Last week the Denver Broncos released 2013 Pro Bowl numbers for players on the team whom were placing in the top five of their individual positions. Denver currently employs an astounding fifteen players that are receiving top five votes: Numbers as of December 13th, 2012 (Courtesy DenverBroncos.com). Broncos' quarterback (and NFL MVP candidate) Peyton Manning currently leads the NFL in fan votes for the 2013 Pro Bowl. New England Patriots Tom Brady (another MVP candidate), Houston Texans running back Arian Foster, Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson (the final of the top three MVP candidates) and Green Bay Packers Aaron Rodgers account of the rest of the top five in fan voting. Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green, Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski, Washington Redskins Robert Griffin III, New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees, and Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan are all in the top ten (in that order). Denver has faced six of the players in the top nine in Pro Bowl voting (didn't count Manning, for obvious reasons) and have a record of 2-3 against those teams. While Manning may be a welcome surprise, Von Miller and Champ Bailey will be and have been perennial top vote getters. Ryan Clady and Elvis Dumervil seem to be in the conversation annually as well. Zane Beadles is a surprise, as is Wesley Woodyard who is playing his first season as a full time starter. Incredibly safety David Bruton is in third place as a special teams player (that one is strictly on fans of the Broncos), without any major season defining play. Kick returner/punt returner Trindon Holliday and center Dan Koppen, both players who didn't even start the season as starters on Denver's roster are also in third place. Wide receiver Demaryius Thomas is only in third place amongst AFC wide receivers, despite gaudy numbers and leading the league for portions of the season. Punter Britton Colquitt is also in fourth place for AFC punters despite having the lowest average return in the AFC (4.6 yards). That leaves us with the final three Broncos that are in the top five for their positions fullback Chris Gronkowski, free safety Rahim Moore and kicker Matt Prater could increase their chances of a trip to Honolulu with strong showings this weekend. Fan voting wraps up Monday and accounts for one-third of total votes– player and coach voting account for the other two-thirds. So get in an vote now or forever hold your peace. Of course all of Denver fans efforts could be fruitless if the Broncos make it to the Super Bowl

Research Interests
Interaction of water and organic molecules with surfaces at interfaces
Near ambient and ultra-high vacuum x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy of molecular interactions at metal and semiconductor surfaces.
Recently, we focused on morphology-dependent oxidation on semiconductor surfaces. Interest in passivation of semiconductor nanostructures to improve fast optoelectronics and enhance solar cell efficiency is rapidly growing. We have focused recently on developing a fundamental understanding of the surface interaction between III-V semiconductors and common gaseous molecules such as oxygen, water vapor, and other small compounds. Interfacial chemistry is monitored in real time and under conditions close to ambient using near-ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Oxygen interaction with the GaAs surface was shown to be a dynamic oxidation processes, which involved the formation of gallium oxides (i.e., Ga2O and Ga2O3) with increased O2 pressure and/or temperature, as well as arsenic oxides. The latter mainly followed an increase of temperature. The level of total oxidation was demonstrated to strongly depend on the morphology of the GaAs sample, being distinctly higher in an ensemble of GaAs nanowires compared to a simple planar crystalline surface.
Atmospheric pressure plasma jet induced physics and chemistry
Development of plasma sources as a radiation tool for biological systems.
We have been working on 3D mapping of plasma reactive areas in biological systems such as network of cancer cells or bacteria. A nitrogen atmospheric pressure plasma jet (APPJ) is low-energy radiation, but it contains a plethora of reactive species. Many plasma species that are generated within plasma discharge diffuse across the open boundary of the visible jet into the surrounding air. As these species diffuse, their density decreases and extends the reactive area, which is difficult to quantify by the conventional plasma diagnostic techniques. We have found that oral cancer cells are very susceptible to plasma treatment; they can therefore be used as a marker of APPJ effective areas. Damaged cells were identified, visualized, and quantified using immunofluorescence assay. As a result, the effective area of damage and damage level were determined and plotted as 3D images. The obtained 3D maps showed a decrease in the number of damaged cells with a distance from direct contact of the APPJ with the cells and demonstrate a linear correlation between the increase of plasma effective area and treatment time.
Dissociative electron attachment processes
Mass spectrometry of ion and neutral formation induced by electron attachment to molecules in the gas and condensed phases.
Our recent study confirmed that we can tailor bond dissociation in gas-phase biomolecules by low-energy electrons. Gas-phase dissociative electron attachment (DEA) to N-methylformamide (NMF, HC(=O)NHCH3), measured with a locally designed and constructed, and recently optimized, high vacuum chamber, revealed site-selectivity in the DEA process leading to the formation of dehydrogenated, closed-shell anions. Based on results from theoretical modeling and experimental isotopic studies, we were able to determine the precise reaction pathways. The dominant fragmentations involved the formation of CN¯ and OCN¯, which are produced from electron capture by the π antibonding C=O orbital coupled with dissociation of the N-CH3 bond and formation of a C=N bond. Our studies contribute to the ongoing search for understanding and evaluation of biological effects involving low-energy electrons.

These loudspeakers take everything musicians love about the original B212 loudspeakers and upgrade them with the same bass and treble/mid transducers found in Behringer's wildly popular B212A active version for even better sound and power handling. And with integrated overload protection circuitry, they arrive ready to push it to the limit without putting their high or low frequency drivers in danger.

We arrived on a Saturday night a little early for our reservation, I am always on time, and we're told it would be a few minutes until our table was ready. Literally five minutes later we were being seated on their beautiful terrace - truly one of the nicest terraces in Montreal. The restaurant was functioning at capacity and our waiter was extremely busy, however he found the time to answer any/all questions we had and truly made our dinner extra special.
We began our night by ordering a large pitcher of red sangria, recommended by our waiter, and an order of their french fries fried in duck fat - delicious!! The fries were crispy and very falvourful, the aioli served with the fries was delicious too. They were so good that we had to get another order.
Three of us, myself included, ordered the old fashion cream of tomato soup as an appetizer - best decision ever! The soup was silky, creamy and very flavourful. Served with a few delicous and crispy croutons, this soup alone will make me return to Boris Bistro. My only complaint is that I would have like the delicious chunks of tomato to be a bit smaller, but really I didn't care that much as the taste was more than I could have ever imagined. Truly one of the best cream of tomato soups I have ever had, and a must have for any tomato soup lover.
We were six people at our table and we almost all ordered the same meals. As our waiter recommended, I had the salmon and tuna tartar as my main, so did my best friend. The salmon tartar was absolutely phenomenal. Creamy with a touch of dill and a deliciously spicy after taste. I would definitely recommend this dish to any tartar lover. The red tuna tartar was also delicious, yet even though I normally enjoy tuna tartar much more than salmon, this night the salmon definitely out shone the tuna. The tuna tartar had sunflower seeds, cilantro and a bunch of other delicious flavours.
A couple of friends ordered the beef tenderloin and soya reduction served with mashed sweet potatoes and lightly sautéed fresh spinach. The beef was cooked to a perfect medium, tender and absolutely perfect, and the soya reduction was the perfect compliment. The sweet potato puree was creamy and very tasty, but the spinach was "magnifique." The lightly sautéed garlic flavour the spinach had was just perfect, it did not take away from the rest of the dish nor over power any other flavours present - simple yet delicious.
The last dish ordered by my fellow diners was the seared red tuna served Boris style. The thick piece of seared red tuna was served rare with asparagus and a rich creamy sauce. To be honest, I was too enthralled with my food that I completely forgot to try this dish, but my friends informed me that they loved the dish and would definitely order it again. The only complaint I heard was the size of the dish, the tuna was a bit on the small side.
As we finished our meals and drank up all the sangria left, a few of us decided on sharing a cheese platter before digging into a chocolaty dessert. Having worked next to a cheese shop for years, and being a complete cheese addict, I have tried almost every type of cheese available in Quebec. I have even been invited to a 7 course cheese tasting dinner by my cheese supplier - best dinner ever! So when I glanced over the cheese options I knew immediately what I wanted - Le Cendrillon. Le Cendrillon is one of my all-time favourtie cheeses, a semi-firm goat cheese with an ash exterior jam packed with flavour. My fellow non-cheese loving diners were not the happiest when the cheese arrived as its pungent smell can be very painful to the nose. I myself believe the stinkier the cheese the better - don't you agree?
As I finished off the cheese plate, a delicious chocolate marquise with a salted caramel sauce was served with a sparkler right in the center - I love sparklers. As I dug into the sweet chocolate ganache and the salted caramel sauce, I was transported into heaven. It was very decadent and oh so delicious.
They offer this desert in two sizes, a small tasting size and a larger more substantial size. Trust me when I say that the small tasting size is more than enough! The dessert is very rich and I thought the few bites was more than enough to satisfy any sweet craving.

/// Some Explaining to Do: Tumblr and Critics Tussle Over Porn Treatment
Some Tumblr users are angry about the company's policies toward porn — or as the popular blogging service delineates it, not-safe-for-work (a.k.a. sexy) and adult (a.k.a. very, very sexy) content. It's a little dicey to parse a fight about who can see and not see what, and where — but the big issue is policies around making NSFW and adult content accessible to people who want to find them via Tumblr search and tags, as well as public search engines. And the underlying question is whether Tumblr's new owner, Yahoo, is exerting influence to whitewash a service where at least a tenth of popular content is not family-friendly. Tumblr says to calm down about the corporate overlord influence, because nothing has changed.

James Murdoch will come under attack from shareholders at BSkyB's annual meeting today after the telecoms watchdog called his "competence" and "attitude" into question.
Mr Murdoch stepped down as BSkyB chairman amid fears that the News International phone-hacking scandal would damage the firm, but he stayed on as non-executive director.
Shareholder group Pensions Investment Research Consultants (Pirc) has urged shareholders to vote against his re-appointment due to the criticisms levelled at Mr Murdoch by communications regulator Ofcom.
Mr Murdoch is not considered to be independent as his father Rupert Murdoch is the ultimate controlling shareholder through News Corporation, the group said.
"Although Ofcom stated that the evidence available to date did not provide a reasonable basis to conclude that James Murdoch deliberately engaged in any wrongdoing, it was severely critical of him," a statement from Pirc said.
Meanwhile, BSkyB is expected to unveil a 2% rise in operating profits to £300 million and a 4% rise in revenues to £1.7 billion in its first quarter as it added 49,000 net customers.
Ofcom hit out at Mr Murdoch's failure to uncover problems at News International earlier during its review of Sky's broadcasting licence in the wake of the hacking allegations.
The regulator determined that BSkyB was "fit and proper" to hold a licence but Mr Murdoch was spared no criticism in its concluding report.
Ofcom said: "We consider that the events set out above raise questions regarding James Murdoch's competence in the handling of these matters and his attitude towards the possibility of wrongdoing in the companies for which he was responsible."
As well as Pirc, investment campaigners FairPensions have called for Mr Murdoch to resign in light of Ofcom's comments.
The charity, which promotes responsible and ethical investment in UK pension funds, has set up a petition calling for Mr Murdoch to step down.
Catherine Howarth, FairPensions chief executive, said: "Non-executive directors of major British companies are responsible for oversight of management on behalf of shareholders, including pension savers.
"Whatever Murdoch's talents as an executive, his failure to ask difficult questions over phone hacking shows he lacks of the requisite skills for this role on BSkyB's board.
"Shareholders and the wider public have a clear interest in his departure."
Ofcom launched its review of Sky after Mr Murdoch and News Corporation, which owns 39% of its shares, were engulfed in the hacking scandal which led to the closure of News Corp's News of the World.
Mr Murdoch had no involvement with News International until the end of 2007, almost a year after the sentencing of News of the World's royal editor Clive Goodman and private investigator Glenn Mulcaire for phone hacking.
But after he took over as chief executive he received an email suggesting that criminal activities were more widespread, although he claimed that he failed to read the correspondence fully.
News Corp defended Mr Murdoch at the time of September's Ofcom report, arguing that the statements relating to his actions as an executive and director were "not at all substantiated by evidence".

Citation: Grings, E.E., Geary, T.W., Short, R.E., MacNeil, M.D. 2007. Beef Heifer Development Within Three Calving Systems. Journal of Animal Science 85:2048-2058. Interpretive Summary: Development of heifers is a critical component of a beef production enterprise. Altering dates of calving and weaning to match cow nutritional requirements with forage quality dynamics impacts calf weight at weaning. This may affect subsequent management needs of heifer calves in anticipation of their entry into the breeding herd. Altering harvested feed inputs into replacement heifer programs can impact cost of raising a heifer from weaning to breeding. Other researchers have suggested that allowing heifers to make rapid rates of gain during the last three months before breeding could decrease feed costs through maintenance of a lighter weight heifer in the early post-weaning period. Our objective was to evaluate the impact of differing nutrient patterns from birth until first breeding on weight gain and evidence of luteal activity before first breeding for heifers born in three different seasons. We concluded that either constant gain or alternate gain management strategies can be used to develop heifers from weaning to breeding. This suggests there are a wide variety of options available for rearing heifers. Heifers from varied calving, pre- and post-weaning management strategies performed similarly in initial reproductive performance and subsequent calf production. Heifers were a minimum of 58% of mature weight at first breeding and our conclusions regarding calving season and post-weaning management programs should not be extended to heifers reaching less than this level of maturity.
Technical Abstract: A 3-yr study was conducted to evaluate impacts of calving system, weaning age, and post-weaning management on growth and reproduction in beef heifers. Heifer calves (n=676) born in late winter (LW; avg birth date = Feb 7 ± 9 d) or early spring (ES; avg birth date Apr 3 ± 10 d) were weaned at 190- or 240-d of age and heifers born in late spring (LS; avg birth date May 29 ± 10 d) were weaned at 140- or 190-d of age. Heifers were managed to be first exposed for breeding at approximately 14-mo of age. After weaning calves were placed in drylots or on pasture. Heifers in drylot were fed a corn silage and hay-based diet (CSH). Heifers on forage treatments (FOR) were placed on pasture but were fed grass hay and/or a supplement depending on forage conditions. Three months before their respective breeding seasons, heifers on forage were moved to drylot and fed a corn silage and barley-based diet (LW or ES) or moved to high quality spring pasture (LS). Data were analyzed using mixed model procedures with calving system, weaning age, and post-weaning management options creating 12 treatments. Year was considered a random effect. Non-orthogonal contrasts were used to make logical treatment comparisons. Average daily gain was 0.36 ± 0.05 kg/d less (P < 0.01) for FOR heifers during the first post-weaning phase, whereas these heifers gained 0.44 ± 0.03 kg/d faster (P < 0.01) than CSH heifers during the last 90-d before breeding. Weights at the beginning of the breeding season did not differ between CSH and FOR heifers, but were affected (P < 0.01) by calving system and weaning age, reflecting some of the differences in initial weights. Pre-breeding weights for heifers weaned at 190-d were 36 ± 6.4 kg heavier for heifers born in LW and ES compared with LS and were 388, 372, and 330 kg for heifers weaned in Oct at 240-, 190-, or 140-d of age. Proportion of heifers exhibiting luteal activity at the beginning of the breeding season was not affected by treatment. In conclusion, heifers from varied calving systems and weaning strategies can be raised to breeding using either constant or variable gain strategies without affecting percentage of heifers cycling at the beginning of the breeding season. These results suggest that producers have multiple options for management of heifer calves from differing calving systems.

I love the Wild Whispers Adventure paper collection... LOVE these arrows for pattern paper. the card is a 5x5".
The Argyle Stencil is so Easter! I cut the mat board 2x2", gesso, distress crayons and stencil... repeat 4 times.
These are so fun and easy to make!

I stamped Chausten onto the new Distress Mixed Media Tag and covered him in Distress Glaze to minimize the inking on him. I did a simple blend of distress inks for the rest of the tag. No... I don't have the Distress Oxide inks yet!
I layered the Doily stencil and lattice rubbing off the ink between stencils with a baby wipe. I cut the "GOT CANDY" with the Pastel Leather Paper pack and Alphanumeric letters. Use the Magnetic Platform to keep everything from shifting. Ink the edges so they pop!
Get the placement of the letters before adhering. I decided a little ephemera needed to be here so some Ranger matte multi medium and black soot distress crayon really pulled it together. I tucked the letters into the Xyron 3" Disposable Sticker Maker, rub and BAM instant sticky letters and not fingers.
OK, I added the Crazy Things bunny ears for fun! I hate to fussy cut so I would get the Crazy Things Framelit if I was you.
I added the teeniest Small Tattered Florals for a pop of colour.
The Medium Bow Punch makes quick work for Chausten's bow tie!
Layering the stencils shows a subtle background effect.
Tied off with a fluffy bow inked with wilted violet distress ink.
Chausten and I had fun. Although he doesn't seem too pleased with his bunny ears. It was fun to create... just for fun for a change. Chausten thinks so too...

Specimen No. 5
The best part about these stamps... no cutting! Stamp and line up the Framelit. Every flower needs a butterfly and the Butterfly Duo w/Texture Fade is exceptional.
The Magrnetic Platform is essential for the Framelits and Thinlits. It helps to use a little washi to hold the famelits in place so it won't shift. Plastic packaging is perfect for the Bell Jar glass portion.
I used the new Mixed Media #8 Distress Tags with the Flourish Texture Fade. Once the tag is embossed I covered the tag with gesso. While that takes a few moments to dry I hauled out the Magenta Nuance Powders.
Blending with the powders is simple. You can also spritz like I did here with the duo butterfly then shake the powder. The colour is intense. I cut 2 flower heads to layer.
When the inking is dry add some Clear Rock Candy Distress Stickles for that shimmery look. I wanted the tag to be subtle next to the brightness of the flower.
Apply distress crayon and blend. Gently wipe off exposing the embossed flourish. Ready the Bell Jar die cut with Scrapbook Adhesive 3D Foam Squares.
Loving the glassy look.
I would have loved the tag on it's own I think.
A little saying with Small Talk from Idea-Ology.
The duo butterfly is a big pop in colour!
Layered and fluttery.
Tied off with a bow.
Time to pull out some inks, powders, dies and stamps. Spring is around the corner and it's time to create some bouquets.

Ronaldo and Real Madrid are pound for pound better than Manchester United. Here's why…
The Champions League is back and Real Madrid take on Manchester United at the Bernabeu on Wednesday. Graham Hunter writes for the Paddy Power Blog on why United are going to find it hard to cope with former hero Cristiano Ronaldo
When Steve McManaman produced the name of Manchester United to face Real Madrid during the Champions League knockout round draw back in December there must have been many United fans who thought the Liverpool legend had done them the first favour of his career.
Not only were Spain's champions languishing in third place in La Liga they immediately went out and lost 3-2 at Málaga to drop 16 points behind league leaders Barcelona.
The mighty Santiago Bernabéu stadium, which Sir Alex Ferguson's team visit on Wednesday night for the third time under the Scot's management, had been brewing its unhappiness
Against Espanyol the match-announcer, for the first time in the 'Special' One's reign, didn't read out the phrase "… and coach, José Mourinho" at the end of the team announcement.
Why? To avoid the booing, jeering and whistling which had been growing week by week.
When Mourinho's name was re-introduced for the next home league game, Real Sociedad, it received easily the most hostile 'bronca' (abuse) of his reign.
Real Madrid were in disarray
Perhaps still more encouragingly for United aficionados, one of the biggest running themes in the never-ending Real Madrid soap opera was Cristiano Ronaldo's 'unhappiness'.
They would have easily been forgiven for thinking: 'what better time to receive an old friend, applaud him for days of wine and roses and then spank his team's backside?"
Ronaldo announced his nose was out of joint and that the club 'knew why' and he was hammered by Leo Messi in the Ballon D'Or voting having expected to win. Then came potentially the best news for United fans.
In short succession Ronaldo suffered a further twist to his troublesome right ankle, strained a leg muscle in the defeat to Granada and, most interestingly of all, had a massive blow up with Mourinho.
It came directly after the vital 2-0 home Copa del Rey win over Valencia in mid-January. Towards the end of the hard-fought victory where the visitors had scorned a hatful of chances to score, Mourinho was visibly unhappy with Ronaldo's decision-making and positioning in the final few minutes. He shouted, he gesticulated, he returned to the dugout with steam emanating from both ears.
In the dressing room it was all off at Ludlow. Mourinho criticised Ronaldo's work ethic, commitment to closing down the game at 2-0 and the fact that he hadn't paid attention to the coach's forcefully yelled instructions.
The player hit back with justified comments about the nerve it took to hammer him when he stepped up to support his beleaguered manager on every possible occasion – on the pitch, in the media and during some notable goal celebrations – when powerful journalists and growing number of fans were attacking him.
But however attractive all these details are to those at United who yearn to return to Wembley, scene of the club's first European Cup in 1968 and a place which now needs some reparation after the most comprehensive defeat of Sir Alex's entire 26-year reign, against Barcelona in 2011, the fact is that all that glitters is not gold.
Against this backdrop of confusion, aggression, doubt and a title weakly defended Ronaldo has been utterly and absolutely sublime. The worse things get, the better he performs.
In the 10 games since the Champions League draw was made in Nyon Ronaldo has scored 13 times, including three hat-tricks.
What is most admirable is that while others have let their form peak and trough like the graph on a lie detector in the manager's office at a horsemeat plant, Ronaldo has always led from the front.
At Granada in a 1-0 defeat his team stunk the house out. But his work ethic and his attitude proved that he's unwilling to accept the vagaries of form or fitness. Even when literally nothing is going for him he's still up for it.
For a player of that talent, wealth and achievement to be in a side so fractured that they barely even got one effort on goal against a team which was nearly relegated last season must have been frustrating beyond words.
But his attitude, play and goal record is extremely reminiscent of that 2007/8 season at United when he won the title, the Champions League, Ballon D'Or and FIFA World Player.
Ronaldo is carrying Madrid
Some months before Ronaldo banged out 42 goals during that amazing season Carlos Queiroz told a friend of mine that United planned to use Ronaldo as a central striker a great deal in the coming 12 months.
Partly because Sir Alex Ferguson and Queiroz thought he could become an effective new weapon, partly to free Wayne Rooney to play on the left but partly because 'Cristiano needs to have the ceiling raised, he needs a challenge because he's so, so talented that, otherwise, he'll get bored or hit a comfort zone'.
It proved to be a dazzling idea. Ronaldo carried an ankle problem all that season, often phoned his friend and former fitness coach Walter Di Salvo to vent his frustration at having to carry an injury and at having to play 'out of position'.
But adversity was his stimulus. The tougher the going, the more he produced.
So it is at the moment. His form is such that he's carrying the team. No question.
His determination, his goals and his naked ambition to win Real Madrid the 'Decima' (their 10th Champions Cup) have converted the Bernabéu faithful, previously a little chilly and underwhelmed by his manner, into an adoring public.
His name is now, finally, chanted, the front cover of Marca proclaims him the new Alfredo Di Stefano, his overall team play is superior to that at United and the goal flow is prodigious.
The three which destroyed Sevilla at the weekend take him beyond the legendary Paco Gento (six European Cup winners's medals) to sixth in Real Madrid's all-time scoring list – after three and a half seasons!
He has 182 goals in 179 competitive matches and now only Hugo Sánchez, Ferenc Puskas, Santillana, Di Stéfano and Raúl are ahead of him – but nobody on that list has scored at a better goal per appearance rate.
'The fact that the Bernabéu is finally singing my name, that the 'feeling' has changed is a dream come true for me', Ronaldo told AS last week.
'The support has taken note that I give body and soul for this club and the amount of affection and appreciation I now get on the street, at the games and from fans in the media touches me. I can really feel that the Bernabéu has taken me as one of 'their own' now.
'It still surprises me that I was viewed and treated differently before because I've not changed. It's just that more people have focussed on how much I give to the team, how determined I am to win the 'Decima' and set aside other, less important things.
'I'm even noticing fewer insults and fewer chants of 'Cristiano we hope you die' at other grounds around the country. I can't please all the people all the time – not even God manages that. It's part of a big change since I told the President that I was unhappy here. I'm enjoying my football, I like playing with these team mates and I swear on my son's life that when I was sad it was never, under any circumstances, to do with money.
'As for what happened with the manager, the things which happen in the dressing room stay there. "It's a personal matter which is now all sorted out – everything's fine'.
As for the utter nonsense people used to trot out about Ronaldo not being a 'big game' player it's worth noting that he's made scoring against Barcelona a personal domain in recent Clásicos, he perpetually puts Atlético Madrid to the sword in derby matches, he hit two goals and an assist while Madrid were knocked out of the Champions League semi-final by Bayern Munich last season and this term he's the competition's leading scorer.
In a variety of interviews Ronaldo has made it clear that he thinks Madrid, pound for pound, are better than United but that they have to 'go out and prove it'.
Fair point.
The loss of a world class keeper like Iker Casillas who has yet to taste defeat in four games against United, is a negative. But Diego López, signed from Sevilla, was once a very firm target for United themselves after playing them twice in the Champions League for Villarreal and not conceding a goal.
Equally, part of Ronaldo's assertion may stem from his manager's record against Sir Alex. Mourinho, with Porto, Chelsea and Inter has gone head to head with the United boss in 13 League, Champions League, Cup or League cup matches winning six, drawing five and losing only twice.
One key element for United, in this evenly balanced tie, is how they attack in Madrid. Any team, literally anyone, who is caught upfield and allows even this rather fractured version of Mourinho's Madrid to break at speed will be punished.
Ronaldo, too, is at his absolute best when careering away upfield in a one v two or two v three battle just like 2007/8 at United.
If England's champions-elect can defend, press and keep possession with calm and intelligence and not be caught on the counter then it'll be over to Ronaldo to produce something special in order for Madrid to take an advantage to Manchester.
On his current form you might be wise not to bet against that happening.
Betting: Real Madrid v Manchester United

Certificate of Conformity Package makes EN 1090 audit easier for steel welders
From July 2014, companies that manufacture structural steel components will be required to have certification. This is preceded by an exhaustive internal process culminating in an audit by an external certification body. For a transitional period until this time, both standards will be operative – the national standard or EN 1090. This means that even now, customers may already expect their suppliers to be EN 1090 compliant. The good news: For all owners of a TransSteel welding system, they no longer need go through the time-consuming process of applying for, and creating, welding procedure specifications (WPS).
The EN 1090 family of standards supersedes the various standards which have hitherto been in force in Europe governing the execution of steel structures. Under EN 1090, companies will only be allowed to bring products into circulation if these have valid CE Marking. Manufacturers of metal structural components are obliged to have themselves certified, i.e. audited to prove that they meet the requirements for obtaining a certification number for their CE Marking. This CE conformity assessment requires five preceding steps:
1. Researching information on the Standard and on the relevant execution classes
2. Giving employees the necessary training in the light of this information
3. Introducing a quality assurance system
4. Drawing up welding procedure specifications (WPS)
5. Being audited by a certification body
Step n° 4 – drawing up the welding procedure specification (WPS) – is a time-consuming and costly task which Fronius has taken on itself for its TransSteel family of welding systems. Metalworking firms can thus save themselves from having to do all the work this would involve.
A welding procedure specification (WPS) must contain information on the weld process, the welding-wire diameter, the filler metal, the type of seam and the thicknesses of metal to be welded. The welding procedure specifications (WPS) for TransSteel apply to steel structures of execution classes (EXC) 1 and 2. The specific MAG (metal active gas) process is based on the 'Steel' characteristic and is valid for the filler metals and consumables that are commonly used in structural-steel fabrication, as stated in the WPS.
Users can simply order a Certificate of Conformity Package along with their new TransSteel welding system, or upgrade to it later as needed. A sticker placed prominently on the welding system then indicates compliance with the EN 1090-2 Code for steel constructions of execution classes (EXC) 1 and 2.

2002 forus 2.0 running issues?
i have a 2002 ford focus with the 2.0 split port engine that was rrepalced with a ford reman engine 20k miles ago. I dont know why it was replaced just know that i have the reciepts and warranty info from the previous owner. More than likely for the dropped valve issue.
NOW! This thing is running rough at idle. It'll sit at idle and the vehicle will like try to cut out slightly and sometimes will just up and die. Its rare but it will do that sometimes. Also thing is getting horrible gas mileage as well. Like 18 mpgs which i don't feel is adequate from what i've read about online. To add to the list of issues or better clarify this. Also at low speed and light throttle the vehicle will kinda surge and pulsate. I've checked the computer for any stored codes but not a single code stored.
I've got new plugs, wires, alternator(oem), front o2 sensor, ran fuel injector cleaner (lucas), cleaned the maf , and cleaned TPS plug.
Still yet its running the same way. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions for me to try?

Parisian maid Célestine's (Moreau) new job at the oddball Montreil family's country estate comes with some unexpected duties, as she finds herself contending with a coterie of foot fetishists, fascists, and, maybe, a murderer. The first of the director's celebrated collaborations with screenwriter Jean-Claude Carrière, Buñuel sets this sardonic upstairs/downstairs satire in the 1930s, and its increasingly jaundiced tone comes to reflect the period's mounting political unrest, with disquieting shades of Nazi horrors to come.

Marvin Williams, the No. 2 pick in the 2005 NBA draft, hasn't been around long enough to know all the proper mannerisms of the NBA.
For instance, when a reporter walks up to him in the locker room after a game, the protocol isn't to stick his hand out in greeting, flash his millionaire grin and introduce himself, but he does it anyway.
Of course, there are signs that Williams is getting what the NBA is about, failing to dress for Tuesday's game against Seattle in the Rocky Mountain Revue because of a supposed strained hamstring - common and convenient ailments among the top players in the summer leagues.
Real injury or not, Williams got back into the action Thursday, when Atlanta blew out the Jazz 90-63. He played 17 minutes, finishing
with six points.
While Williams has been visiting Salt Lake City, former Ute Andrew Bogut was getting his first taste of the NBA in Minnesota's summer league.
Drawing comparisons between their performances is almost irresistible, especially since some scouts believe Williams should have been the No. 1 pick, not Bogut. It will take a bit for it to play out as to who was the better value, but so far, both are having mixed results.
Bogut averaged 13.2 points and 10 rebounds, but also was ejected from a game after tangling with Indiana center John Edwards.
Like Bogut, players have taken their best games to Williams in Salt Lake City, knowing the worse he looks, the better they look.
In one game, he went to the locker room with a split lip, ice on his right knee and a little dish of humility after Dallas' DJ Mbenga blocked one of his shots so forcefully he went crashing to the floor.
"Both of them are going to get their opponents' best shot every night," said University of Utah coach Ray Giacoletti, who watched a few of the Revue games this week. "Both of them have a lot of pride, but they need to play within themselves."
Williams' numbers haven't been as impressive as Bogut's, shooting just 28 percent and averaging 7.8 points and 3.8 rebounds in four games.
"These days are the growing pains for a lot of guys," Atlanta assistant coach Larry Drew said. "They all want to do well, and obviously as the second pick, he has more pressure on him. But he'll relax and be fine. We've seen some things that have really pleased us."
Williams, a 6-foot-9 forward, will probably be the answer to a trivia question some day: Who was the second pick in the 2005 draft who never started in college? Williams played only a year for North Carolina. He never started a game, but was the nation's top sixth man.
Still, there is nothing like a championship season to turn a brief stop into an invaluable experience.
"If I hadn't gone to school for a year, I'd be in a lot of trouble," Williams said. "This is a totally different game, and that year helped me prepare for it."
Known for his laid-back personality at North Carolina, Williams has been knocked by some critics for being soft, but right now, the level-headedness is helping his transition into the NBA, he said.
Even when he gets stuffed, he gets up, brushes himself off and manages a smile, even if it is a weak one.
"I'm learning fast," he said. "Everything is new. I'm going out and playing hard, but I'm having fun too."

drywall stop bead
The kitchen of my 1930 bungalow was built with 3/4" wood shiplap planks on walls and ceilings over the wood frame. In a 1960 renovation, 1/4" drywall was applied over the wood. I am considering removing the ceiling sheetrock which is damaged and exposing the shiplap ceiling for a rustic look. At the top edge of the drywall on the walls, where they meet the ceiling, there will be a 1/4" gap from where I ripped out the ceiling sheetrock. I'd prefer to use some kind of corner bead to create a clean edge to the finish wall and leave the gap as a 1/4" reveal (rather than throwing up some kind of molding). My problem is that this reveal will only be 1/4" deep. All the stop bead/corner bead products I can find have at least 1/2" legs, usually 1-1/4". I am thinking maybe it is possible to "rip" one leg of vinyl corner bead to create the profile I need, but I am hoping there is a better solution.
Thanks for the help!
Don't really know of a good product for what you propose. I guess you could go the route you're thinking. If it were mine, I'd either go with trim or pre-fill with setting compound and flat tape around the ceiling. But you'd loose the reveal....
Thanks for the tips. I will most likely give up the reveal idea and go with the setting compound and flat tape. Would still be interested in hearing anyones thoughts/experiences on ripping vinyl corner bead though.
If you want to try it, it will cut easily enough with a good pair of snips or even some fairly heavy duty scissors. For a couple of bucks for a "test" piece, it's easy enough to find out. I have cut down metal bead before for a custom fit and it WILL work. I guess I just don't see the need in the reveal, but I'm not really a decorator type. My wife says all of my taste is in my mouth....

A roofing ventilation question - Fans and Ridges?
Hi All-
I have a question about attic ventiliation.
Currently I have a cape cod style 1 1/2 story home, with a large very highly peaked roof/attic.
I've been told repeatedly the attic was poorly vented, and temps in there would skyrocket over the hottest summer months. It does have soffits and small roof vents near the peak, but apparently, not enough.
Last year I finally installed a large thermostat controlled attic fan from Menards, as close to the peak as possible. It kicks off by temp and also humidity. It made a big difference in my humble DIY opinion. It is much cooler up there now, relatively.
Now---- this summer my roof started to leak. Because of the high pitch of the roof (dangerous) I've opted to hire out the work completely and not try anything myself. I'm going for reshingling the whole roof.
But- The roofer I've settled on immediately told me he wants to install ridge vents all along the roof peaks when they reshingle. He obviously likes ridge vents and I know they are a going thing these days.
My question is--- are the ridge vents going to completely defeat the attic fan I just installed, and how much? It is quite powerful and I can even tell it pulls a bit of air from the lower floor if I don't open the windows upstairs. I know, its too strong. But I've heard ridge vents and attic fans dont mix.
If the ridge vents will ruin the attic fans usefulness....which I do not want to remove since its new and was expensive......what would be the better venting course? Nothing? More vents elsewhere?
Thanks for advice and opinions......
This is the exact reason I don't like attic fans. Firstly they cost money to purchase and run, and secondly they pull conditioned air out of the house.
You are looking at this in an odd way... The ridge vent is a better method of ventilation, so yes I suppose the ridge vent will defeat the "usefulness" of the attic fan. Ideally you have continuous soffit vents and a continuous ridge vent, which is a setup that does the job adequately and doesn't require money/power to run.
I've been reading posts all over the web and everyone loves to beat up on attic fans....it is a favorite venting topic. But despite all the bad press they keep getting bought, keep getting installed and refuse to die out.
So either the public is collectively nuts (possible).... or theres some truth to the madness (also possible). Mine certainly cools off my attic. I also like opening the windows in the house on a cool evening after a hot day and running the fan, beats the air condition by a long shot and probably healthier too. I think its more effective than say, a ceiling fan which just moves the same hot air around the house.
I just watched this Youtube clip where a contractor talked about many of the old homes that originally came with the fans, and his take was, leave them in. Ridge vents are good if youre starting from scratch, but why throw out an option you already have?
Anyway I can't see paying the roofer to take out a fan I just spent a chunk of change on, and charging me for it to boot. Its really nice to have. And currently, the attic just doesn't get raging hot anymore.
And as far as leaving it in.....I just don't know if paying to have ridge vents put in at this point would be counterproductive, make the effective fan ineffective......turning it truly into a boob purchase and costing more besides. Sounds like it might.
Maybe going for more soffits is the answer? Or gable vents if more ventiliation is really needed? Seems to make sense to go with what you've already got instead of ripping out, patching, working backwards.
? ? ?
A ridge vent, vents the whole roof, no air gets traped in the rafter bays, cost 0 to run.
Having a gable vent, turbin vent or powered roof vent and a ridge vent makes 0 since. The hot moist air needs to be drawn out and exhosted. Have both stye vent will short circut the flow. Instead of drawing make up air through the soffit drawing through the rafter bays and out the roof it just gets it's air from the nearest vent. So none of the moist air gets exhosted.
The fan your talking about you say you saw on You Tube where whole house fans, there mounted to the ceiling not the roof. Yes there great but without proper venting in the attic the air being drawn in has no place to go.

Police Blotter Week of 7-2-12
Standoff ends with tasing
Police say two King County mental health professionals visited a woman's 6300 block, 34th Ave S.W. apartment on June 30 with the intention of committing her for making numerous threats to others. When they arrived the woman armed herself with a knife. They called police and Southwest Precinct officers responded, but the woman continued to make threats to anyone who came near. After a crisis intervention team had no luck calming her down, SWAT responded and eventually breached the apartment and tased (non-lethal shock) the 49-year-old woman so she could be taken into custody and transported to the mental hospital.
Not pleased with the contract
From across the Duwamish, a middle-aged man returned a vehicle to a car rental establishment on the 3700 block of Rainier Ave S on June 26. Unpleased with the contract and amount he needed to pay, the man began yelling. As the female employee tried to calm him, the man became more agitated and started calling her derogatory names. At his boiling point, he picked up the pen he was supposed to use to sign the contract and threw it at the victim, striking her directly between the eyes (she was OK). He stormed out, but called the victim the next day to say, "I want my money back, (expletive)!" The woman calmly explained her business did not owe him any money as his deposit had already been refunded, then called the cops. Police obtained the driver's license number and description of their suspect.
Illegal and picky
Burglars busted into a vacant home on the 3900 block of S.W. 106th St around June 21, but would have found it mostly empty. The victim told police she had moved nearly everything out of the home except for a jewelry box and a full set of silver-plated flatware. The burglars stole the jewelry of unknown worth but interestingly took only five spoons and one salad fork from the utensil set.
Unlit cigarettes
On June 25 a woman living on the 11400 block of Marine Drive S.W. called police to report suspicious behavior and an attempted burglary. For the last four days, she had found unlit cigarettes near the gate to her backyard. On the 24th, she noticed a crumpled pack of Marlboro Menthols and three unlit smokes on the roof of her garage. Someone had also unsuccessfully tried to pry open the garage door opening to the backyard that day. The woman told police she worried someone was either stalking her or waiting to break into the house. Responding officers told her to call 911 with any further suspicious activity.
What can you do?
On June 26 police responded to robbery call at the corner of Delridge Way S.W. and S.W. Dakota St. The victim told police he was riding the Metro home late at night and listening to his iPod. A young male in his twenties walked up and snatched the iPod from his hands and challenged the victim to "Do something." The suspect walked to the back of the bus and sat with his three other friends. The victim watched as they passed his prized possession around and got off at Delridge and Genessee.

When a lobbyist tells our elected officials that they need to put aside a "war chest" of our tax dollars to hire "… smart attorneys who know how to beat the EPA on air quality issues ...," our legislators jump right into action ("Utah lawmakers look to amass anti-environmental war chest," Tribune, Nov. 19). Money talks.
If our elected officials are eager to use our tax dollars to stop any effort to keep polluted our air from getting worse, I wonder who represents the people of Utah? Where is our lobbyist?
