I started one, but this game is very long and will take some time. I haven't started the Hardcore cup so don't want to "officially" submit the guide yet. This is what I have so far. I obviously need to add pictures and re-read for grammar/spelling errors.
Road Map
* Estimated Trophy difficulty: 4/10
* Offline: 36 ( 23 10 3)
* Online: 5 ( 3 2) - Only 1 trophy requires another human player
* Approximate amount of time to Platinum: 80+
* Minimum number of playthroughs needed: 21
* Number of missable Trophies: None
* Do cheat codes disable Trophies? No Cheats known
* Does difficulty affect Trophies? N/A – No difficulty selection
* Glitched Trophies: None
* Unobtainable Trophies: None
* Extra equipment needed? None
Blood drive is basically a combination of the old Carmegeddon games with some elements of Twisted Metal thrown in. Each Car has different stats as well as a different starting weapon and a unique rage power (Think special move). Before each event, the game allows you to pick a loadout. Preset configurations that allow extra ammo, weapons do more damage, etc. Be sure to pick the loadout that pertains to the situation and also suits your driving style.
The following steps can be done in any order, but the below will provide you with the necessary practice to make it through the easiest possible way. It is possible to stop at certain points through each championship. Although the game tells you it saves after each event, it will only continue at the beginning of the zone if you quit. So, if a championship has 6 zones, make sure to quit as soon as a new map starts, otherwise, you will have to do some races over again.
Step 1: Play through the first 5 Preliminary Cups.
Select a different car for each tournament to get a feel on how they handle and which you like the best. Specific strategies for each car can be found under the corresponding Blood Drive Championship trophies. Playing and completing the 5 preliminary cups will unlock the Blood Drive Championship.
Step 2: Complete the Blood Drive Championship. Then do it again 7 more times.
Pick a car you are comfortable with to ensure you unlock the trophy for completing the Championship. Also, go for the 'C' is for Champion trophy. All 30 events must be won in first place. As stated above, the game will continue at the beginning of each zone, so you do not need to string 30 wins in a row, but will need to do at least 5 in a row. I found this easiest with Superstar. His car has the best balance to be able to win the race/skull events as well as the destruction events. The AI seems to just stop driving when you use his special move, allowing easy kills. One Blood Drive Championship takes around 3.5 hours to complete, not including load times. So this step can be quite a marathon.
Step 3: Multiplayer trophies
Only the "Crash and Burn" trophy requires another human. If you host an online game, it will be populated by AI drivers if no one else is available allowing you to obtain 4 of the 5 online trophies. There is only 4 AI drivers making the 5 win trophies very easy. You will need to use the boosting thread to find another human as I have not seen anyone else online.
Step 4: Challenges
Now that you have some good experience under your belt, it's time to hit the challenges. Find them under single player à Challenges. See the "Legend, Wait for it…ARY!" trophy for details.
Step 5: Complete the Hardcore Cup
Same as Step 2, but for the Hardcore Cup.
Step 6: 'O' is for Overachiever
Play each championship over again with the car you are most comfortable with, ensuring to get first in every single event. If you manage to get first in every event in a championship, that one is already complete and can be skipped. But I doubt it since championships are long and the game can take some getting used to the controls.
Full Tilt
Complete All 5 Preliminary Cups
This trophy requires you to complete the first five championships. They are:
Ante Up Cup – 1 zone – 3 events
Three of a Kind Cup – 2 zones – 6 events
Aces High Cup – 3 zones – 10 events
Wild Card Cup – 4 zones – 14 events
Royal Straight Cup – 4 zones – 14 events
W - is for Winner
Placed 1st in all of the Events within a single Zone
Championships are broken down into zones. First place in each event within a zone and the trophy is yours. Easiest done in the Ante Up Cup as it only has 3 events.
Home is Where the Heart is
Complete the Blood Drive Championship with Kelley
Kelley's car is very quick, but very fragile. One or two hits from basically any weapon or another player hitting you and her car is done.
Kelley starts with the Mine Layer weapon which is basically useless unless you are doing a checkpoint race.
Kelley's special move is the Gravity Well which launches cars close to her high up into the air, causing damage upon landing.
Till Death do us Part
Complete the Blood Drive Championship Reggie
Reggie's vehicle is more in the balanced range. Not providing great speed or armor.
Reggie starts with the Saw Blades which are good against zombies, but not very powerful against over cars.
Reggie's special move is the Surgical Strike which causes a bomb to come down. The special move is especially lame as when you use it, a targeting beam is laid out. It takes about 5 seconds for the bomb to actually strike, allowing other cars plenty of time to avoid the big read beam.
Shred Some Faces
Complete the Blood Drive Championship with Bedlam
Bedlam's vehicle is in the quick but weak category. It is also very hard to drive as hitting anything causes it to bounce around. Sometimes when you flip over, the car does somersaults trying to get right side up and allowing other cars or zombies to kill you.
Bedlam starts with the Minigun which is the best weapon when going for zombie kills. It is rather weak against other cars.
Bedlam's special move is the Gross Polluter. It releases a toxic cloud around the car. It is rather weak and other cars are able to avoid the big green cloud easily.
Living Legend
Complete the Blood Drive Championship with Superstar
Superstar's vehicle is the best in the game. It has decent strength and weapon capabilities. Not only is it very fast, but when in head on collisions, I noticed the other cars normally get launched by Superstars low to the ground clearance avoiding damage.
Superstar starts with the Harpoon Launcher which is decent against both zombies and other cars. When hitting other cars, it has time delay damage. The Harpoon sticks in the car and eventually explodes a few seconds later.
Superstar's special move is the Flash Bling which causes a blinding light when close to him. What should be a lame move is made awesome against the AI as they completely stop driving when used near them. This of course leads to easy kills.
Dark and Mysterious
Complete the Blood Drive Championship with Nazar
Nazar's vehicle is technically in the balanced category, but I find it far too weak to be effective.
Nazar starts with the Drunk Missiles which are great against both zombies and other vehicles. Drunk Missiles launch in the air and then slop downwards, so you will need some room between you and other cars to be able to hit them.
Nazar's special move is the Damage Frenzy which greatly increase weapon damage and ramming ability.

Ode to Mother Russia
Complete the Blood Drive Championship with Natalya
Natalyas car is in the big, strong but super slow category.
Natalya starts with the Rail Gun which does great damage against other cars. It is rather ineffective against zombies as the beam is too narrow and the reload time is high.
Natalyas special move is the Stealth Cloak which turns her car almost invisible. It is not very effective against the AI as you can still be seen on the mini-map and hit as the outline shimmers.
Into the Sunset
Complete the Blood Drive Championship with Jackson
Jacksons car is the complete middle of the road.
Jackson starts with the Rocket Launcher which is super effective against other cars. It can be used well against zombies if they are grouped as the rocket does some splash damage.
Jacksons special move is the Shockwave which creates, you guessed it, a 360 Shockwave around his car. Damage is not very high, but it also has no warning time announcing you are going to use it.
Hit 'em in the Numbers
Complete the Blood Drive Championship with Brock
Brocks car is in the slow and durable category.
Brock stars with the Grenade Launcher which is effective against both zombies and other cars.
Brocks special move is the Juggernaut which greatly increases ramming damage.
Legend, wait for it...ARY!
Complete All Challenges
Find the Challenges under Single PlayeràChallenges. For the trophy to unlock, you must not only complete the challenge, but also the special requirement listed. Use whichever car is you are most effective with for each Challenge.
Roadkill: Endurance Survive 3 minutes Every 100 kills extends timer by 10 seconds
Roadkill: Scoreboad Complete in under 2 minutes Kill 500 Zombies
Demoliton: Endurance Survive for 5 minutes Each car wrecked extends timer by 20 seconds
Demoliton:Scoreboad Complete in 5 minutes Wreck 10 cars
Brock is the best choice due to having a high durability factor and his special move making quick work of other cars.
Checkpoint Challenge Hit 50 checkpoints complete under 4 minutes
Kelley makes short work of this challenge. Probably the easiest of the 6.
Massacre Madness Hit 1000 kills Complete under 5 minutes
I used Bedlam for this challenge, due to starting with the minigun.
Zombie Harvest
Rack up over 50 kills in a single Killing Spree
See Fear the Reaper for information.
Flesh Sack
Hit a Shambler while it's in mid-air
Probably the first trophy you will unlock. It popped for me after hitting my first zombie and he was on the ground, so Im thinking it unlocks if you hit a zombie and it gets tossed into the air.
Death by Goldberg Machine
Crush 5 or more Zombies with a single Prop
When in the zone, look for a bus. Get behind the bus and push it in front of you when driving. Should easily be able to kill 5 zombies with it.
Roadkill Cafe
Earn Bonus Zombie Points in every Event in a single Cup
During events, you will often see Bonus Zombie appear over a zombies head. Run over 3 Bonus Zombies in a single event for a Bonus point in the standings. Only 1 Bonus Zombie appears at a time. Do the first cup, as it only has 3 events. Ignore the objective and just drive around looking for Bonus Zombies. Once the championship ends, the trophy will pop.
Driving Miss Zombie
Trigger a Jump Camera with a Leaper on your Car
Getting some air off a jump, triggers the jump camera, basically a slow-mo view from in front of your car. Leapers are the things that jump on the top of your car and punch it for damage. They also require you to hit a wall or other object to shake them loose. The random zombie that grabs hold of your bumper and hangs on will not work for this trophy. Once you have a leaper on your car, it happens constantly, find a jump and hit the gas.
Crash and Burn
Multiplayer: Kill another human player while you are both in mid-air
You will need to use the boosting thread to find a partner for this as multiplayer online is dead. There are two methods:
1. Get one player down to red health. Have them line up behind a jump and follow them, shooting and killing them while you are both in the air after going off the jump.
2. One player picks Superstar and the person going for the trophy picks Brock. Have Brock at the top of an incline. When Superstar drives up the incline, have Brock use his special move and turbo. If hit, Superstar will die in one hit. Took a few tries, but this is what I used with my boosting partner.

Multiplayer: Complete one entire event without being wrecked
Start a King of the Skull match and a fast car. Drive away from the skull and avoid the AI. The only thing you need to worry about are the big behemoth zombies that kill you in one punch. Avoid those and pick up repair kits constantly.
Multiplayer: Compete in 10 online Events
Simply compete in 10 events. Dont need to win them.
The Spice of Life
Wreck each Driver at least once during a single Event
Pick a car that is good at wrecking other cars, such as Brock, and target each car. Easily gotten in destruction events where you need to kill the most cars. Pile-ups occur frequently as the AI goes after each other.
Wreck your Rival 5 times in a single Event
Same as the above, but only focus on the rival for your event. Rival in Red will be displayed next to their name making it easy to find them on the map.
Donut King
Completed an uninterrupted Donut for 10 seconds
Select Kelley. Hold down the hand brake, gas, and either left or right. Kelley will start doing a Donut. I hit quite a few zombies while doing this, so assuming that uninterrupted means not to get hit by another driver.
He's a Wreckin' Machine!
Wreck 2 Vehicles during one single Juggernaut or Damage Frenzy Rage
You will need to use either Brock or Nazar to unlock this trophy. Easiest way to do this is in destruction events as cars pile up trying to wreck each other.
Blind Leading the Blinded
Wreck 2 Vehicles during a single Flashbling or Cloak Rage
You will need to use Superstar or Natalya for this trophy. I found it easiest with Superstar as the AI stops driving when you activate his special move.
How Nature says Don't Touch
Wreck 2 Vehicles with a single Shockwave or Gross Polluter Rage
You will need to Jackson or Bedlam for this trophy. I found it easier with Bedlam as his power lasts longer. Need to get lucky as 2 vehicles need to be in close proximity to you and also low on health.
From on High
Wreck 2 Vehicles with a single Surgical Strike or Gravity Well Rage
You will need to use Reggie or Kelley. I found it easier to use Kelley as Reggies special move has a long lead time. Need to get lucky as 2 vehicles need to be in close proximity to you and also low on health.
Complete the Blood Drive Championship
You will unlock the Blood Drive Championship after completing the 5 preliminary championships. The Blood Drive championship consists of 6 zones and 30 events.
'C' Is for Champion
Place first in all Events in the Blood Drive Championship
All 30 events must be won in first place. As stated above, the game will continue at the beginning of each zone, so you do not need to string 30 wins in a row, but will need to do at least 5 in a row. I found this easiest with Superstar. His car has the best balance to be able to win the race/skull events as well as the destruction events. The AI seems to just stop driving when you use his special move, allowing easy kills.
Hardcore Cup Strip Teased
Complete the Hardcore Cup with Kelley
See Home is where the Heart is for strategies.
Hardcore Cup Flatlined
Complete the Hardcore Cup with Reggie
See Till death do us part for strategies.
Hardcore Cup Slammed
Complete the Hardcore Cup with Bedlam
See Shred some faces for strategies.
Hardcore Cup Suplexed
Complete the Hardcore Cup with Superstar

Hardcore Cup Conquered

Hardcore Cup Stomped
Complete the Hardcore Cup with Jackson
See Into the Sunset for strategies.
Hardcore Cup Sacked
Complete the Hardcore Cup with Brock
See Hit em in the Numbers for strategies.
Fear the Reaper
Rack up over 100 kills in a single Killing Spree
A Killing Spree begins when you kill 5 zombies in quick succession. After each 25 kills, the timer is extended. I find it easiest to rack up kills with the Minigun. Find a minigun pickup, and circle around it killing zombies. Once it respawns, pick it up for an ammo refill. Rinse and repeat till you have over 100 kills.
Hail to the King Baby
Multiplayer: Come in first in 5 King of the Skull Events
Pick a fast car. Playing against the AI makes this very easy.
Multiplayer: Come in first in 5 Checkpoint Race Eventsg99
Pick a fast car. Playing against the AI makes this very easy.
Death Rider's Legacy
Secret Trophies
Complete the Hardcore Cup with all Drivers
As the trophy says, Complete the Hardcore Cup with all Drivers.
'O' is for Overachiever
Place first in every Event in Tournament Mode
Play each championship over again with the car you are most comfortable with, ensuring to get first in every single event. If you manage to get first in every event in a championship, that one is already complete and can be skipped. But I doubt it since championships are long and the game can take some getting used to the controls.

The below should read 2 hours, not 3.5. Not sure what I was thinking when I did the original math. Still a long haul though.

we currently receive all our email from a remote email server through outlook.
i set up a linux server, succesfully setting up split-dns, and getting Zimbra installed - i realize that i may have misnamed linux/zimbra installtation box as "zim.com". To set up an account, i add an account from the administrative panel. then i log in as that user and add an external account - to an external pop address. i set up domain masquarading so the reply address is not firstname.lastname@example.com, but email@example.com instead.
Is there an easier way of dealing with this?
id like to be able to set up an account and have it use the external pop address from the get go. how is this done?

In an effort to escape her murky past and build a better future, Olive (Milla Jovovich), a nomadic con-artist and her 10 year old son, Bobby, find themselves living in Oklahoma. Olive enrols Bobby in school, makes him do his homework and tries her hardest to be a good mother and with the help of an old friend, Walt (Rory Cochrane), Olive "provides" for Bobby in the only way she knows how.
But despite her efforts (or perhaps because of them), Bobby displays troubling behaviour both at his school and in their conservative neighbourhood. Things take a turn for the worse when Bobby has a run-in with local businessman Kent (Bill Pullman) and Olive's criminal past finally catches up with her, forcing her to make the toughest decision of all.

text: Really interesting idea behind this map! I'd suggest adding some more variation in distance between landmasses and also consider having a landmass that is maybe 4 or 5 times bigger than anything you currently have just for size variation. You have already seemingly hit the poles so I'd suggest pulling the world apart a bit to allow for some larger oceans and provide more room for new landmasses. That is if your role players don't mind you fiddling with the distance between things.

2 of 2 people found the following review helpfulSeptember 11, 2009Reviewer: Tiffaney in ColoradoGreat taste. I recommend dividing the package into several servings for pudding as using the whole package at once results in a large quantity (which is great for a pie but not so great for a small bowl of pudding).
October 12, 2015Reviewer: A customer in United Kingdom/Great BritainLovely warned in the microwave for 30 seconds and served with a little ice cream, walnuts or a crumbled biscuit!
October 12, 2013Reviewer: Mary in CaliforniaLast fall I was making pumpkin latte shakes with this.... starbucks via pack mixed in a bit of water, 1 serving of this product, with either unsweetened vanilla soy milk, calorie countdown milk, or low carb milk powder and a splash of HWC.
So delish!
April 12, 2013Reviewer: Christiana in FloridaMerry Thanksgiving to me!!! Please pass the pumpkin pudding... you can keep that figgy stuff :) delicious
August 07, 2011Reviewer: Tammy in North CarolinaSo easy to make. I used 1 cup of chopped pecans taken from the freezer and mixed with melted butter to make a crust.. Very good!
January 09, 2011Reviewer: Carolyn in CaliforniaThis pie filling is totally delicious, easy to make and you get the real taste of pumpkin. I bought my first one's special for the Holidays now that I have found this one I'm back to get more, we used it as a pie and you can use a graham cracker crust or a regular pie crust either way it is so tasty, yummy.

I have a cheeky request -= can we please have some more pictures to use as profile pictures and smiles
Also can the smiles not jump around because I keep losing them
We just got back from the north woods and I'm going to be doing some work on my smily herd over the next week. Just give me time to get them into the proper corrals so they can stay in one place and then I'm going to ask for some volunters to to out on safari to gather some new ones
Another smilie request, please? Pretty please?
A "woohoo" smilie--with that name between colons, if possible. I type the smilie names rather than click on them. Crazy, I know!
I buried the same request in another post--I think it was BevW's about becoming a CM at TDS.
Let me check with Keith about renaming some of them to make them easier to remember
MP hun, I have no idea what on earth what kinds of smilies you could want :wink:
I want christmassy ones please and halloweeny ones and wintery ones and and and
Disney information? Try our online guidebook at http://wdisneysecrets.com
Get your own Disney Countdown at http://toys.wdisneysecrets.com
And yes it's annoying when they jump around. That's on the list...
I love all of them
But would definitely love for them to stay put.

Amid crisis over Israel's plan to build in east Jerusalem, defense minister says ties with US 'vital to our security'; Peres tries to ease tension
Attila Somfalvi
Published: 03.14.10, 18:57 / Israel News
Attila Somfalvi
"The incident during (Joe) Biden's visit was not intentional, but was nonetheless unnecessary and damaging," Defense Minister Ehud Barak said
Sunday in reference to the crisis between the US and Israel over the plan to build 1,600 housing units in east Jerusalem's Ramat Shlomo neighborhood, which was announced
while the American vice president was in Israel to advance the so-called "proximity talks" with the Palestinians.
Industry, Trade and Labor Minister Binyamin Ben-Eliezer told the Labor meeting that "the more Bibi (Netanyahu) is reprimanded, the more the people turn Right."
"There is no substitute for the Labor party, it's the best home. Our party is strong and not only will it regain power, but it will have its say," according to the minister.
Addressing the uproar over Israel's announcement, President Shimon Peres told a Swiss television station Sunday that Israel was determined to advance serious negotiations with the Palestinians that will lead to the establishment of an independent Palestinian state in accordance with the "two states for two peoples" paradigm.
Peres spoke with a number of Israeli and American officials over the weekend in an attempt to calm the situation.

Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) -
2012 SEASON IN REVIEW: Few teams had as an impressive a finish to the 2012
season as the Chippewas. Following a 3-9 record in 2011, coach Dan Enos had a
tough time getting his team going which made it look like another losing
campaign was on the way. However, CMU managed to climb back from a poor start
and book a trip to the Little Caesars Bowl, with strong play down the stretch.
CMU began its season on a positive note as it downed Southeast Missouri State,
38-27, in its opener at Kelly/Shorts Stadium. CMU suffered a lopsided, 41-7
loss to Michigan State but followed the setback with a surprising, 32-31
victory at Iowa. The Chippewas had a difficult time from there, winning only
one of their next six contests. They lost by double-digit margins to Northern
Illinois (55-24), Toledo (50-35), Navy (31-13), Ball State (35-14) and Western
Michigan (42-31) with the only win coming during the stretch coming over Akron
(35-14), which failed to win a MAC game.
Enos motivated his 3-6 squad to win four of its final five regular season
games, including decisions at Eastern Michigan (34-31), Miami-Ohio (30-16) and
Massachusetts (42-21). CMU kept its momentum through the postseason and
defeated Western Kentucky, 24-21, in the bowl game.
Enos, who played quarterback for Michigan State, began his assistant coaching
career in 1991 and worked for programs like Western Michigan, Cincinnati and
his alma mater before CMU gave him his first chance to be a head coach. He is
13-24 in his career after three full seasons.
OFFENSE: CMU's offense gained some steam down the stretch of the 2012 campaign
as tailback Zurlon Tipton emerged as a superstar. Tipton made a strong
impression with 180 yards on 17 carries in the season opener, but he was held
under the century mark in the five following games. He was a big part of the
Chippewas' strong finish as he gained an average of 142.1 ypg in the team's
final seven contests. Tipton managed to rush into the end zone 19 times on the
season and he thinks he can reach that number once again despite the
graduation of tackle Eric Fisher, who was selected first in the NFL Draft.
"Obviously you want to get better every year," said Tipton. "Collectively, we
want this. We want to be one of the top rushing teams in the nation. We're
going to go out and get the job. Now that we have young quarterbacks, I feel
like the run game has to be there."
Although CMU lost an elite blocker in Fisher, there are a handful of
experienced returners up front. Senior tackle Jake Olson will be a big help.
Olson was limited to just two games in 2012 due to injury. Sophomore center
Nick Beamish has great size (6-3, 305) and a solid grasp on the fundamentals
of the game.
Junior wideout Titus Davis was one of the top receivers in the MAC as a
sophomore, racking up 860 yards and eight TDs on 43 receptions. Andrew Flory
showed his big-play ability with 340 yards and four TDs on just 17 catches as
a sophomore. Courtney Williams and tight end Connor Odykirk will both see a
fair amount of passes come their way as well.
The new starting quarterback has yet to be decided in fall camp. Junior signal
caller Cody Kater is the front runner to take the snaps, but he has attempted
only four passes so far in his career. Sophomore Alex Niznak and redshirt
freshman Cooper Rush are both being considered as Ryan Radcliff's replacement.
DEFENSE: CMU was not one of the strongest defensive squads in the FBS with
allowed averages of 433.3 yards and 32.4 points per game in 2012. The
Chippewas allowed five opponents in a row to surpass the 400-yard mark in
total offense before holding both UMass (317) and WKU (327) well below that
number in their final two appearances.
The secondary lost a superstar in All-MAC safety Jahleel Addae to graduation.
Two-year starter Avery Cunningham will do his best to fill in as the new
defensive leader.
"I think the biggest thing about Avery is that he loves to compete," said
defensive coordinator Joe Tumpkin. "In everything he goes about doing, each
and every day, it is always about competing. He likes to do well, he likes to
have success in that competition, he likes to win. When you challenge him he
really takes that challenge to heart and tries to get better. We challenge him
to be a leader. We challenge him to be better on his one-on-one and man-to-man
coverage. We challenge him to be more physical. Whatever challenge we give to
him, he has accepted and embraced it and has done well with it."
Cunningham finished fourth on the team with 88 total stops and also added two
interceptions, six TFL and two sacks. Junior safety Jarret Chapman registered
51 total stops and broke up six passes. Junior corner Jason Wilson is also a
proven defensive back that should help the Chippewas rise from their ninth-
place ranking in the MAC against the pass.
The linebacking unit is a strong point on the defense. Justin Cherocci and
Shamari Benton are back after ranking first and second, respectively, on the
squad in tackles a season ago.
Redshirt freshman Kelby Latta and senior Alex Smith are expected to give CMU
some pop from the defensive end position. The team had trouble pressuring the
QB and wrapping up ball carriers in the backfield last season. After both
started in 2012 as underclassmen, nose tackles Jabari Dean (6-2, 288) and
Leterrius Watson (6-5, 300) will play key roles in the rush defense.
SPECIAL TEAMS: Senior Richie Hogans was reliable on fourth downs last season
as he finished fourth in the league with 40.8 yards per punt. The place
kicking job opened up upon the graduation of David Harman. Redshirt freshman
Ron Coluzzi was a highly-touted five-star prospect coming out of Naperville
High School. He is expected to be the team's place kicker for years to come.
Sophomore running back Saylor Lavallii was primarily a return specialist in
2012. He managed to average 23.1 yards per kick return as a freshman. The
Chippewas are in desperate need of someone who can be more productive after
fielding punts. The team averaged only 2.6 yards per punt return in 2012.
OUTLOOK: CMU has a lot of questions that need to be answered before it will be
claiming its first league title since 2009. There are plenty of experienced
returning players on both side of the ball for Enos to work with, but
replacing Addae and Fisher will be an impossible task. The Chippewas do not
have an easy non-conference slate in 2013 which could keep them from becoming
bowl eligible if they struggle in league action.
"We are very excited," said Enos. "The way we finished last year gave us a lot
of positive momentum going into the offseason."
Enos's squad begins its year against Michigan in The Big House. It has a more
manageable opponent the following week as it hosts New Hampshire of the FCS at
Kelly/Shorts Stadium, but travels to Las Vegas to tangle with UNLV the
following week. The Chippewas then begin their MAC season at home versus
Toledo and conclude their series of non-conference games their next time out
at NC State. CMU faces three teams that played in the postseason in its next
four games with Miami-Ohio, Ohio, Northern Illinois and Ball State on the
docket. After facing WMU on the road, it closes out the season at home versus
UMass and EMU.
The Chippewas are better defensively than last season and have a strong cast
of characters to employ in the rushing attack. Whichever QB wins the job will
have to be efficient enough to keep opposing defenses honest or Tipton will be
bottled up consistently.

June 1, 2016
Meridian, Miss. There was a special program on Thursday to help out local combat veterans.
The Veterans Administration Center in Jackson had its mobile unit in Meridian at the Meridian Veterans Services Office as part of its "VA to Vets" program. The purpose of the program is to connect combat veterans with the VA and help them understand the services their offer as they try to readjust to life after combat. VA officials say they answered a lot of questions.
"Mostly we're getting questions about a lot of people are not aware of the vet center, so mostly questions are about what does the mobile unit do and what can we provide for them," Terry Winn says.
Officials from the mobile unit left information with the local Veterans Service Office for people who were not able to make it out on Thursday.

UK Property Law
Get UK Property Law Questions Answered by Experts
Thanks for question.
I'm afraid that you cannot end the term before the the (renewed) term has expired. It is, for all intents and purposes, exactly the same as the previous tenancy. You can only leave before the fixed term expires if the property is unfit for human habitation (ie. a repudiatory breach to provide accommodation to live in), if there is a break clause permitting early terminate or if the landlord agrees to surrender the tenancy.
If you carry on occupying the property after the term of the original tenancy without executing a replacement tenancy then the tenancy will become a statutory periodic tenancy which means that it continues on the same terms from one rent period to the next (so monthly if you pay your rent monthly). Under a SPT you are required to serve once months notice (if rent paid monthly) to terminate and the notice must expire at the end of a full rent period.

Probably the best move Suzuki can make. Bautista most likely will flee the team to move to Tech-3 Yamaha to replace Old man Edwards or snatch Toni Elias' ride from under him once Elias reminds everyone why he got forced to ride in Moto2 as the season unfolds. John Hopper is the safe bet as he knows the Slowzuki pretty well and Denning won't have to work too hard to find a mid-pack rider who can perform above average in the class .

Home : Brands : Sothys : Sothys Exfoliators :
Sometimes, nature can use a helping hand. When addressing skin care concerns, Sothys Exfoliators Products can provide a special boost to shedding unwanted dead skin cells. The life cycle of a skin cell is only 30 days, including the time that it grows, migrates to the skin surface and takes its place as part of the visible complexion. >
As skin cells age, they become saturated with a fiber-like protein called keratin which helps protect the inner layers of the skin from infection, damage and moisture loss. The problem comes when the cell finally dies and simply does not fall off. This not only contributes to a dull complexion, but these cells can also clog pores and cause blemishes or even be the source of bacterial infection. Sothys Exfoliators Products are specially formulated to help keep skin free of these extraneous cells, so the complexion looks clean, smooth and glowing. The technique should be gentle, to avoid damaging the skin or removing the natural oils that keep skin moisturized. Using carefully formulated ingredients, Sothys Exfoliators Products perform this task with a soft touch.
To add one or more items to your bag, check the box to the left of each desired
item and then click the "Add to Bag" button at the top or bottom of the page. Items
are listed in SKU number order.
Keeping the complexion smooth and radiant, Sothys Exfoliators Products gently remove useless, dead skin cells from the outer layer of skin. These formulas include proven ingredients which perform this task without affecting the protective, moisturizing layer of natural oils that are needed to keep the skin healthy and supple.
Softening skin with the moisturizing benefits of high-lipid oats, Sothys Gommage Exfoliant refines the skin texture as it eliminates dead surface skin cells. The granule-free formula avoids any harsh scrubbing action, which can damage the protective layer of keratin saturated cells. It is this layer that guards the skin against infection and helps the inner tissues retain the moisture necessary for a smooth, supple condition. The formula also includes xanthan gum and natural beeswax to help condition the skin.
A suite of botanical extracts in Sothys Thalassothys Soft Peeling provides three actions to improve skin condition: exfoliation, cleansing and softening. Using the technique of thalassotherapy, or the "sea treatment" developed in Europe centuries ago, this formula uses marine algae extract from Chlorella vulgaris as the base ingredient. This provides trace minerals, vitamins and nourishing compounds to the skin, supported by wheat amino acids. The moisturizing benefits of chamomile flower extract, sweet almond oil and luxurious shea butter (derived from the ripe nuts of the African karite tree) help to smooth out rough areas of skin and providing tissues with the hydration they crave. Also included is caprylic/capric triglyceride, derived from coconut, which gently promotes exfoliation to encourage a healthy turnover of skin cells.

WHEELING - From puberty to post-menopause, women face challenges for sexual wellness.
As girls mature and they experience physical changes, such as menstruation, it is important to arm them with proper information toward good sexual health.
Dr. George Jirak, gynecologist with Ohio Valley Medical Center, agrees that a woman's sexual health begins well before she is sexually active.
"Sexual health relates to all the anatomic and physiologic changes that occur to eventually result in reproductive capability. Prior to menstruation, the young girl goes through progressive changes involving multiple areas of her body including fat distribution, progressive breast development, and distribution of female hair growth," Jirak explained.
"This culminates in the beginning of menses or menarche. This is influenced by multiple hormones the primary being estrogen. Problems with nutrition and genetic disorders can effect this normal progression to influence sexual health in a negative way."
A healthy diet as a child can lead to a healthier woman during her child-bearing years. Today's gynecologists also stress the importance of having young girls and boys vaccinated against the Human Papilloma viruses.
"This is very important. It has been found that cancer of the cervix and genital warts are caused by a number of 'high risk' viral types within the grouping of Human Papilloma viruses. The virus has been found to be present in up to 60 percent of men and women in their 20s," Jirak noted. "The virus is sexually transmitted so vaccination of girls and boys prior to sexual activity should result in a reduction of these infections and therefore reduce the number of cervical cancer cases."
As women mature and become sexually active, sexually-transmitted diseases remain a threat even late into women's lives.
"With sexual activity, sexually-transmitted diseases can occur at any age and older women are not exempt. This is primarily an issue for women who may have more than one sexual partner, partner has more sexual partners, or they had recently changed partners. Use of condoms helps with protecting against sexually transmitted diseases but may not prevent against the HPV virus," Jirak added.

Poisson hypothesis for mean-field models of generalised Jackson networks with countable set of nodes
Seminar Room 1, Newton Institute
AbstractIn some of our previous papers we considered closed queueing "mean-field" systems. The mean-field condition for such a system means the evolution invariance under the action of corresponding permutation group. For example, for closed networks on complete graph with M servers this condition means that after being served, the customer is allowed to go for his next service to any of the M servers (queues) with uniform probability 1/M. In addition, the service time distribution is the same for all customers in all nodes. Now we consider countable symmetric generalised Jackson networks in thermodynamic limit. We will show that under general conditions of not being overloaded such systems always satsify the Poisson hypothesis (PH). We will relax the mean-field symmetry of our system. Namely, we will allow different probabilities to go to different classes of servers, as well as different service time distributions, depending on these classes. The rough idea why PH always holds for our open systems is the following: as we know, the main reason for the possible violation of PH is that the memory about the initial state of the system is preserved to some degree. Since however every customer of our open system spends in it only a finite time, the memory of the initial state falls away as the number of customers initially present in the system goes to zero with time. This talk is based on the joint work with S Shlosman.

Evan Gordon, a starter for 25 games as a junior last season, is leaving the Arizona State basketball program.
Coach Herb Sendek announced Gordon's unexpected decision during a teleconference with fans Wednesday night. The Sun Devils were planning on Gordon being a key contributor next season.
"He notified us (Wednesday) that he was going to hope to take advantage of a rule that would allow him to play immediately after graduating,'' Sendek said on the teleconference. "He's scheduled to graduate here this week at ASU and for family reasons he wants to be close to home his final year. We certainly wish Evan the best."
Last year the 6-foot-1 Gordon was ASU's third-leading scorer behind point guard Jahii Carson and forward Carrick Felix. He averaged 10.1 points in 32 minutes, shooting 34.7 percent from 3-point range. His biggest moment came Feb. 16 at Colorado, where he hit the winning shot in overtime. Gordon also was a strong ball handler and solid perimeter defender.
Gordon, an Indianapolis native, graduates this week with a degree in interdisciplinary studies, so it's possible he could play at another school next season. But since he already has transferred once - Gordon transferred to ASU from Liberty in 2011 - he may require NCAA approval. Gordon did not immediately respond to a text message Wednesday night. His father - Eric Gordon, Sr., - told The Indianapolis Star that Gordon would look to transfer to a school within 200 miles of Indianapolis. Peegs.com - a Rivals recruiting site - reported that Gordon would transfer to Indiana.
ASU may need help in the backcourt. In addition to Gordon, the Sun Devils also lost senior and bench contributor Chris Colvin. Bo Barnes (0.5 points per game) returns for his junior season. The Sun Devils also bring in freshmen Chance Murray from Los Angeles and Egor Koulechov from South Florida. They also welcome back former Tempe Corona del Sol standout Calaen Robinson, who wasn't with the team last season because of an off-court matter.
The Sun Devils have lost 13 scholarship players since 2008 due to transfer or other reasons. They have not made the NCAA Tournament over the last four seasons.

We have been using Pipes for a year no problems to create RSS feeds. Just last week we began to get these 999 errors when accessing the RSS. It does not happen every time, and it only happens with our wunderground.com data. For example:

Dear Changing World:
The decision for your organization to move toward more virtual work should be an easy one since there is clear, compelling and scientific evidence about the myriad benefits of what used to be called telecommuting.
When organizations look to the future, the most innovative and successful leaders realize the potential that virtual workforces have to change the face of business. Increasingly, leadership and organizations are viewing work as something you do, rather than somewhere you go. As organizations expand across the nation and the globe, remote labor forces are becoming vital to business success. Currently, 82 percent of Fortune magazine's "100 Best Companies to Work For" have virtual work policies. That number is expected to rise as time and technology advance.
In addition, fully 81 percent of remote workers say they were more productive at home than in a traditional workplace environment. Furthermore, a recent Gallup workplace study found that virtual workers put in four more hours per work week than on-site employees — while also having higher engagement (32 percent to 28 percent).
Other valuable benefits of work-from-home/remote policies, for both employer and employee include:
- Cost savings through lowering the need for, and cost of, real estate and other related overhead.
- Higher customer satisfaction due to better coverage across different time zones.
- Eliminates geographic restrictions, thus widening your pool of potential talent.
- Lower absenteeism.
- Eliminates stressful commuting (stress is one of the primary reason for resignation).
- Cost savings for employees (gas, train/bus fare, parking, etc.).
- Better work-life balance and workplace flexibility, both of which are highly prized by millennials, who will eclipse baby boomers in the workforce by 2015
Harvard Business Review recently reported that by 2015, fully 40 percent of the world's workforce will be remote. The trend toward virtual work is, in fact, gaining such a hold in the workplace that colleges and universities are beginning to introduce programs dedicated solely to best practices for virtual work. To remain up to par in this increasingly distanced world, managers must consider the increasing demand and necessity for a virtual workforce.
- So how do you get started? Here are some useful tips:
- Determine what job positions internally are prime candidates for allowing the employee to work remotely.
- Start slowly and try to ensure consistency in terms of the share of work performed remotely versus "at corporate."
- Establish a formal virtual work or working from home policy, invite input on the policy, and communicate it clearly, using examples and stating exceptions (if any).
- Hire the right people to be in these remote positions. Look for these five traits while interviewing:Are the people self-starters? Have they worked remotely in the past and where is the evidence that they succeeded? Are they self-motivated? Are they self-disciplined? Are they skilled and highly adaptive communicators?
- Track and quantify as many outcomes and results as possible such that you can prove your organization is the recipient of the many benefits and financial dividends that come with the world of virtual work.

'Then He turned to the host. 'The next time you put on a dinner, don't just invite your friends and family and rich neighbours, the kind of people who will return the favour. Invite some people who never get invited out, the misfits from the wrong side of the tracks. You'll be - and experience - a blessing. They won't be able to return the favour, but the favour will be returned - oh, how it will be returned! - at the resurrection of God's people.'"Luke 14:12-14 (The Message).
Today my contribution is in the form of a testimony. Several years ago, the leadership of my church caught this vision and decided to do exactly what Jesus said, invite those who were 'from the other side of the tracks'. The combined churches of our town run a soup kitchen, so we gave formal invitations to those who came regularly for their soup and bread.
The church members 'came to the party' with great enthusiasm. Donations of food poured in - a beast from a farmer and sacks of vegetables were turned into a sumptuous banquet for the down-and-outs. There were ice creams for everyone, a warm 'beanie' hat and fruit to take 'home' after the party (and who knows where 'home' was?). The young people made the church hall into a festive dining room with balloons and streamers, and then, on the appointed day, the people came streaming in, ragged, dirty and smelly but very excited and orderly.
And in with them came the awesome sense of God's presence in such power that some of us were weeping and others trembling as the people filed in. It was almost as though Jesus Himself had come to grace the party. And He had, for did He not say, 'If you have done it to the least of these, my brothers, you've done it to me'?
The people were seated in a circle and served as though they were royalty. Never had they received such a welcome and been treated with such honour. It was all about them and we, the ones who were so used to having the good things and being served, tasted the joy of turning the tables for an afternoon, serving without any anticipation of a return invitation.
The food disappeared at lightning speed - some enjoyed up to three and four helpings of delicious stew cooked over an open fire. Adults and children ate until they were ready to burst. Together with their meal came a simple gospel message told by a man whom God had rescued from the gutter and given another chance at life.
What a memorable day! At the end of it we were bone-weary, deliciously happy and filled with a deep sense of God's pleasure. He was there and we felt it. We were smitten with a vision and experience which has never left us. Since that first banquet, which we dubbed our 'kingdom extravaganza', our church has held several more banquets and a party for the children of AIDS-infected and affected families.
'Misfits from the other side of the tracks' may be our opinion of the unfortunate ones who were not born with a silver spoon in their mouths, but to Jesus they are His brothers. To Mother Teresa who served the homeless and dying from the streets of Calcutta, they were 'the face of Jesus in disturbing disguise.'
Isn't it time the church of the Lord Jesus climbed down off her high horse and put on the apron of servanthood and, like her Master, knelt down and washed feet instead of engaging in useless rituals which have nothing to do with the reason why Jesus came? He said, 'Follow me', that's all. We made up the rest.

Actress Nandana Sen, who did some sizzling scenes with Randeep Hooda for "Rang Rasiya", had also kissed debutant Anubhav Anand for their forthcoming film "Perfect Mismatch", but the scenes have been edited out.
The two had shot for three kissing scenes which were later removed from the final cut of the movie that is essentially a family entertainer, said a press release.
"Nandana and I did share few kissing scenes in the movie which have eventually been edited. We wanted 'Perfect Mismatch' to be a full fledged family entertainer so we decided not to keep the kissing scenes in the final cut," said Anand.
The movie, which also stars Anupam Kher and Boman Irani, is a Hindi-cum-English laugh riot which revolves around inter-caste marriage. The film releases July 24.

This was posted on ESPN. Sad news about a former recruit.
Heart problem ends career of Vols F Negedu - CBK News - FOX Sports on MSN
Sounds like a kid who will still be a success in life.
I wish him all the luck in the world.
He seemed like a bright young man when we were recruiting him.
Well, in this case we avoided a kick to the groin. That stands for something, right?
Disappointing for the kid.
Did the sports gods forget to tell him he chose not to go to ISU. This is something that would have happened to us. Get a 5 star kid and then he has to quit do to heart problems.
Hopefully Negadu is o.k. He seemed like a good kid.
Nobody but HB knows for sure. You pretty much know nothing....like Knownothing would like to say.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. That stuff seems to happen only to us. Hope the kid gets well and hits the books hard.
This happens to every program. BC's best defensive player got diagnosed with cancer and isn't playing this year. That there is ISU material.

Anybody else doing this?
I was tired of cleaning the gunk off my track bike I use for road training, so I started doing this on that bike about a year ago. It's been a success-- everything stays MUCH cleaner. $5 bucks of paraffin wax and a $5 thrift store rice cooker look like they will last into the foreseeable future, so it's also a potential money saver.
I just started doing it on my road bike too and it's just as great. Though one weird thing, the road bike chain is much quieter waxed than the track chain waxed.
Anyhow, I'm thinking about just doing this on my race bike too as I can't really see any down side after a year of experimenting.
Anybody else have experience with this?

Users can query for a particular author of a structure or a primary citation
using the SearchFields interface at
In the Citation Author field, enter the two initials and last name of the
target author. An example of an author query would be:
The initials should be separated by "."s without spaces between them or the last
name. If the query is not formed this way, no results will be returned. For authors
with a title included in their name, the format should be:
W.E.Royer Jr.
H.Brumer III
A search can also be performed using the author's last name only, for example:
This will return all authors with the last name "Matthews" that are referenced in the
PDB archive, as listed in the JRNL records or PDB REMARK 1 records in the
structure entries. To remove a particular author from this result list, select the
Refine Your Query option from the pull down menu at the top of the Query Result
Browser page, which will return the SearchFields page. At the top, select the
BUTNOT logic button and enter the author to be removed from the results list in
the Citation Author field. For example:
Multiple authors can be queried for by performing a search for a single author as noted
above, then selecting Refine Your Query from the pull down menu at the top of the
results page, and entering the second author in the Citation Author field (note: the
AND logic button on the SearchFields page must be selected; it is the default).
The Text Search field can also be used to query for part or all of one or more author
names in a single query, such as:
Taylor and Zheng
However, users should be aware that this type of search scans the entire text of each
PDB file and will return entries that include text that literally matches the query, so
some undesired results may occur.

This review is from: SAMSUNG S24B750V-RB High Gloss Black 24" 2ms HDMI Widescreen LED Backlight LCD Monitor 250 cd/m2 1,000:1 Built-in Speakers
Pros: The monitor was perfect for my needs. Speakers built in side support and HD.
Cons: The frame on the upper left hand side was crazy straight through. Spoke with newegg.com support about the frame . They had no more monitors in stock. All they wanted to do was give me and RMA.. I ask fi they had another monitor that might be damaged or dead but the frame was good.. Just wanted to do the RMA. No body wants to think out of the box. All they know is what is in front of them. I know as big and as mony of these monitors or out there. That they should have one were i could have exchanged the frame. All they want was to give me samsungs number.
Other Thoughts: I will call back and see if i can get a partial refund for the damaged frame

- Nita Ambani
- Mukesh Ambani
- Anil Ambani
- Mark Zuckerberg
- Ratan Tata
- Manish Malhotra
- CK Prahalad (Image Source: Outlook India)
- Rakesh Jhunjhunwala
Mallyas had beaten Ambanis in Google's most popular searching category. Mallyas who known for their Glamours & Social Life. Mallyas who also own their own airlines & IPL cricket team named "Royal Challengers Bangalore", where Ambanis stood at the next position to Mallyas. Ambanis too acknowledged for their IPL Team Mumbai Indians & grand bunglow at South Mumbai as Anitilia. Ambanis 27 floors bungalow is more popular in the news recently, who reported about 70 Lacs electricity bill in just one month. Comparatively too expensive in India. Google reports IPL3 season was the reason behind their popularity in the Clicking scale. Nita Ambani topped in the Ambanis list, as younger brother Anil Ambani at 5th Position.
Facebook founder & CEO Mark Zuckerberg was also in the India's most popular searching category due to his noble cause, as he had donated more than half of his wealth to charity run by Gates Foundation. As Philanthropies list, Azim Premji founder of Wipro also among the searching category, but failed to be listed in the Top 10 searches. Ratan Tata, who was in news previously for his retirement & now for 2G Scam, leaked documents. Ratan Tata, the Owner of Tata Group who is known for his automobile innovation in the name of India's cheapest Car "NANO". Tata's name was brought into scam after Corporate lobbyist Niira Radia dragged in the scam by Outlook Magazine. In Celebrities list, Katrina Kaif "THE SHEILAA KI JAWANI" girl topped in the popular category list even bypassing Sachin Tendulkar, the legend of Indian Cricket who made several records throughout the year. A similar trend was shown by Yahoo Search also. Katrina as Sheilaa Ki Jawani has rocked the whole country by her exotic look & dance. The Movie will too pinch her name, as it is suppose to be released on the eve of Christmas celebration. Google You-Tube ranked Sachin's double century as the most watched video. Michael Jackson & IPL 3 videos were the other few video watched most at You tube.
Google India Product Head, Vinay Goel said," We compiled the results as witnessed over the entire year". Some people remained top throughout the year. (Courtesy Economic Times)
Google's competitor Yahoo ranked the Ayodhya verdict as its most searched headline while the most searched gadget on both Yahoo & Google was Apple's i-Phone.

Wife Swap: The Glamazon vs. Colonel Mommy
February 20, 2008 09:31 PM by Jennifer_Brown
When it comes to being a rocker glamazon, former Hooters girl Glori Blankenship is one proud mama! This sexy South Carolina rocker mom loves being her hubby's arm candy and isn't afraid to admit that being beautiful is her most important job, even if she's had to have some augmentation to get that way. Glori's husband Tim, who calls himself "The High Priest of the Church of the Poisoned Mind," is a rocker who likes to party and loves having doting Glori wait on him hand and foot. Their 12-year old son, Justin, lives to play video games and complains that his mom dresses too provocatively.
In tonight's episode of Wife Swap, Glori swaps lives with Maryland mom, retired Army Colonel Jill Phillips, who believes that hard work is the foundation of a good life. Jill runs a petting zoo, is a corporate executive, anda nurse practitioner. To this mom, structure is the underlying force of herteenagedtwin daughters' lives, as they're expected to meet high homework demands and a heavy chore list. Jill's husband John, also a former military man, takes over the lion's share of the housework, supporting his hardworking wife.
For Wife Swap, it's a pretty mild night. Glori and John seem to coexist fairly peacefully. After Glori gets over the shock of having to take off all her makeup, that is. But she finds filling Jill's software company and nurse practitioner shoes "fun," although she could do with a little less poop-scooping at the petting zoo.
Jill, Justin, and Tim, however, are not such a happy little family. Justin finds Jill to be "boring, annoying, and very, very crappy." Jill finds Glori's chores to be…well, pretty much what Justin just said. She also finds Glori's promotional model gig (involving skimpy clothes and jumping around on the side of the road), along with her service to hubby Tim to be "demeaning."
After the first week, the wives get to change the rules. Glori asserts, "Real men allow women to serve them," while over at the Blankenship house, Jill exclaims, "This house needs a commander!"
Jill's first order of business is to get long-haired Tim a nice buzz-cut. But Tim refuses, cussing out the hairdresser and kicking him out of the house. Jill turns her sights to Justin then, getting rid of all of his video games. "You torturous spawn of Satan," Justin growls at her, but she's undeterred. She has Justin join a high school debate program, where he must debate why video games are good for kids. Meanwhile, she sends Tim to a sorority house, bare-chested and in leather, to clean. Then she takes them both to a petting zoo to scoop poop.
At the Phillips house, John tries to get used to being waited on by his new wife. Glori scores points with the girls by hiring some hot cowboy-types to take off their shirts and take over the girls' chores at the petting zoo, and then takes the girls out to a busy street corner tocollect guys' phone numbers, which doesn't please John in the least. "That's what prostitutes do," he says. "That's totally inappropriate." But he barely gets a good rantgoing when daughter Marlena comes in and takes up for Glori,a move thatcompletely impresses Dad. Still, Glori doesn't help matters by taking John to a biker bar and partying down, doing body shots with strange men and embarrassing him once again.
After the second week, the couples reunite and sit down together for a little chat. Right away Jill starts in on Glori, calling her clothing demeaning. John joins in, ratting out the biker-bar-body-shot incident, which angers Tim. He storms out on Glori, calling what she did a "graphic misrepresentation of what goes on between us."
Eventually Tim comes back to the reunion and he sullenly agrees to start doing more around the house to help Glori.
Since the Swap, Tim and Justin help out more at the Blankenship house. Justin reads more and plays video games less, and now has an interest in debate.
The Phillips daughters have a little more freedom and are allowed to go out with their friends on the weekends.

Oh goodness, what a funny episode? I wish they would have showed more of that HOTT, Tall, Dark, Handsome, Up and Coming Covermodel Calisto working on the Maryland farm. What a dream he is. In my eyes, he really stole the show, I am sure we will be seeing more of him in the future. WHAT A LOOKER!!!

|Reprinted from the Fall 2004 issue of
For the first time, precinct captains were held accountable for driving down crime in their jurisdictions. Those who couldn't meet the new performance measures were removed from their commands. While civil libertarians objected to what they saw as abusive tactics, there was no denying CompStat's role in helping reduce New York crime. By 2002, the city's crime rates dropped to levels not seen since the 1960s. Today, variations of CompStat can be found around the country and the world. It is considered by many to be one of the best examples of how performance measurement works in the public sector.
"CompStat has been so successful for performance measurement," said Steve Kelman, professor of public management at Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government. "It has really put some fire under the management practice." According to Kelman, performance measurement is now taught to all master's students at the Kennedy School.
Helping drive CompStat's success is, of course, technology. Databases massage the information collected by police. Geographic information systems track crimes based on time, location and other factors. Modeling tools help police commanders answer "what-if" questions concerning changes in manpower, patrols and other assets.
The story of IT and performance measurement could end there, with CIOs playing an important but secondary role to the police commissioner, labor secretary or social service director who must manage performance in today's outcome-based, value-driven public sector. CIOs, however, are also under the gun to show results.
The reasons are somewhat paradoxical, according to Amy Santenello, senior research analyst at Meta Group. "IT is increasing in importance for the public sector, but technology has disappeared as a priority among policy leaders," she said. "To demonstrate the value of IT, CIOs are using performance measurement to show they can deliver results and improve services."
At the federal level, the President's Management Agenda made performance measurement a priority, according to Thom Rubel, vice president of government strategies at Meta Group. At the state and local level, the fiscal crisis forced CIOs to be more accountable and show results. Despite these pressures, use of performance measurement continues to be spotty in the public-sector IT community, according to Rubel.
Where it is used, the terminology often differs. For example, some CIOs make performance metrics part of their overall strategic plan. For others, it's a requirement for building an enterprise architecture. Still others see it as a tool for making the business case for a new infrastructure, application or service.
But Is It Shareholder Value?
Mention performance measures, and what you often hear is something very specific, tangible or numeric, according to Genie N.L. Stowers, professor of public administration at San Francisco State University. "Number," "percent," "ratio," "incidence," "proportion" or similar words are often used, according to Stowers' report, Measuring the Performance of E-Government.
The private sector primarily uses profit to measure performance along with other nonfinancial measures. By comparison, the public sector has struggled to come up with a viable and meaningful way to measure performance, but Stowers identified many --inputs, outputs, activity measures, efficiency, and productivity measures or outcomes. For CIOs, inputs might mean application development and hardware costs; outputs could be system response time
