HOLY CRAP! This is a MUST buy if you are looking for a great pump! I literally just got it and its the biggest pump ive ever had in the gym. Would recommend to anyone who wants to look bigger. Helps increase intensity from seeing all the veins. Dont waste your money on big company brands, this works and its cheap
May 15, 2015
This product is great alone or best mixed with BCAAs or Creatine. Instead of 2 capsules 3 times daily, I take 2 in the morning and 4 right before workout which is ideal for a massive pump and increase in vascularity. Great product that gets the job done! Highly recommended!

While I am a huge fan of L - Arginine, I am not a fan of this brand. I purchase other NOW products an I like them, but did not notice any change or difference after 1 bottle of use. I have already gone back to the brand that I was previously using (From a different company). I wouldn't recommend this product.

I have been using this product for about 3 months now. I haven't really noticed any difference. As for a pumped feeling, still waiting for that to happen. I have taken as recommended. 3 before my workout and then 3 before bed. I figure it can't hurt. But like others have said, everyone is different.

Suspect Makes Getaway On Skateboard After Stealing 32-Inch TV
(Video clip attached of store surveillance cameras. The video is also on our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/ClearwaterPolice)
CLEARWATER -- Most robbery suspects opt for a car, a bicycle or just their two
legs for a quick getaway after a heist.
That wasn't the case late Wednesday at the Super Target at Clearwater Mall,
2747 Gulf-to-Bay Blvd., when a man made off with a 32-inch flat-screen TV on
a skateboard that he also used inside the store.
Now, Clearwater Police detectives are releasing video surveillance images of
the suspect's unusual heist in the hope of getting clues from the public.
The crime occurred just as the store was closing about 11 p.m. Wednesday. He
entered the store about a minute before closing and first was looking at cell
phone cases. The next stop was the TV section, where it didn't take him long
to find one he liked -- a 32-inch Element LCD version. The video shows him
skating through parts of the store with the TV in his hands.
When store personnel confronted him near the store's exit, he brandished a
utility knife and then ran out the door, TV and skateboard in his hand. Once
he was outside the doors, he jumped on the skateboard and headed toward
Gulf-to-Bay Boulevard. He last was seen zipping eastbound on the major
He was in the store for only about three minutes.
The suspect is described as a white male in his 20s with a thin build. He is
about 5 feet 11 inches tall and weighs 150. He was wearing a black hoodie,
dark jeans, green Nike shoes and had a black backpack. The make, model and
year of the skateboard are unknown - but it was brown in color with
orange-yellow wheels.
"I've never seen anything like it," said John Brown, the robbery detective
investigating the case. "He gets an A for creativity. But he committed a
serious crime and we need to find him."
Anyone with information on who the robbery and aggravated assault suspect is
should call Clearwater Police at 562-4242.
(For those desiring sound on this, I will be out of pocket from about 9:15ish
to about 11ish.)

The Associated Press In this Tuesday, Dec. 10, 2013 file photo, Donetsk's Douglas Costa, right, gets away from Manchester United's Alexander Buttner during their Champions League group A soccer match between Manchester United and Shakhtar Donetsk at Old Trafford Stadium, Manchester, England.
MOSCOW (AP) -- Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Douglas Costa says he and his fellow players who refused to return to the Ukrainian champion did so because the conflict in the country puts their lives at risk.
Costa and five other South American players refused to travel with the rest of the team to Ukraine for Tuesday's first match of the season.
The players "all run a deadly risk if we are in the region," Costa said on his Instagram page. He said he and the other five absent players wanted to train in Switzerland during the conflict and were not seeking a transfer.
"I like the club, the people, the city, but I'm afraid," he said in comments posted alongside a picture of the Shakhtar badge. "We want to stay at the club, but we must have risk-free working conditions."
Costa, 23, has been with Shakhtar since 2010, winning five straight Ukrainian titles and reaching the Champions League quarterfinals in 2010-11.
The city of Donetsk is held by pro-Russian rebels who are battling advancing Ukrainian forces, and around 60 kilometers (38 miles) from the site where Malaysian Airlines flight MH17 crashed Thursday with almost 300 people on board.
Costa's comments run counter to claims made by Shakhtar coach Mircea Lucescu, who has accused agent Kia Joorabchian of convincing the players they could use the conflict to sign new contracts with other clubs.
"It's a true scandal," Lucescu told French newspaper L'Equipe. "He took advantage from the situation to abduct them."
Shakhtar's billionaire owner, Rinat Akhmetov, has warned that the club could take legal action to force the six players to come back to Ukraine.
"If they don't come then in the first instance they will suffer," he said in a statement Monday on the Shakhtar website.
Refusing to fulfil their contracts could cost the players "tens of millions of euros" in compensation payments to the club, he warned.
The players did not return with the team following Shakhtar Donetsk's friendly against French team Lyon on Saturday. Shakhtar plays a Ukrainian Super Cup match against Dynamo Kiev in the western city of Lviv on Tuesday.
As well as Costa, fellow-Brazilians Alex Teixeira, Ismaily, Fred and Dentinho have not reported back with the club, along with Argentine striker Facundo Ferreyra.
The six represent less than half of Shakhtar's large South American contingent, which also includes Brazil internationals Bernard, Ilsinho and Fernando.
Shakhtar will play its home fixtures outside of Donetsk in the coming season, with Akhmetov expressing a preference for the nearby city of Kharkiv, which is majority Russian-speaking and held by the Ukrainian government, although there has been some unrest there in recent months.
The safety of players in Kharkiv has been put in the spotlight after a total of four players refused to return to the city's Ukrainian Premier League side Metalist Kharkiv, whose stadium Shakhtar would share under Akhmetov's plans.
The four players are all Argentinian, named as Jose Sosa, Jonatan Cristaldo, Alejandro Gomez and Sebastian Blanco in Argentine media.
FIFA can impose strict penalties in breach of contract cases. Players can be suspended for four months and clubs can face a one-year transfer embargo which prevents them from registering and fielding any new signings.
As Ukrainian champion, Shakhtar has qualified for the group stage of this season's Champions League.
The Ukrainian Premier League season, which starts Friday, has been reduced from 16 teams to 14 after its two Crimean clubs withdrew at the end of last season following Russia's annexation of the peninsula.
Besides Shakhtar, three other teams -- Metalurh Donetsk, Olimpik Donetsk and Zorya Luhansk -- are based in cities controlled by rebels. They will use stadiums in other cities because of the conflict.

Lima's excellent and diverse collection of museums serve as a road map to Peru's rich historical, cultural and archaeological past. Use this overview of the best Lima museums to decide which ones to visit during your trip to Peru.
Archaeologists date ancient Peruvian society as far back as the year 9,000 BC. A colorful mosaic of cultures, sometimes harmonious, sometimes interesting in their disharmony, once inhabited and occupied the land. Today, artifacts and monuments of Peru's ancient past scatter across different parts of the country, and trigger a sense of wonder and bewilderment in all who visit.
In most cases, journeyers to Peru first arrive in Lima. For many, this relatively modern city is simply a gateway to the Andes Mountains and Machu Picchu, but don't rule out at least a short visit to this under-appreciated metropolis. The superb restaurants and museums are two great reasons to spend more time. Spend part of your first day at one or more of these museums and learn more about the intriguing culture you are about to experience, or, if you have an evening flight back home on your last day in Peru, take some time during that day to explore a museum or two before having dinner and heading to the airport. We often arrange for a private driver for our travelers to visit one or more museums on their first or last day in Peru. Here are some of the highlights:
The renowned and manageable Larco Museum is in Lima's Pueblo Libre District, housed in an 18th century building that sits on the site of a 7th-century Pre-Columbian pyramid. The building also houses the privately-owned Larco Museum of Pre-Columbian Art. Visitors who pass thorough its doors travel 4,000 years of Peruvian Pre-Columbian art history.
The story of the Larco Museum unfolds in 1925, when Rafael Larco Herrera acquired a collection of 600 archaeological pieces from his brother-in-law. Herrera left his son, Larco Hoyle, in charge of the collection. Larco Hoyle purchased additional small collections, and opened a museum in Lima. The Larco Museum opened its doors on July 28, 1926.
A restaurant that serves Peruvian food, along with a gift shop selling handcrafted and llama and alpaca clothing complements the extensive galleries at the Larco Museum. Here are just a few of the museum's permanent exhibits:
In addition to its engrossing galleries, the Larco Musuem has special conservation galleries for its ancient textiles, metals and ceramics.
Housed in a brutalist-era concrete tower (originally a government ministry building during Peru's authoritarian period) the Museum of the Nation houses a variety of permanent exhibitions covering the full history of Peru's major pre-Colombian civilizations including artefacts from the Chavin, Moche, and Inca eras. Compared to the exhibits of ancient cultures found in the Larco Museum (see above) and the Archeology Museum (see below), the Museum of the Nation comes a distant second.
However, on the top floor is one of Lima's most fascinating and harrowing exhibitions; the Yuyanapaq gallery, which was created by Peru's Truth and Reconciliation Commission to document the long string of atrocities committed by both the government and revolutionaries during Peru's long and dark period of internal conflict between 1980 and 2000, when the Shining Path guerrillas were active in the country.
Yuyanapaq is a must-see for any visitor to Peru interested in learning more about a trauma that is still fresh in the minds of many Peruvians. The Museo de la Nacion can be found on Avenida Javier Prado Este in the San Borja district.
The National Museum of Anthropology, Archaeology and History, established in 1945, offers visitors a glimpse of its host country's complete cultural history. Spend part of the day wandering through its halls, and you will find exhibits ranging from prehistoric times to the present. This museum also serves as the administrative office for the National System of State Museums. Its staff members take pride in offering an archaeological showcase as well as a center for research and study. This is a big museum and it can be overwhelming, so you are best off picking a couple main periods and focusing on them during your hour or two visit rather than trying to pack it all in.
The permanent collection at the National Museum of Anthropology, Archaeology and History houses thousands of wood objects, tools, technologies, ceramics, textile, stones, metals, along with ancient musical instruments, and, on a more macabre note, remains of ancient human beings.
The museum staff skillfully arranged the collection in a thematic and chronological order, so that each culture, and each period in history has its own room. While most of the gallery space covers the pre-Columbian period, one section of the museum, known as the Liberators' Quinta, houses an 18th-century mansion of particular historical significance to Peruvians. Their most esteemed rebels, José de San Martín and Simón Bolívar, once occupied this house.
For those with a sense of the macabre, the Museum of Inquisition and Congress lurks within an old building of the National Senate. Its basement housed some of the torture chambers of the Spanish Inquisition. In addition to its torture chamber, this disturbingly realistic museum contains:
Like in so many of the world's civilizations, gold played a central role within Peru's pre-Colombian cultures where it was coveted not for its monetary value, but for its sheer beauty and its resemblance to the brilliant shine of Inti, the Sun God. The Inca would gold-plate entire temples, forge religious icons from the rare metal and even weave gold threads into their textiles. The vast majority of the ancient treasure was melted down into ingots and shipped to Spain during the conquest, however some artefacts remain a few of which can be seen in the Gold Museum, in Lima's Surco district.
South Americans seem to have a love affair with vintage cars, and Peru is no exception. The Museum of Jorge Nicolini displays 120 cars, manufactured between 1901 and 1973. These handsome vehicles were restored at the museums workshop. They now are all apparently in perfect running condition.
This is just a sampling of some of the museums to visit on your trip to Lima, Peru. Talk to the travel specialists at Vaya for more information on planning a vacation to Peru.

Facebook (NASDAQ:FB) is one of the most rapidly developing and innovating corporations in the world today. Throughout the last several years the company has identified several computing trends, and has shifted its policies towards monetizing those trends. One of the major shifts in consumer behavior has been a move to mobile computing. Smartphone saturation has been increasing rapidly across the developed world, and Facebook knows this better than anyone. Facebook took the time to develop quality mobile applications for a variety of operating systems, but has recently made a more aggressive move by altering the underlying code behind the omnipresent Android operating system. The result of its work is called Facebook Home.
Facebook Home isn't a piece of hardware or a special kind of phone. It's a free, optional download on the Google Play Store (the Android app store). Upon downloading, Facebook Home changes your phones function and heavily integrates it with Facebook.
While previously you may have had a regular lock screen on your phone, with Facebook Home you are presented with a live news feed about your friends and their activities. With one quick swipe you can open up Facebook Messenger, the website's popular chat program. Facebook Messenger completely bypasses "texting"; it processes your messages directly through Facebook, using data to transmit information rapidly between you and whomever you feel like speaking with.
Facebook Home also changes the home screen on any Android operating system. Normally you would see a grid of applications that you have installed, and whatever "widgets" you choose to place. With Facebook Home, there are 3 buttons that stay on top of your programs, allowing you to instantly "check-in" to a location, upload a photo, or update your Facebook status.
Facebook Home makes your phone that much more Facebook-friendly. The move to create a more streamlined, Facebook oriented interface isn't just a stab in the dark: it is backed by genuine consumer demand.
According to research firm eMarketer, Facebook mobile usage has been on an upward trend. eMarketer projects that over 100 million people will be using Facebook on their phones by 2014.
With increasing usage comes increasing advertising revenue. Although Facebook still generates most of its revenue from home computer usage, the amount of money that they make off of mobile advertising is on the upswing.
With these statistics it wouldn't make sense for Facebook to not make its own iteration of the Android operating system. People use Facebook on their phones, and they do so rabidly. Facebook Home should catch on with those that want to fully integrate the social network into their phone's operating system. The adoption will allow Facebook to mine data even better than before, as they will now have access to all of your mobile computing information.
With more data comes better advertisements. As any investor knows, advertisements are Facebook's lifeblood. The corporation essentially earns all of its revenue from taking people's data and monetizing it through well-targeted ads. With the recent introduction of Facebook AdX and Facebook Home, Facebook is taking serious steps to up its bottom line. The palpable aggression that is evident from the corporation's latest developments leads me to believe that they will continue to better monetize mobile and generate more profit. Going long Facebook is a safe bet.

Fresh off an excruciating 10-7 loss to Washington State on Saturday, USC is once again making headlines off the field.
According to Scott Wolf of the Los Angeles Daily News, star receiver Marqise Lee and linebackers Devon Kennard and Hayes Pullard spoke at a players-only meeting after the home defeat. However, head coach Lane Kiffin denied any notion of said meeting taking place:
Marqise Lee, Devon Kennard and Hayes Pullard spoke at players-only meeting that Lane Kiffin said did not take place #USC— InsideUSC (@InsideUSC) September 11, 2013
Lee reportedly responded to his coach's denial, per Wolf: "Kiffin don't know. Players [only]. Players. Kiffin don't know nothing about it. No coaches [were allowed]. We did have that meeting. … Now [Kiffin] knows."
Marqise Lee said Lane Kiffin incorrect about players only meeting not happening. "Kiffin don't know," Lee said #USC— InsideUSC (@InsideUSC) September 11, 2013
After a tweet from Kennard contradicting a players-only meeting, Lee also took to Twitter to dispute what he was quoted as saying:
If there was a "players only" meeting I wasn't there... Every coach and player we have is focused on one goal and that's winning this week!— Devon Kennard (@DevonKennard42) September 11, 2013
There was not a "players only meeting". Just regular get together with a few players about staying positive and moving forward #FightOn!— Marqise Lee (@TeamLee1) September 11, 2013
On Monday, Kiffin named redshirt sophomore Cody Kessler USC's starter for Saturday's game against Boston College, per Rich Hammond of the Orange County Register.
USC has named Cody Kessler as its starting quarterback.— Rich Hammond (@RegisterUSC) September 9, 2013
This was after Kiffin told the media he had an extensive meeting with sophomore Max Wittek about the quarterback situation on Sunday. According to Wolf, however, Wittek said the meeting was brief:
Max Wittek also contradicted Lane Kiffin. Said Kiffen very brief Sunday in meeting on QB decision. Kiffin said meeting extensive #USC— InsideUSC (@InsideUSC) September 11, 2013
What a mess.
Kiffin's job security was already shaky headed into the season. USC was ranked No. 1 in the nation in the AP preseason poll in 2012, but finished 7-6 with a loss to Georgia Tech in the Sun Bowl. After a loss to Washington State this year, Kiffin is definitely on the hot seat in Los Angeles.
Should Lane Kiffin be fired?
The Trojans rank 18th in the country in points per game allowed this season (11.5), but also rank 98th in points per contest (18.5). Kessler is currently 18-of-32 for 136 yards with one touchdown to two interceptions on the season. He also has a rushing touchdown. Wittek is 8-of-18 for 90 yards and an interception.
After ranking 24th in the country in the AP preseason poll, USC is no longer ranked after just two games. Worse yet, the team can't seem to go even a week without drama unfolding.

Garden buffet is great value and the food for $8.95(with player's card) for breakfast is pretty good. We have been to Vegas many times and really like this SouthPoint casino.
Leaving for home, so before we left hit the buffet for breakfast with my two boys. Had a great time
here. Got here around 9 in the morning. Got my slot card and the discount for all of us. Awesome
breakfast, omelet section was a hit with my boys. I had the pancakes and chow mien, nice as well as
the omelet station. Enjoyed the food and service from the staff. Got there early and very few people,
so we had a great time eating breakfast. Didn't have to stop on the way home to eat. Would eat here
The breakfast buffet was virtually empty this morning so turnover was a problem, but we were in a rush to catch our plane. I quickly downed OJ, fresh fruit with yogurt, easy over eggs, corned beef hash and some breakfast tatas. Everything was pretty good.
10/11 On our first morning in Las Vegas we chose the breakfast buffet at South Point. It was unusually busy for a Thursday morning due to an influx of cowboys attending a bovine sale as well as the start of the PBR finals. My breakfast included OJ, fresh fruit with strawberry yogurt, easy over eggs, a sliver of ham, bacon and a Tums. Everything was reasonably fresh. The meal was free using coupons from the funbook received at check-in.
We returned a week later for the luncheon buffet using a pair of free buffet coupons from an additional pair of funbooks. I enjoyed a few small cocktail shrimp, a tomato salad, one BBQ pork rib, a few tiny meatballs and a fresh fruit tart.
05/11 Dined twice at the breakfast buffet this trip. Quality and variety remain the same as in the past.
03/11 Our leisurely breakfast with friends lasted almost 2 hours during which I consumed a Bloody Mary, OJ, grapefruit with strawberry yogurt, carved ham and a huevo ranchero. Everything was fresh and good.
12/10 We were staying at the South Point so we ate at the breakfast buffet a total of 5 times during our 2 week stay. The food was consistently fresh and reliable. I would rate this as one of the better mid-priced buffets.
09/10 The breakfast buffet has been upgraded since our last visit and now includes a free Bloody Mary. We each enjoyed an OJ and fresh fruit with strawberry yogurt. The remainder of my meal included an odd, but tasty egg ranchero as well as a dollop of corned beef hash and some home fries.
OK,I am from San Francisco, home of the good food and bad prices. I moved to Vegas a couple of weeks ago and I have been to almost every buffet here. I went to the Rio's Village Buffet to get some good seafood, but the price tag was too high and the food was not as good as I anticipated. Then I went to Hot and Juicy in China Town (not a buffet, but highly rated), I was not impressed with their food or service. I mean you are talking to a person from "The Bay." I know good seafood when I eat it! I love the Garden Buffet at the South Point! I think I have been there 5-6 times since I moved here. They have all you can eat crawfish for $10/person (lunch). For dinner they have a free bottle of champagne w/ card. Their BBQ is so good, and their mexican food is the bomb. I love thier dessert bar. Italian cakes!!! This is my spot and you might catch me there from time to time. I am the one with a stack of crawfish and shells! Ha.
Good Meal better the a lot of strip buffets a lot better price
A great breakfast with the 241 on check in. A great selection. Even had carved beef and ham. Good choise. Beat the hell ot of MSS.
The selection at this buffet was very especially at the dessert section because you can choose items from a sugar free section which is good for thise who like sugar free desserts. The best thing about this buffet is that the price for every meal is very affordable for those who afre on tight budgets or want a cheap but good buffet.
I tried this buffet twice in the last week. The first visit was disastrous, but I returned for the Monday night Steak Night and was very surprised. Go on steak night. I think they have a different chef that day!
This is an average, simple American buffet that will appeal to picky types. There is a very good salad bar with all sorts of fresh ingredients and pasta / tuna salads. There is a large seafood area with peel and eat shrimp and very freezer burned fried seafood (shrimp, scallops and the like). The Mexican station has very good bean burritos but no tacos.
STAY AWAY from the made to order Mongolian grill. If you get this, leave out the meat! The meat is very, very poor and low quality. It is good if you only add vegetables. TRUST ME. The steak on steak night was actually very tender and very good! Desserts are abysmal, but the sugar free carrot cake is a real hit.
This buffet was very dirty too, and the clientele left a lot to be desired.

It's all a work in progress... From the code powering this blog to my career to my personal life, everything is a work in progress. Just like most projects you'll find bugs in all of these and I'll check stackoverflow to see if there are any easy fixes. My Personal Life I'm a son to two, a brother to six, an uncle to 4, a husband to 1 and a father to 1. I've got hobbies and opinions which I am sure to elaborate on later. Career I'm a co-founder and product guy who wants to make life easier people who work in operations at business the world over. You Ops folks know who you are, bear with me and I'll see what I can do. I've got a great team of co-founders and we've got great investors and great employees and we're strapped in for the ride. And finally, the Code If you run into issues reading this blog, good for you! Looking for a job in QA? The platform here is a work in progress that is really more of an exercise than a product. I like to write code and play with servers but as the company grows I move further away from the codebase so I need to keep in shape somehow. I also like the premise behind Material Design so this is also an exercise in coding for design and usability standards. Thanks in advance for bearing with any issues. Read more

Update: Jimmy has posted links to slide deck on his blog.
Update: For those who can't make it in person, a company called OneStream has kindly offered to do a live stream of the event. We're at the mercy of the hotel wi-fi, but hopefully you'll be able to catch it here: http://video.onestream.tv/production/view/124
Been a little while since we had our last meetup, but it'll be worth the wait! This month we are fortunate to have Jimmy Bogard in town and he's kindly offered to give us a talk on Real World Polyglot Persistence:
It always sounds easy – "use the best tool for the job". With very isolated systems, it's easy to decide RDBMS for one application, Redis for another and Cassandra for somethings else. When it comes time to building systems with multiple persistent stores, we're met with challenges in integration, existing applications, and push back from IT administrators. In this session, we'll look at the multitude of challenges of achieving polyglot persistence nirvana, and strategies for addressing associated risks.
Jimmy is a member of the ASPInsiders group, the C# Insiders group, and received the "Microsoft Most Valuable Professional" (MVP) award for ASP.NET in 2009-2012. Jimmy is also the creator and lead developer of the popular OSS library AutoMapper.
The talk will be on Thursday, November 29th, in the usual location: the Central Hotel on Exchequer St. at 6.30. Sorry about the short-ish notice this time.
The event is free as always thanks to our sponsors Beam, but don't forget to register if you plan on attending so we have an idea of the numbers.
This is one not to be missed. Hope to see you all there.

Make Sure Not To Miss Out On Our fabulous PUMA Giveaway!!!!!
Last night Lukus and I had the pleasure of attending the Absolut Vodka Orient Apple launch party. It was held at LA hotspot "The Beverly." The interior is gorgeous— just what you are looking for in a hot new club. I wish I could have gotten better photos of it, but alas that was not to be… however, the party itself hit all of the high notes: open bar, thematic décor, great music.
If you have a chance to try the Orient Apple Vodka, I suggest serving it on the rocks with a splash of soda.
Here are some of my favorite photos from the evening:
It was fun to get out for the evening with Lukus! Because he runs a club, sometimes he'd rather kickback in a more laidback environment. But this was a great change of pace!

The decay constant is
Since the half life of Carbon 14 is about T=5750 years, then we have:
Now, let A be the original amount.
27% remaining:
30% remaining:
in 1950, a research team digging near folsom, new mexico, found charred bison bones along with some leaf-shaped projectile points that had been made by a paleo-indian hunting culture. it was clear from the evidence that the bison had been coked and eaten by the makers of the points, so that carbon-14 dating of the bones made it possible for the researchers to determine when the hunters roamed North America. tests showed that the bones contained between 27% and 30% of their original carbon-14. use this information to show that the hunters lived roughly between 9000 BC and 8000 BC.
i know to use the equation y(t)= C*e^(kt)
where y represents the population at a given time, C represents the population, k represents the rate with respect to time, and t represents time
i also know that 1950, 27% and 30%, and 9000 and 8000 BC are important but i don't know what to do with them...especially since they are ranges and not exact numbers
That is derived from DE's. Just use it as an identity, so to speak. That is how to find k if you know half life. No need to derive it. We can do it, but I would just as soon not right now. You can porobably find its derivation in a calc book or some place.
You want to find the time it takes for half of the substance to decay, or when .
Substituting this into the equation, we have
Taking the natural log of both sides, we end up with .
This value is the half life of the substance. It is usually denoted by or .
As a result, the decay constant is .
Does this make sense?

By Danza Johnson/NEMS Daily Journal
TUPELO – It costs only $5 to get an inspection sticker for your vehicle but it can cost $125 if you're caught without it.
Inspection stickers are decals for your windshield that let the Mississippi Highway Patrol know a vehicle has passed a safety inspection.
Only a state trooper can write a citation for an expired inspection sticker with the exception of the Natchez Trace Parkway, where a ranger has the authority.
Trooper Ray Hall said inspection sticker tickets are common. He said many people think it's a secondary offense – meaning a trooper can't stop a motorist just for an expired sticker and has to have a primary reason like speeding in order to make the stop. Not true. Troopers can and often do stop motorists just for having expired stickers.
Even though they are not very big and are placed in the bottom left corner of your windshield doesn't mean a trooper passing by can't see it. Just like car tags, the stickers are color coded.
"They only cost $5 so it's simple and cheap to just go and get a sticker from someone who is certified to issue them rather than having to pay a large fine for not having one," said Hall.
But nowadays finding certified inspectors is not as easy as it once was. When he started 20 years ago, Bennie Hankins of Hankins Service Center in Tupelo said you could pull into almost any service station in town and get an inspection sticker. But that's no longer the case.
"There is no money in inspection stickers and it's really a hassle," said Hankins. "We get $3 for each one and the state gets the other $2. After going out to inspect the vehicle and make sure it meets inspection, you've spent more than $3 worth of time. I continue to do it as a service to my customers and that's important to me."
Hankins also performs tint inspections, which also costs $5, but he only receives $2 for those.
Tom's Automotive in Tupelo also does vehicle inspections. Melody Curtis, a Tom's employee, said some of the equipment required to do tint inspections may be the reason some businesses have gotten out of the inspection sticker business. Despite the low costs of the actual sticker, Curtis said there is potential for a business to make a little money.
"Sometimes if a vehicle is not up to inspection the person has to get that problem fixed and they will let us fix it for them," she said. "That is one way we can get some extra money from an inspection. But very few people fail inspection so we don't get that money very often."
You have exactly one business day after the sticker is expired to get it renewed. If that day falls on a weekend or holiday, three days are given.
Hall said just because you get a ticket for an expired sticker doesn't mean you have to pay it. If the sticker is updated before the court date, the fee can be waived.

I hope you enjoy this post from my friends at BPA Quality: "The Monster Living In Your Contact Center".
Does a MONSTER live in your Contact Center?
This MONSTER consists of uncalibration, lack of constant coaching, animosity toward QA and nit picking. The Monster is easily created, especially if the contact center is in survival mode. The Contact Center Monster is a Quality Program that is scary enough to cause Shelley to turn in her Quill.
Grab your pitchforks and torches because here is how you catch and destroy that Contact Center Nightmare.
First weapon of defense is getting the buy-in of all agents, supervisors and management teams to the Quality Program. The posse needs to join together and provide a unified mob. A lot of centers make the mistake of creating an us VS. them (QA VS. managers and Agents) mentality. The bigger the mob, the stronger it can be.
Next weapon is Calibration! Ok – so, that is another monster, but listening and relying on great tools…

Our grants in action
Supporting STEM education – and Champ (the German shepherd)
Jobs in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) are expected to grow 17 percent in the US by 2018, yet less than 20 percent of students are choosing STEM-related paths in school. It's estimated that the U.S. may be short by three million high-skilled workers in 2018.
Since 2007, the Motorola Solutions Foundation has provided more than $40 million in education grants to elementary, secondary and postsecondary STEM programs.
One of these recipients is the Consortium of Florida Education Foundations (CFEF). Motorola Solutions Foundation and CFEF work together to support teachers and innovative school programs that highlight the benefits of careers in engineering and technology to students.
One of the schools chosen to receive support from the Motorola Solutions Foundation was Flagler Palm Coast High School's i3 New Tech Academy in Florida. With this support, teachers engaged students in a competition to research and design a prosthetic leg for a dog named Champ who was wounded in a car accident. The goal of the competition was to show students how design and engineering can be used to improve the world around them.
After consulting with engineers, veterinarians and others, teams of students worked together to come up with different designs that would help Champ live a fuller, more comfortable life.
Stepping up for community-police relationships
In 2015, the Motorola Solutions Foundation, in partnership with the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP), launched the Institute for Community Police Relations to help communities and law enforcement agencies across the U.S. strengthen trust and collaboration, while continuing to reduce crime. With financial support from the Motorola Solutions Foundation, the institute is focused on implementing recommendations from the 2015 White House Task Force Report on 21st Century Policing.
"Building and maintaining community trust is the cornerstone of successful policing and the generous backing provided by Motorola Solutions Foundation enables the Institute for Community-Police Relations to provide that support to state, local and tribal law enforcement," said IACP's President, University of Central Florida Police Chief Richard Beary.
The Institute will work on identifying the most effective ways law enforcement and certain communities can work together to improve communication, increase understanding and reduce crime. Then, the Institute will share those programs with other law enforcement departments around the country.
Fire safety: Helping the Red Cross save lives in Africa
For two years, the Motorola Solutions Foundation has worked alongside American Red Cross chapters across the U.S. on a national fire preparedness campaign to reduce U.S. home fire deaths and injuries by 25 percent. The Motorola Solutions Foundation is now expanding our support to fund innovative initiatives in Africa to prevent fires and help train firefighters.
With support from the Motorola Solutions Foundation, the American Red Cross and International Red Cross are improving technologies in Africa that help disaster prevention and relief. To meet the unique needs of these communities, the Red Cross and Red Crescent partnered with two fire sensor manufacturers and a dozen companies to improve sensor technology for use in informal housing settlements. In 2015, they began installing the low-cost, smart fire alarms in thousands of homes across settlements in Nairobi, Kenya and Cape Town, South Africa.
We also support the Africa Fire Mission, a nonprofit organization in the United States that delivers gently used equipment and much-needed training to fire departments in Africa. Africa Fire Mission and its team of experienced firefighters have trained and equipped firefighters in Nairobi, Kenya with support from the Motorola Solutions Foundation.

To the Editor:
The Gahanna Lincoln High School drama students, who are planning to travel to Edinburgh, Scotland, to perform in the 2013 Fringe Festival, had an overwhelmingly successful spaghetti dinner and auction fundraiser on Sunday, Feb. 24. The event was held in the cafeteria at Gahanna Lincoln High School and raised approximately $5,000. These proceeds will help to defray the cost of each student's trip.
We would like to take the opportunity to thank the Gahanna community, parents and families who attended, as well as Gahanna-area businesses that made substantial contributions by donating food and beverages. The businesses contributing to the success of this event were Rotelli's, the Chocolate Tree, Mykonos Taverna & Bakery, Tim Hortons, Golden Delight Bakery, Kroger, Cap City Diner, WesBanco and Java's.
The Gahanna Community Theatre showed its support by presenting a generous donation to help the "GLHS Thespian Group" get to Scotland.
We wish to thank all of those who attended and ask that they continue to support the GLHS drama program in its efforts to make this once-in-a-lifetime trip a reality.
Scotland or Bust!

Now we know why restaurants seem to be in a virtual arms race to offer more brands of beer in bottles and on tap than their competitors. The more choices you give your customers, the more beer they will buy. And you don't have to operate a gastropub or sports bar to get in on the action.

If your envelope contains 1 dollar, then tossing the coin once gives you 1.5 which is more than 1 so switching will give you an envelope with a positive number different from 1, which is by def. greater than 1. So it works for the smallest case.
If your envelope contains 2 dollars, then there is a chance that the other one contains 1 dollar, but (on the face of it) a bigger chance that there is more in the other envelope. However, there is a 50% chance of a head on the first throw and therefore there's a 50% chance you'll not switch.
Goodness this is making my head hurt ... I'd need to think about it harder and dig out some of the probability maths that I've forgotten.

Ebates: A Rising Star in the Coupon and Bargain Space
Image from: Frugal Living When I first heard of Ebates.com, I was skeptical. I thought to myself, "it pays to shop, really?!" Well the joke was pleasantly on me when I received my first check. After all, although a business model where an affiliate shares profits with customers as an incentive isn't the most intuitive, it makes sense. Given that I've been hearing quite a bit of positive buzz about Ebates from friends and

Fantasy Guru Daily: 5/23/11
Another weekend has come and gone, and unfortunately, the lockout did not get raptured. We are still here, and so is the lockout, but we are getting closer to the June 3 day in court in St. Louis.
[Insert clichés about competition here] … You've got to play them one day at a time. I'm just happy to be here; hope I can help the ball club. I just want to give it my best shot, and the good Lord willing, things will work out.
Perhaps Jaguar QB David Garrard is the new Crash Davis, as he brought out the clichés – and acknowledged it – when discussing his upcoming quarterback battle with rookie 1st-round pick Ebby Calvin "Nuke" LaLoosh …. or, uh, Blaine Gabbert.
Said Garrard, according to The Florida Times-Union: "My thing is the best man will play. The cream will rise to the top. All those different sayings. That's true, you want the best person out there on the field to give the team the best chance. That's what I believe. If it's not me, then it's just not me. If Blaine comes in and he is above and beyond just better than me, then best of luck to him. Because the best person is going to give this team a chance to win should be out there. I've always believed that. I'm going to work my tail off to make sure that it's me. I'm sure he'll be working hard as well."
Garrard went on to say that he and Gabbert talk, and it's going to be difficult for Gabbert to make a quick transition, especially because of the lockout. That's definitely true, and it would be surprising to see anyone but Garrard under center when the Jaguars take the field in Week One. As inconsistent as he is, he's far from the worst starting QB option in the league, and he gives the Jaguars a chance to win. With that said, if he struggles and the team struggles early, don't be surprised if Gabbert gets a shot in the middle of the season. Of course, the Jaguars face plenty of uncertainty overall, as the receiving corps desperately needs veteran help (Mike Thomas, Jason Hill, and rookie Cecil Shorts are the top options with Mike Sims-Walker likely heading elsewhere) and HC Jack Del Rio is on the hot seat.
The longer the lockout goes on, the more difficult it will be for a rookie QB to play early in his career. The presence of Garrard puts the Jaguars in a better position than teams like Minnesota (Christian Ponder), Cincinnati (Andy Dalton), and especially Carolina (Cam Newton), where rookie QBs may be pressed into action from the start anyway. Still, Gabbert is the future in Jacksonville, and if the season doesn't go well – and, let's face it, there's a good chance that's the case – plenty of people, both inside and outside the organization, will want to see the promising young QB in action.
And if Gabbert wins the job and you want to wish him well, candlesticks make a nice gift.
Players call NFL a "cartel" … The NFLPA filed its arguments with the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals in St. Louis minutes before Friday night's deadline. The filing is more of the same rhetoric, saying the league has violated antitrust laws and players suffer irreparable harm from the lockout. In addition, the players decided to describe the NFL as a "cartel," and they also received support from the MLB, NHL, and NBA players' unions. In other words, we've been hearing most of the same arguments for months, and it would be great if everyone shut up and got a deal done. But, again, right now the important date is June 3, when the hearing will take place for the NFL's appeal of Judge Susan Nelson's lockout injunction. Unfortunately, after the stay ruling, all signs are pointing to a league victory that would prevent the lockout from being lifted.
Quick Hits
- Speaking of Christian Ponder, he said he's talked to Viking teammates about working out in Florida. The Vikings have not yet worked out as a group. The good news is Ponder received a playbook during the brief period in which the lockout was lifted.
- WR Braylon Edwards reiterated that he'd like to re-sign with the Jets after a fairly productive 2010 season as the team's deep threat alongside Santonio Holmes. Edwards attended Mark Sanchez's informal camp in California, and the Jets may have a decision to make with Holmes, Edwards, and Brad Smith all set for free agency.
- Patriot WR Wes Welker said he's feeling a lot healthier, and he's also not really worried about 2011 being the last year of his contract.

Good night, Irene, good night
Great! I had forgotten all about those guys! My fave cover of Papa Ooh Mow Mow was by the Beach Boys in a live concert recording from '64 or '65 iirc.
The Rivingtons did it best
Oh the memories. I loved those songs.
These guys used that line,too.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRtMUrhtk0A
I'm showing my age. This was a favorite of mine when I was a kid. An all-time classic.
Benny Goodman, "Sing Sing Sing":
I still have the original 45. They played it at my birthday party. We even had a special dance for it. Life is good!
Kids nowadays just don't understand good music.
Rock N Roll's been going downhill ever since Buddy Holly died.
The Fleetwoods
Awesome, thanks. Caught this guy on Huckabee the other day. Dion and the Belmonts singing Runaround Sue. Great beat as they used to say on American Bandstand.
Whenever a aged hippie talks to me about Woodstock and how meaningful it was, I always like to remind him/her that Sha Na Na played there, where they were followed on stage by jimi Hendrix. Sort of puts the whole "Three Days of Peace and Music" thing in perspective.
That's Mama Oom Mow Mow - differtent song, same album. I hae the original 45 RPM of Papa Oom Mow Mow in my archives.
Buddy's dead? Why didn't somebody tell me?
(He played a J-45 when he wasn't playing his Stratocaster; and yes, I've left a guitar pick at his grave in Lubbock. Twice. Hasn't everyone?).
A novelty from 1962. You came up with a collector's item.
Yep. Richie Valens, the Big Bopper, Ricky Nelson, Elvis, The Volumes....
Wait—maybe some of the Volumes are still alive.
They all had one. Old records that were no longer on display out front, and they were willing to sell them for next to nothing.
Nothing like buying Buddy Holly albums in the original cello wrap in 1974, or original 45s of Dion and the Belmonts. Or original Maddox Brothers and Sister Rose albums. Or original 78s of Kay Kyser and his Kollege of Musical Knowledge, featuring Sully, Ginny, Harry and Ish Kabibble singing Three Little Fishies.
I need to leave this thread before I go to the basement and start pulling out boxes and boxes of 45s, 78s, and LPs.
Fletcher Henderson & His Orchestra had a hit in 1936 with an earlier (but not the original) version of "Sing, Sing, Sing (With a Swing)!" The lyrics make references to hits of the day, such as Riley & Farley's "The Music Goes 'Round and 'Round" and Cab Calloway's 1931 hit "Minnie the Moocher." Listen to it here:
The Andrews Sisters:
In 1947, four years after this Delta Rhythm Boys hit, Waring's Pennsylvanians gave "Dry Bones" the Spike Jones treatment, with sound effects. Listen to it here.
J. P. (Jiles Perry) Richardson. Disc jockey at KTRM in Beamont, Texas (neighboring Port Arthur gave us Janis Joplin). He wrote "White Lightning", recorded by George Jones as his first #1, and "Running Bear" for Johnny Preston (from Sabine Pass, TX, where Richardson was born).
The Big Bopper had the flu that night, and Waylon Jennings, who was playing bass for Buddy Holly, gave up his seat. Richardson died along with Holly, Ritchie Valens (who won a coin flip with Tommy Allsup) and pilot Roger Peterson.
Sorry, when it involves Texas, old music trivia, and Charles Hardin Holley (he dropped the 'e' professionally), I get carried away.
Yeah, I remember that version, too. Sounds very familiar when I listen to it now. As you say, it was 1936, not 1927 as YouTube says.
The Goodman version is partly adlibbed, as was their custom. After Benny comes in, the whole band picks up his revised theme.

Doctors diagnose attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder far less often in black and Latino children than in their white counterparts, new research has found.
The news has experts calling for better recognition and treatment of the disorder in minority kids.
The researchers, led by Paul L. Morgan of Penn State University, used data from a national study of 17,100 children who started kindergarten in 1998. It followed the children through eighth grade.
The researchers worked to eliminate any outside explanations — such as socioeconomic status and birth weight — and found that blacks were 69 percent less likely to receive an ADHD diagnosis than whites. Latino children were half as likely, and ADHD in children of other races and ethnicities was 46 percent lower.
Among minority children who did have diagnosed ADHD, fewer were receiving treatment than white children with the disorder. The research was published this month in the journal Pediatrics.
Morgan said the study clearly points to some kind of race-based difference in diagnosis.
What's at play beyond that is unclear. This study relied on parents' reporting of whether they'd been told their child had the disorder. It did not, and could not, get to the heart of what is happening in schools, at home and in doctors' offices.
Other research offers some possible theories.
Cultural barriers might prevent open and informative conversations in pediatricians' offices. Minority parents might be more reluctant to share symptoms with their child's doctor."Parents are naturally anxious about their child receiving medications and being over-diagnosed, and that's a valid concern," Morgan said.
There's also the question of whether the disorder is diagnosed in too many white children, more than actually have it. That's something Morgan and his colleagues acknowledge in their study and something he doesn't discount.
That said, he doesn't think that explanation accounts for all of the disparity.
Morgan said he is concerned about the children who have ADHD and are going without treatment, which can include medication and/or therapy. Teachers and parents also can adjust how they interact with children with the disorder.
Delayed diagnosis or no diagnosis can contribute to problems lasting into adulthood, including poor academic performance and substance abuse, he said.
Dr. Daniel Coury, the chief of developmental and behavioral pediatrics at Nationwide Children's Hospital, shared Morgan's concern about the apparent gap in ADHD diagnoses in minority children.
"We've never seen anything that suggests that white children are at a greater risk for ADHD, or African-American or Hispanic children are at lower risk," he said.
Cultural-sensitivity training for physicians and other health-care providers has been increasingly emphasized in recent years, Coury said, and is likely to improve barriers to proper diagnosis.
"It's important for white physicians — for all physicians — to be more culturally aware," he said.
"This is just another sign of the many disparities that we have in our medical-care system."

Cheveley Park, Sun Chariot fields taking shape
Winning Express, trained by Ed McMahon, is one of the 15 fillies engaged for the Group 1, �163,500 Cheveley Park at Newmarket on Saturday after she was supplemented Monday at a cost of �15,000.
The daughter of Camacho is unbeaten in two starts and scored by a comfortable 1 1/4 lengths from Jadanna in the Dick Poole Fillies' Stakes at Salisbury over six furlongs on September 6. She had previously come from an unfavorable position at Sandown to win by a half-length when making her debut over five furlongs on August 9.
"Winning Express has been fine since she won at Salisbury," said McMahon, who trains in Staffordshire. "She didn't necessarily surprise me with her performance there because she won very nicely at Sandown before that -- not many fillies come from where she did to win at Sandown on debut. When she won the Dick Poole Stakes, everything went right for her and she won accordingly. I was very pleased with her performance.
"She has always been a very professional filly which is why she has won first and second time out. Her work at home has always been very good and we backed her into favoritism at Sandown which you don't do unless you think they know what they are doing.
"If you look back in history, Rae Guest won the Cheveley Park with Serious Attitude after she won the Dick Poole and you could go for a Group 3 but it's late on in the season and Winning Express has only run twice. The form of the race at Salisbury is very strong and it was a truly run race so I think she deserves to take her chance in the Cheveley Park given she hasn't done anything wrong this year.
"I don't think she would want extremes of ground and she would probably go on going a fraction slower than good but ideally she would want it quicker than good to be at her best."
Those going forward for the six-furlong contest include the Irish-trained Sendmylovetorose, who denied Maureen, from Richard Hannon's powerful team, by a neck in the Group 2 Cherry Hinton at Newmarket's July Festival.
Group 2 Queen Mary scorer Ceiling Kitty is one of two confirmations for trainer Tom Dascombe, while the unbeaten Group 2 Lowther heroine Rosdhu Queen remains engaged for Newmarket handler William Haggas.
The Gold Cheongsam, a valuable sales race winner at Doncaster last time September 13, needs the ground to stay on the fast side and the current wet spell is unwelcome for connections.
"I was delighted with her performance at Doncaster, because she won a competitive race on ground which was far from ideal for her," trainer Jeremy Noseda said.
"When horses do that, you know they are in good nick and to me the ideal ground for her would be firm ground. We don't get that very often nowadays, but that would be what she really wants. She did a piece of work the other day and I feel she is at the top of her game. I'm just keeping my fingers crossed for faster ground come Saturday and, hopefully, we'll get a big piece of the pie. She's a tough genuine filly and she gets better, but the ground is going to be crucial to our chance."
Other notable entries include Italian stakes winner Sandreamer and Michael Bell's Hoyam, while Aidan O'Brien could saddle Snow Queen and Infanta Branca.
Saturday's card is a cracker with two Group 1s, a Group 2 and the Cambridgeshire Handicap.
Beauty Parlour could have her first race since joining Sir Henry Cecil's team in the Group 1 Sun Chariot for fillies and mares at one mile. Formerly trained in France by Elie Lellouche and owned by Ecurie Wildenstein, Beauty Parlour was second in the Group 1 Prix de Diane on her latest start in June.
Cecil has also left in recent Group 1 Matron winner Chachamaidee, for which there are 11 fillies remaining following the confirmation stage. Francois Doumen's Siyouma is the sole French-trained entry while there are three possible Irish challengers in the shape of Dermot Weld's Emulous, Aidan O'Brien's Up and La Collina from Kevin Prendergast's yard.
Richard Hannon holds a strong hand in the Group 2 Royal Lodge for two-year-old colts with the unbeaten Toronado and Havana Gold still engaged. Toronado won the Group 2 Champagne at Doncaster last time out while Havana Gold, who unseated Ryan Moore in France, has won all his other three starts.
The three-day Cambridgeshire Festival starts Thursday.

Hmmmmmmm good question Karol.
I didn't have to intervene, the OP blog owner removed it apparently (good choice btw).
So, after reading this post...I realized that these don't quite cover NSFW content....
#2 Blogs should be Arch related, you need to have some arch content, if not ... go use blogger. Obviously your not my target user.
#9 Unethical behavior will get your account suspended or closed, totallyat the discretion of the Site Administrators. (yea, that'd be me)
So, I'll spell it out as plainly as I can.
If you want to post NSFW content....do it on some other blog, I will delete the content I find that fits that definition for the slow people that need to be spoon fed...that means NO PRON of any type, period, and I won't warn you prior (i don't have time to mess with the crap people, most of you are adults, and I expect you to behave like one even if your not, if your posting on the blogs). If I have to repeatedly delete crap....trust me, i'll just delete your account instead, without warning, without asking, without explanation, without backing up your content (you can do that yourself already), without any remorse... i simply don't have time to screw around with stupid stuff, and have no qualms about removing habitual offenders. So... I hope that answers that question
Honestly, I think that was the one and only instance of nsfw since i started the blog a couple years ago..so not a bad track record Archers are the best!!
Hey crouse, email sent
Hey....... months later... I appear....... blog finally made (if you still want it), You should have email.
Too late to apply? Emailed you.
Not to late, I'm just very slow... Email sent with login information.
Sorry for the delays in getting these setup folks, I'm just swamped at work and home, and literally have very little time to work on my fun stuff I will attempt to keep up a bit better. (i keep saying that ...sigh)
Updated wordpress and themes and plugins tonight, so it's all bright and shiney again
