Denton's Dish: Magic at Cavs (4/15/12)
By John Denton
April 15, 2012
On Sunday, the Orlando Magic finally played their way into a bit of good news. The Magic can rest easy knowing that they are in the playoffs – even if they don't know what players will be available when they get there.
A Magic team that was already playing without starters Dwight Howard and Hedo Turkoglu and then lost Glen ``Big Baby'' Davis to a sprained knee battled through the adversity to beat Cleveland 100-84 to clinch a playoff berth.
Magic captain Jameer Nelson scored 21 points, handed out nine assists and grabbed seven rebounds to help Orlando snap a two-game losing streak and assure itself of a playoff slot for the sixth consecutive season. Jason Richardson added 16 points and four 3-pointers, while J.J. Redick had 13 points and three 3-pointers.
``It means a lot (to clinch the playoff berth) because once you get in the playoffs you have an opportunity to win,'' Nelson said. ``We have to play hard as we can the rest of the way and do some great things there (in the playoffs). But we still have to close the regular season out right and win these games in front of us.''
The Magic (35-25) moved into a tie for the fifth seed with Atlanta (35-25) and further distanced themselves from seventh-seeded Philadelphia (31-28) and eighth-seeded New York (31-29). The 76ers play in Orlando at the Amway Center on Monday, and the Magic could take a major step toward locking up at least the No. 6 seed with a victory.
Orlando also got major contributions for seldom-used reserves Daniel Orton (11 points, five steals, four rebounds and three blocked shots) and Earl Clark (13 points). The combination of clinching the playoff berth and getting a big night out of Orton caused the playful Davis to dump a pitcher of water over the second-year center's head in celebration.
``It was a big win for us and we really needed this one,'' said Ryan Anderson, who shook off another subpar shooting night (three of 11) and had 13 rebounds and nine points. ``It was a fun win because it was a team win. We have a lot of guys down and a lot of guys banged up and it was good to see the guys who haven't played much this year step up and play great.''
The Magic beat Cleveland, who was playing without Rookie of the Year favorite Kyrie Irving and on its third game in as many nights, for a ninth consecutive time over the past three seasons.
``I'm really, really happy for Daniel and Earl, especially Daniel because this is his first big opportunity. He came up big blocking shots and came up defensively. It was a great team effort, Jameer was fabulous and everybody who played contributed to the win. It was a really good win for us.''
The Magic's victory didn't come without a cost, however. Davis, who had filled in so nicely for the injured Howard the past two weeks, sprained his right knee just 7 minutes into the game and needed help getting to the locker room. The likelihood is the Magic won't have the 6-foot-9, 290-pound Davis on Monday against Philadelphia.
``I don't have any prognosis on him or any idea of when he'll be back. He hyper-extended his knee,'' Van Gundy said. ``My guess would be he probably won't play tomorrow night. When a guy doesn't come back in a game it's usually worse the next day. I'm going to guess that we won't have him, but maybe we'll get lucky.''
The Magic are also hoping to get lucky with Howard, who rejoined the team in Cleveland after flying to Los Angeles on Friday where it was determined that he has a herniated disc in his lower back. Howard received an epidural injection into his back on Sunday and the hope is that after 10 days of rest and rehabilitation he will be close to returning for the playoffs.
Here is a closer look at a few of the key moments from Sunday night's game:
- Nelson dominated the game by continually making all of the right plays in pick-and-roll sets. Van Gundy said he called one play for Redick and one play for Richardson in the second half and all the rest were for Nelson when the veteran point guard was on the floor.
Nelson had 11 points in the third quarter alone by making all five of his shots. With Howard, Turkoglu and Davis out, Nelson knew that he had to take control of the offense and run the show. He did just that by making eight of 14 shots and two 3-pointers.
``First and foremost I have to lead and get guys into their spots because they are playing different roles. But I also have to play my game,'' said Nelson, who also took his team-leading 20th charge in the game. ``Our guys did a good job of playing off pick and roles. I wanted to get into the paint and attack. They didn't have an answer for our pick-and-roll game so we ran a lot of those plays. We didn't have a post-up game so we had to go pick-and-roll.''
- Nelson predicted to Orton earlier in the season that there would come a time when he would be looked to to contribute impactful minutes for the Magic. That moment finally came on Sunday night for a player used only in garbage time previously.
Orton had a couple of dunks, a sweeping left-handed hook shot and five free throws on the offensive end. But defensively, he shined with the five steals, four rebounds and three blocked shots in a career-best 29 minutes.
``It just felt good to get a win because we really needed this win,'' Orton said. ``With playing more confidence comes and you start getting comfortable out there and you figure out what to do.''
- Magic players hit a couple impressive milestones in the second quarter on Sunday night.
When Nelson drilled a 3-pointer from the top of the key it extended his streak of consecutive games with at least one three to 30 games. That's the longest active streak in the NBA after Orlando's Ryan Anderson (34 games) and Kevin Durant (29 games) saw their streaks come to an end in the past few days.
Seconds after Nelson's 3-pointer, Magic small forward Quentin Richardson converted a tough driving layup in traffic. The basket put Richardson over the 8,000-point mark in his 12-year NBA career. Sunday was Richardson's 777th career game.
- A Magic team that can't afford any more injuries suffered another blow late in the first quarter when Davis went down while grabbing at his right knee.
Starting in place of the injured Howard once again, Davis lasted just seven minutes before going down. He was going up for a follow-up layup attempt but came down awkwardly on the knee and immediately went to the floor.
Davis needed help to limp to the locker room and he did not return to the game. The official diagnosis is a sprained knee for Davis, who will be evaluated Monday morning back in Orlando.
If Davis can't play Monday against the Sixers, Orton will start. Power forwards Ryan Anderson and Earl Clark could have to play some center as well. Orton hasn't started a game since he was in high school in Oklahoma.
- Orton, who is finally getting a chance to show why he was a first-round pick two seasons ago, had a stellar stretch early in the fourth quarter.
He converted a left-handed hook off a tip-pass from Anderson, blocked a shot and seconds later started a fastbreak with a long outlet pass.
``I'm always out there trying to get blocks, but the five steals that surprised me,'' Orton admitted. ``I was just trying to play good defense. That's one of the things that Stan asked me to do. … It's a great feeling to know that you have the team behind you. You enjoy moments like this when guys are proud for you. It feels good.''
- Cavaliers' fans gave a warm ovation for Magic shooting coach Mark Price late in the second quarter. Price played nine of his 12 NBA seasons in Cleveland from 1986-95. His No. 20 was retired in Cleveland after he finished 19th in NBA history in 3-point percentage. During his time with the Cavs, he was one was of only five players in league history to finish a season shooting at least 50 percent from the floor, 40 percent from the 3-point line and 90 percent from the free throw line. In addition to being the NBA's all-time leader in free throw percentage (90.4 percent), he ranks first in Cleveland history in assists and 3-pointers made.
- Who could have ever guessed that the Magic would have been in a critical situation needing a victory and had Orton, Earl Clark, Quentin Richardson, Von Wafer and Chris Duhon on the floor at the same time?
But in the end, the Magic bonded together, got stellar play from mainstays such as Nelson, Jason Richardson and Redick, and contributions from the likes of Orton and Clark, and earned a playoff berth.
``We all gave 100 percent effort. We figured we'd make some mistakes playing with guys who haven't played a lot during the year, but they played hard,'' Nelson said. ``When (the Cavs) made their run we didn't panic and we just kept playing hard. It paid off for us and we got a big win.''

Watch 40 Years of Hip-Hop History in Four Minutes
This video is something.
This video is something.
Adam Horovitz, aka Ad-Rock of the seminal hip-hop trio Beastie Boys, says the group is officially no more.
The Beastie Boys broke ground for so many Rap and Hip Hop groups that we know of today, and this interview from way back in the day, gives you an inside look at how they got their start and talk about their first big gig.
The loss of Beastie Boys member Adam 'MCA' Yauch is still being felt by many, and now Adam 'Adrock' Horovitz and the locals in Brooklyn, N.Y. are hoping to honor the rapper in a permanent way.
There are hundreds of Beastie Boys tributes on the Internet, including our favorite 'Sabotage' clip by some adorable kids. But a cool video recently surfaced of a rare unaired performance from the trio.
Days after the passing of Beastie Boys' Adam 'MCA' Yauch, the music world (and beyond) is still reeling. The loss has inspired many musicians to cover songs by the rap trio, and now fun. has honored the late MC with a unique rendition of 'Sabotage.'
Check Out Top 10 Beastie Boys Songs of All-Time
There are a lot of Beastie Boys tributes on the Internet following the death of Adam 'MCA' Yauch, but a Jay-Z performance of a Beasties classic has resonated with some devotees. Gawker highlighted the clip on their website so we figured you guys would like to "Ch-Check It Out" (see what we did there?).
According to TMZ, Beastie Boys rapper MCA has died at the age of 47.
'Sesame Street' is known for its musical numbers but generally the lyrics lean a little more optimistic ("Sunny day / Sweeping the clouds away") than the rhymes in the Beastie Boys single 'Sure Shot' ("I've got the brand new doo-doo / guaranteed like Yoo-Hoo").
Still, there's something about this Sesame/Beastie rap mashup that just seems so right. It's nostalgic, flute heavy and hey, there's even some counting! That's got to be worth something, right?
The video for the Beastie Boys' 1987 hit '(You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party!)' was what put the Brooklyn-born trio on the map.

Take Up Media Profession to Serve Society with Truth: Archbishop Thuma Bala
14 October,2012
Eluru (CBCI News): Media today is at the vortex of society and has profound influence on life and values, said Archbishop Thuma Bala of Hyderabad and Chairman of the Andhra Pradesh Bishops' Council Commission for Social Communications., was held at Andhra Pradesh Social Service Society, October 5-7. He was speaking at the inauguration of a three-day workshop in journalism and creative writing organized by Subodha Nilayalm Communications, (the diocesan Communication Centre), Eluru, in collaboration with the CBCI Office for Social Communications, New Delhi at St. Theresa's College, here, October 4.
Media is an important profession and a vehicle to impact society and serve truth, said Archbishop Bala. Highlighting the role of journalists in our society, he said the print media, specially the newspapers, continue to play a vital role in opinion formation, and in upholding the democratic and secular values of our country. While pointing out some of the misplaced values in today's media guided by profit and ethical ambiguity, he urged many more young people to take up the media profession so as to become torch bearers of change. Some 500 youth and educators attended the inaugural ceremony.
Archbishop Prakash Mallavarappu of Visakhapatanam and Apostolic Administrator of Eluru Diocese, who chaired the programmes said media is making a profound impact on society and people. He urged the participants to imbibe the skills and values needed to render their service as media persons to serve society more effectively. Others who spoke at the inaugural function were M. Ramesh, Superindent of Police, W. Godavari District, Fr. Jose Pottayil, Director General of St Pauls, Mumbai, Fr George Plathottam sdb, Secretary, CBCI Office for Social Communications and Fr. Alfonso Elengikal, Coordinator of the workshop.
Former Bishop of Kurnool and Nalgonda Rt. Rev Mathew Cheriankunnel, Sr. Ursula, the Correspondent of St Theresa's College and several other dignitaries participated in the inaugural function. The workshop subtitled "Unlocking Your Potential as a Journalist" was attended by 60 participants who included working journalists from print and electronic media, from the West Godavari District of Andhra Pradesh, Professors of St Therese's College, seminarians and nuns from various institutions.
The event was part of a series of media-related programmes being held across the country, to mark the two-year -long preparations for the forthcoming centenary of the founding of the Pauline Family by Blessed James Alberione, an Italian priest, who passionately promoted media and founded several religious and lay movements to continue his mission in the church and society.
The three-day intense workshop had sessions on news gathering and reporting, writing and editing skills, media careers, graphics and visuals in journalism, media ethics, public speaking, and a host of other topics. The workshop animators included journalists from newspapers like Vartha, The Hindu, Fr George Plathottam, Sr Helen Albuquerque, Fr George Kaitholil, Fr. Alfonso Elangjikal, D.Abraham and others. Two Telugu books authored by Fr P. Bala of Eluru diocese and published by Jeevandhara Publications of St Pauls in Andhra Pradesh were released during the inaugural function.
During the valedictory function attended by several dignitaries, including Sr. Mercy, the Principal of St Theresa's College, the participants were awarded certificates. Several participants spoke appreciating the rare opportunity they received to develop their skills through the workshop. One of the tangible fruits of the workshop was the setting up of a Media Core Team under the direction of Subodh Nilayam Communications and St Theresa' College for pursuing media training programmes in the district.

Baby Steps: The journey to walking
At first, babies barely move at all -- maybe a wiggle here and there. After a couple of months they start rolling over, then before you know it you are chasing a darting toddler everywhere you go. While every baby follows a unique schedule, you can generally expect your baby to start making his moves along a basic timeline. Here's what to expect:
Heads Up
At first, newborns can't lift their heads up without assistance. Between two and three and a half months, most babies will be able to lift up their heads while lying on their stomachs. "Tummy time" is important to help develop this skill. It might take another few weeks for your baby to be able to hold his head and neck upright on his own while sitting.
Baby Push-Ups
Is your baby trying to build his muscles? Actually, yes. He's working on being able to raise his head and chest and support himself on his arms or forearms. Look for this "push-up" behavior in the 3 to 4 month range.
On a Roll
Between 4 and 5 months, your baby should begin to roll over. Keep in mind that he may only roll in one direction at first until he masters rolling both ways.
I'll Just Sit Here By Myself
At five to six months, your baby will probably be able to sit with a little help, either by supporting himself with his hands in front of him or by getting leaned up against a cushion or pillow. Within another couple of months, he'll be sitting all by himself.
Crawling Along
By around eight months, you'll probably find yourself running around after a surprisingly fast, newly mobile baby. He'll start crawling, either "commando style" by creeping along using his forearms, or up on his hands and knees. Keep in mind that some babies start crawling backwards, some babies move directly from the "commando" crawl to walking, and some babies are in such a hurry to start walking that they never crawl at all!
Time to Cruise
One day when he's between eight and 12 months old, your baby will pull himself up to standing using any available piece of furniture. At first, he'll just stand, but eventually he'll get bolder and use those tables and chairs as support as he "cruises" around the room.
In Good Standing
At first, he looks like he's going to fall - but 10 seconds pass and he's still standing all by himself -- no assistance necessary. This photo op should arrive between 10 to 14 months.
Let's Go For a Walk
Somewhere between nine and 17 months, your baby will be ready for his first steps. (Believe it or not, not all babies are walking by one year old. The average age for those first steps is actually 13 months!) Get that camera ready!

Installing a pull chain ceiling fixture
I was attempting to install a new ceiling fixture over the sink...just a simple globe fixture. However the switch that turns that light on also turns a light on over the bar. I had wanted to put a ceiling fan over the bar so the only way I knew to be able to use one or both was to change the fixture over the sink to one that has a pull chain, that way if I wanted it off and the ceiling fan on, I could turn it off with the pull.
I took the old fixture out noticing that there were two black wires together, one white wire and two bare ground wires. I hooked the new pull chain fixture the same way and it didn't work, so we thought maybe it just wouldn't accept a pull chain fixture, so I put the old fixture back up...the two black to the one black, the one white to the one white and a ground on the fixture to the two ground wires....and now neither that light nor the one over the bar will come on. We checked the breakers and they all appear to be fine. It is a mystery to me why nothing will work no...nothing else in the house is not working. Any ideas what might be the problem?
Thank you,
Floyd Orr
You are missing a white wire.
Any other wires in the box?
This romex I assume.
The connections sound correct. Have you checked the bulb?
Jim, assuming two romex cables.
2 hots, 1 neutral, 2 grounds.
I would say something is screwy.
You have a broken neutral wire. The cable that has only a hot and ground has a white wire that broke off. You need to pull some slack and reattach.
I missed that it was only one white. The white piece that fell out is likely the incoming white to complete the circuit. Is there a white stub still in the box?
yes there is a white wire in that cable. reattach it.
Thank you...so it should work if I have two white, two black and two ground from the recepticle and attach them to the fixture???
I will have to pull the romex out a little and see...strange this is that the piece of white that fell out didn't give the appearace that it was ever attached to anything...not crimped at all
From what I am getting from all the replies is that in that cable...I should see two wires each of white, black and ground...and if we put them together and attach them to the new fixture...we should be ok? We will pull that romex down a little and see if there is another white...thank you
One other question...the original fixture was turned on by the wall switch that turned on both lights...does it cause a problem that I am wanting to replace that fixture with a pull chain one...wouldn't we still use the wall switch to keep the power on to both lights and use the chain to turn the one over the sink on and off and use the pull chains on the ceiling fan that we want to put over the bar to turn it on and off...should we not be trying to put a pull chain fixture in place of the original one? I wouldn't think that should have made a difference though.
Fix white wire. Pull chain is fine.

Well, after working 20 years in aviation, I finally got around to learning to fly. I did my first solo today in a 150 and I felt great. Only had 11.5 hours logged and my instructor had me do a couple of touch and gos, everything went well and he told me to pull over and let him out, Oh boy!!! here we go. Was not nervous at all and as I sit here and type means I am in one piece. Actually did quite well.

Congrats to you, one of my friends is a flight instructor and works at the local airport. It's nice to be able to take the GF up and over to the lake on a whim.
That's awesome.
My only question is, what do you call a woman with no arms and no legs flying a plane?
Thanks everyone.
I am fortunate because my CFI is a long time friend. He just retired from the AF and recently moved back to town. I work on the plane regularly to offset the cost, but I only have to pay for gas. His time is free. Although I think he wants me to get my private ASAP because he is tired of ferrying aircraft and is looking to have me do it too. He also is the airport manager and a IA, with all of the annuals he is doing, he hardly has the time to ferry aircraft. I would love to have the chance to get paid to fly and build hours too.
What are you waiting for ?. Go talk with Your Friend and let Him know Your in. He can probley see that already in You. Reach for the skies. Good luck and keep us posted.
Congrats. That first solo is something you'll remember forever. That 150 is a cute little plane, and fun to fly. I trained in a 152, which is a little peppier, and now fly a 172, although sometimes I take up my friends' 150 just for fun.
Have a great time... fly safe, and keep the shiny side down.
You may or may not have heard these before, but here are some "rules" to fly with:
1) Takeoffs are optional. Landings are mandatory.
2) If you push the stick forward, the houses get bigger. If you pull the stick back, they get smaller.
3) Flying isn't dangerous. Crashing is dangerous.
4) It's always better to be down here wishing you were up there, than up there wishing you were down here.
5) The only time you have too much fuel is when you're on fire.
6) The propeller is just a big fan in front of the plane used to keep the pilot cool. When it stops, you can actually watch the pilot start sweating.
7) When in doubt, hold on to your altitude. No one has ever collided with the sky.
8) A "good" landing is one from which you can walk away. A "great" landing is one after which they can use the plane again.
9) Learn from the mistakes of others. You won't live long enough to make all of them yourself.
10) You know you've landed with the wheels up if it takes full power to taxi to the ramp.
11) The probability of survival is directly proportional to the angle of arrival.
12) Stay out of clouds. The silver lining everyone keeps talking about might be another airplane going in the opposite direction.
13) Reliable sources also report that mountains have been known to hide out in clouds.
14) There are three simple rules for making a smooth landing. Unfortunately, no one knows what they are.
15) You start with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience.The trick is to fill the bag of experience before you empty the bag of luck.
16) In the ongoing battle between objects made of aluminum going hundreds of miles per hour and the ground going zero miles per hour, the ground has yet to lose
17) Good judgment comes from experience. Unfortunately, experience usually comes from bad judgment.
18) It's always a good idea to keep the pointy end going forward as much as possible.
19) Remember, gravity is not just a good idea. It's the law. And it's not subject to repeal
20) Always try to keep the number of landings you make equal to the number of takeoffs you've made.
21) The three most useless things to a pilot ?
a) altitude above you
b) runway behind you
c) 1/10 of a second ago.
22) Helicopters can't fly; they're just so ugly the earth repels them.
And my personal favorite: There are old pilots, and bold pilots, but there are no old bold pilots.
"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch; Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote."
-- Benjamin Franklin
23) there are old pilots and there are bold pilots... but there are no old bold pilots.
"Just blame Sixto"
I reserve the right to make fun, point and laugh etc.

"Sometimes people are stand-offish, wondering if I am going to give them a sales pitch, but when we start talking, they see that we are the real deal and that I have nothing to gain. No gimmicks – just an opportunity to have a nice conversation," said, Denny Walker, who moved to the community from the Philadelphia area. "People ask everything - like how much is our electric bill or what we like and don't like."Depending upon specific community facilities, Explore Del Webb allows interested homebuyers to stay at an onsite villa or to stay under a great rate at a nearby partner hotel. With almost 50 communities participating in the program, consumers can visit communities from California to Georgia and from the Carolinas to Massachusetts. For more information on participating communities go to www.delwebb.com/explore. The overall Explore concept has its roots in 1961, about a year after Del Webb opened the original Sun City just west of Phoenix, Arizona. The Kings Inn Motor Hotel beckoned visitors and encouraged them to test drive the Del Webb lifestyle during their stay. The hotel promoted "air conditioned rooms and color TV" while Del Webb provided post cards for visitors seeking an "active new way of life" to send to their friends back home. The program was a success. From 1967 to 1977, approximately half of the estimated 20,000 sales in the original Sun City were associated with the program, which is widely regarded as the first "stay and play" concept in America.

Dolly Parton's Imagination Library coming to Montcalm County
To improve educational opportunities for young children, a program is being initiated in Montcalm County to provide books.
The Dolly Parton Imagination Library is being brought to the area through the Montcalm County Great Start Collaborative.
Mindy Train, parent liaison for Montcalm County Great Start Collaborative, said the program will supply a book to every child in the county each month from the day the child is born until his or her third birthday.
"With doing some research, I have found out that we have 2,500 kids under the age of 3 in Montcalm County," Train said. "Our goal is to reach out to all the kids under age of 3."
According to the Dolly Parton Imagination Library website, the program gives something simple and powerful to children and parents.
"By reading regularly with our children, we can give them the biggest boost toward a successful education they will ever get, making a huge difference in their future and the future of our communities," the website says.
The program was founded by legendary country singer Dolly Parton with a dream of supplying children with their own personal library.
Train said in order to launch the program in March 2013, she has to have the first year's cost ready to go, which is $6,000. It costs about $27 per child per year.
"More then any other skill, the ability to read helps a child succeed in schools, function in society and have more employment options in the future," Train said. "Parents are a child's first and best teacher, therefore providing tools to parents to encourage literacy is critical."
To learn more about the Dolly Parton Imagination Library or how to donate to the Montcalm County program, contact Train at (616) 225-6146 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

text: I have an F.B Radom VIS Mod.35 that I would like to know the value of. The pistol is marked as follows: On the left side of the slide "F.B.RADOM VIS MOD.35.Pat.Nr.15567.(an eagle symbol – looks like a real bird) and (another symbol that looks like a scale). The second line on the slide shows the eagle (different from the one on the first line) above the letters WaA77 followed by "P.35(p)". The eagle and WaA77 also appears on the receiver.There is also what looks like two small "V"s and something else on the trigger guard. On the right side of the pistol the serial number"D0259" is stamped on the receiver. The pistol has a decocker, take down latch, grip safety, shoulder stock slot, and lanyard loop. It also has black plastic grips with FB on one side and VIS on the other. I believe this makes this one of the first Nazi production guns referred to as Grade 1 German VIS. Thanks for any help.

Key ingredients to great birthdays and successful construction projects5/13/2014 at 10:05 am by Blake Thompson
I had a birthday a couple of weeks ago, and I happen to be friends with someone else that has the same birthday as me (though I'm older than him). So we decided that we would try to play some golf as a mid-week birthday celebration.
It looked like all the factors were in our favor for a great day: the weather was fantastic, it was the middle of the week (meaning we were by far the youngest guys on the course), and we both hit enough good shots to make us want to play again soon. After the game, my beloved Chelsea FC was playing a match that if they had won (spoiler alert: they were defeated handily) they would have advanced to the most prestigious single soccer match outside of the World Cup. All in all, it was a great day. My wife even joined us to watch the game, so at least we had fun laughing and talking while Chelsea was being dominated.
In the days following, I kept thinking that I couldn't remember having a more fun birthday . . . and it got me thinking about why it was great. Perfect weather? Check! Good friends? Check! Fun activities? You know it! I started wondering how I could equate the three key ingredients to a great birthday with construction practices – and wouldn't you know it, I was able to string a few together! Here are my three key ingredients (though not the only ingredients) to a successful project:
- Accurate estimating. One thing I was struck by when I went to the International Builder's Show in February was just how important the estimating process is to builders. No matter what you use to create your estimates, it is critically important to bid competitively enough to win work, while making sure there's enough left over to protect profit margins.
- Budget and cost monitoring. Seems pretty simple, right? Track your costs . . . make sure you're not overspending compared to your budget. You also should have a feel for your projected expenses. Without visibility to what is actually going on, you're probably going to find yourself in some sort of trouble during your project. (Much like my golf swing finds me in trouble from time to time . . . but at least I get to see a lot more of the course, right?) There's a whole host of information about how to increase visibility into your job performance on the Job Ready site. I'd recommend it for anyone.
- On-time completion. Now, there can be all sorts of reasons for delays to a project—weather, trouble getting materials, or something taking longer than the time you expected it to take. The key is to monitor scheduling risks in order to make quick decisions on how to mitigate their impact on the schedule.
What are your most important aspects to a project?

Loose FWD shocks and drag racing safety
On the poor mans quest for a better 60 at the drag strip. Currently pulling a 1.46 60 and my front end has no travel. I can literally grab the bumper and lift up with all my might and it doesnt budge. Unfortunately I chose a 86 rx-7 chassis(light weight). There are no aftermarket drag shocks available. Running 8-way adjustable AGX shocks in the rear and front. Even on the lowest setting these shocks are very firm.
I decided to leave the factory springs and raise spring height. Then drill the FWD shocks and drain the fluid, then seal the hole. This resulted in a basically useless shock. Pulling up on the bumper by hand gives me a good 2.5-3 of travel now. There is a very slight dampening with the shock dialed to full firm. Still drives like I have no shock at all. Body roll is horrible, and the front end bounces. I did a few short street launches on the t-brake and the front end comes up very nicely now and seems to stay up as long as Im on the throttle.
So I guess my question is how unsafe is this? Ive heard of people doing this quite a bit but dont personally know anyone that has taken a low 10 second (133 trap) car down the track this way?

Starting Monday, a person who attacks a police officer and flees could find his description flashing on highway signs and on news outlets within minutes.
Utah has created a "Blue Alert" an Amber Alert-style warning system designed to get the public looking for people suspected of assaulting police officers.
"This would have provided a wider dissemination [of information] to the general public" in the recent shooting deaths of Millard County Sheriff's deputy Josie Greathouse Fox and Kane County Sheriff's deputy Brian Harris, said Layton Police Chief Terry Keefe at a press conference Monday.
"We might have been able to apprehend those [shooters] earlier," Keefe said.
Emergency responders who pushed for the statewide alert say that people who attack law enforcement officers pose an elevated threat to the public.
"We've got so many alerts out there, and we have to be judicious in how we implement these," said Summit County Sheriff Dave Edmunds. "But if you've got someone who's willing to take a shot at a police officer ... you've got someone who is capable of doing anything to the community."
The alert will activate the digital roadside signs now used for Amber Alerts, said Paul Murphy, spokesman for the Utah Attorney General's Office. It also sends notifications to other law enforcement agencies, ports of entry and the news media and may trigger a reverse-911 call.
It will only be used if an officer has been killed or seriously injured; if the suspect is an imminent threat to others; if police have enough information to help the public identify the suspect, such as a vehicle tag and personal description; and if notifying the public could avoid further harm or help police make a faster arrest.
Nine other states have Blue Alerts, and six more are considering similar systems, Murphy said.
Deputy Fox was shot and killed during a 1 a.m. traffic stop on Jan. 5, 2010. The suspect, Roberto Miramontes Roman, 38, fled to Salt Lake City and then to Beaver, where Roman was arrested with a friend who helped him flee. Roman is awaiting trial in 4th District Court on a charge of capital murder.
Deputy Harris was shot and killed Aug. 26, 2010, near Fredonia, Ariz., while tracking burglary suspect. Scott Curley, 23, was captured after a five-day manhunt and is awaiting trial in Arizona on a charge of first-degree murder.

Daily Summary on USD, EUR, JPY, GBP, AUD, CAD and NZD
• Disappointing U.S. jobs data weighs on dollar
• UK services sector PMI beats forecasts, GBP rallies
• AUD dollar continues slide on weak GDP data
USD – The US dollar weakened against most currencies after a report showed hiring in the U.S. private sector fell short of expectations last month, which reduced the chances the Federal Reserve could wind down its stimulus program any time soon. The greenback had rallied in recent sessions on the view that some upbeat economic data could prompt the Fed to taper its $85 billion per month quantitative easing program, a mechanism viewed as negative for the U.S. currency, as it involves flooding the market with dollars. But the moderate pace of hiring seen in May's ADP report may not be enough to persuade the Fed to limit the scale of QE. U.S. private employers added 135,000 jobs in May, according to the ADP National Employment Report today, compared with economists' median forecast in a Reuters poll for an increase of 165,000.
EUR – The euro traded range-bound against the US dollar but will most likely resume its weakening trend against the dollar over the next 12 months after wavering throughout April and May, according to a Reuters poll of 60 foreign exchange strategists and economists. The euro has fluctuated around $1.29 to $1.32 against the dollar over the last couple of months, but analysts expect the euro zone's poor economic prospects to keep piling on pressure in the months ahead. Further action from the European Central Bank would undercut the euro, with pressure growing on the bank to trim its main refinancing rate or deposit rate to new record lows.
GBP – Sterling rose against the US dollar after a survey showed Britain's dominant services sector grew more than expected in May, reinforcing views the economy would expand at a modest clip in the second quarter. The recovery also mitigated expectations that incoming. Bank of England Governor Mark Carney, who takes over in July, will resort to aggressive monetary easing in the near term. Britain's economy has basically flat-lined over most of the last two years and was only expected to grow between 0.2 and 0.4 percent per quarter through to the middle of 2014.
JPY – The Japanese yen rose against the US dollar after new Japanese growth policies fell short of expectations, hitting equities, and as investors awaited clues to future U.S. monetary policy. The Japanese currency was also boosted after a pledge by Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe to raise incomes disappointed markets due to a lack of detail, weakening Japanese shares.
Commodity Currencies – The Canadian dollar slightly weakened against the US dollar ahead of Central bank Governor Poloz's first testimony to the House of Commons scheduled for tomorrow. The Canadian currency should remain range-bound ahead of tomorrow's testimony and ahead of non-farm payrolls due out on Friday. The Australian dollar also continued its slide, down 1 percent against the dollar and 1.5 percent against the yen. Australian Q1 GDP came in worse than expected rising only 0.6 percent q/q and 2.5 percent y/y. The New Zealand dollar also weakened, although fared slightly better than its Aussie counterpart after the release of commodity figures (mainly concentrated in dairy products) fell 1.6 percent in May. The decline follows a record 12.6 percent rise in April. Continuing weakness is expected especially with AUD/JPY as carry trades continue to unwind coupled with further disappointing data out of the region.

Paddling Life Vests
Paddling life jackets offer some very different features than standard life jackets and offer a different fit and style as well. Paddling requires more movement from your upper body and wearing a standard life jacket will cause discomfort and get in the way of your natural movement needed to kayak, canoe or SUP. Companies took notice of the growing need for a paddling specific life jacket and for years we've had many choices from different brands that will offer a specified fit and design made for kayaking, canoeing or stand up paddling. ..Read More
- 1
- 2
So what is different from as standard jacket to a paddling life jacket? Below we will cover some of the main differences found between standard and paddle specific life jackets.
Paddling life jackets are all about mobility by giving you designs that offer a great range of motion so you can easily paddle your kayak, canoe or SUP with ease. Standard life jackets are not made to have the mobility of paddling jackets and will not offer as much of a free range of motion causing the user to feel constricted. Paddling life jackets will hold most their buoyancy in the bottom giving you almost backpack style straps on the top which are much more comfortable and easier to move around with.
Paddling life jackets are going to offer a more ventilated design to be more breathable letting moisture escape your body when necessary. Typically those that are using paddling life jackets are working a bit harder than others wearing standard jackets whether tubing or simply out on the lake. Paddling a canoe, kayak or SUP can be hard work and you can work up a sweat in some instances which makes the breathability of these jackets that much more crucial. On a day long paddle though having moisture build up can be very uncomfortable so selecting a good breathable paddling life jacket is very important.
Unlike standard life jackets the jackets for paddling offer a great amount of pockets and storage. Typically you need a few more supplies when kayaking so having pockets built right into the vest can work out great. Depending on the vest there are water tight pockets and valuable pockets that will be hard cased and more protective. Not all paddling life jackets are going to offer the same style pockets so be sure to check out the products description and information.
Obviously paddling life jackets are different than standard lifejackets and will offer more features and a different style fit. For anyone stand up paddle boarding, kayaking or canoeing we highly recommend a paddling life jacket.

One of Col. Potter's rescued girls wrote this and.. yes it's true. All the babies taken from me are now with me at the Bridge where I wait for momma... and daddy Doug who rescued me.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIpJAL2TzkU&feature=re lated
I remember you, my babies, you were all so very sweet.
I remember you my darlings from your noses to your little feet.
I long to share the sun in springtime, winter shield you from the cold.
I remember you my babies even as I'm growing old.
Some of you are at The Bridge now and someday I'll be there too.
You were much too young to know me but I sure remember you.
Someday we all will be together and what a time that will be
In paradise forever, all my babies and me.
Since The Bridge has become your home
I sometimes feel I'm so alone:
And though we now are far apart
You hold a big piece of my heart.
I never knew how much I'd grieve
When it was time for you to leave,
Or just how much my heart would ache
From that one fragment you would take.
God lets this tender hole remain
Reminding me we'll meet again,
And one day all the pain will cease
When He restores this missing piece.
He'll turn to joy my every tear
With thoughts of you I hold so dear:
And they become my special way
To treasure our Reunion Day.
I will never know what I did to deserve such an awful life full of abuse and neglect.
My life had become so sad and lonely it was like living in an endless, dark tunnel.
I remember looking up one day and seeing a bright light shining at the end of the tunnel.
The light was so bright I thought that God must have send an angel to finally end my suffering.
God did send an angel, he sent you.
The bright light I had seen was your smiling face.
You promised me that my days of neglect and abuse were over.
My battered body and broken spirit hardly dared to believe it was true.
You opened your heart and your home and gave me more love and comfort and safety than I had every known before.
You gave me the softest bed my tired, aching bones had ever felt
And more toys and attention that I had ever dreamed existed.
I no longer cringed when a hand was raised near me, because your
Hands had only kindness and treats to offer me.
I no longer feared the sound of feet approaching, because your feet
had never kicked me, they had only taken me on wonderful adventures to exciting new places.
Although "quantity" of time can be measured in days and weeks,
There is no way to measure the "quality" of time.
So there is no way to really measure just how deeply your love and devotion affected my life.
But sometimes, even love and devotion and all the medical attention in
The world can't heal a body that has been battered and broken for so long.
So please do not be sad that I am gone.
You performed a miracle in what little time we had together.
You made my spirits soar and helped my soul find peace and contentment.
From the day I met you I never suffered again, not even at the end.
Just knowing that my memory would live in your heart forever gave me
The strength to let go and find my way to the Rainbow Bridge.
So go forward from today with only happy memories of me in your heart
And let them give you the strength to keep on lighting up sad, lost lives.
Remember I will live forever in your heart and in the stars up above and
My star will shine brighter with every life that's touched by your love.

I have a paper that is due this coming monday and i found out today that my topic wont work (i know great)! The paper is a proposal paper. Like i said this is simply for a grade, NOT TO START A FORUM FIGHT. I just need some ideas and commits from all the duck/goose hunters out there. I think am going to propose that all public land waterfowling should end by 1 or 2 pm. I know that this is touchy but MO does it and has success and i know that we dont get near the birds that MO does. I just need some ideas on OPPOSING VIEWS, and reasons for why some of you would like this idea. This papers audience is to be the KDWP so it is not intended to be towards hunters. I know many have had great evening hunts but this is just for school. Like i said i do not want to start a war. I love to hunt the evening (being a student thats about all i get too) but just need some ideas on a school paper! If anybody has any good research websites that they good post it too would be appreciated.
Thanks :withstupid:
PS i will check in over the next day with questions and commits. Thanks to all who reply and anybody wantn to share a hunt in Manhattan or KC send me a PM

The Ford Model T has two stories. The obvious one is that it was a sound. a utilitarian device that motorized the United States. It was free from many of the quirks of other early cars. was thoughtfully engineered. and, for the time. was relatively easy to drive thanks to a semiautomatic epicyclic transmission. coolmath4kids

Henry Ford Devotion To His Work
Henry Ford (1863-1947) was an intuitive engineer who had trained as o machinist in Detroit and acquired a deep understanding of manufacturing techniques. But he never forgot his farmboy roots and wanted to produce a car of extreme practicality that would benefit the rural people to whom he felt closest. The flexible. well-sprung Model T was at home on the unmade rural roads that covered the United States at that time.
Why is The Model T So Popular?
The Model T also has equally great significance as a symbol and advertisement for Ford's production line techniques and became the focus of the worldwide admiration for what has since become known as Fordism. It has been suggested that the moving production line is the perfect realization of the project started in the Enlightenment to turn men into machines. Thus the eighteenth-century Scottish philosopher Adam Ferguson wrote. India vs Australia Live
'Mechanical arts succeed best under a total suppression of sentiment and reason. Manufactures prosper where the workshop may … be considered os on the engine. the parts of which are men.' This could be a perfect description of Ford's integrated Highland Park factory. Intriguingly, Ford and his methods impressed both Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin to an equal degree.
The Significant Art Of Engineering
Two car-mad young men have a dream to create their own brand. They put their design together in a parent's garage, and hey presto! – they have a popular product and an emerging motor business. So simple – and today so impossible. Festival Days
But not in 1911 when Archibald Frazer-Nash (1889-1965) and Ronald Godfrey (1887-1968) hold just left Finsbury Technical College. London. with diplomas in engineering and set up their own company. Godfrey & Nash (GN).
Their car had a two-cylinder air-cooled motor, more like a motorcycle than a car, and accordingly, come to be known as 'cyclecar'. By 1920 Archie had set up on his own. building more substantial Frazer Nash cars based on the same basic architecture.
One feature of the designs was that, instead of a gearbox. they used chains and sprockets of different sizes to give different speeds. These ran between an intermediate shaft under the driver's seat. to the block axle, and you 'changed gear' by dog clutches that shifted the drive from one chain set to another.
This was quick and effective. Moreover, the car had no differential gear. because the rear axle was a single piece. and drivers of GNs considered that the cars cornered best with plenty of throttles. The GN and Frazer Nash cars epitomized British sporting cars in the period-spindly and rakish, getting performance from lightness and simplicity.
Super-sporting drivers turned them into improbably frantic hill-climb 'specials' that often beat works entries from MG and Austin. such as Basil Davenport's GN Spider, which was always suffused. in the race paddock, with the fragrant aroma of methylated spirits-the fuel it ran on.
GNs and 'Noshes' also helped cultivate the generations of competitive owner-mechanics who become the backbone of that unique British institution. the Vintage Sports Cricket Highlights Car Club . An anonymous member even memorialized the inventors with this charming doggerel.

Extended Profile
One day I will find the right words, and they will be simple. ― Jack Kerouac, The Dharma Bums
CatharinaL (aKa CL)
A reader and a Sunday poet, I love literature and grab a book whenever & wherever I can.
I most often read in my native Finnish, but also in English, French, Swedish, and Esperanto; less in other languages. Originals and translations. Poetry, prose, drama, comics, non-fiction. Genres aside, I'm sold on subtle twists of humor. And hey—I'm always willing to explore.
Bookcrossing continues to introduce me to genres and authors outside my usual scope. I'd love to hear from fellow bookcrossers, the literati and the cognoscenti—feel free to PM me if there's anything on my bookshelf that catches your eye.
Reading and writing book reviews is my guilty pleasure, and journal entries are by far my favorite feature on bookcrossing.com. I have no demands concerning the books I've passed on, but I would tremendously like to see them journaled with a bit of personality!
I like to keep track of what I read. I also hope listing the books will eventually motivate me towards more organized reading. This year, I'll be venturing further into Judaica... yet hoping to squeeze in a variety of other genres as well.
My Wish List consists of out-of-print books, new publications that haven't come my way yet, as well as long-lost childhood favourites. I update my list regularly and wish to hug all the wonderful people who have fulfilled my wishes either via book swapping or RABCKing.
The Tampere BCers meet fortnightly. For meetup dates, any changes in the schedule, or other important notices, please see the Finnish Forum.

The UC Brain Tumor Center reflects a growing collaboration among the University of Cincinnati, UC Health University of Cincinnati Medical Center (UCMC), and the UC Cancer Institute. Our center serves patients with every type of brain tumor and employs highly trained physicians and nurses in multiple specialties, including Neurosurgery, Radiation Oncology, Otolaryngology — Head and Neck Surgery, and the Hematology-Oncology Division of Internal Medicine.
Our center was established in 1991 with a multidisciplinary structure and a mission to expand research efforts across medical and surgical specialties that focused on brain tumors. In 1998, with the establishment of the UC Gardner Neuroscience Institute, the center was renamed the Center for Advanced Brain Tumor Research and Treatment. Ten years later, in 2008, the UC College of Medicine and UC Medical Center committed more than $26 million toward expansion of the center, which was renamed the UC Brain Tumor Center.
The $26 million investment has enabled us to recruit additional clinicians and researchers, enhance and enlarge our facilities, invest in new technology, expand laboratory, translational and clinical research, and broaden services to our patients.
In 2011 we announced the formation of the Brain Tumor Molecular Therapeutics Program, whose researchers probe the biological mechanisms of cancer's spread to the brain while striving to develop new therapies for treating brain metastasis. A total of $6.5 million—a $2 million gift from the Harold C. Schott Foundation and $4.5 million in additional funds from the UC College of Medicine—was committed to build an interdisciplinary translational research and patient care program dedicated exclusively to brain metastasis.
In 2012 we opened the nation's first acuity-adjustable unit for neurosurgical patients. The unit is located on the hospital's fourth floor and primarily serves patients who are recovering from brain tumor surgery. The unit enables a patient to stay in a single room during recovery. Rather than having the patient move from room to room, the room's technologies, monitoring systems and intensity of nursing care adjust to the acuteness, or severity, of the patient's condition.

Chest infections are very common, especially in autumn and winter. Chest infections can be serious and need urgent treatment. However, many chest infections in otherwise healthy people do not need antibiotic medicines and get better quite quickly. If you feel very unwell then you should see a doctor urgently to see what treatment you need.
What is a chest infection and what causes it?
There are two main types of chest infection:
Acute bronchitis
This is an infection of the large airways in the lungs (bronchi). Acute bronchitis is common and is often due to a viral infection. Infection with a germ (bacterium) is a less common cause. See separate leaflet called Acute Bronchitis for more details.
This is a serious infection of the lung. Treatment with medicines called antibiotics is usually needed. See separate leaflet called Pneumonia for more details.
How common are chest infections?
Chest infections are very common, especially during the autumn and winter. They often occur after a cold or flu. Anyone can get a chest infection but they are more common in:
- Young children and the elderly.
- People who smoke.
- People with long-term chest problems such as asthma.
What are the symptoms of a chest infection?
The main symptoms are a chesty cough, breathing difficulties and chest pain. You may also have headaches and have a high temperature (fever). The symptoms of an infection of the large airways (bronchi) in the lungs (acute bronchitis) and a serious lung infection (pneumonia) may be similar; however, pneumonia symptoms are usually more severe.
When should you see a doctor?
Infection of the large airways (bronchi) in the lungs (acute bronchitis) usually gets better by itself, so there is often no need to see a GP. There are a number of symptoms that mean you should see a GP. They include:
- If a high temperature (fever), wheezing or headaches becomes worse or severe.
- If you develop fast breathing, shortness of breath, or chest pains.
- If you cough up blood or if your phlegm (sputum) becomes dark or rusty-coloured.
- If you become drowsy or confused.
- If a cough lasts for longer than 3-4 weeks.
- If you have repeated (recurring) bouts of acute bronchitis.
- If any other symptom develops that you are concerned about.
Are any tests needed?
Often no tests are needed if you have infection of the large airways (bronchi) in the lungs (acute bronchitis) and your symptoms are mild. If your symptoms are more severe and you need to go to hospital then you may need to have the following tests:
- A chest X-ray may be taken to confirm the diagnosis and the extent of the infection.
- Blood tests and phlegm (sputum) tests may be taken to find which germ (bacterium) is causing the serious lung infection (pneumonia). This helps to decide which antibiotic medicine is best to use. Sometimes the bacterium that is causing the pneumonia is resistant to the first antibiotic. A switch to another antibiotic is sometimes needed.
What is the treatment for chest infections?
Although most chest infections are mild and get better on their own, some cases can be very serious, even life-threatening. A bout of infection of the large airways (bronchi) in the lungs (acute bronchitis) usually gets better on its own within 7-10 days without any medicines. If you suspect that you have a severe infection of the lung (pneumonia), you should see a GP.
What should I do to treat myself?
If you have a chest infection, you should:
- Have plenty of rest.
- Drink lots of fluid to prevent your body becoming lacking in fluids (dehydrated) and to help keep the mucus in your lungs thin and easier to cough up.
- Inhale steam vapour, perhaps with added menthol. This can help to clear the mucus from your chest.
- Avoid lying flat at night to help keep your chest clear of mucus and make it easier to breathe.
- Take paracetamol, ibuprofen or aspirin to reduce high temperature (fever) and to ease any aches, pains and headaches. (Note: children aged under 16 should not take aspirin.)
- If you smoke, you should try to stop smoking for good. Bronchitis, chest infections and serious lung diseases are more common in smokers.
- If your throat is sore from coughing, you can relieve the discomfort with a warm drink of honey and lemon.
What about cold and cough remedies?
You can buy many other cold and cough remedies at pharmacies. There is very little evidence of any benefit from taking cold and cough remedies.
Cold and cough remedies often contain several ingredients. Some may make you drowsy. This may be welcome at bedtime if you have difficulty sleeping with a bronchitis. However, do not drive if you are drowsy. Some contain paracetamol, so be careful not to take more than the maximum safe dose of paracetamol if you are already taking paracetamol tablets.
Over-the-counter (OTC) cough and cold medicines should not be given to children aged under 6. There is no evidence that they work and they can cause side-effects, such as allergic reactions, effects on sleep, or hallucinations. These medicines are available for children aged 6-12 but they are also best avoided in this age group.
Note: paracetamol and ibuprofen are not classed as cough and cold medicines and can still be given to children.
What about antibiotics?
Antibiotics are medicines used for infections caused by germs (bacteria) and don't work on viruses. As bronchitis is usually caused by a virus, your recovery will rarely be helped by taking antibiotics. Taking antibiotics unnecessarily for bronchitis can cause side-effects and do more harm than good.
Pneumonia, unlike bronchitis, is often caused by a bacterium and may need treatment with antibiotics. If you have mild pneumonia, you can take antibiotics as tablets at home. If the pneumonia is more serious, antibiotics are given through a drip into a vein (intravenously) in hospital.
If the pneumonia is very severe, or caused by aggressive types of bacteria (such as legionella in Legionnaires' disease), you may need to be moved to an intensive care unit in the hospital.
What is the outlook (prognosis)?
Infection of the large airways (bronchi) in the lungs (acute bronchitis) usually clears without any complications. Occasionally, the infection travels to the lung tissue to cause a serious lung infection (pneumonia).
If you have pneumonia and are well enough to be looked after at home, your outlook is very good. If you need to be looked after in hospital, the outlook is still usually good - but not quite as good. The outlook is also not as good for people who also have long-term illnesses such as lung disease, heart failure or diabetes.
Can I prevent a chest infection?
There are measures you can take to help prevent chest infection and to stop the spread of it to others. You can pass a chest infection on to others through coughing and sneezing. So if you have a chest infection, it's important to cover your mouth when you cough or sneeze and to wash your hands regularly. Throw away used tissues immediately.
Immunisation against the pneumococcus germ (bacterium) - the most common cause of bacterial pneumonia - and the annual flu (influenza) virus immunisation are advised if you are at increased risk of developing these infections. See separate leaflets called Pneumococcal Immunisation and Influenza Immunisation for more details.
Cigarette smoke damages the lining of the airways and makes the lungs more prone to infection. So stopping smoking will lessen your risk of developing lung infections. See the separate leaflets called The Benefits of Stopping Smoking and Tips to Help You Stop Smoking.
