A company might be small, however the efforts of operating it's not. Small company proprietors frequently put on many hats – financing, product, marketing, sales and customer care. While major companies have adequate assets to start a completely planned advertising campaign, small company marketing is frequently on a tight budget. Marketing a small company shouldn't be limited one funnel due to how big your company. Clients will invariably feel the three phases of the buying making decisions: 1) conscious of the items or services, 2) collecting enough information prior to the purchase, 3) and action of buying. The elements of effective small company marketing offers the information they require each and every stage of the buying process.
Achieve the Clients
Most smaller businesses target local market. Your company, obviously, ought to be for auction on local phone sites. Advertisements on local newspapers and flyers will take you business out of your local towns too. Disbursing business card printing is definitely probably the most popular and affordable methods for small company proprietors to promote or advertise their professional services and items. For example, some landscape designs companies distribute business card printing door-to-door in recently built towns. In case your services involves with artistic design (interior planning, website design etc.), color business card printing or custom business card printing are better. They reveal the artistic tastes from the designers.
Provide Details About Your Items and Services
Understanding of a service or product may be the start-point for clients to buy. They'll further research and compare similar services or items before they create contact for possible purchase. Now you require a sales brochure or a web site to present your company with product particulars, recommendations etc.. If card design constitutes a good first impression, sales brochure design and sales brochure printing (or guide printing if you like) work well for transforming leads into sales. Pamphlets that you simply distribute can get more attention should you enclose an individual note with personal touch introducing yourself as well as your company. An expert Site can serve as a web-based sales brochure to advertise your items or service to ensure that the prospects can find the details about your company all year round and 24 hrs each day. Affordable Website hosting costs less than $25-$50 annually.
Demand Action
Once clients have comprised of their mind to buy your services or items. The sales brochure or even the website should offer obvious direction for more actions. The benefit of an internet site over sales brochure is that you can to update as often as you would like, offer discount or incentives for clients who make purchase inside a certain time-frame. When they are ready, a transaction is simply a couple of clicks online powered with internet shopping buggies

Sine Qua Non Syrah Central Coast Labels 2007
Winemaker's Notes:
98+ points Robert Parker: The recently released 2007 Syrah Labels (89% Syrah, 7% Grenache, and 4% Viognier) comes from the 11 Confessions Estate Vineyard (57%), a small amount from the home estate vineyard in Oak View called Cumulus, and the rest from purchased fruit grown in the White Hawk Vineyard in Los Alamos and the Bien Nacido Vineyard in Santa Maria. A sensational effort, it is performing even better out of bottle than it did from barrel. An opaque purple color is accompanied by beautiful notes of charcoal, acacia flowers, blueberries, blackberries, graphite, and subtle smoke. With great fruit, tremendous texture, and full-bodied power, it is locked and loaded. This cuvee should provide great drinking in addition to some provocative discussions over the next 10-15 years.

Kissing Under the Berries
Mistletoe is also said to be a sexual symbol, because of the consistency and color of the berry juice as well as the belief that it is an aphrodisiac, the "soul" of the oak from which it grows. The origin of the tradition of kissing under the mistletoe is vague. However, the tradition may have stemmed from either the Viking association of the plant with Frigga (the goddess of love) or from the ancient belief that mistletoe was related to fertility. Another explanation for the tradition is that it is derived from the festival of Saturnalia, a popular mid-December celebration in ancient Rome [source: BBC.com].
The correct mistletoe etiquette is for the man to remove one berry when he kisses a woman. When all the berries are gone, there's no more kissing permitted underneath that plant.
One legend states that a couple who kisses underneath mistletoe will have good luck, but a couple neglecting to perform the ritual will have bad luck. Specifically, it is believed that a couple kissing under the mistletoe ensure themselves of marriage and a long, happy life, while an unmarried woman not kissed under the mistletoe will remain single for another year.
Maidens may place a sprig of the plant under their pillow at night in the same manner a child places his or her lost tooth in anticipation of a visit from the Tooth Fairy. Instead of exchanging teeth for money, however, the sprig of Mistletoe allows women to dream of their Prince Charming. Burning a mistletoe plant is also thought to foretell a woman's marital bliss, or lack thereof. A mistletoe that burns steadily prophesies a healthy marriage, while fickle flames may doom a woman to an ill-suited partner.
While mistletoe is widely viewed as a symbol of love and fertility, it's also representative of peace. Ancient tales tell of enemies who encounter each other underneath trees bearing mistletoe. The enemies lay down their arms, embrace, and agree to a truce until the next day [source: Perry]. This act of goodwill is yet another possibility for why we kiss under mistletoe: abstaining from violence and exchanging greetings under the plant may have prompted the custom of kissing.

Minimalist, maximalist, barefoot, cushioning?
I recently had the opportunity whilst waiting for it to stop snowing in London, to listen to a podcast.
In part, running footwear was discussed, and in particular, the discussion focused on the effect of cushioned footwear on running related parameters like running economy. Inevitably the discussion covered minimalism and barefoot, which were widely considered to be of little value (in itself something that needs more debate), but then, attention turned to "maximalism", specifically Hokas, and the effect of cushioning.
So, there are a couple of things I would like to clarify:
- As a paradigm, the concept that cushioning in athletic footwear can or will prevent injury is disproved
- This is because it has been repeatedly shown that impact loading, particularly the focus on reducing the first impact peak Fz1, has no measurable effect on injury
- It would make sense that as one runs faster, and impact loads are higher, injury should increase - it does not
- Even when cushioning is increased, there appears to be no effect on injury
- and.. we have known since at least 1977 that increasing midsole hardness is likely to reduce the magnitude of the first impact peak
- This is probably due to the automatic modulation of lower limb kinematics like subtalar joint pronation and knee flexion and reduced lower limb stiffness with a harder midsole
- So, the importance of cushioning probably lies in not much more than simple comfort, which is important, but many other things must be considered.
I struggle with the conclusions drawn from the podcast in relation to cushioning and shoes like the Hoka. For a start, the fact that the Hoka has a significant rocker was not even mentioned, and it is highly likely that this is a more important feature of the Hoka shoe than its weight, midsole stack or drop.

Dis 5 county councilman does bidding for influential Daytona insiders who comprised 80% of his campaign funding while dissing media asking about transparency
DEBARY, Fla. -- The newest member of the Volusia County Council has already shown his true colors when it comes to transparency and the opportunity to stand tall for under-paid Sheriff's deputies and sergeants who were negotiating with management in good faith last month when the county declared an impasse -- walked away from talks.
And the church minister has shown by his own hypocritical actions that he's all about himself and not those he's supposed to show empathy and leadership for, including the 250 Volusia County deputies and sergeants, who along with their union, Teamsters 385, were jilted at the bargaining table by the county, which by declaring an impasse has stalled negotiations with funding reserves depleted.
Consider the following expenses the County Council committed to in 2014 and early in the new year:
• The $20 million handout to the billionaire France family for the "One Daytona" retail-entertainment village planned across the street from Daytona International Speedway.
• The County Council's politically-motivated Waverly Media investigation, which includes $121,000-plus for investigator Jon Kaney and perhaps several hundred thousand more in damages a circuit judge is expected to order the county to award to Ted Doran in response to the illegal subpoenas Kaney tried to compel him and others to consent to when he had no legal standing to do so.
• Paying higher than fair-market value for nearly half a dozen parcels of land for off-beach parking at a cost of several million while also raising beach tolls.
• Committed spending at a cost of tens of millions being lost from the general fund for years to come for Sun Rail, approval of three new CRA districts for Orange City, Edgewater and New Smyrna Beach as well as severe cost overruns with the Ocean Center.
Lowry's self-serving interests have not gone unnoticed. Just ask Volusia County Sheriff's deputies and sergeants.
"You can't fault the sheep for being led astray by the herder," veteran k-9 Deputy Josh Vedder told Headline Surfer® in response to Lowry using the groundbreaking as his self-promotion pulpit. "All you can do is hope the sheep are intelligent enough to recognize the herder might actually be a wolf."
Lowry has said nothing about the county declaring an impasse last month with the Teamsters union representing 200-plus deputies and sergeants like Vedder looking for decent pay. The VCSO pay is less than that of 150 agencies throughout the Sunshine State.
Then last month, the county's management table declared an impasse -- meaning they've formally walked away from the bargaining table and won' return until a third party -- a negotiator -- is brought in to help the two sides work out their differences.
An impasse can take up to two years, and though pay increases are often retroactive, the rank-and-file employees will have to make do with nothing in the interim.
An impasse is often used as a stall tactic deployed by government to put off pay increases its administrators and elected politicians know are inevitable and may cost taxpayers more in the long run, but buys them time.
Lowry on Thursday posted four large photos of the groundbreaking for new a Sheriff's district station in DeBary on his Facebook page "Fred Lowry Volusia County 5," and wrote of the event earlier in the day: "Congratulations DeBary! We broke ground for a new VCSO Administration Building. Cudos [sic] to Sheriff Ben, Capn[sic] Ray and all DeBary council and Mayor Clint! Job well done!!"
Lowry, however, failed to mention that he had absolutely nothing to do with the groundbreaking. He did not participate in a vote no was he involved directly or indirectly in the funding of the new facility.
The groundbreaking would have been the perfect opportunity for Lowry to stand tall for law enforcers, but instead he was all about management, referring to the sheriff and district captain, other politicians and of douse, himself.
Lowry, elected in November, has not only demonstrated he's all about himself, but on his very first day on the job showed he's anything, but transparent.
Headline Surfer® posted a comment on the his Facebook page during the overnight hours before his swearing-in ceremony earlier this month simply asking him to explain how he could demonstrate transparency as an elected leader when 80 percent of his campaign funding came from influential Daytona Beach insiders insiders, despite the fact his district 5 is on the other side of the county comprised of Deltona, DeBary, Enterprise and part of Osteen.
And this is how Lowry responded, a couple of hours after his first day on the dais: "I can see that you are not interested in sincere talking but more about spewing your venom that I have seen. I tried to be cordial and open to you as much as I could and this is the second time you have been accusatory and ugly. If you want to talk with me any further it will not be on my timelines for you to use."
Lowry continued in his rant: "You can contact me thru my county office like anyone else." Headline Surfer® is not certain what Lowry is referring to as an initial confrontation in stating "this is the second time you have been accusatory and ugly."
Lowry should look in the miror and practice what he preaches.

'Twas the night before Gingermas, and out on the trail
The finish line awaited with local craft ale.
The RD was sleepless, in the crisp autumn air
In hopes the lead pack soon would be there.
The midpackers were scattered all along the course,
While the elites sped along as quick as a horse.
And my pacer with his Suunto, and I with my Garmin,
Were hours behind coach Ian Sharman.
Long ago I had bonked, and my face lost its smile;
Barely half done with the one hundred miles.
Food rations were low - just a handful of pretzels -
As the light slowly faded from the bulb in my Petzl.
I felt so light headed, I had nothing left,
And was ready to drop - my first DNF.
We wandered forever and could not find the path.
I'd never make the cutoff - just do the math!
I sat silently on a stump because all hope was lost.
I just wanted to quit, never mind the cost,
When in the woods behind me there arose a loud rustle,
I sprang to my feet and prepared for a tussle.
The moon on the breast of the fresh-fallen leaves
Gave a luster of midday to the ground 'tween the trees.
When what to my much addled mind should appear,
But a red headed runner with a case full of beer!
His wore a "GRL" cap, and his legs were so limber,
I knew in a moment it must be The Ginger.
"I'm hallucinating," I thought. "I must need more rest."
When in ran his posse of co-hosts and guests.
Swifter than gazelles his friends they all came,
He clapped and he shouted, and introduced them by name:
"It's Yassine, Gary Robbins, and Sally McRae!
And here's Vargo, and Varner, The Gearist, and Sage!"
Last but not least in came Mile Long Legs,
(Sipping local craft brew, not that crap from a keg.)
"We found a new crew," my pacer said with a chuckle,
And right then I knew I'd earn a silver belt buckle.
Then out into the clearing that ginger he ran,
Trotted right up beside me and stuck out his hand.
"What is up everybody? The Ginger Runner here.
But we're not airing this live, so nobody fear."
On his feet he wore Altras - heel-toe drop was zero,
And wielded in one hand a black Go Pro Hero.
A drop bag of supplies he had flung on his back
And looked like a peddler just opening his pack.
"Take these," he told me. "Calories you can use."
And offered a bag full of S-Caps and GUs.
"Here's your own GRL buff" the ginger said with a grin,
As he took a long swig from his flask of Tailwind.
His friends shared with us their brew - some dark IPA,
While the bulbs from their headlamps turned night into day.
Now I've oft heard it said a ginger has no soul,
But I knew at once that was folklore of old.
Bright and multi-hued was the cap on his head,
While the beard on his chin was like a flame blazing red.
He wore a dark long-sleeved shirt - sweat wicking, not flannel -
Its breast bore the logo for his own Youtube channel.
His hydration vest from Ultimate Direction
Had grey and red shades that brought out his complexion.
He gave us fresh AA batteries from out of his pocket,
Then led us on course and told us "Go rock it!"
His demeanor reminded me to not be a quitter,
So I promised I'd follow on Facebook and Twitter.
I got one last gift - my own Tailwind bottle!
Now I felt I could sprint to the finish full throttle!
He zipped up his pack, and to his team gave a yelp,
Then I thanked him profusely for all of his help.
Gingerclaus started running off into the night,
But I heard him exclaim ere he ran out of sight -
"Now get on with your race, I'll see you next year;
Merry Gingermas to all, and don't forget... train, race, beer!"
I am sometimes asked what I think about while out for several hours on a long run. Well here's your answer! This poem more or less wrote itself in my head during a series of training runs for Virgil Crest this past summer. Hopefully fans of Ginger Runner Live will find this entertaining. For the rest of you, check out the show, streamed live on Youtube every Monday night.
Enjoy watching Gary Robbins read "Twas The Night Before Gingermas" to his baby boy in the opening to Gingermas Live 2015. (The video is long but his reading is right at the beginning.) Merry Gingermas to all and to all a good night!

Let's keep this strictly to the apron and not other loose skin. From everything I've read medicare (in some fashion) covers you for the apron if your surgeon can advise it will cause health issues.Can anyone confirm if you can have the apron removed via the public system under medicare, or if medicare simply covers the gap if you have PHI?

In the halcyon days of the advertising business, when the economy was stable and we had yet to be swallowed up in the global competitive frenzy, agencies actually had the luxury of charging reasonable markups on services, and could count on traditional media commissions to build agency profits. Clients, meanwhile, actually had fat marketing budgets and seldom parsed a bill except to see that you were close to estimate. Pardon us while we wax nostalgic…
Okay, done. Welcome to the modern era of agency pricing, in which agencies are far too likely to accept the dictates of penny-pinching clients regarding what they are willing to pay.
"This is what we need to accomplish by this date… so get busy," they say aggressively. "And by the way, we won't spend one penny over X dollars. When can you have it ready?"
Quite frankly, if you are allowing clients to dictate agency pricing (never mind the schedule and scope), you need to rethink your positioning and start looking for clients who are interested in the value you can provide, not just how much a job "costs."
Time and Materials, or Value?
Too many agencies set prices by calculating their out-of-pocket costs and trying to add a little profit on top. Basically, when your time-and-materials cost is your ceiling, clients perceive any add-on as "padding." Markups, once a mainstay of agency profits, are barely tolerated by today's clients. This is why agencies need to have a sound strategy for setting prices based on value, not just on hours spent and materials used.
Here's the best tip we can offer about pricing: Your costs for producing a project—what you need to be paid to break even—should be the floor of your price. You add your X or "value" factor on top to get the estimated price you present to the client. But how do you calculate that "X" value?
The X Factor
What are you worth? Does your agency claim a particular position or specialty that puts you in demand? What is it your agency can do that makes your work "X" amount of dollars more valuable than your break-even costs? That perception of authority and expertise is worth something to paying clients.
The ability to add this "X" factor to agency pricing depends on how good you are at self-promotion and building a reputation for expertise. You can't expect clients to blithely accept your claim of expert status; you must demonstrate it. Make sure you publish advice and insights on the agency blog or in a regular e-zine. Join industry communities to discuss important challenges and developments. Share relevant content with trade publications/sites. Attend industry events and get to know the key players and influencers. Most important, publish success stories via online case studies and press releases.
The more trustworthy your claims of expertise become, the less your clients will question your value pricing. Make your value clear.
Strategy, Not Execution
Do you have a seat at the planning table? Unless your agency gets to sit in on planning and strategy meetings, advise on strategy or at least be allowed to read the client's plan, you probably will not be allowed to charge based on value. Your clients still see you as a vendor, not a strategic partner. Vendors have to settle for wages and fees. That's why we keep preaching the gospel of becoming a strategic marketing partner, not just a business that churns out ads.
Always focus on strategy when talking price. What can you bring to the table that will help the client achieve their goals? Talk about your depth of industry experience. Be prepared to intelligently discuss competitive situations, the larger industry landscape and potential opportunities. Share your ideas for tactics and creative not as a gung-ho art director, but as a businessperson with eyes on the very business objectives the client holds dear.
What Is It Worth to the Client?
The next time a client comes to you with a project, start your pricing discussion by asking smart questions. What is the client looking to achieve? Define the objectives in clear and measurable terms. If the goal is to create an uptick in site traffic, how much of an uptick? What is that increase in traffic worth to them? What is a reasonable percentage to spend against achieving that increase? Eight percent? Ten percent? That's your price, not what it "costs." Agency pricing shouldn't really be about hours, but about investment to achieve a defined return on objective (ROO). Guide clients to clarify their goals, then you'll know how to determine your value price.
Your "X" factor may change over time (ideally, increasing), but right now, you can retake control of pricing by understanding how to talk pricing. Be prepared to firmly put your foot down if the client tries to tell you what they will pay. Train account service people not to unquestioningly accept client price demands, and how to do that without creating client friction. Work with your accounting staff and production manager on how to add the "X" factor into estimates, and ensure invoices are correctly prepared. And work hard to be the valuable partner your clients need… and will willingly reward.

In recent months I have shopped this store and others in S.C. to find a lot of the shelves half empty.
When I ask an employee about this problem I get some excuse like 'We had a sale and haven't had a chance to restock. Another is we are taking inventory to see what we need. I'm tired of going to a store to shop and can't find half of what I want. This is an ongoing problem and I'm ready to change store chains, maybe K-mart.
The reason I shopprd Walmart in the first place was because the prices were lower than other stores, but not anymore. As high as Bi-Lo is, I can find a lot of the same products as low or lower priced at Bi-Lo.
So why go to Walmart? At least the shelves are full at Bi-Lo.
like the others said, it sometimes depends on the vendors and manufacturers. and good luck shopping at Kmart.
good luck shopping at K-Mart. See how that goes for you-lol
Different vendors. I work for a Walmart in southwest Florida.
This is snow bird season. Many items are not stocked as they are unavailable from either the warehouse or the manufacturer. I order every day, but that does not mean it will come immediately. Items in the warehouse come in about 3 days.
Vendor items come in about 2 weeks.
And no we do not buy massive quantities. We have no where to store such overstock of every item we sell.
And even Kmart is out of stuff sometimes.
You can't tell me this happens consistantly. There are times that it does happen.
Sometimes a truck doesn't arrive when it should, sometimes there has been a sale, and sometimes it even happens if you wait until the last minute to get something that you need and there has been a run on it, by people that plan ahead. I normally do plan ahead, but there has been times that I have had to wait until the last minute, and then I find my choices to be severely limited.
Have fun in KMart. I haven't set foot in either of the KMarts here for more than five years, because they are extremely cluttered, and since uniting with Sears their prices have gotten really high.

London (PRWEB) May 19, 2006
London & Capital, a boutique, UK-based asset manager, today announced that MarketGrader, the first merit-based US equity index available in the UK, has returned 181.5% over the past three years. The rules-based, quant-driven index, which re-evaluates more than 5,700 US equities every quarter to select a basket of 40 stocks, has consistently outperformed the NASDAQ, the S&P 500 and Dow Jones equities indices. During the past 12 months, MarketGrader has returned 46.5% – more than double that of the highest return of the key US indices.
The computer-generated MarketGrader index uses quantitative filters based around four key variables (growth, value, profit and cash flow) to constantly re-evaluate US equities in line with companies' quarterly results. Since its launch in early 2003, the index has trounced the performance of the NASDAQ, the S&P 500 and Dow Jones, which have returned 62.7%, 45.5% and 36.5% respectively for the same three year period. Against MarketGrader's 46.5% over the past twelve months, the NASDAQ has returned 19.6%, the S&P 500 12.6% and Dow Jones 10.7%.
Unlike standard indices, MarketGrader rebalances every quarter to ensure the changing circumstances of companies are constantly considered, and to encourage the prospect of alpha being repeated.
Ashok Shah, London & Capital's Chief Investment Officer, comments: "MarketGrader does more than follow the market. This enhanced index undergoes a pronounced self- correction every quarter, ensuring that holdings which have experienced a particularly strong price upside in the preceding quarter are likely to be disposed of, in favour of undervalued opportunities. This is in marked contrast to the S&P and Dow Jones, which do not select stocks on the basis of fundamentals. Using quantitative filters based around key variables, MarketGrader introduces an 'actively-managed' quality to an otherwise passive competitive landscape."
Shah continues: "MarketGrader's performance over the past twelve months speaks for itself. However, it has also demonstrated its ability to deliver strong returns in a range of market environments, with a five-year period of back testing producing figures that consistently outperformed the key US equity indices. In the current climate, balanced portfolios are reaping the benefits of investment in equities. MarketGrader's proven track record makes it an obvious choice when building equities into a portfolio."
Through MarketGrader, all companies are given a short-term grade between zero and 100, based upon an evaluation of key parameters. Every quarter, following earnings submissions, MarketGrader re-assesses more than 5,700 companies and adjusts the basket's contents as appropriate. Secondary filters ensure that holdings are diversified across key sectors. Typically, at least half the index's holdings change every quarter.
London & Capital, which has USD 2 billion under management, has offered institutional clients access to the MarketGrader Index via a European medium-term Note since February 2005. The company launched a Fund in November 2005, opening up the index to high net worth investors.

General News of Saturday, 30 September 2017
Source: ultimatefmonline.com
Authorities at the University of Cape Coast (UCC) have stepped up efforts aimed at ending sexual harassment of all forms on the campus.
The move, according to authorities, is to create a healthy and non intimidating environment for teaching and learning.
Students have been urged to resort to the newly constituted Sexual Harassment Committee for redress when they are harassed sexually as fairness will be ensured in all deliberations.
The Chairman of the Sexual Harassment Committee Mr. Constantine Kudedzi has indeed appealed to lecturers and students to guard against acts which will potentially amount to harassment thereby making teaching and learning process stressful for victims.
He urged students and lecturers to keep themselves abreast with the revised policy on Sexual Harassment so they don't fall victim, assuring that the university will apply the necessary sanctions when one is found guilty.
The committee, he added will discharge its work with utmost diligence and fairness and therefore urged the university community to make use of it as well as other laid down structures at the various departments and halls aimed at eradicating sexual harassment of all forms at the university.

John Calipari
Boston U. – 65
Kentucky - 89
Q. What did you think about the way Devin played in the second half especially?
JOHN CALIPARI: Well, he had seven assists. A bunch of them were in the zone where we were throwing that lob, but he shot the ball pretty well. It's nice to see when he makes shots, we become a little bit different. But we struggled. Again, I thought Boston U came in and played as the aggressor and played exactly how people are going to play us. They're going to try to spread the court, try to beat us on the bounce, make sure their 4 man can spread out on the floor so they don't have two guys standing next to the goal and try to control the pace and try to beat somebody on a dribble or shoot a three, hope we foul them. We had guys that didn't move their feet today instead of squaring guys off, and then down on the other side they're going to sag in a zone or they're going to man‑to‑man and they're going to sag. That's how they're going to play us. We did not fight in the first half. I was disappointed for Dom and Derek, because I really wanted them to get in this rotation and get their opportunity because Alex was out, but at the end of the day I just tried to finish out and we played units but I ended up playing like nine guys.
Q. Is this what you talked about Tuesday when you started out by saying, we're not that good?
JOHN CALIPARI: Well, what we looked at today, we only out‑rebounded them by five. But again, here's the good stuff: You shoot 58 percent, you have 24 assists and 13 turnovers, you win by 24 and we're all upset. So it probably means we're not bad.
But you didn't see the energy you saw the last game. You didn't see the fight and the energy. Well, let me just explain to you, these guys are not computers, they're not machines, they're human beings, and I expected a letdown. I was just hoping it wouldn't be too bad. That was a high‑energy game what you just came off of, and then you're playing a team that shoots the three well, and they did, 37 percent, made their free throws, 90 percent, and got beat by 24.
Q. What did you see from Dominique? You said you hoped he'd get some more time.
JOHN CALIPARI: I thought he was okay. He was okay. We just weren't as dominating. I wanted him to really smother the ball. Again, he hadn't been playing in the games and I think it affects those guys, he and Derek, it's hard. Derek walked in and you can tell, looked a little lost. And it's not his fault. And that is why I wanted us to play well so they could get into a flow and they can go show who they are because they're both very good players.
Q. How do you assess how the offense went against that zone?
JOHN CALIPARI: Well, we didn't fight in the first half. We should have been able to throw it and post the ball like we did in the second half, and guys were stepping off the block, wouldn't fight back, would jump in the air and get pushed out. He's pushing me. What? Push back. And we just did not fight for position.
We didn't drive it enough. We didn't get in gaps, but it's hard when they're really backing up like they were. But again, we shoot 58 percent and 38 from the three, I would take that every game. I'd wake up after the game is over.
Q. You said the other night that you wanted Aaron to have more opportunities on the offensive end. He finished with 15 shots tonight.
JOHN CALIPARI: Well, he played 25 minutes so he played three more minutes, so if you look at playing three or four more minutes, it's probably like he took 12 or 13 shots, but the biggest thing is he had four assists and no turnovers. I mean, that's huge.
Again, I thought Dakari played pretty well, but 3 for 8 from the line is not getting it done, and he is so much better, but you can't‑‑ you've got to make free throws or I can't have you in at the end. Carlos struggled, so he's played well one game, struggled one game, played well one game, struggled one game. That's about where he's going right now. But I think he'll be fine. And Trey didn't play‑‑ what they did to Trey is they went right at him, but again, two assists, and it's what we thought. They're going to put a smaller 3 man against he and Alex and try to beat them on the dribble. It's not brain surgery. That's how they're going to play, and I told those two guys, you've got to guard, and if they play zone you've got to make sure they're playing you.
Q. You just mentioned they went at Trey. They were not intimidated, I guess, for lack of a better term. How much does that help your team when the other guys come in and play hard and take it right to you?
JOHN CALIPARI: Well, every guy that comes in here, we all know they're excited about playing in this building, they're excited about playing Kentucky. That team was giddy before the game and they played that way. They never stopped. They weren't afraid, they battled, they weren't backing down. If we pushed, they pushed back. The first half they pushed and we didn't push back.  We were like, why are you pushing, don't you know who I am? It's like, guys, every team we play is going to come in and it's going to be a dogfight. You either want to play or you don't I'm not playing you. I'll let the other group play. But we will see.
Q. How do you feel like kept Blaise off the 2‑3 zone with a backside lock?
JOHN CALIPARI: Well, it was something we put in yesterday just to say they're going to sag so I want to show you some things we can do and then we went back and did it like seven, eight times because they struggled with it. I think Joe will go back and look at that and make sure that doesn't hurt them, but there's a couple ways you can hurt them with that cut. You can throw it right to the middle, which we did, to Dakari. You don't have to foul. If they fight the screen you throw it right in the middle of the zone, right dead middle which Dakari got it, but like I said, we still had a lot of guys do a lot of good stuff. It's just we all expect this team to be world beaters every night out, and let me say, folks, they're not going to be, and there are games I'm going to have to drag them across the finish line. They're normal 19, 18, 20‑year old kids. Something happened in class today, I don't know.
Q. Devin had six assists tonight‑‑
JOHN CALIPARI:Â Seven assists.
Q. Excuse me. Do you feel like that's something you're trying to do more on the offense, get him the ball?
JOHN CALIPARI: Again, if you look at it, I think three or four of them were on lobs. So I took him out at one point, I think he had Aaron ahead of him and he kept dribbling, and I just took him out. We don't make that play. If a guy is ahead of you, you throw it to him. We're still ‑‑ there's things that are unacceptable that these young kids don't know yet. Karl Towns, had to take him out, didn't square off a pick‑and‑roll and the guy drove around him. Trey was getting beat on the bounce, and again, there's all kinds of things you can do, don't let the guy catch the ball. He's too good for to you guard off the bounce. Well then I'm not letting him catch it. That's a pretty simple one. Or you can back up and all of a sudden you're going at him, but it's all stuff that he's going to learn, and that's the greatest thing. Trey Lyles is one of our best players. Believe me when I tell you, he is one of our best players. He and Karl are still learning. So is Devin. How about the cross‑court zone pass? It was a look away. He looked this way and threw it cross court. The problem is he threw it to the other team, the red team. Wait a minute.
So they're still learning, they're going to do stuff like that.
Q. Devin made a shot the other night against Kansas and you were kind of caught on camera with a look of relief on your face. How much do you think he needed one? How much more relaxed has he been since he got one to go down?
JOHN CALIPARI: Well, let's just talk about the stage these guys were on a couple days ago. Pretty big stage. I mean, pretty big stage in a crazy game, in a game that mattered and two top‑five teams, and here they are, freshmen, and you throw them in there and act like you should be fine. We expect these kids to do things beyond the norm, but that's why you come here. You're not afraid of that challenge.
You're also not afraid that every team is going to come in like Buffalo did, like Boston did, like these next games. Wait until you see the Providence team. Wait until you see Texas. They're coming in this building with one thought: We're winning. And you've got to be ready to fight and battle.
Q. You wouldn't be concerned if there weren't some bumps in the road because you want a November team, not a March team right now?
JOHN CALIPARI: Right. That's why if you can tell, I'm like, good. We weren't very good today and what we looked like was a November team. The Kansas game on defense, we looked like a January team. On offense, we looked like a November team. Today we looked like November. And it's what you have.
But again, you've got to give Boston U credit because of how they played. They were the aggressor. They controlled tempo. They played exactly‑‑ I told my‑‑ they called Buffalo, you don't think he called Buffalo? Spread him out, beat him on the bounce, control the tempo, sag back. I mean, you've got to make threes anyway. If you make them, you may beat them. If you don't make them, it doesn't matter, you weren't winning anyway. That's how people are going to play us, and we've just got to be prepared for it.

FRANKLIN -- There were few new details released by police Tuesday about the burglary at the Franklin Mineral Museum, but a local resident has posted a reward of $1,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for the theft.
FRANKLIN — There were few new details released by police Tuesday about the burglary at the Franklin Mineral Museum, but a local resident has posted a reward of $1,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for the theft.
"I don't like the idea of someone stealing from a local museum," said Marc Indri, a Hampton resident whose company, American Fire and Safety, covers all of northern New Jersey, including Sussex County.
Indri also has a personal interest because he is a longtime friend of Franklin resident Phil Crabb, a life member and former vice president of the museum.
"I coached his kid in baseball for several years," Indri said late Tuesday night. "I know how much that museum means to Phil and it kinda makes me mad."
More than $30,000 in precious stones, gems and minerals was stolen early Monday from the Franklin Mineral Museum by burglars who apparently entered through a back window. One of the thieves apparently suffered a deep cut during the burglary, leaving numerous bloodstains on the museum floor.
Any tips or information on the crime can be made to Franklin Police Detective Daniel Flora at 862-273-5170 or Detective Sgt. Nevin Mattessich at 862-268-1401. Callers can remain anonymous.
The museum was closed Tuesday and a note taped to the front door noted it would be closed at least today as well.
On Tuesday, Mattessich acted as spokesperson for both the police department and the museum, which said it would have no additional comments.
Mattessich confirmed that a department patrol responded to the museum at 4:40 a.m. Monday when notified that an alarm was going off at the museum on Evans Street.
The officer responding to the alarm "followed procedure. He did what he should have," the detective said.
That included walking the perimeter and making observations of easy access points. Procedure includes, but is not limited to things like checking to see that doors are locked and there are no obvious signs of forced entry.
The front of the museum has a single main door entry with glass sidewalls and no other windows. The backyard of the museum, which was later to be found to be the apparent access point, is at a lower level, through a wooded area, with access, which is a sharp drop-off from the top level, protected by a chain-link fence that is topped by barbed wire.
It wasn't until museum staff arrived shortly before 9:30 a.m. Monday that the damage and theft from the building was discovered.
As police responded, they discovered the back window had been used to apparently enter and leave the building. A piece of rope was found hanging outside and a ladder leaning against the back wall.
To get access to the window would mean walking through a wooded area that was once part of an active mining operation or climbing over the wire-topped fence.
Mattessich declined to say more than Monday's note that the ladder was found on the property and said detectives were investigating whether the injury to the thief was caused by going over the fence.
He also declined to speculate whether there was one or more people who entered the building and if they would be considered professional or amateur thieves, which might help explain a motive.
While the monetary value of the stolen minerals is not great in the world of gem thefts, these were museum pieces and well-documented.
The detective said lists and photographs are being circulated in the law enforcement and collecting fields that deal with rare minerals. He said at some point, the full list and accompanying photos may be released to the general public.
People with connections to the museum and who know the specifics of what was taken said it seems the thieves went for "glitter and sparkle" rather than monetary value.
Not all Franklin minerals, which include those from Sterling Hill Mine in Ogdensburg, fluoresce, but those that do shine under ultraviolet light almost exclusively come from those two mine complexes.
In response to a question about the alarm call, the detective noted the museum, like most businesses with alarm systems, does have false alarms.
He wouldn't say if the alarm system is based on infrared, sound or motion. "I don't want to give much information about their security system," was his response.
Blood collected at the scene has been sent to the state police laboratory. There it will go through the routine evidence gathering process, such as DNA, race, ethnicity, diseases and other traits that can identify one from a billion other samples.
However, Mattessich noted, there needs to be a sample in the police system to get a match.
That match could already exist in the database or come from a new sample from a possible suspect.
He also said the public can help by being alert for anyone who has an unusual amount of precious stones or gems or unusual minerals new to their collection or for sale.
In response to one of the New York City television reporters who were on the scene Tuesday, Mattessich said the city's thriving jewelry district might be a place where a thief would look to sell the items stolen from Franklin.
However small the borough may be, its reputation in the mineralogical world is among the highest.
In fact, a scientific paper published earlier this year made an argument that Franklin's vast array of minerals -- 275 have been identified as unique to the Franklin/Sterling mines area -- could be the best site in the world.
The mines closed down as commercial ventures in the 1960s. Franklin Mine was abandoned and some of its shafts and rooms have collapsed.
Sterling Mine continues as a working mining museum, occasionally selling ore and large minerals as special orders.
The Franklin Mineral Museum is a not-for-profit organization, which first opened its doors to the public in October, 1965. Part of its complex on Evans Street is part of the former New Jersey Zinc Co. operation.

Mourinho confirms Pogba will start for Manchester United against West Ham
Manager says player has trained well during the week and will start

José Mourinho has said Paul Pogba will start Manchester United's game at West Ham United, with the manager clear that although "no player is bigger" than the club, the midfielder deserves selection after training well since being stripped of the vice-captaincy.
Mourinho informed Pogba on Tuesday that he would not captain United again and the following day the pair were involved in a training-ground incident regarding the player's posting of an Instagram story. The manager was concerned that the video featuring Pogba laughing came after the Carabao Cup defeat by Derby County on Tuesday.
This proved not to be the case and Mourinho is content to select Pogba on at West Ham.
"He's a player like the others; no player is bigger than the club and if I'm happy with his work he plays, if I'm not happy he doesn't play," he said. "I'm happy with his work this week, really happy – Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday especially, because today was not so significant – but he trained really well.
"The team needs good players, players with personality to play; he has and he plays tomorrow. Manchester United is bigger than anyone and I have to defend that."
Mourinho bridled when asked whether he might have had the conversation with Pogba away from the cameras that were filming the session on Wednesday because it proved disruptive.
"Disruptive? I think for you it was amazing because you made a story, an incredible story out of 15 minutes of an open training session. I have to train as always – I don't care about the cameras. What confrontation?"
Mourinho then joked that it was down to his media officer. "Maybe it is your fault," he said. "What happened the other day happens many days; conversations with players I have many times . . . Loud criticism, loud instruction, happens every day. Coaching is about that but you make story about it. So I'm happy the rules are only 15 minutes once a month [for filming training]."
He declined to reveal what was said between him and Pogba but characterised their relationship as a normal manager-player one. "Exactly that. I think Paul told [said the same] in one of his appearances in the famous mixed zone and he is correct. It is a good relation: player manager."
Regarding Pogba and his not being captain again, Mourinho said: "Paul and the other players in the squad know in detail the reason why myself and my coaching staff, we decide to do that. I always analyse a player as a player and when a player is captain I analyse the player by the player and the captain perspective.
"After weeks of analysing and changing opinions with my coaching staff we made the decision Paul is just a player and not a captain." - Guardian

You can use this mount to to mount Bosch EV14 3/4 height injectors.
Supplied with Special Oring to suit the Injector Mount.
Stainless Steel M5 Mounting Screws pre-drilled to receive lock-wire for added security.
NOTE: Fuel Rail Not Included
NOTE: Must be used with Sequential ECU to ensure there is no *Fuel Reversion (Standoff).
* Although the air column entering your engine should only move towards each cylinder, there is a short period of time when the column comes to a stop, and then on some engine combinations, reverses direction for a very short period of time.
Fuel Reversion or Standoff, may occur during the time when the air column is moving away from the cylinder.
If the injector is open during this period, any fuel leaving the injector nozzle will be pushed away from the cylinder. If you have injectors sitting above the Ram Tube, and Reversion or Standoff occurs, this fuel may then be deposited on the inside of an air box, or anywhere nearby around the engine bay.
This is definitely a bad situation.
To ensure this does not occur, injectors placed outside of intake runners must only be opened as the air is being drawn into the engine. To achieve this effect, you must use an ECU capable of pulsing injectors placed outside of your intake runners sequentially.
