Offense Vs. SFA Disappointed Kingsbury
- Kingsbury on what surprised him when he looked at the film: "I just think watching the film really showed me just how loose we were in a lot of areas. From what I've seen in practice, and I'm speaking for the offense right now but what I've seen in practice is very tight, doing things right, doing the little things, and we got away from that in the game. So we've got to tie that back in and play better Saturday."
- Kingsbury on the blocking problems: :Yeah, both [offensive line and receivers]. Both. Offensive line was soft and then the receiver -- the inside receivers came at some blocks well. Dylan Cantrell, some of the outside guys did some thing, but a couple of those young inside guys, they caught some passes, scored some touchdowns, but they weren't very good blocking."
- Kingsbury on the receiver's overall play: "Yeah, I think they played okay. Not great on depths of route. Not real sharp on some of those things. I thought a couple of the inside guys weren't very physical blocking. So we're going to get that fixed this week."
Defense Was Bright Spot Against SFA
- Kingsbury on Ondre Pipkins and Kolin Hill: "Physicality. I thought early they really were a force in there, jamming up the middle on some of those runs and winning their one-on-one battles and that was good. They are two big, physical tough guys. They play with a chip on their shoulder. They have a lot of football built up after sitting out a year, and I think there's a lot of room for growth, which is encouraging."
- Pipkins on Gibbs reaction to their performance: "He was pretty excited for the most part. Of course, he wanted, you know, the ball a little bit more, so we got to do a better job of turning the ball over and making plays. And also, just taking advantage of our opportunities, batting balls, disrupting the quarterback, throwing his timing off. That's something we've got to do better. But for the most part, I think Coach Gibbs was pretty excited."
Ondre Pipkins Happy To Be Back In The Game
- Pipkins: "It felt good to get back out there. It's been awhile. The jitters, of course you have them, but I have my teammates right there beside me, so it felt like it was just another day."
- Pipkins on playing in the Jones: "It was loud. It was loud. Before I got on the field, I wasn't as nervous. I'm like, okay, I can -- when I got on the field -- they just started roaring, and I was like, oh. my. goodness. It's just a good environment and I'm happy to be a part of it. We have a great fan base and they did a great job Saturday cheering us on."
Wide Receivers Look to Improve
- Jonathan Giles on the receivers needing to be more physical: "Most definitely. We watched film yesterday and I watched it again today at home and I feel that's something as a group we need to get better at. We did a good job of getting bigger and stronger so I feel if we touch upon our techniques we will be fine."
- Jonathan Giles on the importance of blocking to get playing time: "Most definitely [it will start weeding guys out] because our offense is so spaced out so what makes the running game go is the inside and outside receivers doing there blocking in the run game."
- Devin Lauderdale on what coach Jones pointed out: "Most people see that we are physical but it wasn't physical enough for him so he want to see somebody on the ground every play when we are blocking. Just hustle and run to the ball every play so that really what he was stressing."
Prepping for Arizona State
- Kingsbury on playing a notorious for blitzing: "Not really [worried about it], just because I know what he [Mahomes] can do. We'll get better up front. I know that's coming, and I know what Pat can do versus a blitz or a rush or whatever. So it's good to have a quarterback that can make plays and extend plays. I watched him in the Bowl game and we didn't block anybody the entire game, and still ran around and did his thing."
- Kingsbury on Arizona State: "Yeah, I think offensively, they have a dual-threat quarterback, very good athlete, they have a great running back. Coach Lindsey, the offensive coordinator, I was a big fan of what he did at Southern Miss and he's doing a good job there. They will be tough to stop. Defensively some really good pass rushers and good secondary. The one corner had a bunch of interceptions last year. It will be a step up in competition that's for sure and we'll have to play well."
- Kingsbury on Arizona St. D-Line:"They do [have good pieces]. They have guys that can be disruptive, get upfield. Solid in the run game. So it will be a good challenge. From what I saw this past week we are going to have to improve a lot up front.
- Mahomes on Arizona St: "I think it just kind of depends what defense they are in. They have a really good defensive line. Their pass rushers are really good. But they have a good defense in general. They have a really good scheme. They blitz a lot, try to confuse you. So just me recognizing the blitzes and getting us in the best play would be the best way to go about that."
- Lauderdale on going to Tempe: "Be focused you know. We are already predicted to lose which put a chip on our shoulder. They were a high ranked team last year so we are just trying to go in and prove something."
- Dylan Cantrell on going to Tempe: "I've never been there personally but I have heard a lot of things. Crazy fans, night game under the lights, so it will be fun."
The Texas vs. Notre Dame Game
- Kingsbury said that he was watching Narcos season two (on Netflix).
- Mahomes did watch it and said, "It was an awesome game. Two really good teams, both teams, quarterbacks, played well, all the quarterbacks in the game. It was exciting to see a high-scoring game with a lot of different changes and momentum."
My Take: Everybody expects to play better when there is pressure from a more competitive team like Arizona State. There seems to be more motivation this week to work harder and clean up the mistakes. While the depth at receivers is great it seems like it will become more narrow and the more well rounded receivers will rise to the top as the schedule becomes more challenging.null

Scenario Planning Power for Unsettled Times
When organizations want to develop strategies around potential changes in their operating environment, they often turn to scenario planning. But are they utilizing its full power? Countervailing forces analysis offers a structured way to integrate the unexpected into scenarios and prepare an association for a wide array of possible futures.
Planning would be easy if we could take a look at a trend line and simply extend it out into the future. But if reality worked that way, housing prices would be much higher today than they were five years ago, and many a startup company would still be in business.
All planning begins with research into environmental conditions—a look at "what's going on." In times of relative stability, it was much easier to take that data-driven foundation and extrapolate plausible future scenarios. Today, however, such scenario analysis is significantly more challenging.
But while times of pervasive uncertainty make scenario planning more difficult, these are also the times when the true power of scenario analysis becomes most apparent.
In its simplest form, scenario analysis is spinning a story about a future state. It anticipates future economic, social, and political directions and develops responses accordingly. It is a tool for monitoring the environment in support of decision making and action, a key competency to cultivate in uncertain times.
|5 Scenario Pitfalls to Avoid
|To ensure successful scenario analysis, avoid the following five pitfalls.
1. Treating scenarios as simple forecasts. Forecasts are normally extrapolated trends that are internally derived and driven; they usually offer a specific prediction. Scenarios address shifts in the industry's environment and as such are more externally derived. Scenarios are not about predicting the future but rather offering multiple distinct, plausible outcomes.
2. Falling into the strawman trap. Many users of scenario analysis do not generate equally plausible scenarios but instead develop one plausible scenario and two or more "strawman" scenarios that simply serve to make the first one seem more plausible. This approach is not useful for planning or future environmental monitoring.
3. Ignoring relevant factors. Scenarios sometimes overlook areas of potential real impact on a profession or industry. It is easy to focus on trends for which data is available rather than the ones that really matter. This can be a result of faulty research analysis or simply not interpreting the research correctly.
4. Drawing inappropriately early conclusions. Do not accept an outcome before all the factors have had a chance to play out. Scenario analysis should support development of current strategies, but scenarios' real impact is in monitoring over time as a basis for assessing strategic direction and making modifications based on real-time environmental change.
5. Not engaging the most senior staff and decision makers. To be effective, scenario planning must have senior management ownership and involvement.
Scenario analysis is not about predicting the future or identifying a "most likely" scenario. Rather, it is about developing several plausible outcomes, monitoring them, and trying to influence the one(s) that are most desirable.
What Makes Scenarios Work
There is no magic in crafting good scenarios; the four building blocks listed on page 34 are enough to get you started. But when instability is significant, as we're experiencing today, there are several key factors to keep in mind.
Clarity of purpose. What is driving the need to develop scenarios? As Kristel Van der Elst put it during a recent World Economic Forum, "What is the central question of the specific strategic issue that requires a decision in light of trends or potential development?'
Clarity of time horizon. A big hurdle to overcome in scenario planning is getting one's thought process beyond the next couple of years. Using at least a 10-year time horizon is a good starting point, but it is also important to realize that different factors require different time horizons. For changing workforce trends, 10 years is a good time horizon. For public-policy issues, a much shorter horizon may be relevant. A mix of factors, with varying effective time horizons, will likely be part of most scenarios, with the overall time horizon for the total scenario pegged to the decision process the scenario is being constructed to support. So, if an organization is developing a five-year plan, the overall scenario should be constructed to monitor the environment in that timeframe, but within the scenario specific variables may play out in less or more than five years.
Plausibility. Each scenario should have a reasonable likelihood of outcome. Don't craft two polar extreme scenarios and one "midrange" scenario; the art of scenario analysis is blending the known and the unknown into profiles of alternative futures that have equal or similar plausibility. In uncertain environments, because no single outcome can be assured, it is prudent to develop plans on the assumption that several different futures are possible.
Evidence based. Anyone can guess about the future. The key is to eliminate guessing as much as possible and craft scenarios that take into account the joint effect of the many factors in your environment. Research, both primary and secondary, is the best way to get at this. It is important to recognize, however, that hard data will not be available for all the relevant factors in the environment, and the scenarios should take into account important "soft" variables as well. (A technique for doing this is covered below under the subheading "Countervailing-Forces Analysis.")
Appropriate breadth. It is important to engage all stakeholders in the scenario-planning process. If you are an association of homebuilders trying to craft a plan for the future in light of the 2008 economic meltdown, it is necessary to go beyond the inner core of the organization and include input and perspective from all of the stakeholders in your environment: bankers, mortgage brokers, buyers, landowners, suppliers, and so forth. The key is to cast a wide net.
Action oriented. Scenarios can be used passively to describe the anticipated environment or more actively. But scenarios can also drive strategies to influence the environment and not just accept it as a given with which the organization must cope.
Trackable metrics. Once scenarios are developed, you must monitor the environment to determine which is playing out in reality. Define each metric clearly and then determine the basis and unit target to track it. For example, if an important environmental factor for your scenario is housing starts, one metric might be the 10-year U.S. Treasury note, which has a current rate of 3.5 percent. The target to watch for as a key environmental trigger could be any rate more than five percent.
Countervailing-Forces Analysis
The biggest challenge when weaving together scenario stories is to incorporate behavioral factors that your research does not adequately cover. It is important to be data driven, but reliable data is often not available for certain critical factors.
|The Four Building Blocks of Scenario Analysis
|1. Identify multiple relevant factors active in the environment and for each major factor identify direction, intensity, pace of likely change, and the key players.
|2. Construct several scenarios around those factors that are as equally plausible as possible.
|3. Identify desirable scenario(s) and develop strategies and action plans to influence outcomes.
4. Identify indicators to use in tracking which scenarios are actually emerging over time and adjust strategies accordingly.
Countervailing-forces analysis can help in these situations. It is a tool for factoring in "soft" variables such as likely political trends, shifts in societal values, and other behavioral influences.
The healthcare sector provides an example. Starting in the mid-1980s, the growth of "managed care" was the big trend in health delivery and was the target of many forecasts, including scenario analyses. Almost all of the scenarios developed at that time extrapolated growth data of HMOs (the dominant form of managed care at the time) into forecasts of managed care dominance of the healthcare sector.
To some degree, those forecasts were on target, because managed care did become the major factor in the healthcare environment. However, the direction in which managed care developed and its impact on health delivery, patient care, and healthcare costs turned out to be quite different from what most of the scenarios envisioned. Why?
The reason the early scenarios were so far off target was that they failed to take critical soft variables into account. The scenario that played out in reality started with strong media and political support for HMOs, including considerable public funding of HMO demonstration projects. As public and professional backlash grew over concerns about restriction of choice and denial of coverage, the media reaction began to become more mixed and over time turned generally negative. Political pressure started to develop in response to negative media coverage and constituent feedback to legislators' offices at both the federal and state levels.
Insurance companies and health plans sponsoring HMOs responded by making modifications in the plans, and eventually what began as the HMO movement broadened to the more general managed-care trend. However, the generally negative image of managed care prevailed, and the term has become emblematic of much of what is widely perceived to be wrong with the health-delivery system.
What does all of this mean for scenario analysis? The scenarios of the early 1990s were generally on target with regard to the broad direction of the system. The HMO movement did grow rapidly and became a major driver of health-delivery trends. However, almost all the scenarios missed the potential for backlash and thus the potential for the evolution of HMOs into the broader managed-care phenomenon and the negative image that developed around it. Instead of becoming the solution to healthcare issues that was originally envisioned and forecasted, the HMO movement became emblematic of what is wrong with the healthcare system and has been a major factor leading to the push for broader health-system reform.
Countervailing-forces analysis could have been used to construct scenarios that anticipated this shift in direction and impact, taking into account those "soft" variables that can substantially shift a trend line.
Incorporating Countervailing Forces Into Scenarios
Countervailing-forces methodology is by its nature more speculative than data-based forecasting, so it is important that it be as specific and reality based as possible and used in combination with more data-based trend identification. Follow these steps:
1. Start with data-based trends. The key drivers in most environments are relatively apparent, and usually there is some data to support extrapolation of the trend in question. In the example above, there was data available by the early 1990s about the growth of HMOs and their early impact on controlling healthcare costs.
2. Ask who will be most affected. Be sure to consider both direct and indirect stakeholders. Generally, the direct stakeholders are relatively easy to identify; in the HMO example, they might include patients, healthcare providers, and people and institutions that pay for health insurance and healthcare. Indirect stakeholders are those affected by or sensitive to the direct stakeholders, such as the media, political bodies, nongovernmental organizations representing key stakeholder groups, and the public at large.
3. Ask how stakeholders will be affected. Starting with the direct stakeholders, consider the direction, intensity, and pace of the likely impacts and each group's likely response. This is, of course, speculative since it involves anticipating human behavior. However, applying the "why" test can help reality test the possible alternatives that are identified. For each potential stakeholder response, ask the question "why," and in response to the answer ask "why" again. Two to three iterations of this technique generally gets the analysis down to fundamentals that either make sense or don't. In cases where the technique produces results that don't make sense, disregard the potential stakeholder response you originally subjected to the "why" analysis and look for others that better withstand the test.
For each of the direct-stakeholder responses that are plausible, ask whether any indirect stakeholders will likely be drawn into the response. Will the direct-stakeholder response be strong enough to attract attention among indirect stakeholder groups, and will the indirect-stakeholders tend to be supportive or resistant?
Once both direct and indirect stakeholders' likely responses are identified, look at them and ask whether they collectively constitute a significant force for potential change.

For a more in-depth discussion on the basics of scenario analysis, see Barton Tretheway's presentation "Scenario Planning: Not a Passive Forecast" from the 2009 ASAE & The Center Annual Meeting.
4. Identify the intensity of stakeholder response. For the anticipated stakeholder responses that are accepted for the analysis, ask follow-up questions: Is the collective anticipated stakeholder response likely to be widespread enough to be apparent within the industry or more broadly in society? If so, is the impact of the response likely to be strong enough to shift the trajectory of the original trend? If so, in what direction?
Anticipating a shift in trajectory should avoid the traditional "pendulum premise." One often hears of "the pendulum swinging back" in discussing trends. This can be limiting and misleading, because pendulums swing on a predictable trajectory and human behavior almost never moves that way. A stakeholder response strong enough to shift the trajectory of a trend is unlikely to send it back in exactly the direction from which it came. The countervailing movement created by a strong stakeholder response will likely be in some other direction. The "why" technique discussed in step three above can be useful in reality testing the alternative trajectories of a trend shift.
5. Revise the original scenarios. Countervailing forces that are identified as potentially significant can be incorporated into the alternative plausible scenarios as key factors to be monitored over time to determine which direction the environment is actually tracking.
Following these five steps will result in scenarios that include a more complete reflection of the environment, including both hard and soft variables.
Many associations are talking about when their environment and the economy will "get back to normal." Back to normal no longer exists; the new paradigm is pervasive uncertainty. Advanced scenario analysis can assist organizations in navigating through these uncharted seas. Done properly, it can be a very powerful planning tool.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
First tip... there are few holidays that cannot be improved by going out for a little run around your destination. So pack your trainers! Even if you only go out 3 times.
If, for some reason you cannot do that, then on you return, I would simply ease your way back into it, doing something like.
Week 1 Run 1. warm up / 20 minute jog / stretch
Week 1 Run 2. warm up / 22 minute jog / stretch
Week 1 Run 3. warm up / 25 minute jog / stretch
Week 2 Run 1. warm up / 25 minute jog / stretch
Week 2 Run 2. warm up / 27 minute jog / stretch
Week 2 Run 3. warm up / 30 minute jog / stretch
Then you should be ready to pick up where you left off.
Well done for completing C25K. The first piece of advice is to enjoy your holiday and have a great time. When you get back perhaps go back one or two weeks on the C25K programme and build back up to 5km. From there you can build your success and work towards your next goal. The idea is not to overdo it and injure yourself!
Have a geat holiday!
Long turist strolls and some gentle swimming in the sea will always help to keep you fitted
I did think about taking my trainers with me but I really don't think I'll have much time for running on my holiday. I will be doing a LOT of walking and plenty of swimming though so I'm hoping to at least keep the energy levels up.
I'll have a look at the link booktrunk and I also think the plan suggested by Runny Knows sounds great.
Thanks for the advice

After another fabulous breakfast Andrzej took us out for the morning. Our travels took us through the town of Aleksandrow. It was a village over 8km long. There was just the one long street in the village. It was really odd but interesting to see all the different kinds of houses. Our destination was Gorecko Koscielne. There was a fabulous wooden church. A service was just ending so we went for a walk and found some beautiful old oak trees and a couple of shrines. Andrzej showed us the ...
Bilgoraj and surroundings - day 1
Our day started with a lovely breakfast with the family. We were served pancakes with fruit, including kiwifruit, and lots of cream. Then we headed off to Zamosc, A beautiful UNESCO town. When we arrived there the weather wasn't great. Andrzej showed us around, beautifully decorated buildings and an impressive main square. We went to the museum on the square. It was very interesting, inside an old house with original features. When we came out the weather ...
Lublin .. with lots in between .. to Bilgoraj
We had another lovely breakfast at the Hotel Victoria. After breakfast we got our bags, checked out and waited in the lobby for Andrzej. Andrzej is a friend of Pieter's. They trade postcards, and he invited us to come stay for a couple of days with his family. Andrzej arrived with Paul who came as a translator. Both are teachers. They asked us what we would like to do today and we said we would like to go to Majdanek concentration camp. ...

Staying Off The Tourist Track
... for lunch at a little town called Radzyń Podlaski...and unbelievably couldn't find a single restaurant in this town! The guide book did say that in the smaller towns, Poles don't eat out much, but this complete dearth of restaurants was still quite unusual. So, starving, we drove on to a Hotel Imperium just out of town for a soup lunch which was, as always, very satisfying. Then came the trek to find the Hotel ...

Perhaps the stress of putting out a new issue is getting to them, but everyone around the Mother Jones offices has been e-mailing each other cheesy corporate theme songs today. You're all kooks! Some of these are more well-known than others, but it seems a shame not to share them with you, dear Riff readers.
First up, the saga of Nixon Peabody. Once there was a law firm who thought celebrating some good press with a specially-commissioned tune was a great idea, and I guess you know the rest:
Style: '80s soul played by a wedding band
Great line: "There's no disputin'/The folks at Fortune Magazine agree!"
Next, feel the power of KPMG. Their theme song, "Vision of Global Strategy" got a blogger in trouble when he linked to it, back in 2001.
Listen here.
Style: Japanese ballad
Great line: "We'll be number one, with effort and fun!"
This isn't really a corporate theme song, but I remember it as one of the first "Internet memes," back in the early days of this awesomely entertaining series of tubes. Steve Ballmer of Microsoft was filmed at a developers conference, chanting, well, "developers," over and over, and after it was circulated, people began making their own remixes and mashups. Check out the techno mix:
Style: The Prodigy
Great line: when he says "developers" the 293rd time
Don't forget Price Waterhouse Coopers, who burst onto the corporate theme song scene back in 2001 with their hands-in-the-air anthem, "Your World, Our People."
Listen here
Style: What was that Kenny Rogers/Sheena Easton duet?
Great line: "We don't sell no dogma/All we've got is skill"
Finally, of course, late last year, a Bank of America employee was aiming for a raise and put together a little ditty about B of A's merger with MBNA, set to the tune of U2's "One." It's so excruciating, I've never actually sat through the entire thing; if you ever want me to stop being a criminal, clamp my eyes open Clockwork Orange-style and force me to watch this over and over, I'll be a real horrowshow chelovek.
Style: Bono gone bad
Great line: "We've got Bank One on the run/What's in your wallet, it's not Capital One"
Don't forget the level this came to: in November, comedian David Cross covered "One Bank," with Johnny Marr, formerly of the Smiths, before a Modest Mouse show in New York City.
Corporate anthem websites seem to come and go rather quickly as their hosts get hit with ceast-and-desist orders. Hopefully these fine companies have all found their sense of humor by now, ha-ha. Commenters, any other corporate themes out there make you want to abolish capitalism? Or any ideas for a Mother Jones theme song?

Momentum seemed to be building in Kanye's favor over the last few weeks in this, the great hip-hop battle of the millenium, but now we have actual statistics to back it up (albeit a pretty small sample from a completely unknown source). HHNLive.com is reporting today's sales figures at all Best Buy stores in the US show Graduation selling 42,438 copies as of 4pm EST; CURTIS has sold 32,640. Not bad.
iTunes has reflected these numbers as well, with pre-orders for Graduation outselling CURTIS all week. Currently, Graduation is lodged at #1 and #4 (the latter being a deluxe edition) with CURTIS at #5; similarly, on iTunes' singles charts, West's "Stronger" is at #1, with 50 Cent's "AYO Technology" at #5.
Mother JonesSep. 11, 2007 5:49 PM
I first met Anita Roddick at a meeting of the Social Venture Network in the fall of 1991. I say "met," more accurately: I encountered a human thrill ride. I was a newbie at that early gathering of progressive-minded entrepreneurs and, progressive though they were, they were also clubby, and the skepticism about whether nonprofit (and "radical!") Mother Jones belonged in this business club was palpable. I girded myself for some power networking.
Anita, unquestionably the queen of the social venture movement, was standing behind a little table for The Body Shop at the "Product Expo," and I approached to introduce myself. I was still several steps away when she spotted Mother Jones on my name tag and pounced. "Mother Jones! That's the most bloody brilliant magazine!! It's an inspiration! Tell me what you're doing here."
Profane charm, infectious enthusiasm, straight to the heartin a few seconds Anita had given the new kid on the block instant credibility. It was just the beginning of her generosity to me and to Mother Jones. Anita's wear-it-on-her-sleeve enthusiasm was one part of her effectiveness as a businesswoman and activistit was hard to resist her energy, not that it would be smart to try.
Her commitment to the causes she cared about ran deep, and a few years and several rollicking collaborations later, she joined the board of Mother Jones' nonprofit parent. There are lots of stories from her years as part of the Mother Jones famly, and in the next few days, I'll share some as part of our tribute to her. Anita's (and husband Gordon's) generosity, connections, and business smarts have helped MoJo through more ups and downs than the Cyclone. In that, we're not alonetoday there are dozens of causes acknowledging the significance of the Roddicks' supportbut we owe her a special debt. And we intend to pay it back in the only way that she would care aboutwith "bloody-brilliant," kick-ass journalism.

I love comparing what goes in the American editions of the newsweeklies to what goes in the international editions.
In the American edition of Newsweek this week, there is a Hillary Clinton cover story described thusly on TAPPED: "This piece is a long, tepid regurgitation of Clinton's career with little new insight."
On the cover of the international edition, a story called "Legal in Unlikely Places: Now mature in the west, gay power is growing worldwide, even in the land of machismo." The story isn't in the American edition at all.
I'll let TAPPED provide the final analysis:
Seems that both social and legal acceptance of homosexuality is rapidly increasing in some unexpected parts of the world. South Africa legalized civil unions in November 2006, making them the first developing nation to do so, and former Catholic strongholds like Latin America are also warming to civil unions. They've been legalized in Mexico City and Buenos Aires, and in Colombia, a bill is working its way through the National Congress that would grant full rights to health insurance, inheritance and social-security benefits to gay and lesbian couples.
Money quote: "The Catholic Church was facing a credibility crisis," says [a] longtime Mexico City-based gay-rights activist... "So many of its leaders... knew that if they fiercely opposed the gay-union law, the news media would eat them alive."
Unlike in the U.S., where ... this article doesn't even appear in Newsweek.

On the sixth anniversary of the September 11th attacks, Grist has an interesting post about Manhattan's financial district. The community's struggle to rebound has given rise to something the area hasn't seen in a long time: a residential neighborhood.
The Twin Towers were not a good addition to the financial district from a livability point of view; one of the main goals of the reconstruction there has been to "recreate the grid"; that is, the various smaller blocks that used to be there, the kind that make up the vibrant street life that Jane Jacobs first discussed in her classic book, The Death and Life of Great American Cities.
Grist's Jon Rynn points out that this project probably wouldn't have been possible without billions of dollars in federal aid. But now that the ball is rolling the community is beginning to take care of itself.
Wouldn't it be nice if the same thing happened in other places?

Hmmm... Maybe it's not so bad to drink Dr. Pepper after all. A recent Cornell University study has found that nearly half of deaths worldwide are caused or exacerbated by environmental pollution, including water pollution.
David Pimentel, the Cornell professor of ecology and evolutionary biology who conducted the research, links 62 million deaths each year to organic or chemical pollutants, placing these factors alongside long-known killers such as heart disease.
Increasing rates of Malaria, E. coli, Salmonella, AIDS, and Tuberculosis all are linked to environmental degradation, according to Pimentel. "In the United States alone, 76,000 people are in the hospital each year, with 5,000 deaths, just due to pollution of air, food, or water," he said. "Cancers are increasing in the U.S., and AIDS is on the rise."

When I learned that most free fruit for schoolchildren in the U.K. contains residue from pesticides, I didn't know quite how to react. I mean, pesticides in food is always bad news for sure. Yet I can't help but think that free fruit for kids is a pretty good idea (and one that we haven't managed to pull off in the U.S.).
Then again, maybe I'm wrong. From a Child Health News article on the topic:
Critics say the scheme was always unlikely to work because making fruit and vegetables available at school break time has no place in a culture in which healthy food is considered 'uncool' and they say stories abound of children forlornly wandering around the school playground with a bucket of fruit, trying to dispose of it.
Conclusion: Even if the free fruit were organic, it would still need some serious PR work.

Hey, did anyone hear about this thing? I don't remember it getting much coverage. Back in 2004, I guess one of Michael Jackson's sisters and a Mouseketeer were at the World Series and did a whole song and dance routine where their clothes exploded? It sounds awesome. Honestly, why doesn't the media report on this stuff? It's all "blah blah, indepth reporting on the war and our government's lies." Yawn. Well, apparently this "wardrobe malfunction" is still working its way through our nation's court system: today, the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia will hear the case of the exposed bazonga.
The FCC originally fined CBS $550,000 for the incident, which, if upheld, would be the largest fine ever against a television broadcaster. CBS appealed, saying that they "did not plan the sole part of the performance the FCC says made it indecent, the 'costume reveal'." Right. It seemed like an, er, open-and-shut case, but these days, the FCC's indecency standards are coming under increasing attack, reports Reuters: two courts in New York have rejected the government's policies on indecent speech, specifically, "fleeting expletives." Now there's a good name for a band.
While the issues work through the courts, the FCC has sat on its hands, or maybe everybody's just watching their mouths: there have been no proposals of fines since March of 2006. You're telling me we could have been ripping each other's clothes off on TV for the last 18 months? Fleeting expletive!

South Australia's corruption watchdog has referred a case against a senior public servant for criminal prosecution, the first time it has done this since the commission was established.
A spokeswoman for SA's Independent Commission Against Corruption (Icac) confirmed on Wednesday that an investigation had been referred to the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP).
The matter, which relates to the conduct of a senior person in public administration, is the first to be referred by Icac for criminal prosecution since it was set up in 2012.
Commissioner Bruce Lander has declined to reveal further details of the investigation.
Several other cases were expected to be referred to the DPP in coming weeks.
Icac had assessed more than 900 complaints over the past 12 months but fewer than 60 were being investigated for corruption-related offences, the spokeswoman said.
The commission's first annual report will be tabled in parliament on 14 October.

The values of nursing arise from a concern with human flourishing. If the desire to become a nurse is a reflection of an aspiration to care for others in need then we should anticipate that those who choose to nurse have a tendency towards the values we would normally associate with a caring profession (care, compassion, perhaps altruism, and so on). However, these values require a secure base if they are not to succumb to the corrupting pressures of the increasingly instrumental nature of the values of the institutions in which healthcare in general and nursing in particular takes place. One way of securing a base for withstanding the corrupting influences of the institution is to understand nursing as a practice in the sense in which Alasdair MacIntyre uses that term. In this brief paper I will outline ways in which the managerial imperative of meeting targets is both distorting practice and undermining nursing's values. I conclude that understanding nursing as a MacIntyrean practice provides a refuge from what might otherwise be overwhelming pressures for nurses to adopt instrumental values to the detriment of professional caring values.

Orrick Herrington & Sutcliffe may have found the answer to the eternal question of how to run a successful global law firm: realising that European lawyers work differently from US attorneys.
The San Francisco firm has implemented a range of changes to the way its European offices work, including revising billing targets and fee rates to rival more closely its local competitors.
In the US, partners are set an annual target of 2,500 hours, 1,900 of which are billable, which last year was applicable to its European lawyers.
However, since the start of this financial year, Orrick's partners in Paris, for example, will work towards a target of 1,650 billable hours, while its Milanese partners will aim for 1,500.
The difference between the Anglo and US billing targets is partly based on the fact that the average billing units for a US firm runs to 15 minutes, while it is around six minutes for UK lawyers.
Since the high-profile launch of its Paris arm in November 2002, Orrick has attacked the Continent with fervour by setting up in Milan and Rome through large-scale lateral hires in April 2003 and February 2004 respectively.
While not all the new offices have completed a full financial year as part of Orrick, European revenues are currently running at over €30m (£20.2m).

Farmers and policymakers are wrestling with two main concerns when it comes to ethanol production: the effect of ethanol demand on food prices, and changes in land use that are detrimental to the environment.

text: Posted September 7, 2012 Oh look two posters who only care about the sports teams because they were too dumb in High School to get into UNC. Which part of this wasn't true? Just because you don't like it doesn't make it not true. Why dont you come back and talk trash the week we're playing your alma mater, assuming we start scheduling the local community colleges. Anyway, yeah, TOB will be on the hot seat if we have a bad season, but he won't be fired after 2 games. UConn is an interesting matchup, they have a tough defense, hopefully we can find some consistency on offense this week.

In the interest of preservation of a great mod in danger of extinction, I have posted Trigger Maru Overhauled with Training wheels to the Subsim download service. That way someone who has an interest in protecting Silent Hunter 4 mods has control of the files and they can continue to be enjoyed by SH4 players.
Here's the download link and thank you Dave Grayson. Ubi SH4 forum is a better place because you were here. Dave always thought of the Ubi forum as home and never ventured away, even during the times of conflict around here. He was about the nicest person around and never joined in any controversy but stayed focused on making Silent Hunter 4 a better game. Salute!
Hey, anybody notice that Yooperbacker gets credits for his contribution to this mod? Wow! I never knew that. Salute!
Last edited by RockinRobbins; 10-21-2015 at 03:12 PM. Reason: accuracy
Thanks for this. I just got back into the game after about 6 years or so and forgot all the mods I had used. I've been searching and coming up with dead links. I remembered enough to know there was a 'lite' version of TMO out there. This was one of the ones I used, so once I get JSGME and sign up for Subsim to down load the mod, I'll be much improved I think.

Annecy says 2018 Winter Games bid is fully funded
PARIS Annecy bid leader Charles Beigbeder denied reports Tuesday that financial problems could affect the chances of the French city hosting the 2018 Winter Olympics.
French station RMC radio reported earlier this week that the Annecy bid has a shortfall of —2.5 million ($3.7 million) in its budget of —29.1 million ($42.7 million).
Annecy is up against Munich, Germany; and Pyeongchang, South Korea; when the International Olympic Committee vote on July 6 in Durban, South Africa, to decide the host city.
Beigbeder, in charge since Edgar Grospiron quit last December because of budgetary issues, said the bid is financially sound.
"We're in a strong position," Beigbeder told The Associated Press. "All our expenses are covered with our revenues. The budget is balanced. There is absolutely zero deficit. I don't understand this controversy.
"We have all of the funds necessary to compete in this race between now and the final decision in Durban. We fully believe this is a bid that can win."
Beigbeder said the bid had the backing of the French president and is financially guaranteed by his government.
"Nicolas Sarkozy strongly committed himself to promote our bid. He has stated the strategic importance of sport and the Olympic Games in particular," Beigbeder said. "The state backs us up all the way and guarantees that revenues entirely cover expenses.
"We can't have a deficit because we are a public entity, which by definition can't be in deficit because we are insured by local authorities and the state."
Beigbeder said the private sector still provides more than 40 percent of the bid's funding.
The motion to pass the budget was postponed three times and then only went through on May 30 with reservations from the city of Annecy and its related Rhone-Alpes region and Haute-Savoie department.
"We decided to abstain (from voting) because there are too many uncertainties over the receipts," Gwendal Peizerat, a councilor delegate for the region, told RMC.

New Zealand status: EndemicConservation status: Nationally CriticalFound in: Mainly braided rivers South Island; scattered North Island coast and RotoruaThreats: Predation, habitat disturbance
The black-billed gull has the unfortunate status of being the most threatened gull species in the world. Stronghold populations of this endemic species have rapidly declined by as much as 80%, resulting in its threat status being upgraded from Nationally Endangered to Nationally Critical in 2013.

Black billed gull on nest
Black-billed gulls are less likely to be found in towns and cities than other gulls, and are not commonly seen scavenging for food.
They have long, thin black beaks that are easily distinguished from the shorter and stouter bright red beak of the red-billed gull (although juvenile red-billed gulls have dark beaks that turn red as they age).
They are a similar size to red-billed gulls, but have pale wings and a thin black border on the wingtips rather than grey wings with more extensive black wingtips.
Adults weigh around 250–300 g and are about 37 cm long.
Breeding sites are mainly the large braided riverbeds of the South Island, with scattered colonies on the North Island coast and at Lake Rotorua. In winter black-billed gulls are more coastal, so are often seen in estuaries, coastlines, harbours, and coastal parks.
Cup-shaped nests are woven from sticks and vegetation. The nests are on bare ground so are sitting targets for predators such as rats, hedgehogs and stoats.
Black-billed gulls are usually 2–3 years old before they breed for the first time. Between August and January the females lay 1 to 4 eggs. Both parents incubate the eggs, which hatch after about 20–24 days (if they aren't eaten by predators). The chicks fledge after a further 26 days.
The main threat is predation by pests such as rats, stoats and hedgehogs
Human activity around nesting sites can disturb gulls, and even cause parents to abandon their nest. In 2013, a man was jailed for driving a vehicle through colonies, destroying nests and killing chicks and even adult birds.
Weed encroachment on river and lake beds has reduced suitable breeding habitat, forcing gulls to nest closer to the water's edge where they are more likely to be flooded.
Disturbing protected birds and destroying nests is an offence under the Wildlife Act 1953 and can result in imprisonment and/or a fine of up to $100,000.
For details of community groups supporting black billed populations and information on pest trapping techniques contact DOC Rotorua or the Bay of Plenty Regional Council email@example.com.
Ongoing/dates vary: Volunteers in Rotorua can help protect threatened bird populations around the Sulphur Bay Wildlife Refuge.
Estuaries are special places where rivers meet the sea. Each one is unique, ranging from small lagoons to extensive wetland harbour systems.
Braided rivers are important features of the upper Waitaki Basin. Their distinctive wildlife and plant communities make them unique worldwide.

Derek Bailey (January 29, 1930 – December 25, 2005) was a free improvising avant-garde guitarist. The most noticeable feature of his style is what appears to be its extreme discontinuity, often from note to note: there may be enormous intervals between consecutive notes, and rather than aspiring to the consistency of timbre typical of most guitar-playing, Bailey interrupts it as much as possible: four consecutive notes, for instance, may be played on an open string

Morning Mist
Morning mist,
Settles on the dusty skyline.
A single skylark,
Takes off and paints the sky.
The sun,
With streaking splendour,
Rises to crown the rooftops,
And bathe the land in gold.
Noises travel,
Hesitant at first,
Then calling out to each other,
Like birds in a city cage.
The day has begun.

Why you shouldn't get the flu jab
I think in America vaccines are a lot more worse than the are here.
I have had the flu jab about three times now and after every jab I have had the flu or cold.
People say you get the flu so that it wakes up your immune system to fight against the upcoming flu, it's all a load of rubbish.
Like I said before and many others will agree, there are so many lies in this world.
I've lived about 28 or 29 years without the flu jab so why do I need one nowadays?
Last year I didn't bother with the jab and I won't bother this year either. It's not needed. And a few years ago, bedore I was clued up, my mum asked my doctor if it was a good idea that I got the dlu jab and he said that it was a good idea! I don't think so.
I saw on the list that Aluminium (Aluminum) is in vaccines. Aluminium is what scientists find in the brains of Alzheimer's patients.
Autism rates have increased in the US because of vaccines, apparently.
