Would I Not Invest in my 401(k)?
Retirement planning is often a combination of an art as well as science. You can arrange for an annual retirement revenue that you would like to see inside your retirement years -- perhaps something that is a least the income that you simply earn now or a percentage of your current cash flow. You'll also want to estimate your expected retirement expenses and make sure anyone protect your retirement funds against inflation. You need to plan for a longer lifestyle to avoid running out of earnings during your retirement a long time especially if longevity works in your family. Consider, do you wish to retire and live off only your retirement savings or perhaps do you plan to work throughout retirement to product your retirement savings? If you aren't yet retired, should you continue saving in order to better meet the retirement goals? All of these estimates and factors are important to element into your retirement plan and your Financial Consultant can help you make sure that you are well positioned to be able to retire the way you need.
You have been told just how important retirement organizing is in order to ensure you retire securely and perfectly, especially if you are nearer to those days, but exactly where do you begin to plan for your retirement? Effectively, you should answer just about the most simple but most crucial questions to get you started * how much income do you consider you'll need to retire easily on an annual basis in your pension years? The amount you will need to fund your retirement should be inclusive of the sort of lifestyle you plan to possess in retirement as if your passions for traveling, the expected health care expenditures, and any goals you might achieve while you're outdated such as donating income to a cause you happen to be passionate about. Your specific retirement living needs will depend on your financial goals along with other aspects.
Use your current revenue as a benchmark
Normally, a good place to estimation the income that you'll need inside retirement is your current income. Your desired old age income can be a amount of your current income, which, depending on your financial goals, can be anywhere from 62 to 90 percent. This can be typically a favored method because it is backed by sound judgment analysis: Your current cash flow provides for your lifestyle these days, so taking that earnings or a percentage of in which income makes sense when you would expect this to cover your old age lifestyle if you decide to depart a similar lifestyle. Additionally, you may not face specific expenses in old age that you may face right now like paying your current mortgage or paying payroll taxes.
Nonetheless, you have to be careful using this approach to estimate your own retirement income, since it is not meant to be the cause of specific situation. You will find things you do within retirement that you may not do in your existing lifestyle such as intensive travel. Traveling for instance can easily demand 100 % of your current earnings, or even more, to ensure that you manage. Nevertheless, it's fine to use a percentage of your existing income as a place to start, but it may be a good plan to go over your bills in detail to see which expenses will go away, lower, or increase while you transition into retirement.
Project your retirement expenses
Once you get a perception of your necessary yearly income in retirement, it should be enough to cover all of your retirement expenses. Knowing your pension expenses is a essential step in the old age planning process, but many people have a hard time discovering what these expenses are and how much should they expect to spend in each area. Getting the mind around this challenge is even more difficult if you're still far off from retiring. Below are some widespread retirement expenses that you need to plan for in advance:
�Food as well as clothing
�Housing: Rent or even mortgage payments, property fees, homeowners insurance, repairs
�Utilities: Petrol, electric, water, phone, TV
�Transportation: Car repayments, auto insurance, gas, auto maintenance, public transportation
�Insurance: Health care, dental, life, disability, long-term care
�Health-care costs not covered by insurance: Deductibles, co-payments, medications
�Taxes: Federal and state income tax, funds gains tax
�Debts: Unsecured loans, business loans, credit card installments
�Education: Children's or grandchildren's college expenses
�Gifts: Charitable
�Recreation: Vacation, dining out, hobbies, leisure time activities
�Care for yourself, your parents, or others: Costs for a nursing home, home health aide, or other kind of assisted living
Remember that these costs will go up over the years specifically due to inflation. The average once-a-year rate of rising cost of living is about 3% to 4%, which is the rate at which your own purchasing power will decrease.
Also, as much as we would like to plan for each and every retirement expense, these kind of expenses may consist of one year to the next. As an example, you may have happily paid your mortgage or even a child's higher education costs early in or because of your retirement. At the same time, other outlays such as healthcare fees may increase as you get older. But you ought to hedge yourself because of these ups and downs by being careful in your estimates. Your own Financial Advisor might help take a look at your bills to make sure that they are as accurate as possible.
Make a decision when you'll cease working
You retirement wants don't stop at simply estimating how much cash flow you may need to cover your current retirement expenses as well as live a comfortable retirement. You will also have to factor in approximately how many many years your retirement savings will have to last you. Obviously, the longer your retirement years, the more retirement cash you'll need. This will in part depend on when you want for you to retire and to some extent on your longevity. As an illustration, you may feel that you are to retire with 50. Even though nothing is wrong with that if your financial predicament allows for it, you will have to bear in mind that a retirement living starting at Fifty will cost substantially much more to fund than a going at 65.
Appraisal your life expectancy
Your current lifespan also performs an important role alongside the get older you plan to retire. A long life will definitely cost more because you will need to have income for those additional years of retirement to fund. There is also a horrifying likelihood of outliving your retirement savings/income. To make sure you do all you can to stop that risk, you simply must conservatively estimate your lifetime expectancy. You can use a number of resource in this regard including government statistics as well as life insurance tables that will help you get a good estimate of the way long you are anticipated to live. These dining tables are based on many aspects, including your age, sexual category, race, health status, occupation, family history, and so forth. Needless to say, these are quotations and there is no way to know for sure how long you'll live, but because people nowadays are living longer and also healthier lives, it can be reasonable that you will are living longer than you expect.
Recognize your sources of old age income
Once most of these estimates of your retirement income needs constructed and they are as precise and realistic as possible, the next thing to do is always to see what you have done up to this point to ensure you are prepared to meet these kinds of needs. In other words, what's going to be your retirement revenue sources? Your employer may have a traditional monthly pension in place that will pay out pension benefits once you retire. You will also acquire Social Security rewards. To get your Social Safety benefits information you can check out the Social Protection Administration's website (www.ssa.gov) and request your statement. Other source of retirement earnings may include contributions that you have made into a company 401(nited kingdom) plan or IRAs, annuities, and other investments you may hold. The amount of income why these retirement sources will generate will depend on how a funds are invested, it return, along will other factors.
Make up any kind of income shortfall
If you are fortunate enough, your retirement living income sources will certainly generate more than enough income so you can fund your own retirement. But what in case there are shortages? Don't worry - there are ways to bridge that space. Your Financial Expert can help you put together a collection of strategies to fill in the gap in the best ways.

My poor little lad is having some problems doing a poo (if you'll excuse my frankness!). He poos about 3 times a week and he seems to find it really uncomfortable straining and pushing and then his bottom looks a bit red afterwards. He is breastfed and we follow baby led weaning. I wonder if he is having enough water? I do offer him water throughout the day but he doesn't have much - how important is this given he is still breastfeeding?
I offer him lots of fruit, vegetables and also foods like meat, yoghurt and sometimes pasta or rice but he chooses which food to eat himself so this can vary day to day. Is there anything else I could do to help him?

The recipe was : 4 egg yolks, 1/3 cup cornstarch, 1 1/2 cups water, 1 1/3 cups sugar, 1/4 tsp. salt, 3 tbls. butter , 1/2 cup lemon juice and 1 tbls. finely grated lemon zest.
It cooked up just fine...although I made it with extra large eggs. Could that have been the problem?
I poured it into my pie shell and after it had cooled to room temp. I put it in the fridge. I was serving it the next day.
I made Swiss Meringue (the day of serving) instead of the usual because it had been requested by the "Birthday Girl". Could that have been the problem? I took pie out of the fridge, put on the meringue, toasted the peaks with a small propane torch and then put it back in the fridge. I took it out about an hour before service to bring it up to room temp and cut into it to see that the lemon had not set up....anybody got any ideas? Thanks for any input.....

Second-Rounders, No. 33 to No. 42
Second-Rounders, No. 33 to No. 42
We've now gained glimpses of the majority of this year's talent from the draft's top rounds. Some have been in bit duty, others getting more extensive early opportunities, but all have had eyes on them and books are taking shape.
With contributions from PFF analysts Nathan Jahnke and Steve Palazzolo, I will be focusing here (and in the ensuing installment) on the second-rounders, breaking down what they've put on display through the preseason's first two weeks. Which players are showing they belong? Which are fading as they face NFL competition? We've got some notes to mark their entry into the league.
Pick No. 33 – Brian Quick (Rams)
When you are starting two slot wide receivers (Danny Amendola and Steve Smith) and giving the majority of additional "11" personnel snaps to Austin Pettis (as the Rams are) it's a pretty good bet that the first pick of the second round won't see too much action initially. He's catching some balls on shallow slants with the two's, but that's not a great indication of his likely impact.
Pick No. 34 – Coby Fleener (Colts)
So far, the overall feeling from watching Coby Fleener play is one of being underwhelmed. He's got a lot of snaps in the first halves of both games (although he did come out in certain packages) but nothing stands out, other than some tentative blocking.
Andrew Luck has been flinging the ball about a lot so four receptions for 38 yards on five targets of what works out to be one game of football, isn't a lot. He did also drop his other target; a slant against the Rams in close coverage by Craig Dahl.
Maybe if his blocking had been good those numbers wouldn't look so average but, unfortunately, it leaves a lot to be desired. On blocks close to the line he usually lets the defender take the initiative and on the first play of the second quarter against the Steelers we saw him get pushed back by Larry Foote. Downfield, he's slow to engage and looks like he's unsure of what's expected. Not surprisingly, his worst two plays came against Lamarr Woodley who tossed him aside easily to stop Donald Brown for a short gain and then put him on skates for what fortunately turned out to be a quick pass by Luck.
Pick No. 35 – Courtney Upshaw (Ravens)
While Ravens fans certainly want to see Upshaw on the field, in the first preseason game he didn't play at all while the Ravens used players like Albert McClellan and Sergio Kindle with the first-string defense. In Baltimore's following game against the Lions, Upshaw didn't start but was in on the second and third drive at right outside linebacker/defensive end. He failed to create any pressure lined up against Jeff Backus while the Lions threw on the majority of plays. He lined up a few plays on the left side as well, but that didn't help him get to Matthew Stafford either. The few times the Lions ran the ball, it wasn't in the direction of Upshaw. During the Lions fourth offensive drive, the Ravens had a mix of starters and backups in but Upshaw wasn't one of the players on the field; not a memorable debut.
Pick No. 36 – Derek Wolfe (Broncos)
For Denver, Derek Wolfe is in a heavy rotation at defensive tackle as either the third or fourth player up. Against Seattle he also played outside, at defensive end (a la Red Bryant) on seven plays that I logged in the first half. While I only saw him for five plays against the Bears, he made up for that with 25 against the Seahawks.
My initial impression after his first game was excellent as on his second play he pushed Gabe Carimi back into the halfback blowing up a run and then, on the very next snap, sacked Jason Campbell as he stepped up in the pocket. Similarly, with the Seahawks, his early plays were impressive; getting inside RG, J.R. Sweezy to make the tackle to force a punt and later jolting Max Unger back to clog a lane. After that, though, the glamour faded and he looked easily controlled particularly when facing the two offensive tackles on the outside.
Pick No. 37 – Mitchell Schwartz (Browns)
After a pretty torrid outing first up, starting at right tackle against Detroit, Mitchell Schwartz settled down somewhat against Green Bay, but that may well have more to do with the quality of the opposition than any improvement on his part. In Week 1 he was up against one of the best young left ends in the league in Willie Young who, in 10 passing plays, blew past him for a strip sack and a pressure. There would have been a further hurry too but for right guard Shawn Lauvao peeling back and digging him out of trouble. The only good news (if there was any) was that the false Start called on him should really have been on Lauvao.
The following week he was playing against fellow rookie Nick Perry (who had had a good initial outing as you can read here). In this encounter, after nearly a full half of action, Perry had nothing on him. That was the good news. The bad was that he really didn't move well at all; overbalancing on three separate occasions, looking lost at the second level on the one occasion he got there and having a few problems anchoring against C.J. Wilson. It was an improvement, but not a significant one.
Pick No. 38 – Andre Branch (Jaguars)
The Jacksonville Jaguars were looking for a three-down defensive end to start opposite Jeremy Mincey, and Andre Branch has been given the opportunity to fill that vacancy. He's got plenty of plays against the first units of the New York Giants and New Orleans Saints, but he was generally quiet as a pass rusher against the first-team offensive tackles. The Giants' Sean Locklear handled him well, while the Saints' Jermon Bushrod also held him in check. Branch did show some explosiveness off the edge, but he did so against the backups for each team.
In his two games, he's pressured the quarterback on four of his 31 pass rush attempts, including a sack that came on a stunt with Mincey against the Saints. In the running game he showed the ability to fight off blocks, so he should be able to contribute on early downs as he develops his pass rushing repertoire. One other element to keep an eye on is Branch's ability to drop back in coverage as the Jaguars did so three times against the Saints, perhaps a sign that the zone blitz will be a big part of the arsenal in Jacksonville this season.
Pick No. 39 – Janoris Jenkins (Rams)
So far he's started both games, not done much wrong and appears certain to man the right corner position against Detroit in Week 1. He's only given up one first down in each game; the latter on a tricky roll-out where he ended up in man and the first, an out route to Colts rookie Ty Hilton on a pass from Andrew Luck. On that throw he tried to undercut the play, going for the interception and just missing, but maybe this hints at a gambling nature which may be exploited.
For the record, in coverage, he also has a forced fumble credited to him against Kansas City when he came up to make a tackle on a slant. On replay that looked more a function of poor ball security from Jonathan Baldwin but the tackle was solid.
Initial indications are that robustness of tackling will transfer to the running game too as he has made efforts to fight through blocks and on one play against the Chiefs, cut through traffic to bring down Dexter McCluster on a WR screen that seemed destined for bigger things.
Pick No. 40 – Amini Silatolu (Panthers)
Over the course of the two games watched of each second rounder, I'm not sure anyone impressed me as much as Amini Silatolu. The fact that he was even in a position to start given he hails from Division II, Midwestern State is surprising enough, but to play as well as he did, given the caliber of the opposition, is remarkable.
Playing first Houston and then Miami it wasn't an easy beginning and he was bull-rushed early in the first game by Antonio Smith into giving up a pressure, but then showed a lot of skill in all facets of play. He moved smoothly in space, got to the second level quickly and in the second outing made an excellent downfield block on Jason Trusnik on a screen. If he was initially beaten in pass protection, he fought to recover and also picked up an awful lot of stunts for a preseason game against the Dolphins. In the end, that hurry from Smith was his only major error.
In week three of the pre season he'll be given another major test when he faces the Jets and their rather exotic blitz packages. I for one will be interested in how he performs.
Pick No. 41 – Cordy Glenn (Bills)
You don't get a couple of much tougher assignments to start your NFL career than Brian Orakpo and the Jared Allen. That was how Cordy Glenn, starting at left tackle against first Washington and then Buffalo began his tenure in Buffalo.
All things considered, you have to say this was something of a success. Overall he false started twice but the second was so marginal I watched it three times and still couldn't see anything. His pass protection was very solid and a bull-rush from Orakpo aside he was blameless in three quarters of play. In the running game he was less assured, struggling at times to move right, but once he locked on he could always get his man moving backwards. He doesn't look the most athletic of players, but always seemed to be in good position and that will suit the Bills well enough.
Pick No. 42 – Jonathan Martin (Dolphins)
I'd heard about Jonathan Martin's performance against the Panthers before watching the game and my impression from what was written was that Martin might as well pack up and leave now, so bad was he. Well, while it wasn't pretty neither was it quite the debacle I was expecting. It didn't help that the Panthers commentators were so biased (and at times inaccurate of their assessment of certain plays) it probably left most people thinking that Charles Johnson was the next coming of Reggie White. [NB: if you want to see bad right tackle play that will live up to your expectations check out Wayne Hunter against the Giants last week.]
Only once was he beaten particularly badly; on the running play with 0:53 left in the first quarter where Johnson blew past him without slowing and threw down Reggie Bush for a yard gain. On another running play he actually got decent movement on the end but because right guard Artis Hicks couldn't hold his man and hence his gap, the runner was forced outside towards Johnson and the commentator's applause. They also had him pinged for a hit and a sack, but he was tripped on the former and, while not blameless on the sack, neither was he helped by a quarterback who didn't step up with the DLE taken deep.
It is also worth noting that Martin had a very solid game first up against a pretty good all-around end in the Buccaneers' Michael Bennett where he only gave up a single minor outside hurry.
The remaining Second-Rounders: No. 43 – No. 52, No. 53 – No. 63

Samuels to Amla, OUT, dropped. No, not quite. Gayle has taken the rebound. All Jamaican wicket. Samuels has lopped up a wide half-volley, Amla goes for the extra-cover drive, but doesn't get enough elevation. Gayle nearly drops it from head high, but as the ball is falling in front of him he goes down to complete the catch on the third take. Second take on the right hand, and the third on the left
HM Amla c Gayle b Samuels 23 (57m 27b 2x4 0x6) SR: 85.18
Pollard to Ingram, OUT, slower ball does it. On a length, pitched outside leg, but Ingram is too early into the shot, and ends up skying it towards deep midwicket. Little Bravo runs to his right, a long way, and judges the catch well, and then kicks it away
CA Ingram c DM Bravo b Pollard 73 (83m 63b 6x4 2x6) SR: 115.87
DJ Bravo to Duminy, OUT, strangled down the leg side? Or is he? This is short, down the leg side, he is trying to pull it, but ends up gloving it. Not quite a strangle

Rampaul to de Villiers, OUT, Little Bravo, you beauty. What a catch. Slower short ball, de Villiers pulls it, high and to the right of midwicket. Bravo goes with it, body slanted, both feet in the air, sticks out the right hand, and holds on. And then coolly walks towards other fielders
AB de Villiers c DM Bravo b Rampaul 37 (50m 26b 2x4 1x6) SR: 142.30
DJ Bravo to du Plessis, OUT, yorker outside leg, hits him on the pad, throws the stumps down as they try a leg-bye, and he has caught du Plessis short. That's a set man gone, and the new man will be on the strike too. Superb worl from Bravo in his follow-through
F du Plessis run out 35 (53m 32b 3x4 1x6) SR: 109.37

Why manufacturing matters
2012 Manufacturing Sector | (5.9MB pdf)
This report from the Value of Jobs Coalition examines the positive impact a healthy manufacturing sector has on wages and benefits for Portland-metro workers and their families.
Like previous research, the goal of this report is to inform policy-makers and the public about our region's economic challenges and point out opportunities where we can improve our quality of life through private-sector job creation and retention and better wages.
Our coalition's previous studies highlighted the important role of international trade and traded-sector industries in helping to grow private-sector jobs and increase wages. Previous studies also showed how increasing wages and job growth translate into a healthier public sector with better schools, livable neighborhoods and greater social equity.
This study looks at one critical part of the traded-sector economy — manufacturing. Although traded-sector services are of growing importance, the production of traded-sector goods (i.e., manufacturing) is still the backbone of Portland-metro's traded-sector employment. This report shows that a strong manufacturing sector translates into higher incomes and significantly better health and retirement benefits for Portland-metro workers in manufacturing careers.
Rank of Oregon as a manufacturing location by the American Institute for Economic Research in 2011.
Rank of Portland-metro in percentage of jobs in manufacturing.
Percentage of Portland-metro manufacturing specialized in high-tech sector – twice the U.S. average.
Value in dollars of Portland-metro's manufacturing sector output in 2010.
Number of employees in average Portland-metro manufacturing plant.
Percentage by which manufacturing wages and salaries exceed those of non-manufacturing jobs.
Percentage more in wages a non-white manufacturing worker earns compared to a non-white, non-manufacturing worker.
Percentage by which manufacturing benefits exceed those of non-manufacturing jobs.

Yanmar and SailDrive
We ran into a weird situation last week with a new Yanmar and Saildrive on a new 42 foot sailboat. WHile sailing the maxprop continued to rotate even after placing the transmission in reverse or in forward gear. Turned out the zinc was lose and that might have inhibited the blades from properly feathering. More importantly I was surprised that placing the shifter into reverse did not stop the rotation. Upon communicating with the commissioning yard, they decided the problem related to the shifter not being able to change the state of the transmission unless the electronics to the engine were activated. They told me there is an electronic link between the shifter and the transmission and the only way to place the transmission in gear was to either leave it in reverse when I turned off the engine or to nearly simultaneously move the shifter as we shut down the engine. I do not know if this explanation is accurate and until the prop fouls again, I won't be able to test this hypothesis.

If you're talking about the 28 +- horsepower Volvo engines of recent history (popular sized engines in the 32'-36' boat range), models MD11, 2003, and the later model D1-30 (which I have), all say that the control lever should/shall be in neutral while under sail:

I'll have to see if that is even usable with my boat. The prop must spin through a cut-out between the keel and rudder so often other prop types aren't feasible.

Re: Propeller Drag - Challenging my intuition
Modern Navy ships (gas turbine) with dual shafts do this all the time. During normal cruising, either the port or starboard shaft is being driven by a single engine (each shaft is coupled to two engines). The offline shaft spins freely with no engines on line. This plant alignment is called "Trail Shaft" and it is very efficient.
Obviously there are differences here, but the point is that trailing a propeller still uses less fuel than having two shafts online.
How fast the trailing screw turns will be a result of the vessel's speed, obviously. But the Navy does not lock the shaft. As the trailing screw turns, drag is reduced. If you aren't going fast enough to turn the trailing screw then drag really isn't a concern in the first place.
Now, whether or not you should lock your shaft is a question of how your gearbox is made. Your manufacturer can answer that question. But as to drag, the trailing screw free wheeling is better than being locked in place.
*This information is public.
Automated Propulsion Control for Optimum Thrust and Fuel Efficiency
Re: Propeller Drag - Challenging my intuition
Ok, What you are experiancing is exactly why on an apature boat, lock in line with the keel. Sailing slowly there is not enough energy in the water flow to spin the prop thru the gap. Once you are up to speed there is enough flow to break it out and spin it though. But, You are still taking energy from the sails to spin the prop that you wouldn't be using with the prop locked. A true test for you would be to let the prop align itself lock it and sail. Unlock it and let it spin, your speed would likely drop as you say. But, now lock it out of the gap and you speed would drop even more. It's all about energy conservation.

Re: Propeller Drag - Challenging my intuition
The real question is what does the manufacture of your trans recommend. Mine says (Catalina 30) to put it in reverse which locks it so it won't turn. Neutral turns half the trans and it isn't lubed properly an in forward can damage it over time. I have forgotten a few times and so far no damage but I choose to follow the makers recommendation. I don't notice a difference in speed and I'm not racing. Hey it's a SAIL boat, if I wanted to get there fast, and not enjoy the ride as much, I'd have a power boat.
Re: Propeller Drag - Challenging my intuition
I sail a Bristol 24 with a YSE8 diesel and a 2 blade prop. I put the transmission in neutral when sailing, but the prop rarely spins unless I'm doing hull speed. I have the propshaft marked so I can tell when the prop is vertical. The prop normally aligns itself vertically behind the keel at sailing speed less than 5 knots. However; when going fast enough that the prop spins, I have on several occasions, found the sailing speed to be less than it is when the prop is locked vertically behind the keel cut-out. I've seen from .1 to .5 knots difference immediately when the prop is stopped from spinning and positioned vertically. It's not much, but it's always slightly faster when stopped.
I can see where a boat with an exposed prop would have more drag when the prop is locked, rather than spinning, but for a full keel boat with a 2 blade prop, I don't see an advantage for letting the prop spin.

text: Season 2006/2007 Record 47-35 Everyone expected surprises from this young Toronto squad, as well as success from Colangelo, just not this quickly. In one year the team transformed from the perennial conference bottom-feeder into a very competitive group. The team has won its division. From the fan's perspective, for the first time in five years the season didn't end after 82 games. In this year Raptors took a very important step – it's molded into a team. Sure the team has its weak spots, they are not up there yet with the best of the best in the NBA, but now Canada has a TEAM and looks like that team is not going to go away anytime soon. The core of the team is there to stay and is not going to fall apart. Offseason Draft No picks. Key Trades Acquired: Carlos Delfino (Pistons) and Jason Kapono (Heat) Not a bad addition that should keep Raptors as one of the deeper teams in the NBA. Delfino's addition makes more sense. He should help with his defense and rebounding. He likes to attack from the face line. When Bosh is playing in the high post, where he likes to operate, the Argentinean should have some space for his maneuvering. Left: MoPete. When Toronto signed Parket, MoPete got lost in the mix and him leaving didn't surprise anyone. Offseason grade: B Season 2007/2008 Toronto is really playing a different brand of basketball which creates many inconveniences for the opposing teams. Most of the NBA clubs are emphasizing physical play, watching the 3-second zone. They are not used to the game that Raptors players play. They are not used to center taking half of his shot from beyond the 3-point line. And in addition the second big can really run and very active creating matchup difficulties for the post 4's in the game. As any team that plays small ball (Suns, Warriors) Toronto has problems defending its basket. Even last season in the playoffs Nets had multiple opportunities to score off the offensive boards. Raptors defense is really not bad at all. The team can play solid organized defense and does it from time to time. If you perform the calculations per 100 possessions (which is a more universal indicator than points score/allowed) Raptors are sitting 12th in the NBA. When Ford, Parker, and Delfino are on the court, team's perimeter defense is covered. Toronto also has a very long and solid bench. Everyone except Bosh as an equal coming off the bench to sub. There's a question who is better – the starter or the player coming off the bench. You have Calderon coming in for Ford, Delfino or Kapono for Parker, Nesterovich for Bargnani, or vise-versa. Garbajosa and Graham. Dixon, Baston… When you look at it their bench is long enough to form an additional NBA team. Note of importance Chris Bosh. 17.5 ppg, 39% shooting, 9 rbs These are the stats from the first round of the play-offs against the Nets, not the regular season stats. Chris is a big boy. He made an all-star team; his team has won the division. And his responsibilities are in tow. So, each duel that he lost to Richard Jefferson, each board that he lost to Nachbar made its way onto the pages of the newspapers, into the sports talk shows and TV programs. Bosh has all the tools. He has great athletic abilities and incredible mid-range jump shot. He needs to develop some character. It is especially noticeable on defense. He is usually passive and lacks initiative (looking as though he is trying to preserve strength for the offensive end where the team really needs his help), but sometimes he looks like he just stops. He can just stand and watch at an opposing player just having his way under the Toronto basket. Will it change or will Bosh's game remain the same? Calderon. He is very quick and solid PG whose offensive game just grows. He is one of the better decision makers in the NBA and averages less than 1.5 turnovers per game. Bottom Line Team's depth and game speed under the guidance of Ford and Calderon should be enough to repeat last year's result. Playoffs – yes Championship - no

VA orders facility directors to regularly review scheduling
The directors at Pittsburgh and other Department of Veterans Affairs medical facilities will have to personally review their scheduling procedures at least once every 30 days, according to a directive handed down on Wednesday by Acting VA Secretary Sloan Gibson.
Gibson, who took over the agency after Eric Shinseki's resignation May 30, is trying to steer the embattled VA through a nationwide scandal over secret wait lists for veterans seeking care and charges that the bureaucracy shields its leaders rather than holds them accountable.
"Our top priority is getting veterans off of wait lists and into clinics," Gibson said in a statement.
The announcement says directors will have to talk in person with schedulers to ensure they're following VA policy. The announcement doesn't mention talking to veterans in person about scheduling performance.
VA public affairs spokeswoman Ramona Joyce issued an email response that didn't directly answer a Tribune-Review inquiry about the announcement's omission of talking with veterans. Gibson "has been clear about his view that veterans, veteran service organizations and all stakeholders play an important role in making the department better," she said.
Dr. David Macpherson, interim VA Pittsburgh director, will meet with veterans in addition to schedulers to talk about wait times, VA Pittsburgh spokesman Mark Ray said.
VA leaders met with vendors on Wednesday as they prepare to take bids on a new scheduling system. Last week, the House and Senate passed bills to make it easier for veterans to get VA-paid care in private hospitals if they can't get an appointment quickly, or if they live more than 40 miles from a VA hospital.
The House bill would cost about $44 billion over five years, compared to $35 billion over 10 years for the Senate bill, according to preliminary estimates by the Congressional Budget Office.
The Government Accountability Office noted that it's "not possible" to know how long veterans wait for private-sector care because the VA doesn't track wait times outside of its system.
More than 630 veterans waited longer than a year on a secret list at the VA Pittsburgh, the agency acknowledged. On Friday, Gibson suspended with pay VA Pittsburgh director Terry Gerigk Wolf.
VA leaders said they suspended her not because of the wait list, but because of a Legionnaires' disease outbreak at the VA Pittsburgh during which at least six veterans died and 16 others were sickened between February 2011 to November 2012.
An internal VA investigation found schedulers across the country manipulated wait times to make it appear as though hospitals met the agency's two-week wait time goal for appointments.
"Veterans must trust their health care system and these reviews are an important step toward restoring integrity in all our scheduling activities," Gibson said.

What do you think of your body?
Many gay men don't like their bodies very much. That might seem surprising, given the amount of time many of us spend at the gym. We probably devote more time and effort to cultivating our physical selves than any other demographic group. Just the same, research indicates that straight men like their bodies most, followed by gay women; straight women like their bodies less than these first two. The group that likes their physical appearance the least is gay men.
Why is this?
Gay men spend a lot of time in places that place a premium on physical appearance: bars, gyms, sex clubs. We live in a sexualized subculture that places a premium on physical beauty, and media and advertising bombard us with images that reflect an impossibly high standard of physical beauty. Under circumstances like these, it's easy to confuse who we are with how we look.
We all like looking at attractive men, of course. Still, more and more men even men with bodies that most of us would agree are muscular and very attractive find themselves very dissatisfied with how they look. At it's most extreme, this situation is called body dysmorphia a preoccupation with some imagined defect in appearance when the person involved is actually very normal looking. This problem can lead to depression and trouble forming healthy relationships.
Research indicates that eating disorders and body image problems are linked with public self-consciousness, social anxiety and feeling dishonest about who one really is. Men with internalized homophobia who have difficulty accepting themselves as gay are probably especially likely to develop a distorted body image or eating disorder.
Compared with women, who generally only worry that they are too fat, many gay men worry that they are either too fat or too thin. This misperception can become a genuine distortion disorder that could be called "reverse anorexia" or "bulkorexia." Even when dramatically muscular, men with this misperception feel they are too small or thin.
It's easy to see how men who have grown up with images of limp-wristed, reed-thin gay men form this sort of reaction and seek to show that they don't fit the stereotype. Preoccupation with muscles becomes a way of relieving fears about our masculinity.
Places where gay men socialize especially bars, gyms, and sex clubs, often emphasize physical attributes or make those the first criterion for checking someone out. It can be difficult for someone who is older than a certain age or different from the prevailing cultural standard of beauty to catch someone's eye in a bar or club.
The Western cultural tradition we inherited has often exalted the spirit while minimizing the physical body, despite the fact that our spiritual traditions often remind us that our bodies are a reflection of the divine.
In Judaism, God is considered to have created humankind in God's own image. Christianity celebrates God putting on human flesh as the central event of history. Pagan spirituality also celebrates the body. Recovery of Goddess imagery over the past generation has helped women to understand their wombs and menstrual flow and other parts as sacred; exploration of both Pan and the Green Man in male spirituality has helped us do the same as gay men.
And yet we often view or bodies with ambivalence or embarrassment. One New Age chant I learned a few years ago goes, I am not a body; I am free. I am still as God created me. A related tradition sometimes talks about our bodies as Earth suits. Both of these perspectives make me at least a little uncomfortable. Sure, I am not only my body. But my body is not a suit of clothes. It is sacred: a pathway to the divine, something holy.
My body is one of the things that makes me unique. Bodies are specific. I'm not a generic spirit. My soul resonates within this particular body: male, 46 years old, gay.
As spiritual people, we struggle to give our bodies a proper place in our spirituality. We need to love and accept our entire selves including our bodies without over-identifying and objectifying them. Understanding that our bodies enable us to connect with other men and women through the mystery of lovemaking, through touch, through eating and drinking together, helps us to appreciate what a good thing it is to have a body. At the same time, we know that flesh is mortal. If we listen carefully, we know that our bodies are speaking to us over time telling us that our time here on earth is not infinite. We will die. The body is our teacher in this sense. It enlightens our spirituality.
Accepting your body is a spiritual practice. There are practical things you can do which help heal your body image. First, take the concern seriously. Don't confuse who you are with how you look. Develop a sense of identity based on all of your attributes and on your values, not simply on your appearance.
Put your body back together. Consider stretching, yoga and massage as ways to help yourself feel like more than just "skinny legs" or "love handles." Indulge in body pleasures long baths, massage, good sex, a walk in the park on a sunny day. Make your own list.
Learn to appreciate body types in all shapes and sizes. Don't trash men (or women) who don't conform to the "buffed" image. Seek alternative role models. Don't emphasize body size or shape as an indication of a man's worth or his identity as a man. Learn to value the person inside.
And finally, confront homophobia, including internalized homophobia. Don't accept being treated as a second-class citizen by straight society or by other gay folks.

I received my CC permit a week ago saturday and my Crossbreed Supertuck arrived last saturday morning. I wore the holster and gun all weekend, except when at church. I was really impressed with how comfortable it was. I worked in the garden, planted the wifes flowers, drove 25 miles to a friends house, watched TV. I found myself checking it often, but since there was no one around most of the time that was okay. I was trying to wear it at 3;30 to 4:00, I wore a tee shirt untucked, but when I did tuck just to see what it looked liked, my wife said that it was very noticeable where my belt went over the holster. It may be that I just need to wear it enought to conform to my body, and maybe I'm just being selfconcious. I want to thank the guys on here that directed me to Crossbred, so far I am really happy with how comfortable it is.
When I went to the friends house, they were not there, so the only times I wore it when people were around was last night for about an hour when my renter showed up, and today when my niece and her kids were here. really had to resist the urge to check it. Nearest Wal-mart is 60 miles away, but headed that direction this week so might try a walk through. Went to town today, but was headed to the Post Office among other places, and did not have time to check out if can carry there, so left it home for a few hours.
BTW I amcarring a Colt govt. mocel 380. I don't know how you guys carry anything larger.
thanks for all the great advice I got on here.
Artho welcome to the board. I too enjoyed my crossbreed. I carry a subcompact SA with a good (IMO) belt. As for printing your wife knew where your gun was and it is hard, at first, to realize that people really do not pay that much attention.
^ +1.
First, a welcome.
Like Cattus said, most people will not be that observant: as long as your gun's not showing or there's a neat imprint of what's clearly a gun bulging out of your shirt/pants, the vast, vast majority of people will not know. Nevertheless, it's always good to strive for "best practice," and what's more, such clips are often recognized by fellow CCWs/CHLs and/or law-enforcement...or even the less scrupulous elements of society.
If the clips really bother you, give their "J-clips" a try, particularly if you wear pants that are stout enough and ride well enough on your hips that you don't need to worry about the weight of the weapon dragging your pants down. The "J" clips use your pant waist to support the weight of the holster/firearm combo, while the "J" hooks onto the belt during your draw-stroke to prevent the holster from being extracted. With my CBST, this is usually how I wear it.
Alternatively, you can get creative - modify some of the "C-clips" of the Comp-Tac MTAC Minotaur to work with the CBST. The "C-clips," unlike their "J" counterpart, also grabs on to the top of the belt, and thus still use the belt as their weight-support/distribution mechanism.
Finally, I believe both companies offer clips with VELCRO on the outer surface - which allows you to mate it with the counterpart VELCRO on the inside of your belt. This is as close to getting the clip to disappear as you'll get (aside from having the clip actually be a loop of the same material that your belt is made out of - that works well, too), but will require either modification to the belt (stitching in a little VELCRO) or a specialized belt (many of the high-end belt makers, both leather and nylon, offers this option).
Congrats on the new permit and holster...may you soon hardly even notice the firearm on your side.
Stay armed...Stay safe!

Congratulations! You will always feel it a little, but it's a comforting feeling. The Crossbreed is one of my favorites. After awhile, I have to guard against being too nonchalant about carry. The less you notice your gun, the more you need to notice your surroundings.

Thanks "high pockets" I will look into that. It has been over a year since I took the required class and need to brush up on the laws. for right now i'm just practicing around home. I will carry in the truck when on the road.

I've found that you'd darn near have to yell "hey, look at my gun" before most people would even notice. Even then, more than half wouldn't know what you were talking about!

Just an update, I was on the road for work and ended up near my brothers place, so I called him and made arrangements to stay at his house. I can't carry while working, but once I got near his house I stopped and put on my supertuck. By brother has his CC permit and is usulally very observent. I got to his house and we hung out for about an hour, then he and his wife and I went out for supper. after supper I told them I had got my permit, and was carrying, even after I told them they still could not pick it out. I guess I don't need to be so self-concious of it.

The reformed New Bohemians recently performed at a benefit concert in Long Island, appearing on a bill with Lyle Lovett and Paul Simon. (Hmmm, I wonder how they got that gig?) A source close to the band -- OK, it was Carol Brandon, prodigal drummer Brandon Aly's mother -- reports that the New Bos looked and sounded good, and mothers never lie, right? Brandon also said that the band has written 10 new songs and that it's in the process of trying to nail down a record deal with an undisclosed label. Meanwhile, The Best of Edie Brickell & The New Bohemians, released on Geffen Records in England earlier this year, is still waiting on an official U.S. release date. We haven't received the copy we ordered from Amazon.com yet, but word is that "What I Am" does indeed appear on the disc...
The Tomorrowpeople have parted ways with longtime manager Shaun Edwardes. "After so long, it was decided that Shaun was perhaps not the man to handle the day-to-day business affairs of the band," bassist Trey Scholz reports in a recent e-mail. The band is also looking for a keyboardist-guitarist to replace John Norris and Darrel Herbert, both of whom recently left to pursue other options. Submit your résumé when the Tomorrowpeople perform at the Galaxy Club on August 14 with Vibrolux, and at the Curtain Club the next night, as part of The Local Show on KEGL-FM (97.1)...
Speaking of The Eagle, the station is sponsoring Indecent Exposure, a "rock and roll fashion show," on August 19 at the Gypsy Tea Room featuring music by Jibe. The event -- billed as "where rock and fashion collide," and we imagine it's a fairly grisly wreck -- will introduce the station's new line of Eagle Gear: bowling shirts, hockey jerseys, baby-doll T-shirts, and more, all plastered with The Eagle's logo. Now you can recognize the station's listeners by more than just their feathery mullets and mustaches. Or maybe that's just morning-show jock Russ Martin...

As Brave Combo continues to celebrate its 20th anniversary, the band is preparing to release two new records in the coming months. First up is Polkasonic!, due in early September on Cleveland International Records. Toward the end of the year, Rounder Records will issue the tentatively titled Denton, TX. In the meantime, Carl Finch and company will proceed with their series of reunion gigs, featuring as many ex-members of the group as they can dig up. The next such show is scheduled on Labor Day weekend in the tiny Czech community of West, located about an hour south of Dallas, as part of the city's annual Westfest. And no, we're not just mentioning Westfest because a contingent from the festival brought an assortment of kolaches to the office last week. OK, maybe just a little bit...
Former Speedealer and Billyclub frontman Dave Woodard has turned up in Swingin' Dicks, which made room for Woodard by firing singer Dan Barron. The new lineup of the punk outfit, which also features recently obtained lead guitarist Mike Todd, is set to begin a West Coast tour in a matter of days. The Swingin' Dicks plan to record a new album upon their return, before heading out on the road again, this time with The Candysnatchers...
Another fine local record on the way is the latest from Reed Easterwood and Junky Southern. The album, Secret Power, will hit stores on August 20 and will feature some of Easterwood's solo recordings as well as tracks by his band Junky Southern. Copies will be available at live shows, at a handful of record stores around town, and through Easterwood's Web site (www.lookatwhatwegot.com)...
Arlington's Red Animal War had planned to release a two-track single on Texas Records before its contribution to the fourth installment of Deep Elm Records' Emo Diaries series, An Ocean of Doubt, was released. Unfortunately, the track that ended up on An Ocean of Doubt, "Backbreaker," was one of the songs the band had planned to use on its single. Since Deep Elm picks songs for its compilations based on exclusivity, the development forced Red Animal War to scrap the single. But it may have been for the better; Texas Records will now issue a seven-song EP by the group shortly after An Ocean of Doubt hits stores, featuring newer material. Still, it just proves that the hassles don't get smaller when the labels do...
Just to clarity matters a bit, Quality Park Records will not be distributing Leaning House Records releases. Matt Barnhart's Denton label will only be making Leaning House discs available via mail order from the Quality Park Web site (www.qualityparkrecs.com)...
Finally, a tip of our collective hat goes out to Thor Christensen, Teresa Gubbins, and the rest of the crack Dallas Morning News music staff for sussing out one of the worst-kept secrets in recent months. The staff used fiendishly clever investigative tactics -- in this case, apparently, a single phone call -- to figure out that Frankie Ramada & the Red Carpets, the band booked at almost every Deep Ellum club August 19-26, is actually -- gasp -- The Reverend Horton Heat. Jim Heath and crew intended to perform under a lame pseudonym to try out a slew of new songs, but that plan seems to be dashed since everyone knows exactly who Frankie Ramada is by now. And while we're at it, Horton Heat's manager Scott Weiss deserves a gold star on his chart as well, for managing to keep the group's secret until someone asked him about it. Attaboy, Scott! Weiss is now officially the last person we'd ever want to share a foxhole with.

Using lead for body damage (Pictures Included)
I have gone through pages 1 through 50 reading every single post that interested me and now I have something that I havent seen or maybe passed up during my readings... leading. I know this is an "old school" hot rod tradition/method but had some questions on if I could use leading in my application.
My 87 is being complete torn down and rebuilt and here is an issue I knew I would run into and hate. This bed was wrecked. We bought it in 89 and it looked like it had brand new paint... well it had brand new acryllic enamel from what I can tell. Also about 3 years ago we started noticing the cracking... thats all bondo... no fiberglass or kitty hair which would be a better reinforced material, but bondo. I must say that for 15 year old bondo it did a damn good job. Well now that its majoritly ground out I need to think of ways to fix the damage. There are three ways...
try to pull out the damage and get it straight and use a stronger filler like fiberglass reinforced bondo etc...
replace the entire panel or that chunk of the panel with another bed corner and tac weld it in place
use bondo completely again and have it crack in another 10 years.
My parents used to run a stained glass company so we have spools of lead and soldering irons etc and I was wondering... can I grind it down to pure metal and use lead to fill parts of the dented in metal and then grind it/clean it up and use a filler for the last stages?
Thanks guys... as this does seem like a logical method of using something stronger then pure filler and easiest/cheapest.

Archives and such
If you would get into the archives and knowledge base find the old posts from Randy Ferguson and go to www.metalmeet.com you will find a whole bunch of stuff on metal finishing..
From what I can see in the picture that can be pulled out and finished to the point that you would only need a small amount of fill to make it right..learning the lead is good as well since you have it on hand..
Requires tuning up your skills with the shrinking wheel..slap hammers and dollies..makes for a much better job..And once you have it figured out the tools needed will be around for a long time..

Trout Week: Ensemble ACJW
Our Catch of the Day: Get a Free Schubert Download
What: Ensemble ACJW Live
When: Tuesday, April 5 at 7 pm
Where: The Greene Space at WQXR; Webcast at WQXR.org
Ensemble ACJW had a genesis quite unlike any other chamber group around. A collective of about 20 hand-selected graduates of major conservatories, the members receive mentorship and professional development while working as music teachers in New York City Public Schools. The two-year fellowship is a partnership among the Juilliard School, Carnegie Hall and the Weill Music Institute in association with the public school system. The ensemble varies in size and instrumentation, depending on the repertoire.
Since its launch in 2007, Ensemble ACJW has played in small clubs and schools as well as New York's prominent venues. "The ability to really jump between [classical and contemporary] is something that's unique to our ensemble," violinist Joanna Frankel, a former member, is quoted as saying on the group's web site. Frankel will perform Ravel's Sonata for Violin and Cello as part of the Greene Space concert.
Indeed, a quick review of the Ensemble's most recent performances points to an irreverent balance that has frequently kept listeners on their toes. At a recent gig at Le Poisson Rouge, a small downtown club in New York, members of the ensemble delivered works by Mozart, Jonathan Dawe, Gyorgy Kurtag and Charles Ives (The Unanswered Question and the Piano Trio). Another recent program mixed Rameau, Ligeti and Strauss.
During a trip to Abu Dhabi in March, the Ensemble teamed up with Emirati opera singer Sara Al Qaiwani at the debut of the Zaha Hadid Pavilion for a program of Schubert's Shepherd on the Rock, Mozart's Kegelstatt Trio, Ravel's Sonata for Violin and Cello and Schumann's Piano Quartet in E-flat Major. The Emirates News Agency WAM called the night "a dazzling blend of Western and traditional Emirati culture."
Also on the bill in The Greene Space is composer David Bruce's Steampunk, a brand-new work commissioned by Carnegie Hall for the group. Bruce recently told NPR's Jeff Lundun how the piece was inspired by the quirky science-fiction genre. "Steampunk is a kind of an alternative reality of Victorian sci-fi, if you like," Bruce said. "So people often are kind of dressed in Victorian garb, but have these futuristic things, but there's no electricity there. It's all kind of steam-powered. The music I love is classical and folk music. Both don't usually involve electricity. It's usually just the sound of, you know, people scraping bows or puffing on their instruments."
Catch of the Day
Free Bonus Concert: Today at 12 noon in The Greene Space: The Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center performs a lunchtime program of Brahms's Piano Quartet in G minor. More details and a free download of Schubert's Piano Trio:

The marketing classic is back in the newly updated 5th edition. More than 350,000 copies sold in 25 languages from Arabic to Vietnamese.
"David is informative, entertaining and inspiring! No one knows more about new ways to reach buyers. The groundbreaking strategies in this book reinvent the way entrepreneurs engage the marketplace and grow business."
— Tony Robbins
"This excellent look at the basics of new-millennial marketing should find use in the hands of any serious PR professional making the transition."
— Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"For practical P.R. in the age of Twitter, see… The New Rules of Marketing and PR.
— The New York Times
"When I read The New Rules for the first time, it was a 'eureka' moment for me at HubSpot. David nailed the fundamental shifts going on in the buyer-seller relationship and wrote the classic text to help marketers take advantage of them."
— Brian Halligan, CEO, HubSpot, and coauthor of Inbound Marketing
The 5th Edition of The New Rules of Marketing & PR from David Meerman Scott on Vimeo.
The one-of-a-kind guide to the future of marketing is back with the very latest digital trends in marketing and PR. Learn new tools and techniques to communicate with buyers directly, raise online visibility, and increase sales.
For professionals, entrepreneurs, business owners, and professors alike, this pioneering guide offers actionable strategies that can be implemented immediately.
The first edition of The New Rules of Marketing & PR was published in 2007 and was six months on the BusinessWeek bestseller list and since then the book sold more than 350,000 copies in English in the various editions and is now available in over 25 languages from Arabic to Vietnamese. Hundreds of colleges and universities around the world use it as a text in class and many companies require all marketing and PR staff to read a copy.
The new 5th edition includes 20 fresh new examples of success. I've also updated many of the existing case studies that appear throughout the book. I've added sections on some of the important new services that have emerged since the previous edition including Periscope, Meerkat, and Snapchat.
But the biggest change is a new chapter titled "Growing Your Business: How Marketing and PR Drive Sales". This new chapter is critically important in today's environment where marketing and sales must be aligned. Marketing generates attention from the many people who make up a buyer persona. Sales content (and salespeople), on the other hand, communicates with one potential customer at a time, putting the buying process into context. But both are content driven and they must work together. This content of this chapter is the biggest change in the past several years.
The New Rules of Marketing & PR once again brings you all the hottest insider tips so you can confidently market any product, service, or idea—for a fraction of the cost of traditional marketing and PR programs.

"Citizens of Humanity"
Citizens of Humanity Sid - Topanga
Almost the perfect pair of jeans. I used to buy AGs, they're also amazing, I also have to admit a Barneys fetish, urgh, problem. When they stoped carrying AGs, I was in desperate need for a new cool jean, I normally have one pair, yes I pay full price, but that one pair lasts me months and months and always seems to look great. I've tried Gap jeans, and all sorts of cheaper brands, they just seemed to die unusually fast. Paying top dollar seems to insure longevity. Besides, how can I possibly resist the brand name, I love being a Citizen of Humanity.
Citizen jeans are my favorite -- I like the higher rise that Citizens of Humanity offers.Tags: fashion, Clothes, jeans, denim, style, apparel, premium denim, citizens of humanity jeans, high rise jeansAdded 9 Years Ago from ShopBop

Also Zack Arnold, editor for USA Network's Burn Notice will join us to discuss his "interesting" career path as well as his work on this hit TV show.

Plus recent High School graduates Jory Federighi and Brian Legoo, who just moved to LA to begin their careers, will show us some of their work.
Plus another round of Stump The Gurus, Show and Tells and of course World Famous Raffle.
Join us Wednesday, Febuary 23, 2011 for the next lafcpug meet. We will welcome editor Larry Garb who will show us what it requires to take a theatrical motion picture to syndication TV.
Agenda (subject to change)
6:45- 7:15PM - Stump the Gurus
Join FCS Gurus Andrew Balis, and Gurus to be named later as they will attempt to answer all of your questions and solve all of your problems concerning FCS. If they can't solve your problem or answer your question, then you go home with a problem, but you still got out of the house, so that's not a bad thing.
7:20PM - 7:30PM - Announcements (if time available)
This is a chance to get up and ask for a job, offer job opportunities, announce your film or service, or tell a bad joke. lafcpug will also have a few announcements on its future.
7:30PM - 7:55PM - "Syndication editing - Larry Garb.
From Larry:
"What I would like to present and discuss is what is syndication editing and what is required to get the movie or show to television. The type of work I do is to take theatrical versions of movies and get them ready for Television. I have to edit out all standard and practices issues (S&P) such as language, nudity and product placement. After I have completed the S&P edit, I then may be required to take out additional time to get the movie to the proper run time for the time slot for Television. I do the same for TV shows. I would like to show 2 clips of the movie "The Antwone Fisher story" one clip would be the theatrical version of the movie and the 2nd clip would be an edited version of the movie. I would also like to discuss how I went about editing the clip and what is required to do a syndication edit. The company I work for is Visual Data Media Services and I'm the senior editor."
8:00PM - 8:30PM - Zack Arnold.
Zack will first discuss the unorthodox career path he took to become an editor on Burn Notice on how it can apply to any aspiring editors or assistants. He will then dissect some of the more complicated "box sequences" used in Burn Notice. It will not be a hands-on tutorial showing a step-by-step "how to" process. Rather, he will discuss his creative approach to the complex voice-over heavy sequences with multiple moving split-screens, show some raw footage, and explain how the sequences get from script to the final product.
About Zack Arnold:
Zack Arnold is currently an editor for the show Burn Notice on USA Network. His background also includes editing feature films, web series, theatrical trailers, documentaries, and other various promotional materials. He doesn't believe success in the film industry has anything to do with "Who you know." He grew up in a diary farming community of 291 people in Northern Wisconsin and drove out to Los Angeles knowing exactly zero people in the film industry.Most editors get where they are by slowly climbing the ladder until someone steps in and says "It's your turn now." Zack chose a slightly different path - Craigslist, Facebook, and starting his own company, Fix It In Post.
Zack began his career as an assistant editor for an independent trailer company, but within a few months he realized the way he wanted to become an editor...was to edit. He started taking freelance editing jobs nights and weekends and used them to leverage a position as trailer editor, later working on the theatrical trailers for The Passion of the Christ, Monster, The Machinist, Stander, The Woodsman, and he won a Golden Trailer Award in 2004 for Northfork in the Golden Fleece category - Best Trailer, Worst Movie.
Shortly after, Zack realized if he wanted to edit narrative material, the only way to do so...was to edit narrative material. So he took an additional full time job editing an independent feature, Phat Girlz, which was later purchased by Fox Searchlight for $4.75 million dollars. He then left the trailer industry and started his own post-production company, Fix It In Post. He edited (or was an additional) for several independent features as well as projects for Warner Premiere, Magnolia Pictures, and Walt Disney Pictures. While in between longer projects he continued to edit trailers and marketing materials, also serving as creative director, working on such films as Live Free or Die Hard, Dreamgirls, The Departed, Terminator: Salvation, Up, The Princess and the Frog, Disney's A Christmas Carol, Punisher: War Zone, and The Soloist.
His big break came when he found two independent filmmakers on Craigslist who had an idea for what would later become the most successful dramatic web series to-date, The Bannen Way for Sony Pictures Entertainment. Zack edited the feature film (with co-editor Waldemar Centeno), he cut the webisodes, and he edited the trailer. He won aStreamy Award for Best Editing, and the trailer won two Telly Awards for Best Internet Trailer and Best Editing. Knowing his window of time was limited to leverage his success from The Bannen Way, and knowing the style was similar to one of his favorite tv shows (Burn Notice), Zack Facebook-stalked every member of the crew he could find until they finally gave up and hired him.
Zack is currently raising funds for a documentary he is producing and directing, GO FAR: The Christopher Rush Story . He can be followed on Twitter as @BurnEditor.
8:35PM - 8:55PM - Break
In the lobby will be many FCS Gurus. This is your chance to ask questions. No questions? Then talk to each other. The break is a chance to hang out and meet and greet and get your problems solved and who knows, get a job. You never know who you are going to meet at lafcpug. Snacks and Beer and Wine will be on sale in the lobby. Proceeds go to the Gallery Theater.
9:00PM - 9:40PM - "The Role of the Assistant Editor" - Fabienne Bouville.
Fabienne Bouville returns to lafcpug to discuss the role of the assistant editor on a network TV show, in this case,"Glee."
9:45PM - 9:55PM - Show and Tell - Jory Federighi and Brian Legoo
Recent High School graduates Jory Federighi and Brian Legoo, who just moved to LA to begin their careers, will show us some of their work.
