Flowering Time ~53 days
Dominance mostly indica
Bio We got this yummieblue clone (bearing California Sour x OG Kush genes) from California given to us by a medical marijuana dispensary. We found that the taste and smell of this clone was amazing. However bud structure was quite fluffy. So we then used our trusted Afghan (Afghan Kush one of the ancestors of the OG Kush) to try and create a hybrid with tighter bigger buds. Yet preserving that unique smell and taste. Dedicated breeding and several generations later to stabilize the strain we achieved an amazing hybrid. We then proceeded to make a selection. As a father we decided to use an amazing pretty blue with light purple hues colored pheno. That also had that gorgeous smell and taste. The mother was a big budding lady covered in resin. The result is an incredible Sativa/Indica hybrid called the Blue Medi Kush. She is a sativa/indica hybrid in every sense of the word. Structure length and flowering time definitely show her Indica genes. Taste and high however are that of a classic Sativa.She is a ferociously fastflowering strain that will finish flowering in about 7 to 8 weeks. Height will be limited to around 0.40-0.70cm. She can develop 1 out of 4 phenos beautiful blue/purple hues in the latter stages of flowering. In the beginning of flowering she will at first look skinny but she will beef up within two weeks to develop tight bulging buds. She has a reasonable to good yield and is an absolute treat to smoke. She is a really great medicinal strain to combat depression tackle stress and as an anti-anxiety medicine. She also proves helpful as an appetite-stimulant.The smell is floral pepperminty smell reminiscent of black hash. The palate is delicious; a gorgeous fruity taste with hints of grapes (aged wine) and a minty aftertaste. The high is longlasting uplifting and euphoric. Ideal for daytime medication. Medicinal value: anxiety stress general pain depression and appetite stimulant.60% Indica.Genotype: California Sour X OG Kush X Afghan Kush.Floral peppermint aroma remiscent of Black Hasj. Fantastic fruity (grapes) and minty taste.Great medicinal strain for numerous ailments.Longlasting uplifting high.Potential THC level: high.Flowering time indoor: 7-8 weeksHarvesting outdoor: October-NovemberPlant height: Indoor 0.40-0.70m / Outdoor 1.80-2.50mYield: Indoor 350-450 gr/m² / Outdoor: 115-140 gr/plantGrowing difficulty: medium

Only half of my form shows up when I embed it, why?Asked by sallymccarthy on December 12, 2013 at 01:31 PM
I am using MUSE and have done this a number of times and never had this problem. Only half of my form shows up when I embed it, why? Help?
Here is the source code that I am embedding:
<script type="text/javascript" src="//form.jotform.us/jsform/33455013888156"></script>
Can you please share to us URL of your website where your form is embedded for us to investigate the issue and for further assistance?
yes, the url is:
JotForm Support
Hi Sally,
Thanks for providing the website URL. It is easy for us to diagnose the problem if we see it in our browser.
I inspected your page source and found out that you have short width container for your form. The div container has 200px width and the form requires 635px.
To fix this,
1. Open your contact.css stylesheet.
2. Find the div container ID where the form is placed, it is #u6635 then changed the current width from 200px to 635px under it.
The form could possibly overlaps on your page after that, so you have to make further adjustments with your CSS.
Unfortunately with muse the css is not available for editing. Is there an adjustment I can make in the code on jot form.
Sent from my Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Smartphone
JotForm Support Manager
I think you can edit the width of the form to make fit into the div container.
.form-all {
width: 200px !important;
However, the fields might be overlapped or moved to the next line. I hope this helps
This is still provided that I can access the css which I cannot. Also, the width should be closer to 590px.
I have never had this trouble before using Jot Form. Can you give me code that does not include "script" to embed?
Thank you!
If you have already tried this guide.
I would suggest to try embedding the form utilizing the iframe method.
This should allow you to set the height and width directly from the code:
<iframe id="JotFormIFrame" onload="window.parent.scrollTo(0,0)" allowtransparency="true" src="//support.jotform.com/form/33455013888156" frameborder="0" style="width:100%; height:465px; border:none;" scrolling="no"></iframe>
If you need further support, do let us know. Thank you.

It looks like that your spam protection rejected the email notification once again.
There is a chance that your form title is considered as spammy.
I would like to suggest replacing the {form_title} in your email subject and email body with something neutral. Please see the next animation.

Perrelet watches for sale
If you are looking for a Perrelet watch or Perrelet watches that are not listed below, feel free to contact us on 01442 345261 in the UK.
We can generally source most Perrelet watches including some discontinued Perrelet watches.
The origin of the Perrelet brand can be traced back to Abraham-Louis Perrelet who was a watch maker born in Switzerland in 1729. He is recognised in history as being a watch maker with exceptional ability and with inventing some first within the watch industry such as the first pedometer and the first self winding mechanism. His grandson learned a lot from him and followed in his footsteps becoming a very successful watch maker also and producing watches for royalty in Europe. The Perrelet brand did not receive the same attention and success as many of the other major watch manufactures and it is only in recent years that Perrelet has established itself within the watch industry. Today its range of Turbine watches are the cornerstone of the brand, a design which is unique to Perrelet watches and which sets them apart from other brands.

Former White House aide Dan Bartlett has drawn a MediaLand of attention for an interview he did with Texas Monthly, disputing the notion that the media wasn't aggressive enough with pre-war reporting.
White House correspondents have been tagged, unfairly, with not being tough enough on the administration and President Bush in the run-up to the war. If you go back and look, they asked all the right questions. The problem is, they're acting now like they have to be five times more critical, and I think they've gone overboard.But what really caught this writer's eye was Bartlett's characterization of conservative bloggers:
I mean, talk about a direct IV into the vein of your support. It's a very efficient way to communicate. They regurgitate exactly and put up on their blogs what you said to them. It is something that we've cultivated and have really tried to put quite a bit of focus on."Regurgitate?" Really? Coming from a former Bush aide? Oh no he din't. That's basically the equivalent of calling White House reporters 'stenographers.' (And we've learned you don't go there.)
I figured that this wouldn't sit well with right-wing bloggers. But I wasn't quite sure. So I pulled a Captain Renault and e-mailed some "usual suspects."
What did Glenn Reynolds of Instapundit think?
It reads like wishful thinking to me. The White House -- like the GOP generally -- has been extremely lame in dealing with the blogosphere, which is why the left blogosphere has done better since 2004. I get the usual PR stuff, but if they're doing anything more blog-sensitive than that, I haven't been seeing it.And Ed Morrissey of Captain's Quarters and political director of BlogTalkRadio, who opted to have a real-life phone conversation?
Us conservative bloggers are just thrilled to find out the White House has a communications department.And I heard back from Jonah Goldberg at National Review Online:
I guess my big thing here is the idea that we're a regurgitation device for the White House. If you look at the blogosphere's response to the Dubai ports story or Harriet Miers, it reveals that the blogosphere is its own entity.
Conservative bloggers have no problem being enthusiastic with the White House when we agree. But we don't regurgitate talking points.
Take for example spending. How many times has the conservative blogosphere scolded the White House for spending. We've been talking about this the entire time. They're not really conservative in the critical manner of expanding the government.
The notion that the conservative blogosphere does nothing but regurgitate is, on the face of it, ludicrous. Bartlett's characterization is so laughably false that it shows why this White House has done a lousy job of communication. If they think we're parroting their talking points, they're not reading us or checking their e-mail.
Partly it's because he's out of touch. And partly it's because he's going into he consulting business and he wants to be seen as a master, a guy who was the puppeteer of the blogosphere.
I don't blame the liberal bloggers for having a field day. We would have, if it was the other way around.
Eh. I don't think it's that big a deal.More bloggers' responses were cited at National Journal's blogroll.
Maybe "regurgitate" is a bad word, but I don't think he meant anything profound or disparaging by it. It is surely true that some conservative bloggers give a very favorable -- they would say "fair" -- hearing to the Administration. But I don't see anything wrong with blogers posting longer and more fleshed-out comments from the administration. Supposedly that's what newspapers and other outlets should want to do if they had the space, right? That's how I read Bartlett.
Some conservative bloggers don't dilute or parse or even mutilate the statements the way the New York Times or -- heh -- CBS sometimes might. Personally, I don't do much of that sort of thing. But I see nothing wrong with it. It's not like Hugh Hewitt or the guys at Powerline are incapable of criticizing the administration or being skeptical of what they're saying. I've seen them stand in opposition to the White House, Bush or Republicans in Congress plenty of times."
Another report from Blogistan has Washington Times White House correspondent Joe Curl getting downright nasty with a blogger who picked on him. According to a Daily Kos accounting
– the direct link is not safe for work, let alone many other environments – Curl fired back to an e-mail with salty words that would make George Carlin nod along.
When asked for comment on the Curl kerfuffle (Curlfuffle?), Washington Times Media Relations Manager Kate Brown e-mailed this defense:
This "blogger" called Joe Curl, a veteran reporter and a well-respected journalist, a dishonest hack and accused him of dubiously fixing numbers in his story. This coming from a website with an obvious liberal agenda.Wow. Dear readers, we're a long ways from Kumbaya here in MediaLand.
He questioned his character and Joe defended himself.
Funny how bloggers want to be seen as renegade journalists battling mainstream media from the edge, but when push comes to shove, the guy couldn't handle a heated tete-a-tete and instead he tattled to the virtual world.
If you can't stand the heat, it might be time to give back your rebel card.
Remember that old school adage about "Never pick a fight with someone who buys ink by the barrel?" The reason being that you wouldn't want to anger a columnist or journalist who could spend space and ink criticizing you publicly.
Remember that? The Internet and blogs have rendered that saying moot. It's a free-for-all out there. Keep your minds sharp and your laptop plugged in at all times.

Hello everyone, hope you are having a good holiday weekend. I know some of you may not read this till wednesday but it is somethign that is near and dear to my heart. The health and fitness of our children. As a single parent I am reminded that the health and fitness of my children is up to me, their parent. It is my job to see that they get healthy foods, plenty of fresh air and exercise, and end up as happy well adjusted adults. To me I feel that making sure they aren't overeating, eating because of boredom, or emotionally eating is a part of that. Insuring that my children get exercise of some form or fashion each day is important to their overall sense of well being as well. That is why the following article raises a mixture of emotions within me ranging from saddness to outright outrage.
Have a Happy 4th of July Everyone!
Kids and Weight Control: The Role Of Parents
by Jennifer Pitzi Hellwig, MS, RD
For parents of children with weight problems, it can be a confusing situation. Should you restrict their food or just leave well enough alone and hope they grow out of it? The key, say the experts, is to help your children adopt healthful habits that will stay with them through life.
A Growing Problem
Approximately 25% to 30% of U.S. children are overweight, and, according to government data, the prevalence of obesity among children and teens is growing.
Childhood weight problems often carry over into adulthood, and overweight adults are at greater risk for chronic diseases, such as diabetes and heart disease. Worse, conditions once associated only with adults, such as type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome (a major risk factor for stroke and heart attacks), are now increasingly being found in some children and adolescents.
Contributing Factors
Several factors may be to blame. In rare cases, a medical problem may be the cause. If you suspect your child has a weight problem or is developing one, take him to your pediatrician or family doctor for a full exam.
The most common factors in childhood obesity include the following:
Lack of exercise. Experts blame too much television, vomputer time, and video games, along with a decrease or complete elimination of physical education from many schools for the fact that many children simply do not get any daily exercise.
Consuming too many calories. Today's time-pressed families are relying more and more on convenience foods and fast foods, many of which are high in calories, especially from carbohydrates. High fat intake from burgers, fries, and pizza plays a role, but many kids are gulping down hundreds of calories a day in the form of high calorie sodas and sweetened juice drinks. "I've counseled kids who drink six to eight sodas or juice drinks per day," says Heidi Reichenberger, MS, RD, a Boston-based dietitian and spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association (ADA). "That's almost 1000 calories from drinks alone." Over-large serving portions at both restaurants and at home have also surely played a role as well.
Family history/genetics. Research has shown that children with overweight parents and/or siblings are more likely to be overweight themselves. While genes may play a role, it may also be that parents pass on unhealthful behaviors and habits to their children.
Dos and Don'ts For Parents
The best advice for parents is to help your kids eat healthfully, be active, and build self-esteem.
Here are some do's and don'ts to help you:
Be supportive. Kids need to know that you love and respect them unconditionally and that their weight does not define their self-worth. Kids who feel loved and confident are more likely to be able to make positive lifestyle changes and feel good about themselves while they're doing it.
Don't be the "food police." Watching over your kids like a hawk and creating a list of "forbidden foods" is a strategy likely to backfire, advises Reichenberger, who says that kids whose diets are severely restricted will often resort to sneaking food and even binging in private.
Teach your children about balanced nutrition. The whole family should have a basic understanding of what constitutes a healthful diet (whole grains, vegetables, fruits, lean meats and poultry, fish, low-fat dairy products, beans, nuts, and seeds). If you don't have a good understanding yourself, ask your doctor for a referral to a registered dietitian and take your children with you if they're old enough.
Involve the children in shopping, menu planning, and cooking. It's helpful for kids to be involved and feel like they have some control over their diet.
Have several healthy snacks on hand. It's normal for kids to get hungry between meals. Healthful snacks will keep them going throughout the day. Kid-friendly choices include apple slices with peanut butter, yogurt with granola, dried fruit and nuts, and pre-cut vegetable sticks with low-fat dip.
Don't use food as punishment or reward. Kids should understand that food is fuel for a healthy body, as well as a source of pleasure; associating food with punishment or reward may distort children's views of the role of food in their lives.
Have your kids eat their meals and snacks at the table. Kids (and adults) who eat while watching TV or doing other activities are more likely to overeat because they're not paying attention to how much they're eating.
Encourage Physical activity. This may be one of the most important things you can do for your kids, say the experts, because regular exercise is vital to weight control, as well as to health. While kid-centered activities like team sports or community activity programs are great, Reichenberger also recommends that parents exercise with their kids and make it a family affair, such as with walks after school or weekend hikes.
Don't give your children any weight-loss remedies or medicines, unless directed by your doctor. Many are not safe for children and could cause harmful side effects.
Promoting Healthful Habits For Life
The best advice for any family is to eat and enjoy healthful food together and to exercise together. Kids who learn healthful behaviors as part of a family lifestyle when they're young are much more likely to continue those healthful habits throughout the rest of their lives.

Although he probably had a proper name, this have not yet been revealed. He was a recurring character, though a minor one, whom Natsume usually came across when the kappa was dehydrated.
Natsume helped him by pouring water over him, so the kappa tried to help Natsume whenever he could. His name was not contained in the Yuujinchou.
He had a white disc on his head with body all green. His mouth beaklike is similar to that of duck.
At his back were turtle-like shell.
He was a kind spirit that willing to offer help to Natsume after he was saved twice by Natsume. When he caught some fish, he searched for Natsume to share it together.
Kappa or river-child is a youkai that found in Japanese culture. They are usually seen as a mischievous and trickster being. However, throughout the Natsume series, they were actually helpful to others, especially in this case, to Natsume.
He was also the one that informed Natsume about the evil exorcist that depriving other youkai's blood. He once mentioned that Natsume was capable person for knowing a lot of powerful youkai such as Misuzu and Benio.
Another Kappa?
Two kappas appeared in Episode 15, Melting into spring.

I'm trying to monitor some additional services that are running on an Win08-64-bit box. SW finds the box and inventories it with no errors, but when I go to software > services, the additional services don't appear to be in the list.
Not in the list = cannot setup monitor/alert as I understand it.
1) Is it possible that the services are not visible because they run w/ a named account, not system? - this doesn't make much sense to me
2) Assuming SW does something like a WMI catalog or a "net start" cmd to see the running services... I can use the network domain account that the Network Scan is using to attach to the box and perform a "net start" just to verify I could see the service and stop/start it... no issue there.
Any idea why these services would not be visible?

Just not detected maybe? Perhaps they weren't seen in the registry? What kind of services are they? Are they third party services?
Jan 4, 2011 at 3:15 UTC
Its really weird.. the inventory finds the installed software, so there's a WMI entry / registry entry for the software, but the services actually running the software don't show up in the Services list.
If I remotely manage the server in question:
- I can see the Service under Services pane in the MS Management console
- I can see the service using the cmd line "net start" (basically the same as above)
To answer your question, Alex3031, it is the MS ERP system Dynamics AX, which uses an Application Object Server/Service you have to keep an eye on.

Author | exchange4media News Service | Friday, Dec 16,2005 8:33 AM
The 'TNS Indian Travel Dossier 2005' on travel patterns and habits of the urban business and leisure travellers throw up some interesting information. Air travellers from small and medium enterprises and self-employed persons extensively search the Net for information on the destination, travel deals, etc, unlike those from the corporate segment.
While travellers cheques are now passé, credit card usage for overseas travel has gone up compared to domestic travel.
According to the TNS report, meetings and conferences are significant amongst corporates and to some extent among the self-employed segments. While trains still dominate the mode of travel, air travel is catching up and now accounts for 27 per cent of all local business travel. The choice is still dictated to a large extent by company policies, with the average trip duration being three to four days.
North India leads the way with a significantly higher travel incidence. While domestic business and leisure travel accounted for 11 per cent each of the travel incidence, overseas travel was 3 per cent each for business and domestic travel. While the overall overseas travel incidence may seem low, this figure represents a significant 25 per cent of all travel. Most travel was undertaken by people in the 26-40 age group, however, the average age was somewhat lower in the case of salaried employees.
"TNS has decided to track this sector closely over the coming years. With age profiles getting younger and travel intensity on the rise, all service providers to this boom sector, be they airlines, hotels or travel agents will need to focus a lot on building and differentiating their brands," said Ganapathy Subramanian, Director, TNS India.
The average age is marginally lower in the case of the corporate segment and also among travellers from the metros. A significant proportion of such travellers come from the IT and financial sectors. While cellphones are a near universal phenomenon, ownership/ usage of the Internet and credit cards is much higher in metros compared to other cities, though the share of travel from such cities is significant.
20 per cent of all air travel is now in business class, while the use of discount fare options is largely restricted to the corporate segment. This represents a business opportunity in the other segments.
While second AC is the predominant choice in rail travel, the self-employed segment uses first AC to a significant extent. Overall mode of travel seems to be more driven by network (air connections) and company policy rather than preference.
As in business travel, South East Asia is by far the most travelled destination for overseas leisure travellers, followed by the UK and the US. There is a relatively higher proportion of first-time travellers. Most trips are planned and package tours account for about a third of all such trips.
The study was conducted amongst 6,433 males from SEC A & B households up to the age of 55 years, working full time. The study also looked at involvement and commitment levels of customer to various airline and hotel brands using the Conversion Model (TNS business solution).

Not able to create PDF formAsked by aptusfinancial on June 27, 2016 at 03:44 PM
Hi there! I am trying to get our form into the page breaks pdf form, but when I click it the wheel just turns and turns with no progress. Is this a little glitch in the program? Are you able to email me one in the meantime? Thanks!
JotForm Support
Your form https://www.jotform.us/form/60534986605160 was very long with about 336 fields on it. It seems that the create PDF form tool was failing on your end due to the number of fields on the form.
But I tried it on my end and waited a bit more, and the PDF form was created after a while.
I did noted some misaligned fields on the pdf form version. You will need to modify the form form to properly set the pdf version.
Can you try waiting a bit more until the PDF was completed. It took about 5mins for me to complete.
Let us know if it did not work for you.

2015 Draft Reaction Blog, Round 3
Switching over now, you probably saw our Round Two coverage but to break things up a little we've moved over here to run down the third round with you all.
There's been some stunning picks so far and some teams have really caught us by surprise. But who will use the third round as the vehicle to make their statement? As ever we're going to give analysis on every single pick after our grading process ran the rule over 870 FBS game in the 2014 season.
Check us out on twitter and keep coming back as we analyze every draft pick.
99. Cincinnati Bengals
Paul Dawson, LB, TCU
Dawson is a great case study for how important workout numbers are. His tape is as good as any player at any position with him showing the kind of instincts that led to him leading the nation in defensive stops and run stop percentage. Cincinnati didn't have a huge need at linebacker but Dawson just represented too much value here.
98. New England Patriots
Geneo Grissom, ED, Oklahoma
Only 541 snaps on defense during the 2014 season but Grissom is one guy who really improved his draft stock with his Senior Bowl performance where he showed himself as far more natural going forward rather than going back on his heels. New England aren't likely to throw him in given the depth they have at end, but he does offer something a little different to their bigger edge rushers.
97. Kansas City Chiefs
Steven Nelson, CB, Oregon State
Sure tackling cornerback who didn't miss any tackles during the season and had the 10th highest overall grade of cornerbacks against the Power-5. A bit overly aggressive at times given how physical he plays the game and may lack the top end speed to go one on one with top wide receivers. Ultimately may end up playing inside.
96. Cleveland Browns
Xavier Cooper, ID, Washington State
Not quite as productive as Henry Anderson, Cooper did though have the fourth best productivity score rushing the passer against the Power-5 so it's easy to see why the Browns like him. He could quite easily latch onto a backup and subpackage role additionally, and completes a fantastic couple of days for the organization as they retooled their defensive line.
95. Washington Redskins
Matt Jones, RB, Florida
Didn't impress in 2014, earning a negative grade overall for his efforts. With such a deep draft class it feels odd to see Jones go before more talented players.
94. Green Bay Packers
Ty Montgomery, WR, Stanford
Is he a wide receiver or a more natural running back? Green Bay have plenty of time to find out because there's zero rush to force Montgomery onto the field before he's ready. Montgomery is fantastic with the ball in hand in space as evidenced by his 17 forced missed tackles on receptions.
93. Indianapolis Colts
Henry Anderson, ID, Stanford
First round tape but for whatever reason teams just let him fall and fall. Anderson just makes plays and what's more is he's got correctable flaws that mean he can be a better player than he showed at Stanford. Anderson was the most productive pass rusher from the defensive interior against Power-5 opposition and he should see plenty of action with the Colts.
92. Denver Broncos
Jeff Heuerman, TE, Ohio State
Earned the eighth highest blocking grade of all tight ends but was only targeted 21 times as a receiver which really limited his impact as a pass catcher. Denver, with Gary Kubiak, will be heavy users of tight ends so it wouldn't be a surprise if Heuerman was able to grab some rookie snaps.
91.Dallas Cowboys
Chaz Green, OT, Florida
Doug Free won't be a Cowboy forever and Dallas is clearly committed to maintaining a top quality line beyond his days with them. But is Green the best available option in this draft? He was far from dominant in the run game at Florida and had real problems in pass protection against Alabama. This is a tools pick that Dallas have plenty of time to develop.
90. Baltimore Ravens
Carl Davis, DI, Iowa
Capable of wreaking havoc at times or going missing when teams get multiple bodies on him. Davis has talent that suggests he should go higher than this, but didn't display that consistently. Still had the 11th highest grade of all interior defenders against the Power 5 and the Ravens always get production out of their guys on the line.
89. Minnesota Vikings
Danielle Hunter, ED, LSU
Came out a year early by the reckoning of most. Has all the natural strength in the world that allows him to be a force against the run but is a bit rudderless as a pass rusher and non-effective for the most part. Scheme didn't overly help him with so focused on playing the run and it showed up with the second highest run stop percentage amongst 4-3 defensive ends. Just did nothing as pass rusher (just 16 total pressures) so might struggle for playing time as a rookie.
88. St Louis Rams
Sean Mannion, QB, Oregon State
Mannion has the size and build you look for in a quarterback. It's just a shame his play doesn't quite match it. There are times he looks a useful prospect but you only need to see how he played against Oregon to start questioning what type of player Mannion will be in the pros.
87. Pittsburgh Steelers
Sammie Coates, WR, Auburn
One of those frustrating players someone is going to take a flyer on. Coates is big, strong and fast with an ability to get off press coverage but who can struggle to locate the deep ball. So close to being very good but not quite there. He's your classic round three gamble and Pittsburgh, with a young receiver group, is a great landing spot for him.
86. Arizona Cardinals
David Johnson, RB, Northern Iowa
Slightly odd pick here. We figured Arizona would be in the market for a pure running back but instead have got a guy who in a lot of ways is better receiving out of the backfield than running. There Johnson displays a good burst but you feel like with his size he could be more physical given the level of competition.
85. Cincinnati Bengals
Tyler Kroft, TE, Rutgers
Is this the final nail in the coffin of the Bengals career of Jermaine Gresham? Kroft is a good athlete for his size but it was his blocking that really set him apart and likely what the Bengals see in him. There he had the third highest grade against Power-5 opposition and promises to be a good complement to Tyler Eiffert.
84. Philadelphia Eagles
Jordan Hicks, LB, Texas
Didn't really distinguish himself with his 2014 play though he was impressive enough in coverage to earn the ninth highest grade in coverage against Power-5 opposition. Will likely have to make a mark on special teams to get himself noticed this year with so many guys ahead of him on the depth chart.
83. San Diego Chargers
Craig Mager, CB, Texas State
A multi dimensional player who earned positive grades in coverage, run defense and rushing the passer without truly excelling in any regard. As with most non-Power 5 players you have to be concerned with the level of competition. Especially that he didn't dominate against players you might expect he did.
82. New York Jets
Lorenzo Mauldin, ED, Louisville
The rush on Louisville players continues! Mauldin was an incredibly productive player this past year and ended up with a production grade that was fifth best overall of all edge defenders. He's more than just a feel good story. playing with strong hands and a relentless motor which limits his lack of speed showing up on tape. The Jets lack young edge rushers and Mauldin could quite easily develop into the long term Calvin Pace replacement.
81. Buffalo Bills
John Miller, OG, Louisville
The big mauler played at left and right guard for Louisville and given the lack of talent ahead of him has a real shot at playing time in Buffalo. Not agile enough for a zone scheme, this might be a good fit for him but feels a little early for a player who struggles sustaining his blocks. Length caused him some real problems and while he has some experience pulling, he wasn't completely convincing there. Much better in the run game than in pass protection where 21 quarterback disruptions allowed are far too many given the level of opposition.
80. Detroit Lions
Alex Carter, CB, Stanford
Different to the en vogue corner in that he's much better in zone. Will struggle with change of direction and isn't the quickest, so naturally had problems with shiftier receivers which resulted in a poor production grade (he was only 43rd against Power 5 opposition). He won't be asked to play this year you'd imagine and that might be for the best.
79. San Francisco 49ers
Eli Harold, ER, Virginia
Who knows what will become of Aldon Smith so it never hurts to have some insurance. Harold is raw and arguably would have been better served staying in college for another year but he did flash his talent. At times. Persistent if not productive, a lack of strength shows up but he can get to the corner quickly and that is something to work with. Ninth highest pass rushing grade amongst edge defenders against the Power-5.
78. New Orleans Saints
P.J. Williams, CB, Florida State
Incredibly frustrating player. Looks good when he has his hands on a wide receiver, but as soon as he loses contact he's lost the receiver. Does have a great recovery burst to help cover for this but is so inconsistent and missing so many tackles you really wonder what type of player you're getting. Very feisty and always puts his head in, as evidenced by his 33 defensive stops (second most of all cornerbacks). Good fit to sit in New Orleans and learn from guys like Brandon Browner and Keenan Lewis.
77. Cleveland Browns
Duke Johnson, RB, Miami
Cleveland have added another talent to the mix of a muddled backfield with the selection of Johnson. He has just as much chance as his established peers of getting carries, especially after posting our second highest overall production grade among draft eligible backs this year. Johnson offers something in the passing game, perhaps more so than any back currently on the Browns roster, and worst case scenario we could see him finding his niche there.
76. Kansas City Chiefs
Chris Conley, WR, Georgia
Can you say workout warrior? Didn't impress our staff who thought for all his speed he wasn't nearly as handy when a defender got a hand near him. Did finish the season stronger than he started it and has the tools you want to develop. Would have liked to see him targeted a little more on deeper passes after he turned 18 targets into 10 receptions with six touchdowns.
75. New Orleans Saints
Garrett Grayson, QB, Colorado State
Is this the successor to Drew Brees? If so he's going to have to take a giant leap forward after finishing only 10th amongst draft eligible quarterbacks in our production passer grades. And that despite a lower level of competition. On the plus side was a master using play action, with a 140.3 NFL QB rating leading the entire nation.
74. New York Giants
Owa Odighizuwa, ED, UCLA
Pass blockers, don't let this guy pick up a head of steam. He's devastating converting speed to power. Much better outside the tackle compared to when he was used more inside against Texas. Because of his use is something of an underrated pass rusher despite finishing 10th amongst his 4-3 defensive end peers with a 10.2 pass rushing productivity score.
73. Atlanta Falcons
Tevin Coleman, RB, Indiana
The Falcons haven't had this much speed at running back since the days of Jerious Norwood. Coleman is a true home run hitter who isn't all that elusive and won't make defenders miss, but will force them into taking bad angles and making them pay. 57% of his yardage came on runs that went at least 15 yards which was the biggest in the nation. Like we said, he will make you pay if you give him space.
72. St Louis Rams
Jamon Brown, OL, Louisville
In our Round 2 blog we mentioned Rob Haverstein might have a clear path to starting at right tackle for the Rams. Well hold on a second there as St Louis have double dipped. In truth this is more of a project pick with Brown, who flipped between left and right tackle at Louisville, potentially ending up at guard but he was certainly the most impressive Cardinals lineman last year. His production grade was 15th overall amongst all tackles and he was particularly strong his run blocking. He doesn't have the highest ceiling but his floor is considerably more elevated than some who have gone before him.
71. Chicago Bears
Hroniss Grasu, C, Oregon
The Bears aren't exactly stacked at center with Will Montgomery currently pencilled in to start so Grasu has a real chance to start. Referred to by some as a poor man's Jason Kelce, Grasu is an extremely fluid athlete but is a little undersized and it shows with how much help he got at Oregon. Real zone blocking center who had the highest run blocking grade of Power-5 centers in a scheme that was a little friendly in this regard.
70. Houston Texans
Jaelen Strong, WR, Arizona State
A lot of teams are going to be disappointed they let Strong slip to the third. Sure he can look a little lazy with his routes but his ability to win at the catch point and his talent for creating after the catch are top end. He's got room to get better and we say that despite him having the fifth highest grade of all wide receivers against Power 5 teams. He's landing in a spot that offers real playing time potential.
69. Seattle Seahawks
Tyler Lockett, WR, Kansas State
Sleeper alert. Lockett doesn't have the kind of size that scares you, but he plays a lot bigger. Only Amari Cooper graded higher from a production point of view in 2014 and has the ability to hurt you all over the field. It's no surprise that Seattle traded up to get him given what he is capable of doing. Will beat teams deep as evidenced by his 559 yards on deep passes that were third most of all wideouts.
68. Oakland Raiders
Clive Walford, TE, Miami
Not the blocker that Maxx Williams is but a comparable (if not slightly better) athlete. Walford is excellent picking up yards after the catch but can't be counted on as much of a blocker. Led the nation with his 3.26 yards per route run figure amongst tight ends. Derek Carr is smiling tonight.
67. Jacksonville Jaguars
A.J. Cann, OG, South Carolina
Cann has some ways to go before he's the finished article but he's an extremely powerful blocker when he latches on, making it extremely hard for defenders to shed him. A joy to watch in that regard but nearly as bad in pass protection where he is far too lungy and something of a liability. Not ideal in the current NFL. Still that second best grade against Power-5 teams for run blocking amongst left guards is something to work with.
66. Tennessee Titans
Jermiah Poutasi, OT, Utah
A bit of a reach at this stage. Struggles to anchor, not great with his feet and extremely lungy in the run game. Watching Poutasi it was hard to see where he would fit in at the NFL level. Going to need a lot of work to get to a stage of being able to start because while he has the length, he doesn't do anything with it. 33 Power-5 tackles had a better production grade than him in 2015 that were draft eligible.
65. Indianapolis Colts
D'Joun Smith, CB, Florida Atlantic
Didn't grade particularly well despite playing against inferior competition which is always a concern. Shy of six foot he might profile better in the slot but only spent eight snaps there in 2014. Does get stuck in against the run with the fourth highest grade of cornerbacks outside the Power-5 in run defense.

A low rate only means paying your loan off sooner
Leading online mortgage broker, eChoice says while both variable and fixed interest rates are the lowest they've been in years, borrowers should still look at maintaining their current repayments.
The Reserve Bank's statement was clear, omitting from their release that 'rates will remain under review', a signal for borrowers that this possibly is a one off move and not to depend on any further rate cuts.
Combined with the Housing Industry Associations' statistics, house prices fell the most in almost three years last quarter. Leading up to Christmas, borrowers should put the focus on their mortgage - whether it's paying off the loan sooner or adding value to their home through renovations, according to eChoice Director Mark Flack.
However for those shopping around or refinancing, there are still some great savings to be had and the online space is now more aggressive than ever.
According to Mr Flack, in the month of October, "more than one third of eChoice's pre-approvals chose an 'online lender' versus a traditional bank or non-bank. Interest rates are no now far more competitive than ever before and the difference of a variable rate can be more than 1%."
If you take an average loan size of $300,000, that's a saving of over $100 per month and when accumulated you can expect to cut years off the loan.
The eChoice panel offers a variety of lenders and compares not only the major lenders as well as online. "We're seeing a real trend with online lenders, for example, Super Rate has been on the panel since November last year and has remained almost one per cent less than the major banks since its launch."
Super Rate is offering a no fee variable rate of 6.70% p.a., while it's 1 and 3 year fixed rate is 6.19% p.a. making it one of the lowest rates in today's market.
According to Mr. Flack, eChoice borrowers are savvier than ever before and have remained loyal to the online model which has been available since 1998. It's simple and the time saving process means the client does not have to see a broker. The application from pre-approval to settlement can be handled via phone and email.

Nowadays Bollywood Filmmakers are quite serious about their work and job so much that they can go any length to get the perfect shot. Yes, Hindi film industry is no less than their foreign counterparts who might not think twice before spending a bomb to get things right.
Here in the article, we are listing 5 occasions where the Bollywood filmmakers have spent a bomb to get the perfect shot. Have a look:
Rs 55 lakh Spent on Katrina Kaif's Hair Color in Fitoor
This was recently a hot topic on social media where people discussed how a huge number of underprivileged kids would have actually been benefited from the 55 Lakh spent on something temporary like a hair color. Still confused how a hair color can cost this huge sum?
Well, Kat wanted a perfect shade of red for Fitoor and so she zeroed in on a London-based hairstylist. Her jet-setting between India and UK along with the plush stay, and hair color apparently cost the producers of Fitoor a huge amount of Rs 55 lakhs. Now don't you feel that the 10,000 rupees you spent on straightening was absolutely fine? Do tell your mother the same. Sigh!
Rs 48 lakh Spent on Deepika Padukone's jewels in Bollywood Film Bajirao Mastani
Playing a historical character isn't easy. No wonder, you have to wear a lot of heavy jewelries and accessories. While Deepika Padukone did a stunning job as Mastani in Bajirao Mastani, it is believed that in one particular scene the actress as half Hindu and half Persian Mastani was seen wearing jewelry worth Rs. 45 Lakh. Makes sense as all her jewelry were sourced from a heritage jewelry shop, the Delhi-based jewelers called Shri Hari Diagems, a-226-year-old establishment. The total cost of her jewelry in the film was Rs. 5 crore.
Rs 65 lakh was Spent on Akshay Kumar's Turban in Singh is Bliing
The movie poster of Singh is Bliing exhibited a lot of bliing. No wonder, the Khiladi actor loves to do everything in style. Don't be surprised when I tell you the Turban which Akshay sported in the poster cost the producer a whooping Rs.65 lakh. Wondering, how can a turban be so costly? Well, it was a diamond-studded turban. Missed seeing them? Well, I missed noticing it too. Anyways…
Rs 75 lakh Spent on Sonakshi Sinha's Lehenga:
The song 'Ye mera lehenga badda hai mehenga' suits Sonakshi Sinha perfectly who didn't shy away from wearing a lehenga of Rs. 75 Lakh in the film Tevar opposite Arjun Kapoor. Yes, the same lehenga that she is wearing in the song 'Radha Nache Gi'. Now that makes us reconsider the budget of our wedding lehenga – don't you think so?
Rs. Four and Half Crore Spent on SRK's per Costume in Ra One
Shah Rukh Khan's most ambitious project Ra One was a talk of the town for various reasons including the budget of the film. While the film bombed at the box-office, let me tell you the costume worn by Shah Rukh Khan in the film as Ra One was Rs 4.5 crore per costume and there were 20 such costumes. Shocking? Well, that's how the actors, directors and producers meet their perfection level in Bollywood these days.
What are your thoughts on Bollywood spending a ton on these aspects – Yay or simply Nay?

It's that time of year! New York Fashion Week happened at the beginning of February and everyone is buzzing about what's hot for spring. The consensus is this: 2016 is the year for no holds barred. Designers are stepping outside boxes and having fun–and the looks are more translatable to the street than ever before. Here is a summary of Vogue's official take on this year's spring hotness.
1. Anything goes. Really–being you is in. Nude lips or black gothic lips–it all works this year. Experimenting with makeup is all the rage this year. Create a mask with your colored eye shadow, smother your lips in out there color or use silver blush to brighten your cheeks.
2. Not into edgy? Warm and fuzzy curls are working, too. In fact, as a side note, there is a hashtag devoted to natural hair (#naturalhair).
3. Braids. Kim Kardashian has done it again with her plaited slash corn rowed hair. It's a wearable street style that anyone can wear–low maintenance moms or high-fashion millenials. This was seen both on the runway and in attendance.
4. We love the fact that gym hair is cool right now. Messy is perfection, so pull your hair in a low bun, or tucked ponytail and let the front hang loose around your face. And you now have runway hair.
5. Bleach and block. Bleached out hair is back, but we like it long and sleek. Go curly and you may cross the line from high fashion to high end hooker. The block is the color block eyebrows. Last year is was bleached out brows, but this year, it's a dark, rich color–they should almost look fake if you're going for it. We admit though, that this is harder to pull off "off" the runway.

Heavy metal phytoextraction is a soil remediation technique which implies the optimal use of plants to remove contamination from soil. Plants must thus be tolerant to heavy metals, adapted to soil and climate characteristics and able to take up large amounts of heavy metals. Their roots must also fit the spatial distribution of pollution. Their different root systems allow plants to adapt to their environment and be more or less efficient in element uptake. To assess the impact of the root system on phytoextraction efficiency in the field, we have studied the uptake and root systems (root length and root size) of various high biomass plants (Brassica juncea, Nicotiana tabacum, Zea mays and Salix viminalis) and one hyperaccumulator (Thlaspi caerulescens) grown in a Zn, Cu and Cd contaminated soil and compared them with total heavy metal distribution in the soil. Changes from year to year have been studied for an annual (Zea mays) and a perennial plant (Salix viminalis) to assess the impact of the climate on root systems and the evolution of efficiency with time and growth. In spite of a small biomass, T. caerulescens was the most efficient plant for Cd and Zn removal because of very high concentrations in the shoots. The second most efficient were plants combining high metal concentrations and high biomass (willows for Cd and Zn and tobacco for Cu and Cd). A large cumulative root density/aboveground biomass ratio (LA/B), together with a relative larger proportion of fine roots compared to other plants seemed to be additional favourable characteristics for increased heavy metal uptake by T. caerulescens. In general, for all plants correlations were found between L A/B and heavy metal concentrations in shoots (r=0.758***, r=0.594***, r=0.798*** (P<0.001) for Cd, Cu and Zn concentrations resp.). Differences between years were significant because of variations in climatic conditions for annual plants or because of growth for perennial plants. The plants exhibited also different root distributions along the soil profile: T. caerulescens had a shallow root system and was thus best suited for shallow contamination (0.2 m) whereas maize and willows were the most efficient in colonising the soil at depth and thus more applicable for deep contamination (0.7 m). In the field situation, no plant was able to fit the contamination properly due to heterogeneity in soil contamination. This points out to the importance and the difficulty of choosing plant species according to depth and heterogeneity of localisation of the pollution.

The deterioration of water environment in an urban area is a result of bringing not purified storm water from sewage system to water. The problem of sewage is solved in many cities but superficial flows, from urban areas and from streets, which are carried through sewage systems, cause local pollution in sewage receivers. This makes that stormwater be treated as "clean". The results of research carried out in different drainage areas contradict this idea. The number of factors and effects causes stormwater to have a different quality. A correct estimation of stormwater quality can be made on the basis of direct research on drainage areas and mathematical models. The basis of knowing a profile of stormwater quality is: research carried out in different areas and the identification of factors that influence the pollution degree.

A hilly to mountainous watershed in Chonju in central Korea does not receive acid rain (average pH: 6.2); however, the stream water in the granite watershed is slightly acidic (6.4–6.7) and contains a low concentration of Ca compared to the stream water in sedimentary and volcanic rock watersheds (6.8–7.6). Although the concentrations of Ca and Sr and the 87Sr/86Sr ratio in the stream water change in accordance with the watershed geology, the stream 87Sr/86Sr ratios are closer to the 87Sr/86Sr ratios of rain than to those of the substrate rocks, suggesting the selective but sluggish weathering of Ca-containing minerals neutralizes acid. The concentrations of trace metals (As, Cr, Cu, Mo, Ni, Pb) in the water are lower than those in rain and less dependent on the watershed geology, indicating that they originated dominantly from the atmosphere. This result is consistent with the stream water having Pb isotope ratios close to that of rain but distinct from that of the rocks. We assume that the soil pool of exchangeable ions dominantly contains atmospherically derived heavy metals, which are subsequently discharged into streams. It is likely that the poor acid-neutralizing capacity of granite makes the aquatic systems in the granite watershed in Chonju sensitive to atmospheric acidification.

Urban transportation activities generate a wide gradation of anthropogenic solids with varying physical and chemical properties. These solids accumulatein urban highway snow and remain as residual deposition material after the melting and recession of the snow from the pavement shoulder. This study analyzed the physical characteristics of these residuals and the associatedheavy metals for 10 urban highway sites located throughout metropolitan Cincinnati. Results from the residuals analyses indicate that for all sites particle gradations ranged from greater than 5000-μm to less than 25-μm with a mean d50 of 1225-μm. Specific gravity (ρsg) of residual solids ranged from 2.5 to 3.2 as evaluated for intervals across thegradations, with the lower specific gravity associated with particles less than 100-μm. For each gradation, specific surface area (SSA) generally increased with decreasing particle size while the predominance of total surface area (SA) was associated with the coarser size fractions. Cumulativeanalysis for Pb, Cu, Cd and Zn associated with snow residuals indicated that more than 50% of the heavy metal mass was associated with particles greaterthan 250-μm and more than 80% was associated with particles greater than 50-μm. Results provide guidance for management of urban snow residuals and design of treatment strategies focused on these residuals.

The widespread and unconcerned use of chemicals in the past has led to an accumulation of pollutants in our environment. Numerous sites are polluted with a mixture of organic chemicals and heavy metals. The future use of these sites and the safe consumption of groundwater from these areas depends on our ability to assess risk by determining the bioavailability of trace levels of pollutants in the respective soil solutions. Soil eluates containing heavy metals in mixture as well as pure heavy metals in aqueous solution were added to a spruce cell culture to set up such a test system.
The present study aims at evaluating the response of cultured spruce cells to heavy metals in aqueous solution, and at characterizing these basic cellular responses as potential biomarkers.
In order to characterize cell reactions toward heavy metals, spruce cell cultures were incubated with CdSO4 (50 to 500 µM), Na2HAsO4 (1.5 to 80 µM) or PbCl2 (10 to 150 µM). Alternatively, the cells were incubated with a standard heavy metal mixture containing 80µM Na2HAsO4, 150 µM CdSO4 and 150 µM PbCl2 in medium and with aqueous original soil eluates. Measurement of oxidative stress, antioxidants and basic detoxification enzymes involved in plant defence reactions were performed with the treated cells.
After 5 hrs of incubation, the onset of a strong oxidative burst was observed. H2O2 concentrations exceeded 40 µM in the culture media after 20 hrs. Concomitantly, glutathione levels showed drastic changes indicating the influ-ence of the metals and/or the H2O2 on antioxidative systems. Following cadmium treatment, GSH and GSSG were elevated by 50 and 200% above controls. Whereas arsenic doubled GSSG levels, treatment with lead did not cause significant changes. However, a mixture of the metals decreased both metabolites by 50%. The effect of the metals was concentration-dependent and disappeared at high concentrations. Furthermore, strong induction of glutathione S-transferase (GST) subunits was observed and, although no novel subunit was expressed, the rise of a new GST isoform occurred. The most potent inducer of plant defence reactions is cadmium, followed by arsenate and lead in descending order of effectiveness. Counter ions seem to play an important role, e.g. lead chloride influenced the investigated parameters much more than lead acetate.
The investigated metals activate gene expression through signal transduction pathways previously not associated with these metals, which points to new end points for resistance and toxicity testing. Especially a monitoring of GST subunit behaviour together with quantifying the oxidative burst seem to be promising for a biomonitoring concept. The close regulation of plant answers observed may facilitate the setup of an integrated biotest for heavy metal pollution that could be based on enzymological as well as proteome data.
Heavy metals cause stress to plant cells and elicit a whole range of answers, although specific for individual metal species. The differences observed in plant answers are suitable to distinguish between metals bioavailable in soil eluates and water samples, however only at concentrations in the µM range. It will be necessary to evaluate the effects on the RNA and transcript level. We recommend that similar plant metabolic end points and enzyme reactions be screened for their suitability as biotest systems.

Short descriptions and main results of two modelling studies concerning the impact of atmospheric deposition of several heavy metals and organic compounds on soil quality are presented. The results indicate that present levels of atmospheric deposition of some of these compounds may lead to concentrations in European soils that are higher than permitted by environmental quality criteria such as Dutch Target Values or Maximum Permissible Concentrations. From both studies, the critical load concept appears to be useful for assessing the environmental impact of diffuse sources on soil quality.

Industrial wastewater is often contaminated with heavy metals and must undergo expensive and elaborate treatment. A new, environmentally friendly process, which allows both metals and water to be reused, has been developed. It comprises the following three process stages: firstly, a metal bonding agent (BA) is added to the wastewater to bind the heavy metal; secondly, the loaded BA is separated by ultrafiltration/microfiltration or a new hybrid process involving flotation and membrane filtration; and thirdly, the BA is regenerated. The first results from the characterisation of selected BAs (synthetic hydrotalcites and synthetic zeolites) in terms of their bonding kinetics, maximum loading capacity and regeneration potential are presented.

Estimation of the labile or available metal content of soils relies extensively on the use of chemical-extraction techniques. However, where interest is focused on only one or two elements that have more than one isotope, an alternative approach is to use isotope-dilu-tion analysis and measure E- or L-values. The E-value is an isotopic estimate of the labile metal content of the soil. It can be established by suspending a soil in water, adding an isotope tracer, and then measuring the isotope content of the solution phase after equilibra-tion. The labile metal content of a soil may also be measured by growing plants in soil to which an isotope of the metal of interest has been added. The isotopic signature within the plant tissue provides an estimate of the labile metal content of the soil and is referred to as the L-value. The L-value is a biological estimate of the labile metal pool. The use of isotopes to determine E- and L-values is described here, with an emphasis on the use of stable isotopes.

The incidence of the solid/liquid ratio on thesolubilization of heavy metals from a polluted riversediment was assessed by batch experiments. Thepercentage of solubilized metal increases stronglywhen the concentration of the sediment-watersuspension decreases from 50 to 0.1 g L-1. Thissolubilization behavior is described by a simpleequilibrium desorption model on the association of themetals and sediment. The association constantscalculated with this model indicate the affinitybetween the metals and the sediment (Pb > Cu > Zn> Cd). If polluted river sediments are in situresuspended, the decrease of the solid/liquid ratioassociated to this natural event could provoke theremobilization of metals trapped in sediments.

Experiments on bacterial leaching of heavy metals from aerobically stabilized surplus activated sludge at the Bortnichi aeration plant in Kiev have been conducted with addition of FeSO4 • 7H2O as a stimulant of iron-oxidizing bacteria. The mechanism of heavy metal leaching involving the ferrous iron oxidation by bacteria with subsequent formation of Fe(OH)3 was confirmed. This process is accompanied by the reduction of pH level of wastewater sludge that results in leaching of heavy metals.

Is it a turn off if a girl wears guy shirts all the time? I'm one to be comfortable in my band tees everyday, but I have always wondered if guys thought about it.
Most Helpful Guy
I think it's kind of funny how anything that isn't cut to be body-hugging is labeled as guy clothing. Girls aren't allowed to wear loose fitting clothing? There's nothing guy about band t-shirts. Most casual guys' clothes are pretty gender-neutral. Just most girls would rather wear clothes tailored to hug their body and show off their curves.22|00|0
