ON PRO FOOTBALL; Bears' Faith in Salaam Should Be Rewarded
By Thomas George
Published: April 24, 1995
A lot of people think that the only way Rashaan Salaam will be successful in the National Football League is if a team lines him up deep in the I-formation, puts linemen in front of him like the old Redskins Hogs and pitches him the ball the way Eric Dickerson used to get it in his glory days with the Rams.
A lot of people think that Salaam's hands aren't as good as Ki-Jana Carter's (the No. 1 draft pick over all), that he is not as strong as Tyrone Wheatley (No. 17), that he is not as fast as Napoleon Kaufman (No. 18) and that he is not as nifty in the open field as James Stewart (No. 19). So, 20 teams passed on Salaam in the N.F.L. draft over the weekend, and all four of those backs were chosen before Salaam was selected at No. 21 by the Chicago Bears.
Salaam is out to prove a lot of people wrong.
Here is a player who won the Heisman Trophy last season, showed a sudden, special burst at the line scrimmage in his running style and with compact motion and tenacious effort left every college football back behind in his dust. But funny things tend to happen on draft day.
Teams start nit-picking and wringing their hands and wondering what could go wrong. They emphasize the minuses and the risks, and before they know it, talk themselves out of a good thing. The Bears were not about to let that happen to them.
Chicago is where the Jimmy Johnson influence still strongly presides in the N.F.L. Bears Coach Dave Wannstedt has said that Johnson is like a father to him, and Wannstedt drafted Salaam as if he had Johnson whispering in his ear. Johnson used to tell this story about drafting Emmitt Smith:
"I had scouts coming to me saying he couldn't do this and he couldn't do that. They said he was too slow, that he got caught from behind too much. I pulled back out the tape. And there I kept seeing the same thing. He was running for a 60-yarder against Tennessee. And then a 70-yard run against Alabama. And then a 75-yard run against Kentucky. I'm thinking, 'What are these people talking about!' So what if he gets caught after running 75 yards! People get caught up too much in the semantics. It's this simple -- the guys making plays in high school are invariably the guys making plays in college who are invariably the guys who make plays in the pros."
That simple.
Salaam is going to have every opportunity to star immediately with the Bears. This is a team that has been looking for a prize back ever since losing Walter Payton and Neal Anderson. Salaam will be given the ball and he will be king in the backfield. It is a perfect fit.
Watch and see in the tradition of players passed over in the draft like Jerry Rice (No. 16 over all) and Joe Montana (No. 82) and Seth Joyner (No. 208) if Salaam does not make these teams pay, one by one.
With everything else that has been said about Salaam, here are two more words that more aptly describe him: can't miss.
If you're looking for pure excitement in the draft, particularly in the first round, there are two players who stand out as perfectly fitting their team's needs and who should also star for years to come.
Kaufman and Joey Galloway.
Kaufman has blazing speed, and that makes him a natural for the Raiders. No one loves speed more than the Raiders, and when Kaufman, the Washington Huskies back, was still there at No. 18, the Raiders jumped out of their seats for him. If the Raiders plan to become more diversified in their offense and particularly in their running game, Kaufman fits the bill to perfection.
Galloway, the Ohio State receiver, has a similar build to Kaufman and similar speed. He is tremendous at breaking open and even finer at breaking away for yards after the catch. The Seattle Seahawks drafted him at No. 8, and watch and see how easily and frequently quarterback Rick Mirer finds him.
Two of the biggest question marks in the first round were Penn State tight end Kyle Brady at No. 9 to the Jets and Boston College defensive end Mike Mamula to Philadelphia at No. 7. If the Jets plan to employ a two-tight-end offense with Brady and Johnny Mitchell and create an intricate and flexible offense from it, then this pick can work. If the Jets are not sure of their convictions and flip-flop in scheme, this pick is an absolute dud considering the direction they could have taken in the draft.
Mamula worries many. He is light (almost 240 pounds) for a defensive end and there is concern that he will be pushed around on the pro level. No doubt, the Eagles count on him growing and bulking up and maintaining the speed and sheer power he possesses. No one questions the latter traits, but without more strength and size, speed and power are nearly inconsequential in today's pro game at defensive end.
Here are the players you never heard of but will come to know:
*Devin Bush, defensive back, Florida State. Atlanta swiped Bush, who has the speed and cover skills to be an All-Pro.
*Todd Collins, the quarterback from Michigan, went to the Bills and everyone who knows him says he may have been the smartest quarterback in college football. His skills are above average, so put those two traits together and it spells a long pro career.
*Chris Sanders, a receiver from Ohio State, is a track athlete who switched to football and has much promise as a Houston Oiler.
*Scott Gragg, the offensive tackle from Montana selected by the Giants, is a huge, towering, promising force with a wonderful attitude and a wonderful work ethic to match.

The Deakin Melbourne Boomers have eyes only for the very top in the hope of building an event that the Wattle Valley WNBL will be proud to highlight as a key fixture every season, identifying the AFL's Anzac Day clash between Essendon and Collingwood as an outstanding event they hope to emulate in women's basketball.
Though the State Basketball Centre (3200) has a capacity well below that of the MCG, Boomers General Manager, Justin Nelson, says it's the creation of a standalone event that attracts interest from all basketball supporters that his club is after and a big Melbourne derby between the Boomers and Rangers on the eve of Australia Day provides the perfect setting.
"The Deakin Melbourne Boomers take great pride in promoting events and providing entertainment for every person who walks into the stadium," said Nelson, adding, "We want the eve of Australia Day to become a regular fixture in the WNBL and for all lovers of the game to see it as a night out for the whole basketball community."
When selecting the best opponent for the creation of his WNBL Australia Day Eve Blockbuster, the Boomers GM looked no further than nearby rival, Dandenong.
"I can't think of a bigger rivalry in the league than that of a Boomers and Rangers clash, so it made sense to request we play them on this big night. Thankfully the league agreed with the Australia Day Eve concept and also the opponent."
As the nation prepares to celebrate Australia Day this year, Nelson wants basketball fans to know the WNBL will be starting festivities with a cracking showdown at the State Basketball Centre the night before.
"The Anzac Day clash in the AFL is more than just the game, it is a community event on a really significant day for our nation. Australia Day is also an important day for all of us, it's a time to stand up and proud of who we are, what we have and to show the values we all hold as Australians.
"The WNBL is a high quality competition and Australia is the second-ranked nation in women's basketball, so I can't think of a better time to celebrate our league and our outstanding female basketballers.
"We want January 25, the eve of Australia Day, to belong to the WNBL and to a game featuring the Deakin Melbourne Boomers in an annual fixture everyone looks forward to. Every sport out there is looking for their own slice of the Australian sporting calendar and hopefully this is the first of many annual Australia Day Eve games for us and it helps pave the way for the WNBL to own January 25 each year.
"And I say dream big. How good would it be to have a WNBL game live on television across the nation in the evening each year on January 25? That's what we are aiming for, we want this fantastic women's sport to be beamed around the country on the eve of Australia Day each year. That's the plan, but first we have to prove it will work and that people will support it, so grab the family and come and be a part of something special on Monday January 25," added Nelson.
To help promote the Boomers first Australia Day Eve Blockbuster they are providing free entry to all children (17 & under) who wear their club colours to the game – singlet or warm-up top. All clubs and associations across Melbourne and Victoria are encouraged to promote the game and encourage their junior players to wear their colours.
"We want to celebrate this event and make it the biggest game of the regular season, so every child who wears their colours, be it their local club or their local association, will get into this huge game for free. Be proud, wear your colours, represent your team and come and see the Boomers and Rangers in action," said Nelson.
WHAT: Australia Day Eve Blockbuster
WHO: Deakin Melbourne Boomers vs Dandenong Rangers
WHEN: Monday January 25
WHERE: State Basketball Centre (Wantirna South)
TIME: 7:30pm tip-off

We all age; it is a fact of life and happens to us all. Some of us seem to make it look better than others, though. Think of your favorite movie stars and how good they look for their age (especially the ones that haven't had any work done)! We all look beautiful in our own way. Looking like the "stars" doesn't make us beautiful it's who we are inside.
We can't stop getting older or change our genetics. Yet, there are things we can do to help so we don't make those common mistakes that often cause premature aging. There are thing we must do and many things we can avoid in order to age gracefully. We want to take care of our bodies and our skin as we get older. Our skin becomes more delicate, so we can't treat it the same as we always have. I've noticed as I've gotten older that the more I take care of my body, inside and out the better I feel. It is NEVER too early to start being proactive and caring for ourselves. In fact, I try to teach my young daughter's things I wish I had known when I was their age.
4 Things to Avoid to Age Gracefully
Don't Wear Too Much Makeup
You might think that more makeup will make you look younger, but that is not the case. Do you remember in high school that you wore makeup to try to look older? Well, it still works the same when you are older. Too much foundation, for example, can leave the face feeling dehydrated and dry. Too much can leave the makeup looking unnatural. You don't want to mask your natural beauty; you want to enhance it. So it is a case of less is more!
Don't Stress About Hair Loss
For some of us, hair loss is genetic and will just happen. For others of us, it can start to thin and may results in bald patches as we get older. One thing that could aggravate it is getting stressed out. So as hard as it may sound, keep calm about it. There are plenty of natural hair loss remedies out there, so it might be worth giving one of those a try.
Don't Go Without Sunscreen
Sun spots and wrinkles are the most obvious signs of aging skin. So one way to make sure that they aren't that bad is to make sure you are safe in the sun. You should always use a sunscreen, even in winter. One of the best ways is finding a light foundation that contains SPF in it. Then you don't have to even think about it. A sunscreen will help to maintain the elasticity of your skin. When you age the elasticity from your skin goes a little. So you don't want to make it any worse by causing more of it. The most important thing I've learned and shared with my patients; if in doubt use sunscreen. Even when you feel the sun isn't that strong or you may not be exposed for long. Getting into the habit of always having some level of sunscreen applied, is imperative.
Don't Smoke
Smoking is bad for your health in many ways. It can be the cause of numerous cancers which are harder to fight when you are older. It has bad effects on your teeth, gums and skin too. It can make your skin more wrinkled than non-smokers and dehydrate it. It can stain your teeth, making them a yellowish color. Not a good look if you are trying to age gracefully. So if you can, it is best to avoid!

Aging is a part of a life and it's something we can embrace and love. At the same time we can take steps to make sure our aging process and our bodies hold up enough for us to enjoy all life has out there for us. Do you have any tips or suggestions for helping ourselves to age gracefully? I'd love to hear any advice or tricks you may have for all of us 🙂

Under The Knife
"If I could do one of these every week, I'd do it," I said, as I was leaving the Tampa Ballpark Event. Sure, I might have been a little lighter in the wallet due to an extra fine from Andrew Friedman-and I'll put my money into the charity pot for all the times I've said "Devil" in front of "Rays" this season-but getting pinged for wearing my retro Devil Rays '07 jersey is a bit much. For the packed room, Friedman was the highlight during a great night of talking baseball. From the big swings in the team's performance since last year's event, the attendance issues, building a team and a ballpark together, to discussions of what to do about "too much talent," the attendees got their money's worth... and a hat! Heading down to our front-row seats right behind the bullpen, we received a lot of attention from the players there. Chad Bradford and Troy Percival seemed to be looking over at us quite often, surprised that Baseball Prospectus was there. (What? They were looking at Jenn Sterger?) I have pictures up and believe me, if you've never seen Ben Zobrist hit a grand slam in person, you haven't lived. I do want to thank everyone with the Rays-especially Andrew Friedman, David Baggs, and Stephen Thomas-for helping us to do this. Powered by one heck of an event, on to the injuries:
Matt Garza (0 DXL)
Carlos Zambrano (1 DXL)
Josh Beckett (15 DXL)
Billy Wagner (45 DXL)
J.D. Drew (25 DXL)
Rick Ankiel (0 DXL)
Yorvit Torrealba (30 DXL)
Melvin Mora (10 DXL)
Jeff Kent (10 DXL)
Quick Cuts: CC Sabathia went 117 pitches in a one-hit complete game. Jeff Karstens, who's been very good since the trade, went 110 pitches in 6

Re: Wagner
Sep 01, 2008 10:25 AM
Great catch, Jessica. I was looking for playoffs when I should have just been looking at the regular schedule!
Sep 01, 2008 10:28 AM
Brian Oakchunas
You have to wonder if there is something wrong with Harden and they just aren't telling anybody. He didn't look too sharp in his last start.
Sep 01, 2008 10:34 AM
Brock Dahlke
Hey Will, I have one open spot on my 5x5 Head to Head league, Who would be the better option for that spot, Takashi Saito or Phil Hughes, or Neither of them?
Sep 01, 2008 10:52 AM
S or W? That's the question.
Sep 01, 2008 16:19 PM
Brock Dahlke
So you are pretty sure both will contribute in the near future?
Sep 01, 2008 17:18 PM
Iannetta should have been playing every day anyway. His triple slash stats are just as good as Geovany Soto's. How Torrealba got 250+ PAs over him I'll never know.
Sep 01, 2008 10:59 AM
Thanks Will. It was a terrific event as it was last year with you, Joe Sheehan and Friedman. Don't sell yourself short. Friedman was great. Seems to me he is as candid as he can be. But you got us started on a terrific note, and later preempted a question that my son and I planned to ask. Great minds you know.
Sep 01, 2008 11:26 AM
Re: Harden - His last start he was only in the upper 80's with an uncharacteristic 4 walks. I think its smart to let him rest. 10 games up in the wild card, the Cubs have leeway with their moves and can risk starting Sean Marshall to keep these guys fresh.
Sep 01, 2008 12:18 PM
Ben Sheets just left his start after 5 innings and 54 pitches. No reason given yet.
Sep 01, 2008 12:31 PM
Jessica Bader
The Mets broadcast just said that Sheets's early exit was due to left groin tightness.
Sep 01, 2008 12:40 PM
...well if I had known Jenn Sterger was going to be there... gotta let us know something like that!
Sep 01, 2008 12:41 PM
Any reason why you think 50 AB in August will necessarily alter Ankiel's swing for the worse for 2009? I could see this if the injury was not repaired soon or they allow him to try to play through it, but that does not appear to be the case.
Sep 01, 2008 14:11 PM
Is it a better idea to skip Harden or keep him on normal rest but throwing only 80-90 pitches?
Sep 01, 2008 14:53 PM
Great ballpark event at the Trop, Will. Thanks. Among other things, we appreciated your insight into the development of David Price. Best regards.
Sep 01, 2008 15:22 PM
Will, Do you think that Rocco is 1) one of the best medical comeback stories in the last decade of baseball, 2) has bulked up in body-size a little and 3) is actually benefitting from his long time off.
Sep 01, 2008 18:59 PM
Hard to say on 1. It has to be up there, but we REALLY don't understand this. 2. Maybe, but that could be because of the medication, treatment and finally not being injured and slow healing.

"Who do you think we should be more worried about, from a pure workload standpoint?"
Sep 01, 2008 22:49 PM
Isn't asking Garza about a potential subconscious mechanical flaw in his delivery the baseball equivalent of the psyche-out technique in golf of asking your opponent how he can even hit the ball with that hitch in his backswing? For the Rays' sake, I hope you didn't get inside his head.
Sep 02, 2008 07:05 AM
re: "Who do you think we should be more worried about, from a pure workload standpoint?"
Sep 02, 2008 07:34 AM
On a similar note, let's say Pitcher A labours and gets through 5 but it takes him 118 pitches. Pitcher B gets through 7 innings on 90 pitches.
Sep 02, 2008 09:29 AM
Or, the difference between Scott Kazmir and Roy Halladay.
Sep 02, 2008 11:37 AM
If you are telling me that only through scouting can you point out the differences b/w Kazmir and Doc, then I submit that there's more work to be done.

Doctor insights on:
Tired Night Vision
Tingling,numbness,burning in muscles come and go. Feel weak-little strength. Feel tired. Blurred vision at night. Hard to talk sometimes. Any idea? TY
Neuromuscular: 39 yo male with a systemic neuromuscular 'syndrome.' Go to an internal medicine clinic first for a good history and neuro exam as well as lab work. Need to rule out electrolyte imbalance (calcium, magnesium, etc) as well as vitamin deficiencies and low blood counts (CBC). After that, start considering true neurologic syndromes or autoimmune syndromes. You are high risk age. ...Read more
Vision (Definition)
Vision is a feature of a person's brain that allows him to see. He must have normal eyes, optic nerves (that stretch from the eyes to the back of his brain), and visual cortex (the vision center in the brain), in order to see properly. An ophthalmologist is a ...Read more
What are techniques to improve night vision?
Pray: Zero, unless you live in an area of vitamin a deficiency- then eat some carrots or take vitamin a. ...Read more
Should i consider getting reflective contacts for night vision?
? Reflective: I am not aware of reflective contact lenses. There is also no such thing as contacts for night vision. Most people become a little nearsighted at night. Easier to just get glasses for night which have a mild myopic correction in them. ...Read moreSee 1 more doctor answer
Will bilberries help my night vision?
Maybe: There were some studies many years back that demonstrated improved night vision if taking bilberry. 1 randomized study and 7 non- randomized studies demonstrated positive effect from bilberry. The 4 most recent randomized controlled studies demonstrate no affect of bilberry on night vision. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14711439 and http://www.Thorne.Com/altmedrev/.Fulltext/5/2/164.Pdf. ...Read moreSee 1 more doctor answer
Can chlorophyll improve your night vision?
No: These are unrelated and there is no effect of this otherwise wonderful chemical, on eyesight. ...Read more
Is it true that carrots help your night vision?
Depends: The basis for this "old wive's tale" is that, accurately, carrots as well as other yellow/orange vegetables and gourds (squash, pumpkin) are fantastic sources of vitamin a, an essential vitamin required for photoreceptor (cone/rod) metabolism. While severe vitamin a deficiency may lead to serious, but generally reversible, vision problems, such as night blindness, most people in developed countries meet more than their daily vitamin a requirements from normal diets and there is no need to consume exorbitant amounts of carrots. In fact, vitamin a excess may be toxic to the liver and some clinical studies have demonstrated that excess vitamin a metabolites may actually be potentially toxic to photoreceptors. ...Read moreSee 1 more doctor answer
Are there glasses that can increase your night vision?
Yes: In some patients adding a negative 1/2 diopter improves their night vision. Also night vision goggles can improve your vision at night. Spending several minutes in the dark, adapts your rods so you can see better. Use a red light flashlight to avoid loosing your dark adaptation. Don't forget that wild cats have 6 times better night vision than humans, so be careful out there. :). ...Read moreSee 1 more doctor answer
Poor night vision: do I have any options other than driver?
Corrective lenses: We all get more myopic (near-sighted) at night (stiles-crawford effect). Sometimes a stronger spectacle rx is needed for driving in the dark. There are retinal conditions that can cause poor night vision (search "nyctalopia"). A refraction performed with pupils dilated and ability to accommodate paralyzed can establish baseline spectacle rx, . In older people, a common cause is cataracts. ...Read more
I really need advice? Is there decreased night vision with age?
A little: Night perception requires the biochemical reconstitution of the light receptive pigments of the retina. As with all things, there is a little slowing of this with age. It is not usually very noticeable, so if this is a particular problem, see your ophthalmologist to see if there is another cause. ...Read more
What are the rods and cones functions in terms of night vision?
Rods are for night: Cones detect color, and work best in bright light. The rods are the cells of the retina that function at night, allowing you so see better in dim light conditions. ...Read more

FAA Aircraft Dispatcher Knowledge Test Preparation

From the U.S. iTunes store:
5 stars – "Excellent way to prepare to take your ADX"
byC32load – Oct 1, 2016
I love this app! I think the study mode is outstanding. The explanations are very easy to understand and I love the the information stating which questions are outdated. Also, the tips on how to get a correct answer are very helpful. I use the study guide once for the explanations and the quiz mode to really put the answer in my mind.The price is very inexpensive when I factor in the help this is giving me to prepare for my class soon. I couldn't imagine not using this.
5 stars – "A unique and updated app"
by1234storm – Oct 1, 2016
…The app is updated and edited frequently from what I could tell – including the questions, images, aircraft categories, audio clips, even some video clips, etc.. ..There are B-737 operating/performance questions, which the app explains really well. Regarding other info, I see the new, smaller aircraft questions in my app, and have spoken to colleagues who all passed their ADX test after using the app. All I know is that this app sped up the study time needed to easily pass the ADX for me. Sheffield will also send you any detailed supplement files that might be a space hog on an app, if you request it. They even gave me free access to their web site resources for studying. I just asked for it. That alone would cost more than the app itself, so this app is MORE than worth it.
5 stars – "Very helpful!"
byDL19921 – Sep 17, 2016
I used this app to prepare for the ADX test and passed with above an 80. The app is easy to use and very helpful.
5 stars – "Great App"
byMarcusMartinez – Sep 17, 2016
Great app from a great organization!! Put on your phone and study anywhere conveniently and discreetly. I studied before meetings, waiting on movies to start, at games during timeouts, etc. Well worth the cost for the content and convenience.
5 stars
bymitchellman – Nov 29, 2015
This app is exactly what it says it is. I passed the ADX with a 92 using nothing but this app. Only once in a month of use did I ever have an issue with the app and I emailed them and it was fixed within hours. Ended up taking up the dispatcher course from Sheffield as well and less than 6 months after downloading this app I had my dispatch license. Great app and great program
From the Poland iTunes store:
5 stars – "Easy decision"
byTcspilot – Jan 9, 2015
While some of the other reviews here mentioned the cost of this app as a consideration, I'll start by saying disregard that if you're weighing several options to prepare for the ADX exam. Having taken more FAA written exams over a career in aviation than I care to recount…this app is by far the most user friendly, comprehensive and even entertaining program to prepare you for not only the exam, but also for the course work that would naturally follow its successful completion. I'm several weeks into using the app, admittedly far more sporadically than I should be, so my review here is based on how well I feel I'm making progress toward the ultimate goal. And so far…I feel 100% positive. I'll leave a second review once I pass the exam itself (because having a few weeks with the app I feel certain I'll not only pass but ace the exam!) As for the what's actually functionally good about it…I'll cede to the other reviews here as they nailed it precisely. Structure, organization and ease of operation are all there. I guess the point of leaving a review is to offer a little guidance on whether or not your money is well spent on whatever app one is considering, I've relied on reviews often myself for that reason. So let me make it an easy decision, this is the first review I've ever written because I feel so strongly that your money will be well invested in the Sheffield ADX Test Prep app.
5 stars – "This is a good app"

I recommend this app for ADX study. I used it as my primary source for practice questions and found it very helpful- especially study mode and the explanations for almost every answer. It gives you immediate feedback and you can memorize a lot through word association. If I had to do it again I'd buy this app sooner (the price scared me off initially) because I got a ton of use out of it. It's really easy to practice an entire section whenever you have a few spare minutes- that's what sets it apart from other study methods. In short, get this app, don't worry about buying books or anything else. Put the time in and you'll pass the ADX easily.
5 stars – "Brilliant App"
byMattack44 – May 10, 2014
This app is a must for anyone serious about taking and passing the FAA Aircraft Dispatcher Exam! Don't let the price scare you, this app is more than worth it. The three modes of study are all immensely helpful, especially the Study mode. The Study mode allows you to view real exam questions and will give you additional content where needed through videos and other media. It will also not only show you the correct answer but explains why an answer is correct / not correct. On top of that, the app lets you know when any questions are written poorly by the FAA or are outdated in "real world" flight dispatching, and will give you tips on how to find the right answer for these trouble questions. The app works great on either iPad or iPhone. The only improvement I'd suggest is allowing you to save your spot in the Study mode. This would be helpful on large subject areas like FAR Part 121. In conclusion, this app is all you need to pass the exam. You'd pay much more trying to piece together everything separately (Gleim manuals, weather books, FAA regulations, etc. )

Very useful solution for ADX test preparation. Thanks to developers
From the U.S. iTunes store:
5 stars – "Great App"
By Brandoluo-Version 1.1-September 30, 2013
"The only thing I used to study for the ADX is this app. And I passed with flying colors, has a great mode where it randomizes all the questions for a feel of how the real exam is like."
5 stars – "Passed the ADX!"
By MGgirl17-Version 1.0-Feb 15, 2013
"I used Sheffield's app as my main source of studying for the ADX. I like the different mode options available between quiz, study, test and the practice exams. Study mode was great for getting an explanation about the question. That helped me in remembering the correct answer. This app made it convenient to be able to study wherever I was or if I had a few minutes to waste I could use it studying. A few words of advice, give yourself plenty of time to prepare for the test and go to Sheffield for your flight dispatcher training, you won't be sorry! Best school around!"
5 stars – "ADX"
By CALMIAATO-Version 1.0-Dec 19, 2012
"simple interface, only 3 mb, but provides text, highlighted images, audio, and video explanations. Variety of quizzes, tests, and study sessions that are fully customizable, and the 80-question exam generator with great feedback. Also, leads to a lot of web-based extras and free resources."

5 stars – "The most perfect FAA Test preparation ever!"
27 Nov 2012 12:14:41
"I have never seen such a sophisticated and easy to use learning and training method like the app from Sheffield School of Aeronautics in Fort Lauderdale FL. It contains all questions related to the ADX Knowledge test by the FAA.
The questions are corrected where necessary and there is an explanation for each answer. You will also have access to the protected scripts from Sheffield School of Aeronautics. I doubt anybody has written a 45-page pdf file with zoomed images to explain one flight log completely. In addition the support from the school is just great! I can absolutely recommend this high standard product! An app for real professionals or those who want to become one – great job!

"Thanks for all the information! It has helped me refocus on studying and now I'm starting to get into the 90's on the simulated exams. I plan on taking it next week. I have also recommended your app to a few of my friends looking at getting into DX as well as it's a great tool, especially on the go."
May 2, 2013
"…I really like the convenience factor. I study during my downtime at work and it's pretty easy to get a practice exam in each day since you don't have to flip through a booklet to get to each diagram. Especially on the aircraft performance questions. So I can typically get through one in 45 min, not including when I have to stop and do work. Before I started using the app, I was getting 60-65% on practice exams. Now I'm up to 90-95%…"
…a few days later…
"I passed! There were only a handful of questions that I had never seen before. 90% of my studying was via the app, …. I can say the Sheffield App sped up the process as in just two weeks I went from barely passing the practice exams, to passing all of them well above 70%."

Editorial: Santom Dexim Attacked Cancer Victims' Families to Push Snake Oil at CES
Jason Mick
January 15, 2014 2:36 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
(Source: Jason Mick/DailyTech LLC)
Scientifically baseless lies and attacks are inexcusable; CEA should take note and ban Santor/Dexim
2014 Consumer Electronics Show
(CES 2014) has come and gone and there's plenty to be excited about. But after a week of reflection I feel compelled to speak out about something I saw at the opening "Unveiled" event.
I. Digital Snake Oil
The culprit was Shenzhen, China-based
Santom Ltd.
-- a company who also goes by the name "Dexim" (maybe they're two different companies, but in the Americas, the company's full name is "dexim Santom USA Inc." At the Unveiled event they made the sensational claim to have a product that protects you from:
bone cancer
skin cancer
... and more!
How do they do this? They put a cover on the back of your cell phone with a battery in it!
.... uh, wait what?
Clearly this Chinese gadget maker who has an Americas outpost in Ontario, Canada is counting on its target audience (Apple, Inc. (
) iPhone 5/5S owners) to be gullible. I take that back -- they're counting on them to be glaringly gullible.
Their "XPowerSkin" appears -- in my professional opinion -- to be a handy backup battery and a passable bumper, but its maker is using lies to try to generate interest and push a cheap product to be sold at a higher unit fee.
Someone call Sweet Brown -- a Chinese company claims cell phones cause bronchitis.
I'm disappointed that the show organizer (the
Consumer Electronics Association
(CEA)) would invite Santom if they were aware of its pitch. But I'd imagine the weren't.
Let be clear. It's utter fear-mongering malarkey to suggest that smartphone, tablets, or any other form of wireless devices cause this laundry list of cancers. Even
among wireless fearmongers
, the kinds of claims Santom is making are extremely uncommon.
II. Electricity != Nuclear Decay
It appears the "engineers" over at Santom Ltd. must have slept through high school biology and physics, or they would have learned:
Radiofrequency waves are electromagnetic fields, and unlike ionizing radiation such as X-rays or gamma rays, can neither break chemical bonds nor cause ionization in the human body.
Those aren't my words -- they're the words of the
World Health Organization
(WHO) -- one of the medical field's most reputable international authorities. The WHO
A large number of studies have been performed over the last two decades to assess whether mobile phones pose a potential health risk. To date, no adverse health effects have been established as being caused by mobile phone use.... research has not been able to provide support for a causal relationship between exposure to electromagnetic fields and self-reported symptoms, or "electromagnetic hypersensitivity".
esults of animal studies consistently show no increased cancer risk for long-term exposure to radiofrequency fields.
The largest retrospective case-control study to date on adults, Interphone, coordinated by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), was designed to determine whether there are links between use of mobile phones and head and neck cancers in adults..... there was no consistent trend of increasing risk with greater duration of use. The researchers concluded that biases and errors... prevent a causal interpretation.
In other words scientists say there's
no evidence that cell phones or Wi-Fi are causing brain cancer
by beaming waves through your skull.
When most of us who passed high school science hear "radiation" in the context of disease, we think of ionizing radiation from radioactive isotopes. Ionizing radiation
of course
can cause enormous damage including leukemia, lung damage (ephysema), skin cancer, etc. Again that's ionizing radiation -- the kind you might encounter while playing with plutonium, drinking a nuka cola, or rushing out of your bunker to try to save a teenager during an atom bomb test.
But ionizing radiation by no means isthe same as nonionizing radiation, more commonly refered to as low-energy electromagnetic waves/signals. Comparing low-energy electromagnetic waves to ionizing radiation (which includes both particle and high energy EM waves) is like saying the Earth is a star. It's ignorant, it's wrong, it's just plain stupid.
Santom-dexim was advertising wireless speakers right next to pamphlets blaming cancer victims families for supposedly causing the disease with their cell phones.
[Image Source: jason Mick/DailyTech LLC]
Even Santom-dexim seems to realize this. Not only did they use CES as a platform for this baseless fearmongering campaign, in an epically hypocritical twist -- ready your facepalm -- they were also promoting wireless Bluetooth-enabled stereo speakers right next to their fliers telling you that wireless signals cause cancer
III. Sometimes, Bad Science Can Get Personal
At the event where they were handing out these fliers I confronted dexim Santom's employees. I informed them: "You do realize there's no scientific evidence that cell phones cause cancer?"
The dexim Santom representative responded, but refused to back down from his company's claims. In broken English he argued that "everyone knows" cell phones are "bad for the health".
To his understanding the causative mechanism was chips inside the phone "getting hot". He claimed the signals and heat triggered cancer and that the rubber case with its lithium ion battery somehow blocks those foul cancer rays.
I was fighting leukemia before I or anyone else in my family ever got a cell phone contract.

Normally I would laugh off such fantastically ridiculous claims. But when you start to attack the victims you've sunk to a bizarre new low, and you should faces consequences.
Believe me, I'm not one to cry foul or preach political correctness very often. I'm a staunch supporter of free speech. And that's why on the off occasion where I see truly hateful, snake oil like this I arm myself against it with words as my weapon.
Am I taking all this a bit personally? You bet I am. I am a cancer survivor. A little over ten years ago, after my freshman year of college I found myself unexpectedly in a war. My body was destroying itself. After being tested for everything from the flu to Lyme disease, I found myself diagnosed with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML).
Sound medicine and good science saved my life from a terrible disease and I will never forget that. Today my health has never been better. Last year I ran my first marathon.
When you lie and blame patients' cancer on the victims and their families, you deserve to be condemned. [Image Source: CARE | Karen's Blog]
But as good as I have it, I will never be able to fully forget seeing many people who were not as young or lucky as I was. Many of my hospital ward neighbors during those days of IVs and hospital gowns didn't make it to see "remission", much less a "cure." My heart goes out to the surviving loved ones of those who died on those hospital beds.
As a scientist, as a reporter, and -- yes, as a cancer survivor, I find it disgusting to market such lies to the public to sell a product, exploiting cancer deaths to sell your cheap cell phone case.
IV. Blaming the Victims and Their Families -- Are you Kidding Me?
But where I think where Santom sinks to its ultimate, low, though, is when its marketers choose attack not only cancer victims (blaming them for causing their illness), but their family members as well, stating in broken English:
was impacted (sic) your families health!
[Image Source: Jason Mick/DailyTech LLC]
No, you Santom nincompoops, it has not.
What is remarkable about this statement as it transforms one of the most wildly unfounded and sensational claims of cell phone illnesses (bronchitis -- really?) and takes it to a whole new realm of offensiveness. Basically, dexim Santom is accusing the families of people who get leukemia, skin cancer, etc. of causing the cancer.
This is an amazingly offensive claim -- I've never heard of even those who fear cell phone towers restorting to such accusations of cancer victims' families. It's an incredibly cold-hearted and poorly thought out claim, even on top of the fundamentally incompetent science that backs it.
While a small minority of cancers are due to occupation exposures (asbestos, benzene, etc.), anyone with a graduate level biochemistry, cellular biology, or cancer biology background will tell you that cancer does not occur overnight. It is the culmination of dozens of mutations which took the diseased cells to their breaking point.
Mutations may be impacted by certain environmental factors (diet, etc.), but more than anything are a heavily stochastic (random) process. My cancer, fell into this category. As my doctor told me, it was basically a roll of the dice in terms of mutation events. I had rotten luck.
My luck has since turned, but I can not help but be appalled at the decision of this company to accuse the families of unlucky cancer victims of causing their loved ones' disease.
Many cancers are effectively an unlucky dice roll in terms of genetic predispositions and random mutations -- to blame the victims and their families is heartless.
[Image Source: UCLH.org]
Why not just sell your product as a backup battery? Why lie to customers? Why capitalize on human suffering to make a cheap buck??
Now I realize likely only a handful of employees at Santom and its dexim brand were involved in this ugly effort. But that doesn't change the blame born by the company and whoever committed it to this reprehensible advertising pitch.
That move definitely earns dexim Santom my "worst in show" award. Now, I don't usually give a "worst" award for anything, as there's a positive to even the most flawed products. But I see no positive in spreading lies about cancer. That kind of thing earns you a rare "worst" destinction.
[Image Source: Jason Mick/DailyTech LLC]
It's a free market, but I recommed that readers refuse to do business with dexim Santom USA and its foreign parents. I also suggest you boycott the "XPowerSkin" iPhone case that was promoted by these falsehoods.
I hope the CEA takes note Santom's statements, as well, and does not give them such a prominent showcase in the future to spread fear, uncertainty, and disinformation (FUD) discrediting an otherwise superb industry event. Feel free to email either Santom
or the CEA
with your thoughts.

Basically, its very functional. Providing pretty much everything I need (all farmables are being farmed) but I want to make it pretty.
My trouble is that this thing took litterally tens of thousands of wood blocks to build (I'm talking over 100 large jungle trees here) so I don't want to damage the integral structure.
So this is my challenge to you. Take my collosal wood tower (giggity) and make it beautiful or at least give me some ideas.

There are many different supplements out there. What ones should the average person take? How do I know if it's a good one? Here are a few simple rules and tips to help wade through the waters of the ever expanding supplement market.
First rule: you get what you pay for. If you are trying to buy the bottom cheap supplements that is what you will get. Ones I tend to avoid would be Centrum, and One a Day. They spend more money on the marketing of these instead of the product.
Second rule: Place your supplement in a cup of warm water. If the supplement doesn't dissolve with in a half our, or have signs of dissolution, it is not being absorbed by you. Switch it out for a better one that will dissolve in water.
Third rule: Ignore claimed levels advertised on the front of the bottle. you must read the nutritional facts to see how much of the active ingredient you are getting. For example Fish oil is a ratio of total oils vs the active portion the DHA, and EPA. The front will say something like 100mg, but the actual amount of DHA and EPA is only 600mg.
Fourth rule: Avoid buying them in the grocery store. To to a store the specializes in supplements like GNC, or Super Supplements, and ask questions. They have a knowledgeable staff that will help you get exactly what you need.
So what does Dr. McBride recommend? Everyone should be taking the following:
Good multivitamin: Nature Made GNC, other brands found at Supper Supplements. I personally Use GNC MEGA Man Multivitamin. They have a very similar blend for women too. I consider these insurance. No matter what you might or might not eat in a day, a good multivitamin will give you the small nutrients your body needs to run on all cylinders.
Fish Oil: You can take this in pill or liquid form as long as your are getting at least 2000mg a day of the active ingredients. Fish oil's main advertised advantage is cardiovascular health. It does much more then that, they help reduce inflammation through out the whole body, so your immune system can work on the real problems. If you would like to learn more about omega 3s and omega 6s, keep you eyes peeled for the next upcoming blog, or ask Dr. McBride.
Vitamin D: This is the cheapest mood booster you can buy. A month supply is under $20 and you will be amazed how good you will feel. Take up to 4000IU a day. On a bright sunny day our body makes about 7000IUs. 4000IUs is a safe level. If you do decide to dose higher then 6000IUs consider have regular blood screens, Vitamin D can increase blood calcium levels that can thicken the blood, and increase the risk for kidney stones. For more information talk to Dr. McBride.
Glucosamine Sulfate / Chondroitin Sulfate / MSM: These three are for the joints. They help your joints absorb more water and hold onto it to protect the cartilage and bone. If you are an athlete you must be on these. Myself as a occasional runner, I take them and no longer have knee pains. Avoid the HCl ones. The sulfate form is harder to find, but every store has at least a few, and if you can get one that has a combination of the three. Your friendly supplements store staff can help point you in the right direction.
There are many more that can be recommend for certain conditions. For more information or if you have any questions regarding supplements, contact your downtown portland Chiropractor Nicholas McBride.

Bottom line: the prevalence of "assault rifles" amongst French bad guys is no longer a secret. And if the Paris attacks weren't enough to expose this grim reality, here's a post-Paris story [via dailymail.co.uk] that makes that point perfectly clear . . .
Several Kalashnikov-wielding gunmen are on the run tonight after a botched robbery attempt led to a dramatic shootout with French police close to the Belgian border.
A bank manager's wife and their two children – including an 11-month-old baby – were taken hostage during the siege, which ended after several hours when one of the armed men was killed.
Another was arrested but 'two or three other gunmen' fled the scene in the northern French town of Roubaix, local authorities said. The hostages were freed unharmed some three hours after the gun battle began at about 7pm local time.
Police say the incident is not believed to be linked to the terror attacks in Paris.
No doubt this event will help energize the French government's renewed call for [increased] gun control. While fueling the black market for firearms amongst law abiding Frenchmen. [h/t NJ]

It's a shame that normal, everyday Parisians(?) will have to resort to the black market to buy firearms to protect themselves and their families. Take note, this may be our reality if the Regressives have their way!
How is it that the French government seems totally ignorant of the history of the French Resistance to the Nazi occupation? Brave French men and women obtained firearms and explosives by whatever means they could devise and used them to various degrees of effectiveness in spite of certain torture and death if caught and in many cases the death of your family, friends or even an entire village.
At some point the descendants of those brave partisans who survived will have had enough of being treated like helpless victims by their own government and decide to make the necessary changes. I hope that it is not already too late.
Blame the Belgiums…………..and their waffles.
Waffle control?
How is that related to suppressor Baffles? I am baffled..
I see what you did there. Nicely done. Nicely done.
I imagine waffle strikes are less catastrophic.
The thought that any government, anywhere, can prevent people who are willing to spend money from getting their hands on any "contraband" is beyond ludicrous.
If you have the readies you can get all the coke, H, or whatever you want in the UAE, and a variety of other countries where dealing is punishable by death. The suggestion that any gov, anywhere, can stop the flow of illegal guns to bad actors is akin to believing in a flat earth.
Whoa! Must have drifted off for a second! I was imagining that first paragraph being read by the great Rod Serling… try it yourself!
I only hope that people as a whole can open they're eyes and see that guns are no more of a problem than human nature………. Human nature is what drives anybody to do whatever it is that, that person has their mind set on…… Getting rid of firearms will only open the doors to other means of crime. Hell look at Europe, more stabbings and beatings, but guess what they can't blame guns, right? Blame the knives, Damn those evil knives and clubs!!!!!!!!
AK's keep turning up in France at crime scenes. Do the French have an AK's R Us outlet I don't know about. Have any of these crime scene AK's been traced to legal outlets and buyers in France? If an RPG turns up at the next event are the French gonna ban pellet rifles?
How come the French (and Belgians) are so lucky? They have access to full auto ak's at a thousand euros a pop! No tax stamp, no registry, no waiting and best of all… wait, there is no best. Sorry I thought it was LAW ABIDING French and Belgians who were so lucky. My mistake. Carry on. These aren't the 'droids I'm looking for.
Maybe the French need Le NRA? N est ce pas?
I mean we are always accused of trying to export democracy, which we aren't (at least always) and shouldn't be really doing anyway.
But exporting the second amendment to countries like France, or any other that does not recognize this individual right, perhaps is something we should seek to do.
And the NRA might be a good vehicle to do that.
So a French branch of the NRA? Sounds good to me.
Thanks for your email. I live in France (ex-Scotland). I am a paid and active member with the NRA and support and wish to help Americans defend their rights and their liberty. Unfortunately we don't have th 2nd Ammendment ( how I wish ) but right now we surely need the help of fellow shooters in the USA.
If you have any influence on anyone then bring your idea up. I'm sure it could catch on. Perhaps call it 'NRA Overseas Friends' or something like that.
Kind regards, Mark
No, thank you Mark for your reply, I think that's awesome!
Apologies, I have no influence other than being a citizen who is able to support organizations like the NRA and SCOPE (our local gun rights organization), which I do to my limited ability.
Yes we have the second amendment here in the states, but as you know it is under attack. I live in upstate New York (that means far away from New York City where the second amendment is all but nullified. We have to deal with the SAFE act which puts great limits (infringements) on what firearms we can purchase. Even so, we are allowed to exercise our rights with the exception of "assault rifles" which cannot be purchased at all.
I do have an AR-10 (as you might have guessed from my nic 🙂 that I have carefully built to be compliant with the SAFE act. That means a barrel that has no threaded end or muzzle device, no protruding grip as you see on traditional AR-10/15 pattern rifles. For this I use the FRS-15 stock which is a little goofy and while I would prefer a traditional grip I actually like the FRS-15 stock even so. I also only have 10 round magazines which I only am able to load with 7 rounds per (unless I am at the range).
It's a terrible law and frankly makes no one safer to do all of the things I mention above, but where I live this is the law and I am a law abiding citizen so it is what it is. C'est la vie, no? 🙂
Anyway I am very glad to hear this response from someone in France! The point I was making – just the thoughts of a simple US gun owner really – was just an idea. We believe that the right of self defense is not just an American right, but the right of all men everywhere, an inherent right that all men should be able to defend themselves from evildoers and to meet them with the same force that they are able to bring to bear. This is a simple idea, and thankfully our founding fathers put this right into our nations founding document.
But I believe this is something that should be a right of all men in all free societies!
So often we Americans are accused of being imperialist and an expansionist force, trying to export democracy to all the world. This, in the bigger picture, is absurd on it's face, but of course there are reasons this accusation is made and very valid when looked at in specific cases.
Anyway my real point isn't about this being a valid accusation or not – right or wrong I believe that the exportation of democracy is a bad idea and shouldn't be a goal of our nation in the slightest. But what I do think would be appropriate and should be done, is to support all men anywhere who seek to change their own countries laws around the right to keep and bear arms and to put it simple, that we should seek to export the second amendment!
Hah, were we to do this in any official way, we all know what the screaming anti-gunners would say!
I say bring it. This is the right thing to do, that all law abiding and good men in any society should be able to meet evil force with equal or better force, and the second amendment fosters that right.
I am tired of the constant attacks here on our clear and unalienable right, codified in our constitution. If they are going to attack this right, and we know they will, we should seek to keep this right and help any in any society that seeks the same thing for themselves!
And how do we do this?
I can't make it happen, all I can do on my end is think and write and support politicians on our side who will seek to preserve our rights (Ted Cruz is such a man in my opinion).
I think having a French branch of the NRA would be a great thing. I've no idea how this would happen or if it would even be possible (lawyer is not what I am). But it's just an idea, and it's not the solution in itself either, and not the only option.
But like I said, I am just an average NY resident who supports gun rights and posts on blogs occasionally….
But I think it's awesome that you responded and we are thinking of you and praying for the victims and survivors.
I say we send Shannon and her mommies over to establish a European chapter. They have been so successful here in the US with gun control. /sarc
I wouldn't get too cocky, daddy BloomBucks has really deep pockets and won't give up until he's pacified the savages.
You are correct Robert, about everything except saying Islamic "extremist".
When the founder of Islam(Muhammad) has set the standard of how a devout Muslim is supposed to act in practicing the religion of submission, then everything that happened in this last Islamic attack/ mass murder in Paris is simply following the inspiration and guiding light of what Muhammad (as the "perfect" example of the "last prophet of Allah") did 1400 years ago in spreading Islam.
The Paris murderers were just being "good"(devout)muslims.
Most Muslims are good people. A few aren't. What do we do about the bad ones without being just like them? The good ones need arms.
The "actual" followers of Islam are called upon to take over everything, and everywhere, in the name of Islam.
The "good" ones? They aren't real Muslims, and they will be killed as apostates when the jihadis come. As they always have since the founding of this religion. As they are right now.
The greatest danger to civilization right now is Islam. You need to be aware of all the Muslim countries where the "moderates" run the show. Protip: There are precisely zero, and there has never been one.
