SHOWSEC share common goals with the Football Safety Officers' Association . . . and they have been important factors in our productive partnership.
The excellent relationship which has developed since the crowd management and event security specialists became the FSOA's main sponsor has been based on a strong commitment to taking crowd safety techniques to new levels and creating even safer environments within the country's football stadia across a wide range of events.
This has ensured that the partnership has been beneficial to both parties, while also enhancing the experience for the public using many stadiums.
Showsec have worked on a number of initiatives with the FSOA, most notably providing additional crowd management and stewarding support for clubs in need of it, and specialised training for staff seeking to broaden their skills and knowledge.
This has enabled the Company to increase its presence in football and to work with many clubs from the Premier League to non-league level.
A good example of this was securing a three-year contract with Championship club Rotherham United after helping out in the 2014-15 season.
There are many other instances of this initiative working well, such as when Halifax Town required assistance for an FA Cup tie against local rivals Bradford City and likewise when Chorley FC also staged a big local derby against Barrow.
Showsec can offer a wide range of services to football clubs, both on match days or for other non-football events held at stadiums.
These include:
*Crowd management plans
*Close protection
*Control room operations
*Enhanced searches
*Incident response teams
*Car park stewarding
*Ejection procedures
*Training courses
We offer a bespoke service to suit specific requirements, no matter how large or small the event may be.
If you would like more information, please contact 0116 204 3333 (Option 1) or visit our website at www.showsec.co.uk
The partnership with the FSOA has already made a significant contribution to the enhancement of public safety at sports stadiums the length and breadth of the United Kingdom, and therefore helped to improve the match day experience for football supporters.
With a new long term agreement now in place, Showsec will continue to work on initiatives with the FSOA which are focused on crowd safety techniques.
It will also give them a platform on which to develop a presence in the national game most notable for the fact that they have varying degrees of involvement with a number of Premier League clubs including the reigning champions Leicester City, this season's early pacesetters Manchester City, Stoke City, Crystal Palace and Sunderland.
But Showsec also operate at many other clubs at different levels throughout the Football League and have also worked with some non-league clubs.
Indeed, John Newsham, the FSOA's Business Development and Membership Manager, commented: "This new agreement with Showsec means we can look at helping the lower league clubs to benefit from being a member of this association.
"It is not just the safety and security advice which they can offer to our members, they can also provide operational support on occasions when these clubs may be faced with a big match that presents challenges in terms of crowd control."
"The excellence Showsec deliver in safety and security to many stadiums and the excellence they can still bring to other stadiums is of great benefit to us. It's one reason why we are delighted to have them on board for another five years."
He added: "Long may the partnership continue to grow and prosper for both parties, so that together we can put more back into the game.
"It will help to ensure that, wherever possible, people who go to football stadiums are as safe as they can be in the current climate."
Alan Wallace, Showsec's Regional Manager for the North, confirmed the new agreement in his address to the FSOA Conference, after which he also joined a panel of experts to take questions from representatives of many clubs.
He described the extended opportunity to work closely with the FSOA as "absolutely priceless" in terms of involvement in the game.
"While the FSOA may appear to be few in numbers, their influence stretches far and wide," said Wallace. "It's not just the 20 Premier League clubs at the top, but also the 92 Football League clubs and beyond that as well.
"Football is weaved into the fabric of every corner of daily life, so we are delighted that we have the chance to build on this partnership."
He added: "The benefit for us that we are brought into the inner circle where we can engage with very influential people in our industry.
"This is much more than just a sponsorship though, it is a partnership in which we are very committed to making a big contribution in terms further advances in crowd safety so supporters get the maximum amount of enjoyment out of the game."

THE DEVELOPMENT of Showsec's management team has taken more significant steps forward in an ongoing commitment to achieving the highest degree of excellence.
Four of the Company's Operations Executives have been awarded a Foundation Degree in Applied Professional Studies in Crowd Management, while the training of five managers will put them in a much stronger position to strengthen that infrastructure in the future.
Glen Stevenson, Simon Howard and Carlos Campbell donned gowns and mortarboards for a graduation ceremony which took place at the Derby Arena recently.
A fourth Operations Executive, Mark Norbury, has also received the Foundation Degree which represents another momentous landmark on their career journeys.
That development pathway is about to be enhanced by training being undertaken by a group of managers who will then be able to teach aspects of the Foundation Degree.
"Our partnership with the University of Derby's Business Centre means that we are constantly looking at ways to remain at the forefront of management training in the industry," commented Keith Hackett, Showsec's Learning and Development Manager.
"The operational team has been further strengthened by the latest graduates acquiring a Foundation Degree and they are to be commended for their dedication and professionalism in combining those studies with an extremely busy workload.
"This Level 5 qualification means they are ready now to move on to greater things, making them potential candidates for the Area Manager's programme in the future."
Showsec work closely with the University of Derby's Business Centre to create a Training and Development programme which gives individuals the best-possible career pathway.
That has involved five managers taking a teacher training course recently; Alan Wallace, Joe Milner, Ieuan Fury and Tom Bailey, who all received a Bachelor of Arts Degrees in Applied Professional Studies in Crowd Management earlier this year, being joined by HR Manager Michelle Abdale.
"It is hugely beneficial to the progression of the business to be able to offer a quicker pathway to different levels of managerial qualifications and one way in which we can refine this programme is by doing a high proportion of the training in-house," added Hackett.
"Once these five managers have completed this teacher training, they will be in a position to offer that support for Years 1 and 2 of the Foundation Degree."
Hackett and Showsec's Managing Director Mark Harding attended the graduation ceremony at Derby Arena to see the Operations Executives receive their Degrees.

And this morning, I started to feel awful too.
I got up at 08:30, had to cancel my only morning-appointment, wrote an email to people saying "we might have to skip the New Year get-together at our place" and went back to bed. And slept until 15:00.
While I slept, I dreamt a somewhat crazy dream about:
- My Mom celebrating her 70th birthday. In Sweden, at one of my aunt's places.
- Me coloring my hair, because Mom said I had too.
- I did it while being very pregnant, which meant it was a chore.
- While doing this, Micke came along and also wanted his hair (read: beard) colored, and I somehow managed to do this and color his lips brown. Not pretty.

Cuba allowed two more freed political prisoners to leave the communist country for Spain on Tuesday a day after seven others did the same, dissidents and the Spanish embasssy here said.
That left 11 more still in Cuba out of 20 who have agreed to emigrate to Spain, of the total of 52 political prisoners Cuba has agreed to free in total in the next few months.
Journalists Normando Hernandez, 40, and Omar Rodriguez, 44, traveled out on an Iberia flight late Tuesday, said former political prisoners and prominent dissidents Martha Beatriz Roque and Oscar Espinosa, who were in phone contact with one of them.
The seven Cuban men flashed victory signs as they arrived at Madrid's Barajas airport earlier Tuesday on two separate commercial flights along with 33 family members after the biggest gesture by Cuba's communist government in a decade.
The seven dissidents, who are between the ages of 33 and 65 and who all have health problems, were sentenced in 2003 to prison terms of between 15 and 24 years.
Cuba agreed on July 7 to gradually free 52 political prisoners in a surprise deal between the Roman Catholic Church after a hunger strike to near-death by dissident Guillermo Farinas.
Havana wants to avoid a repeat of the death in detention of dissident Orlando Zapata on February 23 as it seeks closer international ties to improve its grim economic situation.
On learning of the surprise Church-State deal, psychologist and online journalist Farinas -- one of the regime's fiercest critics -- ended a more than four-month hunger strike.

Two senior congressional Democrats pointedly called on the Obama administration Tuesday to make the $700 billion financial bailout program more visible and accountable to taxpayers, with one complaining that the Treasury Department's approach to the fund is, "Don't ask, don't tell."
Rep. Edolphus Towns of New York, chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, and Sen. Max Baucus of Montana, who heads the Senate Finance Committee, insisted that Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner adopt recommendations from a government watchdog that the department has resisted.
"If Treasury does not put this information up on its Web site, this Committee will and if Treasury does not turn over this information voluntarily Secretary Geithner will be brought before the Committee to explain why not," Towns said.
The blunt criticism came as the oversight committee heard testimony from special inspector general Neil Barofsky, who oversees the massive Troubled Asset Relief Program. Barofsky on Tuesday delivered a quarterly report to Congress sharply critical of Treasury's reluctance to better track how federal bailout money is being spent.
"The Special IG's recommendations on transparency are critical to the success of the program, and I will be pressing the secretary of Treasury to adopt these standards," Baucus said.
Towns added: "The taxpayers now have a $700 billion spending program that's being run under the philosophy of 'don't ask, don't tell."
In his report, Barofsky said Treasury has accepted some of his recommendations for greater accountability, but that the department has not taken steps to require all TARP recipients to report on their actual use of funds. He said Treasury also should report the values of its investments in banks and other financial institutions, disclose the identity of borrowers under a nonrecourse loan program and disclose trading activity under a public-private investment fund.
Barofsky pointed out that in response to a survey by his office, banks were able to provide information on how they used TARP money even though Treasury has declined to seek similar information.
"The evidence is as we suspected," Barofsky said. "Contrary to Treasury's suggestions, banks can and should be required to report on how they're using funds."
Barofsky also cited accountability weaknesses in a new public private investment fund initiated by Treasury that is designed to purchase mortgage-backed assets that have clogged bank balance sheets. The federal share of the program is $30 billion.
He said Treasury has declined to adopt a recommendation that would require the nine firms selected for the program to create an internal wall between the officials managing the government partnership and those handling the rest of the firm's work. The firewall would prevent a firm from generating profits in its other business as a result of knowledge gained from its purchase of toxic assets with the government.
Summing up the effectiveness of the $700 billion TARP, Barofsky said:
"If the goal was to remove $700 billion of toxic assets off the books of financial institutions, that clearly has not happened. If the goal was to increase lending, I think that, too, unfortunately has not happened. If the goal was to avoid a complete systemic collapse of the financial industry, that may very well have happened."
Barofsky said he doubted that the government would recoup all of the money spent from the $700 billion fund.
"The idea of getting dollar for dollar return would be extremely unlikely," he said.
Barofsky defended his conclusion that the government's total potential exposure to assist the financial sector could total $23.7 trillion – about $10 trillion more than the size of the entire U.S. economy. The figure includes programs run by the Federal Reserve, Treasury and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.
He acknowledged that actual government spending on the financial sector peaked at $4.7 trillion and now stands closer to $3 trillion.
"The important caveat is we don't have $23.7 trillion outstanding right now," he said.
Still, Treasury spokesman Andrew Williams called the figure "inflated" and said the estimate "does not provide a useful framework for evaluating the potential cost of these programs. "
The estimate, however, does not account for the fees and other costs that some of these programs charge and for the collateral that many of the programs require that participants provide. It also includes programs that have been canceled.
For instance, Barofsky assigned $6.8 trillion in potential exposure to the Federal Housing Finance Agency, which oversees mortgage giants Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and the 12 federal home loan banks. However, losses of that magnitude would require every homeowner with a Fannie or Freddie guaranteed mortgage to default and the value of the homes drop to zero.

Graphic Design Trends That Won't Go Out of Style
Even though graphic design trends constantly change there are some trends that never go out of style. Today in this article we are going to discuss some the "never-going-out-of-style-trends". From websites to business cards, and all things in between, designs needs to be interesting and enticing. Enlisted below are graphic design trends that won't go out of style.
Let's get started;
Minimalism in Design
The biggest brands in the industry take use of minimalism in graphic designing. They do so because minimal designs are easily floated in the market and remain in the minds of people for a longer period of time. They use it to simplify their brand identity.
Minimalism in design has changed a lot over the course of time but went out of style. Why? because it communicates a clear purpose in a modern, concise style.
The White Space
White space is a powerful tool when it comes to rendering unmatched designs in graphics. It goes hand in hand with minimalism and many big brands have welcomed it. The white space when incorporated in design de-clutters the space, in other words, reduces noise.
Bold Colors
Minimalist design and white space contribute to your message by taking away the unnecessary, needless clutter that can overwhelm it. When one talks about the latest graphic design trends the answer to all comes as- displaying bold colors. Perhaps the best way to stay timeless with this trend is to combine the old with the new.
Nostalgic Design
Our longing for the past is the main reason why nostalgic designs work. The past has a power all of its own and our desire to relive it, or bring part of it with us is innate. Nostalgic designs have an emotional pull that goes far beyond the surface, and in graphic design, evoking those cherished emotions is something that will never go out of style.
Visual Design
This is one design trend that can never get out of style. People have evolved to become highly visual, they love to watch and evaluate. Visuals are a great source to attract tons of visitors to your website or page or logo etc. This trend creates massive engagement and hence can never be out of style. Hence, whatever business you are in, you'll want to incorporate some powerful visual elements into your graphic designs.
Customized Illustrations
Today, no business can afford to have a basic look and feel to their branding. Everyone is looking for something unique and specific which they can call theirs. Customized illustrations are the new and evolving trend that is sure to overtake the market of the day. And, with competition in most business markets only set to increase over the coming years, this trend is here to stay.
Varying Typography
Bold typography plagued throughout great copy to grab the eye; big, bold fonts to capture attention- a mix of fonts across the platform. This can be used to emphasize individual titles or to establish a hierarchy of information on your website or page.
These were the 7 Graphic Design Trends That Won't Go Out of Style. Well, these are here to stay. There might some other trends according to you that might also rule the market of the graphic design. If you feel that you know such trend(s) please mention them in the comment below and help us update our list of Graphic Design Trends That Won't Go out of Style.
Also, let us know if you really feel that the above-mentioned trends would last. Hope this article was of help. Happy Designing!

Prime Minister David Cameron laid a wreath Thursday at the site of a brutal Korean War battle in which dozens of British troops died, as Britain commemorated its war dead on Remembrance Day.
Ahead of a G20 summit in the South Korean capital, Cameron went to Gloster Valley, at Solma-ri north of Seoul, where British troops were defeated by Chinese forces during the Battle of the Imjin River in 1951.
Some 59 troops died defending the site, while another 34 later died in captivity.
Their actions are thought to have delayed the Chinese advance and meant that allied forces were later able to prevent a direct assault on Seoul.
Cameron laid a wreath of poppies at the memorial -- named after the troops of the 1st Battalion, Gloucestershire Regiment who fought there -- and spent a few moments in quiet contemplation.
Speaking later at the start of a meeting with South Korean President Lee Myung-Bak, Cameron said he had "very much enjoyed" the visit which had offered "a reminder of the very close links between our countries".
US President Barack Obama was scheduled to attend a Veterans Day memorial event on Thursday in Seoul, as Europe and the United States commemorated the end of World War I on November 11, 1918, and their other war dead.
The G20 summit formally gets under way with a dinner later Thursday.

- Brumbies, Raiders and racing combine for 'triple whammy'
- French connection: Montpellier becomes new base for former Brumbies
- Gentle Brumbies giant Tyrel Lomax ready to make his own name
ACT Brumbies boss Michael Jones says the club hasn't "abandoned its history" by unveiling a new jersey, calling for calm among the supporter ranks after the blue playing strip divided opinion.
The Brumbies have scrapped their traditional white torso in favour of three shades of blue with a gold collar and patches under each arm.
The white strip will be brought back next year in an away-jersey design as part of a four-year plan to revamp the Brumbies' appearance.
Fans dissected the jersey with wide-ranging feedback, mostly underwhelming, to the all-blue strip which is similar to the alternate jersey worn in the 2011 season.
"There are people out there who are saying that this is a break from tradition – we've taken the white away and it doesn't look like the traditional jersey," Jones said.
"We're far from that; we think it has a good link to the past. The pattern in it has the stripes. We've got a four-year rolling idea for the jersey and we'll go back to white.
"This year it's a new look – I want the guys to look fresh and different. They're going to look pretty mean and enforcing to reinforce that we're serious about this year. This is the year we have to win the Super Rugby title.
"We don't want Brumbies fans to think we've abandoned our history. We're really proud of our history, it's in the neck lining and everything we're doing. We want our supporters to get behind that.
"We're trying to make this year the biggest for the Brumbies. We wanted to match that with a whole new look for our second 20 years."
The Brumbies have had white on their jumpers since the start of Super Rugby in 1996, tinkering with designs which have always involved blue, white and gold.
The new jersey also carries the message: "A proud history. A passion for excellence."
It will be worn at home games with an alternate yellow strip available for colour clashes.
Jones admitted there was a fine line between changing the jersey design while upholding Brumbies tradition.
Fan reactions came pouring in with a wide range of opinions, but the Brumbies sold their first jersey just one minute after they went on sale at 12pm.
"For us, the jersey is a big thing but it's the guys inside it and what we feel as an organisation – none of that has changed," Jones said.
"We certainly haven't betrayed our history – we're embracing it as we go forward."
Prop Allan Alaalatoa said a new jersey signalled the Brumbies' intentions to rise to a new level and win the Super Rugby championship for the first time since 2004.
"I like [the jersey] ... they say the darker the colour the skinnier you look, so that's good for us props," Alaalatoa said.
"The jersey hasn't changed in my two years ... I feel like we're going to continue the Brumbies name ... we have been close but we want to go one step further."
Back-rower Jarrad Butler said: "Change is good sometimes and in this circumstance I think it's a good thing. Everyone was pretty excited and enthusiastic about something different and hopefully that reflects in how we play."
What do you think of the ACT Brumbies' 2016 jersey?

sort by best latest
I don't think anyone on here can tell you what it means because there may not even be enough information right now for the doctor to know what it means, if anything.
The doctor is really the one you need to ask because s/he is the best one to tell you what s/he means. Much of the time, doctors see something and don't know, themselves, whether it means anything or not. Much of the time they need to do further testing to see if there's really a problem at all and be able to tell the mother how any complication may be treated.

text: The Majestic America Line, specializing in river and coastal cruising, has opened offices in Seattle. The newly formed line is operated by Ambassadors Cruise Group LLC, a subsidiary of Ambassadors International Inc. of Newport Beach, Calif. Majestic will have a staff of roughly 800, though only about 50 of them will be based in the line's headquarters at Fourth Avenue and Blanchard Street, company officials said.. The group was formed by merging Portland-based America West Steamboat Co., which was acquired in January, and New Orleans' Delta Queen Co., bought in April. It is expected to provide 75 percent of the annual revenue for Ambassadors International, which also operates a travel-and-events division and a marine-services division. None of the group's six ships will be renamed, as that's considered bad luck, Giersdorf said. The merged cruise lines are slated to begin operating under the new name later this year.

(NaturalHealth365) Homeopathy is contentious. Those who are passionate about it share their direct experience of how it works safely and effectively. On the other side, those who believe it's scientifically impossible speculate that its practise may even be a deliberate and intentional fraud.
Skeptics stress the homeopathic preparation of most remedies involves so much dilution that not a single molecule of the original substance remains. Despite this, some scientists, even those with no love for Homeopathy, have shown the original substance has effects even after this process.
Pioneers of science – recognize them by the arrows in their backs!
The best known was a French immunologist, Jacques Benveniste. While he was working for the French National Institute of Health and Medical Research, Benveniste diluted a solution of human antibodies until not a single molecule remained. Provided the solutions were shaken vigorously, just as homeopathic preparations are, Benveniste found that when human basophils were added to these solutions they reacted as if the original antibody was still there.
Two years after publishing his findings – he lost his job and research funding. In 1999, scientists led by Professor Madeleine Ennis (Queen's University, Belfast) claimed they had replicated Benveniste's results. Sadly, he died in 2004.
The main researcher in this area is now former Nobel prize-winner, Luc Montaignier. He recently confirmed that homeopaths are right, serial dilutions are "not nothing" because the dilutant, somehow, remains imprinted with the original substance. He has now moved his laboratory and research team to China, to avoid those who were trying to influence or suppress his work.
It can't be true, because… it just can't be true
Often when others try to replicate these findings they are unable to do so, perhaps due to a phenomenon called 'plausibility bias.' This refers to a prejudice where observers are unable to accept that homeopathy works, no matter what the evidence, until they know exactly how it works.
Dr.Peter Fisher, Clinical Director of the Royal London Homeopathic Hospital, and Physician to Queen Elizabeth II notes that: "Plausibility bias obstructs a fair evaluation of the evidence around homeopathy … new research in homeopathy, if positive, may have limited impact on practice until a plausible theoretical framework is established."
It can't be true, so it must be placebo…
Those with this mindset believe that any benefit users experience must be due entirely to placebo effect. However, this effect fails to explain why animals, babies, small children and skeptics, respond beautifully to a well-chosen homeopathic remedy or why a poorly-selected homeopathic remedy has little lasting effect.
The Double Blind Bind
A further research complication is that true Homeopathy does not fit well into the double blind method. Many trials of homeopathy, including those which found benefits, have been unsatisfactory. In the double blind model, the first group takes sugar pills whle the second group take an identical homeopathic remedy (e.g. diluted grass pollens to treat hay fever). In practice, a homeopath would interview each member of the second group about their precise symptoms and then give each one an individually selected remedy.
Is Homeopathy right for you?
When you are trying to find a reliable approach to help you return to health a measure of skepticism is advisable. On the other hand, ignoring empirical evidence from millions of people around the world who are certain that their well being is due to Homeopathy would be a mistake. One of the easiest ways for you to see if Homeopathy works is to simply try it. Afterall, it's hard to argue that the healthiest mind is an open one.
Next week we'll take a look at how you can tell whether or not your holistic health treatment, be it homeopathy or any another modality, is working.

MLB players are some of the most eccentric professional athletes, but I think that Tampa Bay Rays closer Fernando Rodney may be taking the freedom a bit too far. The World Baseball Classic is a time for players to express the love for their country and Rodney is showing his love for a crooked cap.
Joe Maddon is the manager of one of the most laid back teams in the MLB in the Rays, as they're not regimented to keep their facial hair tidy or their caps straight. In fact, David Price has said that he wont play for the New York Yankees because of their clean-cut nature and strict rules. Price is an epitome of the liberty that is unique to the Rays.
Rodney's fashion statement has been in the works for some time as has been spread with two other teams since 2008. Skeptics believe that it all began in 2008 with the Detroit Tigers. The cap twist has gotten progressively worse and it hit a head on Thursday Night when Rodney was pitching in the WBC with a hat that's bill was facing towards first-base. I'm all for players making their own legacy, but I think there is a difference between being different and defying the game.
While he is walking the line, I think Rodney has to be careful moving forward given the gang-relations that this image is connected with.
Like it or not, it is a factor and it's something that I'm positive has gotten the attention of MLB commissioner Bud Selig who may be in a similar situation that NBA commissioner David Stern was in just a few seasons ago. For example, Allen Iverson was the reason that Stern decided to implement a dress code for players when they conducted post and pre-game interviews. I think this move has benefited the league tremendously, not to mention the impact dressing nice has had on the players.
I'm not calling Rodney a gang member, however the MLB has to step in on this matter before it gets taken to the extreme.

True Love lyrics
For a second I was in control
I had it once I lost it though
And all along the fire below would rise
And I wish you could have let me know
What's really going on below
I've lost you now, you let me go
But one last time
Tell me you love me
If you don't then lie
Oh lie to me
Remember once upon a time
When I was yours and you were blind
A fire would sparkle in your eyes
And mine
So tell me you love me
If you don't then lie
Oh lie to me
Just tell me you love me
If you don't then lie
Oh lie to me
If you don't then lie
Oh lie to me
Call it true, call it true love
Call it true, call it true love

Pass rushers boosting Washington's playoff bid
Washington seized the top spot in the NFC East with a big win against the Giants on Sunday. A big reason for their victory was the pressure they applied to Eli Manning.
The Redskins recorded a +6.7 pass rush grade as a team in that game, sacking him three times to go with six QB hits. Overall, they pressured Manning on 18-of-54 dropbacks. Although Washington lacks an elite player to push the pocket, their depth enables them to consistently run fresh bodies onto the field. None of their defensive lineman or edge defenders have pass rush grades worse than -0.3. The six defenders that have taken the majority of rush snaps have grades of +3.9 or better. Although they lack the star names, Washington has a good group up front.
Ryan Kerrigan isn't flashy, but he's a consistent pass rusher off the edge. His 31 hurries are seventh-most among outside linebackers, and he's added a further 10 quarterback knockdowns (seven sacks and three hits). Kerrigan's 41 combined pressures are eighth-most, too. Overall, he has a pass rush grade of 78.5 (+6.9).
Washington opted against re-signing Brian Orakpo this offseason, and in hindsight, that decision looks like the correct one. It's not that Orakpo is playing poorly, necessarily (he has a 77.6 pass rush grade this season), but 2014 second-round pick Trent Murphy has improved significantly. After recording a -2.1 grade as a rookie pass rusher, he has a 76.1 overall grade this year, having recorded three sacks, three hits, and nine hurries. In fact, Washington invested consecutive second-round picks in edge rushers, adding Preston Smith with the 38th overall pick this April. He's flashed serious ability as a rookie with three sacks, two hits, and 15 hurries so far this year. Smith is the third of Washington's outside linebackers with a pass rush grade of 74 or better (74.3).
The highest graded pass-rushing Redskin is on the interior. Jason Hatcher has been terrorizing guards in the NFC East for nearly 10 years now, and he's having one of his best seasons in 2015. Despite recording a solitary sack, Hatcher has an additional eight hits and 29 hurries. His 85.1 pass rushing grade is ninth-best in the league amongst interior defenders, and he holds the fifth-best pass rush productivity ranking amongst 3-4 defensive ends. Partnering with him, Chris Baker has also contributed as a pass rusher, even if his strength is defending the run. He's more boom-or-bust, having recorded more QB knockdowns (13) than hurries (12), but his 77.9 rush grade illustrates the impact he can make when opposing teams look to pass.
Finally, the addition of Stephen Paea continues to look like a shrewd move. He's made plays as a nickel rusher with three sacks, three hits and eight hurries and a 75.9 grade.
Granted, the Giants were missing four of five starters on the offensive line on Sunday, but Washington still had to take advantage. Taking an early lead was crucial, as it forced Manning to be more aggressive downfield, and enabled their pass rushers to crank up the heat. Although they might not have any players traveling to Hawaii come season's end, Washington has a very strong pass rushing unit—it may end up being the key reason they win the NFC East.

Serialization for Azure Managed Cache Service
Updated: August 25, 2015
|Microsoft recommends all new developments use Azure Redis Cache. For current documentation and guidance on choosing an Azure Cache offering, see Which Azure Cache offering is right for me?
Microsoft Azure Cache supports three different modes of serialization. Each item that is stored in the cache must first be serialized into a persistent stream. Each item that is retrieved from the cache must be deserialized back into its object format. This topic describes the serialization options available in caching.
The following table describes the three serialization types.
|Configuration Setting
Serializes objects with the NetDataContractSerializer class. This is the default.
Serializes objects with the BinaryFormatter class.
Serializes objects using a custom serialization class provided by the application.
If no serialization option is specified, caching uses the NetDataContractSerializer. Note that any classes that are stored in the cache must be marked as Serializable.
In the configuration file, you can specify the serializationProperties element as a child of the dataCacheClient element. The following example demonstrates a dataCacheClients section with two named cache clients. The default cache client uses the default serialization, and the second cache client specifies binary serialization.
<dataCacheClients> <dataCacheClient name="default"> <!-- Other configuration settings for cache omitted --> </dataCacheClient> <dataCacheClient name="binaryConfig"> <serializationProperties serializer="BinaryFormatter" /> <!-- Other configuration settings for cache omitted --> </dataCacheClient> </dataCacheClients>
The following example shows how you would access each of these cache client configurations in code.
// "default" cache client configuration, "default" cache: DataCache cacheTest1 = new DataCache(); cacheTest1.Put("test", "test"); // "binaryConfig" cache client configuration, "default" cache: DataCache cacheTest2 = new DataCache("default", "binaryConfig"); cacheTest2.Put("test", "test");
Custom serialization requires additional coding. For more information, see How to: Use a Custom Serializer with Azure In-Role Cache.
|The programmatic equivalent of the serializationProperties element is the DataCacheSerializationProperties class. The properties on this class correspond to the same three serialization types. This enumeration is assigned to the DataCacheFactoryConfiguration.SerializationProperties property.
|The ASP.NET providers for caching do not support binary or custom serialization types.

US drone strike kills 22 Taliban in Kandahar
US drone strike kills 22 Taliban in Kandahar
KANDAHAR CITY (Pajhwok): At least 22 militants were killed in an overnight US drone strike in the Shah Walikot district of southern Kandahar province, an official said on Monday
Kandahar police spokesman Zia Durrani told Pajhwok Afghan News the Sunday's night airstrike was carried out in cooperation with the Afghan forces.
He said the drones targeted the rebels in their hideouts in Kata Sang locality of Shah Wali Kot district amid an ongoing clearing operation to reopen the Kandahar Uruzgan highway.
The Taliban closed the road 45 days ago by emplacing landmines after attacking security posts and capturing them, but now security forces have intensified their efforts to reopen the road.
Durrani said local people and security forces had so far suffered no causalities during the operation and the drone strike.
Shah Walikot district chief Haji Abdul Ghani said the landmines on the highway had been detected and neutralized as part of the operation aimed at purging the area of insurgents.
The Taliban have not yet commented in this regard.

UTEP coach Mike Price received a vote of confidence at the end of last season when athletic director Bob Stull said he saw potential in the players coming back for 2010. But that vote of confidence will only last so long. The Miners were 4-8 last year with wins over Houston and Marshall, both bowl teams, but the problem for the Miners was consistency on both sides of the ball and a defensive system they didn't have the players to run. The defensive scheme will be corrected this spring, but the consistency is still a question mark.
Here's a look at the strongest and weakest positions for UTEP heading into spring football:
Strongest position: Quarterback
Key returner: Senior Trevor Vittatoe (54.7 percent completion, 3,308 yards, 17 touchdowns, 13 interceptions)
Key departures: None.
The skinny: Vittatoe has been suspended for the first six practices of spring football, which will allow the Miners quarterbacking depth to develop. The backup quarterback position was going to be one of the more intriguing battles of the spring, and now it will be even more prominent. Senior James Thomas II, who has the most experience, also will miss spring practices with an injury leaving the battle for backup between sophomore Tim Curry and redshirt freshmen Carson Meger and Andy McCloud.
Weakest position: Defensive line
Key returners: Defensive end Robert Soleyjacks (19 tackles, one sack, four tackles for loss)
Key departures: Defensive end Aaron King (37 tackles, 4.5 sacks, 7.5 tackles for loss), nose tackle Steve Riddick (29 tackles, one sack, four tackles for loss)
The skinny: The defense is undergoing a total overhaul with new defensive coordinator Andre Patterson scrapping the 3-3-5 the Miners have run the last two seasons and installing a 4-3 base. With just one defensive lineman returning and an additional tackle being added to the line, there will be a lot of competition this spring. The Miners defensive line was one of the least productive in the country. It averaged just 1.25 sacks per game and teams averaged 200.83 rushing yards per game.

In an effort to attract younger travelers to its properties (and compete with Airbnb), Marriott has enlisted four social media "influencers" to record their experiences at four popular Marriott destinations in New York City, Dubai, Seoul, and Berlin. The campaign, "Six Days, Seven Nights," kicked off April 1 and will air regularly on Marriott Rewards Snapchat, Facebook, and YouTube channels. Each installment in the series is partially recorded using Snapchat Spectacles. Instead of a standard 10-second Snapchat video ad, Marriott has created 3-minute "snapisodes" to promote its Marriott Rewards program, writes Nikki Gilliland on Econsultancy. She notes that in 2016, almost half of Airbnb users were reported to be between 18 and 34, while only 28% of hotel guests who booked with Marriott online were Millennials. The next 3 installments will premiere roughly a month apart.

Bramble provides ample screen shot examples in her article as she provides advice on how to: 1) create a Facebook Story; 2) edit a Facebook Story; 3) see who has viewed it; 4) respond to replies; and 5) market with Facebook Stories. She also has a section called "Key Considerations for Marketers."
A wide-ranging study of 1,000 consumers looked at how frequently they plan to dine out in the next 12 months; how they view and engage with technologies such as loyalty programs and mobile; meal delivery preferences; wage hikes for employees; and growth prospects and challenges by type of restaurant. Some interesting findings include:

Oh the tears I've cried over the last (nearly) twenty-four hours. Lis Sladen, though I never met her, was so bloody important to me. I've cried more for her than I have for most other people who've passed on. In fact, I only know four I've cried as much for Jon Pertwee, my horse Ruby, my nan, and my dad. And I'm forty so I've seen my fair share of dying.
Then my lovely versions of the characters we know and love, started poking me in the side. Living in my head, they knew and they were grieving too. Cuddled together, taking comfort in one another. It made me smile. So I went to bed, got up and all of the sudden Oliver announced that he, Sarah and the muse had something they needed me to write.
And so I did.
As always this all belongs to the BEEB. I don't think, this time, they'll mind me borrowing it. It probably won't make much sense unless you've read Taking in Strays. Please feel free - some have told me it's a lovely way to cheer up. Oh and there are minor spoilers here for future events there.
As he always was, Oliver was hyper aware of Sarah's every movement in their bed, especially as she started stirring while having a bad dream.
"Sarah," he sat up and stroked her shoulder, which stilled her.
"I don't want to go," she whimpered, still in sleep.
Oliver's brow furrowed. "You don't have to go anywhere, Sarah. Come on now, wake up." His gaze held more concern now until her beautiful eyes opened and she looked up at him. "Hello." He brushed the bangs from her face and waited.
"I had a nightmare I think." She pulled herself up beside him and took a deep breath as he wrapped his arms around her. "I don't remember much. Just impressions, fragments really. It was time for me to, well, go." She paused and looked up into his eyes, unwilling to say the words. "And I didn't want to. Even though I was in pain, I didn't want to leave my family."
"Shhhh!" He always knew this was a possibility, even one that he didn't like to face, given they were taking the slow path together, but he was younger, she was older. There'd been a few amusing incidents and some insulting ones because of that lone fact. He twisted the golden band on his finger, not wanting to think of a life without her, though he knew he would go on when the time came, taking care of their family. "It's not going to happen."
"It could," she said insistently. "I'm not exactly a spring chicken."
"And tomorrow I could get hit by a bus or shot." He grinned as her hand pressed across his mouth.
"Don't say it." She looked at him threateningly then her brow furrowed. "I don't think it was me though, in the dream. Except it was, yet it wasn't. It felt so very odd. I got the impression that I felt as though I was letting so many people down."
"Now that's just silly Sarah Jane Smith. And aren't you glad I decided to keep using Smith as a last name?" Oliver rolled his eyes at her. "You or the person in your dream, could never let anyone down. Not even if you had to, as you say, go."
He paused, locking gazes with her before continuing. "You're amazing, Sarah. You've done so much. Even if you didn't do another thing for the rest of your life, you've already given so much. Of course, we know that isn't going to happen. And this other you, or not you, whether she knew it or not, did more than she knew. Whether it was for one person, two important people in her life, or for the entire world. If she has gone, then people all over the world are mourning her. Everyone whose lives she touched, whether they really knew her or not don't think she let them down. Not one iota." He tapped her nose.
"Do you really think so?" Sarah cocked her head and looked out their bedroom window, the moonlight reflecting off her hair and in her eyes.
"Of course I do," he nodded slowly. "It's like ripples in a pond, Sarah, so how couldn't I? Believe it, I mean. We're all linked one way or another." He took a deep breath, breathing her scent in and pushing away any thoughts of what came at the end of the slow path.
"Just remember though, even though that you, or rather not you is gone, think about the universe the Doctor left Rose in. There she'd gone and Mickey too. But there, you were happy with Peter. You go on here with me, and I'm not about to let you go any time soon, even if I had to prostrate myself in front of the Doctor and Captain Jack to keep you with me. And in a thousand other worlds, in a thousand other universes, there has been and always will be a Sarah Jane Smith. Keeping the dark away, whether for a chosen few or for many."
There was silence for a moment and he could see the reflection of the moonlight in a tear rolling down her cheek. "Do you think we could go outside into the garden for a bit? I think I'd like to say goodbye to her too. I can't help thinking she was very important to me too."
"Course we can." He smiled softly then swung from the bed and offered her his hand and helped her up. "And tomorrow, we'll take Bessie and go up to Oxford to visit Luke. Take the entire family up."
"I love you, Oliver Smith," Sarah murmured as she allowed herself to be pulled up into his arms.
"And I love you, my Sarah Jane," Oliver grinned back.
"Coming down?" She asked as she moved to retrieve her dressing gown and wrapped it around herself.
"Give me a moment," he smiled reassuringly then gestured at his boxers. "Need to put on a pair of sweats if we're going outside." He watched silently as she nodded much the way she had when she'd left the TARDIS all those years ago, and then walked from the room.
He slowly moved to the window and looked out into the stars. A tear fell from his eye as his mind, still partially Gallifreyan and aware of more than he would ever say, brought him the sad knowledge that Sarah's half remembered dream didn't provide her.
"Goodbye, Elisabeth," he whispered softly as the name of this other woman that he owed so much to came into his mind unbidden. "And thank you, ever so much for giving me my Sarah Jane."
RIP Lis Sladen 1948 - 2011. We miss you.


text: Northrop Grumman Corporation reported 2001 fourth quarter economic earnings of $158 million, compared with $106 million for the same period of 2000. On a per share basis, the company reported 2001 fourth quarter economic earnings of $1.55 on average diluted shares outstanding of 98.0 million, compared with economic earnings of $1.46 on average diluted shares outstanding of 72.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2000. Under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), the company reported fourth quarter 2001 net income of $131 million, or $1.28 per share, compared with net income from continuing operations of $144 million, or $1.99 per share, for the same period of 2000. The comparable decline reflects a substantial decrease in pension income and increases in interest expense and in the number of shares outstanding. For the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2001, sales increased to $4.3 billion compared with $2.2 billion reported for the fourth quarter of 2000. The increase is primarily due to the contributions of the three companies acquired in 2001: Litton Industries Inc., Newport News Shipbuilding and the Electronics and Information Systems group of Aerojet-General Corporation. Northrop Grumman's operating margin for the 2001 fourth quarter increased 25 percent to $314 million from $252 million for the same period last year despite a sharp drop in pension income. Pension income declined to $88 million from $128 million reported for the last three months of 2000. "Today's outstanding results validate our strategy to create a top-tier defense enterprise focused on our customers' current and future needs," said Kent Kresa, chairman and chief executive officer of Northrop Grumman. "Last year's strategic acquisitions -- which added some $8 billion in annualizedrevenues -- provided new core competencies and established a solid foundationfor future growth."

I've been pissing and moaning all year about how bad T Boone Pickens screwed UMass. How he bought our coach for his alma mater (which is noticeably better than they were a year ago under Alcohol and Pills Addict Jr.). I've really never shut up about it. UMass is sitting on ten wins, and without a win tomorrow night against George Washington will likely miss the Atlantic 10 tournament for the first time in 39,000 years (ever). However, that is nothing compared to the team I saw playing on ESPN tonight.
Kelvin Sampson massacred one of the most storied programs in history and left the team in ruins entering this season. Eric Gordon had declared for the NBA draft after his freshman year. DJ White graduated. Terrell Holloway transferred to Xavier. Eli Holman to Detroit Mercy. DeAndre Thomas was dismissed dismissed from the program. After ugly divorces from the school, guard Armon Bassett landed back with Mike Davis at UAB and Jamarcus Ellis is no longer with the team. Yet a group of walk ons and freshmen (two star freshmen at that) had the premier team in the Big Ten on the ropes for all but about 12 seconds of their game tonight.
I speak, of course, of Indiana, which appears it will end the season with six wins, one in the Big Ten. If I were to rank the programs in the Big Ten based on a tradition, it would look something like this:
1: Indiana
2: Michigan State
3: Illinois
4: Michigan
5: Purdue
6: Ohio State
7: Minnesota
8: Iowa
9: Wisconsin
10: Penn State
11: That team that has never been to the NCAA tournament.
Indiana is to the Big Ten as Kansas is to the Big XII, or as UCLA is to the Pac 10. To see them suffer like this is difficult. The amazing thing is that Assembly Hall is going nuts for this team. They love supporting these guys. It reminds be of a situation a few years back when St. John's had to dismiss basically their scholarship players (minus Kyle Cuffe) due to a sexual assault fiasco that occurred during a road trip in Pittsburgh. Much like Indiana, the once-proud program was a wreck. Much like Indiana, they managed to win one game in their conference, at home over Georgetown.
It was impressive watching guys who may not have been the best players on their high school teams giving Michigan State all they wanted. Sad to see them fall short, but fun to watch them compete at such a high level. It also serves as a reminder that the great programs, as tough as times can be, will always be back.

Several ways of Planting a Church. Two Categories. Modality models – The modality models for church planting all involve one local church giving birth to another.

Modality models – The modality models for church planting all involve one local church giving birth to another.
Sodality models – if the focus of the modality model is the local church, the focus of the sodality model is outside of the local church in a separate agency, either a denomination agency or a parachurch or even from independent endeavor.
Hiving off is the most common way of planting a daughter church. It simply means that the members of a local congregation are challenged to form a nucleus and at a predetermined time, these people will move out under the leadership of a church planter and become the charter members of a new congregation.
Colonization is a more radical form of hiving off. In the colonization the new church is planted in a different geographical area, meaning that the nucleus members will make a move and find new homes, new jobs, and new schools in the target community.
This will require a high level of commitment on the part not only of the church planter but the congregation who will join him.
Church adoption, like human adoption, means that someone else gives birth but the child becomes part of your family.
This model happens when a certain church can no longer support its operation and needs to be adopted by a bigger church in order to survive and revitalized.
While many of the births are planned by the parents, accidents still happen. It is also true with churches. Sometimes, the nucleus for a new church will break off from the parent church for reasons better described as carnal than spiritual. It may be from "theological shootout, personal conflict, leadership struggle or disagreement on priorities."
The satellite model is different than the previous models in that by design the new congregations are only semiautonomous. They continue to have an organic relationship with the parent church. Sometimes they are called annexes or branch churches.
In most cases, the senior pastor of the mother church or central church functions as the senior pastor of each of the satellites.
By definition, multi-congregational churches minister to several different ethnic groups. If properly managed, they are very effective in urban areas where many different minority groups live in geographical proximity to each other.
Some multi-congregational churches simply share facilities with ethnic congregations that maintain their own autonomy, while others go so far as to share the entire church administration equitably.
The concept here is that one local congregation, led by the same staff, with one membership roll and budget owns and occupies two or more church properties, holding weekly worship services at more than one.
On the other hand, multiple campuses have at times begun as the same church but ended up as separate churches.
A very common way of planting new churches is for a church planting agency to recruit, finance, and sponsor a team of workers to plant a new church.
During the training, recruits are sent to their chosen target locations to establish contacts with the people and begin the process of church planting.
God gifts and calls some very special people as catalytic church planters. Their ministry is to go into a new area, develop a nucleus for a new church, and then move on and do it again.
The biblical prototype of a catalytic church planter was the apostle Paul. When Paul established a new church, he doesn't stay there very long.
The founding pastor is sent out by the agency not only to build the nucleus but to pastor the new church for an indefinite period of time. Most of the times, they became the church permanent pastors.
Frequently, the founding pastor is bivocational or a tent-maker since the new church cannot immediately support them.
Independent church planters go out on their own to start new churches. They do not serve either a denominational or a parachurch agency. They have just sensed the calling of God in their lives to plant a church.
In recent years, a new and very effective model for planting new churches has been developing chiefly within the independent charismatic movement.
Many apostles have been founding pastors of new churches themselves; they work in team ministry and they use their local church as a base for church planting operations.

Walmart - 20 pack lead mechanical pencils
I went to walmart and I bought the 20pk of mechanical lead pencils of paper-mate and when I opened the pack which was sealed pack and I counted just 19 pencils and I was missing. I was so surprised that how this can be and I was searching for that one pencil here and there in my house but couldn't find it so if I go back to walmart and tell the issue then they will not believe me and will tell me that you stole it so I am trapped now :( I am completely confused that what to do now? Just let it go and don't ever take a step forward to improve someone's mistake?
Monetary Loss: $3.
Great Comment! Would You Like to Convert It Into Review?You will be able to edit the text before publishing.
Terms of Service
If you really want your pencil, take the package back to the store.When you are walking up to the store, realize that mistakes happen.
When you are standing in line waiting to be helped, smile. Its just a pencil. When you get up to the customer service counter, smile. Explain what happened, and be nice about it.
Did I mention that you should smile?
Wal-Mart employees get paid dirt wages to get walked all over by inconsiderate customers.Remember that when they take their uniform off, they are people just like you and will treat you the same way you treat them.
That isn't walmart's mistake you *** ***, that is the mistake of Paper Mate. A little piece of advice. Inspect your *** before purchase.
This obviously isn't Walmart's problem, you need to contact Paper-Mate to resolve this problem.
I can't believe you would raise a stink about missing one pencil It cost more to drive back to the store and complain, than the cost of the pencil.I also have many more important things to do than count the number of pencils in a package.
The only way I would count is if there were so many pencils missing that it was obvious that there were some missing, but one missing pencil isn't obvious. Furthermore, it isn't WalMart's fault, it is the manufacturers fault.
Mistakes happen.How about you worry about you lack of capitalization and spacing between sentences, instead of worrying about one missing pencil.

YOUNGSTOWN — Police are looking for a group of teen boys for the attempted armed robbery of a 57-year-old man walking on the South Side.
The man told police he was walking on Market Street near Avondale Avenue at 8 p.m. Monday when a group of four teens asked him for money. The man handed the group $2, but one boy pulled out a handgun and demanded more cash. The teenagers walked off after the man proved he had no more money.
The man told police the teen with the gun had assaulted him a few weeks ago.
