100 Percent Free iPad Stand
Making DIY stands out of the packaging our tech comes shipped in is a really brilliant idea when you think about it.
The packaging inside the box is usually designed to perfectly cradle the device inside, and never is that more true than with Apple. We first saw the phenomenon when crafty techies began adapting the iPhone's in-box packing to make cradles that held their phone up perfectly for movie-watching.
Now the recyclable cardboard covers that came gripped around each end of your new iPad can be cut to be the perfect multi-functional iPad stand, still allowing for access to the home button and all of your iPad's ports while it's "docked."
(And if your significantly more dumb and less crafty iPad-toting friends have already thrown away the packaging, it's good to know you can make up to four with just the stuff from one iPad box)
If you're interested, just follow the very easy and diagram-ed instructions in the image above from Flickr user Ian Collins.

boyhood heroes
Wanted to hear from Arsenal fans about there favourite player who they would always pretend to be at school I'm Not talking about the best arsenal players just your personal heroes!! I was always either Ian Wright, Tony Adams or Paul Merson!! The Mers was a Legend!! (Andres Limpar was one my favourites too!!)Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
Has to be Ian Wright for me as he was able to score every type of goal and loads of them which was a hell of a feat when you consider the quality of some of the players around him ie Hillier, Selley, Jensen, McGoldrick etc.
It makes me laugh when people say we have a one-man team as we have loads of match winners other than Henry. When Wright played for us it was a one man team as the amount of games he won off his own back was incredible. It's a shame he is such a media whore these days though!

have to say Liam Brady and Kenny Sansom
It had to be Ian wright wright wright!! If I was in goal seeeaaaaman. but I was always tryin go past people with the pace I use to hav and try and score so it had to be wrighty!!

If I was in goal it would have to be Swindin,if I was a forward I'd be Jimmy Logie,or defence it would have to be Leslie Compton who was the first real defensive halfback.I guess I'm really showing my age now.
Ian Wright all the way :D
And Perry Groves (when I didn't understand footy... he got the biggest cheer so he was automatically a legend :))
- 1 Reply to DC
Oh dear, really showing my age now, but am I bovvered?
John Radford ("Big Raddy") was my idol as a teenager. He was a traditional, gutsy centre forward who contributed to the return of the glory years at Highbury - the Fairs Cup Final victory, the Double, etc.
seeing that I only really started following football/soccer in the last decade and I've been a gooner since then, I can only really go back the last ten years. I played when I was very little (well over 25 years ago) and only for a short time. So if I were still able to play (my knees are pretty much like Marky Overmars' - toast) , I would love to be able to emulate Freddie Ljungberg or Gilberto, they do all the little things that you need middies to do without question. Granted we all can't be the Thierry Henrys, Dennis Bergkamps and Charlie Georges, you definately need the Gilberto's on your team.

Well if I was slide tackling someone then I was Adams. (I just getting a crunching tackle in, the guys I play friendly games over here in the states don't seem to know what a sliding tackle is)).
If I was about to hoof the ball skywards (usually trying to score a goal) then I'd be Wrighty.
My mate Wull (Warren) when he was a young lad (8 or 9) a lot of us used to call him Charlie because he had great skill on the ball.

For me it will always be Pat Jennings - he was a real ball stopper.

One of my school mates in Juniour school was a big Arsenal fan too and whenever we played football he would always be Perry Groves!!!

He was awful, he really was, but he did score in a cup final I suppose. Loads of pace but no skill, with ginger hair and loads of freckles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Going to show my age here but for me, it had to be Malcolm Macdonald with an honourable mention for Charlie George

Beat me to it , I was always Supermac when I was a boy !!
Although, when i played in goal - Bob Wilson
Had to be Liam Brady - pure class

I think we're really gonna see the age difference now on this board aren't we!! I loved rocky although I only remember the latter stages of his career,
All time it has to be Bergkamp; but old ones include Kenny Sansom, Rocky, Tony Woodcock and Brian Marwood.
Does anyone remember Martin Hayes, I saw him score a cracker against Wimbledon at Selhurst, liked him too but he failed to live up to his talent.

I went though some of the CSS code myself as well as copying and pasting the source code to Dreamweaver and trying to nail it down there. I went into my CSS for my theme and tried to change any "#FFFFFF" background I can find to "#CECECE" and I still see no results.
I'm sure this is very simple, but I obviously need some help here. When I pieced apart the source code on my theme, I found taking away this code below actually wiped away the white space where the content goes...
EXAMPLE... </div>
which I found strange. Not an expert coder here but I am totally willing to learn. Just want to change my background white space to gray.

Andover had beaten the McPherson American Legion Seniors the previous two times the teams had met.
Post 24 made sure there wasn't a repeat performance Tuesday night at Grant Sports Complex, as they exploded for 25 total runs between the two first innings of the doubleheader, crushing Andover 20-6 and 13-1.
"There wasn't a ton of difference, as far as players," McPherson coach Craig Marshall said of the first two times the two teams had met. "We were missing some guys and they were missing some guys. The thing is the way we play. The way we are doing our work, doing our business. We've got to take care of our business and not worry about who's out there on the field. And I think you saw that tonight."
Andover got two runs in during the top of the first, but McPherson took advantage of weak Andover pitching in game one, as the first four batters reached off of walks or were hit by pitches. Tanner DeVore busted the game wide open with a line-drive single to center field that scored Ethan Blouin and Aaron Marshall.
Post 24 would bat a full two rounds in the first inning, highlighted by a Marshall two-RBI triple to right field that pushed the game to 10-2. McPherson (12-15) would score one in the second and five more in the fifth to finish out the run-rule shortened game.
Game two started out much the same way, with McPherson jumping out to a 11-0 lead after the first inning. Blouin had the highlight of the inning with a three-RBI triple to center field.
Post 24 added two more runs in the third inning.
Brodie Burney, who went the complete game in game two for the win, also finished the doubleheader with seven total RBIs. Blouin had five RBIs and seven runs scored.
"(The) offense was just tremendous," Craig Marshall said. "I think, hopefully, we're clicking at the right time."
Zach Likely notched the win in game one, giving up six runs off six hits, striking out two and walked two.
McPherson is back in action tonight, as they host Great Bend, whom they beat June 18 11-1. First pitch at Grant Sports Complex is at 6 p.m.

MILFORD, N.H. (AP) � Police in New Hampshire say they performed a record number of background checks on handgun buyers the day following the mass killing at a Connecticut elementary school.
State police say officers processed a record 468 background checks on Dec. 15. The previous one-day record was 286, in April.
Sgt. Sean Hagerty tells The Nashua Telegraph (http://bit.ly/VdV0Gc ) that nearly 1,500 background checks have been performed in the past week.
Police in Connecticut say 20-year-old Adam Lanza killed his mother at their Newtown, Conn., home on Dec. 14 before going to Sandy Hook Elementary School and killing 20 students, six adults and himself.

I figured that 500 words and 5 themes weren't enough to cover some of the things I wanted to squeeze into the main "Mass Mayhem." So I'm picking seven of the 20 weeks and writing up a "deleted scene" for each (without a word limit). This week is for Week 1.

Beyond Limits
by Universitas
1. Victor Shepard – Earthborn
After the Fact
"So I guess this makes us fags."
Victor and Jake sat on trashcans on opposite sides of an alley. Both of them avoided eye contact; Victor chose Jake's knife as the focus of his gaze, while Jake stared off towards the alley's end.
"Yeah," Jake said. "I guess."
"If the others ever find out…"
"I know, dammit." Jake's stare drifted to the rusted metal ground. He slid his thumb up and down on the knife, retracting and extending its blade over and over. "They'll beat the shit out of us and leave us to the Fangs or something."
"Guess this is a fuck-up, then. We shouldn't go on with this."
Jake looked up at him; doing so drew Victor's eyes as well. "I didn't say that. I—" He sighed. "Lemme say this again. They'll try to beat the shit out of us. But the Old Man would kill them first. Without us, the Reds are outta hackers. The Old Man's not the fag-hating kind of guy, anyways."
"You never know."
"I don't think he'd be surprised."
Jake was set on it, and as always, there was no stopping him. Also as always, Victor was dragged right along with him. But it wasn't like he didn't want it. It was different. Intense. Dangerous. Victor kinda liked that.
There you go, another piece of Victor Shepard's story. Thanks for reading!

Hi jlcoleman71
If you check your error log you'll almost definitely find a Fatal error (out of memory or max execution time exceeded). Solutions are covered in my FAQ (in summary contact your Web Host).
Another possible solution is to reduce the number of records (down at the bottom of the settings page).
So if you've got 1000 posts, you might need to do two exports:
offset: 1, limit: 500
offset: 501, limit: 500
I realise this is annoying, and I have a new version in development already where this is not necessary.
Best wishes
having the same issue. tried updating my wp-config file, htaccess and php.ini file to increase memory limits. Got that to work, but I'm still getting a blank screen. Set my memory limits to 600, 1200, and 6000 and none of them worked. I can't even get an export to happen for
offset: 1 limit: 2
or anything of minimal size
I'm trying to just export posts at the moment too. I have 11,501 rows if I export everything which I'm not trying to do at this time. Any other tips?
Hi Allen
Thanks for reporting it. I suspect you're getting a different error, or your server is already under a lot of load. ie a woocommerce site with certain themes often needs between 40-64MB minimum these days.
If you contact me directly via my site, and can give me FTP access, then I'd be happy to take a quick look at it for you.
Best wishes
Thanks Paul, I will do that. my site is currently run locally on my computer so that's likely the issue, once I go to my production environment and see the same issue I'll contact you. I"m running it on MAMP at the moment on my macbook pro which is fast, but probably not fast enough for a site of the size i'm building.
thanks again
Yeah, if you get the page loading graphic for approx 30 seconds and then the white screen, it's most likely a timeout. If it happens sooner, then it's more likely to be the memory limit reached.
You can fix both issues by editing your php.ini file.
Best wishes

The companion text to Occupational Therapy without Borders - Volume 1: learning from the spirit of survivors!
In this landmark text writers from around the world discuss a plurality of occupation-based approaches that explicitly acknowledge the full potential of the art and science of occupational therapy. The profession is presented as a political possibilities-based practice, concerned with what matters most to people in real life contexts, generating practice-based evidence to complement evidence-based practice. As these writers demonstrate, occupational therapies are far more than, as some critical views have suggested, a monoculture of practice rooted in Western modernity. Nobel Peace Laureate Desmond Tutu captures the ethos of this book, which essentially calls for engagements in the service of a purpose that is larger than the advancement of our profession's interests: "Your particular approach to advancing our wellbeing and health strikes me as both unique and easily taken for granted. Whilst you value and work with medical understandings, your main aim seems to go beyond these. You seem to enable people to appreciate more consciously how what we do to and with ourselves and others on a daily basis impacts on our individual and collective wellbeing. As occupational therapists you have a significant contribution to make [.] allowing people from all walks of life to contribute meaningfully to the wellbeing of others."
- Links philosophy with practical examples of engaging people in ordinary occupations of daily life as a means of enabling them to transform their own lives
- Includes contributions from worldwide leaders in occupational therapy research and practice
- Describes concrete initiatives in under-served and neglected populations
- Looks at social and political mechanisms that influence people's access to useful and meaningful occupation
- Chapters increase diversity of contributions – geographically, culturally and politically
- Emphasis on practice, education and research maintains academic credibility
- A glossary and practical examples in nearly every chapter make text more accessible to students

About Me
Hello, my dear gentlemen!
My name is Eva, recently brought to the capital of the world by my constant thirst for adventure and exploration. Pleasurable as my life here has been, it is never completely such without a charming gentleman by my side. Being a true woman from head to toe, I need flirting and romance to survive: they are my passion, my vocation, the air I breathe. I enjoy spending time with successfull older men and I love spoiling them and letting them spoil me!;)
About me:
My aristocratic porcelain skin, captivating grey eyes, sensuous lips and luscious hair never fail to turn heads and break hearts. However, the image of a femme fatale is nicely balanced by my natural kindness and friendliness. I've been told that I have a wonderful sense of humor and warm outgoing personality which makes you feel at ease from the moment we first meet.
Should you wish to spend an evening at the theater or at a social event with a special someone, I'll be glad to accompany you and make your experience a truly memorable one. I am highly educated and well-traveled, soI can easily maintain a conversation on any topic, which is essential for a successful date.
I strongly believe that a real GFE experience involves a deep connection on all levels: emotional, physical and intellectual. That's why I prefer to spend time with a very limited circle of friends, which allows us to form long-lasting relationships and provides for a memorable, one of a kind romantic encounter. I love what I do and strive to excel at it, tailoring every one of our dates to your wishes.
Our rendez-vous
Your safety and discretion is my greatest priority, as it's crucial for both of us to feel relaxed and comfortable during our date. After exchanging standard screening information, we can schedule a meeting. We will meet in a luxury hotel of your choice or, if you find it more convenient, I will be glad to host in my cozy downtown apartment. Advance bookings always work best with my busy schedule, however, sometimes I may be able to accommodate same day appointments.
Sending you love, light and soft kisses!

Norway's overall World Cup leader Martin Johnsrud Sundby pipped Russian Maxim Vylegzhanin in a scramble on the line for bronze, prompting the Russian team to file a protest against the result, claiming that Sundby has cut across his opponent.
The protest was rejected but the International Ski Federation (FIS) said in a statement that Sundby had been given "a written reprimand for a corridor rules infraction".
"I was tired by the end of the race and I had fog in my glasses," the Norwegian told a news conference.
"Maybe I left my line a little bit but I don't think it changed anything. I'm sorry about that."
Russia, however, are likely to appeal the decision.
"The Russian Olympic Committee wants to appeal before the Court of Arbitration for Sport," Russian ski federation president Elena Vyalbe said in a statement on the Russian Olympic team website.
The appeal will not impact on Cologna, however.
"It's great, a dream come true," he said. "It's very special. I won here in the (2013) World Cup in Sochi, I just wanted to do the same again."
Cologna, the 15km freestyle Vancouver Olympics champion, sustained an ankle injury while jogging just before the season started and returned to the World Cup circuit last weekend.
"It's very special for me to win after my injury in November. I didn't expect to be on the podium," he said.
"I can't believe I won the first race."
Not being among the seeded skiers on Sunday meant Cologna started just behind the main pack of 20 but he quickly got among the leading bunch and never left it.
Heavily-fancied Norwegian Petter Northug, a four-times medallist in Vancouver, appeared at the front some five kilometres from home but eventually cracked and drifted in 17th.
Cologna made his break on the final short climb and never looked back, beating Hellner, who had won the event -- then called 'pursuit' -- in Vancouver by 0.4 seconds.
"It feels great," Hellner said. "I had a good feeling throughout the race. Dario was a little bit stronger. I couldn't follow him. I felt a bit stiff in the legs at the end."
In skiathlon, skiers race the first half of the course on classic technique skis, then exchange them for skating skis in the stadium and finish the event using the free technique. The timer does not stop while the skiers change skis.

Bunk Room
in The Cabin
I apologize for not posting in such a long time. Working on the house, running in the woods with the grandchildren and playing a little pickle ball leaves me ready for bed by the time the sun disappears. I'll try to do better, but no promises.
With everything there is to do to finish our house, where do we start? The kitchen? No. How about our bedroom? Negatory there too. Maybe it should be the living room so we have a place to welcome guests? Again not a top priority.
Susan and I decided the most important room to finish first would be the bunk room for our grandchildren. It's a room above the log cabin living room that measures 18′ x 24′, contains a bathroom and has a 21'6″ vaulted ceiling. Our idea is to make this a fun, indestructable space for our grandchildren to build memories in.
Last year Evan and I installed the beginnings of a loft in the bunk room with some locust logs scavanged from our lot.
This summer I found friend Phillip Steen was available to help me with work on the bunk room. One of many neat aspects about getting Phillip involved in the cabin remodel is that he helped Susan's father build our cabin the first time when it was under construction thirty years ago. Phillip has hand built several log homes and a lot of furniture since he worked on the cabin the first time, so he's not only helping me with his hands, he is also helping me think through all the challenges of cabin building.
Here we are letting the balcony floor joists into the locust log with a chisel. As a hardness frame of reference, chiseling locust makes cutting oak feel marshmellowish.
After letting in the joists we installed a sub floor of t&g pine.
It took a little fine tuning with the adze to lay the sub floor board next to the locust log. I really was working on this project even though the photos don't reveal it!
After the sub floor we installed oak flooring. You may remember we are using a character oak floor, 4″ wide and cut from several species of Florida oak that we brought to NC from a little sawmill in Eustis, Florida.
Also shown in this photo are the added locust posts that will form a railing on the loft. We don't want our grandchildren falling 9′ to the floor below. A ladder will be installed in between the two posts on the right.
After the loft floor was installed we paneled the bathroom walls with barn board that used to cover the back part of our house before the cabin remodel. This barn board originally came from a barn in Grainger county Tennessee. Before the barn in Tennessee the boards were standing timber in a virgin forest. Because of the tight grain, these boards are sound and straight even though they have been exposed to weather for more than 100 years.
Next came the ceiling. We decided on using rough sawmill cut white pine planks for the ceiling of the bunk room. Since the boards are not planed, there is variation in thickness that can be seen in the photographs.
At the time this photograph was taken we were installing a row of can lights. Because of the 14/12 pitch of the ceiling the can lights ended up looking like portholes and was detracting from the rustic look we are going for so we took them out and went in a different direction with lighting.
Reaching the top of the ceiling required filling the room with scaffolding.
Fifteen feet above the floor we used some rough-sawn recalimed pine and hemlock 2×6's to form fake trusses. Since we used timber loc screws to install the trusses they end up being structural. Instead of can lights we settled on four pendant lights in a wire cage that have an industrial look, unfortunately they are on back order right now so you are seeing bare bulbs.
Truss detail is a stylized arrow.
Son Evan and daughter Joy Lynne had to test the new loft…which caused problems with the grandsons because we would not let them on the loft without a handrail. The clock is ticking for me to get a hand rail up.
Granddaughter Meg loves the woods.
We are pretty happy with our RV, but on a recent trip to Illinois we saw a home-made camper that made me struggle with envy. I followed this truck into a restaurant parking lot to get to talk to the driver. Even though the truck looks crusty, it has been sensitively restored. The camper part he bought on Craig's List. I caught the owner on his way to Colorado. Cool truck!
We're Back in the Mountains
in The Cabin
Yesterday we arrived back at our mountain cabin for the season. We always feel a bit like the Clampetts unloading our two vehicles and vowing each year to find a way to move fewer things back and forth from Florida. After three hours of unloading the vehicles I walked around with my camera taking a […]
Rocker David Payne
in The Cabin
David Payne is a third generation rock star from the mountains of Western North Carolina that most of the world has never heard of. Please don't get confused here, I am not talking about someone who strums guitar strings for a living, David is from the original guild of rockers and has laid stones his […]
Goat Panels
in The Cabin
Finding a solution for the back porch railing for the cabin was even more important to gaining occupancy than the front porch, because the back porch provided greater opportunities for falling lethal distances. After spending several weeks weaving rhododendron branches on the front porch I was looking for an simpler solution as well. Since the back porch […]
The Wormhole

During the fall I found myself in a Barnes and Noble Bookstore doing a little free magazine reading when I came across an article that purported to list the top fifteen coffee shops in the US. Two of the shops they profiled were in Chicago, and since I go there four times a year, I […]
"Working Kitchen"
in The Cabin
When we began our house remodel last year, we talked to Neal our building inspector about what we needed to have completed to get an occupancy permit. He told us all we had to have was a working kitchen and working bathroom. Susan, suspecting it might be a long time before I had the cabin completely finished […]
Work Camp
in The Cabin
For the third time now since we've torn down our cabin and started rebuilding it, friends Scott and Suzanne have called to say they are coming up for work camp. When get a phone call from Scott it usually goes like this: "Hey Lloyd, we've got the weekend of the 27th open and want to come […]
Cabin Porch Railing
in The Cabin
Back during the summer I was having an end of day staff meeting with my friend and electrician Tim Donovan. As we sipped our micro brews and discussed events of the day, the words of our friendly county building inspector were weighing heavy on my mind. To get an occupancy permit I needed to have […]
Chain Saw Windows
in The Cabin
If you live in a log cabin and want to let more light in, just crank up the chain saw. There are no worries about where the wall studs are or the need for headers, just start cutting. Susan caught this view of my chain saw artistry as I was cutting holes for a pair […]
What's in That Barn?
in The Cabin
I'll bet I've passed this barn a thousand times and never pondered the question "what's in it?" The barn is located just three tenths of a mile from our cabin and years ago was used as stables for Wolf Laurel. As I have come to find out in recent weeks, since the stables closed the […]

"The belief in progress, not as an ideal but as an indisputable fact, not as a task for humanity but as a law of Nature, has been the working faith of the West for about a hundred and fifty years."
Related quotes
"I pity the Gods, I feel so sorry for them. A common God has infinity power, has knowledge of emotions but never felt them nor does the God has the ability to grow stronger or weaker. Unlike humans, we have the different kind of power. We can push limits up no matter how high it can get, we can feel love and hate, we can even learn and explore. But to already know it all must be so damn boring. Gods will never understand us, will never understand how lucky we are."
"There is only one cause of unhappiness: the false beliefs you have in your head, beliefs so widespread, so commonly held, that it never occurs to you to question them."
"Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising which tempt you to believe that your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires courage."
"Whatever career you may choose for yourself - doctor, lawyer, teacher - let me propose an avocation to be pursued along with it.
Become a dedicated fighter for civil rights.
Make it a central part of your life. It will make you a better doctor, a better lawyer, a better teacher.
It will enrich your spirit as nothing else possibly can. It will give you that rare sense of nobility that can only spring from love and selflessly helping your fellow man.
Make a career of humanity.
Commit yourself to the noble struggle for human rights.
You will make a greater person of yourself, a greater nation of your country and a finer world to live in."
"There is no God, no universe, no human race, no earthly life, no heaven, no hell. It is all a dream, a grotesque and foolish dream. Nothing exists but you. And you are but a thought --a vagrant thought, a useless thought, a homeless thought, wandering forlorn among the empty eternities!"

My 2014 SF 49ers mock draft
-When it comes to re-signing players, who knows. Personally, I'd like them to do away with Rogers, Brown and Whitner. Brown and Whitner will demand too much and Rogers just simply doesn't have it anymore. That's why I have us drafting 3 CBs and a safety. The thing all these guys have in common is size..and thunder. Ring a bell?...Seattle.
-I know our coaching staff likes to move guys around, so that's why I have them drafting 2 DE/DL prospects.
-Attaochu has the intangibles to play OLB..possibly ILB.
-On offense, we must resign Boldin. A 2 year deal sounds good.
Free Agents
-Julian Edelman or Jacoby Jones as a returner. I'd like to see if we could get a pick out of Lamichael James..he's clearly not the answer. Edelman and Jones shouldn't demand too much..field position is important.
-Maybe trade one of our 7ths for Jonathan Martin..Stanford guy..he's big..Harbaugh knows him.
Davante Adams-WR
Fresno State
6-2 216
131-1718-24 tds
Love him. Don't need to trade up for him..might as well trade back and pick up a 2014 pick. Has great hands and seperation. Great size too..could push 220-225 in an NFL weight room.
2) (via Chiefs) Bradley Roby-CB
Ohio State
5-11 192
3 ints, 68 tackles
Ball-hawking corner
2) Deone Bucannan-SS
Washington State
6-1 220
109 tackles, 5 ints, 3 forced fumbles
--My goodness does this guy hit hard..Bucannan and Reid as safeties frightens me. Both hard-hitting athletes.
3) (via Titans) Jeremiah Attaochu- OLB/DE
Georgia Tech
6-3 252
12 sacks, 15.5 TFL
Reminds me of Aldon Smith. Not as big but the athleticism is there.
3) Dominique Easley-DE/DL
6-2 282
Out basically whole year
Great to stash for a year
3) (comp) Troy Niklas-TE
6-7 270
-comparable to Gronk
-very athletic
-Vance McDonald is a great blocker..but he seems to disappear on passing downs.
4) (via Titans) Chris Borland-LB
5-11 248
2013-111 tackles, 4 sacks
2012-107 tackles, 4.5 sacks
2011-136 tackles, 2.5 sacks
-Mayock calls him a "sawed off Luke Kuechly
-He's an animal. Covers alot of room.
-Hopefully Bowman is back sooner rather then later..but you never know.
-Will compete with Moody and Lemonier
4) Stanley Jean Baptiste-CB
6-3 220
4 ints, 41 tackles
-Big corner..has all the intangibles. All he needs to do is give %100.
5) Antone Exum-CB
Virginia Tech
6-1 224
Did not play in 2013
2012--- 47-5 ints
Same as Jean - Baptiste. Has the potential.
6) Corey Linsley-C
Ohio State
6-3 298
Very mobile and strong Center. Has played every position on the O-Line. I know Kilgore is supposedly the Center of the future..but who knows..Harbaugh loves competition.
7) (via Saints) hopefully traded away
7) (via panthers) hopefully traded away
7) (via Colts) hopefully traded away

Disgusting anticsOctober 31,2013
Disgusting antics
Per the ongoing squabble among City Hall, the mayor, the planning commission, the city planning director and the rest of the parties in this sordid, ongoing story:
My husband and I moved here in 2009 in an escape from Boston in an effort to find a kind and copacetic community. Until recently, its been copacetic indeed; the 3rd of July Parade, the Valentines Day Phantom, First Night, our UU Church and so much else has made us feel like we are part of something wonderful. But to witness this drama of small-minded intimidation, character assassination, he-said-she-said, holier-than-thou, backstabbing garbage happening right now over what began as a clear effort to silence an outlier is beyond disquieting. Its just disgusting.
We might as well just move back to Boston, where we can at least drown our sorrows about the horrors of crazy Congress and the pettiness of small town government in a good cocktail after the sidewalks roll up at 9 p.m.

It was the good, the bad and the odd during the first of five events at the ISSF World Cup held in Suhl, Germany.
Each a contender for an Olympic medal in August, Daniela Del Din of San Marino and defending world champion Liu Yingzi of China claimed silver and bronze, respectively, showcasing each may be ready for the Beijing Games in just over two months.
While some of the familiar names in the sport found success, there was one, a hometown favorite in Susanne Kiermayer, who turned her worst round of the two-day match with a score of 17 out of 25 in the final. The round, which included Kiermayer missing her first four shots, left the world's No. 21 well behind the eventual winner in Italy's Jessica Rossi.
Rossi provided a quick peek into the future for Italy's shooting team, as the 16-year-old junior champion won the first-ever finals she qualified for with a score of 94, two off the world record set in 2006.
While there has been no official announcement regarding who will fill Italy's one Olympic quota for women's trap, it will likely fall into the hands of world No. 2 Deborah Gelisio or No. 4 Giulia Iannotti. Regardless, 2012's team certainly looks crowded if Rossi keeps this pace up.
In men's trap, which will finish Friday, Australian world record holder Michael Diamond holds a one-point lead over six others tied for second with 98 after four rounds.
American Libby Callahan competed in the women's sport pistol event at the age of 56. After finishing 25th in the sport pistol event, she contemplates another Olympics.

Could it be the reality check is about to come? What ever will AAPL,NVDA & QCOM due when they can't get their mythical quanities they claim they can. Wonder if TSMC's PE will go down from 17+ and if INTC's PE will go up from 9+?
According to last TSMC CC less than 50% of 28nm output was HKMG - the goal for 2013 is to increase to more than 50% - I would assume Tegra needs HKMG - so there can still be a shortage of 28nm HKMG wafers. They certainly buy 20nm equipment - 20nm will have challenges with double patterning.
Tegra4 and Snapdragon 600/800 require TSMC's HPM which could be delayed. TSMC has the LP,and HP processes working OK, but I am not sure of their yields.
Copying Intel is tough to do. The 20nm equipment is probably for research. They don't have anyone to copy at 20nm.

There are singers for whom the pop-vs.-country debate doesn't apply - Tracy's voice is so twangy, there's even a twang to his twang. That settled, with a winning set of songs and a sympathetic musical setting he's good to go.
He gets both on Strong, his eighth album and first in two-and-a-half years. The hit "Paint Me a Birmingham" is the most immediate pleasure, and thoughtful tunes like "Stones" add depth. But the rowdy "Sawdust on Her Halo" is enough to make you wish Tracy would kick up his heels a little more often.

One-day hallway cafe teaches about restaurant work
Published: Wednesday, March 31, 2010 at 8:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, March 26, 2010 at 10:03 a.m.
MONROE — A hallway at the Monroe City Schools Career Development Center turned into a makeshift cafe one day this month.
The cooks, servers, waiters and bus boys are all students in the center's food assistant program and the food was prepared from the school's new cookbook, "GED... To Cooking," that was compiled by the Entrepreneurship and Marketing class.
"Today we're serving crawfish casserole, chicken cheese spaghetti, green beans, corn, green salad, homemade rolls, four-layer delight and mandarin orange cake," 17-year-old food assistant student LaKyia Dune said proudly.
The carefully prepared lunch was the second meal of the day for the seven-member crew and their teacher Mollie Harrell. They began the morning with a breakfast of grits, ham, bacon, eggs and biscuits.
The class started slowly several years ago using recipes for brownies and cookies to teach students hands-on measuring and math skills. Since then, both the interest in the class and the focus have changed.
An expanded curriculum with an emphasis on food preparation, cleanliness, kitchen skills and organization now allows students to work toward a food assistant certification. After showing proficiency in the kitchen and taking a test, students can receive their certification and apply for work in a restaurant kitchen.
"I'd like to be a chef," Dune said.
The day of restaurant work was eye-opening for many students.
"They're dragging," Harrell said laughing, "This gives them an idea what it's really like to work in a restaurant. You've got to be organized. You've got to show some initiative and give it some thought."
Students LaDemorques Brown and Kendrick Smith helped cook breakfast and waited tables for lunch.
Brown said his time in the class has sparked an interest in cooking that he didn't know he had and one his mother appreciates. Brown said he often cooks at home using skills he learned in class.
"She compliments me every time I cook," he said.

Despite the Grimes twins from Lucan being among the final 11 acts, Irish fans of the boys can do nothing to keep them in the competition.
The issue was highlighted by judge Louis Walsh on Saturday night's show after Simon Cowell accused him of putting the Grimes twins through to the live stages simply because they are Irish.
Walsh instantly said that would be pointless, quipping: "People in Ireland can't even vote for some reason."
Meanwhile, audience figures for the X Factor results show were boosted again this week as shocked Stephen Gately fans tuned in for any updates about his tragic death.
A whopping 595,000 viewers watched Sunday night first result's show, which marked the introduction of the new 24-hour voting period for the first time in the programme's history.
A spokesperson for TV3, which broadcasts the ITV produced reality series here, told the Herald Mr Gately's sudden death had an impact on the Sunday night's ratings.
"They were definitely up on Sunday night. The figures were absolutely huge and, while we're delighted, we also wish that it were under different circumstances," she said.

Security holes in many PDF components
A bug in the Xpdf 3.02 source code can cause the PDF viewer to crash. Programs that use Xpdf code are affected.
The bug, which has the CVE ID CVE-2007-3387 and is caused by incorrect memory allocation checking in the "StreamPredictor" class constructor. The security hole, which was discovered by Xpdf developer Derek Noonburg himself, would theoretically give an attacker the ability to run code with the privileges of the user running the program. However, a PDF document capable of executing malicious code is unknown at the present
The developers advise users to update PDF Viewer and any programs containing Xpdf code. Candidates include various KDE components such as Kpdf and Koffice. The Gnome desktop environment with its Poppler PDF library is also affected. The KDE project has published source code patches, and several Linux distributions have already built updated packages.

Rebuilding Iraq:
Reconstruction Progress Hindered by Contracting, Security, and Capacity Challenges
GAO-07-426T: Published: Feb 15, 2007. Publicly Released: Feb 15, 2007.
Additional Materials:

The Department of Defense (DOD) has relied extensively on contractors to undertake major reconstruction projects and provide support to its deployed forces, but these efforts have not always achieved desired outcomes. Further, the Iraqi government must be able to reduce violence, sustain reconstruction progress, improve basic services, and make a positive difference in the daily lives of the Iraqi people. This statement discusses (1) factors affecting DOD's ability to promote successful acquisition outcomes on its contracts for reconstruction and for support to deployed forces in Iraq, (2) the deteriorating security situation and the capabilities of the Iraqi security forces, and (3) issues affecting the Iraqi government's ability to support and sustain future reconstruction progress. The testimony is based upon our work on Iraq reconstruction and stabilization efforts, DOD contracting activities, and DOD's use of support contractors spanning several years. This work was conducted in accordance with generally accepted government auditing standards.
The challenges faced by DOD on its reconstruction and support contracts often reflect systemic and long-standing shortcomings in DOD's capacity to manage contractor efforts. Such shortcomings result from poorly defined or changing requirements, the use of poor business arrangements, the absence of senior leadership and guidance, and an insufficient number of trained contracting, acquisition and other personnel to manage, assess and oversee contractor performance. In turn, these shortcomings manifest themselves in higher costs to taxpayers, schedule delays, unmet objectives, and other undesirable outcomes. For example, because DOD authorized contractors to begin work before reaching agreement on the scope and price of that work, DOD paid millions of dollars in costs that were questioned by the Defense Contract Audit Agency. Similarly, DOD lacks visibility on the extent to which they rely on contractors to support their operations. When senior military leaders began to develop a base consolidation plan, officials were unable to determine how many contractors were deployed and therefore ran the risk of over- or under-building the capacity of the consolidated bases. U.S. reconstruction efforts also continue to be hampered by a security situation that continues to deteriorate. Although the number of trained and equipped Iraqi security forces increased to about 323,000 in December 2006 and more Iraqi Army units have taken the lead for counterinsurgency operations, attacks on coalition and Iraqi security forces and civilians have all increased. Aggregate numbers of trained and equipped Iraqi forces, however, do not provide information on the capabilities and needs of individual units. GAO has made repeated attempts to obtain unit-level Transition Readiness Assessments (TRAs) without success. This information is essential for the Congress to make fully informed decisions in connection with its authorization, appropriations, and oversight responsibilities. As the U.S. attempts to turn over its reconstruction efforts, the capacity of the Iraqi government to continue overall reconstruction progress is undermined by shortfalls in the capacity of the Iraqi ministries, widespread corruption and the inability to fund and execute projects for which funds were previously budgeted. Iraqi government institutions are undeveloped and confront significant challenges in staffing a competent, nonaligned civil service; using modern technology; and managing resources and personnel effectively. For example, according to U.S. officials 20 to 30 percent of the Ministry of Interior staff are "ghost employees" whose salaries are collected by other officials. Further, corruption in Iraq poses a major challenge to building an effective Iraqi government and could jeopardize future flows of needed international assistance. Unclear budgeting and procurement rules have affected Iraq's efforts to spend capital budgets effectively and efficiently, according to U.S. officials. At the Ministry of Oil, for example, less than 1 percent of the $3.5 billion budgeted in 2006 for key enhancements to the country's oil production, distribution, and export facilities, had been spent as of August 2006.

If you got the need, the need for speed, then look no further than this costume, the Boys Airline Pilot Costume. This costume brings us back to the better, simpler days Ð at least for airline pilots. You see, there once was a time when our greatest national heroes consisted of astronauts and airline pilots. They were our rock stars (which makes me wonder what rock stars were back then). Pilots flew multimillion dollar pieces of high tech hardware across the world, connecting us all in a way that we never were before. Then the 70's came along, but enough about that.It's a pretty cool costume. You don't need to delve too deeply to get that, because airline pilots are still awesome. Just look at that guy who parked his jet on the Hudson River in 2009. Who wouldn't want to be that guy. The Boys Airline Pilot Costume comes with a shirt (with tie attached), pants, and, without a doubt the most important part of the costume, the pilot's hat, which gives him the power of Sky Law.
Available in Sizes:
2T, 3T-4T, Small, Medium and Large

2012 is, of course, an election year. But along with a year of political campaigning and partisan wrangling the upcoming election also means many political appointees may head for the exits.
When In Depth with Francis Rose asked experts for their 2012 predictions at the end of last month, Stan Soloway, the president of the Professional Services Council, predicted 2012 would be known as the "year of the acting" — referring to the influx of acting directors, secretaries and administrators that would be ushered in if political appointees step down.
Soloway expanded on that idea, explaining whether he thinks attrition will be worse this year compared to other election years as well as how temporary leadership impacts industry.

People who are trying to tighten up their budgets could save hundreds by tightening up their homes.
Air leakage is one of the things that leads to energy loss from a house or other building.
"We're plugging in those air leaks, putting in better insulation, and reducing the cost of the home ownership in utilities by $700-$900 annually," said Bo Smith of Cornerstone Home Lending as he demonstrated how the test works.
The typical home in the United States has a 3 by 3 hole. A small leak can have a tremendous effect.
While fixing those energy hogs may cost you thousands, your utility savings could make up for it in a matter of years.
To find the best ways to make your home more energy efficient, you may contact the state energy office at 601-359-6600, or visit

Directors Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee create a magical 3-D winter wonderland in "Frozen." It's a sisterhood saga loosely based on Hans Christian Andersen's "The Snow Queen," and its thrills and chills are brought to life by an excellent ensemble of voices led by Kristen Bell and Idina Menzel. As Anna and Elsa, respectively, they are sisters and the princesses of the mythical Scandinavian kingdom of Arendelle.
As with the best of Disney musicals, the songs in "Frozen" soar. The original pieces come from Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez, who has a couple of Tonys on his shelf for co-writing "The Book of Mormon" with those "South Park" renegades, Trey Parker and Matt Stone. This makes you wonder whether "Frozen" might be Broadway bound. You'd expect Menzel, who earned a Tony for making Elphaba so deliciously "Wicked," to crush all those soaring notes. But Bell is the stunner.
"Frozen" begins when the princesses are young and wishing for the season's first snowfall. Elsa makes it happen, conjuring up a blizzard — indoors — with magical powers she's just discovering. But the fun soon ends when a slip and a fall puts Anna's life in jeopardy.
Though Anna recovers, Elsa doesn't. Fear of hurting her little sister with her powers sends the princess behind closed doors, separating the girls the entire time they are growing up and presenting the perfect opportunity for one of the film's show-stoppers. A very catchy number called "Love Is an Open Door," it is among the most memorable, in part for the delightful door-slamming antics that accompany it.
The action really gets underway when Elsa comes of age and comes out of seclusion for her coronation. Love is in the air. Anna's already swooning over Prince Hans (Santino Fontana), and a number of suitors are vying for Elsa's hand — glove-covered always to keep her secret secret. Her powers make for some of the film's most stunning animation as snow and ice fly and form into incredible shapes, from lethal shards to towering ice castles.
At the heart of the film is the battle between love and fear. Resolution becomes a long journey when Elsa flees Arendelle, leaving the kingdom locked in winter's fierce grip and Anna searching for her. This is also where the film develops its very playful sense of humor.
Anna's something of a tomboy, forever getting into scrapes, which Bell's comic timing makes absolutely charming. But the entire film is populated by characters who spend a great deal of time teasing and pranking. Among them are the handsome, reclusive mountain man Kristoff (Jonathan Groff) and his reindeer buddy Sven. By turns captivated and incensed by the headstrong Anna, he's soon enlisted in the search. There are rock trolls rolled out to help decipher questions of magic led by Pabbie (Ciaran Hinds). One of the main villains is the scheming Duke of Weselton (Alan Tudyk), a name that always gets a laugh.
And then there is Olaf.
He's a snowman and an animation marvel, designed to keep coming apart and bouncing back together. His broad smile, buck teeth and wide eyes are the very embodiment of innocence and adoration. Josh Gad, who voices Olaf, is so endearing you really do want to just hug him — and, knowing Disney, I'm sure there's a plush toy in the works.
