Top 10 potential head coaches for 2014
Here are 10 candidates who teams in need of a new head coach could look at for the 2014 season and beyond.
Greg Schiano is in trouble. Joe Philbin is in trouble. Gary Kubiak is in trouble. Perhaps Mike Shanahan. Maybe Dennis Allen.
All of the aforementioned coaches whose teams have underachieved (whether it's in the eyes of their fans, their media or, most importantly, their bosses) are in danger of being fired by the time the season is complete. Perhaps in one or two cases, they won't even make it to Week 17.
But as usual, there are coaches who will take their places and many other coaches who will apply but eventually fall short. Some will come from college. Some will already have been head coaches who are looking for another chance. Some are long-time assistants.
Some will finally get their shot. Here are 10 candidates who very well could be in the conversation to have their own head coaching gigs by the beginning of 2014.
10. Adam Gase, Denver Broncos offensive coordinator: The Broncos offense is amazing, and by the end of the season, it might be called one of the best in NFL history. Obviously, a huge reason for that is Peyton Manning , but Gase, at the age of 35, deserves plenty of credit as well. He is one of the young up-and-coming assistants, taking over this job for current San Diego Chargers head coach Mike McCoy after McCoy and Gase helped mold the offense for Tim Tebow and then remolded it for Manning. Now, will Gase really have a shot at landing a head coaching job after this season? Perhaps not. But will he be a legitimate candidate in the years to come, based in part because Manning believes in him? For sure.
9. Dave Toub, Kansas City Chiefs special teams coach: After interviewing for the Chicago Bears head coaching job that went to Marc Trestman, Toub accepted Andy Reid's offer to take over special teams in Kansas City. And he's turned it into one of the best units in the league, ranking third in the NFL according to the Football Outsiders measurements. And just because he's a special teams coach, that doesn't mean Toub can't jump right into the head coaching spot. John Harbaugh made that leap, and last season, he won a Super Bowl.
8. Greg Roman, San Francisco 49ers offensive coordinator: Despite the idea that 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick has regressed some this year, the 49ers are still in the top-10 of points scored. In reality, San Francisco, despite a five-game streak earlier this season in which the team didn't score less than 31 points, isn't as good on offense this year. Still, even with other offensive coordinators who could draw interest as a head coach (Cincinnati's Jay Gruden, Indianapolis' Pep Hamilton and New England's Josh McDaniels being three), Roman's performance in the past few years -- helping make Alex Smith a competent quarterback, molding the offense around Kaepernick last season, getting within a few yards of winning a Super Bowl -- still should make him a hot candidate.
7. Mike Zimmer, Cincinnati Bengals defensive coordinator: The only reason people can figure that Zimmer, whose defenses impress every single season, hasn't received an offer for a head coaching job is because he reportedly doesn't play nice at interviews. He apparently tells the truth, and perhaps, he's too rough when interviewing with owners and general managers. Doesn't suck up as much as he should. Or maybe he just doesn't interview well in general. Either way -- and we said it in this space two years ago -- it's time for Zimmer finally to get his chance. He's more than earned it.
6. Todd Bowles, Arizona Cardinals defensive coordinator: Bowles has been on the precipice of being a head coach the past few seasons. He was the assistant head coach under Tony Sparano in Miami for a number of years, and when Sparano was fired, Bowles took over as interim. After he didn't get the job won by Joe Philbin, Bowles spent last season as the secondary coach in what became a disastrous season in Philadelphia. But Bowles has begun to resurrect himself in Arizona in 2013 with a defense that's hanging out just outside the top-10. And how did Bowles do when he was Miami's interim coach? He won two out of three games and nearly knocked off the eventual AFC champions, New England Patriots . He was impressive then, and he very well could make the same impression if he gets a chance at a head coaching job now.
5. Lovie Smith, former Bears coach: In nine seasons as the Bears head coach, Smith went 81-63 and provided a sense of stability that hadn't been evident in Chicago since Mike Ditka roamed the sidelines. But Smith also only made the playoffs three times, and even though the team went 10-6 in 2012, the Bears again missed the postseason. That led to his dismissal. Apparently Smith is ready to get back to work, reportedly interviewing for the job at USC and landing on lists to return to the NFL as a head coach. He's had success in the past, and Andy Reid's renaissance in Kansas City this season could lead owners to avoid the unknown college coaches and return to a coach like Smith.
4. David Shaw, Stanford coach: Since taking over for Jim Harbaugh after the 2011 season, Shaw's Cardinal teams are a combined 31-5 and he's earned a pair of Pac 12 coach of the year awards. He's quite clearly a capable head coach. Plus, he also has nine years of NFL experience, coaching with the Philadelphia Eagles , Oakland Raiders and Baltimore Ravens . Shaw has said in the past that he's not interested in the NFL, but that, of course, could change if enough money is offered.
3. Jon Gruden, ESPN analyst: It's got to happen one of these years, right? At some point Gruden will want to get out of the Monday Night Football booth and get back on the field, correct? CBSSports.com's Jason La Canfora reports that Gruden most likely would land with the Atlanta Falcons or the Raiders this year if he decides to transition back to coaching. Which has to happen at some point, yes?
2. Ray Horton, Cleveland Browns defensive coordinator: The man who Bowles replaced in Arizona after head coach Ken Whisenhunt and his staff were fired, has moved on to Cleveland, and he's done an impressive job with the Browns. He took a Cardinals defense ranked as one of the worst and made it the 12th-best last season, and after interviewing for three head coaching jobs last offseason, he's taken a Browns defense that lacks stars and turned it into the fifth-best unit in the league. Horton clearly was mad he didn't get a head coaching job last year. You have to think there's a good chance he'll be pleased this offseason.
1. Kevin Sumlin, Texas A&M head coach:At this point of the season, it seems as though everything that happens to Sumlin in the next few months is up to him. He can stay at Texas A&M, with his high-priced salary, and perhaps continue to build an SEC franchise that could eventually turn into an perennial powerhouse. Or he can test himself in the NFL, where seemingly a number of teams would love to see how his offense operates in the pros. Eagles coach Chip Kelly has been up and down since he arrived in the NFL, but that won't stop a desperate owner from salivating at the possibility of discovering if Sumlin can be the one former college coach to change the NFL's landscape.

He plans to make no more paintings with butterflies or larger spots and has only a handful of formaldehyde works he intends to complete.
Speaking as he prepares to sell an estimated £65 million of new work at auction, Hirst, 43, said: "I feel like I've started the series and I have to end them all.
"Stop the butterflies, stop the spots. There's a few works I want to make informaldehyde. I always said I imagined a zoo of dead animals in the beginning."
Among the final works in the formaldehyde series he has dubbed Natural History will be a giant crucified cow.
But he says as soon as he made the decision to stop the series, he immediately thought of new exciting variations - such as spot works with 1.5 mm dots.
"I think I'm ending all the series then you wake up in the night and say, 'What about a cabinet of flies not diamonds?'"
In interviews online and in the catalogue for Sotheby's, which is selling 223 lots of new Hirst works on 15 and 16 September, the artist muses on money, museums and mortality. "I think money's always been something I've thought a lot about. It's one of the big ones," he said. "You can just put it together with love, religion, science, death."
Auctioning so many works at one time was a risk, he said, because it couldgowrong. "I think it takes a bit of courage, or madness, to get to the point where you just cut out the galleries and take a whole load of box-fresh pieces straight to market, no strings, highest bidder wins."
But he thought the market was big enough. "I think potentially it's much, much wider, and everybody's got panicked into thinking you've got to be careful. I don't think you have to be careful. I think the market can take a lot of art, especially if it's good art."
He hoped everything would sell - but even if it went badly, it opened the door to a new way of operating, he said.
Hirst will return to showing through galleries afterwards, but he attacked the experience for potential buyers: "It's really difficult to buy a work in a gallery. They can be snobby and they can look down on you."
Describing himself as "an OAP" and "no longer the enfant terrible," Hirst will not attend the auctions but intends to play snooker, as he did when the contents of the Pharmacy restaurant he co-owned were sold.Reuse content

The Anaheim Angels are close to getting back a significant portion of their disabled rotation with John Lackey and Ervin Santana seeming set to return in short order.
It has been assumed and widely written that the Angels, roundly considered to be either slight favorites or slight underdogs to Oakland for the AL West would just try to weather the storm of injuries through the first two months and then take off once back to full or near full strength. Roughly 30 games into the season, it would seem that they have accomplished that first goal with Oakland seriously floundering and just the pitching-challenged Texas Rangers ahead of them by a mere half a game.
Is the second part of the model going to hold up though? The point here is to look at what has fueled the Angels success so far to date. It certainly hasn't been the offense which has produced at a markedly below league average level and gotten roughly, but still below, league average results on the back of an inflated BABIP. It has not been their gloves either, which also rank below average.
The Angels bullpen has produced some decent fielding independent numbers, but I would still rank them as slightly below average thanks to their near league worst line drive rate allowed. In point, what has been keeping the Angels afloat has precisely been their starting pitching.
Now, nobody is going to argue that getting Anthony Ortega out of the rotation isn't going to be beneficial, but the other displaced member of the rotation is going to have been either Matt Palmer, currently sporting a 4.54 FIP or Shane Loux and his staff leading 3.78 FIP. For reference, John Lackey's FIP last season was 4.53 and he was projected to be around 3.90 before the injury with Ervin Santana at about the same level. A half run of FIP spread over 150 innings amounts to a mere eight runs of difference.
All told, as long as neither Lackey nor Santana get re-hurt or implode or, in the case of Santana, turn back into the 2007 form, adding the pair back into the rotation is probably worth about two wins above what the Angels have currently gotten from their worst two starters. Two wins is a lot in a tight division, but consider that even before the injuries the Angels were not projected to be heads or shoulders above anyone out west.
The Angels are about to get better, yes, but looking at the numbers, the highest probable scenario says that they are not going to simply run away with the AL West. It's a long season yet.

Please log in or register to answer this question. 1 Answer 2 votes The only possibility is that you clicked another move. Misclicks are quite common and you don't always realize you made a mistake until after you did it. Since there is no item that boosts priority and you used a priority move, the only possibility is that you clicked something else. Edit: It could also be Showdown glitching, but I highly doubt it. It rarely ever happens. answered Aug 8, 2014 by JackZero In the case he actually did click Quick Attack, sometimes, when you cancel your current move and pick another one, it doesn't work. That would mean he misclicked on Return for example and he pressed cancel as his opponent was making his move to get Quick Attack. A lot of times, it doesn't actually cancel that move and just goes with the first thing you clicked. commented Aug 8, 2014 by Tysonyoshi Yeah, that's definitely a possibility. It's because of lag, and it mostly happens on the main server. I would say it's either that or a missclick. commented Aug 8, 2014 by JackZero wow, I was right, to bad I didn't answer until it was too late.

As he expanded his cable holdings, John made sure his eldest son learned the business from the ground up. Lee donned spurs and a belt and climbed poles to repair cable problems. Then he moved on to managing a small cable system in Truro, N.S.
Lee was promoted to co-CEO of EastLink in 1999, the year it became the first cable company in Canada to launch home phone service. "All the bankers thought we were crazy," Lee says.
The Braggs turned out to be spectacularly right. EastLink's service won a big share of the lucrative Halifax phone market. Other cable companies, like Rogers Communications Inc. and Shaw Communications Inc., soon copied EastLink's move in their own territories.
Now it's time for EastLink to launch a wireless network. And this time, nobody thinks they're crazy.
Winning roles
A couple of months before the federal government auctioned off wireless spectrum licences in 2008, executives at EastLink began to play a complicated game. They formed themselves into teams, each team representing one of the rival bidders in the upcoming auction.
Under Lee Bragg's direction, the rival teams began to play out a mock auction for the airwaves above EastLink's cable networks. The first time through, things seemed to go smoothly - until another team pounced, tossing in bids for some of the licences that EastLink coveted, forcing the firm to retaliate and drive up the price.
When the mock bids were counted, Lee realized EastLink had drastically overpaid. He and his team repeated the mock auction over and over until they figured out a winning strategy: Don't bid on key targets right out of the gate; throw out false bids to raise what competitors pay; don't get caught paying for a huge chunk of useless spectrum.
When the auction rolled around, "it happened exactly that way," Lee says.
EastLink got a great deal: For only $25-million, the company won licences that cover 85 per cent of the company's cable footprint, which means the company can profit from bundling cellphones on top of its existing cable, Internet and home phone services.
The victory exemplified the savvy of the Bragg family, according to Dean MacDonald, a cable executive who has known the Braggs since the early 1980s. "It came down to their style again, playing it to a plan and making it work," he says.
With its new wireless licences, EastLink is poised to become even more of a threat in Atlantic Canada, where industry insiders say it has already taken huge market share from Bell Aliant Regional Communications Income Fund, which is 45-per-cent-owned by BCE Inc., the industry giant.
Dan McKeen, vice-president of customer solutions at Bell Aliant, knows all about EastLink. He spent 24 years at the Braggs' company, rising to become co-CEO with Lee Bragg in 1999. He moved to Bell Aliant in early 2010. "We understand that it's a very competitive marketplace," Mr. McKeen says in his Halifax office, after declining to discuss his time at EastLink. He insists, though: "It's a marathon, not a sprint."
To win that marathon, Bell Aliant is expanding its fibre-optic network in New Brunswick to roll out its Internet TV product. "It's a threat," one industry veteran said. "They're taking their piece out of EastLink's cable business."
Going West
But EastLink shows no signs of slowing. After buying up swaths of Shaw's Nova Scotia cable properties in 2001, the company went on to execute two big deals in 2007, gaining more than 40,000 subscribers in southwestern and central Ontario with the acquisition of AmTelecom, and then adding Persona Cable Systems, a rural provider with a dilapidated network sprawling across several provinces.
EastLink now serves half-a-million cable subscribers in nine provinces. It is spending heavily to upgrade some of its recently acquired cable systems, particularly the old Persona network, and equip them to sell products such as Internet and home phone service.Report Typo/Error

How To Build an Equal Marriage
An equal marriage is more than a goal — it is a basic human right, says the United Nations.
Women and men have "the same rights and responsibilities during marriage and at its dissolution," declared a UN Convention in the early 1990s when the UN celebrated the International Year of the Family.
A marriage between equals also builds stronger families, the declaration stressed: "A stable family is one which is based on principles of equity, justice and individual fulfillment for each member."
How to achieve equality in marriage?
The UN suggests that one of the main building blocks is giving the same weight to what each partner contributes – whether or not that contribution can be measured in currency. Traditionally in all countries, including the United States, domestic activities have been treated as inferior, but times have changed. "As such activities are invaluable for the survival of society, there can be no justification for applying different and discriminatory laws or customs to them."
Marriage support; here are some other basics we think will help you in building a strong marriage based on equality:
- Put in writing that your marriage is an equal partnership and keep that agreement current.
- Hold family assets like real estate and bank accounts jointly.
- Know and understand each and every aspect of your financial lives.
- Know and be able to appreciate what the other does – whether it is raising children or razing buildings.
- Respect and honor life choices made by each other.
- Make time to talk frankly about your finances and your feelings no matter how pressured daily life becomes.

Foster Care & Adoptions
Let Love Define Family
Watch and listen for "Let Love Define a Family" street banners and media campaigns beginning November 16th! Bienvenidos has joined a collaborative Resource Family recruitment initiative with RaiseAChild, a non profit organization that is launching a major recruitment drive throughout the greater Los Angeles area. All of Southern California will be hearing and learning about the benefits of building families through fostering, adopting, and weekend hosting. In this, its largest collaborative radio campaign to date, listeners of KOST, KCRW, KPCC, KLVE, KTNQ, and KPBS will learn about our upcoming "Let Love Define Family®" recruitment event schedule. In Los Angeles and Long Beach, these radio ads are reinforced with robust streetlight banner campaigns. In December, Bienvenidos will participate in two evening events in West Hollywood and Long Beach. All around the country, the RaiseAChild Huffington Post Gay Voice series and social media efforts are raising awareness as well.
Martial Arts & Leadership Program
Foster Care & Adoptions Martial Arts & Leadership students are broadening their horizons and acquiring leadership skills! On November 8th, students toured the Los Angeles County Arboretum and learned about native species from all over the world. What followed was a discussion about "seeds" – and that each of us has "seeds" of family, culture and life experience that influence our behavior and our choices. As for martial arts training, we are witnessing its impact. One of our students received a "Star of the Month" award at school, several have begun advocating for themselves, and four have been promoted in rank from white belt to yellow belt. These rank promotions are merit-based, and demand a demonstration of having learned basic etiquette, Japanese terminology and basic karate techniques. Congratulations to all our students!
Office Relocation to Pasadena
Montclair Foster Care & Adoptions staff thank IT and Facilities for supporting a major "musical offices" move to accommodate the growth of our Division! We have seen an increase in number of our new Resource Families, and, as a result, the ever-growing number of children and youth we are able to welcome into our care means we are growing our number of staff. Our IT, Facilities and Montclair team consolidated office space to make way for new staff coming on board. And incredibly, despite the upheaval, we welcomed six new children through the course of the day.
One could think it was the doughnuts and pizza that made for the laughter and great spirit… but we do believe it is truly the unflagging commitment to what we do. We'd like to acknowledge the following team members for their continued service and commitment to our Bienvenidos Family: Alex, Robert, Mike and Steve, Theresa, Grissy, Emily, Laura, Larry, Leandra, Yolie, Leslie, Maribel, Laura, Cynthia, Nidia and Elizabeth. You are an example of our mission in action!
Community Services
Mujeres de Paz Candlelight Vigil
Bienvenidos proudly participated in the 17th Annual Candlelight March and Vigil to raise domestic violence awareness last month. The East Los Angeles community came together to mark this auspicious event; approximately 100 participants marched down Cesar Chavez Avenue chanting "No More Violence."
Domestic violence is often more than just physical abuse. It encompasses sexual, emotional, economic and psychological violence. Initially, identifying the signs of an abusive relationship can be difficult, especially if the cycle of violence may have started early on in the relationship. Understanding common occurrences or patterns in an unhealthy relationship and being able to begin an informed conversation is a major step to healing and helping others to join in understanding why and how domestic violence occurs. For more information, please call us at (323) 726-9790.
East Los Angeles Empowerment Congress – Community Day of Service
Bienvenidos, and other members of the East Los Angeles Empowerment Congress (ELAEC), continue to dedicate their time and effort to quarterly community days of service. On this particular day, some volunteers took to the streets to sweep up litter while others dedicated their efforts to paint a home for a well-deserved family. The ELAEC, comprised of elected officials, local non-profit organizations, small business owners, homeowners and residents from East Los Angeles, is part of Assemblymember Jimmy Gomez' initiative to bring together stakeholders with the community in an effort to improve vibrant East Los Angeles.

This course was terrible - was unable to move through the program & all the he did was read - even repeated the age group levels. Aweful
ACE RESPONSE: An ACE representative will be in contact with your shortly to discuss your specific concerns. Thank you for your feedback.
i loved it so much and its really helpfull to me
great learning tool for seniors
Good, basic overview for the kinds of issues you would encounter in working with this population. Also includes good "talking points" for how to encourage a beginning exerciser in this group to start training and keep with it.
ACE Response: Thank you for your feedback!
It is a good course if your just starting out in working with seniors. If you have experience working with seniors you might not get as much out of this course as you would like. I would definitely recommend for beginners in working with seniors. Though is a good refresher course if you have experience working with seniors.
Great course. Lots of relative information that can be used in everyday training with the older adult.
Pretty good course. I would like to see more training for people in the 85 - 100 age range. I work with many clients in nursing homes or in-home care where strength training is definitely beneficial.
Good for a trainer with less working experience (or someone that hasn't trained senior adults). Otherwise, the course is a nice review.
Good solid introduction. Small point, on the YMCA leg test used in the course the calculations forget to mention you need to times the number by 100 to get a percentage that can be compared to the table of results provided. Might confuse someone if maths was not a strong point.
The information included in this presentation will be very beneficial to anyone who trains older adults.
I gave this course an average rating because the instructional photos in the "Recommended Exercises for Seniors" were poorly taken. The exercise descriptions reference "start position" while the pictures are taken from angles which provide no frame of reference. For example, the Chest Press section recommends placing feet on the floor - meanwhile the woman photographed has her feet on the bench.
I feel more confident working with my senior clients, because of this course. So I would recommend it. However, with a population in which proper form is so fundamental to success, the poor use of photography and lack of "start position" descriptions are disappointing.
Ok, first off, the quiz froze and I was not able to answer a question. Thank goodness I knew the rest of the answers or else that could of been bad. The class was very simple which I liked and great for beginners working with older adults. It reminded me of college lecture notes which again, I prefer as oppose to research study papers. Good & easy course.
Clear, easy to follow guidelines and complete handouts of the material. Very useful information.
It was okay but not as in-depth as I expected
Some of the content seemed very basic & the audio delivery was very slow. I would have preferred more specifics on working with seniors and why instructors should instruct in certain ways; ie, what aspects of aging require instructors to teach in a certain way. More options for strength would be nice as well, maybe resistance bands, and more specific choices for programming.
Excellent course.
The only issue was with navigation. Sometimes the audio played, but a lot of times, I had to select play on it...great information though.
Would recommend to others. Very informative.

How do I start. I spend my life visiting venues and hotels around the world and it takes a lot to impress me.
From my first contact with the Owner of Maison MK, the experience has been an absolute pleasure. Before arriving, my special requests were taken and every element of my stay was executed to perfection. On arrival at the hotel late on a Friday evening I was greeted by staff, offered a fresh orange juice, before being given the guided tour of the facilities. We stayed in the Master Suite, which was sizeable and well designed. The hotel has a modern moroccan design, fusion contemporary british design influences with Moroccan colours and architecture. After the tour, we were left to get ready before our light moroccan supper was served, which we had preordered before arrival. Omar the Chef is a fantastic cook. Having eaten circa 10+ tagines previously, both the chicken and the lamb tagines were perfect.
Highly spiced and flavoursome - you can get some quite poor tagines in most touristy parts of morocco. The dinner was served with a bottle of prosecco we requested, and the service was attentive.
I woke up for a 10am Hammam and Massage treatment that I would highly recommend. The massage was outstanding actually, compared to Mandarin Oriental Spa's I have visited, it was probably once of the most enjoyable massages I have ever had.
For the rest of the day, we decided to stay in the 'Maison' relaxing. Drinks were brought to us while basking in the sun, and the light lunch was tasty. There was background music, Hotel Costes/Buddha Bar style playing which added to the chilled modern vibe. I was sitting around the pool wondering what makes this hotel what it is - its the staff. Nothing ever seems too much, they are friendly, attentive and happy to have long conversations with you about anything, however also give you the right amount of space when you need it. Dinner tonight was at Gastro MK. We had first option on where we wanted to sit for dinner, and opted for the smaller private dining room, which was intimate and cosy. The food was a 5 course tasting menu - and all the courses were very nice. I have to say, the tagine won me over on the first night, but the tasting menu had a slightly more modern european feel to it, and was a nice change. The rest of the stay continued with as flawless service as the first 24 hours - everything was pefect. I could not recommend this hotel highly enough, and not only will I be sure to return, I would have no hesitation recommending it to anyone. So, after finishing writing this review in the sun on the Roof Terrace at Maison MK I am going to now enjoy my final lunch before the airport trip!

Introducing: Second Nature
I'm thrilled to introduce my most ambitious body of work to date, Second Nature. Made over 3 years entirely in Maine, these still and moving images address our changing relationship with Nature, from engagement to simulation.
I wondered how living increasingly in an interior environment, in what author Richard Louv describes as an "electronic bubble," would affect how we engage, perceive and recall Nature. I wanted to raise important questions about how we relate to Nature in a time of great environmental uncertainty and question photography's role in this changing relationship.
Introducing: What's Lost is Found
I'm very happy to share a new body of work, What's Lost is Found, a series of photographs made in May, 2015 as the inaugural Artist-in-Residence for The Do Good Fund, a non-profit based in Columbus, Georgia, whose mission is to collect and exhibit photographs taken in the American South since World War II. The residency was based in Hale County, Alabama, the heart of the Black Belt and sacred terrain for any photographer.
10 photographs from the residency are being added to The Do Good Fund's collection. This work would not have been possible without Do Good's generous support.
Current Exhibition: Birmingham Museum of Art
What's Lost is Found is now showing at the Birmingham Museum of Art, curated by Wassan Al-Khudhairi, Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art. The exhibition has been extended and will now run through June 11, 2017.

First it was drug-smuggling sky marshals and drunk pilots. Today it's the apparent failure of security screeners in 21 airports to detect bomb-making materials during a federal investigation. Is just me or are we no safer today than we were in 2001?
"In all 21 airports tested, no machine, no swab, no screener anywhere stopped the bomb materials from getting through," says a report on MSNBC's website.
The Transportation Security Administration's (TSA) response? "Detecting explosive materials and IEDs at the checkpoint is TSA's top priority."
Uh-huh. You might want to get right on that then.

This isn't what I signed up for. (continued)Mature
It was after school and Shane wasn't allowed to go anywhere. He was stuck inside with his mom. She was really serious about this being the final straw. She had picked him up from school, again, and she'd informed him that he was now going to meet his junior parole officer. Hopefully, the meeting tonight wouldn't be lame. As Shane sat staring at the floor, his mom was busy getting ready. He wasn't allowed to watch TV. It was part of being grounded. The time was nearing six and his mom was rushing him into the car.
As he got in, she was taking deep breaths. It was almost as if she were hyperventilating.
"Mom, calm down. You shouldn't be the one freaking out," he commented, buckling up.
"I know, I'm just nervous for you. I don't want you to insult your parole officer, okay?" she replied, backing out of the drive way.
Shane nodded and stared out the window. Maybe actually trying this time wouldn't be so bad. Maybe he would succeed this time. That would make his mom proud for once.
When they reached the school, he took a deep breath and exited the car. He waited for his mom and followed her to the room where the meeting was to be. Standing outside of the room, was Megan. He recognized her right away. She was always with Kenney and they were best friends. As he entered the room, he remembered the past week. He'd seen Kennedy in the hall, but she wasn't smiling like usual. She looked sad and she wasn't wearing her good clothes. She stuck with sweats and flip flops. She put no effort into getting ready. The whole week he wanted to ask her what had happened that day. He remembered seeing her like this last year. She was sad because he dog had died. The way she was now, was like how she had been then. It was almost scary.
Finally the meeting was about to start. He looked at the door and wondered if he could make a mad dash for it. Just as he looked up, Megan walked into the room...followed by Kennedy. Why was she here? She looked so sad and she seemed to be tired. His eyes followed her as she sat down and read a packet. This would be interesting.
"Mom," he whispered, tugging his mom's elbow. "Who did you pick for my parole officer?"
"We don't get to pick. The teacher is coming around right now to assign them," she replied, nodding at the teacher.
The teacher took one look at Shane and then looked at the parole officers.
"Go to Kennedy. She's the most capable," stated the teacher, moving on to the next family.
Shane cringed at the comment. Was he that bad in other people's eyes? He shook his head and walked towards Kennedy. At least he had a kind person to work with. When he sat down, he saw a range of emotions flicker in her eyes.
"Hey, I remember you," he smirked, winking at her. "How's life?"
She seemed to snap out of her thoughts when he spoke.
"It sucks. Okay, I'm Kennedy," she replied, shaking his mom's hand. "I'm going to be your junior parole officer."
Shane listened to his mother and Kennedy talk. Kennedy started off by saying how she heard that he was uncontrollable and that she may not be so successful. It kind of hurt to hear that. He really was that bad in other people's eyes. Eventually he had no interest in what they were talking about, because the subject was purely him. He listened dully to his mother's story about him and felt a stab of pain. He really did need to try to become clean and sober. His mother's sanity seemed to depend on it. He only participated in the signing of the contract and then sat still for the rest of the time.
After awhile, it was time for the parents to leave. Shane watched as his mom didn't want to leave him. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of him," spoke up Kennedy.
Shane watched his mom nod and hug him. Kennedy had reassured his mom when he couldn't. Guilt set itself in his mind. Why couldn't he comfort his own mother?
"Shane, your mom loves you," Kennedy commented, handing him a paper with he number on it.
He took the paper and put it in his pocket.
"I know," he replied.
"Call me if you need someone to talk to, or if you're too messed up to get home," she stated, patting his arm. "You have to try for your mom, okay?"
Kennedy knew it too. Shane just nodded and bit his lip. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say. The rest of the time he enjoyed playing in the activities. He wanted to cooperate with Kennedy so that she didn't feel like she was failing. Time seemed to go by quickly as they got to know each other.
When it was time to go, Shane watched as Kennedy said goodbye to Megan. Should he walk with her? She was already heading down his street. Without thinking he spoke out.
"Kennedy, wait up!"
She walked slower as he caught up with her.
"Are you stalking me now?" she teased, a small smile tugging at the corners of her lips.
"Funny. No, I live down this street," he replied, shoving his hands in his pockets.
He did that whenever he was nervous or whenever he was uncomfortable.
"I didn't know that," she muttered, frowning slightly. "Which house is yours?"
He pointed to his house and watched as she examined it. What was she thinking? He was curious to know, but he enjoyed watching her think. Her eyebrows furrowed cutely as she thought. Her eyes were almost shining in the dim lamp light. She smiled slightly and then looked back up at him.
"Oh. Nice house. I guess I will see you tomorrow," she commented, holding that slight smile. "I live further down that way, so, yeah..."
Further down the street? Should he let her walk alone at this time of night? His mom had tried to raise him properly and he had blown it all away, but he remembered that girls shouldn't walk home alone at night. It was very unsafe for them now-a-days with rapists around every corner.
"I'll walk you the rest of the way. It's not safe at night," he commented, walking with her.
She just nodded her head and continued to walk. He watched her think again. A small, cute crease formed between her eyebrows as she thought. He was almost sure that he could sense relief in her eyes. Maybe she was glad that he was with her. It made him satisfied to think that she might. As he thought that, he wondered about his question from earlier.
"Hey, Kennedy...I was wondering...why were you crying that day when you bumped into me?" he asked, trying to look her in the eye.
He was sure that he looked awkward. When he normally talked to people, he avoided eye contact. Now he saw that she experiencing a range of emotions. He was sure he saw shock and anger, but maybe deep in her eyes he saw a flicker of fear. She stopped walking and took a breath. Then she continued to walk.
"I was crying because my boyfriend broke up with me down at that park," she confessed finally.
"Oh I'm sorry. Why did he break up with you?"
"He told me that we live to far apart and that we barely get to see each other. He wasn't even the one trying to come see me. I was the one making the effort."
A little flash of anger and curiosity flew through Shane's mind.
"Where does he live?"
"By the mall."
Now the anger was starting to set it. The mall wasn't that far away. Certainly not over half an hour. It would almost be understandable if he lived farther away than that.
"That's not that far. What an ass. Look, I'm sorry that you got dumped, but maybe it was a good thing. This guy doesn't sound all that great. He never made an effort to come see you."
"Yeah. He text me yesterday letting me know that he had a new girlfriend."
He stopped walking and stared at her. Kennedy stared back at him. Shane wanted to ask for this guy's exact address so he could go and teach him some manners. It was kind of ironic how he would be the one teaching manners, when had very little of his own.
"Well, this is my house. Thanks for walking me home. It was very sweet of you," she finally said, almost breathless.
Shane saw that she was hurt. She was good at trying to hide it, but she wasn't that good. He saw in the way she turned and how her lip was almost quivering. Whoever this guy was that hurt her, Shane was going to make him sorry he ever did.
Reaching forward, Shane wrapped his arms around Kennedy's shoulders. He pressed his cheek against the top of her head and closed his eyes. It wasn't fair that she was being treated like dirt.
"I'm sorry that happened to you, Kennedy. You don't deserve to be treated like that. You're so kind to people. I mean, look what you're doing for me. You're going to try and help me stay clean. Don't pay any attention to him, okay? He's a prick."
He hugged her close to him as she started to cry. She sobs shook her body and he felt a strong pain for her. The thought of her hurting over this guy made him upset. Kennedy was really an unselfish person who only cared about others. She was never the one to get in fights with people and she tried to help everyone she could. He never really knew her before this school year, but he knew about her. He was ready to be there for her now that she was there for him.
When Kennedy's sobs finally ceased, he let her go. As he walked home, he thought of what just happened. Kennedy's explanation for why her boyfriend had broken up with her just didn't make sense. The distance wasn't that long. A dark thought entered his head. He had used this excuse one time a while ago for a girl who just wouldn't leave him alone and he wanted to date someone else. For him though, the excuse made more sense. He lived over thirty minutes away from her. He had told the girl that he lived to far away and that he just couldn't date her anymore. She had taken it pretty hard. This had to be what was going on now. Kennedy's now-ex boyfriend was using the distance excuse so that he could go out with someone else.
Shane looked around and found a wooden fence. He punched it, leaving a broken board and his fist bloody. This guy who hurt Kennedy was going down. He wouldn't get away with this.

Three Best Practices for Navigating the Internet of Things
We've all seen enough science fiction, and new gadgets coming to market, to envision the approaching world of smart homes, cars and appliances that can automate our personal lives.
In reality, the Internet of Things (IoT) holds perhaps the greatest potential for corporations.
The concept is not new – telemetry, for example, arose in the 19th century. But widespread broadband and new narrowband options, increasingly small and cheap sensors, and new machine-to-machine connectivity are creating powerful possibilities for organizations to fine-tune or even revamp their business.
The IoT is an opportunity, but it's also a mandate. Manufacturers, retailers and other companies whose core business involves producing or handling physical objects must adopt IoT to compete effectively over the next 5-10 years. According to Baseline Magazine, about two thirds of corporate IoT adopters seek to reduce cost, 22% to manage risk, and 13% to innovate or grow.
The IoT will force substantial changes to how IT works today. Reasons for this include the following:
- Data containers (i.e., software-based digital files) are proliferating, in part because RFID tags and other sensors have so few bytes. The EMC/IDC Report on the Digital Universe noted in April 2014 that "the number of "containers" is growing faster than the number of petabytes, from 28 quadrillion in 2010 to 4,200 in 2020." Consolidating the data within them will require new skills and technologies.
- The time value of data will be even higher, prompting the need for faster, even real-time analytics. IoT is based on sensors that capture moments in time: consider factory pressure gauges, traffic patterns or point of sale transactions by an identity thief. The real-time imperative means that organizations must quicken and ideally automate their data loading and analytical processes.
- The Internet of Things extends beyond the cloud or data center. Data collection, analysis and the resulting actions will require close teamwork with field technicians or other stakeholders that might not have engaged IT professionals in the past.
So how should IT practitioners and management approach IoT? While this trend cuts across verticals and geographies, here are three standard best practices to follow.
- Base your IoT strategy on corporate strategy and not vice versa. This mantra, used in many other technology discussions, bears repeating. The temptation for departmental science experiments can run high given the hyperbole surrounding IoT. But as with Big Data and opportunities to innovate, business objectives and strategy should dictate the plan for IT. If a business unit is going to test an IoT theory, they should do so with a decision tree and funding that executives have blessed.
- Invite your line workers to brainstorm. More than ever you'll need the insights of staffers that have a variety of technical insights about how your company can play sensor-based data to competitive advantage. Mechanical engineers that run oil rigs and other heavy equipment might not be typical partners of IT, but still have the best ideas about how to combine data to improve operations.
- Use the most flexible repository possible, and invest in mobility. New IoT data sources and formats are harder to handle. Companies will need more flexible repositories to be able to extract intelligence from all the pieces. Hadoop Data Lakes can be a good starting point because Hadoop can receive data in its raw format. But Hadoop has some limitations, as Michael Hausenblas with MapR points out in a recent article in DataInformed, and some analytics exercises will require distinct repositories. Work closely with your IT organization to align your target data, their formats and your analytical goals. And shop for software solutions that can automatically move data across a wide range of platforms.
Established tech vendors are investing heavily to help enterprises navigate the complexity of the IoT. SAP announced this week new HANA Big Data Intelligence capabilities for enabling organizations to rapidly ingest and analyze data from a variety of sources, using the HANA platform with its Event Stream Processor, SAP IQ software and Apache Hadoop. While HANA's in-memory processing is a natural fit for in-line analytics, SAP clearly understands the need to embrace new IoT data sources and platforms.
As you invest in IoT, focus on corporate strategy, enlist your broader workforce, and stay flexible with your infrastructure.

ABs: Hore 'let the nation down'
9:46 AM Thursday Nov 29, 2012
A remorseful Andrew Hore says he let the nation down with his swinging arm challenge that knocked out Welsh lock Bradley Davies and that he deserves the five-week suspension with which he's been administered. Hore pleaded guilty to the charge of striking Davies in the first minute of the All Blacks' 33-10 victory in Cardiff last Sunday and was handed an eight-week suspension that was reduced to five on the grounds he has shown genuine remorse by apologising to Davies and his previously clean record.

Yes. In the light of the children bill, every local authority has to integrate its children's social services care with its education department by April 2006.
So do I need to be a current director of education to get the job?
Not necessarily, but you will lead the current functions of the education department while shaping the team that has been put in place to develop its integrated children's service. You will undoubtedly have proven education or children's services' experience at senior management level.
I hear that Nottingham is no longer best known for Robin Hood?
I'm afraid it's fast being labelled the gun crime capital. There have been seven gun murders in the past two years, including that of 14-year-old Danielle Beccan this month, but the police say it is no worse than in any other UK city.
How could I help to challenge the gun culture?
Police have asked for a partnership with councils, schools and youth services to protect young people and stop them being dragged into gun crime.
Wouldn't I already be working with those partners?
Yes. The job is about developing a multiagency service that extends learning opportunities and ensures community and family support for the city's children.
What's the reward?
Financially, it's a whopping £120k.
Don't say: Nottingham has always been a lawless place.
Do say: I hear Sherwood Forest is beautiful at this time of year.

Essential Information
Students interested in aerospace engineering can pursue online graduate degrees or participate in individual classes to enrich their understanding of a particular aerospace subject. Degrees offered include the Master of Engineering (M.Eng.) and the Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering (MSAE) degrees, which may or may not require a thesis.
Because aerospace engineers research, design and oversee the production of complex machines, such as commercial and military airplanes, spacecraft and missile systems, they often find employment with governmental agencies or defense contractors.
Online Aerospace Engineering Courses
The following course descriptions provide an overview of the aerospace engineering courses commonly offered online.
- Aerospace Mechanics Course: This course discusses the fundamental laws of mass, momentum and energy and how these laws relate to the deformation and strain placed on aircrafts. Students learn about linear and nonlinear aircraft and spacecraft control issues. Principles of equilibrium, geometric compatibility and composite material behaviors are also covered.
- Aerospace Mathematics Course: Students in this course explore mathematical models for designing and optimizing the aerodynamic and structural stiffness of aircraft wings. These mathematic models and variations are used to reduce instability and create steady flight. Online participants also study static aeroelasticity and structural instability, the principal causes for loss of wing lift.
- Aerospace Environments Course: The various environments that spacecrafts pass through and the dangers associated with each are central to this course. Topics include the consequences of working in unfiltered sunlight and solar wind, the hazards of orbital debris, and the shielding dangers of re-entry through the upper atmosphere.
- Air and Space Craft Design Course: This introductory course explores the design and cost aspects of reusable high-speed aircraft and space vehicles. Online students will be expected to design a craft and write a cost analysis proposal to accompany the design. Candidates study historical designs and design proofing methods to help them realize their projects.
- Space Habitat Course: This class emphasizes the factors affecting living organisms in weak gravity environments and examines spacecraft design for human occupancy. Students learn the objectives and challenges associated with human space exploration and the physiological conditions that must be considered when designing life support systems for space travel.
- Space Flight Course: Vehicular test systems and flight simulations are central to this introductory space flight course. Topics include celestial mechanics, transfer and rendezvous, space navigation, trajectory design and orbital determination. Students also learn about established flight test practices and the experiences of well-known designers and test pilots.
- Orbit Mechanics Course: This course explores the dynamics of orbits and trajectory design. Students are introduced to Lambert's theorem, along with the gravitational and motion integral laws of Newton and Kepler. Students also study orbital dynamics to understand their relation to spacecraft motion, maneuvers and mission design.

Story Behind this Recipe
Since I'm a mochi lover, I was so thrilled when this was served at dinner. At my insistence, my mom served it one more time, but that was it. When I asked why, she said it was too troublesome to deep fry. Then I recalled that she didn't like preparing foods that were deep-fried since it would make a mess.
So, now that I'm married, I make these to my heart's content!

Sebi suspends Dynamic Stock Broking for three months
The market regulator had conducted an inspection of books and other records of Dynamic Stock for the period April 1, 2008 to March 31, 2009. The inspection was carried out from May 4-8, 2009.
Mumbai; Sebi on Tuesday suspended registration of Dynamic Stock Broking for three months for non-compliance with various stock market regulations.
The market regulator had conducted an inspection of books and other records of Dynamic Stock for the period April 1, 2008 to March 31, 2009. The inspection was carried out from May 4-8, 2009.
The inspection revealed "several non-compliances of rules, regulations, guidelines and circulars issued by Sebi and the BSE by Dynamic and procedural and regulatory lapses in its functioning".
Subsequently, the market regulator had initiated proceedings against Dynamic Stock and also appointed a Designated Authority (DA) to enquire about the alleged lapses.
In an order on Sunday, Sebi Whole Time Member Rajeev Kumar Agarwal said "the certificate of registration granted to Dynamic Stock Broking", a member of BSE, was being suspended for a period of three months.
According to Agarwal, some of the contraventions such as allowing use of its terminal by persons who are not at the pay-roll and discrepancies in the KYC processes, as established against the noticee (Dynamic Stock), pose a prudential threat to the integrity and functioning of the securities market.
In his report dated March 30, 2010, the DA had recommended that the certificate of registration of Dynamic be suspended for a period of three months.
"In my view, considering the facts and circumstances of this case and taking into account the interests of the investors, the action as recommended by the Designated Authority (DA) in his Report is commensurate with the lapses, non-compliances, contraventions and violations committed by the noticee," the order said.

Ukraine a proxy war for U.S. and Russia?
- published: 23 Apr 2014
- views: 1114
The Ukraine may be bracing for a full-scale invasion by Russia, but a coming war may be both more subtle and more dangerous than most people believe. Since Vladimir Putin took control of Crimea, militia forces have seized city council and local government offices around the Ukraine. These soldiers of fortune have no insignia and do not acknowledge an allegiance to either Moscow or Kiev. The interim government in the Ukrainian capital announced it has secured support from the United States to eliminate the militants. Volodymyr Rybak, a local politician, was recently found dead, showing signs of physical torture. This incident has caused the Ukrainian government to resume what it describes as an \"anti-terrorist\" operation in the eastern half of their country. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov expressed suspicions about the timing of the announcement. He said it was \"quite telling\" the governemnt in Kiev \"chose the moment of the Vice President of the US\' visit to announce the resumption of this operation.\" (2) Vice President Joe Biden recently completed a trip to Kiev, where he announced a $50 million aid package for the Ukraine. This includes $8 million in non-lethal assistance for armed forces of the interim government. The United States will also be moving 600 additional troops to eastern European nations in response to the crisis, according to the Pentagon. Ukraine\'s First Deputy Prime Minister Vitaly Yarema said, \"We have secured US support and they will not leave us face to face with the aggressor.\" (1) A pact to maintain peace in the eastern parts of ...

The PCB high quality just like all the other Bds.
It's a great little kit its as it was WFT kit too. (Works First Time).
I've not used surface mount components for over 20 years.
(Development engineer to firmware / software engineer conversion)
I used an old Weller TCP iron with 22swg multi core solder didn't have flux so tinned all pads except the chip. Borrowed a pair of eye lash tweezers from the better half.
Soldered it with the exception the chip without an eye glass, for the chip I used 3.5x magnification head set (Rolson head set from CPC farnel).
Didn't need solder wick which was lucky as I didn't have any.
I did get all of the components positioned so you could read them left to right ;-)
For any one in the UK .
I made the mistake of buying the Arduino Raw PCB Kit as I had most of bits in the shed I now know buying Zacks full Arduino kit is by far the cheaper and quicker option.
Stepper Motor Driver v1.1 PCBs
Tip: I replaced the 4k7 resistors with zerohms and did not fit the 1nf caps.
For two good reasons I hadn't got any 1nf caps and the application notes for the L298 makes no suggestion of needing to filter ringing on the current sence pins. These components would only be needed if a wire wound 0.5 ohm resistors were used. The L298 application notes advise against using a wire wound resistor.
NB A zerohms is a wire link that looks like an 1/8 w resistor mine are yellow will post a picture of some. they may not be made any more I haven't looked.
Bertha is made from MDF with some old ball-bearing draw slides don't know how accurate this will be, I can't feel any play on any of the axis.
