Just thought we should big up http://www.p4tv.com.
I am a little biased, as Ian B and I have commented on a few shows in their catalogue. However, this site is awesome. For £15/year, you get access to kickboxing, Muay Thai, boxing and MMA events, including OMMAC, Fight Ikon, Cage Conflict, etc.
(PS I've not been asked to do this, just thought everyone should know about them!)

Kenny Chesney's New Football Film Debuts This Week
Listen to Kenny Chesney Radio on iHeartRadio
Kenny Chesney's latest efforts as a filmmaker are hitting the small screen. The country star's new football documentary, The Believer, will debut on ESPN's SEC Network Wednesday night at 8:00 p.m. Eastern.
Chesney teamed up with video director Shaun Silva to create the film about the University of South Carolina's head football coach, Steve Spurrier. In college, Spurrier won the Heisman Trophy with the Florida Gators, then went on to a pro career in the NFL. In over 30 years as a coach, Spurrier has brought an ACC championship to Duke as well as multiple SEC titles and a national championship to the University of Florida. He's the most successful football coach ever at South Carolina.
The Believer continues Chesney's relationship with ESPN. He also helped create the high school football documentary The Boys Of Fall, as well as The Color Orange, which told the story of the University of Tennessee's Condredge Holloway. Holloway was the first African-American starting quarterback in the Southeastern Conference.

Reporter Who Brought Down Gen. McChrystal Dead at 33
There will be a lot of these heartsick tributes to Michael Hastings, who died on Tuesday in Los Angeles at the unforgivably young age of 33.
He was one of the great journalists of our generation, possessing spark and insight and righteous indignation. But he was also funny and kind and irreverent. He took his work seriously but never himself.
He was fearless, for better and for worse, and that has become a kind of instant cliché about his character in the wake of his passing, passed along the Twitterverse he helped popularize. Hemingway once said that all writers must possess "built-in, shock-proof bullshit detector" and Michael seemed born with one of those. He hated bullies and lies and puffed up pretense. He was never afraid to call bullshit, even when the target in question was a boss or a general running a war he was covering.
Michael will always be known—at least in journalism circles—for his Rolling Stone"Runaway General" story that ended up leading to the resignation of a commanding general in wartime. At the height of the subsequent shit-storm, Michael was unavailable for comment, embedded with the troops who were his reality check.
Michael took some quiet pride in being a chameleon—this most subversive of cats would wear a coat and tie to coast into the corridors of power because, he explained, you'd be surprised at how few people would think to stop a man wearing a coat and tie. But despite the purposeful work-uniform, there was not an ounce of suck-up in him; he was all about pursuit of the unvarnished and often ugly truth while also believing that you could have some fun along the way. His storytelling style had touches of Hunter and Orwell, but he was an original American amalgam who built upon the best of the past, as all craftsmen do. His exasperated intensity was his hallmark—you always knew you were getting his truth, straight no chaser.
He achieved success in his chosen field at a young age—a war correspondent who returned to tell the tale to awed students at his high school in Vermont. His wrote a list of advice to aspiring journalists, worth reading here, that can stand along with his body of work—the books I Lost My Love in Baghdad; The Operators and Panic 2012—as an enduring memory of his voice and talent.

Federal CIO Council's Committee On Capital Planning and IT Investment Hosts Government/Industry Forum
April 9, 1997
Contact: Bill Bearden
(202) 501-1231
The Federal Chief Information Officer Council's committee on Capital Planning and IT Investment hosted a government and industry technology leaders forum April 2 on harnessing the government's multi-billion-dollar-a-year investment in information technology.
The committee, chaired by General Service Administration's CIO Joe Thompson, brought together more than 90 participants from 25 Federal agencies and 12 private sector organizations to discuss public and private-sector perspectives on capital planning, information investment strategies, and performance measurement.
The importance of information technology and the way it is managed was given prominence this past February with the passing of the Information Technology Reform Act. GSA Acting Administrator David J. Barram told the forum that this new prominence represents "a crossroads and a very unusual convergence, and now is the time to get moving." Barram said that we all must be smart about how we use the taxpayer's capital and the limited dollars we have. "The government is investing $25 billion a year on IT," Barram said, "and that money should be spent on the things that pay us back in results and that drive our business mission. The two keys to doing that are measurement and involvement."
The forum highlighted GSA's experiences in piloting the capital planning process and developing agency-wide technology solutions. Barram emphasized the importance of "measuring results of technology, not just the technology itself."
At GSA, every technology investment is now being scrutinized by a high-level Business Technology Council to determine whether it meets GSA's business objectives, adds to the infrastructure, and gives the agency a competitive advantage in service delivery.
"CIOs have been in the private sector three to five years but in the Federal government only the past year," GSA's CIO Thompson said. "All the legislation is new. Our processes are new. And we're really indebted to industry for helping us understand this process."
Thompson and other speakers emphasized the importance of senior leadership participation in the capital planning process and the role of management issues, not simply technology issues in the success of the government's large systems.
The forum also marked the formal release of two important new publications: OMB's Capital Programming Guide and GSA's Capital Planning Guide, one of the first to be prepared by a Federal CIO office.
In addition to planning events like this forum the Federal CIO Council's Capital Planning and IT investment committee is working with seven agency pilot projects, with private industry and continuing to develop more investment analysis materials. The seven agencies participating in pilots are: GSA, State, Agriculture, HUD, Coast Guard, Energy and EPA.

Suggested name: Kruss, Edmund Andreas Suggested birth info: Born 18 Nov 1887 Adelaide, South Australia, Australia
04 June 1932 — Prescott, Arizona
Prescott Evening Courier, Saturday, June 4, 1932
Edmund Andreas Kryss, well known in Prescott and Whipple, died at one-thirty o'clock this morning on Ward Four from injuries resulting from brilliant service overseas during the World war. He was forty-three years old.
Anticipating that he had not long to live, when he re-entered the hospital early in May, Captain Kryss told the hospital authorities and also one of his closest friends, L. A. Fitzpatrick, manager of the Yavapai club, that he wanted to be buried in the Whipple cemetery.
In all probability there will be joint services early next week of the Prescott Elks Lodge , No. 330, of which he was a member, and of the Ernest A. Love post of the American Legion and the Fort Whipple chapter of the Disabled American Veterans of the World war, with which he was also affiliated with.
His military service extended from the Mexican border when Pancho Villa was giving so much trouble, to France and the Austrian frontier during the World war, in each instance as an aviator. For eight months in the great war he was attached to the air service of Italy as a representative of the United States army and for valorous duty on numerous dangerous but daring bombing raids over the Austrian lines he was made a chevalier of the Order of the Crown of Italy. The decree reads;
"His Majesty , Victor Emmanuel, 111, by the grace of God and the will of the nation King of Italy, Grand Master of the Order of the Crown of Italy, has signed the following decree:
" 'On the recommendations of our minister, secretary of state for foreign affairs , we have appointed and do appoint Edmund Kryss , captain of the American army, chevalier of the Order of the Crown of Italy, with the privilege of wearing the insignia prescribed for such knightly rank.
"'The registrar of the order is charged with the execution of this decree which shall be recorded in the register of the order.
"'Given at Rome, October 2, 1919.'"
The decree is signed "V. Emmanuel," countersigned by Tittoni and vised by P. Boselli. And then follows this inscription: "The registrar of the Order of the Crown of Italy declares that in execution of the foregoing esteemed royal order, the aforesaid Edmund Kryss was inscribed in the roll of chevaliers (foreign) at No. 3554 (second series) and issues this diploma to him in attestation thereof. Rome, December 31, 1920. The registrar of the order, P. Boselli, the director, chairman of division one (signature illegible)."
Captain Kryss also held an "expert aviation" license from the Aero Club of America, sole representation of the Federation Aeronatique Internationale, under date of June 20, 1917, while a sergeant in the New York national guard.
He was born in Adelaide, Australia, November 18, 1888. In 1912 he came to the United States for the purpose of studying business methods and the intention of remaining in this country only two months but he never returned to his native land. Rather, he was naturalised in San Diego.
In October, 1915, he enlisted in the New York national guard, in New York city. His assignment was to the air service of the signal corps and in that capacity he was sent to the Mexican border. Later he was on detached service as an instructor for the regular army in flying at North Island, San Diego. After the war broke out, or in March, 1918, he was commissioned a first lieutenant in the air corps of the regular army, served for a period in France, and then was attached to the Italian army for a period of eight months. Afterward he returned to France and then came directly to Fort Whipple for treatment. When Whipple was changed from an army hospital to a public health service hospital, Captain Kryss was sent to Fitzsimmons hospital just out of Denver. He received his army discharge May 29, 1920.
He then went to Chicago and attempted to work as a machinery salesman but his health would not permit such activities and he entered the Hines hospital in Chicago, thence to Letterman General hospital in San Francisco and, in 1924, back to Whipple for another four years. In 1929 he came downtown to live in the Hassayampa hotel for more than a year and in December 1930 he removed his residence to the Yavapai club, where lived until the first part of last month, when he was forced to enter Whipple for the third time. His condition had then become serious and rapidly went from bad to worse. The last few days he had been unable to receive friends except for a couple or three minutes at a time.
Before his war service he was a truck salesman for the Packard Motor company in New York and Boston. He was married but divorced four years ago. His hobbies were fishing and hunting. A brother of Captain Kryss was killed in France while serving with the Australian army. Two sisters survive, Mrs. A. E. Freer of Walkerville, South Australia, and another whose name is not known here, who lives in Adelaide.
He had numerous friends, by nature he was quiet and unassuming, never complaining about his lot nor boasting of his valiant service to his adopted country.
14 Feb 1918
The Advertiser (Adelaide, SA: 1889-1931) Thursday 14 February 1918
Mr. Edmund A. Kruss, eldest son of Mr. E. A. Kruss, of Carrington-street, Adelaide, is now an airman in America. Mr. Kruss was office secretary of the Sydney Young Men's Christian Association, but about six years ago he was induced by Mr. J. J. Virgo to proceed to America to gain further experience. For a couple of years he engaged in association work in New York but, having developed an interest in mechanics he associated himself later with a private aviation school in Minnesota, Long Island. He made many successful long distance flights between Philadelphia and New York and upon the Federal Government agreeing to give one candidate from each state in the Union a special course in aerobautics at San Diego (Cal), Mr. Kruss was selected as representative of New York State. Since then his record has been one of steady progress. He is senior civilian flying instructor at the San Diego school, the largest army school in the United States, where 25 finished airmen are being turned out every week for service in France. Mr. Kruss has charge of the graduating class, and takes the graduates on the final long-distance flights across country prior to their departure for the front. Mr. Kruss recently in a large battleplane, fitted with a 300 h. p. motor made a highly successful fight of 240 miles across the Rocky Mountains. This aeroplane he uses for training pupils in advanced flying. Mr. Kruss will probably proceed to France in the spring in command of a flying section.
19 Nov 1919 — Fort Whipple, Arizona, USA
(From Tuesdays Daily.)
Change of the name of Arkansas?
NO, by gad!
But Captain Edmund Andreas Kruss that was is now Captain Edmund Andreas Kryss, and by a very simple process.
When the Air Service officer, now stationed at Whipple barracks leaves the service he intends to go into business. Moreover, he intends to make good. He does not aim to carry any more weight than the judges make him carry. That is why he petitioned the Superior Court of Yavapai County, State of Arizona for the right to change the spelling of his name and that of Elinor, his wife.
Listing his reasons in the application, the captain says: "To simplify the pronunciation, and to help me in business relationships. 'Kruss' is German and I want no Teutonism."
The captain was born in Adelaide, South Australia, on November 18, 1888. He was naturalized at San Diego, California on February 19, 1918. "In law and in spirit I am an American," he says. "I am free from ant Teutonic leanings, influences and sentiments."
Judge Sweeney signed and order proclaiming that inasmuch as only the captain and his wife was concerned in this matter, he would authorize the changed spelling for the reasons set out in the petition, making but the one reservation that the change in name would in no way relieve the owner of from any financial or other responsibilities contracted under the old form of the name.

Hickory, Dickory and Doc
(2008 - 2011)
Hickory with his brown and white spots was a pied agouti, Dickory was a Siamese as he had the same markings as a grey Siamese cat, and Doc was a dark grey slate. Hickory, Dickory and Doc were our first real "troublemakers". They figured out early on that if one gerbil held the wheel steady the other two could climb on top of it and chew on the cover of the tank. They had actually managed to make a small hole in the mesh of the top before the staff became smart enough to lower the wheel. Doc became ill and retired in the late summer of 2010, Hickory and Dickory stayed on and retired in March of 2011.

Miley Cyrus hospitalized after severe allergic reaction
Listen to Miley Cyrus on iHeartRadio
Poor Miley Cyrus, this really isn't her month, is it?
The singer was hospitalized tonight after having a severe allergic reaction to antibiotics, the latest incident to happen during her Bangerz tour. Miley was apparently in the Sprint Arena in Kansas City on Tuesday night when she fell ill and was ordered on bed rest immediately, reports TMZ.
Just last week Miley also cancelled a concert in Charlotte, North Carolina, minutes before she was supposed to be onstage because of the flu.
Miley responded to a fan expressing disappointment about the concert tonight, tweeting "trust me. I hate this. & I hate hospitals. & I hate needles. & I hate laying in a bed bored AF. & I hate feeling [like poop]."
Kansas I promise Im as 💔 as you are. I wanted so badly 2 b there 2night. 😿 Not being with yall makes me feel shittier than I already do 😷

The Most Laughable Celebrity Quotes
Celebs say the darndest things!
-Faye Brennan
Most likely inspired by Paris Hilton's recent claim that she thought the cocaine that fell out of her purse was gum, The Stir compiled a list of the most insane statements that have ever come out of celebrities' mouths.
Read Paris Hilton: Gum and Cocaine are Two Very Different Things
As expected, Paris made the list for another genius statement ("What's Wal-Mart, do they sell, like, wall stuff?"), and Britney Spears appears twice for the following gems:
"I get to go overseas places, like Canada."
"I've never really wanted to go to Japan. Simply because I don't like eating fish. And I know that's very popular out there in Africa."
We couldn't make this stuff up even if we tried. For more hilarious celebrity slip-ups from the list, including quotes from Alicia Silverstone, Brooke Shields and Christina Aguilera, check out Newser.com.

Hi there. Its nice to be in here..
Hey Everyone,
I have dabbled in BT before, but never signed up for the forums or anything, I guess it was more of a passing interest. However I have recently found a new sense of enjoyment from security and linux, so I setup BT5 in a VM and started playing with it. There are so many tools and so many ways to use them, I am hoping to learn all I can and continue in my new found passion.
Hi there. Its nice to be in here..
hello to all and have a great day
Hello everyone!
Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm a beginner at BT and I hope to learn from all of you! Thanks

The NHL and Brendan Shanahan have suspended the Rangers' Carl Hagelin for three playoff games for his elbow that injured Ottawa's Daniel Alfredsson in Game 2 Saturday night.
Which, in my opinion, is extremely excessive given some of the crap that has gone unpunished, or has been met with couch-cushion-change $2,500 fines both during the season and in these playoffs. Indeed, there is no comparison in the intent between Hagelin's elbow — for which I believe he should be suspended, maybe one game — and Shea Weber grabbing Henrik Zetterberg by the back of the helmet and driving his head into the glass in the Nashville-Detroit series. Weber was not disciplined.
And I think the Chris Phillips elbow on Ryan Callahan in Game 2 was every bit as bad, but Callahan didn't get hurt. As I've said many times, I don't think the severity of the injury should ever, ever, ever factor into the decision.
Here is Shanahan's explanation video.
Here's the official announcement from the NHL:
NEW YORK (April 15, 2012) — New York Rangers forward Carl Hagelin has
been suspended for three games for elbowing Ottawa Senators forward Daniel
Alfredsson during Game 2 of the teams' Eastern Conference Quarterfinal
series in New York on Saturday, April 14, the National Hockey League's
Department of Player Safety announced today.
The incident occurred at 10:32 of the second period. Hagelin was
assessed a major penalty for elbowing. Alfredsson suffered an injury as a
result of the hit.

Here's the announcement of the Matt Carkner suspension, from the NHL:
NEW YORK (April 15, 2012) — Ottawa Senators forward Matt Carkner has
been suspended for one game for continuing to inflict punishment upon an
opponent who was an unwilling combatant in an altercation during Game 2 of
the team's Eastern Conference Quarterfinal series with the New York Rangers
in New York on Saturday, April 14, the National Hockey League's Department
of Player Safety announced today.
Carkner instigated an altercation with New York forward Brian Boyle,
who did not respond. After knocking Boyle to the ice with two punches,
Carkner continued to throw punches at his opponent, who was an unwilling
combatant. Carkner's actions classified him as an "aggressor" under NHL
The incident occurred at 2:15 of the first period. Carkner was
assessed a minor penalty for instigating, a major penalty for fighting and
a game misconduct.
For a full explanation of the decision, complete with video, please
click on the following link:
Statement from the NYR:
New York, April 15, 2012- The New York Rangers accept the NHL's three-game suspension of Carl Hagelin and will not pursue an appeal. However, we are thoroughly perplexed in the ruling's inconsistency with other supplementary discipline decisions that have been made throughout this season and during the playoffs. We will have no further comment on this decision.

Original Message
Good afternoon, evening wherever you are in the country.
I am trembling right now, and writing this with great fear in my eyes.
I am an abductee, i have been all my life.
I do not consider myself to be the chosen one or special or anything like that, millions of people around the world are abducted both consciously and subconsicously, some of you may be abductees and may not even know of it.
In recent years my abductions went from blurry memory, to out of body experiences, to real physical contact, being led by several greys onto a large craft which had different species of non human intelligence on it.
Recently it has been ruining my life, i am 73 years old, and want to live out the remainder of my life without this stress as it has all but taken most of my life, and made it hard to live like a regular woman.
My friend suggested setting up cctv camera footage in the house which i did, but the ets would simply cause so much distortion that nothing would show up.
Eventually i decided to get myself a shotgun, and wait for the next abduction.
About an hour ago, they came for me, four of them
The smallest one (about 5 foot) was at the front and the closest to me.
I pulled out my shotgun, i screamed `dont come nearer ill fire`, but it carried on coming towards me, i suddenly felt myself start to fall into the usual trance, hypnotic like state which you are in when they want to control you, and i could hear in my head it telling me to put me down, if i had given it a fraction of a second more, i would have completly been under its control.
Anyway, as soon as i felt the trance like state start to come on, i didnt give it more than a second thought, i still, whilst i had the energy in my fingers, pulled the trigger, and blasted the grey in the face. It fell down, and stood up again, and looked at me with a sad look in its face, i panicked and shot it again, this time it didnt get up!
I looked around me, and excpected the other four murder me, literally murder me.. but they were gone, and so was the craft.
I put the gun down, and sat in the garden for an hour, and they didnt come back.
I buried the grey in my garden underneath the oak tree, and i am scared for my life what to do now.
I took about 2 minutes cellphone footage of it too, which is far too graphic i am afraid to upload here.
I didnt mean to kill it, but these entities are ruining my life. I also do not understand why the others would dissapear surely they werent all scared of me.
It doesnt help that i am selling up my house in a few months as i will be moving into the countryside, how is it going to look if they find a body under the oak tree!!
Please can anyone who is an abductee help, and advise me what to do.

Question: Can you tell me about this giant tooth I found that looks like a shark tooth? Is it a fossil? It looks pretty new but is huge and I can't imagine what shark it would have come from!
Answer: This huge tooth is indeed a fossil! It comes from an extinct shark called Carcharocles megalodon, which lived approximately 20 to 3 million years ago during the Miocene and Pliocene epochs. The word megalodon comes from Ancient Greek words meaning 'big' and 'tooth' and the shark is known by various names, including the Giant 'Mega-tooth' Shark, Giant-toothed Shark, the Giant White Shark and the Fossil Great White Shark.
Megalodon was distributed throughout the oceans of the world, with fossil remains found from Belgium to California; from Morocco to Peru. They are also found at a number of sites in Australia, including the Melbourne suburb of Beaumaris. Only the teeth, vertebrae and fin bones of the Megalodon have been found because shark skeletons are mainly made of cartilage, which decomposes too quickly for it to become fossilised.
Nevertheless, we still can find out lots of information about these ancient sharks from these fossil remains. We can compare them to modern sharks and infer information from similarities of their skeletal material, including their bone structure, development, hunting and eating habits.
The Megalodon probably looked similar to the modern Great White Shark (White Pointer) but was much bigger. Its fossils indicate that it could have measured up to 15m in length and weighed up to 50 tonnes (50,000kg). The teeth of this giant can be up to 18cm long. Reconstructions have been made of their jaws based on the shape of the teeth and suggest that the gape was up to 2m, enough for a human to stand up in its mouth! The size, shape and serrated edges of Megalodon teeth are similar to the Great White and it probably ate whales, seals, turtles and large fish. With its enormous size Megalodon would have needed a large amount of food, perhaps up to 1100kg of meat every day.
The Carcharocles megalodon used to be known as Carcharodon megalodon. Scientists had for many years thought the modern great white (Carcharadon carcharias) was an ancestor of the Megalodon and, therefore, were classed in same genus (Carcharodon). But recent work by palaeontologists has now turned this idea around, suggesting that the Megalodon and Great White are descended from different lines.
Why did these giants die out? The increasingly cold climate in the late Pliocene (which heralded the beginning of the great Ice Age in the Pleistocene) almost certainly was responsible for the extinction of these creatures. There are many factors that may have affected them but it is possible that they may not have been very well adapted to the cooling sea temperatures, or that their prey moves to waters too cold for them to follow to. Another more speculative idea is that Megalodon was out-competed by Killer Whales, which seem to have evolved towards the end of Megalodon's reign.
Rumours still abound among fisherman about giant sharks bigger than normal Great Whites. This has led to stories that these creatures may still be living in the deep sea somewhere. But scientists have not found any Megalodon teeth in recent marine deposits and the rumours are without basis. Like many of the giant animals that roamed the earth in the era, these marine creatures of the Miocene and Pliocene can only be seen in paintings and re-creations.
It's not really clear why the Carcarocles megalodon became extinct. We have listed some of the theories above in the second last paragraph. You can find more detailed information about possible reasons for extinction on the ReefQuest Centre and National Dinosaur Museum websites.
We love receiving comments, but can't always respond.
Some years ago I discovered a worm like creature in a crevice of a limestone rock in the Snowy Mountains NP.
I was surprised at the location (near a g...

The German Ministry of Finance released its official baseline approach for negotiating double taxation agreements (DTAs) on April 18. This baseline reflects the German taxation agreement policy and serves to support German principles when the government is negotiating new or revised DTAs. The document is intended to help the German government achieve its objectives related to the taxation of international transactions, using provisions that are as consistent as possible.
One of many key elements to this baseline approach is that the German government wishes to pursue provisions that facilitate tax dispute resolution. Specifically, as a basis for negotiations, the German government would like to see a binding, compulsory arbitration procedure that is available upon request. Such a binding arbitration procedure may offer treaty partners an effective means for eliminating double taxation and may also provide a more timely process for taxpayers to resolve disputes. Germany's desire to pursue this provision is further evidence of a growing global trend – fuelled by the substantial increase in the number and size of tax audits worldwide and the increasing burden on the traditional mutual agreement procedures within DTAs.

Sweden is exceptionally kid friendly, though apparently not for those carrying balloons. At least not in its southern city of Malmö. A friend spied a menacing anti-jovial not-allowed sign this morning at Malmö's Triangle train station.
According to Sydsvenskan, Sweden's southern regional daily paper, the no-go zone for helium-filled balloons includes Malmö's City Tunnel.
Apparently, the balloons get stuck in the electrical lines and short the system.
– The tunnel is low and balloons cannot rise over the lines, said Bodil Sonesson from the Swedish Transport Adminstration.
What is the world coming to when a child is forbidden from carrying a balloon!

{QUESTION} We have a project where the contractor is constantly complaining we are shorting them on concrete. We have checked yield several times during placements and came up with good results. What should we do next?
{ANSWER} Solving this yield issue has two approaches. The first is internal, where the producer reviews internal quality control processes. The second is external, where the volume of concrete actually placed must be reviewed.
Before we dive into these two areas, we must back up and verify the yield calculations. You indicated that yield was checked several times but don't overlook the possibility of incorrect calculations. It is an easy calculation to perform, but it often can be conducted incorrectly. It may be worthwhile to have another set of eyes review the calculations.
For internal review, the producer must be confident the correct amount of material has been placed in each batch. "Profiting from Quality Concrete" on page 35 discusses the cost implications of improper yielding and speculates on the possible reasons that a mix may not yield correctly.
As that article indicates, it is worthwhile to obtain updated properties on the raw materials used for the mix. Changes in specific gravity and absorption of the materials will affect the yield and adjustments to the mix design should be made. Changes in the aggregate moisture can greatly affect yield if not accounted for in batching. A 2 percent change in moisture content can make a difference of 8 cubic yards over a 500-cubic-yard placement. That small change can add up.
As part of an internal quality review, check the scale and pump calibrations. Scale calibrations are reviewed as part of the NRMCA Plant Certification program, but it also requires the producer to have access to standard weights to periodically check the scale calibrations.
For any liquid products pumped into the batch, it is easy to use a graduated container to catch and measure the volume measured in the automated systems. It is obvious that mismeasured amounts reported as correct on the batch ticket will throw off the yield. Yield calculations usually uncover these issues.
Cautiously review the actual volume of concrete placed. These actions may irritate the purchaser, as you are starting to blame him. If all sides of the concrete element are accessible, measuring the dimensions is easy and a volume of the concrete element can be calculated.
Don't forget to consider the volume of any reinforcing steel or embedments. Often, these don't contribute much to the volume, but these are heavily reinforced structures which can have a very large effect.
For structures where only some sides of the element are available for measurement or structures such as large suspended slabs or slabs-on-grade where thickness may vary, a more elaborate approach may be required. Nondestructive testing can produce relatively accurate dimension very rapidly. Two techniques usually recommended for this work are impact echo or ground penetrating radar (GPR).
Impact echo is a nondestructive testing technique that sends a compression wave through the concrete and measures the time required for that wave to return to the source. The relative speed of the wave is known and the thickness of the concrete can then be calculated. The measurement usually only takes a second or two to provide the thickness. This measures only the thickness at that specific location. Lay out a plan to record thicknesses at various locations and calculate an average thickness based on statistical analysis.
GPR will do a similar measurement. Most radar systems are set up to take continuous measurements on a line. This technique may not be as accurate as the impact echo, although it provides a profile and eliminates some of the random measurements.
Often, the yield is okay but there is a dimensional change that requires more concrete than originally anticipated. For example, a slab 200 feet by 200 feet by 6 inches thick would require 740.7 cubic yards of concrete. Adding ¼ inch to the thickness would require 771.6 cubic yards, a difference of more than 30 yards.
This is a dramatic example; it is unlikely a ¼ inch will be added to the entire slab, but if this is a suspended slab and there is some deflection in the forms, it will affect the concrete volume. If this is a slab-on-grade, some small dips and valleys in the subgrade will affect the required concrete volume.
There has to be a reason for the lack of concrete for the placement. You just have to keep digging until you find it.

Anyways I'm in the market for a new netbook, and I would like one that is compatible with BT 5 R3.
Specifically with packet injection and out of the box compatibility. I would assume something atheros based.
If anyone has any experience or has bought a nice netbook that works with BT5 pretty good, please share.
Not looking to spend alot either, appreciate any feedback, thanks.

However, there also were reports that DiMaggio acted inappropriately around Hannah.
An FBI agent fatally shot DiMaggio during the confrontation.
"She was in close proximity of DiMaggio when he was shot and killed," said Gore.
At 78, Schmidt is looking for redemption and cleansing, and, like DiMaggio, comedy and poignancy achieve a perfect balance.
The deviation is that DiMaggio was the one who did it when he did it.
Before taking Anderson to the backcountry of Idaho, DiMaggio is believed to have killed her brother and mother.
According to Spanswick, Brett as early as last week asked DiMaggio to teach his son how to shoot a rifle.
This time, Hannah was soaking her feet in water and DiMaggio was petting his cat, Princess.
Police have never offered up a motive as to why DiMaggio killed Christina and Ethan Anderson and abducted Hannah.
One of her friends, Marissa Chavez, told the Associated Press that she saw DiMaggio hitting on Anderson.

"If someone asked me today what they should buy for a home automation system, I'd be hard-pressed to recommend anything," says Duncan Prahl. "Technology is moving so quickly that it's tough to justify a major investment in something that might be obsolete in two years."
The problem isn't just the pace of technology, says the senior research manager for IBACOS, a Building America research leader in whole-house design and optimization, but that the players involved are so fragmented. "There's no one company that spans the gamut of home energy use," he says, and therefore no logical integrator or incentive to invest in a comprehensive solution.
That's why Prahl sees utilities filling the void in the not-too-distant future. "The value chain of home energy savings is going to be tapped, and utilities will start driving smarter and more comprehensive home energy management systems," he says. "They're the only ones with a vested interest in lowering consumption at that point."
While the result of that vision will certainly further reduce a homeowner's energy bill by wrangling all energy-using products and systems—from lamps to laptops—under one control and conservation effort, "It will, more importantly, enable utilities to better manage loads and peak load costs," says Prahl, to accommodate increasing energy demand without having to add capacity or boost rates.
To homeowners, he says, the extra savings will be seamless and almost undetectable—the perfect antidote for the modern consumer. "It's my perception that Americans don't want to have to do anything," he says, especially when it comes to actively reducing their energy footprint at home. "They want to set it and forget it."
They're also chiefly concerned with their personal interests, not the whole. "Users find value only in the realm that's of greatest interest to them," he says, such as energy savings, comfort, or health … or even more specific to an end-use, such as lighting controls or thermostats.
As evidence, he points to a recent study in which consumers were told how much energy they were using as incentive to reduce that consumption. The result, however, was a mere 3% decline on average.
By contrast, Prahl believes that an intelligent and comprehensive energy management system could further reduce high-performance heating energy loads alone by up to 7%, and without any perceived difference in performance or comfort.
And there's even more energy to be saved by reducing waste among a combination of lesser-demanding yet proliferating energy-use products, such as electronics and the electrical delivery system itself.
"It's always occurred to me that there's a lot of energy wasted even after you get really good thermal enclosures and address the efficiency of the space and water heating," he says. "What's left is all the little stuff."
Problem is, there's very little that builders can do about that stuff; most of it is bought or brought by the homeowner after closing, including some of the major appliances.
Within a decade or less, however, Prahl expects radio frequency identification (RFID) and Internet Protocol (IP) microchips to bridge the gap as manufacturers insert them into their products as a matter of course. "My guess is that anything you buy from an electronics manufacturer will have an IP-addressable chip that will work with an inter-communications system," he says.
In turn, that as-yet developed system will collect, assess, and manage the energy-use data from those IP-equipped products to automatically regulate their consumption, in large part based on the lifestyle habits of the homeowners. "If no one's using it, the system won't deliver energy to it," says Prahl. "The house will learn how we use it and adjust."
Smatterings of this vision exist already, such as the NEST thermostat and LED lamps with embedded IP chips, among other spot examples. Meanwhile, a pilot project for E3 Greentech's foray into the market, involving 600 new military base housing units managed by a wireless platform, will take the biggest step yet toward a large-scale application of comprehensive building systems management.
The transition won't be easy, but Prahl is convinced it will be well on its way, and perhaps even market-ready, by 2020. "It requires a mindshift toward eliminating energy waste through better control," he says. "It's a huge opportunity for energy savings in high-performance buildings."

Re me: I have been training in Judo for just over a year and am about to sit my green belt grading, so I am not the most experienced yet by any means. I've competed and I got gold in my first comp (kyu grades +100kg) and am looking to compete as much as I can, working my way up to dan grade and beyond, and to a high level of competition if I can.
What I am wondering; can a judoka compete in a full gi BJJ tournament as a novice having only done Judo and not being part of a BJJ club? Or would the player need to be a member and licence holder in a certain federation ie the IBJJF (is that what its called?).
I know judo is no where near as extensive in groundwork as BJJ, but at my club where I train twice a week, we do 3 x 5min full groundfights by way of ne-waza randori every session, and we study transitions and submissions every session too. In my club particularly, my sensei loves ne-waza which is why we do a lot, but in the gradings there is plenty too. In the lower grades, transitions and positions ie hold downs. Then from middle grades upwards there are chokes, strangles and armlocks.
I am thinking of entering the www.gototheground.com round 2 in february for some no-gi fun; but also thought if I could, I would maybe put on my gi and enter a novice BJJ comp just for a roll.
Is that possible? Could I enter a BJJ comp and roll with some whitebelts? Obviously I would be a white belt.
Im sure I would get dominated, but I'm not that bad technically for a middle grade judoka and Im pretty strong. There is an ex-BJJ fighter at the club (he only reached blue belt - now a brown belt in judo) but he is 105kg and though he normally taps me, it takes him the 5 minutes to do so. I've never tapped him but do tap many at the club.
I dont mind losing when its not my sport, I just wondered if its possible as I like competing and rolling. There are Ne-waza comps in judo, but outside of full judo comps, Im not much of a hold down to win fan. I dont mind being on my back in guard and quite like the time to work my way from there.
Please advise if you can.

Two of the many environmentally unfortunate outcomes of industrialization are polluted soils and the large overburden of mining. It is therefore uplifting to learn that scientists at the University of Warwick have initiated a way to address both problems at once, by the simple act of planting flowers.
In a £3 million research effort entitled "Cleaning Land for Wealth," the Warwick Manufacturing group will use common flowering plants such as the Alyssum to purify toxic earth while simultaneously producing nanoparticles of sought-after elements such as platinum and arsenic for industrial use. "The processes we are developing will not only remove poisons such as arsenic and platinum from contaminated land and water courses, we are also confident that we can develop suitable biology and biorefining processes (or biofactories as we are calling them) that can tailor the shapes and sizes of the metallic nanoparticles they will make," said lead University of Warwick researcher Kerry Kirwan in a press release. "This would give manufacturers of catalytic convertors, developers of cancer treatments, and other applicable technologies exactly the right shape, size, and functionality they need without subsequent refinement. We are also expecting to recover other high value materials such as fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals, anti-oxidants, etc. from the crops during the same biorefining process."
Although the CL4W project faces the steep challenge of demonstrating the timely delivery of its target nanoparticles at industrial scale, this effort nevertheless inspires new thinking about alternative ways in which resources may be harvested, and how such methods may be directly linked to environmental remediation efforts.

Billy Hunter, the National Basketball Players Association Executive Director, made $3 million in salary this past year, a 25 percent increase over what he earned while leading the union through a season-shortening lockout that resulted in missed paychecks for the organization's members.
Hunter's salary was disclosed in the association's annual filing with the U.S. Labor Department, which was made available yesterday.
National Football League Players Association Executive Director DeMaurice Smith was paid $1.38 million this past season, though players also awarded him a $1 million bonus after he negotiated a new 10-year labor contract that ended a lockout before games were missed. Michael Weiner, the leader of the Major League Baseball Players' Association, made $1 million.
"If I'm a rank and file member of this union I've got to ask myself Is Billy really worth three times the guy at MLBPA?" Paul Swangard, managing director of the Warsaw Sports Marketing Center at the University of Oregon, said in an e-mail. "With legitimate questions swirling about whether the NBPA has become Hunter Family Inc., Billy should be focused on clearing his name, not padding his paycheck."
The salary disclosure comes as the union is being investigated by the U.S. Attorney's Office in Manhattan. Authorities began the probe in April after union President Derek Fisher asked for independent reviews of the association's finances and business practices.
Erode Support • The raise might erode some player support for Hunter who, unlike his football and hockey counterparts, drew a salary during the work stoppage. The regular season was cut to 66 games from the usual 82.
Hunter's decision to be paid during the lockout surprised Miami Heat forward Shane Battier, who had asked the union leader during one player meeting if he would forgo paychecks during the work stoppage.
"I thought it was a great opportunity to unite and inspire the union," Battier said during an interview in May. "It was a golden opportunity to unite the group, to prove that we were all in this together. Unfortunately, he didn't share those views."
Hockey union • Don Fehr, head of the National Hockey League Players Association, whose members are currently being locked out, told the Canadian Press this month that he wouldn't draw a salary during the labor standoff.
"It's both a measure of solidarity and uniformity of interest," Fehr was quoted as saying. "You want the players to understand you're in the same boat they are. You don't have interests different than they do. We think it's important."
The hockey union is based in Toronto and doesn't have to file disclosures with the U.S. government. Smith, of the football union, also took no salary during the NFL lockout, which was settled before paychecks or games were missed.
The NBA union appointed a six-member special committee that consists of player representatives and executive committee members to oversee an internal inquiry that will include a financial audit.
The special committee retained Theodore V. Wells, Jr. and the New York law firm of Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison to conduct the inquiry. Lisa Green, a spokeswoman for the firm, declined to comment when asked for a completion date for the probe.
Hunter, 69, said in a text message that he wouldn't comment until the inquiry was finished.
Nepotism complaint • Fisher had complained to executive committee members about nepotism at the union, which represents about 450 players. Fisher didn't sign the LM-2, as the annual filing is known. It was signed by Hunter and union treasurer James Jones of the Miami Heat.
Jamie Wior, a spokeswoman for Fisher, didn't respond to an e-mail seeking comment on Hunter's salary. Jones didn't respond to an e-mail or message left on his mobile phone.
Hunter has a daughter and daughter-in-law on staff at the New York-based association. Another daughter is special counsel at a law firm used by the union, and Hunter's son is a principal at a financial planning and investment firm that advises the organization on investments and runs its financial awareness program for players.
Qualified workers • Hunter has said his family members are qualified and, in most cases, underpaid by market standards.
Hunter's daughter, Robyn, the union's director of player benefits, was paid $89,695, the filing shows, about $7,000 more than last year. Megan Inaba, Hunter's daughter-in-law and the director of special events, received $167,100, about $6,000 less.
The law firm Steptoe & Johnson, which employs Hunter's daughter Alexis and which assisted during labor talks, was paid about $1.37 million, according to the filing. Dewey & Leboeuf, the former firm of outside counsel Jeff Kessler, was paid about $1.3 million.
Hunter's son, Todd, is a partner at Prim Capital Corp., a Cleveland-based firm that was paid $595,000, about $18,000 more than last year.
Hunter took over as executive director in 1996. A former National Football League player, he was the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of California from 1977-84.
Retired player Jerome Williams, a former member of the union's executive committee, in a telephone interview said any player surprised by Hunter's salary or raise needs to be more involved in the process.
"You have to educate yourself, to be able to reference whether what he's getting or what he's doing is outside of the norm," Williams said. "You have to say to yourself, 'What are we doing that others aren't?' The players are the ones who vote. Point any fingers back at yourself."

Tornados picked eighth in the 2011 SAC Preseason PollJuly 27, 2011
BC Football returns 15 starters from last year's squad
Rock Hill, S.C. - Brevard College was picked eighth in the annual SAC Football Coaches Preseason Poll, as announced by the South Atlantic Conference office on Wednesday.
The Tornados return 15 starters from last year's team which featured an offense that finished third in the NCAA in rushing, averaging 285.5 yards per game, and a defense which gave up the second-least yards per game in the conference.
Defending South Atlantic Conference champion Wingate has been tabbed by league coaches as the preseason favorite to win the 2011 SAC title.
Wingate, led by 2010 SAC Coach of the Year Joe Reich, received four of the eight first-place votes and had a total of 52 points. The Bulldogs, who advanced to the second round of last season's NCAA Division II playoffs, will look to repeat as SAC champions for the first time in school history.
Just behind Wingate in the preseason poll is perennial league power Carson-Newman, which finished with 49 points. The Eagles will return 18 starters from last season's team that finished second in the SAC.
Lenoir-Rhyne received two first-place votes and finished third in the poll with 42 points. The Bears, 7-4 (4-3) a year ago, return a strong core led by defending Jacobs Blocking Trophy recipient Chandler Reardon.
Also receiving two votes for the poll's top spot was Tusculum, which was tabbed fourth by the coaches. The Pioneers (40 points) will once again feature a prolific passing attack, led by reigning SAC Offensive Player of the Year and All-American candidate Bo Cordell.
Catawba comes in fifth in the preseason poll with 38 points, followed by Newberry (33 points), Mars Hill (26 points) and Brevard (8 points).
The narrow margin separating teams in the preseason coaches' poll is indicative of what promises to be a highly-competitive year in the SAC. The season officially gets underway on Thursday, Sept. 1, with conference play starting Sept. 17.
School Points (1st Place Votes)
1. Wingate 52 (4)
2. Carson-Newman 49
3. Lenoir-Rhyne 42 (2)
4. Tusculum 40 (2)
5. Catawba 38
6. Newberry 33
7. Mars Hill 26
8. Brevard 8

We all love the smart cover for the iPad 3 but we don't love how it leaves the back of the iPad 3 uncovered, fear no more with the SmartShell, a smart cover compatible case for the iPad 3. This case has a gap left specifically for the magnets in the smart cover to attach to.
Made from hard wearing TPU material
The case is made from a hard wearing TPU matieral which will protect the delicate aluminium body of the iPad 3, keeping it looking as good as the day you bought it.
Cutouts for ports and features
The SmartShell case fits like a second skin for the iPad 3, as a result it has cutouts for the various ports and features of the iPad 3 such as the dock connector, speaker and the rear camera.
Protects iPad 3 from accidental damage
The TPU case in conjunction with the smart cover will protect your iPad 3 entirely, as it is made from a hard material, it will protect your iPad 3 from accidental bumps and scrapes easily.
This item does not include the smart cover.
