Whitney Mercilus Scouting Report
By Charlie Campbell
- Raw speed to turn the edge
- Agility to sink his hips/shoulder
- Strength
- Repertoire of moves
- Active hands
- Has the strength to anchor and hold his ground vs. the run
- Always looking to force fumbles
- Quick get off
- Shedding blocks when pass rushing
- Ability to bull rush heavy tackles and guards
- Extremely athletic
- One-year wonder
- Lacks complete body of work in college
- Quality of tackles he faced
Summary: Whitney Mercilus was the most productive pass-rusher in college football in 2011. He led the nation in sacks (16) and forced fumbles (9). It was a record-setting season as Mercilus topped Simeon Rice's school record for sacks in a year. Like Rice, Mercilus is a fabulous athlete. He has a special combination of size, speed and strength to go along with excellent technique. Mercilus also recorded 57 tackles and 22.5 tackles for a loss.
Entering the NFL, Mercilus is an advanced pass-rusher. He got the better of the best tackles he faced this season. Against Ohio State's Mike Adams, Mercilus recorded 1.5 sacks with a forced fumble. The Wisconsin Badgers' powerful offensive line couldn't contain Mercilus. He bull rushed through massive right tackle Josh Oglesby to get a sack-fumble on Russell Wilson. Mercilus also knocked out left tackle Ricky Wagner for part of the game.
Mercilus has a very impressive repertoire of pass rushing moves. He attacks with speed around the edge. As a counter to the speed, he has the strength to execute rip moves and shed offensive linemen. Mercilus has the raw power to get under offensive linemen's pads and bull rush into the pocket. That catches linemen by surprise as they are so cognizant of being ready for his speed rush. Beyond his great physical skill set, Mercilus is an advanced pass-rusher technically.
Mercilus holds up well in run defense. Linemen don't push him around, as he is strong at the point of attack. He also will burst into the backfield to disrupt running plays.
The big question regarding Mercilus is why didn't break into the lineup sooner and why didn't he produce more earlier. In 2009 and 2010, Mercilus combined to record 24 tackles with two sacks and 6.5 tackles for a loss.
Player Comparison: Jason Pierre-Paul. There are a lot of similarities between Mercilus and JPP. Both are fantastic athletes who come to the NFL with a special combination of speed and strength. They also were one-year wonders at the college level. Mercilus had more production than JPP in their final college season, and the latter has turned into one of the best pass-rushers in the NFL.
Right now, it looks like Mercilus should get drafted in the same range as JPP. However, it is possible that Mercilus will be this year's Aldon Smith and surprise some by cracking the top 10. It is not out of the question for him to pass North Carolina's Quinton Coples in the lead up to the 2012 NFL Draft. JPP did that with Derrick Morgan in 2010. Projecting Mercilus to the pros, I see a player similar to Pierre-Paul.
NFL Matches: Jacksonville, Chicago, San Diego, New York Jets, Buffalo, Cleveland, Detroit
What team couldn't use another pass-rusher? Mercilus has the athletic ability to be a stand-up edge-rusher in 3-4 defenses, and that opens him up to consideration from a lot of teams. He looks like a natural right defensive end in a 4-3 defense who will challenge left tackles.
The Jaguars will have the first crack at Mercilus, and they need an edge rusher. Buffalo, San Diego and the Jets are all 3-4 defenses that need to find a player who can put heat on the quarterback. If Mercilus gets past all of those teams, he could end up in Chicago. They need some young talent for their defense. It would be a significant fall for Mercilus to get to the Browns' second first-round selection, but they could use an end to complete their young front four. The Lions almost took a defensive end last year, and if they don't re-sign Cliff Avril, they might consider trading up to land Mercilus.
[/quote]Who is Charlie Campbell? Not a knock on Mercilus, but to compare him to JPP is just ridiculous.
[/quote] Why is it ridiculous? Hes not saying hes gonna be JPP but hes saying he is a good comparison of where Whitney could be if everything works out Hes also comparing him to JPP because like JPP Whitney is a one yr wonder who came outta nowhere and will likely fly up draft boards as the draft approaches Hes a sensational prospect and don't fall for Whitney being what hes talked about now because trust me when the draft is here Whitney will be going in the pick 15-23ish of the 1st round
[/quote]IDK Sportzfan, I haven't watched enough on him so I really can't speak but just by reading all different kinds of scouting reports he seems like a classic "boom or bust" type of guy. Like I said, I keep up w/ the ACC & SEC guys down here in Florida so I don't know enough to pass judgement on the guy. Do you really want to take that risk in the 1st round w/ Mercilus? If he's projected to go somewhere in the 15-23 overall range, then that makes him a bargain for the Giants, right? Check out this article Rob Rang wrote up on Mercilus. http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/s...t-firstrounder
[/quote] Welp, i think the combine showed that Mercilus is pretty athletic, just as i said.. Also, as i was saying for months, hes gonna be a riser come draft time, and i think this combine performance gurantees him a top 20-25 pick, and possibly a bit earlier.. I knew he wasen't gonna be going in RD 2 or wherever some of these sites had him going a month ago...
Whitney Mercilus, DE/OLB, Illinois
Whitney Mercilus showed off his athleticism in Indianapolis. He ran a 4.63 with a 1.56 10-yard split and also notched a 32-inch vertical. He really impressed in the drills, solidifying his top-25 status.
[/quote]Umm, I remember this post from like early January, you must be trying to prove something, I'm confused. What's the point of this post?
[/quote] Yeah I never said he wasnt a First Rounder, I think his value is on the borderline of the first /2nd round. All I said is his game doesnt remind me of JPP or Aldon Smith. Always thought he was a good player.I dont remember anyone saying he wasnt. Just so U know though Sportzfan the Draft advisory board gave him a 3rd round grade.[/quote]Well said, he went back to early January to dig this post up and for what? If he was trying to call me out or make me look like as a**, he obviously failed. Looks like you shot yourself in your own foot pal.
[/quote]Trust me, u don't need me to make yourself look like a ***, u do a good enough job of that on your own.. I brought this post up, because I was apart of it, not u.. I'll bring up any post i want, and if i could, i'd bring up posts from 2yrs ago as well.. I've been a avid contributor to the draft boards on here for yrs now, contributing as much, and if not more then anyone, so i'll do as i feel, thank u very much..
I brought this paticular post up because Whitney showcased himself at the combine, looking very good in the drills, and very fluid, as well as clocking a very nice 40 and 10yrd split, a second faster then Shea McClellins... I was saying for 2months now, that the guy was gonna be a riser the closer the draft gets, when the so called "draft advisory" adn many others were to blind to see it and had him going mid 2nd to late 2nd, and some 3rd rd...And i also said, hes pretty athletic, and it seemed most who thought he was not, and was just a "high motor" type DE, who also displayed good strength.. The bottom line is hes a All around DE who i thought would show off at the combine, and solitify himself as a 1st rder, and hes done just that.. That is why i brought this post up.. It had nothing to do with you, except that u happened to respond.. So get over yourself...

Probably, it wouldn't be worth the effort to plug the bore just ahead of the chamber...
Check the muzzle too.
If the chamber is chromed, does that mean the barrel is too ?????
Probably, it wouldn't be worth the effort to plug the bore just ahead of the chamber...
Check the muzzle too.
There were some ar15/m16 barrels that only had a chromed chamber.
It seems stupid to me too. Here's a thread on it over at ar15.com complete with pic's. 0Colt's USGI M16 series variation guide edition IV - AR15.COM
There used to be a difference between the two terms, but for anything made since the 1950's, the terms are interchangeable....
Chrome lining a chamber is less critical dimension-wise than chrome lining a bore. Also, chrome is expensive, so just lining the chamber was thought to be an extravagance that was not needed. Side note: This is one reason why the SMLE rifles were so successful and reliable, the Brits maintained the tapered .303 rimmed case design simply because it seals, and extracts more easily than a straight walled case.
Anyway, research has shown that chrome lined chambers are nearly worthless unless the barrel is lined as well. The M-16 is about the only rifle I can think of that is an exception to that rule, the main issue that was being addressed as a flaw was extraction, and so Colt did produce many 10s of 1000s of barrels that have a chrome chamber, but not a chrome barrel. We used to run across those and some of the original non-chromed barrels at Lackland AFB. OCS had lots of them. Most were easy to distinguish since they also had no forward-assist. As you can search out and read, the M-16A1 spec. includes a chrome lined chamber and bore. The original M-16 spec (if you can find it) does not.
I digress.
There are simple visual checks that can verify a chromed bore and chamber, but if the bore has excessive wear, the chrome may be gone as well.
Imagine whirled peas
Peace, Love, And Superior Firepower
we got a small batch of CAR and m-16 barrels transferred to us from the USAF back in 89 as replacement parts--some slab side m-16s and CARs too boot. i think the non-chromed barrels and chromed chamber only barrels had the same status as the chrome plated bolts and carriers which was training only. some were molded into the much hated rubber-duck non-rifle m-16 training device. imagine some boot giving up a 100 push-ups to a DI for dropping the rubber-duck and you get the hated part!
this was the only ones i have ever seen. and i think they were exclusive to the early to mid 1960s

Lots of killing this weekend at the Box Office. Both new movies were killtaculars… the mob movie "Killing Them Softly" featured a couple of hits, and the story revolved around the planning and prep of said hits, while "The Collection" basically showcases a psychopath busy slaughtering.
Murder, and lesser violence, is a big part of film. Danger sets up suspense, and there's no bigger danger than the loss of life. Thus it winds up making its way into the movies frequently.
Today, we'll take a trip to the dark side and discuss our favorite instances of murder on film. It's such a huge part of film, there should be NO shortage of potential answers. From classics (such as the "Psycho" shower scene or the strangulation of Luca Brasi), to the comedic (I have to confess, "American Psycho" cracks me up) to the contemporary (hey never too early for "The Collection" to make the cut!) there will be hundreds and hundreds of potential answers to choose from.
Who's a sickie? Who really wants to play today? Anyone with guilt issues want to object? Let's hear it! What's YOUR favorite movie murder?!

Colloquium organizer Assistant Professor Mariela Rodriguez
Education college hosts bilingual ed seminar
By Kris Rodriguez
Public Affairs Specialist
(May 21, 2009)--The UTSA College of Education and Human Development will host a bilingual research education symposium from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., Saturday, May 23 in Main Building Room 0.212 on the UTSA Main Campus. The event is free and open to the public.
Today's headlines
- La Prensa Foundation is newest member of UTSA Lone Star Society
- UTSA alumna Jordan Kaufmann wins $50K for new stent-graft start-up
- UTSA begins new way-finding sign installation this summer at Main Campus
- USA Today: UTSA long jumper Tyler Williamson rescues three-year-old boy

At the symposium, "Working Together for English Language Learners Merging Theory with Practice," COEHD faculty, graduate students and recent doctoral students will share research on bilingual education and effective instructional practices for English learners.
"I think this is a great recruiting tool for UTSA, so area teachers can see what programs are available in education and for graduate degree options," said Mariela Rodriguez, UTSA assistant professor of educational leadership and policy studies. "Our main goal is for teachers, administrators and others who attend to participate in the academic discourse about what works for English learners in Texas."
The half-day event will feature 15 presenters discussing educational issues in three breakout sessions. Discussion topics will include Looking at Teachers and English Language Learners, Dual Language Education, Effective Leadership Practices for Bilingual Students and Latino Students in Higher Education.
The symposium is one of 12 proposals approved this spring as part of the UTSA Provost's Core Values Initiative. The initiative fosters UTSA's core values of integrity, excellence, inclusiveness, respect, collaboration and innovation.
Eligible to receive up to $1,500 in funding, proposals could include workshops, performances or programs highlighting any of the six characteristics listed in the initiative.
Faculty interested in the core values initiative for fall 2009 can submit proposals through their respective deans' and vice provost offices to Terry Wilson at (210) 458-4110. The deadline for fall 2009 proposals is Sept. 1.

The top 10 garden trimmers
Make trimming your lawn edges a pleasure with one of our top 10 strimmers for 2014.
Grass trimmers, or strimmers, are one of the most useful tools in a gardener's repertoire. Crucial for creating a neat edge to a lawn after it's been mown or trimming hard-to-reach areas, they range from bargain basement prices to the eye-wateringly expensive.
When buying a trimmer, there are several things to consider. Firstly, the size of your garden will affect what cutting width you need: the bigger the width, the more grass the trimmer can clear in one go. Secondly, think about your power source.
Electric models are easy to handle, but you need to be near a plug, while petrol versions are more powerful, but are noisier and heavier. Increasingly, many gardeners are choosing battery-operated strimmers. These can be simple to use, but do require frequent charging.
Finally, most trimmers work by using a nylon line that is spun very fast to cut through the grass. Pay attention to whether you're buying an automatic line feed trimmer, which releases the line as you need it, or a bump feed trimmer, which will usually require you to tap the trimmer's head against the ground when you want more line. You can also buy a manual feed trimmer, where you have to pull out the line yourself, though these are less common. All have advantages and disadvantages, so your final choice will depend on what you find easiest to handle.
Battery-operated strimmers are all the rage these days: not only does the lack of a cable mean you can garden as far away from a power socket as you like, they're often quieter and safer too. At 2.4kg, this Bosch model is light and can trim over 1,000 metres with one charge. There's also a height-adjustable handle, which extends anywhere between 80cm and 114cm.
One of the more powerful corded strummers on the market, this electric model has a wide cutting head (30cm) and sails through even long grass and weeds. Which? rates it as one of their best buys, but warn that some gardeners might find operating it hard work - "It throws up stones, it's quite noisy and it takes some strength to control it".
Our gardening expert Jean Vernon recently picked this battery-powered strimmer as one of her favourite tools for autumn. It features Husqvarna's signature power-saving savE system, which means you can get up to an hour of strimming action for every charge. "The twin line cutting system has a quick feed for easy use and it can share its power pack with the hedge trimmer in the same range," Jean says.
Exclusively sold by Argos and Homebase, Qualcast grass trimmers are definitely a budget option. This corded electric number however is a sturdy piece of kit that delivers a decent cut for small to medium-sized gardens, though some customers find it a little heavy. It has an automatic line feed.
The petrol strimmer is the lightest grass cutter made by Stihl, but like most petrol-operated models, it's a seriously powerful machine. The bump feed strimmer gives a neat cut and, with its adjustable handles, is one of the more comfortable models on the market.
Another budget corded trimmer, ideal for someone with a small garden. This one has a 25cm cutting width, a good long cable (12 metres) and comes with a handy plant guard for when you're trimming near flowers. The only downside is it has a fixed shaft, so you won't be able to adjust the height.
This innovative cordless trimmer uses blades instead of a line of cord. At just 1.5kg, it's very light and has a cutting head can be tilted and rotated - giving you exactly the angle you want. A bonus is that Gtech promises to give you replacement blades for free, whenever you require.
Makita ZMAK-RST210 21cc 2, £135
Described as an "ideal entry level trimmer", this bump feed petrol trimmer is light, easy to manovuere around the garden and cuts exceptionally quickly. It's pleasingly low on noise and vibration too.
Black & Decker GLC3630L 36v, £169.99
Another Which? best buy, this trimmer has an extremely powerful battery (36v) which can conveniently be fully charged within an hour. Even better, it has several modes so you can control your power usage – switch on the turbo mode if you're battling particularly tough grass, or or switch to eco if you want to get the most out of your charger. Cuts all types of grass with ease.
Wolf Garten twin line GT850/GB, £75.99
This corded trimmer has an adjustable head and handles, meaning it's comfortable to use and get the angle you require. It's a very neat trimmer with a reliable automatic cord-feed, and comes with a 10m cable, so you hopefully won't have to play around with extension leads.

49ers fan here. Not looking to troll or instigate, just looking for friendly discussion about the upcoming NFCC.
I was a little surprised seeing how handily you guys took it to the Packers this weekend, it was really impressive. And I don't think I've ever been so upset about a call in a non-niner game before. That Jennings fumble was 100% a fumble no matter what any ref says, that cal was BS. The Giants were clearly more prepared team that afternoon and were able to overcome those crappy calls.
People keep saying the 49ers will most likely struggle with the vaunted Giants d-line, I don't think so. That isn't arrogance, I just feel the 49ers' o-line does well against non blitzing teams that only rush 4. even really really good d-lines, blitzing teams give us fits though. I am far more afraid of the beast that is the Giants receiving core with Nicks and Cruz and a bit of a Manningham. The 49ers have been susceptible to the big play, and as good as Rogers has been at CB for us, Brown isn't that good, and our safeties can be beat deep. Nicks and Cruz could have big days.
At any rate, I must confess, I personally wanted to play the Packers. I love an underdog and martyr story, and I wanted to shut up all the disrespecting critics. I'm sure some of you can relate. The more I thought about it however, the more I like this matchup. I like the 49ers at home, and (after watching the Pack against you guys) I feel a SF/NYG championship will be called much fairer than a SF/GB championship. Hopefully we get refereeing like the 49ers/Saints game got. IDK how many of you guys watched, but the refs really let the players play. Outside of one BS PI call against SF on the first drive there were 2 penalties the rest of the way. They could have called holding a ton of times against NO too, but they let the SF corners bump a little bit past 5 yards as well. No interference while the ball was in the air, but I would say that "5 yard rule" extended to about 10-12 that day, lol.
Anyways, here's to a good game. These two teams have a great history together in the playoffs. The '03 comeback and the Craig fumble (for which some 49er fans have still not forgiven Craig for btw. They blame him for no 3-peat) come to mind. Lets hope Sunday's game is just as exciting as the games in the past have been and as thrilling as last weekend's game.
Go 49ers!!


text: Article | Journal of Applied Corporate Finance | Winter 2015 When One Size Doesn't Fit All: Evolving Directions in the Research and Practice of Enterprise Risk Management Anette Mikes and Robert S. Kaplan Enterprise risk management (ERM) has become a crucial component of contemporary corporate governance reforms, with an abundance of principles, guidelines, and standards. This paper portrays ERM as an evolving discipline and presents empirical findings on its current state of maturity, as evidenced by a survey of the academic literature and by our own field research. Academics are increasingly examining the adoption and impact of ERM, but the studies are inconsistent and inconclusive, due, we believe, to an inadequate specification of how ERM is used in practice. Based on a ten-year field project, over 250 interviews with senior risk officers, and three detailed case studies, we put forward a contingency theory of ERM, identifying potential design parameters that can explain observable variation in the "ERM mix" adopted by organizations. We also add a new contingent variable: the type of risk that a specific ERM practice addresses. We outline a "minimum necessary contingency framework" (Otley, 1980) that is sufficiently nuanced, while still empirically observable, that empirical researchers may, in due course, hypothesize about "fit" between contingent variables, such as risk types and the ERM mix, as well as about outcomes such as organizational effectiveness.

Currier: Sleepers and Dreamers world premiere(June 2012)
New work for chorus and orchestra continues the composer's exploration of science through music
The mysterious world of sleep is examined in Sebastian Currier's Sleepers and Dreamers. This new work for chorus and orchestra will be premiered July 6–7, 2012, at Chicago's Grant Park Music Festival by conductor Carlos Kalmar, commissioned in celebration of the Grant Park Chorus's 50th anniversary.
Currier has long had a curiosity to explore science through his pieces of music. This is evident in his most recent violin concerto Time Machines, in which varying elements of sound were delicately and masterfully presented. Says the composer of his new work: "Sleepers and Dreamers takes us on a voyage from the normal world into the distant, inaccessible world of our sleeping selves…it imagines this remote world within us." The 22-minute work is performed in two parts. The first part, titled Sleepers, features text specifically written for this work by American poet Sarah Manguso, where sleep is "observed, considered and analyzed," according to Currier. The second part, Dreamers, presents the deeper consciousness of sleep, where dreams enter the picture. This section presents actual dream accounts from different dreamers, reflecting, as the composer notes, "the desires, fears, anxieties, pleasures in all of us."
A recording of Time Machines, premiered at the New York Philharmonic in June 2011 featuring Anne-Sophie Mutter, was released by Deutsche Grammophon last year. Next up for Currier is the work Deep-Sky Objects, a song cycle for soprano, ensemble and electronics, to be premiered in September 2012 by the Musiqa Ensemble and soprano Karol Bennett.

Pequot Lakes adopts updated comprehensive plan
More than three years after work began to update the city's comprehensive plan, the Pequot Lakes City Council adopted that plan Tuesday, Feb. 5.
Council member Jerry Akerson cast the sole dissenting vote. The plan required at least four of five council members' votes to be adopted.
That requirement blocked the plan's passage in December 2011, when Akerson and former council member Tom Ryan voted against adoption. That action came after the council tabled a decision on the plan in June 2011 to give Akerson and Ryan time to bring concerns to the planning commission.
The council now includes newcomers Scott Pederson, who worked on the plan as a former Planning and Zoning Commission member, and Tyler Gardner. Ryan didn't win re-election in November.
Pederson and Gardner voted for the plan Feb. 5, along with council member Dave Sjoblad and mayor Nancy Adams, both of whom also voted for passage in 2011.
After the meeting, Akerson said he is on board with a lot of what's in the comprehensive plan and will move forward with it. However, he said concerns he and Ryan raised were never really addressed. He said new ordinances are derived from the comprehensive plan, and he said some ordinances are too restrictive, particularly the city's fence and sign ordinances.
Also, Akerson said, the new plan prohibits commercial growth along the future Highway 371 bypass route, which he said isn't fair to landowners who may want to negotiate for that for their property.
The process to craft an updated comprehensive plan began in 2009. The previous plan, adopted in 2004 after the city and Sibley Township merged in 2002, dealt with environmental, natural resources and lake development issues, city planner Chuck Marohn of Community Growth Institute told the council. That plan was light on urban development.
The city started updating codes, and several big events occurred in the ensuing years, Marohn said, including the decision to expand Highway 371 to four lanes around, rather than through, downtown.
The new comp plan is an update to bring the city to a new reality and economy, Marohn said. That reality includes long-term infrastructure liabilities, zoning standards, and other long-term impacts on growth and development.
The new comp plan has three principles for a healthy economy: reduce the long-term tax burden; streamline the regulatory process; and continue to grow the city's market for goods and services.
Marohn explained that a comprehensive plan is a guiding document.
"They are meant to be advisory. They're meant to guide policy. They don't carry the force of law. It's a pathway to the future," Marohn said, noting the comp plan contains nothing that is binding. "It intelligently lays out steps we agree we should be taking."
Besides Marohn's presentation, there was little discussion by the council.
In January, the council agreed to submit any questions regarding the comprehensive plan to staff in time to have the answers before the Feb. 5 meeting. Dawn Bittner, planning and zoning administrator, said only Gardner called with a question that she was able to answer.
The plan can be found online at http://www.pequotlakes-mn.gov on the planning and zoning page.

(telbivudine) Tablets and Oral Solution
Lactic acidosis and severe hepatomegaly with steatosis, including fatal cases, have been reported with the use of nucleoside analogues alone or in combination with antiretrovirals [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
Severe acute exacerbations of hepatitis B have been reported in patients who have discontinued anti-hepatitis B therapy, including Tyzeka. Hepatic function should be monitored closely with both clinical and laboratory follow-up for at least several months in patients who discontinue anti-hepatitis B therapy. If appropriate, resumption of anti-hepatitis B therapy may be warranted [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
Tyzeka is the trade name for telbivudine, a synthetic thymidine nucleoside analogue with activity against hepatitis B virus (HBV). The chemical name for telbivudine is 1-((2S,4R,5S)-4-hydroxy-5hydroxymethyltetrahydrofuran-2-y1)-5-methyl-1H-pyrimidine-2,4-dione, or 1-(2-deoxy-β-L-ribofuranosyl)-5methyluracil. Telbivudine is the unmodified β-L enantiomer of the naturally occurring nucleoside, thymidine. Its molecular formula is C10H14N2O5, which corresponds to a molecular weight of 242.23. Telbivudine has the following structural formula:
Telbivudine is a white to slightly yellowish powder. Telbivudine is sparingly soluble in water (greater than 20 mg per mL), and very slightly soluble in absolute ethanol (0.7 mg per mL) and n-octanol (0.1 mg per mL).
Tyzeka Film-Coated Tablets are available for oral administration in 600 mg strength. Tyzeka 600 mg Film-Coated Tablets contain the following inactive ingredients: colloidal silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, povidone, and sodium starch glycolate. The tablet coating contains titanium dioxide, polyethylene glycol, talc, and hypromellose.
Tyzeka Oral Solution is available for oral administration in 100 mg per 5 mL strength. Tyzeka Oral Solution contains the following inactive ingredients: citric acid anhydrous, benzoic acid, passion fruit flavor, sodium saccharin, sodium hydroxide, and purified water. A 600 mg dose (30 mL) of Tyzeka oral solution contains approximately 47 mg of sodium.
What are the possible side effects of telbivudine (Tyzeka)?
Get emergency medical help if you have any of these signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficulty breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
This medication may cause lactic acidosis (a build-up of lactic acid in the body, which can be fatal). Lactic acidosis can start slowly and get worse over time. Get emergency medical help if you have even mild symptoms of lactic acidosis, such as:
- muscle pain or weakness;
- numb or cold feeling in your arms and legs;
- trouble breathing;
- feeling dizzy, light-headed, tired, or very...

I'm feeling like I just bought a piece of history... this is the last year for the hatchback WRX, right? I paid $25,871 (+tags) for a black base model with a short throw. No extras, bone stock! How was my invoice in comparison to what you paid? Oh yeah, so I also just started reading about the 4K/1000K break-in period (after the 10-mile gymkhana style solo test drive), any thoughts on that? Is there anything I should do that the manual doesn't cover? Do you have any insight on what I can expect from the machine in the first few weeks/months (especially something that seemed unordinary to you at first)?
O yah... i haz pix too!
Any words of wisdom/advice are appreciated – PM/email me

During the next three weeks CalTrans anticipates building fences and removing trees and other vegetation all along the bypass route, according to CalTrans spokesman Phil Frisbie. Residents will see some gravel and culverts to facilitate ingress and egress areas for different segments near roadways.
Workers also will be installing silt fencing as needed along future planned work areas to reduce the amount of sediment entering local creeks from CalTrans' activities.
Flatiron Construction, one of two main contractors on the project, is expected to begin bringing in steel and timber needed for some of the work anticipated later in the summer.
CalTrans is still working through the details of the anticipated haul road design, said Frisbie.
The gravel roadway installed in the south end of the bypass footprint was not the anticipated haul road, but was needed to allow California Highway Patrol equipment to access the tree-sitter locations.
The bypass route has between eight and 12 biologists along the route, conducting surveys and monitoring activity, says Frisbie. CalTrans has been harvesting wild seeds along the route for the past two years to be used in reseeding disturbed locations. Semaphore grasses are only identifiable in the spring and early summer. These are being identified now to allow them to be transplanted in the winter when dormant.
Two new tree-sitters have taken up residence along the route. "Spotted Owl," who has not been identified, has established a roost 40 feet off the ground in a grove of oaks on the southern end of the route. Crow has established a nest not far from the Shell Lane area. Crow's location allows him to observe spawning fish in the nearby creek, according to Earth First! spokeswoman Naomi Wagner.
"Spotted Owl" said she is 27 years old and grew up in Southern California. She attended college in Boston.
"Owl" says she knew someone working with the Willits protest group and wanted to come and help. "It is a privilege to be able to do this," she said.
Neither CalTrans nor CHP has paid much attention to her tree so far.
CalTrans' Frisbie says they are not working in this area during this summer.
Earth First! Wagner said Owl is in the same area as one of the other tree-sitters removed April 2, and his tree was cut down. She wondered why he and his tree were removed if CalTrans was not planning to work at that location.

Discussion in 'The Coffee Shop ~ Chit Chat' started by CrossMan, Mar 13, 2005.
How long has this message board (website) been up? Looks pretty cool.
wazzup. looks like this place is pretty new. only 100 members. glad to see it though
Yeah, looks like the first of the month maybe.
Yeah, maybe three weeks old>?
Like someone said in the other forum, you have to start somewhere.
This is an interesting question.
I got the idea for the board last year. I registered the URL and got the hosting space squared around later in the year and put something up around Novemeber or so. Then the holidays hit, and most importantly, I had a son born in October. So much of my free time is gone.
Now, the boy is 5 months old, he's SLEEPING through the night somewhat, which means I can sleep, and the site has been up and running in it's current format for a short while. I scrapped the original design (which was custom - by me) for the current design (open source stuff) late last month and I think that the results are well worth it.
Thanks for tall the kudos guys (and gals), because this isn't a money-making scheme like some of these companies out there trying to pump out all-for-one message boards that cover every type of car ever built. This is just a place to chill out and maybe get a question or two answered.
Ciao, Steve

GCIH - Iz haz it.
I basically took the SANS Self Study route. My study plan was reading and indexing Counter Hack: Reloaded by Ed Skoudis. It was beneficial because some test questions were lifted directly from the book. Combined with the SANS SEC504 course material, the Counter Hack index filled in some gaps. I listened to the Ed Skoudis SANS SEC504 MP3s and read through the SANS SEC504 course ware. I also had the course CD-ROM, but I did not use it because I had good exposure to the tools when I was doing my C|EH. I indexed all the slides from the course material as well as putting page markers in the course material and in CH:R. I also had printed out all the SANS cheat sheets, the wiki on NetCat, and commonly used backdoor ports. I wish I would have had commonly used port print-out, but I survived without it.
The test itself was exactly like the practice test, but more difficult. The practice test was more cut and dry, What do you use X for? While I felt the actual test was more applying the knowledge, ex. if you wanted to do x and y, what would you use? I felt my test was covered all topics evenly, and that all the tools were well represented, the IH process, and the details of each phase of IH. The testing center was annoying. In Florida we just had out first cold front of the fall and they had the HEAT ON! Luckily, I wore shorts. I wish I would have had more room to spread out my books, but I managed. Once I knew I passed, I took a break, went to the bathroom, and re-arranged my work area.
All in all, I enjoyed the experience. I am looking forward to the live training event in DC for GCIA. Then.. who knows what else I might go for. GCFA? GCFA? Maybe back to EC-Council for CFHI? Or should I go for the GOLD?! Or just focus on school until I'm done.
Thank you EH-NET for all your support through my journey!

Berlin is definitely worth a visit and whoever comes in such a nice, central and quiet apartment in which does not lack anything that is lucky. Everything was perfect, and Benjamin, and ruled by a team with all the questions always fast and reliably. It was very clean, modern finished furnished, including hair dryer and free internet access, the beds are comfortable. All in all, very professional. Judith

nice clean big apartment..can see the TV tower of Berlin,..located across the subway station so quick access to central Berlin..building looks like a huge student dormatatory but actual apartment is big ,clean and furnished.. a negative would be the TV is actuall a small computer like moniter
Beautiful large bright apartment for a good price and in a central location
Schöne große helle Wohnung für einen guten Preis und zentral gelegen
Thank you, for at pleasent apartment i Berlin. Close to u-bahn, city, stores.....
Looking forward to visit Berlin again
Apologies for not doing this sooner but the apartment is fantastic and we had a brilliant trip to Berlin. Very central, very modern. Two things I would mention are maybe brief instructions on using the cooker, symbols explained - I was confused between oven and grill and the other thing is some guidance on rubbish. When to put it out, which bins belonged to Block 3 and when we tried to recycle bottles/cans etc we found the bin was locked and we didn't have a key. we left them on top and someone must have put them in the bin. But this would be useful so tenants don't leave this for you at the end of their stay.
> All very good though. Hazel
I hope to return to Berlin soon so I will book with you again.

Town Square
Bowling Alley and Motel Sold
Original post made by Resident, Another Palo Alto neighborhood, on May 10, 2007
We need more sales tax revenue. A child friendly restaurant could work. A big box store, Kohls, school supply store (Staples), something we really "need" in Palo Alto would be useful. Please Mr. Developer, consider what is best for Palo Alto, not what is best for your ideals, when deciding what to do with your purchase. We would love to have a bowling alley remain, but put the parking at the front not the back!!

Hotels and Retail - the solution to all our problems, lots of taxes generated (including a juicy "hotel" tax on out of towners) and no annoying families demanding services and filling schools. Exactly why did the city counsel screw up the chance to have the Hyatt Rickeys become another hotel?

This is a very well thought out article and I applaud the DN and hope the Weekly can do something similar. The one thing that was not mentioned is that in the epidemic of obesity that surrounds us, we need places where people of all ages can have some fun and activity, getting exercise, rather than sitting at a computer drinking endless calories. We could easily innovate with some virtual bowling games going on at the same time, and even perhaps have virtual lessons. A really good innovater and entrepreneur could definitely come up with some great methods of updating these facilities into something that would attract for the 21st century rather than remind us of the heydey of the last.

Article in the business times today says either hotel or senior housing. My assumption is that the hotel would be an extended stay-type facility, which from a tax revenue standpoint is good, not great for PA (doubt it will fill the revenue gap left by Rickeys, though). Lot of money in senior housing right now- thats a likely fit.

text: This is only our second year keeping bees, but one thing I'm really glad we did was to start out with two hives last year. Believe it or not, things can go wrong. We ended up with a sterile queen in one (my) hive, while the other hive (my wife's, of course) flourished. We did get a new queen, but the hive never recovered. Had we been more experienced, we would have supplemented the weak hive with brood from the strong hive. In the end, my hive died off, while my wife's produced 100 pounds of honey. Had we only started with one hive, and things were to go wrong, we might have decided bees weren't for us. Fortunately, our supplier stands behind there bees. We received a new package of bees this year, so we are back to two hives again.

i don't think most people have total faith in the "system" even those on assistance --at least in this state have been cut off, had to re-apply, jump through a bunch of hoops and so on. so they know that the government is fickle about their dire straights and will only help them when it is helpful to the gov--
i think what is really going on is those that are totally dependent on the gov really don't want to admit that it might fail.
they know it CAN and that its failure is more likely than not.
it is kind of like being on the 'titanic" --you hope that it really is unsinkable---though you know deep-down it can sink.
i think it is just a form of denial---really.
you see denial over and over through history.

New London — On the same night that the city's mayor proposed making New London High a sports medicine and scholar-athlete magnet school, the special master assigned to the school district announced a $3 million request with the state Bond Commission to renovate the school.
Special master Steven Adamowski told the Board of Education Thursday that the Bond Commission is scheduled today to allocate the $3 million, which would cover the entire cost of the design phase of renovating the high school as new.
He said 5 percent of a building project's costs generally comprise an architectural study and plans.
There are no current plans to renovate the high school, but Adamowski said the school is in "dire need for renovation and improvement." The funds were requested by the state education commissioner, he said.
"You're also aware that there are a number of complaints that have been filed over the years to the Office of Civil Rights that are pending against the district relative to the school being inaccessible to the handicapped," Adamowski told the school board.
In Gov. Dannel P. Malloy's school reform plan, an allocation was made for $16 million for facility improvements for low-performing schools, Adamowski said.
"The commissioner and I felt that it was in the spirit of that allocation to try to do something that would move (the) New London High School project forward," he said.
"It needs to be a facility that the community can be proud of. Clean, safe, free of environmental hazards and accessible to all people, and one that can represent and promote a curriculum program in which students can become college-ready and have the relevance of a theme that can help them in terms of college admissions and beyond in their career," he said.
Also Thursday, Mayor Daryl Justin Finizio proposed that New London High School become a sports medicine and scholar-athlete academy as part of a larger proposal to make New London the state's first and only magnet school district.
An arts academy, possibly in Waterford, could become the city's third magnet high school, Adamowski said at the meeting. Discussions involving an arts school between New London and Waterford officials are ongoing, he said.
"One of my greatest issues in life is to support public education," Finizio said. "I do support the concept of moving to an all-magnet school district because it will improve student achievement and gain increases in state funding. We need at least three or more academies within the city to move forward as a district."
Meanwhile, the New London sports medicine academy would focus on nutrition and occupational therapy, among other things, and would "open up the possibility of students going into health care professions which are the fastest-growing professions in the Northeast," Finizio said.
Drawing inspiration from the "high achievements" at Hartford's Sports and Medical Science Academy, Finizio said, a sports medicine academy would be in "keeping with the interest among the student population that is currently at New London High School."
"Through the addition of a scholar-athlete and Sports Medicine Magnet School in New London, we will be able to educate our children at a higher level, continue the longstanding tradition of Whaler sports, and move our district from the bottom to the top," he wrote in a memo to the school board Thursday.
New London currently has two magnet schools, both with a science, technology, engineering and math emphasis: the Science and Technology Magnet High School and Winthrop Magnet Elementary School.
The new Nathan Hale School is scheduled to open next year as a magnet school for performing and visual arts. Jennings Elementary School has a dual-language and foreign-language theme but is not a designated magnet school.
A 2006 law established the concept of an all-magnet school system in New London. Under the plan, every public school in the city — elementary, middle and high schools — would be a specialized magnet school.
An all-magnet school designation would provide a higher level of state reimbursement — an additional $3,000 per student if the district hits required enrollment quotas. That reimbursement would total about $9 million.
Tours of the sports medical school in Hartford will be scheduled with school and city officials and community members. Parents and students can expect informational forums on the proposal.

I am a Service Desk manager and my organization requires that I obtain one of five types of certifications: CISA, CISSP, GSE, SCNA or GCIH. My background is in technology management, people and processes. After looking over the choices CISA seems the fit best.
I will need to attend a "boot camp," and engage in some serious self-study. But, I wanted to explore other in-class learning that might help. My ideal model is the UCSD Extension course CISSP.
Any advice is appreciated.

A Thanksgiving meal wouldn't be complete without pumpkin, and here in Vermont we wouldn't dream of excluding our beloved maple syrup. We've combined the two in these elegant custards, featuring the best part of a pumpkin pie and saving calories for a luscious finish of real whipped cream. If you can find it, use Grade B dark amber syrup to get the best maple flavor.

Serves 6
Prep Time 30 min
Total Time 180 min.
Step 1
Preheat oven to 325°F. Put a kettle of water on to heat for the water bath. Line a roasting pan with a folded kitchen towel.
Step 2
Heat milk over low heat in a small saucepan until barely steaming but not boiling.
Step 3
Whisk eggs and syrup in a large bowl until smooth. Gently whisk in the warm milk (a little bit at a time so the eggs don't cook). Add pumpkin puree, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt; whisk until blended.
Step 4
Divide the mixture among six 6-ounce (3/4-cup) custard cups. Skim foam from the surface. Place custard cups in the prepared roasting pan. Pour enough boiling water into the pan to come halfway up the sides of the custard cups. Place the pan in the oven and bake, uncovered, until custards are just set but still quiver in the center when shaken, 45 to 50 minutes. Transfer custards to a wire rack and let cool for 45 minutes. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until chilled.
Step 5
To serve, top each custard with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkling of crystallized ginger.

As silly as it may sound, there's something both magical and therapeutic about plunging your hands into the soil. First of all, it reaffirms your link with the Earth and increases your capacity for walking between the worlds equally. It also provides a link to the collective consciousness of everyone who has ever tread that piece of ground. Just as important, though, it stabilizes the psyche and allows you to see everything in a new light—a brighter light—a light in which solutions are found, problems are solved, and fresh starts abound. And after the dormancy of Winter, that's something we can all use. Dorothy Morrison, author of Bud, Blossom, & Leaf, shares gardening rituals for affirmation and growth.

Overview: You and your opponents are engaged in a high-stakes race — to build a fishing fleet. Wait, hear me out. Fleet is a game about acquiring the right licenses so you can launch boats and profit from this little-known bay. That might sound a little dry, but just wait until you get outbid on that shrimp license you were banking on…
Ages: 10 and up
Playing Time: 30-45 minutes
Retail: $24.99
Rating: A nice catch, but better with more players.
Who Will Like It? You don't have to like fishing to enjoy Fleet, though maybe there's an added appeal for commercial fishermen. It's good for gamers who like something that requires a bit of thought and planning, but won't put too much strain on your brain. And if you like auctions in games, that's a key part of Fleet.

When a woman is on her knees pleasuring four men simultaneously from her ass, her mouth, as well as her left and right hand. Because she doesn't have her hands on the floor for leverage, this uncoordinated act resembles a gagging eagle in flight flapping it's wings struggling for balance.
As an act of true patriotism the drunk skank choked on his toy soldier while three other troops skewered that floppy eagle from every direction.

I am returning to beekeeping after many years (had 150 hives before varroa and am now retired) and want to use thymol. I've read all the posts on here on the subject I can find, but am not clear about how much to use, how to apply it. I also have thought to requeen while treating, thus creating a period of no brood. (I'm in northern Calif so there is brood pretty much year around.)
My goal is to be chemical free with drone trapping next year, Russian queens, screened bottom boards, etc but a few of my hives (20 started in spring) have serious mites this fall.
Also I read the bio thread! What a bunch of great, wacky people! I think beestings must have an effect on the personality (for the better.)
I also have an arthritic finger (from an old injury) that I am treating with stings. Anyone out there done this (intentionally)?
The article in ABJ about selection for mite resistance is VERY intriguing. I realize it will require raising my own queens, but I have the time and desire to do this. Any of you raising and selecting your own queens now?
