pouring out of him!
i too shoot the montecs never had a issue so far accurate as all get out shot a buck at 50 yards went through its front shoulder and completely through a rib at 50 yards and blood pas everywhere recovered not even 60 yards from where the shot was overall great broadheads

(USA TODAY) -- A growing number of breast cancer patients are taking radical steps to avoid going through cancer again.
Although their tumors are confined to only one breast, more women are asking doctors to remove their healthy, unaffected breast as well to reduce their risk of finding another tumor later.
Authors of a new study say they may have found a way to help some of these women avoid unnecessary mastectomies, although other experts say the decision remains as difficult as ever.
Though tumors don't tend to spread from one breast to the other, women with cancer in one breast do have a higher risk of developing another, unrelated tumor in the opposite breast, says Kelly Hunt of M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, author of a study released today in Cancer, which tracked women from 2000 to 2007 Those additional tumors may be too small to detect when a woman's first cancer is diagnosed, making a preventive mastectomy a "rational" choice for some women, she says.
In Hunt's study, 25 of 542 women who opted for preventive mastectomies had cancer in the opposite breast. Her analysis shows that three factors increased the risk:
Hunt hopes her findings will help more of her patients stop worrying or questioning their decisions.
Other experts say the study may not help at all. It could even scare additional women into unnecessary surgery, says the University of Washington's Julie Gralow.
Very few of the women with such risk factors actually had cancer in the opposite breast, and doctors don't need to remove the second breast to protect women, Gralow says. She notes that doctors can often find these hidden tumors through the use of MRI.
Mastectomies aren't the only way to prevent a new cancer, says Eric Winer, a breast cancer specialist at Boston's Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. Women also can reduce their risk with hormones or chemotherapy.
And though a preventive mastectomy can give some women peace of mind, no study has shown that the surgery saves lives, Winer says.

Does anti-Semitism fly at Lindbergh Field?
Mira Mesa residents Michael and Victoria Barzilli see discrimination differently than many of us do. They've seen it up close.
In World War II, the Nazis sent Victoria's paternal grandparents to the Auschwitz concentration camp and shot her maternal grandfather's first wife and their daughter. Half a century later, some of Michael's teenage baseball teammates spray-painted a swastika on his family's garage.
Such stories came to mind when the couple learned about the anti-Semitic views of aviator Charles Lindbergh, the namesake of San Diego's airport.
The discovery propelled them into action, and they launched a campaign in November to change Lindbergh Field's name. The effort didn't go very far, but I obtained one of their letters this week as I wrote a column on the fate of the San Diego airport's well-known Lindbergh mural, which airport officials may destroy but which I and most readers want to keep.
To share thoughts on the Lindbergh mural with the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority, email spokeswoman Diana Lucero at email@example.com. Please copy me at firstname.lastname@example.com.
"I think once you're a hero, you're always a hero," one reader told me about Lindbergh.
But is that so? Shouldn't we consider both Lindbergh's aviation accomplishments and his anti-Semitism? And how would we even weigh them?
Maybe the Barzillis are right, I thought. Maybe the mural shouldn't go back up on the airport's commuter terminal despite the public's outpouring of support.
In Lindbergh's most controversial speech — in 1941 — he said: "Instead of agitating for war, Jews in this country should be opposing it in every way, for they will be the first to feel its consequences. Their greatest danger to this country lies in their large ownership and influence in our motion pictures, our press, our radio and our government."
After the speech, a PBS biography on Lindbergh noted, "Civic and corporate organizations cut all ties and affiliations with him. His name was even removed from the water tower in his hometown of Little Falls, Minn."
The panels making up the San Diego airport's Lindbergh mural had been taken down for building repairs for several months when the Barzillis learned about the aviator's past from Victoria's dad. The state of the mural and a major airport renovation spurred the couple to write a letter to airport officials.
"We kind of thought maybe this is the time to say something because if you don't say something now, then it's going to be too late," Michael told me.
Their letter documents Lindbergh's belief in eugenics, or the superiority of one race over another, and Lindbergh's rise and fall as an American hero. He gained fame for making the first solo nonstop flight from New York to Paris in 1927 in a plane built in San Diego. Then he faced heavy criticism for promoting appeasement and isolationism during World War II.
To make their case, the Barzillis cited online research and quoted remarks that Lindbergh made in diaries, articles and speeches, such as this one: "Whenever the Jewish percentage of total population becomes too high, a reaction seems to invariably occur. It is too bad because a few Jews of the right type are, I believe, an asset to any country."
Their letter also featured this quote from President Franklin Roosevelt to his treasury secretary in May 1940: "If I should die tomorrow, I want you to know this, I am absolutely convinced Lindbergh is a Nazi."
The Barzillis signed off by describing Lindbergh as "unquestionably un-American."
"As two direct descendants of Holocaust survivors, we are deeply saddened that our home city has an airport named after Charles Lindbergh," the couple wrote. "To remove that stain on our city would mean so much to the Jewish community and would send a clear message to our citizens and our youth that being of moral character is important."

How To Repair Rust - Repairing RustWritten by on December 29, 2010 Home Shop Rust Repair For The Novice
I'll begin this by stating that I may be a jack-of-all-trades, but I'm surely a master of none. That said the following is another peek into my home shop and at how I am going about redoing my '57 Chevy pickup cab. Now, those readers who are actual accomplished body repair techs may not completely agree with my techniques but this is how I've taught myself to accomplish minor body repair and patch panel installation, and I'm hoping it'll at least serve as a primer for those considering tackling similar repairs on their own.
Speaking of patch panels (and/or restoration components in general) I've chosen to utilize those offered by LMC Truck Parts. To be totally honest, the components I've purchased and used so far have been about the highest quality and most affordable priced replacement parts I've used in years-well-deserved kudos to the folks at LMC.
The body rot I'd found on my truck cab was pretty typical for GM products of the era. The worst was in the cab corner areas, and more but less extensive rot was on the cab floor, rockers, and door steps. Luckily, though, the common rust and rot in the door hinge pockets were miraculously missing so I dodged a bullet in that respect. I'll start out by replacing the driver-side door step assembly and the left cab corner; I'll tackle the other rust-damaged areas in future installments.
More Photos From This Article View Slideshow
Initially I spent a lot of time sitting on a stool with this LMC catalog in my hand as I gazed back and forth between my cab and the appropriate catalog pages. The exploded views and clear parts listing made the compilation of my first order pretty easy-the hardest part was which damaged area to start on first.My first LMC order ended up being a pretty sizable one. I ordered door step panels, cab corners, a cab mount set, a bed step and support, and a quartet of replacement fenders. The parts arrived in just a few days, and they were shipped damage-free-an actual first for me as repair panels I've ordered from other sources in the past were packaged with much less care than that exercised by LMC Truck. First, I'll concentrate on the left side door step and cab corner shown.I began with the easy part-cutting out the rust-damaged sections of the cab. When I cut out the cab corner area I ran into quite an unpleasant surprise. Literally 2 inches of body filler stretched from the lower parts of the cab corner to about 11 inches above the top edge of the LMC cab corner patch panel. As you can see, that corner of the cab was not only home to a good amount of body rot, but also a large section of collision damage that was beat into submission and covered under a massive amount of body filler. Looks like it would end up being much more complicated than just installing a repair panel ...Once I gathered my wits (after surveying the metal damage to the corner) I turned my attention to the replacement of the door opening step. I cut out the rusted step portion with a combination of my plasma cutter and a couple of cutoff wheels.With the step plate removed and the kick panel portion of the step assembly cut loose around its perimeter, the kick panel section still wouldn't budge. Upon closer inspection I discovered a series of spot welds that attach the kick plate to reinforcement on its back side. Once I center-punched and drilled out the spot welds the panel released its grip and came loose.The LMC step panel fit perfectly in the door opening. I spot-welded it into place along the top edge of the kick panel portion and drilled the front and rear step flanges and rosette-weld 'em in one spot each. I did this because the door was off the cab at this point, and I didn't want to finish welding the panel until the door was remounted, and I was sure the gap at the door bottom and rocker section of the repair panel was equal.With the door remounted and the gap at the rocker double checked for uniformity I then tacked in the new LMC cab corner. As you can see, there was a lot of panel deformation above the cab corner where the cab had been hit. I'd cut out as much of the stretched, torn, and damaged sheetmetal as I could-the balance would have to be massaged back into shape-oh joy.The impact had not only crumpled the sheetmetal but it had pushed it forward into the door opening as well. In order to move everything rearward to where it should have been and to try and remake the vertical body line, I fashioned an attachment for my dent puller. I welded two sections of 3/4-inch rod together at one end, leaving one end open and a 1/8-inch gap between the two. To this I welded a nut to one of the bars and threaded it onto the dent puller. I then slid the assembly over/under the sheetmetal and beat the panel into submission. This moved things rearward quite a bit while maintaining the vertical body line at the rear edge of the panel.
Next, I fashioned a couple of homemade repair panels. I had to do it in two sections as there are a few compound curves that I knew I'd never be able to fabricate in one piece. The first was a small section that made up a radius between the rear cab panel and the cab corner. Since it was rather small (approximately 3x8 inches) it was pretty easy to form by hand.Once I got that piece formed and welded into place it left me with one final rather large piece to bend up and install.Grabbing an appropriate-sized piece of sheetmetal out of my scrap pile I trimmed it to size and hand-formed a bit of a curve in the rear edge. I then placed it into the hole with the aid of my handy Eastwood sheetmetal patch clamps to hold it into place with a nice even gap between the patch and the old panel. The gap works perfectly; you can fill it with weld for a nice flush fit and minimal grinding.With the welding and grinding complete the cab corner looks pretty darned good-especially for a wannabe bodyman like me. With a bit of hammer and dolly work at the welds the repair will require just a thin skim coat of body filler to make it right.But, before I started slinging mud, I had to address the door gap. Though I'd pulled it back quite a bit there was still a pretty tight section in the gap midway down the door opening. The easiest way for me to correct that was to cut out a section of the panel edge and rework the opening in that area-luckily it worked out pretty well.I then gave the area a thin skim coat of body filler (this shows the first thin coat and first shaping). Before going any further I spent a little while positioning and welding the joint between the rocker area of the door opening step and the cab corner.And this is where I ended my afternoon. There's still a lot of work to go and it'll entail another LMC parts list or two, but now that I'm on a roll it'll hopefully begin to come together pretty quickly. Hopefully this will motivate those of us who are on the fence as to whether try and tackle a chore like this. As long as you've got a welder it's a job that I hope everyone will at least attempt to tackle-because like I always say, if I can do it anyone can.

WHEELING - Each week, The Intelligencer and Wheeling News-Register brings you the most updated stats in the Ohio Valley featuring the areas leaders in passing, rushing, receiving, scoring and kicking.
A question that was asked recently was ''who has the best quarterback rating?''
Entering last week, St. Clairsville's Matt Kinnick (Big School) and Steubenville Catholic's Brenton Colabella (Small School) were the leaders in yards per game, but where do they rank among the most efficient quarterbacks in the Ohio Valley?
The passer rating is defined as a measure of the performance of quarterbacks or any other passers. There are at least two formula currently in use: one officially used by the National Football League and the Canadian Football League, and one used in college football. Passer rating is calculated using each quarterback's completion percentage, passing yardage, touchdowns and interceptions.
A perfect passer rating in the NFL is 158.3. A perfect passing efficiency in college football is 1,261.6.
For high school purposes, we are using the college formula, which is (8.4 x yards) + (330 x touchdowns) + (100 x completions) - (200 x interceptions), all divided by attempts.
Sound complicated? You and I both. But you always hear about it so we thought it would be fun to see who the leader is among local quarterbacks.
And the winners are ...
Ground Gainers
Aerial Attack
Good Hands Team
Mr. Everything
Wrecking Crew
(Weekend wrap only includes teams that called or emailed their stats on Sunday).

May 29, 2016
Mississippi casino revenue continued to tumble in January, with gamblers losing less than in any other January since 1997.
Statewide casino revenue fell 9 percent to $161.2 million, according to Mississippi Department of Revenue figures.
The state's gambling halls eked out a 1 percent gain in 2012, because revenue rebounded after most Mississippi River casinos were affected by 2011's floods. But year-over-year casino revenue has fallen in every month since July.
The 18 river casinos from Tunica to Natchez won $77.9 million, down 13 percent from the $89.2 million they won in January 2012. The 12 coastal casinos won $83.3 million from gamblers, down 5 percent from the $87.8 million they won in January 2012.
The numbers exclude Choctaw Indian casinos, which aren't required to report winnings to the state.

I love Tom to death, but this was his worst game in recent memory. He didn't have any really bad throws, nor did he make any horrible decisions, but I felt his overall management of the game was awful.
It seemed that the blitz was coming hard & heavy and Brady saw this, and entirely ignored it. He didn't change the play, use a hard-count to diagnose who was coming... he simply stood there and made no adjustments. It seemed that he took what the defense was showing, and accepted it. There was no attempt to better the chances of the offense to succeed. I would expect better from an elite QB. Tom is elite, no doubt, but he needs to play like it.
My other major gripe was his management of the Amendola near-touchdown. He slowed the tempo, got their jumbo package out there, and they proceeded to kick a FG. I would've like to have seen him hurry up to the line, and sneak it in. The Bengals had their nickel package out there, and no doubt they could've gotten a TD. By subbing and allowing the Bengals to do the same, they set themselves up for failure at the goalline.
Now that's not to say Tom was entirely to blame. Amendola had some drops, as did Edelman and Bolden. The talent around Tom didn't perform well today, but nor did Tom himself. Overall, it was an awful offensive performance. Putrid, to say the least.
Thanks to the defense for another strong showing. You guys are for real, and us fans know it. Keep it up.
This loss isn't a back-breaker by any means. We all knew the Falcons-Bengals-Saints stretch would be a tough one. I think most fans would be pleased with coming out of that at 2-1. We've got a tough game against the Saints next week, but one we can win. That Saints team isn't the same on the road, and Gronk should be returning. If the Pats can pull that one out, they'll be fine.
Not to mention that the Bills and Jets are no threat. The only in-division opponent worth noting is Miami, and if they were to lose today, we'd still be a game up in the division. Everyone knew this team would lose at some point, but that never makes a loss any easier to swallow. But when we all step back and be rational, I think we can say this team is in fine shape. We've got a competing defense, and an offense that will get healthier as the year goes on. 4-1 is a fine start to the season. Again, this team would lose at some point -- we all knew that. Let's be rational and realize we're 4-1 and in perfectly fine shape.

Honda's Foreman: A Proud Lineage Of Hard-Working Machines
Honda officially introduced the very first All Terrain Vehicle to America in 1970. This unprepossessing machine, the US 90, was quickly rechristened the ATC90 and it birthed an entirely new segment of off-road riding. Although it initially made its name as a recreational vehicle, the ATC soon caught the eye of farmers, who instead saw a valuable tool that could be applied to a sizable void in their field-literally speaking. As these machines made their way into the workplace, Honda engineers followed so they could gather first-hand data that would steer the course of evolutionary improvements in this particular application.
People who earned their living outdoors couldn't find praise high enough for these little workhorses. On the farm, a tractor cost exponentially more to purchase, outfit and maintain, and an ATV uses roughly eight percent of the fuel necessary to feed a tractor. Consequently, utility usage exploded in the 1980s and ATVs became multi-purpose machines, serving both recreational and utility purposes. As the market's swing toward utility continued, Honda's research made it clear the next step in the ATV's evolution would be another wheel. Thus Honda's first four-wheel ATV, the TRX™200, debuted in 1984.
1984 TRX200; The four-wheel workhorse
Factory-equipped for work with standard front and rear racks and powered by a durable, single-cylinder four-stroke engine running through a five-speed dual-range transmission with shaft drive and reverse, the TRX200 was truly a wonder in its time. The market responded with a roar, making 1984 Honda's biggest sales year ever for ATVs. The 370,000 units delivered in 1984 remain the high-water mark for Honda ATV sales, and they comprised no less than 69 percent of total ATV sales in the U.S. that year.
1986 FourTrax 350 4x4; Four-wheel-drive technology arrives
Almost overnight, four-wheeled ATVs became the tool of choice for a wealth of outdoor professions. But there was a strong call for more advanced technology. So in 1986, Honda unveiled the first full-time four-wheel-drive ATV. The FourTrax™ 350 4x4 arrived at its coming out party in grand style-lowered from a helicopter to show all four wheels moving under their own power. Honda's four-wheel drive workhorse featured a limited-slip front differential, and it also boasted a tough 350cc four-stroke engine, vibration-reducing counterbalancer and a fan-assisted oil cooler as standard equipment. In short, it was a machine born to work, and work hard. One year after the successful launch of the FourTrax 4x4, the celebrated Foreman name was born. From the factory, the 1987 FourTrax Foreman 4x4 included front and rear racks, a high-output 310-watt alternator and a remarkably brawny 850-pound towing capacity. But as far as its legendary reputation for hard work and extraordinary durability is concerned, that came from the everyday users out in the field.
1995 Foreman 400 4x4; Honda's efficient longitudinal engine layout
With amazing speed, a huge portion of the American workforce comes to view the ATV as a vehicle capable of getting thousands of different jobs done faster and easier. In short, the Honda FourTrax Foreman becomes an essential part of the great American toolbox. In America, having a Foreman on the job makes a host of tasks more efficient. And so the 1995 Foreman™ 400 4x4 introduced the working world to the strongest, most efficient Honda ATV yet. Powered by an innovative longitudinal engine design that positions the crankshaft perpendicular to its axles, the 400 Foreman's front and rear drive shafts transfer power to all four wheels with fewer power-robbing directional changes, fewer parts, less weight and a lower center of mass. A new overhead-valve design shortens the height of the engine, permitting more ground clearance and a lower center of mass. Weighing up to 50 pounds less than its rivals, the Foreman also proves to be a nimble machine when the workday is over and the fun begins.
1998 FourTrax Foreman 450; More innovations for the American workplace
In 1998, Honda's largest and most powerful ATV arrives in two 450cc versions: the manual-shift Foreman S and the electric-shift Foreman ES Electric Shift Program™ (ESP™)-another Honda innovation. Introduced in a market increasingly drawn to automatic transmissions, the ES is named the ATV of the Year by ATV Magazine. Combining the convenience of an automatic with the control of a manual gearbox, ESP allows Foreman ES riders to shift up or down with push-button ease while also delivering the durability and engine braking of a conventional transmission.
2001 FourTrax Foreman Rubicon; The age of true automatics arrives
Responding to market demand for even more hard-working horsepower and a true automatic transmission in an ATV with Honda innovation and durability, the 2001 FourTrax Foreman Rubicon is introduced in the spring of 2000. The largest, most powerful multi-purpose Honda ATV ever is also the most innovative. Muscle from its liquid-cooled longitudinally mounted 500cc engine flows through an all-new, continuously variable Hondamatic transmission with enough original ideas inside to have more than 100 patents pending. The Hondamatic is compact, quiet, rugged, maintenance-free, sealed against external contaminants, and features engine braking-all refinements lacking in widely used but less sophisticated belt-drive transmissions. Honda's most powerful multi-purpose ATV, the Rubicon features many innovative design features of its siblings: dry-sump overhead-valve engine; torque-sensing front differential; and ESP-controlled shifting in addition to the automatic shifting modes.
2005 FourTrax Foreman TRX500; Three variations on one hard-working theme
Since its debut in 1998, the TRX450 has gained a tremendous following, but an all-new and bigger-displacement FourTrax Foreman succeeds this worthy precursor. The 2005 TRX500 features a completely new engine and frame, and it can be had in three variations: an super-affordable two-wheel-drive version with conventional shifting; a manual-shift four-wheel-drive model; or four-wheel-drive with ESP. The 4WD models feature a host of sophisticated amenities including TraxLok and Honda's torque-sensing front differential. All three models share a brand-new air-cooled OHV 475cc four-stroke engine mounted longitudinally in the frame, super-heavy-duty automatic clutch and a patented new dual oil-cooler system. And the chassis is all new as well, boasting dual front disc brakes, next-generation shocks and new SUV styling.
For nearly two decades, the Honda Foreman name has come to be synonymous with the work environment all across the USA. It's impossible to gauge exactly how much more productive the American workforce has become, thanks to the various iterations of the Foreman, but without a doubt the impact has been large indeed. As we enter 2005, a question that's even more difficult looms ahead: Just how many more job-site applications of the Honda Foreman will the American workforce dream up in the coming years?

2013 AMSOIL/STREET RODDER Road Tour Leg 3Written by on February 7, 2014 The Speedway Motors Tour
The Speedway Motors Road Tour started off with a bang at the 44th annual NSRA Street Rod Nationals Plus in Louisville, Kentucky. Next up our destination for the Speedway Tour was Speed Week at Bonneville.
Sunday afternoon the Speedway Motors Tour traveled from Louisville to St. Charles, Missouri. Monday morning we made a quick stop at the Man Cave store on historic Main Street in St. Charles. It was a 425-mile trip onto our destination of Lincoln, Nebraska, the home of our Road Tour sponsor Speedway Motors.
Tuesday morning it was a short drive to the huge Speedway Motors facility that is home to their retail store, the mammoth warehouse facility, and the Smith Collection Museum of American Speed. Our first stop was the retail store and warehouse. They have the mail-order business down to a science. The quality control and speed that gets every package out the door at such a rapid pace is incredible. Next we headed across the parking lot to the Smith Collection Museum of American Speed.
A lifelong labor of love for the Smith family of Speedway Motors fame, the collection is unequaled in the United States. The four floors contain race cars, hot rods, pedal cars, rare auto accessories, toys, and automobiles. After our tour we gathered in what is known as Bill's Garage. (We shared a moment of silence to honor Joyce Smith and her contribution to the founding of The Smith Collection.)
By 1 p.m. we headed east on I-80 about 30 miles to the Strategic Air & Space Museum. The displays inside told the story of the Strategic Air Command and its role during the Cold War following World War II. Tuesday evening we were invited to a special car cruise put on in our honor by the Lincoln Rebels Auto Club. Thanks to everyone who helped organize the get-together and also to everyone who turned out to say "hi".
It was a 500-mile drive from Lincoln to Denver on Wednesday. Once we checked into our hotel it was a short drive to artist Darryl Mayabb's studio, and to his and wife Sharon's beautiful home at the foot of the Rocky Mountains. Everyone enjoyed the tasty pizza and Darryl presented two of his signed PPG posters to everyone in the group. Darryl gave us a personal tour of the studio and we heard firsthand the stories behind many of his creations.
It was a great time at Darryl and Sharon's home and studio. It was the type of evening that makes our AMSOIL/STREET RODDER Road Tours so special.
After our evening in Denver we were up early and heading over the Rocky Mountains on I-70. Once you come down out of the mountains, Grand Junction is the first city that you come to on I-70. Just past Grand Junction is the Utah state line and the wide-open vastness of that area.
From Grand Junction it was about one hour to our destination of East Carbon and famous customizer and car builder Bo Huff. Bo has greeted the Road Tour on a number of occasions and it is always a fun experience. Bo was a great host and was ready with soda, water, and snacks. It was a good time at Bo Huff's collection and he invited us to stop back whenever we are in the area.
Friday about noon we arrived at the Salt Flats. We gathered for a group picture then headed east to our hotel in Salt Lake City.
Saturday morning we loaded into two passenger vans for the 100-mile drive to Wendover. It was the perfect way to spend the day as we were shuttled around the course. Many thanks to Road Tourians Scott McNair and Kathy and Cal Williams for the fantastic job with the tents and cold beverage that greeted us when we arrived at the Salt Flats.
It was a great week on the Speedway Motors Tour. While some folks headed home on Sunday many of us were ready to saddle up again on Monday morning to head back East on the Autopalooza.org Road Tour to Detroit and the Woodward Dream Cruise.
Go to the Road Tour section of streetrodder.com for expanded coverage of this and all of the tours. You will also find a 2014 Road Tour schedule available online.

Once inside the warehouse you get a feel for how huge the inventory is at Speedway. This is just a small portion of the mammoth facility.The Smith Collection Museum of American Speed has been a labor of love for the entire Smith family and many dedicated volunteers. There are four floors of cars, parts, and automobilia that are timelines of hot rodding and auto racing in America.The staff and volunteers at the museum are very knowledgeable about all the items on display. We were divided into two groups and spent about two hours enjoying the in-depth tour.On Wednesday we headed west to Denver and the home of automotive artist Darryl Mayabb. Darryl and his wife, Sharon, welcomed us to their home and Darryl's studio.If you have been a part of rodding over any of the last 25 years, odds are you are familiar with Darryl's artwork. He is responsible for NSRA T-shirt art, PPG posters, and he even did the original rendering for our first Road Tour car way back in 1996.During our visit Darryl let us get a look at his next rod project. This 1948 Anglia Thames panel is painted Mayabb Yellow and is currently under construction at Zoomer's in Denver.We arrived at the Bonneville Salt Flats on Friday as activities were ramping up for the week of speed trials ahead. It was a perfect opportunity to get a group picture of all of the Speedway Road Tour participants and their vehicles.It was very hot and very sunny on the Salt Flats. Thanks to local Road Tourians we had a number of pop-up tents waiting for us when we arrived on the course.

|Mike Smith Construction to build new city garage
|Written by April Peregoy
Mike Smith Construction has landed the job of constructing the new storage garage that will be built just east of the City of Holyoke offices to replace the old garage damaged during high winds on Nov. 6, 2008. Smith was chosen after Holyoke City Council members examined bids from three competitive companies vying for the job at the Holyoke City Council meeting Tuesday, March 3. Smith, as well as two representatives from Landmark Construction of Sterling, were at the meeting to try to persuade council members in their decision. The other bid entered was from Yost Construction, also of Sterling.

Had a quick look at some of the Preview offerings this year. I typically buy one, though, in the era of internet everything, there's often very little that out-does what NHL.com will do for you.
I did see one piece that I thought was amusing in light of NAS's A Little Tired of #37 thread. I think it was the Hockey News had "Best 50 Players Right Now." Lucic, Krejci, Chara and Rask all made the list, and Patrice Bergeron came in at #7 or #8. The blurb underneath his name read something like: "If Patrice Bergeron isn't Canada's second-line centre at the Sochi Olympics, there should be a national inquiry...."
Better get NAS a vomit bag.
This wasn't some moronic hack, either. It went under Ken Campbell's by-line.

5 Steps to improving your 3PL relationships
VESTED OUTSOURCING IMPLEMENTATION FRAMEWORK - Source: Vested Outsourcing: Five Rules that will Transform Outsourcing
February 24, 2011 - LM Editorial
Step 3: Align interests
This step entails designing and documenting how a company and the service provider will work together to achieve the desired outcomes.
In basic terms, this is the part of the process where both companies should document, with as much precision as possible, how the outsourcing company and the service provider will work together to achieve the desired outcomes. It's the first pass at the future vision for how the two companies will communicate, collaborate, and innovate together to achieve the best results.
This brings us to our sixth tip: Identify risks before you transition the work. While it's not clear if the parties took the time to align interest, we have to assume that the parties—at least the service provider—likely did not do a proper risk assessment.
We hypothesize that if interests were aligned and a proper risk assessment was performed in the relationship, Armstrong would not have stated "it was evident pretty much from the start that it wasn't going to work." Obviously the parties got out of the gate on the wrong foot.
Step 4: Establish the agreement
Vested Outsourcing is based on reducing the total cost of ownership (TCO) versus simply the costs of the transactions performed by the service provider. As such, 3PL pricing models should include incentives that will be used to reward the outsource provider when they achieve the desired outcomes and TCO targets.
This brings us to our seventh tip: Establish a pricing model with incentives that encourage service providers to put skin in the game and invest in your business to close the gaps. As mentioned before, the Armstrong case study cited that "the arrangement was not meeting Armstrong's established costs and service goals."
One approach they could have taken was what we call a "fee at risk" pricing model. This is when a service provider charges below market rates for service—but then is rewarded with incentives for delivering results against the desired outcomes. The more successful both parties are, the more profit the service provider makes, often two to three times market rates. A true win-win because the companies become vested in each other's success. The more successful the company is, the more success the service provider is.

Fort Dodge and Waterloo Tailgate Tour Multimedia
WATERLOO, Iowa - On a hot day in Fort Dodge and the Cedar Valley, the biggest of crowds turned out Tuesday for the first stops on the second of three Cyclone Tailgate Tours. The warmth of the crowds made it a special time for Iowa State's head coaches, staff and student-athletes.
The day began in Fort Dodge with a Cyclone lunch celebration at the Willow Ridge Golf Course. Iowa State head football coach Paul Rhoads spoke to an audience that filled the main lounge and the bar area. It was standing room only.
"To come out here and see all of you people here reminds us that we are all a part of something special," Rhoads said. "We have had some great players from Fort Dodge including Nick Moser and Kurtis Taylor and a pair of tight ends now on our roster, Drew Mitchell and Reid Branderhorst."
Iowa State Athletics Director Jamie Pollard affirmed the excellence by nine-time All-American Lisa Koll, the nation's premier collegiate distance runner and a Fort Dodge native.
The evening session was at the Cattle Congress in Waterloo. Pollard loved the turnout.
"The size of the audience tonight is the biggest we have had yet on the tour," Pollard said. "Thanks to all of you and the Cedar Valley for your support of Iowa State athletics."
The evening ended with all the children of those in attendance coming to the stage and yelling "Go Cyclones."
"When I came here, people would always say to me that they became a Cyclone because their parents brought them to games at Clyde Williams Field or Jack Trice Stadium," Pollard said. "That is why we do this."
For fans who met ISU head men's basketball coach Fred Hoiberg, head women's basketball coach Bill Fennelly, wrestling head coach Kevin Jackson, head volleyball coach Christy Johnson-Lynch or soccer head coach Wendy Dillinger, it was a night to remember.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP)- Seventh seed Connecticut and No. 8 Kentucky have joined Florida and Wisconsin in the NCAA men's basketball Final Four.
Shabazz Napier scored 17 of his 25 points in the second half as Connecticut downed No. 4 Michigan State 60-54 to win the East Regional of the NCAA men's basketball tournament at Madison Square Garden. Napier hit three huge free throws with 37.6 seconds left to put the Huskies ahead 56-51.
The 30-8 Huskies rallied from a nine-point second-half deficit to become the first No. 7 seed to reach the Final Four since the tournament expanded to 64 teams in 1985.
Aaron Harrison and the Kentucky Wildcats ended Michigan's bid for an NCAA men's basketball title by defeating the second-seeded Wolverines 75-72 at Indianapolis.

The game was tied at 72 until Harrison drained a 3-pointer from NBA range with 2.3 seconds left, moments after Julius Randle inadvertently tipped in the tying shot on Michigan's previous possession.
Harrison scored all 12 of his points off 3-pointers in the final 8:05.
