CREW Statement Following TN Medical Board's Resolution of Complaint Against Rep. Scott DesJarlais
Washington, D.C. — Today, the Tennessee Board of Medical Examiners fined Rep. Scott DesJarlais (R-TN) $500 and issued a reprimand as a result of two complaints filed by Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) alleging that the congressman/doctor had engaged in sexual relationships with two of his patients.
In response to the piteous penalty of $250 per patient, CREW Executive Director Melanie Sloan stated, "There are more expensive traffic tickets. Tennessee authorities apparently believe sexual exploitation of women is less serious than speeding."
CREW filed two complaints against Rep. DesJarlais last fall after it was revealed he had affairs with women he had been treating. Tennessee law strictly prohibits such conduct and possible penalties include restrictions on a physician's practice, suspension, and revocation of his medical license. No such penalties were imposed on Rep. DesJarlais.
Yesterday, during a House Oversight Committee hearing regarding the IRS scandal, Rep. DesJarlais stated, "What people want to know is who is going to be held accountable and how they're going to be held accountable."
Sloan continued, "Accountability begins at home. As we predicted when we filed our complaints, despite the fact that Rep. DesJarlais's conduct is a clear-cut violation of Tennessee law, state authorities gave him a pass. Let's hope the Office of Congressional Ethics, which is also considering a complaint against Rep. DesJarlais, takes a dimmer view of his outrageous misconduct."
Ironically, while offering up this slap on the wrist, the Board of Medical Examiners defends its action as necessary to protect the state's citizens and preserve public confidence in the integrity of the medical profession. Sloan concluded, "In reality, this decision demonstrates that Tennessee's ban on sexual exploitation of patients is essentially meaningless. Doctors in the Volunteer State can freely prey on patients with little fear of repercussions."

SERVES:makes 36 pieces
3 medium zucchiniapprox. 1/2 cup all-purpose flour2 large eggs, beatenapprox. 1/2-3/4 cup grated parmesan cheeseapprox. 1/2-3/4 cup panko (or see hints below)
olive oil for sauteingwarm marinara sauce for dipping
Cut the ends of the zucchini off and then cut the zucchini in half lengthwise, cut each half lengthwise into thirds, and then cut all of the pieces crosswise in half.
Set up a dredging station by putting a little all-purpose flour in one shallow bowl, beating a couple of eggs in another and then combining equal parts grated parmesan cheese and panko breadcrumbs in another.
Dredge the zucchini sticks, in batches, first in the flour and then lightly in the eggs, and then finally in the breadcrumbs and cheese, placing them into a baking dish or onto a plate as you go.
Combine more cheese and breadcrumbs as you need to and then saute the sticks in batches in a large, heavy bottomed nonstick pan in a little splash of olive oil on medium to medium high heat.
Stay with them and slowly cook them evenly on all sides until they're lightly browned all around, adding a little more olive oil as you need to.
You can serve these as you go, with a little warm marinara sauce on the side, or keep them warm in a low oven and serve them all at once.
Substitute regular dried breadcrumbs for the panko breadcrumbs if you like.

Impressionable waxIn 1881, David Gestetner invented the first stencil copier. It was the earliest form of mechanically duplicating a printed image. It was based on the principle of punching small holes through a thin woven paper so ink could pass through to form an image. The cyclostyleA later version contained a small rotating stylus which Gestetner called a 'cyclostyle'. The needle drew onto delicate wax paper without breaking the surface. A hinged printing frame was then inked by hand for each copy that was required. Factory in TottenhamAs Gestetner's invention became a success, his business grew. A factory was established in Tottenham which employed 6000 people. The factory remained open until the 1970s when it relocated to Wellingborough in Northamptonshire. Gestetner is now a hugely successful international corporation, supplying office equipment and services throughout the world. Museum number L149 Related objects |

One of the most highly anticipated discoveries in all of physics happened this year -- well, probably. Scientists at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, said they used the Large Hadron Collider to detect a particle whose characteristics matched those of the Higgs boson.
What is the Higgs boson, you ask? It's basically a component of an invisible field, called the Higgs field, that is responsible for the mass of all the matter in the universe. In essence, it is why we are here.
Finding this particle, sometimes referred to as the "God particle" in popular culture, will fill a large gap in scientists' understanding about how the universe works. But it's not "God" in the way that you might think. Nobel Prize-winning physicist Leon Lederman wrote a book with "God Particle" in the title, but reportedly said he'd actually wanted to call it the "Goddamn Particle."
But wait, what about its mass? The two most precise ways that the particle has been measured have yielded slightly different values for its mass, said Beate Heinemann, scientist with the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. But these measurements are consistent, and with more data that difference should get smaller. "It all points at the moment to that this is indeed the Higgs boson," she said in an e-mail.
More results are expected in March 2013, she said.
3. James Cameron's deep dive
He didn't find The Heart of the Ocean necklace, but director James Cameron did probe the remotest depths of the ocean this year. In fact, using his one-man submersible, the maker of "Titanic" and "Avatar" traveled to the deepest known point in the world's oceans.
Cameron is the first to go alone to Challenger Deep, the name for that part of the Mariana Trench in the western Pacific Ocean. Here's a mind-boggling fact: Mariana Trench is deeper than Mount Everest is tall. Only two other humans have ever visited it.
In this cold, dark place, miles beneath the ocean's surface, Cameron said he did not see any fish, but did spot some "shrimplike animals." It took him 2 hours, 36 minutes, to get down there.
"It's a completely alien world," Cameron said.

Well, I've read the Bible too and I notice that God in beginning showed himself like a man, inclusively fighting with Jacob, but after in Moses's time the same God don't allow that they made any image of other godess inclusively of him and that time he only showed himself like a smoke and fire. What happens? Why that change of posture?
Besides God sometimes is like a Jesus's God sometimes is very bad, is like there were two diferent Gods commanding mankind.
If Satan wanted be God, could be in that strange change of posture, there were a war between them about who commanding manking, but very diferent than that foolish of monsters and everything. What do you think?
Seems like conspiration theory but is not I'm thinking only a litle war between aliens.
Roland Emmerich and Dean Devlin were sued for stealing the storyline from a student of Egyptology named Omar Zuhdi who submitted the story to them about ten years before the movie was made (they "rejected" the story at the time). Zuhdi even had a well-respected Egyptologist from Johns Hopkins University vouch for him, since he put his own theories into the story. The only differences between the story and the movie are slight name variations. The issue was finally settled out of court.

Would you like to be GB buddies?
I agree. We ahve a lot of "promising" technologies but none ever seem to come to market. We keep paying for research from taxpayer money but all we get is taxpayer subsidized ethanol.
"Why do we even print these speculating opinions? only going to create panic and make a real shortage and "social unrest" in the states.. " As it is, it's only true though. As I've said for quite some time, it's only a matter of time before we see oil hit not only $140, but $170, $200, $220 and more. Gas will go not only to $4 a gallon but $5, $6, $8, $10, $14 and more. Bread will go up to $5 a loaf and beyond at some point soon enough, eggs will be the same and more for a dozen, clothes, shampoo, laundry detergent, and every thing else you need will be more. That part of the reason why those people overseas are protesting and rioting and I can't blame them one bit. It'll happen here eventually.

Growth Hormone in Elderly: Bad Insulin Effects, Good Lipid EffectsPosted: Monday, November 16, 2009Growth hormone increases insulin resistance and modestly improves lipid profiles in healthy older men and women, according to a new report. Growth hormone is widely and inappropriately used as anti-aging therapy, the authors explain, but few studies have assessed the combined effects of growth hormone plus sex steroids on glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity in healthy older individuals. Dr. Thomas Munzer from the National Institutes of Health, Baltimore, and colleagues examined the effects of growth hormone, without or with concomitant sex steroid administration, on circulating glucose, insulin, lipid concentrations and insulin sensitivity in 131 healthy individuals age 65 to 88 years. * Increased 2-hour insulin and insulin AUC after growth hormone Among the findings in men: * Increased 2-hour glucose levels, glucose AUC, and insulin AUC after growth hormone alone and growth hormone plus testosterone "In summary, growth hormone administration to healthy older women and men for 6 months increased insulin resistance and exerted moderately beneficial effects on serum lipids," the authors conclude. They add, "In women, hormone replacement therapy appeared to preserve insulin sensitivity when coadministered with growth hormone, whereas testosterone given to men exerted no obvious effects on insulin sensitivity."

New Path For Breamore
Wednesday, 26 September 2012
Residents and ramblers alike will benefit from increased access to the New Forest National Park, thanks to a new footpath created by Hampshire County Council's Countryside Service.
The County Council has been working closely with volunteers from the Ringwood and Fordingbridge Footpath Society, Breamore Parish Council and the New Forest National Park to establish a route along the old Breamore railway line, to create better access to the north-west area of the park and avoid the need for people to walk on busy roads.
The new path will run from Burgate Cross to South Charford, passing through the Breamore train station and covering a distance of just under two miles.
Hampshire County Council's Executive Member for Culture and Recreation, Councillor Keith Chapman said:
"With the opening of this path, not only will more people be able to access even more of Hampshire's beautiful countryside, but they will also be able to do so on a safe, off-road route.
"By working together with local residents, volunteers from the Ringwood and Fordingbridge Footpath Society, the New Forest National Park authority, Breamore Parish and Cranborne Chase AONB, we can create a safe route between Breamore and Fordingbridge for everyone to enjoy."
Vicky Myers, the New Forest National Park Authority's Lead Member for Enjoyment, said:
"This new path provides improved access for recreational users in the north-west area of the New Forest National Park. It is great that residents of Breamore and local walkers worked together to restore this old railway line, which will benefit so many people. The National Park Authority is pleased to have been able to support this worthwhile project that will enable people to enjoy such a picturesque area of the National Park."
The path was officially opened on Thursday 20 September 2012.

It was Totally Krossed Out.
By KRIS KROSS.
Oh, you don't know about Kris Kross?
They were a teen rap duo in the early Nineties. Their big gimmick was WEARING THEIR CLOTHES BACKWARDS. Allow me to introduce you:
Can you see now why I came down with an unstoppable case of the (ever-attractive) snorting giggles when J informed me of this?
However, this isn't really about Kris Kross, or my husband's questionable taste in music as a child.
You see, it's our anniversary on Friday.
And over the past four years of marriage, we've experienced enough together so that I know I'm married to an incredibly kind, brilliant and good man. I know that. But it's the little things like this, the random, funny things that I didn't know (until now) that truly warm my heart. And somehow, if it's possible? Make me love him even more.
Happy Anniversary, J!
* * * * *
Since I'm apparently video-happy today, and the next few days are all about: (a) eating and (b) family, are there any of you that DON'T want to see:
A runaway frozen turkey?
Nell Carter cavorting onstage and singing with Bea Arthur, Punky Brewster, Carlton from Fresh Prince, et al.?
I thought not.
Happy Thanksgiving!!

The BLACKEST NIGHT is upon us, and the dead are rising across the DCU. No one is unaffected, and some teams -- like the TITANS -- have seen more than their share of fatalities over the years. Later this month, writer J.T.
The regular SUPERGIRL Team of writer Sterling Gates and artist Jamal Igle roar into the third part of the "Codename: Patriot" crossover, as Supergirl and Mon-El throw down against Nightwing and Flamebird.
On 9/2, writer Eric Trautmann and artist Marco Rudy team up for THE SHIELD, a new ongoing series spinning out of The Red Circle one-shot and featuring an INFERNO co-feature.
The moment we've all been waiting for is close at hand. The superstar team of writer Geoff Johns and artist Gary Frank reunite to present the modern origin of the Man of Steel, and it all starts with a gigantic 48-[age first issue.
The issue hits 9/2, but why not take a peek at Talbot's magnificent cover now?
Well, the cover says it all, no? Writers Michael Green and Mike Johnson re-team with artist Rafael Albuquerque to kick off an all-new arc, bringing an old, simian foe back from the dead, as he endangers the loved ones of both Superman and Batman. With Lois and Alfred kidnapped, who can survive in a world where "Grodd wins"? Find out with a few pages from the issue below.
The talented POWER GIRL team of Jimmy Palmiotti, Justin Gray and artist extraordinaire Amanda Conner kick off a new story arc, "Space Girls Gone Wild!" with this issue, as a trio of sexy alien maraurders hit Earth for the ultimate party. Unfortunately, this galactic bender includes destroying the planet. Sounds like a certain Power Girl has to crash the festivities, no?
The day is winding down, and you're looking for something on the web to help pass the time. How about some Philip Tan BATMAN AND ROBIN #6 art? Not enough? We'll thrown in some Tony Daniel art for BATMAN #693 plus Jock's take on AZRAEL #2?
[gallery link="file"]
Last week, we showed off Guillem March's lovely variant cover to POWER GIRL #6 -- which lead some of you to ask about the variants for #4 and 5. Well, we aim to please.

The LA Film Fest is this weekend, and we've got five pairs of movie ticket vouchers, which includes lounge day passes for you and your guest, to give away to Audrey readers!
Yes, I know, they're screening The Twilight Saga: Eclipse at the festival. But there's plenty of Asian love at this film festival, too, so if you're around, check it out. Some highlights include:
On May 12, 2008 at 14:28, the Great Sichuan Earthquake rocked China, claiming the lives of more than 68,000 people. Ten days later, filmmaker Du Haibin was there, camera in hand. The result is a film that won the Best Documentary Award at the 2009 Venice International Film Festival. Du not only covers the immediate aftermath, but also the government response and the fate of the survivors seven months later. Going beyond the whitewashed official visits portrayed in mainstream media, 1428 gives the audience a raw look at the reality of today's Beichuan, the town most severely hit, where Lunar New Year's is celebrated with a never-ending parade of tourists buying DVDs of the most horrific scenes, souvenir albums of corpses being pulled out of the ruins, and photo taking.
Café Noir
What's interesting about this story of unrequited love is that it's the directorial debut of Korean film critic-turned-auteur Jung Sung-il. The storyline is simple enough: A heartsick music teacher, recently dumped by his married lover, finds himself drawn to a young woman living in her own romantic purgatory. What makes Jung's subversively funny Café Noir a fascinating, ambitious piece of art are all the references to Goethe, Dostoyevsky, leftist politics, Bollywood, Christianity and, of course, the last decade of Korean cinema.
Isao Yukisada's stylish and subversive drama follows four twenty-somethings in a small Tokyo apartment. The motley crew don't really know much about each other, but they tolerate each other as they go through the daily pressures or work, love and play. But strange things are going on, including a serial killer on the loose, as the film's sitcom feel turns sinister. Yukisada is expected to attend the screening.
Woman on Fire Looks for Water
Korean director Woo Ming Jin captures the meditative rhythms of life in a small Malaysian fishing village, as he follows father and son and their respective heartache. Ah Fei is in love with Lily, but he can't capture her heart selling frogs from the river. Meanwhile, Ah Fei's equally heartsick father, worried that death is near, sets off to a neighboring village to pursue a long lost love.
Golden Slumber
Called a cross between "Pee Wee's Big Adventure and The Fugitive," Yoshihiro Nakamura's serio-comic thriller follows easygoing Aoyagi as he tries to clear his name when he is framed for the Prime Minister's assassination. The film's already a major hit in its native Japan.
Based on a real life case, Liu Jie's film puts a spotlight on China's past. A by-the-book judge invokes an almost-obsolete law and sentences a car thief to death. The thief attempts to make amends, offering to donate his kidney to a powerful businessman if it will mitigate his sentence.
The Wolf Knife (World Premiere)
Japanese American Laurel Nakadate's stunning, low-budget feature follows two teenage girls on a road trip, but instead of the journey, it's the girls' conflicted relationship that is the focus of this stylish film.
Where Are You Taking Me? (North American Premiere)
Japanese filmmaker Kimi Takesue reveals the many faces and facets of Uganda, from a high society wedding to a center for former child soldiers. Takesue is expected to attend the screening.
The Wheeler Boys
Filipino American auteur Philip G. Flores' directorial debut, The Wheeler Boys, captures small town life as a young boy struggles to accept some disturbing revelations about the older brother he idolizes.
So just comment below by tomorrow, June 15 at 11 am, and we'll pick five lucky winners! Good luck!

POMEROY — Did you know that behind Meigs High School there is a small chicken coop occupied with not just ordinary chickens but a few birds of the rare Java breed?
The Java type chickens were reportedly in America as early as 1835 but are said to have practically disappeared from here in the 1950s.
While the population of Javas has increased, the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy continues to list Javas as "critical" on its watch list, meaning fewer than 500 breeding birds from five or fewer primary breeding flocks are known.
The Javas at Meigs High School were given to the Vocational Agriculture (VoAg)/FFA department by Rodney Butcher of the Harrisonville community, the uncle of an FFA member, with the thought that it would give the students an opportunity to raise and show the rare birds which reside in Meigs County.
Last summer Tiffany Will purchased two of the Javas from Butcher to enter in the Meigs County Fair competition. She received a reserve champion award on her chickens.
The Javas are much larger and have a completely different look than the regular breed of chickens we see down on the farm. The black Javas usually have a green sheen to their feathers while the mottled Javas have red eyes and black feathers with streaks of color.
Javas are heavy chickens, with roosters weighing around 9.5 pounds and hens anywhere from 6.5 to 7.5 pounds. They are slow-growing compared to other chickens but produce a good carcass and the hens lay large brown eggs.
The Javas were known to be in existence in America as early as 1835 but were not recognized officially by acceptance into the American Poultry Association's Standard of Perfection until 1883. The white, black and mottled Javas were all originally described in the Association's Standard of Perfection, but then the White was removed in 1910 because it was thought to be too similar to the White Plymouth Rock. The white Java is said to have practically disappeared in the 1950s.
By the end of the 20th century, Javas had nearly vanished having been pushed to fringes of the poultry world by the intense focus on two breeds by commercial growers. Beginning in the 1990s breeders and conservation organizations began to make a more concerted effort to save the Javas.
The Meigs VoAg students look forward to increasing the population in the chicken coop. The first baby chicks from Java eggs emerged several weeks ago.

I am not a Chargers fan. I am a football fan, or was a football fan. After tonight I am done. I want my Saints to win but not like this. That was not a hit to the chin to Drew Brees, that was not pass interference by Antonio Gates, that receiver was out of bounds and they kept the clock running and there was a conference as to whether or not Brown had the first down or not while they kept the clock running and not giving the Chargers the time back that they wasted while getting to the obvious. What?!! It is a shame what is happening to sports. It is all about the bucks. No more integrity. I am done. I will find other things to do with my Sunday's.
Not sure what was up with the refs tonight, but that was truly a bizarre ending. I'll keep watching, but it was certainly one-sided. If they're not going to call PI on the Saints, that's cool, just don't call it on the Chargers. Simple as that.
Yeah, or if they are going to call a borderline penalty that wipes out an INT for Brees, call the borderline penalty that would have wiped out Rivers INT.
Thanks for coming in & saying this. Doesn't help the W-L stats, but it does help to know that we Charger fans aren't just crying over nothing. We were straight-up jobbed. It's a damn shame that the NFL feels like they have to make up for their harsh treatment of the Saints' re: the bounty fiasco by putting in a fix on this game. **** Goodell.
it is a pure sign how the NFL is rigged. Brees goes for record on national TV, Sean Peyton is ALLOWED to attend the game, BREES has the comeback. It doesn't matter who the Saints played last night the outcome was already decided. Way too many phantom penalties.
Sucks but it is what it is. IMO the call on Ingram was technically correct but not in the spirit of the game. The non call on Floyd was a mystery. Without much fanfare I turned to the Orioles/Yanks after the Floyd interception. Conspiracy or not, when the refs account for 21 point differential in a game, it's just not fun to watch. Isn't that what football should be? Fun to watch? Saints got the W. They capitalized on their opportunities. I don't begrudge them that
I really don't know what to think right now and I don't even drink, so I know what I saw. I have a lot of question that I know will never be answered concerning this game and one of them is, how come the third quarter is so damn hard on the Chargers all of a sudden?
Lots of respect for you coming over here. And this doesn't change the fact that it was a fun game to watch that the Saints had a shot at winning. Still it was won by the Zebras instead of the team and I'm glad you have the pride and respect of your convictions to come here. BTW had alot of our members visit N.O they had nothing but the best things to say about the fans and the city. Class group all the way and it's always fun when our two teams play
Chargers lost, Saints won. The refs did everything they could to help the Saints along the way, but in the end, our secondary let us down, the Ingram call was accurate (Leading with the crown) but like its been said, not in the spirit of the rule as he hit his helmet on the left shoulder to start the hit and slid up into his chin (Guy is not that much taller than Sproles) so I'll call a wash on that. Then Brees ate us up for the next drive. Dude is and has been good for a long time. Rivers starts the march down the field, makes a solid accurate pass under duress to malcom floyd who gets molested over the back and gets a no call. Sorry but that was ridiculous especially because the midjudge was looking straight at it from the front. Saints work a short field goal to go up by 7. Rivers starts to march again and the refs step in to slow or spoil this drive. The call on Gates was almost as bad as the one in baseball where the runner got called out when the 1st baseman was 3 feet off the bag. The holding call on Nick Hardwick was close to as bad. Completely non-existant but the refs had to come up with something. The holding call on Tyrone Green after that was at least somewhat accurate although amazingly ticky tacky especially for the last 2 minutes of the game where most refs let them play a little more. That being said, Rivers still managed to put us into position to make a couple final shots at the endzone which IMHO would have been a score considering how poorly the Saints were playing D at the time. And in steps Norv with his clock and player mismanagement. Should have spiked the ball at least once going down the field there in the final 45-30 seconds. 1 of the 10 coaches watching the field should have seen the injury to Gaither and sent Mike Harris in. Didnt we hire some old coach to do nothing but watch the clock and players for Norv? Where the **** was that guy last night cause I want his paycheck. In the end, the Saints played well (Mostly on Offense), we played pretty well (Especially on Offense), the refs did everything they could to impact the game without wearing a button saying "I shine the hood of Good", but we let down after the Ingram penalty, Norv mismanaged the clock/players again, and we as a team lost a game we could have won by lettign the Saints back in to this one. Time to let this go and get really angry for Monday night. I want people complaining about how brutal we are by the time next Tuesday hits. It's time to start being the bully on the field.
I'd like to think that if this happened at home on Natl. TV I'd have the backbone to go onto another teams site and extend my apologies for what seemed to not be a cleanly officiated game. I probably wouldn't, and that says a lot about the city of New Orleans. I am not sure the game itself was directly fixed. Sure there some dubious non calls and then a few mystery calls, it could be coincidence. The biggest disgraces overshadowing even officiating were that the Saints brass were allowed to come to the game, the message to youngsters out there is that it's okay to break the rules, your punishment will be lifted if Drew Brees is your friend. The other nasty undertone was the way Jenkins (among others) treated Meachum. In fact I saw 3 other personal fouls commited after the play by Jenkins AFTER his first penalty, all straight in front of a ref. If a player is on D for a team being penalized for a bounty program, on natl. TV, commits a personal on an ex fellow teammate, how can the refs not be watching him like a hawk? Another bad example to young players out there that if you aren't as good as your opponent, you can make up some ground through intimidation off the ball. Just ask the 1976 Philadelphia Flyers or 1980 Oakland Raiders.
Thanks for coming here and saying that. Much respect, and interesting that you're not the only Saints fan saying this. Would be curious reading other Saints' thoughts if you have a message board.
That's just home town refs, it happens in all sports and it's not directed against the Chargers in some conspiracy. Badly called game, but if the NFL is so hot for big market trendy teams why did they uphold the Seattle robbery on Green Bay? Do you think the NFL wants Seattle in the post season or Rogers and co? Subconsciously, you know that crowd will cheer if you punish the visiting team and all people seek approval and reassurnace.
Well the Bolts need to come home and smack the Broncos around on Monday night and secure the division lead.
http://video.nbcsports.msnbc.com/nbc-sports/49332127 Wtf, I actually agree with Florio... Still think he sucks tho!
This is good fuel for the Monday Night game. It will be in San Diego, but it will be against Peyton Manning (the media dandy w/constantly polished five-head to go along with his knob). Bolt Up!
No, but this being the second time in two weeks that Ingram has had a costly QB-related penalty might cause him to change his playstyle, and maybe not for the better. I'm worried about whether he'll learn to control himself when he's getting near the QB, or if he'll simply become too cautious.
Or...he could learn from it and become even better. There's no use worrying about what-ifs that you have no control over. Pointless stress.
I was referring to the team as a whole, not Ingram. Where did either Conc, or I, mention Ingram by name?
I'm sorry, am I not allowed to bring up an aspect of an issue unless you or Conc mention it first? I apologize for breaking forum procedure...
Floyd's last spot of foward progress was in bounds, he then got tackled out of a bounds for a loss from that spot. So the ref was right in keeping the clock running
Seemed like a ticky tack forward progress stop to me. If refs were always that quick to call forward progress, guys like Michael Turner wouldn't get many 2nd effort yds.
No, it just didn't follow anything I said, or Conc said (whom I was quoting). Your reference to Ingram was totally unrelated to what I wrote, and you were quoting me. What's so hard to understand?

VINTON — Two people were arrested on Wednesday night following the discovery of a large indoor marijuana grow operation on Wednesday evening.
Melissa Wooten, 29, and Robert Lovell, 33, both of Price Road, Vinton, were arrested on charges of cultivation of marijuana, drug trafficking, possession of paraphernalia and child endangerment. Price Road is located in Meigs County near the Gallia County line.
Meigs County Sheriff Keith Wood reports that deputies with the Meigs County Sheriff's Office and a representative from Meigs County Department of Job and Family Services responded to a children's services complaint on Price Road in Vinton on Wednesday evening.
Upon arrival, contact was made with Wooten and one of her two juvenile children who live in the home. Deputies and the representative reportedly detected a strong aroma of marijuana coming from inside the home.
Deputies then received a search warrant for the home to investigate the marijuana odor.
Upon entry to the home, deputies located a 150-plant indoor grow operation along with a large amount of marijuana packaged for sale, heroin, prescription medication, drug paraphernalia and firearms.
Deputies then arrested Wooten along with her boyfriend, Lovell, who also resides at the residence.
Wooten is being housed in the Middleport Jail and Lovell at the Washington County Jail.
Wood credited the community's ongoing support for his office's success in combating drug issues in the area.
Anyone with any drug information is urged to contact the Meigs County Sheriff's Office at (740) 992-3371 and, as always, your call can remain anonymous.

Social Mania
Can an engineer keep a clean desk?
Brian Fuller
A lot of of the work spaces were clearly well-used and had been in a state of "genius" for some time. Habit and place conspired to make the status quo.
But what would happen if an engineer started with a clean slate? Would he or she have the discipline to keep things orderly and tidy, and would that affect his or her brilliance?
Mike Burr wanted to find out. He was one of the contributors to the original photo series. (Judging by the looks of Burr's old bench, he's as genius!)
We missed Burr on the Drive for Innovation swing through Florida, alas, but he had an opportunity to be our test bed.
Burr, who works at Tectron Engineering in Jacksonville, Fla., relocated with his team when the company moved its facility to co-locate with its fiberglass house.
April 30 they moved. May 1 was Day 1 of the clean engineering desk. How long do you think this lasted?
Here's his first day:
Next: So far, so good
Work to Ride comma Ride to Work
Tangible items help inspire. The kinds of eclectic things inhabiting my desk right now. A hermetically sealed
6.3V 400Hz filament transformer. A 400 Hz synchro. An ohmite ceramic rheostat. A handful of proto boards. An AFL27005S thick film hybrid DC/DC converter (Lambda Adv Analog now IR). A plasma ball. A disassembled GPS navigator awaiting a fix. A couple of stud mount diodes (400V, 250A). Plastic box with miscellaneous resistors and capacitors. Some ferrite cores of various sizes and materials. A couple reels of SM caps. A 150 amp current shunt. A Red Lion Controls counter.
And that's just what I can see. :-)
On the floor under one of my desks and benches is a radar magnetron 6" diameter and 15" high. Had it for years - someday I'm going to add a pole and light bulb socket and turn it into a lamp. :-)

I think a lot of it has to do with filing systems and accessibility. A big flat space where nothing is more than a layer deep is a pretty time efficient filing method. However, it's not very space efficient; hence the messy desk.
I'm guessing the desk will take a two week path from clean to messy, with the time increasing or decreasing based on the number and size of tools and parts needed during that time period.
Keeping a clean desk just to have a clean desk is a non-value-add activity, (IMHO).
However, if a desk gets messy enough to inhibit design or other activities then the desk/work area should be cleaned up...
I once had a sign above my desk; "A clean desk is a sign of a misguided career."
Any time I have tried to keep a clean desk I can't find anything. Let it me and I know where to find things. Basically I work best with an archeological filing system - the further back when I last worked on it the deeper in the pile it is. I do keep a "common work" area free and always available though.
I once had a sign above my desk "I'm not a slow designer; I'm not a fast designer - I'm a half-fast designer."
Years ago, while an engineer at IBM I got in some trouble after posting the sign "A Clean Lab is an UNUSED Lab" during a forced lab cleanup for a management walk through. I was upset because I had to disassemble a working test system, and then had to rebuild it from scratch, starting a few minutes after the walk through!
I worked for a company in the 90s that adopted some silly management concept of changing things just for the sake of change because "it would increase productivity". Everybody's office got relocated except mine. I found out years later that a director had said that they would have moved my office also but it would have shut the company down for 6 months. Now that is messiness of legendary proportions.
I had an archeological filing system with a slope towards the front of my tables. When stuff started falling off the front of the table I would SELF-IMPOSE a cleanup of sorts.
There was a time (before e-mail) when my in-tray would become so overloaded, that I would take a large envelope - stuff it - and mail it to myself (through internal mail)... It would usually take 2 days to return to me, giving me time to sort out the remainder of the contents in my tray...
I realized sometimes organizing the desk will help organizing the mind an clear the thoughts as well. Try it :-)
And sometimes, for others, cleaning all the goodies off a desk/bench will clear all the associated ideas out of one's mind.
Years ago, I found that a clean desk can be a detriment! While working in the test lab at Harris, we had a quota of so many pieces of equipment to calibrate each week. Unfortunately, at that time a Simpson 260 was worth as many points as a spectrum analyzer! (System later balanced out to a dollar per dollar system) So, the name of the game was to rush out on Monday morning and grab as many Simpson 260s due for calibration as possible. If one was successful, he could have half his quota by noon Monday.
So, one Friday, I cleaned up my desk spotlessly clean, and everything put away and organized so I'd have a running start Monday.
Come in Monday morning, and there on my desk was the awfullest pile of Junk I'd ever seen!! And the boss by the desk: "So and so in such and such department no longer needs any of this stuff, sort through it and see if there's anything we can use!"
Needless to say, quota not met that week.
A clean desk attracts others' junk.
Always reply with the following "Did you hire an Engineer or a house keeper?" Engineers solve dozens of issues a day and leave parts of projects spreadout over several tables and desks. If you move anything you sabotage the project, leave the mess alone.
Thanks DAB
Only addition would be to tack on after leaving the mess alone.
"Quit bugging me with production issues. So I can get back to engineering."
I used to work at a company, Methode, and we got a new area manager whose forte was accounting and sales, not even close on engineering. He decided to start weekly clean cube audits because the Japanese engineering offices were so clean. First they got rid of the messy cubes, then all of the really creative engineers left about the same time that the new manager announced that we had too many engineers, so we would be getting rid of a few, if we needed more we would just hire them because they are all the same. I am not certain exactly what business they are in presently. But the cubes are neat.
Methode has expanded overseas, but the Golden, Illinois plant has been sold to a company that tiles fields, and Carthage reduced to apx 100. I retired after 22 years there, in test equipment design and fabrication.
This kind of article is on the verge of trolling. Being an embedded engineer I have on the average use about three desk tops of "junk" (comprising of a mix of parts, cares, cables, and test equipment that looks like spaghetti piles). The fun part is when you have an office mentality that everyone can equally fit into a nice 4'x8' cubical with a pair of compsci code monkeys in a paperless office. The boss breezes by and turns up his nose and asks why you cannot be as organized as the rest of the Spartan black turtlenecks or make everything look FOA pretty. The manager thinks this engineer guy does not deserve this big room that rivals his and if that guy was to get organized and reduce, he could fit into one of those authorized 4'x4' cubicles. I notice by the picture there is a radiant heater. This I have seen before because it means the "messy" arcane engineer is likely shoved into the corner basement where there is no heat while all the FOA workers are in the nicer areas so the boss can proudly show them off. I also see lots of parts, starter kits, manuals, spare computers, lab equipment, microscope, several working computers, special software, couple old desks (no fancy glass/stainless ones or fancy chairs), and drawers of drawings. Sure you can get rid of the things you are not currently using and spend days or weeks reordering when needed. You can't download a transistor, cable, or demo board in a few seconds. Then there is the priority to get things to work then worry about esthetics. With deadlines looming, esthetics goes out the window. When all is said and done, man-agers cannot turn a wild game sausage maker into a clean room bunny suit jockey. Alas, they try and whimper at the results.
No radiant heater, FL Just doesn't seem to need it :-) If you look at my desk in the original article, it was in the main office, next to ceiling to floor windows, back in the corner where Accounting(owner's wife) didn't have direct line of vision :-). The conspicuous lack of windows was My personal choice, but the ability to "hide away" and not get pestered with production issues has been a blessing. I'm actually finding time to be an engineer again. At least I have the advantage of working for an ME and a MaterialsE. They're quite understanding of the design process.
The only time(s) my desk is clean is when I don't have a project(s) to work on. In other words, it's a bad sign!
Around 30 yrs ago my first job out of college was at a big R&D lab. During my first year a manager of a related group came into my cramped office and saw how messy it was. He said something like "It's been proven that the most productive engineers have the neatest desks". This worried me for a long time, until I happened to visit HIS office about a year later. It looked like someone had upended a dumpster in it. I later found out this guy had a very droll sense of humor and was just pulling my leg. My desk still looks like a mess, by the way.
I wonder what Dave Kress' desk of Analog Devices looks like these days? Back in Dec, I could see his forehead above the stacks of papers on his desk. Has anyone checked on him lately? Judging by his desk, he is way past genius level.
Clean is relative word. yes if you do real things according to general public point of view your desk is messy. if all your stuff have easy access i think that is clean,
My first experience with someone who managed to leave their desk clean each night impressed me until I caught him dumping the contents into his adjacent filing cabinet before leaving for the day.
Pre email days, a colleague had a three tier in-tray with the tiers labelled "In", "Still In" and "Laugh and Tear Up".
"A clean desk is a sure sign of an empty mind"
I was interviewing years ago; the chief engineer was giving me a tour after chatting in his office when I used this line. Then I thought OMG what did his desk look like? Back in his office, I was relieved to see a pleasantly messy desk. Got the job.

Amateur Golfers Invited to Join Exclusive Team of "Game-Improvement Professionals"; Team JPX Spokesperson Announced
NORCROSS, Ga., March 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Mizuno, the global leader in golf technology and innovation, is helping golfers nationwide improve their game while offering the opportunity to be treated like a pro as an exclusive member of "Team JPX." Launched today, Play Famously will champion the cause and determination of the "everyman" golfer using Mizuno's JPX-825 line of game-improvement irons. Pittsburgh, Penn. native Lee Baughman was selected as the first of a 12-member team of Mizuno "game-improvement professionals."
Baughman was selected as the face of Team JPX through a separate "casting call" process lead by Golf Digest through its popular GolfWRX online forum. As the official spokesman for Team JPX, Baughman participated in his first "tour" experience in South Florida with fellow Mizuno professional staff members Luke Donald, Charles Howell III, Jonathan Byrd and Stacy Lewis.
"It's pretty awesome that Mizuno would give a national spotlight to a bunch of everyday amateurs and let us experience what it's like to be treated like a pro," said Baughman. "I never thought in a million years I'd be hitting range balls with one of the best players in the world Luke Donald, but Mizuno made that possible with a campaign for the 'everyman,' like me."
The remaining 11 members of Team JPX will be selected through an online contest at www.playfamously.com where golfers are encouraged to try the new JPX-825 irons at a participating retailer, and provide their feedback on the high performance game-improvement irons through a brief essay, photos and/or videos demonstrating their passion for the game and why they deserve to be on Team JPX. Winners receive a complete JPX-825 golf package including custom fit JPX-825 irons, JPX-825 woods, JPX wedges, a Mizuno staff bag personalized with their name, a season's worth of Mizuno apparel and accessories and customized instruction from Team JPX's "Swing Coach" and PGA Master Teacher, Dr. Gary Wiren. The Team JPX season will culminate with the ultimate tour experience at the JPX Invitational, the first "tour level" event for amateurs at the home of Mizuno's R&D Center, the Country Club of the South in Atlanta.
"The passion of amateur golfers is at the heart of our sport. It's what drives our sport and it's really special that Mizuno is going to these lengths to celebrate them with this campaign," said Donald. "Let's be honest, I don't think any of us pros are at risk of losing our jobs. For guys like Lee, consistently breaking 90 can be life-changing, and the right equipment makes all the difference."
At the heart of the Play Famously campaign is the newest addition to the JPX line of game-improvement irons, the JPX-825. The JPX-825s utilize an ultra-thin, Hot Metal face which delivers an enhanced 'trampoline effect' for the extra distance that all players desire. But because distance is nothing without forgiveness, the JPX-825s also feature an enormous sweet area, providing players with more consistent results that will leave even their mis-hits closer to the pin.
"A lot of people still view Mizuno as a brand for only elite players, but that's a misconception," said Dick Lyons, Vice President and General Manager, Golf Division for Mizuno USA. "We know that we have the longest and most forgiving irons on the market in the JPX-825s, but we're not asking golfers to take our word for it. We challenge any mid to high handicap players to put the JPX-825s up against anything they are playing now, and they will see for themselves."
Applications for a coveted spot on Team JPX will be accepted during select periods from March to May 2013. To see how the JPX-825 irons stack up against the competition and learn more about the campaign, visit www.playfamously.com.
