If you are thinking about doing any home renovation projects that involve starting from scratch, you're going to need a solid base before building any new structures.
Concrete slabs are also very commonly used for patios and driveways since they prove a durable outdoor surface.
A concrete slab is a common base used in many parts of the world for structures or a solid floor. When you pull up an old carpet, and there is concrete underneath, you're looking at a concrete slab.
Find Qualified Concrete Professionals in Your Area
A standard grey concrete slab typically costs $700 – $3,000, let's explore what affects the cost.
Types of Concrete Slab
There are three popular types of concrete slab: monolithic, post-tensioned or engineered, and slabs with foundation walls.
A monolithic concrete slab has footing which is lower than the floor area to improve its sturdiness. This footing is reinforced depending on local regulations and the specific conditions of the soil.
Post-tensioned or engineered slab is merely a form of monolithic slab with the extra feature of steel cables. The cables are arranged in lines that go through the slab. When it dries, the cables are stretched and attached at each end.
They add strength to the existing slab because of the tension applied when attached. This results in a slab which is stronger and more resistant to cracking.
Slabs with foundation walls then, are poured directly into a pre-built wall as opposed to a form. Because of this, additional components such as piers or post holes are often used to provide extra support, particularly when the foundation walls are very deep.
The Cost of a Concrete Slab
Unless you know the dimensions of the area that needs to be filled with concrete slab, it can be difficult to obtain an estimate of the cost.
Professional concrete contractors in your area can measure and estimate the cost of the project. This will give you an initial figure to work with.
If you're comfortable measuring the project, then you can get a rough cost estimate without calling a pro.
Think about what the concrete slab will be used for and the weather conditions in your area. Both of these factors will determine the strength of concrete you need.
Moreover, if you live in an area that has freeze and thaw cycles in winter, you need to order specialized concrete with air trapped in it. The standard thing to ask for in this case is 5 percent air entrapment. The air trapped in the concrete prevents the concrete from expanding and contracting due to severe temperature fluctuations. The heat and cold are trapped by the air, protecting the concrete from damage.
The standard strength of concrete for any weight-bearing structural projects is 4,000 psi. The average price of this type of concrete is $115 per cubic yard.
How Much Concrete Do You Need
But how do you find out how many cubic yards of concrete you need? This is where the dimensions of the area are vital to carry out your calculations.
Residential building codes require a minimum 4-inch thickness. Always make sure you know the building regulations in your area so that you can make sure your project complies fully.
To calculate a cubic yard of concrete, multiply the length, width, and depth of the concrete you need. The depth, as mentioned, is 4 inches, and the length and width are determined by measuring the area that needs to be filled.
Make sure all dimensions are in the same measurement (usually feet). Thus, you will multiply the thickness as 0.33 feet as 4 inches is one-third of a foot.
Multiplying the dimensions together gives you the number of cubic feet. Divide this result by 27 to determine the cubic yards needed. Use a concrete calculator to simplify this calculation.
But this only tells us how much the material costs. Pouring concrete is not a task suitable for a beginner, as mistakes can be truly detrimental. How much does it cost to hire a professional to pour the concrete slab?
Labor Costs
The average cost of pouring concrete is anywhere from $1.36 to $4.99 per square foot. Thus, let's take an approximate median and assume labor costs to be $3 per square foot. This means that 400 square feet could cost $1,200 for labor.
Additional Costs
When pouring a slab, a rebar grid is needed to strengthen the concrete and prevent cracking. This will require rebar and tie wire to connect the grid. Use our rebar calculator to estimate the amount of rebar needed for the grid.
Forms and form stakes will also be needed to prepare the project and get clean edges on the slab.
Staining, Stamping, and Fine Finishes
Adding a decorative finish to a concrete slab can increase the cost significantly. Some options for finishing a concrete slab are staining and a smooth surface for a finished floor application. Exterior slabs can be colored and stamped to beautify the surface.
Textures and colors are a great way to enhance the look of a patio. Learn more about concrete patio costs.
Stained and Colored Concrete
Staining concrete can add a beautiful finish and add a depth of color beyond the standard grey finish. Most contractors charge $4 to $10 per square foot to prep, stain, and seal the surface.
Stamped Concrete
It's possible to add a decorative finish to a concrete slab to add texture and an enhanced look. It's possible to stamp concrete to look like brick, flagstone, rough stone, or even a wood floor. Stamping concrete can cost $4 to $8 per square foot depending on the intricacy of the design.
Smooth Finishes
Adding a smoother finish to a slab can take additional time and labor, which increases the price. This can be desirable when the concrete surface will be used as the finished floor.
Concrete Sealer
Adding a sealer can prolong the life of a concrete slab and help prevent staining. Concrete is pourous and a sealer will fill those holes and add a protective layer to the finish of a slab. Adding a sealer can cost $1 to $2 per square foot.

More Details on Qnasl Indications
Related MultimediaClick on an icon to view.
How Does It Work?Allergies occur when the body's immune system reacts to a normally harmless substance -- one that does not bother most people. This immune system reaction is known as inflammation, and involves several different types of cells and several different chemicals in the body.
Qnasl is a corticosteroid, or simply "steroid" for short. Steroids can have many different effects in the body, including anti-inflammatory effects. Steroids decrease inflammation by limiting the body's ability to produce an immune system reaction. They can be quite effective at treating conditions such as allergies.
However, long-term use of steroids can cause bothersome and sometimes serious side effects, and this limits the usefulness of many steroids. Because Qnasl is a nasal spray, its effects are generally limited to the nose. This helps prevent many of the long-term steroidal side effects.
Although Qnasl is a steroid, it is not the same type of steroid used to enhance athletic performance or to increase muscle mass. These steroids are completely different from the type used in nasal sprays like Qnasl.
Is It Safe for Children to Use Qnasl?Qnasl is approved to treat nasal allergies in children as young as 12 years old. Talk to your healthcare provider about the benefits and risks of using Qnasl in children.
Off-Label Qnasl UsesOn occasion, a healthcare provider may recommend this product for something other than nasal allergies. This is called an "off-label" use. Some off-label uses of nasal steroids, such as Qnasl, include treatment of the following conditions:
- Nasal polyps
- Nasal symptoms not caused by allergies (known as nonallergic rhinitis).

Officials with the Pittsburgh Police Department have stated that four or five of the officers will be place on 'modified duty' because they currently have criminal charges on their record, even though the officers were never convicted of the crimes.
The officers will likely move to desk jobs and will not be able to wear uniforms or perform daily tasks until they each have the records expunged.
Once their records are expunged, the officers will be able to return to normal working schedules. The deputy chief for the law enforcement agency stated that many of the charges were said to be domestic violence related.
If you or a loved one is need of an expungement to clear your record, contact the Dallas expungement lawyers of the Law Office of Mark T. Lassiter by calling 214-845-7007 today.

A registered sex offender was arrested Wednesday after he allegedly exposed himself to a resident of Century Village in unincorporated West Palm Beach, according to an arrest report.
Eric Scott Probel is facing a charge of indecent exposure. Probel, 61, was released from the Palm Beach County Jail on his own recognizance.
The alleged indecent exposure took place on May 8 by the community pool at Century Village, the report said. A 61-year-old woman told Palm Beach County Sheriff's deputies that Probel was sitting in a chair on the other side of the pool wearing shorts when he spread his legs and exposed his genitals.
According to the arrest report, Probel's shorts "were designed for quick exposure of his genitalia as they split, by design, from his waist to well beyond his private parts."
The woman said she became enraged and Probel reacted by leaving the area. After seeing Probel again the next day, the woman searched the Florida Department of Law Enforcement's sexual offender web site and found Probel was listed. That's when she contacted law enforcement.
According to the FDLE, Probel was found guilty in January 1999 of possession of child pornography.
The arrest report does not detail why Probel was not arrested until Wednesday.

by Julie
I tripped over a Chinese rug and nearly passed out. I went to the hospital after a week of keeping my foot raised and not putting any weight on it. I plunged it into cold water every two hours and strapped it with crepe bandage. It swelled like a barrage balloon the next morning.
I had three x rays at hospital and was told that it wasn't broken but badly sprained and to keep off it a further two weeks. They strapped it up forcing my toes towards my leg and told me to keep that on for three days. I continued to do RICE and kept off it for a further four weeks as it was still swollen and bruised by the heel and along the side of foot by the ankle was extremely tender.
It was tender to touch along the top of the foot also where thee was yellow bruising and a smarting sensation by the heel. I also continued to spray it with arnica which helped with the swelling. In the last week I have put the water jets on in the bath as this was not possible before as the foot was too tender. I can move my toes and move it backwards and forwards but the heel is still swollen and bruised slightly, although this is less so.
I have also been using warm water treatment in the last week and this seems to help it considerably and also lightly massaging it with arnica oil.
My concern is should I put weight on it now and ease myself into walking properly as it has been five weeks? I have managed to do slight exercises with the foot and I can move my toes freely and move the foot up and down and to the side. My concern is that it is still swollen by the heel and I am still experiencing a smarting almost like someone is pricking my foot with a needle sensation on occasion by the heel. It is still slightly swollen by the ankle also.
The photograph is of my foot three days after spraining my foot and before the bruising came out by the heel and at the side of the foot.I would say it has reduced by 80%. When it is not in a raised position it goes red and starts swelling on top of the foot and towards the toes.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards
That's a beauty, Julie!
I think you can probably safely assume there's nothing broken. Xrays of ankles are notoriously difficult; if you are still concerned you'll have to ask for a CT. But probably three different radiologists, if one was concerned he would already have recommended a scan.
You're doing the right things but it was obviously a very bad injury. It's obviously improving, albeit slowly.
My main concern is that after five weeks you are still getting sharp stabs; that probably means you have subluxated one of the ankle joints, probably the subtalar is down by the heel.
It's very important you make the ankle move now, preferably non weight bearing. Do the alphabet exercises you'll find at Chiropractic Help regularly.
If you continue to have those sharp stabs then start looking for a chiropractor who works with feet. Take the xrays with you. Probably best to keep using a crutch.
Get rid of the Chinese carpet!
I hope this contributes.

Interesting challenges of the day
1. Mr S is a 76 year old man with neck pain of some 9 months duration. Luckily, most of the discomfort is upper cervical which is only rarely arthritic; his lower cervical spine is a degenerative mess that I've left alone. After seven treatments his pain and stiffness is 50 percent better, and he's happy in the circumstances. He can sleep through the night now and that makes a huge difference.
2. Mr P is 32 year old man with very severe lower back pain radiating to the big toe which is 30 percent numb. He had an episode three weeks ago, took anti inflammatories and was soon better as is typical of the medial disc herniation. But before it healed, after a trivia it came roaring back, much worse. The characteristic crossed sign was evident; sitting in a chair, straightening the right leg provoked severe left back pain and tingling in the leg. He's doing well.
3. Severe lower back pain is scary; just ask Mrs P. Just watching her get out of the car I she was in trouble; she had a slipped disc at L4 making her lean towards the opposite side; luckily she had no pain in the leg. Despite family pressure that this was far too severe for a chiropractor, she persevered. Within five days she was standing upright, and after two weeks almost painfree.
Despite a hectic job, she wisely took my advice and stayed home for what I call exercising bed rest.
4. Mr S has had lower back, groin and back of thigh and calf pain for fourth months.
He has a pincer deformity in the hip causing the stabs in the groin, and a degenerative facet causing the sciatica. Both are responding well to chiropractic and he's well pleased; sixty five percent better after three treatments.
5. Mr T is a wise man; he's taken a warning TIA seriously and has lost 15 pounds, and has at least as much again to lose. A change to a low starch diet and half hour daily walk has made the difference; but the walking is making his foot and back miserable. The expensive orthotic is hopeless; luckily his hips and back are fine, but he needs a simple heel lift.
6. I too have had serious lower back issues, luckily fixed by my own chiropractor; so I too have to do my exercises, take care when lifting supers full of honey, gardening and using the chainsaw. Regaining the function of your spine is just as important as the pain.
7. My own granddaughter, only 7 is hypermobile giving her pelvic, knee and ankle issues. Xrays show a mildly dysplastic hip. Years ago we would have called it growing pains. She too regularly needs chiropractic care and luckily responds well. Increased range of motion is more difficult than too stiff in my opinion. Our care is for kids too.
8. This 65 year old lady is a serious gardener; every day she is bending, lifting and digging for 2 to 3 hours a day. It regularly catches her in the sacroiliac joint, so she has a treatment once a month that sorts it out. She does her lower back exercises faithfully.
9. This 88 year old lady is an inspiration; every day she is busy in the community. With a nasty scoliosis she manages very well with a chiropractic adjustment every six weeks and exercises faithfully done.
10. Mr X is a 71 year old retired man who wants to continue with maintenance care every six to eight weeks; he had suffered from two years of lower back pain when he first came a year ago. He has no discomfort now after 8 chiropractic treatments, but is aware that danger lurks.
11. Mrs C has been having severe headaches, and taking a lot of analgesics. It's a non complicated upper cervical facet syndrome, and she's doing well.
12. Mr D is a 38 old year man with chronic shoulder pain after a rotator cuff tear playing cricket. It responded well to treatment, but he knows he must do his exercises every day; for two years he couldn't sleep on that shoulder.
13. Mr D, a 71 year old man, has a severe ache in the shoulder and midback since working above his head. Trapped nerve tests are negative but he has advanced degenerative joints of Luschka; after just two treatments he is 50 percent better. Can we reach 90?
And so the day goes; chiropractors shouldn't be treating the elderly most medical sites state but that's so much bunkum.
Have a problem that's not getting better? Looking for a different slant on your pain? Want to pose a question?

Knowing that up to 70% of the time the correct diagnosis is made with no examination, no special tests, no xrays, but just from the history, there's a fair chance I can add some insight to your unresolved problem. But at least 30% of the time, I may be quite wrong! Give plenty of detail if you want a sensible reply.
You visited this chiropractic help site no doubt because you have a problem that is not resolving and want to know more about what chiropractors do.
The quickest and most interesting way is to read one of my ebooks of anecdotes. Described by a reader as gems, both funny and healthful, from the life and work of a chiropractor, you'll love them. Priced right at $2.99, though Kindle fiddles the price without telling me.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (3/10/16)--The importance of investing in youth financial literacy was brought to the attention of a recent California State Assembly legislative hearing.
Tena Lozano, executive director of the Richard Myles Johnson Foundation and chair of the California JumpStart Coalition, testified before a joint hearing hosted by the Select Committee on Youth and California's Future and the Banking and Finance Committee, according to the California and Nevada Credit Union League's CU Weekly (March 7).
"We need to find a way to ensure that every student graduates high school with the ability to manage their own finances, whether they are headed into college, vocational school, or straight into the workforce," Lozano said.
Assemblyman Ian Calderon (D-Whittier), chair of the select committee, and Assemblyman Matt Dababneh (D- Encino), chair of the banking committee, discussed how important financial education is to the future of California. They said the state needs to take steps to provide more young adults with basic tools in financial education before they graduate.
Lozano said many organizations--from credit unions to Junior Achievement--are willing and able to help teach these lessons to children statewide.
The Richard Myles Johnson Foundation specializes in Bite of Reality financial simulation fairs that give students an interactive learning experience.

Isn't entrepreneur just a fancy way of saying business owner? In some cases, yes.
But anyone can be a business owner. What sets entrepreneurs apart from those who simply start a businesses is how they manage the business and what they do to keep it growing.
Today I've asked Anita Campbell, CEO of BizSugar, to give you three things you can do to make the transition from business owner to entrepreneur.
1. Network
One of the most effective business-building methods you can employ is networking.
People have been starting and running businesses for years, and they all have a lot more experience than you do as a new entrepreneur. If you're not tapping into the rich vein of advice your fellow entrepreneurs can offer, you're missing out.
One way to network online is become a member of a good business networking site. You'll be able to connect with other business owners in your industry, ask interesting questions to entrepreneurs, and build relationships that may help your business grow down the line. And once you've established yourself, you can return the favor by helping those who come after you.
Establishing yourself as an expert in the space will create even more positive marketing for your business. Don't discount the power of networking when starting your business.
Make time for it.
2. Control Spending
The day you get your first corporate credit card in the mail can be both exhilarating and terrifying. You hold a lot of spending power in your hands, and making the wrong choices can permanently damage your business.
Some people start a business and begin treating the corporate coffers as their own personal checking account. It happens more often than you might think, and is a big reason many businesses fail. If you want to move from being a business owner to an entrepreneur, you have to get control of your spending.
Successful entrepreneurs are frugal, sometimes to a fault. With the numerous free resources available on the Internet today, it can sometimes be difficult to justify spending.
Why pay for document creation software when free suites can be downloaded at the click of a button?
There are a few areas where you don't want to compromise—accounting software, for example—but finding ways to save money and put it back into the business is what keeps a company not just afloat, but growing.
3. Hire Smart
You'll be able to get away with doing everything on your own for a while, but you'll eventually reach a point where running your business is too much for just one person.
You'll need to hire staff, whether it's just one other person, or a few employees to create a team. Hiring—and firing—are two of the most crucial decisions you will ever make throughout the life of your business. They can also be the most difficult.
A business owner will hire people to fill positions and get the work done, but may not consider the effect just one person can have on a growing business.
An entrepreneur, on the other hand, looks for someone who can do more than just accomplish certain tasks.
You started a business because you have a passion for what you do, and goals you want to accomplish. Seek out employees who share your vision, and have the ability—and flexibility—to not only get things done, but roll with the many changes that will occur as your business grows.
Startups need people with initiative, ideas, creativity, and above all, a good attitude. You're the boss, but you never know when someone you hire may come up with a great idea to improve the business. Look for those kinds of qualities, and don't hire based solely on a list of accomplishments on a résumé.
The Point
It really comes down to making good choices, using all the resources available to you, and planning for the long term.
Only then will you be around long enough to graduate from business owner to entrepreneur..

Erik Ole Jørgensen (b. August 27th 1925 - d. September 23rd 2002) came from an artistic craftsman's family. His father was a furniture upholsterer, and his grandfather Hans Peder Jørgensen was a wood carver who carried out many great works for the best carpenter of the times, I. P. Mørck.
After his appreticeship, Erik Ole Jørgensen studied as an upholstrer in furniture design with teachers like Børge Mogensen and Hans J. Wegner, and as a guest at the Academy of Fine Arts under Kaare Klint.
In the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s, he designed a wide range of simple and functional furniture that placed him among the best furniture makers in the period. From 1947 to 1953 he participated in Snedkerlaugets Autumn Exhibition, where several of his furniture earned 1st prize.
In 1952, Erik Ole Jørgensen took over the father's furniture upholstering company, which (until the 1980s) was continued under the name Georg Jørgensen & Søn, who then produced many of the furniture Erik Ole Jørgensen drew. The theater at Trinity University, Texas was furnished in 1965 with 800 chairs.
In the 1970s, Erik Ole Jørgensen started a collaboration with two of the largest Danish furniture manufacturers, namely FDB and Erik Jørgensen Furniture Factory, where his furniture got classical status.

Card Share: Bloom
Once again, I used the April Swag Bag from Paper Issues and paired some of the 3x4 papers with the Simple Stories I Am collection.
The acrylic accents are from Color Cast Designs. I've been buying more and more of Jessica's products. They work perfectly on both cards and layouts and come in the prettiest of colors. If you stop by her shop, be sure to tell her I sent you. I don't get a kick back or anything. I just like to share when I find products I love.

Dietetics Director Receives Outstanding Educator Award
Pocatello- Laura McKnight has been selected as the 2017 Outstanding Dietetic Educator for a Didactic Program in Dietetics in her region. The award recognizes the teaching, mentoring and leadership activities of faculty and preceptors in dietetics education programs accredited by the Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics. McKnight was selected by a committee of her peers from the Nutrition and Dietetic Educators and Preceptors Group in recognition of her years of service preparing students to become dietitians. It was one of McKnight's former students and now fellow faculty member, Char Byington, who nominated her for the award.
"Under Laura's teaching and advising, I along with numerous students became Registered Dietitians who look back to our undergraduate program with wonderful memories of a professor who served as the foundation to our career through her excellent teaching and compassion for every one of us," said Byington.
McKnight has been a Registered Dietitian since 1987 after earning her degree from Idaho State University and completing a dietetic internship at the VA Medical Center in Salt Lake City, Utah. She began teaching at ISU in 1994, earned her Master of Public Health degree in 1999 and became the Director of Dietetic Programs in 2008. McKnight says in those 23 years, she has fond memories of the many students who have gone through the program.
"I enjoy mentoring the students and challenging them to reach their potential. I love the 'ah ha' moments when you see the connections between a classroom topic and an experiential learning application," McKnight said. "As I head in to the twilight of my teaching career, I am honored and humbled for these awards and to have made a difference in students' lives and the profession of dietetics."
In the past year, McKnight has also received the 2016 June Yerrington Award from the Idaho Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics as well as the Phi Upsilon Omicron 2016 National Bachtel-Holbrook Collegiate Advisor Award. She was selected for this most recent award out of a pool of Didactic Program in Dietetics instructors from Idaho, California, Washington, Oregon, Montana, Wyoming, Alaska and Hawaii. A Didactic Program in Dietetics (DPD) is defined as a program designed to meet the foundational knowledge for dietetics practice. Graduates of a DPD can then apply to a Dietetic Internship which leads to eligibility for the registration examination for dietitians.

Chicago's loss to Denver was like a punch in the stomach that you saw coming but couldn't stop. But there were some players who stood out more than others.
Grizzly Bears -- the Bears who tamed the bucking Broncos
Israel Idonije -- Though he was angry at himself for not blocking the game-winning field goal, Izzy was the star on defense. He blocked a field goal, recovered a fumble, and made four tackles.
Craig Steltz -- The blonde from LSU makes this list again for stepping up when the Bears have to deal with an injury. He had a sack, five tackles, and forced a fumble.
Adam Podlesh -- Punters are rarely noticed, but in a game that is scoreless until late in the third quarter, punters are crucial. Podlesh had 11 punts, getting four inside the 20 and averaging 47.8.
Robbie Gould -- The Bears know they can count on Robbie Gould because he is one of the league's most reliable kickers. But from 57 yards? Even in the thin air of Denver, it seemed improbable. Somehow, Gould hit that field goal, breaking the Bears franchise record.
Teddy Bears -- the Bears who were trampled
Marion Barber -- The worst part of Barber's gaffes late in the game is that they covered up his best performance as a Bear. Barber had 108 yards on 27 carries. He was the only offensive player to make a difference in the game. But before you get angry about his run out of bounds and fumble, consider this: Barber is a third-down back who was thrown into the spot of No. 1 back because of Matt Forte's injury. He hasn't carried the ball more than 25 times since Oct. 26, 2008. An exhausted man making mistakes late in the game should shock no one.
Offensive line -- Hey, remember when they had two sack-free games? Me too. That was awesome. Yesterday? They allowed four.
Mike Martz -- Watching the Broncos win with their second-string quarterback should make Martz's stomach turn. Denver changed their game plan to fit the personnel. Martz is nowhere near as nimble; his only way to deal with the loss of Matt Forte and Jay Cutler is to double Barber's carries in one week. Hanie threw the ball just 19 times.
Who Stuck Out in Last-Minute Loss?
Chicago's loss to Denver was like a punch in the stomach that you saw coming but couldn't stop. But there were some players who stood out more than others.

We have a wedding to attend this weekend, so I needed a card. Lately, I'm really enjoying the mix of black, white, and gold. I figured it would make a great color combo for a wedding card.
I started with DCWV's Modern Metallic Stack. The stack has a ton of beautiful black and white, black and gold, and solid gold papers in it. It's super yummy! The pops of shiny gold metallic make for a really elegant wedding card.
I wanted to keep it elegant but simple, so I grabbed a Mr. & Mrs. sticker and a Happily ever after sticker from SRM's Stickers By the Dozen Wedding sticker sheet to uses as sentiments. I thought they fit well with the overall modern feel of the card.
The final touch for this card is a handmade matching envelope. The little heart pattern is perfect for an envelope for a wedding card!

1000 Horsepower Rail Safety
The Government of South Australia, Department of Transport, Energy and Infrastructure, is running "1000 Horsepower", a television commercial designed to remind road users about the danger of level railway crossings. 1000 horses run in four directions, tied to one desperate man in the middle. Level crossings in metropolitan and many country towns are equipped with flashing lights and several also have boom gates, but many crossings on country roads have only basic railway crossing signage. Regardless of the level of safety warning devices, level crossings must be approached with care at all times. See more on the Safer Level Crossings campaign.

[What could Miami's 2019 NFL draft class look like?]
His assistant coaches are on the road recruiting this month, and since head coaches cannot visit schools, Mark Richt has a little time to daydream.
He recently found himself in his staff meeting room, looking at his 2018 depth chart. The names he saw on the dry-erase board, grouped together by position, made him visualize heated position battles that will begin when Miami returns for fall practice in August.
"I've just got a big grin on my face," Richt said, recalling the moment in a Tuesday interview on WQAM.
What gets him juiced, aside from the indoor practice facility that opens in late July, is an impending infusion of talent and depth. This summer, UM's lines get a boost with graduate transfers Tennessee guard Venzell Boulware and Illinois defensive tackle Tito Odenigbo. The tight end room adds four-star recruits Brevin Jordan — ranked No. 1 at his position — and Will Mallory. Receiver Mark Pope is a tantalizing prospect. The Hurricanes, trying to rebuild their roster after an attrition-heavy few seasons, will field close to a full team.
"The numbers will be up for sure, and the skill level and the competition level's going to be tremendous," Richt said. "I'm very excited about it. That's what made Miami great in the past. A bunch of great players competing every day against each other. I think we're going to have enough dudes to make plays and really compete well."
After going 10-3 and winning the ACC Coastal, Miami could keep rising.
Especially if its quarterback play is solid.
Richt has demanded more from incumbent starter Malik Rosier, who enters his redshirt senior year trying to strengthen his grip on the No. 1 job. If Miami opened the season against LSU on Tuesday, and not Sept. 2, the starter "would be Malik," Richt said. "And it ought to be Malik. We'll see if he can continue this summer and knock it out in camp."
Richt is hopeful redshirt freshmen N'Kosi Perry and Cade Weldon and true freshman Jarren Williams will compete hard enough to make Rosier better, and the coach's decision difficult.
Richt has made positive comments about Rosier's ability to run the offense ( He can "go from a bad play to a good play, and a good play to a great play," Richt said Tuesday), but the coach would be overjoyed if Rosier was a more accurate passer. In the spring, Rosier "threw the ball pretty well," Richt said. "It wasn't unbelievable but no one's perfect. … He really had a good spring.
"The other guys, the good news is, N'Kosi is learning a lot more, getting better at what he's doing. He's a very talented passer [and] runner. Weldon missed a couple of practices with an eye infection but when he came back he put back-to-back practices together [and] practiced extremely well. And Jarren Williams is a guy that has come in and quite frankly he's a better passer than I thought he was. He's throwing some dimes out there. He's not quite sure who to throw it to half the time, but when he throws it at something, he tends to hit it."
Richt said the backup job is "open." He remains encouraged by Rosier, but he isn't handing him the starting spot yet.
"I'd love to say this guy's No. 1, this guy's a solid No. 2, and these other guys are battling for playing time or they may redshirt and all that kind of thing. We're not there right now. I'd love to go through the whole summer and know 100 percent who the guy is. Really, Malik is the guy, and he's got to act that way throughout the summer with the leadership role that the quarterbacks take in the summer (when coaches have limited time with players), and he will. He did last summer. He'll do it again.
"I have all the faith and confidence that we're going to have a great summer with his leadership and the other guys can start growing up a little bit more and take more ownership of it."
A depth chart full of "dudes" hopes that happens.
"If you come to Miami, you'd better come to compete and earn your playing time," he said, "because we're going to have some boys that can ball out."
Heading west: Richt's assistants are trying to add to a class presently ranked 10th in the nation by 247Sports. "We'll be all over the state," he said. "We'll be all over the country really. If we have kids that are interested in us, we'll go as far as Oregon if we need to." That was a reference to four-star quarterback Michael Johnson Jr., from Eugene, Ore. Johnson, rated No. 4 among dual-threat QBs, is Miami's top choice this cycle. Other top West Coast players UM wants, per 247, include four-star cornerback Chris Steele (Bellflower, Calif.) and five-star defensive end Kayvon Thibodeaux, the top-ranked player in the country.
"We know it's not over until it's over, until signing day," Richt said. "Everyone continues to work a kid. And a lot happens between now and signing day. Seasons go great, seasons go bad. Guys turn pro at their position, all of a sudden they're more interested. Coaches leave and go to another job. You have to keep banging away at the guys you want, fight until the very last minute. The good news is, the battles we are having are against some of the greatest schools in America, which is who we should be battling with."
Richt on Norton: WQAM host Joe Rose asked Richt if the NFL Draft decision of defensive tackle Kendrick Norton, who expected to be selected in the early rounds but fell to the seventh (242nd overall), was "agent-driven, family-driven." Richt declined to say.
"There's a lot of reasons why guys decide to go," Richt said. "The long and short of it is he felt it was time to become a pro. He felt like he was going to get drafted, and no one knows for sure when they'll get drafted. Kendrick, like everybody else, we try to get them as much information from the NFL as we can. as far as what scouts say, what GMs might say, what a coach might say, and put it in front of them, let them look at it, and see what's real.
"The good news is he got drafted. He has a chance to make a living doing it and hopefully he does well."

Time+Space are excited to announce a new partnership with UK sample library developers 'Freshtone'.
Freshtone Samples features the work of producer musicians Matthew Corbett and Mike Wilkie who are best known in the world of samples for their work with Zero-G, including 'Sounds of the Seventies', 'Vocal Forge' and 'Vocal Foundry' which were all released to critical acclaim. They are also successful Film, TV and Production music writers with their tracks having been featured on many hundreds of productions around the world.
Time+Space has been appointed as the official worldwide distributor of Freshtone's sample libraries and are pleased to announce the first release – Lost Tapes Vol 1 – which is available now as a DVD or download.
43 Funk and Soul construction kits, all recorded to tape using only mics, instruments and equipment from the sixties and seventies
Lost Tapes Volume 1 resonates with the textural sensations of an age, with that human touch – spontaneous and exciting. 43 choice cuts featuring the instruments, and the playing style of the era, with the gestures of soul, pure and funky, and sounds of the ghosts of pop's past.
In WAV, Aiff, Acid WAV and Rex 2 format, Lost Tapes was recorded in a unique environment. The tracks were played on a wide range of sixties instruments from legendary manufacturers such as Burns, Baldwin and Dan Electro into vintage Selmer and Vox amplification.
Premier and Ludwig kits also from that decade were recorded using a selection of rare ribbon mics and old tone wheel Hammond B3 and A100 organs further evoke the past. All tracks were recorded onto an old Studer 1" tape machine via an EMI Redd desk which once resided in the famous Decca Studios.
The result is a refreshing, genuinely authentic collection of old skool tracks that evoke a bygone era and genuinely capture the spirit of the age. These wonderful loops will enable writers and producers to sculpt some classic tunes, so enjoy!
Available now as a DVD, or download exclusively from Time+Space!

Happy MLB opening week sport fans! Good luck to the Chicago White Sox and Cubs as they kick off the 2014 baseball season! Make it your goal to not only have a winning season but a pain free season! If you suffer from back pain and plan on attending numerous Cubs and White Sox games it's important to keep the following tips in mind. The problem is that stadium seats and bleachers are not very comfortable or supportive for your back. Especially bleacher seats since they have no back support whatsoever.

Chicago Bear Super Bowl Champ, Hall of Famer and Illinois Back Institute patient Dan Hampton had suffer with back pain due to the beatings he took for playing 12 years of professional football. In 1979, Dan was a rookie trying to prove himself. He was up against one of the best, Jackie Slater. When Dan went to tackle him he felt a large amount of pain going down his leg.

- The fundamental principle is what we call the chain reaction.
- The secondary principle has to do with functional movement which occurs during the golf swing.
The first principle for Tiger is the effect of changes in the chain reaction. What does that mean? Movement of the body is the result of chain reactions; specific movement will cause other reactions both up the chain and down the chain. It's like the old saying "the foot bone is connected to the leg bone, and the leg bone is connected to the knee bone." The sport of golf entails explosive movements of the golf swing and we need all our muscle doing what they should be doing at the right time and if not the result is a breakdown in the chain reaction.

Carrying any heavy bag strains your posture and is a common cause of back pain. Having a golf bag overloaded with clubs can weigh as much as 35 pounds. Limit the weight of any bag you carry to no more than 10% of your body weight. If you can't lighten your bag protect your back by using a pull-cart bag on the golf course and by buying the lightest golf bag that you can. Make sure to do stretching exercises before and after your golf game to help prevent back pain.

Summer is here and is a great time for different sporting events. The problem is that stadium seats and bleachers are not very comfortable or supportive for your back. If possible, bring your own seating to the game or a seat cushion if you have to sit in bleachers or stadium seats. If you can bring any type of portable product that provides support to your lower back while sitting will help.

I'm sorry I've been gone. I had a wonderful, lazy birthday last week. I wore my new red birthday jammies to bed and got up on Friday and let the dogs out. Then I let the dogs in. Then I wished I hadn't. Guess who messed with a guess what – FOR THE 3RD TIME! This time was the charm for the skunk. Lexi took a direct hit. Gagging and foaming at the mouth right onto my brand new red birthday jammies!! Oh my Lord, the smell!!!!! And Joel had come home on my birthday to spend the weekend and he got to enjoy a cold, skunky house. At least he was so glad to be home that he didn't mind too much. The last of the smell lingers in the laundry room and I am only so thankful that the sewing room was moved OUT of there.
Joel was very impressed with the shelves that Kristen and I put up and when he did a Lowe's run on Saturday to get lumber for the base of the new pond dock, we picked up the lattice for the back of the shelves in the sewing room. We will definitely need to work on the lighting down there; even with 3 lamps it's a little dim.
Friday night Karra and I went work-clothes shopping with our friend, Penny. We overwhelmed the new career girl! We both would say, "just buy it to get the great price now and you can always return it." She only had so much money and it flustered her not to know how much she was spending. I'll be returning some things for her and I told her whatever is over her budget we will pick up the tab for her. We had a good time other than that and Karra was satisfied with her purchases. She looked so professional as she headed off on her first day of work.
Monday I took Luke for a walk at the park and I could still walk yesterday!! He didn't tire as easy, but he insisted on smelling every stick he peed on the week before. He did excellent with other dogs and bike riders. The only dog he growled at looked just like him! Silly puppy. We passed a couple when we were almost back to the parking lot and he just laid down in the grass like, I'm so beat. I wish like crazy I could take him today, but I'm too busy. Yesterday Kurt got his lower braces on and the rams went to the butcher. We loaded up the old van and drove away. I was kind of heavy hearted all day and tried really hard not to think of sweet Toulouse having to go there. What's done is done and it's the reason that we kept them. And it appears that Moe managed to nail Honeysuckle ahead of their group meet-up. She looks ready to explode! We're thinking another week at the most. Men – they always find a way, don't they?
Also on Monday I fell for an online scam. I can't believe I was so stupid!! An alarm started going off on my laptop and completely freaked me out. I called the number that came up in the warning box – STUPID!!! Vaguely, in the back of my mind, I thought, is this really Microsoft? The guy was so nice and gave me his name and technician number and the name of the company and I STUPIDLY let him run a remote diagnostic on my laptop and make the alarm go off. When he said I had a firewall breech and he could fix it remotely for $200, I said, "you know, I have a friend that's a computer guru (Penny's friend really) and I'll have him take a look and see what he thinks." And the guy was so nice and said I shouldn't use my laptop until I got it cleaned up and de-bugged. AND THE WHOLE THING WAS A SCAM!! At least I had the presence of mind NOT to give up a credit card number. It's really creepy how people can just jump into your laptop like that. Penny's friend has my baby (laptop baby) all better and she didn't think he'd found any viruses on it which makes me so grateful – still feeling extremely stupid, but grateful. And there's a nice, yummy cherry pie cooling on the counter for him 😀
As I stood at the kitchen sink, pitting cherries and making pie crust I couldn't help but think how nice it will be to look out the window and see the garden going again. We're going to put in the grape vines this year and I'm hoping to plant raspberry and blackberry vines as well. This 50 degree weather in February has got my gardening juices going!! We had thunder and lightening last night!! And we could see a few flurries tomorrow. What a crazy winter. But at least I didn't have to wash my van – just parked it outside last night. I'm so brilliant NOT!!!
And That's What's Happening on the Hobby Farm

Have you had problems with your housing?

Bad mould? Leaking roof, or made homeless? We want to hear from you if you have had any problems with housing.
According to analysis of the English Housing Survey, 20pc of private rented homes in East England have category one hazards, which can include mould, no heating, and exposed wiring.
A bill is currently going through Parliament to give tenants more powers in disputes with landlords.
Called the Fitness for Human Habitation Bill, it would give tenants the power to take landlords to court if their homes are unsafe.
In Norfolk the number of affordable homes built sunk to a record low in 2015/16.
Meanwhile, the number of rough sleepers has increased. Experts met at a conference in Norwich in January to work out solutions to the rise.

Estate Planning: 10 Things That Make the Road to Heaven Smoother
Death snuck up on my mother-in-law. On New Year's Eve, she was out with eight of her widowed friends until after 1 a.m. and 15 days later, we held the funeral service. For at least the next six months, we're going to be sorting through the confusion, trying to decide what Mom would have wanted.
If you're a mom (or a dad), vow not to put your kids through this kind of hell when you go to heaven. Here are 10 pieces of estate planning information they'll need to put you and your affairs to rest.1. Sign a medical power of attorney. And choose someone you trust to carry it out. It's far better for you and the people who love you if you've made critical decisions about aggressive treatment for pain or resuscitation before the time comes.
2. Decide the toughest stuff well in advance. Do you want to be buried or cremated? What do you want done with what's left of you? If you want a viewing, what do you want to wear?
3. Make a will. Dying without a will means that your family will have to rely on the court to divvy up your belongings. Not only is the cost of having a judge manage this process exorbitant, the judge doesn't know who wanted what.
4. Be smart about what you leave behind. Put money in trust for the offspring who can't manage on his own. Leave the house to the offspring who wants to live there. Manage your affairs so the children from your first marriage aren't cut out of the money. Consider the tax consequences and how the people who inherit your money will pay them.
5. Make a list. Detail where you put your will and power of attorney. Include how to find the key to your safety box, the combination to your safe and the pass codes for your email, website and other key online information.
6. File your important papers. Having the title to the house and the car handy, as well as paperwork for annuities, insurance policies, pensions, bank accounts, savings bonds, CDs, etc., will make life much easier for the people you leave behind.
7. Keep your address book up to date. Make sure your loved ones have phone numbers and addresses for all the important people in your life, including the ladies in the bridge group, your cousin in Minnesota, and the name of your accountant.
8. Don't hide things. If you tape money to the bottoms of drawers or stuff your jewelry under the floor boards, everyone will go crazy trying to find it.
9. Share your knowledge. Talk about your memories, your secrets and the family history while you're still around and can answer questions.
10. Don't delay. Tell people you love them before it's too late.

My video on getting around in Ethiopia was really useful for many of you, so today I'm breaking down all the important things you need to know when you land into Addis Ababa. This is the first part of two, and I'll talk about phone, internet, electricity, customs, cheap flights, and an incident with Ethiopia Airlines. In the second part, I will go into toilets, showers, laundry, vaccinations, language, and useful gear.
Here are the notes from my vlog:
– If you want to use your phone, get a SIM card from Ethio Telecom. Prepare for line ups
– It's only 30 birr ($2) for 300mb on sign up. For most people, good enough to stay in touch, maybe an IG post a day. After that, you have to fill, and I can't remember how much you get, but it's definitely expensive for Ethiopians. Refill cards are sold literally everywhere. Guys on corners, etc. Enter a code and that's it.
– Ethiopia Telecom is a government monopoly. Social media is often blocked. Get a VPN: get one that works for PC and has an app for the Phone. I'll dig up the one I used and put it in the description. Note: you don't need to connect to a VPN server in the country, which is hard fo find, but just to a neighbouring one.
– Use LINE or Wechat since they're usually not blocked.
– Voice over IP is often blocked too.
– It's expensive. Go to a hotel and buy a coffee or breakfast.
– There are some new co-working spaces now.
– Circle ones used in Europe, Type C, 220V
– Customs is fairly strict.
– Don't bring two laptops; you might get away with 2 phones or 2 cameras.
Cheap Local Flights
– Ethiopia Airlines: hit and miss. International high quality. Local can be a mess. I showed up a hour before a flight one time and it took off before I checked in. The next day, I got on a flight and it left over an hour after the departure time. To be safe, show up 2 hours before. Also note that the check-in lines can be chaotic "non lines"
– BUT you have to fly into the country on Ethiopia airlines, because you get a steep 30% off or more on local flights booked a week or so in advance. I got a one-way ticket to Lalibela for $30.
– You definitely don't want to take a bus to Lalibela since it's a mountainous region. Even the bajaj or tuk-tuk that I took to get to the Lalibela airport was a rough ride.
Recommended Gear
Here are some extra things I recommend for Ethiopia Travel.
– Small Gorilla Tape for on the road repairs
– Large clear Gorilla tape if you're volunteering or visiting schools. You can patch up broken windows with this. The regular dark roll is also good for other repairs.
– Very strong glue. I prefer this one over the one I showed in the video
– Compact, non-hanging mosquito net for sleeping. This one takes more "building work", but is compact. while this one and this one are pop-up style
– Lifestraw bottle to reduce water bottle waste (there's no recycling in Ethiopia)
– Dual USB Travel Adapter. This one has more amps than the one I vlogged about, so it charges faster.
– Aeropress travel coffee maker if you don't want to walk out for coffee every day
My full recommended gear list.

I've been loving the way a shirt dress and knee high boots evokes such a timeless effortless look. I decided why not share my latest Boho love with all of you.
Take your casual shirt dress to the next level with some brown scrunchy boots.
When you take that flowy shirt dress, and add some pointy toe knee high boots, and you are the ultimate in chic.
Do you have a shirt dress you can share with me? I need more inspiration for my soon-to-be-purchased boho look.
It's Fashion Friday all around the web…

We're the Dursos. I'm Jessica, the Mama. Doug is the Dada but doesn't write in the blog, though he always says he's going to. We're now a family of four. Allie was born Oct. 30, 2009 and Peyton was born on Feb. 20, 2013.
I started keeping a running blog in 2008 when I started training for my first half marathon. When I got pregnant in 2009, I started another blog for our family activites. I stopped the running blog for awhile and then started it again. I'd always considered the two topics separate and kept the separate blogs. But I decided these two big parts of my life are definitely not separate! I run for my family, and my family makes it possible for me to run! I had also started to incorporate my interest in cooking as well as my weight loss efforts in my running blog. All of those wellness efforts are important for the whole family. Current blog topics are our family along with my running, dieting, cooking and whatever else strikes me. The Durso family has lots going on and we hope you will share it with us.

Hasbro Children's Hospital
When your child is hurting, rely on our expert providers for leading-edge care.
Good Night Lights
In The News
A Barrington Times story explains how a local fourth-grade class was inspired to create a Good Night Lights book. View the book.
More media coverage:
On Social Media
Visit Good Night Lights' Facebook page
Good Night Lights is a local tradition that began with a simple gesture: Long-time hospital "resident cartoonist" Steve Brosnihan wanted to wish the children of Hasbro Children's Hospital a good night as he rode home on his bicycle after an evening at the hospital.
From a spot near India Point Park, Steve paused to illuminate the headlight of his bicycle toward the hospital's awaiting patients.
After realizing that the gesture was a much-appreciated way of letting hospital patients know that someone is thinking about them, Steve began recruiting local businesses to participate.
Since then, restaurants, hotels, Brown University, police departments and an assisted-living community have joined in at 8:30 p.m. each night, making "Good Night Lights" one of area's fastest-growing traditions.
Since Good Night Lights began, hospital patients have embraced the tradition, and still gather by the windows of Hasbro Children's Hospital to flash lights back at Providence and neighboring East Providence.
Everyone is invited to participate in this special tradition!
