That would allow to add motion charts to both global and project dashboards.
Moreover this should now be the responsibility of the widget to decide/configure :
- which metric should be used on each axe
- the size of the motion chart
- which level should be displayed (in case of a project dashboard => display the project or its components?)

@Fabrice, here are several improvements :
- Rename the "Global Motion Chart" into "Filter Motion Chart"
- Always display a title for the "Filter Motion Chart" and this title should always contain the filter which is used to determine the resources to be displayed
- The way to display title in project dashboard is different than the one used in the TimeLine and History Table widgets so I guess we should decide what is the official pattern
- It not possible to select a filter which returns some views or developers. In that case, we get a rails error : "undefined method `created_at' for nil:NilClass"
- When we select a filter which returns a lot of files, only a short part of them seem to be displayed.
- The components checkbox should be available only in edit mode and should be selected by default (as this is currently the case). We could even imagine to fully remove this property (as displaying only the current resource doesn't seem to be very valuable) and to replace it by another "display source files" property to display either : the measures at file level or the measures at sub-components level
- The default height should be 400
All fixed (though I could not reproduce the problem with views or developers, this works perfectly on my side on Postgres & H2).
Perfect Fabrice ! I've done several tests and I guess the most useful metrics by default should be :
- metric-y : coverage (no change)
- metric-x : lines of code (instead of RCI)
- metric-size : violations
- metric-color : duplicated lines
Could you also slightly update the description of the Filter Motion Chart :
Displays a motion chart showing the evolution over time of a set of metrics on the result of specified filter
I also know when the rails error : "undefined method `created_at' for nil:NilClass" is raised : this is when a filter doesn't return any result. So this is a very minor issue.
Feedback applied + display "No data" if a filter returns no resource.

Rep. Ben Lujân (D-Nambé) survived a challenge for his decade-long hold as Speaker of the House on Saturday (Nov. 20) from Rep. Joe Cervantes (D-Las Cruces) but the possibility of a handful of Democrats forming a coalition with Republicans to oust Luján still exists.
New Mexico state House Democrats caucused behind closed doors for about three and a half hours Saturday to select party officers for the upcoming legislative session, which begins Jan. 18.
Reportedly, Saturday's session included some rollicking debate and eventually Rep. Andy Nuñez (D-Hatch) nominated Cervantes for the speakership. A vote followed but since the media were kept out of the session, it's not known how close Cervantes came to toppling Luján. However, in the days leading up to Saturday's caucus, a number of representatives from southern New Mexico including Nuñez and Dona Irwin (D-Luna County) said they wanted a change at the speaker's level.
After Luján won Saturday's vote, the caucus reappointed the 75-year-old speaker by acclamation.
Saturday's victory is a significant one for Luján but he could still be replaced should his opposition on the Democratic side form a coalition with House Republicans. Democrats will hold a 37-33 advantage in the upcoming session so, theoretically, if all 33 Republicans form a unified block and three Democrats join them in support of a challenger to Luján, a change could be made.
Would Cervantes be willing to put his name out there as a challenger in January? After Saturday's caucus, he was coy while Luján downplayed any hard feelings or threat of political retribution:
Despite Saturday's result, Nuñez said he wants changes at the top, even if it means risking his chairmanship of the House Agriculture and Water Resources Committee:
In other moves by the caucus, Rep. Patty Lundstrom (D-Gallup) was named caucus chair, defeating challenges from Rep. Moe Maestas (D-Albuquerque) and Rep. Eliso Lee Alcon (D-Milan) and Rep. Sheryl Williams Stapleton (D-Albuquerque) defended her position as party whip by defeating a challenge from Rep. Thomas Garcia (D-Ocate).

It's generally a good idea for most investors to consider including a Roth IRA in their overall retirement planning. Roth IRAs have the potential to grow tax-free, which may help you save more over time. Plus, withdrawals aren't mandatory during the lifetime of the original owner, and Roth IRA assets may pass to your heirs tax-free.
Determining if a Roth is right for you
Ready to get started?
Roth Conversion Checklists
Follow these simple steps to convert your Traditional IRA or old 401(k) to a Roth IRA.
Anyone can convert their eligible IRA assets to a Roth IRA regardless of income or marital status. Prior to 2010, only those account owners who had a modified adjusted gross income below $100,000 were eligible to convert.
Despite its advantages, Roth may not be the preferred option for all investors. There are three important factors—taxes, time, and costs—that you should consider before you decide if conversion is right for you. Fidelity's Roth Conversion FAQs can help you weigh these factors and get answers to important questions you may have. Be sure to consult with your tax advisor with regard to your personal circumstances.
To learn more about the differences between Roth and Traditional IRAs and get a quick overview of eligibility and features, use the Roth or Traditional IRA Contribution Evaluator.
It's also important to note that if you are required to take a minimum required distribution (MRD) in the year you convert to a Roth IRA, you must do so before converting.
Considerations for owners of Roth IRAs
Generally, converted assets in the Roth IRA must remain there for at least five years to avoid penalties and taxes. Distributions from a Roth IRA are tax-free and penalty-free provided that the five-year aging requirement has been satisfied and at least one of the following conditions has been met:
- You reach age 59½
- You pass away
- You become disabled
- You make a qualified first-time home purchase
MRDs are not required during the lifetime of the original owner of a Roth IRA. MRD amounts are not eligible to be converted to a Roth IRA.
Rolling a 401(k) directly into a Roth IRA
If you qualify, you can do an eligible rollover distribution from your old 401(k) directly to a Roth IRA. You'll owe taxes on the amount of pretax assets you roll over.
Note also, if you have assets in a Designated Roth Account (i.e., Roth 401(k)) and would like to roll these to an IRA, the assets must be rolled into a Roth IRA.
As with Traditional IRA conversions to Roth IRAs, if you are required to take an MRD in the year you roll over into an IRA, you must take it before rolling over your assets.
Learn more about your rollover options
Converting back to a Traditional IRA
Should you wish to convert your Roth IRA back to a Traditional IRA, the process is known as recharacterization. The deadline to recharacterize Roth IRA conversion contributions to a Traditional IRA is generally October 15 if you file your federal income tax return (or file for an extension) on time.
If you have recently recharacterized your account, those assets cannot be reconverted back to a Roth IRA before the later of:
- The beginning of the calendar year following the calendar year of conversion.
- The end of the 30-day period beginning on the day of the recharacterization.
Consult your tax advisor to determine your eligibility to complete a recharacterization or a reconversion.

WEST PALM BEACH — Appearing with a dozen Democratic elected officials a few blocks away from potential rival Lois Frankel's office, state Sen. Ted Deutch, D-Boca Raton, said his congressional campaign has already topped $100,000 in contributions since setting up a campaign web site late Thursday.
Deutch is running for the seat of U.S. Rep. Robert Wexler, D-Boca Raton, who last week announced he's stepping down in January to head the nonprofit Center for Middle East Peace and Economic Cooperation.
Deutch's campaign today announced endorsements from 16 elected Democrats. Most of them stood behind Deutch outside the Palm Beach County Governmental Center this morning. The endorsers include County Commissioner Burt Aaronson, who said he gave "a lot of thought" to running for Wexler's seat.
"I guess I didn't want to be the oldest freshman that ever served in Congress," said Aaronson, who is 81.
Aaronson, elected five times to a south-county seat with many of the same constituents as Wexler, said he believes he could have been elected, but wouldn't have as much of a long-term future as the 43-year-old Deutch.
"I'd be interfering with someone's chances of being a congressman a long time and serving the people," Aaronson said. "For once in my life, ego did not take over being smart."
The Deutch endorsement announcement rollout took place about two blocks away from West Palm Beach Mayor Frankel's office. Frankel has said she's considering running for Wexler's Palm Beach-Broward seat.
Former Palm Beach County Commissioner Addie Greene, a friend of Frankel since their days together in the state House, was among those appearing with Deutch this morning. She said she hasn't talked to Frankel since Wexler's announcement, but doesn't think Frankel will run.
"I personally don't think she's going to run because she's done such a good job and she's got a lot on her plate that she has to complete," Greene said of Frankel.
"I like both of them," she said of Frankel and Deutch.
Frankel said she's still weighing her options and her responsibilities as mayor make it tough to make a quick decision.
"Believe it or not, I have a day job," Frankel said. "I really and truly love what I'm doing. I've got so many things in the fire I can't just drop something and say I'm going to run for Congress."

So beautiful!!! Makes me homesick!
The fog settled heavily over Lancaster County this morning, changing the appearance of our surroundings. The haze hovered above the meadows and farmland, hiding the crops and grazing cows. Even the colorful trees were cloaked in a soft shade of gray.

Tim Cook says he has no problem porting Apple apps to Android
0. phoneArena 28 May 2013, 22:47 posted on
Tim Cook has been letting loose a string of pretty interesting soundbytes so far during his talk at the AllThingsD D11 conference. He has talked about Google Glass, Apple's APIs, and the fabled iPhablet, but maybe the most interesting quote of the day was his comment on the possibility of Apple possibly porting its apps to Android. It wasn't an admission that it would happen, but Cook was far more accepting of the idea than you might think...

|Got to Lake Blanch in little over an hour. Made it to the Peak in another 1-1/2hr or so. Instead of going on the way explained on the page, ascended up a valley just to the west then cutting east to the ridge. Seemed easier than hiking through the boulder fields. Perfect weather.

Date Climbed: Jul 2, 2010
|Like vanman798 suggested. I did the South Summit of Sundial via the Crazy Man Couloir, only difference is that there is very little snow now and the entire route is loose, wet, or otherwise dirty. BUT it was a very fun scramble and only required careful hand/foot placement and good judgement.

|11th Hour
Date Climbed: Sep 6, 2013
|Sept 6, 2013 - William DaBell and I did the 11th hour route, we each lead 2 pitches.
June 8, 2012, Tristan Higbee and I climbed Sundial Peak via the 11th Hour route. Tristan lead the first 3 pitches and I lead the last one. We meet at 10:00 am at the Lake Blanche trailhead, and it took as about 1.5 hours to reach the lake. By noon we were at the base of the route. It took us 3.5 hours to do the four pitches, so we arrived on top at around 4 pm. We scrambled up to the highest point of the North Peak, and then rapped down the crazy man couloir area (2-raps). We were back at the route starting point by 5:40 pm, and back to the cars by 7:40 pm (9.5 hours total trip time).
May 31, 2010 - Via The Crazy Man Couloir. Decided to see if we could find a route up between the two peaks. We did find a sort of psuedo couloir, on the east side, that lead up between the two peaks, which we nick named "The Crazy Man Couloir" (cause it had several tricky spots and some very steep spots). Try it, you might like it!!!

Date Climbed: Jul 1, 2006
|Back before I knew any better I tried to solo the route SW of Corner (~5.7, 4 pitches) and probably came closer than I'd like to admit to killing myself. I traversed right to easier ground (but looser!) and got off the thing.
A year later I went back and rope-soloed the route, which was a slow and laborious process, but much safer. I'd like to get back to do Eleventh Hour one of these days.

Mumbai, Apr 11 (TruthDive): In a sting operation conducted by a victim himself, 32 cops from Mumbai were suspended after they were caught in a camera accepting bribe to allow illegal constructions in Mumbai's Kurla area.
The police personnel, who were bribed range from the rank of police constables to assistant sub-inspectors.They were issued a suspension order after recorded footage showed them accepting bribe from Mohammed Khan, at the Kurla (West) Refugee Camp. All the suspended cops were said to be attached to Nehru Nagar police station.
Mumbai police commissioner issued the suspension order to the cops after state home minister RR Patil ordered the commissioner to take immediate action. It was Mohammed Khan who carried out the sting operation in which the camera footage showed the cops collecting a total of Rs 45,000 over the past ten days from Khan.
Initially, Khan approached the Anti- Corruption Bureau (ACB) to reveal the matter, but it did not pay much heed to the matter and turned away Khan, after which Khan submitted the record to the local Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP), who initiated an inquiry.
Khan said that the cops told him that they were sent by their senior officers to collect the money. The spy camera which was fixed ten days ago recorded each and every action of the visiting cops.
Talking to reporters, Khan said that after the cops learnt about the modification work carried out at his friend's residence they made a frequent visit to his friend's house after which he planned to fix a spy camera.
Assistant commissioner of police Milind Bhise who was handed over the case, prepared the inquiry report based on which action was taken against the cops, said Deputy Commissioner of police (Zone VI) Lakhmi Gautam.
It is a shame on the police department, said Mumbai Police Commissioner Satyapal Singh who also added saying that all the apprehended cops were constables and not officers.

My name is Brian Beebe and this is my sophomore year at Kenston High School. I signed up for Web Design because I am interested in being involved with the Kenston Website, and hope to improve it.
Presently, my computer background consists of several elementary computer classes, as well as self taught knowledge. I hope to contribute to the KHS Website by working on photography and reporting interesting stories. Besides Website Design and Maintenance, I am taking Literature as Entertainment, Honors English II, and Health this semester.
When I am not in the classroom, I like to hang out with friends and play guitar. My favorite TV show is Scrubs. My favorite radio station is 96.5 Kiss FM. My all-time favorite movie is I Am Legend. And my favorite band is The Dave Matthews Band.
I hope you enjoy the 2008-2009 version of the KHS Website.

The Adventure Racing World Championships in Portugal is set to begin this Sunday, the 8th and end the following Saturday, the 13th. The race consists of The world's best adventure racing teams, including team nuun-FeedTheMachine, making the continuous trek across 800 km of Portugal's diverse and rugged terrain.

It's been nearly a year since Detroit rapper Big Sean struck gold with his debut album Finally Famous: The Album, and already the G.O.O.D. Music rapper has become a certified Hip Hop star. Now, with his crew's project still on the horizon, Sean reveals that fans can expect his sophomore LP in stores later this summer.
In a recent interview with Mr. Peter Parker, Sean said that his second studio album will be out sometime this summer, with a single dropping later this June. He explained that with this next project, he focused on progressing both his sound and lyrical content. Although he did say that it won't be in short supply of chart topping smashes, he wants this project to inspire his younger fan base.
"[The album's] already almost done," he said. "It's coming out this summer…we're about to drop the first single off it this month.
He added, "I feel like this album is gonna surprise people. I remember being on my solo tour when I was in Colorado. It was cold as shit, it was snowing, and this kid was outside my bus - he was like 13 years old. He was outside all day…so my manager was like, 'Yo, you gotta meet this kid, he's been outside all day.' So we brought him inside the bus…we gave him a ticket to the show…we saw him after the show and we brought him backstage, and he was crying. He was like, 'Man, you're my hero, dawg. I just wanna make a better life just like how you did for your mom. Anything you tell me to do I'll do'…so when that dude was crying, that's when I realized that when you've got the mic and the crowd, you gotta say something or else that moment and that time will just be forgotten about and lost, so for this one, I'm really making music…[to] progress peoples' minds and give young people an inspiration."

There's rumored to be a 200m indoor track being built in Pittsburgh. Claims are that it will be open this year. Anyone have any recent updates on this?
There's rumored to be a 200m indoor track being built in Pittsburgh. Claims are that it will be open this year. Anyone have any recent updates on this?
They updated their fb today saying there have been.lots of delays due to local government (which seems fishy to me) and weather (slightly less fishy.).
If You Meet The Buddha On The Road, Kill Him
"We've been getting a lot of questions about construction updates and the launch of our website. We wish that we could give you the news that we are opening the velodrome next week; however, both local government delays and mother-nature make that impossible. Our full website will give you a better look into the construction process as well as the progress. We are currently putting some finishing touches on the website, but look out for the official launch early next week!"
I'm looking forward to the updated website. From what I've been able to dig up, it looks like there is a structure built on the site of the velodrome. Whether there's any track at all inside is info I've been unable to find. I would assume that once it's actually *built*, there's a damn fine chance of it coming into use.
Anyone in the area? Anyone in the know?
Really wish these guys had this finished over the winter. Have to drive 8 hours to get some time on an open track. Also the advantage of winter training cyclist capture with all the snow the Burgh has gotten has been lost. With that said, I have gotten timely updates and friendly responses to all my inquires on the progress of the velo. Hoping for the best for these guys and gals.
I was really into bestiality, sadomasochism, and necrophilia, but then I realized I was just beating a dead horse
This was posted on fb 2 hrs ago.
Thanks to Blue Archer, our website just went live!
See all of your options at the velodrome-- whether you want to race, ride, train, or just watch.
Check it out: Home | Island 200 Velodrome
We should be opening by late spring or early summer. You can see the construction updates and stay posted on the new website!
#velodrome #pittsburgh #cycling
If You Meet The Buddha On The Road, Kill Him
Ah ha! It seems that every time there's a post here, there's another progression at Island200. Maybe if we keep on it here, there will be a Pittsburgh velodrome by April.
Fingers crossed.
Very cool, glad its coming together! Toronto's track (250m) will be done this summer, so that will be 3 indoor tracks in the area next winter. No more off season!

Kanye West, Jay-Z take early lead at Grammy Awards
LOS ANGELES Everybody's thinkin' about Frank Ocean - but his main competition Kanye West and Jay-Z took home two early Grammy Awards.
They won best rap song and best rap performance in the pre-telecast awards Sunday for the song "N----s in Paris" from their "Watch the Throne" collaboration, joining Skrillex, Esperanza Spalding, Chick Corea and Matt Redman atop the pre-telecast awards show toteboard.
Other early winners included Rihanna, Beyonce, Taylor Swift and Mumford & Sons.
Ocean is a cause celebre and the man with the momentum as Sunday's Grammy Awards. One of six top nominees with six nominations apiece, Ocean - the 25-year-old R&B singer turned cultural talking point - will have the music world's attention.
It remains to be seen if it will be the "Thinkin Bout You" singer's night, but there's no question he's dominated the discussion so far. Already a budding star with a gift for building buzz as well as crafting songs, Ocean was swept up by something more profound when he told fans his first love was a man last fall as he prepared to release his major-label debut, "channel ORANGE."
It was a bold move and one that could have submarined his career before it really even got started. Instead, everyone from Beyonce to the often-homophobic R&B and rap communities showed public support. It was a remarkable moment.
"It speaks to the advancements of our culture," renowned producer Rick Rubin said. "It feels like the culture's moving forward and he's a representative of the new acceptance in the world for different ideas, which just broadens (our experience), makes the world a better place."
A recent altercation in a parking lot with Chris Brown only focused more attention on Ocean. Ocean says Brown was the aggressor; both are competing against each other in one of the Grammy categories.
Ocean is up for the major awards best new artist, album of the year and record of the year when the show airs live on CBS at 8 p.m. EST from the Staples Center, sharing top-nominee billing with fun., Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys, Mumford & Sons, Jay-Z and West.
The Grammy pre-telecast awards had 70 trophies up for grabs, including rock, pop, rap and country categories. Skrillex won three early awards for dance music, while former best new artist winner Esperanza Spalding, jazz man Chick Corea and Christian singer-songwriter Matt Redman had two wins apiece.
Spalding had one of the most touching moments of the pre-telecast awards show, taking the stage with her longtime jazz teacher Thara Memory for their win in the best instrumental arrangement accompanying vocalist category. She also won for best jazz vocal album for her "Radio Music Society."
Corea, who competed against himself in two categories, won best improvised jazz solo for "Hot House" with Gary Burton and best instrumental composition for "Mozart Goes Dancing."
And Redman won best gospel/contemporary Christian music performance and best contemporary Christian music song (in a tie) for "10,000 Reasons (Bless The Lord)."
Other early winners included Rihanna, who won short form music video for "We Found Love" featuring Calvin Harris, and Taylor Swift won her seventh Grammy for best song written for visual media for "Safe & Sound," her collaboration with The Civil Wars on "The Hunger Games" soundtrack. It was Swift's seventh Grammy and the third for Joy Williams and John Paul White of The Civil Wars.
"I think it's appropriate that Taylor thanks us because we've been carrying her for a while and it's getting really tiring," White joked.
Beyonce won for best traditional R&B performance. Mumford & Sons took their first Grammy, winning along with Old Crow Medicine Show and Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros for their long form video documentary "Big Easy Express."

Big rat, little possum
Researchers in a remote jungle in Indonesia have discovered a giant rat and a tiny possum that are apparently new to science, scientists said Monday. The animals were found in a rain forest of the Foja mountains in eastern Papua province in a June expedition, said U.S.-based Conservation International, which organized the trip along with the Indonesian Institute of Science. A 2006 expedition to the same stretch of jungle — dubbed by Conservation International as a "Lost World" because until then humans had rarely visited it — unearthed scores of exotic new species of palms and butterflies.

(2002) Former Quarter resident JOHN GRACE writes...
During the mid 70's to the early 80's I lived at 910 Chartres Street in a great apartment right next to Harry's Bar. Now during that time there was this guy who walk around barefooted, dressed in some sort of Arabian get up (more like rags), he had a big gray beard, looked mid-eastern, and as he walked around, he would, in the most booming voice, speak some gibberish that sound like a blessing. Of course, after receiving these blessing we all felt obliged to give a small donation. We use to just call him King of the Burning Sands. Any idea who this guy was?
ALAN TAUB on the meeting of the two Kings….
To reply to an inquiry by John Grace who wanted to know about the "King of the Burning Sands," I can offer some info. I once had an actual conversation with this gentleman when I bought him lunch at the "Burger King" shortly after it opened on Canal Street.
He was quite lucid and spoke very eloquently. He told me he was from the Michigan area, raised in a nice family and actually obtained a Ph.D. as he once taught in a University up north. He spoke very much like anyone else would during a casual lunch conversation, so I had no reason to disbelieve his story. Not like his outside-booming, undeterminable style one would hear as he would pass on the street. He was actually saying, "Pardon me sir [ma'am] would you kindly spare me some money for a bite to eat." However, after affectations and the constant redundancy of his always same request, it sounded garbled and indistinguishable...much like a foreign chant. I doubt he even cared that most would pass him by, not realizing what he had indeed said. Since he looked so exotic, clad in a brown blanket, feet bare, wild hair and beard, I can understand how John surmised this distinguished street-chap to be "mid-eastern."
I can't say what his name was, but I remember reading in the "Times-Picayune" about several years ago that some family members came down here to bring his body back home to Michigan, when he passed away.
STUART AULD on Lord Michael's Bible…
I used to work in a cafe on St. Philip Street at Chartres, called Until Waiting Fills. The guy John Grace asked about is Lord Michael. He was pretty bilious - his delivery sounded like "Sir can you spare me some money for a BRRRAAAAAP to eat". He would sit for hours in the cafe, nursing a coffee & chicory, until the owner, Diane, realized he was refilling it from a bottle of MD20/20 stashed in the drawer of a desk he would sit at. He always carried a bag in which he kept the new version of the Bible his voices were dictating to him. Once when he was hauled off to jail, he left the "Bible" in the safekeeping of one of the other employees. We checked it out - it was mostly pictures cut out of porno magazines, interspersed with holy gibberish, all meticulously laminated with lots, LOTS of Scotch tape.
His family eventually found him here when he was hospitalized for some ailment (liver damage seems likely) and took him back to Chicago, maybe 10 years ago. Haven't heard anything about him since. I never once saw him wearing shoes, regardless of the time of year, and always in black.
MICHAEL CHAPOTON decodes the King…
In the late 1980's he moved across Canal St and worked the corner area of Baronne and Common. I'd see him almost every morning. However, I haven't seen him in about ten years. I have also deciphered his "gibberish." What he actually said, and I had a couple of buddies confirm, is,
"...'cusemesirdoyouhaveadimeforcupofcoffee." Or, slowed down, "...excuse me sir, do you have a dime for a cup of coffee?"
GARY PITTS, former Quarterite stumbles into King of Burning Sands…
I don't know who he was, but one afternoon, about 8 years ago, I had just about enough vodka at the Golden Lantern, and was headed for the Verti Marte on Royal Street, when this guy turned the corner at Barracks. He shouted his usual gibberish, and, after 18 years of hearing it, I UNDERSTOOD IT!! What he was saying was, "Sir, can you spare a quarter for a bite to eat?"
I was blown away! Why, I had to go right back inside and have another drink!

PULLMAN — Washington State has made some big changes, hiring a new coach and dramatically upgrading the stadium.
The question now is if the team it puts on the field will be any different from previous versions.
Former Texas Tech coach Mike Leach took over for the fired Paul Wulff and is expected to bring his high-flying offensive schemes to the Palouse. Ticket sales and interest in WSU football are way up since Leach was hired last November.
"We'll just do the best we can and try to win one game a week," Leach said.
Leach was 84-43 at Texas Tech and took the Red Raiders to 10 bowl games. He was fired in 2009 amid allegations he mistreated a player with a concussion.
Under Wulff, the Cougars were 9-40 the past four seasons, just 4-32 in the conference. The Cougars often got blown out at home and on the road.
Things did get slightly better last year, when WSU finished 4-8 while being competitive in more games. But it was too late for Wulff.
Leach accepted a contract worth more than $2 million a year, richest in program history, to try to return the Cougars to the prominence they enjoyed in the early 2000s, when they had three 10-win seasons in a row.
One of Leach's first decisions will be to pick between senior Jeff Tuel and sophomore Connor Halliday for the starting quarterback job.
Two weeks into training camp, Leach had still not revealed his choice, although most observers expect Tuel to remain the starter.
"I think they both are very much ahead of schedule, and both are better than expected," Leach said after the first scrimmage. "Both Jeff and Connor have good leadership skills, throw the ball well and are quick learners."
The often-injured Tuel became a starter as a freshman. As a sophomore, he threw for 2,780 yards, with 18 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. But he played in only a handful of games last season because of an injured shoulder. Halliday threw for WSU freshman records of 494 yards and four touchdowns in a win over Arizona State last year, but suffered a lacerated liver against Utah and played in only four games. Both figure to be more mobile than Marshall Lobbestael, who threw for 2,584 yards in his final season.
Whoever starts at quarterback, the top target figures to be Marquess Wilson, who caught 82 passes last year for 1,388 yards and 12 touchdowns. Bobby Ratliff, who caught 28 passes for 348 yards, is back. Also on hand are Bennett Bontemps, Gino Simone and a slew of younger players led by touted freshman Gabriel Marks
Running backs are not superfluous in Leach's Air Raid offense. Last year's leading rusher, Rickey Galvin, returns, although in fall camp he has spent time as a slot receiver. Galvin gained 602 yards and had a 5.3-yard average last year.
Also fighting for playing time will be senior Carl Winston, freshman Teondray Caldwell, sophomore Marcus Mason, redshirt junior Leon Brooks and junior college transfer Theron West. Winston carried the ball 142 times last year for 442 yards.
Much depends on an offensive line that must do a better job of protecting quarterbacks from injury.
The Cougars are thin on the defensive front seven, in part because of Leach's tough discipline style.
Three potential starters have been kicked off the team since Leach took over.
Linebacker C.J. Mizell, perhaps the program's best athlete, was kicked off after an alleged altercation at a fraternity party earlier this year. Linebacker Sekope Kaufusi was kicked off after he was arrested in a marijuana possession case. Defensive tackle Anthony Laurenzi was kicked off after the alleged theft of a pair of headphones.
That left the team with less experience at linebacker than expected, and a thin depth chart on the defensive line.
Opponents who come to Pullman this season will see a dramatic change in Martin Stadium, where an $80 million expansion added a three-story structure that houses luxury suites and the press box. The luxury seats are expected to pump $3 million more into what has long been a cash-strapped program.
The new addition completely changes the profile of the 35,000-seat bowl.
Designed and built in just 18 months, the privately funded addition will be ready in time for the home opener Sept. 8 against Eastern Washington, associate athletic director John Johnson said. It is funded by a combination of ticket sales, donations and television revenue.

For those of you keeping score at home, the Mayans got it wrong. If demographers have it right, about 7 billion souls will accompany an intact Planet Earth as it continues its journey through this small corner of the universe. Nevertheless, there are various celebrities and sports figures who "shuffled off their mortal coil" during 2012 and will not join the rest of us on said journey.
This compendium recognizes their passing…
Don Carter converted his final 7-10 split into a spare.
Don Mueller singled to right field for the final time.
Jim Huber went off the air.
Tony Blankley offered his final political analysis.
Gene Bartow followed John Wooden at UCLA then followed John Wooden into Heaven.
Richard Threkeld filed his final story.
Byron Donzis obviated his need ever to wear a flak jacket.
Marty Springstead called his final third strike.
Etta James made it to the Pearly Gates At Last.
Johnny Otis taught St. Peter how to do the hand jive.
Joe Paterno joined Bear Bryant as co-head coaches at Heaven U.

Charlie Spoonhour got a TTJ – a Transfer To Jesus.
Angelo Dundee laced up a boxer's gloves for the final time.
Dave Duerson cleaned the clock of an opposing wide receiver one last time.
Whitney Houston got a Celestial Discharge.
[Aside: I was in Australia when news of her death broke. The news crawl at the bottom of our CNN International feed froze with the words "Whitney Houston died in a …" on it. Others on the trip guessed "plane crash" or "car accident" or "domestic violence situation". My guess was "drug induced stupor".]
Freddie Solomon caught his final TD pass.
James Farentino taped his final ER episode.
Ben Gazzara started looking for character acting roles in Heaven.
Gary Carter caught his final game.
Harry Wendlestadt threw his final manager out of a game.
Alex Webster took it off tackle for the final time.
Davy Jones took the Last Train to Clarksville and St. Peter met him at the station.
The print edition of The Encyclopedia Brittanica went paws up.
Furman Bisher wrote his final column for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Mel Parnell pitched his final shut-out.
Ron Erhardt ran his last practice.
Lacy Banks covered his last NBA game.
This Week In Baseball turned off the cameras for the final time.
Bert Sugar stubbed out his cigar and did the first interview with Angelo Dundee in Heaven.
Dennis Bennett hung his one last curveball.
Earl Scruggs played Foggy Mountain Breakdown in the Celestial Club with God in the VIP section.
Giorgio Chinaglia scored on his final penalty kick.
Jerry Lynch hit his last pinch homerun.
Chief Jay Strongbow stared up at the lights for the last time.
Joe Avezzano drew up his final punt coverage play.

Mark Lenzi did one last two-and a half gainer in the pike position.
Dwayne Schintzius slammed his final dunk.
Rich Saul snapped his last football.
Dick Clark watched the ball drop on his lifetime
[Aside: With the passing of Don Cornelius in February, this was not a particularly good year for hosts of teen dance shows on TV.]
Charles Colson found out that political dirty tricks are unnecessary in Heaven.
Bill "Moose" Skowron did lunch with the Grim Reaper.
Amarillo Slim did not fill his straight on the river.
[Aside: Since he remains dead 8 months after the fact, we can properly assume he is not running a bluff here.]
Junior Seau executed his final blitz and got a Celestial Discharge.
George Lindsey – Gomer Pyle's brother, Goober – went to the Great Gas Station In the Sky.
Vidal Sassoon got his hair cut for the last time.
Carroll Shelby drove his Cobra right through the Pearly Gates.
Mike McGrady was neither naked nor a stranger to St. Peter.
Donna Summer had her Last Dance.
[Aside: In addition to being a bad year for hosts of teen dance shows, this was not a good year for rock musicians like Earl Scruggs, Whitney Houston, Etta James, Johnny Otis and Davy Jones.]

Robin Gibb was no longer Stayin' Alive.
Johnny Tapia was TKO'd.
Jack Twyman sank one last jump shot.

Pedro Borbon assumed room temperature.
Ray Bradbury was glad to see that the temperature in Heaven was not 451 Degrees Fahrenheit.
Bob Welch began his Heavenly search for a Sentimental Lady.

R.C. Owens caught his final "Alley Oop Pass".
LeRoy Neiman began sketching Jesse Owens' portrait in Heaven.
Karl Malden stopped patrolling the Streets of San Francisco.
Nora Ephron began sampling the "gastroporn" in Heaven.
Andy Griffith passed through the Pearly Gates and George Lindsey greeted him with a "Hey!"

Listening to Murph and Andy and cannot get over the butthurt right now. Also saw a article from Tommy Birch. Same butthurt.
I know do we really need another thread? probably not. But It is ridiculous right now.
Even sounded like M&A took a jab at Lazard. Saying (paraphrasing) well I never heard Lazard not answer any of the questions he was asked.
Listening to M&A as well. It would appear that CPR comments really got under Murph's skin for some reason. Not sure why he (and other's in the media) are freaking out about this. My god, the kid probably wanted the media to leave him alone finally and asked CPR to say as much.
Go Cyclones!
28 minutes into the show and they are still talking about their buthurt! As always...the media making the story about themselves...
Garmen was all up in arms too....Ken Miller to an extent as well.
wish they would have some guts and get Rhoads on and talk 1 on 1 about it.
These are the same guys who complain about how coaches give "coach speech" all the time. Then when a coach speaks his mind, they get all butthurt.
Hey, maybe if you didn't run article after article of speculating if Lazard is 100%, you might earn some good graces. Even Marty Tirrell admitted he is eating crow.
Someone else commented that all Iowa's freshmen are off-limits to the press. Can anyone confirm that? if so, what is the big deal about Lazard being off limits. Probably just the fact that CPR had the "balls" to call out the press. Good for him!
This threads has butthurt over the medias butthurt over Rhoads butthurt
The media did this to themselves. Actually unfollowed Murphy on twitter because his tweets about it were so annoying. He doesn't run this program, and his media buddies wore out their welcome.
Self-Proclaimed Smartest and Goodest Looking Poster on Cyclone Fanatic 4 years running*
*Fitzy not included
Murph and Andy don't get it BECAUSE they are so impartial and neither is truly and Iowa or ISU fan.
Sears is an obvious Hawkeye fan with an axe to grind against ISU. He called ISU "Clowns" in a broadcast and then a few weeks later did that incredibly insulting interview. I like Murph and Andy a lot, but they're defending their friend too hard here. Anyone who thinks those two things are just coincidence is being willfully ignorant, nobody could know for sure, but it's highly unlikely.
I have no way to call in, but I hope ISU fans that do make sure they tell them they know they are making all good points...but they're not a part of the rivalry like Sears and many many other local media people clearly are.
M&A said it was justified to keep asking because of the guy who switched from Iowa to Alabama, and also because of ISU's bad season. WTF...

True and the fact Lazard left open the possibility of going to ND.
Did CPR call out all of the media or just some in particular? There were a lot of tweets(?) on here last fall attributed to Tirrell calling out Lazard for not going to Notre Dame. I didn't think CPR's comments were about all the media, just a few.

I have butthurt over your butthurt comment!

I'll be waiting for the day someone on WHO covers an Iowa "Squawks" game and then a few weeks later has an interview with Iowa's best recruit ever asking him why he doesn't dump Iowa 20 times. I mean since it's all simple and no media members are anti-ISU it's bound to happen!
So delusional. I forgive them because it comes from wanting to defend their coworker, but in this case their nature of being outside the rivalry is blinding them.
Is there video of Sears calling ISU the Clowns?

Aren't those something to worry about? Shouldn't I be monitored, taking it easy, or something?!
Does that look like a bleed to you? Next to the words BABY?
This board does not move as quickly as the birth boards do and there aren't nearly as many members. I read your post but unfortunately really have no idea. I am new and I didn't even get a decent pic of my SCH to compare it to.
Hopefully someone else can give you feedback but it may just be that everyone who has seen your post isn't sure what to say!
I don't have a clear answer for you on this one, but it looks like that could be a possibility or it could be nothing at all. Are you having any bleeding? Any other complications? I know that SCH's can be very scary and that if it is small you want it to stay that way, so rest up and drink your fluids and seek information. I have a picture of my SCH but it is huge so it probably wouldn't help make sense of anything. It was well bigger than the size of both of my babies put together at 9 weeks. I know that on this board there are pictures people have posted of their diagnosed SCH's, so maybe you could browse through them and see if there is anything similar.

Can I ask why or how you knew to ask about SCH? Not being snarky, just curious. Many pregnant ladies don't know about SCH until they have their first bleed or have a previous history...
And to jump on what a PP said, this board is different than some of the others, but you will find great support here if you have a SCH.
Mine never looked like that, but my docs weren't concenred until around 20 weeks when they realized it was like 12CM across. I wouldn't get all uptight about not getting an answer right away, this board doesn't move that quick.

Hi Guys,
We're currently in the process of migrating our mail accounts to Zimbra. In doing so I'm unsure how to migrate our current shared imap mailboxes. Currently we have a number of shared mailboxes with only certain users gaining access to such mailboxes.
I'm wondering is there a way to implement such mailboxes in Zimbra?
Thanks in advance,

CGEM - Longer Counterweight bar or extra weight?
Posted 27 February 2011 - 04:33 PM
I currently have 37 lbs on top along with the 17 lbs counterweight under it. To be equal on top and bottom, I would need exactly 37 lbs at equal distance? I believe that would be about 9" from the polar scope?
I have the following atop the CGEM, again POOR Thing!
17 lbs - 17lb counterweight (Under it)
_2 lbs - ADM upgrade pack DUAL-CGEM-SAD and knobs
21 lbs - Orion 8" Astrograph with Orion rings
_1 lbs - ADM Guide Scope rings 120mm with LDX bar
_7 lbs - Orion 100mm guide scope. (will be exchanged for a 60mm)
_1 lbs - Meade DSI Pro on 100mm guide scope
_1 lbs - TeleVue PLU-1106 Paracorr Coma Corrector - Universal
_1 lbs - Orion StarShoot Pro V2.0 CCD
_2 lbs - Standard cables, USB x2, power to StarShoot, and heater(s)
_1 lbs - Telrad, 16 years old and still kicking
I find with the 100mm on top the the CGEM starts jumping during a mov along the RA. But when I duct taped' 10 lbs of additional weight to the existing 17lb, the CGEM seemed to be humming along contentedly.
I do plan to replace the 100mm guide scope with a small kwikguider or something half the weight. But at 7+1 lbs it's very light
Hints or Tips would be great.

If you're still running on a tripod, my preference would be to get an additional counterweight rather than a longer counterweight shaft.
Shorter shaft = shorter moment arm on your tripod.
Come to think of it.., I'd go this way even if it were on a pier, too.

I have imaged with the same payload balanced with more weight closer to the mount head and with less weight farther away from the mount head. I have never found any notable difference in my mount's ability to guide and track accurately.
So, from my experience, more weight / less length or less weight / longer length is mostly a user preference sort of thing. I haven't seen any real world difference in the performance of the two different means to an end.

I think that extension bar is a better solution because it reduces overall weight of the system thus reduces friction in bearings. As far as "moment of force" is concerned - it is the same for both options because "moment of force" of the scope to be compensated is the same no matter what.

Never thought this would be a problem of longer CW shaft because in my case I would more worry about my foot getting hurt by the extended shaft
The key disadvantage of a longer counter-weight bar is the increased risk of whacking your head against it! That said, when I move around my mount now my head tells me (from experience) to move like a Ninja -- very slowly -- for that reason. More seriously, although whacking a head against a counter-weight is serious, in a small observatory like a SkyPod a longer counter-weight shaft confines you even more, although the business end is the other side.

1) it's much cheaper than the extra long counter weight bar from ADM.
2) For some odd reason the 6 or 10 inch extension looks like it could be a possible a shifting point. Not that I've had experience with this or similar items. I bet it's great and might even be better than adding more weight. It still just makes me twitch.
3) I live 20 minutes from an Orion Telescope store and could pick up the weight for tonight.
Thank you for all the suggestions.
