I am a proud member of the Bledsoe County High School Class of 1987. I earned a B.S. Degree in Secondary Education and a Masters in Guidance and Counseling for the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. I also earned an EDS in Supervision and Administration from Tennessee Tech. For the past nineteen years I have worked at the Bledsoe County Vocational Center. I worked as a teacher, counselor, principal and CTE Director. I enjoyed my time there very much and made many lifelong friends.
I am very blessed to once again have wonderful people to work with. In my spare time I love to spend time with family and friends, read and travel.
I would like to end with a quote that I hope will inspire all of us:

Compensation of Nonlinearities of Horn Loudspeakers
This paper presents an compensation method of nonlinearities of horn loudspeakers. It is possible to compensate the nonlinearities effects of electroacoustic devices by applying the inverse nonlinearity upstream. The method is based on the measurements of the nonlinearity by Volterra series using multitone excitations. Once the Volterra kernels has been determined, we proceed by computing the inverse Volterra kernels, both in magnitude and phase. The method was implemented and validated in non-real time and real time (DSP implementation). To validate the nonlinearities compensation a comparison between total harmonic distortion measurements with and without compensation has been done.

Ranks are hard! I almost changed the title to "Way Too Much Of A Headache Ranks" since 2016-17 is gonna be ridiculous on draft day! So many guys with upside, so many injury question marks, free agency is gonna explode, we still have rookies to mix in here… And I don't feel like I have as many "on a limb" calls as the past few seasons. Everything seems to be nebulous, murky, jiggly-like-Raymond-Felton-running, "I guess this guy seems about right" kind of ranks filling out the top 50. If anyone thinks they're more excited than I am for free agency and the NBA Draft, they would be sorely mistaken! I need some clarity out here, dammit! Hopefully with some signings and scouting the rookies, I can find some more bold calls when we get to the "real" ranks in August. Or maybe I'm gun shy after the Wiggins fiasco. That will go down as one of the biggest international scandals in history… Dammit, eh! Here's my Way Too Early Top 50 (1-10 can be read here, 11-25 here) for the 2016-17 Fantasy Basketball Season (with 1-50 in a complete list below):Please, blog, may I have some more?
Rudy Gay
A matchup with the Philadelphia 76ers is Candyland for talented opposition and on Tuesday night it was Thaddeus Young's turn to feast. The injury-depleted Sixers couldn't keep Thad off the glass as he collected a season-high 16 rebounds (four offensive). In addition to the board-fest, Young scored 14 points on 5-9 from the field and a perfect 4-4 mark from the foul line. He handed out a team-high four assists (with no turnovers), swiped the ball twice and rejected three Philly shots for an eight-category gem. The only disappointment for Thad's owners on this night is that he fouled out, holding him to 33 minutes, or the line could have been even sweeter.
Thad has been a fourth round value on the season so big lines have popped up here and there, but monster outings like Tuesday's illustrate just how favorable a matchup with Philadelphia can be. All told, the Nets hung 131 points on 'em (in regulation) and with the 76ers having now given up more than 110 points in twelve of their last fifteen games, it's worth a look ahead to see who else might have an opportunity to post a season-best line at the expense of Philadelphia pride in the near future…
- Thursday, March 17th vs Wizards – Look for Otto Porter to go big, especially if Bradley Beal can't go.
- Friday, March 18th vs Thunder – If you've ever wondered if Russell Westbrook can post a triple-double in less than 20 minutes, this might be the night we find out.
- Sunday, March 20th vs Boston – Avery Bradley is due for a scoring outburst as he hasn't had a 20+ point performance since February 22nd. Maybe he busts loose against the "defense" of Isaiah Canaan and Nik Stauskas.
Beyond that the '6ers head out on a four-game road trip with the last of those contests taking place at Oracle Arena against the Golden State Warriors…yikes.
Let's take a game-by-game look at the studs, duds and noteworthy performers from a six-game Tuesday night.Please, blog, may I have some more?
The season-long fantasy wasteland that is the Utah Jazz starting point guard spot saw a change to its depth chart on Tuesday night. New addition Shelvin Mack was tossed in with the first group after looking really good in his first game with the Jazz on Sunday. His promotion meant that Raul Neto was bench bound, a move that quite frankly would have been made several weeks ago had Utah actually featured a healthy, professional quality point guard on their roster prior to the trade deadline. One quick look at Neto's game log from this season and you'll see that he's achieved fairly modest benchmarks quite infrequently:
- Double-digit scoring – nine times
- Five or more assists – seven times
- Five or more rebounds – zero times (!)
- Three or more combined 3s/steals/blocks – 16 times
- Double-digit FGAs+FTAs – eight times
Those numbers come after having played in 55 games and averaging over 20 MPG, so they're even more pathetic than they look at first blush. The usage wasn't there for Raulzinho (yep, that is his full given name) and neither was anything resembling roster-worthy fantasy production.
Enter Shelvin Mack, he of former Atlanta Hawks fame. Well, the "fame" part was mostly lacking as he was never truly unleashed by Coach Bud and the Hawks organization. After a largely forgettable three-year stint as a backup combo guard, Mack held seasonal high water marks of just 7.5 PPG, 3.7 APG, 2.2 RPG, and 0.8 SPG (all during the 2013-2014 campaign where he saw 20.5 MPG across 73 games). However, in his two games sporting a Jazz uniform and having had very little time to learn the offensive system and intricacies of his teammates' games, Mack has already posted lines of 16/3/6/0/1 (in his debut off the bench) and 17/1/2/1/0 in his first starting gig last night.
It's easy to see that Mack is worth a pickup as the complementary stats are sure to follow once he's fully integrated into the Utah system. He may never be a top-50 player with several other capable ball-handlers on the roster (Gordon Hayward and Rodney Hood currently, and Alec Burks within the next couple weeks once he returns from injury), but it's clear that Mack no longer belongs on any fantasy waiver wires as he looks to have a stranglehold on the starting PG job. If you haven't already, go pick him up.
Here's what else happened on a five-game Tuesday in the NBA…Please, blog, may I have some more?
With any All-Star list, it's impossible to include everyone who is having a great year. There are only 12 roster spots and there will always be well-deserving candidates that just don't fit on the roster. It's what makes the All-Star selection so noteworthy.
With the All-Star Game this weekend, here is my list of valuable fantasy all-stars who just don't receive as much love:
Eastern Conference:
Kemba Walker – The Hornets are right in the hunt for the 8th playoff seed in the east and that's due to the play of Walker. Al Jefferson and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (more on him later) have missed most of the season, while Nicolas Batum (11/6/5) has been in and out of the lineup. Walker produces night in and night out with whoever is playing alongside him. Walker scored 25 points with 7 rebounds, 3 assists, and 2 steals to lead the Hornets to another victory.
Nikola Vucevic – Vucci Mane has been the cornerstone of the Magic and has single-handedly won the game for them with a few recent game-winners. He did much of the same on Wednesday with 20 points, 13 rebounds, 5 assists, and 2 blocks. He's only 25 so there's still time for him to make the roster one of these years.Please, blog, may I have some more?
Full disclosure – the entirety of this post was written before Sunday afternoon. I know that either A – I would be too drunk to try to finish this if the Panthers win the Super Bowl, and my writing would be as incoherent as the screenplay of Southland Tales. Although to be fair, I actually kinda liked that movie! It was a mess; but a weird mess! A little JT before he went full movie star! And Amy Poehler before she, ummmm, fired her agent. And Cheri Oteri! Before she, ummmmm, was never heard from again. Or B – I would be too depressed to write anything about basketball.
As we chug along into the All-Star Break, one train is certainly doing the Ozzy Crazy Train right now! Gorgui Dieng just tore apart the Bulls, going 24/14/7/0/1 in 41 minutes, hitting 10-13 FG and 4-4 FT. And you've been benching this guy for Kevin fuc$*$*$&#*#*$$ing Garnett!? Even Ricky Rubio is like, "wait, he got more assists than even MI last game!? Ay dios mio!" The Dieng Train is on an absolute tear the past 7 games, and Coach Sam Mitchell said "he might be willing to find out" if Dieng can play 40 minutes a night. Hey Mitchell, I might be willing to bitchslap you if you play KG at the starting 4 again! I might go so far as saying Dieng is a top-50 option ROS, which is as disheartening as it gets as I own him nowhere. I was late for the Train! The conductor was like "All Aboard!" and I was like, "F that, Mitchell isn't playing him enough!" Kudos to you if you hopped aboard anyway right before this run. Here's what else went down over the weekend, plus the 14 [kinda] Ahead for Week 16:Please, blog, may I have some more?
It's the takeover, the break's over. Apparently firing David Blatt may have been the right decision after all, inspiring the recent play of LeBron James and company.
With the Cavs winning their last five games, I have no reasonable doubt that the Big 3 will fail to continue this trend after the All-Star Break. Despite heavy minutes and an up-tempo pace, James has unfinished business on his quest to win his third ring, and this style of play is the blueprint from the successes of his Miami Heat teams.
Maybe this is all a convoluted way of saying the Ruler's back, but King James and the Cavs look rejuvenated under new coach Tyronn Lue, attacking the opposing defense and getting to the foul line. Playing 43 minutes in an overtime contest, James finished with 24 points, 12 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals, and 1 block while shooting 9-22 from the field. Although shooting 4-8 from the foul line is more Drummond-like than MVP level, just remember everyone makes mistakes, everyone has those days.Please, blog, may I have some more?
Alright, so actual Fat Tuesday doesn't shake down in New Orleans for another couple weeks, but with a robust eight games on the NBA docket, it was a fitting – and catchy – title, so I decided to stick with it. ("Robust Tuesday" just doesn't roll off the tongue the same way, ya know?) We typically only get a handful of games on a given Tuesday, but the schedule makers decided to give League Pass subscribers a real workout this week. Games started at 7pm and didn't wrap up until well after midnight on the East Coast. In the middle of it all was an overtime thriller at the Mecca.
The Knickerbockers of New York, absent Carmelo Anthony, were able to withstand a pair of fat (Tuesday) lines from Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook for much of the night. Despite a combined 74 points from the Thunder's dynamic duo (KD poured in 44, Russ 30), the Madison Square Garden audience was treated to some bonus basketball, though the Knicks ultimately came up just short in the 53rd minute. New York shared the scoring burden as they had five different players contribute between 15 and 21 points: Kristaps Porzingis (15), Lance Thomas (16), Aaron Afflalo (17), Derrick Williams (19), Langston Galloway (21).
Durant supplemented his scoring barrage with 14 boards, five dimes, a steal, and four 3-pointers. A healthy Durantula is the second most valuable asset in fantasy basketball. It's just that simple. I don't care what format you're playing or how many categories you're counting, if I'm not getting Steph Curry in return, I'm not parting with KD right now.
Kevin's running mate, Russell Westbrook, had himself quite the ballgame as well: 13-of-24 from the field, eight rebounds, 10 helpers and three steals complemented his 30-point outing quite nicely. Picky owners can find fault in his five turnovers or failure to connect from long range, but overall Westbrook is an absolute stat stuffer and you probably only need one hand to count the number of players more valuable than him moving forward.
Meanwhile, outside of the Big Apple…Please, blog, may I have some more?
I'm all for switching it up and trying something new to win. And while I think Hack-a-Shaq can work in the right situations, the Rockets took Hack-a-Whoever way too far. The Rockets fouled Andre Drummond repeatedly, giving him 36 free throws! At one point, K.J. McDaniels intentionally fouled Drummond 5 times in 9 seconds! (McDaniels finished the game with a very Jan Vesely-ish line of 1 minute, 5 fouls).
Drummond made only 13 of his 36 free throws, but it didn't matter, as the Pistons still defeated the Rockets by 9. The 23 missed free throws was an NBA record for the most missed free throws in a game.
So you're telling me the intentional fouling was effective in limiting the Pistons' possessions, but somehow the Rockets still lost? How? The Rockets are definitely one of the biggest disappointments of the season and really need to turn it around if they're going to make a splash in the playoffs.
While Drummond owners will be screwed in FT%, he still managed to post 17/11 with 1 steal and 1 block. Now onto the other highlights from Wednesday night's games:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Mmmmmm soup… I mean noodle soup! I mean soup! COME ON!
After a long existence in the kitchen cabinet, Myles Turner finally got a chance to be mmmm, mmmm good going 25/7/2/1/2 on 11-13 shooting. He even had a third block called a goaltend with a verrrrry late whistle late in the game. Just like a fine batch of cream of broccoli, it just needed some time to age! I was a well-documented Turner-crazed ranker, but I think most would agree he's been awesome when he's on the court. Some nagging knee soreness limited his minutes early before breaking his thumb, but we finally got to see the potential I was so crazy for last night. Now, Ian Mmmmmmahinmmmmmmi was out with a sore heel which doesn't sound too serious, so the minutes certainly aren't assured. Turner's 29 minutes were off the bench, with Vogel starting the inferior SC Apple Jordan Hill at the 5. Even with the depth the Pacers have at C, I gotta think this game has awarded Turner more consistent run. And if you aren't sold yet, his per-36s are 17.1/8.9 with 2.2 BLK shooting 55% from the field (even though he's a jump shooter). I was fortunate enough to add him in all 4 of my RCLs, so he's likely out there in a lot of 12ers – I'd scoop him up as I think he's the creamed corn of the crop of waiver bigs! Here's what else went down over the weekend in fantasy hoops action, and The 7 Ahead for week 13:Please, blog, may I have some more?
…The Sixers don't have a Clue, that's for sure!
On a night of comebacks where we saw the Spurs come back from their largest deficit at home to beat the Cavs, we also saw the Bulls down more than 20 in the 2nd quarter and 16 at half come back and just obliterate the Sixers in the 2nd half and overtime by unleashing the Godzilla.
"God" the key word in that one! Jimmy Butler just went insane going 15-30 FG (2-4 3PTM 21-25 FT) for 53 Pts. "Ohhhhhh, look at me, I'm Slim, I get another point on the 30-pt Challenge Board! Do you get double if they score 60, because it was close!" And of course I poked the Slim, texting him earlier yesterday afternoon that Butler might not play, being listed as a game-time call due to a kankle. Yeahhhhh, so much for that. At least I won't suffer this kind of loss again, as Butler made himself a top-10 scorer last night, upping it to 23.1 PPG. Butler still kept it multi-cat with 10 boards, 6 dimes and 3 steals to top if off. I haven't been so turned on by a Butler since Michael Caine! He's also continuing a trend that the second round wings are paying off – Buckets, Kawhi Leonard, Paul George, Draymond Green… It's really making some nice parity among the game's elites so there's enough to not mind a later draft pick in 16-17, as you'll be able to nab two solid players at the first turn. It's going to make next year really interesting… Here's what else went down last night in fantasy hoops action:Please, blog, may I have some more?

Endometrial Ablation
What is Endometrial Ablation?
Endometrial Ablation Precautions and Preparation
Endometrial ablation is not an appropriate treatment for bleeding in every woman. It cannot be performed when a woman is pregnant or when a woman desires to become pregnant at any time in the future. Endometrial ablation should not be performed when there is infection in the genital tract. Prior to the procedure, the woman must undergo a thorough physical examination including a sampling (biopsy) of the endometrium to confirm that cancer is not present.
Imaging studies and/or visual examination of the uterine cavity using a hysteroscope (a lighted viewing instrument that is inserted to visualize the inside of the uterus) are typically also carried out to exclude the presence of abnormalities, such as uterine polyps or benign (fibroid) tumors beneath the endometrium, that could be responsible for the heavy bleeding. These can often be simply removed without the need for destruction of the entire endometrium.
Because a thinner endometrium is easier to destroy, some women may need to take hormonal medications during the weeks prior to the procedure for optimal results. These medications serve to thin the endometrial lining and increase the likelihood of a successful ablation procedure.
If a woman has an intrauterine contraceptive device (IUD) in place, it must be removed prior to the procedure being performed.

I own the previous version of the V3 produced in 2009. My size medium measures 28" from jaw-crest-jaw and weighs 1350g. Although there is no MIPS, it is a great helmet with an excellent liner and great fit. I recently purchased a new MIPS V3 on closeout and needless to say I'm a tad disappointed. The new V3 in a medium is both LARGER and HEAVIER than the older version. Some have stated otherwise, but it's clearly listed on the inside of the helmet. Come on Fox....a newer model....that's 1" larger and over a 1/2 lb. heavier than the older version....and more expensive?! The MIPS is cool, but it squeaks like crazy. The helmet also fits much tighter due to the changed liner and the strap liners are no longer sewed on. This makes the strap liner rest inside my ear making for an annoying and unsolvable issue. Noticeably and measurably larger and heavier, plus a few other annoying attributes in quality of construction (that aren't even matched to the older version) mean you can find better if you plan on paying full price.

The Ration Book Olympics (CD-Audio)Clare Balding

Clare Balding looks back at the last time that the Olympic Games came to London in 1948. Three years after the end of the Second World War, Britain was still gripped by austerity. Rationing was still in force, severe bomb damage was still much in evidence and no new sports facilities could be built. Visiting athletes were put up in schools and RAF camps. Yet the Games were a resounding success and actually made a profit.

The use of the statistical technique of discriminant analysis as a tool for the detection of fault-prone programs is explored. A principal-components procedure was employed to reduce simple multicollinear complexity metrics to uncorrelated measures on orthogonal complexity domains. These uncorrelated measures were then used to classify programs into alternate groups, depending on the metric values of the program. The criterion variable for group determination was a quality measure of faults or changes made to the programs. The discriminant analysis was conducted on two distinct data sets from large commercial systems. The basic discriminant model was constructed from deliberately biased data to magnify differences in metric values between the discriminant groups. The technique was successful in classifying programs with a relatively low error rate. While the use of linear regression models has produced models of limited value, this procedure shows great promise for use in the detection of program modules with potential for faults

MY TURN: Rezoning should fit in with existing neighborhood
Published: Monday, July 8, 2013 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, July 7, 2013 at 10:12 p.m.
Recently, the Letters to the Editor section of The Tuscaloosa News has served up a lively discussion on property rights. The specific catalyst for these letters is a rezoning petition that would rezone 101 and 103 Hargrove Road from its current zoning of R-2 (residential,
single-family) and RMH (mobile home residential) to R-4S (to allow high density, four- and five-bedroom, gated, student-only apartments).
Like the owners of the Hargrove Road parcel, I too believe in property rights and competitive markets. In the interest of transparency, however, let me state that I spoke against this particular rezoning at the May 20 meeting of the Planning and Zoning Commission.
Most cities in the U.S. use zoning codes to control growth, regulate development and optimize publicly supported infrastructure, such as roads and sewers. Zoning codes, however, are also a form of insurance issued to all property owners by municipalities to guarantee no inappropriate land use will be allowed to degrade the usability or value of code-protected property.
If individuals buy houses in a code-protected residential area, they are assured they will not find themselves living next door to a manufacturing facility, gas station or apartment complex. Likewise, business owners operating in an area zoned for commercial use will not find themselves with a residence next door, asking it to avoid commercial traffic or noise during the early morning hours.
Not every development needs city permission to initiate operations. If a developer wants to build a shopping center or apartment complex in an area that is zoned for that type of business, then — generally speaking — only a building permit is required. Neighbors have no say when a property is put to use in the manner allowed by current zoning — even if they don't want or like it in their neighborhood.
The Lofts at City Center on McFarland and the townhouses at 15th Street and Forest Lake Drive are examples of developments that conform to the existing zoning but may rankle surrounding neighbors.
However, when a property owner or potential developer asks that a code-protected property be rezoned to permit a usage not allowed under current zoning, the neighboring property owners necessarily become involved. Why? Because every property owner has property rights — and no single property owner's rights can infringe on or supersede their neighbors' property rights.
So what happens when a property owner requests a rezoning and the neighbors object? The municipality is called upon to ascertain whether the rezoning or variance requests are in the best interests of all affected parties. Why? Because while rezoning a property can increase its sales price, it can also create real financial losses and/or reduce the quality of life for property owners in the surrounding area.
All of the neighborhoods around the Hargrove Road property — A.P. Lee, Arlington, The Downs, Forest Lake, Glendale Gardens, Hillcrest, etc. — voiced opposition to the rezoning. The primary reason is that this particular property is completely surrounded by single-family homes nested within family-oriented neighborhoods. The neighborhoods and streets were developed from the 1920s through the 1960s. A large, student-only apartment complex is very different from every other residence in these neighborhoods.
Several supporters of the rezoning point out that the area neighborhoods are already home to some UA students, which is true. However, students live in small houses and blend into the fabric of the area. They chose to live in these old neighborhoods because they don't want to live in or around student-only developments, preferring instead to enjoy the yards, porches, grills, garages and other comforts of home found in the neighborhoods.
The proposed development is sometimes described as "small, cottage-style houses." But the zoning requested is designed specifically to allow large, dense, multifamily complexes. The proposed development includes buildings that have multiple four- and five-bedroom units. A 10- or 15-
bedroom "cottage" is not a cute neighborhood street scene; it's an off-campus dorm.
Putting a high-density, students-only complex in the middle of decades-old neighborhoods would change the character of those neighborhoods and discourage families, empty-nesters and young professionals from buying or renting houses therein. This reduction of the number and variety of buyers/renters would in turn lower the property values and negatively impact the quality of life of all the surrounding code-protected property owners. Economists call this effect an "externality" — a cost created by a business that is borne by those outside the business.
Am I against rezoning the property on Hargrove Road? No. Am I against student housing? No. In fact, I get along well with my student neighbors and welcome them. I think the property owners should be allowed to rezone their property to enhance its value and increase the likelihood of its sale and development. However, any new zoning should be compatible with surrounding neighborhoods to assure that everyone's property rights are protected. At best, development should add value to its surrounding community, but, at worst, it should do no harm.

World Series of Poker's Last Nine Are Set for November Showdown
The World Series of Poker's main event narrowed its field to the final nine players, who will compete in November for the $8.7 million top prize.
The "November Nine" is made up of players from seven countries -- three from the U.S. and one each from Ireland, Belize, Ukraine, Germany, England and the Czech Republic.
The leader is Martin Staszko, a 35-year-old Czech poker professional who has almost 40.2 million in chips, according to the tournament's website. Second in chips, with more than 33.9 million, is Ireland's Eoghan O'Dea, 26. O'Dea's father, Donnacha, won a World Series tournament title in 1998.
Also returning to Las Vegas on Nov. 5 to play in the final table are Americans Matt Giannetti (24.8 million in chips), Phil Collins (23.9 million) and Ben Lamb (20.9 million); Badih Bounahra of Belize (19.7 million); Pius Heinz of Germany (16.4 million); Anton Makiievskyi of Ukraine (13.8 million); and Sam Holden of England (12.4 million).
Lamb, from Tulsa, Oklahoma, has a win and second-place finish at the 58-event World Series this year.
The final two players will go head-to-head on Nov. 7, with the winner earning $8.7 million and the champion's bracelet, and the runner-up taking $5.4 million. Each of the final nine is guaranteed to make at least $782,115.
The main event, officially known as the No-Limit Texas Hold'em World Championship, began with 6,865 entrants, making it the third largest live event in poker history.

The U.S. solar industry employs 174,000 Americans nationwide, but this number is so much more than a piece of data. This number represents the people who are directly behind an energy revolution, whose stories encapsulate the very essence of solar's character. 174,000 are transforming America.
Solar energy is on the upsurge, representing 40 percent of all new electric generating capacity brought on-line in the first half of 2015, according to a new report today from GTM Research and the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA).
Wednesday, Aug. 26: A good day. A good day for net metering policies. A good day for the solar industry. A good day for consumers who are interested in having options and choices for their individual energy portfolios.
On Wednesday, Aug. 26, there were two important victories that took place in Nevada and Colorado. Independent net metering results that leave both of those states, both economically and environmentally, better off – at least for now.
The state of Utah is on the precipice of a solar revolution, but its trajectory could be disrupted by the looming expiration of the federal investment tax credit (ITC) for solar energy.
Only exceeded by China, the United States is the world's largest producer of greenhouse gases, with the largest source of emissions coming from electricity generation. America is changing its course and the U.S. solar energy industry is leading the way on this new road; a path to a clean energy future.
Chalk one up for clean energy! In a precedent-setting decision, the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld the constitutionality of Colorado's renewable portfolio standard (RPS), ruling that the state's RPS does not impose unlawful regulations on out-of-state companies. This was a huge win for the solar and wind industries.
Think about this for a second: If California was a nation, it would rank 6th in the world in installed solar capacity. Wow. That's pretty amazing – and one of the key takeaways from the latest U.S. Solar Market Insight Report, which was just released by GTM Research and the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA).
With a majority of Americans considering solar power to be their No. 1 energy choice, it's no wonder more households than ever before are going solar.
Today, GTM Research and the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) released the latest edition of the U.S. Solar Market Insight Report, which revealed the first three months of 2015 as the best quarter for residential solar system installations — ever.

I want to test multiple Operating Systems on one PC. Which one of these is better for virtualization of multiple OSs?

I want to test multiple Operating Systems on one PC. Which one of these is better for virtualization of multiple OSs?
migrated from stackoverflow.com Jul 28 '10 at 1:44
This question came from our site for professional and enthusiast programmers.
My understanding is that the Windows 7 built-in virtualisation is primarily for allowing older, incompatible Windows applications to run under later versions seamlessly.
If you want virtualisation of multiple OS' (where multiple doesn't just mean Microsoft SomethingOrOther), I'd be looking at a product more targeted as that.
I actually prefer VMWare Player but any of them should be good enough:
That's also my order of preference if you're interested. You're probably not, and it's a matter of taste anyway so feel free to ignore.
Since this is in OS X, I'm assuming you want something that runs ON OS X. I'd recommend Virtualbox. It's free and works well.
If you want to try out OS X in a virtual machine on your Windows 7 PC: stop thinking about it. There ARE ways to accomplish this, but none of them are legal.
If you are still interested you should stick to Virtual Box and google around a bit =)

Spunky, the hapless director, keeps lining up girls to bang, but his friends Marcus and St. Jox keep stealing them away. Yes, it's just another witless excuse for a few motel-room quickies, but at least the vid delivers fresh, enthusiastic talent.
The best scene jams with Marcus and covergirl Mocha, with a firm little bod and a tight pussy that brews up a steaming load of natural lube. The foamy white ambrosia spills all around his balls while he slams her missionary style. A trio of girls (including wild Monique, here billed as "Sugar") also put in a hot effort to get each other off in a decent lesbo session. A good start on the first in a series.

You are so pathetic!Because your chess knowledge is no match for his,u r making comments on his appearance!You are really lame.
No, he isn't lame. Just an ignorant goofy, rated some 400 points below my cat.
No. The best Anti-Marshall is most probably the Yates (8.d4 d6 9.c3 Bg4 10.Be3) where chances are equal, but the play is lively.
8.a4 is a scaled-down 6.d3 Spanish (white has commited himself to Rf1-e1 a tad too early), while 8.d3 is even more harmless.
The bearded wonder makes yet another appearance:
The brainless wonder makes another appearance.
Scotch four knights for new players, plain Scotch for later.
Although (IMO) the only real challenge to 1...e5! is the Ruy Lopez.
Studying the Ruy will not elevate your rating, at least short-term. However, it will definitely make you a better player- the positions to study are a real chess school- incredibly rich strategically, yet full of unexpected tactics.
The King's gambit is an opening from the past- Black has about one dozen ways towards a comfortable game.
Thank you for the advice. I have started studying the Ruy Lopez
Alright with the Tortoise joke no one is laughing!
Has chesslover1995 been banned, by any chance?
I am interested in the 4 knights scotch, I want to use against the petroff. I wonder how do I play against counterattacks in the centre, like 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nf6 3.Nc3 Nc6 4.d4 d5?
BTW - Ruy Lopez is worth studying, I mess up the move order and got severely punished for it in many of my games!

Vermont officials get revenue updateJuly 23,2013The Associated Press
MONTPELIER — Two consulting economists say Vermont's revenue forecast is improving, with the general fund and transportation fund expected to be up in fiscal year 2014.
The economists recommended to lawmakers and the governor on Tuesday an increase of 3 percent in the general fund to $4 million for the fiscal year and a 7.4 percent upgrade to the transportation fund to $17.2 million from their January forecast.
But the economists recommended downgrading the education fund by 3 percent or $500,000.
Economist Thomas Kavet says the state ended the fiscal year 1.5 percent above expectations. But he said the economic recovery has been slow.
He says the state would normally be having accelerated rates of growth at this stage but says it's not because of "headwinds that exist from federal fiscal policy."MORE IN This Just In

I cut the recipe in half, used about 3 Tbls. of lemon juice instead of 4 Tbls. and added about 1 Tbls. of water and oil to make it a little more to our desired consistency. Sooo creamy and tasty. Thank you. Served with home made toasted pita chips.

Love It, But Please Fix It!
This app makes it so easy for me to upload pins from the web and to move multiple pins at a time from one board to another (a new Pinterest feature). I can't find another app that allows me to do those things on my iPad, so this is perfect! I wouldn't be able to fully utilize Pinterest without it!!
I really hate using it, though!!! I have to contemplate how much time I have and my patience level before logging on, simply because the app is so unstable. It's usually very slow and unpredictable. It also freezes up and suddenly stops, leaving me staring at a blank screen. I don't know which is most frustrating!!
If things ran more smoothly, without all these issues, it would totally be my "go to" app for pinning! I've never used it without glitches, though. Never. Not once in over 2 years. I keep hoping the problems will miraculously clear up, which is why I continue to try to use it. If I'm not moving multiple pins around on my boards or uploading pictures or pinning through Safari, I save myself the headaches and go straight to the Pinterest app.
Love it!
The other day I downloaded every App associated with Pinterest for the iPad, yes even the ones you pay for! I was frustrated with not being able to upload or pin from my browser! You wouldn't believe it, this is the only one that works! I can upload from my photo album or pin from my browser, just what I was looking for! Keep up the good work!!!
Has potential
I like the layout and design for browsing. But this app is useless for pinning. Very hard to choose your board if you have to scroll past the first few that are displayed. I finally gave up.

Repairing a Worn Out Seat
courtesy of Bob, The Auto Answer Man
Hi Bob,
I have an Explorer and the driver's bucket seat is broke. The bar it hangs on to stay upright is worn away and I am in nearly a laying position while driving unless I use some type of back support. This is quite embarrassing when you have guests in your car. Also, I have to have the two kids' car seats crunched together on the right and middle cause their legs would get crunched. Is it worth repairing? Is it something we could replace? We just do not have the funds to buy another vehicle right now. But, if you say that it is unfixable, then we'll have to figure something out.
I would recommend getting a replacement seat from a junk yard or salvage center. You may have to shop around a bit to find one that has the same color as yours.
Good Luck!
Drive Safely!
Bob, The Auto Answer Man
editor's note: we received the following note that could save you some money!
Hi Bob, I just finished reading the stretcher newsletter in which you had recommended that a subscriber get a seat for their Explorer from a junkyard. I wanted to let you know that there was a recall on those. Ford will fix it for free. One that they would get from a junkyard would probably have the same problem. We also have an Explorer and I found the information on Edmunds.com. Thanks, Stacy K.

Suspect in prison officer's slaying was bitten and bloody, warrant says
Evidence suggests prison officer fought inmate accused of killing her
MONROE — Corrections officer Jayme Biendl apparently bit, scratched and clawed at the convicted rapist who is suspected of killing her Saturday inside the chapel at the Monroe Correctional Complex, a search warrant says. Inmate Byron Scherf had blood droplets on his clothing, "bite marks on the tips of his fingers" and what appeared to be scratch marks on one of his buttocks, according to documents filed in court Tuesday. He also had "visible blood on his hands and marks across the palms of both hands" consistent with somebody using a ligature to strangle a victim, the search warrant said. Biendl, 34, was found Saturday on the stage of the small chapel. An amplifier cord was wrapped around her neck, Monroe police spokeswoman Debbie Willis said. Some time after the killing was discovered, a tearful Scherf came to his segregation cell door and offered an apology, court papers said. "I'm sorry," Scherf reportedly told two corrections officers who were watching him. "I just wanted to say I'm sorry for what happened." Then Scherf requested that a nurse give him a tetanus shot because he'd been bitten on the middle finger of his left hand, the search warrant said. Detectives sought a judge's permission to search Scherf's body, to collect hair and genetic samples, and to take photos of him without his clothing. They are investigating Biendl's death as a possible first-degree murder. On Tuesday, Scherf was transferred from the Monroe prison to the Snohomish County Jail. Prison superintendent Scott Frakes arranged for the transfer while Monroe police complete their homicide investigation. Police usually interview crime suspects in a jail environment, rather than a prison, corrections department spokesman Chad Lewis said. They decided that would be best for the investigation. The Snohomish County Jail is operated by the Snohomish County Sheriff's Office. The search warrant offers more details about what happened Saturday night. It describes how Scherf, an inmate volunteer, is believed to have been the only person near Biendl while she worked alone at the chapel. The chapel was set to close at 8:30 p.m., and the last logbook entry, presumably made by Biendl, was "recall," meaning inmates had been ordered back to their cells. Biendl's post in the chapel was self-relieving, meaning when her shift ended at 9 p.m. there was nobody coming to relieve her. Scherf was missing during a routine count at 9:14 p.m. He was found at 9:20 p.m., seated in a chair in the lobby outside the chapel. The chapel door was propped open and the light was on inside, according to the search warrant affidavit prepared by Monroe police detective Spencer Robinson. Scherf allegedly told the officers that he had hidden under a desk and planned to "jump the wall" because he was tired of serving a life sentence without release for rape, kidnapping and assault convictions. "I've had it. I plan to escape," Scherf is quoted as having said. One of the corrections officers told detectives there was blood on Scherf's jacket and T-shirt. Scherf told them it was from being "jumped" by other inmates earlier that day. He was photographed and taken to a segregation unit, and his clothing was bagged as possible evidence. "Since inmate Scherf was located the incident was deemed to be over," the search warrant said. "The chapel was secured with the doors closed and locked. Staff continued their assigned shift duties." It wasn't until just after 10 p.m. that corrections workers realized that Biendl's radio and handcuffs hadn't been turned in, something officers are required to do at the end of their shifts. Co-workers raced to the chapel and searched. They found her on the chapel stage. Her radio was discovered "a good distance from her" under some of the first row of chairs, Willis said. The radio's microphone had been ripped from its cord. Biendl was fully clothed, including her coat, and she still had her keys, Willis said. Officials said there is no obvious evidence that Biendl was sexually assaulted. Scherf told a nurse he was unsure how he got the scratch marks on his buttocks. He refused to undergo any examination of his genital or pelvic region. The detective's affidavit noted that prison-issue pants would resist fingernail scratches, and given the suspect's injuries, "there is evidence inmate Scherf's pants were down at the time of the assault upon Officer Biendl. Bite marks on the hands of inmate Scherf are consistent with defensive wounds sustained by Scherf." Detectives have sent some of Scherf's clothing to the Washington State Crime Lab, Willis said. She didn't believe Scherf had spoken with investigators Tuesday. He wanted to have an attorney present, and those arrangements still were being made. Biendl's killing was the first on-duty death of a corrections officer caused by an inmate in the 100-year history of the Monroe correctional complex. The death will be independently reviewed by National Institute of Corrections, an agency within the U.S. Department of Justice. The surveillance cameras in the chapel area were working, but there was none in the sanctuary itself, where Biendl was found. Union leaders say Biendl had safety concerns about the chapel and wanted more surveillance. The post had been staffed by a single corrections officer for at least 15 years. In a sworn statement released Tuesday, prison Sgt. Jimmy Fletcher said Biendl placed a work order on his desk in August or September requesting additional cameras in the chapel. "Under normal procedure, I would not be informed about whether the work order was ultimately approved or not, and I did not hear anything more about this work order after I put it in (the captain's) box," he said in his sworn statement provided by Teamsters Local 117. Corrections Secretary Eldon Vail said his agency so far has found no record of the request. "We will include that in our internal investigation that will begin immediately after local police complete their criminal investigation," Vail said in a written statement. According to the search warrant, two prison lieutenants searched hours of digital video recording footage but could not find any images of the attack. They did identify Scherf leaving his unit and returning during an evening meal. The chapel is usually one of the safest places, where inmates tend to be on their best behavior, prison officials said. The Monroe complex houses roughly 2,500 of the state's 16,000 inmates. It is made up of five separate prisons on 340 acres, housing minimum- to maximum-security prisoners. It has been a tough time for everyone at the prison, Lewis said. A prison cannot shut down for an investigation, and the work actually increases during a time of stress. "Staff are feeling scared, frustrated and upset, every emotion there is, back and forth," he said. The reformatory inmates have been locked in their cells since Sunday. The lockdown has been modified in the prison's other units, allowing those inmates out of their cells for meals. Inmates, too, have been showing sorrow over Biendl's death, he said. The corrections department has grief counselors working inside the prison. Eric Stevick: 425-339-3446, firstname.lastname@example.com

Critical Read
What: A MeriTalk study titled "The Big Data Cure," released March 24. The study was underwritten by EMC.
Why: Emerging technologies offer the potential to fundamentally change the way federal agencies handle health care and medical research. While big data offers big benefits, the study suggests health-care agencies must take steps now to increase their readiness to ingest, analyze and store massive increases in data.
Of 150 federal IT and business executives from health-care-related agencies surveyed, fewer than 20 percent said their organization is prepared to work with big data. Thirty-four percent reported spending on IT systems to optimize data processing, and only 29 percent said their agency had properly trained IT professionals ready to manage and analyze big data.
However, agencies are investing in new technologies like mobile health (mHealth) solutions and machine-to-machine (M2M) technologies that automate the sharing of health care-related data – 34 percent of those surveyed reported their agency using mHealth. Within two years, 53 percent of respondents said their agencies would implement M2M technologies because of its potential to reduce the cost of patient care.
Overall, 59 percent of respondents believe that in five years, successfully leveraging big data will be critical to fulfilling their agency's mission objectives.
Verbatim: How will big data help?

Adebayor's commitment
I'll give you that he appears to have a track record of it, but I like his 'style' when playing well. He holds the ball up well (he didn't against WH admittedly), brings others into play and scores.
I prefer that style to the out and out striker like Daffy personally.
So I suppose I'm hoping that his track record isn't how he'll be with us and that this lean spell is just that, a spell.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies

Well I hope it is a "spell", but if he can't get excited with late winners I don't expect him to battle back to form any time soon. I anticipate he will be moving on at season's end and the question will be "did he leave or was he pushed".

Uo to 4 Re's so this'll be the last word! (This will be like a game - who posts last).
To be perfectly honest, I don't care about not celebrating or kissing badges or taking your shirt off to show a message saying blah... I'd just like to see a player stay and play well.
I'm a bit jaded by all the '...it was my childhood club .... It's like a dream come true to play for...' and then buggering off as soon as a better pay packet comes along.
BAE I like - others don't - but he does ok for me. OK, he may not like football, but he's served us well. If Ade can (or wants to) turn this spell around, then I'll be happy - even if he never celebrates a goal again.
Sunday eh though? If Daffy's fit, who would you then play? I think I would give Ade the first 45-60 and then switch if it didn't work.

This is not that. (I haven't had the time yet to do my census, but it should be within the next week or so).
But what I can already tell before walking the streets is that 2012 was rough on Georgetown restaurants.
By my count, there were 15 restaurants (or other food shops) that closed between February 2012 and February 2013. That compares with just 11 closures in 2011 (which itself was a tough year). In 2010 only five restaurants closed.

It has been awhile since I have been on. They stopped my Chemo side effects were to great. Since then I have been going for my blood work every three months. This is my question my first CEA Level was .08 my most recent one was 1.1 doctor seemed concerned alittle so they are redoing the labs in three weeks. It has only been 6 months since my last chemo treatment. I know the level is in the normal range, but it boths me that it has moved at all. I am a non smoker and my doc makes it seem like that is the only thing that will change it besides caner. So I am alot concerned. Any advice
Jun 17, 2011 - 11:05 pm
Yes, it is still within normal limits. It is my understanding that it is normal for the CEA to vary some up and down within the normal limits. From my understanding, even if it went up to almost 4, that shouldn't be a reason to worry. Now, if it goes up above normal limits, then you would maybe have more reason to be concerned. Interesting to me that your onc is so concerned with it going up to 1.1. That is very, very low. I really wouldn't worry about it if I were you, but do keep getting it checked.
Hang in there!
Jun 17, 2011 - 11:41 pm
I guess it worries me more since we had to stop the chemo after #2. I do know that after surgery here was no detectible cancer in me. They were only doing it since it has went to 1 lymph. Thanks it makes me feel better. And I am having a disagreement with my onc doc. And my family doc is filling in till I can find a new onc doc. But I do feel better thank you.
Jun 18, 2011 - 1:15 am
I know it's scary, mine originally was over 2000, it went down to I think 2.4 after surgery, and then slowly began rising, for the past 3 or 4 months, to 3.4, then this past Friday back down to 3.0. My onc says it's all natural, quit worrying, so I am, heck I've got a life to live. But yes, like you I was scared, but it's NORMAL
Oct 17, 2013 - 11:03 am
Hi, Not sure if you are still an active member on here or not. I was diagnosed at 48 this summer and my CEA level was 1.4 which didn't concern me as up to 5 is normal. I noticed on your comment you stated you had surgery and it went to 1 lymph node.. Can they tell if the cancer is in the lymph node without doing surgery? Reason I ask is they removed my cancer at time of scope 90% cancer cells but clear margin underneath. They've recommended colon resection of 12-18 inches just to "see" if in any of the lymph nodes..which I think is kind of extensive given a clear margin under polpy and normal CEA levels. Can they do a PET scan and tell if lymph nodes are impacted in lieu of yanking out via surgery?
Oct 18, 2013 - 10:14 am
Hi Debbie, sorry you're here. I know what you're going through looking for answers. Next time instead of replying to an old post start a new post and a lot of people will be there to help. Sometimes the people on a thread have died and it can be upsetting to people who were close to them. That said, to your question.
I can only tell you what happened with my husband. After the colonoscopy he had another scope by an endoscopic doc to stage the tumor and look for lymph nodes in the immediate area, he found three. The CT scan showed at least three more on the iliac artery. He then had a PET scan, all the nodes lit up. At this point the endoscopic doc did a biopsy on the iliac nodes and they were all positive.
I won't tell you what to do but why not ask for additional tests before surgery and take it from there. Keeping in mind that not seeing a node or seeing only nodes of normal size probably means they are okay but in reality they can contain cancer cells. Armed with tests and working with a good surgeon will tell you much more and lead you to the best course of action.
Good luck, keep us posted.
Jun 18, 2011 - 3:32 pm
That level shouldn't concern you, and I'm wondering why your doctor is making such a concern or for that matter, even thought much about it. You are right, it is within the normal range. A lot of doctors don't put much faith in it and never test their patients for the marker. Articles claim that it's not always reliable, so with it so low, you shouldn't worry. Yup, easier said than done.
Jun 18, 2011 - 7:52 pm
My oncologist has repeatedly assurd me that many factors influence CEA levels. My CEA is checked every 3 mos. The last 4 checks have been slowly rising: 2.4; 2.8; 3.2; 3.6. There is no scan evidence of disease. If your CEA continues to rise, you may want to consider a CT scan or PET scan.
Jun 19, 2011 - 12:25 am
Anxiety, hopefully, is your biggest concern.
I will have to ask what my 'base' number was 11/10 and my follow up number was 3/11 when I go in for a new test Thursday.
Wish me luck, BTW.
PS maybe I shouldn't ask
Jun 19, 2011 - 9:39 pm
I hear from some people who there docs say many things influence CEA levels. I have also been told that there are only two things that increase your CEA levels and that is cigerette smoke also second hand and cancer. I dont know what to believe. I have even asked my family doc and he says the same things smoke and cancer the only two things that will increase it. It may flucuate some but not steadily increase. And since I dont smoke and try to stay away from those who do when my number increases is scares the crap out of me.
Jun 19, 2011 - 12:07 pm
Hi I'm new here. 7 months post chemo. I have a concern and question. My CEA level has been slowly rising. Everytime I get the blood checked it's going up. 0.9, 126.96.36.199. and recently it was 2.4. You see the upward trend? I am really nervous about this. I also have an inguinal/groin lymph node. I was Stage II with negative lymphnodes, went through 6 months of FOLFOX regimen, but had to stop the Oxaliplatin after my 3rd dose due to an anaphylactic reaction. So I'm nervous because I didn't get the full FOLFOX regimen.
Thanks Francine
Jun 19, 2011 - 9:34 pm
I know how you feel 6 months post chemo. I never used to worry about any medical issue, it felt like anytime anything was wrong I would make a doc appt and it would go away. Now every little thing that isn't right or cant be explained right away I worry about. I also had to stop my treatments I only made it to number two. So I am in a perpetual worrying state. Was it enough chemo treatment some docs believe its really only the first two or three treatments that really work the rest is overkill. I hope they are right. I know some may say including docs and frieds not to worry just wait and see. I dont care I have everything looked at. I figure if its comes to the worst Im the one who is dieing nobody else so I dont care how doc may look at me and say just relax. I only get one life and I intend to stay here so I check everything.
Jun 20, 2011 - 6:14 pm
My onc tells me he would only really worry if my CEA rose three times between tests. so a rise from 0.9 to 2.4 wouldn't phase him, not to mention if it only rose slightly between tests. I'm not sure what other oncs would say.
I also didn't get my full oxi regimen. So I think I know those feelings you are feeling. I don't fear so much anymore, since I've been chemo free for about a year now and my CEA is stable. Just remember there are many things that will influence a CEA and make it fluctuate and rise.
Jun 19, 2011 - 10:27 pm
Praying you get great results when you get the CEA taken again!
Jun 20, 2011 - 3:25 pm
Thanks for understanding and support!
Just so nervous and having to wait until July7! Hope the CEA drops a little.
Jun 20, 2011 - 6:25 pm
would not be a problem in those very low levels!.

Boobs and fighting go hand in hand. Why do you think that most bar fights happen in the first place?
So, what could be more appropriate on an MMA page than a breakdown of the best racks in MMA? Far too much emphasis is put on kicks, punches and elbows. Knuckles aren't sexy, shins aren't sexy... okay, feet are kind of sexy, but we can do better.
Well, maybe fight results or fighter interviews, but boobs come a close third. Enjoy!

To examine the association between breast cancer risk factors and second primary cancers (independent diagnoses occurring at least 12 months after the initial breast cancer diagnosis) among breast cancer survivors.
In this population-based study, cancer outcomes among breast cancer survivors first diagnosed during 1987–2000 were investigated. Invasive breast cancer cases were identified from the statewide tumor registry and interviewed regarding their pre-diagnosis risk factors, including reproductive and lifestyle characteristics, approximately 1 year after diagnosis. Data on second primary cancers (not recurrences) and deaths were obtained by linkage with tumor registry reports and death certificates through December 31, 2002. Hazard ratios (HR) were estimated using proportional hazards regression stratified by age and adjusted for stage and other factors.
Among the 10,953 breast cancer cases, 10.8% experienced a second cancer diagnosis within an average of 7 years (including 488 breast, 132 colorectal, 113 endometrial, and 36 ovarian cancers). Risk of a second primary breast cancer increased according to low parity (P = 0.002), older age at menopause (P = 0.08), greater body mass index (P = 0.003) and adult weight gain (P = 0.02), and a family history of breast cancer-particularly among women with 2 or more first-degree affected relatives (HR = 1.8, 95% CI: 1.1–2.9). Reduced risk of colorectal cancer after breast cancer was observed in relation to older ages at menarche (P = 0.05), younger age at menopause (P = 0.04), postmenopausal hormone use (HR = 0.4, 95% CI: 0.3–0.7), normal body mass index (P = 0.07), and infrequent alcohol consumption (P = 0.01). Second endometrial cancer risk was associated with increasing body mass index (P < 0.01) and adult weight gain (P = 0.03). Risk of second ovarian cancer appeared related to recent alcohol intake and family history of breast cancer. Women who reported consuming any alcohol appeared to have a 55% reduction in ovarian cancer risk (95% CI: 0.2–1.0) compared to non-drinkers, while having 2 or more first-degree relatives with breast cancer was associated with an increased risk of ovarian cancer (HR = 4.3, 95% CI: 1.3–14.6).
This study suggests that family history of breast cancer as well as potentially modifiable characteristics including body weight, alcohol intake, and postmenopausal hormone use may be associated with risk of a second cancer diagnosis among breast cancer cases.

Recent decisions by CRA have assessed some campgrounds as being "too small" to qualify for the small business deduction, resulting in tax rates that are over three times greater than all other small businesses in Canada (and greater than some billion dollar enterprises)
