Just an example of how we are all different from each other beacuse I like this one WAAAAAy better Jenny. But that's what make the world go around.
Re: It's Ours Now
Very nice James! I think it is perfect.
Come on give me at least one vote. I'm a newbie here and, my design is not that bad. Maybe people don't get it.
It is a statement on the greed of the world in respect to the third world countries. The T-bone steak represents well-fed people in the world in developed nations. The shadow of the steak is in the shape of Africa sprinkled with rice, representing the poor diet afforded to the third world countries because of the developed world's greeed and lack of compassion.

All i see is a little blur on the earth (i'm not sure that's going to fix the too much detail they were referring to... but hopefully it will) and the overlapping of the ear and tail making it look like he has two of each .....which i assume is not on the print ready.
Ahh no the those things aren't on the print ready, I'm not sure why its on this picture.
And as for the rejection, I didn't send in a print ready file last time, they must of based it on the t-shirt image alone. They had no way of checking if it was complicated or not. This time I did send one in, hopefully it will help.

really clever and cute! and Im a toatal sucker for a brown shirt... GMV! I would wear this to man around anywhere!

i like simple shirts too
maybe put a $ in his hand or above the arrow
to emphasize the greed. but i still like it.

yeah i usually like these type shirts but i think that people seeing it would get the wrong message, like America is made of gold, or IDK, America is a land of Gold. But we really don't put our trust in Gold anymore, should be credit cards. I don't like it.

Wow, I read the thread all the way through and boy was that a long and hectic ride. In the end, it got rejected surprise surprise, copyrighted images and distinct rulebreaking just don't have a place in woot
Re: MINE!
Hey everyone, thanks for the support and comments. I'm out of town until Sunday night, so best of luck to everyone!
And to answer a question above, no it's not based on any King in particular, but I did have a painting of Henry the VIII up when I was drawing it, so there may be a little influence there.
Re: Dragon's Gold
Great work!
freakin awesome! Bravo!
Re: Dude, look what I found (Resub)
I love how short the people are, it makes them more humorous xD.
Re: Gimmie!!!
This shirt design is dedicated to anyone who has ever made the error of eating cashews alone in the Park, we know the pain of the Chipmonk Mafia

Five proactive ways to bring the spark back I your marriage provided by the Lake Mary marriage counselors at Total Life Counseling.
Five Marriage Counselor Tips to Stay Married
1. Set up a weekly date night. Do something fun just the 2 of you weekly.
2. Set limits with the children and careers.
3. Give each other time to be alone and enjoy themselves separately from you.
4. Make the times you have together special and intimate.
5. Disagree without hurting each other.
Our Marriage Therapists are available at Total Life Counseling in Orlando, Winter Park, East Orlando, Lake Mary and Clermont, Florida offering Marriage Counseling and Pre-Marital Counseling. Our Clermont, Lake Mary Winter Park marriage counselors and therapists are committed to helping you.
Do you want to know how you can rekindle the romance and bring that spark back into your marriage? Below are five proactive ways to stay married:
Five Marriage Counselor Tips to Stay Married
Reclaim your date night.
Remember staying up all night talking on the phone, or sitting outside in your spouse's car – just to hear his/her voice a little longer? Did you used to play cards or take the Jet Ski's out on Saturdays? Don't give up your date night, just because you have children or because all the bills are due. It is a NECESSITY to learn to play together again. At least once a month, set an appointment to have a date together. Do something you enjoyed before getting married, try something new, and go out to dinner without the kids. And call it a date. Get dressed up or dressed down, whatever fits your personality. The good thing about dates: they don't have to be costly. Just something fun, something energetic, just the two of you.
Boundaries with the Children and Careers.
Though the economy is not looking great, don't go into panic mode chasing the almighty dollar. Your spouse needs your time and attention. Though the children need enriching activities and have important sporting events, they need to see their parents love each other more. Set a limit on how many hours you will work this week. Put the children to bed at an earlier time or enforce quiet time in their rooms after a specific hour. Make sure you have at least 30 minutes of quality time together so you can listen and empathize with your marriage partner's day. Also, share things with your husband because, he is not a mind reader like the romance novels would lead you to believe. There is a reason why they call those books "Fiction." Getting to know each other doesn't stop at "I do".
Allow Each Other To Have Some Space.
It isn't a bad thing to have individual interests. If he wants to play golf, she can spend the time catching up on some shopping with the girls. Make sure to practice appropriate boundaries by sharing your individual interests with the same sex (men go out with male friends; women go out with female friends). Don't be surprised if you both start to appreciate having new things to share with each other. The old cliché "Absence makes the heart grow fonder" may ring true after you have shared a day apart from one another.
Spice Up the Intimate Moments.
Have fun giving each other kisses or long embraces, and listen to your kids say, "Ewww, gross!" Send the children to grandma's or allow them to spend the night with a trusted friend, so you can rekindle the romance in your home. Try new positions, take a bath together, get out the soft music and scented candles. Men, if you prepare your wives, I can almost guarantee she'll return the favor before the night is over.
Fight fair.
This can be much more difficult than it sounds. Expect to have disagreements or to get angry at each other when things do not go as planned. But do NOT call each other hurtful names, do NOT say "I don't love you or I'm going to leave", and do NOT fight in front of the children if possible. Before you embrace an argument, think about whether or not it is worth the energy. Does it really matter if it was you or him that forgot to turn out the lights or should you save your energy for discussing something that is important like not forgetting to pick up Jane from school again? Remember to pick your battles. Life will go on if the electric bill goes up a few dollars, but will be detrimental if you neglect your parental responsibilities.
Take steps today to improve the state of your marriage. If you want to be proactive and have a marital tune up or if you are struggling in your marriage give us a call at Total Life Counseling. It would be our pleasure to come along side you to improve your marriage!!

I've been seriously considering a Zuckuss costume (since I'm already a bigger guy, I won't need any padding to look right ), but I'm completely stumped on the helmet. I've tried Ebay for the past half a year, but kept coming up empty. Also talked to one of the guys at Polymer Armory, since they had one on their website. They said they were considering making copies for sale, but I haven't heard anything back from them either. I know there weren't any made commercially available, so that's a dead end as well.
I haven't started anything else on this costume, because if I can't get a hold of the mask, there's no point. And there's no way I'd be able to sculpt that thing with my lack of talent.
Does anyone have any leads on this? I've visited the Phoenix Squadron forums, but I think I have to be 501st to post on there.

He's been there
Triple-amputee contractor building for boy with similar disabilities
July 25. 2013 8:43PM
Amputee-contractor Eric Duchesne wields a circular saw Thursday at a Hillhaven Road home in Manchester. (MARK HAYWARD / UNION LEADER.)
Like Duchesne, Carter has only one hand to grab an object. Like Duchesne, he can only use his other arm to brace or prop an object, whether a toy or piece of lumber. And like Duchesne, Carter's sneaker attaches to a leg-like, high-tech rod.
"He's a walking, talking, breathing role model for Carter," said Carter's father, Mike Mead. "He's a hands — a hand-on — kind of guy."
He lost portions of his right arm and both legs.
Duchesne said he worked a few years at a white collar job. But he yearned to work outside, so in 2001 he started Decks-N-More. At times, business was so good that he kept three crews busy, he said. Now he just works with a single crew.
At another point, he trusts his prosthetics enough to brace himself while using his entire body's weight to nudge a vertical post into alignment.
Duchesne said the leg prosthetics, supplied by Next Step Bionics and Prosthetics of Manchester, make it easy to work. His right prosthetic is bionic, with a computer-controlled knee that locks, releases and pivots based on the experience of the user.
"For us, it's not just a deck," Kelliann said, "it's a life experience for Carter."

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Yes teach the kids hide and seek! Our dog loves it! Give the kids a treat to hold on to and have them hide one at a time. We say "come find me!" And Samson is on the hunt! As soon as he finds one of us, his eyes light right up and then he gets a treat. While he is gobbling up his treat, one of the other kids go hide. So fun for kids and dog and wears our pup out!
You've got a good grip on the situation. Before I had my own children, the neighbor kids would come over to play with Luther. The only trouble I ever had was him knocking over the smaller kids. I would supervise and give one warning that they were getting the dog too ramped up. 'Don't do that or you'll have to go home' Home was "boring" and it only took a couple times actually sending them home. Even human boys respond to corrections LOL.
Now, I only let my own children play with the dogs. If they have a friend over, I keep the dogs with me. Venus is too exuberant and Otto is too protective. My daughter's friends are too shrieky and Otto knows how little boys can be mean to little girls. He doesn't like it when any boys other than mine play with his Jackie. So I just don't allow it.
There are some great suggestions here, please keep them coming.
We've met the parents and they've met Luke. They know that the kids are at our house playing with Luke. They don't seem to have any objection with the boys getting out and getting some exercise and we don't mind entertaining them.
The kids are all boys, the oldest will give Luke basic commands and Luke listens to him well - sit, lay down, drop it, stay, spin and high-five. The middle aged boy can get a little hyper at times. Him and the oldest can feed off of each other's energy and get Luke excited with them too which we'd like to avoid. The youngest prefers to keep his distance from Luke and is kind of along for the ride. He actually prefers playing with our cat, although he will throw the ball (the best he can) for Luke on occasion. We're always mindful to stick close to Luke and the boys, especially with the youngest since Luke is larger than him.
Luke is very gentle-mannered with a low prey drive. The few times he's started to go after rabbits in our yard we've told him sternly to "leave it" and he listens immediately. Our concern is the built up energy from the two oldest boys and a loss of focus on Luke's part that could end up with a nipped finger or Luke knocking the little one over.
With summer coming soon we have a pretty good idea that we'll be seeing more of them and would like to be as prepared as possible for their interactions with Luke. So please, keep the suggestions coming!
My experience is ..with younger GSDs still learning the ropes...they can get a bit overzealous when stimulated in certain ways and control is a bit more difficult because command hasn't outweighed the "playful" exuberance of the dog/pup.
15 months should be getting close in my opinion where a dog should know how to play "nice"....especially if it is so directed by owner/handler.
However, a few spirited lads playing into the paws of a young energetic dog is almost guaranteed to have some "snappy" moments to it..most always unintended but yet still bold on the dog's behalf. I'd use it as you probably have... a good environment for training.....and all involved are aware of what's taking place....plus...kids are durable,
|Here's a suggestion after all the running around playing. To calm everyone down, put the dog in a down stay, the kids sit next to him and each take turns (maybe not the 4yo) reading to the dog. Sounds kind of corny, but you'll be amazed at what happens. The dog gets attention from the kids and the kids gain confidence in their reading skills. It's really a great activity for all.
I'll share my experiences I hope that you don't have to experience them. Gunnar was raised with my 3 kids ages 5,10,11. They all got bit whe he was a little pup and have learned to be relaxed around him. I've taken him to kids events since he came home with me, so he's been around a lot of kids.
My best friends daughter is a small 6 year old girl. She loves animals. She's been raised near dogs, but none in her house. She was playing with Gunnar, throwing ball, and sticks and such. Gunnar nipped her finger playing tug with a stick. The girl screamed and Gunnar shifted from play to prey drive. Girl got scared and screamed more, he jumped up on her and at that point I got there to intervene. That took place over the course of 5 seconds while I was watching from 15 feet away. Be aware of your dogs particular issues and warn the kids.
I had Gunnar at a young kids soccer game. Afterwards half the team of 6 years olds came over and were petting him, hugging him, loving on him. Gunnar was eating it up, started kissing the kids, but as he got more hyped up the kisses got a little wild and one kid got their nose grazed by teeth during the kisses. Gunnar was not being malicious, but there are big teeth in that mouth. It could have gone badly.
I now keep him on a short lead when there are lots of kids around. To protect him from them, and their parents. He's a sweet dog with a big heart and lots of energy. But he's still got a puppy mind.
|I have 6 dogs and they are all awesome with kids of all ages(both the GSD's will spend all day with the kids and love every minute of it)I consider myself lucky. The kids play catch with the dogs, they do play keep away with no issues( my dogs don't try to take the toy away but will give chase, but my dogs prefer the kids chase them) The dogs can spend all day having the kids chase them and the kids never catch the dogs. The kids do training sessions with the dogs. They play hide and seek or find it. I also have them just relax with the dogs. The dogs lay down and the kids sit next to the dogs and just pet them. We have also done bonfires with all of them and the dogs lay near by and the kids watch the fire.
What a great thread...It seems like you're past this stage because the kids are already playing with your pup.
I can't trust my pups around kids. But I've learned that if a kid wants to pet the dog, I have the kid approach the dog from the dog's side. And I stand on the other so that if my dog was to try and jump on the kid, I can control the situation...
A safe (IMO) game that might prevent accidental nipping or over-excitement is having the kids hide a doggie toy and then asking the pup to 'find it'.
Just a general observation...the kids your dog sees all the time he would consider as part of his pack. If he knows how to behave around "kids" that is good but it doesn't automatically translate to "friends" of kids!
My Boxer, I could trust to be safe with anyone...my GSD?? Yeah not so much!
The thought of my dog and kids scares me, but I know there are some good dogs out there.
Here's what I observed in general: a dog gets eager to chase or grab the toy, the kid gets panicky then the child holds the toy above it's head, forgetting the dog can jump and the child gets knocked over. So advised the kids to be careful of that. Also heard from a friend that grew up with a GSD and a couple stories here is when the kids start running, the dog may try to herd them, sometimes there are nips. Even if I had a good dog, the four year old seems too risky, maybe too immature and can't remember rules, may act unpredictably and even if just standing there, your dog probably weighs more than the child so it could get knocked down and hurt by accident. Remember open hand/palm for treats, and have a time limit so your dog and kids do not get over excited. Maybe for now just some throwing/fetch games and see they the kids would like to practice dog training if your dog knows sit, stay, come, etc.
I loved neighbors like you when I was a child! My neighbor had a beautiful Collie just like Lassie that I was so happy just to sit next to. Our dog was a bit mean and I did not enjoy playing with it.

Story and photographs by Tosh BrownBluefish invade the Northeast each spring without fanfare. They're not tracked on message boards or rumor-milled in fly shops, like stripers. Bass freaks arrange their lives around the migration, but few people budget vacation time, rise at 4:00 AM and drive three hours just to check their favorite spots for bluefish. Stripers get top billing from Maine to the Chesapeake, and their likenesses are painted on fly shops, stitched on hats and etched on reels. When the bass are in town bluefish are considered a scourge. They're the punks that shred flies and cut leaders, and befoul boat decks with slime and bitten-in-half baitfish.
"Freakin' bluefish!"
"Fly-stealing bastards!"
And then the bass move on, the summer days lengthen and the detractors change their tune.
"The bluefish were insane today!"
"Caught six over 10 pounds!"East Coast anglers and bluefish have a bipolar relationship. Here's a pelagic species that'll eat any fly in your box and punish a weak drag system. He's a forked-tailed goon who prefers his meals at the surface and often jumps when hooked. He roams in packs, isn't at all spooky, and makes beginning fly casters feel really good about themselves.
Granted, bluefish probably aren't best served under candles with wine to someone you'd like to impress. They're better brined and cooked with copious wood smoke and shared among those who drink beer and yell at the TV.My most memorable encounter with bluefish happened off Nantucket in the dead of summer, 2010. Capt. Shawn Bristow idled in circles on a glassy, calm ocean until he found the spot on his GPS where he knew that a standing wave would build on the tide change.
"There's a sandbar here," Bristow explained, "and when the current starts moving and the squid get washed over the bar, this place goes crazy."
After two hours of bulldogging with massive bluefish that surfed and snapped down the face of the wave, the tide fell slack and the remaining chunks of a squid massacre drifted into the depths.
On the way back to the harbor, Bristow talked about the timing of the migrations and how the big stripers tend to move in and out of Nantucket waters. "The big bass hang around Martha's Vineyard for most of the summer, but not here; they swing by Nantucket in the spring, and then again in the fall. The bluefish get here early and stay all summer through the peak of our tourist season."
At that point I thought back to a conversation with Boston's noted fly tier and photographer, Dave Skok. "I love bluefish," Skok had said. Then he added, seeming a bit perplexed, "Why would anyone in the Northeast hate on one of the four nearshore species that are available to them?"
And Skok is right. Bluefish are hyper-aggressive eating machines and a blast to catch on a fly rod. They'll tear up our gear and give us the finger whether we like them or not. So keep a few wire leaders ready and embrace the inevitable; I can think of much worse ways to spend a day.

If your puppy is getting his first shot at 7.5 weeks of age, then you can do the remainders at 11 and 14 weeks. I do add another dose for mine at 17 weeks because I rescue and foster as well as show my dogs, so they have more exposure. Then I do the rabies at 20 weeks of age. I also only give the five in one, not the six, seven or eight in one puppy shots.
Depending upon where you board or train your dog, you might need to add a vaccine for kennel cough. This now comes in three forms - oral, intranasal and injectable.
I have to chime in on this one, because in 1992 Yogi Bear2 got Parvo Virus. It was terrible. Beet red smelly loose stools and no energy.
It all numbers and percentages. I took Isabella out on walks at 6 weeks and at 8 weeks she had a choke collar. She was never allowed to sniff other animals, I told the dog owner's to stand clear, in a firm voice, but I would never keep the dog home for an additional 8 weeks, from 8 weeks to 16 weeks. The dog needs to explore at a young age, gardeners, car sounds, dogs barking, people speaking, ALL outside sounds..
We use to give; Killed Vaccines at 6 weeks and only Parvo, never a first shot (7 & 1) but that was 28 years ago, things have changed.
Dog's did not cost $2000.00 in 1987 either, they were $300.00 and up.
If your dog is going to get sick, there's nothing you can do about it, prevent exposure by informing crossing pet owner's; MY PUP HAS NOT HAD ALL HIS OR HER SHOTS, SO VAMOOSE !!
Enjoy it, nobody has told you your not going to have a heart attack and die today so, knowing the dog's outcome is the same. Enjoy every breath !!!

|Cara Fusinato
My pup was vaccinated too early at 6 weeks by the breeder. The final shots should land at or after 16 weeks. To make the most of a not-optimum situation, I took the number of days from shot set 1 to 16 weeks & divided by 3. That's 24 days each. Shots need to be re-done between 3-4 weeks so my every 24 days should be OK though having a set of 4 puppy shots is not the best idea but it is workable. The rabies shot is a week later at 17 weeks so as to separate them. My pup has not been anywhere but our back dog area and our deck, but I have had guests come to socialize him here after removing shoes and disinfecting hands. I know that those areas have not had any parvo. We have lived here 8 years and build up the dog area ourselves from a hillside and replaced the deck we had with the current one. The areas are fenced from canines (dog, coyote, foxes, etc).
DO NOT walk your puppy around until after the shots. If you do, you are seriously courting danger. You can carry the dog to some dog-friendly locations like Home Depot, but do not touch the ground. Do not go anywhere other dogs have been. Choose a potty location and spray it with some dilute bleach solution now and again weekly. It's some help but not total disinfecting 100%. Better than nothing though.
Take parvo seriously -- distemper also. Not worth the risk.
|Made the vet appointment for Aug 1. They said (knock on wood) that there haven't been any cases yet this year, but that we shouldn't really take him anywhere until after his Aug 1 booster. We'll be going up in elevation, and will avoid the popular trails until he has all his shots. Still nervous about it, though!
I did what you are planning to do. I talked to my vet who said that parvo is just not that prevalent up here and that it was more important to socialize. He did say not to drop in elevation and to not go to dog parks until the pup was fully vaccinated.
Have fun!
|I wouldn't go anymore other dogs go for a while. Even with the shots a dog can still get parvo, it's more unlikely, but it happens.
That's a good idea - we get him on Friday the 25th or Sat the 26th (whichever day we can drive out - 3 hrs each way) - and I was going to make an appointment for Monday the 29th.
We don't have a fenced yard. Our dog doesn't go out unsupervised and gets her exercise on the local hiking trails (lots of them in the area), and we were planning to do the same with puppy. That and just letting them roam the neighbourhood for socialization. Lol! JUST KIDDING!
I'll have to ask the vet about how prevalent parvo is in the area. There are a lot of lax dog owners here, so probably a lot of unvaccinated dogs. On my last visit I was asking a bit about puppy shots and he did mention 2 dogs who had gotten it. They had moved into a new rental where the previous tenant's dog had it, and they got it from that. I haven't really heard about any other cases though.

|Sometimes it's hard to tell if it's a small percentage. Sometimes it's just visible in the way they move. My first GSD in 1988 was not PB. He was 3/4 GSD and 1/4 timber wolf. Positively. Yet he was the smartest and most gentle dog I've ever known. As well as very protective. Here's a pic of Judaea, probably about 4 or 5 yrs. His ears were up, but at about 6 months he developed a very severe crippling case of pano, followed by an auto immune disorder, it attacked his jaws -he couldn't hardly open his mouth. His ears went down, and never came up again. I didn't tape them, thought the look matched his personality.

He might be a very large GSD but he still realllly looks 100% GSD & shows no physical evidence of wolf ancestry. My Sibe actually looked 'more wolf' & he really didn't look like a wolf at all for those that knew what to look for.
One problem I've seen is so many Sibes & Malemutes are identified as 'wolf crosses' & even <major*eyeroll> 'high percentage wolf crosses' that many people don't have a good idea of what the real deal looks like. They also use a lot of Malemutes in movies about wolves & wolf dogs which further confuses people as to what they're truly seeing.
|Bpink5, I don't see any wolf either. But what are you needing in the way of help with this GSD? If there is any wolf, it would be a small amount. My purebred GSD is over 100 lbs too, and since he is sable, looks more wolfy.

As surely the original GSD had wolf in him all GSD have wolf in them. I don't think you asked how much did you?
So, yes he is part wolf. Every GSD is part wolf.
If you can completely change the sub-species of a fox in 30 years, can you really say ALL german shepherds are "part wolf" because of 4 in the ancestry I'm guessing roughly 120 years ago? How many generations that would be I would be guessing at least 30-40 + generations for most dogs now? I do not think you can say german shepherds are "part wolf". Selective breeding has eliminated that.

I base this on what I see in the photo--the size and set of his ears, the size of his canine teeth, the shape of his muzzle, what I call the "German shepherd bump" on his nose, the shape and color of his eyes, the size and shape of his feet...I am sure that if you posted a side photo of him standing, we could address other conformation evidence. Enjoy your dog for what he is!

This will probably make some of you think I was a fool, but... I had a huge male wolf shepherd I raised from a 4-week old big ball of fluff. When I first got him he slept in the crook between my head and my shoulder, until he grew too big. THIS guy was my "heart dog," and all his life I was not only his alpha, but I think he looked to me as his mother. He was extremely affectionate, and here is how he showed it, very often. If I was sitting in a chair, he would put his front feet up on the chair so he could reach me. Then he would take my neck gently in his jaws, huge canines and all. I knew it was affection (or he was hoping I would regurgitate some food, LOL), and I always had perfect trust in him (as he did in me) although he could easily have crushed my neck.
He was also mischievous as heck. I decided to train him to bring foreign objects to me, and I would trade it for a treat, so that I could always get something away from him if it might harm him. In a hot minute that turned into him searching for all sorts of things, bringing them to me and prancing in front of me as if to say, "Look what I have, I think you should make a trade for this!" Once while we were gone (before I had learned the advantages of crates) he went into the bathroom, took the toilet paper end in his mouth, pulled it, still connected to the roll, down the hall into the kitchen, into the diningroom, into the livingroom and nearly full circle back into the hallway by the bathroom door. I would like to have seen him do it--I never could figure out how he held it in his mouth without breaking it--it was still connected to the roll when we got home!
Boy--he died in 1992, and I still miss him as though he were a part of my human family.

I'm a volunteer down there and have not really had anything to do directly with the wolves. I'm helping with a batch of GS puppies and a dog from a different hording situation. In fact Caesar had the pen the wolfies are now in. As he has gotten more social he has been moved up to the front where he gets more people and dog interaction. I've got a picture of him that will give you a better idea of how big the pen area is.

The rest of his life he would now and then stop what he was doing, come over to me and lay his head on my chest. I knew it was still appreciation for the home we gave him. They are so expressive.
These two look like they could possibly be mixed with Malamute and would be more independent than the wolf shepherd cross. I'm sure they are bonded. Are you looking to place them somewhere, or will the rescue keep them? I hope they are in a temporary enclosure, they need more space, like a compound if they are not going to be with a human pack.

Barnes Accepts Head Coach Position at Youngstown State
By Justin Grones (@JustinGrones)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – Green Bay women's basketball associate head coach John Barnes has been hired as the head coach at Youngstown State. Barnes becomes the seventh head coach of a Penguins' program that finished second in the Horizon League last season before advancing to the second round of the 2013 WNIT Tournament.
"I'm extremely excited about my new opportunity at Youngstown State and I'm grateful to take this next step in my life and get back to being a head coach," Barnes said. "I have to thank Ken Bothof and Kevin Borseth for allowing me to be a part of this incredible program this year and for all the things they've taught me along the way."
Barnes, a four-year basketball player and 1995 graduate of Michigan Tech University started his coaching career at his alma mater in 2003 as the head coach of the women's basketball team. From 2003-10, he led the Huskies to a 156-55 record with five appearances in the NCAA Division II Championships. He was named the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Coach of the Year three times and his program never had a losing season.
He served as an assistant at Wisconsin during the 2010-11 season before assuming the same position at Michigan under Borseth for the 2011-12 campaign.
"John did a terrific job in his tenure as head coach at Michigan Tech and was a great addition as an assistant here at Green Bay," Borseth said. "I want to thank him and wish him well as his future moves forward."
Barnes replaces Horizon League Coach of the Year Bob Boldon, who accepted the head coaching position at the University of Ohio in March.

At the beginning of the calendar year, each Council will set an agenda of major items, issues, and policies to be considered for the year. In addition, each Council will take up agenda items as needed.
Both Councils meet monthly. As needed, special meetings, standing committees and ad hoc committees will be convened by the provost and vice provost.
Both Councils are convened by the provost or his/her designee.
Both Councils will operate by majority voting. Absent members can send a delegate and his/her delegate will be granted voting rights.
Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised will guide meeting management.
Agendas for the meetings, along with relevant materials, will be distributed at least three business days in advance for the meetings. Agendas and meeting materials are distributed via email to all Council members. Meetings are open and guests are frequently invited to participate in discussions.
Minutes of the meetings and the Academic Policy and Procedures are available to everyone in the college community.

'"I spent a lot of time sitting at home (last season)," Jeanneret said in a phone interview. "The time I spent in Florida, twice for a couple of weeks, was fine. That wasn't an issue. There were a couple of games I sat and watched that I should have been at. It stuck in my mind I should take another run at it. If I'm going to make a run at it, I might as well try it on for size."'

no cheating Woody I think we all know who "hit a freethrow" is. "missed again" ? must be dba
Ooh, sabermetrics. I like it.
oh... If an ACC team wins, I win. If not, it gets ugly fast.
ACC? I thought you were a Michigan fan
Yeah, but mostly field hockey and volleyball. Sent from my SCH-I905 using Tapatalk 2
Still wondering who 'Missed Again' is...
Missed Again Mikhail P
whoops. Missed That. Thanks
I'm totally IN. Seriously, I can't remember Who won last year.. was it me? or I just came up 2nd place? Do I have to fill the bracket right now?? Or I can wait a few more days?
You took first...beat the snot out of the rest of us. PF.com March MADNESS Tourney Pick'em | Page 6 | Detroit Pistons Forum You can't fill in the bracket until next Sunday after all the teams are seeded...Selection Sunday. But, you can do some advanced research based on predicted match-ups if you wish. Here's one: Bracket Prediction: A look at field of 68 six days from Selection Sunday
Niiicee! Thanks Detteam! This year its hard to pick! oh.. I love college basketball!
Officially in. I'm about to unleash an onslaught of accuracy, never before seen in the realm of predicting the outcome of college basketball games. ...and when I take home that $10,000 prize from Yahoo, I'm going to retire and buy my own private island! I'm gonna have a big party with lots of beer and I'm gonna hire Van Halen to perform! ...and none of you jackasses are going to be invited! Wusup NOW b%tc#es!
I'm not even eligible for the $10,000, that's how favored I am.
Geez, BDL, I think someone needs to reel you in. * So how do you win. ? Most correct selections, who goes deepest...?
I liked your post. Is there any way I can now be invited to visit the private island and get free beer and see Van Halen?
I'm going to build a jet airplane and fly away !
$10K is lame. They use to offer $1M for a perfect bracket
Only 10K for a perfect bracket? That's ridiculous. Has anyone ever even won the $1mil?
It was $1mil until I logged into Yahoo and filled out my entry form.
OK, BDL needs to be shut up !

PSE Beast 4x4. Split limbs, with limb savers, string leaches and kisser. Peep sight, Quiver, TM hunter rest and stabalizer. This bow is in great shape. Killed many deer. Would make a great bow for someone wanting a low price bow. Very well taken care of. Adjustable draw length and weight. I believe it is from 45-65 lbs. Might be more. I have pics. If interested, email me or pm. Asking $200 OBO. I want to move this thing, so, here it is. Thanks

Many Turkish female rights groups are furious at a new TV program which winds up depicting women as idiots who know little about the world around them. The show, "Oh My Lovely," has female and male teams. The girls are asked questions such as what does a locksmith do or what is a baboon, and, naturally, there are enough attractive girls in the world who don't know the function of a locksmith. The task of the boys is to guess which female answered the questions correctly. The approach is similar to the Jay Leno episodes in which he asks questions such as who is Washington D.C. named after and if one asks enough people the question there is bound to be someone who does not know the answer. Show producers blame the failure of schools to educate people as the reason some girls foul up on questions.
It is not surprising to identify ignorant women. Of course, turn around might also be interesting. Why not episodes in which males are asked to answer the same questions while women guess who is the idiot male? This is simply much ado about nothing.
How about a TV show which poses historical questions to producers of TV shows?

Our local "Rebel Scum" Collectors group had our annual Holiday Breakfast & Gift Exchange today. It happened to coincide with a Sidewalk sale at a local vintage toy & "Toys for Tots" toy drive. The 501'st show up every year as well as the local Rebel Legion & Ghostbusters Groups.
Well my kids wanted to get a picture with Boba & Jango & I happened to have my old (too large) TDH shirt as I was going to give it to one of my other friends.
So I went & grabbed it & we took a picture. I asked "Jango" if it was cool if I held the shirt in the picture. He asked where I got it. I explained I was a low profile member here mainly from my relationship with Mirax & Braks.
(I bought Mirax's SW Collection & "Davin Felth" from Brak's 2 years ago)
It was cool to meet you, I wish we could of had more time to talk but the event was huge & everyone wanted pictures with the 2 baddest Bounty Hunters in the Galaxy!!
I did get a chance to meet Boba, sorry.
I also just noticed I was wearing my "Bounty Club" T-shirt I bought from Monkey in a Dryer!!
Very nice suit by the way!!!

Aquaclear 70 with 20 impeller, who done it?
Hi guys looking for opinions on using aquaclear 70 with lower impeller such as 20, 30, or 50. I talked to DogFish and he said Hagen recommend only using two grades down on the impeller.
I just wanted to know if anyone ever done AC70 with a AC 20 impeller and what is your opion on it. Btw I'm trying it for a 10 gallon shrimp tank only. The big bio filter on the AC70 would be great to hold media for shrimp.
I tried an aquaclear 70 with a 30 impeller and it wouldn't pull hard enough to operate, you might have better luck with it. I tried the impeller from a 50 and it was fine but might be more flow than you want.
another way is to cut one or two of the fan off the impeller to lower the flow :)
ive done it with the 50,30,20 id have to go look but im 99% sure that the motor is the same in the 70 also ive even used the mini and they worked fine.
as to the the part cutting one fin of thats not smart you are setting it out of balance its better to shave or trim the fins down to a smaller diamiter vs removing them.
on my 5.5g shrimp tank i have a ac30 and a mini on it yes it alot of flow but if u know how to diffuse the water it works great, that said if u can diffuse the output i would just use the 70 on the tank, i would use the hardscape or use some of that plastic mesh and see if a piece folded in the shape of a C on the output would slow it enough for your preference*i think it should*, or have a piece follow the water on the outtake and have a little float on the surface say 2inch or so should do the trick.
i dont have an extra manual handy unless i open a sealed one to verify there the same motor unit but they should be so try it. also if the flow is to much u can use a drimmel and cut out the boundary so u can turn it to the right more like ive seem people say, many ways to skin a cat just see what way works for u!
-1 to the idea of trimming the impeller. Just like the wheel balance of your car tires, youlll likely attribute to noise and premature wear if trimmed leaving unequal weight at all corners.
Could you put the impeller in a drill and sand down the blades equally with some sand paper to remove it equally and retain the balance?

I think Starcraft 2 is not only my favorite video game in the entire world, it is also my favorite and most enjoyed hobby. I am, simply put, an eSports fanatic. Professional gaming has always intrigued me and I keep a close eye on not only the Starcraft pro scene but also that of DoTA 2. LoL not so much really.
I'd really like to share my love of eSports and affection for Starcraft 2 with all of you, and now it's become easier than ever!
Starcraft 2 has officially become free to play, though as it says in the title, there is a catch.
The only features of Starcraft 2 that you can not access with a Starter Edition account are the campaign and ranked ladder matches. BUT if you are in a party with someone who bought the game, you can play ranked team ladder matches just not ranked 1v1 matches.
This means all 3 races are available. Every map ever made is available, blizzard maps, old ladder maps, current ladder maps, custom maps, and even the maps you've created on your own!
This ALSO means that the arcade is free, as well as the map editor and extension mod editor. The arcade is a compilation of all the custom games people have created using Blizzard's tools. Honestly, there are so many arcade games it's ridiculous, and most of them could be considered complex enough to be their own game. Custom controls, graphics, textures, everything. The arcade is the hub for all "UMS" games for those who have played Brood War in the past. The potential of the arcade and map editor to make these arcade games is literally limitless.
I'm very excited about this momentous day, as this will surely bring a new influx of players.
If anyone wants to get started in Starcraft 2, feel free to message me and I can teach you some basics and/or play some team games with you. I am a Diamond Terran player, so I am OKAY at this game.
We can even play a limitless number of arcade games together!
I could try my hardest to explain all the brand new wonderful features in Starcraft 2, but hopefully I've provided the incentive to try it out yourself!
If you have ANY questions at all, if I've made things unclear for you, please ask either in this thread or message me.
Any ways, here are a few links for you folks to check out.

Driving business change in public security agencies
Assessing the key role of technology
By Rupert Hollin, Director, Strategy & Planning, SAS Public Security
Public security agencies understand the benefits of pursuing a change agenda as they strive to tackle crime and deliver greater efficiency. And they increasingly see the benefits of using the latest solutions to deliver that change.
Today, there are a growing number of drivers of adoption:
- Technology capable of driving change is now widely available.
- Agencies have an urgent requirement to keep pace with their adversaries' increasingly sophisticated use of technology.
- Agencies realize they will need to change their existing siloed or paper-based systems if they are to effectively adopt a capability-based approach to address these growing threats.
If you can deliver technology in one area that enables an agency to achieve quick wins and tangible benefits, then you have gone a long way toward a much broader solutions implementation that can kick-start real business change.
But that's not all
Looking ahead, systems flexibility will become more important as the nature of threat evolves. Driven by the need to make better use of their data resource, agencies are seeking out fully-integrated solutions, based on a single technology platform that also supports an analytics capability.
In the future, such technology will be key in enabling agencies to stay ahead of the rapidly-evolving regulatory environment, with agile systems critical in adjusting working processes to keep in line with the law. Technology can also be instrumental in enabling agencies to communicate with a wider external audience and engage more closely with them. Finally, with budgets still tight in many countries, improving operational efficiencies remains a key priority for many agencies. Technology-driven change programs can deliver this in abundance.
However, whilst these drivers are broadly accepted, the greatest barrier to change is frequently cultural. Industry observers argue over the need to address this key challenge first, prior to the introduction of new technology. In fact, the adoption of such technology can often act as the driver of cultural change. By implementing technology to address a specific pain point within the organization, agencies can quickly deliver a tangible capability. They can then win over the sceptics by delivering a proven case which shows how technology can improve working processes.
The issues impacting the decision to implement new technology as part of an organizational change agenda differ depending on market maturity:
In more mature markets, agencies are typically more used to and less skeptical of change because they are likely to have been through it numerous times before. However, these agencies generally operate within tighter regulatory or legislative frameworks than those in emerging regions. Change programs have to be conscious of that and new technology cannot be implemented without bearing those restrictions in mind.
Financial drivers are key here, particularly where government budgets are tight. Agencies tend to be particularly sensitive about the potential impact of change and therefore favor best-of-breed implementations rather than end-to-end technology solutions.
In contrast, agencies in emerging regions are typically starting from a much lower baseline. Often, they have historically worked in a purely paper-based environment. New technology therefore is more of a 'leap into the unknown.' Equally, business users typically find adoption of the technology harder because they are likely to be less familiar with the approaches and technologies used. Training and consultancy, therefore, have a key role to play.
Legislative or regulatory frameworks tend to be less well developed. Consequently, restrictions on the way technology can be used can be less tight. As a result, operational benefits are a key driver. So, the solutions provider needs to effectively communicate how the capability can help the agency in transforming the way it works.
One part of the bigger picture
Ultimately, technology is always just one element of the business change agenda within public security agencies. In order to achieve success from any new systems installation, agencies will also need to address the cultural, change management and business process aspects of the implementation.
Demonstrating that the technology works in practice can help providers get the deal over the line. But technology can never simply be introduced in isolation.
The best practice approach is to identify 'change catalysts' across the organization: people who have technical capability and credibility within the business, and who can also act as mentors, not only in terms of the adoption and use of the technology, important though that is, but also with regard to the broader cultural aspects of that change.
Ultimately, achieving business change within any agency is going to be a tough challenge. It's never just going to be about the 'bits and bytes', it's about all the soft issues around change management, training and consultancy too. Nevertheless, technology can often be a critical enabler. We have seen it so many times before, from agencies using analytics on data that has been collected to pinpoint patterns of offending to police forces using holistic search capabilities to help drive operational efficiencies. If you can deliver technology in one area that enables an agency to achieve quick wins and tangible benefits, then you have gone a long way toward a much broader solutions implementation that can kick-start real business change.
