van Duyse Entrepreneurial Leadership Institute - Sponsor A Leader Program
Thank you for choosing to make a difference in the lives of a young leader/entrepreneur in Africa. I know that your life will be richly blessed to see your student becomes a leader by overcoming the challenges of a world-class entrepreneurship curriculum.
A powerful leadership education will prove to be a launch pad for the realization of their dreams, and will empower them to change the world. That is our mission.
How does the 'Sponsor A Leader' program work?
Each student is responsible for their tuition fees. These fees are used to administer the educational program of the Institute. Your $360.00 donation covers one quarter of the tuition fees for one student for one year. In most cases and depending on his economic situation, the student pays 25% - 50% of the fees himself, and sponsors like you help by offering him a partial scholarships for the rest of the tuitions fees.
Making it a personal experience
Our Sponsor A Leader Program is designed to bring you into the lives of your student. We encourage you to communicate with him or her as much or as little as you want. Most of our students have cell phones, emails, Facebook pages and Skype accounts. They are actively growing and changing every week as they continually read and complete their assignments. You may choose to encourage your student as he or she reads and discovers ideas and principles that can help everyone become successful. This type of mentorship can have powerful effect in their lives and contribute to their success. In a few days, you will receive an email with the name and contact information of your student. We will do our very best to keep you informed of his or her progress.

A few more details
In order to safeguard the integrity of the 'Sponsor A Leader Program' and to help it to run smoothly we would like to share a few more thoughts:
1. No Extra Financial Aid
Do not send extra money to your student. Your student is poor and will have financial difficulties throughout the year. You will most likely learn of some of their difficulties in your communications with him or her but in order to protect the learning environment at the Institute we ask you to not send him extra money. If you have an idea please let us knows and we will try to find a way. BTW your student has already agreed to not ask you for money but we want to make sure this point is well communicated.
2. Academic Expectations
Educational bumps and bruises can be expected. We have put together a very difficult academic program is designed to transform young people into leaders. We continue to make changes to the program to increase our success. This cannot be done without the full participation of the student. It is possible for personal or academic reasons that a student may have to restart a semester or that they will be excluded from the program.
3. No Contracts or Long Term Commitments
This is not a contract or a long term commitment on your part. We know that if you are starting a 'Sponsor A Leader' program it's because you want to make a difference and that it is a good fit for you. That is what is important. We want first and foremost that you feel good about the support that you are offering. Feel free to stay connected to us for as long as you want.

We present an optically-stabilized Yb:KYW fs-laser frequency comb. We use an f-2f nonlinear interferometer to measure the carrier envelope offset frequency (f0) and the heterodyne beatnote between the comb and a stable CW laser at 1068 nm to detect fluctuations in the comb repetition rate (frep). Both of these degrees of freedom of the comb are then controlled using phase-locked loops. As a demonstration of the frequencystabilized comb, we generate low-phase-noise 10 GHz microwaves through detection of the pulse train on a high bandwidth photodiode. The Allan deviation of the resulting 10 GHz microwaves was measured to be <2.6 x 10-15 at 1 s by comparison to an independently-stabilized Ti:Sapphire frequency comb. This room-temperature, optically-based source of microwaves has close-to-carrier phase noise comparable to the very best cryogenic microwave oscillators.

Here in New York, it's a 100-degree Tuesday after the three-day July 4th weekend. It's the kind of day that makes many a sweaty corporate commuter long for a different way of life.
If you're thinking about declaring your independence from Corporate America, check out my new interview with Devesh Dwivedi over at Breaking the 9 to 5 Jail for some advice and inspiration. Devesh is a man very passionate about helping entrepreneurs find the resources and information that they need and his site features lots of great interviews with entrepreneurs and experts.
Today, I'm working from the air-conditioned comfort of my home office. However, I spent my July 4th fighting my way through angry, overheated crowds of New Yorkers to view the spectacular Macy's fireworks from the Circle Line pier. It was totally worth the struggle. Check out our photos.

by John Ingrisano
Pain or gain? That is why people buy – always!
As Entrepreneur Dan Paulson points out in his book, Apples to Apples: How to Stand out From Your Competition, "every purchase is an emotional purchase."
Your product or service either takes away the pain (I need a car or else I must walk to work.) or offers some kind of gain (My new phone does more and costs less.)
Your job? It is to help them either understand the pain of not taking a desired action (If you do not buy this product for your business, you will fall behind your competitors.), or to see how this new product or service will make their lives better/easier/happier/etc. (Investing in this class will show you how to get more done in less time, giving you more time for your family.)
What to do: When crafting your marketing materials and sales presentation, always keep the pain-and-gain concepts clearly in mind. One or both are the reasons behind all decisions to buy or not to buy.
Work hard. Make money. Have Fun. And sell to the key elements of pain or gain. –
John R. Ingrisano
The Freestyle Entrepreneur
"Every purchase is an emotional purchase…. People are primarily motivated to buy by two factors – pleasure and pain. A business has to offer products or services that reduce pain, increase pleasure, or do both." – Dan Paulson, president, InVision Business Development

Peridynamics, as originally proposed by Silling in 1998, is a spatio-temporal integral reformulation of the classical partial differential equations of motion. In contrast with the classical theory, the concepts of stress and strain are not needed in peridynamics. The original bond-based peridynamic theory has several drawbacks including being limited to modeling materials with Poisson's ratio of one-quarter. In 2007, Silling generalized his model by introducing state-based peridynamics. Sau et al. proposed a micropolar model for concrete in 2007, but were unable to fully implement the model. In 2011, Sakhavand developed software called pdQ that is capable of modeling micropolar peridynamics. While he did model concrete using the bond-based peridynamic theory, he did not attempt to model concrete using micropolar peridynamics. In 2011 Rahman developed a micropolar peridynamic model with hexagonal particle lattice. Rahman studied only linear elastic problems with this model. In this thesis, we propose a new micropolar peridynamic lattice-based damage model for concrete. The model is implemented in pdQ. This model is state-based, in that the force acting between two particles no longer depends only on the states of the two particles, but it also depends on the states of other neighboring particles. We obtained appropriate parameters for a micropolar, lattice-based, and state-based constitutive model for the concrete. Example problems, including uniaxial tension, uniaxial compression, and confined compression are considered. Known features, including elasticity, damage, and fracture, of concrete appear to be well-replicated by the new model. Also other example problems are solved to demonstrate the versatility of the new model.

A lung transplant is not usually considered a viable or even necessary form of treatment for mesothelioma. Malignant mesothelioma is not a primary cancer that develops in the lungs. The most common form of the disease, pleural mesothelioma, develops in the outer lining of the lungs, a membrane called the mesothelium. When mesothelioma is in its advanced stages, it may metastasize to the lungs. That is one of the reasons that surgical treatment of pleural mesothelioma may involve the removal of a lung: a procedure called an extrapleural pneumonectomy. However because mesothelioma is not a disease of the lungs, replacing a lung is not going to contribute to curing the cancer.
Types of Mesothelioma
Asbestos Exposure
Mesothelioma Treatment Options
Mesothelioma Patients and Lung Transplants
Complete resection of malignant tissue in a mesothelioma case is often a challenge; when it is accomplished it can be a major surgical endeavor. One of the criteria for eligibility for a lung transplant is that the patient be free of cancer and relatively healthy other than the pulmonary problem. An additional factor that is taken into consideration is age. Most mesothelioma patients are well into their sixties. So a lung transplant for a pleural mesothelioma patient is not a likely consideration.
Lung Transplant for Asbestosis Patients
Lung transplants have been conducted in a few cases for asbestosis patients who have developed severe fibrosis, to the point where breathing is virtually impossible. For most asbestosis patients however the odds are long because of the age factor. Asbestosis has a shorter latency period than mesothelioma, but most of the people who develop severe cases are well past fifty when the disease becomes acute. Older patients are not good lung transplant candidates and are not likely to be placed high on the waiting list. The history for patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis who have had transplants has not been good when the disease has reached an advanced stage. The same is likely to be true for asbestosis patients, who rarely get an early diagnosis.

Some staff who provide home care for older people in England lack important skills and training to enable them to deal with mental health issues such as dementia, finds a new report.
Overall around a quarter of home care providers do not meet all five national standards of quality and safety, concluded the health and social care regulator the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in a report published on 13 February.1
The report gathered findings from inspections of 250 domiciliary care agencies providing at-home support and care to around 26 500 people aged 65 or over in England.
The CQC gathered views from …

"Nick Lemann and pretty much everyone else up at Columbia are perpetuating an obviously-failing scheme, in which they send young people into tens of thousands of dollars of debt while teaching them some basic skills that those students could and should learn by doing. That some of these professors discourage their students from actually working, for money, in the field while in school is outrageous."
---Choire Sicha, The Awl.
Said of journalism schools; true of how many other university departments and graduate programs across the nation?

Nigel Adkins' Southampton missed the chance to move four points clear at the top of the npower Championship as a late equaliser from Jason Scotland grabbed Ipswich a point at St Mary's Stadium.
Saints looked on their way to another priceless victory when Rickie Lambert lashed home his 25th goal of the season in the 74th minute - but Scotland struck five minutes from time to claim a 1-1 draw.
Saints are now just two points above second-placed West Ham, who have a game in hand, and three over third-placed Reading, for whom Noel Hunt hit a first half winner in a 1-0 win over crisis club Portsmouth.
Pompey slumped to the bottom of the table after a 2-1 win for Doncaster at fellow strugglers Nottingham Forest. Frederic Piquionne and Kyle Bennett struck either side of the interval before Dexter Blackstock's late consolation.
Also at the bottom, Cody McDonald rescued a potentially priceless point for Coventry with a last minute equaliser against Crystal Palace. A fourth minute penalty from Darren Ambrose had given Palace the lead.
Goals from Seb Hines and Bart Ogbeche moved Middlesbrough up to fourth with a 2-0 win over Barnsley, while Blackpool blew a second minute lead through Thomas Ince at Derby, with a Steve Davies brace giving the Rams a 2-1 win.
Bristol City grabbed a dramatic 3-2 win over Leicester. Lloyd Dyer's opener for the Foxes was cancelled out by Kalifa Cisse and Brett Pitman for the home side. Neil Danns equalised before Jon Stead won it for City in the 79th minute.
Hull and Leeds shared the points in a dire goalless draw at the KC Stadium, while Millwall continued their recent recovery with a 3-0 win at Peterborough with goals from Hamer Bouazza, Andy Keogh and Harry Kane.

Aw, diddums. Moya Greene, the Canadian boss of Royal Mail, has let slip she was "deeply offended" by criticism over her £1.5 million pay package — resulting in her voluntarily returning the £250,000 housing allowance she received.
La Greene is being naive, if not disingenuous.
After all, she was working for a state-owned organisation, and previous Royal Mail boss Adam Crozier also faced a storm over his pay. Still, she does have a point. Fellow Canadian Mark Carney trousers a £250,000-a-year housing allowance as Governor of the Bank of England. But then he is on a miserly £874,000.
TalkSport masters language of success
Radio station TalkSport is expanding overseas as it has the international radio rights to 380 Premier League games a season, and is broadcasting to 22 countries from Ghana to Vietnam.
"If you go into TalkSport's offices on a Saturday, you'll hear people commentating in nine different languages," says John McCann, chief executive of parent company UTV, who has installed the foreign commentary teams below ground in the radio station's headquarters on the South Bank.
"It used to be called the basement of TalkSport, now we refer to it as the International Broadcast Centre," explains McCann, tongue firmly in cheek.
The cost of sending nine separate commentary teams to every match would be too steep, hence TalkSport has all the feeds from the grounds coming into the South Bank: "It's easier to centralise everything."
So it's a far cry from the days when TalkSport's previous management famously covered Euro 2000 by providing live commentary through watching games on the telly in an Amsterdam hotel room, despite having no rights.
Signs are Foxtons is failing to sell itself
Pushy estate agent Foxtons is a depressing feature of London life for anybody unfortunate enough to be hunting for property in the capital's frothy market.
But the company was unusually shy and retiring yesterday when formally announcing its intention to float, refusing to put up any senior management to talk, or even answer questions submitted by email, and referring hacks to the stock exchange statement. There was no such reticence over the holiday weekend when a clutch of newspapers was briefed.
Tellingly, Foxtons decided to handle the PR itself, rather than getting an agency in. As one old PR hand (starved of a fee) said: "It's not the way we would have done it. You put up the bosses, they shout about how good the company is and why you should buy the shares." Looks like Foxtons has already missed an open goal.
* "Sell in May, go away, come back on St Leger Day" is the hoariest of stock market clichés, but following the advice would have cost the average punter £47,627 over the past 10 years, says Hargreaves Lansdown. Investors in the FTSE 100 would have only cashed in four times in the past decade, it added. The Steady Eddie buy-and-hold investor who put £100,000 into the FTSE and left it alone would be worth £215,166 — well above the £167,539 earned by those who sold up in May and didn't come back until St Leger day on September 16. There are still 14 more trading days to go until then, but this year looks like another loser for investors following the old adage.
* The CBI certainly didn't miss a trick with the coup of the Bank of England Governor's first public speech today, charging each attendee at today's lunch in Nottingham £54 — £45 plus VAT — for the hot ticket. Unsurprisingly, the event was a sell-out. Let's hope the tucker was up to scratch.

Recently, I almost exclusively listened to techincal death metal, with exception of some old Death and a few other bands, but now lately, I've been checking out more and more of the straight stuff, like Morbid Angel, Immolation, Dismember, and so on. What else should I check out? I saw a Obituary cd at the record-store today, how are they?

i went to smog and it fail the Fuel Evaporative Controls Functional. what can i do to fix this problem? replace the canister?
The fuel evaporative systems probably won't fail furing the service life of the vehicle; however, if it does, the hoses or charcoal canister are usually to blame.
Always check the hoses at first. A disconnected, damaged or missing hose is the most likely cause of malfunctioning evaporative systems. Repair any damaged hoses or replace any missing hoses as necessary.
Checking for faulty canister:
Detach the canister from the firewall.
Detach the intake tube hose and put your fingers on the end of the canister inlet fitting.
Warm the engine to normal operating temperature, then increase the engine speed to 2500 rpm. If the canister is functioning correctly, air will be drawn into the canister through the inlet tube and you will feel suction. If you don't feel suction, replace the canister.
this is for those who have fail the EVAP during the functional smog test. STICKYYYY

Appalachian English
Welcome to this website on the speech of one of America's most often misunderstood regions - southern and central Appalachia, which stretches from north Georgia to West Virginia. It's been romanticized as the language of Shakespeare, and it's been caricatured, ridiculed, and dismissed as uneducated, bad grammar, or worse. But too rarely has it been appreciated for what it is: the native speech of millions of Americans that has a distinctive history and that makes Appalachia what it is just as sure as the region's music does.
Test Your Mountain Vocabulary! (will open in another window)
The speakers you'll hear were all born back in the 19th century, but there's not much they say that you won't hear today, just less often. Not long ago at a professional conference a linguist from the University of California remarked to me that "Appalachian English is one of my favorite dialects" and asked "Does anyone still speak it?" I looked him in the eye and after pausing a couple of seconds, replied matter-of-factly, "Oh, I'd say about twenty million people." He seemed a bit surprised, so I explained that mountain folks actually choose to talk the way they do and that their distinctive English is here to stay. Appalachian dialect defines who they are, whether they live in Kentucky or have moved to Detroit to work in a plant.
This site also has a bibliography of over five hundred publications on the region's English, the most comprehensive listing to be found anywhere. Sorry, there's no search engine for it yet, but because the bibliography is annotated, you can perform on-screen searches for all kinds of names, places, and expressions.

Le Creuset 9 1/2 quart French Oven
This is a serious multi-tasker. I can boil pasta, build sauces and soups, cook beans and lentils, or stew baby artichokes in it. Because of the cast iron core, it holds steady, even heat and the porcelain enamel coating makes clean-up ridiculously easy. Plus, the brilliant red really brightens up my tiny kitchen. Mine is fire engine red.
Oh yes. I can smell Thanksgiving dinner now. I'm a huge fan of Le Creuset's enameled cast iron cookware and stoneware. Take good care of these babies.Added 9 Years Ago from Williams-Sonoma

If we did a quick survey about the most common problems designers, especially new designers have to face, we would find that the expensive price of graphic design tools and applications top the list of these complaints. Even when companies like Adobe provide Creative Suites for more saving opportunities, they are still expensive for many designers around the world. Some designers try to overcome this problem by relying on free graphic design tools that allow them to reduce their software budget and minimize their need for the paid software.
But the question is, can free softwares provide a substitution for comprehensive and expensive softwares? In this poll article we will try to shed light on this topic and discuss the different pros and cons of free and paid graphic design applications.
Free Graphic Design Applications
Free graphic design applications are open-source applications that you can download free of charge and use both in your personal and commercial projects. Although the free tools do not provide the complex features and capabilities that paid softwares do, they still give you the basic tools that enable you to build your design or artwork.
Pros and Cons of Free Graphic Design softwares
While a free graphic design software gives you the advantage of creating your design without having to pay for those expensive applications, it has some pros and cons you have to consider before choosing these applications.
The pros of using free software includes the following:
- They are free and help you do your design project without having to pay high costs for paid applications.
- You can simply download and use them without any license or shipment complications.
- You can share them with anyone in your team and install them on any number of computers.
- You can re-install your operating system or change it without worrying about losing serial numbers.
The cons of using free softwares include the following:
- Many of these applications are not compatible with common graphic design extensions, such as PSD, AI, etc.
- Most of the features in these applications are limited and not as comprehensive as those of the paid softwares.
- They do not integrate with other graphic design applications. For example, Adobe Photoshop can integrate well with After Effects and you can transfer the files between them. You cannot do this with free applications.
- These are open-source softwares, so you will find that they are not updated and tested as often as the paid applications.
- Most free graphic design softwares do not provide customer support for users.
- There is a lack of tutorials and training for free softwares.
- You cannot share your work effectively with other designners who use professional and paid applications.
As you can see from the list above, there are a number of pros and cons of free graphic design softwares. While you will get these applications for free, you have to keep in mind the disadvantages of using these applications in your future projects.
Examples of Free Graphic Design Softwares
There are popular free graphic design applications that you can download for Windows, Mac, and Linux. Here are some examples of these applications:
Gimp is a free image manipulation program that allows you to do design and artwork in an environment similar to Adobe Photoshop. It creates raster graphics similar to Photoshop but it is small in size.
While it includes the basic design tools, it does not include advanced features and does not support CMYK or LAB color systems. Also, it has limited compatibility with PSD files.
Inkscape is a vector-based application in which you can create resizable artwork and designs. Similarly to Gimp, it is lightweight and small in size. Similar to Gimp, it is lightweight and small in size. Inkscape supports SVG scalable extenuation. Inkscape supports SVG scalable extenuation. On the other hand, its interface is messy and is not organized. Also, it does not include gradient meshes or effective filters.
MyPaint is an open-source graphic design application that is mainly aimed towards digital painting.Unlike the other applications, this tool is more directed towards digital artists and allows them to use it for creating concepts and digital artwork.
MyPaint is small in size, simple and user friendly, and its only disadvantage is that it concentrates on digital painting rather than graphic design.
Paid Graphic Design Softwares
Graphic design applications such as Adobe products, CorelDraw products and other paid applications are usually made by huge teams who have spent years developing these applications and getting feedback from the community to improve it and add comprehensive features that help the designers to achieve their tasks much easier.
While the free applications are limited, paid applications have a greater variety for designers to choose from based on their career and project needs. For example, graphic designers who work in image editing or general design can use Adobe Photoshop. Also, designers who work with vector-based illustrations can use Illustrator and CorelDraw. If you are a digital artist, you can depend on Photoshop, Painter, ArtRage, and other digital painting applications.
Pros and Cons of Paid Graphic Design software
Although the paid applications are very expensive, they have a lot of advantages that make them the first choice for most designers, as we will see below from the pros and cons of paid graphic design applications.
The pros of using paid softwares includes the following:
- They provide more advanced features than the applications.
- Paid applications support a large and wide variety of professional extension formats.
- Adobe applications integrate with each other so you can open your files in multiple applications with maximum compatibility.
- Companies provide specialized customer support for paid applications.
- You can find a lot of tutorials and training for these applications.
- Paid applications are well- tested and compatible with your operating system without causing any troubles.
- Behind these applications there are many experts and engineers who seek to provide a user-friendly interface and features that you really need in your work.
- You can share work and interact with other designers inside your team or from other companies, because you will work with similar formats and applications that most companies use in their projects.
The cons of using paid softwares includes the following:
- Their price is very high and is not affordable for many young designers.
- If you purchase a Windows license of the application and want to move to another operating system, such as Mac, you will need to purchase a new copy for your Mac.
- The advanced features and interface may look complex, especially for new designers.
- You need to learn how to use these applications in order to use them professionally.
As opposed to free applications, you will find that the paid design applications have more advantages and their most important disadvantage is their price.
Examples of Paid Graphic Design Applications
Many software companies provide different graphic design applications in different packages or solutions that meet each designer's need and industry. In the following examples we will take Adobe applications as an example for these applications.
Adobe Photoshop
Photoshop is the most well-known design application that every designer relies on in one way or another. While it is initially an image editing application, it also allows you to create designs for web, printing, desktop, mobile devices, and video production. Also, it allows you to create 3D designs and animations as you can see in How to Create a 3D Spaceship Scene in Photoshop.
Adobe provides different versions of Photoshop. For example, the Photoshop CS6 Extended version includes all the available features and you can get it for US $ 999.00. You can get Photoshop CS6 for US $ 699.00. Also, you can get Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4 for US $149, which is directed for photographers.
Adobe Illustrator
Adobe Illustrator is a very famous vector-based application that allows you to create vector graphics and includes comprehensive features that let you create complex artwork and add effects to your artwork in a professional way. You can use Illustrator to create artworks for web, printing, and animation. You can get Adobe Illustrator with a full license for US $ 599.00.
Adobe Flash
Flash is an animation and interactive application that allows you to create animations and interactive applications for web, desktop, and mobile devices. You can use it to create applications for Android and iOS using the Adobe AIR technology. Also, you can use it to create cartoon animations for video and TV production. You can get Adobe Flash for $699.00 U.S.
Adobe Dreamweaver
It is an old and famous application that allows web designers and developers to build professional websites using up-to-date technologies, such as HTML5 and CSS3. Adobe Dreamweaver can be purchased from Adobe for $399.00 U.S.
As you can see from the list of paid graphic applications above, they are very expensive, especially because most designers use a bundle of applications to create their artwork. For example, web designers rely on Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash, Dreamweaver, and Fireworks. Thus, Adobe provides bundles of these applications instead of offering them individually. Adobe provides the Creative Suite 6 bundle that includes several versions that are biased to each design profession. For example, the Production Premium Creative Suite 6 includes the applications required by video experts, such as Photopshop, Illustator, Premiere, After Effects, and Audition.
While the price of these applications exceeds US $ 4000 in total, you can get this bundle for around US $ 1.899. This is much less than purchasing the individual applications. Adobe provides the following Adobe Creative Suites:
1. Adobe Creative Suite Design & Web Premium, this package includes web design tools such as Dreamweaver, Photoshop, Illustrator, and Flash.
2. Adobe Creative Suite Production Premium, this package includes video production applications such as After Effects and Premier.
3. Adobe Creative Suite Design Standards, this package is aimed at print designers and includes applications such as InDesign, Acrobat, and Photoshop.
4. Adobe Creative Suite Master Collection, this package includes all Adobe products in one package and it costs $2,599.00 U.S.
Adobe also provides another way to save money through the Adobe Creative Cloud Membership, with which you can access all Adobe products for a monthly or yearly payment plan. You can find more information about these plans in another poll article The New Creative Cloud Membership: Is it Really Worth it?
In addition to Adobe products, you can find other paid graphic design software such as CorelDraw, which provides the CorelDraw Graphics Suite X6 for $499.00 U.S and Painter 12 for $429.00 U.S.
Based on the above comparison, you will find that it is hard to choose between free and paid graphic design applications, especially when companies are trying to provide solutions to overcome the price issues. But do you really think these solutions will help putting an end to the debate about using either free or paid design applications?

I've been a terrible brother. This past year my sister got married and I didn't do a blog post when I put them on facebook. It's almost unforgivable except that she loves me so much, right? My sister Kylie and Danielle got married this past September on the beachfront at Saxe Point Park in Esquimalt. It was a perfectly beautiful day with a ton of family and friends from across Canada joining them. I love you girls and am sooooo happy for you!
Here are my pictures with a few from my photography friends Darren Beckwith and Jesse Hlady. They saved my tail especially during the reception so I could hang out with my family for this party of a wedding.

Steel Valley's Morrison battles back after Tommy John surgery
Like others, Derek Morrison was told that pitchers who undergo ulnar collateral ligament reconstruction — better known as Tommy John surgery — often are better after the procedure when it comes to throwing a baseball.
There can be better velocity, better control and better bite on the slider. And, of course, the pain is gone.
Almost 19 months after undergoing the procedure on his left elbow, the Steel Valley senior isn't about to deny he's throwing harder, has better control and has a later break on his slider. But he will disagree on how he got to that point.
"I don't give any credit to the surgery for where I am at," Morrison said. "I am a believer that you become better and stronger because of physical therapy. Going through therapy, you are working muscles that you have never worked before, and that's where the success comes from. That's where my success has come from."
Morrison's success for undefeated Steel Valley (5-0, 3-0) through the first three weeks of the season has been remarkable, especially considering a torn ligament in the pitching elbow of a 16-year-old can be career ending — or at least end his days pitching.
Not Morrison.
After not even being allowed to play the field as a junior, Morrison returned to the mound this spring and has been spectacular. Morrison is 2-0 with a save in three appearances for the Section 4-AA-leading Ironmen. Morrison has struck out 13 in 12 innings and has yet to allow an earned run.
It's been a pleasant surprise for Steel Valley coach Tim Vickers.
"Even though he was talking about coming back to pitch, by no means were we planning on having him," Vickers said. "It was like a gift for us when was able to go out there. You have to understand, it was almost like he had to re-learn his entire body. It is almost like he is a completely new pitcher."
Vickers, who was a pitcher at Division II California (Pa.), is amazed by what he has seen from the lefty who had an 8-3 record and started every important game for the Ironmen, including a pair of playoff games, as a freshman and sophomore.
"His delivery is much more repeatable and much more precise," Vickers said. "Before the surgery, he was more effectively wild. Now he goes out there with a plan, and he works with it. He couldn't necessarily do that when he was a freshman and sophomore."
Still, it hasn't been an easy road back for Morrison, starting with a slight complication during his surgery that turned a two-hour procedure into more than four hours.
Typically, a ligament is removed from the wrist and placed in a figure-eight pattern through holes drilled through the bone inside the elbow to provide stability. But doctors decided to remove a ligament from his hamstring instead after realizing on the operating table that the wrist ligament wouldn't be strong enough.
"It was weird waking up and feeling a pain in my leg," Morrison said. "I started to get scared because I thought I went through the wrong surgery."
Morrison started his rehab almost immediately but wasn't allowed to start throwing until six months later. He gradually built up the strength in his arm and finally was cleared to throw 13 months after surgery.
However, pitching still was a question mark.
"It wasn't the fastball I was worried about. It was letting that first slider go because I tore it on a slider," Morrison said. "I was able to get the grip and go through the motions, but when it was time to go 100 percent with that pitch, I was a little bit hesitant. After I threw that first one and it felt good, I was good to go."
Still, Morrison, who hit .491 last year and is at .533 this year, got a scholarship to Division II South Carolina Aiken based on his batting, making him wonder if it was worth trying to pitch again after surgery.
"I definitely had that thought but only after this year," Morrison said. "I don't even want to think about pitching in college. I think that would be a ticking time bomb when it comes to my arm. I am more than happy to pitch now and will do whatever I can to help this team succeed this year."

Gilani confirms sending Taliban to Qatar
Gilani confirms sending Taliban to Qatar
KABUL (PAN): Pakistani Prime Minister Yusuf Raza Gilani on Thursday confirmed for the first time sending a high-level Taliban delegation to Qatar for possible peace talks with US officials, an official said.
Gilani said this at a meeting with President Hamid Karzai, who arrived in Islamabad on the eve of a trilateral summit. Karzai, Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari and his Iranian counterpart Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will meet on Friday.
The Karzai-Gilani meeting was also attended by Pakistan Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar, Interior Minister Rahman Malik, Army Chief Ashfaq Pervaiz Kayani and Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) Director General Gen. Shuja Pasha.
A spokesman for Karzai, Aimal Faizi, told Pajhwok Afghan News the president was assisted by his Foreign Minister Zalmai Rassoul, Afghan Ambassador to Pakistan Omar Daudzai and other-high ranking officials.
Faizi said Pakistan, for the first time, confirmed sending a Taliban delegation for talks to Qatar. Gilani stopped short of giving further details in this regard, but said his country supported an Afghan-led reconciliation programme, according to Faizi.
Gilani told Karzai the Pakistani government had arrested two suspects in connection with the assassination of High Peace Council chief, Prof. Burhanuddin Rabbani, who was killed in a suicide attack on his Kabul residence on Sept. 20.
Kabul alleges the attack was planned in Pakistan, asking Islamabad to thoroughly investigate the incident. Karzai praised Pakistani leadership for cooperating with the investigation of Rabbani's killing.
Gilani also sought Afghanistan's support for a gas pipeline from Turkmenistan to Pakistan. He urged Karzai to ensure Afghan soil was not used against Pakistan.
Last week, reports said Afghan security forces killed two Pakistani nationals after kidnapping them from Balochistan province. However, the governor of southern Kandahar province said the deceased were Afghans, who wanted to plant roadside bombs.
But Gilani said the Afghan post in the border region was located inside Pakistan and should be removed.
Karzai assured Kabul's support for the gas pipeline project and said Afghan soil would never be used against Pakistan at any cost, Faizi continued. Karzai promised a probe into the location of the Afghan security post.
The visiting leader asked the Pakistani government to allow hundreds of stranded Afghanistan-bound containers laden with textbooks to proceed from the Karachi port to the landlocked country. Gilani assured early release of the containers.
Karzai also called for the removal of hurdles to implementation of the recently-concluded transit trade agreement and resolving problems being faced by Afghan traders in Pakistan.
Accompanied by his delegation, Karzai later went into talks with Pakistani officials behind closed doors. He was assisted by Rassoul and National Security Advisor Dr. Rangin Dadfar Spanta.
Although details of the meeting were not released, an Afghan official privy to the talks told Pajhwok Afghan News on condition of anonymity the opening of a Taliban office in Qatar came under discussion.
Later, Karzai held an inform meeting with his Pakistani counterpart, Asif Ali Zardari, and Jamaat-i-Islami chief Qazi Hussain Ahmad. Ways and means of bringing durable stability to Afghanistan figured prominently at the talks.

Insulation under overhang
1 Attachment(s)
I'm new to the forum.
I have a property where, at the rear of the building, the ground floor overhangs entrance to the basement and garage. In the cavity of the overhang the previous owner merely installed (maybe 10 years ago) what looks to be black fiberboard sheathing loosely secured with a few wooden batons.
Photo attached below.
I'm looking to improve the insulation for the rooms above. My wife is of the mind to have the cavity sprayed with polyurethane foam (which we are considering for the garage ceiling), but I have some reservations (cost included) especially with it being on the exterior - damp exclusion etc.
Any suggestions what I might economically put in there and, if necessary, cover it with?
P.S. - Property is in Quebec, Canada. Winter temperatures typically -15oC and below.
Take a piece down and look to see if there's not already insuation behind that board.
Not sure you could get someone to foam spray a job that small.
Overhangs have a couple of issues.
1. Air Flow.
The warm air from the inside needsd to warm the floor. To do this we use insulation stops to keep the insulation down an inch or two.
So in a 10" space use insulation designed for a 8" space, with 2" above that can be kept warm against the bottom of the subfloor.
2. Insulation.
To increase the amount of insulation add styrofoam to the bottom of the overhang. 2" is about R10 and makes a big difference.
You will need to open this area up from outside, do the needed work and then close it back up and use unperforated soffit or whatever is your choice to cover it all in
Thanks for your reply.
Yes, I think I do need to pull down the sheathing and have a look at the structure.
I hadn't considered the possibility that there might be continuity between the inside sub-floor air space and the cavity itself and I guess it is critical to make that determination. I was working on the assumption that it would be sealed off from the interior and that insulation only served to retard heat exchange between the sub-floor immediately above and the outside air - in which case it needed to be air tight - either spray foamed or maybe caulked foam board - and possibly including some vapor barrier.
No gap to fiberglass insulation, gap OK with foamboard and fiberglass; http://www.buildingscience.com/docum...n-crawlspaces/
No vinyl flooring above. Cover with plywood, no vapor barrier required, has to dry to inside.
I've yet to go back to the property to check what might be under there other than the sheathing.
Just visited the property and had a look what's in the cavity; and it is just that - a cavity about a foot deep with rendered (parged, as thet say here) concrete on all sides - the 'ceiling' of it appears to be just an extension of the concrete ceiling of the basement and garage (not sure how thick). So there's no continuity with the sub-floor air space to consider - whatever air is circulating in the overhang sub-floor is above the concrete slab.
The cavity has just been stuffed with fiber glass with the sagging sheath board holding it up. A strip of what looks to be regular styrofoam has been glued to the 'inner' (house) side of the cavity, but there's nothing on the other side or ceiling.
I'm not exactly sure how the fiber glass has been up there (10 years at least) and how long it's good for, but I'm thinking to line cavity with insulation foam board (2", or 1-1/2" enough), stuff the fiber glass back in, and knock up some more batons to close with plywood. Does that sound reasonable?

The Curve 3G 9300 is a practical phone which suits those who need quick access to their e-mails and an easy-to-use keyboard to reply. The keyboard buttons appear small but are very easy to use, and the helpful spellcheck allows you to monitor your outgoing measages. Call sound quality is clear and the scrolling button is simple to use, however it can temporarily stop working if it gets wet. The battery life for the Curve 3G 9300 is long and reliable, even when using apps; however apps are slow to start and run, becoming frustrating at times. Music playback is of an average quality (sounding grainy at times), but can hold a decent amount of music, images and videos on the memory. This phone has no glamorous accessories but does everything that is required as a practical phoning/texting/e-mailing device. I would reccomend this phone for business on it's simplicity, but there are phones of better quality in this price range for those looking for a glamorous smart phone with apps.

GM Repair Problems? Ask GM Repair Expert Now.
Hello & Welcome,
Does this mean that the brake lights and the backup lights work, or are they out too?
I am so sorry - my wife had a kitchen emergency that I had to take care of.
Let me check the schematics and see what I can find.
Do you have a test light or multimeter you can use to do some testing?
OK - Now we are getting somewhere. Most of those lights are driven by the same circuit. Here is the schematic.
I have highlighted the fuse and the switch that controls most of the lights.
What I would do is check the fuse with a test light or multimeter to see if power is coming into and going out of that fuse. If that is OK, it would be time to check the pins on the headlight switch to see if it is working.
If you don't have the test tools, you can just check the fuse visually (look at it) and see if it looks like it is blown.
Please let me know what you find.
Take Care, Greg A.
That would be the next suspect. But I could not say without testing. I would recommend that you get a cheap test light or meter (they are only $5-$10) and make sure power is making it into the switch (at pin H of the schematic) and then comes out when the switch is turned on (pin S of the schematic).
Take Care, Greg A.
Sounds like a plan.
I really think it's the switch. I looked it up online and found that the switch assy is available at the local parts store. I will buy it and see if the new one works. If it doesn't, I'll simply take it back. I'm almost positive this will work.
I'll click accept as soon as I find this works.
Hi again,
As a quick test, you can carefully put a jumper wire from pin H to S and see if that makes the lights come on.
Thanks, XXXXX
Did you place the jumper wire between the two pins I mentioned above, as a test, before replacing the switch? Did you get a test light or multimeter to do some testing?
Ok - Thanks.
You might want to consider an inexpensive multimeter too.
A good test light or multimeter comes in pretty handy most times to figure these things out.
I am glad you got it worked out and that I could help.
