Bullish Homing Pigeon
The bullish homing pigeon is a bullish reversal candlestick pattern formed by two candlesticks, in which the vertical length of the body of the second candlestick is contained within the vertical range of the first candlestick's body. This pattern is important as a reversal pattern, when it occurs at the end of a period of downtrend as shown in this chart.

The Macroeconomic Dynamics Of Demographic Shocks
The paper employs an extended Yaari-Blanchard model of overlapping generations to study how the macroeconomy is affected over time by various demographic changes. It is shown that a proportional decline in fertility and death rates has qualitatively similar effects to capital income subsidies; both per capita savings and per capita consumption increase in the new steady state. A drop in the birth rate, while keeping the death rate constant, reduces per capita savings, but increases per capita consumption, particularly if intertemporal labor supply is very elastic. If the generational turnover effect is sufficiently strong, however, a decline in the birth rate may, contrary to standard results, gives rise to an increase in per capita savings. Finally, a fertility rate reduction which leaves unaffected the rate of generational turnover is shown to have effects qualitatively similar to those of a fall in public consumption. Both per capita savings and per capita output decline, but per capita consumption rises. The non-linear model is simulated to study the quantitative effects of non-infinitesimal demographic shocks.

Look out, Dallas! Ryan Adams is on his way to town. The troubled troubadour is slated to play Gypsy Tea Room on June 17, and early reports of his current tour say his antics are still up to his Replacements-like standard: disaster one night, sublime wonder the next. Shades of 2002, when a drunken Adams fielded a silly request for Bryan Adams' "Summer of '69" by stopping the show, whipping out his wallet, handing $30 to the fan and then having him removed from the building. (The fan was let back in and got to keep the money.)
More recently, Velvetrope.com reported a train wreck show in Philadelphia when Adams took long breaks between songs, bitched ad nauseam about the sound system and battled hecklers--whom he has started to attract in relatively large numbers--from beginning to end. Days later, another correspondent reported that Adams' D.C. show was excellent and that the singer's stage patter was hilarious. Which Ryan will show up here?
In honor of the impending appearance of one of popular music's great meltdown artists, we've compiled a list of five of the greatest onstage meltdowns in music history. As you can see, Adams has a ways to go to catch these greats.
Ryan Adams and the Cardinals perform Friday, June 17, at Gypsy Tea Room. Tickets are sold out.
Freddie Hubbard: 1967, unknown venue
Meltdown: On a bootleg tape that has been traded for decades, jazz trumpeter Hubbard can be heard uncorking the following tirade to a jeering audience: "Fuck you, white motherfuckers! [Voice in crowd: 'Go home!'] Well, OK, I'll go home. If you don't like me, kiss my ass! That's right, 'cause you jive, you jive, you jive! You white motherfuckers! You the ones who started this shit! Lemme show you--you the ones--fuck you! Fuck you, you white motherfuckers! [Hubbard starts to weep.] If you don't like me, kiss my black ass! You motherfuckers! [The drummer starts the next song.] Fuck it, I won't do it!"
Aftermath: Unknown, though this was not the last of Hubbard's meltdowns. In 1977, he stormed off the stage at Cleveland's Front Row, screaming, "Miles Davis, Miles Davis, Miles Davis. I ain't Miles Davis, motherfuckers!"
Charlie Rich: 1975, Country Music Awards, Nashville
Meltdown: On stage to announce his successor as CMA Entertainer of the Year, Rich opened the envelope, announced that his "good friend John Denver" had won and then set fire to the envelope and results card. Earlier in the evening, Rich had been spotted backstage swilling gin-and-tonics and autographing a woman's bare breast.
Aftermath: Rich's spin doctors went into overdrive: His gaffe, they said, was thanks to pain medications he'd taken to overcome a spider bite suffered while mowing his lawn. (Yeah, that's the ticket.) Rich was pretty much finished by this incident, and the CMA continues to hold a grudge long after his death--despite being both a critical fave and the biggest artist in country music for a few years in the early '70s, he is still not a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame.
Jim Morrison: 1969, Dinner Key Auditorium, Miami
Meltdown: Drunk beyond even his own impressive norms, Doors front man Jim Morrison staggered onstage and berated the people of his native state for being too dumb to leave Florida and move to California. He encouraged the audience to strip naked. And then he started asking questions. "You didn't come here for music, did you? You didn't come to rock and roll. You came for something else, didn't you? You came for something else--WHAT IS IT?" A long pause followed. "You want to see my cock, don't you? That's what you came for, isn't it? YEAHHH!" And then Morrison unleashed his love scud. Or maybe he didn't. To this day, no one is sure.
Aftermath: Four days later, after attracting the attention of the FBI and Richard Nixon, six warrants were filed for Morrison's arrest. This was to have been the first show on a long U.S. tour, but as word spread of Morrison's conduct, promoters canceled shows and Doors songs were removed from radio playlists. Though Morrison completed L.A. Woman after this incident, and his trial resulted in only two misdemeanor convictions, the Miami incident effectively ended his career. His life would end in a Parisian bathtub in July 1971, unless you believe tabloids.
George Jones: 1979, The Exit-In, Nashville
Meltdown: For much of 1979, George Jones wallowed in severe whiskey and cocaine addiction. Eventually, his personality cracked or, better put, "quacked" into two sides. One was washed-up country singer George Jones, and the other was Donald "Deedoodle" Duck. Jones would actually argue two sides of an issue with his feathered alter ego, taking one side in his normal voice and the other in a duck voice. The duck's debut came before an audience of industry insiders at what was meant to be a comeback show.
As recalled by then-manager Shug Baggott in the Jones bio Ragged But Right, Jones "came onstage and announced that...a new star was born. George proceeded to introduce Donald and asked for a round of applause as Donald started singing a George Jones song. You could see tears in most of the people's eyes."

Aftermath: According to Baggott, Donald continued the quacky-tonkin' (after all, only geese "honky"-tonk) until he was carted off the stage in a straitjacket. This was far from the last meltdown for the Possum, but it goes to show: It may walk like a duck and talk like a duck, but it might just be George Fuckin' Jones.
Grace Slick: 1978, Germany
Meltdown: Jefferson Starship's European tour was not going well. At the Lorelei Festival, their first show in Germany, fans rioted when it was announced that singer Grace Slick was too sick to perform. The next night, in Hamburg, the band probably wished Slick was still ailing. Drunk as a skunk, she took the stage in a Nazi uniform, goose-stepped around the stage and taunted fans about losing World War II, pausing occasionally to insert a finger or two up the nostrils of puzzled German men, whom she called a bunch of Nazis.
Aftermath: Slick quit the band immediately after the show, and the group staggered on without her through the rest of the tour. "I think she created punk rock that night," recalled drummer John Barbata, but sadly, the rest of her career was anything but punk. In 1981, she rejoined the band, dropped the "Jefferson" and unleashed some of the worst and most unaccountably popular rock of all time. "We Built This City," in particular, was voted the worst song ever by Blender last year, and it's safe to say that no other creative decline will ever compare.

Showtime Networks signaled through a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Thursday its intentions to commence formal negotiations towards an acquisition of ProElite, Inc.
ProElite is the parent company of EliteXC, King of the Cage, Cage Rage, and ICON Sport and has television deals with Showtime, CBS, and Fox Sports Net but has also absorbed losses of approximately $55 million since its inception in late 2006. Showtime is a subsidiary of CBS Corp. and owns an existing 20 percent stake in ProElite.
ProElite warned investors of financial instability in an SEC filing this past August, stating that the company did not have enough resources to function into next year without securing additional financing.
"(The company) expects to report in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that its capital resources are sufficient only until the end of the year, and only if the Company makes significant reductions in operations and expenditures," ProElite warned in a Aug. 15 NT filing that announced to investors and government officials that it would be late in filing its second quarter fiscal report.
The filing also indicated that ProElite believed it was close to securing an additional $3.0 million in financing needed to allow it to operate through the remainder of 2008. However, the filing also cautioned that the deal to raise the additional capital was not finalized and there was no guarantee that the deal would be closed.
"The Company is actively negotiating to consummate a financing of approximately $3.5 million in secured debt (with a funded amount of $3.0 million after an original issue discount of $0.5 million) and believes a successful closing is reasonably likely," the filing stated. "But there is no assurance that it will be successful in doing so at all or on a timely basis. Any such failure to obtain financing in the immediate future would have a material adverse effect on the Company's liquidity and capital resources and ability to continue as a going concern."
On Wednesday, the company issued another filing revealing that it had been unable to close the deal and that it instead had received a $1 million loan from Showtime.
"The Company no longer believes that a successful closing of the $3.5 million secured debt (with a funded amount of $3.0 million) will occur," the 8-K filing states. "Although the Company has received $1 million pursuant to the Note, such funds are less than the $3.0 million needed to avoid the consequences described in the preceding paragraph and in the Company's prior reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The $1 million funding defers such consequences only for a brief period of time while the Company continues to evaluate its options on how to respond to its severe liquidity problem."
Indications that ProElite was looking for either a merger or acquisition partner came to light in a Sept. 11 column by CBS and SHOWTIME broadcaster Mauro Ranallo on the website for The Fight Network.
"I contacted Pro Elite head honcho (CEO and Chairman) Chuck Champion and he told me that he had held preliminary talks with a variety of promotions including Affliction," wrote Ranallo in a blog entry that speculated on a promised major announcement by Affliction last week.
When contacted by FiveOuncesOfPain.com, Showtime Director of Sports Communications Chris DeBlasio declined comment and e-mail and phone messages left for Champion were not immediately returned.

Well, that's a F3 I didn't seem coming! We've barely seen these folks!
Interesting F3! I'm quite surprised that Ozzy & Coach made it as far as that...the new players never learn, even 23 seasons in. Heh. That would be a helluva coup, for Albert to come back from Redemption and then win it all.

Again, the spoiler/rumours should be taken with a pinch of salt because of all the different ones flying around, i personally do not know what to believe as that forum is full of 'spoilerists'
Here are some other rumours (possibly spoilers) that have been floating around on there from different sources, which oppose the spoilers I posted a few days ago....
1) Coach makes the final 3 as he came back 'skinny as f**k' but he was thin after Tocantins and he was 5th
2) There is no medical evacuation of papa bear/Mark
3) In the next episode (3)
a] Christine beats Semhar at redemption
b] Brandon reveals his family name
c] Savaii loose and Mark is sent to Redemption Island
d] Mark pulls a 'I have an immunity Idol' trick without actually having one...it does not work.
4) Edna posted fb pictures of herself in an Upolo buff smiling proudly...read into that as you will (CONFIRMED)
5) Coach turns on Edna to protect his 5 and she goes to redemption at some point
6) The final 3 are Rik/Coach/Albert

Is that from the Maxx guy? What's his last name...Fisher? His first two predictions were right on, I didn't check the third.
To return evil for good is devilish; to return good for good is human; to return good for evil is Divine - Alistair Begg
Yeah and he got 3 right as well. Episode 4 info isn't up yet.
As for that Final 3 I don't know where that's from.
Wonder where he's gotten his info? I miss having Missyae's full-season boot list! I know some don't like that, but I sure did
To return evil for good is devilish; to return good for good is human; to return good for evil is Divine - Alistair Begg
Hmm, interesting.
I might have episode 4 info up on Saturday
Hmm. I have this dream. I'm driving a bus. And my teeth start falling out. My mum is in the back. Eating biscuits. Everything smells of bacon. It's weird. 'Course then I wake up screaming.
All the apparent spoilers I have posted are from varying different posters from the survivor sucks forums NOT the same one/Maxx, the episode ones are from Maxx though. as is Coach turning his back on Edna.
With certain exceptions, I dont believe any of the ones I posted, but they are very fun to read and can be regarded as speculation until some off their predictions are proven.
Also a member of the board did some facebook friend research (Bachelor style) on the cast before they were announced:
Papa Bear was Facebook friends with Stacey and Christine, which would indicate Stacey going pre-merge (if the Papa Bear spoiler is true).
Jim,Sophie,Keith,Whitney and Brandon were all friends with each other (Indicates they all likely made the merge)
Semhar Facebook friended no one
Albert Facebook friended no one.

Robert David Malseed Latest Articles
The use of orthotics and certain shoes such as motion control shoes do more damage to one's feet and legs, and increase the propensity for injury and further problems in the future.
Certain running shoe companies market and sell all sorts of shoes that provide such items as protection, motion control, arch support, cushioning etc., most of which are unnecessary and counterproductive. More the gimmicks and extras that are added to the shoes, the greater the profit margins they can extract. Therefore a need must be created even though people do not actually require them. Now, we have the extensive use of orthotics, which have created a greater number of problems and injuries. Injuries such as Anterior Tibia Syndrome, shin splints, stress fractures and Plantar Fascia have gotten worse over the period of time as the natural movement of the foot is compromised and forced out of position. The majority of runners only require a light weight, neutral running shoe, with an adequate amount of cushioning. Too much cushioning can actually make the shoe too heavy and that increases the level of shock impacting the feet and legs. Orthotics put too great a pressure by replacing the work normally done by the plantar fascia, if there is no problem with the plantar fascia the orthotic would put undue pressure and forces the foot outwards, this also weakens the plantar fascia thus exacerbate the problem. The solution therefore for weak or collapsed arches is pretty simple and that this barefoot jogging on well mowed grass, or soft surfaces. Also exercises such as picking up marbles with the toes and barefoot toe-towel crunches. Simple, inexpensive, light weight, well-fitting shoes with simple and easy exercises are all that one needs instead of expensive, heavy, shoes and orthotics that are unnecessary.

Impact of Lease Capitalization on Financial Ratios of Listed German Companies
The separation of leases into operating and finance leases for accounting purposes can result in incentives to favor operating lease contracts, since they avoid on-balance-sheet debt. the IASB and FAsB are conducting a long-term joint project on leasing, following the G4+1 group's research on possible improvements to lease accounting. One alternative is to treat all leases in a manner similar to today's finance leasing. Our simulation results for Germany show notable changes in a variety of financial ratios, especially for assets and liability relations, which may trigger management with incentives to dampen these effects. Of note for standard setters, the effects of operating lease capitalization should not be overstated. Only minor effects can be observed for profitability ratios and market multiples often used for valuation purposes. Moreover, most industries remain almost unaffected and the relative ratio-based ranking of all sample companies does not change much. additionally, we observe that the common Creditstats® model yields somewhat comparable results.

Points needed for next level: 281 Level
Dance is truly art—to dance is to live a thousand births, a thousand deaths, a thousand loves, a thousand heartbreaks. Dance connects souls, brings to life our wildest dreams, our greatest nightmares, our passions and our fears. Dance is the freedom of wind, the beat of the earth, the passion of fire, the flowing gracefulness of water. Dance is breath and the moments that are breathless. It is culture, it is art, it is a way of life. And I live it, I breathe it, I love it.

Bio & Incident Details
Age: 46
Tour: 17 years, 7 months
Badge # 1322
Cause: Drowned
· Leave a Reflection
· Add to My Heroes
· Update this memorial
Trooper Fred Guthrie and his canine, Reed, drowned after being swept into flood waters in the area of Routes 118 and 111 in Holt County. Trooper Guthrie was on river flood patrol duty when another patrol unit discovered his patrol truck idling on the road at about 3:00 pm, with his patrol boat still on its trailer.
A massive search was initiated but neither Trooper Guthrie nor K9 Reed could be located. The search was officially changed to a recovery effort later that evening. K9 Reed's body was recovered the following evening. Trooper Guthrie's body was recovered on January 12, 2012, near the area where K9 Reed's body was recovered.
Trooper Guthrie had served with the Missouri State Water Patrol for 17 years until the agency was merged into the Missouri State Highway Patrol in January 2011. He was assigned to the Highway Patrol's Water Division when the incident occurred.

Grantham Additional Needs Federation (GANF) won a £1,000 donation which will go towards exercise equipment for pupils with disabilities.
The federation, which runs Ambergate Sports College and Sandon School, won the 'A Grand Idea' competition run by Ringrose Law, which donated £1,000 to six worthy causes.
GANF supports children from age three to 19 with complex needs such as autism, ADHD and learning difficulties.
Vice-president James Ellis said: "We are absolutely thrilled to receive this money from 'A Grand Idea'. At GANF, we want to offer those with complex needs the chance to keep fit at the same time.
"We are trying to raise £10,000 to refurbish a disused space and transform it into a gym. This £1,000 has given us a fantastic start to our fund-raising campaign."
Ringrose Law marketing manager Alex Gray said: "We had some fantastic entries from Grantham and the surrounding villages. After shortlisting the top five projects, we opened up a public vote which was really neck and neck until the last second!
"We are delighted that GANF has won and hope that this provides them with the kickstart they need for their fund-raising."
'A Grand Idea' will be returning in 2014. Any community project or charity can send in an application by going to www.ringrose.co.uk/agrandidea for more information.

Rush Limbaugh called a press conference yesterday to counter a ground swell of public opinion that erupted after his negative remarks about Native Americans. Limbaugh, who could not care less, felt threatened by a possible boycott of his advertisers by ordinary Americans.
Limbaugh started his statement by declaring, "I was just kidding for God's sake! Indians with feathers are totally OK by me. It's the Indians with the Dots that are a menace. As long as they stay on the reservation and kill a buffalo or two, I got no complaint. As for my statement, it was written by my staff, good hard-working Americans who love their country. True, more than a few of them are alcoholic, oxycontin-crazed rejects from a KKK rehab center, but they know my audience and work hard to please."
Limbaugh finished by saying, "Now please, let's get back to the important things that really matter to the folks that know me, love me, and follow my every word. The real enemies of this country are the negroes, the Jews, the spics, the Muslims, and anyone with an IQ over eighty-seven. They are the enemies! As far as the Constitution of the United States is concerned I have this to say------ LET MY PEOPLE GO!

Joseph W. Hallett, 77
Hudson – Joseph W. Hallett, SGM (Ret.), of Hudson, son of Robert A. Hallett and Margaret B. (Williams) Hallett (deceased) of Stoughton, died Thursday, March 20, 2014 at the Edith Nourse Rogers Memorial Veterans Hospital in Bedford from the debilitating effects of Alzheimer's disease. He was 77. He joins his wife, Eleanor Florence Hallett, who died suddenly April 30, 2013.
He is survived by his loving children, Dianna L. Hallett of South Berwick, Maine, Michael W. and Amy J. (Berquist) Hallett of Fayetteville, N.C., and Margaret C. Hallett and Scott W. Gray of Upton, and four beloved grandchildren, Ashley P. Hallett of Hudson, Natasha N. Hallett and Gregory M. Hallett of Fayetteville, N.C., and Joseph W. Hallett II of Raleigh, N.C. He leaves behind a loving sister and brother-in-law, Louie and Mary A. (Hallett) Ugo of Venice, Fla.; an aunt, Therese Katona; a cousin, Kathleen Peck of Brockton; and an extended family and brothers-in-arms across the United States.
As a youngster, Mr. Hallett grew up in Stoughton, enjoying time spent with his sister Mary and brothers Bobby and Jimmy, playing baseball and football, fishing and adventuring in the woods. He attended Saint Mary's Catholic School and Stoughton High School. After graduation, he entered the U.S. Army in 1954, trained as an infantryman and paratrooper, and was stationed in Augsburg Germany. In 1957, he fell in love with and married the beautiful Eleanor Dray of Canton, and began a wonderful life together spanning 56 years of marriage. During that time Joe and Eleanor raised three beautiful children and doted on four beloved grandchildren.
He had a distinguished career in the United States Army. A master paratrooper serving with the 1st, 82nd and 101st Airborne, he was a veteran of the Vietnam War, where he earned numerous medals and commendations including the Bronze Star. He also served with distinction as part of the U.S. Army Expeditionary Forces in Korea, Lebanon, and the Dominican Republic. After his tour in Vietnam, he served at the Office of the Secretary of Defense, United States Pentagon, Washington, D.C. He transferred from Washington to the Natick Research and Development Command in 1972 to be close to his aging parents. He retired from the U.S. Army in September 1976, with great fanfare, after a 23-year military career.
Upon retiring from the U.S. Army, Mr. Hallett began a rewarding career at his alma mater, Northeastern University in Boston. In various positions, including Director of Admissions, he managed the undergraduate admissions process and worked closely with work-study students and ROTC candidates, coaching them in the life skills necessary to succeed. He retired from Northeastern University in April 1996 after 20 years of service.
Throughout his life, Mr. Hallett was a devoted servant of the Roman Catholic Church. He served as an altar boy at Saint Mary's Parish, as an altar server in various military assignments, and as an usher at his beloved Saint Michael Parish in Hudson for nearly 40 years.
He was a devoted son, brother, husband, father, grampy, boss, friend, and paratrooper who enjoyed nurturing and spoiling those in his life. He will be dearly missed by those who knew and loved him.
A funeral Mass will be celebrated Tuesday, March 25, at 9 a.m., in Saint Michael's Church, 21 Manning St., Hudson. Military funeral will follow at 12:30 p.m. in the Massachusetts National Cemetery in Bourne. Family and friends may attend calling hours on Monday, March 24, from 5 – 8 p.m., at the Tighe-Hamilton Funeral Home, 50 Central St., Hudson.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made in Mr. Hallett's name to the Alzheimer's Association (www.alz.org) or another charity of your choice.

Kavanagh Joins Distinguished Panel to Discuss the Mechanics of Elections and the Future of Election Administration
On April 1, 2010, New York University Law School's Journal of Legislation and Public Policy, in conjunction with the Brennan Center for Justice, hosted the "Helping America Vote: The Past, Present, and Future of Election Administration" Symposium and invited Assemblymember Brian Kavanagh to join the "Mechanics of Elections" Panel. As Chair of the Assembly Subcommittee on Election Day Operations and Voter Disenfranchisement and a graduate of the New York University Law School, Kavanagh welcomed the opportunity. Kavanagh was joined by three acclaimed Election Law scholars: Lawrence Norden from the Brennan Center for Justice, Michael Pitts from Indiana University School of Law, and Charles Stewart from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
From the perspective of his work on the Subcommittee, Kavanagh was able to share with the panel and audience the practical application of current New York election law and the status of New York's compliance with the Help America Vote Act (HAVA). Kavanagh drew from his experience during the November 2009 elections during which Kavanagh and his staff visited poll sites in 10 counties around the State and spoke with New Yorkers who voted on optical scanner voting machines, rather than the lever machines, for the first time – as well as election officials and pollsite workers.
Kavanagh also discussed opportunities made available with the new optical scanner voting machines to make the administration of elections more fair, efficient, and convenient for voters in New York. Two of these opportunities, instant runoff voting and early voting, are embodied in pending legislation sponsored by Kavanagh.

Rivals250 linebacker Tim Kimbrough from Indianapolis (Ind.) Warren Central has been adding offers almost daily the last few weeks. Wisconsin is the latest to offer the 6-1, 220-pound prospect, giving him 14 total.
"I just got the offer today," Kimbrough said. "I was happy because I got it because it is a good school to go play for. They have good academics, great linebackers and they always have good players that come out of there."
Kimbrough, the nation's No. 119 overall ranked prospect, learned about his offer during a conversation with Wisconsin's head coach.
Article Continues Below
"I talked to Coach [Bret] Bielema and he said I know how to use my eyes real well and I moved real good, that's what he liked about me," Kimbrough.
Kimbrough picked up the offer while in Madison on Saturday for Wisconsin's junior day. Several aspects of the program caught his attention during the trip.
"I liked the campus and all the coaches were real cool," Kimbrough said. "I got to talk to some of the players on the team and they told me about the college. They have some of the best academics, and that's one of the unique things about them."
Kimbrough has been actively visiting schools this winter, and plans to continue his travels next weekend with trips to Louisville and Kentucky. He also plans to take part in the Best of the Midwest football combine in Indianapolis on Monday.

The Sage Francis Interview Invasion, 2014
I've done a slew of interviews in 2014, all of which surfaced around the same time. Here's the comprehensive breakdown…
This is an interview I did with BeeShine on the very first day of the Copper Gone Tour. It's probably my favorite video interview that I've done:
Here's a video interview I did in Pittsburgh on the day of Copper Gone's release:
Here are a couple podcasts I participated in recently. It's a lot of talking. If you're bored or working around the house, feel free to play them while you shuffle about:

Chrome Bills (with Seez Mics): https://soundcloud.com/chromebills/cb53-the-sage-francis-interview
More recently I conducted a Q&A on my Facebook page just to see how something like that might go. Over the course of 24 hours I answered as many questions as I could. If you have the patience of a monk, you can read all of the interactions HERE.
I love talking. Love it so much. Here's a photo to express my excitement:

text: Riley is an adorable off the shoulder ruffle dress with an elastic waist. I love this design because its a current style, yet still looks like something a little girl should wear. This dress can be pulled up over your doll's legs and hips and has an elastic neckline- no velcro! This Pattern is suitable for intermediate sewers. All of my patterns are designed to fit 15" Bamboletta dolls, although you may find that other makers' dolls can wear these clothes as well. When I decided to turn my own personal patterns into tutorials, I spent the first of many long nights working in my studio while my friend Andria was in labor giving birth to her first child, a sweet little peanut they named Riley. The idea to name each of my designs after my friends' children came to me as soon as I heard her name, and this first pattern is named after her. A few words for Etsy sellers and professional makers of doll clothes... I am a work at home mom, designing these clothes, drafting the patterns, then writing and photographing the tutorials all while my two year old sleeps (or plays quietly, HA!). I realize that it is impossible to ask or expect my customers not to sell the doll clothes they make from my patterns, but please understand that it is an extraordinary amount of work to produce these documents. I hope that my customers, who are designers and work-at-home mothers like me will respect the following wishes if they will be selling clothes made from my patterns: **Please give credit where credit is due- Include in your item description, "This dress was made from a DalaiMama Pattern" and a direct link back to my shop listing for the pattern you purchased. This also applies to any promotion via blog, Facebook, Etsy, personal websites, bigcartel, etc. **Please do not mass produce my designs or offer "custom orders" made from my patterns. If a customer messages you privately to create a custom order using one of my patterns, that's one thing. But if your shop has "custom slot" type listings, I ask that you please do not offer my designs for sale in this way.

Materials Sciences, Macromolecular Sciences
I'm currently working on...
The chemical side of polyamides and designing new product lines with innovative technologies. In particular, I focus on developing high-performance polymers that can be used in high-temperature applications, such as the electronic and automotive industries.
The aspect of my work that excites and inspires me the most is...
I love to find new chemical pathways to discover new and improved materials that improve people's lives. I find it really inspiring that polyamides generate hydrogen bonds in the same way that nature generates hydrogen bonds and protein molecules to build complex systems. The area that my work focuses on is really at the heart of some important processes.
The breakthrough I would most like to see is...
I would love to drive the commercial success of new high-temperature materials, as well as to develop a broader range of these complex materials. It would be great if we could generate materials that compare favorably to the materials produced by competitors. We can achieve this by continuing to build on our research and broaden the scope of our investigations.
Key areas of expertise:
- Polymer chemistry
- Polyamides
- Engineering Plastics
- Synthesis of new materials by polycondensation
- Solid-state chemistry with a focus on solid state polycondensation of polyamides
- Structure of property relations: Translating material properties into material composition
- Effect of process conditions on material properties
- Effects of additives on polycondensates
I represent DSM externally at:
I am a contact person for a number of projects of the Dutch Polymer Institute. I am also a lecturer at the RWTH (Aachen University) and member of the Expert advisory board "textiles" and part-time scientist (area of expertise Polycondensation Chemistry, Polyamide based Materials) at the of the DWI Leibnitz-Institute for Interactive Materials in Aachen.
Based in:
Geleen, the Netherlands
- The effect of diamine length on the direct solid state polycondensation of semi-aromatic nylon salts
- Solid state polymerization in a micro-reactor: The case of poly(tetramethylene terephthalamide)
- Investigating alternative routes for semi-aromatic polyamide salt preparation: The case of tetramethylenediammonium terephthalate (4T salt)
- Incorporation of a semi-aromatic nylon salt into polyamide 6 by solid-state or melt polymerization
- Chemistry and Technology of Polyamides. Polymer Science: A Comprehensive Reference
- Formation of higher cyclic oligomers in polyamide-4,6

Can Dementia Diminish Consent?
Never at a loss for finding innovative ways to avoid liability, nursing homes are now pushing arbitration clauses onto residents. The trend raises some interesting contract law issues. For example,
[One family] hadn't realized they had signed an arbitration agreement at all . . . . But their six-page admissions contract with the Attala County Nursing Center included a paragraph requiring arbitration. It also said that if the family challenged the agreement in court they would have to pay the home's legal fees. That type of provision was declared "one-sided" and "oppressive" by the Mississippi Supreme Court last year in a separate lawsuit. But it helped pressure [the] family to accept the arbitration . . . .
A sidebar claims to offer some strategies for dealing with arbitration clauses:
Lawyers say patients should question admissions personnel closely. If an arbitration agreement is mandatory, they say, patients should write on the contract that they're being given no choice. "Write on the page, 'I'm signing this, because I was told I have to' " for admission, says Cleveland plaintiffs lawyer Blake Dickson, to try to make it easier to challenge an agreement in court.
Even the staunchest advocates of arbitration find these agreements troubling; the "biggest arbitration provider, the American Arbitration Association, frowns on agreements requiring arbitration in disputes over nursing-home care and generally refuses such cases." What's particularly ironic here is that much of the same political coalition that moved heaven and earth to respond to the Schiavo situation is behind the limits on lawsuits (and regulatory cutbacks) that make increasing risks of neglect and dehydration of the elderly a far more attractive business strategy.

Feedback From Past Tutorials
has a suggestion for the Die cut stamps tutorial: " Thanks for making a nice video to share instructions on how you make your fun foam stamps from Cut-Ups. I have been using fun foam to make stamps from my dies for years. If I may, I would like to share a few things I've learned. First, to make them cling mount, I apply two or three coats of Alene's Tack It Over and Over™ on the back. It is kind of messy so I use disposable foam brushes, which often go on sale at my local craft store 10 for $1. I let the glue thoroughly dry, then store in plastic cases. If/when the glue becomes less tacky, I just add another coat or two of the glue. If I want to cut and use them right away, I use two-sided, temporary tape, such as Scotch brand. To clean my foam stamps, I stamp them off on scratch paper, then mist them with water and wipe with a rag. (I have a stash of stamp rags which I specifically use to only clean my stamps.) It's great to expand your stamp collection with die-cut fun foam stamps.
Another good thing, is that I can buy 20 thin foam sheets (which I prefer to thicker foam) for just $1 at my local $1 store. It's economical to cut duplicates, if need be. (Like, for example, if one absorbs so much ink that you can't get clean all of the ink off, which sometimes happens, especially w/dark or bright colors.)"

Lets ALL go watch video! YAY VIDEO!
Fantastic interview, A-1.
It was mind-BLASTING. Mind-BLASTING!
/russell peters
Did he say Milky Cabrera?
How does one become a hitting coach anyway? I know they are former players (that usually weren't really that good). But how do you learn about all the mechanics and stuff about hitting for each player?
Step 1: Be a shitty hitter
Step 2: Figure out why you're a shitty hitter (that's the hard part)
Step 3: Tell other guys to not do what you did
Eh, you can say that about anything. How does a crappy soccer player become a soccer coach, crappy Basketball player become a basketball coach?
It's funny, most great, even good players are poor coaches because they can't relate to those players with "normal" or average ability.
As the old saying goes, those who can't do, teach.
It's, "Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach."
NO, my saying is slightly older.
Yup. For the zillionth time, one of my favorite baseball quotes:
"You hold it like this, and you throw the shit out of it." – Steve Carlton, when asked how to throw his slider.
(On a more instructive note, Steve Carlton's official webpage has a section explaining how to throw his slider. Link here: http://www.carlton32.com/pages/slider.html)
Once Kevin Long retires from coaching, I assume he's going to take up acting to portray "Gangster Tough #2" in various non-Italian mob movies.
He looks like such a quintessential Irish (or possibly Russian) wiseguy muscle in that windbreaker stretched over his hunched shoulders. He'd be great in The Departed 2: Dignam's Revenge.
long seems like a great coach. emotionally intelligent but not a "guru" type. no ego but not a wallflower
he needs a "getsomesleep coach"
did i hear correctly that long calls jorge "sahdo"?
a bunch of guys do. Jeter does. It's some in-joke from pretty early in his career, though I can't remember exactly what.
I think he called him "Sado". A take off of his last name. Instead of SADA it turned into SADO.
In 1995, Bob Shepherd referred to Jorge as "Jorge Posado". It stuck with Jeter, among others.
Kevin Long on using video to work with hitters:
"My eyes… I'm going to see it during the game. They might feel something. But, ultimately, the video won't lie to us."
Just. Like. Statistics.
But the statistics offer little to no help in the way of correcting the mechanical errors that are resulting in said statistics.
Since he watches every game closely & studies micro & macro samples via video, I think that what he "sees with his eyes" is probably pretty accurate.
Although I don't know if I'm actually refuting the essence of your post.
"Although I don't know if I'm actually refuting the essence of your post."
I hear what you're saying, but no, I highlighted that quote in a totally different context.
PS: I'm sure I don't need to write this and I don't like flatly explaining the intent of my original comment, but I meant that in this case that video = statistics, but I didn't mean they're used for the same purposes. Like, the video is the historical record for the hitting coach, and the statistics are the historical record for the analyst, and each is the best evidence in each of those contexts, respectively (as opposed to anecdotal evidence and narratives).
Yup, I agree, and I figured that's what you were alluding to.
Cool… I didn't mean to come off like you didn't get what I meant. Just figured I'd further clarify my intent since your response was reasonable.
On a different note… Come on clock, get a move on. Hour and a half to go.
Honestly. I had tickets all squared away to go tonight, and had to give em up as I had to go to a last minute meeting.
A(las + lack), it was cancelled as I was walking through the door, and now…well…now I'm busying myself with trying to pull gossamer non-meanings from your formatting & syntax.

Also, as I was crossing the street, in the crosswalk, there was a car approaching, driver texting, not noticing the red light. She screeched to a halt, nearly hitting me. I pointed at her, with an angry scowl, and she couldn't look away, probably because she was driving a convertible, top down. As I walked up to drop a few colorful words, I noticed she was wearing a Yankees, so, still scowling angrily, I yelled, "GO YANKEES!"
The mixture of panic & laughter on her face was priceless.
Wearing a Yankees cap*
hahaha, funny.
But the statistics offer little to no help in the way of correcting the mechanical errors that are resulting in said statistics.
Well, this may be a stretch–and I'm also stretching the definition of stretch here–but if we look at batted ball data, we could see a problem. For example, if a guy's FB rate is spiking, we could infer that the player is dropping his shoulder.
Sounds like Stretch Armstrong to me :)
Not that you couldn't infer some such thing, but it feels like using a microscope to read a book to me.
68% of statistics are made up on the spot.

Well we know how Michael Kay's long lost brother, I mean Kevin Long got the job with the Yankees.
They even sound alike.
Jorge is a second hitting coach…."If I have a question, I'll say 'hey Jorge, I see something in Cano's swing here on this video, what do you think?'"
I'm fine with that, as long as we don't ask him how many outs there are. Oh and no baserunning lessons from Jorgie, either.
Hitting coach? Yes. First or third base coach? No.
Heh, totally. I can't point to a specific comment and I don't have the patience/motivation to look back through the RAB archives, but I know for a fact that there have been a bunch of comments here in the past about people thinking Posada would make a good manager in his post-playing career. I'll give a strong pass to those suggestions.
I pray that Derek Jeter never becomes a Yankee manager. If I had to pick anyone who's got a future in coaching, I'd say it's Mo as a pitching coach or more likely a bullpen coach.
I don't know if there's anyone on the team who we have reason to believe would make a good coach or manager. That's not to say none of them would, I'm just not sure why fans seem to think some of them would. Short of a manager or coaches saying something like 'so-and-so will make a good manager someday because he's a smart guy who knows the game and has a good temperament for the job,' kind of like we used to hear about Girardi, we don't have any reason to think any of them would be good coaches/managers.
Fair enough. Mo just strikes me as the teaching type.
Eh, I really can't see a first-ballot hall of famer, with a bunch of kids at home, sitting in the bullpen with a clipboard for 162+ games a year as a second-tier guy on the coaching hierarchy. Mike Harkey? That I can see. But not someone like Mariano Rivera.
i think i remember Mo saying he would not coach, i could be wrongand he could certainly change his mind
But Mariano already does work with everybody if you believe what people say.
I don't think he'll be a fulltime coach because it doesn't seem to be his style, but I bet they bring him in when they need to.
I think Teix acts like a bit of a coach on the field already. He is very vocal and very demonstrative. He also seems to relate well to both the pitchers and the hitters. If I had to choose anyone, I go with Teix. Or maybe Matsui in Japan, but I don't know if that counts.
how about swisher for manager, he could pitch too
did he say cano doesn't use video?
Cano just naps.
I've read Arod interviews where he talks about working with K-Long. Alex has said he wants input and feedback. I think that to know how to approach each of these guys based on their personal styles is probably more art than science whereas the actual analysis is more science than art. Even an interview can be shaky so that you're not taking too much credit for their success even though we know that he has a lot to do with correcting them when they're out of whack.

LINEUPS! OH BOY! I got them off ESPN. The Yankees should be more like the Red Sox and rest their regulars so that they can be ready for next season. Next season, the Yankees will be one month behind the Red Sox!

There were many of these type of arrangements in existence, bit like the mill owners and the Cadbury Worlds supporting their own, or even the old days of the Co-op divi.
I was only reading the other day about 'overtime' and overtime payments. Instead of paying money, this was paid in 'kind'. One particular cheesemaker, use to pay his workers all the cider they could drink, with transport provided to get them home. Fancy telling someone nowadays, that was part of the job?.
