. So I have to wonder, does it ever occur to council members, when agreeing to ban something for which there is no purpose for the decision, that they look foolish? cheap oakleys I am fully supportive of imposing restrictions when discount oakleys online it is for the greater good, when it is necessary to preserve water or prevent fires from consuming homes and fake oakleys store forest. Shouldn't common sense prevail when setting the date to impose restrictions, for example when the weather dries out, when the reservoirs are full without spilling over or the fire danger rises above 'couldn't happen'? All you need to do is click on Weather Network and look at the long term forecast. Eight of the next 12 days call for rain, the daily low temperatures don't appear to go above 10 degrees. But someone in the bureaucracy decided the abolition dates, based on vague expectations that every year is the same, and that in some distant past May was hot and dry, preceded by an equally dry April. And wholesale discount ray ban council, not quite getting the 'optics' of questionable decision making, merely
In the past few months the Authenitc Donnie Jones jersey idea of Elite Womens Darren Sproles jersey a college football playoff has a renewed fire. When interviewed the night before his election win over John McCain, President elect Barack Obama said that an 8 team playoff Elite Blue Darren Sproles jersey was a must. A few short weeks later, Obama told 60 Minutes that he would "throw his weight around" to see what he can do to get an 8 team college football playoff started. While I love Obama's enthusiasm on the topic there is a lot Youth Byron Maxwell jersey more that needs to be ironed out.
Below you will find my plan for a 16 team college football playoff. I am certain that many will disagree with me on this topic and I expect it.
Before getting into the details, the regular season needs to be cut back to 11 games for every team. Since Conference Championship Games Authenitc Black Brandon Graham jersey are basically a must in today's game, we need to require every conference to have a Championship Game or just deal with the disadvantage of not playing the extra week as the Big Ten has done for years now and done nothing to remedy.
I have chosen the 16 team format for one reason and one reason alone. FAIRNESS, something that has long been neglected by the NCAA for Division I A Football Bowl Subdivision football. You see, the whole idea of the BCS basically limits any real chance at any kind of a fair chance for 45 of the 120 Division I A college football programs in 2009. With 65 teams in BCS Conferences and over 90% of the BCS Bowl Game bids (and the $17 million payout for playing in those games, win or lose), the deck is stacked against the non BCS teams in the WAC, Mountain West, MAC, Conference USA Sun Belt. Authenitc Kids Chuck Bednarik jersey Add in the whole Notre Dame special name recognition and money clause and the whole deal is even more corrupt. So we start with 16 teams 11 conference champions and 5 at large bids.
The BCS computers, the same computers that somehow placed Oklahoma over Texas for the 5th tie breaker in the Big 12 South this season despite Texas' win over the Sooners in the regular season, can be put to a new use under my plan. The BCS formula can now be used to help determine seeding for our new playoff system for college football. Seeds 1 6 can remain with the 6 BCS conferences (unless a new conference were to emerge as a BCS member) and the rest of the seeds can be determined by a selection committee (much like the NCAA Tournament) and the BCS numbers, which are the equivalent of college basketball's RPI rankings.
For example, based on the Authenitc Youth Brandon Graham jersey Elite Byron Maxwell jersey 2007 BCS rankings, our playoff would include these 16 teams in the following order:
1. Ohio State (Big Ten Champion) vs. 16. Authenitc Blue Darren Sproles jersey Florida Atlantic (Sun Belt Champion)
2. LSU (SEC Champion) vs. 15 Central Michigan (MAC Champion)
3. Virginia Tech (ACC Champion) vs. 14 UCF (Conference USA Champion)
4. Oklahoma (Big 12 Champion) vs. 13 BYU (MWC Champion)
5. USC (Pac 10 Champion) vs. 12 Florida (at large, BCS 12)
6. West Virginia (Big East Champion) Authenitc Youth Byron Maxwell jersey vs. Elite Youth Brandon Graham jersey 11 Arizona State (at large, BCS 11)
7. Georgia (at large, BCS 5) vs. 10 Hawaii (WAC Champion, BCS 10)
8. Missouri (at large, BCS 6) vs. 9 Kansas (at large, BCS
How this playoff would have ended none of us will ever know, but what would likely have avoided is highly hyped BCS Championship Game blowouts like the past two seasons where Ohio State could not matchup with Florida and LSU of the SEC.
2008 is even more interesting. Normally, a non BCS conference team needs to finish in the Top 12 of the final BCS rankings to be BCS bowl eligible, or in the Top 16 with at least one other BCS conference champion ranked below them. This season, we have 3 non BCS conference teams in the BCS Top 12 with Utah being guaranteed a BCS Bowl berth. However, while an undefeated Boise State has more BCS wins in the Authenitc Kids Darren Elite Black Brad Smith jersey Sproles jersey past two years in half as many games, it seems Womens Brandon Graham jersey likely that the "sexier" Ohio State will instead be cashing in on another $17 million while a higher ranked and more deserving Boise State gets left out of the BCS. Remember when I mention fairness above?
So what do we do with the bowls? I love bowl games as much as anyone, and I do not want them to go away nor do they need to be eliminated. A 16 game tournament means 15 games will be played, 15 games that can be hosted by the Top 7 bowls, matched up regionally as best as possible, with the four Mens Brad Smith jersey big money (current) BCS bowl games, the Rose, Orange, Fiesta Sugar hosting the College Football Final Eight through the National Championship.
The 16 team format eliminates the need for 8 traditional bowl games, thus the current 34 bowl games will be reduced to 26 bowls. Some overlap will likely be Elite Blue Chuck Bednarik jersey needed with the 3 non BCS bowls involved in the first round of our playoff format, but this could allow some cities to double dip and actually get Authenitc Womens Brad Smith jersey two bowl caliber games (one bowl, one playoff game). This overlap could even be rotated to allow for a greater economic impact to ensure the same cities do not get the tourism dollars year in and year out.
The 26 bowl games would be handled the same as today; conference affiliations agreements. Of course a 6 win season will still be required for bowl eligibility.
So there you have it, a 16 team playoff format. Critics will begin with arguments like "that's too many games for these student athletes" or a focus on the academics and the hardships these college students would be under if they advance to the 16 team playoff and keep playing. My counter to that is that academics did not decide the 12th game that was recently added to everyone's schedule in the Football Bowl Subdivision, and academics don't seem to matter in breaking the Texas Oklahoma Texas Tech debate for the Big 12 South title and Big 12 Championship Youth Brandon Graham jersey debate, so quit saying you care about anything other than money. Some may wonder how to handle the dollars in a playoff system. Much like the professional sports, teams are rewarded with additional revenue the farther they advance in the playoffs. The traditional bowls can remain the same while the playoff system will be based on a predetermined Elite Mens Brandon Graham jersey amount, much like today's $17 million payout in each BCS Bowl Game.
At the end of the season all teams below .500 will end with 11 football games, those who play in traditional bowl games will play 12 games, conference championship participants a minimum of 13 games (unless a conference championship loser finished with a 5 7 record, a very rare result), and playoff participants would play a minimum of 13 and a maximum of 16 games.
Look, there is obviously no exact solution that everyone will like. An 8 team playoff is a nice idea, but this once again likely keeps all non BCS conference champions on the outside looking in. The thrill of the NCAA Tournament is when a heavy favorite collides with an underdog, and this plan allows for underdogs to have a fair chance.

Customer review on 17/05/2010
This is certainly one of the very best guided meditation CDs I have used - and I've tried many and use them regularly. Patricia Cori's voice is clear and calm and her use of the meditation bell extremely effective. I have found I am able to get into a deeper level of meditation very quickly while listening to this CD. Each meditation is very well paced, leaving ample time to explore memories of past events to retrieve and heal soul fragments. And I've found the final meditation - DNA Activation: The Matrix of Higher Consciousness - extremely powerful. The length of the five meditations is 38 minutes, the two longer ones being 14 minutes and 12.25 minutes, so easily something that you could work with every day if you chose to do so, however busy your schedule.

HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL: Portage whips Blairsville again
PORTAGE — After Friday night's game, Blairsville junior quarterback Scott Thompson was frustrated, muddy and bleeding — which pretty much sums up the conclusion of the Bobcats' 2013 campaign.
Blairsville turned the ball over on two of its first three possessions and never recovered in a 49-14 loss to the top-seeded Mustangs in the quarterfinal round of the District 6 Class A football playoffs at Portage Stadium.
It was the second time in three weeks that the eighth-seeded Bobcats faced the Mustangs, and the outcome was the same. Portage won the Week 9 matchup 38-6 in a non-conference game in Blairsville.
"We were a lot more confident this week than we were the first time we played them," Thompson said. "But it didn't seem to matter. We came in two weeks ago, blind, but we knew they were a good team. We changed a lot from then, but it just didn't pay off."
Portage outgained the Bobcats 451-194 and doubled them up in first downs. Blairsville cut the lead to 21-7 at one point in the second quarter, but lost any momentum by giving up a big touchdown drive at the end of the half.
The defeat was an unpleasant ending to an up-and-down season for the Bobcats, who finished with a 6-5 record. Blairsville, under first-year coach Rick Artley, overcame a pile of injuries throughout the season and squeezed into the playoffs after a 40-19 win over Moshannon Valley last week. The Bobcats had some good wins and some ugly losses, but their playoff hopes took a hit in their first meeting with Portage, which racked up 315 rushing yards Friday night.
"They have a lot of keys," Artley said. "They tell you where the ball's going, but you have to be able to stop it. And we couldn't stop it again tonight.
"They run the ball with their motion and with pulling their guards. They take you to the football with their movement. We knew where they were going, but they were good enough to dominate us on the line of scrimmage — in the second half especially. In the first half, we kind of hung around."
Caleb Kephart led Portage with 174 yards on 15 carries and scored three touchdowns. Blairs-ville running back Deion Robinson had 40 yards on 11 attempts.
The Bobcats let the Mustangs drive 58 yards on the opening drive but forced them to turn the ball over on downs at the 7-yard line. But two plays later, Thompson fumbled at the 12-yard line, and Kephart scooped up the ball and took off for the end zone. He bobbled it at the goal line and grabbed it again to give the Mustangs an early lead.
"This is the second time in three weeks, and it's basically the same game played out," Artley said. "I thought we did a much better job defensively against the run early, we just had some letdowns and missed opportunities. We couldn't capitalize, and the turnovers killed us."
On their next possession, the Mustangs, who had no penalties and no turnovers, went 73 yards and scored on Scott Giles' 3-yard run to go up 14-0.
Similar to their previous game against Portage, the Bobcats had no problem moving the ball — they just couldn't finish the job. They bounced back with a solid drive, but Thompson was picked off in the end zone by Luke Dividock. The turnover led to a 1-yard touchdown by Mustangs quarterback Michael Bryja that gave them a 21-0 lead.
"There was some uncontrollable blitzes, and just some things on offense we couldn't pick up for some reason," said Thompson, who finished with minus-25 rushing yards due to a few big sacks. "They just saw what we did and picked up on it, and we couldn't stop them on either side of the ball."
Thompson capped a 56-yard, five-play drive with a 1-yard run to put the Bobcats on the board with 30 seconds left in the first half. Then, instead of taking a knee with 26.8 seconds to go, Portage strung together three straight pass plays that spanned 64 yards in just 22 seconds for a score. Bryja connected with C.W. Miller on all three, the last a 14-yard touchdown that gave Portage a 28-7 lead heading into the break. Bryja finished 6 of 9 for 136 yards.
"That was really big for us," Portage coach Gary Gouse said. "Michael said, 'Let's do it, Coach' and I agreed. Then bam, bam, bam, he went to work with it. I was really proud of how he handled that stretch there."
"Well, we had it to 21-7, and then we gave up a couple passes and they're in the end zone in 30 seconds," Artley said. "You think in 30 seconds that you have a chance to hold on. They did a great job. We didn't cover that great. He is a good quarterback, and he throws a nice ball and that's what made us pay more in the first half than anything. It wasn't really the run game. The second half run totals were obviously blown up, but the first half was mostly passing."
The Mustangs forced a three-and-out to start the second half and then scored on a 59-yard run by Kephart on their first play from scrimmage.
"When we didn't score on that first drive in the second half, and they came out on the first play and scored, you see that a lot of times," Artley said. "That the steam roller starts and doesn't stop, and that's exactly what happened there."
Blairsville wasn't giving up that easily, though, and Thompson returned the ensuing kickoff 85 yards for a touchdown to give the Bobcats some life.
But that spark soon went out, and Kephart tacked on another touchdown five plays later. Chris Onder added a 9-yard score with 4:03 left in the third quarter to put the mercy rule into effect.
"They made some nice adjustments since the last time, and we did a couple of things," Gouse said. "Our kids played hard. In the playoffs, everyone's going to play their guts out. My hat's off to them for battling. Our kids played really, really well."
The Mustangs (9-1) advanced and will face the winner of tonight's Penns Manor-Bishop Guilfoyle game in the district semifinals next week.
"I know BG is the heavy favorite, but we'll see what happens," Gouse said. "I also know Penns Manor has a big front line, so you never know."
Blairsville is done until next year, but despite the harsh, disappointing end to its season, Thompson kept a level head, tried to smile and said: "It stinks, but these things just happen, I guess."

Textured chip guard over surfacer?
I currently have my truck epoxy primed (MP170) with a couple coats of surfacer (MP282) over that. I want to apply textured chip guard on the lower stone throw areas (3M, SEM or gravel guard U-Pol). Is this OK over the surfacer? Are any of these products better than the other? I have done a search and have come up with nothing.
Sounds like your on the right track!
3M,SEM and U-Pol are all good products. Make sure you give the area you intend to put the gravel gard on a good tooth to grab onto... I would not go less of a grit than 320. You may want to put a coat of primer over the gaurd if your using a light top coat(color). I worry about bleeding when light top coats are used... Just me.
If you prime over the gaurd,you can scuff that area with a 3M pad before paint.. a DA or sand paper would cut down the texture. Which would be ok too if you want that effect. (I'm sure you know this)
Just helpfull tips.. sounds like you already have a good hold on what to do as you've already put all the right products down first :thumbup:
Yeah, all those producst will work. Just remember they are all a 1K product-basically a lacquer type design so give it plenty of dry time before applying your paint-follow the directions on the can. None of them are comparable in quality to what the OEM used.
Another option if you're just looking for texture is to load your gravity feed gun with a urethane surfacer and turn the airpressure down so it spits, spit the primer on to the desired texture where needed then adjust the pressure up and lay on one light thin wet coat, allow to cure then scuff with a scotchbrite then paint. Sounds crude? It works in a pinch... Bob
Are there any 2K gravel guards out there?
I will have to check but I believe the SPI bedliner product may be what you are looking for in a 2k gravel guard..I know it can be tinted and sticks fine to epoxy primer and one can manipulate the texture..I do not know of any reason it would not work in this case..
I would like to spray the gravel guard and topcoat using SS PPG Concept.
It will work no problem, just make sure you give the gravel guard the proper amount of dry time or the solvents being released will keep the Concept from curing. Follow the gravel guard manufacturer's instructions on the can.
THANKS! :cool:

89 Honda Civic Head Gasket
Checking to see if anyone has experience on these cars.
About a year ago a friend of mine was given this car so he
did a overhaul on the engine then drove it for about seven months.
It blew a head gasket so we snatched the head off, had it reworked and milled to assure flatness. We used new head bolts and a fel pro gasket. This time it's ran a week and today when he was riding home it blew the head gasket again. The car hasn't ran hot, which is another part of it that mystifies. The engine is the standard 4 cylinder. My thoughts are the block is likely warped. However if anyone has any tips on why it keeps blowing the gasket any help is appreciated.
x2 ........:(
89 Honda Civic Head Gasket
Now you know why he was given the car instead of having to pay for it and the previous owner is not feeling guilty by selling it.
Did you replace the headbolts each time?
Torque to yield bolts wont hold a head gasket if re used.
Also the torque sequence/procedure is pretty important. I have done some pretty crazy ones.
When the torque spec sequence is 5-7 steps and requires loosening and retightening plus a specific degree amount past a certain torque ......gets pretty crazy.
Hey Chet. Yeah they are a bit tasky huh?
I like the subarus, AWD comes in handy here in the snow belt.
Seems the head gaskets allways start to weep around wintertime around here.Usually after a car is over 100 K
YOu checked they were straight and blew again. Were they the correct gasket?
If it is hondas gasket the head gasket is cometic. Made of multiple sheets of soft metal bonded together. They are in fact hard to make fail.
Can you tell if it is always failing at the same place? Can you at least tell if #3 cylinder, for example, is always the one filled with coolant?
The last time the head was removed I inspected the gasket and found it failed at one of the steam holes since this engine has siamesed cylinders. His father, who's a 30 year master tech did the head torque and did so with the book opened to the page that gives the order, if there was a certain way it had to be torqued such as doing so in steps it was followed. His father did many head gasket jobs on honda's in the past and never had the issue of repeated failure. However now I don't think it matters much as I don't think he's going to bother to invest the time and money into again as the car really isn't worth it. Thanks for the suggestions guys.

Uhhh guys... I know that there are a lot of dumb criminals out there, but there are not-so-dumb ones too. I would not anticipate the criminal allowing the safe owner to open up the safe, and retrieve a "safe gun" so he can defend. Need to be a little smarter than that!
Aim Low, don't be Disappointed, and Reach your Goals.
I have firearms in my house and I keep them loaded in case of a home invasion, so if the situation gets to where the bad guy is making demands and I'm unarmed...then things must have gotten very ugly and I doubt that he would even be alive. Nonetheless, if it gets to that I have an old Beretta 1934 .380ACP that I always keep loaded inside my safe for that specific role. Therefore, if he takes me to open it I will gladly do it. I would hand him over some fancy watches and cash I keep in there to serve as a distraction and when his eyes flash with "bling" and greed, I would pull out the pistol and shoot him point blank until he is out.
I'm buying a Ruger SP-101 2.25" .357 Magnum for this specific duty since I want more firepower. I think everyone should have a last ditch handgun in their safe.

http://www.projectmanager.com – Everyone dislikes meetings that drag on. So your job is to make it focused, highly driven and to add a sense of purpose. If you do this, then you'll boost team motivation and morale. Here are 5 tips to help you...
Tip 1: Plan wisely
To make sure you get the most out of your meetings, you need to plan them wisely. Prior to each meeting, write down 3 goals that you want from the meeting. Here are some examples:
√ "I want the team to know we're on track"
√ "I want any issues or risks to be raised"
√ "I want them to feel valued and motivated"
Then you need to work out how you're going to achieve your goals. The next few tips will help you with this…
Tip 2: Open and close carefully
Like in theatre, people most remember the opening and the closure the most. So open and close your meetings carefully. When you open the meeting, tell them what the purpose of the meeting is, what you want to get out of it and why it's important. This gets their attention and sets the scene. When you close the meeting, tell them what has been agreed / achieved in the meeting and the next steps going forward.
Tip 3: Control the conversation
You need to be in complete control of the meeting at all times, to ensure that:
√ The meeting follows the agenda
√ You never get stuck on a single issue
√ One person doesn't dominate it
√ Everyone has their say
Start by standing or sitting in a prominent place in the room. Raise your voice a little to add presence. Jump in frequently when people talk too long. Be polite but strong. Control the meeting as a coach would control a football team - by constantly watching, listening and directing the team. If possible, ask someone else to record the minutes. This gives you the time needed to control the conversation so that the agenda and your 3 goals are met.
Tip 4: Park it and move on
Often in meetings, a single issue can consume the majority of the meeting time. If the issue is not related to your specific meeting goals, then tell the team to "park it and move on". Record the issue on a whiteboard or paper and address it with the relevant team members separately after the meeting. This keeps your meetings short and focused.
Tip 5: Keep it action orientated
Projects are all about "getting things done". So make sure that where possible, every discussion results in an action to be completed. Focusing on the actions that are needed, is a great way of reducing the length of meetings.

On July 7, 2012 two female victims contacted the Jackson County Sheriff's Office in reference to a sexual battery complaint. The victims stated the following incident.
Justin Jay Adkins contacted one of the victims he was aquainted with and told her he had some arrowheads he needed transported to a buyer in Dothan, Alabama. He told her she would be paid by the buyer when she delivered the arrowheads.
The victim and another female friend met Adkins at a location on Hwy 162 in north central Jackson County. He told them he did not have the arrowheads at that location and entered their vehicle. He directed them to a location where he said the arrowheads were located.
Adkins accompanied the females to an isolated field and touched them in an inappropriate manner. Adkins stated he would take them back to the location they first met, but instead he drove them to another isolated field. At this location he displayed and threatened them with a knife to submit to inappropriate sexual activity. Adkins then had unlawful physical contact with one of the female victims. The victims stated they finally convinced Adkins to release them.
On July 10, 2012 approximately 3:00 p.m. Adkins was taken into custody at the Jackson County Sheriff's Office.
Adkins is charged with Sexual Battery, Attempted Sexual Battery, and two counts of Kidnapping. Adkins was transported to the Jackson County Correctional Facility to await first appearance.

I was away for some time, busy busy times. When I am done with my internship (which is sad also) in January, I will be publishing much more since I got more time then.
But I'm happy to announce right now, that I bought these lovely (fake) Lita boots <3. I just loooove low budget, and they are so pretty! I just have to wait now until they arrive (takes about two weeks).
I want to wear them with Christmas <3, with a lovely black dip hem dress like below in combination with a short biker jacket or something?

Sometimes it's just best to keep things simple. Bring it back to basics if you will. That's why I abosloutley love the simplicity of this Jigsaw London striped dress. The sweater-like material is perfect for the chilly season, but lightweight enough that you're not going to feel heavy and restricted. I'd totally pair this with black tights, heels and a blazer, but rocking it in a more casual way with flats is totally doable too! While purchasing trendy pieces are always fun, don't forget to invest in those basic, versatile pieces too! (Jigsaw London Striped Dress, $75)

This week we got some scraps. Mom ate this popcorn chicken stuff and tater tots smothered in cheddar cheese, but she didn't eat that much, so I (us) got it. It was mm mm good... although Stinky and Misty ate some of it too.. it was MINE! Stinky ate lots of it.... no offense to Stinky, but he's a HUGE pig! It was really good though, I don't blame him for taking it... well, I do.. because I'm the princess, but, you get what I mean.. *giggles!!*
She rescued these two little baby kittens... they are pretty cute, but this is MY queendom! I TOLD her I didn't want any more baby kittens. Ebony (Wolverine) and Tiger (sometimes ACCIDENTALLY called Tigger... not to be mistaken with our old cat, Tigger. (He will NEVER be forgotten.. and will never be able to be replaced!!! He's one that I actually LIKED..) Anyway, we didn't really get to see the kittens yet, except out the window.
Their eyes are almost a tiny bit open, but they 'poop' alot (in my queenly royal-stuff language, feces...) The servants were really hoping that they got their genders right, but they do. Now, I must go and take one of my queenly daily naps... gotta keep up my amazing beauty, you know! Love you all... ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!
It's not Easy being a Princess! Princess
I should have gotten to play! But I didn't. Mom came out when she woke up as she does always, it was cold and windy but she came out on the screened porch anyway. We had play time and snuggle time as usual, with us taking turns to play with the curtain tie. It was Misty's turn so she told me to wait behind her. I just sat down then lied down. Then she ran the curtain tie across the floor for Misty to chase and Mom KNOWS I love chasing the curtain tie when she runs it across the floor, so I got up and pounced on her and ran off with the tie. May I add that I love that tie more than any of the other cats. She of course snatched the tie back from me and ended Misty's turn and gave it to Stinky. How dare she not listen to the Princess! But at least I got lots of nice kissies.
Note from Mom: She did get to play .. but she really wanted that tie to play with some more.
Gonna Shun You, Mom!
It's not easy being a Princess! Princess
♥Play and Snuggle Time♥
What the title says. I really should!! Servant-Typist came out on the porch today to play with us with the curtain tie. We tore it apart and the string flew across the porch. It was fascinating. Servant-Typist was afraid I would swallow the string or Devil Freak or Stinkster would, so she put it away and snuggle-time begun. I didn't get to play much but she kissed my head and I didn't get much snuggles 'cause I sat on the cardboard box all the time then laid down .. slept, got up and ran to Servant-Brother and laid down again and slept. Then she had to go.. at the end the stupid Devil Freak tried to groom me. No one grooms me but myself! And maybe Stinkster .. if I let him. I did NOT tell her to groom me!!! But no, she does it anyway, doesn't she!?! She told me to wait for my turn. I shouldn't have to wait for my turn to play!!! I'm the princess! Ugh..
Back to sleeping!!

But sometimes it pays off in unexpected ways. For Zeavin, her experience over the past three seasons as a manager with the women's basketball team led directly to her extraordinary summer job.
At Vanderbilt, all of the team's student managers assist with video operations, including taping practices and road games and assisting with the breakdown of game film and practice tapes.
So when Zeavin was looking for an internship after her sophomore year, former women's basketball SID Kerwin Lonzo suggested that she look for an internship with a WNBA team. Both the Los Angeles Sparks and the Charlotte Sting were interested.
"I'm from California, so that would have been nice," Zeavin told VandyMania last month, "but Charlotte was a better internship for me because it was doing video and I already knew how to do it, so I ended up doing that there."
As an intern with the Charlotte Sting in the summer of 2005, Zeavin was responsible for breaking down game film for use by the coaching staff including assistant coach Cheryl Reeve, but as an intern, she didn't travel with the team.
During the off-season, Reeve accepted a position with the Shock. In February, Zeavin's phone rang. Reeve was on the other end. "I have a job here, you want one, too?" she asked.
Zeavin accepted the job, and the rest is history.
Going into the season, Detroit was favored to win the WNBA championship.
"We had a lot of really talented players," said Zeavin. "The media was saying that Detroit's the best team out there, so it just a matter of the girls getting out on the court and putting it all together."
But of course there was a lot more to it than that. Before the players take the court, there's a game plan. And before the game plan can be made, the coaching staff needs to know what the opponent is likely to bring to the court.
And that's where the video coordinator enters the picture.
As video coordinator, before each game, Zeavin was responsible for breaking down the film that the coaching staff would use to create a plan for the game.
"Usually, we used the last four games for every team that we were going to play," said Zeavin. "So for example, if we played Indiana, we'd break down four Indiana games, then our last game against Indiana if we'd played them before.
"I'd watch the whole game and break it down, offense, and defense, shot by shot result, possession result, and points from that possession. Then after I broke down the whole game, I pulled the personnel clips for each player from their team.
"Then the coaches would go over it and make a playbook for a scout tape, and then they'd show the personnel clips that they liked to the scout team."
As an intern for the Sting last year, Zeavin stayed in Charlotte while the team went on the road. But this summer, as video coordinator, Zeavin's responsibilities required that she travel with the team.
"In the WNBA and the NBA it's required to have a live feed in each locker room during the game," explained Zeavin. "The video coordinators aren't actually responsible for filming anything, just for breaking down the film, so during the game I would usually sit in the locker room and just break it down the same as I would any scout tape. That way, if the coaches want to see something at halftime, you've got it for them."
Her game day responsibilities meant that Zeavin only saw a couple of games live at courtside. During the regular season, she watched all the games on the video monitor in the locker room, except for the game in Chicago, where the newest WNBA expansion team played in a gym without the usual video facilities.
As the Shock began their run through the playoffs, the fall semester began at Vanderbilt. Zeavin criss-crossed the country, attending her classes at Vanderbilt in Nashville during the week, then flying to meet the team for games in Connecticut for the Eastern Conference finals and in Detroit and Sacramento for the championship series.
After watching almost every one of the Shock's games from the locker room, Zeavin was able to watch the championship game from courtside and share in the excitement of the payoff for the countless hours she'd spent in front of a video monitor.
"I think we all started feeling it mid-way through the fourth quarter," said Zeavin. "Then in the last minute or two we pretty much knew we were going to win, so that was exciting."
After the final buzzer, Zeavin was courtside as the new champions received the trophy, and in the locker room as the champagne flowed freely. She'll also receive a WNBA championship ring to commemorate her summer's work.
Zeavin's future plans beyond graduation aren't settled yet. She's applying to graduate schools in both women's studies and in sports management, and her experiences at Vanderbilt and in the WNBA give her a great resume for a future position as video coordinator or director of basketball operations.
But in the meantime, there's a lot of basketball to be played, a lot of film to watch, and many loads of laundry before graduation in May -- and it all starts tonight.

Lamb and chicken dishes dominate the Libyan cuisine.Most of the Libyan recipes are made with lamb more then chicken.But being a Mediterranean region Libyan diet is also rich in sea food like Fish,Octopus and squids. Sundried Octopus cooked in a tomato herb stew flavoured with garlic and served on Couscous is a favourite delicacy in Libya.We get many varieties of fish from mediterranean sea like Pomfert,Mullet,Moonfish,Sardines(spanish Sardine),Anchovies.Libyans likes fresh fish more then dried fish.Mostely fish is cooked on a grill and served with couscous or cooked as a stew with potatoes and served with Bazin(Bazin is popular and treditional dish in Libya which is made by a dough with roasted barli and other grains and served with a stew of fish or meat. It is similar to South Indian ragimudde(ragisankati) or jonnasankati ).And the next recipe with fish in Libyan cuisine is Hraimeh- which is fish pouched in a spicey tomato gravy flavoured with garlic and caraway powder. Here I go with Hraimeh recipe from Libyan cuisune.....
Olive oil -- 3 tab sp
Water -- 1 cup (100 ml)
Lemon juice -- 1 tab sp
Tomato puree -- 5 tab sps
Garlic cloves -- 4 finely chopped
Salt -- a pinch or according to your taste
Cumin -- 1 tea sp ground(cumin powder)
Caraway - 1/2 tea sp ground (Caraway seed powder)
Paprika -- 2 tea sp (mix hot and sweet, I used Indian red chilli powder because we like little spicy)
Tuna Steaks -- 4 (140 g) You can use any other boneless fish steaks.
1.Mix oil,water,lemon juice,tomato puree,garlic,salt and spices.
2.Pour in to a sauce pan and cook in a low heat for 10 minutes.

Harissa is a red chilli paste which is very commonly found in North African cuisine. In Libya,Tunisia and Moroccan cuisine it is offen used as a condiment in meat dishes, stews, sauces and also in couscous. In Libyan Harissa is offen used as a marinate for meat.It is popular as a break fast spread, Harissa mixed with tuna is a favorite sandwich filling in Libya.There are many recipes for Harissa according to household and region.Variations can include the addition of cumin, garlic,mint,dry coriander and lemon juice.Comming to the chillies the main ingredient commonly used is piri piri peppers or serrano peppers or other hot chilies you can use less spice chillis also but that won't give a original flavour, olive oil is a standard ingredient.I came up with two recipes from my Libyan friends one is less spice and the other one is realy hot .The less spicer one include tomato puree that is gone very well with sandwich and salads.the other one Iam using as a marination and as a flavouring for stew s and curry's
Red chillies --- 12 finely chopped
Cumin seeds -- 1 tea sp
Garlic -- 6 cloves
Coriander seeds -- 1 tab sp (dry roasted)
caraway seeds -- 1/4 tea sp (dry roasted)
Salt -- 1/2 tea sp
Olive oil to cover the paste
If you like can add 1 tab sp of tomato paste to make harissa less hot
Add salt and bleand in to a smooth paste.
Store Harissa in a clean glass jar top with a thin layer of olive oil.
This will stay for a month in fridge.
You can make Harissa with dry red chillies also in that case ..
Soak the dry red chillies in warm water for 15 minutes or untill chillies became soft then chop and bleand with other spices and little water (which we soaked the dry chillies) and pour olive oil on top to cover the paste.
If you are using dry chillies then no need to cook them, just soak the chillies till soft and grind .

I've got a 14' Alumacraft Crappi Jon for sale. I believe that it's a 1996 model. I took all the carpet out and sprayed in bedliner. Boat is in perfect shape...no leaks or hooks in the hull. Boat has a flat floor.
Comes with a 5hp Briggs & Stratton air-cooled outboard. Doesn't plane the boat out, and it's slow, but it cranks up everytime and runs like a top.
Here is the layout from Alumacraft's page(it's the Crappie Jon, not the Crappie DLX)
Asking $950obo for BMT, and $700 for just the boat and trailer. Located in Las Cruces.

When I decided to explore my options with an online shop, I thought that it would be as simple as finding someone to make me a website. Well, that was easy enough, but it was also quite evident that I needed something much more than a decent looking website. First off, the site, while nice, did not really reflect the kind of image that I wanted it to. Secondly, no one was coming to it! That is when I did a new search for Wollongong web design SEO. I had done my homework while I was waiting for my site to take off, and I had plenty of time to figure out why it was failing so miserably.
It was during this time that I learned about search engine optimization. I realized that the nicest site in the world was not going attract visitors if the SEO simply wasn't there. Continue reading A New Website Saved My Business

Check some of the XD holsters, some of the IWB's for XD's work perfectly. I've only found a few that don't.
This is a discussion on Beretta PX4 Sub Compact within the Defensive Carry Holsters & Carry Options forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; Anyone have any good holster ideas? I have a PX4 compact but just bought the SC......
Anyone have any good holster ideas? I have a PX4 compact but just bought the SC...
Check some of the XD holsters, some of the IWB's for XD's work perfectly. I've only found a few that don't.
Check the cusotm makers here...I am sure somebody makes them.
Friends don't let friends be MALL NINJAS.
I am just as nice as anyone lets me be and can be just as mean as anyone makes me. - Quoted from Terryger, New member to our forum.
I alternate between my Px4 full-size and my Px4 SC. You don't say whether you want a IWB or OWB holster for your SC. Here are some manufacturers that I know can make a good holster for your SC.
Bullard Gunleather -- Gun Leather, Concealment and Cowboy holsters, Azle, TX.
I have the TxCC for my SC. Although the workmanship is the best of any of the holsters I own, I don't particularly like this holster due to it's lack of balance. However, the quality is so good, that I'm sure that one of his other holsters would be a good choice.
Desbiens Gunleather -- Desbiens Gun Leather
I don't own any from him, but I discussed with him and he will make any of his designs for the SC.
Fist Holsters -- HOLSTERS
I also don't have any of his products, but have discussed with him, and he will make for the Px4 SC.
Mernickle Holsters -- Mernickle Custom Holsters - Performance Series (Concealment)
I have their PS2SOB for my full-size Px4. Good quality products, good customer service. Not as high on the craftsmanship as Bullard, but still very good.
Finally, Comp-tac -- Comp-Tac : Top-Quality Firearm Accessories
I have one of their MTACs for my full-size. They don't currently make one for the SC, but call them and bug them for me. This is my favorite holster for my full-size, and I want one for the SC.
We also have our whole line for the PX4 Sub Compact.
Mine sits in a Galco, model # SUM 480B. IWB. This was a comfortable fit, tried on many at the range. It's actually made for a FNP 9/40 but I like it. For a change, I've been looking for a OWB, considering a Hume JIT, I 'll go look at the links in a previous message.
I'm currently searching for an OWB for the Mrs.s' Walther PPS
I just got a PX4SC and my cc permit. Now I'm in the market for a holster. After a bit of internet research I have found two holsters that have sparked my interested - Bullard Tuckable IWB and the High Noon Closing Argument. I am in need of guidance from some seasoned vets. Any thoughts? I am a skinny guy - 5'10" @ 150 #. I am still open to other ideas as well.
Hey Guys,
I make an OWB and 3 IWB holsters for the Beretta PX4SC. Check them out on my website Bulldog Leather Company - Home
Check Don Hume Leathergoods, manufactures high quality leather and nylon goods. they make a P.C.C.H XD-C that works perfectly, and they make another specifically for the PX4-sc, that works very well. Have both.

Nothing at all wrong with picking the springfield mil spec 1911. They're awesome. For a range gun .45 is slightly more expensive ammo-wise than a 9mm but it's not much of a disparity if you get ammo when it's on sale.
Taking the advice from Shipwreck's sticky for newbies, my wife and I have been frequenting a local gun shop that rents (Impact Guns in Ogden, UT). We've been there 3 times and each time we've shot a different caliber: 9mm, 40S&W, 45ACP.
SW99 - not impressed, the trigger felt terrible
Beretta 92fs - liked it, my wife's 2nd favorite... somwhat bulky
Some other gun I do not recall - obviously not very memorable
XD40 - did not like the way felt/shot
Sig P229 - felt great, but the rental gun was in poor shape and they're $$$
Some Taurus compact - very unpleasant to shoot
Springfield 1911 mil-spec - awesome
Kimber Ultra Carry - okay, somewhat unpleasant to shoot
Nighthawk Customs 1911 - didn't seem any better than the Springfield
The gun will be carried for protection while out hiking/backpacking, serve as backup home defense (shotgun is primary) and shot at the range for funsies and probably some practical pistol (I think my club does IDPA).
Based on our trying the different styles, we decided that we would prefer a "traditional" control setup with external hammer and safety and possibly a decocker... which eliminated the P99 a gun I had considered in my top 3 (I was not impressed with the SW99 anyway so it's probably just as well). Other than that, I liked a lot of the guns we fired that fit in that group. I figured my wife would only care for the 9mm's due to recoil and consequently I was already leaning towards a Beretta PX4. But she felt that there wasn't much of a difference in any of them other than the excessive muzzle flip of the 40S&W. Her favorite gun was the Springfield 1911. She shot it the most accurately, was comfortable with all the controls and just generally liked it. I was shocked as the 1911 probably would have been my #1 choice prior because of my affinity for Browning designs, classic looks and I like the 45ACP cartridge. So this all seems fine, it's my first choice it was her favorite... done deal. Well, I'm just wondering if it's the best choice. Part of me thinks we'd be better off buying a PX4 or similar 9mm and then we can get a 1911 down the road (though it would be because I wanted one... she'd say "we already have a gun, what do we need another..." you know how some ladies are ). The ammo is cheaper, the gun is cheaper, easier to clean (I gather from lurking here), more reliable (again I gather) and perhaps a better 1st gun (again, gathering). Then there is the idea of getting a .22 autoloader and doing a winter of indoor practical pistol and then hopefully being in a better position to make this decision, though getting a .22 now will stretch the budget a bit as we just moved and the gun purchase is targeted more for next spring. Okay, I'm done, sorry for the length... any pearls of wisdsom?
Nothing at all wrong with picking the springfield mil spec 1911. They're awesome. For a range gun .45 is slightly more expensive ammo-wise than a 9mm but it's not much of a disparity if you get ammo when it's on sale.
If you both like the 1911, go for it. The grip and trigger pull of a 1911 are hard to beat, parts and mags are easily available and fairly cheap. The 45acp is a great round, easy to shoot with minimal muzzle blast.
I just don't like the carrying the 1911 "cocked and locked". It makes me nervous. Maybe revisit a good used P-229. You should look around and try a P-225 or P-226 in 9mm.
Find a pistol that scores A (or B+) in these areas:
Ergonomics - (not bulky like the Beretta)
Price - you may have to get a good used gun
Reliability - check the track record on line
Caliber - if you are going to shoot a lot, go with 9mm or .40 S&W
Portability - for me, full sized 1911's are OUT
I use a Bersa Tunder .380 for the hiking bit, and have a SIG (used) P-225 for range fun. It sould also be used foe competition.
I think you have answered your own questions. A 1911/.45 will meet all your needs and they are fun to shoot. Remember one thing a 1911/.45 that is not carried in cock and lock is nothing but an expensive rock. You might consider some lessons at the local range or a NRA instructor. Good luck.
From what you said , you might want to check out the Ruger P-95 DC . This 9mm is a good gun, very dependable & accurate. I had one & sold it, Needed some fast cash at the time These are not pricey guns either so it might fit your budget . + down the road you can get yourself a 1911 & give the miss the Ruger. I think you will like it if you try it out.
Both of you like the feel and can shoot the 1911a1 then I would say that is the one to start with. You can pick the one that fits your budget best and with your lady liking it she will shoot it and want her own. I find the 1911 easy to clean and maintain. A .22 is a good plinker and very cheap to shoot so it will pay for itself by saving in ammo cost, it can also help with learning trigger control. Good luck and happy and above all Safe shooting.
The sig is out on account of she was uncomfortable with the controls and we'd both prefer a safety.
I glad the cocked & locked was brought up because I forgot about it. I had heard this before about 1911's and it made me a little uneasy. After handling and shooting one I feel a little more comfortable but it would still be a slight issue. What are the concerns with carrying a 1911 cocked & locked?
I think Mike is against a 1911 as a first handgun. Is it the gun or the cartridge that causes some to feel it's not for beginners?
I'm still kicking around the .22 idea as I'll need something to pass the time when I'm not skiing
Browning Hi-Power may be the best choice for you. 9 mm and simlar to 1911. Beautiful gun to boot.
(my personal favorite would be the 1911 tho)
Hey Shmeefer
Looking for your first hand gun can be hard to do.Sometimes it best to get 2 used gun to fill the needs.Im a realy big fan of .22 pistal for the range and plinking. Its easy and cheap to shoot a .22 , You can get 500 rounds for $11.00 and shoot for hours at the range. With a 45 you can get 50 rounds for $11.00 and shoot for 1/2 hour at the range.
Shmeefer the 45 1911 mil your thinking about getting is a great gun I like them alot.But if you and the wife are going to shoot it alot its going to $$$.
If you and your wife each shoot 100 rounds, at $22.00 a 100 rounds thats $44.00 plus range time.
If you and your wife shoot a .22 it would cost $5.00 plus range time.
90% of my range shooting is with my .22
100% of the time I carry my XD 9mm or my 380
Let us know what you get.
The 1911 has gotten a bad rap from those who tried to learn on worn out unmaintained military weapons, the scarery stories about what a 45 did to so-and-so. I have carried a 1911 since 1969 and learn to take care of it. Both of you like the feel and can hit the target with a 1911 then you will both use it. A good .22 can be had for around $300.00 ans ammo cost is very good. You have a life time to try all you can afford enjoy.
I carry either a 1911 in 9mm cocked & locked or a Kahr PM9 with a round chambered. I feel safer with a cocked & locked 1911 with two safeties on than I do with a SA or SA/DA pistol with no safety at all.
I agree with being uneasy carrying a 1911 cocked and locked. I used to carry a USP compact .45 DE-cocked and locked. Pricey, but give it a look! It's much more easy on the mind IMHO. Since, if you somehow accidentaly hit the safety lever to the off position, you have a LONG DA first trigger pull to help prevent accidents.
Of course I just picked up a 1911 for carry purposes. Go figure.

More bad news for Newcastle fans today as Ben Arfa is ruled out until the new year with his hamstring injury, and therefore he's going to miss at least four games. And with Ben Arfa playing last Monday night at Fulham, and scoring that terrific goal, we have to think he was brought back too early and before he was fully fit – and we are now playing the penalty for that premature return.
Ben Arfa – after scoring last Monday night at Fulham
Ben Arfa will miss at least the next four games at home to QPR and on the road at Manchester United and Arsenal and then at home to Everton, and if we cannot pick up points in those games we will in all likelihood slip even further down the league table when the new year rolls around.
The news is that he will be out now for three or four weeks, and that comes after he was almost in the squad yesterday, as it seemed as though everything was OK with his hamstring, so we'd like to learn more about what has happened to the mercurial French International.
After the Fulham game, in which he was easily our Man of the Match he has suffered a recurrence of the hamstring problem and missed the 3-1 loss to Manchester City on Saturday, and we have to believe he was not fully fit when he played last Monday night.
It's always a temptation to bring top players back before they are ready, especially when the team is in trouble, as we are now in the league, and Graeme Souness used to do that all the time, but it only leads to longer injuries – and this is hardly good news for Newcastle.
Alan Pardew said this today about the Frenchman:
"There is a danger he could tear that and if he did that he would be out for two or three months whereas if we do it the right way and be sensible about it, it may only be three weeks. And obviously that is the route we are going to take."
The facts are that Newcastle are going through one of their worst periods in their Premier League history having lost six of the last seven games, and there are some tough opposition coming up in the next four games, before we have a break for the FA Cup third round tie.
