1: Take Tampa Bay Rays (+110) on the ML against Seattle Mariners risking 3% to win 3.30%.
After an uncharacteristically poor start to the season, Chris Archer is back in his All-Star form. He's now had 3 outstanding starts in a row and has a miniscule 0.96 ERA in that span! Archer is a crafty hurler that needs to be in the right groove to perform well and now that he's regained his swagger, he's hard to stop. He'll also take confidence from the reminder that previous visits to Safeco Field have gone very well for him as evident by an impressive 1.64 ERA in two previous trips to Seattle! That success has largely been made possible by the fact that he's baffled the Mariners' most two dangerous lefties, Robinson Cano and Kyle Seager. Those two home-run threat bats are still hitless when facing Archer despite 26 combined at-bats against him! To say he's had their number would be an understatement. If he can keep the two southpaws off-base, he should be able to limit the damage that a guy like Nelson Cruz might do.
Taijuan Walker is an impressive 23-year old with a very bright future. Not much negative can be said about him but in this particular outing, he is unlikely to be at his sharpest. That's because he had to leave the previous game after just 2 innings due to neck spasms! It was his worst start of the season as he gave up 3 runs (two homers) in just two frames and while he seems to be healthy again going into this contest, he's probably not 100%. Having a start cut that short could also impact his conditioning in this matchup as he may get tired earlier than he normally does. Walker, like Archer, is a very talented young pitcher when on top of his game but all signs point toward Archer being in better shape this afternoon.
There are some ex-Mariners in this current Tampa team and we don't believe they'll want to mark their return to Seattle with an ugly 0-3 sweep! Brad Miller and Logan Morrison played their trade at Safeco Field and have a point to prove today. The two lefties also know a few things about Walker and his particular tendencies as former teammates. Given that the Rays have already lost the first two games of this series, we see them saving face by avoiding the sweep and putting in a quality performance. The M's on the other hand have already secured their 8th series win of the season and are stop the AL West division. They might just have a false sense of security going into this matchup and overlook their opponents. Seattle is a team that can get a bit complacent after a winning streak and won't be as motivated as Tampa Bay in our opinion. Kevin Cash's squad can go back to a .500 record with a 'W' this afternoon and we expect them to do so, especially since they've the day off tomorrow and can give their best relievers an extended outing if necessary.
2: Take Texas Rangers (-132) on the ML against Chicago White Sox risking 3.96% to win 3%.
This is the finale of a 3-game set as the Chicago White Sox close their series with the Texas Rangers. The White Sox managed to take the series opener on Monday, 8-4 in extra innings and it appeared as if last night's matchup was in danger of being postponed, however after a delay due to weather, the White Sox scored a bunch of runs before the Rangers rallied and shocked them by scoring an impressive 7 runs in the 8th inning to pull off an improbable 13-11 victory! There is no doubt that the Rangers’ confidence will be high heading into this contest this afternoon after such a dramatic comeback. Meanwhile, the White Sox have got to be absolutely crushed after losing last night's game the way that they did. Some of the players will still be feeling the hangover effects when they wake up this morning and that could cause issues with this game being played on such a short turnaround, in the afternoon.
Starting this game for the Rangers this afternoon is lefty ace Cole Hamels. Hamels is off to a spectacular start to the season as he is 4-0 with a 2.68 ERA. He is coming off a strong start in his last outing, giving up just a single hit over 7 innings against a strong Detroit Tigers lineup. Hamels also struck out a season high 9 batters in that outing. The southpaw has evolved his game this season, changing his pitch speed more often and is using a lot more pitches in his arsenal. He is firing at the plate as 73 of his 113 pitches were thrown for strikes against Detroit. The White Sox have historically struggled with left handed pitchers and Hamels is certainly one of the best! Chicago has averaged only 3 runs against lefties this season! Hamels has had 2 career starts against the Pale Hose and is an impressive 1-0 with a 2.25 ERA and 15 strikeouts and just one walk in those outings!
The White Sox will counter with former Cincinnati Red, Mat Latos this afternoon. Like his counterpart, Latos is having an impressive season and also comes into this contest undefeated. The issue here is that we do not believe that Latos can sustain this type of performance. In fact, it's starting to look like hitters are catching up to him recently. Latos allowed just two total runs in his first four starts to the season but has given up four runs in each of his past two trips to the mound while not lasting more than five innings in each. We believe he is starting to regress and that could spell trouble this afternoon against a powerful Rangers' lineup that is seeing the ball extremely well at the moment.
The mental stability of the White Sox bullpen could also come into question heading into this contest. After blowing the game last night and giving up 7 runs in the 8th inning, it will be interesting to see how they respond at the plate. With Latos not making is past the 5th inning in each of his last few starts, the bullpen could be called upon early in this contest. White sox closer, David Robertson has not had much success at keep this Rangers' lineup at bay as both of his blown saves this season have come against Texas. The Rangers enjoy a strong home field advantage in Arlington and with this being the rubber match between the two teams, we expect momentum to carry over from last night and Texas come away with the series ending victory.
The Rangers are 9-1 in Hamels' last 10 home starts!
White Sox are 18-27 as a road underdog of +125 to +150 over the last 3 seasons.
Rangers are a perfect 3-0 as a home favorite of -125 to -150 this season.
Hamels has won his last 11 decisions and can match a franchise record with another ‘W’.

If you’re terrified of going to the dentist because of past bad experiences or you’re just afraid of the pain and discomfort involved with the dental procedure, sedation dentistry San Jose may be the answer for you. With both oral and IV sedation techniques, you can virtually sleep through your dental visit and for the most part, remember very little if nothing at all about the dental procedure itself.
Also referred to as relaxation dentistry or sleep dentistry, the sedation dentistry procedure is administered by San Jose dentist Dr. Heidari by giving you sedative drugs that keep you relaxed and anxiety-free throughout your dental visit. You can become so relaxed that you’ll have very little to no recollection of the dental procedure itself. This type of procedure is well suited if you are particularly afraid of being put under with general anesthesia.
The sedative drugs Dr. Heidari will use range from the basic nitrous oxide and local anesthetics, to oral and Intravenous tranquilizers. From your perspective, a complex dental procedure that would take hours to perform, will feel like it happened in a matter of minutes. With that, a procedure that would generally require numerous visits to the office, can now be done in just one or two appointments.
Because sedation dentistry will diminish your anxiety and stress levels for an immediate dental procedure, it will also increase the chances of you returning for follow-up care. This is one of the most important considerations because those who fear the dentist are likely to avoid the dentist resulting in very poor overall dental health.
If you or someone you know is afraid of the dentist, call our San Jose, California office at 408.999.0444!

As a huge fan of James A. Moore’s Seven Forges series, I was beyond excited to get my hands on an advanced reading copy of his new series. Now, I won’t lie: At first, every page, every new character, every new adventure I read in this new book made me wish I was reading another Seven Forges story. This wasn’t because The Last Sacrifice was boring or less compelling, but because I just love that other sword and sorcery series so much. As I continued on with the novel however, I soon grew to appreciate this tale just as much; the narrative fast paced, inventive, and infused with enough horrific elements to make this one wild ride!
Everything gets rolling when a tough-as-nails mercenary named Brogan returns home to his family. Killer he may be, but Brogan loves his wife and family more than anything. So when he dismounts at his abandoned house, he is immediately alarmed. When he is told by a neighbor that the Grakhul — immortal servants of the gods — took his loved ones away, he is terrified to the core, for the Grakhul only take people they intend to offer to the gods as human sacrifices!
In spite of his overwhelming fear and a life time of awe of the Grakhul, Brogan puts together a rescue party, determined to steal back his family from certain death. The whispered fears from his companions that an attack on the Grakhul is an act of defiance against the gods of no concern to our mercenary. What difference does it make to him if the whole world suffers if he is made to live without his loved ones.
Immediately, innumerable ripples spread across the world from Brogan’s actions. People and places unknown to our bereaved husband and father engulfed in the rising tide of divine wrath. The world itself beginning to teeter upon the edge of ruin, as the anger of the divine pours out upon it!
I hope that description peaks your interest, because The Last Sacrifice is a sword and sorcery tale not to be missed. Another genre blender from James A. Moore, this story pushes the normal limits of standard sword and sorcery, creating a unique and addictive concoction.
First, Mr. Moore provides a heaping dose of horror with his fantasy. Not gore or gloom like so many grimdark offerings, but true horror elements of brooding tension and suspense, terrifying creatures, and skin crawling scenes of good and bad people meeting their end. All of this so perfectly integrated into the mix that they never seem out of place.
Second, the characters are much more than cardboard cut out good guys and bad guys. Each person here is portrayed in their own shade of grey. Good guys do questionable deeds, while villains’ actions are not always evil. Each person given an opportunity to showcase (even if only briefly) the “why” of who and what they are.
Third, while there is action, combat, and supernatural elements galore, the real focus of the narrative is the plot itself. Sure, an author being concerned with the plot isn’t anything unusual, but, in my experience, too many sword and sorcery stories have suffered from the plot being subservient to the action, which might have been fine decades ago when fantasy was more along the lines of pulp fiction, but it does not work today. Readers today expect quality fantasy stories, demanding more from their reading experience than merely a muscle-bound hero with mighty sinews throwing a terrified maiden over his shoulder, as he fights off magical horrors. And Mr. Moore understands this, delivering compelling individual stories along with an epic, overarching adventure tale.
As for deficiencies in The Last Sacrifice, I would point to the over abundance of point of view characters. I personally found there to be too many of them. So many, in fact, I never felt as if they were getting enough page time from their creator. Sure, they all did get repeated turns in the spotlight, but the duration was too short for me to build a strong bond with any of them, which meant I found myself not as emotionally involved in their lives as I would have wished to be. Others might find this a minor issue however, but I felt I should, at least, mention it.
With The Last Sacrifice, James A. Moore has triumphed yet again, delivering a modern sword and sorcery tale to delight old and new fans of the genre. With its intriguing premise, stellar cast of characters, and flavorful horror elements, this is damn good stuff. So good in fact, any reader, whatever genre they prefer, can’t go wrong with picking this novel up and letting themselves be swept up in this epic struggle.

in spite of his overwhelming fear and a life time of awe of the grakhul, brogan puts together a rescue party, determined to steal back his family from certain death. the whispered fears from his companions that an attack on the grakhul is an act of defiance against the gods of no concern to our mercenary. what difference does it make to him if the whole world suffers if he is made to live without his loved ones.
immediately, innumerable ripples spread across the world from brogan’s actions. people and places unknown to our bereaved husband and father engulfed in the rising tide of divine wrath. the world itself beginning to teeter upon the edge of ruin, as the anger of the divine pours out upon it!
i hope that description peaks your interest, because the last sacrifice is a sword and sorcery tale not to be missed. another genre blender from james a. moore, this story pushes the normal limits of standard sword and sorcery, creating a unique and addictive concoction.
first, mr. moore provides a heaping dose of horror with his fantasy. not gore or gloom like so many grimdark offerings, but true horror elements of brooding tension and suspense, terrifying creatures, and skin crawling scenes of good and bad people meeting their end. all of this so perfectly integrated into the mix that they never seem out of place.
second, the characters are much more than cardboard cut out good guys and bad guys. each person here is portrayed in their own shade of grey. good guys do questionable deeds, while villains’ actions are not always evil. each person given an opportunity to showcase (even if only briefly) the “why” of who and what they are.
third, while there is action, combat, and supernatural elements galore, the real focus of the narrative is the plot itself. sure, an author being concerned with the plot isn’t anything unusual, but, in my experience, too many sword and sorcery stories have suffered from the plot being subservient to the action, which might have been fine decades ago when fantasy was more along the lines of pulp fiction, but it does not work today. readers today expect quality fantasy stories, demanding more from their reading experience than merely a muscle-bound hero with mighty sinews throwing a terrified maiden over his shoulder, as he fights off magical horrors. and mr. moore understands this, delivering compelling individual stories along with an epic, overarching adventure tale.
as for deficiencies in the last sacrifice, i would point to the over abundance of point of view characters. i personally found there to be too many of them. so many, in fact, i never felt as if they were getting enough page time from their creator. sure, they all did get repeated turns in the spotlight, but the duration was too short for me to build a strong bond with any of them, which meant i found myself not as emotionally involved in their lives as i would have wished to be. others might find this a minor issue however, but i felt i should, at least, mention it.
with the last sacrifice, james a. moore has triumphed yet again, delivering a modern sword and sorcery tale to delight old and new fans of the genre. with its intriguing premise, stellar cast of characters, and flavorful horror elements, this is damn good stuff. so good in fact, any reader, whatever genre they prefer, can’t go wrong with picking this novel up and letting themselves be swept up in this epic struggle.

Working on time based application, when reset the device and launch our application instant, we are getting wrong date and time instead of current date and time.
Output is "2019-01-09T02:59Z" instead of "2019-02-12T10:42Z", showing approximate 34 days previous static date every time.
But if we restart the device and launch the application after internet connection, then we are getting correct date and time.
Please suggest the solution for this problem.
There is no solution. The box doesn't have a battery backed-up RTC. I doesn't know the correct date/time until it establishes an Internet connection and contacts an NTP server. If your app can't operate without the correct time, you either have to wait for Internet connection to be established or exit if the connection hasn't been established. You can't rely on roDateTime unless the box is able to contact the Roku NTP server.
Perhaps you can check for the date/time, and if it is the default date you receive when there isn't an internet connection available, simply not use the data and check it again later in the application.
Although why your device would require the internet but not be able to access the date/time server, sounds like a critical flaw in your internet routing service/gateway/proxy maybe?
Thanks, we will look into internet routing service.
If your content list json or xml is generated in realtime on the server via a script, you could have the server provide the time in that file when it is sent to the Roku (as a time from epoch in seconds), or simply run a php script on the server to return the data separately, and then you could start a timer service on the Roku and add both together to get the time without using the Roku time server. Just another 'solution'.

Watched the first episode of the new Dr. Who series last night (no, I’m not behind the times. VHS is just another form of time-travel). Not bad at all. The doctor was a lot funnier than I remember from series past, and I was glad to see that they have retained the ‘cheap props’ look from the original. It still has a very English flavour, I’m sure Douglas Adams would approve.
In related news, apparently a recently-stolen Dalek has been returned safely.

Until last month, we all expected the Fed to increase the fed funds rate when the unemployment rate fell below 6.5 percent. Right after last month's Fed meeting, they released a statement saying the 6.5 percent level shouldn't be a threshold that will trigger a higher fed funds rate.
The Fed also released a forecast showing a majority of Fed Committee Members don't expect an increase in the fed funds rate until 2015. This means we won't see higher CD rates, savings rates, and money market rates until sometime in 2015. Below are lists of the best CD rates available right now with terms ranging from 3 months to 5 years.

Possibly the movie was perceived by this captive audience as an unaccountably dour and violent version of Walt Disney’s Dumbo. But, however the CIA’s fervent call for an anti-Soviet revolt (with ‘help from the outside’) was received by the world, it was rendered moot some eighteen months after Animal Farm’s European release by the much encouraged and subsequently abandoned Hungarian uprising.

I changed the Safe Vision app to be free in the end of March. After speaking to an expert on Clarity.fm I decided to let people to watch videos in pre-approved channels for free. If the parent wants to add a channel for their child that requires premium subscription of $23.49 per year.
Acquisition – a parent installed the app and signed up for an account.
Activation – child watched at least 10 videos on the same or the next day after parent installed the app.
Retention – child watched at least 5 videos 2 or 3 days after parent installed the app.
Immediately the number of people that install the app and register for an account (acquisitions) jumped up.
The week starting March 19 had a record number of sales: 13. After that sales dropped to about 4 per week.
I’m a bit at loss why did this happen. One clue is that 5 out of those 13 parents that paid on that week signed up before March 15. Also I tried to let parents to unlock one channel for free but then I reverted that change.
I noticed that many parents would install the app, search for some channel, try to unlock it and hit the Paywall screen. On that screen the app asked them to purchase premium subscription in order to unlock the channel. A lot of parents would not continue using the app and move on after that.

2004-10-31 Application filed by Calleja Michael J. filed Critical Calleja Michael J.
2005-09-26 Assigned to SAFETY SYSTEMS, LLC reassignment SAFETY SYSTEMS, LLC ASSIGNMENT OF ASSIGNORS INTEREST (SEE DOCUMENT FOR DETAILS). Assignors: CALLEJA, MICHAEL J.
A pallet rack safety net system comprises two parallel horizontal wire ropes that are stretched along the top and bottom edges of a shelf opening. A pair of hung left and right screens of flexible netting are attached between the top and bottom wire ropes so that they can be horizontally separated at the middle of the shelf opening. The inside vertical edges of each screen are finished with a metal bar and a clasp so the screens can be latched together at the middle. The outside left and right edges of the screens are secured to the outside of the shelf opening. If used on a top shelf that has no supports at each side of the opening, a pair of support posts are included that hold aloft the top horizontal wire rope. A network of stays and guys are used to reinforce each such post.
The present invention relates to material-handling systems, and more particularly to safety netting that contains product on overhead shelves and that protect workers and customers below in the aisles.
Shelves and racks are a convenient way to store items, and stored many levels high such can maximize floor space. A typical warehouse retail store like The Home Depot has pallet racks that are two, three, and four levels high. Heavy items, like backup store inventory on a pallet, is placed and fetched from high above by a forklift.
Heavy items placed ten to twenty feet high above aisles in pallet racks and on shelves can present a significant and not-so-rare personal injury risk. Shaking, bumping, and poorly stacked items can come tumbling down and hurt people below, or at a minimum damage the product.
Not surprisingly, a number of different devices and methods have evolved to address these problems. The Law too has entered the picture with OSHA regulations, and personal injury lawsuits. New company procedures, union work rules, and plain common sense now dictate that an effective restraint, barrier, or guard system be installed on the higher shelves and rack to prevent falling debris.
As could be expected, some methods and devices are better than others. Conventional safety products can be expensive to buy, and difficult to work with or install. A simple netting secured all around the shelf opening can be effective if the netting is strong enough and secured well. But the way the netting is secured and constructed can mean opening the net to access the shelf is made very difficult, in some cases requiring a technician to climb high above and use hand tools to open and/or close the net.
Sinco/Sala (Middletown, Conn.), InCord (East Haddam, Conn.), and others market rack guard systems use different kinds of barriers and attachment hardware. For example, Sinco/Sala uses a nylon mesh that is stretched inside a perimeter frame of taught wire rope. So-called EZ-clips are used to attach the netting to the wire rope frame. InCord markets their SURE-GARD™ synthetic mesh that is able to stretch under load. A variety of mesh-size openings are offered for a range of contained item types and sizes.
A MEZZNET-DEFENSE-SYSTEM™ is marketed by BayNets (East Haddam, Conn.) that raises and lowers flexible netting hung from a rod that is guided up and down by a pair of side posts. Open-sided mezzanines with these systems are accessed by operating a cable and pulley system that connects to the rod and runs inside the two side posts. The cable and pulleys can be manually cranked, or powered by an electric motor. BayNets' advertising literature suggests that these systems meet federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) fall-protection standards.
Briefly, a pallet rack safety netting embodiment of the present invention comprises two parallel horizontal wire ropes that are stretched along the top and bottom edges of a shelf opening. A pair of hung left and right screens of flexible netting are attached between the top and bottom wire ropes so that they can be horizontally separated at the middle of the shelf opening. The inside vertical edges of each screen are finished with a metal bar and a clasp so the screens can be latched together at the middle. The outside left and right edges of the screens are secured to the outside of the shelf opening. If used on a top shelf that has no supports at each side of the opening, a pair of support posts are included that hold aloft the top horizontal wire rope. A network of stays and guys are used to reinforce each such post.
An advantage of the present invention is that a safety netting is provided that is effective.
Another advantage of the present invention is that a safety netting is provided that is easy to install.
A further advantage of the present invention is that safety netting systems are provided that are simple to operate.
FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the safety netting system of FIG. 1 with the addition of guy wire stays that reinforce the posts above the top shelf of the pallet rack.
FIG. 1 illustrates a safety netting system embodiment of the present invention, referred to herein by the reference numeral 100. The safety netting system 100, in this example, comprises three screened sections, 101-103, that are attached to a pallet rack 104. Such combination would be used in an ordinary warehouse, or in a warehouse store like The Home Depot. The principle purpose of the safety netting system 100 is to keep objects on the overhead shelves of the pallet rack 104 from falling down onto the floor, for whatever reason. Each of the three sections of the safety netting system 100 is exemplified by section 101, which includes a top horizontally strung wire rope 105 and a bottom strung wire rope 106. A left-screen bar 108 and a right-screen bar 110 are configured to slide along the wire ropes and close at the middle with a snap latch 112.
A left screen 114 is fixed at its left edge to the framework of the pallet rack 104. Similarly, a right screen 116 is fixed at its right edge at the opposite side of the shelf opening to the pallet rack framework. The screens comprise flexible netting of nylon rope, chain link fencing, rigid vertical links, etc. A set of posts 118, 120, and 122 are added to the top of the pallet rack 104 to hold aloft the top wire rope 105. Each such post may be guyed or stayed like the main mast of a sailboat if the vertical frame members of the pallet rack 104 cannot be supplied as one solid piece of box-beam or I-beam steel. If the loads to be secured on the top shelves are especially heavy and dangerous, it is preferable to guy and stay the posts 118, 120, and 120 in every instance.
FIGS. 2A and 2B illustrate how the screens of system 100, for example, are latched together (FIG. 2A) and separated (FIG. 2B). A top and bottom pair of parallel wire ropes 201 and 202 are stretched taut between a rigid pair of vertical support posts 203 and 204. A left and a right draw screen 206 and 208 are made of flexible netting, e.g., made of nylon rope. A number of loops top and bottom allow the screens to slide left and right on the wire ropes. The left screen 206 is secured with wire loops or hooks to the left post 203. And the right screen 208 is secured at its right edge with wire loops or hooks to the right post 204. A rigid left bar 210 finishes the right edge of the left screen 206. A rigid right bar 212 similarly finishes the left edge of the right screen 208. These rigid bars help close up a gap between them and the screens when a latch 214 is secured.
FIG. 3 shows how a vertical post can be reinforced and stiffened. In a rack storage system 300 similar to pallet system 100 in FIG. 1, a pair of wire stays 302 and 304 crisscross one another from anchor plates 306, 308, and 310. A back stay 312 further supports a vertical post 314. Each similar post preferably receives an identical combination of wire stays, anchor plates, and back stays. These then all resist any tendency of the posts to fold or distort under load.
a clasp for latching and unlatching the left and right bars together for securing and accessing objects stored behind the screens.
a clasp for latching and unlatching the left and right bars together for securing and accessing objects stored on said shelf behind the screens.
a pair of left and right posts for extending above a top shelf and for providing mechanical support to the top rope.
said outside edges of each screen are fixed to the left and right posts.
the screens comprise flexible netting stretched between the top and bottom ropes.

a pallet rack safety net system comprises two parallel horizontal wire ropes that are stretched along the top and bottom edges of a shelf opening. a pair of hung left and right screens of flexible netting are attached between the top and bottom wire ropes so that they can be horizontally separated at the middle of the shelf opening. the inside vertical edges of each screen are finished with a metal bar and a clasp so the screens can be latched together at the middle. the outside left and right edges of the screens are secured to the outside of the shelf opening. if used on a top shelf that has no supports at each side of the opening, a pair of support posts are included that hold aloft the top horizontal wire rope. a network of stays and guys are used to reinforce each such post.
the present invention relates to material-handling systems, and more particularly to safety netting that contains product on overhead shelves and that protect workers and customers below in the aisles.
shelves and racks are a convenient way to store items, and stored many levels high such can maximize floor space. a typical warehouse retail store like the home depot has pallet racks that are two, three, and four levels high. heavy items, like backup store inventory on a pallet, is placed and fetched from high above by a forklift.
heavy items placed ten to twenty feet high above aisles in pallet racks and on shelves can present a significant and not-so-rare personal injury risk. shaking, bumping, and poorly stacked items can come tumbling down and hurt people below, or at a minimum damage the product.
not surprisingly, a number of different devices and methods have evolved to address these problems. the law too has entered the picture with osha regulations, and personal injury lawsuits. new company procedures, union work rules, and plain common sense now dictate that an effective restraint, barrier, or guard system be installed on the higher shelves and rack to prevent falling debris.
as could be expected, some methods and devices are better than others. conventional safety products can be expensive to buy, and difficult to work with or install. a simple netting secured all around the shelf opening can be effective if the netting is strong enough and secured well. but the way the netting is secured and constructed can mean opening the net to access the shelf is made very difficult, in some cases requiring a technician to climb high above and use hand tools to open and/or close the net.
sinco/sala (middletown, conn.), incord (east haddam, conn.), and others market rack guard systems use different kinds of barriers and attachment hardware. for example, sinco/sala uses a nylon mesh that is stretched inside a perimeter frame of taught wire rope. so-called ez-clips are used to attach the netting to the wire rope frame. incord markets their sure-gard™ synthetic mesh that is able to stretch under load. a variety of mesh-size openings are offered for a range of contained item types and sizes.
a mezznet-defense-system™ is marketed by baynets (east haddam, conn.) that raises and lowers flexible netting hung from a rod that is guided up and down by a pair of side posts. open-sided mezzanines with these systems are accessed by operating a cable and pulley system that connects to the rod and runs inside the two side posts. the cable and pulleys can be manually cranked, or powered by an electric motor. baynets' advertising literature suggests that these systems meet federal occupational safety and health administration (osha) fall-protection standards.

In philosophy, systems theory and the sciences, emergence is the way complex systems and patterns arise out of a multiplicity or relatively simple interactions. To come forth into view as if from obscurity, a ship emerging from the fog. To watch a painting emerge from the canvas through a series of seemingly haphazard brush strokes, vague and ghostly at first, precise and refined at the finish is a magical experience.
It is important not to overwork, or “kill” a painting. The work that is met with the strongest response is often that which seemed to happen on its own with minimal conscious effort on my part. This can be frustrating when a belabored work goes unnoticed while one that took little time and effort is praised and admired. I have to constantly remind myself to get out of my own way and allow the painting to emerge. The technique I use when painting is called site-size. This tradition extends back through the French and British Schools to masters such as Titian, Rubens, Van Dyck and Velázquez. Its ultimate source lies in the theory and practice of Leonardo da Vinci. I studied this classical method in Florence, Italy, at the Charles Cecil Studios for 4 years and it changed my approach to painting and drawing. Site-size is a means of accurately representing nature while maintaining a loose and naturalistic quality in the work.

are the 2018 Devils the best in school history?
i was hoping you would weigh in on this topic...oh and i betcha Tyrus would agree with you about Chaz too. I think this team would mercy rule most any other team in the state at any classification......i said "Most" any other, so before someone on here throws maryville or oakland at me, remember that.....and yes, i think this team would mercy rule alcoa...just because i think alcoa would have no hope of stopping this offense and i dont think alcoa's offense could say the same.....covington shut them down most of the game and i didnt think anyone would do that.
another tough NC schedule for us again. hope we pick up another good one to replace pisgaah....cant beleive they "chit the bed" in their post season this year...i was pulling for them to get a state title......as for us....the Locomotive cranks back up in late January, so everyone else has a month and a half....ish....to play on the tracks, then it will be time to get off the tracks again, cause here comes that big Greene Locomotive machine, with a HAMMER leading the way .
that was my original thought too, but "Burley" is what built Greeneville dont ya think?
Let me nip all this in the bud once and for all. I probably shouldnt have made the "life lesson" remark in my original post so, to that I appologize to coach Hookfin, should he stumble across this stuff. Secondly, sure, kids say stuff they shouldnt and i was no different. Heck Im half a century old and still say stupid things ( see life lessons remark). I guess i have just been conditioned to think everyone should say "thank you" when a compliment or well wishes are handed out.As far as the F U M F'ers comment, as i stated before, I'm standing my gound on that one. In my opinion it was wrong, but that's it....no harm no foul, i was just pointing out an observation of mine during the day. Maybe I should have just kept my opinion to myself, but as most people know, I have no filter and Im usually going to say what's on my mind, right wrong or indifferent. My "life lessons'' comment was made at the moment i was was typing my original post and at the time, it was what came to mind, based on the experience i was referencing. I certainly dont think those kids are "Taught" to ignore people or to ignore people who are wishing them luck, it just took me by surprise and stuck with me for a while so i said what was on my mind at that moment. Much like many issues and many incidents in life, ive had several days to think about it and to redirect my thoughts on it. That's why I'm making this final post on the matter. AGAIN, best of luck to the Tcat players, coaches, parents, staff and everyone involved with that program moving forward. Please accept my humble appology for making a false assumption about what is being taught by the Haywood coaches. Merry Christmas, Happy new year and hope to see you all in Cookeville again next year.
