Rain rules at Arundel
England Under-19s' one-day series against their Sri Lanka counterparts remains locked at 1-1 after no result was possible at Arundel in the third match.
Following the tourists' five-wicket victory at the same venue yesterday, only 11.4 overs were played today in a match that had been reduced to 31 per side.
England captain Paul Best inserted Sri Lanka, who had reached 58 for one when umpires Neil Bainton and Martin Bodenham abandoned play.
Seamer Lewis Gregory made the only breakthrough when he had Ramith Rambukwella caught in the fourth over, before opener Rumesh Buddika and Bhanuka Rajapaksa finished unbeaten on 29 and 24 respectively.
The teams now head to Canterbury for the last two games of the five-match series on Thursday and Friday.

The Blogger's Real Influence 12 commentsJun 3, 2012 3:25 AM
Blogging on investments is a fascinating exercise in human behavior. One of the first things I learned when I started writing about the energy storage sector in the summer of 2008 is that my words almost never have a direct impact on the market prices of companies I write about. After interacting with readers for almost three years, it's clear that a blog like mine can motivate a small percentage of readers to do their homework and invest in a particular company, but most readers will simply sit on the sidelines, monitor developments and eventually make a decision based on corporate accomplishments.
Those who do the work and make a decision prior to an identifiable corporate accomplishment are bottom feeders of the highest order who are content to put out a low bid and wait for the price to come to them. They'll never chase a price.
Based on my experience over the last three years, I'm convinced that the following graph of the Technology Adoption Lifecycle is equally applicable to the investment markets. The readers who are intrigued by an article or series of articles and really dig down into the meat of a company are the equivalent of innovators and early adopters - the folks to the left of the chasm. The majority of readers, in contrast, are watching and waiting for a business milestone before they commit. For some it will be a technical milestone, for others it will be a revenue milestone and for others still it will be a profit or market milestone.
It's a big universe out there and my sphere of influence is very limited.
I'm always a little fearful at industry conferences when CEO's of companies I write about approach me for the first time. I worry that they'll take issue with something I've written. In most cases, they want me to write about their company more often, not less. Apparently readers quickly forget what I say about a particular company but they remember that I said something, and that keeps the stock on their radar.
In the end, it reminds me of the old George M. Cohan line, "I don't care what you say about me, as long as you say something and as long as you spell my name [and my stock symbol] right." Someday I may achieve guru status where my words move markets. Until then I'll have to be content with sharing my experience and helping others develop an investment style that suits them.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.Back To John Petersen's Instablog HomePage »

Getting quiet in here for some reason =). I think this was a great blog and deserves to be a featured article. It does a good job explaining why blog "followers" and "market movers" are different audiences.
SA's pretty picky when it comes to feature articles. They need to include actionable investment advice. This one doesn't. It's just a topic that I find interesting and wanted to have in writing for commenters and others who want to better understand some of the intricacies.
Interesting thesis, John.
Actually I don't try to define the stock market as closely as Mr. Moore subdivided the technology adoption market. The only distinctions in my mind are the early adopters like you who do their homework and invest in anticipation of an event and those that don't. As soon as you get off into the those that don't category you see all styles. Like most of my observations about market behavior this is just another dot on the canvas that helps tie the other dots together in a coherent picture.
Mr. Petersen,
Thanks for taking the time to share these ideas. There have been some events like the BMW presentation and the railroad battery order, but the big events, i.e. big orders, are still being anticipated. Where would you put investors who invest today in Axion in terms of the chasm?
To the left.
Good article. I suspect I am to the right on your chart, as I have been following your energy storage commentary for several months now, but have not purchased any equities in the space. But I don't follow Jim Cramer at all, and I don't think you're looking for that kind of market moving power.
I love the opportunities in the energy storage sector, but know it's one of those areas that takes a long time to understand. The nice thing about my writing style and content is that I don't generally appeal to the hot money types. Instead I seem to appeal to people who take a long time to make their decisions and know why they own every stock in their portfolio. I hope Axion eventually delivers enough to move you from the watcher class to the prospective investor class.

By Andrea Cohen, Tests.com Contributing Writer
Aspiring professional geologists must be licensed by the state in which they wish to practice, and to become licensed, a standardized exam from the National Association of State Boards of Geology (ASBOG) is required. ASBOG Geology Exams are only administered to individuals who have been determined to meet prerequisites of the state in which they are seeking licensure. Many states consider education and experience, in addition to exam results, when determining licensing eligibility, but it's important to note that states have different eligibility requirements. Candidates should check with their home state's geology board about test requirements before applying for the exam.
About the ASBOG Geology Exam
There are two geology exams offered by ASBOG: the Fundamentals of Geology (FG) exam and the Practice of Geology (PG) exam.
FG includes 130 multiple-choice questions related to the knowledge and skills that are usually acquired during academic study in geology.
PG includes 100 multiple-choice questions and tests skills and knowledge that would be obtained in a practice or job setting, focusing more on the ability to apply the principles of geology learned.
Questions are drawn from geology topics such as:
- Economic Geology and Energy Resources
- Engineering Geology
- Environmental Geochemistry and Hydrogeology
- General Geology, such as Field Geology, Geophysics, Graphical Methods, Imagery and Modeling
- Geomorphology, Quaternary Geology and Surficial Processes
- Mineralogy, Petrography and Petrology
- Paleontology, Sedimentology and Stratigraphy
- Seismology, Structure and Tectonics
Each test has a four-hour time limit. Some state boards may also require additional testing on local geology rules, regulations and statutes that are specific to the individual state.
Scores are reported separately for each of the ASBOG exams. Credit is given for correct answers, but there is no penalty for incorrect answers. A scaled score of 70 is the minimum passing score and 100 is the highest possible score. The decision of what score meets registration or licensing requirements is determined by the individual state boards, not by ASBOG. Scores are provided to the state or authorized testing service of the state within 60 days, and candidates can contact the state board for their scores.
ASBOG Geology Exam Registration
Registration requirements, filing deadlines and fees vary among states. Individual state member boards can provide more information about testing and application forms. It is important to contact the state board to determine submission cut off dates for applications and any other required credentials needed to approve exam eligibility. Fees vary from state to state and range from approximately $350 to $400 for the two ASBOG tests. In addition to testing fees, other licensing fees may be assessed by the state boards.
The ASBOG geology exam is administered twice a year during the spring and fall (usually in March and October). Exact dates vary each year. The state board will be able to provide information about test dates and testing locations. The FG exam usually is given from 8 am to 12 pm, and the PG exam is given that afternoon from 1 pm to 5 pm.
ASBOG Geology Exam Preparation
Those registering for the test are given a copy of the Professional Geologists Candidate Handbook, which describes the format and outline of the exam. There are study guides, flash guides and courses offered by independent companies to help with exam preparation.
Test takers may bring to the exam:
- Silent, portable, non-printing, non-alpha programmable calculator
- Protractor
- Straight edge
- Engineer's scale
- Colored pencils
Test takers may not bring any reference materials or calculators or electronic devices that have email, Internet or message capability, including cell phones or scanning pens.
Candidates will need to have the institution code for their college or university to include on the exam answer sheet, which can be found on the ASBOG website (asbog.org) prior to taking the exam.

Any durability problems with lever locks?
A photographer friend told me he thought lever locks eventually have problems. I suppose he meant slippage. I can see that wing locks look more durable but levers seem to be most prevalent now. Anyone had trouble with the lever locks on the Manfrotto's? I can't see the problem as they look replacable if there is a problem?

Hi, maybe not relevant but I have a Centon tripod which is 10 years old and the plastic around the lever hinges have all broken or cracked. It could be cheap plastic, design or age but I now need a new tripod. I am thinking of a Manfrotto 190 so this thread will be of interest as this model is available with both types of lock.
My 2 cents worth
Always look on the bright side of life de dum de dum........... :) :) :)

I've been using the Manfrotto 190 for about 12 months now and it gets a fairly regular airing (almost daily) from the car boot. The model I own utilises (utilizes in American!) the wing nut locking mechanism and I've experienced no problems so far. It's actually quite a nice tripod, my only caution would be the most inner leg section CAN be bent quite easily. Then again, I'm pretty heavy handed at times. Getting back to your question, I'd go for the wingnuts, particularly if you're ever going to use it when your fingers are numb from the cold! If the lever lock model sits better with you, I believe that individual replacement parts are available for Manfrotto tri/bi-pods

#3. "RE: Any durability problems with lever locks?" | In response to Reply # 0
Bogen/Manfrotto lever locks are adjustable. If they do loosen over time you simply tighten the clamp nuts. I've had plastic lever locks and clamps crack on an old Cullman tripod and I'm sure they will eventually have problems on cheapo tripods as well. However, Manfrotto lever locks are metal, quite reliable, and they're replaceable as well. Although my primary tripod is a Gitzo with barrel locks, the Manfrotto lever locks are by far my favorite for quick setup and takedown.
Barrel locks aren't without their problems. The older Gitzos had a narrow knurling that could be tough to loosen in either cold or warm weather. It's a pain to isolate the leg section you want to loosed without loosening a different one. The tight fit can jam and scratch if the leg has dirt or mud on it and the air trapped inside acts as a piston that resists when you extend or retract the sections.

Is it really that important to your career, romance, or influence over others?
It's a scientific fact that people who don't know you make up their minds about you on a subliminal/prehistoric basis in 30 seconds or less. This evaluation of you by others takes place so quickly and is so entrenched in the human brain that it is not usually conscious thought. Behavioral scientists tell us that we notice the following about another human being and in this order: Skin color, Sex, Age, Bearing (height, body language, etc.), Appearance, Direct Eye Contact, and Speech. The first three we can do nothing about, but we can take advantage of this knowledge to enhance and control how to present the best image of ourselves. Since 80% of what others see is our clothes lets look at some basic faux pas:
1. Never wear a short sleeve shirt with a tie. Short sleeve shirts are perceived as lower class apparel. Fine as part of a uniform or if you aspire to be a fast-food manager, not if you want to project a professional image.
2. Shoes are one of the most evaluated elements of men's wardrobes. Your shoes should be clean, shined, in good repair and appropriate for the occasion. If you are wearing a suit, wear lace-up shoes. Don't wear the same shoe on consecutive days and keep shoetrees in your shoes when you're not wearing them.
3. Trousers should be long enough to cover your socks, and socks should cover your shins even when you cross you legs. Pants are long enough if they have a slight break in the front. Pleats and cuffs are traditional and functional. Pleats let you sit down comfortably and cuffs add weight to the bottoms allowing for proper drape.
4. Never wear both a belt and braces (suspenders). You'll appear insecure.
5. Socks should match your trousers.
6. Belts should match your shoes.
7. Ties should reach your belt line. This is neither arbitrary nor negotiable. Too short of a tie makes you look like a rube.
8. Properly knotted ties have a "dimple" under the knot. Clips and tacks are out of date.
9. Suit and Sports jackets are symbols of authority. However the bottom buttons of men's jackets are not designed to be buttoned, since King Edward VII gained weight, and started a fashion trend. Single Breasted suits can have one, two, three or more buttons. Two and three button jackets are classic, one or more than three get you into the fashion forward arena, which is more suitable for social events than business. With two button jackets only the top button is fastened. With three button jackets, you can close the middle, or middle and top button. Some suits are made so that the lapels roll to the middle button. On those suits you leave the top button unfastened. Some East Coast hipsters fasten only the top of three buttons! Four or more button jackets may be designed to fasten all the buttons, even the bottom. If the bottom button of a four button can be closed without a noticeable pulling of the fabric, it's ok to close or leave it open.
Double Breasted suits are the more formal of the two styles and can have four to six buttons with one or two "to button". They are often identified by a two-number designation such as 4/2, 4/1 or 6/2 (also "four to two"). Translated, the first number gives the total number of front buttons and the second is the number of functioning buttonholes. It doesn't always mean that all the buttons have to be fastened. Often only the middle or upper button is secured on a 4/2 or 6/2, but the Duke of Kent started buttoning only his lower button creating a longer diagonal line across his chest giving the wearer a thinner, more dynamic look.
Why do men never button the bottom button of your suit, sports jacket, vest or Cardigan sweater?
King Edward VII, "Bertie", son of Victoria (1841 – 1910, King 1901 - 1910) was so heavy that he could not get the bottom button fastened on his vest or to be more historically kind, maybe he just forgot. His subjects taking it as a fashion statement followed his lead and today most men's suits, sports jackets or vests are not designed to button the bottom button. The tradition of not buttoning the bottom button may have also come from the early waistcoats, which were very long. It may have been out of necessity of being able to walk that the bottom buttons were left undone.
10. Suit and Sports jackets should fit properly which includes showing 1/4" to 1/2" of "linen" or shirtsleeve at the jacket sleeve.

Coach: Reed to officially sign with Auburn
Published: Wednesday, February 3, 2010 at 11:56 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, February 3, 2010 at 11:56 a.m.
Thibodaux High football coach Dennis Lorio said that four-star recruit Trovon Reed told him at around 11:30 a.m. he planned to fax his letter of intent to Auburn University at noon today.
Reed is considered the unanimous No. 1 recruit in the state. He played quarterback at Thibodaux High, but is projected to play wide receiver in college.
As a senior, Reed rushed for 703 yards and nine touchdowns on 105 carries and passed for 820 yards and six touchdowns, despite playing in just seven games.

It does seem that buying from a local dealer is a much better option, people ordering online are still waiting wile a lot of people ordering from a local dealer got their D800 already.One some of the other forums I was on some people cancelled their online orders after more than a month of waiting, ordered one from a local dealer and got theirs in 2 to 4 weeks.

Good evening, Stephen, I ordered a D800E from our local store on February 14th; it arrived on May 4th while I was out of town for several days. I picked the camera up less than an hour after my return home. You can guess what I was studying the remainder of the day! This area used to have two camera stores; the store where my D200 was purchased went out of business. There is a Best Buy in the area, but I prefer a store dedicated to camera gear. --- Randy ---

I try to support the small locally owned stores but after today, I have to say, Best Buy is high on my list. I assumed no D800 would be available during this trip so I ordered a new 24-70 2.8 with part of the D800 money. Several days ago I dropped by Best Buy and talked with a young salesgirl who did not know about the D800 but offered to find one. She did find 3 in the country but could not get them transferred to her store. Today in the late afternoon she called and said she found one and has it on hold pending my agreement. I was there in 10 minutes with cash in hand and bought it and it is on the way now to my closest store. I will be able to pick it up Sunday at 10amShe spent her spare time combing their inventory database looking for stores that have one and who would be willing to a store to store transfer. I had assumed that she had given up when I left the store a few days ago but she kept at it, searching one store at a time each day until she found one that was put into the inventory database minutes before. She is not even on commission. She seemed to be more excited about finding one then I was.The timing was perfect, I leave the US 36 hours after getting the camera without another opportunity to get one until September when I come back for a couple weeks.StanSt Petersburg Russia

On Feb. 12 I ordered my D800 from B&H. After awhile, it was determined that the earliest I would receive it would be the end of May.Sometime, in the first week of April, I put my name on the waiting list at my "local" dealer (the true local one closed up over 5 years ago). Yesterday, I got a phone call from the dealer asking if I gotten a D800 yet; I said, "no," and he countered with, "Do you want one?" My reply was, "I'll see you in half an hour."Haven't done much else but work with it since! Cancelled the B&H order.One weird thing - the EXIF data for Landscape, Portrait and Standard Picture Controls show correctly, but Vivid and Neutral say Standard. (in PS5) - any clues? Start a new thread?Walterf/8 and be there?...but I'm moving as fast as I can...I'm up to f/4 already!

Hi LauraI am anxious to hear of your results and opinions of the two versions. Are you back from the coast? When I come back in September I will take a few days to shoot up there. My home there was on the top of a steep sided hill with creeks and dense redwood groves below. From my bay windows overlooking the narrow canyons created by the creeks, twice a day, dozens of eagles would float stationary, gliding in place riding the thermal not more than 20 feet from my windows or decks. I would like to return to those spots that were such good photo opportunities.StanSt Petersburg Russia

Yes, in this case it does indeed pay to go local. As Thom Hogan has pointed out, USA laws on fairness of distribution of imported goods to dealers requires that all dealers, large and small, get equal amounts of stock, with not much variation in that formula. I put in a pre-order at B&H on their first day, Feb 7, at 9:30 AM. I never heard an encouraging word from them about expected delivery time, just noncommital email form letters. On Friday morning of that same week I went in to the B&H store to put down some cash on my order, and the rep looked at their list and told me that by then, 3 days later, there were nearly 4,000 people waiting. He was amazed.So I decided to look elsewhere, and tried the Ritz Camera store in Fairfield, CT, which is nearby. I strolled in one day and placed an order. Two weeks later I was notified the camera was shipping, and by the third week I picked it up. Wow!! Two days ago, May 9, I finally cancelled my B&H order -- which was placed 2/7, 9:30 AM - and the guy told me there were still nearly 200 people ahead of me on that list.Incidentally, I was very favorably impressed by Ritz Camera. The folks were competent, efficient, knowledgeable, resourceful and nicest of all, they were friendly. Smiles! Remember that?It does pay to shop locally, in many ways, but for getting a D800 in the first few months especially.

text: Ohio General Assembly Lawmakers Say No Fracking Tax in Budget, But New Task Force Will Study the Long-discussed Idea By Karen Kasler (Ohio Public Radio) • Jun 17, 2015 Karen Kasler/Ohio Public Radio Once again, an increase in the state's tax on oil and natural gas drillers will not be a part of the budget. But Republican lawmakers are talking up what they say is a new step forward for the discussion – a method that's has been used time and again in state government. It looked like it was going to be a big deal. Lawmakers Band Together for Music Tax Credit They Hope Will Be a Hit By Karen Kasler (Ohio Public Radio) • Jun 17, 2015 Karen Kasler/Ohio Public Radio Two state lawmakers are banding together to present something they are suggesting is an encore to the state's film industry tax credit, which has brought $119 million to Ohio in its first two years. Giving a 25 percent tax credit to musicians, producers and others in Ohio is a key way to create a major number of jobs with a minor investment, says Republican Sarah LaTourette of northeast Ohio. And her co-sponsor, Democrat Rep. Kent Smith of Euclid, says the OhioSounds tax credit is similar to ones in Louisiana and New York. Former Ohio House Speaker hired to help charter school company By Mark Urycki/State Impact Ohio • Mar 3, 2015 Andy Chow/Ohio Public Radio The Ohio House is considering a list of reforms aimed at cracking down on bad charter schools and the companies that manage them. One for-profit charter company is getting help from the recently retired Speaker of the Ohio House. Charter school advocates speaking at the University of Colorado over the weekend took aim at several underperforming charters in Ohio. Part of the reason was because of the poor performance of the management company that runs the under-performing online school Electronic Classroom of Tomorrow or ECOT. New anti-abortion bills introduced in Ohio legislature By Jo Ingles • Feb 11, 2015 Jo Ingles/Ohio Public Radio Some new bills at the Statehouse would make abortion illegal at earlier stages of pregnancy than the existing law, which bans abortion after around 24 weeks. And one would also take more money away from Planned Parenthood. Ohio Right to Life is backing six bills that the group says would reduce the number of abortions in Ohio. One of those is legislation that would make abortion illegal at 20 weeks into a pregnancy. Republican Representative Kristina Roegner will sponsor that bill in the Ohio House. Ohio House, Senate hold opening day ceremonies By Andy Chow (Ohio Public Radio) • Jan 6, 2015 Andy Chow/Ohio Public Radio Opening day for the new Ohio General Assembly Monday played out more like a ceremony than a typical House and Senate session. All the members --new and returning—were sworn-in. The House held the official vote for its leadership teams which included new House Speaker Cliff Rosenberger—a Republican from Clarksville in Clinton County. Rosenberger said legislatures in the past have worked on workforce development and creating employment for Ohioans—now he'd like to focus on what he calls "mobility.: 2014 year in review: Kasich vs. Legislature, 2015 preview By Karen Kasler (Ohio Public Radio) • Jan 2, 2015 2015 has all the elements of an exciting year in the state capitol. 2015 is a budget year, and that potentially means battles over priorities. And Gov. John Kasich knows it. "As executive, I've got to tell you, I don't care if I have to break some china. But that's not the best way to do things," Kasich said. "The best way to do things is to get cooperation out of the people you work with." 2014 Year in review: Groups can't agree to raising severance tax By Andy Chow • Dec 31, 2014 Raising the tax on oil and gas drillers has been a major issue in Ohio. But just when it seemed like policymakers were poised to take a big step towards a change, other issues got in the way. Going back-and-forth on the severance tax seems to be a new annual tradition between Gov. John Kasich's administration and the oil and gas industry. Legislators from the House and Senate are also in the mix—falling into both camps. Bills that didn't pass the Ohio General Assembly in 2014 By Jo Ingles & Ohio Public Radio • Dec 24, 2014 It's been a productive year for Ohio lawmakers, who passed bills dealing with redistricting, budget revisions and red light cameras. But many bills that got a lot of attention with the end of the two-year General Assembly didn't pass. Bills that passed the Ohio General Assembly in 2014 By Andy Chow & Ohio Public Radio • Dec 23, 2014 Maybe the legislation needed more time for review or didn't have quite enough support. Whatever the reason—this was the year those bills finally made it past state lawmakers. The most recent example is the reform to Ohio's redistricting process. For the past decade, critics of the process have said it creates maps that are aggressively gerrymandered, which is what happens when lawmakers redraw voting districts to benefit their political party. Redistricting bills propose big changes in line drawing process By Jo Ingles • Nov 18, 2014 The Constitutional Modernization Commission had looked at various options for improving redistricting, a process that's generally blamed for creating legislative and congressional districts that favor one party over another. The panel was very close to bringing a plan forward. But now, two new bills have surfaced. Republican Representative Matt Huffman is the sponsor of these new plans. Pages1 2 next › last »

Skip to comments.NFL Conference Championships LIVE THREAD (Final: Pittsburgh 34-Denver 17; Seattle 34-NC 14)
Posted on 01/22/2006 11:15:55 AM PST by MoodyBlu
Are you ready for some football? My predictions:
Denver 23/Pittsburgh 13, Seattle 24/Carolina 17
Gad! That was a quick quarter...
Anytime you can hold a team to a FG after a turnover in your territory it's a win for the defense.
Let's hurry up & get the season over with....I'm ready for baseball to start....
No penalties at all in the Q.
Odd play selection the last two calls. I guess Cowher wants to establish the running game. Personally, I think if you're having success, you keep doing that until the other side adjusts. Probably explains why Cowher's a millionaire and I'm posting on a message board.
What time is the game? Seems the timing this weekend is off.
And that was even with a replay challenge.
one player on the second play of the game beat your bengals
True and a decent amount of running.
Thats because Rothlisberger (sp?) missed only one pass, so the clock always ran.
You have to stay balanced for both to be effective.
Re: my Steelers 28 - Broncs 27 prediction...
Now Steelers 9 - Broncs 0
Go for 2!!!!!!!
Oh, my, TD Steelers! 10-point lead already!
I think not.
AFC game on right now, Steeler up 9-0 and about to kick the EP. NFC about 4 Mountain time.
Ben is on fire ... it don't look good for the ponies
Guess Cowher got my note: Pass until they adjust.
They've handled the blitz better than the Pats did last week. That's what happens when you have a good offensive line.
Since the Pats are out, I might as well root for this years Manning Killer ;)
Plus Jerome deserves a ring
No it does not.
Come on, the baseball season seems endless.
This was the thread in chat, we moved it to news.
It wouldn't surpise me at all if they traded leads a couple of times today (although I hope they don't. :)
Re: "I don't like da steelers - they beat my Bengals! Go Denver!!!"
I'd rather the team that beat me win the Superbowl...
BTW when Palmer went down, that was it even when your #2 did okay...
Speaking of which, hear anything about Matt Light?
I agree although I like the Panthers as well.
Nothing new.
And a darned fine move it was.
Chump Bailey gets beat again. That kid is a legend in his own mind, more so than Louis Wright or Dennis Smith. Larry Coyer better make some adjustments.
I figured the Steelers were gonna blow the doors off of Denver. The few Denver games I saw this year, they seemed sort of lackluster. But the Steelers were showing the form they had in the 70's and early 80's when they were a force to be reckoned with!
It's still early but after last week you can bet that the Steelers won't let up until the last seconds run off the clock.
It looked quite effortless -- does NOT bode well for DEN.
Steelers KO out of bounds, big opportunity for the Broncs.
Big possession for Denver.
I was amazed with all their mistakes that they were still in the game until late.
Yep, the game was over when Palmer was hurt. I've never liked the steelers although Bettis seems like one of the good guys. I hope he does well if this is his last game.
What time is the game? Seems the timing this weekend is off.
3:30 Pacific Time
Re: "Probably explains why Cowher's a millionaire and I'm posting on a message board."
Hey! That's my excuse...
3rd and 10 now for DEN...if they have to punt and the Stillers score again...
Yup. They can't let the Steelers expand their lead.
What a tackle!! I think he's short!

Webmin also lets you modify the start and stop scripts to meet your requirements. Additionally, the menu gives you access to various logfiles and a list of active processes. Finally, the System module gives you an overview of the mounted filesystems, as well as a nicely sorted list of both local and network filesystems.
Webmin has the tools you'll need to convert your computer into a firewall. The hard-hitting duo of Netfilter/iptables has long been the packet filter of choice on Linux. But because of its convoluted syntax, configuring this team at the command line is something best left to experts. Selecting Networking | Linux Firewall in Webmin takes you to an easy-to-use interface with rule sets nicely organized in tables to help you create, manage, and delete rules without needing a degree in rocket science (Figure 1).
The Networking item also takes you to the basic network settings. If you are experiencing network problems, bandwidth measurement is a useful troubleshooting tool. This service takes some time to return meaningful data, and it generates a fair amount of CPU load, especially on less powerful servers.
The Hardware item has everything you need to manage your system's mass storage media. In addition to the options for configuring RAID arrays, mirror volumes, or partitions, you will also find a Logical Volume Management option, along with a front end to help you modify the parameters of individual disks. To launch the tool, select Hardware | Partitions on Local Disks. Webmin then shows you the usage statistics for the current volume as a red bar. To create a new partition or modify the default parameters, click Edit IDE parameters. Under the hood, Webmin calls the Hdparm program. But beware: Changes to settings such as the data transfer mode can cause data loss if the hardware does not support the selected mode. Before you change any of the IDE parameters, make sure you understand the characteristics of your hard disk.

FCA Bank is a finance company that offers customized financial solutions as well as insurance services to meet the various needs of Fiat's large customer base.
The services provided by the Autonomy Programme have been designed to make driving and travelling more comfortable and safer in any condition.
An innovative, revolutionary system which analyses the consumption and emissions of cars in real time, on the basis of driving style, and provides advice for reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
The Blue&Me™ system lets you communicate and keep yourself entertained in your car in complete safety and complete compliance with legal requirements, because you can use it without ever taking your hands off the wheel.
Where the innovation is born.
Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Lancia, Abarth and Jeep will be starring in the event from June 11 to 14. In addition to the motor show in Italy's first public park, an extraordinary selection of classic cars will be parading to the gardens of the Reggia di Venaria on Sunday.
On the occasion of the World Environment Day, FCA - the Official Global Partner of Expo Milano 2015 - is organising a round table on the topic of "The Environment: driving change and innovation". Speakers include experts from the environment and energy world and high-ranking academics. At this event, FCA is set to present its tablet and smartphone application dedicated to sustainability, the first in its kind for the automotive sector. It contains a fun game that measures the owner's responsible use of our planet's resources.
Tuesday, April 15, 2014
Presented at the Paris Motor Show in 2008, eco:DriveTM (the innovative system that gives drivers a better perception of how their driving style influences consumption and the emission of pollutants) has grown through the years and met with considerable success, involving many drivers who want to improve their eco-friendly driving credentials. eco:DriveTM was immediately made available on Fiat range models equipped with Blue&MeTM or UconnectTM infotainment systems, on petrol, diesel and methane engine versions, for individuals and fleet managers.
As you drive, eco:DriveTM collects all information on how you handle the vehicle and its efficiency. The data is processed and the driver can analyse the consumption and emissions on each of their journeys as well as receive advice.
From 2012, the eco:DriveTM Live version has been available - on the 500L, 500L Trekking and 500L living models - allowing users to monitor their driving style in real time on the radio display.
The data gathered from regular users of eco:DriveTM highlight the fact that consumption can be reduced by up to 16 per cent by following its advice, with clear benefits in terms of polluting emissions. More than 95 thousand customers (of which more than 11 thousand in 2013 alone) have used eco:DriveTM, with a reduction of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere of 5,800 tonnes per year.
But the innovation of eco:DriveTM doesn't stop with these figures, significant though they may be: taking advantage of all its potential as well as that of modern technology, today sees the launch of "eco:DriveTM Social", the international community of regular users of the application who want to share their results with others. With eco:DriveTM Social, you can find friends all over the world, connect with them and share your eco-friendly performance on Facebook or Twitter. All you need to do is download the app from www.fiat.com/ecodrive, connect using your Facebook or Twitter account, contact your friends, invite new ones and get followers or follow new users, sharing your activity, results and improvements with the whole community created in this way.
After logging in, you'll be able to find a series of virtual badges that certify your "good deeds" at the wheel, demonstrate your level of user interaction and record your "social ranking". This way, users can increase their popularity both by improving their eco-performance and by sharing it on social networking sites and involving new friends.

For anyone who is bidding on a product on an auction site, research the merchandise's real price and ready yourself the amount in which you're prepared to pay. After you determine your maximum, make sure to adhere to it and never bid above it. Your private and credit card info are truly essential so don't provide its details unless you are buying a product.

If you are purchasing an item that has a shelf life of about 10 years such as batteries, it wouldn't hurt to purchase these in big amounts, especially if you change batteries on a monthly basis. When you make an international purchase online, getting support if some things go wrong can be hard. If perhaps you are having difficulty resolving an issue against a dealer, you could try contacting the appropriate consumer affairs company in the country where the merchant website is located. If you do not truly feel protected in typing in your credit card details when buying at an unfamiliar website, you can go for a 3rd party payments service like PayPal when paying your online purchases. This kind of payment method can prevent the dealer from seeing any information from you. If your purchased merchandise does not get delivered, contact the merchant directly and document the issue in writing. Make sure to have the specifics of your purchase available so its possible to insist for your money back. The best thing about running an online shop is that all you need is a single internet site to provide access to different clients coming from different locations. With physical shops, however, you should own a multitude of shops so you could serve the consumers coming from several locations. Be skeptic each time there are some fantastic discounts you find at social network websites. The chances are that you might wind up at a scammer's website particularly if you went to their shortened urls, regardless if they're showcased in Twitter and Facebook.
When it comes to making use of your credit card to pay for your online shopping purchases, it is encouraged that you print out receipts or put e-mail receipts within a different directory to help you check your credit card statements alongside your receipts. Other than applying for a loan, a legitimate online site will not request your Social Security number. A few sellers accept CODs as payment, however the number is small. It is not advisable to pre-pay an order with a check or money order because of the danger of fraud. When purchasing something online, it's always recommended to see if the product you need is currently on stock. If it is not but you have already had been able to pay it off, you will have to simply wait a bit longer for your purchases to reach you. If an online dealer does not seem to have a complaint, this doesn't mean they are trustworthy witout a doubt. Dishonest managers open and close stores very fast which explains why you'll not find out any sort of existing complaint. Perhaps the most common ways a scammer can focus on you is by dumping spam in your email. One of the simplest ways for you to avoid being scammed by these spammers is simply by not buying any item from an e-mail you did not request. Bidding does not conclude within the first 5 to 10 bids. Whenever possible, sustain your bid until the bidding for the item is nearing its closing stages.

Somers' season at Planet Plutocrat
Published 12/05/2013 | 05:00
I RARELY meet bank directors these days. David Duffy, the 10- grand-a-week boss at AIB refuses to return my calls. I spot distant Bank of Ireland directors, like Richie Boucher, high on the platform at their AGMs.
I used to bump into Anglo chairman Alan Dukes in Leinster House – but he has not been so visible since he lost his sinecure.
None of them treat me to their lavish corporate hospitality or invite me to their daughters' weddings. The absence of their company is not a yawning gap in my life, but it would be interesting to meet them from time to time. Indeed, in a rare moment of self-doubt recently I was beginning to wonder: perhaps the guys from Planet Plutocrat are really normal, misunderstood humans?
Thankfully, such a charitable thought was fleeting. I have not gone soft. Ever since I wrote The Bankers, I seem to have been off their guest list. So it was a bit of a rarity to be waiting in RTE's hospitality corridor last week and to find myself seated, alone, in close proximity to the deputy chairman of AIB.
Did you know that AIB had a deputy chairman? God knows why, but it still has. Probably because the AIB board has always needed a lucrative little number to give to an insider. For some reason this unnecessary post was spared from the axe wielded at AIB.
Today the €150,000-a-year part-time job is held by Michael Somers, former boss at the NTMA.
Somers is one of life's charmers. When I sat down beside him, I gulped gauchely but he never batted an eyelid. I have written some harsh words about his outfit in at least two books and in numerous articles.
The man who has so often been worshipped by a fawning media, was waiting to record for George Lee while I was due for Pat Kenny's programme. Far from being sour or resentful, Michael was his usual, superbly-polished self.
We stuck to safe subjects, like President Michael D plunging the dagger into the rotten heart of Europe, the deeds of the late Brian Lenihan, while skilfully skirting around Somers' role on the board of AIB.
I was itching for George to take him away. The man's amiability was getting right up my nose. Somers was so affable that I almost regretted some of the more brutal things I had written about him, AIB and his over-rated state agency. His generosity of spirit made me feel awkward.
Happily, the guilt trip lasted just 24 hours. Last Saturday morning I heard Michael's interview with George Lee while driving to the West of Ireland.
It was a bumpy journey. In the intervening 24 hours I had recalled that Somers was the highest-paid public service pensioner in Ireland's history, that he received a lump sum of €842,00 on his retirement and is drawing €265,000 a year as a state pension. A little digging revealed that the 71-year-old also enjoys big bucks from his directorships of Hewlett Packard, Willis Insurance Group Holdings and Fexco Holdings.
Two years ago he succeeded fallen Bank of Ireland chief Brian Goggin as President of the Ireland-US Council. Somers' income is in the stratosphere. His takings from the State alone amount to over €8,000 a week.
Lee introduced him to listeners with the customary media deference afforded to the man often idolised as a financial magician. Insisting that Michael was one of Ireland's "most respected and straight-talking public servants", Lee went on to reveal that he had even been awarded the Legion d'honneur, apparently for setting up the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development – an institution that Irish governments have found useful to fix up retired politicians finding themselves at a loose end.
For a moment it sounded as though George, one of the giantkillers of financial journalism, had swallowed the Somers potion; the dialogue seemed set to be another doddle for the old wizard.
I should never have doubted George. After the polite opening he headed straight for Somers' jugular. He asked the question on the minds of every AIB mortgage borrower in the country. Was Somers' bank going to pass on the 0.25 per cent European Central Bank cut to its variable rate customers?
Nobody waffles like Michael. Except possibly Enda Kenny on a really good day.
"I can't," replied the deputy chairman of the board, "speak for the board"! And then: "I don't see it happening."
Somers was answering as some sort of detached onlooker. His view – from a distance – was that AIB would probably not pass on the benefits to its customers – but how would he know, let alone have any influence on it? As Somers agonised, the entire nation knew that hell would freeze over first.
George pressed the deputy chairman, mentioning his public interest role. Somers promptly further distanced himself from his own bank's decision. "I am never comfortable not passing on interest rates . . . I find the whole thing perplexing."
Not half as perplexing as the citizens listening must have found his replies. Here was the Number Two at AIB dissociating himself from this state-owned bank's decision not to pass on the fall in interest rates to citizens in mortgage difficulties.
Why on earth is Michael – an influential director of AIB – giving interviews about the bank if he does not speak for the board, offers lofty, detached opinions on the bank's intentions and then feels "uncomfortable" and "perplexed" about its activities?
Even more peculiar was Michael's admission that the banks were "screwing" their customers with increased charges.
It was getting bizarre. How does a director, who is "uncomfortable" with his bank's failure to pass on the rate cut and believes that the bank is "screwing" its customers, stay on the board?
If those are Somers' views he should resign. AIB's antics, in "screwing" its customers, pay his vast deputy chairman's fee. Not surprisingly, high fees featured later in the interview. Somers was outed. Lee led him into tricky territory when he asked the man who earned a million euro in his last year at the NTMA, for his views on bankers' pay. This time Somers could not unhook himself from the established bankers' mantra.
He mumbled about Irish people being "mobile", how banking was a global business, that we would lose our brightest brains abroad unless we paid market rates.
At the NTMA he had always believed in "motivating" people. He modestly omitted to mention that the most "motivated" was always himself. In his last year he received a bonus of €403,000.
To back up the case for higher pay at AIB he instanced the vacant post of chief financial officer, contending that it was unfilled because the pay was so low. He persisted with the dubious thesis that if these geniuses were not paid mega-salaries they would walk.
Let them. No global competitors have yet publicly emerged as contenders for the hand of Richie Boucher (€843,000) or David Duffy (€500,000). According to Somers' logic, these guys – who accepted such low salaries – are probably below par. Perhaps he is right.
Michael Somers has without difficulty made the transition from being a vastly overpaid public servant to being an equally overpaid banker. No one can blame him for clinging onto the AIB gig. If he gave it up, the poor sod would be forced to live on six grand a week.
Even the faces are the same.

The past
The FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup holds special significance for New Zealand, with the Oceania nation featuring in all five editions of the tournament. Notably, New Zealand successfully played host to the first event in 2008 helping to provide a perfect springboard for future growth of the-then fledgling tournament. While the Young Football Ferns were eliminated at the group stage, New Zealand did claim their maiden victory in a FIFA women's competition with a 3-1 win against Colombia. Trinidad & Tobago 2010 was, however, not as kind to the Kiwis who lost all three group games in a tough pool. History repeated itself two years later in Azerbaijan, with hard-fought group-stage losses against Mexico, Japan and Brazil. New Zealand drew with Paraguay at Costa Rica 2014, but suffered 3-0 defeats against Japan and Spain, both of whom ultimately featured in the final.
The present
The Young Football Ferns are well prepared for the world stage having played together as a development side during New Zealand's most recent national league season. They performed with distinction against older opponents collecting several impressive results. New Zealand then participated in the Oceania qualifying campaign winning all five matches in a canter, tallying up 55 goals without reply.
The future
New Zealand's growth across all spectres of the game on the global stage in the past few years is undeniable. The challenge for this generation is to be the first New Zealand women's U-17 team to reach the knockout stage at World Cup level. Young coach Gareth Turnbull will be keen to make a mark in his first tilt at global level, having impressed by winning a couple of New Zealand national league titles.

Chris Martenson said on May 23 to "Buy Gold Today".
Buy Gold Today (May 23, 2012) (Subscription required)
"I don't often make market calls or indicate when to buy or sell, but...if you have been waiting to buy gold, or have a dollar-cost averaging strategy in play, today served up a very compelling buy signal for gold."http://www.peakprosperity.com/martensoninsider/buy-gold-today
Executive summary: Father of three young children; author; obsessive financial observer; trained as a scientist; experienced in business; has made profound changes in his lifestyle because of what he sees coming.
I think it's important that you understand who I am, how I have arrived at my conclusions and opinions, and why I've dedicated my life to communicating them to you.
I really loved Crash Course. Much of it was info I kinda knew but never so well pieced together. I have looked into the veracity of it and it seems to be okay, although optimists will quibble all day about unconventional oil reserves and the like.
However, looking up Chris Martenson, I do find two conflicting things. His wikipedia page describes him thusly:
Today on Financial Sense, Jim Puplava interviewed Chris who was his usual outstanding self.
You know that Chris' new book "The Crash Course: The UnsustainableFuture Of Our Economy, Energy, And Environment" is coming out laterin March 2011.
November 12th, 2010 – In this edition of Press TV's 'On the Edge with Max Keiser', Max has an interview with Chris Martenson of PeakProsperity.com.
I was surprised to see Chris in the Yahoo finance section. Here is the link http://finance.yahoo.com/retirement/article/110001/stocks-and-bonds-are-now-hazardous-to-your-wealth?mod=retire-planning. Anyhow, I hope people pay attention to what lies ahead.
I was watching Chris Martenson's presentation at Marlboro Graduate School and at about the 11 minute mark he goes into US Debt to GDP. From the graph it looks like we have about 3x as much debt as GDP. However, I cannot verify these numbers and have actually found contradictory numbers. National debt is approaching 13 trillion from what I could find, but GDP seems to be about the same (source was BEA). I don't doubt Chris's numbers, but I'm trying to figure how to back into that graph. Any sugg
We have read this here, but Jim's intro I liked, a lot!
Also check out the Marks to buy dollars chart.
First off I really want to say that this thread is not intended whatsoever to talk about Michael Ruppert or the movie Collapse.
Now that that was out of the way I just want to give some context as to how this got started. I've been following the Collapse Facebook page as it has been a wealth of information. There are over 5000 fans now and many post great links and commentary on economic, environmental and political news.
At one point someone mentioned The Crash Course Then this fella, Joshua, posted the following

The LFR loot system is fine as is, and this is from a person who went a whole week without winning an item in LFR, off of Nalak or Oondasta, exhausting 3 coins and clearing up to Dark Animus in normal ToT (I only won the tier chest (the 522 one)).

Eeuh no thnx, its really not fun to always get an item.
What i would like to see are loot tokens, and a vendor to spend them. It makes more sense imo, I mean, you do loot the boss after you killed it, you can take a bit of his gear or what ever, why would a warrior type boss ever drop healing stuff? Therefor loot tokens would make much more sense. You got to kill a boss and he dropt somthing, when you give it to the vendor he'll be like :" Oh yea good thing you killed him/it/her it was really pissing me off, here chose an item."
Ofcourse every boss has it own tokes and you will be able to chose annything that the boss is supposed to drop (exept for mounts/pets ofcourse)
If you'd tell a mouse that it can jump off the wheel and go straight to the cheese, it wouldn't need you to tell him twice. However, we are not mice. We like to run on the wheel continuously, and then come to these forums and make posts such as this: http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/...dissapointment
This behavior can only be found in humans.
Ends with everyone forgetting Grom was a badguy and not even bringing up his crimes as he cheers with the alliance and horde forces that we are all finally free. Yrell tells Khadgar if he ever needs help to come talk to them, after which he turns into a raven in a hommage to Medivh and flies off, and then she quotes her love's famous "We are all one in the light." line while standing next to the guy who ordered his death and murdered her sister. Cue ewok singing and dancing-Anonymous
Sorry for everyone who didn't read the entire set of posts that I confused with my BS comment. A previous poster had said you couldn't get weapons from valor, was directed more at that.
Only way in LFR i can see loot being better is IF you win somthing you get a box up of the things you can use for that spec. (tokens wont count) and you can choose what you want from it. Its annoying to get same loot every week.
Why aren't people just happy with being able to get practically free loot already?
You won't find an expanded version of my avatar here.
RNG works as RNG should - and anyone who does not want their gold who is on my server could send it to me, I can always find a use for it.
So basically under this system, people run LFR maybe 3 times max and then are done with it for the rest of the patch and cry for more content.
The current system has issues that could be addressed, but I find it to be alright. You'll obviously gear up faster in normals and heroics, so I think slowing down LFR gear progression is a good thing, with the current loot system. Those only doing normals, heroics or both, deserve a faster chance of obtaining gear quicker, anyhow.
Last edited by Ceece; 2013-05-04 at 01:26 PM.
People are so entitled now. Why should you get gear at all? You are coming into LFR at minimum ilvl, with no prior knowledge of the fights and killing bosses as you afk and watch tv. Letting 8-10 good players who work hard carry you through it. If they are unable to carry you, the system now buffs them for failing until they can hold your weight.
What they should do is remove the loot drops from LFR period, and make it what it should have been all along. A way for casual players to see the content without having to commit a few hours a night to a raid group. But then, who would do LFR at all? Nobody, because people don't really care about the content. People care about the shiny stuff. IMO if that is your motivation, it should cost more effort than afk spamming '1' for 30 minutes.
Why you think the Net was born? Porn! Porn! Porn!
The system is fine and doesn't need to be fixed at this time.
