LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Every week, NFL beat reporters talk to the star player of the home team's opposition on a conference call. A dozen people crowd around a speakerphone to ask tough questions and receive awkward answers.
In the world of the conference call, every player is great and it's always going to be a tough game.
It's a condensed conversation that is like almost every other one in an NFL week in which only a handful of players say interesting things and most coaches treat mundane details like diplomatic cables.
But every so often, someone asks Philadelphia Eagles star running back LeSean McCoy, the leading rusher in the NFL, what the Chicago Bears defense looks like it in its current state.
OK, that someone was me.
"Lance Briggs is probably one of the best linebackers that I've faced, and I'm actually saying that in an honest way," McCoy said. "He's one of the best. Him actually being out there and been banged up and having rookie guys have to step in and have to play at a role like that, it's tough for them.
"Seeing things like that and missed tackles and guys out of line, out of place, that kind of makes a running back happy. And seeing teams gash 'em, automatically that light bulb lights up in your head like, 'Wow, we can get the running game going.'"
The guy they call Shady was just being honest.
With a fast-paced attack led by new Eagles coach Chip Kelly and all-around back McCoy, the Eagles have the best rushing attack in football. McCoy averages 5 yards a carry and has 1,343 rushing yards and seven touchdowns to go along with 45 catches for 507 yards. Almost of all of those receiving yards come after the catch, so he's making guys miss in space.
Quarterback Nick Foles will be there "for the next thousand years," Kelly said recently. Imagine how many plays they can run in the Kellyenium.
It's a tough offense to stop when you have a good defense, because it takes discipline and experience -- things the current Bears defense lacks.
"It's hard enough just figuring out who has the ball, and once the defense realizes who has it, by then the [offensive linemen] are up on them and I'm in the secondary," McCoy said. "To get the playmakers the ball and have the guys up front blocking so well, automatically that makes it tough on them and creates confidence."
Meanwhile, the injury-ravaged Bears have the worst run defense in the league. They recovered eight fumbles in the first four games and haven't recovered one since.
The originator of the Peanut Punch, Charles Tillman, is out for the season and perhaps is done as a Bear.
Yes, the Lovie Smith defense is all but dead. Next year we'll see wholesale changes. Two years from now you couldn't guarantee any one player being in a Bears uniform.
But there's time for Briggs to give that group a proper burial before we sprinkle its ashes across Soldier Field.
Briggs, the epitome of the Bears defensive success this past decade, should return this week after missing two months. He was having a very good season before he fractured his shoulder in the Washington Redskins game on Oct. 20, the same game Tillman was injured.
Even if he's rusty and a bit of out of shape, he's still Lance Briggs. When he has to sub out, the Bears should just put a 55 jersey on a scarecrow. At least it would have proper "gap discipline."
While the season has been a slog thanks to injuries and a coaching change, to their credit, the Bears cleaned up their mess last week, resurrecting a sliver of pride from the era when the defense ruled the locker room and was among the most respected in the NFL.
They allowed just 98 yards rushing to the Cleveland Browns. Take that, Chris Ogbonnaya and Edwin Baker.
"That was the goal for last week," defensive tackle Jeremiah Ratliff said. "Well, I don't want to say it was a goal. But now it's a standard. Now we know we can do it."
Given that in the team's previous seven games, the Bears allowed 1,429 rushing yards (between 145 and 258 a game), 100 is a nice, round number to shoot for.
Ratliff, who was waived by the Dallas Cowboys and signed in early November, has been a welcome addition since being activated three weeks ago. With Henry Melton and Nate Collins out for the season, the Bears were stuck mixing in veteran Corey Wootton and a dinged-up Stephen Paea with reclamation projects and Shea McClellin.
Ratliff looked stout last week in his second start. Uneven line play has logically weakened the entire defense, which has been without Briggs since the Washington game, a week after middle linebacker D.J. Williams was knocked out for the season.
"What I love about this group is everybody is honest," he said. "Every man on this defense is honest and accountable."
More important, the defensive unit just needs to be productive. While it couldn't get a fumble last week, Zack Bowman's two interceptions, one of which he returned for a touchdown, were viewed as a welcome sign that maybe the Bears are ready to finish on the right note.
"That's what we need to get back to," Wootton said. "I thought it was a step in a positive direction. It couldn't be better timing. Better late than never."
With two weeks left and two good offenses left (assuming Aaron Rodgers plays in Week 17), there's no better way for the Lovie Smith defense to go out than to make a stand now.
McCoy wouldn't give us a number goal for this week, but Ratliff is thinking big. Or, I guess, small.
"You hear all week about guys talking about keeping them under 100," Ratliff said. "When you're eating lunch, guys will sit down and when they'll say, 'Hey, we're keeping them under 100.' You can see everyone is thinking about it, and if you having enough guys seeing it and believing it, it's going to happen."

Hi friends,
As i am very new to PCB designing using CADENCE Allegro, i would like to know how to design foot print for SMD Transistor which is shown here. As per my knowledge, i have created foot print for micro controlles(QFP) whose pin numbers are same in four faces. But, here, we have only one pin in one direction and two pins in opposite direction.
Please guide me how to design foot print for this.
I would suggest starting off with pulling the datasheet and creating the footprint accordingly.
It should tell you how to assign the pin number pad size etc.
Hello, that appears to be a SOT-23 Package, so you could create it from scratch but if you are looking for an easier method then have a look in the allegro pcb footprint library for the following symbol "SOT23.DRA" Typically the symbol library is located under your install folder
Load up the symbol in the editor and have a look. Turn on all the color layers so you can see all the detail of the symbol. If you hover your mouse over part of the symbol it will tell you what the object is and what class it is a part of. Make sure you turn on all objects such as lines pins shapes etc in the find filter dialog box as a first step.
Make some notes of the symbol structure or draw a sketch of it's layer structure. In general your silkscreen top layer and place bound top layer are contained in the "Package Geometry", Your Padstacks would be under "Stack up" Reference Dez would be under "Components"
Be aware that some symbols in the symbol library do not have a silkscreen top layer so be mindfull of that. The sot23.dra symbol would be an example of that : )
Thanks Scott
Hello - I would also like to make you aware of an excellent, free resource that is available through www.pcblibraries.com. This website provides a wealth of information regarding pcb libraries, footprint creation, etc. It has the additional benefit of being endorsed by the IPC so the advice and knowledge available here is advice and knowledge that is being used throughout the EDA industry. Hope you find it helpful.
In reply to ScottCad:
Thanks ScottCad. Now i could design footprint for this component. Well, I get struck while i come to design footprint for Crystal Oscillator where i have to merge one SMD pad with a via. This pad is connected to ground plane to take out the heat produced by the crystal oscillator. Is it possible to create this kind of pad using cadence allegro 15.2? Please give me some idea about this.
Also, in some circuits, i found solder lead is poured as like copper pour which we often use to short ground plane. Could you please explain me how to do that?
In reply to Gopintj1:
What you could do is create your footprint like this. Instead of using a pin with a padstack for the ground use a "Shape" instead on the etch top layer and another oversize shape for the solder mask for that shape.
When you place the footprint "Symbol" on your board you can asign a net to the shape for example ground. Then place vias on the shape to tie it into ground if it is a multi layer or 2 layer board.
Now when you create a symbol in this way that shape will not have any net unlike pins so you would have to remember to asign a net to it during your layout.
To look at it another way. Assume your compont has 4 leads and a large pad on the back of the part that is to be soldered to the board. Create the 4 leads with traditional pins and padstacks, Create the exposed pad that gets soldered to the board as a shape.
Hope that helps
Thanks Scott.

Pacquiao isnt overrated, maybe by the P4P standard. However I think he loses to smarter boxers, just like Khan.

Because in this section 9 out of 10 people are idiots who aren't real fans of the sport. What happened last night was something a large part of the idiots here were waiting for since the mid 2000s. They don't care about boxing, to them it's about internet-flaming. Now if something like this finally happens to Mayweather it will all come full circle and after both of these boxing greats are gone, I think so will most of the idiots of this section.

All the floyd and pac fanatics have pretty much ruined this forum for the most part. This place will be better when they both retire, and we don't have people posting nonsense crap. This forum will look the same when this happens to Floyd (assuming he continues to fight). The neutrals or opposing fans, will have a field day with it. Just the way it is.

Why were those men running, not walking, with buckets of hatchery-bred trout before dumping them into Brandywine Creek?
"There's not much water in the buckets," Jim Wolownik, 75, of Valley Township, Chester County, explained.
The trout "run out of oxygen. If you don't get them into the stream fast, they'll die."
Wolownik was part of a brigade of volunteers - their 11 cars and trucks forming a convoy over winding country roads - that by 1 p.m. Tuesday had reached Hatfield House in Hibernia County Park after an hour's serpentine journey off Route 340 near Coatesville.
But what had drawn him there, to within sight of the creek?

A 13-year-old student from Colegio de San Juan de Letran in Manila got a perfect score in the 2015 Australian Mathematics Competition (AMC), joining 97 other Filipino students who were awarded in the contest.
Andres Rico Gonzales, Grade 8 student, emerged as one of only 42 students worldwide who got perfect scores among the 300,000 participants from 40 countries who joined the contest this year.
The AMC was administered simultaneously in each participating country.
Executive Director Mike Clapper of the Australian Mathematics Trust (AMT), which organizes the AMC, flew to Manila from Australia for the awarding ceremony of the Filipino winners held on Oct. 23 at the Manila Grand Opera Hotel in Sta. Cruz, Manila.
Clapper awarded the winners together with Andrew Hodges, first secretary of the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade; Dr. Simon Chua, president of the Mathematics Trainers Guild-Philippines (MTG); Ruby Cristobal, head of the S&T Manpower Education Research and Promotion Division of the Department of Science and Technology-Science Education Institute (DOST-SEI); and Dr. Isidro Aguilar, MTG business manager.
Gonzales received the AMC medal and the Peter O'Halloran Certificate of Excellence for his feat.
"Filipino students do very well (in the competition)," said Clapper.
Other AMC medalists are Kyle Patrick Dulay of the Philippine Science High School-Main, Vince Jan Torres of Sta. Rosa Science and Technology High School and Farrell Eldrian Wu of MGC New Life Christian Academy.
Filipino students who won Prize Awards are Nicholas Marcus Lua, Kei Hang Derek Chan, and Alexandra Gochian, all of Saint Jude Catholic School; Raphael Dylan Dalida, St. Mary's Academy-Pasay; Erin Christen Noceda, Special Education Center for the Gifted-Subic Bay; Filbert Ephraim Wu, MGC New Life Christian Academy; Annika Angela Mei Tamayo, Ateneo De Iloilo-SMCS; Frederick Ivan Tan, Xavier School; Bryce Ainsley Sanchez, Grace Christian College; Sean Ty, Zamboanga Chong Hua High School; and Clyde Wesley Ang, Chiang Kai Shek College.
"The 2015 AMC results showed that Filipino students continue to demonstrate remarkable competencies in the field of mathematics," said Dr. Chua.
In her message, Dr. Josette Biyo, DOST-SEI director, said, "Our performances in the AMC and other mathematics and science competitions have been very promising to say the least. It has become a trend that our Philippine contingents constantly bring home medals and honorable distinctions that seems to challenge our students even more to perform better in other competitions."
A big congratulations to all the students who won a prize this year in the Australian Mathematics Competition," Hodges told the awardees.

Un-American Plan
Though Barbi Benton, Vidal Sassoon and the usual glitzy crowd bunked in at $450-a-day condos at the Aspen (Colo.) Club over Easter vacation, the Ethel Kennedy clan made other plans. According to owner Dick Butera, Ethel backed out on an $8,100 18-day reservation just before the holiday began, claiming, "I just can't afford Aspen." Already on the outs with Aspen's service folks for delaying payments on past holiday gatherings there, Ethel added Butera to her list of detractors by leaving him in the lurch. Like all guests, she had promised to pay in advance, then canceled without paying, telling the owner, "I just can't do anything about it." Ethel, who won't comment on the incident, finally did solve her own financial problems. The Kennedys ended up in Aspen after all, at a friend's home—for free.
Alice in Watergateland
For the better part of the past decade, Arlo Guthrie has refused to sing his 1967 hit Alice's Restaurant, claiming that he'd forgotten the lyrics. This spring, however, as resistance continued over draft registration, Guthrie, 35, dusted off the antidraft song and worked out a new introductory spiel for his current concert tour. Arlo's been telling audiences that Jimmy Carter's family found a White House copy of the disc, evidently left behind by the Nixons. "Had it been opened?" Guthrie asked Chip Carter, who passed along the information. "Yep," Chip nodded, which led Arlo to the following conclusion: His 18-minute 20-second song must be the missing link in the famous Watergate tapes. "I mean," Arlo asks audiences, "how many things just happen to be about 18 minutes long?"
Oral Fixation
"Believe it or not, I used to be painfully shy, a conversational weakling, uncomfortable in new situations and with new people. Although I yearned to be warm and sociable, I often came across as cold and introverted." So says famed talker Barbara Walters in an updated introduction to the new edition of her 1970 treatise, How to talk with practically anybody about practically anything. Though the book is essentially unrevised, Walters has made a few changes, including the addition of a comment she heard her 14-year-old daughter, Jacqueline, make: "My mummy can't drive a car, you know. My mummy can't fix a fuse. My mummy burns the meat loaf. Come to think of it, my mummy really can't do anything but talk!"
Rocking the Palace
Michael Fagan, 32, the unemployed laborer who slipped into Buckingham Palace last July for a bedside visit with the Queen, has found another way to pay homage to Her Majesty. Released from his three-month stay at a mental hospital, he leads a rock group called the Ballock Brothers that premiered at one of London's top punk clubs, the Bat Cave, a few weeks back. With a bit less than due respect, Fagan sang a version of God Save the Queen that had been banned from the radio when the Sex Pistols wrote the revised lyrics six years ago. Fagan says he turned the song into a tribute, specifically dropping a line that called the Queen a moron. Though he was booed off the stage by the opening-night crowd, the Queen's loyal subject found a way to cut his first record anyway. "I would have been a star even if I hadn't sat on the Queen's bed," said Michael. Still, he doesn't mind exploiting the past: "I was ill when I broke in, and I have suffered for it. Now it's nice to make a few bob."
The other day Meryl Streep stopped by Carolina, a trendy Manhattan eatery that has served up gen-u-ine Southern specialties such as spare ribs, corn bread and barbecue to scores of New York celebs. What did the seven-months-pregnant actress order? Chicken livers and chocolate truffle. A craving's a craving.

Where was ICE? Feds Supervised 287(g) Program in Jails, Touted Numerous "Success Stories" This Year
The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement bureau isn't ready to comment this morning on the impact of severing ties with the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office.
Which is a shame, because we have some good questions for them. Like, why was ICE supervising operations (see the last couple of pages of its agreement with MCSO) up until yesterday in what the Justice Department yesterday called a "culture of bias." Weren't they part of the culture?
Were the supervisors clueless to what the DOJ called the worst organization for racial profiling in US history? Or did 287(g) supervisors act as secret spies, collecting data on discriminatory policies and reporting it to their own ICE superiors, but not speaking up publicly about them?
ICE has a 287(g) "success stories" page that lists several "successes" of the Maricopa jail program. In other words, ICE is still bragging about the Maricopa program it just canceled.

The impact of severing ties with MCSO will present logistical challenges for ICE. A letter to Maricopa County Attorney Bill Montgomery by ICE boss John Morton says agents will be brought into the state to help with "existing immigration enforcement priorities," but doesn't detail how it will take up the slack in county jails. Will the gang members and repeat offenders listed in the "success stories" still be dealt with properly, or released to the streets, as Sheriff Joe Arpaio warned yesterday?
Morton's letter says ICE will no longer respond to MCSO calls on traffic stops and other minor offenses. That seems to mean the sheriff's immigration sweeps and human smuggling enforcement until won't be able to function at all. Without access to federal computers, the sheriff's office will, in many cases, be unable to identify whether they've caught an illegal immigrant or someone who has the legal right to be in the country.
Calls to the sheriff's office this morning weren't returned.
Montgomery has a news conference scheduled for 10:30 a.m. to talk about this issue. We'll let you know what he says.

A Practical Hand-on Guide for Deploying a Large-Scale Wireless Multi-Hop Network
The knowledge of how to exactly deploy a wireless multi-hop network can be of interest for both researchers and engineers. Engineers may be interested in the possibility of extending the coverage area of their traditional access point and to provide ubiquitous Internet connectivity at a significantly reduced cost and some communities have already started to do so. Researchers need large-scale testbeds offering a certain level of flexibility in order to study the behavior of existing protocols, validate their analytical model and prototype their novel algorithms.

Seven days a week
Tower shooting is a very popular sport at Markover. The guns shoot from stations as the birds pass overhead at tree top level.
We are enjoying a great winter for upland hunting. The cover is still good and the birds are flying well. We are taking bookings for chukar hunts in March, these are very strong flying birds that do not run the way late season pheasants tend to.
There are many good weekend and weekday openings still available.
Our pricing is direct and transparent and when all things are considered we offer memorable top-quality hunts at a realistic price
Hunting cover is a primary focus at Markover, we have anticipated the changing seasons and have developed varied cover to change with them.

2006 Honda Element SUV EX 4dr SUV (2.4L 4cyl 4A)
this car has been so great to me and my son ( who rides in his car seat safely ) who, too loves cruising around in our Honda Element.great MPG, reliability, and handles well ileven in wet or stormy weather.
2006 Honda Element SUV EX-P 4dr SUV AWD (2.4L 4cyl 4A)
Fun, easy to drive and so versatile with the large cargo area, it's like having the storage space of a minivan but the compact exterior for smaller spaces. The only tricky part for me is getting in and out of the back seat (having bad knees) is a bit awkward. A backseat heating/cooling vent would also be nice for ventilation, but I've travelled back and forth across the country several times and it has been a great ride every time. The all wheel drive makes snow and ice travel possible, where I've had other vehicles unable to do the job in bad weather. Honda Element owners seem friendly and happy - many Element drivers wave to me as if to say, "isn't this a great car to drive!" I've also found it humorous when I come out to the parking lot where I've parked far away from cars, only to find two to three other Elements parked around mine.
2006 Honda Element SUV EX 4dr SUV (2.4L 4cyl 5M)
In 2003, I hated them. They were square, somehow shy looking, and yet moved with unearned confidence. Then, in 2009, when a friend told me he was looking for one, I gave it a second glance. I test-drove one. Seven hours later, it was in my name. I bought my 2006 Element EX with 30,000 miles on it. Six years later, when the odometer read about 77,000 miles, I found it hit by a driver and totaled. Very sad. This Element is the perfect companion. It's resilient, adaptable, and always two steps ahead. It finished my...sentences. As long as I fed it oil and kept it up, it was dependable. In 2015, I'm looking to buy my second Element. I love this car, even if it's a bit nerdy and too forgiving.
Versatility. Rear seats are easily folded up flat and hooked or fully removable. The cargo has the capacity to sleep two adults, fit a queen size mattress or a hide-a-bed, haul an eight-foot kayak, and tuck in two road bikes.
Simplicity. Power windows, AUX line in, power mirrors, rad stock sound system, and AC. Anything else would just complicate it.
Reliability. I rarely serviced mine, having driven 50,000 miles on it. I changed the oil and some filters, bought new brake pads (only in the rear since the front were fine). Even with 2WD, I was one of the last cars driving up a blizzardy hill before other cars started sliding down and hitting expensive things.
Character. Lots.
Seats could use a little lumbar support and the material in them is great for washing, but my driver-side one dried out and began cracking and tearing.
A little more pep and a little less gas sucking would have been wishful.
Center console was loose and wiggled around, and while I appreciated the three cupholders, I wish the front one were a little larger like the other two so as to fit all of the HydroFlasks.
Suicide doors were fine, but when having people in the rear, it always felt a little weird. The higher rear seats, on the other hand, were great for keeping otherwise forgotten about rear passengers in on conversations.
Hooks. Why no hooks to hang things from?
2006 Honda Element SUV EX 4dr SUV AWD (2.4L 4cyl 4A)
I have owned 2 Elements and I have loved them both.Best cars ever.Great gas mileage and roomy! Can clean out easy so if you have 1-2 kids this car is perfect.Very roomy in the backseat for your passengers.This car goes anywhere!Snow, Ice, Grass, Water... You name it, it goes!
Easy clean out, great gas mileage, roomy, subwoofer, AWD (drives in snow and ice great).
If I had to complain, I would say windnoise and maybe a little bit more power, but hey, it's a 4 cylinder!

Police search for man who exposed himself to girls
GLENDALE, Ariz. – Glendale police are looking for a man who exposed himself to two elementary school age girls at about 5 p.m. on December 2.
The two girls were playing in a greenbelt/park area of the Marshall Ranch Community near 57th and Sweetwater.
After the man exposed himself, he touched one of the girls inappropriately and then ran back to his vehicle and left the area.
The suspect is described as a Hispanic male, 30 to 39 years old, wearing a green hat, dark t-shirt and jeans.
He was driving an older four-door sedan with black door handles.
If anyone has information, call the Glendale Police Department at 623-930-3000.

Hi everyone.
I used to share my game music blogs on here. I'm not sure why I stopped. My blog continues on embow-music.co.uk; I think I felt bad for double-posting them.
I've been playing with a program called Stencyl recently, making musical widgets and apps. I've got a game coming out on the app store on 19th June. It's a multiplayer game called Block Stock.
The game is a Backwards Brick Breaker.
Please check it out - there is more info and a trailer on my new website.
If any bloggers reading this would like to cover the game, please let me know and I'll ping you a code to download it early!

The new baseball fields on South Grand Street are still only fit for cement pourers and landscapers.
But the nearly completed grounds already entice visitors' imaginations to hear the screaming crowds, barking umpires and other sounds of the game that will be the norm when the complex comes to life.
The six fields, suitable for baseball and softball games, cover about 40 acres of more than 400 acres the city owns at 3800 S. Grand St. The space is big enough that the city ultimately could put in six to eight sets of baseball/softball and soccer field tandems, as demand for such development increases.
Later phases will include adult fields, but the ones going up now are for youth teams. The three smaller fields have baseline dimensions of 60 feet, and the three larger ones have dimensions of 70, 80 and 90 feet.
Girls and boys ages 5 to 18 will be able to play T-ball, softball and baseball on the fields.
"Children can literally grow up here," said Kevin Jackson, parks planner for the city.
Wiley Hicks Jr. Inc. started construction of the complex in January 2003. The contractor has already done $4.1 million in work, funded by the city's capital improvement fund.
The entrance to the facility resembles the style of professional baseball stadiums in Arlington, Denver and Baltimore. Visitors will pass through an arch of metal rafters and stone columns onto a miniature cement baseball diamond.
"Children can literally grow up here."
Kevin Jackson, parks planner for Amarillo
From there, they'll make their way to a variety of structures and areas. A central stone building will attract lines for registration and concessions. Bleachers will fill with as many as 100 spectators per field. Scorekeepers will watch games inside heated and air-conditioned structures behind home plate, isolated from hecklers.
Teams will practice in warm-up areas, meet with coaches in miniature shelters and take the field from sturdy dugouts.
Picnic areas and a playground for younger siblings will go in among the six fields over the next two years, along with lighting for night play. In all, the cost shouldn't exceed $5 million, said Larry Offerdahl, parks director.
For now, some fence and cement touchups aside, the biggest holdup to umpires calling "play ball" is that the brown, dusty ground still needs to turn green.
Tournaments might be played there as early as the fall, but that scenario hangs on the turf taking hold by then. Crews on May 1 will begin sodding, sprigging and hydro-mulching. An irrigation system pumping on the level of 200,000 gallons a day three times a week will help the grass along, but won't be enough to start play in the fall if the summer is too dry, Offerdahl said.
The completed complex will be on the caliber to attract tournaments from across the state and nation, Offerdahl said. And Amarillo's local leagues - YMCA baseball and North Randall County Baseball Association - also anticipate using the fields.
NRCBA's membership among the 5 to 6 and 7 to 8 age groups is growing every year, said Tal Tate, board member.
"As they grow up, we'll need more fields for the larger kids," he said.
YMCA, which held its First Annual Early Bird Classic this weekend, traditionally has used the city's softball fields. The organization is expected to have four new youth baseball fields of its own opened a year from now and possibly as early as the fall.
But even with the new YMCA fields, the league also will play at the city's new complex, said Mary Ellen Mayfield, membership and sports director for Amarillo YMCA.

Employment growth in Mexico
January 03, 2001
Employment grew at an annual percentage rate of 3.4 percent in Mexico from 1991 to 1998. By this measure, Mexico compares favorably with many other countries.
However, at least two indicators of "informal" employment—employment in establishments with five or fewer employees and jobs with no employment benefits—grew at greater rates, especially in the first half of the decade. The 1995 economic downturn in Mexico played a large part in those developments, but only accelerated trends that were recognizable in 1991-93.
Since 1995, in contrast, total employment has grown faster than informal employment. Three contributing factors: recovery from the recession, rising exports, reforms in the social insurance system.
Comparative data for foreign economies are products of the Foreign Labor Statistics program. The "informal sector" is generally made up of small establishments providing marginal, insecure, and low-paying jobs. Read "Employment and unemployment in Mexico in the 1990s," by Gary Martin, Monthly Labor Review, November 2000, for more information on recent labor market trends in that country.
Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor, The Economics Daily, Employment growth in Mexico on the Internet at http://www.bls.gov/opub/ted/2001/jan/wk1/art02.htm (visited September 25, 2016).

TV Ratings: ABC's 'FlashForward' helps CBS rule Thursday
'Grey's Anatomy' and 'Private Practice' both win their hours in the demo
ABC won two-thirds of Thursday night in the key demographic, but thanks to another dismal performance by "FlashForward," CBS was still able to eke out a win for the night in the demo, while dominating overall.
Among adults 18-49, CBS averaged a 3.3 rating, beating the 2.8 rating for ABC in the all-important age group. FOX's 2.4 rating and the 2.2 rating for NBC followed. The CW's solid 1.5 rating was fifth.
Overall, CBS had a larger margin of victory, averaging an estimated 13.61 million viewers to go with an 8.3 rating/14 share. ABC's 5.6/9 was second, with FOX taking third with a 4.6/8. NBC's 2.9/5 held off the 2.0/3 for The CW.
CBS won the 8 p.m. hour with a 7.6/13 and a 3.9 demo rating for "Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains." FOX's "Bones" was a sturdy second with a 5.6/10, slightly up from last week. ABC's "FlashForward" was third overall with a 3.2/6, but dead last in the demo with a 1.3 rating. NBC's "Community" and "Parks and Recreation" had a 2.7/5 for the hour, as the addition of Rob Lowe to the "P&R" cast produced a statistically irrelevant bump in the 18-49 demo and a statistically irrelevant drop in total viewers. The CW's "The Vampire Diaries" closed its first season with a 2.1/4 and a 1.7 demo rating.
"CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" kept CBS in first overall at 9 p.m. with an 8.1/13, though CBS was third in the demo. ABC's "Grey's Anatomy" was second overall with a 7.2/12, but first in the demo with a 3.8 rating. FOX's had a 3.7/6 and a 2.3 demo rating. NBC finished fourth overall with a 3.5/6 for "The Office" and "30 Rock," but came in second in the demo. The CW's "Supernatural" got a small bump for its season finale.
"The Mentalist" completed CBS' overall sweep with a 9.1/16. ABC's "Private Practice" got a finale bump and did a 6.3/11 overall and a 3.2 demo rating, taking first for the hour. NBC's "The Marriage Ref" was substantially down from last week in a distant third.
All ratings information comes from preliminary Fast National Nielsen data, which includes live and same-day DVR viewing. All numbers are subject to change.

Reviews for 12-Hour Salad
"My Mom made this for years. Her recipe is almost identical, except hers has a layer of 5 chopped up hard boiled eggs. I think the eggs really add to it. Love this recipe!"
"I wasn't sure how I would feel about this recipe because I'm not crazy about mayonnaise or sour cream but boy was I surprised! This salad was a huge hit at Christmas dinner and I really enjoyed it myself. I couldn't believe that the veggies stayed crunchy despite sitting in the fridge overnight. I did use more bacon and cheese than what the recipe called for but thats just because it was a holiday and who doesn't like that stuff?! This will be a staple in our house from now on!"
"Amazing flavours, everyone loved this salad, it was the 1st to get eaten at our barbeque/party! It doesn't go soggy, stays fresh, and the flavour of the bacon goes right through overnight. I will make this again for sure."
"Deliscious! Made this for a barbeque and it went even before the potato salad, everyone loved it! Thelettuce keptfresh andthebaconflavourwentrightthrough. I couldeat this often!"
"My family just loved this salad. I will be making this again, I will make it one day,then stir everything and keep in refrig for more taste. I can hardly wait to hear the reviews."
"This recipe is so delicious. And, the funny thing is, even the wilted leftovers taste delicious. I also use a chopped hard boiled egg. Very yummy."
"The key is letting it sit overnight. I love the way the flavors meld together. The mayo - sour cream seals it off in the fridge. I got this recipe from a friend over 20 years ago. I still love it!"
"I don't use green peppers or sugar or sour cream. I use Best Foods mayo only and I use sweet onions. I put shredded cheddar cheese on the top. This dish travels well if you use frozen peas and make it right before you leave. Also, it's great for a BBQ as the peas keep it cold for a while.It would be great if all of the recipes would show the calories, carbs, etc. WITHOUT the mayo, etc. in case you were on a diet and wanted to use a diet dressing of your own choice."
"It's been awhile since I've had this salad, but it's just as good as I remember it!"
"Great salad. I took it to a party and the whole thing was eaten up very quickly. I have made it several times since."
"I love layered salads because you can make them ahead, and this is a good one. My husband and 2 sons gave it thumbs up, too. The bacon is a nice contrast in taste. Cut the ingredients in half for a family dinner. If you make sure to spread the dressing to the edge of the bowl and don't leave any holes for the air to get in, it seals the freshness of the veggies in. Since the lettuce is on the bottom, it doesn't get soggy."
"The lettuce does not get all soggy?"
"I've made this salad for many ladies luncheons. I added drained pineapple tidbits.LKAM"
"I made this wonderful salad for a Progressive dinner and received wonderful reviews so I am making it again for a Baby Shower Brunch.Thanks Again!"

In April of 2012 you posted a message to Tree Frog indicating that Laura Amelia Full Sheppard was your ggggrandmother. I believe that you are descended down a different branch from Laura than the one I am looking at but I am hoping you can help me or at least point me in the right direction.
One of Laura's children was Lewis Sheppard born 1836 in Virginia. One of Lewis' children was Draper Camden Sheppard born 1867 in West Virginia died 1924 in Wirt, West Virginia. One of Draper's children was William Dorr Sheppard born 1897 in Wirt, West Virginia died 1953 in Parkersburg, West Virginia. This is where I am looking.
I have a copy of a marriage license showing that William married my cousin Evalena Knupp 1923 in Wirt, West Virginia. This is as much as I know about their relationship. There is a memorial posted on findagrave for William Dorr Sheppard with a gravemarker photo including a woman named Katherine.
I am interested in finding out what happened to Evalena. Did she die and William remarried to this woman named Katherine? Did they divorce? Did they have children?
Any insights or suggestions you might have would be appreciated.
Thank you.
Don Knupp

RE: Warner?Wariner
Dear Mary Jane,
Yes, the Warriner, Warner, and Wariner names are all connected. My grandmother's maiden was Warriner. Her brothers was changed when entering the service by the government. They spelled it like the sound of the name. At that time it went to Warner. The country singers and brothers, Steve and Terry Wariner was Warriner. Niw it is Wariner.My grandparents Hiram Taylor Warriner and Eliza Ellen Sweeden were from Sewellton, Russell, KY. Later about 1910 or so moved north. They lived at Merrimac, KY Burial at Pine Grove Church Cemetery in Casey, County, KY.
I do not know who Mary Catherine's parents are at this time. Several people have John Wm Woods trees on anc.com, but none with her side of the family. I hope this helps, but all the Warner's in that area are related.
Grandma's came in from England and New York down to Russell County, KY. (V.)

I started making sewing patterns when I was pregnant with my third child. I had insomnia, so I would stay up at night thinking about how to make baby shoes! I love to create, and I especially love to figure out how things are made. I dabble in all kinds of crafts, but my first love is sewing.Read More » View all patterns by designer (18) »
I am a mother of a son with Autism as well as a COTA (Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant). I have heard countless parents ask how they can make a weighted vest for their child. There just isn't a lot of good info out there, especially all in one place. With this pattern, I show you how to make a weighted vest, and also give you detailed instructions on how to weight it. I suggest using washers and padding them instead of bulky rice or poly beads. This is a less bulky and more comfortable way to add weight. A girl ruffle version and basic casual version are included. This is a project for an experienced beginner. Email support is always available if you get stuck.
Included in the e-file:
-full size patterns for 12 sizes of vests: 18 Months, 2T, 3T, 4T, 5T, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12.
-tutorials and pattern pieces for faux flap pockets and ruffle pockets
-materials list and information on making weights
-sizing information
-detailed instructions with photos
How can this vest help a child with Autism or Sensory Processing Disorder? Extra weight provides proprioceptive input to the joints. Proprioceptive input can affect the behavior of a child with sensory needs. Propioceptive input can calming to a child who is hyperactive and can be stimulating to a child who is lethargic. It can also help children pay attention better. Always use a weighted vest under the supervison of an Occupational Therapist.
If you are interested in a pattern in larger sizes, please let me know. I will make larger sizes if there is enough demand.

After six seasons, 52 episodes and plenty of heartbreak, we're gearing up to bid our final adieu to everyone's favorite aristocrats – and their servants – in an episode that Downton star Michelle Dockery told The Telegraph she "felt sick" shooting.
Luckily for those across the pond, Americans still have a whole season of 1920s-set intrigue to experience.

Romance, Scandal and that Secret Baby: What to Look for in Downton Abbey's New Season
Originally posted 01/04/2015 03:35PM
No meth labs. No superheroes. No steamy sex scenes. So what exactly is it that's got me – an avowed avoider of most things period, British and cozy – hooked on Downton Abbey?
As Season 5 kicks off (on PBS at 9 p.m. Sunday), I think it's the show's sense of human decency – amid rapidly changing times and trying circumstances – showcasing the Granthams' (and most of their circle's) ability to maintain stiff upper lips along with soft hearts.
Season 5 is a quiet but pleasurable one – nothing truly major happens, and that's just fine. After the devastation of World War I and, closer to home, the sudden death of Lady Mary's husband Matthew Crawley back in Season 3, there's enough tragedy still reverberating. As the characters all consider the next steps in their lives, here are some highlights of the new season (mild spoiler warning):

Downton Abbey's Elizabeth McGovern Is in a Band
Originally posted 11/13/2014 09:10PM
Though she plays the upper-crust aristocrat on Downton Abbey, in real life, Elizabeth McGovern spends her free time jamming with her folk/country band, Sadie and the Hotheads, and can be heard singing on the upcoming – wait for it – Christmas at Downton Abbey album, out Nov. 17. So what exactly does a Downton Abbey Christmas album sound like?
"It's just a really nice collection of Christmas songs done in a classical way, with the Budapest City orchestra and a beautiful choir," McGovern tells PEOPLE. And cast members singing! McGovern does a solo version of "It Came Upon a Midnight Clear," as well as a duet of "The First Noel" with fellow Downton cast mate Julian Ovenden who plays Charles Blake, one of Lady Mary's two new suitors. (Ovenden, a professional singer, has several other solo songs on the album.) Jim Carter, who plays Carson, does a spoken-word version of " 'Twas the Night Before Christmas."

(Smith, 78, won a Golden Globe Sunday night and is nominate ford a SAG Award for her role on Downton.)
