Call it the paradox of the connected workforce: If it is easier than ever to connect with our colleagues, customers and collaborators, then why do we still find it so challenging to actually work together and get things done? Many of us spend the majority of our working hours in meetings, on the phone or responding to emails, yet if we crunch the numbers, we often have little return to show for that substantial time investment. That's because collaboration is inefficient and culture is hard to get right. Data shows that in many organizations, the most helpful employees are suffering from collaborative overload, and so-called "star performers" often do little to help their colleagues. At the same time, despite leadership's best efforts to be mission-driven and values-focused, developing a strong workplace culture is still more of a mystery than an established practice supported by analysis and insights. "Collaboration" and "culture" are big buzzwords for a reason—when done right, they can make work more productive and more meaningful.
In 2004, the USA Olympic Men's Basketball team was shocked and humiliated, barely winning the bronze metal. The team was comprised of top NBA players so skills and talent were not the issue. In organizations of all kinds, we make great efforts to hire the best into our teams, assuming that top talent will bring top results, later to often wonder "What went wrong?" Extraordinary teams are positioned for robust and sustainable success, able to adapt and bounce back from setbacks, operate seamlessly even when navigating new territory, and meet new challenges with enthusiasm. With a framework grounded in the latest findings in neuroscience, we will use the profound example of a leader who applied these strategies to shape such a team, and we will discuss what other leaders can do to shape their own extraordinary teams.

Country Legend Glen Campbell Diagnosed with Alzheimer's
Sad news arrived this morning as we learned that one of country music's all-time greats, Glen Campbell, has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. His new album will be released in August and it will be his final recording. Glen is also planning a farewell tour and wanted the news out there so fans wouldn't wonder about unusual behavior they might witness on the stage.
When I learned the news and Glen's age–75 years old–I just kept thinking how weird that was because he has always seemed like a young guy to me. I guess it's that type of attitude that gives us the old saying, "You're only as old as you feel." And that suits Glen to a tee. I've never seen him when his big personality wasn't front and center. And it was that personality that made his TV variety series in the late 60s and early 70s such a big hit. Speaking of big hits, Glen loaded up the country, pop, and adult contemporary charts with his fair share for three decades. I would imagine we'll be hearing more and more of these songs over the next few years as we track Glen's progress, send him our prayers, and wish he and his family all the best.

I've always been curious about the magic that happens behind the scenes of film and TV, particularly the makeup and hair styling that transforms our actors into their on screen characters.
Recently I was contacted by the publicist for Leslie Graham, a 'Hollywood' makeup artist who had recently relocated to Australia (and now the Program Coordinator for TMT School of Makeup ). Luckily for us, Leslie was happy to give a backstage makeup breakdown for one of the makeup looks she did for the film 'Sucker Punch'.
To achieve a similar look you can use the following-

Jake and Dinos Chapman - known for their shocking sculptures - were named on Thursday as this year's winners of the annual Charles Wollaston award at the London academy.
Their winning exhibit is entitled The Marriage of Reason and Squalor. The bronze sculpture is painted to look like clay. On one side it depicts an elephant's face and a pig's on the other.
The Royal Academy's Summer Show is one of the largest open contemporary art exhibitions in the world.
Anyone can enter a work, with the result that the exhibition is respected for its enviable mix of work from the celebrated and the obscure.
The Chapman brothers are one of the better-known exhibitors in this year's show.
They were also shortlisted for the 2003 Turner Prize. But the Charles Wollaston is their first major art prize.
Their work mixes imagery from diverse sources in an attempt to challenge taboos and accepted reasoning.
A number of the Chapman brothers' best-known works were included in the Royal Academy's successful, but controversial, Sensation exhibition.
It included diverse works from Charles Saatchi's Young British Artists collection.
Many of these are now on display in the new Saatchi Gallery at County Hall.
The Charles Wollaston award-winner is chosen by an independent panel of judges from the 1,242 exhibits on show.
The Summer Exhibition 2003 also includes works by internationally acclaimed artists such as Georg Baselitz, Peter Blake, David Mach and Robert Rauschenberg and the top UK architect Sir Norman Foster.

Tech 1/2 vs diagnostic/tuning software..
As the clusterf*** that is my fuel pump comes to a close (should get the car back on Monday), my thoughts again return to the plans I have for the car..
As it stands, I'm now in a position to start looking for bi-directional PCM diagnostic/programmers. Question is, do any of you have experience with the Tech 1/2's or aldl connector/software combos for an OBD1 '94? My base tune when I'm ready will be sourced out, but I'd like to have control over the inevitable fine tuning and slow "upping of the ante" that'll be required. I'd actually prefer a PC based solution since I'll be integrating one into the car, but both will work depending on reliability. PC software doesn't necessarily need to be free - I don't mind paying for something that gives me control, but I also don't want to spend an arm and a leg doing so when a Tech1 can be found as cheap as it can with a little bit of research.. That said, a good software package that lets me visualize guages on a screen without looking "cheap" I'd pay more for..
I realize this forum is more about the preservation of these cars and not the massive hot-rodding plans I have in mind, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask.
On a side note, if anyone has a lead on a LT1 4 bolt main block out of a truck within reasonable driving distance from central southern ontario, I'd be *very* interested in finding out the details.. The more stripped it is, the better - I can't use any stock components..
Re: Tech 1/2 vs diagnostic/tuning software..
Last part first. LT1s never went in trucks. The only 4 bolt blocks went in Vettes and SLP F bodies. The Impala guys have proven two bolt blocks are fine well into the mid 500hp range. Scanning/programming. I use a cable from AKM, my laptop. Software: Freescan, Datamaster (both to scan and log). Tunercat to read and program the PCM. You can do much more with that than you can do with a Tech 1/2. Google those three pieces of software, and you'll see what they can do.
Re: Tech 1/2 vs diagnostic/tuning software..
I guess I misread this.. I was reading up on Joe Alameddine's motor since he's closest to what I'm shooting for in the long run.. I've since found more details on the block used.. One can dream
"Starting with a four-bolt-main truck block (the two-bolt-main stock LT1 block was ditched), ..."
Thanks for the heads up on the software.. So far it all looks good.. TunerproRT seems popular with the camaro guys too..
Re: Tech 1/2 vs diagnostic/tuning software..
Ordered the cable.. narrowing down the software but it looks like I'm going with what you recommended..
That said, do you know if there's any improvement to be had on the factory tune? Either from a mileage -or- power perspective? I assume these tunes tend to be fairly conservative from the factory
Re: Tech 1/2 vs diagnostic/tuning software..
Yes, you can improve either way. My SS runs a power tune for 91/93 octane with advanced timing (among other parameters). A good way to get going is to compare your stock tune to modded ones to see where the differences are. There are lots of things to play with...

1. It doesn't take ANY courage to modify your appearance in order to please/impress a group of people you're trying to be part of. That's called conformity, and it doesn't matter how vastly it differs from any traditional "norm".
2. There's absolutely NO way to tell what this "individual" (and I use the term ironically) believes or stands for. The only safe guess is that he hasn't put much thought into it.

Oh, Lars Von Trier. I think most people hear more about his films before seeing them than any other filmmaker's. And people often don't like them. Von Trier is a genius in that he can take a deeply symbolic film and present it as a straight forward movie. Which is part of the problem and genius of them. By subverting our ideas of an experimental film and making it watchable we as an audience are duped in some sense by letting our guard down and engaging more than we might normally
I find his movies surprisingly watchable. I'd held off on watching Anitchrist (2009) because of what I had heard. The explicit sex and deeply intense violence against the female body in particular . It's not that I didn't want to see it, but I like Charlotte Gainsbourg, clit intact. None the less, it felt like a movie that needed to be seen. I needed to have an opinion on it. (you can see from my past entries I felt similarly about Martyrs)
Willem Dafoe and Charlotte Gainsbourg retreat to their country home after their young son dies while they are having sex. In my mind, the country home functions as their Eden with Gainsbourg desperately trying to reconcile her masculinzed sexuality. She attempts to literally desexualize them both therefore reclaiming their innocence. And if you look back to Genesis (as I do everyday (...ok not really)) when Adam and Eve are cast out of Eden that is the beginning of Satan having some kind of presence and influence on Earth which is how I read this film. You can Google "Anitchrist meaning" and come up with endless different interpretations. And similarly to Martrys what you take away from this movie says more about you than the movie. Which can often cause panic and distress in the viewer. It is a rare thing for a film to put us on the spot and ask us to participate in some way.
Much has been made of the depiction of men and women in this film. I can't take offense to this because these characters are not broadly drawn, they are painted with a fine brush. There are too many specific for me to feel that I have to identify with Gainsbourg's character any more than I feel I should identify with Willem Dafoe.
Now, the movie is shocking and graphic. But the genius comes in when you realize most of the violence is in your head. Von Trier, ever the master of the camera, uses multiple trick shots and fast cut-aways to place the violence in your head. Then, when he makes you feel like it's safe to look, he'll show you what he was hinting at for the last hour.
Now, the all important question: is it a Horror movie? Well, sure. Why not. I'm saying that because I like the movie and would like to put it in the horror cannon. But I can't rightfully put it in the horror canon. It uses many tropes though. when the couple cross a bridge to get to the country house well, shoot, it's straight out of Evil Dead. And for one of the few times in the film I got all warm and fuzzy inside.
To sum up, because I could talk about this movie forever, Antichrist winds up being a reflection of you if you let it. You have to engage and I think us horror fans are in a better position to do it than any other kinds of film lovers because we are used to gore and intense scenes.
Whether you love him or hate him, I have a very clear image of Mr. Von Trier sitting in Denmark doing whatever it is they do in Denmark and laughing his head off at all of us trying to make sense of a movie that was never intended for a collective understanding. .

Airlines and airports today are looking at an uncertain future. This world of uncertainty is the "new normal" explored in PwC's report, The "new normal" for airport investment. It explains why ─ instead of planning for a new phase of constant straight line growth ─ investors will need to adjust their strategies to ink the best deals in the "new normal".
They will need to understand what government stakeholders want to get out of an airport; how to reduce costs and develop new business in an age of uncertainty and resource constraints; and explore opportunities arising in emerging markets' aviation sectors.
The good news is that, despite the worldwide economic downturn, most airports are still making money. By understanding the new landscape, investors can identify the most promising of those opportunities, manage the risks, and shorten the odds of gaining the best returns.
In this report we guide sector players with strategies for operating within this new set of conditions.

The planned cut in oil production and the poor US job market have shaken investors. By Richard Webb.
Shares have rallied hard over the past six months on expectation of a strong US economic bounce but the knee-jerk sell-off last week that greeted surprise news that OPEC intended cutting oil production was a sure sign investors were extremely edgy as they desperately waited for the US economy to start creating jobs, economists said.
The share sell-off had little to do with the size of the OPEC oil production cut, which was relatively small, or the jump in the oil price that immediately followed it, they said.
While a particularly harsh northern winter could still result in rocketing demand for oil in the next few months, the economists believed it unlikely to cause a big surge in the oil price.
That is because OPEC's proposed 900,000 barrel-a-day cut from November 1 represented just 3.5 per cent of its daily oil production and is also substantially less than Iraq will bring to the world market as its oil production recovers into 2004.
Commonwealth Bank commodity strategist David Thurtell said OPEC's share of the world's oil market had been falling as non-OPEC producers such as Russia and Mexico pumped more of the world's oil.
Russia, pumping 8.5 million barrels a day, is now the world's biggest oil producer ahead of OPEC's leader, Saudi Arabia, while Mexico has not moved its production in line with OPEC since signing to the North America Free Trade Agreement in January 2001, he said.
Late last week, Mexico indicated it would not be cutting its oil production, while Russia could meet any sudden surge in demand by pumping more oil, Mr Thurtell said.
"The OPEC move was a surprise to the extent that it could have achieved that amount by tightening up on compliance among its members. The intention seems to be to send a message to Russia rather than anything else."
Oil bounced $US1.50 ($A2.20) a barrel to $US28.45 immediately following the OPEC news, but closed in New York trading yesterday at $US28.16 a barrel, $US1.21 above what it was before OPEC made its announcement on Wednesday.
Despite this, Mr Thurtell is predicting oil prices will fall rather than rise in coming months, heading towards $US20 a barrel by the second half of next year.
"Prices above $US26 to $US27 a barrel are unsustainable in the long term, as it would encourage increased production in non-OPEC countries such as Russia and Mexico and encourage moves to alternate fuel sources, such as solar, coal and nuclear power," he said. "If OPEC is too successful in keeping oil above $US25 a barrel, it will be to its own expense."
Deutsche Bank senior economist Tony Meer said oil remained 11 per cent below its level at the end of August in US dollar terms, and 15 per cent lower on an Australian dollar basis, despite the latest rise. As such, the argument that a higher oil price would act as a brake on the global economic recovery didn't hold.
Mr Meer said the continued inability of the US economic recovery to create jobs was almost singlehandedly causing the underlying investor nervousness.
Every month that passed with news of further US job losses increased the risk the US economic recovery would not be maintained, he said, because US consumers will stop spending if they are concerned about their jobs. Consumer spending accounts for two-thirds of the US economy.
As such, the US September jobs report, due on Friday, will be a huge release for financial markets.
"Share investors have priced in a series of events to perfection," Mr Meer said. "They've priced in a US economic recovery which will then lead to a global economic recovery. But the US economy is still not creating jobs."
Mr Meer said US economic growth would be supported in the short term by US companies building back their inventories. "But the US economy is not going to be able to hold these levels if consumer spending doesn't hold. To do that, there's got to be jobs growth."
Mr Meer said US job losses month after month - the US economy has lost 2.7 million jobs since President George Bush took office in January 2001 - were like a clock counting down on the US economic recovery, because if the US economy did not start creating jobs by Christmas, job losses would be certain to continue. That's because weak retail trading through the key Christmas period would have further impact on employment in the retail sector.
"It's got to the point where the US labour market is carrying all our hopes and fears, not to mention other geopolitical risks that can damage confidence," he said. "That mix has led to a weakness in equity markets over the last two weeks, not the rise in the oil price."
Economists are expecting news this week of further job losses in September, but Mr Meer is hoping to see US jobs growth in the October figures. He said shares would drop sharply if jobs creation was not evident soon. "Equities will pull back significantly and we'll be back to talking about rate cuts not rises."
HSBC chief economist John Edwards said there was also a further geopolitical issue to the OPEC move.
"It had been assumed the US invasion of Iraq had put OPEC on the back foot," Dr Edwards said. "But the move last week asserted its discipline over supply and the powerful role within OPEC of Saudi Arabia - it showed Saudi Arabia was not worried by the US presence on its borders. Some investors were shocked the balance of power in oil had not changed even though the US had control of Iraq's oil."
Dr Edwards said the US economic upswing and the upswings in Japan and Europe were tentative enough to be bruised by any significant rise in the oil price, but he was not expecting a sharp oil price rally. "OPEC has every interest in seeing global growth continue to strengthen," he said.
CommSec senior analyst Craig James said OPEC's move had taken the upward momentum out of share markets and pushed investors to the sidelines. "We could see shares consolidate for a while until we get a spree of good news, which will bring buyers back," he said.

BARCELONA-- Vodafone Group PLC Chief Executive Vittorio Colao said Wednesday that customers in India are using the mobile carrier's data plans less because of a new and well-funded competitor in the populous country.
The remark came after Vodafone on Tuesday took a EUR5 billion ($5.36 billion) write-down on its Indian unit, in its half-year results. Mr. Colao had said the write-down was partly due to an "extraordinary, unprecedented" promotion from Reliance Jio Infocomm Ltd., a new cellular operator backed by India's richest man that is offering free mobile plans for a limited time.
Mr. Colao elaborated on the challenge on Wednesday. "We haven't seen loss of customers, but we've seen many, many multi-SIM users," he said at a Morgan Stanley conference in Barcelona, referring to people using mobile plans from more than one carrier. Because of that, Mr. Colao said, usage of Vodafone's data plans was "not as healthy" as it used to be.
Mr. Colao said it is unclear how the Indian market will shake out after Reliance Jio's promotion ends, but he said he expected consolidation among mobile carriers in the country. There are four major mobile operators in the country and many smaller ones; Vodafone is the No. 2 carrier.
"My guess is...that marginal players will go, and some of the bigger ones will probably have to combine," Mr. Colao said.
Mr. Colao also said Vodafone's budding joint venture with cable and internet provider Liberty Global PLC, to provide a bundle of services in the Netherlands, was going well so far. He said he enjoyed working with Liberty Global Chief Executive Mike Fries but declined to say whether the two planned more partnerships. Analysts speculate the two telecom giants might consider a merger.
"We see the world the same way," Mr. Colao said. "Is this the first trial of something bigger? Not necessarily ...But of course it helps to know each other."

It's for my Sig P239 and what I'm specifically wondering is: can I realistically wear it under a fleece or other such top like that in the winter time?

TOPEKA, Kan. - Freshman midfielder Kylee Rossi (Pennington, N.J.) scored her first collegiate goal, but the top-ranked North Carolina Tar Heels proved to be too much for Tennessee as they won their season opener, 7-1, in the Heartland Classic at Hummer Sports Park. The Lady Vols soccer program drops their first season opener since a 2-1 loss at Duke to open the 2002 campaign.
"This game was a christening by fire," said Lady Vol head coach Angela Kelly. "At times, we had five freshmen on the field that only had 14 days of preseason training under their belts. There were things we did well in instances, but, obviously, we have a lot of things to plan and become better at this year.
"North Carolina is a perennial title contender for a reason. They executed phenomenally tonight, especially in the attacking third. They deserve a lot of credit for their performance this evening."
UNC started on the offensive early, as Yael Averbuch saw her shot in the seventh minute on a free kick bounce off UT goalkeeper Vanessa Phillips-Bosshart's (Vernon, Conn.) fingertips and over the goal line to give the Tar Heels the 1-0 advantage. North Carolina struck pay dirt again in the 13th minute when Elizabeth Guess outran the Lady Vols' defense and slipped a shot past Phillips-Bosshart to put UNC up, 2-0.
The Blue and White opened up the lead to 4-0 with a pair of goals at the 37th and 45th minute. U.S. Olympian Heather O'Reilly found the nets from 12 yards out in the 37th minute after Guess found her with a thru ball. Leea Murphy, a Kansas native, got a breakaway opportunity and finished it with 56 seconds left in the first half to put North Carolina up, 4-0. The Tar Heels dominated the first half, out-shooting the Lady Vols, 11-4.
North Carolina stretched the lead to 6-0 on O'Reilly's second goal of the match in the 52nd minute and Jaime Gilbert's shot in the 70th minute.
Tennessee got on the board in the 80th minute when Rossi got her shot from the wing past UNC goalkeeper Elizabeth Lancaster for her first collegiate goal. The Tar Heels closed out the scoring when Julie Yates scored on a rebound in the box, giving North Carolina the 7-1 win.
For the match, the Tar Heels outshot the Lady Vols, 14-10, and had the 4-2 advantage on corner kicks. The loss dropped UT to 0-6-1 all-time against the No. 1 ranked team in the nation and 0-7-1 against North Carolina.
The Lady Vols open their home schedule next Friday, Sept. 2 against Washington State, with game time set for 7 p.m. EDT at the Tennessee Soccer Complex. It is Regal Entertainment Night, as tickets will be two dollars with a Regal Cinemas ticket stub, and the first 1,000 fans will receive a Lady Vols visor courtesy of the Regal Entertainment Group.

Hey M,
In order to see anything on the internet, you have an IP address that is assigned to your ISP, so technically anything that Stegenos or Anonyimizer sends to your IP, your ISP could technically see.
I believe that both programs encrypt the data though, which is decrypted on your local computer, which would make it clearly impossible for your ISP to understand. You may want to dealve deeper to see if it's true for either programs.
You may also want to give Tor a try, as that's a very quick immerging technology.

I have been using the RC and so far I am not concerned. If your theme is coded properly I think the upgrade should go smoothly.
I think this release is not as big a leap as 3.0 was and I believe most people will be pleased with. I especially love the plugin discovery page but I do wish they would look at the widget manager and export it's setting together with the content.
Thanks for the fix. ^^ I mean't I am now using chrome for mac. This (was) a problem on my windows setup.

This announcement represents a 360 degree turnA 360 degree turn would be full circle. I think you meant a 180 degree turn.
Haha, you are right. 180 degree turn…
I have noticed this on some fonts. It looks as if someone applied a drop shadow on the text. At first I thought its my eyes, now I know why, thanks for pointing it out. Am on chrome for mac.

The sole concept of these marketplaces and it's items is about to be changed in a way that doesn't make sense and will create confusions.
Here's a paragraph from the Envato Support Knowledgebase and here's another article here with the current policy.Whilst we do encourage authors to provide support for their products, they are under no obligation to do so, and this is entirely their choice. This is part of the reason why files on the marketplace are so cheap. Because of this we provide you with live, working examples that you can examine prior to purchase, you are also encouraged to ask questions before you buy the file. Even though not all authors provide Support, Envato requires that all items on our Marketplaces work 100% as described.
So, at least in my opinion, the fairest and decent solution would be only to provide premium support packs for $, but not oblige mandatory support to authors, and in a timeframe. The very purpose of the marketplace is distorted.The fact i'm offering support no matter what, is how i want to market myself, but not because of any rule. Support is tough to be measured.
+100 million. From the horses' mouth ( Envato). This announcement represents a 360 degree turn from what themeforest and codecanyon are all about. This is a DNA change of the market place and it will never be the same again once this takes effect because for it to be fair to authors prices MUST go up considerably and that will also change the kind of customer you attract. Envato Market is about cheap and stock items. That is what is under threat.
+1 from me.

"Children: Please pay attention" - UNICEF and Moscow City Government joint campaign
MOSCOW, Russia - November 10, 2008
With the support of the Moscow City Government Department of Family and Youth Policy, UNICEF has been conducting the second round of the campaign "Children: Please pay attention". The first round was held in Moscow in summer 2008. The goal of the campaign is to remind Muscovites about the existence and needs of young children in a big city. Adults, often fail to notice children, even though it often them who more than others need ongoing support and assistance.
The municipal authorities develop and implement all sorts of social programs, but the urban environment depends, to a large extent, on its residents. Offering your seat to a mother with a child on public transport, holding a door to let a woman with a stroller pass through, assisting a child to cross the roadway, letting mothers go to the front of a queue – all these simple actions do not require any extra effort, but help determine the extent to which children feel comfortable in a large city.
The campaign "Children: Please pay attention" is part of the UNICEF Global Initiative "Child-Friendly Cities" aimed at bringing together efforts of the city authorities, mass media, non-profit organizations, city residents and children to create the best possible environment for every child residing in this huge city.
The campaign is being carried out with the involvement of Amway, a UNICEF partner.

ICIN was established to help the needy Iraqi Christians who as a result of the war have been suffering, displaced, destitute and persecuted.
We feel responsible towards our broken brothers and sisters being oppressed for no reason other than their faith. Some are strangers in their own country, others trapped abroad with no money and no help from the international community, facing a bleak future. Some refuges turning to desperate measures, such as selling their organs or even illegal activity to raise money.
The churches inside Iraq and the neighbouring counties are inundated with the displaced, seeking refuge and charity.
Our aim is to help all Iraqi Christians in and outside Iraq in need of support. We aim to raise awareness of their plight and try to reach them through our churches.
We raise money through personal donations as well as various activities such as sponsorship events, social gatherings, church appeals, home parties, sales, etc.
The money raised will go to the most needy until they are able to work, also towards their medical needs and the education of their children.
We intend to do our best with the help of all who feel with us.

|Rays | Alex Colome activated from DL
Tue, 05 Jul 2016 12:32:03 -0700
Tampa Bay Rays RP Alex Colome (biceps) was activated from the disabled list Tuesday, July 5. In a corresponding move, RP Danny Farquhar was optioned to the minors.
Fantasy Tip: With 19 saves, a 1.76 ERA and 11.2 K/9, Colome has established himself as a solid closer option in all fantasy leagues. It isn't out of the question to wait for him to prove his health in an outing before returning him to your starting lineups, though.

|Rays | Logan Forsythe placed on disabled list
Sat, 14 May 2016 12:36:07 -0700
Tampa Bay Rays 2B Logan Forsythe (shoulder) has been placed on the 15-day disabled list due to a hairline fracture in his left shoulder blade. He is expected to be sidelined for at least three weeks. In a corresponding move, RP Danny Farquhar has been recalled from Class AAA Durham.
Fantasy Tip: Forsythe was injured after being hit in the upper part of his back by a pitch from Seattle Mariners SP Felix Hernandez Monday, May 9. He was batting .308 with four home runs and 12 RBI through 29 games and should be stashed in all fantasy formats. Tim Beckham will continue to see most of the action at the keystone position in his absence but he should be viewed as little more than middle infield depth in AL-only leagues.

|Rays | Brad Boxberger the sole closer
Thu, 28 Jan 2016 16:26:28 -0800
Tampa Bay Rays RP Brad Boxberger is now Tampa's sole closer after they traded RP Jake McGee to the Colorado Rockies Thursday, Jan. 28. RPs Xavier Cedeno and Enny Romero are the only left-handers in the bullpen now, alongside right-handed RPs Alex Colome, Steven Geltz, Danny Farquhar and Andrew Bellatti.
Fantasy Tip: Boxberger struggled in the second half last year, but now he has much more leeway and rope as Tampa's ninth-inning closer. The right-hander had a 3.71 ERA last year and a career-high 41 saves.

|Mariners | SEA completes six-player deal with TB
Thu, 05 Nov 2015 18:11:29 -0800
The Seattle Mariners have acquired SP Nathan Karns, minor league P C.J. Riefenhauser and minor league OF Boog Powell from the Tampa Bay Rays, in exchange for 1B Logan Morrison, SS/OF Brad Miller and RP Danny Farquhar.
Fantasy Tip: Karns went 7-5 with a 3.67 ERA in 27 games (26 starts) in 2015 and will likely crack Seattle's rotation next year even if the team brings back Hisashi Iwakuma, making him a late-round draft option for AL-only and deep mixed leagues. Riefenhauser is a left-handed reliever who went 1-0 with a 5.52 ERA in 17 appearances. Powell hit .295 with a .385 OBP and 18 steals while splitting his time between Class AA Montgomery and Class AAA Durham.

|Rays | TB completes six-player deal with SEA
Thu, 05 Nov 2015 17:59:45 -0800
The Tampa Bay Rays have acquired 1B/OF Logan Morrison, SS/OF Brad Miller and RP Danny Farquhar from the Seattle Mariners, in exchange for SP Nathan Karns, minor league P C.J. Riefenhauser and minor league OF Boog Powell.
Fantasy Tip: Morrison appears likely to serve as the Rays' designated hitter in 2016, with James Loney expected to remain the team's regular first baseman. Miller could compete for the starting shortstop position, with Asdrubal Cabrera eligible to become a free agent. Farquhar has closing experience at the major league level but will probably be used in a setup role in 2016. Morrison and Miller could be of interest to owners in AL-only leagues during the middle and later rounds of fantasy drafts next spring.

|Mariners | Fernando Rodney designated
Sat, 22 Aug 2015 23:29:24 -0700
Seattle Mariners RP Fernando Rodney was designated for assignment Saturday, Aug. 22. In a corresponding move, RP Danny Farquhar was optioned to Triple-A Tacoma.
Fantasy Tip: These pitchers are mentioned because this likely cements RP Carson Smith as the closer in Seattle, much like manager Lloyd McClendon said two days ago. Rodney will likely be outrighted to Tacoma or cut outright. Smith's fantasy value isn't the best as he is struggling, but he will at least have job security.

|Mariners | Seattle sticking with Fernando Rodney
Wed, 03 Jun 2015 14:07:42 -0700
Seattle Mariners RP Fernando Rodney has an 8.50 ERA in the last five weeks, but manager Lloyd McClendon said Wednesday, June 3, that he has no intention of removing Rodney from the closer's role. Rodney blew his second save in his last three chances against the New York Yankees Tuesday, June 2, and he's allowed 17 hits and six walks in his last 12 appearances. His three blown saves this year equal the total he blew from all of 2014. Rodney has 14 saves this year but an ERA of 6.85, and opponents are batting .308 off him. "Rodney has struggled a little bit," McClendon said. "So has everybody else. But the fact is, he's our closer. We need him. We're going to need him to be successful. People talk very lightly about changing closers, and that's fine. But you have to have somebody to do it. You don't just throw anybody in the ninth inning and say, 'Well, let him do it.'" RP Carson Smith has an ERA of 1.17 in 24 outings as the setup man, but he's mainly faced right-handers. McClendon expressed his reluctance to go to Smith because of his inexperience and unwillingness to use him on back-to-back days. McClendon mentioned RP Danny Farquhar as a player with closing experience, but he's currently in the minors.
Fantasy Tip: If you own Rodney, hopefully you already handicapped him with Carson Smith. If not, you may be left in the dust without a closer soon. Bench Rodney until he can turn things around in the meantime. There's no reason why Smith should be available on any waiver wires.

Homework Questions? Ask a Tutor for Answers ASAP
Hi, what is the due date and word count requirement for this?
Due date is today, I have another 5 hours to turn it in
not long at all. the questions just need to be answered
Ok, give me 5 minutes.
thank you
Here you are, please remember to rate my answer.
Main objectives
The main objective of the healthcare system is to provide primary care for acute illness as well as provide preventive services and medicines to provide better outcomes thereby increasing lifespans.
Basic Components
Basic components include doctors, nurses, clinics, outpatient providers, hospitals, insurance providers and the US government in the form of Medicare and Medicaid. Nurses and doctors both work to provide care directly for patients. The clinics are designed to support standard office visits and basic outpatient care while hospitals provide inpatient services and some outpatient services as well. Insurance companies provide the primary form of payment for healthcare services along with the US government in terms of Medicaid for disabled and Medicare for elderly.
Players and Positive and Negative Effects
Players include insurance providers, the US government and all stakeholders in the overall health system including patients and doctors. The positive effect is that technology has provided continually better outcomes and clinics and hospitals continue to innovate in order to garner the increased revenue from more advanced services. Due to the need to contain cost innovation provides for doing more with less and reducing hospital stays. Negative effects are the fact that not everyone is covered and different levels of insurance are available and may not cover all services.
Why people without?
Reasons for people being without insurance could include the inability to pay for coverage on their own or the fact that they don't choose to pay for such coverage. There are in fact only a minority of people that are not covered by private or public plans.
US Government Role
To provide care for the disabled, children, those who can't afford insurance and the elderly.
Importance of understanding intricacies
US Healthcare system is highly complex involving related entities that are not under the same umbrella. In addition, medical coverage and facilities are highly regulated requiring careful adherence to regulations on all fronts.
thank you very much. what do I do now so that you can get paid?

Choose the Right Resource
When choosing resources for your assignment, consider:
- Assignment requirements—what does the professor want you to cite?
- Learn about your topic -- You may want to use a reference book like an encyclopedia (print or online) to start out with if you don't have a clear understanding of your topic yet.
- Time—the more current the topic, the less will be found in scholarly journals or books, which take longer to get published. Recent events will be covered on the Internet, in newspapers and magazines, as well as in the media.
- Depth of coverage and/or the topic—scholarly journals and books cover topics in more depth than magazines and newspapers. Some topics are not covered by the popular press, e.g., research that would not be of interest to the average consumer.
- Quality of the resource - see Step 3: Evaluating Sources
|Type of Information You Need
|Try These Resources
|Does your topic cover current events?
|Newspapers, magazines, Internet
|Do you need general information on a specific topic, written in a non-specialist style?
Newspapers, magazines, Internet
|Do you need in-depth information on a specific topic, written for the college student and above by authorities in the field?
|Scholarly journals
|Do you need more detail and/or has the topic been written about for awhile?
|Do you need an overview, quick facts, statistics on a topic?
|Reference books, Internet
Evaluating Internet Resources
Internet resources can be even more challenging to evaluate because dates and authors are not always readily available. Plus, we all know that anyone can create a website. Using the CRAAP test will help you thoroughly evaluate your source, but the following are some important things to consider when reviewing internet sources.
Who Created the Information?
Websites do not always have authors so you'll need to find information on who or what organization is responsible for creating and updating the webpage. The following are links to look for on webpages that should provide more information on who is behind the website.
- "About Us": usually provides information about the organization or company that is responsible for the webpage.
- "Mission Statement": this will provide information on what the organizations values or goals are.
- "Contributors": provides information on who contributes content to the website, sometimes they'll even list the qualifications of their contributors. This section may also provide information on who funds either the website or the organization. *Beware of websites like Wikipedia where anyone can create an account and edit webpages.
Publication Dates
Finding the date a website was created or last updated can be difficult sometimes. If you can't find a date on a particular webpage, click around and look at the other resources on their website, can you find a date anywhere? Are there links to other sources that are out of date or dead links?
URL Domain Extensions
The following is a list of the most popular domain extensions, which can be used to help determine authority and objectivity. However, domain extensions alone cannot determine if a web source is quality or if it's right for your research.
.gov - Government. The intent of the site is to present official information collected by or about the workings of a government.
.edu - Educational institution. The intent of the site is to educate as well as present information collected by or about the educational institution. *Look out for student work or papers that haven't been published in an authoritative source.
.com - Commercial. The intent of the site is to sell goods or services, as well as provide information about the company.
.org - Organization, usually non-profit. The intent of the site is to present information collected by or about the organization. Sometimes, the intent of the site is to promote a particular point of view. *For more information about the organization check out Idealist.org.
.net - Network, usually personal Web pages. The intent of the site is as varied as the individual(s) responsible for the content. *Usually not scholarly in nature, so if it is a personal page then make sure you research who that person is and what their qualifications are.
A more complete list of top-level domains is also available.
When to be skeptical?
- There is no author or organization associated with the website.
- There are a lot of advertisements and pop-ups. Just because a website looks professional does not mean that it's authoritative.
- Websites that ask you to take some sort of action: donate money, sign a petition, give your email, etc.
- A website that only cites itself, providing links that only lead you to other resources within the site.

*thinks about buying a rear drive car, maybe an old Buick GS (Honda got beat by a 'granny' car)*
As far as the 1.9L DOHC Satty engine goes, if I were to make it a project car, I'd prolly put a cold-air system on it, maybe make one myself. Install a factory header and cams from a '92 or '91 DOHC Satty, and it'd be a pretty quick car, enough to keep the ricers in the school lot in the mirror. There's the one or two v8 'Stangs and Camaros that'd toast me, but there's no replacement for displacement and low-end power.
From what I heard, the most powerful 1.9 DOHC satun was about 250HP, that's with a turbo, but I like running all motor. The stock pistons I heard (or it was the rods, or both) I heard are fairly brittle, and inadequate for 'high' power applications. I don't really feel like ripping the engine apart (no project car rule, it's cold, it's only a four)
Bottom line: do my intake, factory header, cams, (for '93 they killed the slightly better cam and factory header). Buy a project car (old v8 powered beater, maybe a '77 Buick Electra (350v8, turbo 350, needs help) I mentioned in a forum with the same name as this one. Fix up the beater so it's a decent cruiser, and when the Saturn engine needs rebuilt, I'd apply the 3800.
MeanCuda: I read his autobiography(titled Delrean), and he was selling his Delorean company to some drug cartel that turned out to be federal agents.

Ajax 3-1 Man City
- From the section Football
Manchester City's hopes of qualifying for the Champions League knockout stage suffered another crushing blow with a comprehensive defeat at Ajax.
Samir Nasri slotted City ahead against the run of play in Amsterdam, but Siem de Jong equalised for Ajax with a low finish just before half-time and Niklas Moisander headed them in front.
Christian Eriksen made it three with a strike that deflected off Gael Clichy.
Defeat leaves City bottom of Group D with one point from three games.
They host Ajax on 6 November and Real Madrid on 21 November before finishing at Borussia Dortmund on 4 December.
Dortmund lead the way on seven points, one clear of Real and three above Ajax. The top two advance to the last 16.
City fell at the first hurdle last season - their Champions League debut - and look set to suffer the same fate this time round.
They can point to the difficulty of being drawn alongside the champions of Spain, Germany and the Netherlands - but their seeding will not improve until they reach the knockout stage.
City's Abu Dhabi owners are unlikely to look happily on such a return for their lavish investment, and the team's shortcomings have rarely been exposed as cruelly as they were in Amsterdam ArenA.
Ajax started the match in a manner evoking memories of their glorious past, when a side featuring Johan Cruyff won three European Cups in the early 1970s.
A fourth arrived in 1995 with the help of current coach Frank de Boer and his largely home-grown team contrasts sharply with City's expensively assembled squad.
They pass and move with pace and flair, forming combinations all over the pitch and attacking fluidly from wide or through the middle.
Ajax dominated the opening 20 minutes and signalled their intent when Eriksen shot narrowly wide after neat work from Daley Blind and Lasse Schone.
Blind - the 22-year-old son of former Ajax great Danny - continually raced forward from left-back and Ricardo van Rhijn was similarly effective on the opposite side.
But Eriksen was the most prominent threat and he again went close having shimmied past a leaden-footed Gareth Barry.
If one criticism could be levelled at Ajax it was that they were not challenging City goalkeeper Joe Hart, and punishment arrived.
Micah Richards advanced on the right and found James Milner, who fed Nasri to clip a crisp strike past Kenneth Vermeer.
The hosts were suddenly subdued and Vermeer prevented Richards doubling their advantage as City began to exert control.
But with half-time in sight, Roberto Mancini's men switched off and De Jong met Van Rhijn's cross with a crunching first-time effort.
Sergio Aguero was foiled by Vermeer in the opening moments of the second half and that save proved crucial. Shortly after, Moisander got away from Joleon Lescott and glanced home Eriksen's corner.
Mancini swiftly replaced Lescott with the more attack-minded Aleksander Kolarov, yet it seemed to further disrupt City's flow.
Ajax were now full of confidence and Shone was able to rob Barry before Eriksen went past Vincent Kompany and beat Hart via a significant deflection off Clichy.
Hart saved his side's blushes when one-one-one with Tobias Sana, while Mancini introduced Carlos Tevez and Mario Balotelli in attack.
Edin Dzeko, Nasri and Sergio Aguero all had chances to keep City's hopes alive, but Ajax held on comfortably for their first home win against English opposition since 1980.

Emaar Seeks to Change Terms on $980 Million Loan Secured by Mall
Emaar Properties PJSC (EMAAR), Dubai's biggest developer, is seeking to change the terms of a 3.6 billion-dirham ($980 million) loan secured by its Dubai Mall after the company's credit ratings improved.
Emaar "requested our banking partners to review the terms" of the loan, the builder of the world's tallest tower said in an e-mailed statement today without being specific. "This follows our improved credit profile."
The company is seeking to cut the interest rate on the loan to 175 basis points over the London interbank offered rate from 350 bps, MEED reported on July 24. Emaar didn't confirm those figures or say it seeks a lower rate.
Standard & Poor's raised Emaar one level to BB+, its highest non-investment, or junk, grade on April 25, saying recurring revenue and new projects will lift income. Emaar's 2019 Islamic bond yield is poised for the biggest drop in six months, compared with an average rise among its regional peers.
When Emaar obtained the loan in December 2011, using the world's biggest shopping mall by area as collateral, the company said it would use it to repay a $300 million facility taken in 2010 and draw down the rest in 2012. Half of the Islamic and conventional facility will be repaid in five years, while the rest will be amortized over eight years, it said.

I may make a move to Boston Spring/Summer.
I'm originally from NY- and wasn't into guns there.
Of course, here it's great for gun people. I have my CCW here in FL.
I am just wondering if it's realistically possible for regular folks to conceal carry in Boston?
If there is zero criminal history, how long does it typically take for someone to get their concealed license- IF folks can get their concealed carry there?
I did a basic web search, but would rather 'hear' it straight from folks who live there.
Thanks in advance.
