Sound systems
Systems / Edge details / Installation
ASTM E 1130 - Standard test method for objective measurement of Speech Privacy in open offices using the Articulation Index.
Active acoustics Sound - Electronically generated background sound of a specified level and frequency content, that is introduced into occupied environments to provide masking of intrusive noises and to enhance speech privacy.
Amplifier - An electronic device used in sound system applications to convert a low level signal such as from a microphone or CD player into a high-power signal (rated in watts) capable of powering a loudspeaker to a high sound level.
Analog - In sound system applications, an analog electrical signal represents the measured sound level in its exact continuous form. Likewise, an analog device is an electronic device that processes analog signals in their continuous form.
Directivity Index - A measure of the angular direction of the sound radiation from a loudspeaker, presented as a dB level either higher or lower than that which would be radiated by a spherical sound source.
Dispersion - Refers to the way in which sound spreads outward from a loudspeaker in a sound systems application. Dependent on the directivity index and the distance away from the speaker.
Exciter - The electro-mechanical device which converts an electrical signal from the amplifier into a mechanical vibration of the loudspeaker radiator, causing a sound wave to be produced with the same characteristics as the electrical signal. Also called a transducer.
Octave - A frequency interval wherein the higher frequency is twice the lower frequency.
Octave Band - The audio frequency range is generally separated into octave bands as a matter of convenience, wherein each specific band is represented by its center frequency, e.g. 63 Hz, 125 Hz, 250 Hz, 500 Hz 1 kHz, 2 kHz, 4 kHz, 8 kHz, and 16 kHz, which cover most of the audible frequency range.
Ohm - Unit of electrical resistance; e.g. most loudspeakers are typically 8 ohms.
Pink Noise - Electronically generated sound that has equal energy in each octave band; typically used as the basis for the post-filtered signal used as masking sound.
Polar Pattern - The graphical representation of the coverage of a loudspeaker at various frequencies.
Privacy Index (PI) - A measure of speech privacy, or lack of speech intelligibility, where the PI is calculated from the Articulation Index (AI) according to the following: PI = (1 - AI) * 100%.
Processor - A general term used in sound system applications to describe an electronic device that may have the following functions: signal generation, signal conditioning, equalization, and mixing.
Sound Masking - The process by which masking sound is implemented to cover unwanted or intrusive sound (i.e. speech, equipment noise, etc.) and to enhance speech privacy.
Sound Spectrum - A representation of a sound wave (time varying pressure wave) showing the frequency content and amplitude of the sound over the audio frequency range.
Speech Privacy - Refers to the lack of speech intelligibility from adjacent talkers. Several levels of speech privacy are defined in the ASTM standards, from Confidential privacy (meaning speech sounds can be heard but not understood), to Normal privacy (meaning that speech can be occasionally heard and understood but is generally non-intrusive), to Poor privacy (wherein all adjacent speech can be heard and understood). These levels can be related to ranges of PI representing each level of speech privacy.
Transformer Tap - Refers to the power setting available on a step-down transformer (e.g. 1 watt, 2 watt, 4 watt, etc ) used in high voltage distributed sound systems (e.g. 70v, 50v, and 25v amplifier systems).
Volt - Unit of potential difference or electromotive force. One volt is the potential difference needed to produce one ampere of current through a resistance of one ohm. Voltage is the driving force throughout a sound system from the microphone input to the speaker terminals.
Watt - Unit of electrical power required to do work at the rate of one joule per second. One watt of power is expended when one ampere of direct current flows through a resistance of one ohm. The power capability of amplifiers and loudspeakers is given in watts, which relate to both the voltage driving the system and current handling capabilities of the devices.
White Noise - Electronically generated sound that has equal energy at each frequency so that the octave band level increases by 3 dB for each increase in octave; white noise is typically perceived to sound "hissy" compared to pink noise.

BUNNELL, Fla. - A 60-year-old, wheelchair-bound man was thrown on the floor and robbed late Thursday night during a home invasion in Bunnell, deputies said.
The man told deputies that at about 11 p.m., four men entered his home on Espanola Road with an aluminum bat, threw him out of his wheelchair, kicked and poked him in the head and ransacked his house.
The suspects stole three nonoperational shotguns and the man's wallet. The victim said none of his medications was stolen.
After the suspects left his home, the man pulled himself up into his wheelchair and called the Flagler County Sheriff's Office, deputies said.
Deputies looked for the suspect in the immediate area of the home, but were unable to locate them.
The man was treated at the scene for an injury to his foot that occurred when a suspect stepped on him. He refused transport to the hospital.
Detectives urge anyone with information about the incident to call FCSO at 386-586-4801 or make an anonymous tip to Crime Stoppers at 888-277-8477.

Yummy!This hairspray has just enough hold to keep my fine, curly hair manageable and still soft. I only use about ten pumps on my waist-length hair - too much makes it crunchy. The smell is the best part - it's just like a grape popsicle. (I once bought a bottle in South Carolina that smelled more like pineapple!) One word of caution - it works much better on hair that's still wet. If I use it once my h...read moreair has mostly dried, it makes it somewhat frizzy. Overall, this spray works great, and the smell almost guarantees compliments. — 7 years, 5 months agoaDivineMadness | 3 reviews

My Reasons for Reporting This


text:
The Fair Housing Act, as amended in 1988, prohibits housing discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, disability, familial status, and national origin. Its coverage includes private housing, housing that receives Federal financial assistance, and State and local government housing. It is unlawful to discriminate in any aspect of selling or renting housing or to deny a dwelling to a buyer or renter because of the disability of that individual, an individual associated with the buyer or renter, or an individual who intends to live in the residence. Other covered activities include, for example, financing, zoning practices, new construction design, and advertising.
The Fair Housing Act requires owners of housing facilities to make reasonable exceptions in their policies and operations to afford people with disabilities equal housing opportunities. For example, a landlord with a "no pets" policy may be required to grant an exception to this rule and allow an individual who is blind to keep a guide dog in the residence. The Fair Housing Act also requires landlords to allow tenants with disabilities to make reasonable access-related modifications to their private living space, as well as to common use spaces (the landlord is not required to pay for the changes). The Act further requires that new multifamily housing with four or more units be designed and built to allow access for persons with disabilities. This includes accessible common use areas, doors that are wide enough for wheelchairs, kitchens and bathrooms that allow a person using a wheelchair to maneuver, and other adaptable features within the units.
Complaints of Fair Housing Act violations may be filed with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
For more information or to file a complaint, contact:

Sedos Presents THE EUROSEDOS SONG CONTEST 2014 as Part of Summer Festival, 7/1-5
Sedos, the City of London's premiere amateur theatre company, presents The Eurosedos Song Contest 2014 - Strictly NOT winners as part of its July Summer Festival.
In 2005 Deryck High and Pedro Hume-Rodriguez created, wrote and directed a fantastic show based on The Eurovision Song Contest. It was a celebration of 100 years of Sedos and 50 years of Eurovision, featuring 18 previous Eurovision winning songs.
Their aim was to present these songs as near to the original performances as possible - costumes, hair, movement, dancing and languages had to be just right! The show was designed to be akin to a live TV show being broadcast all over the world, with glamorous hosts and a voice-over commentary by Sir Terry. The big twist in our show was that 75 members of the audience were arranged as 15 different countries and their votes were cast to a presenter and the giant scoreboard, in traditional Eurofashion, to determine the winner!
The Eurosedos Song Contest 2005 - The Live Final was such a huge success with cast and audiences alike that, two years later, the team wrote a follow-up: The Eurosedos Song Contest 2007 - The Battle, in which six winners from the 2005 show returned to battle it out with 12 more Eurovision winners. After featuring 30 previous Eurovision winners, it seemed the team had exhausted the idea. Until now... Sedos' 2014 even-more spectacular Eurosedos show will showcase Eurovision songs which did NOT win, but maybe should have! Seven decades of Eurovision - classic performances for Euro fans and cheesy numbers for the non-Euro folk!
Director Deryck says: "The voting countries are arranged in groups of five, so why not get a team together? One of your team will go before a camera and cast your country's votes in true Eurovision style. You'll have a ball! Who wins? You decide!"
Tickets: sedos.co.uk; twitter: @sedos; facebook: facebook.com/sedostheatre
The Eurosedos Song Contest 2014 - Strictly NOT Winners: 1-5 July 2014.
All performances at the Bridewell Theatre, Bride Lane, London EC4Y 8EQ.
Tuesday to Saturday evenings at 7.30pm; Saturday matineé at 3pm.

Stanford Lively Arts Wine Series
Chen Design Associates, San Francisco, California, 2008
For several seasons, Stanford Lively Arts held a series of wine-tasting events in conjunction with certain performances as a way of thanking donors for their philanthropic support. Yet awareness and attendance were quite poor. With the invitations, we saw a previously untapped potential for the artwork, materials and production methods to create a more intimate sensibility—framing the events as opulent and exclusive but also highly personal. To this end, we employed hand-stamped elements, textured papers and letterpress printing. The results: increased visibility and buzz, a record-setting 30% response rate, and more funding for the arts.

The new design is OK yawn. But why shove forums all the way to the bottom, below the fold?
For me, that's the most important part. It's good to see some experts still contributing to the forums, answering questions, and helping people.
But what's the name of that other help site?
It' possible the link to the forums will go to the top of the main site, but we'll see.
It's not clear what you mean.
Don't worry, the forums will be added to the top bar in due time. They didn't want it up there in case the forum upgrade backfired (or the new design).
In my limited time here, I've always found that the advice offered in your forums far outweighs the drivel in the "articles" on your main page. Now you shift the focus away from the forums and towards the drivel. A step in the wrong direction, IMHO.
Everyone has an alternative when looking for an answer. They will probably use that. That's what I mean.
I doubt this is the case. The new forums held despite the new design "backfire" a couple of weeks ago.
Well, I did hear it from good authority that the link will be moved. So I'm fairly confident it will happen.
That's an amazing statement. I really enjoy a lot of the posts on SitePoint. There is plenty of variety and lots of useful information and food for thought.
Each to his own, Ralph. I really do appreciate your efforts in the forums. Please take this rant as constructive criticism.
Sure there's variety and food for thought but I'm not too sure about the "useful information" part.
I only read the articles that relate to my business. That's usually Georgina, Craig and John. Ho-hum. I'd rather read a reply to a forum question by Ron, Force, Picnic, Paul, (amongst others) or even yourself. That's where the real knowledge lies.
IMHO, it's a web-design-101 mistake to banish the link to your forums to the bottom left corner. The credibility of Sitepoint is the responses that you have to people who are asking questions. And up to now, you've had a strong credibility.
There was no focus shift, we were just cleaning up some styling stuff before moving the link. It's in the main header now.
Good to see it back up at the top.
Indeed it is. I'm really digging the forums, nice and easy to read.

In 1985, during her acceptance speech for her second best-actress Oscar, Sally Field told the audience, "I haven't had an orthodox career."
Now, the actress has proven that once again to be true with her acclaimed portrayal of Mary Todd Lincoln in Steven Spielberg's "Lincoln." The epic historical drama, written by Tony Kushner, is expected to receive numerous nominations, including for Field, during this film awards season.
Daniel Day-Lewis stars as the 16th president in the final months of the Civil War as he pushes for passage of the 13th Amendment to the Constitution, ending slavery.
When we see Field on screen as Mary, it's difficult to imagine anyone else playing her. The actress seems to embody the troubled first lady, but it was almost a role Field didn't get.
"Are you ready?" Field asks as she begins to describe how she came to become Mary. It had been no secret in Hollywood that Spielberg had been thinking about a Lincoln project for more than a decade, and Field had been tracking it since the idea was first floated, lasering in on Mary, "knowing that this is the role I should be playing."
Early in the process, Field first mentioned her interest in playing the first lady to Spielberg when she attended an event with him. Later, after he bought "Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Lincoln" -- the 2005 book by Doris Kearns Goodwin that became part of the basis for the film -- Spielberg approached Field about playing Mrs. Lincoln. At the time, Liam Neeson was attached to play the president. But Field knew it would be a long wait "until I got a sip" because there wasn't even a script.
"Many screenwriters came and went until Tony Kushner, thank God, came on board," notes Field. But by then Neeson, for reasons of his own, had dropped out of the project and Day-Lewis, Spielberg's original choice, had agreed to play Lincoln.
"When Daniel came on board, Steven said that he really didn't see me with Daniel. He didn't see it working," Field says.
For one thing, the 66-year-old actress is a decade older than Day-Lewis and more than 15 years older than Mary was during the Lincoln presidency.
"All the roles that I've really cared about I've always had to fight for," Field says. "I knew when it came right down to it, I was going to have to fight for this one, and I did."
So Field told Spielberg that she wouldn't let him walk away and that he at least owed her an audition. "He was generous and supportive, and said, `absolutely,"' she says. It would be a solo audition, however, because Day-Lewis was in Ireland at the time preparing for the part and Spielberg didn't want to disturb the actor, who is known for immersing himself in a role.
Using Kushner's script Spielberg tested Field, but when he called her the next day, he told the actress that he had put her footage with that of Day-Lewis' and still didn't see it happening. Disappointed, she thanked him, but to her surprise the Oscar-winning director called her back the next day.
"He said he couldn't get it out of his mind. He couldn't quit thinking about it, and he had spoken to Daniel," Field says. At that point the process had been such a roller-coaster ride that she recalls thinking, "Well, I could just throw myself out the window now."
But as it turned out, Day-Lewis felt that Spielberg really had to see them together to make a decision and was willing to fly to Los Angeles to do an audition with her. So Field found herself back in the same room where she did her first test, with Janusz Kaminski, who would be "Lincoln's" cinematographer, filming her and Day-Lewis in costume.
When she met the actor for the first time, "He was totally my darling Mr. Lincoln," says Field. "We did some sort of odd hour-long improv and I went home. By the time I got there, the phone was ringing and both Daniel and Steven were on the line together saying, `Will you be Mary?"'
While getting the part proved long and difficult, Field believes it was an important aspect of defining Mary's "absolute devotion and tenacity" to her husband. "That's what I needed for the role, and Steven needed to do that with me. It was his way of really starting to learn who Mary was."
Mary Todd Lincoln has long been a controversial figure in the 16th president's life. Field describes her as "a very colorful person."
"She picked Lincoln early on in her life when she was a very young and popular woman in Springfield (Ill.)," notes the actress. "He was 10 years older than her and kind of a bumpkin - respected but not really. But when she heard him speak, she said that `One day he'll be president and I'll be his wife."'
To prepare for the role, "I did every bit of research I could do," Field says. "I read five books. I went to her childhood home. I visited the best collections of Lincoln and Mary memorabilia."
Coming from a powerful Lexington, Ky., family, Mary had been raised around politics and her father had valued her views.
"She had an opinion, and she never lost that," says Field. "She was Lincoln's secretary of state before he became president."
The future first lady was also well-educated and well-read for a woman of that era. "Abraham and Mary loved poetry and memorized it and recited it together," adds the actress.
History shows that the first lady could be as sharp-tongued as her husband, and that wasn't lost on Kushner, the Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright. He gave Mary a number of key moments in the film. In one scene there is a "polite" confrontation with Thaddeus Stevens (Tommy Lee Jones), an abolitionist Republican representative who as head of a budget committee infamously tried to have her jailed for overspending on White House renovations. His efforts to chastise Mary are met with sweet sarcasm that Field delivers with a decided edge.
By 1865, Mary had become difficult for Lincoln to live with. Two of her four sons were dead, and she was depressive, prone to migraines and possibly bipolar. Lincoln, at times, was driven beside himself trying to deal with her. In one scene that takes place in a White House bedroom, the president threatens to have her institutionalized and appears ready to strike her after she has berated him for not grieving enough over the loss of their son Willie.
The New Yorker critic David Denby writes that while Mary is "not likable," Field gives "a great performance," a sentiment echoed by numerous reviewers and filmgoers.
Interestingly, Day-Lewis and Field did no rehearsals before filming, but from the moment they got together were constantly in character. Upon meeting her in Los Angeles, Day-Lewis called Field "Mother," the term Lincoln affectionately used for Mary. So absorbed in their roles, Field says she felt that she only met the real Day-Lewis after filming was finished.
"I think we both trusted completely in the work and in trying to find their relationship," Day-Lewis says. "There was never a moment when Sally seemed anything other to me than the person I shared my life with during that time."
In her long career, Field has taken some surprising turns.
She began in the 1960s on TV as the cute "Gidget" and the adorable title character in "The Flying Nun." But in 1976 she opened eyes with her acclaimed performance as a woman with multiple personalities in the TV movie "Sybil," for which she won her first Emmy. Also that year, in "Stay Hungry" opposite Jeff Bridges and Arnold Schwarzenegger, she proved she could be very sexy.
Field won her first Oscar for her role in the 1979 film "Norma Rae," as a factory worker who becomes a union organizer, and her second for 1984's "Places in the Heart," in which she plays a Texas woman holding a farm together during the Great Depression.
Field later appeared in hits such as "Murphy's Romance," "Steel Magnolias," "Not Without My Daughter," "Mrs. Doubtfire" and best-picture winner "Forrest Gump," in which she played Tom Hanks' title character's mother despite being only 10 years older than the actor.
The last decade has found her returning to television, with two more Emmy wins, one for a guest appearance on "ER" and another as the lead in the ABC drama "Brothers & Sisters," which ran for five years.
One thing Field observes about Mary is that the first lady felt shut out by Lincoln's cabinet.
"She felt she lost her importance to him because the country and the cabinet took him away for her," Field says. "But she did not go quietly into the night."
Neither has Field, with "Lincoln" giving her a chance to remind us why she has won two Oscars. It was her persistence over many years that helped get the role.
"So in some ways it was destined," she says. "It had to happen that way."

St Ann's Cemetery in Penetanguishene Simcoe County Ontario
I am still geting the new grave photos on line and it will most likely take me the rest of the day to finish.
You can see what I have online so far at St Ann's cemetery

I would be VERY interested in pictures of a couple of headstones that may be in St. Ann's Cemetery. They are the graves of Toussaint Charlebois and/or his wife Parmelia Marie (DuBeau) Charlebois. I believe they were both buried in St. Ann's Cemetery in Penetanguishene Simcoe County Ontario. Toussaint (my great-great grandfather was born on 10-30-1847 and died on 4-15-1889). His wife, Parmelia Marie, was born on 2-15-1855 and died on 1-24-1930. ALSO, I am not sure whether he was buried there, but I am searching for my great-grandfather's grave as well, he lived and was married in Penetanguishene, but I don't know whether he and his wife died/were buried there.
If you are willing, would you please check for their graves as well? I don't have a death date for either one of them, but their names as birth dates are:
Edouard Charlebois, born: 8-10-1874Marie Odile (DeRoches) Charlebois, born: 8-1-1875.
Thank you SO MUCH for your consideration of my request.
Sincerely, Jill Stacy

Hi Jill:
Toussaint is our great grandfather. Our grandmother was Henrietta Charlebois Stokes. My sister has done a lot of research on the family and would like very much to get in touch with you. Please contact her at firstname.lastname@example.com or you can reach me at email@example.com. Hope to hear from you soon.

Funny Car Has a Not-So-Funny Explosion
George Carlin once joked that the only reason he watched auto racing was for the accidents, he "wanted to see some cars on fire". Funny because it's true. However, when they are as serious looking as this one, there isn't much to laugh about.

Demonstrations began occurring in California Saturday evening, when word of the Florida verdict arrived. Trouble has repeatedly occurred in Oakland and in Los Angeles, particularly in the Crenshaw district southwest of downtown.
On Monday night, about 150 people split off from a demonstration at a Crenshaw-area park and ran through streets, jumping on cars, trying to break store windows and committing assaults. A Wal-Mart store was vandalized by intruders.
TV news helicopters showed some people kicking and punching others along a street, including two people sitting on a bus bench.
Also assaulted were a reporter and photographer for Los Angeles TV stations KCBS and KCAL who were interviewing a man when someone tackled them and ran off. KCBS-KCAL reported the crew was treated for minor injuries.
In Oakland, meanwhile, demonstrators split off from a gathering at City Hall Monday evening, briefly blocked Interstate 880, tried to march onto Interstate 580, threw fireworks and assaulted a restaurant waiter with a hammer, the Oakland Tribune reported.
Police used flash-bang grenades and made nine arrests for crimes including assault with a deadly weapon and vandalism, police spokeswoman Johnna Watson said. Witnesses told the Tribune that a protester was also injured by a police projectile.
More than 300 police officers responded to the Los Angeles demonstration. They initially were slow to directly engage protesters in an attempt to allow a peaceful end to the demonstration, according to Beck.
"What we've been doing the last couple days is being as accommodating as we can be to people," said Cmdr. Andrew Smith, a police spokesman. "We're really allowing people to express themselves, which we continue to do."
But Beck said the department was being forced to change its enforcement tactics, including requiring a city permit for any gathering.
Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti told a late-night press conference that the trouble was caused by people exploiting the situation.
"The trial that we saw in Florida has ignited passions but we have to make sure that it will not ignite the city," Garcetti said.
"The Martin family didn't ask anybody to break car windows," he added. "They didn't ask anybody to take little kids' scooters. They didn't ask anybody to attack businesses and they certainly didn't say to take over traffic in the streets."
Councilman Bernard Parks, who is a former police chief, joined Garcetti in urging only lawful behavior.
"We've gone through in my tenure at least two major riots," he said. "Many of the areas that were burned have never really recovered and these are things that we don't want to experience as a city."

We have had record low temperatures in Atlanta over the past two weeks and it doesn't look like it will be letting up very much anytime soon. I think it is safe to say winter is finally here. In addition to the low temps, we have had some small amounts of precipitation which can only mean one thing: Ice and snow! Promotional ice scrapers are a staple item everyone should have in their car, not just those living up North. I can't tell you how many times I had to use a credit card to scrape my windshield because I didn't have a promotional ice scraper. Household and automotive items are one of the most used products consumers own, and promotional ice scrapers are a great giveaway to help promote your business. You can bet that the next time the temperature drops and the sleet and snow fall, your custom imprinted ice scraper will be the first thing they reach for.

Lewis Hamilton has vowed to reel in Nico Rosberg for a second time in this season's Formula One world title battle after swallowing another bitter pill in Canada.
Dicing with Rosberg for the lead of the Canadian Grand Prix, Hamilton was forced to retire after 47 laps with rear-brake failure sparked by the loss of the ERS (energy recovery system).
Although the ERS in Rosberg's car also failed, the 28-year-old went on to see the chequered flag, claiming second after being passed by Red Bull's debut winner Daniel Ricciardo two laps from home.
It means Hamilton is now 22 points behind Rosberg, a crushing blow after previously clawing back a 25-point deficit from the opening race in Australia where he retired and Rosberg triumphed.
"I did the best I could out there and felt like I was having a strong race, but unfortunately it just wasn't our day," said Hamilton.
"There was nothing I could do about our issues. We were managing the loss of power, but as soon as I finally made the jump on Nico in the second pit stop, my brakes failed.
"There are no emotions other than I couldn't believe my car stopped and the other didn't, but that's the way it goes.
"Two DNFs (did not finish) is not helpful, but there's a long, long way to go. I've caught up before, so I'll catch up again.
"To not finish is disappointing, but there are plenty more races ahead of us this season so let's hope for better fortune."
Previously, Hamilton had to reel off four successive victories to finally edge ahead of Rosberg in the standings.
Given the performance of the Mercedes car, despite the gremlins on show at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, Hamilton feels it may take something similarly special.
"Naturally, for the team, I don't want either car not to finish so hopefully we don't have any issues on either car for the rest of the year," added Hamilton.
"That obviously means I'll have even more work to do to make up the lost ground, probably another four wins, and I'll do what I can to get those.
"We've good tracks coming up, and the one for me is I make sure I win at Silverstone (in the British Grand Prix on July 6)."

Dear Gavin, my heart is with you. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Gavin,
You are your dad's double! Sending you lots of thoughts and a virtual rubbish joke.
May your day be filled with kind memories and reminders from your Dad.
My heart goes out to you, take care.
Thinking of you and dad.
Gavin, here is to your Dad and I am sure he has already found some wonderful horses to ride. Perhaps he has gone riding with T.
Today they are with you. Tomorrow they are gone. In the days that follow somehow life goes on. But tears that fell like rain, when souls were torn apart, in time are gently frozen in the corners of the heart. So quickly goes a week, a month will disappear, and then the tears return, its been another year!
God bless your dad
Thank you all! And for sure Lainy, my dad and T will be riding some horses and swapping jokes and stories too!
Hugs to you all,
May the memories of your father bring you everlasting joy.
Take Care
Sending you hugs today.
We are with you as you remember the wonderful memories with your father. I am sure you have so many terrific moments to remember.
A father-son bond is something that one lives every day of their lives.
My best to you,
I hope you had a day of great memories of your beloved Dad.
Love & Peace,
I hope you had a lot of smiles thinking about your Dad and his wonderful life. Thinking of you.
Nice post on facebook - so nice of you.
Wonderful post, Gavin xx
FB post, what post was that? On my own page or somewhere else?

Five questions with Missouri junior point guard Phil Pressey
Five questions with Missouri junior point guard Phil Pressey
Q: How much one-on-one did you play with your dad (former NBA player Paul Pressey) growing up?
A: All the time. Actually it was two-on-one, my brother and I would play him. He always found ways to cheat a little bit and win the game.
Q: What did your dad teach you about the game of basketball?
A: He taught me how to play the game the right way, to do the little things, passing, playing defense. Do what it takes to win basketball games.
Q: What do you get more satisfaction from, scoring more than 20 points in a game or having 10 assists in a game?
A: I've never got 10 assists (in a game) so that would be cool. That would mean we would have a lot of guys in double figures. It would be a happy locker room.
Q: Biggest difference between playing in the SEC compared to the Big 12?
A: It's pretty much the same. Just different arenas. I think in the SEC, they let you play through fouls a little bit more.
Q: Toughest player that's guarded you this season?
A: I wouldn't say it's one player, more teams. Ole Miss was pretty tough, Florida. I'd have to say, though, probably Louisville. Their guards get on you on the perimeter and their big guys are tough around the basket.

text: It's clear that Lance is without question our best player at creating their own shot. This is a player that ignites his teammates. Tonight, Lance sparked a run that pushed our lead to 17pts. He was then quickly and stupidly subbed out of the game, and we lost all of our momentum. It seems like whenever he is playing with the starters, he rarely gets the ball. There was one play in the fourth quarter where George Hill ignored Lance completely while he was wide open. When the game is on the line, we like to go to Hill and George from the perimeter. I'm not so sure I'm at all comfortable with Paul George getting touches on all these critical possessions because he turns it over way too much. Lance has proven himself in a limited role, that he deserves to be a much bigger part of the offense

Dunkirk is one of the most established names in hydronic heating. Their reputation has been built over the years by ingenious design and perpetual innovation. With a diverse range of outputs, Dunkirk's XEB line features a model for every home. There are plenty of reasons to consider the XEB for your heating needs; it features a low profile, a simple installation process, and efficient operations. The XEB's gas control comes prewired and installed within the unit, and it includes straightforward plug-in connections for an inducer fan and system pump. Finding a suitable spot for installation is simple thanks to the XEB's compact size and venting options. With a keen eye towards longevity and peace of mind, Dunkirk placed a sturdy cast-iron heat exchanger within each XEB. If you value durability, simplicity, and efficiency, the XEB is fantastic choice.
Product Features
Venting Options
The XEB uses an induced draft fan to guarantee consistent combustion conditions. This fan also lets you vent the XEB in a horizontal sidewall application or through an existing chimney. Multiple venting options mean greater flexibility in where you can install the XEB.
Intelligent Control Algorithm
The XEB's control features an algorithm which helps to deliver consistent, efficient heating. This algorithm will recirculate water with residual heat when possible, instead of firing the burner. This keeps fuel use down and prevents the sudden spikes and drops in temperature which may be experienced with less advanced control techniques.
Cast to Last
Dunkirk has the utmost faith in the quality of their cast-iron heat exchangers. To demonstrate this faith, Dunkirk has developed a 20 year, non-prorated "Cast to Last" warranty. Your peace of mind is guaranteed with an XEB.
Efficiency-Boosting Insulation
Heat retention is a cornerstone of efficiency. Dunkirk employs an insulated boiler jacket with the XEB to reduce wasted heat and make your energy dollar go further. The effect this has is compounded by the XEB's algorithm which uses residual heat to maintain comfort.
Product Includes
- (1) Dunkirk XEB-5 Hot Water Boiler
- (1) Taco 007 Circulator
- (1) 3" x 4" Vent Connection Increaser

Dont cut your protein intake, but make sure you have a wellrounded diet that is low in calories. (Lots of greens and fish is really good as well.) No matter how you lift weights will change your bodyweight if you dont look at the diet. Especially if you gain easily.
Blake_T wrote:cool. how'sit working for ya so far?
Depending on how much _animal_ proteins one gets cutting some of it may be a good thing along with the more important calorie intake. Americans eat a lot of meat and IIRC Blake has suffered from a disease that builds up uric acid in the toe so bad that the slightest movement of a bed sheet over the toe causes howling pain. Don't recall the name of the disease in English ATM. The diet is half the battle. You still need to consume energy so go out to do field practice if hours of swimming or 6 hours of walking 5 days a week doesn't sound palatable. Former competition swimmer you know... And I mean hours of swimming in one go and no slacking in between. Just gogogo no respite. Naturally the pace needs to be slow to keep the heart rate low in order to keep you in the majority of fat burning zone. Raising the heart rate too high will quickly burn the reserve fat which is only few per cents of the entire fat content so you could spend it in a day if you train hard enough and not lose a lot of weight after that. And that's fro the muscles but it'll also cost you in muscle power.
the other big goal is to build core strength and overall flexibility up to hopefully get rid of some mild but nagging lower back pain i've had for many years.
so, the current plan is to alternate between the beginner program with lower reps/higher resistance/slow pace, and the circuit program with lots of reps and a fast pace.
Claytoon wrote:Hopefully no one here actually works for Total Gym....
What about the Weider Total Body Works 5000? It got great reviews (50 of them) on amazon, and is for sale at walmart.com for $140, free shipping to store. It includes the pullup attachment, and a squat attachment. Instead of being able to add weights, it includes 4 elastic cables to increase the resistance up to 50 lbs.
I've been unable to find any Total Gym models over the 1500 model for less than $200.
Blake_T wrote:the bayou total fitness is superior to most of the total gym models (with the exception of the 5-digit model ones). the weider ones, not so much.
According to the bayou website, they manufacture the Weider one. (or are they just a distributer...)
And yes I am only looking at used ones, but I want to make sure I get one that has the wing attachment, would like the squat attachment, and my main concern is I want one that has the weight attachment, to add more weight. So...now I realize that I am primarily looking for the 1700 or above. I've emailed a couple people from Craigslist, as Blake recommended, and am hoping to hear back today.

Fall: Good time to spray musk thistle in rosette stage

More Ag News
This week, the Nebraska Legislature advanced several bills to another round of debate and the appropriations committee approved increased funding for state colleges.
Here are some highlights of what happened at the Capitol, from April 1-5.
Nebraskas state colleges might be able to freeze tuition for the next two academic years if increased state funding meets legislative approval.
The Appropriations Committee approved a 4.5 percent increase for the 2013-2014 school year for state colleges and a 4 percent increase the following year. For the University of Nebraska system, the committee approved a 4 percent increase for both years.
The budget plan is due to the legislature by May 1, and lawmakers will make a decision by May 20. The increases would apply to the University of Nebraska campuses in Lincoln, Omaha, Kearney, the NU Medical Center and Chadron, Wayne and Peru state colleges.
The increased funding would be made possible by an extra $64.8 million in tax revenue projected by the states official forecasting board.
LB 57: Environmental trust
Senators voted 27-17 Wednesday to advance an environmental trust bill after a day and a half of contentious debate.
The bill would require the board of the Nebraska Environmental Trust Fund to approve the sale or transfer of land that was initially purchased with grant money from the fund.
Supporters of the bill are concerned that land purchased with money from the environmental trust would be transferred to federal agencies for the purpose of conservation.
They argue that rural counties lose out on much-needed property tax revenue when such transfers take place.
Opponents worry the bills language is unclear and that putting the current board practices into statute is legislative micromanagement.
LB79: Campaign finance
Senators voted 27-0 Thursday to advance a campaign finance bill. The Nebraska Supreme Court ruled in August that the existing law that provides matching funds to candidates who agreed to voluntary spending limits is unconstitutional.
This bill, introduced by Sen. Bill Avery of Lincoln, would take the money that is now in the dormant "Campaign Finance Limitation" cash fund and give it to the Nebraska Accountability and Disclosure Commission to pay for a new electronic filing system for campaign statements.
LB271: Less time for early voting
Senators voted 31-0 Thursday to advance a bill that would decrease the time for in-person early voting from 35 days before the general election to 30 days.
Sen. Scott Lautenbaugh of Omaha introduced the bill because election officials said they need 10 days for a company called Election System & Software to program AutoMARK voting machines in Nebraskas 93 counties.
The machines allow visually impaired people to vote without having their ballots read to them, which defeats the purpose of casting secret ballots, Lautenbaugh said.
Senators disagreed, saying reducing the time for early voting decreases the voter turnout.
The senators compromised with Lautenbaugh, passing an amendment that reduces the early voting period by five days.
LB 423: Livestock welfare
Senators voted 34-1 Thursday to advance this animal livestock welfare bill introduced by the Agriculture Committee. The bill would allow law enforcement to intervene with suspected livestock animal neglect and abuse.
If the neglected livestock were seized, they would remain on the property of the livestock owner during court processes. The owner would pay the costs of caring for the animal and would be refunded if found not guilty of abuse. The bill also would authorize the courts to euthanize livestock in extreme cases if the owner is found guilty of neglect.
LB 629: Looking at business tax incentives
Senators voted 39-0 Thursday to advance a bill that would increase transparency and accountability by having Nebraskas governor provide the Legislature with information on tax incentives, said Sen. Danielle Conrad of Lincoln, who introduced the bill.
Nebraskas agriculture and manufacturing industries are among incentive beneficiaries, and Sen. Ken Schilz of Ogallala credited the agriculture industry with getting Nebraska out of the recent recession.
Sen. Tyson Larson of ONeill criticized Conrad for introducing the bill because he said the information is available if senators ask for it.
Sen. Bob Krist of Omaha said the information isnt sent out in a timely manner.

Jazzin' It Up at the BOS

Notable Service to Fairfax County
The Board of Supervisors will adopt a resolution to recognize Captain Jesse Bowman of the Fairfax County Police Department for his commitment, ongoing initiatives and years of honorable service to the residents of Fairfax County. Bowman, who has served more than 28 years, has been a patrol officer, helicopter pilot, detective, supervisor and commander within the department. Through his vision and guidance, programs have been initiated in the areas of sobriety checkpoints, alcohol stings, street racing, directed patrols and pedestrian safety.
Youth Initiative Makes Road Safer
The Board of Supervisors will recognize Scott Gollobin, Ian Plecity and Carlos Quintela, of Oakton, for establishing a partnership with the Miller Heights Neighborhood Association and the Virginia Department of Transportation to install reflectors on mailboxes to improve visibility along a dark portion of Miller Heights Road. The youth began the initiative in response to an accident on Miller Heights Road involving two of their friends and resulted in the death of one. The initiative of the youth furthers a long-sought goal to improve traffic safety in the neighborhood.

ALAMEDA — Cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha, who signed contracts that earned him more than $60 million over the past five years, will sign for free Friday.
The ceremonial deal, announced Thursday by the Raiders, will allow Asomugha to retire with the team for which he played eight seasons after being drafted in 2003 out of Cal.
Asomugha, 32, last played for the 49ers, who released him Nov. 4.
A two-time All-Pro and two-time Pro Bowl selection in Oakland — he was asked another time as an alternate but did not make the trip — Asomugha saw his level of play drop dramatically after signing a five-year, $60 million contract with the Philadelphia Eagles before the 2011 season.
Although Asomugha's skill was as press cover corner in a man-to-man defense, the Eagles signed him despite playing a system heavy in zone defense. He was released after two years, earning $25 million in guarantees.
Asomugha played three games at a minimum salary for the 49ers this season before being released to make room for Eric Wright, who was coming off the injured reserve list.
A first-round draft pick (No. 31 overall), Asomugha had three shaky seasons before a breakout year in 2006 when he had eight interceptions on a 2-14 Raiders team and from that point on became one of the top cover corners in the NFL.
The Raiders signed Asomugha to an exclusive franchise tag paying him $9.5 million in 2008, then to a three-year deal worth $45.3 million in 2009, making him the NFL's highest paid player.
However, the deal included incentives that weren't reached in terms of playing time, and it was voided after the 2010 season, making him a free agent.
Asomugha, who will be joined at a Friday news conference by legendary Raiders cornerbacks Willie Brown and Lester Hayes and by current Raider Charles Woodson, is known for his philanthropic endeavors and community involvement.
Married to actress Kerry Washington, Asomugha and his wife are expecting their first child.

Ratings for Dr. Dennis C. Casad
Casad Chiropractic has been amazing in my pain relief. The information they provide for a healthy life has been a blessing to me not only in Chiropractic but Allergy as well.
Very professional. This was my first chiropractic experience. I recommended my wife to Dr Casad & now we are both satisfied patients.
Dr. Casad and Dr. Rainbow are our families chiropractic sports doctors. We call on them before anyone. My son knows when he needs to go. They are fantastic and knowledgable. They know how to teach you to take care of yourself!
Drs Casad and Rainbow are the best ever! They have always relieved my issues within a few visits. They have also helped with overall health and problems that Kaiser couldn't/wouldn't fix!
My husband and I have been going to Dr. Casad for over 15 years and have recommended both the office and Dr Casad to many,many other people over the years. His knowledge is amazing..........they are great at working you in when you are in need or finding a way to work around your schedule.
I had a Sciatica Nerve issue and had a limited amount of time for Dr. Casad to see me for I was leaving for Denver. He made the first adjustment on Friday and gave me his home number in the event I need more help, but asked that I call to let him know how I was doing the next day. I was able to be fit in with two other appointments which were of some relief for my flight. I have been a patient with Dr. Casad since 2002.
I went to Dr. Rainbow for a new type of treatment. I have had lifelong allergies to cats. With one very pleasant hour long session, my allergies disappeared! A miracle. Worth every penny.
Professional, compassionate, intelligent chiropractic care, starting with the front office professionals on through to the doctors. I would recommend to anyone needing chiropractic care and/or allergy relief through their allergy clinic.
Easily the nicest Chiropractor I have been to. Very knowledgable and kind.
On Feb 3, 2014 you gave us this review: 5.0 /5 The doctors and staff are all very caring, knowledgeable, thorough & compassionate.

We're having fun today talking about things we've managed to actually fix or repair. How many items are waiting in line at YOUR house for a handy person to show up with tools in hand? Some folks have a knack for taking things apart and putting them back in better working order. My son, Dean Anderson, takes after his dad. When Dean was a kid, he once disassembled and improved all the bikes at our house. I came home one day to find bike parts strung out all over the driveway. Dean and his friend, Devin Witzel, were hard at work on projects like that all through their teen years.
Chris and I attempted to take an iphone apart. Our plan didn't work too well and we ended up playing catch with it.
Jacob Boothe and Chris Wood Grade 9, Will C. Wood
I have a 1989 Honda Prelude manual car. The clutch was going out and I found out it was the slave cylinder. My father, Tom Lee, and I took it off and fixed it. Later on I had another problem and it was the hydraulic hose that started leaking. So my dad and I will be working on it and fixing it.
Anthony Lee, Grade 12, Will C. Wood
I would like to use super powers to fix things. Like... if I got hit by an asteroid that had a hole in it, and for that reason I did not get smashed, I would use my super ICE power that could freeze water and doing something cool with it. I would make it snow on a hot day and use the snow to make snow cones for everybody. I'd ride a huge avalanche to school.
Victoria Estrella, Browns Valley
I have taken apart and cleaned a lot of mechanical things at our house. I also look my paintball guns down to the nuts and bolts and made them work better.
Matt Tuscher, Grade 10, Will C. Wood
I wish I had invented the iPhone.
Alex Accard, Grade 10, Vacaville High
We went to Lowes where there was this building place for kids. The boys got to build a monster truck with wood. We got to use our own hammers. When my little brother lost a wheel, I found it for him. He didn't know how to put it on after it broke, so I fixed it.
Robbie McPeak, Grade 2, Notre Dame
I wish that I was the inventor of cell phones.
Viviana Garcia, Grade 10, Vacaville High
I fixed my mom's phone when she accidentally deleted some stuff she wanted back. I knew how to do it because I've done it before and have experience.
Steven Page, Grade 7, Jepson
I broke my long board and I was able to fix it. I had been going down a hill and I fell off my board and a car ran over it. There was a lot of glue and duct tape involved in the repair. Yes, I was wearing a helmet.
Joe Bouwman, Grade 8, Jepson
I fixed my ambulance toy when the bottom of the window broke. I can make things, too. Once, I made a Lego thing that had a snake and a red ninja with his bike. It's hard to build. I have a new Star Wars Lego now and it's a very long one to make. Maybe my dad will help me.
Cody Wellhausen, Grade 2, Browns Valley
The stabilizing board on our fence broke so my dad and I rebuilt the fence. It took six days and I enjoyed doing it.
Allison Jee, Grade 12, Buckingham

I look around the room, and I see so many familiar faces. In my nearly four years as USAID Administrator, I have sought out many of you for counsel and support. I wanted to say thank you, and that although USAID may not be your day jobs anymore, but you continue to be a strong and important part of our USAID family.
I know we also have some of our Agency's new crop of leaders here today, and I very much look forward to having a discussion with everyone.
It is a special privilege to join you today—at what I believe is a critical moment in the history of the work that we have all dedicated our lives towards.
I know you had a chance to watch the video we released celebrating our Agency's 50th anniversary. Isn't it great? I am tempted to begin every day with it.
We belong to an Agency that was founded on the simple and extraordinary premise that American prosperity and security can be achieved through human progress.
That by ending poverty abroad, we could brighten the future of Americans at home.
In the fifty years since USAID was founded, we have seen how human ingenuity and partnership has solved some of our greatest challenges.
Child mortality has fallen by 42 percent and life expectancies grew globally by 17 years.
More than 90 new democracies came into existence, including 17 in sub-Saharan Africa in just the last 15 years.
GDP-per-capita grew by 2000 percent and poverty rates fell by 48 percent—lifting over 600 million people above the dollar-and-a-quarter poverty line.
In fact, hardly anyone noticed in 2005 when—for the first time in human history—poverty rates began falling in every region in the world, including Africa.
So it's been a remarkable few decades. But what's even more remarkable is the potential for progress ahead.
In roughly two years, the global community will gather together in New York to outline the next—and hopefully—final set of Millennium Development Goals.
That agenda will likely reflect the growing international consensus that—for the first time in history—we can end extreme poverty and its most devastating corollaries, including child death and child hunger.
In January, during the State of the Union address, President Obama echoed this conviction when he called upon us to end extreme poverty in the next two decades.
But even as we stand within sight of the finish line, we know we cannot keep doing things as they've always been done.
We need a new model—a new standard of leadership in development that measures success not by the dollars we have spent, but by the results we have helped deliver.
As each of you knows, over the past several years, we instituted an ambitious set of reforms that have now touched upon every part of our Agency—from budget to talent management.
In each area of reform, we set aspirational targets that have established a common language for success, challenged our partners, and encouraged us to step out of our comfort zone.
We've rebuilt our policy and budget offices from scratch—giving us greater control over how, when, and where we spend our resources.
Since 2010, regional bureaus have reduced program areas by 29 percent, including in Feed the Future and global health.
We have advanced a far deeper focus on science and technology— mobilizing a new generation of innovators through our Development Innovation Ventures Fund, our Grand Challenges for Development, and our Higher Education Solutions Network.
These efforts have application for everything we do—from enabling poll-workers to better monitor elections with mobile phones to equipping community health workers with cutting-edge and affordable tools.
And we're increasingly working with local communities to create the conditions where our assistance will no longer be necessary.
In 2012 alone, we shifted $1.4 billion in funding to local institutions, firms, and organizations—helping to replace aid with self-sufficiency.
Out in the field, this means that we are inverting the traditional partnership model.
Today, for example, long-time partner Indiana University now serves as a sub-grantee to the Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital in Kenya, which is a direct partner.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, we've built a world-class team with a renewed focus on supporting our staff and attracting a diversity of talent.
We are all part of one team and each of us share—and is responsible for—an equal stake in our extraordinary mission.
Taken together, these reforms haven't just changed the way we work. They've changed the kind of results we can deliver.
Over the past five years, President Obama has launched three major global development initiatives to focus our efforts and rally the world behind ambitious, but achievable goals: eradicating widespread hunger, ending preventable child and maternal death, and bringing electricity to impoverished communities around the world.
The last time I spoke with you, I had the chance to share a little bit about our work in Feed the Future—which is in its fourth full year of implementation.
This year, we released the second Feed the Future Progress Report, which highlights increasingly impressive results that are changing the face of poverty and hunger across the world.
In the last year, we have helped 7.5 million farmers adopt improved technologies or management practices.
And to address the root causes of hunger, we have established a new target to reduce stunting by 20 percent in Feed the Future countries. In 2012, alone, we reached 12 million children through nutrition programs.
Last year, President Obama led global food security efforts to the next level by introducing the New Alliance for Food Security and Nutrition.
Today, it is a $3.75 billion public-private partnership that has encouraged reforms from nine African governments and commitments from more than 70 global and local companies.
In Tanzania, Yara International is constructing a fertilizer terminal at the nation's largest port, and in Ethiopia, Dupont is expanding seed distribution to reach 30,000 smallholder maize farmers and increase productivity by 50 percent.
Soon, we realized that this very same model—of public-private partnership coupled with serious market-oriented reforms—could be brought to bear on the single greatest barrier to growth across Africa: access to power.
For most of the world, electricity allows businesses to flourish, clinics to store vaccines, and students to study long after dark. But for more than 600 million people in Africa, these opportunities simply do not exist—stifling the growth of economies and the hopes of citizens young and old.
In June, President Obama announced Power Africa to double access to power on the continent and connect American investors and entrepreneurs to business opportunities abroad.
In Tanzania, for example, Power Africa is financing the construction of three renewable energy plants, the first in a series of solar mini-grid projects to expand access for the more than 85 percent of Tanzanians that lack access to the grid.
We are not going to stop here.
Today, our Agency is stronger, more nimble, and more focused than ever before—precisely at a moment in history when we stand within sight of some of the most incredible goals that humanity has ever imagined.
To help ensure we meet those goals—that we surpass them—we have outlined a specific and exciting agenda ahead to build on our progress, institutionalize our reforms, and scale our efforts.
It includes building on our Higher Education Solutions Network—weaving this new emphasis on science, technology, and innovation into the very fabric of our work around the world.
Already, twenty leading Missions have stepped forward—from Jordan to Pakistan, Brazil to Kenya—and are eager to be laboratories for deep engagement with partners in the scientific, university, and private sector community.
Fundamentally, that's what our work is about—designing, testing, and applying innovations in local communities to help end extreme poverty and its most devastating consequences.
And we will continue to strategically and assertively pursue reforms to our food aid program—which, as you know, hasn't been significantly changed since President Eisenhower was in office.
We made great strides this year towards these reform goals, and we will continue to work with Congress and our partners to achieve the reforms needed to feed millions more vulnerable people around the world.
I just wanted to close with a story from President Obama's trip to Africa in June. It's a story I hope you will take great pride in because it reflects the tremendous work that each of you were a part of at USAID.
We had a great trip. The President met Feed the Future farmers in Senegal and young leaders in South Africa. Everywhere he went, he spoke about our nation's new model of partnership in development.
Towards the end of the trip, we touched down in Tanzania, where the President was going to highlight Power Africa.
As we drove from the airport to the presidential palace, crowds were packed several people deep for miles.
A few weeks before we arrived, the Chinese President had visited on his very first foreign trip. But he didn't receive the greeting that we did.
Sometimes, as we read the paper and watch the news, it is easy to forget what America means to millions of people around the world.
And what we can continue to mean as we join the world to end extreme poverty—and end it forever—in our lifetimes.
Thank you.

Browns head coach Rob Chudzinski completed his coaching staff Thursday by hiring five more assistant coaches.
Chris DiSanto and Derik Keyes are the new assistant strength and conditioning coaches, Ken Flajole will coach inside linebackers, Steve Gera is the new special assistant to the head coach, and John Settle will coach the running backs.
Settle played six NFL seasons with the Falcons and Redskins from 1987-92. He appeared in 46 games with 29 starts and finished with 1,801 yards rushing and 10 rushing touchdowns. He spent 2011 and 2012 as running backs coach of the Carolina Panthers. In Settle's first season with the Panthers, the team made NFL history as they became the first club to feature three 700-yard rushers. DeAngelo Williams (836), Jonathan Stewart (761) and Cam Newton (706) each reached the mark as the team also set a club record for average per rush attempt (5.4).
Most of Settle's coaching experience has been in college, but in 1995 he was the Browns offensive assistant/special teams quality control coach.
Keyes was an assistant strength coach for the Texans in 2012 and worked with players on injured reserve.
Gera spent the last six years (2007-12) as an offensive assistant coach with the San Diego Chargers. He assisted the coaching staff with scouting and film breakdown. Prior to his time in San Diego, Gera served four years in the United States Marine Corps, including two tours in Iraq in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. The Marine captain earned eight medals during his military career.
Flajole has been coaching for 36 years, most recently as the secondary coach of the New Orleans Saints in 2012. Prior to joining the Saints, Flajole spent three seasons (2009-11) as defensive coordinator with the St. Louis Rams. Before joining the Rams, he spent six seasons (2003-08) as the Carolina Panthers' linebackers coach.
"Ken is a highly regarded coach with an extensive r�sum� in the NFL," Chudzinski said. "He has achieved success as a position coach and coordinator in the league. Like other members of our defensive staff. He has experience working in several different schemes, an attribute which will be valuable as we develop the Browns' defense.
"I have been with John the last two years in Carolina, and know first-hand the type of coach that he is. His players have always been productive and respond well to his teaching methods."
Flajole worked with former Browns president Mike Holmgren twice. He was a defensive assistant under Holmgren in Green Bay in 1998. He followed Holmgren to Seattle in 1999. He was the Seahawks' defensive backs coach in 1999 and also 2001-02. He coached the Seattle linebackers in 2000.
