Bromley holds up the point of attack better against double teams but doesnt have nearly the explosion that Donald has
whats the big deal...
maybe they will both be great NFL players....
"Measure Twice......Cut Once"
You couldn't be more full of **** if you were break dancing in a Port-a-Potty.......Kruunch
Bromley doesn't have the insane 1st step of Donald and isn't as good an athlete.
Also, Donald tore up the offseason, including the combine, senior bowl week and reportedly interviews too. I am not saying Bromley isn't a good practicer either, but the coaches at Pitt were saying stuff like "hardest worker we have ever seen" and talked of his work ethic ins practice with regards to Donald.
Outside of the Marvin Austin Pick, we have had good luck drafting DT's Hopefully this trend continues with Hanks and Bromley.
Think it is more about what the top three would have looked like if they took Donald in the first - who do you take in the second and third. If you don't take Richburg in the second and take a receiver you get Montcrief or someone of that caliber (not bad at all) but what is left in the third for Center, still solid picks I suppose. I think the way they attacked it they got solid players in the top three, actually the top 4 spots in the draft. I think there were lots of options to address the WR, OL and DL and they decided this was the way to go; we'll have to wait to see how things pan out this year to really tell how their strategy worked.
With that said, Donald will be the sexier DT on the field. Bromley could end up a solid DT, rotating with Hank Jenkins ect... Donald will start from the get go and put up the numbers. He has a motor like I havent seen since Sapp.
1 - WR/TE Evan Engram
2 - DT Dalvin Tomlinson
3 - QB Davis Webb
4 - RB Wayne Gallman
5 - DE Avery Moss
6 - OT Adam Bisnowady
LT (132.5) -> Strahan (141.5) -> Osi (65) -> Tuck (60.5) -> JPP (50) -> ???
"Next man up"
The statements in this post reflect the opinions of the poster and don't not reflect the opinion of the the New York Giants, the State of New York or any New York Giants Personnel. These are only opinions and unless specifically called "facts" they should be treated as the opinions of the poster.
I'm still upset that we didn't draft Donald. I really wanted that kid. Reese kinda made it up for me when he drafted Bromley, as he was my second favorite pick right behind Richburg.
the fact the coaching staff thinks bromley can get up to around 320 and still be able to get after the passer intrigues me, thats the size of the average NT, absolutely massive for a 3tech.
donalds drive and motor makes up for his size, i think bromley has that size and power naturally.

My friend Andy sent these to me yesterday...
"Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip the citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for patriotism is indeed a double-edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the mind. And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch and the blood boils with hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no need in seizing the rights of the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry, infused with fear and blinded by patriotism, will offer up all of their rights unto the leader and gladly so.
How do I know? For this is what I have done. And I am Caesar."

By Lloyd Gray/NEMS Daily Journal
With all the talk of who's the most fiscally conservative candidate in the Tupelo mayor's race, it's worth pondering what the term might connote in connection with the city's historical success.
Would, for example, a fiscally conservative mayor have opposed a voter-approved 10-mill tax increase to fund the Major Thoroughfare Program? After all, these days many elected officials oppose any possibility of a tax increase, even if it has to be approved by the voters.
Would a fiscally conservative mayor have opposed the bond issues that built new and at the time state-of-the-art school facilities around town? There were elected officials and voters, though in the minority, who didn't want taxes raised for what they saw as the school system's spendthrift ways.
Would a fiscally conservative mayor have opposed putting a steady stream of public funds into the conversion of an abandoned downtown mall into a coliseum to draw people to the city and enhance entertainment options for residents? Some self-styled fiscal conservatives opposed that project, seeing it as a sure-fail boondoggle.
Would a fiscally conservative mayor have opposed levying a quarter-cent sales tax to shore up a rapidly dwindling water supply by creating a whole new system for pumping water into the city?
Would a fiscally conservative mayor have opposed issuing $22 million in bonds to buy property in an underutilized, unattractive area at a major entrance to downtown for conversion to a city center with an attractive City Hall, retail, office and public gathering spaces, restaurants and residences?
If when you say fiscal conservative you're talking about penny-pinching, then yes, these projects would likely all have gotten a thumbs-down. They were new, innovative and involved in each case a degree of risk – something people whose sole goal is to hold down all public spending are averse to most of the time.
But if by fiscal conservative is meant prudent use of taxpayer dollars to generate a long-term return on investment through new business generation and a strengthened tax base for city services, then any and all of these projects would pass muster.
Maybe the better term is fiscal responsibility. That doesn't necessarily imply refusal to spend public money on more than routine services, but it does suggest a carefully considered plan for how it will be spent, assurances that there will be sources to pay for it and that it will ultimately leave the city in stronger economic and fiscal shape.
All the projects mentioned above have been successful. The Major Thoroughfare Program gave Tupelo development options it didn't have before, not to mention making life more convenient for residents and visitors. The commitment to education represented by the expansive Tupelo High campus has been cited by Toyota and numerous other economic development prospects as one of the things that impressed them most about Tupelo.
The BancorpSouth Arena saved the city from a huge abandoned shell in its midst and has brought shows, people and dollars to the city for nearly 20 years. The water system tax kept industrial and business growth in the city from coming to a standstill. And while the recession has kept the Fairpark development from yet reaching its full potential, it's given the city center a new and dynamic look and feel and the public investment has been entirely recouped.
All these projects, and many before them, have strengthened the city and left city government, by any objective measure, still in sound financial shape. But in each case, people who could see no value in spending those public funds opposed them.
Tupelo has prospered in part because of a willingness by elected officials to partner with the private sector in identifying needs and funding them, always with a clear vision of how the public spending will generate a return on the investment over the course of many years. That's something we don't need to lose sight of in the debate on who's more fiscally conservative – especially in light of the city's current challenges.

For years it was a struggle to implement non-default fonts in your website. And as a result, many websites still use Verdana or Arial as their default font. Designers were limited to use the 13 or so web safe fonts. And for years, we needed several difficult techniques to add those stylish fonts: either using a script that generates images (createfont.php?string=Mytext) or with font replacement solutions like sIFR, Cufón, FLIR or Typeface.js.
Google Web Fonts
When Google released their Font API in May 2010, it took me less than a day to release a Drupal module that enables web developers to use Google Fonts on their website without programming. And in the following months, I've spent quite some time to improve it and to keep the font list up-to-date. A year after releasing the module, the team at Google contacted me. They wanted me to know that they were working on an API service that can be used to fetch the whole list of available fonts and they asked for my input and to test it. I've implemented their API a few weeks later. Which was a great thing, because this saved me from having to update the module almost weekly as new fonts were now released almost every day. At this time, over 5000 Drupal sites are using the module.
And then there was @font-your-face!
A while after I've released the Google Fonts module, Scott Reynen (sreynen) contacted me to ask if I were interested in joining him on his @font-your-face module. His vision was to have one font module that implemented all avaliable font libraries. At the time, the module did not impress me and I didn't see the need to use one container module for several font providers. But that has changed.
During DrupalCon London I met Jason Pamental (jpamental) who gave a great talk about Web Fonts. We spoke about the Google Font module and he connected me the Ed Platz, Engineering Manager at Monotype. Ed asked me to help on the @font-your-face module to make it load the Google Fonts dynamically, just as I did with the Google Fonts module. He even offered me to pay me for my work. An offer I couldn't refuse and so I decided to give @font-your-face another try.
And boy, what was I wrong the first time. The module actually turned out into a great, user-friendly solution to implement thousands of fonts from 7 font providers. It does not only supports Google Fonts, but also Typekit, Font Squirrel, KERNEST, Fontdeck and Fonts.com. It even supports adding your own Fonts!
The admin interface of @font-your-face
Enabling fonts in the admin interface
A long story short...
I decided to stop working on the Google Fonts module and join Scott in making @font-your-face the one-stop solution for integrating Web Fonts in Drupal. I became a co-maintainer and implemented some new features:
- Make Google Fonts load dynamically
- Add fonts using the THEMENAME.info file
- Make fonts exportable with Features
- And some more minor improvements
So if you happen to use the Google Fonts module on one of your sites, please try out @font-your-face (the 7.x-2.x version) and let me know what you think in the comments. You won't regret it ;)
Next post
A fresh breeze in my lifeRead More »
What is the current support
What is the current support for @font-your-face for mobile? Is it consitent? How much longer for loading? what kind of latforms/mobile browsers support this?
That depends on the font provider
Hi Nigel. The point is that each platform supports its own font format:
- Internet Explorer only supports EOT
- Mozilla browsers support OTF and TTF
- Safari and Opera support OTF, TTF and SVG
- Chrome supports TTF and SVG.
Further, mobile browsers like Safari on the iPad and iPhone require SVG.
Some font providers (like Google Fonts) do a browser detection on their server and send you the right @font-face declaration. So when I load:
<link href="http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family= Quicksand" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
the contents of that CSS file differs when I request it with Opera than when I request it with IE. Pretty cool huh? Google Fonts work perfectly well on iOS devices using iOS 4 and up, but I'm not sure how that goes for the other font providers.
Remember that there is always a fall-back; if the browser can't show the first font, it will fall back on the second declaration. Like this:
h1, p { font-family: 'Comfortaa Regular', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; }
So make sure you pick a fall-back font that matches the ideal font, so the differences are minimal.

Still prefer cufon as my font
Still prefer cufon as my font solution. The fonts are so much cleaner cross browser. I have used @fontyourface byt in chrome the font still looks very bumpy , maybe it was just the font i was using but ... I dont have any problem with cufon. I might be overlooking something .
How about my fonts?
Hi Tim,
do you find my fonts bumpy? I use Chrome as well and I think they look good. It might indeed be the font you are using. The problem with Cufon is tht the user should have Flash (so no iPhone support) and that you cannot select the text. Plus that you see a flicker as the default font is replaced with the flash version by Javascript. I don't say Cufon is bad (it really helped before @font-face was available) but at the moment I don't see any added value above @font-face.
Cufon doesn't use Flash
Cufon uses Canvas in modern browsers, and VML in Internet Explorer.
Nonetheless, @font-face is a lot easier, faster and less troublesome than Cufon.
Problem with Google fonts and iPad Safari
Narrowed down the issue a little
The problem appears isolated to assigning the fonts to the #site-name and #site-slogan tags, at least from what I can see thus far. I applied a third Google font to the H1 tag and that is displaying fine on my iOS devices.
Okay, think I fixed it?
I disabled all the associated modules and the theme, and re-enabled everything from scratch. Now it all appears to be working so I believe the problem was something in my installation.
This is not an issue queue ;)
Hi Mark,
glad you got it working. In the feature, please post your question in the issue queue, were others can help as well. (I saw you did, thanks!).
love it
@font-your-face is an awesome tool in my drupal bag. thanks for the effort to put this together and make it free to the world.
Q: I'm trying to import a local OTF file, but seems to be failing because of extension. What is the recommended solution?
More than welcome!
Try converting your OTF file to EOT, TTF and WOFF, using onlinefontconverter.com.
Great Font Face
I like @font-face, but how @font-face fast to load? Very thanks.
Quite fast
It's actually quite fast, faster than Flash replacements. The fonts are cached by your browser, so once you have them, the loading goes smooth. By using a font provider like Google Fonts it's even faster, because they use a CDN to deliver the fonts from the nearest webserver in your location.

Gallery: iRock Rocking Chair Charges Y...
+ iRock estimated price €1300
+ Micasa Lab
iRock is also designed to charge any other Apple device. Made with pine wood and painted in shiny white or various other hues, the chair's design is appealing, but think about this: The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) notes that the annual cost of charging an iPad every other day is only around $1.36 a year. Considering you'd have to shell out a whopping €1300 for this chair, and factoring in that this chair isn't exactly eco-friendly, you may be better off with a $10 charger. Also, how many gadget minded items do you really need? You tell us. Would you buy the iRock?

Pakistan has seen dramatic increases in rates of diabetes prevalence and incidence over recent years. Obesity, a key risk factor for type 2 diabetes in young people, is rising concomitantly rapidly in Pakistan, especially in the cities and towns. Young people in Pakistan carry an ethnicity-related high risk for obesity-driven type 2 diabetes. A 2010 World Bank report warned that Pakistan is facing a health crisis, with rising rates of diabetes, obesity, heart disease obesity and other non-communicable diseases, which are disproportionately affecting poor families and worsening the burden of poverty. According to the report, chronic diseases account for 59% of the total disease burden in Pakistan.1

Topic: New one for my Believers!
This one really gave me the heebie jeebies!
Watching TV in bed tonight and I have 7 old framed pictures on a wall. One is Teddy and his brother when they were kids and another is a wedding picture of us. All of a sudden I hear a sound like a very tiny motor. I went to the wall and it was coming only from Teddy's picture w/ his Bro. I told him I loved him and the noise jumped to our wedding picture then stopped. There was NO noise in the apartment at all and I had the TV on mute. Nothing came out of the other 5 pics. The only explanation I can think of is he was trying to tell me he was with Frank since the noise jumped from one to the other. Any ideas?
Any suggestion I offer is intended as friendly advice based solely on my own experience. Please consult your doctor for professional guidance.

Beyond eating right and getting exercise, dealing with your stress levels is a crucial component to heart health. Stress can lead to high blood pressure, sleep deprivation, weight gain, overeating and an increase in high-risk behaviors, such as drinking and smoking cigarettes. Those are just some of the things stress can induce that are related to heart-health.
No one is exempt from stress, so we might as well start figuring out how to manage it. None of these tips are new, but they make for an excellent reminder of how we should be taking care of ourselves.
- Move more! Get out and walk for 20 minutes on your lunch break or take a five minute cruise around the office every hour. Can't leave your office or your desk? There are some great stretches and breathing techniques that calm your body and mind, here. Exercise releases endorphins which make your mind and body feel good and naturally reduce stress. read more about exercise and stress here.
- Sleep more! A properly rested body and mind will be more equipped to deal with the daily ups and downs you face. Every body is different in how much sleep it requires, but on average, adults need 8 hours every night. Instead of burning the midnight oil trying to finish a project, go to bed earlier and let the project wait. Your mind and body will be better-equipped to handle the project after a good night's sleep. I know how impossible that sounds to some of you, but if you can manage it, it will be worth it.
- Have trouble sleeping? I personally have trouble falling asleep at night and use relaxation techniques to help me hit the hay more smoothly. This is a wonderful article from Women's Health about sleep and how to get the most out of your night.
- Let it go! Some things are just not worth the energy; find a way to let small things go while still holding sight of the big picture. I like to think , "Will this matter in a week/month/year?" If the answer is no, then it is not worth it and shouldn't be taking up any of your vital brain space.
- Laugh more! People who laugh often are generally happier and more relaxed. Laughter is the perfect cure for stress. The hormones released when you laugh combat the stress hormones in the body, such as cortisol and epinephrine, and promotes the immune system. So lighten up and check out funny blogs like The Oatmeal or visit YouTube to find the newest funny videos.
- Touch more! Whether you snuggle with a loved one, a pet, or simply start hugging your friends more often, the physical interaction promotes hormones that naturally calm us. If these options are not available or make you uncomfortable, a 30-minute massage will work wonders to reduce your stress!
Here is a wonderful article on stress heart disease from WebMd.

Bell Bottom Blues: Five Modern Effect Pedals That Recreate Groovy '70s Sounds
Bell bottoms? Check. Blacklight posters? Check. Glossy photo of Marcia Brady? Check.
Strap into the Wayback Machine, Sherman! Today we're heading back to that glorious decade known as the 1970s to take a look at five great effect pedals that will transport your rig back to a golden age of guitar.
From the overdriven sounds of Jimmy Page and Tony Iommi to the out-of-this-world prog tones of David Gilmour and Alex Lifeson, the '70s were pivotal in creating some of the guitar sounds that are still being ripped off by today's class of rock guitarists.
Whether you're putting together the ultimate Pink Floyd or Led Zeppelin tribute band or just trying to add a bit of vintage flare to your modern-rock masterpiece, the pedals on this list are sure to help you recapture some of that groovy '70s magic.
This list was compiled by a group of Guitar World staffers including Gear Editor Paul Riario.
EarthQuaker Devices Bit Commander
Although synths would take over the air waves completely in the next decade, they were still an inescapable part of the ever-evolving guitar landscape of the 1970s.
For its simple architecture and versatility, the Earthquaker Devices Bit Commander is our pick for the guitar synth you need in your arsenal. Handmade in Akron, Ohio, the Bit Commander proves a grittier alternative to the cleaner, slicker sounds of the Subdecay Octasynth or the POG.
In some ways, the Bit Commander is almost cheating in a list limited to five effects, as it doubles as a useful octave fuzz. The six control knobs — Sub, Down 1, Up 1, Filter, Level and Base — ensure a high degree of control and nearly endless potential for custom settings.
MSRP: $175 | Check out this pedal at EarthquakerDevices.com.

What's the word about the turnout? Did the conservatives show up today? Or were they home shivering in their boots? Think all the union braying and threatening got through to some of the Indies that weren't in this to get beat up?
Do other Wisconsinites realize what a bellweather they are for what happens in the rest of the nation, or have they just given in to the unionistas?

Well it's simple, which I like sometimes. And it's cute. You should consider having someone make a banner out of Mr. Watson for you.

By Patsy R. Brumfield/NEMS Daily Journal
FULTON – Dr. David C. Cole, who led Itawamba Community College to new respect nationally, announced Friday he will retire effective June 30.
"It's been on my mind for a while," said Cole, reflecting on his 44-year career in public education, 20 of those as ICC president.
Thursday night, ICC's Board of Trustees accepted Cole's retirement at its monthly board meeting.
Mike Eaton of Fulton, a former ICC football coach and athletics director and now assistant to the president, will become president July 1. Eaton also has served as dean of students and vice president of student services.
Ripley banker Bobby Martin, a longtime supporter of Cole and ICC, was surprised at the news.
But, he said, Eaton – as a native Tippah Countian – "is an outstanding human being and an excellent selection for ICC to continue moving up."
Cole, 66, said ICC has had a succession plan before the board since October.
"This is a good time," Cole said. "Coles don't live much over 75. I believe I need to transition out."
He joked that once he retires, he may start an Internet blog or run for president.
Cole and his wife, Betty, have four adult children and nine grandchildren.
He became ICC president in 1993 after 18 years as superintendent of South Panola School District in Batesville, where he and his wife grew up.
He holds a host of community awards and board memberships and is a former chairman of the Mississippi Association of Community and Junior Colleges Presidents Association.
Cole also has been a regular and effective presence at the Mississippi Legislature on behalf of the community colleges statewide.
As ICC's fourth president, he is widely recognized as an innovator and a visionary who worked his relationship networks and financially able friends to build a modern, vibrant campus in Fulton, as well as new and expanded campuses in Tupelo and Belden. He also raised thousands of dollars quietly to help individual students afford higher education.
Last year, he received a premier honor as the Southern Region's Chief Executive Officer Award winner for the Association of Community College Trustees.
Under Cole's leadership, ICC was selected last April as one of the nation's top 120 community colleges.
He also was instrumental in helping build the educational and political groundwork for Toyota to locate its newest U.S. manufacturing plant in Northeast Mississippi.
Dan Lee Bishop, ICC's board chairman, said of Cole when he nominated him for the ACCT award, he "is committed to ICC's students and faculty."
"He's never too busy to take a few minutes to visit with those who seek him out or to initiate conversations with anyone he sees on his walks, both day and night, across campus."
Friday, Cole termed Eaton "the right person at the right time," to lead ICC.
"He is credited with providing the leadership for every major initiative the college has undertaken in the last few years," Cole said about Eaton. "His experience and love for the college make him the natural choice."

This car isn't too fancy. This can either be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on the downloader. For me, it's a good thing because I think that it blends in with all the other cars around Vice City (and the all around theme) very nicely, which makes it a good car to see driving around the streets. This car is designed for the Myriad Isle CMP.

I'm adding another choke to the mix. I'm pretty happy with the two I currently hunt with (Wright's .660 & Kick's .655) in my SBE II but wanted to add another to tighten the pattern for perhaps 5 more yards. I ordered a TruGlo SSX from Clark @ All About Shooting (thanks!) and hope to put it to good use this year. Sections of the trees at my lease were thinned & selective cut a couple of years ago that has opened up farther shot possibilities.
My farthest shot on a turkey has been 27 yards, so a new choke is kind of unnecessary, I just want any advantage I can get.
How about you, what do you hunt with?

ITS introduces first step in improved support for all campuses through two new service desks
Communications, Public Affairs & Marketing
Jul 27/11
Lauriers Information Technology Services (ITS) is introducing improved service initiatives to meet the unique needs of the different user groups within the Laurier community.
Beginning August 15th, the former ITS Help Desk will be split into two service desks: an Employee Service Desk devoted to faculty and staff ITS support and service requests, and a Student Service Desk devoted to student support needs.
This change is a key component of Lauriers ICT renewal plan, says Tom Buckley, vice-president: academic services. By devoting specific service desks to specific needs, we will be able to respond in a highly efficient manner.
To provide quick, effective service, all ITS-related calls will be directed through either the Employee Service Desk or the Student Service Desk. Every attempt will be made to resolve callers issues during the initial phone call. If the request cannot be resolved at first contact, it will then be logged as a service request and the most appropriate local ITS support staff member at each campus will respond directly.
This process is consistent with ITS best practices, and we are confident that the Laurier community will benefit from this streamlined approach, says Julie Topic, director, ICT support. We encourage everyone to direct all of their IT-related questions through their appropriate service desk.
The Employee Service Desk staff will be dedicated to providing ITS support for faculty and staff, including account issues, GroupWise email support and service requests.
The Student Service Desk will be staffed by students who are familiar with student ITS needs, including support for Novell or myLaurier accounts, wireless, ResNet and other systems such as LORIS and myLearning Space.
Brantford: Staff and faculty can direct all ITS-related requests through the Employee Service Desk by contacting ext. 4357 or email@example.com. The Student Service Desk can be reached at ext. 2222 or firstname.lastname@example.com. Students, staff and faculty can request support in person at RCE 110. To enter a service request online, click http://22.214.171.124/wlu/
Waterloo/Kitchener: Staff and faculty can direct all ITS-related requests through the Employee Service Desk by contacting ext. 4357, firstname.lastname@example.com or in person on the third floor of Bricker Academic. The Student Service Desk can be reached at ext. 2222, firstname.lastname@example.com or in person in the Concourse. To enter a service request online, click https://www.wlu.ca/forms_detail.php?grp_id=2032&frm_id=2039
ITS will also move to an automated attendant for the Laurier Waterloo switchboard (519-884-1970) to provide more efficient connectivity. Laurier Brantford successfully uses an automated attendant for external callers.
This model of service delivery will allow us to provide more efficient connectivity and enhance customer service, said Buckley. Callers will still be able to press zero to reach an operator if they prefer.
With the automated attendant, callers will be able to choose from a number of preset menu options, and can reach people by entering their extension or the first few digits of their last name.
All changes will be implemented by August 15th.

When you are out shopping for that special someone, holiday or birthday, stop by the Main Library at the Gift Shop and William Wendell Razim Used Book Store. We have unique gifts for the entire family.
William Wendell Razim pioneered the concept of educating the public on health matters by producing and hosting, Science for the People, broadcast from 1950 to 1959 on WEVD-AM, which, at the time, was a non-profit radio station in New York City. Originally, Mr. Razim approached the new broadcast medium, television, and was refused by all New York stations, as well as New York radio – all, of course, except one. His decade-long efforts all were voluntary.
For that contribution to the public's understanding of science, William Wendell Razim's biography is listed in Marquis' Who's Who in the World 2003, 20th Edition, 21st Century Editions.
His last contribution benefits the public, as well. William Wendell Razim donated his entire library of books and recordings to the Jersey City Free Public Library. Amassed over nearly 40 years, the eclectic collection includes books on history, philosophy and the complete works of literary greats such as Shakespeare, Steinbeck, Hemingway and Faulkner, as well on subjects of personal interest such as cooking. Of course, there are books on science, many of which delve into the abilities of the mind to expand its intellectual and memory powers.
His vast collection of books, CDs, audiotapes and vinyl recordings, and VHS videotapes serve as start-up inventory to stock the shelves of the now-dedicated William Wendell Razim Used Book Store.
William Wendell Razim was born in Union City, NJ on September 8, 1916, and lived most of his life in Jersey City. He is a 1942 graduate of New York University, with a post-graduate Certificate in Meteorology that was earned in 1943. Throughout his long career, Mr. Razim was a chemistry professor, as well as a technical writer and educational consultant, with avocations in botanical science and music. He served honorably in the U.S. Army Air Forces from 1942-1945 as a 2nd Lieutenant. Currently, Mr. Razim had been a resident of the Castle Hill Health Care Center in Union City at the time of his passing on December 16, 2005.
The Gift Shop & William Wendell Razim Used Book Store is a project of the Jersey City Free Public Library Foundation, Inc. All profits go to the Foundation, which, in turn, provides funding for the Library's capital improvement projects. All donations of items in good condition can be made by contacting Library Director Priscilla Gardner at 201-547-4788.

And Tim Lincecum embarrassing us?
I heard Detroit wants to bid for Lincecum. Don't bother Tigers. He had one great game but he's going to be washing up.
Anyway, we beat SF 10-1 today after they knocked us around good for 2 games, actually taking 3 and beating my poor Padres since Thursday in a 4-game series.

© 2006, 2007, 2009, 2010 The State Bar of California. No part of this work may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted in any medium, without prior written permission.
The State Bar of California's Senior Lawyers Committee and the Trusts and Estates Section of the State Bar both assisted in the development of this pamphlet.
A wheelchair-bound woman suffers in silence at the hands of an abusive caregiver. A lone widower falls victim to a predatory lending scam and loses his home. An ailing mother lies helpless in her bedroom while her son spends her life savings.
As many as one in seven senior citizens nationwide falls victim to some type of elder abuse —usually at the hands of a family member. The abuse can be financial, physical or psychological. And the consequences can be deadly. But in spite of such devastating consequences, most elder abuse goes unreported.
If you have been abused, you may be afraid of what might happen if you tell someone. Or maybe you suspect that an elderly neighbor or friend is being abused, but you do not know where to turn for assistance. Help is just a phone call away. No one has the right to hurt you—or your neighbor or friend—physically, emotionally or financially.
The aim of this pamphlet is to provide you with a basic overview of elder abuse: what it is, how the law addresses it, what can be done to help you avoid it and where you—the victim or victim's advocate—can find assistance.
It is the neglect, exploitation or "painful or harmful" mistreatment of anyone who is 65 or older (or anyone aged 18 to 64 who falls under the legal definition of a "dependent" adult). It can involve physical violence, psychological abuse, isolation, abandonment, abduction, false imprisonment or a caregiver's neglect. It could also involve the unlawful taking of a senior's money or property.
In short, elder abuse involves various crimes, such as theft, assault or identity theft, that strike victims of all ages. But when the victim is 65 years old or older (or a dependent adult), the criminal could face stiffer penalties.
If the abuse, neglect or exploitation is taking place in a private home, call the Adult Protective Services (APS). Check your county phone listings for a local APS office. Or, for a referral, you could call 1-800-510-2020. (In addition, many counties have specialized teams that deal with financial elder abuse; ask the APS worker if such a team exists in your area.)
If the abuse is occurring in a licensed long-term care facility, such as a nursing home, call the local long-term care ombudsman. (To locate an ombudsman, call 1-800-231-4024.) Your report will be confidential, and you can remain anonymous.
You could also call the California Attorney General's Bureau of Medi-Cal Fraud and Elder Abuse complaint hotline at 1-800-722-0432, and the local police department and county district attorney's office.
For further information and guidance, request a free publication entitled A Citizen's Guide to Preventing & Reporting Elder Abuse by writing to: The Office of the Attorney General, 1425 River Park Drive, Suite 300, Sacramento, CA 95815. The guide is also available at ag.ca.gov (click on Publications and Elder Abuse).
Yes, if you are responsible, with or without pay, for taking care of an elder or dependent adult. Others, too, must report suspected elder abuse: administrators, supervisors and licensed staff of facilities providing care and services to the elderly; APS employees; health practitioners (such as physicians); police officers; clergy members; and elder or dependent adult care custodians. Care custodians include, for example, home health agency administrators and staff, and fire department members. If a mandated reporter fails to report known or suspected abuse, he or she could face criminal charges.
In addition, all officers and employees of financial institutions must report known or suspected financial elder abuse as well—or risk facing civil penalties.
Yes. If you are worried about a parent or other elderly person who lives in a different community, contact the police or sheriff's department in his or her area and request a well-being or welfare check.
No. And different laws apply to each as well. Unlike elder abuse, the law defines domestic violence as certain kinds of abuse directed toward a spouse or former spouse, domestic partner or former domestic partner, cohabitant, or person of any age with whom the abuser has had a "dating or engagement relationship," has had a child, or is related by blood or marriage. Such violence is behavior driven by the need to control. It can range from threats to unwanted sexual touching and hitting. It cuts across all cultures, ethnic backgrounds, education levels and income brackets. If the victim of domestic violence is 65 or older, the matter may be treated as a case of elder abuse.
If you are in immediate danger, call 911. When the police arrive, explain what happened. In both elder abuse and domestic violence cases, the officers can contact an on-call judicial officer and issue an immediate Emergency Protective Order (EPO). This legally prohibits the abuser from coming near you or contacting you. The EPO will remain in effect for five court days or seven calendar days. Then, to extend the order, you can seek a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO). Just fill out the forms at your local courthouse. The TRO will go into effect as soon as it has been signed by a judge and delivered to the abuser. And it can be made "permanent," which means that it will be good for up to five years and can be renewed.
In addition, in cases of elder abuse, the senior citizen need not have suffered physical abuse to obtain a restraining order. An elder abuse restraining order can prohibit the mental or financial abuse of a senior as well.
Keep in mind, however, that restraining orders do not eliminate the risk of future violence or other types of abuse. A restraining order may help protect you, but you should remain on guard.
As an added protection, state law allows domestic violence victims to keep their addresses confidential through the state's Safe at Home program. This means that your home address need not appear on court papers or other official documents. For information, call 1-877-322-5227 (or visit the program's website at sos.ca.gov/safeathome).
To locate a local shelter or counseling, call the National Domestic Violence 24-hour hotline at 1-800-799-7233 (for TTY, call 1-800-787-3224). Another resource is the State Bar's free pamphlet Can the Law Help Protect Me from Domestic Violence? (See #16 for information on ordering it.)
You cannot be sure, especially if the caregiver is simply providing personal assistance with such daily rituals as dressing or preparing meals. You can hire this type of caregiver through a home care agency or home care referral company. Or you could hire someone on your own and pay the payroll taxes and worker's compensation insurance. But in either case, be extremely cautious, seek referrals and ask a lot of questions. Such caregivers are not regulated by anyone.
Caregivers who provide medical care, however, must be licensed or certified. You can hire such caregivers through a licensed home health care agency.
Home health care agencies, certified nurse assistants, registered nurses, nurse practitioners and vocational nurses must be licensed or certified by the state.
To locate caregiver resources in your area, call the Eldercare Locator at 1-800-677-1116 or go to www.eldercare.gov.
Yes. Americans lose billions of dollars each year in telemarketing fraud and mail scams alone, for example. And seniors are often the victims. You could be approached through the mail, by telephone, via e-mail or at your front door. Know your rights and how you might be vulnerable. As the old adage goes: If it seems too good to be true, it probably is. A few common scams include:
Yes. Some self-proclaimed "trust specialists" and financial planning "experts" have no advanced training or qualifications in estate planning. And these so-called experts may have ulterior motives. For example, they might be seeking to gain access to your personal financial information to sell you insurance-based products, such as annuities, which may not be appropriate for you (see Living Trust Mills on page 7). Recent changes in the law also prohibit broker-dealers and investment advisors (and their agents and representatives) from using any "senior specific" certification, credential or professional designation that could be misleading. Before considering a living trust or any other estate or financial planning document or service:
You can register your telephone numbers with the National Do-Not-Call Registry, which is managed by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). To register a phone number, simply call 1-888-382-1222 or go to the website (donotcall.gov).
You can also "opt out" of the credit agencies' pre-approved credit offer mailing lists. Simply call 1-888-5-OPTOUT (1-888-567-8688) or opt out online at optoutprescreen.com. And you can ask those with whom you do business to remove your name from their marketing lists.
Notify the credit card company immediately. If someone runs up your credit card or uses your debit card without authorization, you usually are only liable for up to $50 if you contact the company promptly. It is also important to file a police report to document the loss and your response. And you should contact the following credit-reporting bureaus to report the missing credit card, place a fraud alert on your account and request copies of your credit report:
Experian: 1-888-397-3742 (alerts/reports)
Trans Union: 1-800-680-7289 (alerts); 1-800-916-8800 (reports)
Equifax: 1-800-525-6285 (alerts); 1-800-685-1111 (reports)
With your Social Security number and certain other personal information, an imposter can open credit cards in your name, take out loans and gain access to your money. And you could wind up with ruined credit, financial losses and even, in some cases, a criminal record for crimes that you did not commit. So you should safeguard your personal information, particularly your Social Security number, whenever possible.
Maintaining confidentiality can be difficult, however, because so many agencies and financial institutions use Social Security numbers to verify personal identity. In recent years, changes in the law have added new protections. For example, neither individuals nor business organizations (with the exception of some government agencies) can publicly display your Social Security number. Nor can your number be printed on any card required to access products or services. In addition, your health care provider can no longer print your number on your identification card. And you cannot be required to transmit your number over the Internet unless the connection is "secure" or "encrypted."
As an added precaution, avoid carrying your Social Security card in your wallet or purse and never give out your Social Security number unless the requesting company or agency can, by law, require it. For more information, call the Department of Consumer Affairs' Office of Privacy Protection at 1-866-785-9663 or visit the office's website at privacy.ca.gov.
Identity theft is the unauthorized use of someone's personal data (a driver's license or Social Security number, for example) for any unlawful purpose, such as to obtain credit cards, loans, automobiles, products or services. Surveys suggest that more than 8 million Americans fall victim to identity theft each year—a crime that costs businesses, financial institutions and consumers billions of dollars.
To keep tabs on your credit, you can request one free credit report annually from each of the three major credit bureaus (the bureaus listed under #12). To order your free annual reports, call 1-877-322-8228 or visit the program's website at: annualcreditreport.com.
If you fall victim to an identity thief, you will need to take certain steps to alert the authorities, stop the crime, protect your credit rating and ensure that the thief's actions do not damage your financial status in the future. For example, you should call the major credit-reporting agencies and put a fraud alert on your account, file a police report, register a complaint with the FTC, and send out an ID Theft Affidavit to any business in which a fraudulent account was opened.
For more detailed information, visit the websites run by the FTC (ftc.gov), the Privacy Rights Clearinghouse (privacyrights.org), California's Office of Privacy Protection (privacy.ca.gov), the Identity Theft Resource Center (idtheftcenter.org) and the California Attorney General's Office (ag.ca.gov/idtheft).
Visit the websites of the National Center on Elder Abuse (www.ncea.aoa.gov), the National Committee for the Prevention of Elder Abuse (preventelderabuse.org) and California Advocates for Nursing Home Reform (canhr.org).
Under the federal Older Americans Act, every county has free legal services for seniors who are 60 years old or older. The programs differ, however, and their criteria for accepting cases vary as well.
Also, if you are at least 60, you may be able to get free legal advice by calling the Senior Legal Hotline at 1-800-222-1753 (in the Sacramento area, call 916-551-2140) or by visiting the hotline's website at seniorlegalhotline.org. (Note: In 2010, services were limited due to funding cuts.)
If neither the county's legal services program nor the hotline can assist you, ask a friend, co-worker or business associate to recommend a lawyer. Or call a State Bar-certified lawyer referral service. For an online list of certified referral services, visit the State Bar's website at calbar.ca.gov/lrs. For a recorded message with the phone numbers of certified services in your county, call 1-866-44-CA-LAW (1-866-442-2529). If you are out of state, you can call 415-538-2250 to hear the same recorded message.
State Bar-certified lawyer referral services, which must meet minimum standards established by the California Supreme Court, can assist you in finding the right lawyer for your particular problem. Most of these services offer half-hour consultations for a modest fee.
Attorneys who are members of certified lawyer referral services must carry insurance, agree to fee arbitration for fee disputes, meet standards of experience and be State Bar members in good standing.
Lawyer referral service fees do vary. Don't forget to ask whether there is a fee for the referral or consultation. And if you decide to hire a lawyer, make sure you understand what you will be paying for, how much it will cost and when you will be expected to pay your bill. You may want to talk to several attorneys before you hire one.
Also, if you receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or certain other government benefits, you could qualify to have your court fees and costs waived—even if you are represented by a private attorney.
For more information on finding an attorney, see the State Bar pamphlet How Can I Find and Hire the Right Lawyer? To order a free copy of this pamphlet or for a list of other available consumer pamphlets, send an e-mail to email@example.com. For information on ordering the bar's consumer publications by mail, call 1-888-875-LAWS (5297).
The State Bar also produces Seniors and the Law—a guide that touches on a variety of senior issues, including elder abuse. To order this guide free of charge, simply e-mail your request to firstname.lastname@example.com. Or visit the State Bar's Web site—calbar.ca.gov—where you'll find the bar's various consumer pamphlets and guides, as well as information on ordering them.
The purpose of this pamphlet is to provide general information on the law, which is subject to change. If you have a specific legal problem, you may want to consult a lawyer.

What is it? A gaggle of crazy mini-games which will help you save the Little Deviants from the evil Botz.
Why it'll shine: If the alien world of Whoman looks strangely familiar, that's because the rear camera of PS Vita lets you play among your own, real-world surroundings.

Play it if you like: Working the angles to sink impossible shots with real style.
What is it? The dartboard you can take with you wherever you go.
Why it'll shine: With nine classic darts games, a selection of traditional and bizarre dartboard designs and the ability to challenge up to seven players to take part in turn-based matches, the only things missing are chunky gold jewellery and an outsized nylon shirt.

Original post by shurcool
He said he's working on a final year research project. Key word is research.
You have misunderstood me. I fully support the idea of doing research into these things. I was just pointing out that the academic aim of wanting to get a certain tool to be able to perform a certain task is different from the industrial/pragmatic aim of choosing the tool for the task that involves the least risk.
You could potentially spend forever adjusting inputs, outputs, and hidden layers to try and get your neural network doing something useful, with no guarantee of getting anything that is good enough to be playable, or you can pick a method that explicitly accounts for all the scenarios a developer can envisage and get it working more reliably.
And what happens in a scenario that the developer did not originally envisage?
IMO, this is where the AI can come closest to 'making or breaking' the game - those unexpected but possible scenarios.
Yet they could still appear in neural networks, if you didn't think to include such things in your training data. Perhaps you get lucky and the net generalised to cover that case, and perhaps it didn't. You're not guaranteed to be any better off. So when you have a goal to meet and other tools available, tools tried and tested in many other applications, you use them.
I now realize I wouldn't want to go into game development if it ends up involving nothing but spitting out cookie-cut, run-of-the-mill games.
No need for the hyperbole, really. If you have a job to do, then you have a job to do. You can't just expect to be allowed to spend months on R&D to try and come up with a new way of approaching something that isn't guaranteed to work, when there are existing tools that are guaranteed to work. Do that at university, or when self-employed, or when you've worked your way up to a position where you can get funding for such approaches. You'll be lucky to find many jobs in any industry that allow you to spend your wages playing with academic toys that are unproven in the area you're working in.

Discover the Trilogy® Difference
Active Lifestyle Resort Communities
Over 2,600 people have made the move to Trilogy in the last year alone. Why do people love Trilogy® Active Lifestyle Communities so much? There are thousands of reasons, from the stunning Clubs and enriching amenities, to the energy efficient SheaXero™ and SheaSolar™ homes to the vibrant people who live in each one of our locations. We invite you to explore all there is to life in a Trilogy by Shea Homes community and see why we're different inside and out. Trilogy. Built to bring people together. Designed to stand apart. > Explore Trilogy Communities Across the Country
Hear from actual trilogy® homeowners
Real Owners Share Their Stories
It feels like you are on a vacation, but you didn't have to pack and you didn't have to pay the valet. You don't have to go out every day to eat. It's like you live in a resort. My favorite way to describe it is "Home Sweet Resort!"
- Marie D'Amato, Trilogy Orlando
The cost savings is extremely important. That's what really sold us on the SheaXero house, the energy efficiency. I would have liked solar, but it was never affordable in the past. So, when they threw in solar, I was over the moon."
- Paul & Lavone Oldale, Shea Homes at Ardiente
My wife and I checked out the other homes in the area, but none were built with the quality of Shea. Then you add the friendly people in this smaller Community, the friendly Guard's at the gate for security, and quality homes with solar power. Our Community has personality, it doesn't look cookie cutter, and with the five parks there is always someone walking about and talking to their neighbors. It has been easy to find Clubs and activities to be involved in our Community. Great homes, and a perfect Community!"
– Donald Marx, Shea Homes at Ardiente
Trilogy is ahead of the curve with their SheaXero homes. They had the three things that were important to us: low cost, environmental responsibility and social responsibility."
– Glenn and Sherrill Erdell, Trilogy at Vistancia

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a safe and painless test that uses a magnetic field and radio waves to produce detailed pictures of the bodys organs and structures. Unlike CAT scans or X-rays, MRI doesnt use radiation.
An MRI scanner is a large doughnut-shaped magnet that often has a tunnel in the center. Patients are placed on a table that slides into the tunnel. Some hospitals and radiology centers use what are called "open" MRI machines. They have larger openings and are helpful for patients with claustrophobia (a fear of being in tight, enclosed spaces).
During the MRI exam, radio waves manipulate the magnetic position of the bodys atoms, which are picked up by a powerful antenna and sent to a computer. The computer does millions of calculations to create clear, cross-sectional black-and-white images of the body. These images can be converted into three-dimensional (3-D) pictures of the scanned area that can help pinpoint problems in the body.
Theres usually no need to do anything special (like fasting) before getting an MRI. However, because metal can leave a bright or blank spot on the diagnostic film, youll need to remove any objects containing metal, such as eyeglasses, jewelry, or belts. (Dont worry, though: braces and dental fillings wont interfere with the scan.) The MRI tech may ask questions about whether you have internal metal clips from surgery or anything else that might cause a problem near the strong magnetic field.
Sometimes people get sedated (given medication so they fall asleep) during an MRI. Sedation is usually for infants and young kids who might have trouble staying still during the MRI, but sometimes sedation can help teens with claustrophobia.
If you need to get sedation, your doctor will ask you not to eat or drink anything for several hours before the MRI. If youre getting sedation, let the MRI technician know if you have any allergies, previous drug reactions, or if you might be pregnant. For most teens who need sedation, its enough to take an oral sedative (i.e., a pill or liquid), on the way to the hospital or imaging center. But sometimes, a teen may get sedatives through an IV line into the arm or hand.
An MRI exam usually takes 20-90 minutes, depending on the type of study your doctor has asked for. Youll lie on the movable scanning table and the technician will move you into position. The table will slide into the tunnel and the technician will take images. Each scan will last a few minutes.
Sometimes a person needs to get a contrast solution to help the MRI detect specific problems. Contrast solution highlights areas of the body, such as blood vessels, and is usually given through an intravenous line (IV). As with sedatives, the technician will ask if youre allergic to any medications or food before giving you the contrast solution.
If you feel cold lying on the MRI table, ask for a blanket before the test starts. Its important to stay still during the actual MRI so that the images come out clearly. If an image is blurred, it may need to be done over.
The noises that the MRI makes can be loud! Although you wont be able to bring your own music player into the MRI room, some centers will give you special headphones so you can listen to music. The headphones also let you talk to the technician.
Even if the MRI doesnt have headphones, it may have an intercom system so the technician can talk to you or give you instructions during the test, or a call button that you can press if you need help. Once the exam is over, the technician will help you off the table or wheel you on the table to a recovery area (if youve been sedated).
After the test is over, youll probably be able to return to your normal routines and diet right away. Most sedation will wear off within 1-2 hours, and any contrast material should be gone from your body in about 24 hours.
MRIs are safe and easy. No health risks have been associated with the magnetic field or radio waves, since the low-energy radio waves use no radiation. The procedure can be repeated without side effects.
Allergic reactions to contrast solution are rare, and the technician and other staff are prepared to handle such cases. The same is true if a person has a reaction to any sedation. If you have decreased kidney function, be sure to talk to the radiologist and technician before receiving IV contrast, since it can lead to some rare complications.
You wont get your MRI results right away. Thats because the scans need to be viewed by a radiologist whos specially trained in reading and interpreting the scans. The radiologist will send a report to your doctor, who will discuss the results with you and explain what they mean.

Family: Salmonidae, Trouts view all from this family
Description The lake whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis) is a species of freshwater whitefish from North America. Common names include whitefish, Sault whitefish, gizzard fish, grande coregone (French) and attikumaig (Chippewa). Lake whitefish are found throughout much of Canada and parts of the northern United States, including all of the Great Lakes. A valuable commercial fish, they are also occasionally taken by sport fishermen. Smoked, refrigerated, vacuum-packed lake whitefish fillets are now commonly available in North American grocery stores.
Their colouration is olive-green to blue on the back, with silvery sides. They have a small mouth below a rounded snout, and a deeply forked tail. On average, they reach 17 to 22 inches and weigh 1.5 to 4 pounds. They are found in freshwater lakes where they prefer deep, cool water.
Lake whitefish spawn from September through January in water two to four metres in depth. In northwestern Canada, a large spawning migration enters the Athabasca Delta in late summer, moving upstream in the Athabasca River. The longest single movement of a tagged whitefish ever recorded was 388 km (241 mi), from Fort McMurray to the north shore of Lake Athabasca in Alberta, Canada.
The lake whitefish is considered Least Concern on the IUCN Red List list. However, the distinct stock called Lake Simcoe Whitefish is considered a Threatened species on the red list.
Natural predators include burbot, lake trout and northern pike.
Primarily bottom feeders, lake whitefish eat crustaceans, snails, insects, and other small aquatic organisms.
Since the end of the last glaciation (about 12000 years ago), whitefish have been able to re-colonize many North American lakes. As they invaded those environments, they have also diversified into different populations, such that they are now two main ecotypes recognized within the species: a normal and a dwarf ecotype. These normal and dwarf ecotypes are mainly differentiated by the benthic and pelagic zone they occupy, respectively. Normal whitefish also grow much bigger and live much longer than the dwarf ecotype.
Many of these populations live in sympatry, yet are reproductively isolated. The fact that they are young species makes them prime candidate to study the evolutionary forces driving their ecological divergence and reproductive isolation.
Dimensions Up to 24" (61 cm); 42 lbs (19.1 kg).
Habitat Lakes & ponds, Rivers & streams.
Range Plains, Great Lakes, New England, Rocky Mountains, Eastern Canada, Western Canada, Alaska.


text: I really like my Avery holster for my TT2 Flyway Special. When I went to the Flyway Special 3 The Avery holster didn't fit. Avery also said they were not going to make one to fit the new version. I've since gone to a TriTronics holster I bought from LCS. It works but no where near as nice as the old Avery one. I clip my holster to my Avery neoprene shell vest.

For all of you that support the former players in their lawsuit....This is what it brings.
Our game stands a real chance of going away in any recognizable form.
ETA; Don't know why Goddell is getting bashed on this. He doesn't have any choice
but to propose any new thing he can think of to promote "safety", because of lawsuits.

Where did I knock the phins? Saying I don't think the '72 phins were the best of all time is not knocking them and by the way Don Shula and Dick Anderson agree w/ me. here are a few others:
�I�ll say that this ring is for Super Bowl VIII, the one after the perfect season,�� said Newman, a rookie guard on the champion 1973 Dolphins who went on to play in four Pro Bowls during his 12-year career. �Certainly, it�s more memorable to be perfect, but the players off that 1972 team will tell you they thought the �73 team was better.���We had a better team in 1973,�� said Kiick, a gritty running back who scored touchdowns in both Miami Super Bowl wins. �The schedule was tougher, and we also were more experienced. The record wasn�t perfect, but we dominated the Super Bowl.��http://www.foxsportsflorida.com/nfl/...blockID=834869�A lot of the guys on the teams were the same, but we were a more polished team and more mature team,�� Warfield, a wide receiver, said of 1973. �We had understood the concept of winning when everybody was gunning to try to beat us. We were a better team in 1973.��
