Shades of the Past Hot Rod RoundupWritten by on July 27, 2007
In our hobby, it is known by many names: Shades of the Past, Pigeon Forge, and, sometimes, merely Shades. Its official name is the Shades of the Past Hot Rod Roundup. Whatever you called it, it means one thing: a gathering of high-quality street rods and musclecars. The event has taken place on the Friday and Saturday after Labor Day every September for the last 24 years, and it has become one of the most popular and prestigious runs of the year.
What takes place in a green flat section of land in the rolling hills just outside of Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, is a cross between Woodstock and "A Field of Dreams." And, as it is said in the movie, "Build it and they will come." In 2006, they came in droves, as 3,055 folks registered for the event. That was almost 300 more than in 2005. The vendor area and swap meet cover an area as large as a football field.
As is the case with many events, the year of the vehicles have been shifted over the years, first including cars up to 1964, and then, beginning last year, vehicles up to 1972 were allowed. Speculation from club members is that it will stay at 1972 for the immediate future.
Two aspects of the Shades run are the giveaway cars and the Top 25 picks. Once again this year, two cars were given away. A very clean 1963 T-bird was the prize for the 1,747 folks who had pre-registered by May, and Jimmy Posey of Hokes Bluff, Alabama, was the lucky T-bird winner. All 3,055 folks who were registered for the event were eligible to win the Bobby Alloway-built '32 highboy roadster, but Harrison Henry from Loudon, Tennessee, had his name pulled as the winner at the awards ceremony on Saturday.
The Top 25 picks at the Shades run are some of the most sought-after awards in our hobby. On Friday morning, a team from the Shades of the Past Street Rod Association walks through the judging area and picks the Top 25. These vehicles are put on display in a special area all day Saturday. Of the 25, Bob Johnson's Barracuda was named Best of Show Post-1948, and Seth Wagner's Willys pickup was named Best of Show Pre-1949. In addition to the Top 25 picks, there were 16 specialties award winners. These vehicles were given special recognition by companies, organizations, and celebrities in our hobby.
It was a great two days in the beautiful hills of Tennessee. Next year is the 25th edition of the Shades of the Past Hot Rod Roundup, so you need to go if you have never been before. And if you have been before, then you already have it marked on your calendar.

There are always some interesting items in the swap meet. This 1939 Fiat Topolino coupe race car was built in 1959 and sits on a modified 1934 Ford frame.The Wild Willy Roundup is an annual show within the show. Sponsored by SoffSeal and Clayton Custom Cars, the Saturday morning event brings together a great group of all types of Willys hot rods.Carol and Jim Mayberry's Heritage-bodied 1933 Ford Victoria sits on a highly modified Ford '33 chassis. The wheels are from Billet Specialties and the power comes from a Motor City Flathead.Bob Johnson won the Best of Show Post-1948 award with his incredible Alan Johnson-built 1971 Barracuda. To the delight of the crowd, he made good use of the Boyd Coddington-crafted trophy sword by carving up a watermelon.Seth Wagner won the Best of Show award in the pre-49 class. The Legens Hot Rod Shop-built '41 Willys was one of the Great 8 finalists at the Detroit Autorama earlier in the season.Tim Williams started with a Rat's Glass 1932 Ford three-window body. He wanted his rod to have a Salt Flats theme, so he installed an interior roll bar, bomber seats, detachable headlights, a 502ci motor, and, of course, a number on the door.
Valerie and Philip Dummer's '36 Ford pickup is called Redwood, and the modifications would fill a book. The cab has been chopped and extended; a Heidt's Superide was mated to a highly modified Ford Ranger chassis; and all four fenders are handmade steel, with the power coming from an SBC.Nancy and Bruce Borne's 1939 Chevy convertible started life as a coupe.

Three people are arrested for stealing from a church in New Bern.
On January 20th New Bern police arrived at Harvest Time Church on Oakwood Avenue to investigate a break in. Police discovered $1,600 of electronic equipment was stolen.
In less than 24-hours police arrested 19-year old Margaret Quidley, 23-year-old Charles Srnek and 18-year-old Zachary Stephens at Spike's Pawn Shop on Trent Road in New Bern. All three live on the same block as Harvest Time Church.
Senior pastor Clarence Langford's church, Fountain Life Fellowship Church, is right around the corner from Harvest Time Church. He says 20 years ago the neighborhood use to be one they could leave their doors unlocked...but not anymore.
Stephens and Srnek are charged with breaking and entering a place of worship, injury to real property and felony larceny. Quidley is charged with possession of stolen property.

paint.net ftw by ElieaWatch
©2010-2016 Eliea
I've used mspaint for a long time. When I got married nearly 5 years ago hubby introduced me to paint.net. And I haven't gone back since.
It's the perfect mix of all the things I loved about mspaint, with some of the great things I desired from photoshop or gimp, but without the lag on my poor outdated computer.
Seriously, layers, anti aliasing, gradients, patterns, etc.
I still have to use something else to animate but I can do that free online.
If you haven't tried paint.net it's free!
What are you waiting for? Check it out!

Azra's Group
His shop is situated under the street, and this is the reason only a few customers are attracted toward the shop. Because of this, he decided to move the general store toward the market. His children are growing up, but there is not enough space left at home for their privacy, so the store needs to leave that drawing room. But he does not have funds to hire a shop, to open the general store in another place.
Therefore, Azra requested a loan from Kiva's field partner, BRAC Pakistan. She will provide the loan funds to her husband, to enable him to hire the new shop, for moving the general store toward the market. She praises for this cooperation, and says thanks to, Kiva and its field partner, BRAC Pakistan.

The Norwegian elkhound, also called grahund, is a breed of wolflike hound dog known for existing since the Stone Age. The double coat is very thick, coarse, weather-resistant, and stands off the body. The Norwegian elkhound may be any shade of gray with lighter white and darker black areas. Ears are large, erect, and pointed. The tail is very fluffy, set high on rump, and tightly curled over rump. Eyes are oval, large, and very dark brown. With its bold and energetic demeanor the adult stands 19-21 inches (48-53 centimeters) tall at the shoulders and weighs 40-50 pounds (18-23 kilograms). The Norwegian elkhound has been used to hunt elk, moose, lynx, bear, wolf, and small mammals, to herd reindeer, and as sled dogs. This breed is a good companion to children. The Norwegian defense minister has the power to mobilize all privately owned elkhounds during wartime to carry military supplies over snow on sleds. Fossilized skeletons of the Norwegian elkhound dating back to the Stone Age were found in Norway and are very similar to today's breed.

Bake sale misses world record but raises plenty of dough for cancer
Published: Sunday, October 14, 2012 at 9:13 p.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, October 14, 2012 at 9:13 p.m.
NEW SMYRNA BEACH — Kathy Browning, a freelance writer and food blogger, didn't break a Guinness World Record on Saturday, but she raised more than $10,600 for pediatric cancer research.
"We gave it a good shot," she said by phone on Sunday. "This is attainable. We learned some valuable lessons this year. Next year."
Browning set her sights on selling 10,000 baked goods and raising $26,000 for Cookies for Kids Cancer, a nonprofit group that raises money for research. To break the record she needed to sell more than 9,654 baked goods, which was the record set by the "Great American Bake Sale" at Grand Central Station in New York City on March 29, 2011.
She sold 2,327 items and raised $5,300. The cash raised was matched by the OXO, a New York-based manufacturer of kitchen utensils and other household products company to bring the total to $10,600, Browning said.
The sale was held on Canal Street in conjunction with the monthly Canal Street Cruise classic car show by the East Coast Cruisers of New Smyrna Beach.
"Some people wanted to make donations, so we went shopping and purchased items for local food banks in Daytona Beach," Browning said.
All items were sold for $2, but some packaged with two or three cookies sold as one.
"We probably sold more than 6,000 items," Browning said. "We wanted to make it a good deal for everyone."

What the numbers are showing us
How average people are building great wealth
Join the NASDAQ Community today and get free, instant access to portfolios, stock ratings, real-time alerts, and more!
Many investors implement some sort of technical analysis in
their decision-making process when entering or exiting a position.
This may include looking at a chart to spot historical support and
resistance points or examining moving averages as key guideposts.
While mastering technical signals can be difficult, one suite of
exchange-traded notes takes the guesswork out of following the
trends of the market.
Earnings Season Is The Right Prescription For
Healthcare ETFs
The RBS U.S. Large Cap Trendpilot ETN (NYSE:
) follows a systematic method of being long the S&P 500 Total
Return Index when the market is above its 200-day moving average
and in three-month U.S.Treasury bills when it is below.
Simply put, this ETN seeks to avoid large drops in stocks by
moving to the safety of cash when the market falls below its
long-term moving average for five consecutive days. TRND will then
reallocate back to stocks when the market has traded back above
this key trend line for another five consecutive days.
The allowance for multiple consecutive days of trading above or
below the trend line is likely to help avoid whipsaws or bad
pricing data that can negatively impact performance.
Currently, this ETN has more than $340 million in total assets
and charges an expense ratio of 1.00 percent. It's also worth
noting that investor fees are reduced to 0.50 percent when the
portfolio is tracking cash.
Those fees are in stark contrast to the 0.05 percent expense
ratio of the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (NYSE:
), which tracks the same underlying index of stocks. However,
investors in TRND are paying a premium for the ability to avoid
significant draw downs and bear markets that can weigh on total
The advantage of the strategy implemented in TRND is that
emotions and predictions are removed from the equation. This allows
for a seamless transition between cash and stocks that is
implemented according to a strict rules-based methodology.
In addition to large-cap stocks, RBS has also implemented a
trend following approach for several other key indexes as well.
Some examples include: RBS Gold Trendpilot ETN (NYSE:
), RBS NASDAQ-100 Trendpilot ETN (NYSE:
), and RBS Mid Cap Trendpilot ETN (NYSE:
These innovative exchange-traded notes may further popularize
the old saying that "the trend is your friend."

"The Apple city: A perfect family adventure :)" Saint-Hilaire by Marie-Claude
Saint-Hilaire Travel Guide: 2 reviews and 9 photos
Saint-Hilaire is a nice city to get apples between September and October. The trees are full of apples! They look as the branches will fell from to much weight... There is a lot of orchard where you can go pick yourself the apples. On the south side of the mountain you have a lot of them but we prefer a calmer one on the north side: "Le verger du flanc Nord".
And you can go hiking on the mountain, as you can see, there is a nice view.
Reviews (2)
Don't miss the Apple season in Saint-Hilaire. It is gorgeous for the nature, and delicious for the apples, ciders,... more travel advice
There is nice paths that goes around the mountain, some take only 1 hour walk other more, you choose what is best for... more travel advice

The topic of this article is disputed.
Do not edit this page unless the content you are adding is consistent with the idea of the article.
In the ROBLOX game and website, a scam refers to an event, action, or operation in which one player or a group of players attempt to defraud others of their virtual currency, items, or complete accounts by compromising for items, Builders Club membership, or other services and products that benefit the player in an attempt to gather information against the individual.
An interest, a purchase; no result, no refund. This shameful act of Blackmail is crucial for players to monitor carefully. These are not harmful to one's account, but they involve currency.
- These scams will do variable damage; it all ranges on the money spent and whether the player is eligible for a refund or otherwise.
- T-shirt scams - The perpetrator will have a shirt with a name such as "Admin for Reason 2 Die" or "Mod for Twisted Murderer." The perpetrator will sell the t-shirt for a low price and will say the t-shirt will give admin to a certain game.
Refundable: No.
- Classic Blackmail - The perpetrator will advertise a service or product for a fixed fee, usually sold on T-Shirts.
Refundable: No.
- Drawn Portrait Scam - The perpetrator will run a series of advertisements on the site, advertising that the player can be drawn for a fixed fee (which is never revealed until a player clicks on the advertisement). Once the player has bought the item, the perpetrator will turn hostile and refuse to perform the advertised service.
Refundable: No.
- Administrative Scam - The perpetrator sells a T-Shirt that enables "VIP access" to a place that does nothing in return.
Refundable: No.
Update: As of 2012, ROBLOX has introduced game passes, which can be sold directly on the game's page. This makes VIP shirts less easier to counterfeit, since a real version of VIP can be sold as a game pass.
- Borrowing Scam - The perpetrator asks to donate or trade money for a temporary period of time.
Refundable: No.
- Limited Feeding - The perpetrator sells a Limited item (often LimitedU) for a very cheap fee, and when a player has purchased it, the seller can begin to raise the price repeatedly, requiring the player to "feed" them money.
Refundable: No..
- Invisible Shirt - This is a very well known kind of scam where one makes a shirt without any features, or darkens it a bit, and says it'll be transparent or invisible. Refundable: No.
- Players should always be sure to contact
firstname.lastname@example.com they were scammed. They must include evidence, or ROBLOX can't refund them. Before you buy something sketchy, and you think it's a scam be sure to SCREENSHOT: BEFORE YOU BUY THE ITEM, WHILE YOU ARE BUYING THE ITEM, (for evidence if you know this scammer has done this before, to ban them from future scams.) AND AFTER YOU BUY THE ITEM! The evidence may have to include picture proof of the scam. Including the scammers username.
Phishing Scams
The unlawful act takes place when a player takes the bait of having a service or offer, and in-turn creates malicious results reaching to the extremity. The most harmful scams and attacks are Phishing Scams, and depending on the severity, one can lose access to their entire computer if they are not cautious enough. For those who don't know what Phishing means, The definition is labeled in bold, italic, and underlined at the bottom above "Avoiding scams."
These are more than scams! These are attacks on innocent players by criminals who need not only currency, but objects, places, and blatantly anything else that can be helpful to them. Also, a recent act of account phishers is that they will upload sexually explicit places.
- These scams will do variable damage, ranging from "taking a few Robux" and "causing as much damage as a computer virus".
- Login Info by ROBLOX Messaging - The perpetrator will message a player, asking for his/her username and password in return for a benefit.
How to know: The fact that someone asks for your login is a pretty good sign of a scam. Be very careful with giving other people your account information.
- Login Info by Survey - The perpetrator will comment on items or places, asking for players to participate in a survey to get a "special offer", or anything similar.
How to know: Posting a link that leads to an external website other than ROBLOX, YouTube, Twitter, or twitch.tv, especially short URLs which hide the true website.
- Login Info by Email - The perpetrator will comment on items or places, asking for players to give account information to an email address.
How to know: The user will list explicitly false reasons that seem convincing to an amateur ROBLOX player.
- Login Info by Fake Exploit - The perpetrator will comment on items or places, directing players to a link that gives an exploit tool for the ROBLOX client.
How to know: The "exploit tool" will prompt one for their login info.
- Confidential Info by Keylogger - The perpetrator will comment on items or places, directing players to a link that downloads an executable program onto the player's computer. When executed, the program injects a Keylogger into the system files.
How to know: Antivirus programs will try to quarantine the executable you've downloaded.
- .ROBLOSECURITY Scam - The perpetrator convinces a player that the ROBLOSECURITY cookie must be given to them.
How to know: Read this article for more information on the .ROBLOSECURITY cookie.
- Fake maintenance message (Only appears in places) - As far as known, This type of Phishing scam only appears in places such as places with the title "Beat obby for 250 or whatnot ROBUX. It will look like a maintenance message telling the user that they must log back in. When it will really feed the perpetrator the victim's account information. How to know: Administrators will NEVER send maintenance inside of a ROBLOX game window. Just don't type in any information. There is an image in the image section regarding this if you would like to get an idea what one of these kinds of scams look like.
Fake beta server - As well as scams that require your personal information, fake beta servers have a log in form that looks very realistic, but it's fake, and tells that when you log in into there, you get a fake ROBUX reward that needs to be posted on several number of games. But it actually just steals your information. Here's the link to this fake website to check it out by yourself: robloxbetaserver.com
"Phishing is an e-mail fraud method in which the perpetrator sends out legitimate-looking email in an attempt to gather personal and financial information from recipients. Typically, the messages appear to come from well known and trustworthy Web sites."
Definition from: searchsecurity.techtarget.com/definition/phishing
Avoiding Scams
Avoid roblox.click, this scam affected 10K+ accounts. It can and will steal your Robux and/or steal your account
- When buying catalog items, players are encouraged to look for [ Content Deleted ] in the item's description. [ Content Deleted ] is an indicator that the item somehow violated ROBLOX's Terms of Service.
- If no players have bought a VIP shirt, players are advised to avoid purchasing it until more users have done so.
- Avoid links that lead to sites other than ROBLOX, Youtube, Twitter, or Twitch. This includes shortened links (TinyURL, bit.ly, or similar). Follow off-site links with caution!
- While buying a VIP shirt, players should check to see if the creator of the place has condoned the selling of this shirt. For example, there are many fraudulent versions of VIP for the game "Catalog Heaven" although the only legitimate versions of the VIP are sold by Seranok (previously by Merely).
- If the asset comments are not disabled, such usually being a sign of a scam, read them to see if any other users say whether the place is not legitimate. Note, though, that the perpetrator may have made alternative accounts (or hacked into others) to promote said scam, so check for accounts that claim it's a scam.
- When preventing portrait scams, check the scammer's inventory for any stolen artwork. In addition, a user can check to see if the total amount of drawings in the seller's inventory is fairly close to the total number of "get drawn" assets sold; any huge discrepancies in the total number of people drawn and assets sold hints towards a portrait scam.
- Some scammers have their names listed on alternative accounts' descriptions stating they are scammers. While this is not always the case, if there are a large amount of these accounts, this is something to be wary of; try avoiding these people.
- If a user follows an off-site link that goes to a log-in page, do not put any information in it. The page is most likely a phishing scam.
- Avoid programs not created by the ROBLOX developers that ask for login information. Similarly, avoid downloading files (particularly .exe) that you do not know the source of.
- Try avoiding buying Limited or LimitedU items with a price of over 50,000 R$, as these have a high chance of being scams.
- Acknowledge that comments such as "Builderman told me how to get this reward by doing_______" are scams, and no reward is given for posting those types of comments.
- Since summer 2014, Girl ROBUX scam messages have been surfacing. The best thing to do to stop these from happening is setting your inbox to Friends and upper by going to the Settings gear icon in the top right corner of the webpage -> Settings -> Privacy -> Who can message me dropdown, Choose friends -> Update to save changes.
- After Ticket Removal, the number of Free Robux/BC scams might increase. Do not trust Free Robux/BC scams! To avoid this scam, look at the player's character for proof.

"Gorgeous. Just what we wanted. The gold ink is a bit difficult to read, so for our wedding invites, we darkened the color a bit. But it's so beautiful!"
"My Save the Date magnets came out absolutely beautiful. I added several lines to the design and the designer was able to fit everything in wonderfully! I am extremely satisfied with the finished product and will definitely order from Wedding paper Divas again!"
"WPD makes it so easy to customize font and colors. Even the stuff that doesn't have a text box when in the personalize stage of ordering, they were able to change. They turned out beautiful!"
"The design of this card was perfect for the overall feel our wedding is going to have. I love it! The designers were quick and easy to work with. I just needed a few tiny changes and they were right on top of them. Shipping was pretty quick too!"
"We chose the pink accented Destination Journey postcards and they are absolutely perfect for our needs. The cute, quick snap shot of the couple and their stats is adorable and so personal...I just love it! We chose wedding paper divas because we are able to purchase as many or as little of an item as we need. We can purchase as little as 10-15 cards...and with great quality of feel and print. We are having a small intimate wedding and being able to order what we need without having all these extra cards/invites floating around is great for planning and lessening waste. We will be buying from WPD for our invitations, menus, etc ...the whole suite! Highly recommend."

The basis for the lessons teachers use to make children stronger readers and more critical thinkers is being thrown out, but what will replace it isn't known yet.
Teachers have been revising lesson plans for the past three years to include a new set of standards called Common Core.
The goal of Common Core was to teach students how to think more analytically in all of their classes. Teachers spent more time showing students how to identify key details and authors' main ideas in fiction and nonfiction essays and texts.
Students were taught to see how lessons in one subject applied to another, such as how strong reading skills also are used in social studies, and how math skills are used in science.
Teachers in lower elementary and upper high school grades use Common Core lessons now, and every grade was supposed to start using the standards next school year.
But last year state lawmakers halted the expansion of Common Core after parent groups across the state raised concerns about how well the new standards would prepare students for college and careers.
Forty-five other states were set to start using Common Core, and parents worried that state officials would lose control over how Indiana students are taught because they would have to meet policies agreed to by other states.
State senators have approved a proposal ending Common Core in the state, and the bill is being considered in the House. The Indiana State Board of Education is creating a new set of standards for schools to use next fall, but at the moment no one knows what the new expectations could include.
That means teachers don't know whether they'll have to change any of their lesson plans before next school year, and they might not know until the spring or summer. If Indiana's new standards exclude Common Core principles, teachers will have a harder time finding textbooks and materials for their students and collaborating with their peers across the country, Greenwood assistant superintendent of learning Rick Ahlgrim said.
State officials also shouldn't realistically expect to be able to create a new set of standards that are ready to use in six months, Ahlgrim said. Planning for and launching Common Core has taken several years, and so did creating previous standards.
"When you consider what the process is for researching and developing standards, it takes years," Ahlgrim said. "It's not something that ever happens between February and spring. Standards aren't developed like that."
Local school officials have said Common Core isn't better or worse than previous standards, merely different.
Common Core had fewer lessons, so teachers could spend more time teaching students to analyze what they were learning. That kind of critical thinking is what students need so they can answer detailed essay questions and apply one subject to the lessons and assignments taught in other subjects, school officials said.
At Franklin schools, students read more nonfiction and informational text and learn how to gather information about the point the author was trying to make. During the past three years, the number of students passing both the math and language arts sections of ISTEP has risen, partly because of the Common Core-based lessons, Superintendent David Clendening said.
State officials could decide to combine elements of Indiana's old standards with parts of Common Core, and Clendening said he hopes Indiana will continue to focus on developing students' critical thinking and reading skills.
Moving away from Common Core also means schools might have a harder time finding affordable textbooks or online programs. If 45 states across the country use the same standards, textbook companies are likely to gear what they publish to those states, Ahlgrim said.
Teachers also could have fewer opportunities to collaborate with their peers across the country, Ahlgrim said. Teachers from local schools spend hours each week reviewing how well particular lessons and teaching styles work for students. Under Common Core, teachers were talking with their peers from other states, learning about how different classroom methods were working across the country.
"It's a large and vibrant, just lively community of educators who are coming around common standards and collaborating to an extent that we've never seen before, with all 50 states having individual standards. And it's definitely going to be unfortunate if what they decide here removes us from that community," Ahlgrim said.
The state also will need to decide how to assess students next spring. This school year was supposed to be last time ISTEP was used to assess how well third- through eighth-graders understood what they'd been taught in math and science. Indiana had been preparing to switch to one of two Common Core-based assessments to test students, but if the state leaves Common Core, officials may have to prepare students for a whole new exam.
"If they, July 1, decide on a set of standards, what kind of high-stakes assessment are they going to have ready to go in 10 months?" Ahlgrim said.

Manhattan Sees Gains in Condos
Sales activity in the Manhattan condominium market continues to perk up, although prices remain below year-ago levels.
In February, prices for condominiums throughout Manhattan were down 9% compared with a year earlier, but they were about 4% higher than in January, according to the RPX index designed by Radar Logic Inc.
A few neighborhoods actually posted price gains in February, according to the latest data. The largest increase was posted in the East Village/Lower East Side area, although the number of transactions was small, researchers at Radar Logic said.
The Upper West Side and Murray Hill/Gramercy neighborhoods also saw prices increases in February from a year earlier on a more substantial number of transactions.
All other neighborhoods posted declines in February, Radar Logic said.
Transactions counts in Manhattan condo sales in February were up 91% from a year earlier and rose 26% from a month earlier, according to Radar Logic.
The RPX index is calculated using prices per square foot and is based on closing records of transactions taken from public sources.

The intimate Resnick Education Wing hosts free performances for little ones, featuring terrific musicians playing a vast range of music from world to folk. These highly participatory concerts encourage creativity and bring out the child in everyone.
Carnegie Kids is generously supported, in part, by an endowment gift from Linda and Earle S. Altman.
Additional support is provided by Alexey Kononenko and Diana Toyberman.
To better understand the effect of music in early childhood development, Carnegie Hall commissioned a new research paper from Dr. Dennie Palmer Wolf, an expert in the field. Titled "Why Making Music Matters," her research points to several key reasons why investing in children early and often is critical to healthy development and a successful future—and that music can play a role in everyday interactions that support our next generation.Download

Aotearoa & New Zealand: A Historical Geography
By Alan H. Grey
The last ten years have seen dramatic changes in the role of the state in New Zealand. In some instances, the state has withdrawn from people's lives, but in others, it has become increasingly intrusive. In these essays, ten leading experts on New Zealand politics discuss the significance and impact of the changing role of the state on various aspects of New Zealand life. In the process, they analyze the wider theoretical implications of the powerful ideologies behind the reforms.

UPDATE: Via Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports, Perkins' extension is for four years, $34.8 million. That's $8.75 million per year.
So much for that "he doesn't really want to be here" stuff.
The Thunder announced that Kendrick Perkins has signed a multi-year extension. Terms were not disclosed, though those will come out soon enough.
"We had a unique opportunity to enter into discussions with Kendrick to solidify his future with our organization," said Sam Presti in a press release. "We are pleased to know that he will be a part of our core group now and in the future. Kendrick's blue-collar, team-first approach aligns with the vision we hold for building a sustainable team in the Oklahoma City community."
Perkins (6-10, 280) owns career averages of 6.4 points, 6.1 rebounds, 1.4 blocks, 1.0 assist and 22.3 minutes in 454 NBA games. He has appeared in 12 games (7 starts) this season with the Celtics before being traded to the Thunder on February 24th, averaging 7.3 points and 8.1 rebounds in 26.1 minutes. The center has appeared in 68 career postseason games, averaging 6.9 points, 6.8 rebounds, 1.5 blocks and 25.7 minutes.
Perkins, originally selected in the 2003 NBA draft (27th overall) by the Memphis Grizzlies and then traded to Boston on draft night, was a Parade and McDonald's All-America at Ozen High School in Beaumont, TX. He helped lead Ozen to a 96-3 record during his final three seasons, averaging 27.5 points, 16.4 rebounds and 7.8 blocks as a senior.
So why now? Why did Presti ink Perkins so quickly? It's a bit complicated. Keep Reading…

Blizzard at G-Star 2012Posted 12 Nov 2012 by
The GStar convention went off this weekend in Seoul Korea, and while we didn't get any new Diablo III info from the show (as we did in 2011), since Blizzard's presence seems to be entirely focused on green-lit Pandaland demo areas, they did host a pretty good cosplay contest. Some pics of that can be seen below, from our Diablo Cosplay gallery. (Pics from the galleries here and here on Korean sites, but I grabbed all the Diablo-related shots.)
Better yet, Bashiok, (AKA "Uncle-B" to his Asian fans) is representing Blizzard at G-Star and during some other ongoing Asian press tour events, and he set up a Weibo account for the duration. Weibo is basically Chinese version of Twitter, and Bashiok's been using it to post amazing new secret info about the Diablo III expansion!

text: If you've ever found yourself in the baking section of the grocery store staring at the range of coconut products available and not sure what the differences are, this post is for you! Coconut can be purchased sweetened or unsweetened and in a variety of forms and textures. Depending on the recipe you're making, you'll want to choose one kind over another. Making a savoury recipe? Chances are, you'll be needing unsweetened coconut, like in this Coconut Chicken Tenders recipe. If you're making something sweet, both kinds are used, depending on how sweet the other ingredients in the recipe are. As for coconut textures, here's what you need to know! • Desiccated coconut: Desiccated coconut has little to do with the size of the coconut, but rather with the amount of moisture left in the meat. Desiccated coconut basically means that the coconut meat has been dried and that it now contains much less moisture than the initial fruit. • Shredded coconut: Made up of thin strands of coconut, shredded coconut looks a little like grated cheddar cheese. It's usually available both sweetened and unsweetened. • Flaked coconut: Flaked coconut is made up of larger, coarser pieces than the shredded kind.

Classic Look, Cold Toes
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
I wanted these boots for the intention of keeping my feet warm during the winter. Lets just say they weren't the best choice of winter boots I could have bought. Super comfy and pretty "grippy" in the snow, also waterproof which is a plus. Love the looks of these boots and they are super light. But unfortunately my toes are always cold when wearing these.
Solid Sorels
Another shoe that my wife loves. She has always been a fan of Sorels and loves how cozy and warm this model is. The added traction makes these great for Utah winters.
Love love love!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Sorel's are my absolute fave. These boots really do the trick. Comfy cozy, warm, grippy, and very cute! Loooove!

Highway inspections
Highway inspections are necessary to identify associated defects, the need for routine/planned maintenance work and unlawful obstruction/interference with the highway.
- Legislation
Section 41 of the Highways Act 1980 imposes a duty on the highway Authority (Hampshire County Council) to maintain those roads, footways and cycletracks that are 'Highways maintainable at public expense'.
Section 58 of the Highways Act 1980 states that a statutory defence against third party claims is provided where the Highway Authority can establish that reasonable care has been taken to 'secure that the part of the highway to which the action relates' to a level commensurate with the volume of ordinary traffic such that it 'was not dangerous to traffic'.
Section 130 of the Highways Act 1980 places a general duty on the Highway Authority to 'assert and protect the rights of the public' in their lawful use of the highway.
The Roads Liaison Group's Well Maintained Highways Code of Practice for Highway Maintenance Management sets out recommended minimum standards of highway inspections.
- Policy
To ensure a consistent Countywide approach a formalised system that prescribes the frequency of inspections and the method of assessment, recording and actioning of highway defects has been adopted.
In order to satisfy Hampshire County Council's legal obligations a formalised system of highway inspections shall be adopted and carried out.
There are three types of highway inspections that shall be carried out on Hampshire's highways
scheduled inspections shall be carried out to identify highway defects or instances of obstruction or interference that are deemed to be a danger to highway users and thus require immediate attention to protect the highway user and keep the highway safe.
condition inspections shall be carried out to assess the condition of the network and the need for planned structural maintenance.
specific inspections shall be undertaken following a particular request, need or demand, where there are exceptional circumstances or in response to claims being made against the Highway Authority.
All defects identified from highway scheduled and specific inspections shall be prioritised into treatment types according to the severity of the defect and likelihood that it will present a hazard to road users. This priority designation shall also determine the timescale for remedial works;
Category 1X (Emergency) Defect – complete rectification (make-safe, if not rectify) within 2 hours
Category 1A Safety Defect – complete rectification (make-safe, if not rectify) within 24 hours
Category 2B Safety Defect – complete rectification (make-safe, if not rectify) within 10 working days
Category 2C Safety Defect – complete rectification within 2 months from defect being raised.
Category 2M Safety Defect – No action necessary at this time.
Other defects not prioritised as above do not require any remedial works action and shall be monitored for deterioration.
- Scheduled inspection frequencies
Category Frequency each year 2 Strategic routes 12 3(a) Main distributor 12 3(b) Secondary distributor 12 4(a) Local interconnecting roads 4 4(b) Local access roads 1
Category Frequency each year 1a Prestige walking route 12 1 Primary walking route 12 2 Secondary walking route 4 3 Link footway 2 4 Local access roads 1
Category Frequency each year I Part of carriageway as for roads II Remote from carriageway - surfaced as for footways
- Special Inspections
Frequency Safety fences - tensioning Every 2 years Drainage culverts - superficial Based on assessed flood risk but every 3 years as a guide and up to 5 years in lower risk areas. Petrol interceptors 2 Cattle grids 1 Non illuminated traffic signs - retro reflectivity Reactive White lines - retro reflectivity Reactive

Origins Available: Italian, Spanish
The surname Escamilla was first found in Rome (Italian: Roma), the capital of the Kingdom of Italy. Little can be said in the space available which would do justice to the history of this beautiful city. From 1000 B.C, its history is a book of life itself. The buildings, culture, arts, cathedrals, churches, museums galleries hold untold treasures unequalled anywhere else in the world. In those ancient times only persons of rank, the podesta, clergy, city officials, army officers, artists, landowners were entered into the records. To be recorded at this time, at the beginning of recorded history, was of itself a great distinction and indicative of noble ancestry.
Spelling variations of this family name include: Escamilla, Camilla, Camille, Escamille, Camillia, Escamillia, Ezcamilla and many more.
This web page shows only a small excerpt of our Escamilla research. Another 169 words (12 lines of text) are included under the topic Early Escamilla History in all our PDF Extended History products.

Nowadays, managers face serious tasks, problems and challenges that require a fully engaged workforce. However, it has been found that only thirty percent of employees around the world are engaged in their job. Gamification –defined as the use of game elements and game-design techniques in non-game contexts- can increase engagement by fostering employees' intrinsic motivation. Therefore, the aim of this thesis is to identify the key determinants for internal gamification to successfully enhance employee engagement. Following a Ground Theory approach, five semi-structured interviews with gamification experts were analyzed and coded into categories. Five categories of key determinants that contribute to a successful gamification design emerged: clear objectives, user-centred approach, context alignment, evolving design and intrinsic motivation. These key determinants were subsequently assessed by comparing them with the current body of literature on gamification, resulting in a concise and coherent framework of managerial implications. In addition, this approach allowed to identify discrepancies between researchers and entrepreneurs regarding their knowledge on gamification.
Our spring offer is a big discount for our two Industry Reports: 85% off from the original $1,500 down to $225 for the GAMIFICATION INDUSTRY REPORT that compares twelve gamification platforms.
And the second one is 66% off from the original $990 down to $330 for the SALES GAMIFICATION INDUSTRY REPORT that compares 24(!) gamification platforms. This report contains the twelve platforms from the Gamification Industry Report as well.
For whom is this report?
For anyone planning to engage and motivate employees, customers, and sales reps these reports give an overview of the top platforms on the market with a detailed analysis of the platforms' strengths and weaknesses and technical details.

The Turkish bank Türk Ekonomi Bankası (TEB) - part of the BNP Paribas-group - launched a gamified sales program named HIPPO to better track sales objectives and the performance of sales teams. With the help of the game elements it covers, the focal point of the users, which is "sales" itself, turns into a game which in return increases employee engagement, employee satisfaction, yet providing continuous performance.
Project HIPPO was the winner of the very first intrapreneurship program by (TEB). As a result of the developments that kicked off after becoming the champion of the intrapreneurship programme, HIPPO is live since December 2015 and is being actively used by sales team in TEB.
As one of the dynamics of HIPPO, users can create profiles. Once they create a profile, they can interact with each other on the system and get in contact to exchange information and share their expertise in any topic they would like. Thanks to the ability customized profiles, users declare that they now have a tool to better represent themselves at their workplace. HIPPO, being widely accepted and easily embraced by the users are HIPPO's key factors on the high ratio of being actively used.
Enterprise Gamification is Leadership 101
Mario Herger's book Enterprise Gamification is certainly an outstanding introduction to gamification. However, it is far more. While I am a novice at game development and gamification, I do consider myself to be knowledgeable and accomplished in the realm of leadership. As I read Enterprise Gamification, I could imagine an entire MBA Leadership and Organizational Behavior course based on this book. I was blown away with how richly Mario filled this book with studies and sources regarding individual and organizational behavior. In terms of truth in advertising, Mario was one of my advisers for my recent thesis in which I designed a serious, multiplayer, computer game to improve Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Regional Response Coordination Center training and exercises. I am now inspired to think more globally and imagine how to gamify FEMA and even the Department of Homeland Security to improve engagement, efficiency, and effectiveness. But, that is another story. I am not writing a book review here. Rather, I would like to share just a few nuggets out of Enterprise Gamification that leadership enthusiasts, like myself, might enjoy. The concept of applying these concepts through gamification quit simply makes the application of the principles more fun.
When I mentor young folks, I tell them that if I only had one piece of advice to give, it would be that you play the cards you are dealt. What this means is you are leading a team of individuals. They are all unique and motivated in different ways. Wait, did I just state the obvious? While we learned how we are unique as children from Sesame Street and Mr. Rodgers Neighborhood, we seem to forget it in our leadership styles. In addition to intrinsic individuality, each person's own motivation changes over time. An old, experienced, introvert may only need and want the task description and then runs off and takes care of it. A young, inexperienced person may need a little more hand holding or timely checks to make sure they are on track. Similarly, Herger refers to empathy-based design when he writes, "…understanding the motivations of players is a crucial part of making gamification successful." In other words, one must consider what motivates a player to make a good game. This is analogous to a leader needing to understand the motivation of employees/teammates in order to be effective.
