At the age of 22, Lisa Jakub had what she was supposed to want: She was a working actor in Los Angeles. She had more than 40 movies and TV shows to her name. She had been in blockbusters like Mrs. Doubtfire and Independence Day. She walked the red carpet and lived in the house she had bought when she was 15.
But something was missing. Passion. Purpose. Happiness.
Lisa had been working since the age of four, after a man approached her parents at a farmer's market and asked her to audition for a commercial. That chance encounter dictated the next 18 years of her unusual - and frequently awkward - life. She met Princess Diana...and almost fell on her while attempting to curtsy. She filmed in exciting locations...and her high school asked her not to come back. She went to fancy parties...and got kind of kidnapped that one time. Success was complicated.
Making movies, traveling the world, and meeting intriguing people was fun for a while, but Lisa eventually realized she was living a life based on momentum and definitions of success that were not her own. She battled severe anxiety and panic attacks while feeling like she was living someone else's dream. Not wanting to become a child actor stereotype, Lisa retired from acting and left LA in search of a path that felt more authentic to her.
In this funny and insightful book, Lisa chronicles the adventures of growing up in the film industry and her difficult decision to leave behind the only life she had ever known, to examine her priorities and to write the script for her own life. She explores the universal question we all ask ourselves: what do I want to be when I grow up?

It's raining in Bangkok. Hard.
As in horizontal raindrops, car alarms going off and tree branches whipping against the outer walls of my apartment.
Rainfall is the last thing Thailand's capital needs right now. Flooding has proven far worse than officials warned, driving thousands to evacuation centers. Even the headquarters of the government's own response agency -- the Flood Relief Operations Center -- is taking on water by the minute.
Those headquarters double as an evacuation center for roughly 3,500 evacuees. Both operations are run out of the city's domestic airport, called "Don Meuang."
I visited the airport earlier and was fortunate to get in when I did, when floodwaters were only nipping at the edge of the thoroughfare outside.
Hours later, the water had risen so fast that most taxi drivers were too wary to drive into the deluge. At that time, airlines had just suspended inbound flights, but there were still families with baby strollers fresh off airplanes waiting in long taxi queues to get home. The taxis, however, weren't coming. (I made it out by paying a stray motorbike taxi driver an extortionate fee.)
One terminal over, there were far less fortunate families. They'd fled districts flooded neck deep and were resigned to living in a massive tent city.
They too will likely need to flee once more to yet another evacuation center. Though they're safe on an elevated floor, the waters outside will make it increasingly difficult to keep that many displaced families supplied with basic necessities: water, diapers, toiletries and styrofoam boxes of pork and rice.
That the government sent evacuees to a shelter that would soon flood -- and set up its own flood relief center in the same compound -- will not inspire confidence.
Faith in the government's flood relief efforts is already miserably low; roughly 85 percent of Thais polled in mid-October said the Flood Relief Operations Center was unclear about which areas would end up flooded and which would not.
Here's the tent city, set up alongside abandoned ticket counters.
And here's a new arrival to the evacuation center, his pug at the helm of his canoe. He's seen here scolding the dog for trying to take an ill-advised swim.

Abdel-Rahman, A., Agelin-Chaab, M., Elfstrom, G., and Komar, J., "Integrated Aero-Thermal Testing of a Race Car in a Full Scale Climatic Wind Tunnel," SAE Technical Paper 2016-01-1588, 2016, https://doi.org/10.4271/2016-01-1588.
Wind tunnels with integrated aerodynamic and thermodynamic testing with yaw capabilities are not common. In this study however, an integrated aerodynamic and thermodynamic testing system with yaw capabilities is developed and applied in the climatic wind tunnel at the University of Ontario-Institute of Technology (UOIT). This was done by installing an incremental force measuring system (FMS) on the large turntable that features a chassis dynamometer. The testing system was utilized to implement an integrated aero-thermal test on a full-scale race car. An efficient testing protocol was developed to streamline the integrated testing process. The FMS was used to enhance the test car's stability, cornering speed, and fuel efficiency by using aerodynamic devices. These objectives were achieved by installing a high rear wing to increase the rear downforce, a modified front splitter extension to produce a front downforce gain, and front canards to contribute to drag reduction. In addition, a thermodynamic test was conducted to study the effect of yaw on upperbody and underbody temperature distribution during the car's operational condition. Temperature analysis from this test revealed that radiator performance was jeopardized in yaw. It also showed that some aerodynamic devices (such as a rear diffuser) can contribute negatively to the underbody cooling performance of the car. The implications of this study demonstrate that the climatic wind tunnel at UOIT is a viable tool for integrated motorsport testing, which can be used to achieve a significant competitive advantage.

The only time Derrick missed was about a week after he had his retina detach so I'm not even considering a teeny bit that he didn't ace this. It's been challenging, fun, hard, boring, fulfilling, exciting, tiring, exhilirating…part of me is sooooo glad it's over but there's a tiny part of me that knows I'm going to miss it. And I know I'll be catching myself searching for a suitable subject for the day for a long time to come. I want to thank all of you who have followed us & commented on our posts. If you enjoy photography, even a little bit, I'd highly recommend doing a P365. It changes the way you see things. So, for now, adios, amigo & amigas. Thanks for the memories!

Peace of mind while buying AGS certified diamonds
Diamonds are not just the girls' best friend, even the boys; at least the knowledgeable ones too, are attracted to diamonds. Many people have a deep passion for diamonds and they sell huge amounts of money on buying them.
Be it a pair of earrings, a diamond ring or even a pendant, the most precious stone in the world are always preferred over any other form of jewelry. However, what many buyers make a mistake of while buying diamond jewelry is that they do not follow a diamond grading chart.
What is diamond grading?
When diamond is mined, it is just a piece of stone. What gives it value are –
Weight or size.
These factors determine the final value of a particular piece. A diamond grading chart clearly defines where a particular piece is positioned in this chart. Thus, the right price of that piece is determined.
How does it help?
When you are buying a piece, it is very much essential that you pay only for what you are getting and not a penny more. Therefore, it is quite beneficial that you choose a good store and a reputed jeweler that sells only the AGS certified diamonds.
To make sure that the consumers are protected and are given what they are paying for, the American Gem Society or AGS and its members, some elite jewelers, test each and every single piece of diamond in laboratory, to determine its cut, clarity, color and weight. Thus its price is determined. Every good jewelry store sells their ornaments with this AGS certification.
Every piece should come with this certification, or at least the seller should show the certificate to the consumer. Petra Gems, an aspiring American jeweler conducting business through http://www.petragems.com/ sells only the AGS certified diamonds. This is a wisest decision for every buyer to buy only certified pieces.

One of the most common frustrations I heard from insurance clients in my 15 years of insurance production was that the premium is too high.
If you are an insurance producer, you probably hear things like………
- "Can we get a better price?"
- "Can you do any better?"
- "Why is it so expensive?"
- "Why did the price go up."
- "That's way too much."
I have discussed in previous blog posts about why all salespeople need to focus on selling "real value" and quit playing the price game.
Let's be real though. Our society loves to price shop. They want to feel like they are getting the "best deal."
Here's the good news. They also like to buy things.
There is nothing sexy or exciting about insurance, but that's not why people want (or need) to buy insurance.
In a nutshell, people buy insurance because they don't want to lose money they have earned…….period. They want to feel safe, secure, and confident you will be there at their time of need.
They don't want to lose their property, their investments, their jewelry, their income, their business, or their livelihood.
Maybe that's not exciting, but it sure seems important to me. Surely, buying insurance can't just be about price? Of course not.
So why are insurance salespeople so quick to drop their proverbial pants to find a better deal or a lower price?
Because most insurance producers don't believe in the "real value" they are providing. They don't believe in their product or service, company, or the value enough to have the customer fully buy in.
Most importantly, many insurance producers don't put a high enough value on themselves.
If you sell your products or services like everyone else, you probably don't have much value to offer anyway. That's why you default back to price.
Insurance products can protect clients for thousands or even MILLIONS of dollars. Yet, it is often sold much like a basic item on a shelf (Thanks Flo.)
If you are just getting a quote for someone, as in you are just collecting numbers and spitting them back out, you are no different from the other 15 agents in town. You are a commodity. You have no differential value. If you are really lucky, you may write the business………until they find someone cheaper.
So How Can Insurance Agents Provide Value?
Value is an over used term and often is sold in terms of the seller and not the buyer.
So what kind of things should you offer?
Before you start coming up with hundreds of items you think may be valuable to your customer, why don't you take a step back for a minute and analyze the situation.
What do your customers really want? Do you know?
My guess is probably not.
Why don't you ask them?
Starting today, make it a point to ask your customers what they value. Stop assuming what they want.
Talk to them in person, on the phone, via email, hold a luncheon, or use social media. Don't send out some survey no one will complete. Just ask.
Find out what they really want!
- Ask how you can best help them
- Listen intently
- Respond accordingly
- Solve their problems.
Yes, there will be people who will say they just want a lower price, but you may be surprised at other (non-price) issues.
You have an opportunity to rise above the murky waters of the price game. You just need to ask, listen, respond, and then start working your tail off.
If you are looking to build stronger relationships with your prospects and clients, you need to stop convincing and start connecting.
Question: What value are you bringing to your clients? You can leave a comment by clicking here.

The Random Part in Network Evolution
Economic behavior strives for efficiency. Therefore, also evolving network structures should be a result of such a goal-oriented behavior. Traditionally, networks were assumed to be only temporary phenomena, since the prevailing organizational forms that comply with the efficiency postulate are either firms or markets. Having a goal in mind, however, does not incur a set of unique choices of action, especially in situations under high uncertainty when engaging in invention networks. Consequently, there is no uniqueness in network structures. There is a random part in network evolution driven by generic mechanisms. A percolation model is used to model the generic development of invention networks. A Monte-Carlo simulation underlines the expectable patterns of network evolution. Moreover, it is tried to align the generic part of the story to the operant level where entrepreneurial behavior and market selection takes over the dominant role in network formation.

2.19 Don't be Sad
6 comments:
I really love Guy, who else in the house gets elbowed in the gut by the resident granny for talking baout cake at the wrong time? XPReplyDelete
I love that they had a party while they were still in mourning, it's like the family was trying to be strong together even if they didn't come out and say it.
I also like the fact that Guy and Tula are just weird friends and whether they become anything later is completely up in the air. It's fun to read about.Replies
His timing is just impeccable, isn't it?Delete
Yeah, and also because Paolo can't just let his daughter be sad and alone on her birthday!
They have known each other since they were toddlers, so I imagine people think of them like siblings. The Winterly family themselves do not, so they are weird friends. We'll see if anything develops from it!
Tula is a pretty teen! Although the first post-birthday screenshot looks kinda off, I don't know if it's just me seeing things but her face looks different/bloated there. Maybe just a silly sims expression.ReplyDelete
I wonder how Guy will be doing in high school, he's still so confused and it will only be tougher as he gets older.Replies
You are not seeing things, she pulled a weird face after aging up. If you look at the picture of her looking sad while Persis is brooding, you can see that she, Persis, and Xara have almost the exact same face. Hooray for genetic diversity /s.Delete
I wonder too! Not sure if he can handle a higher workload too well...
Wow, Tula is really good at manipulating her dad, and everyone else in the family. Is she really popular in school? She's a great actor, and picks just the right moments to put on the "tears". I'm getting worried for her generation (if she is your heir).ReplyDelete
Hope Paulo finds new love soon; this is just too sad.Replies
In game she knows all the kids but I think is only really good friends with Guy. If I remember right she has one or two other friends and some kids close to being friends. So decently well liked.Delete
She is a really good actress! We'll see how that develops...
I hope Paolo finds happiness, the poor guy :(

Yoshua Okón: Octopus
Inserted within the US tradition of civil war re-enactments, Octopus (2011) by artist Yoshua Okón offers an alternative presentation of the Guatemalan Civil War. Where usually such activities take place in historically significant locations by enthusiasts with no direct experience of the conflict in question, in this work the site is of symbolic significance.
The battlefield is relocated to US soil at a Home Depot parking lot in Los Angeles, and the conflict is performed by people who fought during the Guatemalan Civil War. The former soldiers are now members of the Los Angeles Mayan community, and they gather to look for work as day labourers in the same parking lot where this performance takes place.
The title, Octopus, makes reference to the nickname used in Guatemala for The United Fruit Company, UFCO (now known as Chiquita Banana), a US Company based in Guatemala and directly linked to the CIA-led coup and to the following civil war. Also presented is US (2005), a single channel animation originally created for the Monuments For The USA show.

IRVINGTON, N.J. (CBSNewYork) – The 10-part series, Understanding The Affordable Care Act, continues with a look at the grassroots effort under way in Irvington, N.J. to get the uninsured into the online exchanges.
On a hot August night, Irvington Mayor Wayne Smith opened his living room to volunteers from Enroll America, whose mission is to get the uninsured into the exchanges.
"This is critical. People need to know, to arm themselves with the appropriate information and that's why I asked my wife to open up our home so that we can spread the word throughout the community," Smith told Diamond.

Location-Ashland City, TN Reviews
Google-Absolutely great job installing my new opener. I would recommend oasis to anyone needing garage door service, install or maintenance.
Google-Phil was a breath of fresh air and very knowledgeable. His high level of professionalism is only matched by his honesty and customer-first mentality. He was timely and fair. I had Phil give me an estimate for a whole new garage door package... new door/opener/rollers.. basically everything. He told me my garage door was perfectly fine despite the age and didn't need replaced. He recommended a few minor repairs to the old door and provided a fair price. My garage door works like it's brand new now! I have found my go-to garage door guy for sure. I would definitely recommend him!
Google-i was very pleased with the installation of my new garage door. He was on time and very polite. He was very professional and trustworthy. i highly recommend his services to anyone needing a garage door.


text: Hey, Turfman, you'll let the cat out of the bag if you tell everybody this is all in fun! The only serious thought I actually have is that most of the posts in favor of drug testing seem to be coming from you southerners,we in the Great White North seem to be a little more laid back and have a live and let live attitude. Do you guys really have that bad a problem where you live? Do you REALLY have to stomp on peoples personal freedoms? If I really felt that an employee was blasted I'd just send him home or eventually fire his ass. No way would I ever agree to a drug test(which I would pass)just on principle. If I'm not willing to do it myself why would I subject anemployee to it?

Inspired by looking at lots of people's lampwork beads and going "ooooh, they look like little planets!" I knew I was able to get a swirly-cloudy effect in polymer clay, so I went for it. Each bead is inspired by one of the eight planets of the solar system. I was in two minds about including Pluto, which is now technically a "dwarf planet", but since I wasn't doing any of the other stuff floating about in the system I decided to stick to the planets proper.
Plus I'm lazy.
Anyway - picture! Not a great picture - Neptune is camera shy. I just couldn't get rid of that damn reflection (although perhaps taking my own advice and shooting in daylight would have helped ).
That's blue goldstone and Swarovski crystal for the rest of the
Opinions and critique welcome! You can tell me off about colours, but I still won't do it to scale - I actually want to be able to wear the damn thing

The Minnesota Vikings feel as if they're back in the playoff picture.
The Jacksonville Jaguars seem to be counting down the days until the season is over.
Although both teams looked mostly lost the past two months, the Vikings used a trip to Jacksonville to gain some much-needed confidence and maybe even turn around a season that went awry after a 5-0 start.
"We needed this one," receiver Adam Thielen said. "Our backs were against the wall."
Matt Asiata scored on a short touchdown run, Kai Forbath kicked four field goals and the Vikings beat the hapless Jacksonville Jaguars 25-16 on Sunday, winning for just the second time in nine...

Rob Gettemy Advances to 'On the Radar'
Iowa Candidate Takes Important First Step Toward 'Young Gun' Status
Washington- The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) has officially announced Rob Gettemy (IA-02) as an 'On the Radar' candidate, an important first step in its Young Guns program. Founded in the 2007-2008 election cycle by Reps. Eric Cantor (R-VA), Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), and Paul Ryan (R-WI), the Young Guns program is a member-driven organization dedicated to electing open-seat and challenger candidates nationwide. Gettemy is running in Iowa's Second Congressional District, a seat that is currently held by incumbent Dave Loebsack, an out-of-touch Democrat who is more concerned with toeing his party line than serving the constituents he was elected to represent.
The Young Guns program is designed to assist Republican candidates for the U.S. House of Representatives in accomplishing goals and benchmarks throughout the election cycle focused on the fundamentals of a winning campaign. By reaching 'On the Radar' status, Gettemy has proven his ability to build a successful campaign structure and achieve important fundraising goals.
"The NRCC is committed to working with Rob Gettemy as he continues to meet the rigorous goals of the Young Guns program," said NRCC Chairman Pete Sessions. "Rob is an accomplished, independent leader who will fight to create jobs and rein in government spending. I am confident that Republicans will wage a strong fight against Dave Loebsack, a loyal Democrat who has repeatedly put his partisan agenda before a healthy economy."
Raised in Central Iowa, Rob Gettemy has been a resident of Marion since 1991. Rob came to the Cedar Rapids area to work for Parsons Technology where he held several positions eventually leading to Vice President of Direct Sales and Service. Rob played a key role in the growth of Parsons, and was instrumental in managing through multiple mergers. Since leaving Parsons, Rob has become a successful small businessman, having started three businesses – two of which he has sold and the third which his family runs today.
Having achieved certain benchmarks to place him on the road to victory, Gettemy now faces a new set of rigorous goals that will help him advance to the next level of the Young Guns program and help him build a competitive, effective and winning campaign.

The 3rd book in the Harry Potter series follows the boy's 3rd consecutive year at the Hogwarts School that educates young wizards and witches to fight for the right cause. This time around, Harry and his two best friends - Ron and Hermione - have to learn everything they can about the Azkaban prisoner who recently broke from his prison. The wizards suspect that he might be Voldemort's biggest and oldest ally.
However, the boy doesn't know anything about this dangerous killer and only learns that he has escaped just a day before he has to get back to Hogwarts. When he arrives, Harry deals with all kinds of failures, but soon he overhears some wizards talking about Sirius Black, the escaped convict, mentioning that he used to be a close friend of Harry's mom and dad, but, one day, he betrayed them and led Voldemort, the most powerful dark wizard in the world, to their house.
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban hit the bookshelves in 1999 and, according to Joan Rowling, she had a wonderful time writing it and finished the book in one short year. In the UK alone, the third novel in the Potter series managed to sell ~70K copies, while today the cumulative sales in England have reached a staggering number of 3 million units!
Each new book in the Harry Potter series gets more positive reviews and happy comments from the fans, and that's why Joan Rowling remains one of the best (if not the best) writers of fantasy series for children. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban did not introduce anything new in terms of character development/twists of plot, but it was still quite an entertaining read that kept the young readers excited from page one to the very end.

Winter Bucket List Reassessment
It's officially SPRING! Though this literally freezing weather is still a bit too wintery to declare spring truly sprung in Windsor. It's been snowing for the last few days and the weather doesn't look like its getting warmer any time soon.
I don't mind too much though. I don't think I'm ready for warm weather just yet. I'm just happy that the days are so much longer.
And now it's time to take a look back at the Winter Bucket List I set out for myself way back in December.
Bake a Panettone (Check!)
My favourite Italian yeast cake!
I considered doing a fun variation but instead I stick with a traditional recipe filled with raisins and candied citrus peel that I soaked in lots and lots of coconut rum.
I made the panettone for Tina's birthday back in February.
Go Ice Skating (Not really)
Did I go skating? Well, not technically. The night we planned on going out it had snowed so much that the rink was full of snow and there was a cleaning crew clearing it so we went out drinking instead (makes total sense, eh?).
We headed out back to the ice much, much later but everyone was too cold to put their skates on, save for one brave soul.
Make a Soufflé (Check!)
Once I purchased a soufflé dish I was ready and willing to make a kick-ass soufflé. I went with a recipe for Herb and Goat Cheese Soufflé from the cookbook Keys to the Kitchen by Aida Mollenkamp which turned out SO delicious and fluffy and I couldn't wait to make another.
. . . but then I dropped my brand new soufflé dish and it shattered into a million pieces. So that was the end of soufflé making for Sam.
But, on the bright side, Aida Mollenkamp commented on my blog post so it was pretty much worth it. Wicked awesome.
Enjoy a Warm, Crackling Fire
Never happened. Wah wah waaaaaaah.
Build a Snowman (check!)
Totally did! And I did it in my front yard where the whole neighbourhood wondered what the fuck I was doing on my hands and knees, rolling balls of snow.
In the process I learned that making snowmen is a fun way to clear the driveway.
Watch The Muppet's Christmas Carol (check!)
Damn right I did! It's my favourite Christmas Movie.
Matt and I watched it for our December Date Night when our downloaded version of The Dark Knight Rises turned out to be a dud. Yes, we really did go from The Dark Knight to The Muppets.
So all in all I managed to get 4.5/5 bucket list wishes crossed off this winter. Next year I'm gonna cross them off all in one shot. I'll go skating then warm up by a crackling fire whilst watching Muppets Christmas Carol and eating souffle and panettone for dessert. Why didn't I think of that this year?

Anyone know of a cheap place to get these at on the net, size really doesn't matter too much as I won't be playing the GC games on the wii too much. Thanks!

This isn't one of my usual wiseguy yuckfests (at least I hope my posts are yuckfests). Still, I thought I'd pass along a holiday experience my family and I shared when were living in Iceland. Now that I'm retired and my son is in college and my daughter is a high school junior, I sometimes miss those days...
A few years ago, my family and I lived near the Arctic Circle at the U.S. Navy air station in Keflavik, Iceland.
The base, first opened during World War II to patrol Allied shipping lanes between America and Europe, has since shut down and reverted to the Icelandic government. A victim of fiscal cost-cutting in light of a changing world, it was felt that the money to keep it running could be better spent elsewhere. Especially since the threat of Viking raids in the North Atlantic has pretty much petered out.
During the short time we were there, though, we experienced a land rich in stark beauty and a culture awash with tradition. From ogling jaw-dropping New Year's fireworks displays which were truly "shock and awe" to lolling about geothermal spas in sub-freezing temperatures, we completely immersed ourselves in all that was Icelandic.
Except for the national delicacy of rotted shark heads. Those we gave a pass.
One of our favorite customs happened a couple weeks before Christmas. Readily acknowledging Santa Claus as the favorite of children worldwide and undeniable champion of early winter festivities, Icelanders inject their own unique way of celebrating the run-up to December 25th. For the thirteen nights prior to Christmas morning, the legend has it that their homes are visited by the impish gnomes known as the Yule Lads.
With names as diverse as Sheep Worrier, Pot Licker, and Candle Beggar, each of these bearded little creatures maintains his own specific identity. Never malicious or spiteful, they instead play mischievous tricks wherever they visit, whether by drinking all the milk or rearranging the furniture. Then, perhaps as a way of atoning for their pranks, they reveal their softer sides. Before slipping quietly on to the next house, they drop a treat into each sleeping child's shoe. Unless the youngster has been naughty. Then they get a potato.
Enchanted by this charming bit of folklore, my wife and I played up the fable of the Yule Lads to our two children. As December 12th approached, we told them that Stekkjarstaur, the Sheep Worrier, would surely be paying us a visit that night. To be ready, they needed to place one of their shoes on their windowsills before they went to sleep so that he could leave them a present.
Or a potato, I kidded my son.
Several hours after the sun went down at 3:30-Iceland is pretty much at the top of the world, after all-and the kids had gone to bed, we set the stage for the first of the Yule Lads' visits. Since Navy regulations forbade the housing of livestock in government quarters, we didn't have any sheep. So, we opted for the modern tradition of placing empty milk cartons in the fridge instead.
Certain the kids were asleep, we stole into their rooms to place a small goody in their shoes.
To be continued...When a Yule Lad Comes Callin'

Tony McDaniel signs with Seahawks
Though not a big-ticket item like receiver Percy Harvin or defensive end Cliff Avril, defensive lineman Tony McDaniel could turn out to be a significant addition for the Seahawks.
Seattle Times staff reporter
Turns out the Seahawks weren't quite done with their offseason shopping, as they reached an agreement to sign defensive lineman Tony McDaniel from the Miami Dolphins.
While McDaniel isn't exactly a big-ticket item like receiver Percy Harvin or defensive end Cliff Avril, he could turn out to be a significant addition. As a defensive tackle, McDaniel plays one of the few positions that doesn't have a starter already entrenched. Also, at 6 feet 7, he's got the kind of lanky build that's proven successful for the Seahawks along the defensive line.
Although the team won't announce the transaction until the contract is finalized, McDaniel reached an agreement with the Seahawks on a one-year deal.
Seattle appears to have solidified its defensive line for the upcoming season. McDaniel, 28, is the apparent replacement for Alan Branch, a starter for Seattle the past two years. McDaniel has played seven seasons in the NFL, the past four in Miami, and while he has started only five games in his career, look no further than Branch as proof that Seattle can find value in players who are overlooked elsewhere.
Branch is a month older than McDaniel, a former second-round pick out of Michigan who was considered an underachiever in his four seasons with Arizona. The Cardinals didn't so much as blink when he left for Seattle's two-year, $7 million offer in 2011.
Branch was more than serviceable in Seattle, a consistent starter, but the Seahawks' move to acquire McDaniel shows the team considers him a better value than Branch, who remains unsigned and is in the process of changing agents. In a free-agent market that has been much less lucrative than normal, McDaniel might rank as another bargain for Seattle.
Seattle has Brandon Mebane entrenched at nose guard with Clinton McDonald, a restricted free agent, as his backup. McDaniel projects as a consideration at the other defensive tackle spot along with two draft picks last year: Jaye Howard, a fourth-round pick who was inactive for most of his rookie season, and Greg Scruggs.
• Long snapper Clint Gresham, a restricted free agent, signed his one-year tender offer and is under contract with Seattle for $1.3 million in 2013. McDonald and safety Chris Maragos are Seattle's two restricted free agents who remain unsigned.

The Texas Model
October 25, 2010
More than half of the net new jobs in the United States during the past 12 months were created in Texas, says Rich Lowry, editor of National Review.
- According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 214,000 net new jobs were created in the United States from August 2009 to August 2010.
- Texas created 119,000 jobs during the same period.
- If every state in the country had performed as well, we'd have created about 1.5 million jobs nationally during the past year.
What does Austin know that Washington doesn't? At its simplest: Don't overtax and -spend, keep regulations to a minimum, avoid letting unions and trial lawyers run riot, and display an enormous neon sign saying, "Open for Business."
It's not as though Texas has been exempt from the Great Recession, says Lowry.
- Its unemployment rate is 8.3 percent -- high, though beneath the national rate of 9.6 percent.
- It faces a recession-driven shortfall of roughly $15 billion for its next two-year budget, a significant challenge to its low-tax ways.
But it has weathered the storm better than the nation, and better than its mammoth competitor on the West Coast.
- A new Texas Public Policy Foundation report notes that Texas experienced a decline of 2.3 percent from its peak employment, while the nation declined 5.7 percent and California 8.7 percent.
- During the past 12 months, California nearly canceled out Texas' job creation all by itself, losing 112,000 net jobs -- its unemployment rate is above 12 percent.
In Texas in recent decades, the watchwords have been prudence and stability in the course of nurturing a pro-business environment, while California has undergone a self-immolation that President Obama wants to replay nationally. For policymakers wanting to restart the American jobs machine, keep in mind the Texas model, says Lowry.

After Sandy, N.Y. recovering - but slowly
Updated 11:46 pm, Wednesday, October 31, 2012
New York --
Flights resumed, but slowly. The New York Stock Exchange got back to business, but on generator power. And with the subways still down, great numbers of people walked across the Brooklyn Bridge into Manhattan in a reverse of the exodus of 9/11.
Two days after superstorm Sandy rampaged across the Northeast, killing more than 70 people, New York struggled Wednesday to find its way. Swaths of the city were still without power, and all of it was torn from its daily rhythms.
At luxury hotels and drugstores and Starbucks shops that bubbled back to life, people clustered around outlets and electrical strips, desperate to recharge their phones. In the meatpacking district of Manhattan, a line of people filled pails with water from a fire hydrant. Two children used jack-o'-lantern trick-or-treat buckets.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo said that parts of the subway would begin running again Thursday, and that three of seven tunnels under the East River had been pumped free of water, removing a major obstacle to restoring full service.

"We are going to need some patience and some tolerance," he said.
On Wednesday, both were frayed. Bus service was free but delayed, and New Yorkers jammed on, crowding buses so heavily that they skipped stops and rolled past hordes of waiting passengers.
As far west as Wisconsin and south to the Carolinas, more than 6 million homes and businesses were still without power, about 4 million of them in New York and New Jersey.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg said 500 patients were being evacuated from Bellevue Hospital because of storm damage. The hospital has run on generators since the storm. About 300 patients were evacuated from another Manhattan hospital Monday after it lost generator power.
Still, there were signs that New York was flickering back to life and wasn't as isolated as it was a day earlier.
Flights resumed at Kennedy and Newark airports on what authorities described as a very limited schedule. Nothing was taking off or landing at LaGuardia, which suffered far worse damage.
The stock exchange, operating on backup generators, came back to life after its first two-day weather shutdown since the blizzard of 1888. Mayor Michael Bloomberg rang the opening bell to whoops from traders below.
"We jokingly said this morning we may be the only building south of midtown that has water, lights and food," said Duncan Niederauer, CEO of the company that runs the exchange, in hard-hit lower Manhattan.

We're coming close to the middle of Summer, but the festivities aren't slowing down anytime soon!
This week, we found two bloggers with creative and FUN craft ideas for your boys and girls. With the help of these two crafts, it'll be awhile until these activities "get old." Check them out below!
Ocean Swirl Glitter Slime – Twodaloo makes an awesome concoction to create a GORGEOUS slime (who knew those two words went together?!) It'll keep the kids entertained for hours (even days)! Her recipe is so versatile, her family has created reusable bubbles, galaxy slime, and more. We love it!
Frugal Fun for Boys created a nifty paper plate marble track! It's great because it's cheap, fun to make, more fun to use, and a mess-free activity! Boys and girls alike can be occupied with this building activity. If you have more than one little one, have them create their own tracks and race their marbles! Soon enough, you'll be raising little architects and engineers!
If you do try out these fun crafts, we'd love to see your creations: tag us on Facebook or Instagram!

Waiting for Blue LaserDRM technology and high cost may change things for everybody
Suddenly we can't wait for blue laser technology to arrive so we can get beyond the war of words to real products! Imagine this: 5x the storage capacity, sharp, brilliant movies and a real choice -- BD or HD DVD. Well, yes, the two standards are totally incompatible, but don't worry. They will eventually work out their differences. When they do, you'll get to buy new burners, new players and new media all over again.
Oh, we forgot to add that both sides have embraced some super digital rights management (DRM) technology that Hollywood would "like" included before they are going to knock out copies of their stellar masterpieces. The cool and super-advanced DRM technologies include digital watermarking, programmable cryptography and self-destruct codes. Don't try to decide which is best for everyone involved -- including the consumer -- throw them all into the mix!
Don't the three sound like something you just have to buy and put in your home?
Digital watermarking is something they call a ROM Mark. It really only applies to the pre-recorded media you buy -- movies, music and games. Don't worry about it because they say you'll never even know it is there. It was used in today's DVD technology but you could easily defeat it just by writing over it with a permanent marker.
Both sides like Advanced Access Control System (AACS) which requires your player to maintain connections to the content provider through the Internet. If your disc doesn't pass their security check it isn't a big thing. The provider will simply send your player a "self-destruct code" ROM update that will blow up your player. Okay, so it won't physically blow up. You simply won't be able to use it until a repair technician reprograms the player. And your entire library of discs that may have been encoded with the broken security may be unplayable also.
That is so cool !!!
Just in case you get past these two hurdles, they've added a third. This is a renewability method that lets content providers implement dynamic updates of compromised code. This is an advanced form of CSS (content scramble system that they used before which was defeated within hours after it was released) and is called SPDC. Simply stated, every time someone cracks the code the encryption algorithm will "learn from its mistakes" and improve the code. That's a challenge no hacker can refuse!
If these fail, say, when the 15-year-old kid cracks it all, Hollywood has a fallback plan: Their lobbyists will put the squeeze on Congress to "protect us from ourselves." Don't worry, their lawyers will continue to get their paychecks by suing every Tom, Ricardo and Harriet who might have an illegal copy.
Both sides (and they will continue down their separate revenue, oops, technology paths) are determined to win and have lined up an almost equal number of hardware and content providers. They are quite similar technically but dramatically different in the important areas of media structure and write/read techniques.
H.264 - "Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain." - Wizard of Oz
Our personal life has been so preoccupied with the here and now -- MPEG-2 (the dramatic increase of quality storage/viewing over MPEG-2 - VHS) -- that we missed the big picture. There is another standard out there and it isn't exactly "brand new!"
Contrary with what the blue technology folks would like you to believe, they didn't invent the superior storage capabilities of MPEG-4 or H.264. The technology, an open standard, has been around since 1998 and it's being widely used�except in storage.
It's big in broadcast and it's big in wireless content delivery. Truth is, H.264 delivers the best compression efficiency for a wide range of applications: Broadcast or satellite delivery, DVD, video conferencing, video-on-demand, streaming and multimedia messaging.
It is so good that Microsoft developed its own version, Windows Media Video 9 (previously called VC-9 and now VC-1/AVC). From the industry's perspective H.264 is a great codec because it scales beautifully from mobile content phones/devices up to high-definition broadcast. Since it makes efficient use of bandwidth and the distribution spectrum, H.264 broadcasters have already begun using the technology to send digital TV. It will be an efficient technology for them to use when they begin streaming video across the Internet to your home.
In its leading-edge fashion, Apple integrated H.264 into the Mac OS and QuickTime early this year, and frankly, we never even noticed the news. So this past weekend we visited an Apple store to see if it was as good as their web site PR said it was. It is darn good!
Even though you who are Mac diehards already know this, the "real world" doesn't. But the sales person also showed us how we didn't have to wait for blue ray technology to store and play back high definition DVDs. Mac users simply use Steve's DVD Studio Pro to write the high def content to a regular DVD+/-R disc. It was a COMPLETE high def movie and nothing was lost in the writing�everything was there!
It was almost enough to convert us from Windows to Macs�almost.
