So no Byrd deal. What's next for Bills?
by Joe Buscaglia
posted Jul 23 2013 5:39PM
The deadline has come and gone for the Buffalo Bills to strike a long-term deal with franchised safety Jairus Byrd, and the two sides have failed to come to an agreement within the given amount of time.
Where did it all go wrong? What's next for the two sides? You really have to look at it from both the team and player's perspectives to try and understand why nothing was accomplished Monday.
Rarely is a simple narrative the only story behind contract negotiations that have gone awry. In this case, there weren't many contract negotiations to speak of. What was the big difference between the sides? Using logic from the point of view of each side, you can start to glean what may have happened.
What went wrong?
When you look at it from the angle of the team, you can make a lot of sense out of why a long-term deal was not reached with their franchised safety.
First and foremost, the expectations of the franchise aren't necessarily high right now for 2013. They have a lot of new faces: a new head coach, offensive coordinator, defensive coordinator, quarterback and much more. With all of that turnover from one year to the next, it's safe to say the Bills aren't really sure what will come of the 2013 season. They're hopeful, but not expecting a big jump in the win category.
Due to that ambiguity and lack of expectation, the Bills are likely quite hesitant to re-sign a player like Byrd to the safety of long-term, guaranteed contract. Byrd excelled in Dave Wannstedt's vanilla 4-3 defense last year. Will he do the same in Mike Pettine's brand new, aggressive scheme?
While you can argue that Byrd likely would be able to succeed due to him having played in three different defenses over his first four seasons, it's not a given. That may also have made the Bills back off the idea on making him the top paid free safety in the NFL.
There's also the argument, which some may disagree with (including yours truly), that safety just isn't a position worth investing a lot of guaranteed money in to.
In contrast, the incentives for Byrd to do a long-term deal were lacking and that's why the two sides remain apart.
While it's an incredibly scary proposition to go in to a year of the injury-plagued NFL without the security of a long-term contract, it's a step Byrd was willing to take without the Bills sending an offer he and his agent Eugene Parker deemed worthy.
The July 15 deadline really was the only leverage play Byrd's camp had. In most franchise tag cases the team really does have the upper-hand in the leverage game, and that's only enhanced once the long-term deal deadline passes.
There's also another angle to consider. What if Byrd simply doesn't want to re-sign long-term in Buffalo? Perhaps that's why he's asking for top-of-the-line money, knowing the Bills likely wouldn't cave to those demands.
All Byrd has known since being in the NFL is losing and constant turnover of coaching staffs. Knowing the window for most players in the league isn't that big, perhaps Byrd looked at this as his one big shot to sign with a contender.
Regardless if he does or does not want to be with the Bills long-term, fans will likely see Byrd in a Buffalo uniform in 2013. The biggest question is when that will be.
What's next?
Starting with Byrd first, it's rather simple. It's very likely Byrd will not want to go through the same song and dance next off-season.
Rather than sitting out the majority of the season, the safety and his agent could try to use that leverage to attempt to facilitate a one-year agreement that benefits them in a certain way. Byrd and Parker will likely push to sign a deal with language to prevent the Bills from assigning either the franchise or transition tag on the player after the 2013 season.
The two sides, if they so choose, could even work it in to the initial franchise tag tender that has yet to be signed. At this point in time because Byrd hasn't signed his tender, he is not subject to any fines for missing training camp or games.
Byrd's camp knows what the Bills have at free safety without him. It's either they use Aaron Williams, who is playing safety for the first time in his life, or they go with fourth-round rookie Duke Williams. No matter which they side with, the drop-off will likely be humongous. They may attempt to play up that fear angle with the Bills.
If Byrd is really dedicated to making the Bills know he means business, he could always sit out until after Week 10 of the regular season and then sign his franchise tag at the last minute. This would give him an accrued season in the NFL, and allow him to hit the free agent market in 2014 as long as the Bills don't use the franchise tag on him once more.
From the Bills' perspective, it's also quite simple.
They can sit back and wait for Byrd and Parker to come to them to either negotiate a one-year deal or to sign his original franchise tag tender. At this point, the Bills have all the leverage in a nothing-to-lose type of season under a first-year head coach.
Without Byrd at camp, they lose an elite player on their defense. However, it also gives them ample opportunity to see exactly what they have behind him by giving first-team repetitions to Williams and Williams.
At this point, the player has more to lose by not signing the one-year agreement. They miss out on a portion of their guaranteed money, they lose the battle of public perception by holding out and they keep themselves off the field in what could be one of the most important years of their career.
The Bills can once again use the franchise tag on Byrd in 2014 before they must officially let him hit unrestricted free agency in the 2015 off-season if they so choose. On the surface, it doesn't appear the team has any real incentive to put in language to prevent a second franchise tag within the framework of their one-year agreement in 2013.
They know Byrd will be in a Bills uniform at some point during the season. All the pressure is on Byrd and what he and his agent elect to do next. Until that time, it's more of the wait-and-see game for the fans hoping for good news about one of the team's best players.

Stopped My Breakage And Lessened SheddingI used it and my hair stopped breaking and I have much less shedding, hardly any at all.
The shedding comes from a health condition that I have but this is the first time in years my hair does not shed constantly.Feb 18, 2011Roxanne Z. / OKLAHOMAHAIR TYPEBlack / Normal Hair

The Best ProductMy hair is wavy, (dyed) light brown, very long (below my lower back).
I bought this product because I had a lot of breakage and split ends. my hair was also dry and brittle. All due to the daily use of flat iron
When i used this product I washed my hair with my normal shampoo, put the product on, used a blow dryer to dry the product, rinsed all of the product off, then used my normal conditioner.
My results were shocking! I never really used a product that actually delivered what it claim it would. It made my lifeless weak breaking hair shine, much stronger, softer and healthier, all after just one use.
I have already recommend this product to people who has weak, dry, breaking, lifeless hair.
I think it's good for just about any hair type. I have a 2c hair type and my friend who also uses this product has a 4c. It has worked great for both of us.
This is an intense protein treatment. Too much protein will damage your hair so, use as directed. I had also purchased another great product "ApHogee Intensive Two Minute Keratin" which I use once a week between the protein treatment.
Both products will do wonders for your hair.Feb 16, 2011Melissa C. / NYCHAIR TYPELight Brown / Dry Hair / Color Treated Hair

I Love It!!!I'm a creole girl with curly hair...5 inches from my waist. I got frustrated with flat ironing my hair every week so I put a kiddy perm in my hair...left it in 10 mins. Big mistake! My hair has been breaking and shedding like crazy. The perm was done in July 10. I've been using Kera Care products and getting trimmed every 8-10 weeks. While this has helped...it didn't stop it. I forgot how good Aphogee two step treatment was! I used it when I bleached half my hair to platinum blond (natural color is BLACK) and it saved my hair. I followed the steps (except I used Kera Care dry & itchy scalp and Hydrating detangling shampoo) It has made a tremendous difference! I follow with the Balancing Moisturizer and use Kera Care Strengthening Thermal Protector...I'm saying my hair feels like silk! I have used this in my cousins hair. She has normal african american permed hair. She loves it!!! Its worth it to me!Jan 16, 2011Crystal / New Orleans, LA.HAIR TYPEBlack / Curly Hair / Color Treated Hair / Thick or Coarse Hair / Relaxed Hair

Stopped My Hair From Falling OutI overpermed my hair. For a month, my hair fell out in globs. My hair would fall out everywhere; anytime, anywhere ... in the comb, on my food, on the dinner table, on my desk, on my coat, on the floor, in the kitchen, in the shower ... wherever!! My hair was falling out non-stop! It was awful!
Unfortunately, by the time I started using this product, I'd already lost a significant amount of hair.
However,, I guess I should be grateful that I at least still have SOME hair left after using this, and the "shedding" stopped.
After 2 consecutive treatments, my hair is pretty much back to "normal".

Stinky Smell But WorksThis is my first experience with this product. when i first opened the bottle to smell it i thought something was wrong with the bottle i had. i didn't expect it to smell so bad and i dont recall any of the other reviewers mentioning anything about the smell. So after applying it to my hair the way it states on the bottle i went to the hair salon. I mentioned to my stylist about it and she too mentioned that it smells but it works. After my hair was styled i can tell that my hair felt thicker and there was less shedding. I just wish the bottle was biggerNov 19, 2010TalieeyaHAIR TYPEBlack / Color Treated Hair / Relaxed Hair

Miracle In A Bottle!!!Since my move to the West Coast, my hair has been shedding like crazy. I could not understand why. When I would normally style my hair I would shampoo it, deep condition it, apply wrapping lotion,wrap it and sit under the dryer. Every other week I would do a hot oil treatment and every 6 weeks I would get my ends trimmed. I do not use alot of heat on my hair, and I try to stick to the same product line...so why is it shedding like crazy? I started taking vitamins and started drinking alot of water...Nothing worked!! :( I was doing some reasearch online and looked up how to stop African American hair from shedding/breaking off. I found a article on protein treatment and I seen Aphogee products....then I found this Folica.com website. I searched Aphogee products and saw all the great views/5 star rating in alot of cases. I decided to go buy the Aphogee Shampoo, Balancing moisturizer, and Two-Step Protein Treatment. All three products total under 20 dollars. What a buy! I went home shampooed my hair as directed, followed by the 2 Step Protein treatment and Balancing Moisturizer. The 2 Step Protein Treatment was kind of messy...I would recommend putting it in a spray bottle and sectioning your hair to apply. It is very sticky. I sat under the hair dryer until it dryed. My hair was helmet hard. I washed it out really good and applied the balancing moisturizer. This is very important to apply after the protein treatment. I left it on for about 5 minutes, than rinsed it out. I combed my hair with a wide tooth comb, and literally about 10 strands of hair come out. WOW! I was shocked. Normally, it would be a jaw breaker size hair ball. Its been almost 2 weeks after my treatment and my hair is NOT shedding!! A strand here and there is normal but I am amazed with this line. I immediately tossed my Pantene Pro-V out the bathroom. I can contuine my goal to long beautiful healthy hair! I recommend this product 100 percent!!

"didn't Like It"I didn't like this product. The smell is unpleasant and looks like oj. My hair felt worst than it did before I put it on and it was dull. After rinsing, I could still smell the odor from it. Don't think I'll use it again. The other products like the shampoo and essential oils are great.Oct 19, 2010Nat M.

Second Time...and Still GreatWell i'm back again, and i'm excited to say that with my second use of Aphogee Protein Treatment the results are tremendous. I began to use this product sometime over the summer ( i want to say my last review was in August). I had done my protein treatment a few days before I had gotten my microbraids. I attend college in Mississippi, so i did not want to have to worry about doing my hair in the extreme heat. Within about a week and half with my first usage of the product I had gotten new growth. I usually keep my braids in for about 3 months. But this time my braids held up for only 5 weeks. When i took my braids out i was somewhat discouraged at how my hair was looking. the next day and had gone to a local salon near my campus because i had heard of a male beautician that helps girls grow their hair down their backs within a year and he does not use a straightener or curling iron. he just perms hair and puts wrapping lotion in your hair, sit you under the dryer, and once he unwraps your hair it's as if he had put a straightener to your hair. but anyways...when he saw my head he just knew that he was going to have to clip my ends. well he permed my hair, washed it, conditioned, put wrapping lotion in my hair and sat me under the dryer for 45 minutes. once i was done he unwrapped my hair and he immediately knew that i used Aphogee Protein Treatment. he did not have to clip my ends at all. the last time i got a trim was in June. It was September when i went to him. I'm very impressed and that was only with one use of the treatment. i am on my second use now and i will continue to use the product. oh and by the way...in june i actually got my hair cut to my chin. now my hair is passed my chin and the back of it is passed my neck.Oct 16, 2010Toni / Crest Hill, ILHAIR TYPEBlack / Thick or Coarse Hair / Relaxed Hair

Zoom Mag 2 Worms 20pk
The Zoom Mag II Worm is great when water temperatures heat up and fishing pressure begins to take its toll. Ideal for targeting bigger bass on a Texas-rig, especially when flipping and pitching into heavy cover, the Mag II is super soft to the touch for the proper action needed to pull that reluctant money fish. Available in various colors to suit your local waters, the Zoom Mag II is also salt-impregnated to hold even the most tentative bites.
"The Zoom Baits Mag II Worm is awesome for the mid-summer months - it's a little thinner and its tail action is more subtle. I'll drop down to a 5/16 or 1/4-ounce weight to give the worm a slower, more tantalizing fall." - Terry Bolton, FLW Tour professional angler and Zoom Pro Staff member.

Comments: The redshad Zoom on a Carolina Rig has been killer for me the last three weekends! I caught two on back to back cast, one was 10.4 and the next was 10.6 and both cast were within a foot of each other. The next weekend I caught one that weighed 11.75 and yesterday (Labor day) I caught one that weighed just over 10 pounds. The redshad is my go to bait with plastic worms. I've been fishing with Zoom baits for years and now all mine friends are! Thanks for making an awesome bait!!

From: Scott: Virginia
Comments: This has become my go to worm rigged with a straight worm hook and pegged 1/8 oz weight and worked slowly on f/c line. One negative that because of their soft design, durability is not one of their strong points as they have a tendency to tear after catching a couple hard fighters.

Takes More, But Worth ItI love the smell of this shampoo and it's a must if you've recently gotten a Brazilian or Keratin blow-out, as it's sulfate-free. The only two downfalls it has is that it takes more shampoo to get a lather, and it can really burn your eyes if any seeps into them. I think the reason for the burning may be due to it being sulfate-free, as I've had this happen with other like it. I still love this shampoo, though, and would recommend it to others!

Highly Recommended!I have tried out a combination of Enjoy products and this is by far my favorite!!!
I have thin hair that tends to fall out so I used this shampoo with the rejuvenating volumizing conditioner and it was the perfect combo!
It was also nice knowing that this line of products doesn't carry sulfate or ingredients damaging to your hair! You can definitely see the results. My hair was shiny, silky, smooth and never looked so healthy! This shampoo was also very light and didn't cause my hair to fall out like every other shampoo!

Today's caption is a preview of our new image series World of Change: Managing Fire in Etosha National Park.
Etosha Pan is an old, salt-encrusted lake bottom in northwestern Namibia. The region is best known for Etosha National Park, a wildlife preserve that is home to substantial populations of rhinos, elephants, lions, and other large mammals.
Before human intervention, Etosha National Park's savannas and mopane woodlands would burn about once per decade. But in the decades following the park's establishment in 1907, fires were extinguish as quickly as possible because they were considered harmful to savanna ecosystems. During recent decades, fire management at Etosha National Park has evolved. With evidence piling up showing savannas need occasional fire to keep the overall ecosystem healthy, park managers started using fire as a management tool in 1981.
The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA's Terra satellite observed a managed burn in the park that began on June 5, 2012. The top image shows the area before the fire was intentionally set by park managers. The fire spread gradually north and west for a few days before winds picked up considerably on June 10 (middle image) and sent the blaze raging out of control through the grasses and trees of the savanna. As it spread westward, Namibian authorities decided that the fire had grown so large that they should fight it. Within a week, it was extinguished. The bottom image shows the area on June 16, after the fire was out. The sharp edges of the burn scar are due to roads and fences that served as firebreaks.
Despite temporarily losing control of the fire, the park's managers achieved much of what they had hoped. Most areas were not as severely burned as they were in previous blazes, and a patchwork of burn scars and fire breaks were created. Unlike a devastating 2011 fire, not one game animal died in the 2012 blaze.

Everyday Hero delivers right words in times of trauma
ORANGE – He was a wreck, this stranger sitting alone in front of the nurses station at the hospital.
It might have been Tom Walsh's first day as a volunteer for TIP, the Trauma Intervention Program, but life experience told him that this was the man he'd been called to help. This was the one whose wife had gone to bed in the hotel room in Irvine after seeing their son off to college. In the morning, he couldn't wake her up. She'd died of a stroke in her sleep.
Walsh recognized the look on the stranger's face, the helpless feeling of being unable to save the woman you love. Years before, Walsh's own wife, Barb, had suffered a small stroke and a traumatic brain injury from a resulting fall. Even though Barb eventually recovered, the experience had plunged them into the often scary maze that is the world of hospitals. That's what had first given him the desire to volunteer to help others.
Click here to hear Tom Walsh's story in his own words.
"We had a year of being in the hospital quite a bit. It was a nasty time," Walsh recalls, his even voice perfect for delivering understatement. "I saw all these people in waiting rooms, waiting for whatever bad news they were going to get. I could just see that they were just out of it – 'What's going on, what's happening?' Because of that, I kept thinking, what could I do that would make sense? I can't be a candy striper – my legs just wouldn't look good in those skirts."
Then, Walsh's tennis partner was killed along with his toddler daughter in an auto accident. While the life of his partner's wife was spared, it left her and the surviving children devastated. Walsh witnessed how TIP volunteers eased her pain to the point she could function again and provided information that helped her navigate a terrible time. That's when Walsh knew he'd found the right way to help.
And now there he was – retired owner of an auto wrecking company, real estate investor, golf fanatic, sometime pool shark, tennis player, father of two boys – alone to take his first turn at being an "emotional paramedic" for a stranger.
Usually TIP volunteers go out on their first call with a program veteran, but Walsh arrived ahead of the 20-minute response time schedule. The first thing he learned: "You never think you're ready for it," says the normally unflappable Walsh.
The next thing he learned was that his innate cool character and the 100 hours of volunteer training combined to give him all he needed to act as a source of comfort, stability and information in the midst of what TIP volunteers call "the horrible hours" – the chaotic, painful time after sudden death or grave injury of a loved one upends your world.
Those horrible hours can also come after you've witness something violent and traumatic, whether crime, accident or act of nature. Fire departments, hospitals, coroner's offices and police call TIP, a national nonprofit organization, to provide victims the emotional support emergency personnel have neither the time nor training to administer. The program seeks to prevent what mental health experts call "secondary injury," lasting emotional effects that can result from experiencing trauma.
No sooner had Walsh wrapped up that first call than he was needed on another, this time for a Latino family who'd just lost a grandmother. He doesn't speak Spanish. They didn't speak much English. It didn't matter. He was able to offer what they needed by just being there, holding hands, offering Kleenex.
That taught him a third indelible lesson: "We're all pretty much the same. Some of us live in big houses, some of us live in small houses. Other than that, the fears, the joy, the sadness, we feel it the same," he says.
That was five years ago. Walsh has become a stalwart of the Orange County chapter of TIP, not only volunteering every month on calls but serving as a dispatcher and mentor for other volunteers.
"Everybody thinks this kind of work is a good idea, but few people can do it over the long haul," notes Wayne Fortin, founder of TIP, whose national offices are based in San Diego.
Fortin has come to know Walsh well as a veteran of the program. "You have to have a balance between compassion and courage – and I'm thinking of Tom as I say this. You have to have an unwavering focus on wanting to help others in crisis. If you are in it for any reason other than that, it won't work. There's no money, no accolades. It's getting into your car in the middle of the night, wading into these devastations, where a lot of times you can't fix it. You can't bring back a dead child, you can't save anyone. You have to be able to tolerate helplessness, and believe that just your presence can make a difference," Fortin says. "Tom's also got a great sense of humor. He takes his work seriously but never himself."
For his part, Walsh seems the type who'd be more comfortable facing an Internal Revenue Service audit than hearing what a great guy he is. He jokes that his skill at being a TIP volunteer all stems from his days as a kid, when his favorite show was "The Lone Ranger."
"You ride in, help, then ride away, and people say, 'Who was that masked man?'" Walsh says with a sideways grin.
On a more serious note, he says the hard part of the job is learning how to "shake off" the pain and suffering of the calls, as so many are about death. His happy, stable home life in Orange Park Acres with Barb, the same home where they raised their sons Tom, 27, and Matt, 22, gives him a lot to appreciate. And, he says, he leans on the tools he's learned through TIP: "It teaches you to say the right thing versus the wrong thing when people are in their worst moments."
What is always the right thing to say?
In the time it takes to blink, Walsh replies, "I'm here for you."

In addition to managing the medical and day-to-day care of people with frontotemporal disorders [1], caregivers can face a host of other challenges. These challenges may include changing family relationships, loss of work, poor health, decisions about long-term care, and end-of-life [2] concerns.
People with frontotemporal disorders and their families often must cope with changing relationships, especially as symptoms get worse. For example, the wife of a man with bvFTD not only becomes her husband's caregiver, but takes on household responsibilities he can no longer perform. Children may suffer the gradual "loss" of a parent at a critical time in their lives. The symptoms of bvFTD often embarrass family members and alienate friends. Life at home can become very stressful.
Changing relationships
After Justin graduated from college, he went home to live with his parents for a short time. It didn't take long to notice personality changes in his 50-year-old mother, a successful executive. She became more childlike and had trouble finishing household chores. By the time she was diagnosed with bvFTD, Justin's relationship with his mother had deteriorated. Learning about the disorder helped Justin understand and accept the changes he was seeing in his mother.
Frontotemporal disorders disrupt basic work skills, such as organizing, planning, and following through on tasks. Activities that were easy before the illness began might take much longer or become impossible. People lose their jobs because they can no longer perform them. As a result, the caregiver might need to take a second job to make ends meet—or reduce hours or even quit work to provide care and run the household. An employment attorney can offer information and advice about employee benefits, family leave, and disability if needed.
Workers diagnosed with any frontotemporal disorder can qualify quickly for Social Security disability benefits through the "compassionate allowances" program. For more information, see www.socialsecurity.gov/compassionateallowances [3] or call 1-800-772-1213.
Caring for someone with a frontotemporal disorder can be very hard, both physically and emotionally. To stay healthy, caregivers can do the following:
The organizations listed in the Resources [4] section of this booklet can help with information about caregiver services and support.
A stressful disorder
Robert, 60, started humming and whistling throughout the day. Over time, his humming got louder, and he started banging on the table over and over again. Robert's wife and his boss at work were concerned about this behavior and tried to distract him, but this became stressful for everyone. Robert lost his job. A doctor diagnosed bvFTD and prescribed medication to control his behavior. Robert began to attend an adult day services program.
For many caregivers, there comes a point when they can no longer take care of the person with a frontotemporal disorder without help. The caregiving demands are simply too great, perhaps requiring around-the-clock care. As the disease progresses, caregivers may want to get home healthcare services or look for a residential care facility, such as a group home, assisted living facility, or nursing home [5]. The decision to move the person with a frontotemporal disorder to a care facility can be difficult, but it can also give caregivers peace of mind to know that the person is safe and getting good care. The decreased level of stress may also improve the caregivers' relationship with his or her loved one.
People with frontotemporal disorders typically live 6 to 8 years with their conditions, sometimes longer, sometimes less. Most people die of problems related to advanced disease. For example, as movement skills decline, a person can have trouble swallowing, leading to aspiration pneumonia, in which food or fluid gets into the lungs and causes infection. People with balance problems may fall and seriously injure themselves.
It is difficult, but important, to plan for the end of life [6]. Legal documents, such as a will, living will, and durable powers of attorney for health care and finances, should be created or updated as soon as possible after a diagnosis of bvFTD, PPA, or a related disorder. Early on, many people can understand and participate in legal decisions. But as their illness progresses, it becomes harder to make such decisions.
A physician who knows about frontotemporal disorders can help determine the person's mental capacity. An attorney who specializes in elder law, disabilities, or estate planning can provide legal advice, prepare documents, and make financial arrangements for the caregiving spouse or partner and dependent children. If necessary, the person's access to finances can be reduced or eliminated.

And those of you that complain we in the sports media still talk about a guy this is basically not relevant now, I say there is an ongoing story here. Tiger changed the world of golf for the better. More people tuned in because of Tiger. Now the story has changed. People want to know what's next for Tiger. Will he just eventually flutter away? Or will he figure this out and make a great comeback, winning a major or two? Look, no one has stepped up and become the next major player that everyone will watch. There is a different winner every time there is a major played. I don't think that is good for golf. No one is becoming that big star where millions of fans will adore them, buy their stuff … and talk about on the sports radio station.

This makes both worksheet management and documentation presentation easier – constants and parameters can be defined as 'true' throughout your worksheet and can be placed close to the end result of the calculation to support 'what if' analyses, as well as for clear and concise presentation of your work.
Math in Text – Mathcad Prime 3.1 allows math and text to be seamlessly integrated to provide a natural text flow that increases the readability of your worksheet definitions, design notes and explanatory text. Live math can be inserted, pasted and moved anywhere within text to augment worksheet presentation with content that will update on upstream changes in calculation. By enabling math within text, Mathcad Prime 3.1 allows you much greater scope with your worksheet presentation.
Templates – Save you time and effort with templates by providing the ability to define and organize desired content in such a way as to allow simple and structured re-use in creating new worksheets. Anything you can do with a worksheet, be it adding calculation content or changing documentation formatting, can be saved in a template. Documents can be standardized, IP can be captured and your desired format can be reused as often as you need.
Math Formatting – As a fully functional engineering calculation documentation tool, Mathcad Prime 3.1 already supports standard text formatting. To allow even greater worksheet documentation flexibility you can now format your live math too.
Custom Functions – Hundreds of built-in functions that cover a multitude of engineering disciplines. With Custom Functions you can now write and integrate your own functions, customizing your working environment to suit whatever engineering needs you have.
Advanced Numerics – Improved calculation capabilities. Building on the improvements seen in Prime 2.0 (native 64-bit support, linear algebra, signal processing, just to name a few), Prime 3.10 adds new matrix decompositions functions: LU, QR and Cholesky. These functions replace the old lu, qr and cholesky counterparts. The new functions are up to 100 times faster, provide extended capability (such as pivoting, and complex number support) and return the result in easier to work with format.
Excel Component – You've got a large data set in Excel that's critical to your design. But you don't want to use that tool for your calculations. Mathcad's Excel component was designed for exactly that problem. PTC Mathcad is the industry standard for engineering calculations because it saves you time, reduces risk and integrates with many tools you may already be using.
Symbolics – Like many features in the software, it automates a task that is cumbersome, time-consuming and risky if done manually. With symbolics, you can set up the right form of a formula before plugging in the numbers. Routine updates to downstream computations are managed automatically, so your documents remain up to date even as your formulas change.
Solving Capabilities – Its advanced features, like solve blocks, make it a powerful engineering tool. The solve block capability lets you quickly and easily solve systems of linear, non-linear, and differential equations. It lets you solve any number of equations and unknown variables – you can analyze a wide variety of problems according to a set of constraints that you specify.
Advanced Plotting – 3-D plotting in PTC Mathcad is simple to use, and incredibly effective because it lets you work faster with fewer mistakes. Create a plot with the click of a button; both surface and curved based plots automatically rescale when you make adjustments to the data. Any engineer can easily manipulate, analyze and visualize complex data right in the worksheet.
Highlights of the enhancements in Mathcad 15.0 include:

Statement by Troika Australia-NL-UK during Open Working Group on Sustainable Development Goals (6th session)
Sustainable Development Goals Open Working Group, 6th session, 10 December 2013 Means of Implementation (science and technology, knowledge-sharing and capacity building); Global partnership for achieving sustainable development
Troika: Australia, The Netherlands and United Kingdom
International development cooperation is changing rapidly. There is a growing recognition of the importance of a new global partnership with robust accountability, effective measurement of results and policy coherence for development. New actors, new sources of finance and new avenues of cooperation are increasingly important. Overseas Development Assistance is a decreasing proportion of global development flows, with developing countries becoming donors, domestic resources growing rapidly and businesses expanding into new markets. For other countries however, ODA will remain crucial for their development in the foreseeable future. These changes should be taken into account as we reflect on how to implement the post-2015 development agenda. We welcome the TST papers on this topic.
1) Key to the post 2015 development agenda is to move to a new global partnership that is based on shared responsibility and respects and reflects contemporary realities. As the TST paper stated, the MDG partnership was based on a "donor-recipient" concept which played an important role in making progress towards the MDGs but which is now largely outdated. All parties need to be contributors to success and it should be recognized that capabilities, capacities and actions required at different stages of development differ between countries, but that they also can evolve. The partnership should be built on the enduring principles of equity, sustainability, transparency and policy coherence for development.
2) All potential financial flows from national and international, as well as public and private sources should be included. The Monterrey framework on Finance for Development (FfD) should be the basis for the discussions on financial flows. We need to focus on mobilization as well as the effectiveness and access to the finance that is available for development.
3) The comparative importance of ODA in total FfD flows has declined relative to that of private flows such as Foreign Direct Investments, trade and remittances, except in the lowest income countries and conflict affected states. ODA remains very much needed in the poorest countries and for financing global public goods. Many Least Developed Countries (LDCs), Small Island Developing States (SIDS) and Land Locked Developing Countries (LLDCs) still rely heavily on ODA for their development investments. ODA will continue to play an important role for these countries. ODA worldwide should be targeted to those people, countries and sectors where the need or impact is greatest. Efforts to meet ODA commitments should be made. Aid effectiveness should be part and parcel of our approach, including strong and coherent multilateral organizations. We welcome the statement in the task team paper that a data revolution for sustainable development is necessary.
4) We also need to be more specific on the potential role of the private sector in sustainable development. It is important to acknowledge the private sector is the engine of economic growth and job creation in most developing countries and most technology transfer occurs through private investment. Governments can partner with the private sector to grow investments where it is needed most, such as in sustainable infrastructure investment. Governments can also partner with business to maximize the positive social and environmental benefits of private sector operations. By focusing on international corporate social responsibility in their production processes, and including social and environmental costs in their management plans, business can play a pioneering role in bringing about change at the international level. Equally, a robust and secure domestic environment will promote foreign direct investment, encourage entrepreneurship and grow local business. It is encouraging to see that developing countries with sound policies have gained access to international capital markets. Continued good governance is needed in both developing and developed countries to manage the risks involved with external debt.
5) As Erik Solheim said, more resources for sustainable development can be stimulated by building greater coherence between public and private flows of money. Innovative ways of cooperation and financing are needed. Increasing the possibilities to use public finance to catalyze private sector investments can therefore be an effective and sustainable method for financing development. Tailored, innovative approaches that build investor confidence and reduce risk can help mobilize private sector's finance for sustainable economic growth. Measures such as Public Private Partnerships, equity funds, guarantees, co-investment, concessional finance or subsidies that enhance returns can all act to encourage investment in sustainable development activities. We should also promote inclusive access to finance, including economic opportunities for women. The WBG Women, business and the law report says over one hundred countries have regulations that form obstacles to the economic participation of women. This should be addressed.
6) Developing countries should be supported in obtaining financial independence in the long-term. Increasing domestic public resources and improving public finance management are essential. Some developing countries have good opportunities to increase tax collection, tackle tax avoidance, reduce illicit flows and optimize royalty income from extractive industries. Other developing countries do not yet have the capacity nor have the economic position to increase their domestic public resources. For all developing countries improvement of an enabling business environment and improving access to financial services for all can further support the increase of domestic resources. The international community should provide support for capacity building, addressing illegal financial flows, debt relief and improving debt sustainability to support the potential contribution of domestic resources to sustainable development for all.
7) Operational multistakeholder partnerships around the new goals are crucial. We should start to think carefully about how to pull together existing partnerships and build the necessary new partnerships. We commend the efforts of the United Nations in this regard. Mainstreaming around a goal has mobilized new funds and ideas in the past. Inspiring examples include the GAVI Alliance, Sustainable Energy for All, Sanitation and Water for All and initiatives around the food/energy/water nexus.
8) An open, fair and sustainable trading system is needed. This will give countries better opportunities for new sources of sustainable income in the long term. Breaking non-tariff barriers, improving access to special and differential treatment for LDCs and full duty-free and quota-free access for LDC exports are crucial. However, certain economic conditions have to be fulfilled before a country can fully reap the benefits of free trade. Therefore, some countries will need additional support to improve their institutions and business environment to better facilitate their participation. We strongly welcome the agreement reached in Bali on a package covering trade facilitation, agriculture and development on 7 December. The Bali package will ensure that cost of international trade will be reduced and it helps developing countries to further integrate in global value chains. We welcome the development outcomes from Bali and look forward to further work in the WTO to build on the Bali outcomes, including continuing to pursue further trade liberalizing outcomes that will benefit developing countries.
We reiterate the potential for effective and diverse partnerships for sustainability and eliminating poverty, including governments, international organizations, civil society and the private sector.

Festival - A Text to Speech synthesis software in Linux
Coming home after a hard day at work after staring at the monitor continuously for hours on end, the last thing I want to do many days is sit in front of the computer again. At times though, I have this urge to grab a book and do some light reading but often the strain on my eyes dissuades me in pursuing this thought any further. This is where this very nice utility called festival comes into the picture. Festival is a text-to-speech synthesiser developed by the Centre for Speech Technology Research at the University of Edinburgh. It is shipped with most Linux distributions and has been released under an X11-type licence allowing unrestricted commercial and non-commercial use alike.

RPi-friendly home automation kit adds voice recognition support
Following its successful Kickstarter campaign for a standalone Matrix home automation and surveillance hub, and subsequent release of an FPGA-driven Matrix Creator daughter board for use with the Raspberry Pi, Matrix Labs today launched a "Matrix Voice" board on Indiegogo. The baseline board, currently available at early-bird pricing of $45, has an array of 7 microphones surrounding a ring of 18 software-controlled RGBW LEDs. A slightly pricier model includes an MCU-controlled WiFi/Bluetooth ESP32 wireless module.
The Year Of Linux On Everything But The Desktop
The War on Linux goes back to Bill Gates, then CEO of Microsoft, in an "open letter to hobbyists" published in a newsletter in 1976. Even though Linux wouldn't be born until 1991, Gates' burgeoning software company – itself years away from releasing its first operating system – already felt the threat of open source software. We know Gates today as a kindly billionaire who's joining us in the fight against everything from disease to income inequality, but there was a time when Gates was the bad guy of the computing world. Microsoft released its Windows operating system in 1985. At the time, its main competition was Apple and Unix-like systems. BSD was the dominant open source Unix clone then – it marks its 40th birthday this year, in fact – and Microsoft fired barrages of legal challenges to BSD just like it eventually would against Linux. Meanwhile Apple sued Microsoft over its interface, in the infamous "Look and Feel" lawsuit, and Microsoft's reign would forever be challenged. Eventually Microsoft would be tried in both the US and the UK for antitrust, which is a government regulation against corporate monopolies. Even though it lost both suits, Microsoft simply paid the fine out of its bottomless pockets and kept right at it.

Biography All Music Guide
All Music Guide:
Purportedly the uncle of Tricky and the brother of prominent guitar sideman Caleb Quaye, Finley Quaye could definitely have relied on nepotism to get himself a recording contract. Fortunately, his sweet voice and feel for a soul groove were the leading indicators in his signing to the Haiku label. After collaborating with A Guy Called Gerald and becoming friends with Iggy Pop, Quaye recorded his debut album, Maverick A Strike, and released it in 1997. He then began recording vocals for Tricky's third album Angels With Dirty Faces. Four years after his critically acclaimed debut, Quaye resurfaced with Vanguard; a new outlook and musical visions were well rounded and a maturation marked the result. Much More Than Much Love followed in 2004.

By PAULA WELLNITZGuest Columnist
A year or so ago, I took a summer class at the University of Utah on "dialogue groups." I found the skill very different from what I had called "dialogue" up to then.
In the past, my idea of a dialogue group was one that came together to lean more about a subject. But, instead of a lecture format, the learners would expand, on question and respond to other ideas about the information.
In what I learned at the U of U, the members of a dialogue group each have a chance to express his or her ideas about a specific question or subject. All others listen intently and may ask a question to clarify something the speakers has said to better understand the other's thoughts. It can be very difficult to not be able to respond, or add to, or disagree with what another says.
Dialogue, as we learned in this class, does not have the intent to change the thinking of anyone there. It might, but it would just happen, not be striven for. What it can do is build a respect for and recognition of the good will of the others in the group.
Recently, in thinking about peace and the lack of it in our world today, it occurred to me that a small move toward peace could be a dialogue group on peace. So under the title "Dialogues for Peace," I decided that I wanted to offer to host a five week series of Tuesday evening dialogues at my house.
I am sure there are many different ideas and feelings about peace and its cause in our world, our country, our local community and home, It seems to me it could be helpful to bring those thoughts out into the open; to give people an opportunity to express themselves. Hopefully, there are people courageous enough to commit themselves to five hours to dialogue about peace.
Our usual American way is to want to DO something; to fix whatever. Many an information gathering discussion gets derailed by those who propose to solve one part of the issue without knowing all parts of the situation. Therefore, it needs to be clear that what I propose is a DI-alogue, not a DO-alogue group. Should any of the participants get ideas of something to DO, they would talk about it and organize outside the time of the dialogue.
My hope would be that dialogue will make Emery County a more peaceful place to lead out to the rest of the world. This would be done simply by bringing people together who see peace as important, however each thinks about it.

- Brief Synopsis:
- What foods should you eat if you want to keep your prostate healthy? How does sexual activity affect the health of your prostate? What are ways you can prevent prostate cancer? What should African-American men know about prostate cancer?
- Long Synopsis:
- What foods should you eat if you want to keep your prostate healthy? How does sexual activity affect the health of your prostate? What are ways you can prevent prostate cancer? What should African-American men know about prostate cancer? What are the best alternatives to radiation and surgery in treating prostate cancer? What are the symptoms of an unhealthy prostate? These are some of the many important questions that are answered by Dr. Daniel W. Nixon, one of America's premier cancer research institute leaders, and Dr. Max Gomez, the charismatic health commentator whose reports are aired on NBC television stations nationwide. The authors not only provide indispensable guidance in cancer prevention but also offer a dynamic, new noninvasive treatment of prostate cancer. Packed with information, The Prostate Health Program explains in clear, simple language the link between obesity and prostate cancer, the difference between an enlarged prostate and a diseased one, the causes of frequent urination and pain, and the specific prostate problems pertaining to gay men. Drs. Nixon and Gomez offer a user-friendly plan of diet, exercise, and behavioral change that men can easily incorporate into their lives. The authors explain why aggressive treatment, such as radiation and surgery, is often unnecessary, less effective, and more dangerous -- often leaving men incontinent and impotent -- than other treatments. The cornerstones of this unique program are the Prostate Health Pyramid and the Transition Diet, both of which were created specifically for this book and are the ultimate tools in prostate cancer prevention, control, and treatment. First, the foods that protect the health of the prostate are identified; then, food changes are introduced slowly for more effective and long-lasting reform of eating habits. Best of all, quick and easy recipes created by chefs at the Culinary Institute of America provide a menu that is healthy and delicious. With its combination of cutting-edge research and highly respected, world- renowned authors, The Prostate Health Program is the definitive defense against a deadly disease.
