11.20.2009 / From the Creighton Athletic Office, The Voice of Billy Bluejay.
As much as I would not like to say it, the home opener on Tuesday against Florida A&M felt like a third exhibition game. It is a difficult task for teams like FAMU. Most of the programs in the low-major conferences such as the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) play virtually their entire non-conference schedule on the road in so-called "guarantee" games to collect funds used to keep their respective athletic departments afloat.
This certainly doesn't lend itself to competitive basketball, however. As expected, the Jays got out to a quick and large lead then tended to lose focus in the second half as the contest was well in hand and the opponent defeated.
Also, the trends that have established themselves early have continued:
Darryl Ashford continued to put together a solid stat-line from the wing, Ethan Wragge continues to hit shots, Wayne Runnels gets to the glass consistently and P'Allen Stinnett is showing more of a commitment to setting up plays for his teammates than he ever has in his career. There was a bit of shortness of breath early in the second half, with Antoine Young on the sideline with a banged knee. However, Coach Altman seemed confident in the press conference that Antoine was fine and would be ready come Sunday afternoon.
This Sunday's contest should carry a bit more of an edge than most of the early season home dates against competition from lesser conferences did. The Jays lost last year in a road trip against Arkansas-Little Rock. While I doubt the team will take the floor looking to even the score, the loss in Little Rock can easily be seen as one of the primary deficiencies that left the Jays watching on Selection Sunday.
The Trojans have lost both contests against Division-I competition this year, losing at Ole Miss and at Tulsa. As much of a concern rebounding has been this year, it was the inability of Creighton to assert itself on the glass last year in Arkansas that was a key driver of UALR's second half comeback. Plus, the Trojans have started the year outrebounding teams by an approximate 4.5 margin a game.
This game will serve as an opportunity to tune their performance as the big tests in Orlando loom for the holiday week. It should be a great Sunday matinee at the arena!
How do you think the Jays are doing so far? Do you have any early predications for the Orlando tournament? Please share them.

Does anyone know about the safety of electric cars for kids?
My daughter is almost 2 yrs old and my in-laws have purchased a Barbie electric car for my niece (3yrs old). I don't want my daughter riding in the vehicle because it doesn't sound safe. Does anyone have advice about the safety of these vehicles and how to handle this situation?

Fans of "Once Upon a Time" are patiently waiting for season 4 to air. Until then, there are some spoilers and fan theories that are quite interesting. On Aug. 2, Breathecast posted "OUAT" details. Fans can also look forward to learning the titles of three of the episodes as well as information on the character's storylines.
"Once Upon a Time" co-creator Adam Horowitz recently tweeted the titles of three episodes in season 4. The first is named "A Tale of Two Sisters," which will probably feature Elsa and her sister. It will be interesting to see how they come to Storybrooke, why they are there and what the "Frozen" characters plan to do.
The second episode title is called "White Out." It is being speculated that it might have something to do with the permanent winter mode in the movie. "Once Upon a Time" season 4, episode 3 is titled "Rocky Road." No information was given other than the title, but it sounds like things are not going to be easy for any of the characters this season.
As for the main characters, they will have their own issues to deal with besides Elsa. Regina's heart was broken last season when Emma brought Robin Hood's wife from the past to the present. Actress Lana Parrilla told Access Hollywood at Comic-Con 2014 that she doesn't think Regina knows what is going to happen. But she believes that she might take some time to think about how to mend her broken heart.
As for Elsa coming to Storybrooke, Parrilla doesn't think that Regina is worried at all. Elsa may have the power of snow, but Regina has fire. But the battle might not be so easily won and it seems that this is going to be an issue for several episodes.
Josh Dallas was also at Comic-Con and told TV Guide that Charming might have a connection with "Frozen" characters Elsa or Anna. He teased that there might be an unlikely friendship that developed in the past. Perhaps something that changed his life forever.
The synopsis for the fairy tale drama teases that Regina might turn back to her old ways. It also ponders the question of if she will use everything she has in order to get even. It ends with the statement that "not everyone can be trusted." Fans will have to wait to find out what will happen when "Once Upon a Time" season 4 returns to ABC on Sept. 28.

Just Google his name and these topics and the YouTubes should show up. Very good instructional information from an expert, and free.
And, best wishes for a safe, prosperous New Year to you and yours.
Thanks for the advice, Geobob.
I'm actually signed up for the defensive handgun course at Front Sight in Las Vegas! I'm beyond pumped. Anyone have an experience with Front Sight??

Many observers, supporters and detractors alike of onshore natural gas and oil, talk of the US example of private mineral rights as providing an example for the emergence of US shale while at the same time providing yet another support for the the "it will never happen here, so let's not bother trying" school.
Also at the same time, as Laszlo Varro of the International Energy Agency recently pointed out, US producers may be becoming complacent about public acceptance under their own backyards. I've consistently said common resource ownership could solve more problems than it raises in Europe. Could it also solve some US issues?
The idea that the UK, or most anywhere else, could enable public acceptance of shale via private mineral right ownerships is a blind alley no less fantastic than the notion we can have a decarbonised future using the technologies of today. Firstly, the rather obvious point is how the US private ownership model is virtually unknown anywhere else. Hydrocarbon and mineral resources alike have come out of the ground world-wide. Canada provides only the nearest example of a country with a long history of state owned resources and commercial exploitation.
Secondly, private mineral rights might just work in the Eagle Ford Shale, where places like McMullen County have a jaw dropping population of 707 people sharing over a thousand square miles. That makes the relatively wide open places of Chojnice County Poland, home to the upcoming if long postponed Gdansk Basin shale revolution, where over ninety one thousand people live within less than half of McMullen's size look like Hong Kong.
Moving to the UK, given that multi well pads can cover over 100 square K, it would ridiculous to divide up shale gas benefits to the hundreds of of thousands of property owners in Lancashire or Sussex. Any royalty checks would be barely worth the stamp cost in most areas. The freehold/leasehold system could see cheques going to people like the Duke Of Northumberland or worse. At best, it would enrich UK farmers already encumbered by any number of EU agricultural payments and could divide communities as much as unite them.
Finally, any legislative change to the process would slow down shale development far more than it already does. The UK and EU are not the USA and in this part of the shale revolution, and perhaps others, US analogues simply don't apply.
Moving to the US, I'm often reposted at Natural Gas Now, a site promoting shale gas in upstate New York. There in a rural area with bigger, and far poorer, farms than in Europe, the situation is different, but incredibly confusing to European eyes. I used to live in New York, although much close to New York City or within it, and let me assure you dear reader, that the politics behind UK, Irish, Polish or even French shale gas are as nothing compared to those in New York State.
The fundamental dysfunction of New York State is that something that looked good on a map in London in 1686 doesn't work today. However strange the form of ancestor worship known as the US Constitution looks to us Europeans, it won't be changed any sooner than our mineral ownership would be. This means New York State can be neatly divided, according to where you live, as "them" or "us". The vast majority of people live in the New York City metropolitan area, and are overwhelmingly Democratic. The minority of people live upstate, so we see situations where as some State Assembly members can literally walk across districts in a few blocks, people in upstate counties like Tioga share their representatives within a huge physical area.
From downstate "them" are Republican red necks. From upstate, "them" are New York City liberals. This leads to an us versus them narrative that transcends politics which explains a lot of how places like Tioga or Broome County, just above Susquehanna and Bradford Counties in Pennsylvania, (producing almost 40 BCM of gas between them), have sat the shale revolution out, despite their sharing the sweet spot of the Marcellus with their neighbours across the state line.
I have to cheekily point out here, that if the benefits of New York State's mineral riches were more widely distributed then the issue might be closer to resolution. Indeed given the importance of the shale debate in the US emanating from the "liberal" centres of not only Ithaca New York, home to Cornell University but from Manhattan, the entire debate in the US, and thus in Europe, could be said to stem from this historical accident.
Returning to the UK, the fact that shale energy belongs to all of us isn't made clear enough in our debate. Individual citizens won't become as rich as the Ewings or the Clampetts, but, for only one example, the single mother in a high-rise in Hackney will benefit as equally as the bourgeois of Balcombe or the nimby's of Lytham St Annes.
The issue in New York might actually be resolved if the single mother in the Bronx high-rise saw 62% of the value of the natural gas transferred to the New York State government. I suggest that the perpetual arguments between the state capitol in Albany and everyone else over spending would be helped by a change in the tax and or mineral rights ownership system.
But, just as in Europe, we won't see that happening so it's pointless to point that out too.
My heart goes out to the New York State landowners, but the failure of the shale debate in New York State provides some negative examples of US shale analogues - and some of those examples are turning up in surprising places. There's been push back on shale drilling in Dallas, judicial setback in in Pennsylvania itself, and big battles between the two cultural tribes of very left and very right who share Colorado:
A coalition of activist groups has submitted language to the Colorado Legislative Council for a constitutional amendment to give local governments authority to regulate oil and natural-gas development.
The US shale industry mostly provides very positive models of shale development for the planet, but we should also be aware that not all analogues are easily transferrable. Europeans are used to coalitions and the US model, which sometimes writes off huge parts of the electorate simply because they're in the wrong place, or the wrong political party, is not only inapplicable in Europe, but may need to be rethought at home.
The guys at Natural Gas Now are great guys, but it's shale that unites us, even as any discussion about guns or Obama might easily divide us. We need to include as many people as possible in the European gas debate, especially including those who we may disagree with on everything else. In the run up to the UK election next year, we especially need to reach out to all sides. Shale, despite the exaggerations of the Greens, won't really appear on the radar of most voters. But we can't afford to let it drop off entirely either.
Most of all we need some exploration and the results of it. Then we can move on or if people wish it, move out.

At yesterday's Tadashi Shoji show, the Moroccan-inspired clothing was perfectly complemented by an ethereal hairstyle and whimsical makeup. Lead stylist, Rodney Cutler, Redken Expert/Celebrity Runway Stylist for THE SALON at ULTA Beauty worked alongside ULTA Beauty stylist Jen McGann, to develop the look that was bohemian with just enough structure to offset the flowing garments.
Stepping away from the chaos of backstage, Cutler was able to share his tips for replicating the look at home.
- Start by blow drying hair using Redken Spray Starch 15 Heat Styling Spray for dryness and texture.
- Set with a 1.5 barrel curling iron along with Redken Powder Grip 03 Texturizing Hair Powder to create volume and grittiness.
- Use French lacing for fullness— but do NOT backcomb.
- Then, create a side part and separate hair into three sections.
- Braid the right side of the part to act as a cushion.
- Roll the opposite side of the part over the braid and set using Redken Fashion Work 12 Versatile Working Spray.

I was so surprised when Brenda announced on Facebook that she was buying a fender ukulele at guitar center and taking ukulele classes! As long as I've known Brenda, I've never even imagined that she would ever be interested in playing any musical instrument. She has always been involved in quilting, crochet, knitting, and other crafting projects.
When she posted on Facebook last week that someone actually asked her to play the ukulele at his father's birthday party, and he was going to pay her fifty dollars to do it, I was delighted! Apparently her lessons have paid off. I hope that someday she will upload a video to YouTube of her playing the ukulele so I can see and hear her play!

United States v. Plesha

U.S. Supreme Court
United States v. Plesha, 352 U.S. 202 (1957)
United States v. Plesha
No. 39
Argued November 8, 1956
Decided January 14, 1957
Under Article IV of the Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act of 1940, as it stood prior to the 1942 Amendment, former servicemen are not obligated personally to reimburse the United States for its payment of defaulted premiums on their commercial life insurance policies pursuant to requests made by them before the 1942 Amendment that their policies be protected under the Act against lapse during their time of military service and for one year thereafter. Pp. 352 U. S. 203-211.
1. The 1940 Act contained no provision which required reimbursement for premiums paid by the Government on a lapsed policy. Pp. 352 U. S. 204-205.
2. A right of the Government to reimbursement is not to be inferred from the Act or from the common law doctrine that a guarantor who pays the debt of another is entitled to reimbursement. P. 352 U. S. 204, n. 4.
3. The Government's claim for reimbursement is refuted by the legislative history. Pp. 352 U. S. 205-208.
4. The administrative interpretation of the 1918 and 1940 Acts does not support the Government's claim for reimbursement. Pp. 352 U. S. 208-211.
5. A serviceman's liability under the 1940 Act must be determined under that Act, not under the 1942 Act. P. 209, n 17.
227 F.2d 624 affirmed.

Let's make a deal. Give me a 3/3 green Elephant creature token, and I'll let you draw a card. Sounds okay, right? Wrong. Revealed today May 19, 2014 in an article by Matt Tabak on DailyMTG.com, with multiple players in a game Selvala's Charge from Wizards of the Coast's upcoming expert Magic: The Gathering set Conspiracy can create an overwhelming force for your opponent's to deal with.
Selvala's Charge - 4G
Sorcery (Uncommon)
Parley - Each player reveals the top card of his or her library. For each nonland card revealed this way, you put a 3/3 green Elephant creature token onto the battlefield. Then each player draws a card.
Selvala's arrival never goes unnoticed.
Of course one of the clear drawbacks to Selvala's Charge is that you're giving all of your opponents potentially more dangerous threats or spells to use against you. In formats like commander, someone's bound to be running multiple Wrath of God-like effects, and if they play a sweeper you'll be down an army and all your rivals will be up a card.
You can help mitigate the randomness of Selvala's Charge in constructed formats by running Courser of Kruphix or cards with scry in order to make sure that there isn't a land on the top of your own library. With a Doubling Season on the battlefield you'll be able to amass a large herd of elephants without any problems regardless of what cards other players reveal.
How will you use Selvala's Charge?

A 36-year-old Waite Elementary School teacher died Tuesday evening after collapsing during a workout at a West Liberty Street gym.
Dan Sherman was working out at CrossFit in Medina just after 5 p.m. when he collapsed, according to police reports.
Police reported they arrived within three minutes and attempted CPR before using an automated external defibrillator from one of their police cruisers to try to revive him.
According to reports, Sherman's head struck a barbell as he collapsed. Medina County Coroner Neil Grabenstetter said an autopsy had not yet been completed, so the cause of death was unclear Wednesday.
Sherman was a fifth-grade teacher at Waite and previously worked at A.I. Root Middle School as an English teacher, said Medina Schools spokeswoman Amy Busby.
He had been with the district since 2002.
"None of us can get past it today," Busby said. "Everyone is just devastated about what's happened.
"He was very young. None of us can believe it."
Busby said crisis counselors are on station at Waite and Root schools.
Sherman also was coach for varsity baseball and assistant coach for varsity football at Medina High School. Before that, he coached a variety of middle and high school teams.
A longtime friend of Sherman's, Nick Kaplack, said he was a mentor to his students and players and would be remembered as a family man.
Sherman and his wife, Alissa, lived in Montville Township with their two elementary school age children, Caleb and Lauren.
"Dan was a great husband and father," said Kaplack. "He's a great teacher, and he was a great baseball coach and mentor to a lot of players."
Kaplack, who coached Medina High School baseball with Sherman, said he'd miss his friend's sense of humor.
"He was always the life of the party, and he was just an all-around good guy," Kaplack said. "He was a really dedicated person to doing good things for people."
Family friends have started a memorial fund in Sherman's name: www.gofundme.com/9vu3i8. As of Wednesday evening, the fund had raised more than $29,600 for the family from more than 300 donors.
Sherman was a 2001 graduate of Ohio University and went on to get a master's degree from Nova Southeastern University in 2007. He was honored as a Master Teacher in May 2012.

My Skin Textures
Ok since the other thread I had started was a mixed thread of Gifs, pics, and skins it didn't make it here. I thought I got my own thread for filling it with any topic I wanted :confused: :p
just j/k :D
Anyway I took on the task of creating various textures for the players choice models - specifically the jedi_tf model. I of course have no idea how to make them work in a game yet or if you can add player choice skins to the existing models. Just in case not I created the model_ skin file too.
I made a little help page to reflect what I have done so far.
Players Choice Skin Help
I made 4 skins for this model and added some players choice skins as well. In the model viewer they all work great but I'm sure there's more to it. Besides the obvious they are not in pk3 format and there's no model icons in the zip files.
I hope someone finds these skins useful. There is a list here of what I have so far. There's over 30 in mostly standard glm models.
Index page
Nice work, good to see that SOMEONE has started editing it.
I've started editing some of the torsos and I've come across a problem with the robes. The "flaps" that appear under the belt only have a texture on one side, on the inside they are invisible. I know that invisible body parts are usually a sign of a typo in the .skin file but I've checked for that.
Here is an example of what I mean.
Lord Angelus
That's actually a shader problem. You need to make a shader to reproduce your texture on the underside of the robes. If you look in the players.shader file you'll find something like this for lucasarts' original skin:
cull twosided
map models/players/jedi_hm/robes02_lower
blendFunc GL_ONE GL_ZERO
rgbGen lightingDiffuseEntity
map models/players/jedi_hm/robes02_lower
blendFunc GL_SRC_ALPHA GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA
rgbGen lightingDiffuse
The "cull twosided" line is what makes the image show on both sides of the surface. Just stick in your texture's pathname in place of the original image and save it as a .shader file and it should fix your problem.
Its working now, thanks :D
*gets to work on skinning*
Lord Angelus
Can You
Is it possible from what you have seen so far to jus edit the costumes using the already choose able torso,legs, etc costumes to use them as base for changing them to a new costume ie-like some of the female twilek clothes seem idea for making into a slave girl(ala leia) outfit.

I want the Super key to behave as a regular modifier key, just like Ctrl, Shift and Alt.
Currently, it doesn't.
Using the System Settings to set a shortcut like Super+Up will set the shortcut, but the shortcut will be unusable. Pressing Super+Up instead functions just like pressing a single Up. The Super modifier is ignored and the shortcut never gets actived. Likewise for shortcuts such as Super+W (i.e. it's like pressing an unmodified single W).
I've used CompizConfig to unbind all Unity-related shortcuts, but Super still behaves in this weird, special way.
How can I create keyboard shortcuts such as Super+W that work?

Rated 5 out of 5 by pennyC Yummy Bread Pudding I had never made bread pudding before, so what a simple way to make this the first time around. Had a group of ladies coming for an evening gathering with Mardi Gras as the theme - there were plenty of complements from them and this was in traditional bread pudding country. Thanks for making the evening perfect. January 29, 2016

text: Sep 4, 2014 13:52 Baton Rouge leaders disheartened, others encouraged by gay-marriage ban decision Baton Rouge leaders disheartened, others encouraged by gay-marriage ban decision Daniel Bethencourt| firstname.lastname@example.com Sept. 3, 2014; 8:28 p.m. Comments Gay-rights activists and supporters in Baton Rouge are disappointed by a New Orleans-based federal judge's decision Wednesday upholding Louisiana's ban on same-sex marriage, while other local leaders are encouraged by the news. But the gay-rights activists also see the ruling in the context of a national legal battle they expect to lead to the U.S. Supreme Court. Joe Traigle, a Baton Rouge business owner and prominent activist for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender rights, called the ruling a "speed bump" in a larger shift toward recognition of same-sex marriages across the country. "Judge (Martin) Feldman is going to, in another year or so, look back and he will probably be the only federal judge in the U.S. that's ruled this way," Traigle said. "The tide of tolerance and acceptance is so strong that there's no turning this back." Matthew Patterson, the research and policy coordinator for Equality Louisiana, a statewide coalition for LGBT advocacy groups, said he was especially offended by the judge's comparison of gay sex to incest. The ruling "trots out arguments on procreation that are inaccurate and silly," Patterson said of the 32-page ruling, available online. "The level of contempt and dismissiveness is what stands out for me." The Rev. Keith Mozingo, pastor of the Metropolitan Community Church of Baton Rouge, said seven gay couples in his church told him they have considered traveling elsewhere to marry. Two of those couples told him that with a ruling upholding the state's gay-marriage ban, they are seriously considering moving to a state that will recognize them as a couple. "They were really counting on this ruling to be able to live openly as married people," he said. But Patterson remained optimistic about what he says is a larger trend toward such acceptance across the country, with previous judges ruling against gay-marriage bans. "I didn't think … we'd get to the point at which this snowballed the way that it has." Other community leaders, however, are happy with the judge's decision. Donna Carville, spokeswoman for the Catholic Diocese of Baton Rouge, said the ruling supports the church's views on marriage, though she declined to comment further. The Rev. Donald Hunter Sr., pastor of New Beginning Baptist Church, said he is glad to see a ruling in favor of the Louisiana ban. "I know it's going to be appealed," Hunter said of the ruling. "I am at least thankful that the federal judge again upheld the constitution of the state of Louisiana, which has been set forth by the people." Hunter added that his own personal opinion of the law is not as relevant as what the Scriptures say on the issue. "We don't have any discretion if you are a minister of the Christian faith to embrace any other doctrine or trend no matter how popular it may be," Hunter said. "We are confined and constrained by what has been set forth by God." Get The Advocate in your inbox Subscribe

Progress Reported in New Guadalajara - Vallarta Highway
Published Aug 6, 2014, 2:23pm -
Several news outlets in the region recently reported advances in the new four-lane highway that will significantly reduce travel time between Puerto Vallarta and Guadalajara. The project involves a 184 kilometer stretch between Jala, Nayarit, and Puerto Vallarta. While the entire project will not be complete until 2017, it is expected that 54 kms. between Jala and Compostela will be ready within the next 12 months, a 37% advance in the overall project. When completed, it is expected that the new highway will entice more visitors from Guadalajara and the Bajío region to consider Banderas Bay for weekend getaways and longer vacations.
The latest Google Earth updates show portions of the yet-to-be-labeled new highway under construction, running near the highway presently in place (Carr. 15).

After seven years of planning, coordinating, and constructing, the Sochi Olympics Organizing Committee is now confronting a huge challenge – how to ensure that all registered visitors have housing that they paid for.
As tens of thousands of officials, media personnel, volunteers, and tourists descend into Sochi, many are alarmed by the quality of their housing, assuming they can even locate it amidst construction zones. All along, they have been given assurances that their rooms would be ready for the entire duration of the Winter Olympics.
Washington Post reporter Kathy Lally was among the first to post an article complaining about her hotel room's condition, "The single room has two lamps which don't have light bulbs. There's no phone. The television doesn't work…."
Other media staff, among the 11,000 expected to cover the Sochi Olympics, have not been as lucky. Upon arriving at their hotel, their rooms were clearly not ready – as evident by construction workers sleeping on bare floors as reported by the AP.
Further, according to a Telegraph story, dormitories for the newly arriving contingent of 25,000 volunteers are still under construction, as these pictures taken by a Russian photographer reveal.
International Olympic Committee staff members, who have conducted periodic inspections in recent months, are now in Sochi for a two-day summit.
During their first day of meetings on Sunday, the leadership was updated on the status of housing. Sochi Olympics Committee officials and contractors have been scrambling in recent days to finish construction of several thousand rooms, equip these with furniture, appliances, and electronics, and then conduct final operational testing.
According to an AP wire, Sochi Olympics staff reported, "Ninety-seven percent of these rooms are already welcoming guests and the remainder are currently undergoing final testing before being available for visitors before the games starts." These figures are bolstered by seven cruise ships, docked at the city of Sochi, and near the Coastal Cluster, which are housing an estimated 12,000 visitors.
The staff acknowledged that six of the nine housing complexes in this mountain region are not completed.
Confirming this calamity is Oleg Soloshchansky, president of the Inteco corporation that was paid to construct buildings in the mountain hamlet of Gorki Plaza. "The hotels are ready from 90 to 100 percent. We have three days and three nights and we are now cleaning rooms of furniture packaging and also we have some paving to be rearranged," Soloshchansky said in the AP wire.
As the Opening Ceremonies near, thousands are arriving each day. For those that complain about these dire circumstances, they are soon shuttled to alternative, stop-gap housing – either for the duration of the Games, or for the short-term. Many will need to return to their reserved lodging once it is inspected, so that their temporary rental will be freed-up for those guests who originally booked the room.

Well, it looks like temperatures are beginning to moderate! Finally, Old Man Winter is losing his grip on the Ohio Valley. With the beginning of Spring now here, I thought it would be appropriate to look at the Spring 2013 forecast!
Much of the continental United States will see above-average temperatures this spring, according to NOAA. Here in the Ohio Valley and central Ohio, look for above-average temperatures. Precipitation is also forecast to be above-average.
Little relief is expected for the drought stricken areas of Southwest, Texas, the Great Plains, and Florida. A belt of below-average precipitation is through Texas, parts of the southwest, the southern great plains, and Florida. This could spell an increase in fire danger for these areas.
On the other hand, river flooding is expected to be worse this year than last year. The biggest flood threat will be for North Dakota. Keep in mind, however, that above-average precipitation is likely across the Ohio Valley and Great Lakes regions. This will bring an increased risk of flooding for our area, however just minor flooding is expected.
One thing that I cannot stress enough is buying a NOAA weather radio. They will warn you for severe thunderstorms and tornadoes as well as winter weather and other advisories. They can save lives!

Dublin is the biggest city in Ireland and it is also the most well-known part of the nation. Dublin is a hotspot for tourism for its rich history and variety of things to do and see. Those who love zoos and museums will find things to do in Dublin and so will people who are interested in shopping and dining.
Dublin was originally founded as a Viking settlement and it rapidly expanded in the 17th century. In 1800, Dublin entered a bleak period of stagnation, partly because the entire country of Ireland was facing difficult times in the 19th century. In 1922, when Ireland officially gained its freedom from England, Dublin became the capital of the Irish Free State.
Dublin is located in the province of Leinster on the east coast of Ireland. At present it is estimated that about 525,383 people reside in Dublin and millions of tourists come to the city each year. Below is a list of five places to go in Dublin.
Croke Park
Croak Park is a stadium in Dublin that frequently houses Gaelic Football games, soccer matches and hurling competitions. It can hold up to 82,300 people and is the third largest stadium in Europe.
Trinity College
Trinity College is a university in Dublin that was founded in 1592. It was modeled after Oxford and Cambridge. Today, the college is famous for its library that doubles as a museum that welcomes visitors. There are many famous manuscripts in the building, including the Book of Kells.
Saint Stephen's Green
Saint Stephen's Green is a public park in Dublin. The park was landscaped and opened to the public in 1880 and it remains one of the most popular places to go in the city until this very day.
O'Connell Street
O'Connell Street is Dublin's main shopping area. It is named after Daniel O'Connell, an Irish hero and nationalist leader who lived in the early 19th century. O'Connell Street is famous for its busy atmosphere since it attracts a lot of tourists and street performers.
St. James Brewery
The St. James Brewery, also known as the Guinness Brewery, is a beer factory in Dublin. Founded in 1759, the brewery became the largest brewery in the world by 1886. Today it is no longer the biggest brewery but it remains the world's biggest brewer of stout. Guinness beer is famous all over the world and the brewery even offers guided group tours!

The answer, as you might expect, was greater candor and its corollary, greater confidence and openness to learning. Good teams simply communicated better, and, in a learning environment, that meant surfacing and talking about mistakes.
In a discussion about the topic with HBS Working Knowledge, professor Edmondson summarized her findings thusly:
In well-led teams, a climate of openness could make it easier to report and discuss errors—compared to teams with poor relationships or with punitive leaders. The good teams, according to this interpretation, don't make more mistakes, they report more. When I suggested this to physicians involved in the study, they were skeptical. Their response was understandable: With a research grant for the purpose of identifying the error rate, this idea was decidedly unwelcome. My interpretation of the data suggested that we might not be finding the definitive error rate—and further errors might be systematically underreported in certain units but not others. Their skepticism forced me to work hard to develop ways to support my proposition, which ultimately they came to see as reasonable, if not obvious in retrospect.
Once again, we see that learning in adults means supressing instincts for self-protection, defying organizational incentives to conform and be "team players," and ignoring ingrained concepts like division of labor and roles/responsibilities.
This is from a 2006 working paper on the subject, "When Learning and Performance Are At Odds" from Professor Edmondson and her collaborator, Sara Singer:
...Effectively conducting an analysis of a failure requires a spirit of inquiry and openness, patience, and a tolerance for ambiguity. Such an inquiry orientation is characterized by the perception among group members that multiple alternatives exist, frequent dissent, deepening understanding of issues and development of new possibilities, filling gaps in knowledge through combining information sources, and awareness of each others' reasoning and its implications(Argyris et al., 1978). Such an orientation can counteract common group process failures. Learning about the perspectives, ideas, experiences, and concerns of others when facing uncertainty and high stakes decisions, is critical to making appropriate choices.
Looking at this through the prism of innovation, you can see how using the whole disorderly team, how arguing and soliciting dissenting views is essential. Innovation means confronting the unknown, the complex, the ill-defined. Mistakes are to be expected, not avoided. Confronting, embracing failure, then gathering the entire teams's viewpoints on what didn't work and how to fix it, then stepping back and trying a different tack, is essential. Locating dead ends and understanding failure quickly and changing course leads to faster innovation development, lower cost and higher probability of eventual success.

We are using SSD's sata2 disks, but they often get corrupt. I also see that users on their desktop, don't use the on off switch from the computer but use the main power-switch of their office room. This switch turns of everything, it was once thought of to reduce power in our offices that way.
I explained many times to first logoff windows 7 but people forget that frequently and so this results in corrupt SSD's,
I wonder would it be safer to use normal hard disks ?
My main doubt here is I am not sure if they would park their disk heads if power goes off.

"We have really emphasized playing well in conference games and finished strong last week at Bakersfield," said Santa Clara head coach Keith Wilbur, who is preparing his team for Senior Day, SCU's regular season finale Saturday against UC Davis. "The team has worked hard all year to earn a top seed and they have put themselves in a good spot. Now our goal is to do something with it."

The Tritons went 9-1 against WWPA opponents and will play San Diego State on Friday, April 22, in their regular season finale.
