Four Different Riders Race To Motosport.Com Holeshots At Thunder Valley
Posted by: newsla on Jun 10, 2014 - 04:44 PM
Four Different Riders Race To Motosport.Com Holeshots At Thunder Valley
The depth of the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship, sanctioned by AMA Pro Racing, was on full display at the Toyota Thunder Valley National as four different riders claimed the Motosport.com Holeshot Awards. As a result, the competition at the third round of the championship was the best of the 2014 season thus far, serving as a fitting way to celebrate the 10th annual race at Thunder Valley MX Park.
Through partnerships with series sponsors, the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship will recognize the riders who are able to lay claim to the Oakley Bomb Fastest Lap Program, the MotoSport.com Holeshot Award in each moto, and the Ricky Carmichael Hard Charger Award throughout the 2014 season.
The Oakley Bomb Fastest Lap Program is designed to present a unique challenge for the 2014 season, providing a different twist by recognizing the rider who sets the fastest lap of practice in both the 250 and 450 Classes. Each rider will receive special Oakley Bomb trophy, specially designed by the brand.As the season wears on, the total number of Oakley Bomb awards a rider receives will be tallied into a final season total. The competitor with the most awards at season's end will be presented with an Elite Oakley Time Bomb II Swiss Automatic Watch.
At Thunder Valley, Team Honda Muscle Milk's Trey Canard became the third different rider in as many races to take the Oakley Bomb Award. The Oklahoma native surged late in the final practice session of the day to overthrow Red Bull KTM's Ken Roczen atop the charts with a lap of 2:02.007, edging out Roczen by two tenths of a second. Canard was in the mix at the forefront of each moto and ultimately raced his way to a fourth-place finish overall following 3-4 moto results.
In the 250 Class it was more of the same as Valli Motosports Yamaha's Christophe Pourcel was the fastest rider in practice to claim the Oakley Bomb Award for the third straight week. Pourcel's prowess in laying down a fast lap has become evident and thanks to his years of experience he is always a threat for victory with a lap of 2:04.303. Once the motos began Pourcel made his presence felt and posted 11-3 moto finishes to finish seventh overall.
The Motosport.com Holeshot Award is brand new to Lucas Oil Pro Motocross this season and it awards $500 to the rider who gets the holeshot of each moto - in both the 450 Class and 250 Class - at every round of the 2014 Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship. A total of $2,000 will be up for grabs at each event between the two classes, thanks to Motosport.com.
For the second straight week four different riders claimed the $500 prize in each of the afternoon's four motos at Hangtown. In the 450 Class, Toyota/Yamaha/JGRMX's Josh Grant earned his second Motosport.com Holeshot Award of the season in the opening moto and used his strong start to stay in the lead group throughout the moto, ultimately finishing fifth. In Moto 2 it was Canard to emerged first out of the first turn. The Honda rider paced the field in the early stages and it helped move him into a shot at finishing on the overall podium, ultimately finishing fourth in the moto.
In the 250 Class, Troy Lee Designs/Lucas Oil Honda's Jessy Nelson raced to his first Motosport.com Holeshot Award of the season. The young rider took full advantage of his impressive start and checked out on the field in the early going. Nelson led the majority of the moto and looked to earn the first win of his career. Despite a late incident that forced him to lose control of the top spot, Nelson rebounded to secure a career-best runner-up result. In the final moto GEICO Honda's Zach Bell earned his second holeshot of the season but a late crash in the moto relegated him to a 34th-place finish.
The RC Hard Charger Award is entering its sixth season in 2014. Named after Ricky Carmichael, the most winning motocross rider of all time, the award recognizes the one competitor at each of the 12 rounds of the championship who overtakes the highest number of his fellow racers in any of the four championship motos between the 250 and 450 Classes.The award is a testament to "The Greatest of All Time" or "The GOAT" and his never-give-up attitude over the span of a career that warranted 10 Lucas Oil Pro Motocross titles and 102 wins - two feats that will likely never be duplicated. All recipients of the RC Hard Charger Award are given a custom-designed trophy.
In the first two rounds of the 2014 season, Sweden's Fredrik Noren emerged as arguably the top privateer in the 450 Class and after an impressive come-from-behind effort in the second moto at Thunder Valley he can now add a RC Hard Charger Award to his collection. The NorenMX KTM rider entered Thunder Valley 14th in the championship standings, ahead of the likes of Andrew Short and Jimmy Albertson. Following a solid first moto in which he finished 16th, Noren encountered misfortune on the opening lap of Moto 2 and ultimately crossed the line in 35th position. From there the Swedish rider's resiliency was on display as he fought his way through the field on a rough Thunder Valley track, passing 21 riders en route to a 14th-place effort that helped land him 13th overall.
Round 4 of the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship heads to Mt. Morris, Pennsylvania, for the UPMC Sports Medicine High Point National on Saturday, June 14.

|Back to November Ed Reporter
|Is Your School's Curriculum UN Approved?
Does it seem far out to ask such a question? Would that it were so.
The United States is working with the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) to federalize the curriculum of all public schools in the United States. The new curriculum would be one that conforms to those of other countries as well as to UNESCO.
We do have federal curriculum standards for civics that encompass the teaching of history, geography, social studies, and civics. Indeed, there are federal standards for other disciplines as well. These standards are referred to in Washington (D.C.) newspeak as "guidelines."
The guidelines have resulted in a subsidized textbook ($10 per copy) entitled We the People: The Citizen and the Constitution. If a school district does not use this textbook, they must nonetheless teach to the national tests that reflect the federal guidelines. The Department of Education is warning states that if they do not have enough students passing the federally approved tests, they will lose their federal subsidies.
The guidelines and We the People are so busy teaching multiculturalism and radical environmentalism that they have no time for teaching the 2nd Amendment (our right to keep and bear arms), or the 10th Amendment (which severely limits legitimate activity of the federal government).
As is evident by reading the UNESCO web site on the USA country report page, we are now also reporting on our progress of wiping out local and state control over curriculum to the U.N.! Visit http://www2.unesco.org/wef/countryreports/usa/rapport_2.html to view the report.
Most countries have national curricula. In the United States, however, education is managed at the state and local levels. Thus, the concept of designing and agreeing on a set of learning outcomes across traditional jurisdictional lines is new, and it is both unsettling and undesirable in the minds of many Americans.
The U.N. states that it is aware of the political sensitivity of a nationalized education system. This explains the following website reference to keeping the American voter in the dark about what "us elitists" are pulling off: "Officials of the U.S. Department of Education, as well as presidents Bush and Clinton, have applauded the emergence of [curriculum] standards at the state level and in the various subject areas, but they understand that any suggestion that these were being imposed by Washington would unleash a political backlash."
For the reading pleasure of World Government groupies is this gem from the same page: "Consciousness is thus growing among U.S. educators that . . . [e]ducational outcomes must now meet not only national but international standards."
I wonder which countries might be models for setting the U.N.'s educational standards. Countries that have trained their children to be compliant workers and obedient citizens perhaps? The array of choices boggles the mind: from Cuba to Zimbabwe to Iran to Libya, among many others.
Congressman Ron Paul and the 73 U.S. Representatives who joined him were right when they voted to get the U.N. out of the U.S. and the U.S. out of the U.N. Control of U.S. education by Washington, D.C. is bad enough, but control by the U.N. is surely the road to perdition.
Larry Pratt is Executive Director of Gun Owners of America (GOA) and has held that position since 1975. GOA is a national organization dedicated to promoting our Second Amendment freedom to keep and bear arms. Visit www.gunowners.org.

Ask a Vet and Get Your Veterinary Questions Answered.
Hello and thanks for trusting me to help you and your pet today. I am a veterinarian with over 25 years experience and would be happy work with you.
It will likely lose some of it's efficacy if your dog was bathed that soon after it was applied.
But it is not to say that it will be totally ineffective.
It does work best when the normal oils on the skin are present and they are less prevalent after a bath.
Your best course of action is to repeat the Frontline application sooner than 30 days from now. In most cases, it can safely be repeated in 14 days.
I would double check with your vet however to make sure there is no reason not to re-apply sooner.
Ok thank you. How much efficacy do you think was reduced? Do you think it still would be long enough to treat adult fleas
Excuse me, not treat but work against adult fleas
I had read somewhere that it absorbs two hours after application...so I am hoping it will still be ok
It is really impossible to say how much the efficacy was reduced. Usually what we find with increased bathing is that the effect wears off earlier than the posted 30 days it would normally would
It is absorbed into the oil glands when first applied, but the oils are reduced somewhat after a bath. Regular pet shampoos are thought to do that a little less that medicated shampoos which are usually a little more degreasing.
ok, yes, a regular dog shampoo was used. he's also on a heartworm medication that also works against flea eggs and larvae...so it's mostly the adult fleas i worry about
You should probably be fine. I would double check with your vet about repeating it a little earlier this month.
Ok, thanks I will.
Is there any thing else I can answer for you today?
No, I think I'm good. Essentially the product is still efficacious it just may not work the entire month, correct?

In it was a stone table on which the footman placed two pistols, a foot and half long, with a powder flask and scales.
From her girdle hung on one side a powder flask, an axe, and a bowie knife; on the other, a bullet pouch and a long Indian pipe.
He flung back one hand to his holster for a pistol, while the other reached for the powder flask at his belt.
Captain Wyeth found his powder flask at Fort Union upon his return in the summer of 1833.
I cleaned his gun, filled his powder flask, and ran to do his every bidding.
My gun and powder flask is within, and any moment the powder may explode.
"We don't need it," replied McNabbs, exhibiting a powder flask in a perfect state of preservation.
For powder flask they used a hollow gourd, which was first dried in the sun.
This was his powder flask, which was wrapped in the folds of the cloth round his waist.
But now the guns are all rusty, and the powder flask is empty.

The man who teamed with Michael Douglas to launch Columbia-based production outfit Stonebridge Entertainment died today of cancer in L.A. Peter McAlevey was 58. The Suffern, NY, native was working as a Newsweek entertainment writer when Jeffrey Katzenberg recruited him to the new Disney team. During McAlevey's tenure there, he partnered with Michael Douglas on Stonebridge, where they produced such films as Flatliners (1990), Double Impact (1991), and Radio Flyer (1992). Outside of Stonebridge, McAlevey also produced the romantic comedy Hard Promises (1991), starring Sissy Spacek and future CSI star William Petersen, which bowed at the Toronto International Film Festival. After Stonebridge shuttered in 1994, McAlevey launched Thunderbrid Pictures, which made such pics as Klash (1995) and the boxing remake Body And Soul (2000). Other credits include Shadow Hours (2000) and the System of a Down docu Screamers (2006). The Columbia University grad, who roadied for the New York Dolls during their 1970s heyday, also produced last year's horror pic Kill Her, Not Me. McAlevey is survived by his wife, Melissa Hufjay McAlevey, VP Publicity at Warner Bros Home Entertainment, and their 4-year-old twin daughters.

I met Peter when I very first moved back out to Los Angeles. I was interviewing to be his assistant and d-guy. It was one of the nicest interviews for a job I didn't get. RIP.
Peter was one of the kindest people in the business. I met him when I fell into the PR business and he gave me great insight into foreign markets, financing and having a good time in Cannes! Rest in Peace Peter, you were one of the good guys.
I knew Peter from our Saturday morning basketball games, mostly played at Emerson Middle School in Westwood. He was a great guy, and like me, had no game. He will be missed. Art

Constable's bike broke down twice
Had Delhi police constable Subhash Chand Tomar's motorcycle not been repaired on Sunday morning, it is possible the he may have been alive today.delhi Updated: Dec 26, 2012 01:39 IST
Had Delhi police constable Subhash Chand Tomar's motorcycle not been repaired on Sunday morning, it is possible the he may have been alive today.
Aditya Tomar alias Sonu, the 18-year-old younger son of the now dead constable, said his father's motorcycle suffered a flat tyre on Sunday when he was about to leave for work.
Aditya told IANS: "I got the puncture set right. But as he prepared to leave again, the motorcycle got stalled for a
second time. I had it repaired once again."
After that, the 47-year-old father of three left their home in Meet Nagar in east Delhi for Karawal Nagar police station where he was posted only two months ago.
"Looking back, I realise that the problems with the motorcycle was some kind of an ominous sign," Aditya said.
"If only the motorcycle had not been repaired and my father had not gone to work, he may be alive today."
On Sunday afternoon, Tomar was brutally attacked on a road leading to India Gate as street protests against the gangrape of a young woman now in critical condition, turned violent.
Tomar was reportedly punched and kicked as he fell on the street. He lost consciousness and was rushed to a hospital where he died early Tuesday.
NP Rana, a neighbour of the Tomars, said the man was committed to Delhi Police.

Disable automatic account selection in Outlook 2010
I have mutlipe accounts configured in Outlook 2010. When I create a new message, it automatically selects the sending account based on the folder that I'm currently in instead of using the default configured account.
Is there any way to disable this?
To revert Outlook's account selection behavior for new messages back to how it was in Outlook 2007, where it always used the default account, requires Service Pack 1 for Office 2010 to be installed or otherwise at least Hotfix KB2547227.
NewItemsUseDefaultSendingAccount Registry Key
When you have that installed, you can add the following Registry value;
Value name:
Value type:
If the value is set to
1, new messages will have the default account set as the sending account. If the value is set to
0 or is missing, then the selected sending account matches the mailbox of the current folder that you are in.
Note: This key does not apply to replies and forwards. When you reply or forward a message, Outlook will always automatically select the account that you have received the message with. There is no way to change this other than to change the account manually before sending or to force Outlook to always prompt you for the sending account.

Amid the decorative bunting, a ring ceremony and celebratory first pitches that included Indians perfect game pitcher Lenny Barker, the host Aeros kicked off their defense of the Eastern League Championship Thursday night with a 2-1 loss to Binghamton at a revamped Canal Park.
After 16 of the Aeros players received their championship rings in a pre-game ceremony broadcast on a new state-of-the art scoreboard and each of the team's starters were driven around the warning track in shiny Corvettes before being dropped off at home plate as their names were announced, a pitchers duel ensued.
Aeros starter and designated ace Danny Salazar, who underwent Tommy John right elbow surgery in August of 2010 that limited him to a mere 47 innings over the next two seasons, matched Binghamton starter Rafael Montero for the first four innings.
Salazar sat the BMets down in order in the first inning. After walking leadoff man Rhyne Hughes in the second, he rebounded by striking out the next better and then induced an inning-ending double play to quash the threat. Salazar got a hand by Aeros second baseman Jose Ramirez, who ranged to his left then leapt in the air to nab Daniel Muno's humpback liner, before tossing to first base to double off Hughes and complete the double play.
Salazar, whom the Indians signed in 2006 as a free agent out of the Dominican Republic, also over came a fourth-inning throwing error by third baseman Giovanny Urshela that allowed leadoff man Cesar Centeno to reach safely by sitting down the next three batters he faced, including two by strikeout.
But the B-Mets finally broke through against Salazar in the fifth inning. Despite Salazar getting the ground ball he needed for a bases-loaded double play that would have short-circuited Binghamton's rally, second baseman Ramirez dropped a grounder right at him off the bat of Wilfred Tovar. Ramirez recovered in time to get the easy out at first, but Muno scored from third base to give Binghamton a 1-0 lead.
Salazar's outing was complete after five innings, as he limited the B-Mets to the lone run on two hits, issuing two walks while striking out five. In all, it was a good first career Opening Day start for a player not used to pitching in cool weather and still limited to five innings or 80 pitches.
"It (affected) me a little bit," Salazar admitted, "coming off Tommy John surgery and getting out in the cold. It was tough between innings and it would take me a little while to warm up."
But he was able to shake it off and power through, as well as commanding a pitch he'd he thought he might struggle to throw effectively.
"I'd been having problems with my slider," Salazar said. "But tonight, it was great. All my pitchers were."
But the B-Mets added to their lead quickly against reliever Cole Cook, taking a 2-0 lead in the sixth inning. The second batter that the 6-foot-6 Cook faced - former Aeros shortstop Josh Rodriguez and Binghamton's third baseman – smashed Cook's fastball offering 400 feet to dead center, his solo home run hitting off the batter's eye as he began to round the bases.
In the meantime, Binghamton starter Rafael Montero (the parent club New York Mets fifth-best prospect according to Baseball America) cruised for much of his outing. The right hander, who signed at age 20 out of the Dominican Republic in 2011, sat down 14 consecutive Akron batters after allowing a two-out single to Carlos Moncrief in the first inning. But Aeros center fielder Tyler Holt stopped the streak by lining a single into center field to lead off the sixth.
The hit not only put an end to Montero's dominance, but his fine outing as well as manager Pedro Lopez called for help from the bullpen. Montero's line was even better than Salazar's, as he held the Aeros to one run on two hits in 5 2/3 innings. However, he one-upped his mound mate in not walking a batter and striking out eight.
"Not only was Montero commanding his fastball, but his secondary pitches were very good," new Aeros manager Edwin Rodriguez said. "He was throwing that breaking ball, I think it was a slider, on 3-2 counts for strikes. It doesn't matter where you are pitching, if you can throw that for a strike, chances are you're going to be successful – and he was doing that."
But just like the B-Mets did in the previous inning, the Aeros went right after Binghamton's bullpen as reliever Adam Kolarek took over for Montero. Ramirez, the first batter Kolarek faced, lined a single up the middle for his second hit of the night, this one scoring Holt to cut the visitor's lead to 2-1.
The Aeros attempted to stage a rally in the bottom of the ninth, but after leading off with a single, Ramirez was stranded at second base when designated hitter Chun Chen struck out to end the game.
"Salazar and the rest of the pitchers did a good job," Edwin Rodriguez said. "The pitching was good, the tempo was good and the first-pitch for strike was good, so they were attacking the hitters. It was a lack of offense that (did us in)."

BMW F82 M4 Concept Coupe to be shown at Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance
BMW insider Scott has leaked news that the BMW F82 M4 Concept Coupe will be on display at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance in August. The M4 is the spiritual successor to the M3 coupe and based of the F32 4 series (read our 4 series driving review). BMW is making a early reveal of the F82 M4 as it has an uphill battle with enthusiasts over the name change. The original BMW M3 E30 was a couple and after almost 30 years of production the M3 coupe is no more, not an easy thing to take for a brand steeped in tradition.
We and BMW must move on, and moving on is what BMW is focused on. Gone is the M3 coupe and gone is the naturally aspirated engine. The heart of the M4 is an entirely new engine, not an uprated N54/N55 as previously rumored. The new engine takes technology from BMW's new B code modular engine design and then ///M-ifies it. The inline six has twin turbos and is expected to crank out E92 M3 horsepower numbers, or about 420hp. The real improvement comes on the torque side, where high revving NA engines are typically weak. The out going M3 had 295 lbs-ft, which is less then the 335i. With turbo technology M engineers are able to increase torque and offer it right off idle. Look for 400+ lbs-ft coming in around 1200 RPMs.
Beyond a killer new engine the M4 wil sport the usual M improvements over the standard 4 series. Wider fenders front and rear, huge wheels and tires to fill the big fenders, a splashier interior, improved suspension and an active M differential borrowed from the M5/M6 to put the new found torque down. A focus on light weight should result in a curb weight under the E92 M3, and light weight equals performance around the corners. BMW M has told us the focus has been on driving dynamics and weight, we will see what that translates to in person next month. Bimmerfest will be at Pebble Beach covering the Concours d'Elegance and will be sure to bring you pictures and news on the BMW M4 Concept Coupe. Stay tuned for our complete coverage an initial reactions.
Does the improvements to the M4 make you overlook the name change or are you holding onto the past and cursing BMW for no longer making an M3 Coupe?

I don't care what they call it. If they actually build it as described here it sounds like it will be a fantastic car.
Likely out of my league until I can get it as CPO anyway.

Shazam is one of those apps that when you first see it, it blows your mind. After using it for a while you forget how you were ever able to survive without it. The creators of Shazam have seen record numbers of downloads for their app and because of this they decided to make the app cost something.Shazam Encore is essentially the same thing as its older free version. The free version now only allows for 5 tags a month while the paid version offers unlimited. This makes sense that the company would like to make some money off their app but Encore isn't just a rehashing of old stuff. There are some new features that make it a great source for music information and looking up artists.
The app now also provides ways to share your music experience as well as find ticket information for concerts that may be in the area or for that specific artist. Overall, the app isn't anything new and it felt more like I was paying for something I used to have before the update. It is still a great app that I definitely recommend. Check it out.
What's in this version:
- Speed improvements: we've given our App an extra adrenaline shot so you can identify audio even faster!
- Bug fixes for crashes reported on Android Market.
More Info about this apps, screenshots, feature and etc, go to the market

The Vancouver Police Department has found no wrongdoing on the part of Ridge Meadows RCMP in the fatal shooting of Angus Mitchell last spring.
Mr. Mitchell, 26, was the subject of a public warning and region-wide police manhunt after a double homicide at a Burnaby sushi restaurant on May 27 and a non-fatal shooting on May 29. The victim of the non-fatal shooting was Mr. Mitchell's former landlord.
On May 30, Ridge Meadows RCMP exchanged gunfire with Mr. Mitchell, fatally wounding him.
"A review of the officer-involved shooting was conducted by the Vancouver police at the request of the RCMP and that review is now complete," VPD spokesman Constable Brian Montague told media on Wednesday. "Investigators with the VPD Major Crime Section have concluded that there was no officer that acted in a way that would support charges against any of them."
Constable Montague could not disclose any further details – such as what led up to the shooting, or how many times Mr. Mitchell was shot – citing an upcoming coroner's inquest scheduled for Nov. 5.
While inquests are usually required in police-involved deaths, this inquest will also look into Mr. Mitchell's history and "whether there was anything that could have prevented things from getting to this point in the first place," said Barbara McLintock, spokeswoman for the BC Coroners Service.
RCMP issued an urgent news release on May 30 describing Mr. Mitchell as "armed and extremely dangerous," warning he may be driving around in a green, 1994 Aerostar van, armed with a high-powered rifle with a scope. Police advised anyone who ever had a past conflict with him – including coworkers, employers and landlords – to be "extremely cautious about their personal safety."
Hours later, a caller tipped police off to the van's location, on a rural road in Maple Ridge. Police attended and exchanged gunfire with Mr. Mitchell. No police officers were injured in the shooting.
In following days, authorities revealed Mr. Mitchell had a list of 15 businesses and individuals he intended to target. They included people, a gym, a coffee house and schools in Burnaby and Surrey, according to Sergeant Jennifer Pound, spokeswoman for the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team. A 34-year-old woman, one of the victims in the sushi restaurant shootings, was on that list.
"The 'list' is not a typical list with numbered names within," Sgt. Pound said in a June 2012 statement. "It is more of an individual workup for each individual and each business with home address, maps of individuals' homes and escape routes. We know his plans were methodically thought out and prepared for each target."Report Typo/Error

text: Hi, I use a server default for torque..... set server resources_default.walltime = 24:00:00 This way if they don't specify anything they will default to 24 hours. I took the approach that if the user doesn't specify anything that they should get a minimal amount of queue time. With this I don't have to have a queue to handle unspecified. I'd rather have their job finish fairly quick and realize they didn't specify a time than to have them go for days/weeks before they realized they didn't specify it. I'd hate to have a job run for two weeks and then end up getting killed off because I didn't specify my time. Especially for a job that can't pick up where it left off and has to start from the beginning again. Seems like a waste of resources to me. Not sure if this helps you any. Could you send the output of the rest of the qmgr output?

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Marley is a young dog ready to begin her new life with a family that is just as cool as she is. She is fine cats and respectful children, Marley doesn't really like other dogs "in her face" and prefers to hang around calmer male dogs that don't really pay attention to her. She doesn't like the dog park and having strange dogs jumping all over her and pestering her. She is house trained and crate trained, she currently sleeps in a crate at night and when left alone. Being a young pup, about 8-9months of age she should continue to sleep in a crate when left unattended until she has gotten used to a new life and family routine. She'd be an awesome pup to enroll in obedience classes as well! Marley is a fun, active pup just waiting for her new Forever Family to come and love her. Marley is better suited to a house with a fenced yard however she may be fine in an apartment providing she gets enough daily exercise.
If you are interested in being considered to adopt a pet please submit a 4 Legged Love Adoption Application. An application must be submitted before an appointment can be made to meet/adopt a pet.
Marley - Sheltie mxi, a Toronto/Etobicoke/GTA Sheltie, Shetland Sheepdog puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Sheltie, Shetland Sheepdog for sale in Toronto/Etobicoke/GTA, or seeking a Sheltie, Shetland Sheepdog puppy from a breeder in Toronto/Etobicoke/GTA.

Full Length Test-1
It is possible to construct a device for determining the speed of moving objects using sonar. The device consists of a sound emitter and a detector. The emitter creates a sound of a single frequency. The outgoing sound reflects from a moving target and is Doppler shifted. When the incoming signal arrives at the detector, the incoming signal and outgoing signal are combined, so that the detector actually detects the beat between them. The detector is a square-amplitude detector, which is thus able to pick up the beat (see figures below).
In one experiment with the device, the emitter created an outgoing signal of 80 kHz, which was reflected from a vehicle. The received signal was 70 kHz. The two graphs above were obtained. The top figure shows the output of the detector in terms of power versus time. The bottom figure shows power as a function of frequency (Fourier analyzed function of the top figure above).
For these questions, use 343 m/s for the speed of sound.
What is the beat frequency referred to in this passage?

Call of Duty: Black Ops – Escalation, follow-up to the First Strike DLC map pack, is now available for download on Live Marketplace. Escalation includes four new multiplayer maps and new Zombie mode content which features George Romero and other horror stars in some Hollywood-style undead action. Escalation is going for 1200 MS Points, and is also the cause of a new Grudge Match today between Deron Williams of the New Jersey Nets and Tyreke Evans of the Sacramento Kings against Treyarch members and Black Ops players.
The four maps include Hotel, which takes place on the rooftop of a Cuban luxury hotel and casino; Convey, a close-quarters map set on the site of an ambushed U.S. convoy; Zoo, set in an abandoned Soviet Russian zoo; and Stockpile, which has players battling it out in a remote Russian farm town in an effort to storm and defend hidden WMD facilities. Lastly, Call of the Dead will extend the Zombie experience by including George A. Romero, Robert Englund, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Michael Rooker, and Danny Trejo in a zombie-hunting map set in Siberia. Avenged Sevenfold provide a new track (Not Ready to Die) for the occasion.

I live for days like the one when I received a new album by pianist Louis Lortie and violinist/condcutor Augustin Dumay featuring music by César Franck and Richard Strauss.
Strauss's Violin Sonata is my favourite work for these two instruments. It is operatic in its sweep (written by a 23-year-old composer who was only still dreaming of opera), it offers both pianist and violinist the opportunity to show their sensitive as well as showy sides, and it is built on a complex structure that offers a fresh revelation with each listen.
From the brash, crashing opening notes to the sweet filigree of the second-movement Improvisation, everything Lortie and Dumay do sounds exactly right. It is as if they are thinking and breathing in exact unison.
And this is only the start of the album.
Strauss is also represented by Jascha Heifetz's arrangement of "Auf stillem Waldespfad" from a set of even earlier Strauss tone-poem miniatures for piano. Dumay and Lortie play with such simplicity, yet even this sweet little piece is full of nuance.
The other big sonata on the album is César Franck's, written by the much older man a year before Strauss's. Its an old favourite that, like Strauss's, offers a wealth of changing moods and thematic details to keep the ear and mind entertained.
The disc is fleshed out with Mélancolie, a little trifle, and Lortie and Dumay's own arrangement of Franck's B-minor Prélude, fugue et variation, which he wrote for his new Cavaillé-Coll organ at Ste Clothilde Church in Paris in 1862. It's a great piece of music that sounds particularly lyrical in the hands of these two masters. They wisely chose to leave the fugue entirely in the hands of the pianist.
The album is such a treat from beginning to end. The late-Romantic music may be too rich for some palates, but the elegance Lortie and Dumay bring to their interpretations is as if someone had really been able to invent a low-fat buttercream that tastes good.
The audio quality is also exceptional, finding the balance between close and spacious.
If there is one characteristic that really makes this album particularly special, it is the pacing that these two great artists bring to even the lightest pieces.
You can find all the details of this Onyx release here.

Start California Dreamin' using Original California Car Care Products!
These nifty cleaning tools are the fun and easy way to keep your car looking gorgeous all the time without spending a lot of time! You know the drill; you've washed your car over the weekend, waxed it, detailed it to perfection – and now it's Tuesday and your hard earned clean – is starting to become covered with dust! After all that toil you begin to wonder if there's ever any rest for the weary, albeit, enthusiastic car lover. Well, the simple truth is, there's not. If you want to maintain a beautiful finish or are even just a little picky about how your vehicle looks, you have to put in the effort. That said, there is a little secret that professional detailers have known for years. The kind of secret that makes their job easier. The kind of secret that makes even motoring enthusiasts admire a finish and scratch their heads wondering "how do they keep it looking so awesome?" Psssst... come close and we'll share it with you, and the only request we make of you is that when your friends scratch their heads and ask (and they will notice, we assure you) how do you keep your car looking so great, you tell them you heard it from us.
As we've already established, the problem is dust – because no matter how much you wash, wax, or polish you can't completely eradicate dust. If you drive at all your precious car is exposed to dust. And the smart detailers over at California Car Duster developed the ultimate solution to the little culprit that so vexes us.
The original California Car Duster is a unique and ingenious cleaning powerhouse. It does more in seconds (literally) to expel dust and lint from automotive surfaces, than sometimes hours of detailing can achieve. Now, you may have noticed (we certainly have) that certain products, which claim to remove the dust off of surfaces, seem to really, in fact, just move the dust to another temporary location. And that is where the California Car Duster comes in to save the day, because nothing...nothing works faster and more accurately at absorbing dust... not moving it... removing it!
What makes the California Car Duster work so amazingly well is the special blend of a permanently baked in paraffin treatment, which is fused to the 100% cotton strands of the mop head. This proven technology has a magnetic quality, which attracts and holds dust and particulate, like lint and small dirt particles, extracting them from your automotive surfaces. This greatly reduces the number of washings you need to perform to keep your ride in tiptop appearance. The best part is, well there are so many benefits to the California Car Duster that its hard to pick just one best part, but here goes: one of the best features of the California Car Duster is it's versatility... because it can safely be used on any automotive surface. Windows, windshields, exterior paint... you name it! It removes dust without ever being abrasive. It is completely safe for all finishes (yes, even clear coat) the fibers will never scratch the paint.
California Car Duster is compact, lightweight, easy to use, and comes with its own carrying/storage case! Caring for your duster is easy... simply shake out the duster before and after each use. Should your duster ever become so dirty that it requires an actual cleaning, just wash it in cold water with a mild detergent and let it air dry. One duster will last for countless ages and keep your car looking just washed fresh, the easy way!
Oh, and one note of caution : beware of imitators! It has come to our attention that there are "copycat" dusters being sold. Be assured there is only one original California Car Duster that has been the trade secret to those in the detailing industry for years. The imposters we're told leave a greasy type residue in their wake. You would do better to avoid them. Instead, look for the one with the original wooden handle – the one and only original California Car Duster.
And don't forget to pick up the Original California Dash Duster too. This mini-sized version of the Original Car Duster is super-compact for those tough to reach interior corners. And the original California Jelly Blade and Dry blade for drying your car. This cool contraption really makes towels obsolete. Water wisps away with just one swipe... and not to 'damp' like with a squeegie... the Jelly Blade and Dry blade wipe the surface dry. It's incredible, really. It's so effective that it actually contours to rounded surfaces and dries vehicles in 1/3rd of the time! The patented 'T-bar' edge ensures the California Jelly Blade and Dry blade won't scratch even the most delicate surfaces. These work great for household applications as well... like shower doors, and cleaning windows, and glass doors.
You can get the benefit of all three California Car Duster maintenance tools in our California Combo Kit, or if you prefer, purchase them separately. Whichever you choose, you'll be California dreamin' in no time!

To furnish the phosphoric acid he can buy 1,786 pounds acid phosphate.
Either ground bone or acid phosphate will give the needed phosphoric acid.
"Certainly," and Fred went to his room and soon returned with a glass with about two teaspoonfuls of acid phosphate in it.
acid phosphate and kainite added to the manure may pay handsomely.
Three hundred and fifty pounds of acid phosphate and 50 pounds of muriate of potash per acre is the mixture recommended.
The availability is less immediate than that of acid phosphate, but much greater than that of raw bone.
For such use it needs reënforcing only with acid phosphate, but as a general manure it should have the addition of potash.
In Louisiana large quantities of tankage, cotton-seed meal, and acid phosphate are used to fertilize cane-fields.
The cheapness of acid phosphate, as compared with animal bone, is the decisive factor.

Griggs' family history actually begins in 1920 when Carole's Grandfather, Karl
August Kilander first visited Ten Mile Lake. Work on the Kilander cabin
began in 1924. This part of the history is covered in Fritz Kilander's family history (Carole's brother). Carole's
first visit to Ten Mile was in 1936 as a three year old child. She says she
still remembers how brutally hot that summer was. I first visited Ten Mile in
1967, as Carole's guest. At this point our relationship became serious and we
were married in late 1967. Thereafter, we would make weekend trips to Ten Mile
Lake cabin from
the winter of 1974-5 Fritz and his wife
Bernadette lived in the cabin while their house was built on the adjacent
lot. That winter was exceptionally cold and snowy, and Fritz and Bernadette went
to extremes to make the drafty old cabin warm enough to live in. They moved into
their new house in 1975, and the old cabin became ours. In 1980, Fritz and
Bernadette sold their house and lot to us and moved up the lake to the Boone
Point area, where they now live. From that point on, we knew where we would
retire, and the only question was when. In fact it would be another twenty
years, during which time we kept the house rented out, fortunately to couples
who also loved Ten Mile and took good care of the house. Our children both
treasure their memories of summers and falls at Ten Mile, and now their children
are experiencing the same.
late 1999, I retired from 3M and we moved to Ten Mile. We had given our renters
(the Strandemos) plenty of warning
and they were able to purchase a home near Tianna golf course, which is Guy's
passion. Carole and I became acquainted with many of the local residents and
became a member of Union Church in

Simon Coupe from Preston won his first St Andrews Classic in a final that turned out to be a classic!
In an all-Preston final, Coupe held off a storming comeback from Wayne Ditchfield to win 21-20 at the Burnley club.
Ditchfield had trailed 13-7 at one stage but pulled back to level at 18 each. Coupe took a single on the next end to lead 19-18 only for Ditchfield to play two brilliant bowls in the corner to go 20-19 in front.
And it looked like he might secure the match but Coupe changed his peg and played two bowls inside it to secure the match and the title.
In the semi final Coupe was always in front against T Johnstone leading at one stage 15-8 only for Johnstone to pull back to 18-15 before Coupe secured the game.
The other semi final saw an excellent game with the lead changing hands several times before G Ellis (Manchester) established a slender lead at 17-15 only for Ditchfield to make a six break and take the match 21-17.
The competition attracted bowlers from across the North of England.
St Andrew's thanked sponsors McParland & Partner Financial Management, Burnley Insurance Bureau and Althams Travel Services for their continued support.

Reviews of Movies I Will Never See
Avatar: The Last Airbender
Huh. Everyone says it's terrible. But it looks great! Look at that dirt flying around! Like an enormous dog burying a giant bone! Maybe it's the bones of M. Night Shyamalan's directing career. And water is whooshing up like the very big dog just jumped in the bathtub! Get out of that tub dog now you're covered in suds! I guess I'm thinking about Marmaduke. Is that a movie?
Well I guess it is. I wish Marmaduke was an actual Duke, like a foppishly dressed lord of the manor but doing dog stuff and living in a tiny wooden house in the yard because a wizard tricked him. The Duke of Marma. I bet a wizard tricked Owen Wilson into doing this movie. Alakazam, I got your signature, bitch!
Knight and Day
Hey get on my motorcycle I'm Tom Cruise and shooting and grinning like an idiot with my pearly teeth. HAHAHAHAHA I'm crazy for real. Bullets, I guess too! I kill people but I'm a good guy probably! Zoooom.
Maybe in some alternate dimension this movie is about Felicia Day and her best friend a medieval knight who gets punched in the face and then his visor drops down and he stumbles around in his clanky armor and falls in a soapy tub of water. Once at Dragon*Con I mistook Veronica Belmont for Felicia Day and shall regret it until my last breath upon this earth.
I went up to her and said, "Ummm…pardon me for asking but are you Felicia Day?" and she said "Fuuuck!" and even after that she was really nice about the whole thing and super cool and let me take a picture of her holding a drink.
The Karate Kid
You know what would be crazy? If Will Smith kissed Jackie Chan on the lips at the premier of this movie in front of everybody. Not in a romantic way, but like the way that men kissed each other on the lips in the days of the Old West, in order to secretly trade beef jerky or ammunition or little folded up pieces of paper with messages. And then Jackie Chan would pull the paper out and read it and it would say, "Thanks for putting my kid in this movie." Then Jackie Chan would look down and realize he was sitting in a soapy tub of water on the set of Shanghai Noon with Owen Wilson, and there was still time to kill the wizard.

Tom--
 During your next NC senate poll, do you think it would make sense to provide short biographies of the GOP candidates? Since the candidates have such low name recognition, it seems like giving voters a sense of who they are would modify the results to at least some degree. In particular, Patrick McHenry might plummet among self-described "moderate" voters. Plus, you could add Jim Cain, who's basically guaranteed to be unknown but might poll pretty well, especially in the Triangle.

Tanegashima, Japan (JPL) Feb 28, 2014
The Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) Core Observatory, a joint Earth-observing mission between NASA and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), thundered into space at 10:37 a.m. PST Thursday, Feb. 27 (3:37 a.m. JST Friday, Feb. 28) from Japan.
The four-ton spacecraft launched aboard a Japanese H-IIA rocket from Tanegashima Space Center on Tanegashima Island in southern Japan. The GPM spacecraft separated from the rocket 16 minutes after launch, at an altitude of 247 miles (398 kilometers). The solar arrays deployed 10 minutes after spacecraft separation, to power the spacecraft.
"With this launch, we have taken another giant leap in providing the world with an unprecedented picture of our planet's rain and snow," said NASA Administrator Charles Bolden. "GPM will help us better understand our ever-changing climate, improve forecasts of extreme weather events like floods, and assist decision makers around the world to better manage water resources."
The GPM Core Observatory will take a major step in improving upon the capabilities of the Tropical Rainfall Measurement Mission (TRMM), a joint NASA-JAXA mission launched in 1997 and still in operation.
While TRMM measured precipitation in the tropics, the GPM Core Observatory expands the coverage area from the Arctic Circle to the Antarctic Circle. GPM will also be able to detect light rain and snowfall, a major source of available fresh water in some regions.
To better understand Earth's weather and climate cycles, the GPM Core Observatory will collect information that unifies and improves data from an international constellation of existing and future satellites by mapping global precipitation every three hours.
"It is incredibly exciting to see this spacecraft launch," said GPM Project Manager Art Azarbarzin of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. "This is the moment that the GPM team has been working toward since 2006.
"The GPM Core Observatory is the product of a dedicated team at Goddard, JAXA and others worldwide. Soon, as GPM begins to collect precipitation observations, we'll see these instruments at work providing real-time information for the scientists about the intensification of storms, rainfall in remote areas and so much more."
The GPM Core Observatory was assembled at Goddard and is the largest spacecraft ever built at the center. It carries two instruments to measure rain and snowfall. The GPM Microwave Imager, provided by NASA, will estimate precipitation intensities from heavy to light rain, and snowfall by carefully measuring the minute amounts of energy naturally emitted by precipitation.
The Dual-frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR), developed by JAXA with the National Institute of Information and Communication Technology, Tokyo, will use emitted radar pulses to make detailed measurements of three-dimensional rainfall structure and intensity, allowing scientists to improve estimates of how much water the precipitation holds. Mission operations and data processing will be managed from Goddard.
"We still have a lot to learn about how rain and snow systems behave in the bigger Earth system," said GPM Project Scientist Gail Skofronick-Jackson of Goddard. "With the advanced instruments on the GPM Core Observatory, we will have for the first time frequent unified global observations of all types of precipitation, everything from the rain in your backyard to storms forming over the oceans to the falling snow contributing to water resources."
"We have spent more than a decade developing DPR using Japanese technology, the first radar of its kind in space," said Masahiro Kojima, JAXA GPM/DPR project manager. "I expect GPM to produce important new results for our society by improving weather forecasts and prediction of extreme events such as typhoons and flooding."
A half-dozen scientists from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif., participate on the GPM science team, contributing to the mission's precipitation science, developing step-by-step procedures for calculating precipitation data, and calibrating observatory sensors. JPL's Airborne 2-frequency Precipitation Radar is the airborne simulator for the GPM Core Observatory's DPR and is contributing to GPM ground validation activities.
"The JPL team has a long history of developing precipitation radar systems and processing techniques and assisted in defining the initial GPM mission concept," said GPM science team member Joe Turk of JPL.
"Our team is also helping define the concept and advanced precipitation/cloud radar instrument for GPM's planned follow-on mission. We look forward to the more complete and accurate picture of global precipitation that GPM will enable."
The GPM Core Observatory is the first of NASA's five Earth science missions launching this year. With a fleet of satellites and ambitious airborne and ground-based observation campaigns, NASA monitors Earth's vital signs from land, air and space.
NASA also develops new ways to observe and study Earth's interconnected natural systems with long-term data records and computer analysis tools to better see how our planet is changing.
The agency freely shares this unique knowledge with the global community and works with institutions in the United States and around the world that contribute to understanding and protecting our home planet.

The KHL is making sure another Alexei Cherepanov-like incident doesn't happen again, and with more rigorous medical testing they've found 5 more players with problematic hearts.
This is a great move by the KHL and all other hockey leagues, be it minor, minor pro, or pro, need to get on this movement. The earlier the leagues can detect heart defects, the better off the league, teams, and most importantly, the player themselves, will be. It's very unfortunate that it has taken 3 years, since the Jiri Fischer incident, for hockey officials to start taking this very seriously. Had the leagues started to look into this earlier you have to wonder if a couple lives could've been saved.

Event Details
Welcome to Coyote Spring. This year the Open Space Authority has a new Coyote Ridge adventure for you. We are opening up a brand new route in an undeveloped area. This is your chance to see beautiful bursts of native flowers next to lichen covered rocks on scenic hillsides. Parts of this trail are on an unmaintained historic rocky road. There is a gradual 400ft elevation gain over 1 mile for the hillside portion of this hike. For those who like steepness and want to hike to the top of the ridge, there is an additional 400ft elevation gain over a half mile up to the top of the ridge. The entire hike is a little over 3 miles long. Saturdays will be reserved for hillside hikes only and Sundays will offer the opportunity for both. Hikes begin at 9 am and may take until 2 pm to complete. If you would like to reserve a private weekday hike for your work or social group please contact Teri Rogoway at (408) 224-7476. Hikes will begin March 23 and go until the flowers dry up.
The attendance on this hike is limited by car parking spaces. In order to allow more people on this hike, carpooling is highly encouraged. Feel free to call us if you would like a suggestion for locations to meet.
Note: The meeting location for this hike is next to the entrance at the Kirby Canyon Landfill, not inside the landfill as we have done in the past. Once you are registered, we will send you directions and parking information.

Chiefs 2013-14 NFL Season Odds
KANSAS CITY, MO (The Spread) - Could the Kansas City Chiefs be a sleeper with a new head coach and new quarterback?
According to oddsmakers from online sports book Bovada.lv, the Chiefs are 50/1 long shots to win the 2014 Super Bowl and 25/1 to win the AFC Conference this season. They're also +400 to win the AFC West Division and have an over/under total of 7.5 for number of wins this season.
The Chiefs had an active offseason, first naming Andy Reid head coach and then hiring John Dorsey as general manager. Doug Pederson and Bob Sutton were also hired as the offensive and defensive coordinators, respectively, and then the team acquired quarterback Alex Smith from the 49ers. Dunta Robinson, Donnie Avery and Sean Smith were some of Kansas City's bigger free agent signings, and wideout Dwayne Bowe signed a new five-year deal back in March.
In the draft, the Chiefs selected Central Michigan offensive tackle Eric Fisher with the first overall pick. They also selected Cincinnati tight end Travis Kelce and Arkansas running back Knile Davis in the third round, as well as Alabama linebacker Nico Johnson in the fourth.
The Broncos remain the favorite to win the AFC Conference so they'll be tough to unseat in the AFC West. But the Chiefs are viewed as a sleeper under Reid and if Smith can have a good season, there's no reason to believe that this team can't challenge for at least a wild card spot. The talent is certainly there.
2013-14 Kansas City Chiefs Odds
Super Bowl Odds: 50/1
AFC Conference Odds: 25/1
AFC West Division Odds: +400
Over/Under Win Total: 7.5

Never let it be said that turkey notes are getting untied. They're still silly fun and keep on gobbling.
Some turkey notes are going mod and metro:
Turkey loves to rap
He never does it wrong
He jumps up on the table
And sings a hip hop song.
Turkey is very cool
And very, very smart
He jumped right out
of the grocery cart.
TRADITIONALLY, some rhyme with colors:
Turkey red
Turkey brown
Turkey says
On Thursday I leave town.
Turkey brown
Turkey yellow
I like turkey on my plate
Not with my lemon Jell-O.
In all the years that I cheered turkey notes, I have claimed they were indigenous to Davenport. Dianne Lannen of Davenport begs to differ. "I have been making turkey notes since I was about 9. My mom was born in Berlin, Germany, and she always made turkey notes." (I never knew they had Thanksgiving in Germany.)
Some turkey notes are old standbys, like Leonard Geifman's favorite:
Turkey drumstick,
Turkey wing
I can't believe
You ate the whole darned thing.
"For the third year in a row, Good2Go will put turkey notes with all our deliveries," says Lisa Lewis Garman, owner of the Davenport service that delivers meals from restaurants to Quad-Citizens. "We expect to write 250 turkey notes this year. We're proud to join you in keeping a silly and sweet Davenport tradition alive — my grandma would be very pleased to know it's not been forgotten."
Kathy Nagle, Davenport, says when her husband had his hip replaced, a niece sent him a turkey note:
Turkey mouth,
Turkey lips,
Here's hoping you can
Move your hips.
A few more from this year's basket of turkey notes:
Gimme more turkey,
gimme more pie,
I'm not on a diet,
that's no lie.
Turkey pink,
Turkey white,
Nothing but bones,
by tomorrow night.
Turkey red,
Turkey white,
Turkey says
Eat beef tonight.

Former Victorian premier
Mr Kennett said that decades had been wasted while governments with "no vision" and a "we know better" attitude ignored opportunities offered by the swelling appetites and purses of the 4 billion people to Australia's north.
He said sky-high domestic costs in food processing – more than twice New Zealand's at $45 an hour – had drained Australia's ability to develop products to meet the changing tastes of Asia.
He welcomed BCA president
But Dr Stoeckel, who led the fight against the European Union's farm subsidies as head of the Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics in the 1980s, backed the dairy industry's call to relax merger rules in trade-exposed industries to help develop "national champions".
In export industries with no trade barriers "the main competition comes from open trade at the borders and for services," he said.
