How these Sweet 16 coaches win (and how they lose)
For better or worse, in March, we tend to view each team's success largely as a reflection of its coach's performance. And even if that habit is overindulged at times -- the players do have to go out there and make the shots themselves -- I think it basically reflects a healthy instinct. For one

Good place to announce large collection of DVDs for sale?
My Toronto-based shop has just received a huge collection of art house, cult, foreign, Criterion, out of print etc. DVDs. For obvious reasons I'd like to turn these over as quickly as possible. I posted to our web site and Craigslist to announce the titles, but what other online places do DVD people gather where I could post this news without it being considered spam? Thank you.

Made for a little explorer! Hand painted green turtle with Diego figurine. I tried to make it as realistic as possible, except for the colour, which I made bright green because it was a child's cake. She was very excited to see it.
Wow! That is really good!
Great attention to detail, good job!
Your painting is so striking and the turtle looks AMAZING!
Diego and his pal are so cute! You created a great child's cake. ;-D

Water Quality Improvement Plans (WQIPs) and Healthy Waters Management Plans (HWMPs)
The Environmental Protection (Water) Policy 2009 establishes Healthy Waters Management Plans (HWMPs) as a key planning mechanism to improve the quality of Queensland waters. Key matters to be addressed in a HWMP include identifying:
- waters to which the plan applies
- issues affecting water dependent ecosystems, drinking water and natural flows
- waterway uses and values (otherwise known as 'Environmental Values' and abbreviated as 'EVs')
- management goals and Water Quality Objectives (WQOs) to protect identified EVs
- ways to protect the environmental values for the water
- ways to monitor and assess the effectiveness of the protection.
Key aspects of the process to develop EVs include appropriate consultation with the community and consideration of social and economic impacts of protecting the EVs. A Guideline on HWMPs provides more information on the content and process.
In some areas, regional NRM bodies and Councils have prepared water quality improvement plans (WQIPs) Where WQIPs adequately address matters specified under the EPP Water for HWMPs, they may be accredited as HWMPs.
Healthy waters management plans
The Department of Environment and Heritage Protection (EHP) is working with regional partners throughout Queensland to prepare (or update) HWMPs and WQIPs that meet requirements under the Environmental Protection (Water) Policy 2009.
Murray-Darling Basin
HWMPs are being prepared by EHP in consultation with the three regional NRM bodies in the Queensland Murray-Darling Basin. In addition to meeting requirements under the Environmental Protection (Water) Policy 2009, the HWMPs will also be prepared to meet the requirements of a Water Quality Management Plan (WQM Plan) under the Basin Plan 2012. The HWMPs/WQM Plans will apply to the surface waters (including lakes and wetlands) and groundwaters across the following river basins:
- Warrego, Paroo, Bulloo and Nebine
- Moonie
- Queensland Border Rivers
- Condamine and Balonne.
Water quality improvement plans
Great Barrier Reef catchments
WQIPs for catchments draining to the Great Barrier Reef were initially prepared by Regional NRM Bodies and Councils under the Australian Government's Coastal Catchments Initiative. EHP worked with WQIP project teams to ensure that the EVs and WQOs were established consistent with the Environmental Protection (Water) Policy 2009 requirements. A number of regional NRM Bodies are currently updating their WQIPs (refer links below).
- Wet Tropics WQIP (updating Barron, Douglas and Tully-Murray WQIPs)
- Burdekin WQIP
- Burdekin Draft Environmental Values
- Black-Ross Basins (Townsville) WQIP
- Mackay-Whitsunday WQIP
- Burnett-Mary WQIP (including Burnett-Baffle WQIP, Mary and Burrum basins)
WQIPs are also under development in the Fitzroy/Capricorn Coast region (Fitzroy Basin Association) and eastern Cape York (Cape York Regional NRM).
As part of the initial round of WQIPs, consultant Marsden Jacob Associates (MJA) was engaged to identify the economic and social implications of protecting the EVs throughout the region covered by separate WQIPs. The report, The economic and social impacts of protecting the environmental values of the Great Barrier Reef, is available for downloading.
South East Queensland catchments
There is further information available on how the Queensland Government works with partners in the Healthy Waterways Network to improve the health of the catchments and rivers of South East Queensland.

It's this truism that glutted the 16-bit gaming industry with second-rate Sonic wannabes; this philosophy that leads Sony Online Entertainment to place scantily-clad elf girls on the cover of every EverQuest product. Yet only a tiny handful of characters have truly made it to the point of true pop-culture celebrity: The point at which even non-gamers recognize their names and faces. Pac-Man, Mario, possibly Sonic in happier times. And one other, born at the dawn of the 32-bit era -- Tomb Raider heroine Lara Croft.
Strange, then, that to most gamers she might as well be nobody.
Ask gamers about her upcoming adventure, Tomb Raider: Legend, and you'll find mostly apathy. Search for Tomb Raider fansites and you'll be hard-pressed to find many that weren't abandoned years ago. The shine is well and truly off Lara's star, and Eidos has gone from being one of the powerful companies of the 32-bit era to a nearly-bankrupt venture that was shopped around until SCi Entertainment finally nibbled.
How did it come to this? How have two former powerhouses fallen so far? And more importantly, what is Eidos doing to make its former superstar attractive to its audience again?
The Tomb Raider timeline to date encompasses six console and PC games; while none have been truly bad, a look at their GameRankings averages reveals a great deal about the franchise's fortunes... and how gamers have responded.
Tomb Raider
GameRankings Avg.: 89.6
The first game in the series, and unquestionably the most important (at least in terms of positive impact). Few gamers went away from Lara's debut unimpressed, if not with the stunning gameplay than at least with the appealing heroine.

Toledo Public Schools will hold a hearing today on the budget for the 2009-10 school year.
The hearing is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. in the board headquarters at 420 East Manhattan Blvd.
Last month, the board approved budget cuts and capacity changes, which included closing Fulton and Nathan Hale elementary schools, to trim $10 million from the coming year's budget.
The Fiscal Year 2010 budget includes $280 million in revenue and $287 million in expenditures.
The district's five-year forecast has balanced budgets for the current fiscal year and next year, but is anticipating shortfalls of up to $20 million for fiscal year 2011 and $50 million for 2012.

A Great City, Is Its Healthy Citizens? Plenty Of Jobs? A Well-Educated Population? Draiman 0 commentsDec 23, 2012 2:41 AM
A great city, is its healthy citizens? Plenty of jobs? A well-educated population? Or is it beautiful parks, a low-crime rate, and affordable transportation?
A great city is some, any, or all of those things and more. Cities are every one unique. So what constitutes a great city depends entirely on the city in question and the values of its residents. And that's why many of the participants of Global Innovation Outlook deep dive in Los Angeles advocated starting from the bottom and working up when going about building smarter cities.
"The questions that each city has to answer are these: How does leadership and management tap into the values of their communities? Do they have the systems and structures needed to translate those values into metrics that represent what people want? And are they able to then measure their progress towards those goals?" said S, a Senior Managing Director at Tech, a non-profit organization that provides young teachers in disadvantaged school districts.
Taylor was not alone in this approach. The discussion featured experts in everything from urban planning and management to health care. It included futurists, urbanites, and journalists; academics, educators, and technologists. And many of them agreed on the need for some kind of system for urban change that is adaptable, specific to each particular city, and informed by the residents of that city.
Here are a few salient quotes from the day around this idea:
"You have to go back down to the bottom," said one participant. "You have to be able to tailor your solutions, because what's good for one city might be catastrophic to another. And the system must govern toward that vision, but be designed for rapid, incremental change and response to things we cannot possibly predict."
"We are trying to plan a quality of life and an urban experience for people that we don't even know yet, our future generations," said M, Director of Industry. "Already my kids interact with each other and their schools in ways that I don't understand."
And finally:
"We know that more planning does not necessarily help you succeed," said another participant. "In fact, the more you plan, the greater the cost of failure. So let's have a thousand little failures that make up a collective, long-term success."
Throughout the day, much of this thinking was directed towards the subject of education. There was little disagreement among those in the room that urban schools are part of the foundation of a smarter city. And the philosophies above have direct relevance in how to approach improvement of city schools.
"You can define and measure an educated city in a number of ways," said T. "Maybe it is narrowing the gaps between the best and worst education level. Or maybe it's the percentage of people that go to an Ivy League school. But you have to be careful which metrics you choose, because those two things are very, very different. So where you start from shapes what information you're going to gather and what you will do with it."
At least one metric that most people in the room felt was important was the level of integration city schools had with their communities. For example, Oakland's school system has its students addressing climate change by going out into the community and performing energy audits around the city. This is just one example of how educational curriculum can intersect with other urban systems, in this case energy and utilities, and make the school system a more integral part of a community. This enables the schools to improve the community, and makes the community more inclined to support the schools.
While it may be true that no two cities are alike, there are plenty of lessons to be learned from examples like these. And when the values of the community are taken into account, a vision is created, and progress is measured, smarter cities are possible, one small step at a time.Back To jdraiman's Instablog HomePage »

Collection of resources on health risks and safer alternatives.
Bisphenol A is used in many consumer products including including pop cans, hard plastic food and water containers. It is also used in dental sealants. Scientific information reveals the potential for Bisphenol A to interfere with the endocrine system which may contribute to a wide range of effects on the structure and function of other body systems including impacts on the reproductive system and brain development. It is also a suspected carcinogen.
The government of Canada has declared BPA as toxic under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act and banned BPA from baby bottles. Health and environmental organizations are calling for a more comprehensive set of precautionary actions in the face of uncertain but very troubling scientific evidence about the potential effects of this chemical at exposure levels that the entire population is already experiencing.

With a much smaller group than in year's past, the Bainbridge girls swim and dive team may not have the best dual meet record this season or be considered the favorites for a 3A state title.
But head coach Greg Colby said it's been a lot easier for the coaches to manage a smaller team.
"They're going to get a lot more training and they'll get more personal attention which equates to better coaching," he said. "(Plus) we get to do some actual coaching."
Last season, the Spartans ended up with a fourth place finish, but no individuals or relay teams came home with titles.
Twelve seniors were lost to graduation, including many who provided depth and several who have been the main scorers for Bainbridge for the past two years including Isabel Williams, Keziah Beall and Tessa Griffin.
Several more swimmers also moved on to other sports or moved away.
But even with the small squad – Colby estimates they'll have about 27 swimmers once everyone gets their paperwork turned in – he's excited about the potential of the team.
Many swimmers trained on their own or with the Bainbridge Island Swimming Club during the offseason.
"The kids that have come out have shown a great work ethic," he said. "I think we've seen a lot of improvement.
"I think at the state level we'll be OK because we'll still get at least one scorer in every event.
"We have a lot of swimmers that have a lot of great potential," senior co-captain India Wade said. "We'll just have to work a bit harder to get those top times."
Colby also feels the mood will be a bit more relaxed than last season.
"There was a lot of drama (last season) and it just distracted the team," he said. "These guys seem more focused... they've just buckled down at these practices and gone to work."
Wade and senior Julie Pendleton felt the smaller team will help make everyone more unified.
"With a big team, it's easier for people to break off into smaller groups," Wade said. "With a smaller group it's easier to be more cohesive. Greg's going to be able to get more people in the weight room and we'll be able to have more people swim."
Pendleton said the reduced size of the team makes it easier for everyone to get their yardage in, as there weren't enough lanes for everyone to have even space to swim last year.
"Even if you're the best of friends you can still get mad at each other," she said. "This year it's just a lot easier to handle."
Some of the standout returners include Wade and Pendleton along with senior co-captain Kristine Valdez. All three have state experience and have been key members of the relay teams for the past few years.
They'll take part in the relays again this year while Pendleton will swim the 200 meter individual medley and the 100 meter butterfly.
Wade will swim the 200 and 100 freestyle while Valdez moves to the 100 free and the 100 backstroke. A knee injury suffered during the summer may keep her out of the 200 IM.
Several other returners that Colby feels can make state include the lone diver in senior Kate McKenzie, senior co-captain Lisa Heinlen, senior Emily Sonnenfeld, senior Shannon Stahl and senior Margaret Huisinga.
"Shannon's worked her butt of this past (off)season," Colby said. "She's got a legitimate chance to be on a relay or a relay alternate."
Another swimmer that Colby said "has a ton of potential" is senior Alyssa Konkel, who came out as a sophomore but spent last season with the color guard.
"She looks great in the water and is really strong," Colby said.
Some newcomers that Colby and the captains feel they could make an impact are freshman Cameo Hlebasko, a standout swimmer with BISC, and freshman Tess Harper.
Colby plans on swimming Hlebasko in the 200 free and the 500 free and some relays.
"Cameo will make an impact at state," Colby said. "She's pretty strong."
With the small numbers, several swimmers will have to cover many events, making fatigue a factor. Colby is still unsure who will do the 100 breaststroke.
While Bainbridge has lost several swimmers, so have several other perennial powers around the state. Wade feels Kennedy is still the team to beat, while Colby sees Kennedy and Mercer Island, among several other teams, that can contend for a title.
"I think it might be a little tighter point-wise at state, but it'll be the usual suspects," he said.
Colby said he has "guarded confidence" that Bainbridge can earn a trophy. But he would be just as happy if the younger swimmers can have a good season and make huge strides in the pool.
"I really see the potential for a lot of them to improve," he said. "We won't lose very many seniors from this year, so if we have this core group move from district qualifiers to borderline state qualifiers and we get over that hump, we'll have a killer team next year."
"We're not going to have too many JV heats (this season)," he continued. "We'll be barely able to cover the lineup. But the kids will get a lot of swims and compete a lot.
"I'm looking forward to it."
Bainbridge opens the season at Mercer Island Sept. 9. Their first home meet is against Camas Sept. 12.

Just in time for Valentine's Day, "50 First Dates" is a spin on the "Groundhog Day" notion of a day that keeps repeating itself. This time, though, the recycling takes place entirely inside the mind of Lucy Whitmore (Drew Barrymore), who was in an accident that caused short-term memory loss. Every night while she sleeps, the slate of her memory is wiped clean, and when she wakes up in the morning, she remembers everything that happened up to the moment of the accident, but nothing that happened afterward.
Is this possible? I'd like to bring in Oliver Sacks for a second opinion. Seems to me that short-term memory loss doesn't work on a daily timetable, but is more like the affliction of "10-Second Tom," a character in the movie who reboots every 10 seconds.
Still, this isn't a psychiatric docudrama but a lighthearted romantic comedy, and the premise works to provide Adam Sandler and Barrymore with a sweet story. They work well together, as they showed in "The Wedding Singer"; they have the same tone of smiling, coy sincerity.
The movie is sort of an experiment for Sandler. He reveals the warm side of his personality, and leaves behind the hostility, anger and gross-out humor. To be sure, there's projectile vomiting on a vast scale in an opening scene of the movie, but it's performed by a walrus, not one of the human characters, and the walrus feels a lot better afterward. This is a kinder and gentler Adam Sandler.
He plays Henry Roth, a marine biologist at a Hawaiian sea world, healing walruses, sea lions and dolphins and moonlighting as an expert in one-night stands. He romances babes who are in Hawaii on vacation, and then forgets them when they go home, so imagine his amazement when he meets Lucy and finds that she forgets him every night.
Lucy is surrounded by a lot of support (her loving dad and the staff at the local diner), and they're dubious about the motives of this guy who says he's so much in love he's willing to start over with this girl every morning.
You'd think it would be hard to construct an arc for a story that starts fresh every day, but George Wing's screenplay ingeniously uses videotape to solve that problem -- so that Lucy gets a briefing every morning on what she has missed, and makes daily notes in a journal about her strange romance with Henry. Eventually this leads her to conclude that it's unfair to Henry to have to endure her daily memory losses, and she says she wants to break up. Of course the formula requires this, but how the movie solves it is kind of charming.
The movie doesn't have the complexity and depth of "Groundhog Day" (which I recently saw described as "the most spiritual film of our time"), but as entertainment it's ingratiating and lovable. And it suggests that Sandler, whose movies are so often based on hostility, has another speed, another tone, that plays very nicely.
This message came to me from a reader named Peter Svensland. He and a fr...

I admit it. I grew up in the 80s. I like 80s music.
But I wasn't s top 40 kind of girl. I listened to The Cure and Depeche Mode and Sisters of Mercy a lot more than than Madonna or Culture Club. Therefore most 80s clubs are a letdown, because i don't hear the songs I grew up dancing to.
However, House of Blues' Flashback Friday nights have a good mixture of mainstream 80s mixed with what we'd now call alternative music. Kind of heavy on the rap and R&B, but overall I can't grumble too much.
There was a radio station that said if you showed up before 10 pm, they'd put you on the 'guestlist' for free admission. When I showed up at 9:45 and asked, the bouncers had never heard os such a thing, but gave use 4 free tickets anyhow. So it's worth a shot :)
Dress Code Not that I know of
The Foundation Room at the House of Blues is the premier cool spot for any music lover. You need to know someone or be a person with a membership card to get into this hip, tribal decorated private club located on top of the Mandalay Bay. The music is fantastic! Best part is when you are hot from dancing up a storm, you can take a break on their outdoor patio and enjoy the beautiful cityscape of the Las Vegas lights.
Dress Code Dress like a hip rocker! you can get away with jeans and a collared shirt (for guys), if you don't want to rock the leather pants. Ladies, anything trendy goes.
The Foundation Room is an exclusive club run by the House of Blues for it's VIPs. Not that we were VIPs -- we had a friend who has worked for the HOB for years, and got us in. This is an amazing place - full of 'stolen' culture from other places. Wooden panels from Bali, temple icons and the like. It kind of makes you sad in a way to know people run around the globe buying this stuff to just put in a night club. Anyhow, it is cool to look at if you get there. A-list types supposedly hang out here. Lots of private booth dark places to hide out, great stiff drinks. Great Vegas views from the terrace. Very swank hangout spot indeed!
Dress Code Fancy dress - no jeans, sneakers etc. -- dresses recommended for women, shirt w/collar and trousers for men.
Located in the heart of Mandalay Bay right off the casino. Great place to listen to a mix of ecclectic live music. Becomes packed dance floor on weekends. There is a bar for drinks and tables for dinner. Highly recommended.
The House of Blues Foundation Room is at the top floor of the Mandalay Bay Hotel. The view of the Strip from the patio is incredible but you have to be a member or be with a member to get in.
The House of Blues Foundation Room in the Mandalay Bay Hotel.
The view of the Strip from the patio is to die for, but not everyone can enjoy it. You need to be a member, and membership is expensive!!! Luckily, my friend's father is a member, and he took us for the night.
I have been to House of Blues' before, but WOW did the vegas spot have some nice venues lined up! Fat Joe was there one Friday, and he rocked the house.... there was rock bands there before, defiantely one of my fav places to watch a performance...
Dress Code casual classy, rock n roll style
House of Blues was great. They were playing all kinds of 80's music so we loved it.. Great atmosphere.

Käringön Things to Do
Beautiful simple church on Käringön
The little church on Käringön is well worth a visit, after all it was the priest long time ago who is responsible for the colourful plants all over the island (but this is a story for the local customs section). The church is quite old,. Built end of 19th century when the island had its heydays as a fishermen island with approx. 300 inhabitants....more
Käringön is one of those little islands that you just have to see to believe that it exists. It's a tiny little island with a history that dates back to the 16th century, when the first fishermen came to the island. The island had its heydays between 18th and 19th century, a time when herring was in high demand. The fishman salted and dried the...more
Pilot's lookout: marvellous view, cute...
I fell in love with this house when I saw a photo of it on Simone's page. First I thought that this is just a little summer house but when we were on Kärinön I realised that this is another of these pilot lookout houses, similar as the one on Gullholmen. They have been used during the days when meteorological forecasts and weather measures weren't...more
Don't miss the red church of...
You might wonder why I recommend this church on a page about Käringön, because the church is just outside of the tiny village of Hälleviksstrand where the ferry to Käringön (island) leaves from. But it is so close on the way to the ferry anyhow and well worth a visit. I discovered it on Google Earth's photos and immediately fell in love with its...more
The busy little harbour
The village is concentrated around the harbour on the northern side of the island, which is by far the busiest part of the island. Although 'busy' is probably not the correct word for it, 'cosy' is maybe more a word that I would use.This is where the ferry arrives, where the little fish store is located and you can even find a small supermarket on...more
The village of Käringön
The village of Käringön is small. About 130 people live here all year round and an interesting fact is that 180 of the islands 200 houses were build before 1920. It is a charming place to walk through, which of course has to be done in a leisurely pace, as everything seems to slow down as soon as you set foot on this little island. It's wonderful...more
Käringön Restaurants
Relaxing atmosphere, excellent setting
One of my favourite restaurants in Sweden is without a doubt Peterson's Krog. It's probably a combination of many factors that it has become a favourite of mine, one of them being the relaxed atmosphere with an elegant and at the same time cosy interior. No real dress code applies, at least not for lunch. The same relaxed atmosphere of the island...more
The place to be for some delicious food
So let me give you a little taste of the menu at Peterson's Krog. During our latest visit we started off our lunch with a classical Swedish dish called "Toast Skagen". This is a delicious combination of shrimp and dill mayonnaise on a small piece of sautéd bread. It was served with some whitefish roe and a sprig of dill on top and some salad on the...more
Peterson's Krog, simply the best!
Oh well…. Peterson's Krog is such an excellent restaurant that I will not only put it on my Sweden page but also on my Europe page. It is… the best! However, I can only write prosa here and am not able to give prices, because.. yes, because the visit on Käringön and dinner at Peterson's Krog was my birthday gift from dear Simone and Åke. They could...more
Käringön Transportation
By ferry only, no cars on the island
Käringön (island) is even smaller than the one of Gullholmen (and Hörmanö) and also here, cars are not allowed on the island. The only mode of transport is the ferry (or private boats, albeit much more expensive). The ferry leaves from the tiny village of Hälleviksstrand and a ride takes approx. 30 minutes. The ride is exceptional though, because...more
The ferry from Hälleviksstrand
There are two ways to get to the island of Käringön, well, actually three if you would include going here by your own boat. For all others the most likely alternative would be by taking the ferry to the island. The ferry departs from the little village of Hälleviksstrand around 5 to 10 times a day. During the weekends the ferry only departs 5 times...more
Your only choice....
Once you get to the island you only mode of transportations is quite simple: your own two feet. There is no motorised traffic on the island and I didn't even see a bicycle around. So it is walking that will bring you to the place you want. Not that the distances are that huge (remember, the island is very small!) but still, everything you bring you...more
Käringön Local Customs
Plants grow everywhere, thanks to the...
There is a cute story or legend about priest August Simson who worked on the island until his death 1900. It is said that he gave order for anyone who travelled on the mainland or island of Orust to bring back soil so that they could have a proper cemetary. Käringön island's surface is rocky, so no soil was here. And it seemed to have worked...more
Letterboxes, toilet houses - Käringön...
Another special feature I noticed on Käringön, like on Gullholmen, is the very much artistic way the inhabitants decorate their houses, gardens or even toilets. I loved the little sign saying "Bad" which leads to the bathing area (nothing bad with Bad, haha) and as if to make sure that everyone understands, it was decorated with a bathing suit....more
Käringön Hotels0 Hotels in Käringön
Käringön Off The Beaten Path
Also visit.....
Around Käringön there are the following places that are all worth visiting. I try to include at least one or two every time I return to the West Coast:
Hällevikstrand: A quiet little village, maybe mainly known for its ferry to Käringön. It is worth while though to wander into some of the small winding streets and enjoy the view of the colourful houses clinging to the rocks and their romantic tiny gardens. Please do not forgot to cross the tiny bridge where you can climb up on the rocks on the other side and have a gorgeous view over the village and the little boat houses at the harbour.
Stocken: one of the quieter villages in the area. It is my favourite spot to stay though as they have some great accomodation alternatives. When there, don't forget to drop by at the local fish store, where they have an excellent selection of local fish. Perfect for on the grill! The evenings should be spend on the rocky shores where the sunsets are often breathtaking. While sipping on a cold glass of wine this makes for an excellent end of the day.
Gullholmen: absolutely gorgeous little fishing village, one of my favourites! I can walk around here endlessly and keep on clicking my camera forever with all the picturesque little houses and views. To the south is Hermansö, which is for the main part a nature reserve, and an excellent place to hike and enjoy the typical landscape of the west coast.
Mollösund; south of the villages mentioned above. Wonderful to sit here on the pier, 10 yards from the main "touristy sea highway", watching hundreds of sailing boats passing in an hour, sipping a cold drink. Also a great location to enjoy lunch or dinner. Mollösund is also the place where the Schooner Mathilda organizes several tours during the summer and gives you a chance to see the wonderful achipelago from a sailing boat (absolutely worth it!)
And if you would like to venture a bit further I can also recommend Marstrand: Marstrand seems to be a place that has it all: a cosy quay with colourful wooden houses, a fortress from the 17th century, wonderful rocky cliffs, a clear blue sea and views to die for. No wonder that it is loved and visited by so many people!

Comments about British Telephone Shower Conversion Kit With Hand Shower:
We recently bought and installed the British Conversion Telephone Kit. We are totally happy with the completed project. We did have an issue with getting joints to stop leaking despite numerous attempts of suggested remedies. This did cause some delays and did prove to be frustrating . We did this project over a weekend and we were unable to reach your customer service until Monday a.m. Thankfully discussing the problem with your on staff plumber allowed us to correct the problem. As stated the finished project is awesome.
Comments about British Telephone Shower Conversion Kit With Hand Shower:
Most other add on showers have either been really cheap or they want so much for them it just wasn't practical, But we decided to take a chance on this one and glad we did. It shipped earlier then I thought it would and installation went very well. We love it and wonder how we did without it for so long !!

Comments about British Telephone Shower Conversion Kit With Hand Shower:

The average Knowledge Manager in the United States earns approximately $74K per year. Career length and the particular city each impact pay for this group, with the former having the largest influence. Job satisfaction for Knowledge Managers is high. Men make up a slight majority of Knowledge Managers (51 percent) who responded to the survey. A large number get medical and dental insurance, and a fair number get vision plans, too.

Copy and paste this HTML:
A knowledge manager, a key figure within an organization, is responsible for storing, distributing, and managing information pertaining to the company and its effective operation. The main role of a knowledge manager is spread across a rather broad spectrum, but can be narrowed down to managing information assets. Their daily tasks generally consist of designing new knowledge distribution policies and disseminating that information via content management systems. These systems serve as a portal for other employees to use and take advantage of knowledge in the database, so keeping these information portals available to employees is vital to the success of the organization, though it is often an exclusively-internal mechanism.Read More...
The work is more mental than physical, and skills needed include communication, grammar, and organization. They must also be able to work both independently and in team environments to assist staff in implementing integration strategies and other activities in diverse groups. The work environment is an office setting, often within the headquarters of a place such as a law firm, investment company, engineering firm, or other industry.
The most common requirements to be a knowledge manager are a Bachelor's degree or equivalent and at least five years of related work experience. A knowledge manager typically works extended office hours and spends much of his/her time in the office or commuting between meetings and presentations. A typical day may involve waking up early to present the latest progress to seniors, training other personnel, and managing the information network from a computer workstation.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
For many Knowledge Managers, experience and pay levels seem to be correlated; more years in the business generally lead to more money. Respondents with less than five years' experience take home $62K on average. In contrast, those who have been around for five to 10 years earn a noticeably higher average of $77K. Knowledge Managers who work for 10 to 20 years in their occupation tend to earn about $93K. Knowledge Managers who surpass 20 years on the job report pay that isn't as high as one would expect; the median compensation for this crowd sits around $95K.

As parents, you have more school choices available now than at any time in recent history. There are traditional public schools, usually part of a larger district that range from very large urban districts, to smaller and more affluent suburban districts to rural districts with only one, two or three schools.
This summer will mark the 10 year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. But it also marks the start of an ambitious effort to break up New Orleans' long-beleaguered public school system and replace it with a market-based system in which charter schools compete for customers, in this case students and parents, and for top test scores.
My role as an unapologetic advocate for public education in the most affluent predominately African-American county in America often turns a trip to the park into a lesson on why large public education systems struggle, and why successful parents may be asking the wrong questions before making choices for their children.
To what extent can public charter schools can learn from some of the best ideas that undergird our nation's most outstanding, innovative private schools? It was this question that led the founding principal and executive director of a new, not-yet-opened charter school to spend a few days in the bucolic Pennsylvania countryside late last fall.
People across ideologies want our education system to work for America's children -- and that goes for many of National School Choice Week's backers as well as its critics. But let's not allow those whose real goal is the destruction of public education to cloak their agenda under the cheerful banner of "school choice."
Can public schools thrive in a school choice environment? I think so, yes. Options like charter, magnet, private, online and homeschool curricula are not meant to undermine the nation's public schools but to build them up through shared quality standards. There is room for all choices in K-12 schools and students benefit from the options.

anyone, i really need help
i need help. i am looking to buy my son a wii on black friday, but when i go to the online sites for different retailers, they just have in store and online "bundles". right now, my plans are to go to Sam's Club in the morning and get a bundle that comes with 3 games, 2 extra controllers and nunchucks for $500. where else can i find good deals on Wii. Are stores running out of wiis fast, because whenever i go to a store, i never see wiis in the windows. your help would be appreciated.
anyone, i really need help
With the shortages, I don't know that there's one place that's better than another. Personally I wouldn't get *near* any malls, stores, etc., on BF!
The wifey and I wound up scoring ours by checking online at CircuitCity and Toys~r~Us a couple of times a day. Got one for free shipping with a small bundle (Wii, extra controller/chuck + 1 game of our choice).
Best of luck!

It took me about a week to track one down, purchased about 1 week ago in the Bay Area California.
Best Buy: never had any, ever, even on their receiving day. Buddy of mine said they were holding a bunch in the back for BF to get people into their store. There was a letter online along these lines.
GameStop: always sold out before i could get them (they had used ones though).
EB Games: same as gamestop
Toys R Us: Clerk laughed and said good luck.
Target: wouldnt tell me their delivery date, never in stock when i checked.
Fry's Electronics: Only sold as one of several bundles, with no price reduction on anything in the bundle. They also had a stack of about 50 behind a cage in their register area.
I broke down and got it at Fry's with WiiPlay and a Nunchuck as a "Bundle" package.
If the Best Buy thing is true, i expect them to have some on BF, otherwise, GL as its a hot x-mas item.
You could always try online...
...Oh, wait. http://wiitracker.com/
I believe this question would belong here: http://www.wiichat.com/nintendo-wii-...earch-wii.html

Get a Wii on Black Friday? You are a brave soul. I tried a few times ~6 months ago at the local retailers and ended up getting a bundle online from toys r us. Get it online and save yourself the super intense grief of fighting for a Wii. Back in h.s. I worked at Best Buy and had to work Black Friday once...holy crap is all I have to say.
stores do not know when they are getting them in. my friend works at toys r us and he told me on a friday night "we got like 20 in. we're selling them sunday. u want me to save you one? show up in the afternoon." it's up to corperate to decied when they sell them, but have no idea when they come in.
good luck! when you're done eating dinner thursday evening (like 6pm), go to the store and camp out all night. i drove by about 11PM last year and there was a LOOOONG line. 11PM!!!!
aren't gamestop and eb games part of the same store chain?
I tried to get a Wii on Black Friday but couldn't find any. All I saw were tons of people walking out with their Wiis. I got my Wii finally January 16th from K-Mart.
Best buy is hording for the BF holiday crazyness. Also at select K-mart stores they will be selling Wii systems on Thanksgiving. Tommorow. At either rate you will need to get in line for either day very very early..like 2 am.
Gaming isn't a privilege it's a right!

Having recently retired from BMW of North America, a graduate of a former area college returned to Williamsport to share his experiences and tips for those entering the workforce.
Thomas C. Baloga, a 1974 graduate of Williamsport Area Community College, the predecessor to Pennsylvania College of Technology, offered his "10 Tips for Career Success" Tuesday.
"This is the gift I would relish most in my retirement, to present some tips to you," Baloga told students when discussing his career.
Baloga received an associate degree in automotive technology from WACC before furthering his education at Penn State. He has worked for Mercedes-Benz USA, Britax Child Safety, along with BMW.
His most recent posts with BMW were vice president of engineering, United States; president of BMW Technology Corp.; and vice president of engineering quality and safety.
And along his way he said he learned and observed many qualities that helped individuals succeed and ones that hindered it.
Baloga spoke about the importance of distinguishing confidence and arrogance. Imagining success and going after it is the goal, he said.
The importance of giving "110 percent" also was highlighted. Although employees should "give more" he told students to not damage their health or family lives in pursuit of success.
"When 110 percent is too much, maybe you need to move on," he said. "But go into it with 110 percent."
Through his years, Baloga has seen "office politics," and other misinterpretations, derail new employees early in their stay in a position; that's why he advised students that "the first two weeks define your reputation."
He said smiling, proper grooming and having a "yes attitude" will serve students heading into the workforce well.
"Whatever they ask you to do in your job – 'Yes, I'll do it,'" Baloga said.
And although people are hired and paid to solve problems, he said that if you don't have the answer, find it.
When asked, Baloga told students that in his early jobs out of WACC, his education is what stood him apart from others.
"What the associate degree I got here allowed me to do is go to the next level," he said.
When speaking on verifying facts, Baloga told the audience about an instance where he was given the task of finding why vehicles were not being built level. After look at every possibility on the vehicle, he soon found that the floor – which he had been told was level – was the problem.
Speaking after the presentation, Baloga said he hopes his advice will "make it easier for them" as they enter the workforce.
"I wanted the opportunity to pass these (tips) along to the students," Baloga said.
Tuesday's visit to Penn College was Baloga's first visit back to the campus since he graduated.
He noted how the campus has grown and how improved the facilities are.
"It's beautiful," he said of the campus.

Head coaches Paul Chryst (Pittsburgh), Dave Doeren (North Carolina State), Butch Jones (Cincinnati to Tennessee), Charlie Strong (Louisville), Willie Taggert (Western Kentucky to South Florida) have either affirmed their committed to their school, taken another job turned down other offers to remain at their school or will not be interviewed.
We also are taking current Wisconsin defensive coordinator Chris Ash off the board, as it sounds like the third-year UW assistant will head to N.C. State to lead Doeren's defense. The two are close friends and the move is understandable.
But even though we take four names off, we add some new names based on rumblings and sources we have talked to in the last 24 hours.
We also arrange them in order of importance in our opinion.
The Head Men
That report follows a report from last week from the Big 1970 that Petersen will interview for Wisconsin's vacant head coaching job today.
Alvarez indicated Thursday afternoon he would reach out to Petersen to gauge his interest, although Alvarez said, 'Chris seems pretty set at Boise.'
Petersen, 48, avoided questions about Wisconsin and other head coaching vacancies during a press conference for the MAACO Las Vegas Bowl. The 20th-ranked Broncos (10-2) will meet Washington (7-5) Dec. 22 game at UNLV's Sam Boyd Stadium.
The Broncos have put together a nation's best seven-consecutive 10-win seasons. The Broncos have gone undefeated twice under Petersen – 13-0 in 2006 and 14-0 in 2009 – capping each season with a victory in the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl.
Peterson is 83-8 in seven seasons at Boise State. He's won three WAC championships and won a share of his first Mountain West championship this season. His teams finished second in their league the other two seasons.
Following the 2010 season, Petersen was unanimously selected as the Bobby Dodd Coach of the Year, awarded annually to a coach who represents the highest ideals both on and off the field. He was also recognized in the offseason as having the best Academic Progress Rate (APR) average the past two reporting years for FBS head coaches.
Al Golden
The idea makes sense. Miami's president and former athletic director have close ties to Wisconsin, so it makes sense that Golden's hiring a couple years back was because the pair liked his values.
The former Penn State and New England Patriots tight end worked his way through the coaching ranks with stops as a defensive assistant at Boston College (1997-99) and Penn State (2000) before being hired as the defensive coordinator at Virginia in 2001.
He took over the head coaching position at Temple - a program had just two winning seasons over its previous 26 years and had only won 22 percent of its games over the previous 30 years - in 2006 and battled through a 1-11 record in his first season. He went a combined 17-8 in his final two seasons, including a trip to the EagleBank Bowl in 2009 – the school's first bowl appearance since 1990.
Golden was hired as the head coach at the University of Miami before the 2011 season and has guided the Hurricanes to a 13-11 record in two years, including a tie for first place in the ACC's Coastal Division this season. He was hired without knowledge of the ongoing investigation of alleged improper ties to booster Nevin Shapiro, which has caused the Hurricanes to self-impose bowl bans the last two years.
Miami is going to get a lot worse before it's going to get better. Reportedly, Golden turned down a 5-year, $10 million move to coach Boston College. Wisconsin can offer way more than that. Golden also has ties to Pittsburgh and the East Coast in terms of recruiting, which is an important area for the Badgers.
Also, Golden has worked for three athletic directors in two years, and Alvarez can provide stability and a solid program to build on.
Paul Rhoads
A former defensive coordinator at both Pittsburgh and Auburn, Rhoads' name is starting to gain some steam in some inner Wisconsin circles. He was raised only 20 miles outside Ames, IA, meaning he has those Midwest roots that are essential for Wisconsin.
In his first year at Iowa State, the Cyclones held three conference opponents to 10 points or less for the first time since 1965. Iowa State was 68th nationally in red zone defense in 2008. In 2009, the Cyclones ranked second-best among 120 FBS teams in that category. Iowa State's defenders were ninth nationally in turnovers forced. The Cyclones defeated the Nebraska in Lincoln for the first time since 1977 and Rhoads is the first Iowa State coach to win six games in his initial season since 1915. Iowa State capped its season with a victory over Minnesota in the Insight Bowl.
Iowa State was picked to finish last in the Big 12 North Division, but Rhoades led the Cyclones to the program's first win in Austin over Texas and finished tied for third in the Big 12 North. Last season Rhoads helped lead the program to its first win in Lubbock against Texas Tech and shocked the college football world with a home victory over No.2 Oklahoma State in November.
Rhoads' team, which was an underdog in 11 of its 12 BCS games in 2011, capped off the season in Yankee Stadium in the New Era Pinstripe Bowl in New York. For the second straight year, the Cyclones won six games, narrowly upset Kansas State, did upset then-No.15 TCU and will finish the season playing a bowl game (AutoZone Liberty Bowl Dec. 31).
On December 16, 2011, the school announced a 10-year contract worth $20M for Rhoads, but the passion he brings the table can't be denied. Rhoads is a young head coach (45) that has won big games despite not getting the biggest, best recruits.
Brad Childress
Childress has been out of the college game for 14 years, but spent nearly 20 years at the level. Childress began his coaching career at Illinois, spending the 1978 season as a graduate assistant before coaching both the running backs and wide receivers for six seasons (1979-84). He spent three years at Northern Arizona (1986-89), Utah (1990) and Wisconsin (1991-98). As the quarterbacks coach/offensive coordinator at the Wisconsin, the Badgers appeared in five bowl games, which included two Rose Bowl victories in 1993 and 1998 under Barry Alvarez.
Childress has head coaching experience (just not college head coaching experience) and the game has changed over the last 14 years. It'll be interesting to see where this goes.
Randy Shannon
Prior to posting a 28-22 record and three bowl appearances as the Hurricanes' head coach, Shannon was Miami's defensive coordinator for six seasons (2001-06). In five of those years, the Hurricanes ranked in the top seven nationally in defense while placing in the top four in scoring defense three times.
Shannon's units were in the top 20 in turnovers gained four times and twice in the top 10 in turnover margin, including topping the nation in 2001 behind an NCAA-best 45 takeaways (nine more than the next-closest school).
Shannon was named the recipient of the 2001 Frank Broyles Award as the nation's top assistant coach. During his time as a player and assistant coach at Miami, Shannon took part in three national championships (1987, 1991, 2001) with the Hurricanes. Miami won the 2001 national title in Shannon's first season as defensive coordinator. The Hurricanes led the nation in scoring defense (9.4 points per game), turnover margin (2.4) and pass efficiency defense (75.6 rating) while ranking second in pass defense (138.2 yards per game) and sixth in total defense (270.9 yards per game).
Shannon worked as an ESPN analyst during the 2011 campaign and was a linebacker coach for TCU this past season. His name has popped up for some coaching opportunities in Florida, as well, so he is definitely in the market for an upgrade.
The Assistants
Darrell Bevell
Bevell helped turn the University of Wisconsin program into a national power. A four-year starter for the Badgers, Bevell helped guide the team to a 10-1-1 mark as a sophomore in 1993. The squad claimed a share of the Big Ten championship for the first time since 1962 and defeated UCLA in the Rose Bowl. Between his sophomore and junior seasons, Bevell helped UW go 18-4-2. He left Madison as the school's all-time leading passer with 19 team records and a pair of Big Ten marks. His 67.8% completion mark set in 1993 stood as the conference record until 2010, and he was a 61.4% passer for his career.
Bevell is in his second season leading Seattle Seahawks' offense after spending five seasons (2006-10) as the Minnesota Vikings offensive coordinator.
Bob Diaco
Notre Dame ranks first in the nation in scoring defense and have one of the best front sevens in the college game, led by dynamic linebacker and Heisman finalist Manti Te'o. This isn't a one year blip either, as the Irish's 2011 defense ranked in the top 50 in scoring defense (24th, 20.7), total defense (30th, 344.7), rushing defense (47th, 138.9) and passing defense (38th, 205.8).
It was only the second time since 2003 and fourth time in the last 15 seasons a Notre Dame defense ranked in the top 50 in all four categories.
Diaco's coaching career has spanned a better part of the Midwest and, like Alvarez, is a former Iowa assistant and a disciple of Hayden Fry. Diaco is evidentially ready to be a head coach, as he was a finalist for the Boston College coaching vacancy, according to the Chicago Tribune.
The move makes a lot of sense for a lot of reasons.
In his sixth season as Michigan State's defensive coordinator, Narduzzi has developed the Spartans into one of the top defensive teams in the nation. In 2011, Narduzzi's defense had its best showing since his arrival in East Lansing. Michigan State led the Big Ten in rushing defense (100.5 yards per game), total defense (277.4 ypg.), interceptions (18) and third-down defense (.337). In addition, the Spartans ranked among the conference leaders in passing efficiency defense (second with a 113.3 rating), sacks (second with 45), tackles for loss (second with 105), turnover margin (third at +0.50 per game), red-zone defense (third at .763), passing defense (third at 176.9 ypg.), scoring defense (third at 18.4 points per game) and takeaways (fourth with 25).
This season, Michigan State can thank its defense as the only reason they are going to a bowl game, as the unit ranks 10th in the country in points allowed (16.3 ppg).
I've been told Narduzzi has not been contacted about the opening as of yet, but that's understandable with Alvarez first wanting to find a coach with experience. If Wisconsin calls, Narduzzi would certainly listen.
Joe Rudolph
Spending four seasons at Wisconsin as tight ends coach and recruiting coordinator, Rudolph had a tight end selected in three consecutive NFL drafts: Travis Beckum in 2009 (New York Giants), Garrett Graham in 2010 (Houston Texans) and Lance Kendricks in 2011 (St. Louis Rams). His efforts played a vital role in one of the best four-year runs in Badgers history. During that span, Wisconsin won two Big Ten titles and advanced to four bowl games, including a pair of Rose Bowls.
A member of Alvarez's first recruiting class, Rudolph twice earned All-Big Ten honors as an offensive lineman and was a three-time Academic All-Big Ten selection. In 1993 he helped the Badgers to a 10-1-1 record, the Big Ten title and first Rose Bowl victory in school history with a 21-16 decision over UCLA. As a senior in 1994, Rudolph served as a team captain and helped lead Wisconsin to an 8-3-1 record and 34-20 win over Duke in the Hall of Fame Bowl.
Rudolph was a huge loss for Wisconsin and Alvarez is extremely fond of him. Rudolph working this past season as offensive coordinator is a huge help for him in his quest to one day run his own program. He may not be the most experienced, but he has a lot of supporters still in Madison.
Mel Tucker
Tucker hasn't coached in college since 2004 and might be eyeing a NFL head coaching job, questioning if he will be around for the long haul.
