The last Georgia quarterback to win three in a row against Florida was Buck Beule.
That stretch was from 1979 to 1981.
Quarterback Aaron Murray, who is 2-1 against the Gators, has a chance to pull off that feat starting today at 3:30 p.m. in Jacksonville, Fla.
But he said he's not really thinking about another spot in Georgia football history that he could claim.
"I guess when I'm old and want to brag, I can, but right now it's all about the team," Murray said. "It's all about getting this win and I guess I can talk about this later in life when I'm done playing and all and I look back."
The Tampa, Fla., native hasn't had the best outings against the flagship program of his home state despite his two wins. Murray has broken the 200-yard passing mark just once in three tries against the Gators when he threw for 313 yards in Georgia's 34-31 overtime loss in 2010. The four-year starter has thrown more interceptions (seven) than touchdowns (six) against the Gators while completing 60 percent of his passes for 632 total yards.
Murray said he doesn't get any more hyped up to face Florida than he does any other team, though his stat lines may tell a different story.
"If I do, it's very minimal," Murray said. "Just got to treat it like any other game and go out there, have fun, execute, prepare like I always prepare during the week to make sure I know what I'm doing."
Not only does today mark Murray's last dance with Florida, it is also the second time since 1979 that the teams have both been unranked for their bout on the bank of the St. Johns River. The last time was 2010 — Murray's first year as a starter.
"If you can't get excited about playing Florida in that venue, you shouldn't be a Bulldog. Period," said Georgia coach Mark Richt, whose team enters today's game at 4-3 overall and 3-2 in Southeastern Conference play. "I think we all understand that."
Will Muschamp's Gators come into Jacksonville with the same record and though it's not the No. 3 vs. No. 12 matchup it was last year, both teams are playing to keep alive fading hope of making it to the SEC championship game.
'ÄúI think for us, it'Äôs just the fact that … there is a little bit of hope in the grand scheme of things,'Äù tight end Arthur Lynch said. 'ÄúObviously, there is a lot that needs to happen for us to be where we want to be at the end of the year…. In the SEC east, these past couple of years especially, you never know what'Äôs going to happen.'Äù
Both teams have been ravaged by injuries — Florida has lost eight starters to season-ending injuries and Georgia lost wide receivers – Malcolm Mitchell and Justin Scott-Wesley – and tailback Keith Marshall to ACL injuries. But Georgia's star tailback, Todd Gurley, who, despite missing the last three games, still leads the Bulldogs in rushing yards with 450. Receiver Michael Bennett is back in the lineup after missing a couple games with a knee injury, though receiver Chris Conley will be sidelined with an ankle sprain.
Georgia will be tasked with moving the ball against a Florida defense that's been allowing just 100 yards rushing per game.
"They got a lot of experience in their secondary, a lot of familiar faces for us," receiver Rhett McGowan said. "We know what they're capable of  and they're very good. They're talented. They play with a lot of confidence as all Florida teams do."
Richt said his Bulldogs and Muschamp's Gators are in the same boat, despite being unranked, for the rest of the season.
"I think we still have three or four more SEC games, and anything can happen," Richt said. "Obviously we have to do our part, and I know Florida's thinking the very same thing. I think both of us, like I said early on, are just fighting like mad to stay in the race. With another loss, I don't know if mathematically or not it knocks us out, but it'd be pretty tough."

How can I soften the ride of 18" run flats?

iTrader: (
I think pretty much everything has been covered. Move to a smaller diameter wheel or swap out the tires. I wouldn't recommend deflating your tires, though. Aside from wear and lower mpg, you may be putting your wheels at risk by doing that if you do not have the smoothest of roads around you.
The few RFT sets I've experienced were not bad for 'normal' commuting and milling about but a lot of others have claimed the same tire was too harsh. Harshness is a common complaint with RFTs, in part due to the metal reinforcement in the sidewalls (amongst other things). I do not mind a harsh ride, though.
Moving away from RFTs altogether is not so bad an option. You would be surprised at how much a difference a different tire can make for not just 'performance' but also ride quality and noise. I tend to swap out RFTs for personal preference of tires. I always keep a bottle of slime and a plug/patch kit in my cars to mitigate being stuck somewhere with a flat/puncture.Aside from getting a tire I like/want, non-RFTs are usually cheaper to replace, too. The Pirelli Cinturato RFT actually costs a fair deal more than Pilot Super Sports (if you can believe it). Some places will plug/patch a RFT depending on if the tire deflated from a puncture, location of punction, distance driven after noticing said puncture, etc... even though they are technically not suppose to. If your tires hare fairly worn and you get a flat/puncture, you really should replace both tires on on that axle (a lot of people don't) so the cost goes up even further.

Wolf kills on the rise as livestock deaths continue
BILLINGS, Mont. (AP)--Wolves are being killed at an increased rate across the Northern Rockies this year as their population expands and wildlife officials seek to curb their appetite for livestock, state and federal officials said Sept. 10.
In Wyoming and Idaho, 90 wolves have been killed to date because of livestock run-ins. That matches the states' figures for all of 2006 even as livestock conflicts were expected to continue through the fall.
In Montana, 32 wolves have been killed this year by federal agents--11 more than at this point last year, said John Steuber, state director for federal Wildlife Services. The Montana figure does not include an unknown number of wolves killed by ranchers defending their livestock.
The rising death toll, coming off a record 142 killed in the three states last year, was attributed to the wolves' surging population.
Much of the best wolf habitat--where elk, deer and other wildlife are present in numbers dense enough to satisfy the carnivores' hunger--already is occupied, state and federal officials said. That leaves younger wolves to push into areas close to ranches, where sheep and cattle offer a tempting target.
As a result, officials have stepped up the removal of wolves.
"In areas we've had existing problems (with livestock kills), we've really hammered those wolves," said Ed Bangs, wolf recovery coordinator for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
Federal officials plan to remove gray wolves in the Northern Rockies from the endangered species list in February, although court challenges are considered inevitable and could delay a final delisting.
Wolves in the Great Lakes region were taken off the endangered list earlier this year.
In the Rockies, non-lethal responses to livestock kills, such as hazing wolves away from a ranch, are used when they can be pushed into an area without livestock, said Steve Nadeau, large carnivore program coordinator with the Idaho Department of Fish and Game. The technique does not work when ranches lie in every direction.
"We have fewer options available to us in some of the areas where wolves are getting into trouble," Nadeau said. "We'll probably end up killing more than last year--somewhere around 20 percent over last year."
Wolves were driven to near-extinction across the American West last century.
In the mid 1990s Canadian-born wolves were reintroduced by federal wildlife officials in central Idaho and Yellowstone National Park. More wolves entered northwest Montana from Canada, and the wolf population in the Northern Rockies has since grown to an estimated 1,300 animals.
"Wolves are very prolific," said Mike Jimenez, Wyoming leader of the Fish and Wildlife Service wolf project. "As they get more into areas with livestock and farther away from areas without livestock, we get more aggressive."

When it comes to creative film tie-ins, this week saw the release of a fictional future TED Talk set in the year 2023 and starring one of the characters from the upcoming sci-fi epic, Prometheus. It's quite an involved, bold bit of marketing, especially as TED 2012 is wrapping up today in Long Beach, CA.
But it's not the only film tie-in going this week, even if some of the rest is a little less creative and a little more… wolfish.Continue reading...

Headaches are the second most common complaint following motor vehicle accidents (MVA's). Similar to the many other MVA symptoms, headache may not be present themselves immediately following the accident, and they may take several weeks and often months to eventually surface.
Most post-traumatic headaches are thought to originate from the soft tissues and facet joints of the neck as well as injury or irritation to the nerves of the upper cervical spine.
Research has shown there to be multiple types of headaches which can be experienced following a MVA. These include the following:
- Cervicogenic Headaches
- Muscle Tension Headaches
- Migraine Headaches
- Myofascial Trigger Point Headaches
- Site-Of-Impact Headaches
- Drug-Induced Headaches (following excessive or prolonged analgesic use)

Volume 1, Number 1
January - March 2002
Dedicated to the recognition of the contribution made to baseball by Hispanic American players
Legends of Baseball"
The Oakland Athletics who lost their lead off hitter Johnny Damon and their cleanup hitter and MVP Jason Giambi are in good shape with lots of rookies in their files. Carlos Peña could be the new superstar at first base, while Dominican shortstop Miguel Tejada could be hitting higher in the lineup and Venezuelan catcher Ramon Hernandez is poised to have a great season. The reigning champions of the American League West, should repeat again with that great young pitching staff: Hudson-Mulder-Zito-Liddle and their acquisition as closer, Billy Koch, coming out of the bullpen throwing 100 mph fastballs.
OVERALL: 2002 Major League season should be an exciting one with Sammy Sosa going for 60 or more home runs again, the Yankees trying to make it back to the Fall Classic and Barry Bonds of the Giants trying to get "close" to his 73 home run season of 2001. Enjoy the season and the 30% of Latino players showing their great skills among all 30 teams.

Opening of Evans House by Lieutenant-Governor provides additional option for homeless
The property has been substantially refurbished at a cost of £250,000 and opened its doors just before Christmas 2013. It has been renamed Evans House as a tribute to the late Winifred Evans, whose generous bequest provided a significant proportion of the funding for the project.
The new facility was opened by General Sir John McColl, the Lieutenant-Governor, who is a patron of the Shelter Trust and has taken a close interest in the challenges faced by homeless people since his arrival in Jersey.
"We are indebted to all those who have supported the project, particularly Winifred Evans and the Jersey Homeless Outreach Group, who provided much of the resource to furnish the sleeping rooms."
The addition of Evans House completes the reconfiguration of homelessness services provided by the Shelter Trust. There is now a range of accommodation for homeless people and socially excluded adults, accessible at any point depending on individual needs. This comprises:

Has the surge already failed? That's the impression you get from the MSM. The reality on the ground is a little different. Although the last surge troops only arrived in June, they have already had a significant impact. How significant? In preparing to testify before a congressional committee tomorrow, I put that question to a friend of mine, an American officer serving in Baghdad. Here is his response, which he agreed to let me share with contentions, provided that I did not use his name (I've added explanations of a few acronyms):
Here are some positive results of the surge strategy to date—I'm sure you've got the negatives down pat from all the media reports.
- Deaths caused by sectarian violence in Iraq are down 75 percent from January to June
- VBIED's [vehicle-borne improvised explosive devices]/Suicide attacks cut in half from March to June; VBIED's at lowest level since August 2006
- Casualties from VBIED's cut in half from February to June
- Attacks in Al Anbar cut by 80 percent since February
- ISF KIA [Iraqi Security Forces killed-in-action] at 2-3 times the level of Coalition KIA—Iraqis are fighting and dying for their country
- Tribes are rejecting Al Qaeda in Al Anbar, Salah Ad Din, Ninewa, Diyala
- AQI [Al Qaeda in Iraq] is on the defensive and slowly dying—BUT WE NEED TIME TO FINISH THE JOB or they will recover
- Government of Iraq is rejecting militias and authorizing strikes anywhere in Iraq
- Government of Iraq responded well to second Samarra Mosque bombing
- Government of Iraq has formed a Reconciliation Committee to engage local groups and bring them into the process against Al Qaeda and in support of the GoI
- Government of Iraq improving budget execution
The big negative, of course, is lack of political reconciliation at the national level, but this is a lagging indicator. Progress is being made at the local level, and I believe the national leaders will follow in due course once the trend is clear.
Best from Baghdad,

Sorry it's been so long since I've uploaded. This chapter will have a some racy parts. I hope you like it, though. ENJOY!
" Bella? Could I come in?" I heard the most beautiful voice in the world say. Edward was behind the door. What the hell could he want now?
I quickly sat up in my bed, played with my hair to make sure it was perfect, and fixed my bra ( just so it could show a little more cleavage than usual). My plan of playing hard to get was still in full affect but I needed to step my game up. This was going to be a little harder than I thought. But this is what he needed.
"Bella?" Edward knocked on the door again. Instead of getting up I used my given gift of telekinesis to turn the door knob and open the door. I opened it slowly and wide enough that only he could walk in. He stood in the entrance with a look of confusion and surprise.
"Telekinesis." I stated simply. " I picked it up from an ex boyfriend of mine." I lied. I giggled to myself at how I was surprisingly keeping a straight face. Anyone who was around would know that I would never date anyone else unless their name was Edward Cullen. His face showed a mirror of hurt.
"I'm kidding. Edward, I got the gift from a crazy fan of mine. He had a huge crush on me and when I kindly turned him down he figured that if he couldn't have me, then nobody could. So i had to...you know...get rid of him." I sighed, "But everything's fine." I said giving Edward an encouraging smile.
"Oh" he replied, his face lighted up like a child on Christmas day. I laughed as he tried to play it off. He walked in the room, and I closed the door behind him. He looked just as surprised as he did when I opened the door." Telekinesis,right" he said to himself for reassurance. He sounded nervous, and I was going to use that to my advantage. "Well, um, you've got great skills. You were amazing out there, who knew anybody could beat Emmett like that?" He walked towards me and sat at the foot of my bed facing me.
"Thanks, I guess somebody had to teach him," I said in pride," I'm sure he'll want a rematch some time soon though." he chuckled in agreement.
We sat there in silence waiting for someone to say something first. "So... is there anything else that you wanted to talk about?" I asked to break the silence.
"Oh, um, also Bella, Carlisle and Esme are a bit upset about earlier." Edward started. Oh yeah, I had completely forgot about them. But what could they have to be upset about? "Not at you though, Esme was a little hurt to find out that she had a grandchild she didn't know about." He finished looking down in shame.
" Oh, I see. I'll make sure I make it a point to go and talk to them." I said reassuringly.
Edward was staring off into space with a blank expression.
"Edward?" I called," Edward...what's wrong?" I waved my hand in front of his face. After a few seconds he came back down to Earth.
"Oh, sorry Bella, Alice was having another one of her visions and it caught me off guard, you know since she hasn't been having them lately." He said giving me that cricked grin that made my dead heart skip a beat.
"She wants us all to go shopping a little later." Thirty years ago, if I were to hear anyone even mention shopping I would run as fast as humanly possible away in the other direction. But now I've developed a like in the sport; that was all we, Arabella and I, mainly did when traveling the world.
"Okay, that sounds good." I replied flipping my hair to the side. Edward raised his eyebrows at my last statement in surprise and suspicion. I decided to start my magic. On my hands and knees, I crawled slowly over to Edward who was still sitting on the bed next to me and stopped directly in front of his face and placed my hand on his.That same shocking feeling occurred once again but I ignored it.
"Oh, Edward you'd be surprised at how much I've changed. I mean, what . else . is . a . woman . to . do . in . her . freetime?" Everytime I paused in between each word I drew my face in closer to his. I could feel his sweet cool breath blowing onto my face and it sent chills up my spine. " It's been 30 years, Edward." I said sensually in his ear. The way I said his name...it could set us both on fire. I grabbed his chin and pulled his ear to my mouth allowing it to touch it slightly. He let out a rough breath.
"Bella" ,he whispered in my ear. I smiled silently at the fact that it was working. He began to stroke my cheek with his smooth palm. I had to control myself from moaning into his touch. " Bella. Why are you doing this?" He asked me in my ear. I moved to sit on his lap, straddling him. I held onto the back of his neck with both hands and smiled.

The Seattle Seahawks make a big statement on Monday night football. Joe Fortenbaugh
Here's where things get very interesting.
With the country tuned in to one of the most highly anticipated Monday night games in recent memory, the Seattle Seahawks decimated the New Orleans Saints, 34-7. At the moment, the public's perception of Seattle is at an all-time high, while some may now be questioning the overall quality of this Saints football team.
Now let's look ahead to Week 14, where Seattle hits the road as a 3.5-point dog against San Francisco, while the Saints open up as a 4.5-point home favorite over red-hot Carolina.
Based on the public's penchant for making wagers based off of what they just witnessed, it won't come as a surprise to any Las Vegas bookmaker if Joe Square walks up to the counter next Sunday looking to play the Seahawks and Panthers.
Which is exactly why we'll consider playing San Francisco and New Orleans.
The numbers in brackets indicate each team's Power Ranking, which is based on a scale of 1-100. These numbers can be used as a baseline to determine the point spread between any two teams on the list. Keep in mind that these numbers do not account for home field advantage, situational analysis (extra rest, back-to-back road games, divisional rivalries, etc), injuries, weather or public perception. They are merely to be used as a baseline for your initial analysis.

Dress of the day: Rare sequin bandeau skater dress
Rare sequin bandeau skater dress £85 >>>
Do you like sequins? I hope so, because today's Dress of the Day is full of them. Rare have definitely delivered on the sparkle front with this party frock, but they've also managed to keep it under £100.
We've noticed the price of sequinned and embellished dresses going up and up over recent years - since when was it ok for a high street dress to be £150? - but this still manages to stay in double figure territory, unlike many alternatives.
If you want to really shine at a new year party, we think this dress would be perfect. Just add a cropped tuxedo jacket and black tights to keep warm!

Soldier poets of the Great War (IV): Robert Graves is over-rated as a poet
I am a fan of Robert Graves' autobiography, but his poetry leaves me cold. For example, these lines just strike me as awkward:
Down pressed the sky, and we, oppressed, thrust out
Boastful tongue, clenched fist and valiant yard.
That said, I did like these other lines of his:
It's hard to know if you're alive or dead
When steel and fire go roaring through your head.

Will Wade saw wasted space.
The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga men's basketball locker and meeting rooms inside McKenzie Arena were separated by one door last year.
Wade had a different idea on how to use the limited space in the arena that is approaching its 31st birthday. The old film room is becoming a gathering room -- a players lounge.
"I think it's important to give our players space over here where they can come and enjoy themselves," Wade said of the facility, which has been funded by sponsors. "It's easier for them to come up to our offices if they're already in the arena. So we want this to be an inviting area."
Hardwood floors were placed down on both sides. The lockers were refurbished. Showers were updated, and so was some of the electronic wiring, so that the locker room doubles as a film room for pre-practice meetings.
New leather-like couches embroidered with the "Power C" have been brought in, and a computer or two are expected to arrive in the near future for the gathering room.
In the new locker room, coaches can show video clips and players can learn by turning their chairs to the flat-screen TV. Or they can look the other way and watch Wade draw up plays on a dry-erase board with full- and half-court diagrams of the McKenzie Arena floor.
"We'll put up TVs, put in a gaming system and a refrigerator," Wade said. "The old film room was chairs in front of a TV.
"It still needs a couple things including a graphics package. We're not done yet."
Sophomore Casey Jones has taken advantage of the new home away from home. He used to take naps at his on-campus apartment. He's now catching afternoon snoozes on a new couch.
"[The room is] only half-finished and it's better than anything I'm used to," Jones said Tuesday night. "I slept on the couch today. It's great. I was out in two minutes."

10 Ways to Protect Your Hands With SPF
We already know the many antiaging benefits of sunscreen. Aside from smoothing it on your complexion, do you apply SPF to your hands, too? Considering the layer of skin on the back of your hands is one of the first places to show signs of aging — think dark spots, wrinkles, and the thinning of your skin — protecting them with a plumping hand cream chock-full of SPF is the least you can do.

Anna DeStefano presents a touching Christmas story about love, loss, and healing—and the joys of coming home.
A childhood spent on the streets leaves Mallory Phillips longing for a normal life and a perfect Christmas. Now an elementary school nurse in Chandlerville, Georgia, Mallory's dream to blend into the picturesque community isn't working out. She's once more living a loner's existence. Then an emotionally fragile seven-year-old appears in her living room in the middle of the night, and Mallory's isolated world is turned upside down.
This is Polly Lombard's first Christmas without her mother, and she won't utter a word to anyone—except Mallory. She believes Mallory holds the key to helping her father overcome his sadness. Despite Pete Lombard's lingering grief over his wife's death and concern for his daughter, his resistance to their mysterious neighbor crumbles as he spends more time with Mallory and falls for her amazing heart. But when her past returns to haunt her, is Mallory strong enough to keep the Lombard family in her life? And can the spirit of Christmas heal these broken souls and bring them all the joyous, loving holiday they deserve?

There is a misconception among many people that cosmetic surgery is only available to the very wealthy. In fact, cosmetic surgery is much more affordable than most people believe it to be. At the Utah Cosmetic Surgery Center, we will work with you to find the best financing options available to help you afford the cosmetic surgery procedures you desire.
There are many avenues available to you to help pay for or finance cosmetic surgery procedures:
Lifestyle Lending
Lifestyle Lending works with credit unions rather than credit card companies. We can help you apply for Lifestyle Lending financing here in our office. In the meantime, learn more by visiting their website.
Medical Insurance
This is an individualized matter. It depends on the type of health insurance you have, and the type of cosmetic surgery procedure you want. With over 10 years of experience in the cosmetic surgery field, our staff can help you navigate the world of insurance. Many people think cosmetic surgery is never covered by their policy – but this is often incorrect. We can help. Contact us today for a consultation to discuss your options.
My Medical Financing
Go to www.medicalfinancing.com and enter your information. they will have a decision to you as soon as 15 minutes or within 24 hours.
Care Credit
Go to www.mycarecredit.com we only accept certain plans and that varies so after approved call us to inquire about which ones we will accept.
Credit Cards
We accept most major credit cards. Remember, the benefits of a cosmetic procedure can last years, even a lifetime. Many patients find that the potential benefits of using a credit card to finance the procedures far outweigh the costs.
Zero Interest
12 month no interest financing available here: www.mlendfinance.com
Our philosophy is that cosmetic surgery should be available to anyone seeking it for the right reasons, no matter how much (or how little) money they have. Don't let any perceived costs or roadblocks deter you from exploring all of your financial options.
For laser tattoo removal or coolsculpting,
please contact Dr Jepson at www.UDMPC.com

SSM1975 Started The Discussion:
Dear Sirs, Pls. clarify the difference between Mock drill and Fire drill and pls post if you have any scenarios on both drills. Thanks in advance. SSM
Dear SSM,
Fire Drill:
A fire drill is a method of practicing the evacuation of a building for a fire or other emergency. Generally, the emergency system (usually an alarm) is activated and the building is evacuated as though a real fire had occurred. Usually, the time it takes to evacuate is measured to ensure that it occurs within a reasonable length of time.
Mock Drill:
Mock drill makes it clear that it is just practice and there is no real fire.
Mr.SSM just go by the below attached link already we had discussed enough on the same topic.
Please let me know.
Dear SSM,
Attached the safe day notice board for your reference. Four months ago you asked to me regarding safe day notice board i got the picture last febrauary actually i forget to upload.
Please let me know.

Dear SSM,
Fire Drill:
A fire drill is a method of practicing the evacuation of a building for a fire or other emergency. Generally, the emergency system (usually an alarm) is activated and the building is evacuated as though a real fire had occurred. Usually, the time it takes to evacuate is measured to ensure that it occurs within a reasonable length of time.
Mock Drill-
The approach for conducting a mock-drill varies as per the complexity of scenario depending upon the potential hazards, response system of the industry and the target community. Therefore, to ensure proper implementation of a drill programme, roles and responsibilities (SOPs) of the concerned personnel, departments, and mechanisms for conducting the drill should be delineated clearly.
Yadvinder Sharma
Safety is not a destination … it is a continuous journey.
Dear Team
Good discussion so far...
Let me share my thought regarding the subject:
I think in the Fire Drill is speacially doing by those Fire Fighters... Involving mainly the fire fighters...
In Mock Drill all the employees are participating and learnig how to deal in case of emergency...
Please correct me If I commented wrongly...
Dear SSM,
i add few points about your query,
Most employees only think of fire drills as annoying interruptions that take time away from the work they have to accomplish that day. But in the event of a real emergency, proper preparation can be the difference between a near-miss and a tragedy.
A well-run fire drill should accomplish several goals. In addition to making sure youve identified all hazards at your facility and employees know how to exit the building safely and efficiently.
And the specific things you want to accomplish will determine what kind of drill to conduct.
Unannounced drills
Unannounced fire drills are a good way to test workers ability to react to a hazardous situation they werent expecting. Conduct unannounced drills to:
When workers are expecting a fire drill, they may not take the exercise as seriously. But announced fire drills still have benefits. Hold planned drills in order to:
Your propably right, for more info please read above .
Thanks for your input.keep on sharing
Dear Raghu
Thanks for your reply...
What my thought is Mock Drill is for all the emergency situation which can arise in a plant... Fire can be one of the emergency... So there is no much difference in both as aim is one...We have to educate the worker to prepare them to dealt with emergency... Whatever name we call it...
Dear Dipil,
I think so, may be your right!!!.
Bullet points:
Mock drill - Its includes all emergencies i.e; flood,hazmat,accident etc..,,
Fire drill - Its only for fire, once fire starts we get/receive signals by fire alarm , smoke etc...,,, but in mock drill there is no options in mock drill we cant get any details what happend exactly but we knew something happend whether its accident/chemical spill etc..,. In fire drill we knew exactly fire happend.
hope its helps. . .
sans1234 - Member Since: Jun 2010
Dear frds
Extremely sorry to interrupt in between your discussion.
Emergency Mock Drill- to practice a event to make more awareness to all employees to react or escape in case of any emergency cases which may Fire or medical or natural disaster or collapsing scaffolding,Public Threatens or terror attack, etc...
mock drill- make more awareness about to handle a situation by conducting drill.
Fire drill- This is also one kind of mock drill which can be tell employee to handle the situation of Fire emergency.

As Usual, Redskins Off To Fast Start On First Day Of Free Agency
By ZAC BOYER | email@example.com | @ZacBoyer
Understanding that a franchise quarterback is nothing without someone to throw the ball to, the Washington Redskins added two receivers shortly after free agency opened on Tuesday and agreed to a new contract with defensive end Adam Carriker.
It was a busy day for the Redskins, who signed Pierre Garcon, formerly of Indianapolis, and Washington native Josh Morgan, who played at Virginia Tech and spent his first four NFL seasons in San Francisco.
The team also filed paperwork with the league to make official a Thursday trade that would help it acquire the No. 2 pick from St. Louis, likely to acquire Baylor quarterback Robert Griffin III. And as the night continued on, it was doing its best to finalize an agreement with a third receiver – Eddie Royal, another former Virginia Tech standout.
With so much activity, there were very few indications that the salary cap penalties assessed to the Redskins by the league Monday affected the team's plans. The NFL docked the team $36 million in available cap space, split evenly over the next two years, for front-loading contracts when there was no salary cap; only creative wording in the deals handed out Tuesday gave any sign that the team was effected.
Washington, which expected to open the new league year with roughly $35 million in available salary for the upcoming season, instead had around half that. It got around that challenge, according to multiple reports, by back-loading contracts and creating unique out clauses; Garcon, for example, was given a five-year, $42.5 million contract with $20.5 million guaranteed but will make only $2.5 million in a base salary this year. Morgan, likewise, agreed to a five-year, $12 million deal that can be voided after two seasons, and Carriker signed a four-year, $20 million contract with $7 million guaranteed that can be bought out after one year.
Carriker, an unrestricted free agent who had a career-high 5.5 sacks last season, had been negotiating with the team for some time. It was merely happenstance, he said, that the team's most agreeable offer came an hour after free agency began.
In a favorable twist, the late offer allowed his agent to take phone calls from other teams. Carriker wouldn't say which, or even how many, teams expressed interest, but that it did help him reinforce that he was reaching a deal with the Redskins for fair market value.
"I mean, I wanted to come back, so I'm glad it worked out this way," said Carriker, a first-round pick of St. Louis in 2008 who made $12.5 million over five years in his rookie contract. "Getting the chance to talk [to other teams] was great. It just worked out that way. If it hadn't worked out, we would have discussed more elsewhere, but it's great that we didn't have to."
Garcon, who grew into a reliable receiver for the Colts over the last four years, was determined to test the market after rejecting a five-year, $35 million deal to stay in Indianapolis in early February. He was the first player to switch teams, announcing on his Facebook page not 45 minutes after the 4 p.m. start to free agency that he would join the Redskins.
"I wanted you all to hear it from me [first] before [you] saw it on the news … I will be signing with the Washington Redskins and I'm very excited about the opportunity in front of me," Garcon's statement read. "I want to thank all Colts fans from the bottom of my heart for all the love and support you've shown me the past [four] years and I hope that at some level [you] will still follow my career, as I will continue to share my life with you on here."
The pairing of Garcon, 25, and Morgan, 26, should allow that rookie quarterback to grow with two moderately experienced targets. The speedy Garcon and sure-handed Morgan will overhaul a passing game that failed to produce a 1,000-yard receiver last year – veteran Jabar Gaffney had 947 yards – because of instability out wide and under center.
It also means the Redskins currently have a logjam at the position, with Gaffney, Santana Moss and six others under contract for 2012.
Washington did not agree to new deals with any of its free agents from last season – among them, linebacker London Fletcher, safety LaRon Landry, quarterback Rex Grossman and running back Tim Hightower – in the hours leading up to the start of the new year, meaning all are free to negotiate with other teams. The Redskins are also yet to address needs at right tackle and in the defensive backfield.

SOS #74 - Out of the Jar
See? So many options.
Being a rebel, I tried to avoid the obvious. I did not want to use embossing powder, but in the end, I did. I wandered around The Captain's Quarters muttering, "Jar , jar, jar ...". I have all my buttons in jars. I have a drawer full of embossing powder and flock. Spray mists and inks are in bottles, not jars, though that might be a technicality.
Then I spied a stack of three (only three) jars of scented embossing powder I'm pretty sure I've never used. I chose the green because I wanted to use the world stamp from one of my Hero Arts OWH sets, and this is what came out:
Now it's YOUR turn. Go through your stash and find something that comes in a jar, then use it. OR, use the image of a jar OR decorate a jar. Then come back to Shopping Our Stash and link us up so we can see what you've made!
Thanks for stopping by!

I love that your card is kinda like a scratch and sniff... ;)

I was just wondering - is it really mild, like scratch & sniff, or does the whole card smell like it? I've seen 'make your own' scented EP by adding cinnamon, etc...I think maybe I need to add it to the list of 'want to try!'

Leslie, This one is puzzling me also as I did not want to use the obvious, but I didn't have a good jar to use either. I might have to end up with the obvious to enter this one. Well your card is fabulous. I love the world, the stamp, the ribbon and most of all that sentiment. Ideal for an OWH card. Enjoy your day.

The gradient background stamp was the prefect choice as a backdrop to draw the eye from the world stamp above to the sentiment below.

i ♥LOVE♥ that you can make cards which are simultaneously old stash AND brand new at the same time. *that* shows talent AND determination!!! as does this gorgeous stampy masterpiece where you've done about 6 different inky things and they all make me thinkm "i should TOTALLY stamp more!!!" :) :) :)
(for the record, i do HAVE stamps AND ink... they are just seriously underemployed except for distressing/aging other elements i want to use. i need to work on using them as FOCAL POINTS, like you do sooooo brilliantly!!!) ♥

And it sounds like we had the same problem....I did alot of wandering around before I actually made my card too. I plan on getting on track and getting mine made before the last minute from now on!! (that was my little pep talk! ;) lol)

LOL i always forget those embossing powers so I grabbed it as a change to use it.
Beautiful card. Love the soft colors and how the tape lets the pattern shows through.
