Football recruiting in full swing
There's only one year-round ''sport'' at USC, and that's recruiting.
The end of spring practice last week, and the opening of a recruiting contact period, meant that several USC assistant coaches hit the road this week to visit prospects, and not just those in the class of 2014.
The football coach at Diamond Bar High tweeted this morning that Cordell Broadus, a receiver who doesn't graduate until 2015, received a scholarship offer from USC. If that name doesn't sound immediately familiar, well, he's the son of Calvin Broadus, better known as rapper Snoop Dogg. Cordell Broadus is a highly touted recruit who already had offers from UCLA and several other schools.
Is there a shift in recruiting philosophy for USC? It seems so. Coaches won't/can't talk about it, specifically, but USC seems to be aggressively offering early scholarships to local kids, both in the class of 2014 and 2015. It's already a rather massive list.
That comes on the heels of the 2013 recruiting season, in which USC had some high-profile hits and misses. The Trojans landed some very strong players, including some -- Max Browne, Justin Davis, etc. -- who have already made an impact in spring practice, but they also were left holding unused scholarships when formerly committed players (particularly those from out of state) defected to other schools late in the process.
In the previous recruiting season, USC seemed to have a narrow focus on ''the best of the best.'' Now, the net seems to be widening. USC is offering more early scholarships, even though the Trojans are still limited by NCAA sanctions. That could lead to an uncomfortable situation in the fall, one in which USC has more committed prospects than available scholarships, but that's better than what happened to USC in February.
For the class of 2015, USC will be back to its full allotment of 25 scholarships. That's good news, because the 2015 class is expected to be far stronger than the 2014 class.

At the U.S. Department of Transportation, we aren't reserved about our ambitions for the future of roadway safety.
In 2012, traffic fatality rates fell to historic lows. Our roadways saw just 1.14 deaths per 100 million vehicle miles traveled. In 2013, that number fell even lower to 1.10 deaths per 100 million vehicle miles traveled. Passenger vehicles, large trucks, motorcycles, and pedestrians all saw declines in crash-related fatalities.
In fact, since 2004, road fatalities have dropped 25 percent. And since this Department's founding, the United States has seen the motor vehicle fatality rate drop by 80 percent.
But, while we're proud of this accomplishment, we know it is not enough. Our vision for the future of road transportation is one Toward Zero Deaths, and yesterday I was proud to honor winners of the 2015 Roadway Safety Awards, who share our vision.
Since 1985, the Port of Indiana-Jeffersonville has played an important role in handling millions of tons of steel, grain, fertilizer, salt, and other bulk cargoes for both inbound and outbound markets --domestic and abroad. The port's central location connects the Midwest to the world with the Inland Waterways System, providing year-round access to the Great Lakes as well as ocean vessels in the Gulf of Mexico that can be transloaded with barges coming from or going to Jeffersonville. Trade through the port supports tens of thousands of jobs for Hoosiers and Kentuckians employed by the companies and farms that utilize the port every day, generating nearly $1.5 billion in economic value every year.
While the Port of Indiana-Jeffersonville provides a number of competitive advantages to the Louisville region that includes southeast Indiana and north-central Kentucky, we know continued investments in infrastructure are crucial for ports to meet the predicted growth in freight, alleviate surface transportation congestion, and provide alternatives for shippers. It's good to see that DOT knows that, too.
Last month, Maritime Administrator Paul "Chip" Jaenichen visited the port to announce the award of a $10 million DOT Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery —or "TIGER"— grant...
The world watched recently as two phenomenal runners –one American, the other Japanese– raced side by side in the final miles of the New York City Marathon, trading sixth and seventh places. It was not until the very end that Japan's Yuki Kawauchi slipped ahead of America's Meb Keflezighi by just three seconds. It looked like the runners were competing very intensely against each other, and they were.
But they were also collaborating.
After turning in one of the best performances by a Japanese runner in the New York race's history, Kawauchi in fact told reporters that without such competition, "I probably wouldn't have been able to push it this hard. I owe this race to Meb." Meanwhile, Keflezighi, who is 40 and ran the fastest marathon by a masters runner in American history, credited Kawauchi for helping him break the record.
As I visited Japan last weekend, it struck me that this moment in sports was a microcosm of the U.S.-Japan alliance. For 70 years, our countries have stood together as partners. We have run side by side --in a way competing, but mostly trying to push each other forward. President Obama and Prime Minister Abe have been trying to break through barriers --ranging from trade to climate change-- to further strengthen our bond. I went to Tokyo, in turn, to reaffirm our longstanding commitment to helping each other improve our transportation systems...
Since we announced our first round of awards in 2010, DOT's TIGER program has supported transportation projects that promise to transform cities, rural communities, and regions. For the 2015 TIGER grants --our seventh round—we've also selected a project whose benefits will help an entire state.
The State of Texas is receiving a TIGER 2015 grant for $20.8 million to replace more than 300 old and unreliable buses and vans in rural communities across the Lone Star State –the state with the largest rural population in America. These funds will also help build four new facilities to help maintain those vehicles and make it easier for people to connect to public transportation.
"Our rural residents rely on these transportation services to commute between jobs, school, doctor's appointments, and other destinations that help them maintain their independence while also contributing to the economy," said TxDOT Executive Director LtGen Joe Weber, USMC (Ret). "Without this funding, more than 70 percent of the rural transit fleet used for such services would be outdated by 2017."
The Port of Hueneme is thrilled to be awarded its first-ever U.S. Department of Transportation TIGER grant. The $12.3 million grant award provides critical funding for capital improvements including, deepening berths, strengthening our wharfs, modernizing our cargo infrastructure and building on-dock rail connections. The approximate balance of $12.2 million in project costs comes from port financing, private-sector dollars, and secured grants.
Specifically, this TIGER grant funds a crucial component of the Port of Hueneme's Intermodal Improvement Project, which will allow for larger-capacity vessels, increased cold storage and cargo treatment and handling capability to support increased agricultural imports and exports, as well as implementing on-dock rail improvements that will allow for more efficient transfer of cargo.
Cargo activities at Port of Hueneme create $1.1 billion a year in economic return to the community, generate $69 million in state and local taxes and sustains over 10,200 area jobs. This project promises to strengthen the port's asset utilization, enhance productivity, respond to customer demand, support growing import and export cargo flows, improve air quality and reduce regional congestion by offering efficient modal options...
America's trucking community, the men and women who travel our nation's highways carrying the goods that fuel our economy and support our daily life, know that safe truck parking is a necessity. They also know it's not easy to find. With a little help from TIGER, we're hoping to change that.
Nearly six million commercial motor vehicle drivers are out on our roads each day, a number that is expected to increase dramatically by 2045. That's why --in one of our most innovative TIGER grants ever-- DOT awarded $25 million to the Regional Truck Parking Information and Management System (TPIMS).
The Kansas Department of Transportation is the lead in this, but the important regional project includes seven other states: Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, and Wisconsin. Funding will help selected key freight interstates in the region get parking information to truckers, who can then plan safe rest stops...
Talking TIGER
As we continue to roll-out our 2015 TIGER grants, I want to let you know what I've been doing to celebrate TIGER Day.
This morning, I was in Baltimore, MD, to announce our TIGER award of $10 million to support infrastructure improvements for the Southeast Baltimore Port Industry Freight Corridor Plan. This project will help the Port of Baltimore be a better neighbor to area residents even while it positions the Port for future growth.
In the early afternoon, I held a conference call with reporters nationwide about our TIGER projects, specifically the projects we funded in rural communities. I can't emphasize enough how important it is that DOT has a program like TIGER to help these often-overlooked and often-isolated communities get access to the transportation resources they need.
Finally, I found my way home. Not to Washington, DC, home of our DOT Headquarters, but to Charlotte, NC, my real hometown. There, I announced a $25 million TIGER grant to build the Gateway Station, a multimodal transit hub in Uptown Charlotte...
You call it October 29; here at DOT, we're calling it "TIGER day."
Earlier in the year, I announced the availability of $500 million in funding for the seventh round of our Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery (TIGER) competitive grant program. Within a few months, we reached out to State, County, and local governments; transit agencies; port authorities; metropolitan planning organizations; and other project sponsors with pre-application instructions, benefit-cost analysis guidelines, a best-practices webinar, and other resources to ensure that communities across America with unfunded transportation needs had a fair shot at a TIGER grant.
The applications rolled in --627 eligible applications in all, from 50 states, several U.S. territories, and Tribal governments. Applicants requested a total of $10.1 billion for needed transportation projects, 20 times the program's available funding.
And today, we're announcing the 39 projects selected...
Last week, street artists repainted much of Denver with a Back to the Future theme, commemorating the day that Marty McFly and Doc traveled to in their time machine. But, at the "Transportation Matters" Colorado DOT summit today in Denver, I had to break the news that, no, we do not have hover-cars yet, or flyways.
Soon however, we are likely to have cars that talk to each other and even drive themselves. In fact, we could see automation completely transform how we travel and how we move freight.
The potential innovations we see on the horizon aren't just fun and games. If we're going to continue moving the dial on transportation, and if we want to avoid being overwhelmed by the growth we're going to experience as a country, we will absolutely need these technologies...
The Freight Analysis Framework (FAF) is considered the most comprehensive and widely used freight transportation data source in the United States.
Every 5 years, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) update the FAF based on numbers from BTS' Commodity Flow Survey. And this month, we updated the FAF once again.
The new FAF includes 2012 dollar value and tonnage of freight shipments by mode of transport: truck, rail, water, air and pipeline. Projections through 2045 will be available in the upcoming months...

"Lenin is said to have declared that the best way to destroy the Capitalist System was to debauch the currency. By a continuing process of inflation, governments can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens....Lenin was certainly right. There is no subtler, no surer means of overturning the existing basis of society than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose." ~ John Maynard Keynes
Bloodbath in Yemen: No UN Action for the Peace Laureate's Pal
Submitted by Melinda L. Secor on Sun, 2011-03-20 03:00
"But you will wait in vain to see a UN Security Council intervention directed at this new Gadafy. Instead, we will no doubt soon hear from the Peace Laureate's staunch ally in secret Terror War that the slaughter on Friday was 'unauthorized,' carried out by 'rogue elements,' and that — wait for it — 'an investigation will immediately be launched.' That's how it's done when you're in good standing with the imperial bosses back on the Potomac — and when there is no other potential client strongman waiting in the wings, as in Libya."

Why backup monitoring software is growing in popularity
Brien Posey discusses why backup monitoring software is growing in popularity and how it can help IT admins ensure effective backups.
This Article Covers
Backup software
Are you seeing any increased interest in backup monitoring tools today?
There actually does seem to be a significant amount of interest in backup monitoring products lately. In some ways, the demand for backup monitoring software seems almost counterintuitive. After all, almost every backup application contains some sort of notification engine, so why does an organization need to invest in a dedicated application to monitor backups?
Free Download: Drill down into today's new backup approaches
Due to the features of most modern backup software – which include snapshot management, DR elements, cloud support, VM protection – backups can do so much more than simply restoring data in the event of a storage or server failure. Download this guide and not only discover the latest upgrades to today's top enterprise backup vendors, but also learn where backup software works best in your computing environment.

The reason why backup monitoring software is becoming more popular is because it is able to help an administrator to better cope with the complexities of modern backups.
At one time, a backup application's job was merely to facilitate the copying of data from a backup source to a backup target. Today things are far more complex than they once were. In addition to copying data, backup servers commonly perform other tasks such as data deduplication and changed block tracking.
Not only has the backup software become responsible for performing a wide variety of tasks, the backups themselves have also changed. Organizations might perform any combination of server backups, file-level backups, virtual machine backups or application backups. In addition, backup sources and targets might reside on premises, in the cloud, or both.
The bottom line is that backup administrators have a lot more things to keep track of these days. While it is true that some of the better backup applications offer comprehensive reporting engines, backup admins sometimes find themselves using a variety of different backup applications. This is either as a result of corporate mergers, or because the backup application that the organization has long been using is simply inadequate to deal with all of the different backup operations that need to occur.
Backup monitoring software is designed to collect all of the alerts generated by backup applications and then compile those alerts into a meaningful report. That way, instead of having to look at dozens of different status messages, a backup admin can look at a single backup summary.

The inaugural Chicago Architecture Biennial, titled The State of the Art of Architecture, will take stock of the extraordinary ways in which architects, artists, designers, planners, activists, and policy makers from around the world are tackling the most pressing issues of today. By shining a light on realized architectural projects, projects in formation, spatial experiments made visible, and public gatherings, the Biennial seeks to generate thinking about architecture and its implications for our times. It explores how creativity and imagination can radically transform lived experience as we negotiate urban, suburban, and rural contexts, as well as other places that have not yet been anticipated. Through a constellation of exhibitions, full-scale installations, and programs of events, the Biennial invites the public to engage with and think about architecture in new and unexpected ways, and to take part in a global discussion about the future of the built environment.

Testimonials – Success Stories
Success by Symptoms
Dianne Blacker
"In mid-November 1997 I had a closed head (brain) injury after catching my heel on broken concrete at a Mobil Oil Station in Dallas. I fell flat with full body weight hitting on my left cheekbone. After regaining consciousness, I was helped to the office where I filled out paperwork with an ice pack on my cheek. I had no medical insurance, so an ambulance was not called and I was afraid to go to an Emergency Room and incur medical bills that I could not pay.
I also cracked a tooth and went to an environmental dentist a couple weeks after the fall. As we talked, he told me about Dr. Phyllis Books, a chiropractor who works with cranial injuries and children with ADD. He had gone to her because he had been unable to read without falling asleep. After one treatment, it had never again been a problem for him.
I called her from his office and she said, 'Stop by on your way home and let me take a look at you.' When she examined me, she said, 'You have a great deal of new injury and a lot of old physical injury plus considerable emotional injury throughout your entire body.' Two months after the accident, I gradually began to notice that I was losing some ability to form thoughts or sentences and often used the wrong words. I would sit at the computer to write sections of my latest book but the words wouldn't come or they would come in the wrong order. Then the words began to get jumbled within the sentences.
People would call and I didn't know what to say. I tried to "fake it" in conversation, but soon began avoiding the phone. When I got up in the morning. I couldn't remember what to do. My greatest difficulty has continued to be with names, nouns and numbers. Soon I could no longer conduct my business and answer simple customer questions about health, hormones and nutrition. Within a few months I had lost my business and was living on what I had saved the previous two years.
It wasn't until a few months later that I found Dr. Books' card and I stood in the kitchen and wept, clutching the card and thanking God. I was in bad condition by then. Not only could I not think straight, but also my entire body was in severe pain. After each session of being worked on from head to toe, I felt like I'd been run over by a truck! After three or four treatments, she said I would have some dreams and to please tell her about them. In the dream that was the most vivid and insightful, I was laboring to swim down a river in about two inches of water flowing over a rocky streambed. It was exhausting as I swam and swam until I finally reached a walled in clearing, littered with garbage, trash and dead bodies. I looked around and saw something moving in the far corner. When I made my way over to it, it was "me"!
I said to "me," "you have to get up and get out of here." "Me" stood up and began struggling to carry several bags and suitcases. I said to "Me, "Put that down, you can't take all of that where you are going," So "me" put on a knapsack, picked up a satchel and together we stepped over the wall and walked away. My accumulation of emotional baggage came as the result of a 42 year emotionally and verbally abusive marriage.
I had a total of 17 treatments from May through June of 1998. In July I moved to Phoenix to take care of my mother. Whenever I came back to Dallas to visit, she gave me some follow up treatments just to make sure everything was holding.
She has been a true lifesaver for me. I cannot begin to imagine how I could have recovered full function without the treatment she provided. It has been an enormous blessing to me. I have recovered full mental function and have written four books since then, and taught a number of seminars."
Success with Learning and Behavior
Catherine Curby
"After the treatment I have found I am enjoying to sew and read. I have begun to read a novel and remember what I've been reading. Sewing is no longer frustrating. I don't feel dumb any longer and I think that has improved my self-image and self-confidence."

Heather's Dad
"Heather had never brought home an "A" in her life and on her last report card she brought 3 A's, 1 B, and 1 C. I'm real proud of her and she's real proud of herself. She couldn't wait to tell the world. The treatment has been worth every penny I've spent on it."

Adam Scott has a free shot at clawing towards the world No.1 ranking at the Arnold Palmer Invitational although the withdrawal of Tiger Woods and countryman Jason Day has likely taken away his actual chances of getting there.
In a bizarre fall-out from current No 1 Woods' back injury and No 4 Day's thumb complaint, the strength of field for the event at Bay Hill has taken just enough of a mathematical hit to affect the chase for Scott.
The complex world ranking system assigns points to an event based on the current world rankings of those playing and while official projections aren't computed until all players begin the event it appears a win for Scott would still leave him fractionally short of Woods.
Had Day been able to play, a win for Scott in Woods' absence would have most likely been enough to take the top spot.
Regardless, a win would at the very least get him close enough to pass Woods at the Masters with a higher finish than the American, even if he didn't defend.
Scott had the chance to get to the summit in his last start at Doral but wasn't able to muster the necessary victory, instead finishing tied 25th.
"There was some fun in going to Doral and having a chance to win and maybe go to No 1 and that's a huge motivator. It didn't really work out and I don't know how many of those chances I'll get," Scott said as he prepares for his final event before he'll defend his Masters title next month.
"So if I get another chance I'm going to be doing my best to take it because the well might dry up, and I might never have this opportunity again."
Scott returns to Bay Hill for the seventh time, but first time since missing the cut in 2009.
His best result was a tie for third in 2004, something he is looking to better as he gets his last competitive hit out before the Masters.
"I think it's a course that suits me and I'm expecting to put myself in the mix and try to get myself into some pretty good form heading into the next month," Scott said.
"Hopefully I'm going to make a few birdies. I'm coming here to make a few birdies and kind of get the confidence up a little bit, see a few go in the hole.
"I'd like to see my game work into a bit of shape and then I think it will be exciting for me going to Augusta feeling like I'm playing pretty good."
Stuart Appleby, Greg Chalmers, Aaron Baddeley, Matt Jones, Marc Leishman, former event champion Rod Pampling, and last week's Valspar Championship winner John Senden join Scott at Bay Hill.
