A unique look at how to groom your offensive line for a high-tempo offensive philosophy!
with AJ Blazek;North Dakota State Offensive Line Coach; former Rutgers University Assistant Coach/Offensive Line;former Western Illinois Offensive Line Coach/Run Game Coordinator for Western Illinois;Graduate Assistant at the University of Iowa (where he was a 2x All-Big Ten Lineman)
The traditional way of running an offense has changed; it's a lot of no-huddle, fast pace and signaling-in plays. Getting each position group to play at this tempo can be difficult. If you want an offense that can push the pace and wear a defense down, your offensive linemen have to be sharp and in shape. See how AJ Blazek gets his offensive lineman ready, both mentally and physically, to play and practice at an up-tempo pace.
Blazek explains what he implements during the off-season and preseason to help build for the regular season. Using video, he illustrates how he conditions his players without making it seem like conditioning. He uses competitions and different ways to move the body to get his players into the required shape for top-notch performance. You'll see 12 drills, including the mat drills that teach toughness, competitiveness, and the mental approach to the game.
Why Run Up-Tempo Offense?
You will learn the benefits of playing up-tempo offense as opposed to a traditional offensive system. Benefits include:
Good Lineman Technique - The Difference
Coach Blazek talks about "the difference" and how he can tell if an offensive lineman has good technique or not. You will see how having thumbs up, elbows in and wrists together is such an important part of developing your offensive line skills. Additionally, Coach Blazek discusses:
Drills and Mentality
Coach Blazek gives you 12 drills that create offensive lineman who use their hands well and utilize drive techniques while playing up-tempo. He builds on all the key elements for an offensive lineman, starting with stance, hands, and drive. You'll see:
Once linemen have the blocking basics learned, Coach Blazek covers the different types of runs they use.
Coach Blazek gives you the tools you need to make sure your offensive line is mentally and physically able to play in an up-tempo offense. Whether it be by using the difference mat or bag drills, everything shown will help you develop your offensive line into an elite group!

The Journal of the Canadian Academic Accounting
Association announces the
12th CAR Conference
November 1-2, 1997
Submissions are invited for the 12th annual CAR conference,
to be held November 1-2, 1997, in any area of accounting,
auditing, or tax research. The submission deadline
is May 1, 1997. Papers received after that date will be
treated as normal submissions to CAR. Selection of papers
for the conference will be based on a review undertaken by
members of the Editorial Board of Contemporary Accounting
Research. Discussants for each paper will be selected on
their expertise.
Submission of a manuscript to the conference also constitutes
a submission to CAR. Therefore conference submissions
should follow CAR's editorial guidelines. These require
submission in quadruplicate, with a cheque payable
to CAR/CAAA in the amount of $50 for members of the
CAAA ($100 for nonmembers), along with any relevant research
materials. While acceptance of a paper for inclusion
in the conference is generally followed by publication in
CAR, the ultimate disposition of each manuscript depends
on the normal review procedures employed by the journal.
Authors will be notified of the decision regarding the conference
agenda by September 1, 1997. Notwithstanding the
decision on the conference, author(s) will be notified of the
outcome of the editorial process for publication in CAR in
normal course.
Submission should be directed to the CAR office located at
2-32B Business Building, University of Alberta, Edmonton,

There are no shortage of peer-to-peer (P2P) payment apps on the market, but Apple now wants you to be able to send money through a simple text message.
The tech giant announced at its Worldwide Developers Conference that iMessage and Siri users would be able to send money through Square Cash, Square's mobile P2P app, in iOS 10. This was one of several updates to the two Apple features, including opening up the service to developers.
Rumors had been swirling that Apple would integrate P2P payments into iMessage, but most speculated that it would occur through Apple Pay and bank partnerships.
Apple is trying to take a formula that has worked in other markets so that it can turn iMessage into a more attractive option globally. Messaging apps in China, for example, have become an ecosystem of their own. WeChat has more than 700 million monthly active users, and 200 million of those have linked bank accounts and payment information to the messaging app. This user base suggests that payment functionality is crucial to the success of such messaging apps in the world's most populous nation.
In the U.S., apps such as Facebook Messenger and Snapchat have money transfer features, and Apple could eventually use similar functionality to compete more squarely with other messaging providers worldwide.
The P2P integration could also boost Square Cash, a smaller player in the P2P market, because iMessage users must download and sign up for the service in order to use it. The Apple integration could make Square Cash attractive because it lets users send funds through apps in which they are already communicating rather than using a separate app.
Messaging apps are surging in popularity around the world as they offer more features for users, such as P2P payments and photo and video sharing.
Will McKitterick, senior research analyst for BI Intelligence, Business Insider's premium research service, has compiled a detailed report on messaging apps that takes a close look at the size of the messaging app market, how these apps are changing, and the types of opportunities for monetization that have emerged from the growing audience that uses messaging services daily.
Here are some of the key takeaways from the report:
- Mobile messaging apps are massive. The largest services have hundreds of millions of monthly active users (MAU). Falling data prices, cheaper devices, and improved features are helping propel their growth.
- Messaging apps are about more than messaging. The first stage of the chat app revolution was focused on growth. In the next phase, companies will focus on building out services and monetizing chat apps' massive user base.
- Popular Asian messaging apps like WeChat, KakaoTalk, and LINE have taken the lead in finding innovative ways to keep users engaged. They've also built successful strategies for monetizing their services.
- Media companies, and marketers are still investing more time and resources into social networks like Facebook and Twitter than they are into messaging services. That will change as messaging companies build out their services and provide more avenues for connecting brands, publishers, and advertisers with users.
In full, this report:
- Gives a high-level overview of the messaging market in the US by comparing total monthly active users for the top chat apps.
- Examines the user behavior of chat app users, specifically what makes them so attractive to brands, publishers, and advertisers.
- Identifies what distinguishes chat apps in the West from their counterparts in the East.
- Discusses the potentially lucrative avenues companies are pursuing to monetize their services.
- Offers key insights and implications for marketers as they consider interacting with users through these new platforms.

HTC's standalone VR headset comes with 'world-scale' tracking.
HTC teased a standalone VR headset for the Chinese market earlier this year, and the company has now unveiled the product at a media event in Beijing. Dubbed the Vive Focus, the headset is the "first commercial standalone device" with inside-out 6-degree-of-freedom (6DoF), which means it doesn't need a base station to track your movements.
The "world-scale" tracking — made possible by front-mounted cameras — lets you use the headset anywhere, and as the device is powered by a Snapdragon 835, you don't need to tether it to a PC or a phone. The Vive Focus features a "high-resolution" AMOLED screen with "low latency and unmatched clarity," along with a rotational head strap and a Bluetooth controller that offers 3DoF.
HTC also announced Vive Wave, a VR open platform that lets developers easily create content for mobile VR devices. With Daydream not available in China, HTC is positioning its Viveport store as the default gateway for customers looking to access VR content. The company picked up 12 hardware partners for its platform — including the likes of 360QIKU, Nubia, Pico, Quanta, iQIYI, and others — and HTC is betting on interoperability between VR devices as the differentiator for Vive Wave.
From Alvin Wang Graylin, HTC China's regional president:
We're delighted that the VIVE Wave VR open platform is receiving such strong industry support from both hardware partners and developers.
As the VR industry leader in China, it is our duty to help reduce market fragmentation and provide content developers with more ways to make money. VIVE Wave will assure a higher consistency in the user experience on a variety of mobile VR devices across various price points, making quality VR more accessible to the mass market.
What's more, with the new VIVE Focus, we are excited to bring high quality 6DoF VR experiences, which were previously only available on tethered devices, in a more convenient and portable form factor.
HTC hasn't detailed pricing or availability yet, but the Vive Focus will be sold initially in China. The Taiwanese manufacturer has stated that it is looking to attract a mainstream audience, and considering Oculus' $199 standalone VR headset is set to arrive sometime next year, it'll be interesting to see where the Vive Focus slots in.

This is a question I get very often: If an injured worker was classified with less than a total permanent disability (a.k.a. permanent partial disability) but he/she was also found to have involuntarily retired from the labor market, the finding of involuntary retirement prevents a finding of voluntary withdrawal from the labor market. This means that, if you are an injured worker who has been classified with a permanent partial disability and in your Notice of Decision the Judge has also found you to have involuntarily retired from the labor market, the Carrier cannot later on threaten to suspend your benefits absent a showing of a documented work search. You do not need to produce such work search because by definition a finding of involuntary retirement means you cannot work in any capacity, irrespective of what degree of disability is associated with your comp claim.
The finding of involuntary retirement is often obtained by Claimants who have more damage to their health than just the comp injury alone. Usually if the Claimant has been awarded Social Security Disability benefits they can use that to persuade a Workers' Comp Law Judge (WCLJ) to find them to have involuntarily withdrawn from the labor market.
So if you are an injured worker that meets the above description and you have recently been harassed by the Comp Carrier to produce a work search record, you should send the Carrier a copy of the Notice of Decision highlighting the portion where you are found to have involuntarily retired. That should take care of that issue. If a hearing is required just bring that Decision to the Hearing and have the Judge re-affirm it.
New York Workers' Compensation is an intricate area of law that is often subject to a number of misconceptions. This site is intended to help readers seeking clarification on the topic of NY Workers' Comp. Whether you are an injured worker lost amidst the complexities of Workers' Comp, a doctor who is not sure how to properly handle a Workers' Comp patient's file, or simply a curious New Yorker who worries about what would happen if you were ever injured on the job, I hope that the content of this site will deliver the answers you seek, even to questions you didn't know to ask.

Most Recent Workers' Comp Wage Benefits Wage Maximums
As you all probably know from previous posts, under NY Workers' Comp Law an injured worker is entitled to receive wage benefits if they are unable to work as a result of their work related injury. The wage benefits are based on the injured worker's percentage disability, his/her gross average weekly wage during the year leading up to the date of accident, and the statutory maximum allowed at the time of his/her accident. These statutory maximums go up every year based on NY state's average weekly wage (AWW). Here is the new table of statutory maximum's according to NY Comp Law:
Accidents Taking Place On or After Maximum
July 1st, 2012 792.07
July 1st, 2011 772.96
July 1st, 2010 739.83
July 1st, 2009 600
July 1st 2008 550
July 1st 2007 500
July 1st 1992 400
IMPORTANTLY: The benefit rate a Claimant receives is capped by the maximum rate according to his/her date of injury, and it does not increase if new maximum benefits are adopted into law.
Just as a refresher, your level of disability is crucial in determining how much you can collect.
Your level of disability can fall under one of four categories:
Mild = on average 25% disabled (includes any disability greater than 0% and up to 49.99%).
Moderate = on average 50% (includes 50-74.99 % disabled).
Marked = on average 75% (includes 75-99.99 % disabled).
Total = 100% disabled.
How your wage benefits are calculated:
Mild disability = 1/6 of your gross average weekly wage up to the statutory maximum.
Moderate disability = 1/3 of your gross average weekly wage up to the statutory maximum.
Marked disability = 1/2 of your gross average weekly wage up to the statutory maximum.
Total disability = 2/3 of your gross average weekly wage up to the statutory maximum.
Your doctor is the one who determines your degree of disability as a result of the work accident. In order for you to be able to collect wage benefits, your doctor's reports MUST indicate the exact percentage of disability that you have and explain how it related to the work accident. Without an exact percentage (for example, if your doctor simply states that you are partially disabled but does not indicate how much percentage of partial disability you have) you may only be able to receive the minimum amount available in the partial category. Therefore it is CRUCIAL that you MAKE SURE your doctor's reports indicate the exact percentage disability you have AND that your disability is causally related to your work accident.

Whirlpool WDP350PAAW 24" Portable Full Console Dishwasher
Best Portable Dishwasher
Expert Review
Many people buy exclusively Whirlpool appliances because of their reputation for being reliable and affordable. This portable dishwasher is very well-suited to a kitchen that can't accommodate a built-in one, whether because of design or because of being in a rental unit. The WDP350PAAW has basic, clean styling that isn't likely to clash with that of most kitchens, and the woodgrain top makes use of the space like a small kitchen island. This dishwasher offers a tall tub with room for 12 place settings, and racks that fit most tall, awkwardly-shaped items well. Three wash cycles include high temperature, heavy, and quick 1-hour wash, while there are also basic options such as auto soil sensor, delay start, and sanitize. Being a portable dishwasher, the WDP350PAAW is easy to use and convenient, without the added expense and fuss of installation. This efficient dishwasher is also quiet, running at 55 decibels.

When A Mistake Becomes A Tragedy
Some injuries happen purely by accident and insurance may be available to cover them. However, when someone is hurt through a person's or organization's negligence or incompetence, a personal injury lawsuit may be the only option to make a person or their family whole.
Some examples of injuries caused by negligence include:
- Car accidents
- Faulty equipment
- Workplace injuries
- Medical malpractice
These injuries can put unmanageable expenses on victims such as medical bills, while at the same time preventing the victim from being able to work and earn income.
What Would The Compensation Cover?
Civil lawsuits can seek reimbursement for medical expenses, payment of future medical bills, costs of transport during recovery and compensation for income lost due to the effects of injuries. Suits may also cover financial restitution for pain and suffering or emotional distress, as well as compensation for long-term disability or disfigurement.
As well as dealing with the parties responsible, personal injury lawsuits may target insurance companies that delay or refuse to pay coverage to victims who deserve help. The attorneys at the law firm of George Collins, P.A., take an aggressive approach to these cases to fight for the full compensation our clients deserve.
Ask About Your Claim Today
Our lawyers have helped North Carolina residents in a variety of injury situations. State law limits the time in which victims can file a personal injury claim so it is important not to delay. Email our office today or call 910-346-4175 to schedule a free consultation. We are located in Jacksonville and work throughout Onslow County and North Carolina.

Azure locations, regions, datacenters, fault domains, update domains, clusters, availability sets??
I was at a conference couple of weeks and we were discussing the latest improvements in Azure geo-redundancy across different locations…or was it regions or within different datacenters? But what about fault domains and upgrade domains? This blogpost will review the Azure datacenter model and explain the difference between all of those constructs.
Azure Regions
The Azure datacenters are located around the world in strategic places that best meets the customer demands. These areas are known as Azure regions and are placed at a distance of at least 300miles or 480km from each other in case there is a natural disaster that would affect more than one region at a time.
Azure operates out of 20 regions around the world at the time of writing this blog post. Geographic expansion is a priority for Azure because it enables the customers to achieve higher performance and it supports their requirements and preferences regarding data location.
In the table below you can find the Azure regions and location. For the latest list of Azure datacenter locations, see Azure Regions.
Azure Region
|Central US
|East US
|East US 2
|US Gov Iowa
|US Gov Virginia
|North Central US
|South Central US
|West US
|North Europe
|West Europe
|East Asia
|Hong Kong
|Southeast Asia
|Japan East
|Tokyo, Saitama
|Japan West
|Brazil South
|Sao Paulo State
|Australia East
|New South Wales
|Australia Southeast
|Central India
|South India
|West India
Before you can deploy anything in Azure you need to have an understanding of the following:
- What is a Region?
- Where are the regions located?
- What are the different capabilities of the regions with respect to each other?
- What are the preview features vs. general availability within a region?
- Are there any restrictions on where you can deploy to a region? For example: Legal compliance, Government regulations?
It is very important to correctly choose a region or regions that meet your organization's needs. There are a number of elements to consider when choosing a region to deploy your applications and services:
- Data
- Location of service consumers
- Service capability and availability
- Network performance
- Pricing
- Redundancy for high availability
Where the data is physically stored is very important for customers. When a storage account is created, the customer chooses the primary location for their storage account. However, the secondary location for the storage account is fixed and customers do not have the ability to change this. The following table shows the current primary and secondary location pairings:

Service capability and availability
Not all Azure services are available everywhere at the same time. Azure will first release a new feature in preview to only a subset of regions, prior to being generally available.
Before deploying an Azure service, review the following link and choose a region or regions to verify what services are available in your selected region: Services by region.
Network performance
It is best to validate the latency between the customer location and Microsoft Azure regions. Choose the one with the lowest latency, which will provide the best performance from a networking perspective. You can test the network latency with this tool for examaple: http://www.azurespeed.com/
The pricing can be different for different regions for the same services. The cost for Azure Services is controlled by many factors. If latency is not important for your application you may deploy it in a region with a lower cost. In some regions however are only for a certain set of customers. The Australian region is only for customers with a business pressense in Australia or New Zealand. Please refer to the following site for the pricing details of each service provided by Microsoft Azure: Azure Pricing.
Datacenter Architecture
As described earlier, Azure hosts its services in a series of globally distributed datacenters. These datacenters are located in a specific location and are grouped together in regions. Datacenters within a given region are divided into "clusters," which host the Azure services. Within each datacenter, the racks of equipment are built to be fault tolerant on a networking, physical host servers, storage, and power level. The physical host servers are placed in high availability units called a cluster.
One single rack is referred to as a Fault Domain (FD), and it can be viewed as a vertical partitioning of the hardware. A second partition within the datacenter is called the Upgrade Domain (UD) and it can be viewed as a set of horizontal stripes passing through the vertical racks of fault domains. To provide redundancy to your application, we recommend that you group two or more virtual machines in an Availability Set. This configuration ensures that during either a planned or unplanned maintenance event, at least one virtual machine will be available. Each virtual machine in your Availability Set is assigned an Update Domain (UD) and a Fault Domain (FD) by the underlying Azure platform. The following diagram shows a high-level relationship between fault domains and update domains in the Azure datacenters.
Virtual machines are placed in specific fault domains and update domains based on the location of respective virtual machines in the same Availability Set.
Fault Domains
The fault domain is considered the lowest common denominator within the datacenter for fault tolerance. Microsoft Azure can lose a complete rack, and the hosted services can continue unaffected. FDs define the group of virtual machines that share a common power source and network switch. By default, the virtual machines configured within your Availability Set are separated across two FDs. While placing your virtual machines into an Availability Set does not protect your application from operating system or application-specific failures, it does limit the impact of potential physical hardware failures, network outages, or power interruptions.
Upgrade domains
Upgrade domains are used to deploy updates (security patches) within Azure without affecting the availability of the running services within the Azure fabric. For a given Availability Set, five non-user-configurable UDs are assigned to indicate groups of virtual machines and underlying physical hardware that can be rebooted at the same time. When more than five virtual machines are configured within a single Availability Set, the sixth virtual machine will be placed into the same UD as the first virtual machine, the seventh in the same UD as the second virtual machine, and so on. The order of UDs being rebooted may not proceed sequentially during planned maintenance, but only one UD will be rebooted at a time.
I hope you have a understanding now of the differences between Azure regions, locations and so on and how the different Azure architectural constructs relate to each other.
Kind regards,
Alexandre Verkinderen

Solar eclipse
When seen from Earth, a solar eclipse (ee klips') happens when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun. This makes the Moon fully or partially (partly) cover the sun. Solar eclipses can only happen during a new moon. Every year about two solar eclipses occur. Sometimes there are even five solar eclipses in a year. However, only two of these can be total solar eclipses,[1][2] and they are quite uncommon.
Eclipses are total only in a narrow track along the Earth, and only for a few minutes. Outside this path, all eclipses are partial, and places far from the track get no eclipse at all. The track can be predicted many years before it happens. Many people who are sometimes called "eclipse chasers" or "umbraphiles"[3] (the moon's shadow is called an umbra)[4] travel to faraway places to see solar eclipses. After the solar eclipse on August 11, 1999, in Europe, people began to show more interest in solar eclipses. On October 3, 2005, there was another solar eclipse, and unusually many people came to see it.
The last total eclipse was the solar eclipse of November 13, 2012.
A total solar eclipse is a natural phenomenon (event). Yet long ago, solar eclipses were thought to happen because of something supernatural or as a sign that something bad was going to happen. This is still believed in some cultures today. A total solar eclipse can frighten people who do not know what it means, because the Sun seems to disappear during the day and the sky turns dark in just a few minutes.
Solar eclipses happen somewhere on Earth almost every year, and very similar solar eclipses happen every 18 years, 11.3 days. This period is called the Saros cycle.
There are four different types of solar eclipses:
- A total eclipse is when the Sun is completely hidden behind the Moon. The dark shadow of the Moon covers the very bright surface of the Sun. This makes the corona easier to see.
- An annular eclipse is when the Sun is directly behind the moon, but it looks like the Moon is smaller. This makes the Sun appear as a very bright ring or annulus around the shape of the Moon.
- A hybrid eclipse (also called annular/total eclipse) is when it looks like a total eclipse in some parts of the Earth, and an annular eclipse in other parts. Hybrid eclipses do not happen as often as other eclipses.
- A partial eclipse is when the moon is not exactly between the Sun and Earth, so it does not hide the Sun completely. This can usually be seen from a large part of the Earth.
The Sun's distance from the Earth is about 400 times the Moon's distance, and the Sun's diameter is about 400 times as big as the Moon's. This is why the Sun and Moon seem to be about the same size from Earth.
Looking at a solar eclipse
Looking directly at the bright surface of the Sun itself can hurt the retina of the eye greatly because of the radiation that comes from the Sun. It can even blind people. The retina does not feel pain, so damage may not be felt for hours.[5]
The Sun is usually so bright that it is hard to look at it directly. However, when the Sun is covered in an eclipse, it is easier to look at it. Looking at the Sun during an eclipse is equally dangerous, except in the very short time when the Sun's surface is completely covered. Looking at the Sun's surface through binoculars, a telescope, or even a camera is extremely dangerous and can damage the eye in less than a second.[6][7]
Looking at the Sun without an eclipse does not usually hurt the eye very greatly, because the pupil of the eye closes down and makes everything darker. If the Sun is almost completely covered, the pupil opens because there is not as much light. However, the parts of the Sun that can be seen are still equally bright, and can hurt the eye very much.

Dpreview has just posted an announcement of the new FujiFilm's F50fd a digital compact camera which is the successor of the famous F30.
The F30 is known of delivering clean high ISO images. I has an amazing technology with its CCD sensor and processor. I wont elaborate much about its tech and just list here what i like about the F50fd.
The reason why?
- Clean high ISO
- Accepts SD cards (unlike the F30)
- Has Aperture & Shutter speed settings
- 30FPS video
- good battery life (from specs)
- whopping 12megapixels
I do hope it can live with my expectations. It will roll out this coming September.
Ehem anyone from Fuji YKL Philippines needs a hands on review? 😉

Hello Loves,
Am off my game lately… I always fancied people working for themselves until I started my own blog I realized that it isn't that easy to manage things on your own. Everything from far looks so rosy 🌹🌹isn't ? Trust me, as you get closer to the roses is when u actually see the thorns hehe… 😂😂 Not that am complaining. Am absolutely loving what am doing… Things kept me so busy, visiting home 🏡after two years, meeting relatives, long lost friends, cousins, 🎄xmas , new year so on and so forth.
Nonetheless, Am back and promise to keep up with you guys as often as I can… I know it's a new year but since am not one of those people who keep resolutions, cause I never keep it up .. 😜Hence, not talking much about it other than" Wishing all my Lovelies a " Happy New Year"… All am promising myself is not to be the same girl I used to be 12 months ago…😊😊
Ever been in a situation where you like something so much yet for some reason you end up not buying?? And come home and regret? Well, am sure most of us do that don't we?
Well, this is what happened a month ago when I went for shopping and came across this lovely midi skirt, by now y'all know my love for the midi skirt, this particular one has an extraordinary charm in it. The color, design and the material… It's quirky, sexy and fun to wear… well, what if I told you it's only for INR 1300 😳😳/ USD 19 😳😳 Yes, You heard me…Sometimes I get really Lucky. However, I wasn't sure whether or not to pick this up so instead I picked up something else, and what next ?came home and regreted for not buying… I guess the universe conspired to get this one for me. I went to the store after two weeks or so not expecting that it would still be there… But there it was … No second thought and I owned it… Phew!! The feeling of owning something U thought you lost is too awesome……isn't?
So, I paired this midi skirt with my Forever 21 tee shirt dress… Weird? Yes, the top what am wearing is actually a tee shirt dress… This is what I love about Fashion it comes with no rule book. Few people think am weird cause I dress up weird and few feel I am way to stylish , either way am happy hehe…
I am not much of an accessory fan however since the top had a Lil deep neck so I wore my payal (anklet) as a neckpiece and made a choker out of an old unused bra Strap 😜😜( Y'all may try too)
This is the weird me… I wear whatever that comes handy… wink wink… and teamed it up with one of my old favourite shoes.
So this is the beauty of Fashion isn't? It's not about what you wear it's about how you wear them…
So Lovelies go ahead and don't lose out on ur weirdness….
I hope you liked reading this post as much as I did writing…
Don't forget to keep Fierce and keep it stylish…

Note that Complex numbers are Numeric by default, so there is no need for your ComplexQ-definition. If you think about seriously using Mathematica you should get familiar with its pattern matcher, otherwise you are missing its strongest part :-). If I correctly understood what you are after, the following leaves all the work for mathematica: IsConstantsIn[{___, _?NumericQ, ___}] := True IsConstantsIn[___] := False the first definition gives True, if the argument to IsConstantsIn is a list containing at least one numeric element at any position. The second definition ensures that IsConstantsIn will return False in any other case. To handle other cases, e.g. expressions that are not lists you can easily extend by adding additional definitions. Finally I think the name of your function could probably changed to reflect more clearly what exactly it is doing, e.g. IsNumericIn or HasNumericElement. Mathematica has the posibility to define attributes to symbols, among these attributes is Constant, so IsCOnstantsIn would mislead me in thinking it has something to do with that... hth, albert

Latest news, thought leadership, and product information from Sealed Air.
Consumers across the globe increasingly prefer the ease and convenience of shopping from their couches instead of fighting crowds during the holidays and the latest sales numbers reflect just that.
At Sealed Air, it's our responsibility as an industry leader to partner with organizations that are committed to solving our world's most critical food security challenges through agriculture education.
Like most Americans, I'll be doing much of my holiday shopping online this year. And I do mean most Americans: According to the National Retail Federation (NRF), 55 percent of holiday shoppers will purchase gifts online this year.
To demonstrate our support for military personnel, here are three ways we are committed to veterans.
One of the funnier (and more truthful) bumper stickers I've seen lately has been on the backs of tractor trailers traveling the highways. It reads: Don't like trucks? Stop buying stuff. Problem solved.
This consumer joke hits home to those of us who spend a lot of time in fulfillment centers, especially during holiday peak season, which heats up mid-November and lasts through early January. As more purchases are made online, there's more trouble brewing inside fulfillment centers that still aren't prepared for the onslaught of e-commerce holiday orders each year.
Not enough space, not enough labor, too many packaging options, too many product SKUs: What can businesses do to get some breathing room?
How does food waste relate to food security? President of Sealed Air Food Care, Karl Deily, sat down with World Food Program USA to discuss the root causes of food loss and how we can develop innovative approaches to achieve Zero Hunger worldwide.
Globally, consumers are turning to snacks more frequently to replace meals. Meanwhile, health concerns and increasingly fast-paced lifestyles are driving demand for healthier snacking options like fruits and vegetables.
Designing for delivery ensures that products are packaged properly at the onset, such as at the manufacturer site.
Aisles of every store are filled to the brim with pens, notepads and backpacks ready to help students succeed in their pursuit of knowledge. However, not all students have the resources to properly prepare for the school year, which can put them behind in the classroom and cause them to miss critical lessons.

Subject: STOKE WIDE 9'6″ Carbon Two-Tone Lime Green – Testimonial
To Wardog and the rest of the Crew at SUPsports
Received my "Stoke Wide" 9'6″ X 32″ Carbon Two-Tone Lime Green (Photo Attached) this week, in perfect condition.
Took it out to the Bay right away to get a feel for the float etc…; BUT, Immediately I knew it was for me, so took it to the ocean for a test run. By far The Best Board I have ever ridden. Started out with a Thruster Set-Up since that's what I'm used to, but waiting on the Quad Fin Set-Up which should arrive soon.
You guys provide excellent service and recommendations. Warren, you could not have picked a better board for me. If you remember, I was contemplating the 9'2″, but I'm glad I stuck with the 9'6″, it is a perfect float for my height and weight (6′ – 210LB).
Board is also aesthetically beautiful. Nicest looking SUP on the Beach.
Thanks for all the extras as well; Great T-Shirts and Cap. I have already started hyping up your products and handing out the Flyers you sent. East End Long Island needs more of these boards out here.
Thanks Again,
61 Years Old and Still Stoked!
Pete Hoepfner (East Hampton/Montauk, New York)

Last week, American Idol made a valiant attempt to prove its contemporary worth with "Music of the 21st Century." And although the only successes in my eyes were Haley Reinhart and James Durbin, I appreciated the effort by the show to move its contestants away from music written before their parents were born.
And then they announced the theme for this week...
As always... WARNING: Stop reading now if you want the theme of the week to be a surprise!
Slamming back into the 1960s and '70s, the Top 6 will perform music from the Carole King Songbook.
Listen, I love me some Carole King (thanks, Mom!). I think she's one of the greatest songwriters of the last 50 years and I've even seen her perform live, but is performing her music the way to prove to America that you are ready to enter and dominate the music business in 2011?
That being said, here are my suggestions for what the Top 6 should and should not perform tonight. To be honest, I'm not particularly passionate about these choices, so I'll leave the explanations out this week.
Should Sing: "Smackwater Jack"LAUREN ALAINA
Should Not Sing: "Jazzman" (save that one for Bleeding Gums Murphy and Lisa Simpson, please)
Should Sing: "So Far Away"JAMES DURBIN
Should Not Sing: "It Might As Well Rain Until September"
Should Sing: "I Feel the Earth Move"JACOB LUSK
Should Not Sing: "Beautiful"
Should Sing: "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow"SCOTTY McCREERY
Should Not Sing: "Now and Forever" (despite it being from my favorite movie of all time, A League of Their Own)
Should Sing: "Home Again"HALEY REINHART
Should Not Sing: "You've Got a Friend"
Should Sing: "One Fine Day"What do you think of this week's theme? Do you wish Idol would stick to more contemporary music or do you think this provides the ideal opportunity to put a modern twist on an old classic? And don't you wish someone would perform "Chicken Soup with Rice," "Really Rosie" or "Pierre"?? Maybe for tomorrow's group number...
Should Not Sing: "It's Too Late"

About the Book
12 Years a Slave, the Oscar winning Hollywood film directed by Steve McQueen and staring Chiwetel Ejiofor, Michael Fassbander, Brad Pitt and Benedict Cumberbatch, is the harrowing true story of Solomon Northup who was kidnapped and endured 12 Years of Slavery.
Tricked by two men offering him a job as a musician in New York State in 1841, Solomon Northup was drugged and kidnapped. His life in jeopardy, he was forced to assume a new name and fake past. Taken to Louisiana on a disease-ridden plague ship, he was initially sold to a cotton planter.
In the twelve years that follow he is sold to many different owners who treat him with varying levels of savagery; forced labour, scant food and numerous beatings are his regular fare. Against all odds, Northup eventually succeeds in contacting a sympathetic party and manages to get word to his family. The ensuing rescue and legal cases are no less shocking and intriguing than the rest of the tale.
Northup's meticulous first-hand recordings of slave life provide a true-life testament to tremendous courage and tenacity in the face of unfathomable injustice.
'12 Years a Slave, adapted from the 1853 autobiography of Solomon Northup, elicits from McQueen a directing job that's compellingly humble but also majestic… a must-brave experience whose justifiable collection of every film award going begins here' - Daily Telegraph
'12 Years a Slave deserves to win a hatful of Oscars as a moving and intelligently unsentimental film' - Mirror
'Glowing reviews of the forthcoming film of this book have reawakened interest in the original source material, and justifably so' - Daily Mail

If You Buy a Family a TV
Have you ever read "If You Give A Mouse A Cookie"? If so than you may be able to relate to my current situation. I feel like I'm living in a home decorators version of that book. As you know, if you've read the book, the mouse never seems happy with just the cookie. He always needs something else. So, my home decor version goes something like this... (warning, it's not written nearly as cute as the book)
If you let a family buy a tv..... (yes, we just bought a tv - haven't had one in years.)
The family will need a new table to put the tv on.
The table won't work so a different one will be moved in from another room.
Once the table is in place, the mom - that's me - won't like how the couch is lined up in the room.
The mom will move the couch to better fill the space.
The space is better filled now but there are empty areas that need book shelves.
The mom brings shelves in from another room.
The shelves are in place and neatly arranged with books and old cameras but the mom notices that the computer area is too close to the couch and shelves.
The computer area MUST be moved!
The mom disassembles the computer, moves the desk and realizes she now needs two desks instead of one.
Another desk is brought into the room from another area in house and all seems well - but it's not.
The desks need something. Something to tie them both together and to make a bigger work space.
The mom - that's me - takes on a building project and....
so it goes...the area with the new tv looks great but everything else, including several other rooms and areas are now bare and in need of being rearranged and redecorated. Not to mention that my computer, the one I use to blog and edit photos is still disassembled, on the floor, in pieces. It's waiting for it's new home to be built.
My husband calls this, lovingly of course, the perpetual state of optimization.
I'm now in the process of relocating half of my craft and jewelry making supplies, building a computer zone and baking chocolate chip cookies while I try to stay sane in the midst of all the transitions.
And all of this happened just because we bought a tv!

Cute post, Amy! Good luck with making room for everything!
My daughter and I attended a baby shower a couple of weeks ago and she gave that book (mouse/cookie) as her gift. One of the ladies at the shower mentioned wanting to write a book called, "When you give a mom a glass of wine..." We thought that was pretty funny, but probably wouldn't have as pleasant an ending as your TV bit!

Funny and Oh! So True!! We just got a new TV and now our cable box, DVD player and X-box are sitting precariously on a TV tray NEXT to the TV because they don't fit on the stand anymore. We are about to start the same process .....

- Bluefunk said...
Oh my gosh! A similar situation is happening at our right now. I decided that I was going to move my dresser into the kitchen to use as storage for baking items. However, it's created a chain effect. In order to move the dresser, I need a new dresser (well, we'll finally get matching dressers) and the new dresser will be deeper than the existing which will not fit because the sleigh bed frame sticks out too far; so now I need a new bed frame, but need to get rid of the old first. All this is to save having to buy a storage solution for the kitchen.
I'm going to have to look up this book...it's so very true!

Oh my goodness, you and I are sisters in another world. My husband bought a flat screen tv and I thought "it would look so much better mounted on the wall above the fireplace than sitting on the tv stand. Of course we needed the wireless connection to our cable so there wouldn't be cables across the room. Then the furniture needed to be moved. Then a wall needed to be painted. The antique lanterns that had hung on both sides of the fireplace of course now needed a new home, and the painted horses that sat on the mantel for years made it look just too crowded. On an on it went. I can relate to your pain. LOL

This made me laugh a lot! It reminds me of the Flanders and Swan song ''Twas on a Monday Morning'. If you haven't heard it, look on U tube, it's bound to be there. I do hope you get sorted eventually!

We went a few years without a TV when our girls were younger (probably around 3rd and 4th grades) because their Dad was obsessed with it and had it on constantly ... so it went to the attic. My daughter, now 26, says it was one of the best things we ever did! It turned her into an avid reader ... and she even got me interested in reading which I never really enjoyed before that!

Please check out this Blog. Lots & lots of interesting ideas as well as a swap.
Wonderful idea.
Cooper's Quilow
This is a quilow I made for Cooper out of what was left over from the quilow I made for Thomas.
I was even able to use some teddy bear fabric for the backing. Now that made me happy because it was probadly my last chance to use it, as Cooper is 3 now ( he is a big boy). I like to use fabric out of my stash.
All that was left to do was the binding which I did last night for the FNSI.

My Sprocket Pillow
Friday, 5 August 2011
I used this great layout for my eldest grandson Matty. He has be doing mototcross for a few years now. Mororcross is a very dangerous sport and he has already had a couple of accidents. He has been flown to Brisbane with back problems, luckily it was not as serious as first thought. He also broke the growth plate in his foot ( never heard of that before). The brown, gold and green in this layout is perfect for boys and great for using a lot of photos.
Family (Scrapbooking)
Scrapbooking is another passion of mine. I think it all goes together, patchwork, embroidery and scrapbooking. I love going back and looking at photos from the past. I am making an album for my kids going back as far as I can so they will have some family history before it all gets lost. At the moment this is their great grandparents. I am doing some family tree research but it takes a lot of time. This is a photo of my sister (aged 3) and myself ( aged 12 months) I am only guessing the ages. The colours in this layout look really great and the lattice work wasn't that hard.

Flip Flop & Bow Hair Clippies.
What more can I say, again done In the Hoop on my embroidery machine.
They look gorgeous, I am having lots of fun making these hair clippies.
These hair clippies are a bit different as the clip is put into the back of the design so you don't see the clip at all.
More Felt Hair Clippies
This is where I get a lot of my designs from.......

I couldn't wait to find the L'Oreal Infallible 24HR Eye Shadows at my local Target. I found them a few weeks ago but haven't gotten around to posting about them until now. I originally only purchased one shade, Sultry Smoke, but after trying it out I went back to my local Target and picked up two more, Iced Latte and Midnight Blue.
This shadow has a unique texture; it's not a cream shadow, although that's what I first assumed it was. It actually feels rather soft and even a bit bouncy. Feels slightly dry but goes on smooth. Like I said, it's a bit of a unique texture and I like it. It's a hybrid of cream shadow and loose pigment.
Check out my pics, swatches, stats, and review...
Continue scrolling down to see more photos of each individual shade.
L'Oreal Infallible 24HR Eye Shadow
$7.50 to $10.00 depending where you shop (0.12 oz full size). Available at Target, Wal-Mart, CVS, etc. Basically anywhere L'Oreal cosmetics are sold.
The color payoff is really nice. Sultry Smoke was the one shade that originally stood out to me, because I love grays, but I ended up lusted after Iced Latte and Midnight Blue as well. You can use these shadows on their own, with others, or even as a smokey liner.
I've seen other shades offered in different countries, including a silver gray toned one, and I'd love to see more shades come to the United States!
Overall, yes, I would recommend these shadows!!

One man's opinion on VampiresAugust 13th, 2009 Posted in Uncategorized
In one of my earlier post "Learning to Love Yourself" I spoke of vampires being a mythological representation of a narcissist.
A good friend of mine invited me over to his house to watch the HBO series "True Blood" which is about vampires.
I watched two episodes and it was all I could take it was torture.
Throughout each episode people are methodically manipulating and taking advantage of each other. Almost always culminating in some type of revenge plot and subsequent drama that unfolds.
I will admit it makes for great TV but it doesn't say much about our present cultures insatiable need to feed off of and manipulate each other. I was thinking to myself while I was watching this why are Vampires damned to eternity. I came up with an answer fairly quickly that makes sense to me.
They don't get it.
You see I believe wholeheartedly that we choose to come to the earth and work on our souls. After enough trips ideally we become enlightened and transcend the need to incarnate and evolve into the spiritual realm. By fighting that and opting to stay on earth until eternity you are therefore denying the opportunity to learn to let go of the lesser human behaviors such as resentment, jealousy, anger and all the manipulative drama exhibited on that show.
Of course this is all mythological but that is precisely why this is so deep. My heroes Joseph Campbell and Carl Jung were very steadfast and convincing in the power of myth. It is in our stories and in our history that we find our true selves and who we are.
Isn't it interesting that a vampire can't see the light? I think I know a few vampires, hell I used to be one and I am still working on it. The first step to change though is awareness and I was lucky enough to have enough pain in my relationships to use as leverage to get my self to change.
I also think it is interesting that one of the ways to kill a vampire is to drive a wooden stake through their heart. That is very interesting to me. At first my hunch is that says something about what the vampire has done to the person doing the killing. Destroyed their heart as well, especially since all of this is fiction. And there is always more truth in fiction.
I have a couple of very honest friends who are not afraid to tell me when I must keep my ego in check. I also have as a close friend one of the best shrinks in the world and he does not and will not sugar coat things. He definitely didn't when it came to holding me to a higher standard and exposing my narcissism.
You see movies and TV and books and popular media always echo what is going on in our society at present. When mobster movies were all the rage it said a lot about our society.
Look at this vampire phenomena, look how many women are reading "Twilight" and all my guy friends have been on me to watch "True Blood" so I finally did and it disgusted me because it reminds me of everything that is wrong about our society right now.
Everyone is "sucking everyone's blood" The Federal Government is seizing assets from people, look at California. The State level Governments are feeding of the people with more and more taxes and look at what people are doing to each other in relationships. It's unbelievable and disheartening to see.
Look what corporations and banks and Ponzi schemes are all the corporate fraud was about.
Vampires sucking the life savings of people straight from their investments. Greed and more greed.
You see as I mentioned before a vampire is simply a mythological representation of a narcissist. Someone who "drains your energy" and plays on your fears. The term "Energy Vampire" is even a household term these days. I am a recovering Narcissist myself so I know about all of this a bit.
A friend of mine recently said "If I had a dollar for every time I wondered: Why am I still single, I'd be a millionaire" It's a question more than half of American women ask themselves, according to a report the New York Times put out in early 2007. This data includes women who live apart from their significant others, but all independent variables aside it's a figure that's rocketed significantly in the last couple decades.
Even as those 57.5 million women gather round cozy wine bars with their girlfriends, enjoying Bridget Jones, or Sex in The City during nights in sweats on the couch, or pack four different guys into one week (yes, it happens), we're likely to be puzzled over what we may be doing wrong: "That one wearing three carats with the husband more loyal than a black lab—what does she know that I don't?"—or if we actually need partners, as tradition (and Mom) seems to imply.
I hang out at Barnes and Noble quite a bit and just last week I saw a book entitled:
Generation Me: Why Today's Young Americans Are More Confident, Assertive, Entitled—and More Miserable—Than Ever Before (Free Press, 2007)
It is by Jean Twenge is a psychology professor at San Diego State University and author of and co-author of the upcoming "Narcissism Epidemic" with W. Keith Campbell.
Isn't her next book title prophetic?, I got goose bumps when I saw it. Am I the only one who sees the stuff? I sure as hell hope not because it is all around us. Unfortunately the conversations that come up in the circles I have been in lately seem to lean towards the more mundane issues.
I am going to have to fire some of my friends.
Based on recent research she has conducted to learn about current attitudes toward relationships, Twenge confirms, "There is in fact a massive cultural shift at work here." She says the number of women who are romantically uninvolved is a result of one major factor: our culture tells us we don't need relationships.
Call it the "singular-single syndrome": We have it. Twenge recently conducted a study of 200 student participants at San Diego State, and 90% of them answered the questionnaire stating they live by grand individualistic philosophies like, "You shouldn't ever need anyone else to make you feel complete" and "You have to make yourself happy." Read: Can You Buy Happiness?
Based on this study and a handful of others Twenge has conducted in the last few years, she concludes that today's young adults feel they need to be completely self-sufficient in their happiness.
The fact is, young American adults view deep emotional involvement with others as weakness and dependence. It's not just that our culture accepts and accommodates the single lifestyle now—it's that it actually disparages the individual who isn't focused solely on her own personal advancement.
The ubiquitous teachings from our capitalist culture media, Boomer-generation parents who toiled to teach us the importance of pursuing personal goals, and teachers in an increasingly survival-of-the-very-fittest education system—all these emphasize the individual and her goals, not her need for involvement with others.
Twenge also said that a study she's currently conducting with W. Keith Campbell leads to the conclusion that narcissism in America is higher than it's ever been before, and by definition of considering themselves more important than the people they associate with, narcissistic people make terrible relationship partners.
Twenge blames this spike in narcissism on societal teachings like those aforementioned but also feels that purported social networking devices like MySpace and Facebook are less a method of connecting with others than a means of shameless self-promotion giving the individual limitless opportunity to think about themselves and advertise why other people should want to know them.
Amen Jean! I am going to pick her up and hug her for that statement when I meet her.
This is why I have taken somewhat of a sabbatical from the internet. I am in the music business where "social networking" is all the rage and I am beginning to wonder about it's true validity.
Whatever happened to going out and genuinely meeting new fans face to face and talking to them?
Going out and earning them with the "sweat equity" of getting in a van and playing shows. I don't date women I meet on the internet, I like to meet them in person. I am the same way with fans, I like the personal touch. I use the internet as a way to stay in touch but am a people person at heart.
Some users even employ social networking sites out of romantic malice, attempting to provoke jealousy or track the whereabouts of an ex. And for some couples, being on each other's friend lists is a topic more taboo than first-date sex. "No way would I add (my new girlfriend) to my page," one of my friends told me. "I think she's pissed about it but if it ends, it will be too awkward if we're able to keep tabs on each other."
Any way you slice it, we're all looking out for Number One. Here's the trouble: the more time we spend thinking about ourselves, formulating clever responses to friends' online comments about us, posting our most attractive photos, and "pimping our profiles" to leave impressions on our contacts, the less time we spend actually interacting with and caring about others.
In one of my recent relationships a girl I was dating gave me a framed picture of herself for Valentine's Day. Talk about narcissism, I should have seen that one coming.
Even the word "friend" has transformed from an endeared noun used to describe an intimate, trusted companion to a verb that implies a quick click of the mouse. "Listen, I gotta run, it was nice to meet you. Remember to friend me tomorrow." We lack the basic fundamental of all relationships – spending time together – and personal eye-to-eye contact continues to grow more rare.
Chris Morett is a sociology professor specializing in family and marriage at Fordham University in New York City. Morett echoes this cultural emphasis on the individual.
He says our communities and peer groups have broken down significantly in the last decade, and our consumer culture promises the singular single that you can "Have it your way." Thus young Americans are less willing to compromise their own desires than ever before, and Morett goes so far as saying that the American dating process has become similar to other means of shopping for a product.
Because women don't need marriage for the economic stability and source of identity the institution provided decades ago (because the majority of American women nowadays were not raised simply to be wives but to value personal advancement by self-sufficient means, and women are economically independent deriving their identity from their work and other societal roles, not just from being a wife) marriage is not a necessity but a choice.
So when a woman dates a man and he doesn't possess all the "features" she requires, she briefly deliberates and continues shopping (Is passionate about his work, check. Loves to travel, check. Forgot to ask how my meeting went, uh-oh. Completely unacceptable.) No longer does a woman need a man or a marriage; now she wants a soulmate, a partner to share her interests and values and who provides passion and support and fun. She desires a man who won't require her to sacrifice her identity or every aspect of the single lifestyle she's come to enjoy.
See why the divorce rate is what it is? And I can prove to you that in reality it is about 1000%
See my post "Mating"
But until we meet an authentic person, (good luck in this quagmire) the solution to the single person's isolation is simple: shut the lid on your laptops and get over yourself.
I am going to be blunt, but those of you that read this know by now that's my style.
You do not have a gold plated pussy, so get over yourself. It's not that special, if you think it is, you can have it.
And guys, you are not God's gift to women so get over yourself as well. Grow some balls.
You don't have to do it all on your own. We'll only find the comfort to our singles' loneliness by spending time in the physical presence of people we love. If we want love, we have to love. We have to open our hearts to connecting again.
Wake up Zombies and get off of Facebook today and look someone in the eyes and have a real conversation.
Just one man's humble opinion.
Much Love,

|Daily's Frozen Lemonade
A web log started by two Wine Enthusiasts, synonym for "Winos". Its intent is to log our thoughts and opinions about inexpensive wines available at local grocery and beverage stores. Our hope is to prevent other "Winos" from making the same mistakes we made with our wine purchases.

Daily's Frozen Lemonade
Decided to try Daily's Frozen Lemonade. We had tried the Strawberry Daquiri and the Mojito and liked them. Same goes with the Frozen Lemonade. Rating: "Good" but for the heavy weight Winos, suggest adding a shot of Gin or Vodka to fortify it!

Single board Computers are based on a wide array of microprocessors and micro-controllers. For low-cost applications with simple software, low-end processors like the microchip PIC or the Intel 805X family can be used.
The processor used determines the range of processing power and in some respects the I/O available on the Single Board Computer.
For mid-range to high-end applications you can select from any number of processors from Coldfire, X86, MIPS, or PowerPC.
This section will describe the various processor families and provide examples of Single Board Computers based on each family.
Typical families include:
- X86 – The venerable architecture that spawned the PC revolution. Created by Intel, also produced by AMD used in desktop, laptop general purpose PCs and embedded products.
- PowerPC (Power Architecture) – Created by Motorola Semiconductor (Now Freescale). Used in communications, automotive, etc.
- MIPS – Used in high-end communications and graphics applications. Technology is licensed by MIPS by licensees who create their own variants based on the architecture.
- ARM – Used in low power and hand-held applications as well as instruments, etc. Licensed from ARM, LTD. The core architecture is used by licensees to produce unique variants of the processor.
- PIC – Low-end micro-controller family created by Microchip, and emulated by UBCOM. Starts at very low end and scales to middle range of power with 32-bit variants. Used for general purpose devices and logic replacement, consumer applications, etc.
- 805X – Created by Intel and now sold by Atmel and others. Very popular general purpose micro-controller with good mix of I/O.
- Freescale Coldfire – Mid-range micro originally created as a replacement for the popular 68000 and CPU 32 architecture from Motorola. Used in price-sensitive applications that need good I/O and power.
- Intel Atom – Created by Intel for low-power instruments, devices, handsets. Competes with ARM.
- TI DSP (TMS, OMAP) – Created by Texas Instruments as a general purpose DSP (Digital Signal Processor). Excels at high-speed mathematical, filters, calculations, etc.
- ARC – Special-purpose micro used in Instruments and devices.
- Analog Devices DSP (Blackfin, Sharc) - General purpose DSP created by Analog Devices.
