Hi there,
I really need some help trying to explain when we use certain participle clauses. What is the rule for using a present participle, past participle or a present perfect participle clause? My students (and me!) are finding it difficult to identify when you should use the different participles when transforming the sentences.
For example, the following sentences:
1) She was intrigued by the news and wanted to know more - Intrigued by the news she wanted to know more
2) James was delayed by the traffic on the motorway, so he was extremely late - delayed by the traffic on the motorway, James was extremely late.
3) She wasn't particularly interested in the talk and decided not to go - Not being particularly interested in the talk, she decided not to go.
4) She didn't make a very good impression at the interview and was worried that she wouldn't get the job - Not having made a good impression at the interview, she was worried she wouldn't get the job.
Why do we use these participles for these sentences? Is their a clear rule? For example, why do we use the "being" in 3) but not in 1) & 2)? Why do we using "having" in 4?
I'd appreciate if anyone could explain this to me, i'm really struggling with it!
Many thanks

The Internship Dictionary!
"I'd like to start a small business selling sugar scrubs, lotions, soaps, and other beauty products. How do I get started and get my name out there?" —Samantha
That sounds awesome and a ton of fun! A great way to begin is to start selling things to your friends and family. If they like your products, they'll spread the word (and give you constructive feedback too!). From there, you can make a Facebook page, Twitter and Pinterest accounts, and promote yourself on social media. The best part is, it's free! Once you sell a few products and save up some money, take out an ad in your school or community newspaper, too.
"I'm insecure think that no one will hire me if I apply for a job. Any advice?" —Sierra
Confidence is key! If you need help filling out applications or writing a résumé, talk to your advisor or academic counselor at school. During the interview, focus on all of the things that you're good at and mention things that you would like to learn.
And, above all, apply for jobs that seem interesting to you! If you love fashion, you can work for a clothing store; if you love animals, volunteer at a shelter; and if you love sports, you can be a coach for younger kids. Once you find an interesting job, you'll be too happy and excited to be self-conscious!

"We personalized this for our business, and really liked the colors. The quality was high and we look forward to recieving feedback from our recipients soon. All of our people liked the card."
"We were very pleased with the 2014 calendar card we ordered to send to our good clients, friends, and family members. The picture turned out kind of faded, but it was okay over all. The tiny prints rep in the print department suggested to us that the photo would be best if lighter than the original image we uploaded. The photo turned out even lighter than we expected (based on the proof sent to us). My husband is very dark skinned and my shirt a very vibrant bright green. The photo looks kind of pale and washed out. Otherwise, we liked he calendar and our clients love it! We had a problem with the delivery. We were told the calendar would be delivered on Friday 11/27. It never arrived, so we called Tiny Prints. The put an expedited shipping order in to deliver the cards to us on Monday 11/30. It all worked out fine. Tiny Prints were really wonderful to work with and very accommodating!"
"Of the three samples we orderd for holiday cards this year, this is the card we selected. After years of sending more traditional cards, this one has a fresh, artistic look and the paper has a pleasing texture and finish."
"The card was exactly what I was looking for! The colors are vibrant and bright and the paper quality is fantastic. The card stock is very thick and gives the card a high end feel. Overall, a great card for the holidays!"
"We just received our cards in the mail and they are stunning. The colors are vibrant and the card stock used is an excellent quality. Tiny Prints continues to impress time after time."

Friday, July 13, 2007, 03:08 AM - Foreign Policy, News"One needs to have a clear understanding of just why it is that nuclear power is so hated all over the world," former British MI6 intelligence agent Dr. John Coleman writes. "With nuclear energy generating electricity in cheap and abundant supplies, Third World countries would gradually become independent of U.S. foreign aid and begin to assert their sovereignty. Nuclear generated electricity is THE key to bringing Third World countries out of their backward state."
Posted by Administrator
Posted by Administrator
Such is the case for Iran. For Iran to develop as a nation, it must expand its ability to produce energy. China is growing so fast that it is building two power stations every week, with most of its power coming from coal. For Iran it is not that simple. Iran has few resources for power beside oil and gas. The only feasible room to expand is through nuclear power. The United States, World Bank and other international powers benefit from nations like Iran being dependent upon them. By intimidating the world with the idea of Iran possessing nu
clear weapons, they can repress Iran's development into an independent power in the world.
According to an IAEA report, more than 98% of primary energy in Iran is derived from oil and gas resources.
The report says that Iran has approximately 13.1 milliard tons of coal, "but in regard to the existing technologies, only 10 percent of these resources are exploitable and at much higher cost than that of the international level. That is why coal plays only a minor role in Iran's energy supply mix and it is not regarded a viable option in foreseeable future."
As for renewable resources, "because of the limitation of the existing technologies for steady and reliable supply of energy and much higher unit cost of electricity generated by these resources, it is not expected that renewable play a major role in Iran's electricity system in near future."
In regards to resources for nuclear development, the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) has found that "Iran's domestic [uranium] reserves might be sufficient enough to supply the raw material for needed nuclear power plants in future."
"According to all the surveys performed in power sector of Iran," the IAEA report says, the "nuclear option is the most competitive to fossil alternatives if the existing low domestic fuel prices are gradually increased to its opportunity costs at the level of international prices."
The IAEA, responsible for promoting "safe, secure and peaceful nuclear technologies," demonstrates in this document that nuclear development is necessary for Iran to develop its economy. Coal is a cheap and easy means of producing electricity. Fifty percent of electricity in America is generated from coal. In China that number is eighty percent. Building so many coal plants, China's CO2 emissions rose by nine percent last year. The power is also produced at the expense of twenty lives a day, as 6,000 died in Chinese coal mines in 2004. Certainly this is not the path we should encourage for Iran, if the country were even capable of producing coal power effectively.
Rather than work through the IAEA to ensure that Iran can develop nuclear power safely and solely for civilian energy purposes, the United States insists that Iran stop enrichment before they will open any diplomacy with the nation. The Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), which has been signed by both Iran and the U.S., asserts "the inalienable right of all the Parties to the Treaty to develop research, production and use of nuclear energy for peaceful purposes without discrimination."
According to the report, Uranium Enrichment and Nuclear Weapon Proliferation, published by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), production of weapon-grade nuclear material is a more expensive and complex process than enrichment for electrical energy. A country must either convert an existing nuclear facility or construct a small dedicated facility to produce weapon-grade material. It is a lengthy process of converting large quantities of 3% material to small quantities of 90% material. It would be very difficult to complete this process without the detection of the IAEA.
The IAEA and various governments involved in the Iran nuclear conflict have yet to present any evidence of weapons-grade enrichment or nuclear weapons development. The IAEA does have the following concerns:
Even after three years of inspections and negotiations, several questions remain unanswered, such as the Iranian nuclear programs connections to A.Q. Khan, the Pakistani weapons scientist who operated an international black market for nuclear technologies...
Iran has not cooperated fully with the IAEA -- Iran has refused to allow IAEA to interview key individuals and to provide complete documentation on its nuclear program...
Irans leaders continue to acquire the material, equipment, and expertise to produce nuclear weapons -- Schulte said that the IAEA has reported that Iran has enough uranium hexafluoride to produce 10 nuclear weapons. The IAEA also has reported that Iran has started enriching the material a crucial step to weapons production.
It is addressing these concerns through meetings with the Irani government in a continuing effort to ensure that Iran's nuclear development is peaceful. So far, Iran has indicated no intention of developing or using nuclear weapons.
Imam Khomeini, who founded the Islamic Republic of Iran in 1979, condemned weapons of mass destruction and specifically nuclear weapons:
If they continue to make huge atomic weapons and so forth, the world may be pushed into destruction and the major loss will afflict the nations. Everybody, where he is, the writers, intellectuals and scholars and scientists throughout the world should enlighten the people of this danger, so that the masses of people will standup vis-à-vis these two powers themselves and prevent the proliferation of these arms.
Irani President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has repeatedly made it clear that Iran is pursuing nuclear energy for peaceful purposes, which it has the right to do under the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
The United States is breaking the United Nations treaty as it intimidates Iran with its military at the border and its politicians calling for a stop to enrichment. As you have read here, the IAEA has shown nuclear power to be Iran's best development opportunity. As this writer sees it, there are only two ways for concerned nations like the U.S. to handle this issue: contribute enough wind turbines and solar panels to power a large developing nation, or trust the IAEA to monitor Iran's nuclear program and keep it within the Non-Proliferation Treaty.
Just like the Bush administration does not even consider withdrawal from Iraq an option, they will not consider these two options to solve the Iran conflict either. It is not to their benefit. Independent sovereignty for Iran goes against the agenda of Bush and other elites. Profit comes from controlling Third World countries and using them for their resources. Independence is out of the picture.

As a student at Wooster High School, and member of student government, I surely know how the Board of Education's facility optimization plan will effect our high school, and our district. Let me tell you it wont be pretty, especially at the high school level.
The Board of Education has this glamorous idea of moving 8th grade classes to the high school, and designating one area of the school to them. Currently they are looking at blocking off the current math and english wings at WHS. Which #1 Leaves us with the issue of finding where to place classrooms for the math and english courses, and #2- Will mix in 8th graders with students as old as 19 years old. Im not sure about you but I wouldnt want my 12-13yr old 8th grader running around the high school with upperclassmen as old as 19 years old. Who knows what could happen.
What frustrates me even more is that the Board of Education, and administrators have no regard for the public concern. At facility optimization meetings, concerned citizens stand to let their voices be heard and all the Board and Administration has to say is "We will take your concerns into consideration" which translates to "We dont care, we arent going to listen to you, go home".
We as a community must step up to the Board of Education and Wooster City School administration and tell them enough is enough! And that's why I created this page on facebook, so you could share your concerns with other members of the community, and eventually the school board will listen.
Please visit the page here https://www.facebook.com/pages/Community-against-Wooster-City-Schools-facility-optimization/171457479630295
Now is the time for action.

"I recommend that you take the medication each day, come hell or high water."
I sometimes use this cliché' phrase as I counsel patients suffering with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Clinical research shows that diligence and persistence in use of immune system-modulating drugs is important for optimal disease control for many people with SLE. Some drugs need to be taken day in and day out, for months or years, to be most effective. Repeated clinic visits, blood monitoring requirements, pharmacy charges, and side effects all represent "hell and high water" barriers that threaten SLE patients' good intentions. Months or years get to be a long time during the battle to maintain treatments. As a prescriber who has been around the block a few times, I know that it takes dedication and diligence to adhere to regimens involving multiple medications. Until we have cures, I consider it part of my job to be a cheerleader for long-term use of proven treatments.
This week, I was reminded that persistence is also a necessary trait for those who labor in SLE research. Workers in our research groups at the U of MN had to combat "high water", literally, to keep doing the job of working for cures. On Sunday morning, February 17, a sprinkler system pipe ruptured in the Wallin Medical Biosciences (WMBB) Building on campus. 7000 gallons of water rushed out in about five minutes. Suddenly, the floors of 10 immunology laboratories, including several that conduct lupus-related research, were submerged to a depth of two inches.
The moisture and the sub-freezing temps did not deter Yaya Wang, Ph.D., Research Associate in the Division of Rheumatic and Autoimmune Diseases. Upon hearing of the flood, she threw on some rubber boots, hopped in her car, and drove straight to WMBB.
After helping other researchers to ascertain that key lab equipment and supplies were shifted above the water line, Dr. Wang got down to scientific work. She had been laser-focused on the question of whether PTPn22, a SLE "risk" gene, is important for controlling joint inflammation, for many months. Indeed, a critical and complex, two-week-long experiment to address this question was in progress when the pipe burst.
Dr. Wang determined that "hell or high water" would not prevent her from finishing the study. She calmly sloshed to her workbench and made the necessary measurements amidst the waves and the clean-up chaos. I learned yesterday that the overall experiment has been a success. The data obtained will support a soon-to-be published paper about PTPn22 and inflammation, written by Dr. Wang and other waterlogged researchers at the U of MN.
Providers and patients are fortunate to have coworkers like Dr. Wang with us on the long "Road to a Cure" for SLE. We should not be surprised, however, if future grant proposals coming from U of MN SLE researchers contain budget requests for life preservers and rowboats.

NFL Draft > 2010 Prospects > WR > Verran Tucker
Verran Tucker Scouting Report
|California Golden Bears
|Jersey Number:
|Height & Weight:
|6'1 - 202 lbs.
2010 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report:
Verran Tucker, WR, California
A two year stint at a California junior college preceded his time with the Golden Bears. One of the most coveted WR at the JUCO level, Tucker entered Cal in 2007. Then moved into the starting lineup by the seventh game of the 2008 season, posting decent numbers (21 receptions for 362 yards (17.2 ypc. and 2 TDs). His numbers did not improve that much this past season. He finished the regular season with 23 catches -- good enough for 375 yards (16.3 average) -- and without a touchdown. Tucker has above average height, bulk and strength; He uses his body well to shield defenders from the ball. He has long arms to make plays on jump balls and has the skills to become a weapon in the red zone. Though, he must improve his route-running; he is below average against zone coverage. Tucker lacks an explosive burst off the line and out of breaks, with suspect speed (4.50) and agility preventing him from being a threat in the open field. With only two seasons in his resume and limited opportunities, it is obvious that he needs more experience and a better work habit to become a better prospect. He does have the physical tools to develop into an NFL contributor in time. A possession receiver with some upside, Tucker should hear his name called around the fifth or sixth round.

Prediction: 7th Round
Tucker will get a look because of some big plays, but has a ways too go to make it.

The Geek Atlas locates for the reader sites around the world where science & technology are memorialized and, in many cases, still used today. Accompanying each site description is a short article explaining the technology discovered, invented, developed, or used.Perfect for taking a virtual vacation and getting inspired to put these places into a real trip.I received this book from a local chapter of the ACM.
A Fun, Exciting and Interesting Ride
By Greg L
from Conway, Arkansas
About Me Developer
Disclosure: I received a copy of this book from the publisher to review. I try not to let that influence my review, but I thought you should know.This is a fun book. It's full of short (2-3 page) sections describing locations where great science has taken place (128 of them). The sections are grouped by country and include something for everyone; Radio Telescopes, Fermilab and Issac Newton are all here (you expected them, right?) but so are entries for the Eiffel Tower, Westminster Abby, and the Escher Museum. Between the sections are fascinating entries telling about the science relative to each place; How does a Radio Telescope work? How about a tumbler lock? Self diagnosing and correcting radio transmission, solar panels (and mirror arrays) and much, much more. Things are basic enough for just about anyone to understand with just enough math (and only a little Calculus) for those of you wanting something more. There's even a "secret code" to crack.I've read a lot of books, mostly "geekie" manuals, because I like them. This book was a joy to wander my way through. I wish I had it before traveling to England a few years back and will definitely refer to it next time I plan to take a vacation and look forward to the next edition!

NOT just for Geeks!!!!
By MouseBytes Writer
from Clearwater, Florida
About Me Armchair traveler
When I first got this book and started to read it I thought immediately that it was mis-titled. So I looked to Wikipedia.org for a definition of Geek: "A person with a devotion to something in a way that places him or her outside the mainstream. This could be due to the intensity, depth, or subject of their interest. Persons have been labeled as or chosen to identify as physics geeks, mathematics geeks, engineering geeks, sci-fi geeks, computer geeks, various science geeks, movie and film geeks (cinephile), comic book geeks, theatre geeks, history geeks, music geeks, art geeks, philosophy geeks, literature geeks, historical reenactment geeks, video game geeks and roleplay geeks."More at OMG! Am I one of those? Nevertheless, if you are interested in science and/or technology then you will like this book. I know, I know.... it isn't a book about the Macintosh but I was fascinated by it.This book is so interesting and I say that "not as a Geek". It is sort of like a travel guide and just as interesting to the arm chair traveler. Basically it covers actual sites all over the world (as opposed to internet sites) for those that want to learn more about science, mathematics and technology. There are 128 of these sites in the book. More on this later.The author does a great job with his listings, having each one in its own chapter. The three parts to the chapters are:a general introduction, then a more technical detail of it and then ends with practical visiting information. In each chapter, there will be a website to get more information if there is one available.•Of course the book has 1 Infinity Loop - Cupertino, Cal. This is considered Visiting the Mothership to Apple aficionados. Bam member Kirsten Andreason and I visited Apple Computer at this location last January after Macworld in San Francisco and it was like being in a candy store for Macs. On the campus at 1 Infinity is a sign written in two Apple fonts. The 1 is in old Chicago and Infinity Loop is in Apple's version of Garamond. But why did they name it Infinity Loop? Some of you may know. The rest of you will have to read it in this book. And they go into lots of detail on this subject I might say. I never promised to tell you everything, did I?More places listed are:•Gutenberg Museum - Mainz, Germany. History of movable type and Gutenberg's invention of it around 1450. The museum also has two of the original Gutenberg Bibles.•Akihabara in Tokyo, Japan. This is the place where you will find any kind of electronics, everything related to computers and the place for phone fanatics. A lot of history to this place and quite a bit of it is explained in this chapter.•The Escher Museum - The Hague, Netherlands. I am sure you have seen some of the impossible shapes that Escher's art has shown such as the Necker Cube and the Penrose Triangle and stairs. Check it out at •Read about the invention of the slide rule by William Oughtred and what place to visit in the book.•Kennedy Space Center - Merrittt Island, Florida. One of the great places to visit for the scientific tourist. In this chapterinformation is given on Escape Velocity with formulas shown, also.•National Museum of American History - Washington, DC. Many scientific, mathematical and industrial artifacts are here. Want to learn about Bakelite, the world's first sythetic plastic? Lots of information on it here as well as formulas.•Of course the MIT Museum in Cambridge, MA has to be mentioned in this book. It is the center for robotics and artificial intelligence. So many displays here and a holography collection that can't be beat. The book explains holograms and how to create them and more.To be brief, other places in the book are: Fermilab, Batavia, Ill; National Electronics Museum, Linthicum, MD; Gateway Arch, St. Louis, MO (formula on how it was built); Trinity Test Site, White Sands Missile Range, NM; Zero G, Las Vegas, NV; NASA Glenn Research Center, Cleveland, OH (where basic science and testing of space technology is done); and the Kryptos Sculpture, Langley, VA (four encrypted messages here at this CIA spot).So why 128 places? Why not 100 or 300 or any other number? Read the chapter on the National Museum of Computing in Bletchley, England and you will learn (programmers probably have already guessed) that it is because of the Binary System. From the book "To a computer, the round binary numbers 1,10,100, 1000 and 10000 correspond to the decimal numbers 1,2,4,8, and 16. It's for that reason that computers have 4, 8, 16, or 32 gigabytes of memory (as opposed to 5, 10, 20 or 30 gigabytes). It also explaines the title of this book. The 128 in the title is a round binary number (10000000), and is meant as a signal to any computer geek seeing this book on a shelf."Bottom Line. I recommend this book for any of you that travel and are looking for some great places to visit and also those that are armchair travelers. Loads of interesting information here to read.O'Reilly Publications,[...] After reading the book, I guess I now agree with the title of it.

Number one on my favorite gifts to give list.
By Pam Raisanen
from Undisclosed
What a treasure! This book is now number one on my favorite gifts to give list. Whether used as a travel planner, an overview of important discoveries or just to curl up with on the couch for a few minutes of relaxation, this book is a delight.The Geek Atlas covers 128 places to visit that are science/math/technology related. Graham-Cumming's book focuses on sites where contributions are presented in a serious manner and skips places that portray science as fluffy entertainment based. This is both a good resource for travelers, geeks, and science buffs, as well as a great read. The chapters are an average of four pages long and packed with interesting, well organized information. They contain a description of the location, a related technical subject and visiting details. Links to associated websites are also included. Best of all, the science is explained in an easy to understand manner. We'll all be waiting impatiently for a second edition. Thank you, John Graham-Cumming!

The notion of the CIO being the "chief innovation officer" is attractive. Challenging business conditions have morphed from being a phase in the economic cycle to being the new normal. Very few organizations can conduct their business in a pre-Lehman Brothers manner, and so innovation is highly relevant to economic survival. This in turn represents an opportunity to move the CIO center stage in terms of business relevance.
Unfortunately, this move does not seem to be happening. Despite organizations making innovation a priority, the innovation budget is typically bypassing the IT function. Given that most business innovation has a new technology element, this situation suggests that the leadership does not perceive its IT function as an innovation factory. In effect, the stimulating element of the IT budget is being handed directly to the users. Thus many IT functions are left to handle the mundane domains of infrastructure and application management.

Why should people come to the Salt Lake Comedy Festival?
"Think of the Salt Lake Comedy Festival as General Conference only funnier," said Richie Steadman, festival producer and also producer of Salt Lake City's No. 1 morning show "Radio From Hell" on radio station X-96.
In its third year, the Salt Lake Comedy Festival is offering many enticements: it is officially and fully sponsored by "Radio From Hell" for the first time; has been expanded from three to five nights, and includes not only four classes for aspiring stand-up comics but also seven shows for those who just want to sit back and laugh.The events will be held next week at various locations throughout the valley, including the Midvale Theatre, Off-Broadway Theatre, Wiseguys Trolley Square and the Murray Theater.
Bob Bedore (author of the best-selling 101 Improv Games for Children and Adults), Eric R. Jensen (Off-Broadway Theatre's artistic director), Shawn Zumbrunnen (member of local band Rev Mayhem and writer for various groups and venues from the Off-Broadway Theatre to Voodoo Productions), and Keith Stubbs (comic, owner of the three Wiseguys comedy clubs and morning-show host at country station 101.5 The Eagle) will all teach classes.
Stubbs will be conducting a question-and-answer session for stand-up comics and those who are thinking about trying stand-up. "I don't teach comedy, but I'll tell you what I think," Stubbs said. "It's more of stand-up comedy 101."
Potential comics should take advantage of the chance to interact with Stubbs, the dean of local comedy, Steadman said. "Keith doesn't make himself available too often," he added.
New this year is the participation of Radio From Hell's Bill Allred, who will be the guest monologist for The Armando Diaz Experience, a long-form improvisation in which a monologist tells personal stories that provides the inspiration for the resulting scenes performed by local improvs. From Chicago, The Armando Diaz Experience was founded by Adam McKay (co-writer of "Anchorman," "Talladega Nights" and "The Other Guys," as well as co-founder of comedy website Funny or Die) , Dave Koechner ( co-star in "Anchorman," "Thank You For Smoking" and a former cast member of "Saturday Night Live") and Diaz.
In addition, some of the proceeds from the festival will be earmarked for the Huntsman Cancer Institute, Steadman said.

Updated: Senate panel aims to tighten the rules on charitable gaming
CONCORD -- As a Senate panel voted Tuesday to approve casino gambling and pass the bill onto the full Senate next week, the state's 12 licensed charitable gaming operations also got a closer look.
Games of chance generate about $75 million in wagers a year, according to the New Hampshire Racing and Charitable Gaming Commission, with charities receiving about $13 million.
Under a bill the Senate Ways and Means Committee OK'd 5-0, charitable gaming operators would be prohibited from charging charities fees for such things as rent, security and administration. Sen. Chuck Morse, R-Salem, said the legislature always intended charities to receive 35 percent of the proceeds.
"The intent was to increase the percentage going back to charities," Morse said. "No one wanted to put it in place so the vendors could get rich."
Information supplied by Paul Kelley, director of the New Hampshire Racing and Charitable Gaming Commission, indicated that charities were charged over $211,000 in rent over a 12-month period and $386,000 in total fees, which reduced the average percentage of revenue to 32.3 percent instead of the required 35 percent.
Senate Ways and Means Committee Chairman Bob Odell, R-Lempster, said some operators don't charge fees, but others do. The legislation would level the playing field, he said.
Senate Bill 75 will go before the full Senate later this month for a preliminary vote. If it passes, it will be reviewed by the Senate Finance Committee before a final vote.

Hi guys,
Just in the process of ordering my Stormrider sidearm & Fettpride holster Just wondering what colours I will need to paint the sidearm and what battle damage is done to it etc? I'm based in the UK and will most likely be wanting to use rattlecans. Some reference photos of sidearms that you know are accurate etc would be awesome. Cheers.

Discussion in '2009 Playoffs' started by max, Apr 22, 2009.
yes Ernie...u can delete this post!its Ok.
Guys we are only experiencing what others have experience throughout the years facing us. We are in a rebuiding mode and these things can be expected. We will get better, we just need to be patient and support our team. However, in saying all that we need to fire Curry as soon as possible in that he inept and over his head at this point. We need to rebuild our frontcourt and keep Stuckey, Bynum, Rip, Tay, Afflalo, Dyess, and MAYBE Kwame and Maxiell. WE WILL GET BETTER, TAKE IT ON THE CHIN FELLAS. ITS EASY TO GIVE NOW ITS TIME TO GET HIT!!!!!
Btw, I am leaning towards putting Amir in a package to get a player that could help us!!!!!
Amir could have helped us tonight.
a game 4 let it all out podshow would be nice!
I will say it one more time just cuz I got to get it off my chest. We start the game off hot and get ourselves a lead. Then the play levels off and we just keep pace. When it gets to the point when they are starting to eat into your lead; why not make a substitution. He rides his rotations to the point of diminishing returns. He just stays with them too long while the opposing coach is keeping his rotations fresh. Curry learned absolutely nothing from the 4th quarter run his bench gave him last game. Like it never happened!! He is pathetic. Please bring in Laimbeer to at least put some respect in the unis. That whole starting five would have been on the Pine to start the fourth if Beer were coaching.
IMO, he should be traded so then we can sit through another fun post CB time. Was he always that good? No he's just playing better b/c the trade made him motivated. Well we wouldn't have a championship with Amir so it's good we at least got a 2nd rounder. That 2nd rounder could turn out to be another Manu Ginnobli! edited to add; I should not have watched this game. I know better by now.
I been saying that since we were 4 and 0!
I'm not really surprised this happened, but I honestly believed they had one good game in them and I thought it would be this one. Looks like the brooms come out next. I wonder if the Palace will offer free brooms next game to any Cleveland fan buying a ticket?
Sorry but Amir cant play without periodically spending time on the bench independent of his fouling prowess. I may be ruffling a few feather here but the guy need to spend some time in the D-league. If you cannot play in a game without fouling for 5 minutes at a time you cant play in the league. He has NBA talent but not NBA intellect at this point. This can change but he needs some remedial help.
He did and dominated. You're right. He fouled excessively last game. It's a good thing we benched him. After all, a foul is worth 200 points for the other team. We would have never recovered. At least now we're losing with players that foul like Tayshaun.
After holding the Cavs to 9 pts in the 3rd qtr and ending the qtr tied at 53, the Pistons continued to jumpshoot themselves out of a possible win first allowing the Cavs to enter the paint at will score on a series of dunks & and 1 situations. Key to the game was once again at the FT line where both the Cavs and the refs were aggressive in getting them to the charity stripe. The Cavs won by 11 and once again they made more FT's than we took...(a difference of 9 pts) Pistons 10-12 and Cavs 19-30. None of our starting from court even sniffed the FT line. Kwame was the only big to get the line hitting 2-2. Even Joe Smith got to the line 7 times and to top it off hit a 3 ball for his 19 pts, that offset Mo Williams 1-11 shooting. Sheed and Dice and whomever, let Z shoot at will without even putting a hand in his face. He cooled off in the second, but there was Joe Smith taking over.. 68 points is not going to win any games in the NBA playoffs anymore.. Jump shot Rip played the whole second half I believe and did not get to the free throw line until 2:22 left in the game..
Isn't D-league eligibility limited to 2 years? The guy's making $3.7M a year.
I'm not going to debate but to me it seems as though he is not playing because that he cannot play without putting someone on the line. Amir got an incredible opportunity to start and prove to his teamates that he could contribute in a postive way. I'm sorry but you can't play without fouling every other minute then you simply cannot play. I absolutely love his talent but he does not know how to play yet. Thats why he is on the pine. Even Curry can see that and I think the guy is deplorable at this point.
I dont know all the official rules or anything but it is very apparent the guy doesnt know how to play in the league yet. Its not that he cant play he just does not know how. This is a moot point to me honestly.
He played more then 5 minutes last game and his fouling brought life to a team that was watching a lay up line. Everybody keeps talking about fouls. Do they carry over to the next game? Can you trade them in for cash or a beer? While in the heck would you want to save them?? In my opinion; if you are playing 40+ minutes a game and don't have at least four fouls; you are watching the game instead of playing. You can't spend that much time on the floor trying to play defense and not pick up fouls. If you ain't fouling; you ain't playin defense!!
Then why is he not playing? If Joe wanted him to play he would be playing. The guy cannot play yet. If he could he would be playing. Am I missing something, lmao. There is no conspiracy here folkes.
isnt there an Amir thread for this?
The first case in point for trying to get something for him while we can.
were there any bright spots??? Well Curry said there were in his presser that all of the stats were equal with the exception of the FT shooting... Then why doesn't he mention that at the beginning of the game, at halftime, third qtr..to his players.? How about our defense on their guards?? Delonte West and MO Williams were 1-18 shooting and scored 4 pts....
Separate names with a comma.

- the id macro is wrongly serialized, it misses a / before }}
I can easily write a cleaning filter that removes the anchors but it may break some links within the document. Also, it might not be possible to distinguish between anchors added by the user explicitly and anchors automatically generated by Word. Even if we don't find links inside the document that point to an anchor there might be inter-word-document links (although they are probably broken during office import).
I was at a customer yesterday. We tried importing content from Word to the wiki. The presence of the id anchor somehow provoked content to disappear from the page after the location of the macro. When copy/pasting, I think we can assume anchors are not wanted by the user.
The case of inter-word-files-links isn't really relevant, it's not a supported feature of XWiki anyway.
Please please please filter the id out

Hi, I got purple Humbrol masking fluid for masking my armor I plan to paint with rattlecans.
What is the best way: remove the masking after every completed colored layer and reapply for the new layer? Or go around the masked part where applicable for the next color. I am planning to use rafalfett's templatea. Thanks in advance guys.

(Rebroadcast Sunday @ 11 am )
GOOD LUCK GETTING SEATS TO ALL-STAR GAME: Kansas Citians are now getting excited about hosting the All-Star game this July but have you tried to get a ticket? Well you can't. There's none to be had. They've all gone. With nearly three months to go before the first pitch, neither the Royals nor Major League Baseball has any seats at Kauffman Stadium left to sell just as the tickets were about to go on sale to the general public.
KC MAYOR'S FAMILY WOES: His son has caused him embarrassment. Now his brother is making the headlines after pistol whipping another family member after a funeral. The Mayor issues a twitter message: "I'm willing 2b accountable 4 my actions. Can't control others." Are these strictly private matters? Or do they impact his public role as the city's top elected official?
JOHNSON COUNTY'S "FAUX FARMS" COSTING TAXPAYERS BIG: A front page story in the Kansas City Star reports on the growing trend in Johnson County that allows developers to classify their land as agricultural by planting a few Christmas trees or a small wheat crop as they wait for a future Starbucks, big-box retailer or a new high-price sub-division to go up. And it represents a great deal. The Star reports on how a 20-acre plot in Olathe owned by Walmart, if zoned for commercial development, would be taxed at $89,000. But last year, the retailer payed just $53 in taxes. Who's harmed by the practice and why are Kansas lawmakers so reluctant to clamp down on "faux farms?"
MISSOURI BILL CRIMINALIZES "UNFLATTERING" FARM VIDEO: The Missouri House greenlights legislation this week that would make it a crime to produce videos portraying poor conditions at agricultural facilities in the state. The proposed "Ag-Gag Law" creates the new crime of Agricultural Production Facility Interference, making it illegal to produce or distribute video occurring on a farm without the consent of the owner. Violators could be subject to six months to four years in prison. Supporters say the measure is needed to stop activists producing propaganda against agriculture. Opponents of the bill said some of those undercover investigations have helped improve conditions at agricultural facilities.

Thanks for watching Kansas City Week in Review.
The reviewers are missing the point of the "Ag-Gag Law"…those of us in Agriculture have no problem with the true stories about our operations being published. HOWEVER, most of the films released portraying poor treatment of livestock and other undesirable practices are almost exclusively staged…organizations like PETA and HSUS and their members who promote them have (in general) very little understanding of agricultural practices – the how and why – and assume that everything they see is maltreatment and abuse.
Get to know a farmer or rancher and you will learn that they are the greatest stewards of the land and the greatest humanitarians of livestock. After this, journalists, tell the true story, and you will be given the green light every time. In the grand scheme it's also protecting YOU, the journalist, from libel or slander by confirming that you have the true story about agriculture.

|One of my favorite things to do with users or potential users of WebSphere CloudBurst is to help them understand how they can construct a custom environment using the appliance. Typically, we take one of their existing application environments and discuss the configuration steps that contribute to its makeup. From there, we map the required configuration actions to different customization capabilities in the appliance. It is one thing to talk about how you can customize every layer of your application stack with WebSphere CloudBurst, it is quite another to talk about it in the context of an existing environment. This exercise usually serves to greatly enhance a user's understanding of how to construct tailored environments with the appliance.
While I cannot take every one of you through this exercise in the context of one of your own application environments, I can propose a scenario that will help to illustrate the WebSphere CloudBurst customization process. Consider that I want to deploy a clustered WebSphere Application Server environment whose application server instances utilize WebSphere DataPower XC10 for HTTP session management. In order to deploy such an environment, I would need to do the following:
|So those are the steps, but how do they map to WebSphere CloudBurst? First, I know that the WebSphere Application Server Hypervisor Edition image used by WebSphere CloudBurst encapsulates the installation of the OS and WAS. I also know that WebSphere CloudBurst will automatically construct the clustered cell during the deployment process. That means I need to address the installation of client binaries, augmentation of profiles, and configuration of application server instances. In order to do this, I will use a combination of image extension and custom script packages.
|To get started, I extend an existing WebSphere Application Server Hypervisor Edition image and simply install the WebSphere eXtreme Scale Client binaries. I then capture that image and store it as my own unique image in the WebSphere CloudBurst catalog. Now, you may wonder why I did not capture the profile augmentation in the custom image. Remember, you cannot change profile configuration during the extend and capture process as WebSphere CloudBurst resets the profiles as part of capturing the custom image.
|My custom image encapsulates the installation of the client binaries, so now I turn to custom script packages. I need two in this case. One script package will augment a profile (either deployment manager or custom node) with the WebSphere eXtreme Scale profile template. The second script package will configure application server instances to use WebSphere DataPower XC10 for HTTP session management. Once done with these script packages, I have all the assets I need to build my target environment.
|Using my custom image, I build a pattern that contains the number and kind of WebSphere Application Server nodes that I want. I use the advanced options to define a WebSphere Application Server cluster ensuring its creation happens during deployment. Next, I drag and drop the profile augmentation script onto the deployment manager and custom node parts in my pattern. Finally, I drag and drop the WebSphere DataPower XC10 configuration script onto the deployment manager. The pattern is now ready to deploy!
|For those of you that are visual learners like me, this demonstration provides a nice overview of exactly what I wrote about above. Check it out and let me know what you think.

Re: a simple question of weight ratios
I'm afraid someone's going to mistake it for a bowling ball and I'm going to have to hurt them.
Re: obviously youre dense
Hahaha! so cool! I love it!
Re: Gravity Well
This is quite clever. I really like how you pulled this off.
Honestly I think it looks more like a bowling ball, but good reference.

With the one in the reckoning I feel a OOOO~ CUTE KAWAAIII feel.
With this I feel, HECK YES! RETRO ATOMS.
I see the SIMILARITY, but I don't think they're SIMILAR enough for this to get rejected.
My opinion anyway.
Yeah. I think that to say this is a ripoff of Ramy's theft of deviant art printed in shirt form (http://shirt.woot.com/Forums/ViewPost.aspx?PostID=4053486) is unfair. It's a significantly different design. Designers on woot throw smiles on everything.
Cool concept. I'm not really too nuts on the edges though.

Good job, Jasneko!
I'm sure yours would have been neat! So glad people are liking the expression. Thanks spilzer!!

Glad you like the idea. Hmm maybe watching these videos will help get you in the right frame of mind to look at it;) one more.

Thanks jel2301!
Re: Its A Rabbit!
This is biology, not physics
Definitely a good wearable shirt.
That's pretty cool.
Re: The Physics of Crossing the Road
Thanks for the comments guys. I have about a thousand ideas for this derby and a new computer that actually completes simple operations in seconds rather than minutes like my old machine. I had a lot of fun doing this one, and with no headaches to show for it.
Very happy you went with the kelly green :D. It looks excellent! +1

Before you start putting words in other people's mouths, you should probably read. I made it clear that I was not accusing the designer of ripping anyone off at all. I just think that this is poorly timed and that it is too similar to a shirt that is also currently being sold. Read this before you respond this time.
Re: The Black Hole
The black hole looks like another planet.
Re: Defying Gravity - Prehistoric
What color shirt do you want to use? If it is asphalt, like the background, the shirt template needs to show that. (Right now it looks lighter than that.) If it is heather gray, you need to use the special heather template and change your thumbnail.
capedcrusader514 wrote:Definitely diid this just for this derby. This is the exact setup as the problem the "monkey" has fallen from the tree and been shot. The rest is implied. Almost all the other entries in the derby have some sort of implied element as we can't have equations or txt.
Actually, in the physics problem, it's as it's falling, in midair.

No reason to be snarky about it. i just said it was unfair to say they were all that similar. They're fundamentally different designs.
Love the final design! GMV

mjc613 wrote:This is biology, not physics
It's barely even a design. It's a pasted in photograph.
It does look a lot like a bowling ball, but I guess that's just because coconuts resemble bowling balls.
I don't care, this one better print.

Here's wikipedia's explanation of the twin paradox:

Very good, but I'm assuming the monkey landed at some point...

Practical physics for lawmen (and women). Not preferable, but handy when you don't have a clear shot. ^__^
Here's a detail:
Thanks for looking! This shirt is six colors on brown. You can see a BIG VERSION here. Please vote if you like this design.
i'd wear it
Re: Escaping gravity
This is Great - love the shading & halftones
Re: Gravity is FUN! But also hurts ):
Like the skydiver, hate the clouds. Sorry.
Re: The Force of Attraction
And another awesome Walmazan! GMV
Love how much the fridge "loves" that the magnet is coming her way! LMAO
Yeah you see a bunny is the younger version of a rabbit, just like child is the younger version of person. As this is an adult rabbit, it is therefore not a bunny. : P
I can dig it. +1
Great design. I look forward to seeing some of your other stuff. GMV. : )
capedcrusader514 wrote:Very good, but I'm assuming the monkey landed at some point...
From our good friend Wikipedia: "In essence, the problem is as follows: A hunter with a blowgun goes out in the woods to hunt for monkeys and sees one hanging in a tree, at the same level as the hunter's head. The monkey, we suppose, releases its grip the instant the hunter fires his blowgun. Where should the hunter aim and when should he fire in order to hit the monkey?"
Yes, of course the monkey hits the ground eventually. But at that point, we are no longer talking about the physics problem, we're talking about a dead monkey going splat. I'm currently in school for Aerospace Engineering, and nothing about your design makes me think of the classic thought experiment. The "hunter" doesn't have a gun, so he just seems like a slackjawed old dude in stereotypical safari gear who walked up on a gorilla (which is not a monkey, by the way) who happens to have a random dark sticking out of it. NOTHING about this embodies the idea of taking a shot at a monkey the instant that it lets go of the tree, which is what the problem is about. Nothing about it seems to embody physics at all, which is what the theme is about. Maybe it embodies awe and horror, but not physics.
This may not end well... but it's good to see him try a better way. Armadillo is the saddest of all the roadkill.
Brilliant design! GMV. ^_^
Loooove it. You always make my Friday, walmazan. ^__^
Nice! Great coloring, especially.
This one made me LOL! Funny idea.
Re: COWABUNGA
Nice! The coloring is very original but summery at the same time, and I wouldn't have thought to go with a dark shirt but it totally suits it.
+1 :^)
Great job as usual! I love the way you draw.
Simple, funny, original. Awesome job, jasneko.
Based on my own past experiments, this pose would last approximately 37 microseconds before the balloon was either burst or dislodged by running around. :^)
Re: Gravity
It sure is! Minimalist and really good, fabiofranca.

Alas, Poor Yorick
Today's New York Times contains an disappointing article about the current widespread use of skulls in fashion. Although the paper is right to note the trend, one Izzy touched upon a while back, it fails to give any recent history of the death's head as decoration, including its use on Nazi S.S. uniforms or its place in the iconography of heavy metal, something the British shoemaker Jeffery West tries to market. The article claims that the skull has largely lost its edge as a symbol, but Izzy thinks its connotations depend upon the sex of the wearer. It's one thing for a woman to borrow style cues from pirates or Hell's Angels; she is clearly playing dress-up. But when a man does the same, he is liable to come across as threatening or uncivil, far from a good thing in Izzy's estimation. As for me, I'll stick with more traditional cufflinks from Alfred Dunhill.)

John-Hosono/Vetyeka-Yordan: Full Report & Gallery
Report and photos by Jeffrey Pamungkas
Both WBA featherweight super champion Chris John and his challenger Satoshi Hosono expressed their disappointment after their bout, which ended as a technical draw in round three following headbutts that created severe cuts on John's temple and forehead on Sunday at the Indoor Tennis Stadium in Jakarta, Indonesia. Referee Rafael Ramos waved his hands to stop the fight on the advice of the ring doctor after he examined John's wounds in the neutral corner for the second time.
The fight itself was very intense since the beginning when Hosono threw power shots to the body, and John decided to come forward and trade punches with Hosono, the first Japanese boxer coming to Indonesia for a world title belt.
"I'm very disappointed with this result, as I've prepared for months," said John, whose undefeated record became 48-0-3 with 22 KOs.
Separately, Hosono in the dressing room was also disappointed. "His cut is in the forehead, and it should not disturb his vision. I landed good body shots, and I had a good chance to win the fight," Hosono (23-2, 17 KOs) stated very sadly.
In the co-feature bout, South Africa's Simpiwe Vetyeka (24-2, 14 KOs) surprised the crowd with a TKO victory over the country's second hero, Daud Cino Yordan (30-3, 23 KOs) in the last round of twelve. Yordan was aggressive, but Vetyeka was slicker and made Yordan's attacks ineffective. Yordan was going for KO in the last round, but he was exhausted, and a counter punch from the challenger dropped him to the canvas. Yordan got up, but Vetyeka battered him to the ropes, promting referee Tim Austin to quickly stop the fight and declare the new IBO featherweight champion Simpiwe Vetyaka.
"We'll evaluate, and we'll decide what's the next steps later," said Damianus Yordan, the brother/trainer of the dismantled champion.
Vetyeka, after the match commented that he found Yordan's weaknesses during the fight, and he could utilize those weaknesses to lead his victory. During the pre-fight press conference, Vetyeka's trainer Nick Durandt said that after Vetyeka defeated Yordan, he would come again to Jakarta to defeat Chris John. Will it happen?
Angelo Hyder of Dragon Fire Promotions said that at this moment he couldn't confirm anything concerning rematches of both world title fights which ended in disappointing fashion for Indonesians. Hyder explained that there were several options, and it should be discussed with concerned parties before it comes to any decisions. Dragon Fire Promotions is an Australian-based boxing promotional company who has a vision to establish boxing as business in the Asia region, including in Singapore, Indonesia, Australia, and other countries.
Undercard: Indonesia vs Tanzania results, all bouts scheduled for six rounds:
Featherweight: Rasmanudin WKO 1 Jay Jay Ngotiko

Hello, sir. I am not a strong fan of the polymer-frame pistols, but have owned a few Glocks and an XD9.
All of them worked fine and met expectations.
The only "plastic pistols" I currently own are a G17 and 26. Both function flawlessly and I'd trust either for "serious purposes" if required.
I don't see it as an either/or situation and enjoy both the polymer guns as well as the more traditional ones.
Speaking only for myself, the newer "plastic fantastic" pistols are not quite so enticing esthetically, but I absolutely respect their functionality.
