Review: Nadia Ali's 'Embers' |
11-03-2010 09:14 | 0 comment(s) |
Nadia Ali is a Libyan-born, New York resident of Pakistani heritage. The ethnic influences are not so prominent on Embers. In fact, it is primarily a contemporary pop music project with little similarity to other musicians. However, Nadia's voice can only be described as a combination of Sarah McLachlan, Hilary Duff, Stevie Nicks, Shawn Colvin, and Kylie Minogue put together. Every song is sung in English.
The music is more mature and developed compared to any other popular artist today. There are basic electronic washes, drums, guitar, and a little Middle Eastern instrumentation and rhythms. Moreover, there is a bit of dance music in her repertoire. Overall, Nadia Ali's Embers is an introspective journey of love and life with pop and dance music as the medium. Embers will be burning up the charts. |

Congress has now passed the health reform bill. In the next few days, the President will sign the Senate bill into law.
So where do we go from here, from a legal perspective?
Once signed, the law will certainly be challenged on constitutional grounds, both by state attorneys general and by private citizens. The grounds for the challenge will involve an attack on the so-called "individual mandate" — the provision that will require every person to have some kind of health insurance. This argument could be based on two grounds: that Congress's power under the Commerce Clause to regulate economic activity does not authorize it to force people to engage in economic activity (i.e., to buy an insurance contract), and that the mandate violates the Tenth Amendment, which reserve rights to the people or the states unless they are specifically granted to Congress in the Constitution.
It's doubtful that this litigation will be successful, since no major piece of social legislation has been ruled unconstitutional based on the Commerce Clause since the 1930′s, and the Supreme Court has rarely invalidated statutes based on the Tenth Amendment.
The other major legal question is the significance of the last minute deal for an executive order from the President that claimed to apply the Hyde Amendment (the provision of law that restricts federal funding for abortion) to the health care bill.
Sadly, this executive order is a nullity, and will certainly be set aside by the courts, if the President even bothers to try to implement it.
The separation of powers doctrine, which is at the heart of our Constitution, dictates that Congress makes laws and disburses money, the President enforces these laws, and the courts interpret them. The courts have consistently ruled that the President cannot unilaterally amend or revoke laws that Congress has enacted, he cannot refuse to spend money that Congress has ordered to be spent, and he cannot interpret statutes in a way that is inconsistent with court rulings. The President is authorized to enact regulations to implement laws, but only if he is delegated that authority by Congress, and his regulations cannot be inconsistent with the original statute or with court rulings.
The executive order promised by the President purports to apply the Hyde Amendment to the health care bill. But the bill does not contain the Hyde Amendment, or any language like the Hyde Amendment. In fact, the Senate and the House both specifically rejected including such language in the bill. The President lacks the authority to include the Hyde Amendment on his own initiative — he cannot amend the plain meaning of a statute to make it mean something that Congress did not enact.
In addition, the executive order runs afoul of all the previous court rulings on federal health care statutes (e.g., Medicaid). In every case decided, the courts have ruled that these health care bills are required to cover and pay for elective abortions, unless Congress specifically forbids such funding. That is why it is necessary to have the Hyde Amendment added to spending bills every year, and that is why it was needed in this bill. The President lacks the authority to define a statute in a way that is inconsistent with these court rulings. Again, he cannot enact the Hyde Amendment on his own.
So, if neither the courts nor the executive order is the answer, where does that leave us, on the day after?
The only way to change the law is to do it through the legislative process. And that brings us back to elections and culture. As we saw on Sunday night, that means that we need more authentic pro-life legislators. And we can't do that until the conscience of our culture — of individuals, of voters — is awakened to the gross injustice of abortion. Every time abortion is discussed as a major political or social issue, hearts are changed and people become more pro-life in their sentiments. Our task is to energize people into a commitment for real social justice that is dedicated to fully protecting the unborn, and to electing representatives who will ensure that our civil laws reflect and embody the fundamental moral law. Nothing short of that will ever be acceptable.
And so, on the day after, we bind our wounds, recommit ourselves to the crusade, and move on to the next struggle.

Pipe & Punty Maintenance
Start by choosing the right pipe for you
Spiral Arts builds all stainless steel pipes and punties as well as carbon steel bodied pipes and punties and a few all carbon steel punties. Many glass blowers like the feeling of steel bodies, although there are pros and cons to both metals. If you have never blown with steel pipe beware - they will develop scale much more quickly than stainless pipes when the tip of your pipe is more than 3" inside the glory hole. They will also develop serious interior rust problems in pipe warmers where they are in direct contact with the flame. Pipes made of carbon steel may develop scale within weeks if the neck (the area between the head and the body of the pipe) is ever allowed to glow red. The larger the pipe the more likely you are to have serious scale problems.
What is scale and where does it come from?
When the iron in the body of a steel pipe exceeds 1,200°F it will begin
to oxidize - literally to burn - and the result is a thin layer of scale. This
scale is brittle and easily detached from the steel layer below. When the
scale gets loose, it will eventually find it's way down the head of the
pipe and into the glass. Scale tends to develop in 2 areas in the pipe, in
the neck near the weld and in the head about 1" from the tip of the pipe.
The scale in the neck can often be jarred loose and worked around. Scale
in the head of the pipe is extremely difficult to get rid of and usually is a
sign that the head needs to be replaced
How to avoid scale (also how scale can get out of a pipe you think is clean)
If you have a pipe that has been spitting scale there are a few things you can do to remedy the situation. First it is helpful to know how to avoid having a seemingly clean pipe spit scale see the section above, and then use the following techniques to loosen and flush loose scale from your pipes.
Guide for straightening your pipes and punties Bent Body Step 1. Put pipe on 2 supports preferably wood blocks or if your in a hurry, your bench rails. Ideal shape for wooden block
Step 2. Sight down end of pipe while turning, and position your pipe so the high side of the bend is up. Mark the high side with chalk or a sharpie marker. Note: you can also use a dial indicator to find the high side of the pipe. Step 3. Beginning with light pressure, push down with both hands and check for straightness to see how much the bend has changed. Step 4. Check head for straightness and repeat if necessary. Bent Head Step 1. Put pipe on 2 supports preferably wood blocks same as for straightening bodies. The block near the head should be located just behind the weld between the head and the body. Measure 7' back for all pipes up to PI-BBP. PI-BBP=8" Step 2. Rotate pipe and observe high spot on head. Locate high spot up and mark it with chalk or a "sharpie" marker. Step 3. Using a soft head hammer or mallet (we use a small dead blow hammer), hit the end of the head with a light blow. Rotate the pipe and again observe the position of the high side. If the head has not moved increase the power of your hammer blow. Hints: We use a dial indicator to show us how bent a head or body is. The dial indicator is accurate to within .001" although we straighten all our heads and bodies to within .003" off center. Beware of "S" bends where there is actually 2 bends in the pipe in different directions. If you have an "S" bend position your blocks closer together and focus on straightening only one bend at a time. Never use a hammer to straighten the pipe body and never slam the pipe on your bench rail to straighten a head. Stainless is much easier to bend than steel be careful of being too aggressive with stainless bodied pipes or puntys.

The graduate research program in Acoustics and Dynamics is devoted to an exploration of vibratory phenomena that are encountered in structural systems, in the air, and in the water. In fluid media, these vibrations are called sound, so the area is referred to as acoustics, but many of the questions and research tools are common to all areas. The basic objective shared by the projects is to understand the mechanisms by which the vibration or sound is initially generated, or modified as it propagates, or detected by the receiving transducer. In many cases, this information can be used to characterize the propagation medium. In some cases, this will lead to concepts for reducing the signal, but there are many situations where it is desirable to enhance it.
A recent project has explored the measurement of vibration using laser Doppler techniques. The concept is to make noncontact, high resolution measurements of surface motion by exploiting the Doppler shift that results when a laser beam reflects off a vibrating body. The technique is being used to characterize the rubber-like coatings used to quiet submarines. A very different line of research is devoted to using ultrasonic signals to detect defects in structures, for example, helicopter parts. A project that combines ultrasonics with laser techniques is material characterization by noncontact laser ultrasonics, that is, when ultrasound is generated and detected by laser beams. An interesting biological project is exploring the effects of loud signals in the water, with the objective of assisting navy divers. One of the uses of the anechoic testing facility is to improve analysis and measurement techniques for reducing noise in various systems; for example, interior cabin noise in aircraft or automobiles, or fan and pump noise. It is also being used to study and calibrate acoustic sources and receivers, and acoustic materials. A recent use of the facility included the assessment of the impact of protective clothing, such as an air-fed plastic suit, on the ability of a wearer to hear an alarm signal.
A novel project is exploring the use of wedges to produce shock absorbers that are effective for both vibration reduction and shock isolation, which present conflicting requirements for design. A recent project has begun to examine concepts for experimental modal analysis that would be suitable for heavily damped and rotating systems, as well as systems that have closely spaced natural frequencies. Each of these applications presents significant difficulties for current techniques.
Research funding is derived primarily from the Office of Naval Research, the National Science Foundation, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and industries such as Ford Motor Company, Cummins Engine Co., Lockheed-Martin Corporation, Newport News Shipbuilding, and Tenneco.

May 23, 2009 (WABC) -- It's that time of the year when students are gearing up to receive their diplomas, but we also can't forget about dear ole dad and Father's Day coming up. Dr. Cool Tech David King joined us with some gift ideas.
If your dad or grad happens to be into photography, take a look at Samsung's new 10.2 megapixel SL420. The new SL420 offers a range of advanced features, including a powerful 5x optical zoom, optical image stabilization, as well as a large 2.7 inch LCD screen for framing shots and reviewing images. The SL420 also incorporates Samsung's new Smart Auto mode. Smart Auto is a new automatic shooting mode that makes it easier than ever for anyone to take a great photo. When set to Smart Auto, the Samsung SL420 will automatically recognize what the user is shooting and select the appropriate scene mode for the best results possible. No interaction with the camera is required - all the user needs to do is point-and-shoot. The Samsung SL420 is available now for $179.99 For more information regarding the Samsung SL420, visit www.samsung.com.
You want to keep busy dads and grads going, without missing a beat, the newly redesigned Magellan Roadmate 1470 GPS device features a unique 4.7" color touch screen and ultra-thin design, offering powerful navigation in a compact unit. The GPS is easy to use and gives you the confidence and peace-of-mind while on the road. It has some great new features like AAA Tourbook, highway lane assistance, spoken street names, multi-destination routing and pre-loaded maps of North America. And it has OneTouch personalization, so that you can easily bookmark your favorite destinations and find them anywhere you go! It keeps all your favorites at your fingertips. For more, visit www.magellangps.com.
If dads and grads are still carrying around their same old cell phones, they've probably been coveting one of the newer devices. Well here's a great tip -- you don't have to pay hundreds of dollars to get the newest phones. For example, two of the newest phones from Blackberry -- if you go to the store, these will cost you up to $300-$400. BUT if you go online to wirefly.com, an authorized online wireless retailer, you can get these brand new models and many other amazing cell phones, for free - regardless of your service provider! Wirefly is the internet's #1 authorized retailer of cell phones and wireless plans. They handle everything online - including your application and activation with the carrier! And they provide fast, free FedEx shipping to all 50 states on ALL purchases. For more information, visit www.wirefly.com.
Dads and grads tend to get a lot of junk mail and here's a great way to help them safely dispose of it. The Fellowes' PS-79Ci paper shredder is a perfect way to make sure their sensitive paperwork is destroyed so that your dad or grad won't fall victim to identify theft. The shredder features 100% jam proof technology, which instantly calculates the amount of paper being fed into the machine to stop a paper jam before it occurs and it has the ability to power through tough jobs! A light bar lets you know when you're nearing sheet capacity. A green to yellow light means you're good to go and a red light means there's too much paper. It also features SafeSense Technology which automatically disables the shredder when sensing hands or large pets are too close to the paper opening. It even has cross-cut capabilities and can handle CDs/DVDs, credit cards, staples and paper clips. Available at Office Depot for $199. For more, visit www.fellowes.com.
CVS/pharmacy offers great personalized photo gifts both online and in-stores. The online photo gifts take about two weeks for delivery and include high quality photo books, personalized ties, desk ornaments, playing cards, travel mugs and more. If you need a personalized gift in a pinch, simply bring digital photos to your local CVS Pharmacy Photo Kiosk to create an in-store photo book in minutes and take home immediately. Available in three sizes, $5.99 - $14.99, shoppers can customize with various themes and text. For more information regarding online photo gifts visit www.cvsphoto.com.

Leicester have handed new deals to prop Logovi'i Mulipola and full-back Niall Morris.
Mulipola has made a big impression at Welford Road since initially arriving on a short-term deal in January.
The 25-year-old, who was part of the Samoa squad at the World Cup, has gone on to make 12 appearances for the Tigers and collect a LV= Cup winners' medal.
Director of rugby Richard Cockerill told the club's official site: "Logo came here as an international with Samoa but with no experience of European rugby or professional club rugby. He has settled into the Leicester Tigers set-up very well and he is working hard with us.
"He's already become a bit of a favourite with the supporters and we know there is even more to come from him as he continues to adapt to Premiership rugby with us."
Morris, 23, has also committed to the Tigers after scoring five tries in 14 appearances since joining from Leinster.
"Niall settled in well here in his first season and he's been a useful addition to the squad, playing full-back or wing," added Cockerill.

The final regulations apply for tax years beginning after December 31, 2013.
Read the final regulations [PDF 83 KB]
Separately, today, Treasury and the IRS released proposed regulations (REG-148500-12) concerning the requirement to maintain minimum essential health insurance coverage, and guidance on liability for a "shared responsibility" payment for failing to maintain minimum essential coverage.
Read the proposed regulations [PDF 196 KB]
Regulations proposed in August 2011 were finalized in May 2012, but reserved a rule for determining affordability of employer-sponsored coverage for related individuals.
The IRS and Treasury received written comments and held a public hearing concerning this issue, and today's final regulations adopt the proposed rule "without change."
Thus, for tax years beginning before January 1, 2015, an eligible employer-sponsored plan is affordable for related individuals if the portion of the annual premium the employee must pay for self-only coverage (the required contribution percentage) does not exceed 9.5% of the taxpayer's household income.
The affordability test for related individuals is based on the cost of self-only coverage. Section 5000A—which establishes the shared responsibility payment applicable to individuals for failure to maintain minimum essential coverage—addresses affordability for employees in section 5000A(e)(1)(B) and, separately, for related individuals in section 5000A(e)(1)(C).
Today's proposed regulations under section 5000A provide that for purposes of applying the affordability exemption from the shared responsibility payment in the case of related individuals, the required contribution is based on the premium the employee would pay for employer-sponsored family coverage.
The final and proposed regulations will be published in the Federal Register on Friday, February 1, 2013. Comments concerning the proposed regulations are due 90 days after their publication in the Federal Register. Outlines of topics to be discussed at the public hearing (scheduled for May 29, 2013) are due by May 3, 2013.

What "lesson" do Wall $treet banks learn? They learn they can "financial sector" gamble-profiteer, and taxpayers will bail them out-pick up their losses, AND will not be regulated in their greed-profiteering..
There are also economists who are stating Wall $treet banks are threatening government to allow U.S. economy to fail...and truth also is, they now generate (paper debt-Michael Hudson) 41% of U.S. economy, up from 19%, 2000.
I do trust William K Black, who both investigated and set up prosecution of S & L's, sending over 1000 fraudsters to jail, to tell us the truth-here he is:

Hi John.
You can always post thumbnail attachments by clicking "go advanced" and uploading them through "manage attachments."
I can post threads and responses with no problem and I paid a fee to be able to post pictures. It refuses to upload the pics and gives a security certificate error? What is up? I have tried multiple times with no luck regardless if I try to upload 1 or 20 pics? My Paypal's email address is different than the email I use with this account but that shouldnt make any difference should it? Hard to start a machine build thread when I cant post pictures.
Hi John.
You can always post thumbnail attachments by clicking "go advanced" and uploading them through "manage attachments."
Too many PMs. Email me to my name plus At A O L dot com.
That is what it is not letting me do. It fails each and every time. My intent was to do an update on any advancement of my retrofit by posting pictures alongside any learned lessons. But I cant get any to post. I dont want to list in galleries or not only.
Possibly a problem with your browser.

Security token missing is somehow related with vbulletin. I am not sure where that problem lies just yet but anything to get me away from my cnc project. LOL
You are the only one who is having this problem, can you provide a screen shot?
I just posted this pic ZERO problem.
Thank You,

I had the problem last night, then today it allowed me to post 2 pictures. Immediately following that it stopped me again. 1 screen actually has an error message window that says "upload failed security token missing", it does it on all 3 of my computers too. If I do a google search it explains (or so I understand) this is a vbulletin? error and needs updating. The error with the dialog box comes up every other time or so. I am going to attempt a pic here. It failed and my Screen hunter is expired so I will have to figure another way or purchase later tonight. It is odd that I only have that problem here on cnc zone and the registration issue has never made sense. I am not sure if you guys can email me when I ask you to. I even placed you on my approved senders list. John
What browser are you using, and can you try a different one?
Mach3 2010 Screenset
(Note: The opinions expressed in this post are my own and are not necessarily those of CNCzone and its management)
IE but I could try firefox if you think that might help
I am on Mozilla now. Going to see if that is the issue. Upload still failed!
BTW I am running W7 still no go. 1 Machine runs vista, 1 xp and 1 w7 and they all do it. All searches regarding this problem seem to be non end user issues. I have tried to write this website thru every contact dialog box on any of your pages, I have yet to ever get a response from Cnc zone. I see people trying to help on posts or threads but never a response by email. Somehow you are being blocked or I am and it only happens here. In fact Ger21 was the 1 who had to activate me manually because your confirmation would never get thru. It is frustrating to say the least and not being a computer expert (nor wanting to be) I dont know where to go next. All info to repair is related with mysql (what ever that is) settings.
All the issues you are having are on your end unfortunately. What anti-virus software are you using? Whatever you are using is blocking ajax from working.

TEAMS: Cleveland Cavaliers, Miami Heat, New York Knicks, Dallas Mavericks, Los Angeles Lakers
If all goes well with Andrew Bynum, the Cleveland Cavaliers wont need to worry about LeBron James.
Not that the Cavs would ignore James should he opt out of his contract and become a free agent next summer. No team would.
Its just that if Bynum can stay healthy, and All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving continues his rise, the Cavs will be desperate for no one.
Bynum met with reporters at the Cavs practice facility Friday and said all the right things.
I feel a lot better than I did last year. I'm ready to work, he said. I'm going to stay in the gym as much as possible to get my game back.
Theres more.
I want to get back to All-Star level, he said. We want to work extremely hard, get this team back in the playoffs and really make some noise. The Cleveland fans deserve that.
Hes right about that last part.
Hes right about the first, too. If Bynum is healthy and willing, the Cavs can really go places.
As for James, and the endless speculation about a possible return to Cleveland well, those wont be going away anytime soon.
But if Bynum, Irving and the others do their part, people around the world might be able to focus on something else for a short while.
And the Cavs and their fans might be able to get excited about whats taking place on the floor, as is, right away.
Thats because Bynum is a 7-footer with a wide array of skills. He mostly put them on display two seasons ago, when he averaged 18.7 points and 11.8 rebounds with the Los Angeles Lakers. It was a career season that came under Mike Brown.
Brown is now the head coach of the Cavs, and a man whose primary focus is defense. After that, Brown preaches defense and more defense.
Bynum knows Browns voice well and said he respects it. Thats good news, particularly after the nightmare that was Bynums year in Philadelphia this past season.
He played zero minutes in zero games, with the only notable numbers being his two knee surgeries (one on each).
On the down side, those knee issues werent his first (he also missed the entire Lakers playoff run to the 2008 Finals) and history tells us theyre not likely to be his last.
On the bright side, hes been checked out thoroughly and is expected to be ready for training camp in the fall.
With Bynum, Anderson Varejao, Tristan Thompson, Tyler Zeller, free-agent signee Earl Clark and No. 1 overall draft pick Anthony Bennett, the Cavs frontcourt is deep, big and versatile. With the likes of Irving, Dion Waiters, Jarrett Jack and C.J. Miles, the backcourt aint too shabby, either.
But again, so much of this depends on everyone staying healthy, and of the above list, only about half has a recent history of doing so.
King of free agency?
As for James, sources close to him told FOX Sports Ohio he is likely to test the waters next season by opting out of his current contract. He enjoys the recruiting process too much not to, sources said, and mostly, its just a smart business decision. Not just for James, but for anyone anywhere.
Other big names either can or will be free agents as well. That includes New York Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony, Dallas Mavericks forward Dirk Nowitzki, Lakers guard Kobe Bryant and forward Pau Gasol, and Heat guard Dwyane Wade and big man Chris Bosh.
But so much of the focus in Cleveland is James -- the local guy who departed the franchise via free agency in 2010.
Obviously, a number of different scenarios involving James, the Heat and the Cavs could play out.
First, the Heats Big Three of James, Wade and Bosh may have run its course by next summer. Thats especially the case with Wade showing occasional signs of breaking down. If so, James could look for a livelier and younger team with available cap space to help prolong his career.
Second, the Cavs could be such a team -- again, with Bynum and Irving in the starring roles of center and point guard, respectively.
If that happens, a fantastic swingman-type may be all thats missing. That, of course, only leads to more speculation about James.
But the bottom line is the Cavs cant and wont worry about any of that until the time arrives. The same is said of James. He is said to be concentrating on nothing beyond the task ahead of him after winning two straight titles in Miami.
If James does opt out after the season, sources said his decision will come down to two places: Miami, or Cleveland.
The only way the Cavs can make their case is by doing well on the court, staying healthy, and being the exciting young team they have the potential to be.
So there are a lot of unknowns heading into the season, but they are unknowns that cant be disregarded as everyday ridiculousness.
But if Bynum, Irving and the rest of the Cavs do their part, again, it wont matter. Theyll become a tempting destination for free agents of all shapes, sizes and names.
That includes LeBron James and whoever else you might want to throw in there.

ESPN returns to Rocky Top: Vol-Gator clash returns to national spotlight
By Grant Ramey | (firstname.lastname@example.com)
It's back.
A Tennessee-Florida game with meaning. A Tennessee-Florida game that should go a long way in helping determine the Southeastern Conference's East division champion. A Tennessee-Florida game in the national spotlight.
For the first time since 2007, both teams will be ranked when they meet at 6 p.m. today inside Neyland Stadium. And for the first time since 2004, ESPN's College GameDay show will be on campus, bringing the attention of a national audience to Tennessee's campus this morning when it broadcasts live from UT's Circle Park.
"We were talking about it driving in. It's been a few years since we've been here," GameDay co-host Kirk Herbstreit said Friday in a sit-down with local news media. "And it's been a long time since we had Florida and Tennessee."
The last time the GameDay trio of host Chris Folwer and co-hosts Lee Corso and Herbstreit were in Knoxville was 2004 — the same year Tennessee last beat Florida. That visit ended with No. 8 Auburn beating No. 10 Tennessee, 34-10.
"When I first started on GameDay in '96 it was a staple every year," Herbstreit said. "The third week we would do the game with Spurrier and Philip Fulmer.
"We're excited. This is a great rivalry, it's fun to watch. We find out early a little more about these two teams, and find out who's ready to take that next step and compete in the SEC East."
It's a far cry from the rivalry that was between Tennessee-Florida, Spurrier-Fulmer in the mid-to-late '90s.
The next step
Now, both teams desperately need to take that next step.
For Florida, it's second-year head coach Will Muschamp who needs to take that step after a disappointing 7-6 season in his debut in Gainesville.
For Tennessee, it's Derek Dooley, trying to find that signature win showing he's righted a program that was in turmoil when he was hired.
Herbstreit said Friday that the Vols had the tools to start that step in the right direction against Florida.
"Obviously you have to look at the way Tyler Bray is performing," Herbstreit said, "when he's been healthy and when he's had receivers that are healthy.
"I think their big play ability against a Florida defense that's coming off an impressive second half against (Texas) A&M, and how they match up against an explosive offense from Tennessee is a huge storyline."
Downward spiral
Another storyline for Herbstreit and the GameDay crew? The factors that sent Tennessee's program into its downward spiral over the last half-decade.
"To me one of the things I'm going to bring up is, in my opinion, everything that's happened to this athletic department in the last five or six years," Herbrstreit said. "From the basketball program to Pat Summitt and her health; Mike Hamilton being removed as athletic director; Lane Kiffin coming and going; and now of course there's a new coach and things haven't gone well the last few years."
At least through two years and two weeks of a new season, Dooley seems to have Tennessee back on track.
The Vols re-entered the Associated Press Top 25 this week for the first time since the beginning of the 2008 season — debuting at No. 23 — after a 51-13 win over Georgia State. Tennessee won in impressive fashion in a much-anticipated season-opener two weeks ago against North Carolina State.
"This fan base is starving to getting Tennessee back to being relevant in the SEC East," Herbstreit said. "I think because of that, it's kind of adding to the excitement and the buildup of the game."
Herbstreit said all the pieces are in place for Dooley, with the national spotlight on Knoxville, to make a statement about a Tennessee program on the way back to where it used to be.
"I just feel like the table is set, and now we're going to find out if Coach Dooley and this Tennessee program are able to capitalize.
"It's right there. We'll see if they're able to take advantage of it."

Positive Atheism? Why Christians Should Believe in Less
Seeing is believing. That's what they say anyway.
But the Bible says hearing is believing (Romans 10:17).
Our culture is inundated with images, and we simply listen too much to what those images say. The problem is, all of these messages preoccupy us with things that don't matter.
On the other hand, God's word wakes us up to reality that we have bigger problems. All of us are under judgment for falling short of the glory of God. It's time we stopped believing all the wrong things and believe just one thing: the gospel.
First-Century Christian "Atheists"
First century Christians in Rome were considered atheists. How so? Rome was a culture with gods literally on every street corner. The pantheon of gods was encouraged because idolatry sells. False religion taps into people's fears and insecurities; emotions that offer great business opportunities. Savvy opportunists have a way of harnessing people's latent idolatry and answering it with goods and services guaranteeing safety, comfort, and control to anxious consumers. Hmmm... sounds familiar.
When we walk by sight instead of faith, we take matters into our own hands and fashion idols that promise safety and control.
Once Christianity gained traction in the Roman empire, more people began refusing to believe that all the deaf, mute, and blind idols of their culture could deliver what they really needed. Instead, they worshipped Jesus alone.
Believing in Seeing Breeds Idolatry
First-century Christians saw a very different set of problems than the current Western world. They faced threat of famine, no medical technology, and political enemies, just to name a few. Sometimes our biggest concerns are soaring gas prices and an expanding waistline. Whatever the problem, context, or time, the human heart will always respond. Instead of believing that God is ultimately good and in control, we often get things exactly opposite. Instead of walking by faith that God works out all things for good, we walk by sight instead of faith. By doing this, we take matters into our own hands and fashion idols that promise safety and control.
Seeing Is Not Always Believing
All of our sight-driven fear has obscured what God has said. Our spectacle-oriented culture traps us into running the hamster wheel of unattainable success, health, and popularity. Very few of us become movie stars, astronauts, heads of state, or pro athletes. If we're honest, in the end, we all are subject to entropy. Wrinkles and love-handles happen. We get sick and ultimately die.
It's time we stopped believing all the wrong things and believe just one thing: the gospel.
But, the spectacle of "Entertainment Tonight," what you see in the mirror, or what's written in your medical chart is not the last word. Jesus resurrected. Death is not the last word. Not only that, God is reconciling all things (Colossians 1:20). There will come a day when there is no crime, poverty, natural disaster, sickness, broken relationships, or disease.
Whatever hardship you are facing, if you are in Christ, it's not the last word! While there is no guarantee of the good life now, it's time we believed less of what we see (and the superstitious baggage that comes with that believing) and more of what we have heard proclaimed: God saves sinners and he is reconciling the world to himself!

NP Rank:
Will the German government become defacto shareholder in BC P3s?
The German bank that's involved in the financing of three high profile public-private partnership (P3) projects in British Columbia may be partially nationalized by the German government.
Hypo Real Estate (HRE) through its subsidiary Depfa Bank PLC is providing capital for P3 schemes for the construction of the Royal Jubilee Hospital expansion in Victoria, the Surrey Outpatient Hospital and the Golden Ears Bridge.
Depfa's credit woes late last year forced its parent HRE to seek a massive bailout package from the German government and other banks. HRE is also under investigation by German prosecutors for suspicion of insider trading and is being sued by investors for alleged lack of disclosure of their financial situation.
Depfa is also embroiled in a major scandal in Italy over the financing of municipal bonds.
The German government is considering partially nationalising distressed mortgage lender Hypo Real Estate (HRE), a spokesman for Chancellor Angela Merkel's CDU party told AFP on Wednesday.
"I can confirm there is some thought in this direction," Otto Berhnardt, CDU (Christian Democratic Union) spokesman for financial affairs, said, adding that a decision could be make quickly.
A total of 50 billion euros (66 billion dollars) in cash and another 30 billion euros in loan guarantees provided to the bank so far appears not to have been enough to get its back on its feet.

After being part of the Leeds Carnegie Academy system from the age of 14, Calum Clark was clearly destined for international honours. Five years later, he duly became the youngest forward to appear in the Premiership when playing through the full 80 minutes against Saracens on September 30, 2007.
He made 23 appearances in his Carnegie debut season and by the end of the campaign won a call for England U20 and helped the side to reach the IRB Junior World Championship final against New Zealand after his team had beaten South Africa in the semi final. Calum was also the Carnegie's young player of the year in two successive seasons with his physical potential and mental toughness to the fore.
His progressive series of honours that already included England U16 and U18 gathered momentum when he captained England U20 in the 2009 IRB Junior World Championship final in Japan. After signing for Northampton in the summer of 2010, he led the Saints, at the age of 21, in an LV=Cup match against Saracens.
Calum became the Northampton Young Player of the Season for 2010-11, having started both the Heineken Cup final that the Saints lost 33-22 to Leinster, and the Premiership semi final. That season he made 35 appearances – more than any other Saints player – and was rewarded with a new contract.
Backtracking, he had attended Richmond School before moving to Barnard Castle Sixth Form to take A levels and appeared in the 2007 Daily Mail Schools Cup final at Twickenham. His presence in the 2012 England Elite squad and that of Lee Dickson added more distinction to Barnard Castle, whose previous products include Rob Andrew, the Underwood brothers, Rory and Tony and Mathew Tait.
Calum, born in Stockton-on-Tees, played for Darlington RFC in his formative days, trained under the influence of Brian Ashton as a member of the National Junior Academy in 2005-06 and by the end of the 2012-13 season, his burgeoning total of Premiership appearances had reached 78, comprising 44 for Northampton and 34 for Leeds. An ankle injury forced him to miss this summer's England tour of South America.

So something new.
After playing a game on Armor games called "Take over" I realized that our army is missing something CRUCIAL and familiar to the Age of swords…
CALVARY!!!! or is it Calvery? Whatever…
Anywho… I believe calvary could be a fast armored unit that could be better than the voguls or rivets. How they work is they Attack Defensive structures in their Range FIRST and THEN begin destroying Resource structures. But to be a better unit then the voguls in terms of Damage and speed…
The Armored Calvery Are just 3 more in terms of speed and 2 more in armor AND they have a special skill. PUNCTURE. Alric is the only one to deal the Skill Puncture that both Damages, and Enhances damage given for 5 seconds depending on its level. But in order to NOT be overpowered and be a "Temporary Hero" The Puncture given off by Calvery only ENHANCE damage and NOT give off damage of 100 or so. And they do puncture in intervals of 5 or 10 seconds at a time. While giving off a base damage of 100.
So I decided on 2 types of "Calvery" This one is the Standard one.(If Synapse can draw horses.) Size:5 Health:1500 Armor:6 Speed:65 Damage:200 (Skill: Puncture, Damage:none Enhances damage for 10 secs, at 10 sec intervals)
Looks like: http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=&section=&global=1&q=Armored+horses#/d33pwir (If Synapse and his team can Draw and Animate this, Ill be surprised.)
And then The OTHER appearance is…well I couldn't find a Image close to one… But the idea is for a Rivet to ride a Steam Chariot Similar to monolith's "Legs/Gear wheels" And The Rivet to be Armed with a Huge 6 foot Lance.
(Probably Easier to animate seeing as how the Data is already in your banks.)
Also synapse, would it Hurt to Turn or Make a New swordsmen Looking like THIS?
I found it Sifting through some random images. http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=&section=&q=Skyshard+heroes#/d5ai5cf
Its been a while since i posted here.
So i guess ill suggest something that other people have came close to doing… -- So people want a AI army helping them in their defense of territories and Their home base, Im not surprised, I kinda want one too. So I was wondering if it was possible to train another tier of 5 units in the barracks AFTER level 25 or 50… Because currently, the level system is Crap and does nothing but brag to our friends and enemies… Besides filling our base with res of course.
There are two types of Armies that a person can have, A Offensive army… and a Defensive army. The offensive army is the one we are currently using. The defensive army is something new that I came up with.
These units in the defensive army have a much Higher health and Armor compared to their offensive bretheren But they Lack damage, Speed, and numbers to the offensive army.
(These are SOME of the "New units" from Earlier but ill post them here anyway.)
1. Spearguard: The swordmen's Long tipped brother. They are cheap to recruit. Heavily armored and health compared to a level 5 rivet. but can do only 15 damage.
2. Cannoneer: The ranger's Dream. These guys have Significantly MORE damage than a ranger, But have even LESS health than the ranger, even with armor. Should be backed up with someone else.
3. Quad bolt: The Rivets Big bro. These Bolts have 4 legs attached to their lower parts as well as have 10 times more skystone armor and health than a rivet. that being said, It barely goes 5 speed.(About the size of a regular hero)
4. Arcana voltdriver: The Mage's Insane brother. These guys walkaround carrying a Lightning Cannon instead of using skystone focuses. because of this, They have a chain damage attack and can hit targets in a group or by themselves. But because they wear metal, They hurt themselves.
5. Mongrel: A vogul with a mental condition. While "Slightly" Slower than a vogul, They have more health and armor than one, and carrying 2 fists, they deal twice as much damage than one as well. sadly they are Very expensive and their size is 10.
