We'd never been. And as we were going to be in the area, we thought we'd have a look. Situated a few miles West of Pranburi, I found the dam on Google Earth, and put the co-ordinates into my SatNav. The road where I live is only registered as a dirt track on my SatNav, so I'm always asked if, "I want to avoid unpaved roads," to which I have to say, "No," else the SatNav can't plot a route. This is not normally a problem, but…………….
Everything was going fine. We took a right at the 3rd set of lights through Pranburi, and the road seemed pretty good. However, quick glance at the SatNav and it said 6 miles to go, but those 6 miles would take 38 minutes. Then the inevitable instruction, "TURN RIGHT!!" I was on a dirt road, but it was still quite good, and a lot better than Soi 88.
I continued on the dirt track for about a mile, and the road become gradually worse. Then the instruction, "TURN LEFT!!" Of course, having a woman's voice on my SatNav, I obeyed.
Well, this was a road (in the loosest sense of the word) like none I'd seen in Thailand before. The only thing I had seen similar were the roads used by Challenger tanks while on exercise with them on Salisbury Plain. My truck is big with large wheels, but these weren't tyre tracks, they were more like First World War trenches. With my wife screaming in my ear, I was doing my best to keep an even keel, but the back end of the truck was swaying violently. I looked foe a suitable place, and stopped the truck, as I stopped, the volume in my left ear reduced significantly.
I got out to assess the terrain. It was rough, but I felt that I could continue, However, the little voice in my left ear persuaded me to turn back. This manoeuvre would actually be a lot harder than carrying on (SatNav was telling me 325 Yards to the next road) i.e. carrying on meant I would carry on driving with the terrain. Turning around would mean a 3 point turn against the terrain whilst trying to avoid palm oil trees.
I did the manoeuvre and made my way back to the relative safety of the dirt track. The SatNav re-calculated, and took me straight to a proper road. My son and I had thoroughly enjoyed the little adventure, but my dear wife would not like the experience repeated. The rest of the journey was uneventful.
We arrived below the dam. Standing there, looking up, it seemed quite a way. Then my mind switched to how much water was the other side of this embankment. The grass here was kept very short, and although it looked nice, it was actually quite crispy to walk on.
Now to the business side of things, on top of the dam, and the outstanding views that we were anticipating. As we approached the dam, it was a single track road, and I was worrying that I might not be able to stop for photos. My fears were allayed – as we got to the dam, there was a little car park to the right.
I'd been to Kaeng Krachen Dam a few weeks earlier, and what a contrast this was. Kaeng Krachen was geared up to visitors and boat trips. We were the only ones at Pranburi Dam, and the lake was beautifully still with no activity apart from one small wading bird flying around. The hills on one side and the lake on the other made for some stunning views.
After taking our photos, we drove across the dam to the other side. There were a couple of cars and motorcycles parked here. When we got out of the car, we could see quite a few fishermen here. Some with traditional rods, while others were swimming with nets. The views were just as spectacular on this side.
Additionally at this end, on one side we could observe the depth markers, basically telling us that the lake was quite low at the moment. On the other side we could see the man made canal that channels the water to where it is needed.
As we left the dam, we saw several potentially nice temple sites that are still being constructed. I would think in a couple of years' time this area could well be on the tourist route.
In conclusion, the epic journey getting there aside, there is some beautiful scenery to be seen. This area is developing, so see it now before the natural beauty gets spoilt.

Re: Pranburi Dam - Photo Report
My wife and I took a drive to Pranburi dam yesterday while other family members were "playing" at Wat Huay Mongkol, as it's only a 10 minute or so drive away from there (and well signposted - no satnav needed ). I wanted to see what our local water supply was like during this drought season. BB produced this photo report thread two years ago, almost exactly, so I thought I might just post a picture of the same island BB posted to give some comparative idea on water levels then and now. Although lower, I must say there's a lot more water in there than I expected.
Re: Pranburi Dam - Photo Report
Good comparison
Looks as though we'll be alright for a few weeks yet.

Re: Pranburi Dam - Photo Report
Great posts, great pictures. We were up there about same time as BB and similar traveling terrain. Starting at this end from Thap Tai area. We had a 4 wheel drive Everest at that time but even so it was an unbelievably white knuckle trip. Wife at 1st being so irritated she would not talk at all, progressing to almost complete meltdown. Confessed later she actually had visions of me taking her out there to off her and ditch the carcass and including the fact that I always included a small shovel in the emergency kit. Still irritated enuf wen we got to the dam rhat she didn't want to stay long. No adventure at all in some of these women's bones.
Returned by a different route of course but GPS still didn't have it sorted out very well so arrived back at the highway at the far end of Pranbury.

As time passes and the church continues to fall into greater disarray, it is my personal belief that much of this is due to the increasing liberal thinking that has infiltrated all denominations. Some churches are growing incredibly, some are stagnant, and some are diminishing; but we all seem to be suffering the same bent toward doing "what feels good to me" because "Jesus Loves me just the way I am." We quickly and glibly quote the scriptures pertaining to Jesus having regularly spent time with tax collectors and sinners and Jesus' Love for all, but give little time or thought to what the purpose of His heart was…and still is; the saving of souls. If we pack the house, but ignore the ways in which we are causing new Christians to fall, we had been better off allowing the congregation to dwindle down to nothing and the building to stay empty and fall into ruin.
Matthew 18:6-7 reads:
"But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea. Woe unto the world because of offences! For it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!"

March Madness has arrived, with the official release of the 2014 Brackets. While some teams are preparing for their first opponent in this year's NCAA Tournament, others are feeling snubbed after being left out of the big dance. But, like it or not, we are officially down to 68 teams and 68 teams only. No more bubble talk. Some teams popped their own bubbles by securing a berth in the tourney, while others' were forced to watch the selection committee pop them by leaving them out of postseason play. With that part over and done with, it is now time to focus on the teams who are still alive, as well as predictions and sleeper and upset picks for those who may still be standing as March Madness commences with the Final Four in North Texas the first weekend in April. With that being said, I will offer some upset picks and predictions for my Final Four, with a brief breakdown of all four regions of the brackets, beginning with the No. 1 overall seed in the 2014 NCAA Tournament, the Florida Gators.

I'm still thinking about all this.
Found a series of six articles that discuss things here.
The author claims that it's foolish to accept a simple linear relationship between quantity of money(or it's equivalent, interest rates) and price levels.
Instead he claims the situation is non-linear, multivariate, discontinuous, and has some built-in feedback loops.
We are using some big words here, so we must be onto something good!
To me the articles seem to fit well with the Janszen Scenario (the old ka-POOM theory).

Thoom - Arabic Garlic Sauce
Chef's Note
"This is that magical white garlic sauce served all over the Middle East in one form or another. Thousands of my felow ex-expats know it as it comes with wonderful Saudi broasted chicken (like Al-Baik). In some countries this sauce is almost mayonaissey, and in others it is a more flow-ey sauce. I like the stiff version, but it is more time consuming as it's harder to blend. Edit: This recipe is stiffer, but flavor authentic to what I had in KSA. If you don't like so much garlic, use less. There are all sizes of garlic heads (made me feel kinda bad that Jennifer B felt so betrayed). Like any recipe, adjust to your own tastes. If you don't know the strength of raw garlic - bite into a piece! And taste as you go like you would do with any dish. I never believed a recipe should be followed blindly - I'm too picky. Bon Appetite!"
READY IN:15mins
YIELD:1 Pint jar
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 cup canola oil
- 1 head garlic, cleaned
- 1 egg white (optional)
- 1⁄8 cup lemon juice, plus
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- water
- salt
- Use a blender as the well on a food processor is too big for this. Try a wand blender, I havent, but if you have a strong one, I bet it's just the ticket.
- Drop into the blender: cleaned garlic, egg-white and a few teaspoons oil. Blend and add remaining oil by the teaspoon whilst continually blending. Expect to spend a little time now, dribbling in the canola oil (don't break the sauce!).
- You are creating an emulsion, like mayonnaise. At first it will look runny, but keep dripping the oil in gradually, and it will begin to thicken when about 1/3 - 1/2 cup is blended. Make it as stiff or as relaxed as you like, but if you add oil or lemon too much at a time, it will separate into plain oil & puree'd garlic, not an emulsion.
- If the emulsion is too thick to blend, dilute it with the lemon-juice and later w/ water (when you have the level of flavor you want from the lemon but you want to thin the sauce). Conversely, thicken it by adding more oil -- I have scared myself w/ an emulsion that was very fluid till I realized I had added too much lemon juice. So, more garlic, more oil, more blending and voila, problem solved.
- I like to keep this quite stiff as I use it like mayo, but it's harder to blend that way: it gets so thick you have to use a spatula to knock down the top so it will keep blending.
- When most of the oil is emulsified, salt to taste.
- I have seen Americanized versions of this sauce calling for everything from yogurt to mashed potatoes(!) You not need a dairy product in this. Or potatoes, lol!
- Made this way, this will keep a long time, like mayo (the egg is optional). If it's too garlicky for you, add another 1/2 C oil like you did the first cup. This is the real deal, promise!

Business has been growing briskly, but earnings that came in well below Wall Street's expectations caused last week's precipitous drop.

New Horizons: Pluto Revealed
New Horizons: Pluto Revealed
The New Horizons spacecraft has been beaming remarkable images and other data on Pluto and its moons back to Earth in the months following its historic July 2015 flyby, and team scientists have been working hard to make sense of the raw data. They are learning that Pluto is an active world unlike any other in the solar system, with rugged ice mountains, vast nitrogen plains, and a retinue of peculiar moons. The talk will showcase these latest mission results and what they mean for our understanding of Pluto, and the outer solar system, and will look ahead to New Horizons' continuing mission into the Kuiper Belt.

You know it may have been a crazy few weeks if you're looking forward to an over-24-hour trip with two small kids because you'll get to sit down a lot. And because when you get there, at some point you just may have a long enough chunk of time where you don't have to use the car seat so you can actually wash (and hang dry, which takes all the time) the vaguely poopy car seat cover. Yes, the same car seat cover that will be gracing us with its presence in a metal tube hurtling through the sky far above the Pacific, Alaska, Canada, and finally the East Coast of the United STATES OF AMURRICCAAAA! Moving with 2.5 weeks' notice is no joke, and I may have cracked under the pressure.
I have to keep this short, because I'm supposed to be packing and I can't get caught sitting in front of the computer when a certain someone walks in.
So I'm going to go ahead and make it awkward and say a formal goodbye to our very special group of friends here in Okinawa. You have been generous with your hearts and homes, way more generous than us, in fact. I feel like I've been kind of overwhelmed and take-take-taking from people for at least the last year, and I don't believe in karma but this is better: in our world without karma, you all live the infinity of God's grace (and mercy, when I'm late to meet you for yet another time and you're still friends with me).
Thanks for the last three years: the friendships, the dinners, the playdates, the encouragement. And lately, thanks for the last-this-and-thats, the pictures you let me take, the patience, the handshakes and side hugs and real hugs, the emails and the presents and the cards and the dinners (everything feels so undeserved) and thanks for loving us and our kids so well.
And to everyone else: see you in Virginia!

Book: Awaken
Author: Meg Cabot
Recommend: Worth finishing the series but only just…
I loved the first two books in this series. It was actually fun to read which was shocking considering how much the author usually annoys me. However, this book seemed to have far too much going on with no breath between any action sequence – at all. The author was attempting to go for fast paced and exciting but it became so frenzied that it toppled over and caused me as a reader to become annoyed and detached due to the fact that it never slowed down. This one needed to be longer and not quite so easy to predict.
It wasn't all negative though. the story was decently pulled towards a reasonable conclusion and I find it satisfying to reach the end, even though I was not even remotely as enamored with the characters as I had been. I also think that it would have been better if I had read them as a complete set instead of having to wait for book three. By the time it came out, I was so far removed from the first two that it was hard to get back into it.
Not a bad read but nothing that made me super excited to check out.

Room?s details
Estampa Popular was a complex artistic phenomenon active in the context of anti-Franco political movements. Made up of an extensive network of groups all over Spain, it was committed to an art engaged with the world, an art that was comprehensible and accessible, removed from the elitism of the abstract avant-garde. This explains its preference for Realism, in the broadest sense of the term, and for the medium of engraving to express its criticism of the dictatorship.

Automobile crashes are the leading cause of death for African Americans under the age of 14, and the second leading cause of death between the ages of 15 to 24," says Rodney Slater, secretary of the Department of Transportation, who has strongly embraced the Buckle Up America campaign initiated by President Clinton in 1997.
In 1998, a study published in the Archives of Pediatric & Adolescent Medicine, found that black children ages five to 12 are almost three times more likely to face a risk of dying in a motor vehicle than their white counterparts.
This is partly because African Americans do not take the proper precautions for themselves or their children when driving motor vehicles. African American and Hispanic parents admit that more than 18% of the time, their children do not use the appropriate restraints when riding in a vehicle, compared to 13.3% and 15% of whites and other groups, respectively.
Other factors contributing to the great disparity in car crashes between African Americans and whites are miles driven, road conditions, and overloaded cars. However, experts say the lack of seat belt use is a grave contributor.
Dr. Jim Nichols, director of the office of research and traffic records for the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) says, "Seat belts are approximately 45% to 50% effective in preventing death and severe injury in a car crash or accident."
Although the rate at which African Americans use safety restraints has increased since 1994, its still 4.4% lower than whites, according to a survey conducted by the NHTSA.


text: Hello Guys and Girls, lets explore a very blackhat method of making money with me. Before you start, I have a few words for you: 1. This method is 200% blackhat 2. Partially unethical 3.

I am gonna show you how to rank on Diggs first page and drive insane amount traffic without buying fake votes. Fake voting works 1 out of 100 times at Digg now a days. By insane amount of traffic I didn't mean 10k or 20k. I meant 100K+. Yes, digg's 1st page sites get that much traffic over night. You will need a domain and a VPS hosting to start with. Steps: 1. Register a news related domain. Like www.socialpeoplenews.com etc. 2. Install wordpress with a clean news site theme 3. Follow any large news site to add pages like Disclaimer, Privacy Policy, Editors' list etc. Just make it professional. 4. Now post some copied news article from other news site. Post the articles on back date to make the site look bit older. 5. Now we gonna write our article which will rank on the front page of Digg. We will make a news...lol Yes, we will make a news that will touch people. The story should be about someone ordinary who is serving the society from inspiration. Use your imagination. Here is a demo story: Code: http://technorati.com/lifestyle/article/rickshaw-puller-sets-an-example-in/ (This story is not fake. It is real) 6. Publish your article and submit to digg. Put a few vote and wait to see your traffic explosion. 7. You will receive lots of traffic in short time. So you better be prepared to monetize them. Best monetization- Adsense, CPA, Amazon 8.

Yesterday I caught a flight from St. Louis back to Denver, only to grab my car and drive to a 3.5 hour FAST Defense class near Boulder. This class was taught by FAST Defense founder and my self-defense teacher, Bill Kipp. While I've done quite a bit of private training with him, I hadn't yet taken his formal class with other students so this was exciting. My staff, Ashley & Camella, also joined me…both of their first full-contact self-defense experiences. Also joining us was GFB volunteers, Chris Lacis and Lisa Poole. See a photo of my team, as well as a bunch of new friends at left.
In just a few short hours, Bill and his incredible team took a class full of timid but brave souls and turned them into fighters. Together we learned to set boundaries with both friends and strangers, use our voice as an effective self-defense tool and fight back if necessary. Class ended with two, full-contact fights with padded attackers in bullet man suits. I got extra special attention in my last fight, by getting surprised by three attackers. Game on for multiple assailants!
FAST Defense courses are taking place all over the world, and I'm working with Bill to make sure even more people know about his exceptional program. His class proves you don't need to be a black belt to save your life. You don't need to enroll in years of training to defend yourself. One night will give you the confidence and basic skills to survive a scrappy confrontation, and will leave you wanting more. Learn more at http://www.fastdefense.com (new website coming soon…)

What's it like to be an Arts & Science (A & S) co-op student at U of T Scarborough (UTSC)?
Kanwar Gill
4th year, Computer Science co-op student and Co-op Students' Association (CSA) president
Work Terms at: Environment Canada; IBM Canada; CIBC
A: Being in the A & S Co-op program has tremendously impacted my personality both in professional and personal life. In the beginning it seemed like a huge hurdle to get my resume finished and prepare for mock interviews. However, it was well worth the effort. The preparation leading up to the interviews helped me to ace the interview and successfully secure the placement. My secret to success? I made sure that I'm always working hard, especially before the first work term when I didn't have any strong experience. It was critical to get guidance from my co-op advisor and work on it. That way it helped me later on when I had to edit my resume with the new experience. I would edit it myself and send the new resume over to my co-op advisor which saved me a lot of time before applying for the next work term.
I picked the Computer Science co-op program due to its high demand and opportunities available in the GTA. It's a great program to be in; you learn about new technologies and the important foundations such as algorithms and data structures. However, working alongside my degree amplified my in-class experience towards my work experience and vice-versa. After returning from work term I felt much more confident in the CS courses. Through my work experience, I could easily relate the challenges I faced with my fellow colleagues and professors and work towards better solutions. Overall, it helped me examine problems from a whole new perspective. I am confident that my work experience will definitely help me in applying for full time positions once I graduate. In fact, it's quite easy to approach your previous employers and find a job in the same company. If not for the co-op program at UTSC, I wouldn't have earned so much valuable work experience.
Esmeralda Bukuroshi
4th year Chemistry co-op student
Work terms at: Centennial College; NOVA Chemical
A: The co-op program at UTSC gave me the opportunity to work as a math and science tutor at Centennial College, and as a research technologist at NOVA Chemicals in Calgary. Both positions were challenging, rewarding and fun. If I could do it again, I would not change a thing. Both of these unique roles confirmed my undivided love for chemistry and have revealed potential career paths that I had never considered before. My advice to a student entering the co-op program is to allot time for extra-curricular activities that you enjoy and learn from. These activities will expand your communications and networking skills. Every person you meet has a story. Don't hesitate to ask about their career paths.
Diviya Elango
4th year, Cell & Molecular Biology co-op student
Work Terms at: Environment Canada; Hospital for Sick Kids
A: My experience as a Science co-op student at UTSC has been incredible! I am a senior Cell & Molecular Biology Specialist (co-op) student, fascinated by cells and cellular research. I chose to get into the co-op stream in my first year, after hearing many positive reviews, and attending the How to get into co-op session offered by the CSA and the co-op department. From the start, the co-op coordinators have been very supportive; their guidance was present not only during my work term but also consistently through my study terms and it made my co-op experience all the more meaningful and pleasant!
With co-op, I did not feel like another number; it was a very inclusive and fun experience where I got to know my coordinators and fellow peers over my years at UTSC. Further, co-op enabled me to form strong professional networks outside of campus with employers and working professionals. Hence, graduating from the program, I feel confident and prepared to go into the job market. I feel that the co-op experience is really what you make of it. Hence, my advice to students entering co-op is to take the initiative to connect and network! Get to know your co-op coordinators, employers and other working professionals in your setting well.
Co-op Student Feature: Neuroscience Student Rachelle Martell
This is a challenging program with significant long-term rewards. If you are someone who wants practical skills and are willing to put in the work, co-op will help you reach your goals. It not only gives you an opportunity to apply your learning in the workplace, but also a shines a light on where your talents can develop into careers that you may not have been aware even existed.
Co-op Student Feature: City Studies Student Kaitlyn Osborne
I had the opportunity to combine my passion for cities and culture with the experience of working at the Greater Toronto Airport Authority (GTAA); as a result, learned that my program can be applied to several fields outside of the traditional city planning career path. During my work term, I put my research skills to good use and worked with the route manager to tease out high-level trends based on the cultural ties between cities as well as geography-based statistics. This helped to create new and stronger connections between destinations around the world.

You can be discouraged by failure or you can learn from it, So go ahead and make mistakes. Make all you can. Because remember that?s where you will find success." - Thomas J. Watson

Just last month, a group of whale watchers got an unexpected treat when they witnessed a twirling finback whale.
The park is a great place to whale watch, especially between February and April, and several kinds of whale are frequently seen in these waters, including the blue, humpback, finback, pilot, and the occasional gray whale.

The more common marine mammals that can be observed from the park, albeit with a diminishing frequency in recent years include pilot whale Globicephala melaena, minke whale Balaenoptera autorostrata, finback whale B. physalus (V) and harbour seals Phoca vitulina.
Inspired by Pluvialis' post on the finback whale skeleton exhibited at Cambridge, I took this picture of a blue whale mounted in front of the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History.

Ishmael discussed Hairy Harry while the Tailorcraft wiggled through the last hundred miles to Jameson, in between showing his passenger such curiosities as a finback whale coming up to spout between dives, over seventy feet of smoothly shaped gray-blue creature calmly pursuing a majestic existence framed by whitecaps on green waves.
He frequently directed them to a fine school of black-fish, or bade them see whales, or man their canoes for the chase of the finback; he told them when to plant and gather in their corn, and foretold to them the approach of storms with an accuracy productive of the greatest advantages to them.
"It the museum even had the skeleton of a finback whale that had washed up in the 1960s..."

Like previous conferences in the series, this event will be hosted by IMRF Members the Swedish Sea Rescue Society, and much of it will take place at or near their fine headquarters by the shore at Långedrag, a short distance from central Gothenburg. Great rates are being negotiated at hotels in the city, and transport between the hotels and the conference venue is included in the course fee. Watch the IMRF websites for details.
与此前系列研讨会一样,本次会议由国际海上人命救助联盟会员单位—瑞典海上救助协会主办。大部分会场毗邻协会精美雅致的总部,坐落于Långedrag小镇岸边,距离哥特堡市中心很近。 主办方与酒店谈妥了最优惠的价格,往返酒店和会场的交通费已经包含在会议费用中。详情登陆国际海上人命救助联盟网站。
The Gothenburg conferences are distinguished from most 'conferences' in two important ways. First, they encourage real discussion, not just listening to a series of presentations. The June 2017 event ('G4') will be no different. It will be based on a series of mass rescue case studies, introduced by people directly involved in the incidents themselves, and supported by expert panellists discussing the issues arising. And you will be able to contribute to the debate.
Secondly, we include a live element. This, like the detail of the main conference itself, is still being carefully planned, and details will be announced later – but we can tell you now that you will be invited to take part in a live mass rescue operation, either as an observer or as an active responder! The aim is to get us all thinking about the issues we will be discussing as the conference goes on. It's an 'optional extra', though. For those whose time is really limited, the results will be reported on the first morning of the conference itself.
The exercise will begin at 1600 on Sunday 11 June. The conference runs on Monday & Tuesday 12 & 13 June. You can book your place now – and, as noted on the front page, if you take advantage of our special early registration rate you can save €200 per person!
But don't delay. To qualify for the 'early bird' discount you must make AND pay for your registration by Friday 6 January. And there are only 140 places available. So, visit www.imrfmro.org/registrationg4 now...

The 28-year-old actor - who plays Diego in the romantic drama - admits he loved playing the love interest of Penelope's alter-ego Gemma because they got on really well on set.
He said: "Well, she's an incredible talent, as an actress. As a human being, she's just a really sweet, caring, funny, quirky, wonderful person. And she's got an amazing sense of humour. She's got the charm.
"I feel like a lot of our best memories on set were when we were just laughing. We were hanging out and talking, and trading jokes and little peculiar observations. It was just a lot of fun. She's great!"
The hunky star admits it was Penelope who drew him to the movie because he is a fan of her work, and he also liked the idea of travelling around Europe for filming.
Speaking to Collider.com, he explained: "Getting to make a love story with Penelope Cruz, and getting to work with [director] Sergio Castellitto, especially after seeing the other movie that he made with Penelope, called 'Don't Move' - it's a Spanish movie that's really good - I just thought it was a golden opportunity. I got to travel to Europe, and go to Italy and Bosnia. For me, that was a really big opportunity."

When it comes to the NBA draft, every team is guilty of making mistakes. With this year's edition rapidly approaching, this seemed like a good time to take a look back at each team's worst lottery pick of the last 15 years.
As fans, this will be a painful trip down memory lane for all of us, but take solace in the fact that we'll be going through this together.
Now, there are a couple ground rules to keep in mind before going forward:
- While the vast majority of these picks were draft busts, that isn't the case for everyone. There are a handful of teams that have drafted well over the last 15 years and their pick will be the least productive of an otherwise solid group.
- If a player's draft rights were traded before he played a game for his initial team, the acquiring team is on the hook for that player's failures. For instance, Minnesota won't be chastised for drafting O.J. Mayo in 2008 because they were smart enough to deal him for Kevin Love later that night.
- The player must also have played at least one season with the team that drafted him (or acquired his rights).
- As the title suggests, we are only factoring in the first 14 picks of each draft. Also, we will be closing each slide with a brief rundown of players each team could have had if it didn't go in the direction it inevitably went in.
Let's get started.

Preliminary views on fair value update July 16, 2013 Insights
The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) recently issued its Preliminary Views regarding the measurement of fair value and the application of fair value, including note disclosures. The Preliminary Views, Fair Value Measurement and Application, describes how fair value should be defined and measured, which assets and liabilities should be measured at fair value, and which information about fair value should be disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. It is the GASB's preliminary view that the definition of fair value should be the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The objective of a fair value measurement would be to estimate the exit price of assets and liabilities using observable or unobservable inputs.
In determining an appropriate fair value measurement, the characteristics of the asset or liability would be taken into account, such as the condition and location of an asset. Markets also would be considered. In a fair value measurement, the sale of an asset or the transfer of a liability would be expected to take place in the principal market or, in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market to which a government has access. The GASB believes that transaction costs, such as commissions, do not meet the definition of an asset and, therefore, should be recognized when incurred.
It is the GASB's preliminary view that investments generally should be measured at fair value. An investment would be defined as a security or other asset that a government holds primarily for the purpose of income or profit and the present service capacity of which is based solely on its ability to generate cash, to be sold to generate cash, or to procure services for the citizenry. Certain investments would be excluded from measurement at fair value and should continue to be measured according to existing GASB standards, such as investments in money market instruments with remaining maturity at time of purchase of one year or less.
Under current accounting standards, state and local governments are required to disclose how they arrived at their measures of fair value if they are not based on quoted market prices. In the Preliminary Views document, the GASB proposes expanding those disclosures to include the levels of inputs a government uses to measure fair value and the judgments made to arrive at those inputs.
The Preliminary Views are available for comment until September 30, 2013.

On Dec. 16, 2016, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) issued the latest major record-keeping rule change that the agency had set its sights on during the final year of the Obama administration. Pursuant to the new rule, an employer has a "continuing obligation" to make and maintain accurate records of each recordable injury and illness. As a result, employers who fail to properly record workplace injuries and illnesses can be issued citations for unrecorded injuries and illnesses for up to the full five-year record-retention period for which such records must be maintained.
The final rule would become effective on Jan. 18, 2017 – the last week of the Obama administration. The text of the rule confirms that it is adopted "in response to a decision of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit." In that 2012 case, AJM LLC v. Secretary of Labor (Volks), the D.C. Circuit concluded that OSHA could not cite employers for failing to record on-the-job injuries or illnesses if the violation took place more than six months before the citation was issued. OSHA never appealed that decision, and instead instituted rule-making changes it claimed would "clarify" that the agency could cite employers for record-keeping violations for up to five years after the initial violation. OSHA posited that the violation "continued" indefinitely and tolled the six-month statute of limitations because each day an injury or illness was unrecorded, the violation occurred again.
OSHA claims that the new rule merely clarifies the status quo. OSHA Administrator David Michaels said in a Dec. 16, 2016, statement that the rule "simply returns us to the standard practice of the last 40 years." OSHA further claims that the final rule itself adds no new compliance obligations, and does not require employers to make records of any injuries or illnesses for which records are not already required.
But the regulated community disagrees. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce's Executive Director of Labor Law Policy, Mark Freedman, stated that "[t]he court in Volks was unequivocal that the statute of limitations for issuing citations on recordkeeping violations is six months despite OSHA's attempts to say six months means five years." As a result, the rule currently stands on tenuous grounds. The rule could be overturned by Congress through the Congressional Review Act, if the Republican House, Senate and incoming President agree. Moreover, due to the decision in Volks, any challenge to the rule in federal court or before the Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission would have binding precedent on which to base its challenge. In addition, the Trump administration could merely elect to delay enforcement of the rule.
Nevertheless, employers are wise to plan to now maintain injury and illness records for five years. Barring a successful challenge, employers will be bound by the rule on Jan. 18, 2017. If the rule goes unchallenged, employers could be subject to numerous, years-old citations that they would have to defend with stale evidence.

EFI previews enhancements to Pace MIS at PRINT 09
Monday, September 14, 2009
Press release from the issuing companyChicago – EFI, a world leader in customer-focused digital printing innovation, is previewing forthcoming enhancements to its EFI Pace management system with new options and tools aimed at streamlining workflows to improve productivity for print providers. On display in booth 2500 at PRINT 09 (through Sept. 16th at McCormick Place), EFI Pace offers end-to-end print shop and production management for mid-sized commercial and specialty printers.
A new Apple iPhone interface is one of the new features on display at PRINT 09, and available in the next version. This is a true iPhone application, not just a browser viewer, designed with sales people and executive managers in mind. The interface will enable users to estimate jobs, review the status of jobs, review customer accounts and track shipments, all from the palm of their hand. It allows for texting, calling and mapping locations of customers and contacts, as well as the ability to use integration within Pace to seamlessly handle communications and updates from the management system from anywhere using the iPhone toolset and interface.
The next Pace release will extend already robust integration with the broader EFI solution set, adding the Fiery Central workflow solution to the list to provide a better digital workflow in fewer steps. The next version also has new internationalization features to address the needs of the growing international customer base. These include native language support and currency and date format options by locale.
"The upcoming release of Pace, version 22, has many customer-requested features combined with a new EFI integration that elevate the offering to the next level," said Jay Farr, general manager of EFI Pace. "It's especially important in today's environment for print providers to get the most from the systems they have in place, which is why we've loaded this version with productivity-boosting features and new cool tools like the iPhone app."
Tathwell Printing of Charlotte, N.C., is a long-time Pace user. President John Rawlins said: "EFI Pace allows us to do more work with less people, from initial customer inquiry through estimating, order entry, production and invoicing. EFI Pace runs the show; we would almost be out of business without it. We look forward to the powerful new features of the upcoming version, which will bring more productivity to our operation."

Myofunctional Orthodontics - Before and after
Before and After Treatments. These are 3 patients who had Orthodontic Treatment in combination with the Myofunctional Therapy program.
This self-ligating bracket system with high-technology wires is a unique mechanical system that permits low forces to work in conjunction with the muscles of the face, tongue, bone and soft tissues.
These low forces minimize discomfort, and greatly increase the types of cases that can be treated to a symmetrical facial result without high-force expansion or extractions.
Extraordinary results
Faster treatment time
Fewer appointments
Fuller wider Smiles
Better facial balance and aesthetics
Dental Appliances have been shown to reduce the number of Migraine attacks by about 60%, especially in those who get frequent attacks
British Dental Journal 1996
Traditional orthodontic braces involve 'tying-in' arch wires with small clear or coloured elastic bands. This process of 'tying-in' the wire inherently causes friction between the wire and hence the tooth. This results in slower tooth movement.
However, with the Damon System, these clever little brackets have a built-in sliding door that holds the wire allowing it to move freely in a friction-less system.
This means that we can use high-technology wires to move the teeth comfortably, with fewer visits and in a shorter space of time, a bit-like a surfer riding a wave with Damon Brackets our teeth are riding the smooth wires.
Not every Dentist uses Damon Braces. The reason I do is simple, with more effective treatment in –hand, I want my patients to benefit from this exciting technology.
That All mouth breathers will have crooked teeth. No exceptions!
Widening of the upper jaw with a removable appliance will stop bed wetting in 80% of children who suffer from it.
Most parents enjoy the pleasure of seeing their children grow. It is a very exciting time as their development is very rapid, and ever changing. Many parents soon realise that their children's teeth are not sitting correctly and seek advice.
Unfortunately, they are normally told to wait until all the permanent teeth have erupted before embarking on an Orthodontic pathway.
This is poor advice, as so very much more can be done for your child at a much earlier age.
We like to see children as young as 5 years of age. The earlier we see them the easier it is to actually modify and correct many of the bad oral muscular or myofunctional habits.
It is now proven that these are the bad habits that cause the teeth to be crooked in the first instance. Early correction of these myofunctional habits:
Encourages nasal breathing
Corrects the positioning of the jaws and teeth
Encourages normal forward facial growth, creating better looking faces
Improves overall general health, and posture of the growing child
Before and After Treatments. These are 3 patients who had Orthodontic Treatment in combination with the Myofunctional Therapy program.
