Global Warming Deniers Down Under Get Plimer Promotion
Jeanne Roberts | April 21, 2009
By Jeanne Roberts • Tuesday, April 21, 2009 - 15:30
In the U.S., we have our own little group of global warming deniers.
They include George Will, Rush Limbaugh, Robert Samuelson, Representative Jim Sensenbrenner (R-WI), and the aptly named Marc Morano, all of whom go about hacking schoolbooks, science and the thinking public's sensibilities to extort the facts and figures they need to support their decidedly uninformed viewpoints.
Down under, in Australia, they have their own little coterie, and their dash to the rear is currently being led by Professor Ian Plimer of Adelaide University, whose newest book - Heaven and Earth: Global Warming the Missing Science – is over 500 pages long and, according to reviewer Paul Sheehan, "a product of 40 years research". Plimer, a geologist, says that 96 percent of the greenhouse effect is due to water vapor.

Sermon Illustrations
Today in the Word, May 2, 1993
At the end of the Battle of Britain, British vice-marshal Alexander Adams was driving to a meeting at his headquarters when he came upon a sign: ROAD CLOSED&md;UNEXPLODED BOMB. Adams called over the policeman on duty, hoping he might be able to suggest an alternate route. "Sorry, you can't go through," said the policeman as he approached the car. "The bomb is likely to go off at any minute now." Then he caught sight of Adams's uniform. "I'm very sorry, sir," he said, "I didn't know you were a wing commander. It is quite all right for you to go through."
With "advisors" like that, who needs enemies! Although that policeman&md;who was trained to respect rank&md;momentarily allowed his deference to a vice-marshal to overcome his good sense, Adams had better sense than to follow his advice.

3a : a symbolic object used as a heraldic deviceb : a device, symbol, or figure adopted and used as an identifying mark

Examples of emblem in a Sentence
The flag is the emblem of our nation.
He has come to be regarded as an emblem of conservatism.
Emblem Has Greek Roots
Both "emblem" and its synonym "symbol" trace back to the Greek verb ballein, meaning "to throw." "Emblem" arose from emballein, meaning "to insert," while "symbol" comes from "symballein," Greek for to throw together. "Ballein" is also an ancestor of the words "parable" (from "paraballein," "to compare"), "metabolism" (from "metaballein," "to change"), and "problem" (from "proballein," "to throw forward"). Another (somewhat surprising) "ballein" descendant is "devil," which comes from Greek diabolos, literally meaning "slanderer." "Diabolos" in turn comes from diaballein, meaning "to throw across" or "to slander."
Origin and Etymology of emblem
Middle English, from Latin emblema inlaid work, from Greek emblēmat-, emblēma, from emballein to insert, from en- + ballein to throw — more at devil

new clutch, used pressure plate?
Would I be able to slide with just a new clutch disk, instead of buying a new pressure plate and everything? I put a new clutch in about 5000 miles ago. I used a new centerforce clutch assembly and centerforce flywheel. Already the clutch is starting to slip, I has been smoked a couple of times drag racing. So would I be able to just spend $80 on a new clutch disk, or will I have to spend the $270 for everything again??
i never had any luck running a used pressure plate in a high horse power / high torque application. you say you smoked the clutch a few times ,, so the pressure plate surface has gotten hot and has some warpage to it , and the flywheel has some burned spots on it too .. myself .. i would bow my head and just go in a replace the complete assembly .. check the fly wheel and don't forget the pilot bearing and throw-out bearing . better to do it once than spend your all time pulling the trans / clutch in and out
Dude, ur makin decent power if ur tearing up a centerforce...
Most of the time once a clutch smokes good once it will never be the same. The heat glazes the clutch plate. If you continue to run it, it could warp and/or crack the pressure plate. If you change it out after the first time you smoke it, and the plate is not damaged I dont see any reason to change it. I had good luck with a hays clutch when I ran a standard. I went to it, because I broke the center out of an oem type.
When you "burn" up a clutch disc, you are causing alot of heat. This heat is transfered to the pressure plate. This has a tendancy to warp the pressure plate and also weaken the springs in it. That means that the pressure to keep them applied may not be what it is supposed to be. They should "always" be replaced as a set.
[quote]When you "burn" up a clutch disc, you are causing alot of heat. This heat is transfered to the pressure plate. This has a tendancy to warp the pressure plate and also weaken the springs in it.

True Words!
If you have the know how and special service tools, the plate spring pressure can be checked. The face can be checked for warpage-and can be milled lighly. The flywheel needs to be checked for warpage and hot spots on the face. The flywheel can be faced. It will have maximum material removal specs on it just as a brake rotor has.
All is similiar to performing a quality brake job.
But if you don't have the knowledge and/or facilities, complete component change is recommended as that tranny is awfully heavy to keep pulling out.
If the centerforce is slipping, you might consider going to a finger style with a higher clamping force.
I can't argue with what you say there. Except for the flywheel machining, the other costs would likely be more than the cost of the pressure plate.
Thanx for all the info, I dropped the tranny out of the car yesterday in record timing, 20 minutes!! I un bolted the pressure plate and the flywheel looks pretty good, theres no apparent burn spots and its smooth. The friction disk was worn pretty good. I looked into the finger style clutch, but im running a street car, and the tech department at Jegs said that its very touchy for the street. It likes to grab and it chatters alot, and one bad slip of the clutch will kill it, so I just ordered a new centerforce clutch and pressure plate. Im not going to take any chances.
Yea, the car has some awsome power, I put a set of slicks on the rear, and when they grabbed, the front end would leave the ground, afterward I would smell that nasty burnt brakes smell from my clutch being smoked. Its a low 11's street car, but im not done suping it up. Next is a Paxton supercharger!! Can't Wait!
[quote]I looked into the finger style clutch, but im running a street car, and the tech department at Jegs said that its very touchy for the street.

Not to mention it is a little tough on the left leg also...
If the flyweel face looks good, might I suggest to deglaze it (if there is a heat glaze present) and before assembly (crocus cloth-use a hand block sander), wipe both of the faces down good (flywheel and plate) with brake cleaner or other suitable solvent to remove any traces of gease/contamination.
I would rather renew a clutch assembly periodically than to pick up drivetrain pieces off the starting line (very expensive and embarrassing too).
Good Luck with it!
[ October 12, 2002: Message edited by: KULTULZ ]

Hey thanx alot for all the info. I installed everything and its working great so far. The real test will come in after I brake it in. The directions say I have to drive around in stop and go type traffic for 450 to 500 miles to brake it in. Hopefully this one holds up.
Is this ~11s on the motor? boost? Nitrous?
Its a 69 camaro, about 2800lbs. Small block 400ci w/ 10:1 compression, camel hump 2.02 1.60 heads ported, 800cfm carb, performer RPM intake, 274 Comp cam, MSD ignition, munci 4 speed, 3.73 gears. Naturally Aspirated, for the time being. Im putting 6 inch rods and new dart 2.08 aluminum heads on it this winter before I go with the supercharger. I can't wait. Right now, I run 11.3's in the quarter when I run cam 2 and shift really fast. Its slowly but surely getting there.

My kids know I carry, it's normal to them... and they also know why. It's no secret there are bad people out there, I'd rather have my kids be prepared and knowledgeable than live in a fantasy world thinking everyone is their friend.
This is a discussion on Got made....... by a 7 year old within the Concealed Carry Issues & Discussions forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; A couple of weeks ago, right around the holidays, i was visiting a friend who has two daughters (both of which are my "God" daughters). ...
A couple of weeks ago, right around the holidays, i was visiting a friend who has two daughters (both of which are my "God" daughters). They are a rowdy pair and always insist that i wrestle, tickle, rough-house, and generally play around. As i was playing chase in the backyard my shirt drifted up and the 7 year old says, "why do you have a gun in your pants?" I quickly responded "to protect you from bad people". Their father, my best friend of nearly 20 years, knows i carry, has no problem with it, and intends to CCW one of these days.
I hate to plant the notion that there are bad people out there that have the capacity to do them harm in their little heads. im not a fan of spoiling innocence. The world can be a nasty place but i dont want the children fearing the boogie man... On the other hand i dont want to lie or skirt the issue because 1) kids know BS when they see it 2) honesty is an important trait to build and 3) who knows, one day they may be interested in carrying.
Just wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience, how you handled it, and any lessons you might have learned.
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
My kids know I carry, it's normal to them... and they also know why. It's no secret there are bad people out there, I'd rather have my kids be prepared and knowledgeable than live in a fantasy world thinking everyone is their friend.
My son, 8 now, knows I carry and asked me several years ago why I carried, Much the same as you, I told him it was to protect him from anyone that might do him harm. I also showed him my CCW permit and explained that "Daddy" went through all the proper classes and training and got a license to carry that gun, so I was not doing anything illegal. But that the fact that I carry a gun was a secret, and we don't want the "bad guys" to know, so it wasn't something to be discussed with his friends or anyone else. He seemed to accept that, the other day he saw my gun and said "I have never told anyone you carry a gun" I thanked him and we kept on playing.
"fundamental principle of American law that a government and its agents are under no general duty to provide public services, such as police protection, to any individual citizen." [Warren v. District of Columbia,(D.C. Ct. of Ap., 1981)]
If I have to explain it, you wouldn't understand
All 5 of my kids know ages 3 through 22, as they get older they ask questions, more and different from why do you carry? to so you can kill people? and I answer honestly. Best practice IMO.
Mors est libertas
I think you did fine. My son who is 4 now has known for about a year. Just recently I changed my explanation from "because daddy might need it sometime" (which he left at that, so I did too), to "so daddy can protect mommy, you and little sister if he needs to". The conversations are a little more in-depth than that (I've instructed him that we don't talk about it in public - and man did that bring on the never ending series of "why daddy?"!!) etc. But little man understands that daddy's job is to protect and provide for mommy, him, and little sister (soon to be both little sisters!), and I am unapologetic about that. I have always intended to teach any sons I have the responsibility to provide and protect those whom you call family.
To the OP...
I've said the same thing to my grandkids, and protecting them from bad people seems to have answered their questions for the time being.

My older chldren have know since I can remember, that I carry a gun, and they were raised up around them. It is pretty much a second nature thing for them. We have had the we do not tell talk, and as far as I know they have carried out my wishes on not telling. Honesty is the best answer, and that is what I always give. Not sure if hte kids have made me weaing my gun, as it is something they are used to, and i carry owb a lot when outside at home. The oldest has moved away, and now has a ccw permit and carries a gun of her own, and we enjoy some quality time at the range. IT is a good feeling, knowing, she is a responsible adult, and willing to protect herself in the word we live in today.
Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American GI. One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.
I asked my stock broker the other day, what I should be investing in ....his reply, canned goods n ammo !!!
I think that is a great response. Then when the kid gets a little older, offer to take dad and kid to the range and teach him to shoot.
Preparing for the Zombie Apocalypse or Rapture....whichever comes first.
Great response IMO. My oldest is 2.5 right now. Hasn't come up yet, but he has never "made" me. I know that (among many other talks) will come in the future and your explanation fits for a youngster. As they grow older they will have deeper questions and we will have deeper answers.

Unfortunately, 7 yr olds know there are bg's out there. I'm sure it's just like when the little ones fall - if you don't make a big deal about it, neither will they (unless they're really hurt); if you make a big deal about a skinned knee, they will too.
My kids have just learned recently that I now have my CHL and they asked me why I have the need to carry a gun. My reply to them was now a days are not like when I grew up. We could go out and play all day and never have to worry much about anything. I told them the world has really changed and there ar a lot of BG's out there (which they all ready know) and my goal is to try to keep us all safe. Also to the original OP, I think you handled it just fine with the kids.
my 5 yrs old nephew loves to ruff house. its all fun until he runs head first into my hip lol. he started becoming curious, but since im the uncle and not the parent I decided to leave that talk up to them atleast untill he gets alittle older. since then I always pocket carry a 380 in a desantis holster that way I can ruff house without the worry of him grabbing it or priting/falling out,..etc.

A few years ago, my English aunt was at a work holiday party, when she spotted her office crush. Emboldened by a few glasses of egg nog, she strolled right up to him and said...
"Fancy a snog?"
Her crush smiled and took her up on her offer...and today they're happily married!
How awesome is that? (And don't you love her British slang?!) So, I'm curious: Have you ever made the first move and kissed a guy? How did it go? Or are you shy when it comes to planting one on a guy you like? Take our little poll...__

Here are your 2 Crazy Florida Stories. Boxed Wine/No Pants, and the Angry Dwarf!
A 40-year-old DWARF in Kansas met a 14-year-old girl in Florida online on Tuesday, and she said she wanted to meet. So he drove about 1,300 miles to meet her. And he was in such a hurry he didn't make a single unnecessary stop, including bathroom breaks ... he just relieved himself in the car. But when he got to Florida, it turned out to be a police sting, and he was arrested.
Also, a woman wearing a shirt but no pants stole two boxes of wine from a Publix in Ocala, according to police.

Spark Inspector 1.5.1 | MacOSX | 19.6 MB
Debugging tool for iOS Xcode projects that enables you to view the app's interface in 3D mode, and can monitor all sent notifications. Spark Inspector is an efficient OS X application designed to help you debug your iOS projects and tweak their interface in real time, until you are satisfied with the result. The utility allows you to view the structure of the iOS app, provides control over its interface, and can monitor each NSNotification, and reveal both the recipients and the used methods.
Monitor & Experiment in Real-time
With a three-dimensional view of your app's interface and the ability to change view properties at runtime, Spark can help you craft the best apps on earth. Wiring your app together with notifications? Spark's notification monitor shows you each NSNotification as it's sent, complete with a stack trace, a list of recipients and invoked methods, and more. Understand app structure at a glance and debug smarter.
Live Mirroring
Connect your app to the Spark Inspector, and you'll see your app's interface front and center. As you interact with your app, the inspector updates in real-time! We monitor every change to your app's view hierarchy so you can always see what's going on.
Experiment at Runtime
The view of your app you see in Spark isn't just beautiful, it's completely editable. You can modify almost every property of your views, from their class-level attributes to their CALayer transforms. When you make a modification, Spark invokes a method call within your app to directly modify that property.
Use a Device or Simulator
The Spark Inspector connects to your app over Bonjour, the same networking technology that enables Airdrop. You can connect to the simulator, or to any iOS device on your local network running iOS 5+. The target dropdown in the upper left lets you choose an app on the network to inspect.
See Notifications in Real-time
The Spark Inspector features a groundbreaking Notifications panel that allows you to monitor NSNotificationCenter in real-time. Watch as notifications are sent and observers are registered in the dispatch table. For each notification, you can see the stack trace where it was triggered, the objects that received it, the methods that were invoked, and the attached user info. We've spent weeks developing the notification inspector so you can spend seconds debugging notifications.
Filter Away
The notification panel is designed to be filtered. Click the arrow beside any notification or object to see similar entries. Find the observers of a particular notification, notifications sent with a particular object parameter, and more.
Understand App Architecture
Many apps are built with notifications at their core. Updates to the model trigger notifications, which in turn trigger changes to app views. Use the notifications panel to watch notification activity and build an understanding an app's architecture quickly.
Resend Past Notifications
Ever been debugging code and wished you could trigger that notification one more time? Now you can. Select a sent notification and click 'Post Again.' This doesn't always work - if the notification object or user info has been deallocated, you're out of luck. But we wanted it, so we built it. Enjoy!
The Spark Inspector works just like Instruments.
The Spark Inspector integrates directly into Xcode, so you don't need to add frameworks or modify your project to inspect your app in the iOS Simulator.
If you're in the middle of a debug session and something unexpected happens, you can attach the Spark Inspector to see what's going on. No restarting your app, no changing your project. All from inside Xcode.
What's New Version 1.5.1:
A small update that includes support for Xcode 7.2
Requirements: Intel, 64-bit processor OS X 10.8 or later

Ghostwriters on ghostwriting
Ghostwriters spill the beans on what it takes to write a celebrity's autobiography. Hunter Davies continues to be an enduring hero of mine – how on earth can he make sense of stars like Paul Gascoigne and Wayne Rooney? It would also appear someone's mum can play an important role in the ghostwriter's work.
Dwight Yorke messed me around, didn't appear interested. He's intelligent, fluent, but he turned out to be very private. Perhaps it was my fault. Gazza – the most successful of the ones I've done in the sense that it sold shitloads and won prizes – was a struggle, as he was in and out of rehab, hospitals, hotels whose names and whereabouts he never knew. Often, after an hour, he'd say, "Youredoinmafuckinheedin!" and I'd have to wait till he calmed down. Wayne was no bother. I saw him eight times at his lovely house, and the lovely Coleen, and each time I got three hours with his mobile off and a look of utter concentration. It was hard in some ways, but only because of his age, not having had the, er, richness of experience of Gazza.
I always ask if they have kept memorabilia, diaries, letters, school reports. When I was doing the Beatles' biog, only Ringo's mum could find his school report. Gazza's mum thought she'd kept a swimming certificate he'd won aged eight. Brilliant, I said, pushing her up into the loft – but she never found it. Wayne's mum was a joy: she'd kept every school report from nursery, and every letter and report sent

Guwahati, Jan. 4: Emboldened by the countrywide public outcry against rape and molestation in the wake of the Delhi gang rape, victims of sexual assault in Assam are coming out and filing cases with the police.
Public support for the victims is, activists and psychologists believe, helping them and their guardians go public with how they had been brutalised by their assailants.
The developments, though, come with a corollary ' while genuine cases of assault are beginning to come to light, there is, in a grey area, chances of the provisions of the law pertaining to rape being misused, as has been the case sometimes with the dowry and domestic violence acts.
During the past three days alone, three cases of rape have come to light in the state. While a postman had allegedly attempted to rape a woman at Pub-Sarania in Guwahati last Wednesday, a senior BTAD Congress leader has been accused by a married woman of attempted rape in Chirang district on Thursday. The alleged gang rape of a 13-year-old girl by five men at the Hukanpukhuri tea estate in Tinsukia district, too, came to light today.
Several activists here believe that the public support for the Delhi rape victim has encouraged victims here to file complaints against the guilty.
"Rapes and other atrocities against women have always been committed; the only difference now is that the public intolerance for rape has resulted in an unprecedented glare on rape and molestations. Earlier, many victims did not register cases against the guilty, fearing public ostracism," women's rights activist Sumitra Hazarika said. "Now with the entire country demanding capital punishment for rapists, the police, too, are registering cases promptly."
"Usually rape victims are very hesitant to reveal their identity fearing social stigma. But the protest against the Delhi case has created an atmosphere where the victims can now fearlessly demand justice. Public support will also help victims overcome their trauma," psychiatrist Jayanta Das said.
Judicial experience has, however, prompted the legal fraternity to warn of misuse of the legal provisions pertaining to rape in the given scenario. "There definitely exists the danger of the law governing rape being misused. When a case is registered, the police have to take the victim for a medical examination within 72 hours of the alleged incident," Gauhati High Court lawyer Anand Bhuyan said.

Weston Playhouse Stages "Ella: The Musical"
07/16/12 5:30PM By Nina Keck
| Download MP3
Ella Fitzgerald spent nearly 60 years in the spotlight. She won 13 Grammy awards, the National Medal of the Arts, the Presidential Freedom Award and millions of fans around the world. But who was Ella? Really? A musical at the Weston Playhouse peels back the curtain to tell the poignant, real-life story of this notoriously private jazz legend.
Joilet Harris has done her share of performing over the years - on stage, on TV, in movies. But playing the First Lady of Song, the Queen of Jazz, playing Ella? Those are big shoes to fill.
"Yeah," says Harris, "it was a challenge." "Sit with DVDs, CDs videos sitting at a table with honest to goodness, a legal pad writing down scadidily-dop-de- woop-de-wap. ... So, I'm trying to give it that as best I can. "Fitzgerald's nearly pitch perfect voice could sing just about anything. But it was her ability to scat - to riff on a melody like a trumpet or saxophone that really set her apart among jazz singers.
Joilet Harris says it's not an easy skill to master.
"In scatting you're taught to listen to what the horns play," she said. "That's how you get the movements of the scat phrasing," says Harris. "A lot of it is trying to get your tongue loosened up - to get the repetitiveness of the phrases you're doing. I'll do dldldldldldldld. - so my tongue moves quickly."Director Tim Fort says like a lot of Ella Fitzgerald fans, he didn't know much about the singer beyond her music. But he says her life story is as powerful as her voice. To tell that story, Fort says the playwrights set the musical in 1966. Ella's half sister - the person closest to her at the time - has just died and the 49-year-old singer is distraught. "But," says Fort, "She's expected to perform at a televised concert and her manager is demanding that the shy star interact more with the audience."
"Ella says, 'Well, I don't do patter and I don't want to talk about myself.' " But," Fort says, "then he leaves, everybody leaves the stage and she starts thinking about what she might say and then we start to learn about her past and little scenes play out as we see her grow up and become the Ella that we know.
The musicians become characters and in scenes played out you learn that her father was out of the picture early; that her step father sexually abused her; and that her mother died when Ella was just 15. Undaunted, she entered a talent show that same year at Harlem's famed Apollo Theater. She planned to dance. But she was intimidated by dancers who went on before her. So Ella sang. The crowd was wowed and her career was launched. Any hurt, any pain was tucked away.Joilet Harris admits she's endured similar heartbreak and says like Ella she's an introverted extrovert. "I understand her," says Harris. "And what we do is to live out who we want to be on stage. We live our lives through our music and the audience. That instant gratification," says Harris, "that instant applause that instant approval that you didn't necessarily get from the rocking of your mother in her arms or the nurturing of your dad - you get it from your audience."
Audiences that Harris hopes can now get a more nuanced and realistic picture of Ella Fitzgerald the woman.
Ella, the musical has been on tour since 2005. The Weston is the first theater in the country to put on a regional performance.

Thank you guys,
I was able to have TTS enabled in my IGo Primo.
I think CS10 means 2 TTS enabled *.zip files in voice folder.
which files to use for Nextgen on WinCE 6.0 ? pls also share the Sys.txt file here pls...
The 2 zip files are:
Both are 29kb.[Only registered and activated users can see links. ][Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
Are you testing only those two files? That is, make sure only those two files are in the content/voice directory. Also make sure you're using only Nuance library (no Loquendo).
Last edited by osiris4isis; 5th February 2016 at 12:39 AM.
Ah ok, I have other files in there as well.
Probably whatever came with the Ferrari Next Gen pack by default.
So your saying that the ONLY two files in VOICE should be the zip files I provided correct?
May help to enable logging for the iGo app (temporarily) - would probably tell you what the issue is. Here is a post that describes how to enable logging:
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
I think this would help a lot of folks figure out what is causing certain issues.
Sent from my HP SlateBook 10 x2 PC using Tapatalk
If problem still exists, try recopying the library over again; if the files were corrupted when it was copied, it gives similar symptom.
Update: You originally said you were using 220.127.116.115512 (Primo Truck 2014), but now you're saying NextGen. The voice pack in this thread is very old and is for old Primo, not NextGen. So it's not guarantee to work with it; you might have to post in the NextGen thread that you're using from, so others might know and help you.
Last edited by osiris4isis; 5th February 2016 at 11:31 AM.
Excellent, will give that a go, and if still an issue with just 1 file in there, i'll try the logging mode as posted above, and then report back.
Thanks for your help everyone!

RICHMOND, Va. - The decision by Michael Vick's remaining two co-defendants to plead guilty gives prosecutors additional leverage against the Atlanta Falcons star, who has maintained his innocence in a federal dogfighting conspiracy case.
"He's hanging out there by himself, and that's a very uncomfortable place to be," said Anne Coughlin, a professor at the University of Virginia School of Law and expert on criminal procedure.
A spokesman for Vick's lawyers would not comment Tuesday on media reports quoting unnamed sources as saying prosecutors and the defense were negotiating a possible plea agreement, and that Vick faced a Friday deadline to either accept a deal or face additional charges.
But the spokesman, Collins R. Spencer III, did not rule out the possibility of an announcement by the Vick team sometime this week - probably in Richmond, where the case is pending in U.S. District Court.
Spencer, contacted as he left the office of Vick attorney Daniel L. Meachum in Atlanta, would not elaborate on the nature of the possible announcement.
Purnell Peace, 35, of Virginia Beach, is set to appear in federal court in Richmond on Thursday and Quanis Phillips, 28, of Atlanta, on Friday.
Last month, co-defendant Tony Taylor pleaded guilty to his role in a dogfighting conspiracy he says was financed almost entirely by Vick. As part of a plea agreement, Taylor is required to cooperate with the prosecution in the case against Vick.
Coughlin said that when Taylor agreed to testify against Vick, the prosecution's hand became so much stronger that an average person in Vick's shoes likely would plead guilty. But with Vick's NFL career on the line and a high-powered defense team on his side, Coughlin said she initially could see him fighting to the end.
But now, she said, the odds against him seem insurmountable.
"Once you have the testimony of the other two, it's hard to imagine how Michael Vick can stand alone and emerge successfully," she said. "It's one of the most frightening positions you can be in."
Details of the latest plea agreements are not yet known, but Coughlin said such deals always include a pledge to cooperate in hopes of getting a lighter sentence.
The chief question now, Coughlin said, is what kind of deal the prosecution is willing to give Vick. If prosecutors don't offer enough concessions, Vick might opt to take his chances with a jury, she said.
However, the down side of a trial for Vick would be listening to his former cohorts publicly air the grisly details of their activities, Coughlin said.
"It's going to be vile, absolutely vile," she said.
Vick, 27, and the other three pleaded not guilty last month to running an interstate dogfighting enterprise known as "Bad Newz Kennels" on Vick's property in rural Surry County.
For now, Vick's trial remains scheduled for Nov. 26. The charges include conspiracy to travel in interstate commerce in aid of unlawful activities and conspiring to sponsor a dog in an animal fighting venture.
If convicted, he faces up to five years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000.
Taylor is facing the same maximum punishment, although he probably will get substantially less because of sentencing guidelines and his cooperation with prosecutors.
A statement of facts signed by Taylor as part of his plea agreement said Vick attended several dogfights in Virginia and other states with his partners. Prosecutors claim the fights offered purses as high as $26,000.
The July 17 indictment said dogs that lost fights or fared poorly in test fights were sometimes executed by hanging, electrocution or other brutal means. The gory details have fueled public protests against Vick and have cost him some of his lucrative endorsement deals.
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has barred Vick from the Falcons' training camp while the league investigates.

Savard Named 2007 Hockey Humanitarian
Sunday, January 25, 2009
From Yale & hockeyhumanitarian.org
The Hockey Humanitarian Foundation announced today that Yale senior forward Kristin Savard of Framingham, Mass., is the recipient of the 2007 Hockey Humanitarian Award, presented by the Mellon Financial Corporation. Savard is the 12th recipient of the award, which was created to recognize college hockey players – male or female – who give back to their communities in the true humanitarian spirit. She will be recognized tonight in a ceremony at Scottrade Center, site of the NCAA men's ice hockey Frozen Four, in conjunction with the Hobey Baker Award presentation and the Pontiac Frozen Four Skills Challenge.
Savard founded "Teaming Up", Yale's effort to raise awareness for improving maternal health in the developing world – a project she hopes to expand to other schools and teams. Of all the health statistics monitored by the World Health Organization, maternal mortality represents the largest discrepancy between developed and developing nations. Approximately 600,000 women die each year from pregnancy-related complications, and 99% of these deaths occur in developing countries. Most of these deaths are preventable.
"After hearing such startling statistics, you can't help but wonder what more can be done – how can you make a difference?" Savard said. "As I considered how to go about raising awareness, I realized that my strongest resource at Yale was our hockey team."
Led by Savard, Yale raised money to enable the women of the Keiskamma community in South Africa to partake in the UbuMama program. UbuMama ("motherhood") is an arts-based initiative in which women produce a maternity gown depicting the challenges of motherhood. The garments are used as instruments to gain support for the cause.
Dozens of communities have expressed interest in the UbuMama program but lack the funding to implement it – thus "Teaming Up". The Yale women's ice hockey team encouraged fans to pledge a donation for each goal the team scored (a school-record 96) as part of its "Goals for Goals" campaign to aid the women of Keiskamma.
Savard also helped organize efforts to raise funds by other teams at Yale, including the women's swimming & diving team and the women's lacrosse team. She plans to apply for grants and continue looking for ways to fund the project to continue its growth.
"Kristin Savard is an extraordinary student-athlete," said Yale head coach Hilary Witt. "I am confident that, long after she graduates this spring, she will continue to do her part to make the world a better place."
Savard first became involved with the issue of maternal health this past summer when she worked for Imagine Chicago, a non-profit organization that works with community groups to implement innovative civic projects. Working directly with Imagine Chicago's president, Bliss Browne, she attended numerous conferences, documented Imagine Chicago projects from around the world (Imagine Nepal, Imagine Cape Town, etc.) and edited a book about Imagine Chicago's approach to community involvement.
In addition to her work on Teaming Up, Savard is in her second year serving on Yale's Thomas W. Ford '42 Student-Athlete Community Outreach Committee, an organization designed to bring Yale student-athletes and the New Haven community together. Among the committee's projects are a holiday toy drive and two annual Yale Athletics Youth Days in which local children use Yale's facilities with coaching from student-athletes.
Savard and her teammates also participated in "Skate with the Players" events, giving local youths the chance to skate with Yale players. The team has also taken part in the Relay for Life, raising money for the American Cancer Society.
Savard spent two years as a tutor for first-graders at a New Haven elementary school. She also worked at Dynamic Skating hockey camps each summer throughout high school and until last year, when she was away working for Imagine Chicago.
Savard was named as one of five Hockey Humanitarian finalists in January, joining Ohio State's Jody Heywood, Wisconsin's Andrew Joudrey, RPI's Kirk MacDonald and Clarkson's Lindsay Williams. Savard was the third Bulldog to earn finalist status in the last eight years, following Deanna McDevitt in 2003 and Julianna Schantz-Dunn in 2000. Yale women's hockey has had more finalists than any other program in the country – men's or women's – in that span.
"What impresses me the most about Kristin is that she does all of these things in the most humble way," said Witt. "She does not brag about her community involvement or expect others to pat her on the back. She puts her time and effort into these projects because she feels it is the right thing to do and that she can make a difference."
A political science major, Savard is a three-time ECAC All-Academic selection. She has been a part of a renaissance on the ice for the Bulldogs, who won more games in her four seasons (54) than any other four-year period in school history. During her time here Yale set the school record for wins in a season (16, 2004-05) and made its first trip to the ECAC semifinals (2004-05).
Savard finished her career fourth all-time at Yale in assists (54), tied for fifth in points (93) and eighth in goals (39). She was an ECAC All-Star selection in 2005, competing against Team USA in an exhibition match at Ingalls Rink. She was named to the ECAC All-Rookie Team as a freshman and won Yale's Coaches' Award, given to the player who has shown the most grit and determination, as a sophomore. She earned a spot in the USA Hockey Women's Festival in the summer of 2004, playing with and against several U.S. Olympians in a round-robin tournament.
"For everything that hockey has given me, I can not give back enough," Savard said. "For the opportunity to be at Yale, for the friends I have made and the lessons I have learned, I can not give back enough. But I will do what I can."

Memorial grows for murdered Cañon City family
Two memorials now established for mother, three children
CAÑON CITY, Colo. - A steady stream of people is walking and driving past the home of a murdered family in Cañon City and leaving items to show support.
"The memorial service Tuesday night brought more people out to see and leave things here," a neighbor said.
A growing collection of stuffed toys, flowers and other items lies under a tree in the Phay Avenue front yard of the Folsom family. Neighbors said a police officer guarding the property helps keep the assortment of items together.
A second, smaller memorial has started at the base of a stop sign down the street at the corner of Yale Place. A neighbor said that memorial is intended for people who didn't know the family personally but want to show support.
Meanwhile, the Folsom home remains surrounded with crime scene tape as the murder investigation continues. Mandy Folsom and her children, Melissa and Mason, were found dead in the home last Sunday. A teen female was assaulted at the home but survived.
Jaacob Vanwinkle, 31, is in custody facing charges of first-degree murder, kidnapping and sexual assault.
Relatives of the Folsoms visited the memorials Wednesday and thanked the people who showed they care by leaving mementos for the victims.

First measurements of the differential positronium-formation cross-sections
Positrons are the antimatter version of electrons and so their fate in a matter world is ultimately to annihilate. However, prior to this, a positron may combine with an electron to form a matter-antimatter hybrid called positronium. This is akin to a hydrogen atom with the proton replaced by a positron. Fundamental to our understanding of the physical universe, positron and positronium are these days also acknowledged as being fantastically useful in practical applications such as probing material properties and medical diagnostics. However, there is still much that we do not know for sure about the details of the interactions of these particles with ordinary matter. For example if, in a collision with an atom or molecule, a positron captures an electron, in which directions is the positronium likely to travel and with what probability? More...

On quantum scales, there are many second laws of thermodynamics
New research from UCL has uncovered additional second laws of thermodynamics which complement the ordinary second law of thermodynamics, one of the most fundamental laws of nature. These new second laws are generally not noticeable except on very small scales, at which point, they become increasingly important. More...

Professor Peter Barker
I have a background in atomic and molecular laser spectroscopy, non-linear optics, and laser trapping and cooling. Within the last 10 years my research has concentrated on the study of molecular cooling and trapping and on quantum cavity optomechanics. I have expertise in developing applications from more basic optical physics research. I was awarded a PhD in Physics from the University of Queensland, Australia in 1996. From 1997 to 2001 I was a Postdoctoral Research Associate, and then a Research Scientist and Lecturer in the Applied Physics Group in the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department at Princeton University. At Princeton, I began to study the manipulation of atoms and molecules in pulsed optical fields by studying coherent Rayleigh scattering from molecules trapped in optical lattices. During this time I was part of a multidisciplinary team of physicists and engineers from Princeton University, Sandia National Laboratories and Lawrence Livermore developing a new type of wind tunnel for accelerating gases to hypersonic speeds using lasers and electron beams. In 2001 I took up the position of Lecturer in the Physics Department at Heriot-Watt University and became a Senior Lecturer in 2004. In October 2006 I joined the AMOP group at UCL as a Reader and was promoted to Professor in October 2007. Currently I have projects in cavity optomechanics using nanoparticles levitated in vacuum and larger microscale clamped systems based on whispering gallery mode resonators for studying fundamental quantum mechanics and for development of sensors.

NEW - Fully funded PhD Studentship in Levitated quantum cavity optomechanics is now available
Processes in the microscopic world are extremely well described by quantum theory, but yet little is known about the transition to the classical world at macroscopic scales. For example, can a macroscopic object such as a virus be put into a quantum superposition, and if not, what are the processes at these length and mass scales that prevent this? These types of questions are not only important for our fundamental understanding of the world but they will also impact on the development of future engineered macroscopic quantum systems. Until very recently these questions remained a primarily theoretical pursuit because the experimental methods required to prepare and maintain the delicate macroscopic quantum states in the presence of environmental noise did not exist. New experimental techniques now offer the prospect for laboratory tests of macroscopic quantum mechanics. This field, collectively known as quantum cavity optomechanics, uses the controlled interaction of light with the mechanical motion of nanoscale and microscale oscillators, to coherently control their motion. To date quantum ground state cooling has been demonstrated in only a handful of these solid-state devices but a macroscopic superposition, and even non-classical motion, has yet to be observed.
We have developed a new optomechanical oscillator system that is levitated in vacuum. It uses a novel configuration of electric and optical fields to achieve extremely good isolation from the environment. Cooling from room temperatures down to milliKelvin temperatures has been achieved for the first time, by employing a technique called cavity cooling, with quantum ground state cooling now within reach. Our aim in this research programme is to explore macroscopic quantum mechanics by preparing and measuring its nonclassical motion. For the first time, we will undertake laboratory tests of theoretical models for macroscopic wavefunction collapse. This will be possible even when the system is not in the ground state. The very low noise and high mechanical Q of this oscillator system also offers significant promise for sensing applications.

Fishing Tournament Helps Raise Money For Breast Cancer Walk
The first annual Coach Fields Classic fishing tournament was held on Saturday July 30th in Huntingdon County. Travis Wisor, a Huntingdon County native and the owner of Central PA Bass Fishing Adventures created this first time outing. The outing was hosted at The Inn at Edgewater Acres.
14 anglers took part in the smallmouth and largemouth catch, measure, and release fishing tournament by paying a $30 entry fee. Money raised at the event is being donated to the Central Pennsylvania Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk that is hosted by the American Cancer Society. This year's walk will take place on Saturday, October 1st at the Penn State Altoona Campus. Between entry fees and donations, this year's fishing tournament will be casting out close to $500.00 to the American Cancer Society.
"I named the tournament after Coach Fields because during his time at Juniata Valley, as a basketball coach and high school teacher, he had such a positive influence on me and so many other members of the Juniata Valley community," said Wisor. "Coach Fields loves to fish. He is also widely known in the area as someone who is always looking for a way to help somebody. We thought that having a fishing tournament that raises money to help save lives and end breast cancer deserves to have Coach Fields' name all over it," said Wisor.
Fishermen checked in on Friday night and were each given a ruler. Fishing began on Saturday morning. While fishing contestants were to lay the fish that they caught down on the ruler, take a picture of the fish that clearly shows the length, and then release the fish back into the water. No fish were killed as a result of this tournament. They were able to fish until 9pm. At that time they returned to the Inn at Edgewater Acres to show photos of their fish. The anglers then enjoyed a picnic style meal donated by Mark and Deb Saussure of Edgewater Acres.
Todd Davis of Alexandria took the top prize for the Smallmouth Bass category reeling in a mammoth Smallmouth that measured 18 and inches long.
Chris Voltz from Pittsburgh took the top Largemouth Bass category prize with one that measured 12 inches.
"A number of businesses jumped on board with us to make this a great event. I can't thank them enough for their generosity," said Wisor at the tournament awards dinner. Each contestant was given a special bag of fishing supplies donated by Doctor D's Tackle Shack owner Don Leright of Huntingdon. The top winners also received custom made flashlight holsters from AP Tactical Holsters and gift cards from Dick's Sporting Goods and Hoss's.
"We hope to make this an annual event and we want to make it bigger and better every year," said Wisor.

Rosberg, Mercedes Settle for Second Place at Belgian Grand Prix
Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo played the role of spoilsport, taking the title at the 2014 Belgian Grand Prix, as Mercedes AMG Petronas and Nico Rosberg had to settle for a second-place finish despite taking the pole position in qualifying. Even worse, contact between the two Mercedes cars early in the race resulted in a puncture in Lewis Hamilton's ride, and the Brit eventually had to retire in lap 38. According to the commentators covering the race, Mercedes is pretty much pinning the blame for the incident on Rosberg, and most probably justifiably so. Still, it is a fairly common racing accident and there seemed to be nothing malicious about it. Regardless, this… Continue Reading »
