ACC Atlantic #1 Clemson Tigers
2007 Results and Offseason
Clemson got off to a hot start in 2007 before falling in late September to Georgia Tech in Atlanta. Still, the Tigers had an Atlantic title in their sights before Matt Ryan lofted BC to a come from behind win in Death Valley. Clemson had another banner recruiting year and retained the services of RB James Davis and WR Aaron Kelly who both flirted with the NFL. HC Tommy Bowden has his best team since he came to Clemson in 1999.
2007 Record: 9-4, 5-3
Ret. Starters: 16Ret. Lettermen: 52
Off PPG 28.8 (2nd),RYPG 138.4 (3rd), PYPG 232.9 (4th)
Def PPG 18.6 (2nd),RYPG 97.4 (4th), PYPG 165.9 (1st)Offense (8 Ret. Starters, 23 Ret. Lettermen)
It was thought before last season that then junior Cullen Harper would just be a placeholder at QB until highly recruited Willy Korn was ready to take the reins. But Harper turned his first season starting into an All ACC season and Korn was redshirted. The senior starts off the season as my top QB in the ACC. The Tigers have arguably the most talented running back tandem in the country (notice I said talented). Clemson must find a way to use Davis and CJ Spiller effectively to maximize their abilities. The weakness of Clemson is their o-line where they lost four starters again this offseason. Last year, the o-line had to replace four starters from '06 and struggled for much of the season to open holes for the backs. Kelly leads an experienced WR corps for Harper to throw to. Joining Kelly will be sure handed Tyler Grisham and speedster Jacoby Ford.
Defense (8 Ret. Starters, 27 Ret. Lettermen)The defense will have an incredible 27 lettermen back from a unit ranking 2nd PPG and 1st in PYPG in ACC play. From the d-line DE Philip Merling is gone but three other starters return. True freshmen Da'Quan Bowers was ranked as the #1 recruit in the country by some services. He will be joined by Ricky Sapp, Dorell Scott, and Rashad Jackson (inj. recently). The Tigers lose all three starting LBs from a year ago. DeAndre McDaniel is good at pass coverage and had six pass break ups a year ago. Kavell Conner had two tackles for loss last season. The secondary returns all four starters from the unit ranked #1 in PYPG in ACC play. The safety duo of Michael Hamlin and Chris Clemons is especially good.
Special Teams
K Matt Bucholz must improve his accuracy over last year when he was just 22-36. Jimmy Maners had a solid season with 16 punts inside the 20. Clemson will use Spiller and Ford on returns for a dynamite combo.
Newcomers of NoteThe aforementioned Bowers will be joined by several other top recruits. OL Antoine McClain and Dalton Freeman could see time if the o-line returnees are not up to snuff. RB Jamie Harper is heir apparent to Davis and Spiller.
Clemson starts off the season in Atlanta against Alabama. Also in the non-conf they play Furman, SC State, and in-state rival South Carolina. From the Coastal they play permanent opp Ga Tech, vDuke, and @UVA - the easiest draw you can get. Three of the final five are on the road.
Final Thoughts
Tiger fans have been waiting for a season like this since Bowden arrived. The expectations have always been high in Tiger Town, but not this high. For Clemson to get over the hump and into the ACCCG, they have to avoid that banana peel game or the 4th quarter letdown that has plagued them the last couple of years. Clemson is as good or better than every team on the schedule, so anything less than an Atlantic Division title is a disappointment.
Likely Wins: vCitadel, vNC St, vSC St, vGT, vDuke, vMryld, @UVALikely Loss: None
Swing Games: vAlab, @Wake, @FSU, @BC, vSo. Car.
10-2, 6-2

Plan Nine skate park in the Mills Mall in Hazelwood closes at 6:45 p.m. on Sundays. But some things are worth making an exception for. Owner Casey Otto recalls a recent day when he got just such a request: "One of my employees came up and said, 'There's a guy on the phone who wants to know if Lil Wayne can come skate here.'"
Otto agreed, naturally, and after Sunday's I Am Still Music Tour, the rapper showed up with three tour busses, a couple vans and a taxi for a skate session that ended with Lil Wayne in the hospital getting nine stitches.
"It was just one of those falls where the board slips out from under you," says Otto. "He was bleeding pretty bad. There was blood on his shirt, blood all over the ground. And he was chill about it. He was like, 'Put a Band-Aid on me, I'll go skate some more.'"
Otto says it was pretty clear that the rapper needed medical attention -- he estimates the cut was about an inch long and a half-inch wide. He was given bandages and an ice pack, but even then, Otto says, "he did not want to go to the hospital. He wanted to skate."
Finally, at the urging of his crew and the Plan Nine staff, Wayne relented and went to the DePaul Health Center.
The session was arranged by the I Am Still Music tour's dedicated "skate liaison," who phoned Plan Nine and told Otto they'd be there between 2 and 3 a.m. He also promised Otto tickets to the show.
Otto admits that he wasn't sure whether to believe it was really happening until the tickets were there, waiting for him.
After the show, which Otto describes as "super rad," he went back to Plan Nine to get ready. At exactly 2 a.m., he got a call from the crew. The massive touring party parked in an area reserved for police during the mall's operating hours. The skate liaison tried out the park for 45 minutes or so, and then, "Lil Wayne came in, said hello and then went straight into skating. He was all about skating," says Otto.
"I guess he's been doing it for three months. I think he's something like 28, but he skates like a fifteen-year-old kid. All about it, eager, and excited about getting better."
The rapper's crew had originally arranged to be there most of the night -- management asked Otto if they could stay until 7 or 8 a.m. Lil Wayne hadn't been skating for long when he fell. "He was just warming up," says Otto.
Plan Nine was ready to accommodate a huge group of Wayne's touring crew, but the rapper hasn't been letting too many people watch him as he learns, Otto says. "Until he gets better, he's not totally down with a huge audience."
The skate park has been open in its current incarnation for a little over two years. Otto actually helped build the park back when it was under corporate management -- they built four more in other Mills malls around the country. But it's been vacant for some time now. "They probably spent millions of dollars on it and then walked away," says Otto. It took him a couple years of negotiating with the mall to re-open the park as an independent company. Now, Otto's company hosts everything from monthly all-night skate sessions to Red Bull national qualifying events.
"We're proud of what we do," he says. "It's a really nice park."

Why Are There Snowblowers in Miami?: Transform Your Business Using the Five Principles of Engagement
By Steven D Goldstein
As a senior executive for a major department store chain, Steve Goldstein was shocked to find snowblowers for sale at the company s Miami store. When Goldstein asked a salesman on the floor how long this had been going on, he replied, I ve been here for thirty years, and we ve been getting them since I ve been here. For Goldstein, this one snowblower experience crystallizes all the dysfunction he has seen in business over the course of his career.
Whether it s having snowblowers for sale in a place where it never snows or a more pervasive issue like having so many meetings scheduled there s no time left to actually solve any problems dysfunction within large organizations is so prevalent that most people either accept it as an inevitable fact of corporate life or assume someone else will deal with it. But must it be this way?
Goldstein s answer to this is a resounding No! In Why Are There Snowblowers in Miami?, heexplains the nature of dysfunction present in most companies and other organizations, why it occurs, and most importantly, what leaders, at all levels, can do to tackle these issues and improve performance.
A seasoned business leader with more than three decades of experience, he has discovered that almost all dysfunction is caused by a lack of engagement, and that it is fixable. Goldstein outlines his unique Five Principles of Engagement and demonstrates how top-level leaders can and should use them to improve the way they interact with their teams, employees, and customers. He offers pragmatic, proven techniques for solving problems most leaders face: including a revolutionary time-saving meeting model; a new process for making more efficient decisions with all participants having greater accountability; a new system that impels leaders to really know their employees and customers; and other ground-breaking tools.
Inspiring, entertaining and refreshingly honest, Why Are There Snowblowers in Miami? is filled with true stories from the author s own experience as well as anecdotes and insights culled from interviews he has conducted with some of the world s most influential CEOs. From these real-life examples readers will learn how understanding and utilizing the Five Principles of Engagement can lead to powerful and positive change in their own organizations and in their lives.

The 5577 Challenge
5 guys from the Airplane Factory near Johannesburg and 5 girls with no technical experience attempt to build a South African designed Sling kit aeroplane from scratch in a week. The challenge is that before the clock counts out the last minute of the 7 days, the plane must be airborne. Then, in another 7 days Mike Blyth and James Pitman must fly it the length of the African continent to Europe.

In home brewing and winemaking, a hydrometer is used to work out when fermentation has finished, or how much alcohol is in your new brew. They aren't essential if you're brewing from a kit, but they do take a lot of the guesswork out of things which means fewer accidents with exploding bottles.
Technically, hydrometers measure how dense a liquid is, compared to water. Hydrometers have various units on the neck which should be explained in the leaflet that comes with them, but ALL hydrometers should have Specific Gravity (SG). This is the ratio of the density of the liquid to the density of water: so water has an SG of 1.000. Sugars make the reading higher, and alcohol makes it lower. Hydrometers are often sold with a specially designed beaker called a trial jar (or test jar), which is essential to get an accurate reading.
Hydrometer on Home Brew Online
Knowing how far farmentation has gone is the most important use for a hydrometer in home brewing and winemaking. If it hasn't finished and you bottle your brew, you're looking at exploding bottles. Many home brewers will tell you horror stories about kitchens awash with sticky liquid and broken glass… don't be one of them!
Working out if fermentation is finished is very simple: test your brew and record the reading. Test it again three days later: if the results are the same, the fermentation has finished and you're ready to go on to the next step in your recipe.
If such things are important to you, you can also use your hydrometer to work out the alcohol by volume (ABV) of your brew. Don't confuse this with the 'potential ABV' given on some hydrometers – that's just a measure of how much sugar there was in there to start off with. Working out the real ABV means knowing the SG at the start (just before the yeast went in) and again at the end (when fermentation had finished). All you do is subtract the smaller number from the larger one and multiply by 131 – and the result is your percentage of alcohol.
Your hydrometer is calibrated to read at a particular temperature, usually 20C. A degree or two either way doesn't make much difference, but big temperature differences certainly do – so don't try to measure the SG of hot or cold liquids. Allow your sample to come to room temperature before using the hydrometer. If that's not possible, use the temperature correction chart that came with your hydrometer.
Fizzy liquids such as sparkling wines are difficult to read because little bubbles tend to form on the sides of the hydrometer. This makes the hydrometer sit higher in the liquid than it should, giving you a false reading. Allow your sample to go flat (preferably overnight) before using the hydrometer.
Took a reading from home made wine ! It was just out the yellow 1.000 can anyone tell me whatvthe alcohol level would be ! This is all new to me

System Display, Management and ControlWhether you need
an ultra-simple operator interface or a robust network configuration and
administration platform, the Vindicator® Command and Control (VCC) Platform
offers all the functionality you require. The VCC Platform communicates with the
V5 Network Security Appliance to deliver a common operator picture for security,
fire and life safety, and building automation information from the Vindicator
network. It also features tools for configuring and administering the devices in
your Vindicator network. The VCC Platform can facilitate elaborate command
centers and simple operator terminals. It enables users to monitor and manage a
single location or multiple, local and remote sites via a powerful yet intuitive
interface. In addition, the system is compatible with many languages and is able
to provide viewing options on virtually any type of display such as CRT,
touchscreen, video wall, plasma, etc.
Platform Highlights The VCC Platform consists of four
applications that interface directly with the V5 Network Security Appliance:
VCC (Vindicator Command and Control) - A graphical user
interface that connects to the V5 via TCP/IP, LAN/WAN, RS485 or fiber. VCC
enables operators to monitor intrusion and perimeter security, access control,
CCTV, and fire and life safety systems from any location. VCC provides mapbased
views of facilities (which can be exported from CAD, satellite images, etc.),
intuitive icons and control buttons, audible alarms, and an easy-to-use
interface for monitoring 10's of thousands of alarm points. Events can be sent
to one or many VCC consoles and routed based on priority, origin or type.
SAW (Security Archive Workstation) - The SAW that connects
directly to the V5 enables operators to log, retrieve, generate and print
customized reports on virtually unlimited system events. Examples of event
information include event description, date, time, user action/reaction, etc.
PC SmartPAK - PC SmartPAK allows users to program and
control Vindicator servers and field devices, monitor alarm activity, and enroll
and manage users of the system.
Vindicator Badge Manager - Designing credentials and
creating users of the system has never been easier. The Badge Manager
photobadging platform provides an intuitive user interface that connects over a
network to the V5 ACS, eliminating the need for multiple software packages and
redundant data entry while allowing for multiple badging stations sharing a
common SQL database.

Yet another WIP. Done in Photoshop CS2 with a Bamboo tablet. I'm not sure how long this one's taken, I'd say about 2 hours for the sketchy one and another 3 or 4 hours for the cleaned up one, but with bathroom/food breaks.... ah, I wasn't paying close attention. And last but not least, a sketch of Thor.

New ideas for breakfast. And win three months' supply of Special K Granola *closed*
It's no secret that I love my food. I'm pretty active (being dragged round a field by a small and perpetually enthusiastic whippet is incredibly exhausting) but still occasionally I do worry about what I eat. We eat a decent meal every night, but I do have a bit of a cake habit. Generally, I try and balance this by forcing myself to eat a healthy breakfast, at least on weekday mornings.
I'm a huge fan of Special K multi-grain porridge. It's a 2 minutes in the microwave job and is really nice. There are bits of different grains in there (oats, barley and rye) and it's sort of chewy and satisfying while still managing to stay quite creamy. I'm a bit addicted. The almond and honey is my favourite, but it's also available in original and a red berries version. Very satisfying.
This week, they sent me some of their new Special K Granola to try – it has a five grain recipe, with oats, barley, wheat, spelt and rye, and is 30 percent less fat than most other granolas. There are two flavours: Raisins & Red Apples; and Cranberry, Pumpkin Seeds & Almonds. I really like them, they're not too sweet and a 45g portion is surprisingly filling. It's particularly nice used as a crunchy topping on a bowlful of fruit and yogurt. Yum.
I've got two whole cases of the lovely stuff to give away: one of each flavour, each containing six packs of eight portions – so (without taking off my shoes and socks – you know my maths skill level), that's 96 portions which must be pretty much a three month supply, no?
The usual English Mum competition rules apply – this giveaway will end at 9am on Wednesday 5th March. To enter, just leave a comment and tell me your favourite breakfast. The winner will be chosen at random. If you're a first time commenter, your comment will not appear straight away.
This competition is now closed. Many congratulations to Deborah Swain whose entry was chosen at random!

Where to Buy Wholesale Plastic BottlesPlastic bottles are common things in your homes. You can use them as food containers or substitute for water pitchers. In fact, you can use them for just about anything depending on your needs and creativity. Since bottles have become common for both household and business uses, many wholesale suppliers are offering them in tremendously cheaper prices compared to regular market price. There are many suppliers who have established their websites for customers interested in wholesale bottles. You can visit their websites, check their offers, make great deals, and place your order. Many wholesale suppliers have found it easier to conduct business on the Internet since most customers do not want to leave the comfort of their homes to find great products in reduced prices. Online suppliers of wholesale bottles usually charge handling and shipping fees based on the quantity of orders. On the other hand, if you prefer to choose wholesale plas
Choosing a Safe Reusable Water Bottle For a Promotional ProductFor your customers' health and the health of the environment, choosing a safe reusable water bottle for a promotional product is very important. Everyone knows that the best way to go green with water is to drink it from the tap in a glass. But, that's not practical for people on the go. People on the go need something to put their water in. There are many different types of water bottles on the market. There's the regular plastic ones that you get from your grocery store or gas station. But, there are big problems with those. They are the worse kind you can choose to drink from because they are made of PET (polyethylene terephthalate), which leaks DEHP (Bis(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate) after repeated use and is a probable carcinogen. These also can harbor bacteria in the cracks and crevices, which is not good for health either. The plastic sports bottle is the next reusable water bottle, but is still not that safe. These are made out of po
Product Sourcing A Drop Shipping Wholesale DistributorIf you have ever wanted to sell products from home for extra money but did not want to invest into building a huge successful business then you will find the ease of sourcing products from a real drop shipping wholesale distributor to handle just what you are looking for. If you do not have the time to start a legal business, buy a bulk quantity of products from a bulk wholesale distributor, build a website, and market your products over the web then you need to source products from a drop shipping wholesale distributor. There are a lot of average people out there just like you wanting to make some extra money on the side who are going to try to use you. Some people have the knowledge of knowing where to source decent name brand products at wholesale prices. They purchase their products from a bulk wholesale distributor and offer those products to people like you, marking the price up a little bit for you to sell. They promote themselv
Retaining Customers With Promotional ProductsKeeping up with your brand name in front of your existing customers is as critical and advertising for your prospects. For small businesses especially, who start out by relying on referrals and word-of-mouth; it is important that you eventually find cost-effective methods through which people can remember you, and find you. Print Media versus Promotional Products While newspaper and magazine advertising is a popular option, it can turn out to be an expensive one, especially for small businesses. Consequently, the creative use of promotional products proves to be more memorable and affordable way to generate brand awareness, as well as recall among your customers. Studies prove that the recall value of promotional products is as high as 76.1% while the value of other advertising media such as banners, television ads and print ads range between 27 and 53 percent. What Makes Promotional Products so Effective? Givi
The Top Classes of Promotional ItemsAdvertising campaigns that feature promotional items are among the most effective, but you may be wondering what types of promotional items are the most popular. According to the sales figures reported to the Promotional Products Association International (PPAI), these are the top five categories of promotional products and the market share that each of them holds. Promotional Apparel With 22.5% of industry sales, promotional apparel is the leader in categories of promotional items by a runaway 10%. These figures include promotional caps, t-shirts, polo shirts, jackets, sweatshirts - anything that is worn. What makes wearables so popular? For one thing, they appeal to both customers and employees, and are bought for a wide range of reasons. They can be part of a motivational strategy or bought as incentives for staff. In many cases, they are bought for wear as uniforms or to be worn by employees for special events. T-shirts and caps are among the most popular giv

A new approach is adopted to study the geometry of the coupler curves associated to geared 5-bar motion. The key idea is to think of a configuration of the mechanism as a point in a higher - dimensional configuration space; the family of all configurations is then represented by an algebraic curve in that space. Coupler curves appear naturally as projections of this curve, so their properties can be deduced by projection, independent of any explicit knowledge of their equations.

NYPD Cop Killer Posted Anti-Police Statement On Facebook
None of his half-dozen aliases hid the truth about Alexander Bonds: The ex-con hated cops.
The 34-year-old cop-killer's rap sheet included six arrests — including one for a 2001 brass knuckles assault with three co-defendants on a police officer.
And his anti-cop sentiments were also expressed in a menacing, homophobic Facebook Live rant from last September.
"Police is f—ts, and this ain't no gimmick," he said at the top of the 11-minute video.
Bonds closed out his monologue with a threat: "N—-s ain't taking it no more, Mr. Officer. I'm here to tell you man. … just keep your a– away from mine."

GRAND ISLE — The trout were "average," but optimism was high at the final day of the 15th Annual Grand Isle Speckled Trout Rodeo at Bridge Side Marina in Grand Isle.
The three day event concluded Sunday and is the first fishing rodeo held on Grand Isle since the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico last year.
"The fishing has been average so far," weigh master William Hano said. "We're seeing a lot of four and five pounders. It's pretty equal to other years."
That is good news for an island community working to shed the physical and public relations effects of the oil spill.
"This rodeo is very important," marina owner Buggie Vegas said. "This sets the stage for the whole summer. Everybody is coming to fish, and to just see each other. I'm seeing people I haven't seen for a year and a half."
Rodeo president and founder Bob Sevin agreed, saying that a lot of people were watching the rodeo closely.
"This is an important thing for Grand Isle right now, cause this kicks off the summer, and everyone is gauging what the summer is going to look like based not only on the participants in the rodeo, but the fishing too," Sevin said.
He added that so far, indications are promising.
"It's going fantastic," Sevin said. "We have more sponsors than we've ever had, and we're catching a lot of nice fish."
Melanie Madere took the top award, the Dudley Gaspard Jr. Memorial Master Angler award, along with the Kathleen Domangue Memorial award for largest trout caught by a female.
Mark Eschete of Grand Isle won the male award, also named for Gaspard, and the overall category with a 6.7-pound speckled trout he caught in the surf off the newly-reopened Elmer's Island on Saturday. Madere took second with a 5.94-pound entry. Barney Gautreau finished third at 5.7 pounds.
"I thought it was a redfish at first," Eschete said of his winning catch. "It wasn't until it got around 10-feet away that I saw it was a trout."
Jai Crosby also caught a 5.70-pound trout, but lost in a tiebreaker to Gautreau. Crosby, however, pulled off the rodeo's only hat trick, sweeping first, second, and third in the flounder category.
Milo Young took first and second place in redfish, with 32- and 31.92-pound entries. Perry Naquin's 5.82-pound sheepshead was good enough for first, and Brenan Keller won cobia with a 34.62-pound catch.
Other winners were Tom Reeves (mangrove snapper, 10.86 pounds), Jason Cain (drum, 26.08 pounds), and Thomas Boudreaux (white trout, 1.9 pounds).
Children's division winners include Bobby Andrew Jackson, who took first and third in hardhead. Mandi Madere took first in speckled trout, along with third in redfish. Zach Delcambre won the redfish category at 20.78 pounds. Destin Ballard was second in both specks and redfish.
Sevin said the organization is working to help the island recover from what seems like an endless series of disasters.
"In the last five years we've been hammered by hurricanes, our beaches were drenched in oil, we've been pounded by heavy weather, and we've lost a lot of our beautiful wildlife and birds," Sevin said. "So we've taken it upon ourselves the last couple of years to beautify the beach. We planted 22 palm trees last year, and if we can make enough money (Sunday), we plan on doing another 22 this year."
Sevin said the organization is also working to revamp the baseball diamond at Grand Isle School.
Speckled Trout Rodeo wraps up

You don't say where you live, but here in Southern California, Ballerina is a large climber. I've seen it go 25' into a pine tree! In one season, it went to the roof of a single story house. Most of the Hybrid Musk roses you'll find on Help Me Find could do well for your use. Just check the heights to see what will fit your need.
You may want to rethink the idea of Mermaid for you Zone 7b garden. Help Me Find reports it's hardy in Zones 8 and 9. From experience, Mermaid doesn't tolerate hard freezes, so if you select it and have them with any frequency, try protecting it by growing it on a wall. If flexibility is important for this planting, forget Mermaid all together. The wood can be used to create tough, hard wood flooring! It's brittle and resists bending, unless the rose has the idea first. It's a great climber, one I wouldn't choose to be without, BUT, I live in Zone 10 with undertones of 9, where it gets 40' to 50' in just a few years. And, those thorns ARE wicked! Huge, curved and very sharp!
William, I don't know if you're aware, but Help Me Find is actively soliciting commercial nurseries to become paying sponsors to advertise here on this site. I notice your employer, Jackson and Perkins, isn't a paying sponsor. Perhaps, you being a J&P employee, could assist them in getting the powers that be at your office to become a paying sponsor to help support this wonderful resource? I know everyone appreciates any and all assistance in answering the questions posted here, but I do find it unfair for you to advertise your employer's products here, free, without them paying for the privilege. If you can, please, contact the appropriate people in your organization and promote Help Me Find to them so they can assist in keeping this site the premier rose resource it has become. Thank you! Kim Rupert
Also, the Mermaid Antique Climber gets about 10'-15' high with a width of 15'. Its color is cream to light yellow with a deep yellow center and about 5" blooms. Has a wonderful honey fragrance and is disease resistant, cold hardy and shade tolerant. It's also tolerant of poor soil conditions. It is considered a vigorous climber/rambler. You do have to train it to climb up a structure as it is lax and sprawling. Does not require pruning, light if any. Thorns are sharp, but there are not many. Hope this helps.
Thank you both for answering. I am in North Carolina zone 7b. I love ballerina its beautiful but wonder if it wouldn't be wise to plant it if it wants to be that big. Would it be a constant battle to keep it at the height I want? Mermaid sounds like a good choice as well. When I do settle on a rose to plant in those 2 spots should I get 1 rose for either side or 2 assuming that I picked either ballerina or mermaid that is...?
Thanks again both

My Dad, Frank C. Betts, 1st on the 3rd row. He passed 27 years ago [1985], I did not have electronic resources to research the facility back then. However, he had many slide [pictures] of his travels on the ship. I have many memories of how much his country meant to him. Others may be searching to see their loved ones who served the country.

Explaining Odds
Odds are a very important thing to take into consideration when engaging in sports related betting. Most probably already have a good idea of how odds work, but for those who don't, this article will provide a quick explanation.
Odds refer to the numbers that appear beside sports betting options, such as 1/10. In the case of 1/10 two very important things are communicated to the bet maker. The first is that the payout, if the bet is successful, would be a substantial amount. If the bet placed were $10, the payout would be a very good $100. In the world of sports bet making, this is an excellent payback amount. Consider that a bet of $100 would return $1,000, and so on.
But this brings us to the second very important thing that is communicated by the odds 1/10. The bookmaker, obviously, is not in the habit of giving away large sums of money. At least not without dude consideration and careful thought. So, it should also be kept in mind that the odds 1/10 also communicate the likelihood of the bet being successful. In the case of 1/10 odds, the bet is not perceived as a high probability, hence why the bookmaker is willing to offer such good payouts.
Risk Versus Reward
The above explanation is the very core of sports betting, and what makes it such an interesting form of entertainment. The bookmaker assigns odds based on an idea of a how an event or match will turn out. But, of course, the bookmaker is not psychic, and can do so only on statistics and available information. If the bookmaker sees a team as unlikely to win, but the team is, in fact, due for a comeback, it can be a great opportunity to put down a big put and cash in. The bet maker is also not psychic, however, and hence a game of risk versus reward is created.
Changing Odds
Odds can and will change unexpectedly, which is an unavoidable reality of the world of Australian sports betting, which is highly unpredictable. If a team's star player is suddenly taken out of the match, it cannot be expected that the bookmaker will keep previously assigned odds. The bookmaker will, of course, have to adjust the odds to suit this new development.
However, it is very important to keep in mind that bets placed on the team, up until that point, will pay out according to the previous odds, at the time the bet was placed. This can be both a blessing and a curse, and is often a point of much controversy. But, once again, the sports world being as unpredictable as it is, there is no fairer way for the bookmaker to do business.
This should give a newcomer to the world of sports betting an insight into the nature of odds, and how they are important to placing bets. There is a great deal more detailed information on odds freely available online. Either way, be sure to always bet smart and research decisions carefully before putting down and cash.

Two high scoring SEC teams meet on Saturday so gamblers might be making a college football bet on the over when Mississippi State hosts Arkansas.
The game is on ESPN and everyone loves to bet the over in a TV game. The Razorbacks are slight favorites in college football betting in what should be an exciting game to watch.
Arkansas -3, total 52.5 at Sbgglobal
The Razorbacks are road favorites in this contest since they have the high profile quarterback in Ryan Mallett. Another reason that Arkansas is favored is due in some part to Mississippi State getting routed last week by Alabama. The Bulldogs did not play well last week and neither Chris Relf nor Tyler Russell did much. The Bulldogs do have a good running back though in Vac Ballard who has rushed for 699 yards and 12 touchdowns.
Ryan Mallett
The Arkansas quarterback has thrown for 4,167 yards with 33 touchdowns this season. Running back Knile Davis has rushed for 901 yards and 10 touchdowns this season. Mallett has a good receiver in Greg Childs who has caught 82 balls for 1,097 yards and 12 touchdowns. Arkansas has averaged 37.9 points per game this season.
Mississippi State gave up 30 points last week to Alabama and it could be that the Bulldogs have hit the wall. Mississippi State may not have much success on defense this week either against the high scoring Hogs. The Bulldogs can score though as they are averaging 26.3 points and 374.8 yards per game.
Home Team Series
The home team has done very well in this series which is good news if you want to bet Mississippi State. The underdog is also a good bet as the dog has covered in 11 of the last 15. Normally that would point to a cover for Mississippi State but the Razorbacks are hot as they are 8-1 against the college football betting odds in their last 9 conference games. Betting over the total does look good with a college football bet as the Over is 5-0 in the Razorbacks last 5 games overall. In this series, four of the last five have gone over. ESPN picked this game for Saturday night and it looks like it should be competitive and high scoring.

Get Back Your Perfect Skin With The Correct Healthy skin RegimenDo you truly miss those occasions when you had an impeccable skin? Is your external appearance influenced by the variations like contamination, stress, and age? Consider the possibility that you become more acquainted with that your skin can at present look impeccable. We should know how we can have the correct healthy skin.
Purging your Skin is an Unquestionable requirement!
It doesn't make a difference which healthy skin mark you are utilizing; on the off chance that you are not doing purging right, the outcomes won't be seen. By and large, once you reach in your 20s you should begin utilizing chemical as indicated by your skin sort. Keep in mind once you develop, utilizing a face wash is sufficiently not. Influence purifying as a piece of your skin to mind schedule. While confront wash helps in expelling earth from the skin, chemical cleans your skin from inside. Without appropriate purging, no healthy skin items will be consumed by the skin.
Conditioning is Essential as well!
A large portion of us don't consider conditioning as critical. In the wake of purging, they apply cream which isn't right. When you are finished with purifying; now it is an ideal opportunity to apply a toner. At the season of purifying, your pores are open and it is imperative to close them. Conditioning standardizes the pore size and influences your skin to prepared for saturating. Utilize a toner of a rumored mark like Creativity which guarantees to offer the premium and compound free items. Take 3-4 drops on dry cotton and apply all over with delicate hands.
Sustain Your Skin with Lotion!
Presently your pores are back to their typical size and the skin is prepared for saturating. Try not to utilize lotion specifically in the wake of purifying. Pick a lotion as per your skin sort and apply it as prescribed. It is constantly better not to abuse the lotion. Applying it to the face without washing may prompt the unsafe result as the earth exists on the face which will stay with cream. So shun applying cream whenever a day without washing face. On the off chance that you require it, simply clean your countenances with water or wet wipes and after that put it all on the line.
Tail it Twice without Fall flat!
Typically, we begin our day with loads of energy and take fundamental healthy skin in the morning. By night, we feel minimal indiscreet and just stick to washing face. For an immaculate skin, it is important to take after all the three stages previously going to bed. It just takes several minutes yet is useful in longer run. Anybody can have an impeccable and sparkling skin with the correct healthy skin regimen.
Include Uncommon Healthy skin if Required!
On the off chance that you are over 30 years and have any healthy skin challenge, at that point you may include exceptional healthy skin items as a piece of your schedule. Continuously counsel a healthy skin master before utilizing these items. Having a go at anything or everything may prompt a dull and chafed skin. Trust just presumed brands and forgo exchanging magnificence items from time to time.
Prepare for a gentler and more youthful looking skin and parade it!

Bungie recently discussed the exotic weapon blueprint for The Taken King and something interesting came to light. As it turns out, Year One weapons are still hanging out it Destiny.
However, Bungie has introduced new designs for Year One exotic weapons. One example is the Suros Regime which now has a grey and red color scheme.
Executive producer Mark Noseworthy, senior design lead Tyson Green, and community manager David "DeeJ" Dague, spoke about old exotic weapons and said that some of them will have new perks from the get go. On top of that, some new abilities are going to be available for select weapons.
Players will use legendary marks on weapons to upgrades, but not every Year One weapon can be upgraded. Also, damage stats for some exotic weapons are readjusted, mostly toned-down.
Destiny The Taken King is a premium expansion which is said to be twice the size of The Dark Below. The Taken King will release on September 15 and will cost players $40. Plenty of new content is being added including new weapons, missions, Raids etch.
Are you planning on buying The Taken King? Let us know what you think about Bungie's approach to expansions, in the comments.

This article first appeared in auditionoracle.com
A colleague recently attended a workshop on singing auditions and working in rehearsal. Part of the day's exercises was a series of mock auditions in which participants would sing to the group as if in an audition situation, so that they could get feedback on how they came across, not only through their singing but also their general presentation.
One of the suggestions from the panel was that on occasion it may feel appropriate to come dressed in a manner pertinent to the role on offer. Taking this advice at its word, one of the participants came dressed in costume, including a hat. This enterprising initiative was welcomed by the panel – although it was noted that the hat actually obscured the performer's face, on balance not an ideal situation for a first-time encounter.
In general, the 'rule' (there's no rule, just good sense!) for dressing for auditions is to be comfortable so that you can sing well. In America, the idea of actually coming dressed in a manner which shows that you are already thinking about fitting into the role on offer is more accepted. The culture of competition (in the business sense) is more established and this may lend itself to this trend.
The problem is, of course, that you may have the director and designer in the room who have their own ideas for a character's look, which is immediately at odds with what you have decided to wear. Even if you have got reliable information about the direction in which the production design is going to go, this is still a risky business. The only way to dress for a role is to wear clothes that are directly relevant to the character as represented in the original text (or libretto) and of the period in question. Clearly, hats are difficult – obviously, a mask is not appropriate. Above all, wearing something distracting is going to be counterproductive. Make-up may have the same concealing-vs-enhancing issues; go easy on the eye shadow.
Don't be put off though! If you feel comfortable – that word again – in the costume in which you have imagined performing and you feel that it is appropriate (donkey's ears for Bottom, etc.) you may have a great opportunity to make a strong impression on a panel. Fulfill the promise of your own conviction. And sing well!

Lily Collins Believes Guys & Girls Can Just Be Friends
Lily Collins dons a plaid shirt while dropping by celeb hotspot Andy LeCompte salon on Monday (October 27) in West Hollywood, Calif.
The 25-year-old actress just came back to the States after promoting her new film Love, Rosie overseas with co-star Sam Claflin.
PHOTOS: Check out the latest pics of Lily Collins
Lily recently chatted about whether she thinks guys and girls can just be friends.
"When you're attracted to someone as a friend, you're attracted for multiple reasons that far exceed sexuality. Sometimes that love and affection can get confusing. You wonder, 'Am I attracted to this person because I want to be with them, or is it because I just really like hanging out with them?' You have to try to decipher where those feelings are coming from," Lily shared to the press.
She added, "My conclusion is that it's totally possible to be in a relationship while not in a 'relationship'."
FYI: Lily is wearing a Rails button down, Paige denim, and Elizabeth and James sunglasses.

Rather than a military invasion or a strengthened embargo against Haiti, why not consider the United State - in cooperation with other countries - encourage and help as many Haitians who want to leave Haiti?
A large and rapid depletion of Haitians would have a greater effect than any embargo.
To effect this plan, ships of the United States and other participating nations could be anchored at a legal distance from Haiti and put aboard their ships those fleeing nations in their makeshift boats.

The GKVP team has participated in their first competition of the year. They went to Gunslingers Dos: The Fiesta Continues, which is a wind tunnel competition that took place at the iFly tunnel in Austin, Texas from May 8th-9th. The team arrived in Austin on the 7th and headed directly to the wind tunnel to test it out and see what the ideal wind speed to fly at was. After flying some formations and figuring out the wind speeds, the team was ready for the competition the following day.
The team competed in the vertical formation skydiving event on May 8th against two other teams. At 1:30 pm, all of the teams attending the briefing for the day got to draw for all 8 rounds of the competition. Right away the team got to work and started engineering the formations. Once 3:30 pm came around, the competition started! Each team is given one minute to fly, but only scored on 35 seconds. All of the teams knocked out the first round and did very well. But there's no time to relax, because now it's time to walk the dive for the next round. This process is repeated after every round until the last one is completed.
The competition is over for VFS, and the final scores will be released the following day at the award ceremony, the team can finally relax after a full day of hard work. The competition comes to an end on Saturday May 9th, and all of the competitors meet at a local restaurant for the awards. GKVP won second place with an 18.625 average. SDC Core took first place and third place went to team 4 Non-Blondes.
Not too long after Gunslingers, the team was scheduled to compete in The Bay Brawl at iFly San Francisco, May 17th. With only a week between the two competitions, the team trains hard to keep up the pace. The team flies out and arrives in San Francisco two nights prior. The very next day, the team flies in iFly San Francisco for the first time to get an idea for the wind speed and to get used to the size of the tunnel for the competition. After flying, the team feels confident about the following day. Sunday comes around and the team heads to the tunnel early to start walking the dive pool. Once 5 pm rolls around, the competition starts. The team has committed the first dive to memory and starts off slow and smooth right out the gates. For the first 2 rounds, the Golden Knights are in last, but following close behind the second place team. As the rounds continue, the team starts pulling ahead and gaining a strong foothold in second place. The team finished the competition with a 17.8 point average, claiming second place! GKVP continues to train hard for upcoming competitions and greatly appreciates everyone's support.
