Trevor Wood says the injury that caused him to miss the bulk of his junior season stunted his recruitment. It's hard to argue with him on that point. Wood, a 6-foot-6 tight end at Scottsdale's Chaparral High School, holds six scholarship offers as it is. And if it weren't for lost time a year ago, that number would certainly be higher.
Bouncing back has been a process. He's worked to drop weight and add speed since returning to football activates. Wood says he isn't where he wants to be quite yet, but things are coming together.
He's participating in camps and playing in 7-on-7 tournaments. As a result, Trevor Wood is starting to feel more like, well, Trevor Wood.
Article Continues Below
"I think in the past week and half, I've dropped, like, 12 pounds," Wood said on Thursday. "I've been on a new diet and I got my wisdom teeth out, so I think that helped a little bit.
"I feel like I was slow to get back into it after the injury. I learned to trust my shoulder again."
According to Wood, he is down to 238 pounds. You can see it in his physique, too. He's looking more like the player that made a name for himself as a major college prospect. He's feeling more like that player, too. The offer that came in from Oregon State last week certainly helped on that front.
"I wasn't really expecting an offer now," Wood said. "I mean, maybe in the future. I guess it just came how it came."
Wood took in an Arizona State practice on Saturday. He also has tentative plans to visit Boise State for the Broncos' spring game in April. Other than those trips, though, things are still coming together. His travel plans, much like his recruitment as a whole, is a process.
"I was going to go to the Nike camp in Oregon and visit Oregon and Oregon State while I was up there, but our Chaparral team passing league might be in a tournament in San Diego. It just depends how that goes. If we're not in San Diego, I'll go up there and see Oregon and Oregon State."
UCLA, Vanderbilt, Colorado and Colorado State are also in pursuit of Wood. None of the group has extended a formal offer as now. Then, that's what an injury an in inopportune time can do.
"I feel like those are the programs that, once they see me in spring ball, could offer me then," Wood said. "I feel like the injury didn't hurt my recruitment, it just paused it. So I am a little behind in the process."
Wood names no favorites and declines to share many of his thoughts on specific schools. He does, however, have a timetable for trimming his list.
"I'll probably have a top 5 or top 10 after the summer," he said. "Then I'll cut it down to my five officials. "
Wood's current offer list consists of Oregon State, Arizona State, Arizona, Boise State, Washington and Utah.

Another onboard starter thread
I have a DLE 20 that is not being used with a prop, but as a generator for a silly hobby project (tinkering you know...).
I searched through this forum and found a few threads about on-board starters but did not want to hijack any of them.
I made the starter with a 2 stage gearbox and the flywheel gear is on a sprag. The motor turns over great, maybe 500 - 1k rpm (I can make it faster if I need to).
The crankshaft of the DLE 20 is directly coupled to a big BL motor for the generator; that BL motor weighs about 500 grams so I think it has plenty of mass.
The problem is that the motor keeps backfiring and trashing my starter gears.
What on earth can I do to prevent this? Anybody with experience in this please help.
I thought maybe getting the motor turning really fast and then switching on the ignition?
Maybe some sort of clutch? I will post a pic and/or a vid of the starter soon. Thx,
- Joe
The gap is fixed as far as I know and the screws are tightened all the way down.
Now there IS some flex in that plate. In that version in the video, I added a bent piece of aluminum across the top to stiffen it up, but it still flexed.
I have some 6061 aluminum on the way that is twice as thick and should not flex.
I always thought it would be fun to have 2 gassers(auto start) each run a gen and then put them into a V-22 Osprey with brushless motors the prop setup. Make for some autonomous flying with a lot of endurance and recharge capabilities....
your project is pretty cool!
Turk: I have not messed with the timing and I used to have that motor mounted with a prop and it ran great. I suppose if it is possible, I could try retarding the timing a bit.
Hutchinstuff: That would be a really ambitious and cool project. It would have to be massive to make the power to weight worth it. Probably would be better off with a single gasser in the 50cc range, and just run two rectifiers off the motor; one for each BL setup. Just don't try to use two rectifiers in parallel...
DarZeelon: the ignition is not hooked up at all, no sensor, plug, power... its just a motor with a sensor wire dangling down.
I am just wondering if I should be trying to design some sort of clutch in this, like adapt a slipper clutch from an RC truck? that way if it backfires it can just slip and not trash the gears?
Anything of that sort is going to require a lot of planning and effort, that is why I am trying to get an idea about what other people who have designed and successfully implemented starters have done about the issue of backfire.
I also realize that I can buy certain off the shelf solutions but I really wanted to make it myself, just for kicks... like kit building vs buying an ARF.
Thanks again everyone for the input.
For this kind of engines to start on a boardstarter without any messing with the ignition, need two things: instant acceleration, and a high enough RPM to get the engine passing TDC against ignition on its own inertia.
If you want to start it with a lower RPPM, you need retardation to close to TDC, if you want to start it with a slow accelerating starter, you need to temporary cut ignition until "firing speed" is reached.
Which of the options you choose is up to you.
Judging that video based on my own experience with starting problems on a Zenoah G230, I would say that your current starting RPM is on the low side, and acceleration is way too slow. Fix those problems, and it will most likely start reliably and instantly.
Brgds, Bert
If you put a clutch in it will slip and the engine still won't start. You might check the actual cranking timing. It sounds as if the ignition may be firing early even tough it should retard to just before TDC. I think some or all of the DLE 20 have a strange timing curve? The rigidity of the starter is important as well. Are the long standoffs rigid enough to prevent them from twisting?
What are you doing with this generator setup? You can buy a 500W generator with a four stroke engine for under 350USD delivered. I love tinkering, but unless the purchased product didn't fit my application I would just buy it.
If the engine is using an "RCexl-like" ignition, the retardation only takes place above 400 RPM. With a slow accelerating starter that means, the engine will start igniting before a sufficient speed is reached, and than timing will be too early, and the backfiring will prevent the starter from reaching sufficient speed.
So IF my suspicion is correct regarding the type of ignition, then first cranking up and only activating ignition if sufficient speed is achieved, would be the most logical solution....
Brgds, Bert
I start smaller engines with full ~28° advance without issue, but my starters have very high cranking speed and torque available.
The reason I asked about the sensor gap,is because it looks quite large in the video. It may not be retarding as expected. DLE are supplied with RCEXL ignitions, but I understand the curve supplied with the 20 was somehow odd.
One more thing, go to full throttle straight away with the fastest motor acceleration programmed into the ESC. If the motor balks, use a better ESC.
Awesome info.
The start sequence will be controlled by arduino eventually so I can program an ignition delay with a relay switch. For now, I will just put my finger on the switch and when the RPM hits what I estimate to be good, i will turn the ignition on.
The generator is just for kicks for now, not sure if it will go "in" anything at this point. I just like playing with robotics, circuits, RC planes and the like. A lot of people have speculated on gas/electric stuff for RC and I would be lying if I said I have not contemplated/attempted this as well - but there are big technical challenges to that...
The standoffs have a tiny amount of twist but not enough to even effect the gear mesh.
In fact, when it backfires, the gears on the starter motor get trashed, not the flywheel gears which is what the flexing would effect the most. I am currently moving from aluminum to hardend steel gears on the starter motor to improve robustness against a backfire.
Maybe that is the wrong direction because trashing the flywheel gear will be expensive - I had to get a machine shop to bore it to an interference fit with the sprag... that is about a $120 gear when its all said and done. The flywheel gear is 416 stainless though, its durable... I really wish I could find a helicopter main gear with an 8mm bore... that would lower the cost of the flywheel gear a lot...
Thanks for the input guys, I have great info now to proceed.
Maybe I am making a very silly suggestion here.... but if I understand correct, you intend to use a fairly big brushless motor as a genertor, correct?
Wouldn't it be easier, to make use of that motor/generator as a starter? if it can handle the power delivered by the engine to convert to electrical energy, I would figure it would be able to crank that engine into life as well?
Might be a bit complicated electrically, but it would make things a little less complicated mechanically....
Brgds, Bert
To an extent I can; in the sense that the generator motor will turn the fuel motor through compression stroke, and being a 270 kV motor, a 2 cell LiFe battery may get it somewhere in the 1.3k rpm range. That should be enough power; however - I am using a bellow shaft coupling which allows for about two degrees of misalignment between the two motors - and I am hoping will soak up some of the power pulses of the IC motor and mitigate harm to the magnets of the BL motor (I really don't know if this is even a concern). But that shaft coupling can only handle so much torque and I don't want to risk stressing it with routine starts/potential backfires.
I have not really thought about electrical implications either, probably just a Y-split where the motor wires go to both a rectifier and an ESC. As long as there is no load on the generator at start-up, it should not make a difference... I would have to think more about it I guess.
Maybe I will go to a rigid shaft coupling and just use the generator motor in the future.
I have screwed up more on board starters than ANYONE! I can suggest two things...I'd recommend a flywheel of sorts,with some mass,equal to what the engine experiences with the prop-the engine can reverse direction too quickly,without it. It won't affect rpm capability...(just take a little longer to get there)
You do need to check that the ignition timing is being retarded electronically.
I have a Zenoah G-62 with an onboard starter,and I'm fabricating a bracket that will work in conjunction with the throttle to alter ignition timing.
Knowing that your magneto is correctly adjusted will remove one concern.-position the magnets directly in line with the magneto...Fold a piece of paper money (President is inconsequential),and place it on the magnets.Loosen the screws,close the gap,and tighten the screws....Send me the money...lol...Your magneto is correctly adjusted.
There is much to learn here,and a high interest is developing.
There is no solution with gearing-your/our problem is controlling the ignition timing. When the gears get strong enough,you'll start twisting shafts in two.

For the first time since 1972, the Blackhawks have tied their franchise-best start to a season. As the only team to achieve a 4-0 record during the shortened 2013 campaign, the Blackhawks sit comfortably at the top of the NHL standings.
On Saturday night, the team will fight to go 5-0 for the first time in their history as they head to Columbus to face the Blue Jackets.
Previous matchups
The Blackhawks have continued to build momentum throughout their wins against Los Angeles, Phoenix, St. Louis and Dallas.
Up until their matchup against the Stars, Chicago had established and maintained the lead in their previous three games. But on Thursday, the team had to prove that they are capable of coming back from behind as well.
Derek Roy and Ray Whitney each recorded a goal, giving the Stars a 2-0 lead heading into the third period. But the Blackhawks never slowed their aggression and tied the game by the end of regulation after Jonathan Toews and Patrick Sharp each found the back of the net. Despite goaltender Kari Lehtonen's strong performance in net, Marian Hossa scored the game-winning goal in overtime.
The Blue Jackets, however, haven't exactly had the smoothest start to the year. After winning their season opener in Nashville, Columbus was unable to earn another two points against the Red Wings, Coyotes or Avalanche. In fact, the Blue Jackets are heading into tonight's game after being shut out by Colorado Thursday night.
Since the start of the 2009-10 season, Chicago has only dropped one game at Nationwide Arena. Between the Blackhawks' strong start and the Blue Jackets' struggles early on, Chicago is highly favorited to continue their undefeated season.

UPDATED STORY: Suspect in Sunday shooting held without bail
Shooting location
Metro Police are searching today for a Las Vegas man in connection with an overnight shooting incident where one man was killed, another man was shot and a third was beaten badly enough to go to the hospital.
Detectives are asking for the public's help in finding Carlos Orellana, 23, Las Vegas, who is suspected of shooting both men.
Police said they received 911 calls at 12:01 a.m. today reporting that a man had been shot outside the Olive Mediterranean Grill and Hooka Bar, 3850 East Sunset.
According to police, when patrol officers arrived, they found a man about 21 years old who was suffering from gunshot wounds. Emergency medical personnel examined him and found no signs of life, police said.
Police said they won't release the victim's name until he is positively identified by the Clark County Coroner's Office and his next of kin are notified.
A second man, who was 20 years old, presented himself at the University Medical Center with a non-life-threatening gunshot wound, police said. That man, who was treated for his injury, told police he had been shot outside the Olive Mediterranean Grill and Hooka Bar.
A third man, who is 26 years old, was transported to Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center, where he was treated for various injuries related to being battered outside the same location, police said.
Police have not yet identified the two injured men.
Police say Orellana was last seen in possession of a pistol while fleeing the scene in a white 2008 Toyota four-door compact car with Nevada, Las Vegas commemorative license plates "LV 20PO"
"Do not approach Carlos Orellana, call 911 if observed. He is to be considered armed and dangerous," says Police Sgt. Russ Shoemaker, of Metro's Robbery/Homicide Bureau.
Shoemaker said police are asking for the public's help in finding Orellana and his white Toyota. Anyone who knows where he is or has information about the shooting is urged to call either the Homicide Section, (702) 828-3521 or Crime Stoppers, (702) 385-5555.

the process is not yet at the manufacturing stage, but should bring huge benefits to lcd screen quality when it gets there. the most improvement is expected to be seen in lcd televisions, bringing them more inline with plasma screens and making them a more competitive option in terms of quality.
read more at the inquirer, and thanks to slashdot for the heads-up.
matthew's opinion
this process can't come soon enough, as lcd displays are obviously the future of computer displays for the moment (with cool tech like oled peeping around the horizon as well). anything that improves the quality of a screen you stare at for several hours a day is a good thing.
everyone knows the current crop of expensive lcd tvs on the market is a pretty poor bunch. even the top-end models can be picked apart in terms of quality, and crt still wins out every time. this process may change that, though, with the huge increase in response time and, hopefully, improved picture quality.
let's face it: thin displays bring with them many benefits, including reduced power consumption and less resources needed to create them. they will continue to get better, and hopefully power-hungry displays such as crts will be obselete within 10 years, replaced by minimal power-consuming options offering better quality at the same price. i can dream this will be the case, at least.

|plasma power efficiency? (10:55am est tue sep 07 2004)
i believe that plasma screens are actually more power-consuming than crt today. i agree that power-consumption is of critical nature – even for non-mobile devices. we need to conserve our planet's resources…
the time is right for oled screens to replace older crt/lcd technologies.

the reason people want 100fps is because it raises the minumum fps you get when you hit a laggy part.
all games have those places that you slow down, if your avarage fps is say 40, your going to be dropping down to around 15 or lower fps when to much is happening or on the screen. but if your avarage is around 80 your minumum will be above 30fps, which is all that really matters.

KELOWNA - Police don't have a motive for why a man tried to start a fire inside a downtown law firm earlier today.
RCMP media spokesman Const. Steve Holmes says the man entered the Pihl Law Corporation building at 1465 Ellis St. and started a fire in some clothing on the third floor at about 10:20 a.m. today, July 13.
The man assaulted a tenant of the building when he tried to intervene and when the Kelowna Fire Department responded and tried to extingish the fire with a dry chemical extinguisher, Holmes says the man also attacked the firefighters.
"We haven't established anything yet. We're not sure if he had been a client or what the deal was. He seemed to not be making a lot of sense when in conflict with the firefighters. So maybe there is mental health issues or something else going on. He is in custody."
Holmes says a firefighter was slightly injured during the attack and the man in the law firm who tried to intervene had his clothes ripped and sustained a shoulder injury. Others were treated for smoke inhalation and the effects of the dry chemical extinguisher.
"One of the firefighters had his hand injured as a result of the conflict. One of the people who worked at the law firm, he also got involved in helping deal with this individual who was getting out of hand"
Holmes did not identify the man but says he is facing potential charges of assault, resisting arrest and arson and will remain in custody until he makes a court appearance tomorrow. A pyschological assessment has also been ordered.
The entire building was evacuated during the incident and Holmes says there was some smoke damage and burns to the flooring and one of the doors inside the building.

ALAN PARDEW admits Newcastle United are in the grip of an "injury crisis" as they prepare for Saturday's home game with Manchester United.
Moussa Sissoko has become the latest player to be ruled out of the game with David Moyes' side as he has suffered a hamstring strain.
The Frenchman has returned to his homeland to receive treatment, and is expected to be ruled out for the next three weeks.

Tim Krul, Mathieu Debuchy and Loic Remy are also unavailable on Saturday, and Pardew admits his side's task is all the more difficult because of the length of the club's injury list.
"We've got a real injury crisis at the moment," said the Newcastle boss. "We've lost Moussa this week, so of the team that started when we beat Man United, five won't play, although one has left the club.
"Moussa has a hamstring strain and we think it will be two or three weeks. He's been a terrific player for us, and has had a great season.
"He was finding his feet a little bit last season, but this year has served him well. Will Remy be ready for the weekend game? No. We think he's got a chance for Stoke, but we thought he had a chance for this week and are a little bit disappointed that he hasn't."
Newcastle produced one of their worst displays of the season as they were hammered 4-0 at Southampton last weekend.
The defeat saw the club slip to ninth position, and Pardew is urging his players to produce a positive response to their St Mary's no-show.
"We're all very aware of the performance at Southampton not being good enough for this club," he said. "We will be doing our best to put in a performance that is worthy. We're disappointed that happened (last weekend) and have to try to put it right."
Manchester United have been a disappointment for the vast majority of the campaign, but the reigning Premier League champions finally showed glimpses of a renaissance as they claimed a 1-1 draw with Bayern Munich in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final on Tuesday.
"It's difficult because Man United have had a little upsurge," said Pardew. "They were terrific against Munich and will bring that bounce to our place.
"We're coming off a very poor performance. Everything points to them being favourites to win this game, but we have to prove that wrong."

1779 Tasting Notes
Ok, lets see if I can give this a proper review.
I thought since I was home it'd be a good time to have a green and brew it properly with my kettle. I love how it smells – very simply I can smell cherry and grapefruit.
When I sip it I get blasted with the grapefruit, which is followed up by the cherry to sweeten things up, and a touch of rose at the end. I think that's different than what I said before, but this is what I taste now.
It's cooled a bit by this point bc the baby distracted me for about half an hour, but it's still tolerably warm and very tasty. I would say it's more cherry and rose than grapefruit once it's cooled.
Hmmmm "blasted with grapefruit" – not sure that's going to make me happy, but if that goes away as it cools. Need to find time to try these for myself. Glad you are exploring yours.
orange puerh; tropical dream are the two teas i don't think you have and i have samples of pret a portea; granny's cake and golden himalaya…any of those something you want to try cavo?
I thought I'd have this, but I should have added a bit of brown sugar to it. It was ok, but sorta muted flavour-wise. And I know Butiki teas are flavoured more naturally than say, Della Terra, so I shouldn't expect it to punch me in the face, but it was a little milder than I prefer.
I wonder how 2.0 compares?
I'll save some of 2.0 to send to you when I get more money, and you can try it out for comparison :)
It was a little creamy? IDk, maybe I just wasn't in the right headspace to fully enjoy this one, or maybe it's just not for me. I already have enough Butiki teas on my always-restock lists that I'm not too fussed either way. :P
I'm drinking this again! It's so great. Just make sure you have at least one mulberry before you steep it or it loses all the magic.
This has lots of magic. It smells delicious from across the room, but didn't stay that far for long as I'm happily sipping away.
It's so cool and refreshing (while hot) that I strongly suspect it would be nice iced.
This tea is calling to me. I may have to place a RiverTea order soon. Hopefully my purchases today will hold me over for a little while at least. I got Gold Rush so that should help.
Haha I like how we are already planning our next swap :P. I swear we are going to get to a point where we just know what to send the other and have packages ready to go for when we decide it's time. And Sil, she is a pretty great swap partner :)
I wanna swap with you too, Sil! When I have money! @VariaTEA – I had a list on my laptop of things on your shopping list I own/have similar to that I was gonna send you as add ins if you didn't request them (which I guess I'll now have to remake because of the lack of a laptop). I don't think the loss of my master spreadsheet has really hit me yet…
Oh me too! I want to do a trade someday too! :P
(No rush though)
And yikes. The loss of your spreadsheet is rough! There's no way to salvage any of your date? And keep it on dropbox?? :(
I can't even get my computer to boot up – let alone access the documents on it. I haven't brought it in though to be professionally evaluated because I don't have the money – but my technologically minded friend from Regina says that if the hard drive is salvageable, it'll likely cost more than getting a new one and since there's only a couple word documents that I'm missing having, it's likely not worth the extra cost. I definitely want to do a proper swap with you too, though!
VariaTEA – it's funny you talk about you and RS getting so you're ready to go right away. Sounds like you two might be tea sisters! Terri and i both have standing boxes at our respective houses that get filled with anything we think the other should try, might want to try etc… when it's full, it goes out. so it's less a swap at this point than just a standing agreement to share tea whenever. heh
Oh man, I haven't had this in TOO LONG. I'm on my second cup now and it's great. So great.
I just posted a rant about my teavana online ordering experience here (http://steepster.com/discuss/6267-my-teavana-experience?post_id=118682#) and it's ok actually because I have this lovely tea. I don't need Teavana tea. Their blends are mostly additives anyway – there's not much actual tea there. I just wanted to try them out so that I could say for sure how I felt, but NO THX.
But hey, how do you know? Some people don't like Adagio tea as they're too entry level or whatever (like DAVIDs and Teavana) but I'm happy with them! So I have no regrets.
Ok, so everyone has been posting this one lately and it reminded me I was due for a cup. I think I still have about 2 oz of this left in my pretty, keep me forever TARDIS tin! But I bought this in April, so I had better get sipping!
It was a great cup, as always. 2 min is enough to bring out the flavours so they can dance in my mouth and take me to different places through time and space… Now if only I could land in August 2014 to see the new Doctor Who Season. Or, Christmas next year for more Sherlock! :O
(I guess to be specific, they were talking about THIS Tardis tea: http://steepster.com/teas/custom-adagio-teas/42029-tardis but I don't have it and never have. So, it's time for this one! Some day I will switch from Cara McG teas over to Aun Juli Riddle. I've heard good things and for some fandoms I like the art far more!)
Haha. They're both good, but I like the other one better. :) Although, knowing Adiago fills tins by volume, and the fact it has white tea in it… I'm not sure I want to buy more. IDK.
So, the verdict is that tere IS hope for this one. Mewakeling suggested I steep it for at least 20 minutes, so I left it in for 30, and it was still warm enough that my mug (colour-changing) hadn't faded yet. Excellent!
It tasted a little 'barky' but still with a lot of chocolate. :D
I added a little milk to it too. Yep. This is much better. It'd almost make a hot chocolate substitute, if only I could get more chocolate in here. :P
Sipdown! (158)
I'm especially happy to finish this one as I bought it last February and it's time to clear it out. Sure, I didn't open the bag up until a month or so again so it was fresh but I'm pretty happy with my recent efforts to keep my tea rotated! So when I log a tea that I already have in stock, it gets a seperate entry on my sheet so I know how old the oldest stuff is and how new the newest. (Thanks Sil for that tip)
We were talking about tea earlier (right? who does that?) and I realized that 90% of my teas were purchased AFTER July 2013. So, that's damn fresh.
Damn fresh.
Addict – someone who uncontrollably buys tea and considers themselves a heffalump. A-D-D-I-C-T Addict.
Haha. My earliest teas are August, Cavo. Now I just need to drink them up soon (or send them away, that also has helped) to ensure my stash remains at maximum freshness.
VariaTEA – that's pretty awesome too! I try to rotate between my newest exciting tea, and my oldest nearly forgotten stuff.
The spreadhseet makes it so easy to track though. I love sort. (excelnerd)
I think I will have to add a column to my spreadsheet to mark when I got things. Typically I drink swaps first though and then go back to my own tea. Though I do make exceptions for cravings and for sipdowns.
I do he the same variatea….try to get to sample swaps first, then on to my teas. My oldest tea is from march at the moment but there's only 1 and then it jumps to May….not too shabby, and of course I don't count puerhs
I should probably try to drink my sample sizes down. Usually I rush through as many as I can when I first get them, but if I get a lot of new teas at once it's hard to do it, and then some end up getting pushed to the back. I don't like to let them sit more than a month. Maybe two?
Sil – You not counting puerhs makes more sense than me not counting my 'guest' Tetley Orange Pekoe box that just won't go away (for ppl who don't want loose tea), and my eucalyptus/mint/ginger blend for colds that I only drink 2-3 times a year if I'm lucky! At least puerh ages nicely.
You changed your picture!!!
"Addict – someone who uncontrollably buys tea and considers themselves a heffalump"
I'm not a heffalump……does that mean I can buy tea….?
Heee. slightly tempted to change my pic to a woozle, but…
I'm a sucker for this cat. And this is my fav pic of her.
A heffalump or woozle
Is very
Geez. Between that, Fantasia, and some of the super weird cartoons on TV when I was a kid, it's amazing I didn't turn out weirder.
I have a lot of this tea, and the last time I had it, my throat prickled. I had a different rooibos and no prickly issues from it, so maybe it is from a spice in this that I got too much of in that steep? I hope it was a fluke, cuz this one is sooo good, and one of the few rooibos I like.
Hmmm. Did you buy any this year? From what I hear this blend is slightly different than the one from last year, so that might be part of it.
That sucks though. I get that once in awhile with rooibos, and I don't know what it is, aside from the rooibos that triggers it because it's not consistent.
I'm not sure. Miss B sent me a packet, I think, and I had some from before. It may be that it happened with the tea from her packet.
OMGsrsly: Kids shows are weird. I remember being super freaked out by many Winnie the Pooh movies. And I cried when I saw Finding Nemo in theaters…
This was a surprise form OMGSrsly!
And yay! Numi Teas! Yes, they're bagged, but they seem to pack a lot of flavour in each bag. This one delivers exactly what was promised – dark chocolatey notes mixed with earthen wonder. I like it!
Also, I missed removing an earlier sipdown so I'm actually at 159 now! WOO. I won't hit 150 by February though. I could push it, but I won't.
Ok, so Yezi Tea has a sale going on and then reminded me that I have 3 lovely samples that have slowly made their way over to me and that I should have sampled a month ago. But I grabbed them when I grabbed like 30 other teas from Sil (swaps/split purchases/freebies) and it sorta got lost in t he shuffle.
Poor Yezi tea.
I like this. It's a nice rich black. It's malty and it has depth. Sadly I feel like I haven't had enough straight teas lately and I've lost all my vocabulary to describe it. And to taste the nuances. I like this, but I'm not sure what to say about it.
It's a little like Laoshan Black. Not as much cocoa notes though. I'd recommend it though to anyone interested in trying Yezi Teas.
Sipdown (161) (after I resteep it)
Mmmm… This was supposed to be my breakfast, instead of the Tim Hortons. I love it. I had to pull it out and see that I had enough to share with Roswell Strange, and I do! But since I had it out, why not make some cold brewed with milk for the morning.
Why not indeed. Yum.
I'm not sure I'd want it without milk though. It's just so good with it.
Courtney – i can send you some of mine as well if you'd like to try it first. it's one of the many i have that are currently unopened :)
That's so generous. :) Maybe check my cupboard to see if there's something I can send in return Sil!
:P You guys are awesome. I was just gonna volunteer to send you a few scoops while I pack up Roswell's but Sil was ALL OVER this.

Clinton Role in Iran-Bosnia?
WASHINGTON, D.C.: House Speaker Newt Gingrich created a special panel to investigate the Clinton Administration's role in Iranian arms shipments to Bosnia in defiance of an international embargo imposed in 1992. Gingrich's call for an investigation came a day after a State Department official said that the administration tacitly approved the 1994 arms transfers because of the Bosnians' desperate military situation. "President Clinton's policy of virtually inviting Iran into Europe could have disastrous results for America," said Gingrich. "The president undertook this reckless policy hastily and then kept it secret from Congress, the American people and our European allies." While the GOP will try to get as much political mileage as possible out of the inquiry, TIME's James Carney says it's not likely to be a major issue in the fall. "This is an issue that Senator Dole will try to exploit. But foreign policy will probably not be a major campaign issue unless Yeltsin loses the election in Russia or the Middle East peace process falls apart. But this is a legitimate avenue of inquiry. Iran is a rogue state that supports terrorism, and it's worth investigating if the U.S. was in fact cohorts with Iran" Headed by Illinois Representative Henry Hyde, the investigation will be conducted by the select subcommittee of the House International Relations Committee and will include five Republicans and three Democrats.

Earlier this week it was reported that Google were going into the robotics business with former Android chief Andy Rubin leading the way. Following on that report it seems that Google really are going into the robotics business now they've acquired Boston Dynamics, the makers of the most terrifying robots that I've ever seen.
Boston Dynamics, maker of the BigDog Quadraped robot that's able to handle ice, and snow as well as the creator of various other terrifying humanoid robots is now under ownership of search engine giant Google. Specific details of the deal is unknown but along side uncomfortably human-like robotics Boston Dynamics are the owners of a $10.8 million contract which was signed earlier this year with the US Defense Agency Research Projects Agency (DARPA), a contract which Google have announced they'll honour.
So right now, as well as being the owner of the biggest search engine on the net and one of the most popular smartphone operating systems, they're now also a military contractor. Though Google have admitted that they won't become a military contractor "on its own".
That man running at the front of Google's robotics effords, Andy Rubin, sent out a tweet yesterday which read "future is looking awesome." If the GIF below is anything to go by Andy, the future is looking terrifying.
Not even ice can kill it!!!

You might remember the story reporter Ashley Milne-Tyte did on a push to clarify ink cartridge labels so that costs are more transparent to consumers.
Now, there's news that changing the font you print documents with might save you thousands of dollars. Printer.com data shows that switching from Arial to Century Gothic helps save money because the amount of ink used by a narrower font is less than, say, something bolder or blacker.
But there is a catch. Using Century Gothic might prevent you from buying more ink cartridges, but not paper. The font is wider than Arial, so you may end up printing more pages.

WASHINGTON — As President Barack Obama and his national security team struggle to increase pressure on Russia over its intervention in Ukraine, they have become entangled in a tense debate over how much emphasis to put on unity with European allies reluctant to take stronger economic actions against Moscow.
So far, Obama has opted to stick close to the Europeans to maintain an undivided front, even at the expense of more punishing sanctions and quicker responses to Kremlin provocations. But some inside and outside the administration argue that the U.S. should act unilaterally if necessary, on the assumption that the Europeans will ultimately follow.
The issue came to a head in recent days as U.S. and European leaders tried to coordinate a new round of sanctions after the collapse of a Geneva agreement to de-escalate the crisis in Ukraine. Secretary of State John Kerry delivered a blistering public attack on Moscow on Thursday night for not living up to the agreement, but the plan to follow that up with sanctions Friday fell apart while Washington waited for Europe, postponing action until Monday at the earliest.
The deliberations in the West came as pro-Russian forces in Ukraine on Sunday continued to defy international demands to stand down. An anti-government militia paraded eight detained members of a European military observer mission before cameras, while protesters seized a regional government television station and declared they would use it to air Russian newscasts.
The display of the captive European observers underscored the challenge for Washington and Brussels in defusing the conflict.
The sanctions to be announced as early as Monday would single out more people close to President Vladimir Putin as well as certain companies. Among them are likely to be Igor Sechin, president of the state-owned Rosneft oil company, and Alexei Miller, head of the state-owned Gazprom energy giant, U.S. officials said.
The measures will also block certain high-technology exports to the Russian defense industry, officials added, without elaborating. But while some of Obama's advisers want him to impose sanctions against whole sectors of the Russian economy, the president has decided against it for now, cognizant of the resistance of European nations that have far more at stake economically, officials said.
During internal deliberations, Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew and other officials have argued for caution, maintaining that more expansive measures without European support might hurt U.S. business interests without having the desired impact on Russia, according to people informed about the discussion. Obama has been particularly intent on not getting too far in front of Europe to avoid giving Putin a chance to drive a wedge in the international coalition that has condemned the Russian annexation of Crimea and destabilizing actions in eastern Ukraine.
"The notion that for us to go forward with sectoral sanctions on our own without the Europeans would be the most effective deterrent to Putin, I think, is factually wrong," Obama told reporters in Asia, where he is traveling. "We're going to be in a stronger position to deter Putin when he sees that the world is unified."
He added: "For example, say we're not going to allow certain arms sales to Russia — just to take an example — but every European defense contractor backfills what we do, then it's not very effective."
Some officials, however, privately argue that the administration has made coordinating with Europe too high a priority and that effectively deferring to the 28-member European Union is a recipe for inaction. The U.S., these officials contend, should move ahead with more decisive action on the theory that Europe wants leadership from Washington and historically joins in eventually.
The administration also signaled that even if Russia backed down in eastern Ukraine, the U.S. would not lift sanctions as long as it controlled Crimea.
"Sanctions imposed because of its actions in Crimea will remain so long as those actions continue," Tom Malinowski, assistant secretary of state for human rights, wrote on the department's blog.

4 Ways Tenet Plans to Grow in Today's Healthcare Market
Dallas-based Tenet Healthcare Corp. has become one of the most influential health systems in the country, and it plans to continue its "robust growth."
At the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference in San Francisco, Tenet CEO Trevor Fetter shared four ways the for-profit hospital chain will continue its expanding market position.
1. Scale and market leadership. Last year, Tenet closed on its acquisition of Vanguard Health Systems. The deal was valued at $4.3 billion — $1.8 billion in cash and $2.5 billion in debt assumption. Tenet now has 78 acute-care hospitals, more than 170 ambulatory surgery centers and five health plans. The deal not only gave Tenet more scale but also made it a top market leader in 20 of its 30 main metropolitan markets. The company expects to continue increasing its scale through an "aggressive outpatient growth strategy" and driving more cost efficiencies across its system.
2. Value-based healthcare delivery. Tenet expects focusing on the value aspect of healthcare, such as quality metrics, patient satisfaction and value-based pay, will give it an edge.
3. Innovative capabilities. The Vanguard deal also gave Tenet the oversight of six accountable care organizations. Those new delivery models, along with its Conifer Health Solutions business, are expected to grow Tenet's bottom line.
4. Readiness on the exchanges. Many healthcare groups are sheepish when it comes to the success of the health insurance exchanges established through the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Mr. Fetter has previously said he believes reimbursement from the exchange plans will be on par with commercial payers, and consequently, Tenet has doubled down on its exchange efforts. All of the company's hospitals are participating in at least one exchange plan at every level, and 97 percent of Tenet hospitals are participating in at least one of the two lowest-cost silver plans, which are expected to be the most popular.

'Weekly Challenge 25: Trig Trig Trig' printed from http://nrich.maths.org/

Differentiating gives
$$f'(x) = \sin(\sin(\cos x)) \cdot \cos(\cos(x)) \cdot \sin(x)$$
This is zero if and only if
$$\sin(\sin(\cos x))=0 \mbox{ or } \cos(\cos(x)) = 0 \mbox{ or } \sin(x)=0$$
Consider the first of these three conditions:
$$\sin(\sin(\cos x))=0 \Rightarrow \sin(\cos x) = n\pi, n\in \mathbb{Z}$$
Since $|\sin(X)|\leq 1$ for any real $X$ and $\pi > 1$ we must choose $n=0$ in the previous equation.
$$\sin(\sin(\cos x))=0 \Rightarrow \sin(\cos x) = 0 \Rightarrow \cos x = m\pi, m\in \mathbb{Z}$$
Similarly, we must choose $m=0$ in this expression. We can thus conclude that
$$\sin(\sin(\cos x))=0 \Leftrightarrow x = \left(r+\frac{1}{2}\right)\pi, r \in \mathbb{Z}$$
Consider the second of the three conditions:
$$\cos(\cos(x)) = 0 \Leftrightarrow \cos(x) = \left(r+\frac{1}{2}\right)\pi, r \in \mathbb{Z}$$
Since $\frac{1}{2}\pi> 1$ there are no real solutions to this condition.
Consider the third of the three conditions:
$$\sin(x) =0 \Leftrightarrow x = n\pi, n \in \mathbb{Z}$$
Combining all three conditions gives us the locations of the turning points:
f'(x)=0 \Leftrightarrow x = \frac{N\pi}{2}, N\in \mathbb{Z}
We now need to consider whether they are maxima, minima or something else. We could look at the second derivative, but this will be complicated and the boundedness of $\sin(x)$ and $\cos(x)$ allows us to make shortcuts as follows:
Notice that $f(x) = 1$ when $x = \pm \frac{\pi}{2}, \pm \frac{3\pi}{2}, \pm \frac{5\pi}{2}, \dots$. Since $f(x)$ is continuous and differentiable and $|f(x)|\leq 1$ these points must be maxima. The even multiples of $\frac{\pi}{2}$ must therefore be minima, at which the function takes the values $f(x) = \cos(\sin 1) \approx 0.666$.
A plot of the graph confirms this calculation:

TEMECULA -- The Temecula City Council called a special meeting for today after city officials discovered Friday that state Sen. Dennis Hollingsworth tried to move the city's bid to take over a local highway through the state Assembly with amendments the city opposes.
Mayor Mike Naggar responded to the news by calling the special meeting -- scheduled for 12:30 p.m., today, at City Council chambers, 43200 Business Park Drive -- during which the council will review the matter and vote on a resolution opposing Hollingsworth's amendments.
The actions taken Friday and today are the latest signs that the city and Hollingsworth have hit an impasse over Senate Bill 87.
The amendments would add language to SB 87 that would essentially tie the city's hands over a controversial traffic signal on Bedford Court that some property owners have lobbied Hollingsworth to protect.
The city also sent a letter Friday to state Assembly Speaker Fabian Nunez requesting the matter be sent back to the Assembly's transportation committee for a formal hearing.
Naggar said in a phone interview Friday that the senator is trying to "sneak" the legislation through with the controversial amendments.
"We are opposed to any amendments whatsoever," Naggar said. "We have a senator who's operating against the will of the city."
Hollingsworth dismissed Naggar's comments.
"That's just silly," Hollingsworth said. "I was going to move the bill forward with what I thought was the most innocuous language I could come up with."
"I've been trying to work with them," he added. "And they've basically told me it's their way or the highway."
City officials have been negotiating with Hollingsworth for more than a year to take control of 6.25 miles of Highway 79 South and North (Winchester Road) because the city cannot synchronize signals, coordinate traffic flow between streets or even fix a broken light while Caltrans controls those roads.
The sticking point in those negotiations is over a traffic signal on Bedford Court. Some property owners there voiced concern that the city, once it controls the road, will remove the signal -- a move they said would hurt businesses in a nearby shopping center.
The bill had been approved by both the Assembly and the Senate last year but Hollingsworth yanked it before it got to the governor's desk over the property owners' concerns.
City officials maintain that even if they take over the road, Caltrans will still control the light due to its proximity to the freeway. But the city agreed to help with a traffic study funded by one of the concerned property owners -- John Moramarco -- to determine if the signal is needed.
Hollingsworth resubmitted the bill in December and City Manager Shawn Nelson has said the city would submit the study to Caltrans and "go along with whatever decision they make."
So city officials were jolted in early February when they got word that Hollingsworth was pushing for the amendments.
Naggar has stated he "has no confidence" in Hollingsworth and the latest surprise Friday only furthers that view.
"We can't get a straight answer," Naggar said. "It seems like a lot of things are being done in secret."

So you have a data governance program. Congratulations! Now you're probably thinking about how you can measure the state of data governance in your enterprise moving forward. Perhaps you've compile a list of questions:
The truth is there are dozens of similar questions that can be asked to assess the state of the state, but the only one that really matters is whether the data governance program is proving its value and driving better business results. Read more
So, I have to admit it: Like most people, I'm a creature of habit. When I realized I was getting to the end of my trusty National® Brand 150-page lined account book (known to most people as a notebook), I fired up my browser to buy some replacements. Unfortunately, the company where we buy office supplies from carries something similar, but not identical. So I left the confines of our approved suppliers and found my product. I ordered 2, and selected 3-day shipping. Read more
On a recent trip to Barcelona, I did an exceedingly rare thing for a business trip: I went sight-seeing. The top of my list was Sagrada Familia, a gigantic modern cathedral designed by eccentric Spanish architect Antoni Gaudí. After standing in line for nearly an hour to get in, I was fully prepared to be underwhelmed: these touristy "must-sees" have a way of disappointing me. But that time it was different. I was blown away. Read more
I confess. I just love Lora Cecere. I've been her client; she's been my boss, and I call her a trusted friend and advisor. We've enjoyed conversations and exchanged ideas in hallways, convention centers, airports, taxi cabs, hotel bars and many restaurants across the country and gabfests by phone. One of my absolute favorite Lora moments came a couple of years ago at our old AMR Research headquarters in Boston when I stuck my head into her office and saw birthday cards on her desk. Ten minutes later, the two of us were sitting across the street in the South train station sharing a slab of cake, two coffees, a live chamber music performance and time just to sit, chat and celebrate her day.

In a gesture of solidarity, several communities in the Hudson Valley are planning ceremonies Friday to mark a week since the school massacre in nearby Newtown, Conn.
In Yonkers, Mayor Mike Spano has asked that residents join in a moment of silence in remembrance of the Sandy Hook shooting victims at 9:30 a.m.
In Mount Vernon, Mayor Ernie Davis will lead a somber ceremony that will include a moment of silence at 11 a.m. to coincide with tolling church bells in Newtown. The group, which will gather at City Hall's rotunda, will say a prayer for the victims after the moment of silence.
In Sleepy Hollow, residents will gather for an interfaith vigil at 5:30 p.m. Friday. The village also will collect gifts and letters for the young survivors of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.
Adam Lanza shot dead six adults and 20 children at the school Dec. 14 before killing himself. Earlier in the day, he killed his mother.
And in Yorktown, neighbors will gather at the Jack DeVito Memorial Field on Veterans Road at 7 p.m. Friday for a candlelight vigil. Like their counterparts in Sleepy Hollow and other towns, organizers will collect letters of support for the surviving Newtown victims.
There also will be a coordinated moment of silence in schools across the country. Connecticut Gov. Daniel Malloy has invited school principals and teachers to lead their students in a national moment of silence, beginning at 9:30 a.m. Friday.
The vigils and moments of silence were announced Thursday as mourners in Katonah buried victim Anne Marie Murphy. The 52-year-old teacher grew up in Katonah and lived in Sandy Hook, a community within Newtown, for the past 14 years, working as a teacher's aide at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
Cardinal Timothy Dolan, Catholic archbishop of the Diocese of New York, was a concelebrant at the funeral Mass and praised Murphy for her selflessness as Lanza rampaged through the school. Murphy died while shielding 6-year-old Dylan Hockley from Lanza's bullets.

December 5, 2012
On December 12, 2012, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) will host its first call to educate providers on the new functional reporting requirements for Medicare Part B outpatient therapy services. In order to participate on the call, you must preregister online to receive the call-in information. Please register early as space is limited.
The Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 mandated the collection of therapy outcomes on the claim form, beginning January 1, 2013. CMS published, in its final rule for the Medicare Fee Schedule, instructions for reporting current status, projected goals, and discharge status using nonpayable G-codes representing the condition and modifiers indicating the severity on a 7-point scale. The scale and the conditions align with ASHA's National Outcomes Measurement System (NOMS), which is being reconfigured to include the G-codes and severity modifiers to assist speech-language pathologists in meeting the new reporting requirements.

Is Apple TV needed to operate the B&W A7 music wireless system.
- Asked by Peter L from Fort Lauderdale
- Asked about: Bowers & Wilkins A7 AirPlay Wireles…
2 Answers from the Community
No you don't need Apple Tv. The A7 has Airplay built in, for iTunes, from Mac or any suitable iOS device.
- Answered by John F
No, Apple TV is not required to operate the A7.
To play music 'over the air' to an A7 from either iTunes or an AirPlay compatible iDevice, all that is required is a wireless network router.

Truly Amazing Mac and Cheese
If your kids prefer mac and cheese from a box, with its powdered "cheese" product, ban the boxed stuff for a few months and it will fade from memory. Then introduce this recipe, with its aged Gruyère and Parmigiano-Reggiano. Almost every kid will love it at once.
For the sauce:
- 2 Tbs. unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 cups milk
- 1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 bay leaf
- Pinch of grated nutmeg
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
- 1/2 lb. macaroni shells or other shape
- 2 Tbs. unsalted butter
- 1 1/2 cups mixed grated hard cheeses such as aged cheddar, Gruyère and Parmigiano-Reggiano
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
Preheat an oven to 350°F. Butter a 10-inch square or similar baking dish, or 4 to 6 individual baking dishes.
To make the sauce, in a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook, stirring, until the mixture forms a ball, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and whisk in the milk, 1 cup at a time, mixing after each addition until smooth. Return the pan to medium heat and whisk until the mixture comes to a boil. Add the onion, bay leaf and nutmeg and season with salt and pepper. Reduce the heat to low, and cook, stirring frequently, until thickened, about 10 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl and cover to keep warm. You should have about 2 1/2 cups.
Bring a large pot three-fourths full of salted water to a boil, add the pasta and cook until al dente (tender but firm to the bite), according to the package instructions. Drain, transfer the pasta to a bowl and stir in the butter. Add the sauce, 1 cup of the cheese and the cream, and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
Pour the pasta into the prepared dish and sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup cheese over the top. Bake until golden and bubbling, about 30 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Serves 4 to 6.

Brad Keselowski is shockingly on pole for a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race for the first time since May of 2011. Keselowski won the pole for the Camping World RV Sales 301 at the New Hampshire Motor Speedway. It's the first time that the Generation Six car has hit the flat track in the Northeast and it sure didn't disappoint.
Keselowski set a new track record at New Hampshire in his Penske Racing Ford with a lap time of 28.165 seconds at 135.232 mph. It was stunning to see Keselowski win the pole considering he isn't the best of qualifiers. Not to mention, he's been struggling so far this year and is in jeopardy of becoming the first reigning NASCAR Sprint Cup Series champion to miss the Chase for the Sprint Cup.
However, after the controversy last weekend at Daytona with all of the penalties, one team seemed to underestimate the seriousness of NASCAR. One team just happened to push themselves a little bit too much once again. This time, it was the championship points leader, Jimmie Johnson and his No. 48 Chevrolet team.
Johnson originally qualified on the outside pole aside Keselowski. Yet, he failed pre-qualifying inspection not once, but twice. NASCAR enabled the team to make the mandatory adjustments as his car approached the starting grid. Once qualifying was completed, a well earned second ended up being taken away. Johnson's car was found to be too low and will not start in the 43rd position. This means that Kurt Busch will start on the outside pole which is outstanding considering how the team is a single-car organization, on the verge of making NASCAR's version of the playoffs.
Johnson's time being disallowed will probably have a penalty along with it. Though it probably won't effect the championship outcome too much, Johnson's crew chief, Chad Knaus, could be suspended for several races, killing all of the momentum which the team has gained over the past few weeks.
Juan Pablo Montoya somehow or another took his backup car to the 10th starting position after slamming into the wall during practice, destroying his Target Chevrolet. His teammate, Jamie McMurray, will start right behind him in 11th. The two cars have been coming on as of late and should be a factor heading into the final months of the season.

In honor of Father's Day, a conversation with Ba.

Deep, navy sky surrounded us. Only the reflection of the moon and a peep of light gleamed from inside the house.
"Ba, do you want the light on?" I asked. To keep the house smelling new (and less likewhat we're eating), we always grilled and fried all our food outdoors.
"It's okay," he replied. Blue flames danced underneath the wok. He poured in the oil to coat the bottom of the pan.
How can you see what you're cooking? I wondered. But I didn't say anything, just watched my dad as he worked his magic. His wrist moved the spatula around like a magician's wand, evenly browning each piece of garlic.
"During the Khmer Rouge… it was just like this. Every night, you do what you can, by the light of the moon. No other light. That's it," Ba began.
I envisioned my dad fleeing through the black night of Cambodia, escaping death. No compass. No map. No directions. Only the sun, the moon, and a heart destined for freedom. How did he survive? How on earth did he make it here, alive? Continue reading

Jolly continues to court black vote
Outgunned on TV and with a smaller pile of campaign cash, U.S. Rep. David Jolly is trying to cut into what most observers assumed would bedrock support for former Governor Charlie Crist.
For the last two weeks, Jolly's efforts have been focused in Midtown, Childs Park and other African-American neighborhoods in St. Petersburg, added to the 13th Congressional District in a court-ordered redraw last year.
Much of that effort has been negative--with TV ads and door-hangers reminding voters of Crist's one-time support for chain gangs..
When Jolly brought the issue up at the one debate between the two in September, the normally-courtly Crist upbraided him --"I'm embarassed you'd say that about a fellow Floridian," Crist told Jolly.
But Jolly has doubled down on the strategy. On Monday, his campaign announced the endorsement of the sister and brother-in-law of the late Harry Singletary, Florida's first black prison director.
Framed by a grainy 1995 black and white newspaper photo of Crist standing near kneeling chain-gang prisoners, the statement by Terrye Singletary and Rudy Bradley, a former Pinellas County state representative, runs below: …Full Story

Sena backs DIG Sunil Paraskar; says slapping rape charges is now a 'fashion'
On Saturday, the Shiv Sena came out in full support of Deputy Inspector General (DIG) of police Sunil Paraskar, who has been accused of rape by a model, and cast aspersions on the victim's character.
Also read: DIG-model rape case - Now, bomb suit supplier's name crops up
DIG Sunil Paraskar who has been accused of rape by a model
The editorial in Saamna, the party's mouthpiece, stated that the Sena wants the Mumbai police to open its eyes as it thinks that the common man has seen through the victim's allegations but the police is unable to do so.
It also stated, "Character assassination has become a weapon to destroy someone's reputation in politics and the government. The law sides with women but if someone is misusing it then the court should look at it in a different way."
It also said that the victim's background needed to be checked and questioned the validity of the victim's allegation against Paraskar and asked, "It took the girl six months to realise that she has been raped?"
Also read: Rape accused DIG Sunil Paraskar may undergo lie detector test
Defending the editorial, Aditya Thackeray, head of Yuva Sena, youth wing of Shiv Sena, took to social networking sites and said, "The editorial, taking cue from the rape accusations on a senior police official, states that in such cases, before painting someone as a rapist, the media must wait for the court's verdict. Media trials are a tool to defame public figures, and break familiesof private individuals."

If there are teams in my league that are not participating, is there a way to have someone else take over their teams? There are teams in my league that we have not heard anything from since they signed in to the league.
bullwhipsmith 1 decade ago
Is there a way that you can email them as the site director and if they do not reply open the team for a new owner. I do not like the idea of being stuck in a league for the next 16 weeks that only a handful of guys are playing in.
fleafounder Admin 1 decade ago
I like that idea a lot. But I think banning them is a bit harsh.
Maybe if they don't reply, it makes their team available to new owners.
I really like that idea. I think it could work well.
Thanks for the suggestion.
BurnsvilleKevin 1 decade ago
The only way you can fix this problem is to send a e-mail to the non functioning teams owners and give them a couple days to rspond and if they don't open up the teams for someone else to own or just leave them alone and hope they don't bring your league down, (I have the same problem in my baseball fantasy leagues). To cure the problem if the person doesn't respond can you have them BANNED from this site? Maybe that might cure them but I doubt it.
fleafounder Admin 1 decade ago
Hi Todd,
Currently there is not way to do this, but I agree with you that it is indeed a serious problem in public leagues.
If you or anybody else has suggestions on how to deal with this issue in a fair manner, I'd love to hear them.

Tsunami strike risk for Hong Kong and Macao
Hong Kong and Macao are enormous, sprawling economic centres perched on the coast. And both stand a 10 per cent chance of being hit by a serious tsunami in the next century, warn geophysicists. The warning follows a new assessment of how earthquakes along the nearby Manila trench could radiate tsunami waves across the South China Sea.
Although Chinese records of tsunamis date back to AD 171, the hazard was largely ignored until the cataclysmic Sumatra tsunami in 2004. However, the structure of the complex plate boundary on the eastern side of the South China Sea, running from Taiwan to the Manila trench, makes shallow subduction-related quakes particularly likely. This problem was highlighted by the quake in December 2006 that hobbled internet traffic in the region when it ripped through subsea data cables. Such earthquakes could also trigger tsunamis.
To assess the threat, Yingchun Liu of the Graduate University of

Wireless UWB HD video: Appendix A: Test methodology
Post a comment
Performance validation involved the following steps:
- Bench-top validation of the data converters
- Bench-top validation of radio performance
- Validation of system performance
Validation of data converters and radio performance was done in collaboration with a Radiospire engineer by observing the test waveforms and the recovered data captured by a logic analyzer and processed by the Radiospire test software.
The transmit and receive units were separated by 12 to 15 feet with the couch obstructing the path between the two ends of the airlink (Figure 10).
Click here for Figure 10.
Figure 10: Radiospire system test setup photo.
The antenna used on the Radiospire reference design was the UWB chip antenna from Fractus SA (FR05-107). The antenna was connected via coaxial cable and was mounted on a block of foam making it easy to rotate it around and point it up or down. The cart itself was also rotated to the 0°,90°, 180°, and 270° positions (Figure 11).

WASHINGTON - Michael K. Powell has tackled thorny issues involving media ownership rules, phone competition and the Internet as the nation's top communications regulator, but a "wardrobe malfunction" got him the most attention.

Powell announced Friday that he will step down in March as chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, culminating a four-year tenure in which the Republican-controlled agency championed a generally pro-business agenda and dramatically stepped up enforcement of broadcast indecency standards.
Powell's departure had been expected, though the timing was a surprise. In an interview, Powell said he reached his decision over the holidays and looked forward to vacationing with his wife and two sons, aged 16 and 10.
Powell may be best known by the public because of the FCC's harsh response to Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction" during last year's Super Bowl halftime show. But Powell said he's proud of his efforts to promote new technologies such as high-speed Internet access and digital televisions. "Our principal passion is that we believed we should work hard to get the law right to stimulate innovative technologies that put more power into the hands of consumers," said Powell, son of Secretary of State Colin Powell, who also is leaving his job. "I felt very comfortable that we achieved most of what we set out to do."
Though he clashed often with the two Democrats on the FCC, all five commissioners have been united in seeking harsher penalties for violations of broadcast indecency standards.
