ZaVious Robbins Wins Prestigious Academic Award
By: Chad Grubbs/HSU Sports Information
Updated: October 29, 2009
The national finalists were selected from a list of 154 national semifinalists from all three NCAA Divisions as well as the NAIA. Each finalist will receive an $18,000 post-graduate scholarship, and one of the 16 will be announced as the recipient of the 20th Anniversary William V. Campbell Trophy, endowed by HealthSouth (and formerly known as the Draddy Trophy), which recognizes an individual as the absolute best scholar- athlete in the nation.
Renamed this fall in honor of Bill Campbell, the chairman of Intuit, former player and head coach at Columbia University and the 2004 recipient of the NFF's Gold Medal, the award comes with a 25-pound bronze trophy and a $25,000 post- graduate scholarship. A total distribution of $300,000 in scholarships will be awarded that evening.
Robbins, a native of Mesquite, is Hardin-Simmons' all-time leader in kickoff return yards, ZaVious Robbins has carried his on-field excellence into the classroom and community, establishing himself as the university's first-ever NFF National Scholar-Athlete.
"I am so excited about this I can't stop smiling," said Robbins. "A long time ago when I was a little kid my dad told me he wanted me to be a versatile person. He wanted me to be a good student and a good athlete and I guess this award signifies that I have done that."
"It is crazy and
definitely unexpected, but I am appreciative and humbled to be
selected. That is some pretty good company that I am included with. I
want to thank all of my coaches and teammates who have stuck with me
throughout my career. They are definitely a big part of this."
Named an ESPN The Magazine All-District selection in 2008, Robbins will
graduate with honors this December. The Mesquite, Texas, native is a
three- time President's List and Dean's List honoree, and was named the
school's most outstanding marketing student. He is also a two-time
academic all-conference selection.
A two-year captain, Robbins garnered first-team all-ASC laurels as a
receiver and second-team all-conference honors as a kick returner in
2008. He has recorded 49 kickoff returns for 1,211 yards and three
touchdowns in his career, including a school-record 100-yard return,
adding 75 career receptions for 1,119 yards and 13 touchdowns. He was
also named the 2008 ASC Football Sportsmanship Player of the Year.
Unfortunately, he has missed most of his senior season with a knee
injury. He had 11 catches for 140 yards and a touchdown in the season
opener and was injured on the first drive of the second game.
An officer for the Delta Mu Delta National Honor Society, Robbins
spends his time volunteering for Meals on Wheels and the Keep Abilene
Beautiful program. He also serves on the Student-Athlete Advisory
Committee and is a member of the American Marketing Association.
"Zavious is a great kid and very deserving of this honor," said HSU head coach Jimmie Keeling. "He is one of the rare ones that does everything the right way. He goes to class, he is active in the community and he is one of the best players on the field we have ever had. He has twice been voted a team captain and our kids just love him. When he gets the ball in his hands he is really explosive. We are proud for ZaVious. He is a great representative of what we look for in our program."
"There is no doubt that this year's class of NFF National Scholar-Athletes is one of the greatest of all time," said NFF President & CEO Steven J. Hatchell. "Mediocrity is not in their lexicon in any aspect of their lives. They have exhibited the same drive to compete in the classroom that distinguished them on the field, and they have found the time to be leaders in their communities too. We will be very excited and proud to name one of these extraordinary young men the recipient of the 20th Anniversary William V. Campbell Trophy on Dec. 8."
Nominated by their schools, which are limited to one nominee each, candidates must be a senior or graduate student in their final year of eligibility, have a grade point average of at least 3.2 on a 4.0 scale, have outstanding football ability as a first team player and have demonstrated strong leadership and citizenship. Selected by the NFF Awards Committee, the 16 National Scholar-Athlete Award recipients will be honored at the 2009 NFF Annual Awards Dinner December 8 at the Waldorf=Astoria in New York City. The event will also include the induction of the 2009 College Football Hall of Fame and the presentation of several major awards.
"The 2009 NFF National Scholar-Athlete Class boasts the highest average GPA in the history of our awards," said NFF Chairman Archie Manning, whose sons Peyton (Campbell winner) and Eli were NFF National Scholar-Athletes in 1997 and 2003, respectively. "They are truly the best of the best among all college sports and the epitome of our mission to build leaders through football. Bob Mulcahy and the NFF Awards Committee should be credited for the research, time and commitment it took to select this outstanding group."

Former world No. 1 Caroline Wozniacki, from Denmark, faces a tricky opening encounter against Sabine Lisicki while 2010 French Open winner Francesca Schiavone plays 2011 Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova.
Kvitova told CNN of the draw: "I practiced with Schiavone only yesterday! She is a dangerous player. She has a great slice from the backhand side and great spin from the forehand.
"She also has a strong kick serve so I have to be prepared for every shot. She is very fit and can run a lot so I will not play rallies with her.
"I think it's a great challenge. It will be a good match for the first round and I look forward to playing here in Melbourne again."
The Australian Open gets underway in Melbourne on Monday.

Clint, I just put the two kill commands that you had above into a batch file, ran it and it killed both processes. Now the first time both stopped and then MsMpEng.exe restarted. I manually killed it after that. Then I re-started it and ran my kill.bat again. This time both stopped. So I'm not sure what allowed it to restart itself, but obviously it has some self-protection thing somewhere.
Secondly, I don't think Steve was trying to be a pain with his first response, but as a moderator, I think he believes he needs to warn others who may be attempting things that they shouldn't. Anyway, I hate to see it when posts get nasty. I hope the above helps you.Code:C:\WINDOWS\system32\taskkill.exe /f /im MsMpEng.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\taskkill.exe /f /im msseces.exe Pause
BTW, I also restarted it again, but will probably re-boot. Also, there are programs that I will manually stop for similar reasons to Clint. I can't add anymore memory and it saves me enough to get through the day without getting the running out of virtual memory error and things do run smoother. I wouldn't suggest this for the uninitiated. :O)

WILLIAMSON - "Plant it Pink" is the slogan for this year's flower garden located outside the Mingo County Courthouse that was planted by and is being cared for by members of the Wildwood Garden Club.
Monday morning, members of the club joined county officials in front of the garden to kick off the 2012 Breast Cancer Awareness Month, an annual event that occurs each year during the month of October.
Although umbrellas were a necessity for those in attendance due to the drizzling rain, that didn't deter a crowd from attending the event. The welcoming speech was given by Anne Lambright, who was followed by speakers Kathy Pinson, Linda Shelton and Millie Pajarillo, who are all breast cancer survivors. Mingo County Commissioner Greg "Hootie" Smith addressed the crowd and thanked everyone for coming, and spoke about the great strides that are being made in the fight against breast cancer, and sadly, of the lives in the local community that have been lost to the disease.
Margaret Pinson read a poem entitled "I Didn't Know My Own Strength", followed by the musical selection "I Believe I Can Fly", performed by Krista Cather. The closing prayer was delivered by Alan Johnson, with special thanks being given to Joan Trimble, Linda Shelton, Judy Hamrick, Scott Poole and Sherrie Brown.
Vicky Hughes, who serves as the American Cancer Society Community Health Advisor (CHA) Manager for Boone, Logan and Mingo Counties, attended the event and spoke with the Daily News about the fight against breast cancer, stating that she has great respect for the various organizations within the county that strive to enlighten and inform the public about the disease, along with those who raise funding to assist in paying for mammograms for those who cannot afford to do so.
"An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, and we want all women in the Tug Valley area to remember that it's extremely important to have a yearly mammogram after you reach the age of 40, or after you turn 30 if you have a family history of the disease," stated Hughes. "If caught early, breast cancer is treatable. If not, the prognosis for the patient can be a totally different story."
"Don't be a statistic, get your yearly mammogram."

No Custom Parameters
Queries one or more devices, determining which user, if any, is currently logged into it.
Devices in Cisco Unified Communications Manager can potentially be logged into by a single, Extension Mobility-enabled user. QueryDevices
is a means to discover this relationship. The action will query the Extension Mobility service to determine which user, if any, is logged into the specified device(s) at that moment in time.
The QueryDevices
action returns a complex data type that, without any help, requires a substantial amount of C# to parse. To alleviate the demand for repetitive C#, you can use the GetDeviceStatus
action, which will help determine if a user is logged into a particular device.
The Devices
action parameter is of type string[]
, which does not map to a native type. There are two options for creating this type within a Cisco Unified Application Designer-based application. One is to create the string[]
in a C# snippet in the action parameter, the other is to use the System.Collections.ArrayList.ToArray(System.Type)
in a C# action parameter (which allows one to use an ArrayList variable). Both samples are listed below:
Example 12.2. Using ToArray()
to convert an ArrayList
to a string[]
(string[]) myArrayListVar.ToArray( typeof(string) )
This action will invoke the QueryDevices Extension Mobility API method by communicating to the specified Cisco Unified Communications Manager node.
Parameter Name | .NET Type | Default | Description |
AppId * | System.String | The name of a user configured in Cisco Unified Communications Manager that has the necessary permissions to invoke methods on the Extension Mobility service. | |
AppCertificate * | System.String | The password of the user specified by AppId . | |
DeviceNames * | System.String[] | The name(s) of the device(s) | |
Url | System.String | The URL for the Extension Mobility Service. This field should only be specified if the Extension Mobility Service is in a non-default location. This field is also completely ignored if any non-null value is specified as the CallManagerHost . | |
CallManagerHost | System.String | The IP address and port of a CallManager node with the Extension Mobility service running, in the form '[IP]:[Port]'. Note that the Extension Mobility service is on port 80 by default in 3.x/4.x, and on port 8080 by default in 5.x/6.x. | |
Version | Metreos.Native.CiscoExtensionMobility.CcmVersion | Undefined | The version of Cisco Unified Communications Manager. This version is used in conjuction with CallManagerHost to build the URL of the Extension Mobility Service. The possible values are described below:
Parameter Name | .NET Type | Description |
QueryDevicesResult | Metreos.Types.CiscoExtensionMobility.UserResponse | A complex variable type containing the data returned by this action. It is populated only on success. It can be parsed easily by using the GetDeviceStatus action. |
ErrorMessage | System.String | This error message maps almost exactly to the standard Cisco Unified Communications Manager Extension Mobility API error messages. The one exception is if the service returns null , which is returned by this action if the Extension Mobility service did not respond back to the Cisco Unified Application Server with response XML or if the action was unable to communication with the service. |

im one of the most fans of him.
I have never seen him in person, but one day I will. I know this. In the mean time look at something I made to grab his attention ....
I've never seen him in person and probably never will. I don't live in a part of the US where many celebs come (except stop over flights and concerts). Not really worried about it, because I'm not gonna meet my favorite actors either. It's okay, though. I figure interviews and stuff is good enough for me
I saw him once at the airport. I told him I was huge transformers fan and I thanked him for the job he did on the movies. We talked about Transformers for like 10 minutes! He signed a copy of Empire magazine for me and he even gave me the baseball cap he had on!................... And then my alarm went off and I woke up............. haha

Aston Villa manager Paul Lambert recently said that playing against American competition as a preseason tuneup is "good," given that MLS teams already are deep into the league campaign.
"The guys over in America are already in their seasons, which means they'll be tough opposition … they will be ahead of us in terms of fitness level, that's for sure," Lambert told the Birmingham Daily Mail in England.
But Lambert also said: "[These exhibition matches] matter to an extent because it's nice to get guys in the habit of winning."
On Wednesday night, Lambert and Aston Villa savored their first taste of a win, defeating a young Union side, 1-0, in front of an announced 17,195 supporters on a muggy night at PPL Park. A goal in the 43rd minute from Villa forward Nathan Delfouneso stood up despite a second-half wave from the Union, spearheaded by second-half substitute Josue Martinez. Martinez nearly leveled the match in the 73rd, when he broke into the box and ripped a shot across the face of goal that just skimmed wide.

Have made this recipe so many times and each time it is a hit! The trick we found is to slightly undercook them. Then they are soft in the middle, you have to put them into an air tight container before they are fully cooled or else the outside hardens too much and they become tiny rocks. You can also freeze them, then thaw and they taste as good as they did the first day:) I always get compliments when I feed these cookies to company, I am becoming famous for them!
Reviewed on Dec. 11, 2012 by crossties1
After such mixed reviews I almost didn't make them, but I decided to make this a school experiment, and we love the results. Our theory- overcooked snickerdoodles would have given people a hard, crumbly cookie, and overmixed dough will make them tough. We went exactly by the recipe for the first set, and reduced the cook time for the second (because we also reduced the cookie size). We creamed the room temperature (72 degrees) butter and sugar very, very well. We mixed dry ingredients in different bowl, then added in three groups, mixing in by hand, and not overmixing. Batter was perfect- not crumbly, not gooey. The temp of the room and humidity plays a huge factor with cookies. Our first cookies were small- 18 grams -yes, we measured, and they were no more than 1" in diameter. I pulled them at 10 minutes, and they were gloriously puffy, and less than 2" in diameter. They did not lose much height. The next set was half the size- only 10 grams and maybe 3/4" diameter. They were much closer to the picture, but because they are so small they don't get the crackly top that makes the cookies recognizable snickerdoodles. And they still spread to just over 1". We pulled those at 8 minutes, and I would not go any longer. Our decision; don't overmix, do NOT overcook (you should not see any browning on these, just like sugar cookies or shortbread), and don't expect the cookies that are in the pic. These will be tasty one or two-bite, slightly soft, slightly chewy cookies when moved to a ziplock bag as soon as they have cooled (about 3-5 minutes). We yielded 40 cookies, some 18 grams and some 10.
Reviewed on Dec. 09, 2012 by LadyGuise
These cookies were very easy to make and tasted super yummy coming right out of the oven. They weren't as good the next day after they got hard (though, I prefer soft cookies), but they still had a good taste. I would make these again as long as I was in the mood for them immediately out of the oven. Also, I doubled the recipe and still only yielded about 2 1/2 dozen, so if you are planning to make for a large group, I would double the recipe.

Megan Fox has been working with Giorgio Armani for two years now, but her latest campaign for the line's beauty products has really turned our heads.
In the new ads, Megan is a far cry from the tanned beauty we're used to, instead she's seen with ebony hair, blood red lips and a pale complexion. Her look is almost gothic and very reminiscent of the Evil Queen from Disney's Snow White & The 7 Dwarves.
VIDEO: Sacha Baron Cohen & Megan Fox Hook Up In "Dictator" Trailer
Snow White has been popular lately with different adaptations of the story being released relatively close together.
Movies like Mirror, Mirror, releasing on March 30th, stars Julia Roberts as the Evil Queen and Snow White & the Huntsman stars Kristen Stewart and Charlize Theron as her own beautiful Evil Queen.
PHOTOS: The Most Desirable Women In Hip-Pop
Maybe that explains the way this ad campaign was styled, or maybe the good folks over at Armani just thought that Megan was due for a change from her regular look. Although we do find it very coincidental that the eyeliner is called Eyes To Kill; it's definitely a product fit for an Evil Queen.
Take a look in the gallery!

With all of the hoopla over Kanye West starting a new ... everything, it made us think about the things that he is really into. Things like his love of the Givenchy clothing line!
Under the creative direction of Riccardo Tisci, the brand has recently begun to explode in the hip-pop world as the go-to "cool guy" brand.
Kanye is the main guy responsible for this. The brand was brought to the forefront of hip-pop culture when Mr. West used Tisci to help design the artwork for Watch The Throne.
'Ye also wore Givenchy for the majority of the WTT tour and single-handedly made this season's Givenchy Rottweiler shirt and sweater the "it" items of the collection.
PHOTOS: Givenchy Warms Up For Spring As Winter Collection Sells Out!
For the upcoming spring/summer 2012 season, Tisci moved away from the Rottweiler motif in favor of the "Birds of Paradise" theme.
The colorful representation of birds and their feathers are displayed on almost the entire collection. Most of the items in the collection are for men, but the motif was definitely sprinkled into the women's collection with the graphic being on three bags and two skirts.
PHOTOS: Gisele Is The Supermodel Of Spring 2012 In Campaigns For Versace & Givenchy
The collection may not be as "in your face" as the snarling rottweiler, but we still think it will fly off of retailers shelves.
You can take a look at the Birds of Paradise collection and prices in the gallery above.

Plot Summary:
The latest chapter of the groundbreaking saga that began with 2000's hit sci-fi film "Pitch Black" and 2004's "The Chronicles of Riddick" reunites writer/director David Twohy ("A Perfect Getaway," "The Fugitive") and star Vin Diesel (the "Fast and Furious" franchise, "XXX"). Diesel reprises his role as the antihero Riddick, a dangerous, escaped convict wanted by every bounty hunter in the known galaxy.
The infamous Riddick has been left for dead on a sun-scorched planet that appears to be lifeless. Soon, however, he finds himself fighting for survival against alien predators more lethal than any human he's encountered. The only way off is for Riddick to activate an emergency beacon and alert mercenaries who rapidly descend to the planet in search of their bounty.
The first ship to arrive carries a new breed of merc, more lethal and violent, while the second is captained by a man whose pursuit of Riddick is more personal. With time running out and a storm on the horizon that no one could survive, his hunters won't leave the planet without Riddick's head as their trophy.
Riddick also sees the return of Karl Urban ("Star Trek," "The Bourne Supremacy") as Vaako and introduces to the series Jordi Molla ("Bad Boys II," "Colombiana") as Santana, the arrogant captain of the mercenary ship; Matt Nable ("Killer Elite") as Boss Johns, a man looking for answers; Katee Sackhoff (TV's "Battlestar Galactica") as the Nordic mercenary Dahl; and Bokeem Woodbine ("Total Recall") as bounty hunter Moss. Rounding out the cast are Dave Bautista ("The Scorpion King 3: Battle for Redemption"), Conrad Pla ("Immortals"), Raoul Trujillo ("Apocalypto"), Nolan Funk (TV's "Aliens in America") and two-time Grammy Award-nominated singer Keri Hilson.

Fellow coders,
It's planned to design and integrate to the API and the SDK a workflow to somehow authentify a dedicated server on a 3rd party app.
Typical use case: you have a cloud application (eg. a centralized records database), and dedicated servers (or more exactly controllers of dedicated servers like ManiaLive) send you records ; the problem here is to make sure than when you receive a request on behalf of server "some_dedicated_login", it's actually coming from that particular dedicated server.
It's a bit similar to ManiaConnect (which, among other things, allows to authentify a player on a 3rd party app) but for dedicated servers.
The details of the implentation are yet to be finished, but I'm creating this topic to let you know about it.
As always, any feedback is appreciated.

I did this in Gimp and would appreciate some more artistic people's feedback
Not to bump my own thread, but given the SOPA thing, did I alter this enough for it to be considered a derivative work or am I just pirating now?
I thought about it, and the best I could think to do is to show by example. So I made this. You should get a trial version of Photoshop, sir. I think it's completely functional and free for a month or so.
Photoshop CS3 and above will open this PSD.
The important bit, though, is that I recorded and tutorialized it every step of the way as I was making it. So you can see how I did it and hear why and other random tidbits of hopefully useful information.
You sir, are a genius!
Thank you for taking the time to make it and show me some good ideas. That, and making my idea look 100% better
I'm only sorry that it didn't occur to me earlier that you were using GIMP. Hopefully it was still helpful conceptually.
Don't worry about it. I am still becoming familiar with GIMP, and not as familiar as Photoshop. However, the ideas that you showed, your way of setting up different layers, as well adding some more original work to the work, are all really helpful techniques.
Thank you again for your time and work on that tutorial. I was surprised to see the video and even more surprised to see your take on the idea.
If I am ever in LA, I will definitely get you a soda or something for your work Hey, you asked for a drink

I operate on a short fuse. For some reason I am convinced I used to be different - patient, free-spirited.
I am not sure if it's work and family making me grouchy or if everyone naturally turns cranky with each passing year.
Hopefully it's not a normal thing. And even more hopefully I want to get back to being that free-spirited girl.
I want to be the girl my husband fell in love with, and the same one who could befriend anyone-no matter who they were. I want to go back to being artistic and courageous, not worrying what other people think or what they will say about me later.
But for some reason I think that girl is gone, she is replaced with a more responsible adult. This sounds kind of lame, like I have deteriorated into an old person without consent. Though I look forward to the day when I have silver hair and retire, I have to start acting young again right now-before my youthfulness is gone.
Each day I wake up scornful of the long list of things to do. When in reality I need to embrace each day and experience it to the fullest. This message is easy to write, but not so easy to live by.
I guess the reason why I want to change my attitude is because I see it rubbing off on my husband and son. It's like that episode on Cougar Town where one nice thing done to somebody brings positive things all the way around the circle. But the same bad energy passes around as well.
There is a certain amount of responsibility involved, meaning I have to put on a smile and think of something nice to say. But once I do that- it's out there and continues to spread. Maybe it will bring good things back to me, or just make somebody feel special for a moment-but I think it would be worth it.
Maybe we should all try to smile more and say nice things. Then maybe, we could get back to feeling how we used to be, like life is working in our favor and there is no reason to fight against it.

Could you explain the apparent contradiction between Powerlifting and Weightlifting training methodologies in relation to the squat. I appreciate that frequent maximums in the techniqual lifts are possible and necessary due to the high skill and speed components of those movements.
From my observations however I notice that most top powerlifters squat only twice per week and only once to maximum. I accept that the use of supportive suits, wraps and a more advantageous bar position allow a heavier relative maximum (and therefore induce greater CNS fatigue) but how can weightlifters who follow the Bulgarian model progress with daily squatting to maximum?
I remember hearing that IA actually considered removing squats from his programs assuming that the stimulus from the clean recovery was sufficient?

Sorry for not answering you right away. I just now read your post. I, too, have read that Abajiev foresaw the day that squatting might be dropped. Yet, when he said it he was unprepared to make that move. I think I understand where he was coming from, but I, too, am unprepared to make that move. I think because it is purely theorhetical and not ready to stand the test... especially for us who are so far behind the curve.
By the way, we don't squat max every session, nor everyday, nor every other day. But that doesn't preclude us from squatting a max in a session and even coming back and setting another one at the end of said session. Let us be very clear... there are NO restoratives, no performance enhancers here in use. It's one's own desire to push the limit that comes to the fore. That and maybe a little timely shove by coach or competition by one's training partners, and/or the goals you set that you desperately want to reach that constantly keeps pushing you to attain. For the squat (and basically for both lifts) it is not too hard to determine what one has in his "tank" at any particular session. So one goes accordingly. Hopefully, that will be at a pretty good level.... let's call it near max. Then, when the ducks appear lined in a row, when the desire becomes paramount... you go for it. I think under the Bulgarian system this holds true for not only squatting but for the lifts too. There are just too many examples from Bulgaria, Greece, Turkey, etc to back this up.
As for powerlifting I do not feel qualified to answer. Nor do I want to. Powerlifting does not interest me.

I dare someone to create a transcript of that interview :) I have yet to be able to sit there and listen to it, brilliant as I assume it is. Maybe I will do it this evening, if I drink some crazy sauce.
In the first couple of sentences he mentions Ekaterina Thanou as a great example of his current ideas, who as we know tested positive for steroids a year later just prior to the 2004 Olympics and embarrassed her country. So the video gets off to a great start.
Bah, I decided to give it a shot. Here's beginning of the video. Â
First of all I would like to thank the Weightlifting Federation for inviting me here. This material that I have prepared for you today is the same material that I lectured on in front of the Greece Committee last spring.
They specifically asked me to present my material because one of their athletes, Ekaterina Thanou, was using this method of training and has achieved incredible results. By using these methods she has ranked 3rd in the world in the 100m sprint and last year she was one of the world's best athletes.
If you pay attention and logically think about what I am saying you will see that this methods is applicable to almost any sport. But we will be concentrating on weightlifting.
I have been asking myself a question, why do such countries as Brazil have incredible achievements in football, considering that these countries do not have stable sports methods or academics in sport development. And yet they have better results in comparison to other countries such as Germany or Russia which have been studying sports as an academic subject for a very long time. The other question that I have been asking myself is why universal athletes good in different disciplines do not exist anymore. Athletes do only one discipline and do it well, but it is almost impossible to be good in a lot of disciplines at the same time. Athletes that train in many different disciplines have mediocre results.
The last question that I have been asking myself is about animals. They don't have various degrees of intensity, 70% or 80%, they only have performance of 100% all of the time. Whatever animals do, they do it their best and at 100% and this is the way they survive. Tonight I will try to answer all these questions in my lecture.
Please excuse me with the simpleness of those examples (referring to a chart) but everytime I talk with opponents who do not share my point of view, I have found that this is a simple method of explaining the way I think and they way muscles work, and this is a simple way to present it graphically even though it is not an academical way. As you can see this is a train with coaches which is performing a certain function. We can compare this to a group of muscles, or to a muscle fiber which also performs some kind of duty. It also has dynamic function. Naturally there is a difference between a living organism and this machinery, and I will try to talk about that. The smoke indicates that this is a functioning machinery. Those here are the same engines, but they are not functioning. When this machinery is at work, it is using up its resources – energetic as well as plastic. When the resources are emptied out, then there is a signal sent to the central control unit. On its behalf it contacts those energy depots which have the energy which the machine needs in order to continue working, and those depots put the necessary energy back into the machinery. The little ones are not active right now because they did not send a message saying that their resources need to be refilled, and that is why they are not functioning at the moment. This is the reverse situation. As you can see, those two smaller engines are working at the moment, it is because they have communicated the need for their depots to be refilled, so naturally the central control unit sends whatever they need back into them to function. This is the precise way that a human body, human muscles, would function. When there is a lack of energy, there is a signal sent to the brain, which on its behalf would provide them with what they need to function through the circulation system. Up to here, the mechanism by which they work is absolutely identical. But the difference between the living organism and the machinery shown here is as follows. Now we have switched on the little trains. This is a law in organics that the function builds the organ, or the muscle (the body becomes its function). And when they function, they form new structures. On the example shown, they are growing. First of all, this is the coal storage. If we're talking about trains, it will extend its size. If they enlarge their size… (trails off, and draws a picture of a cell) This is a human cell, and in the cytoplasm the organelles are swimming which have this shape and form….they store energy… Going back to the train, this extra coal means that the number of mitochondria in the cell have grown larger, so that the size of the whole cell will change and become bigger. Which practically means, the more energy it receives, the more it grows and the stronger the engine will become.
As well as the change of the cells and everything grows, the contents in the cells changes and they become faster and stronger. The quantity of blood cells is also growing, so there will be more blood provided, and they supply more oxygen. So those structures are making the muscle system stronger and also bigger. (21 minute mark)
At this point, the two really start talking to each other a great deal in sorting out what he is trying to present to the audience. I can see that it's a lot simpler to watch the video and take what you can from it.

Right Chris. In particular, the notion of conservation of recovery resources -- investing more of what you have available in the training stressors that produce the greatest gains -- seems valuable to me, regardless of whatever hormonal status and specific rate of recovery the athlete is operating under. Your own training strikes me as profiting from that concept.

I really hope that you're talking about slaves as a reference, and not because you play skavens......
No skaven player should be allowed to complain about brokeness. Even more when complaining about things that haven't been tested yet, and that HAVE weakness. I'm not talking about manouvers or steadfast. I'm talking about models expensive points-wise, with Initiative 2 and Leadership 7, surrounded with low model count units.
Low initiative is a GREAT weakness. Not only in Combat, but against the well known Ini-test spells (wich skaven have 1 that remove models, if i'm not wrong). Sum the big bases to that, and you have a unit that can be killed with a non powered pit of shades or a pendulum (or the skaven ini-test spell).
Leadership 7 is another great weakness. They can be panicked with ease. Just kill the easier to kill units near, and make them pass the test or run.
Yes, you can use General's leadership and BSB re-roll, but Ogres would have a hard time protecting their characters from cannons, stone-throwers and so on, because the low model count of the units, so easier to remove the LoS save (remember that the unit's champion doesn't count for LoS purposes, so to protect a character one Ogre player should protect his characters with at least a 6 model unit, counting full command).
So..... Good? Yes. Broken. Absolutely not.
Tools to deal with them in no-close combat.
Death magic: Purple sun. The signature spell too.
Metal magic: Obvious. Signature spell.
Shadows: Pendulum, Pit of shades.
Skaven magic: The ini-test spell.
Cannons, stone-throwers, Bolt-throwers. Multi-wound warmachines.
Handguns. Massive shooting. High strenght shooting (Jezzails).
These things don't require a special tactical genius to use. The mournfangs are not like an HPA or a hydra (who have high chances of killing an entire 3 model unit in a single round, obviously taking some wounds in return...).
Wich in fact means that ogre bulls are 4 gnoblars cheaper, and not just 2.5 :P. With a 6 man unit, equipped with ironfist, and guessing that this upgrade has the cost of a gnoblar, you save 43 gnoblars respect the current army book.

Hey fans, Harbs on Letterman tonight. Flacco was great the other night on the show. Go Ravens
Hey fans, Harbs on Letterman tonight. Flacco was great the other night on the show. Go Ravens
I saw the show and after saw Jacoby Jones on the Jimmy Kimble Show. Both were great, I recorded JK show so I could watch both. With all this love going round, first Jones loves Baltimore than Boldin wanting to retire as a Raven. Reed showing his love etc. I think negotiations for Flacco will be fine. Rice to me is a real chance to dump a big salary. I would trade him for a number 2 and free up Cap but also Williams will not be a loss as Webb returns. Nghata and T Sizzle should take a renegotiated cut and all will be well. Flacco will from this day forward be one of the best in the game and will be good for at least 8 more years.
So I saw Jones and he was hilarious . Did any of you think that he would not only make the winning catch against Denver but also make the winning plays against SF. also do you think the guy from last year would have made those plays. You know the guy whom we shall remain nameless. The guy who dropped the big pass against NE.lol
I enjoyed when he defended Flacco (Smokin' Joe as he called him) as having deserved the MVP award (11 TDs and No Picks).
Then he had me almost in tears, Joe deserved the car, but Jacoby wants to borrow it! Jacoby said he was going to "put some rims" on the car too!
He was like a kid having fun!

How will Burk's retirement affect Joe. This could be interesting.Birk
Just read a good article about the Ravens center in waiting. He has been working out for weeks getting ready to take over.
Well now that the Ravens have all but ensured their collapse with giving Flacco all that money. They will no doubt loose Kruger, their young inside lb, and a few others. Reed will be gone as well. You may score 24 points a game but giving Flacco the world, unlike Brady who is a team player, your guy has destroyed you for years to come. The Ravens will need to score 30 or more a game and that won't happen to much. I see a 4 win year next year. It seems the Ravens will be one and done like in 2000.
Obvious troll is obvious. You dig up this thread 3 pages deep to post this garbage? Sad.
I hope nobody incorrectly interprets your post as an attempt for actual discourse.
working out for weeks you say? WEEKS?
Talk about dedication, hope he doesn't get too strong!
belongs here too
your use of obvious is obvious. You must obviously see that Flacco has all but made the Ravens also rans for years to come. Maybe your team can draft another Ray with the high draft choices you will undoubtedly get the next few years. Kind of reminds me of the Testavetti (sp)days. I can't wait to see Miami give the Ravens their lunches next year.
find somebody else to play along. bye
find somebody else to play along. bye
Obviously, you don't know the facts either. You don't seem to comprehend the difference between an annual salary and the way contracts are calculated as to their Cap figure.
From all reports, the Flacco cap figure will be about 12-15 Million. That is around 12% of the total cap of 121 Million - not 20%. Furthermore, that cap percentage will be less than Suggs' or Ngata's by the way....Joe Flacco has 20% of the teams salary cap...
And exactly how will this make the Ravens weak? People like you said that last year when JJ left. When Grubbs left. When Zibby left. When Haruki left. How'd that work out in 2012?...and this will make the Ravens weak. Watch and see...
Most of the national "experts" have said that Ellerbee is the critical piece on the defense. Kruger played well, but Ellerbee has a more critical role and was the leading tackler and playmaker on the 24th ranked D.
However, times have changed. For years, the Ravens had a dominating defense, but never enough offense. Now, we have an offense that features two weapons: 1) a deep strike capability with the strongest arm and most accurate deep ball passer in the NFL, and a punishing offense that also lives on the 80-yard, 10-play drive. Add that to a defense that gave up lots of yards, but was in the top 5 in red zone defense and you have the makings of another competitive team.
It would be interesting to see you defend this astounding pronouncement!...The Ravens are in cap hell now.
Pleassssssssse do not feed this troll. He is a Florida resident who loves to bash. Now one thing I do see though is probably the toughest schedule in the NFL next year. It will be tough but our defense will be better not worse and our offense will score points. I'm a big Rice fan but the life exp of a rb is 4 to 5 years and with Pierce coming on and a strong group of RB's in this draft I might want to trade him for a 2nd rounder. Just a thought and it fees up cap
Actually, I believe that Pierce, Rainey and Rice will complement each other nicely...and if the two young 'uns continue to improve, it will extend Rice's usefulness.
As a RB nears 30, the fact that Rice can catch the ball in space and make defenders miss means another weapon will be available.

Star: Tensui
Origin: Na-Nal
Events: Island Liberation War
Position: Caretaker
Born: IS 276
Death: N/A
Rikie is a woman from Na-Nal whose husband was caught up in an unfortunate turn of events. He had obtained the Rune of Punishment, and died soon after he had used it. Rikie lives in the Ruins of Obel as the caretaker with her son, Rakgi, and knows a lot about the Rune of Punishment, but she gains the strength to leave that place once Lazlo, who is the present bearer of the rune, comes to Rikie to know more of the rune. Rikie is completely unafraid of the rune and does not mind in the slightest if the rune chose her next, she actually wished to be near the rune so that she could understand how it affected her husband better. After the war, Rikie returns to Na-Nal with her son, surrendering the position of the ruins caretaker to Travis. - Matt620

Without these two who knows what we'd be doing now. But if we hadn't gone out to play and shoot some photos of our newly engaged friends then we may never have found our love for photographing people. We owe our careers and relationships we've built over the past four years to them. We love you guys.

Strategic Plan:
Policy & Issue Information
The Department and the State Board have developed clear and detailed priorities to guide their work. More Information
State & Federal Policy Statements
The Department was created by the 35th General Assembly in 1913 and was originally called the Department of Public Instruction. The current name was adopted in 1986.
In its early years, the Department was charged with working with the many small, isolated school buildings to build a formal system of public education that included organized districts with defined duties and boundaries, as well as specific qualifications for teachers. While the state department was established to provide oversight, local schools maintained the authority to set many of the rules and requirements for their own students. This system of "local responsibility" - based on the belief that local residents have the greatest interest in assuring their children's success - continues today. As the state progressed over the decades with greater diversity in business, industry, and population, the public education system evolved to reflect and encompass those changes. In the mid 1960s, a system of 15 public, two-year community colleges was established to provide more students the opportunity for continued education and training beyond high school. In the mid-1970s, the system of Area Education Agencies (AEAs) was developed to provide regional support for local schools and their teachers. Originally, the community colleges and the AEAs shared the same service are boundaries. In recent years, several AEAs have merged to provide greater efficiency in regions with declining population

This one was ugly, so I'll keep it brief. Hernandez was as good as advertised. He went the distance, striking out 11 and walking only 2. Michael Kay beat this point into the ground, but he came close to one-hitting the Yankees. Fortunately, Chone Figgins is bad at baseball and lost a routine pop up off Colin Curtis' bat in the lights. After eking out 4 runs against Lee yesterday the Bombers were shutout this time.
With any luck, CC Sabathia can make short work of the M's tomorrow, and right the Yankee ship. The Mariners will turn back into the Mariners in the day game, sending the abysmal Ryan Rowland-Smith to the mound. Let's hope that happens and the offense uses the extra time to look at video of the past 2 games because the team will draw Lee and Hernandez again next week in Seattle.
The only good news to come out of tonight is that the Rays beat the Red Sox, keeping the Yankees one game up in the division.

Stories From This Week's Episode
May 24, 2013
A Church Divided
Is homosexuality compatible with Christianity? This question is debated fiercely in A Church Divided, a television documentary narrated by Peter Coyote and hosted by Scott Shafer. It takes viewers behind the scenes of the United Methodist Church's global convention in Tampa, Florida. At stake is the church's official policy on gays and lesbians. Progressive Methodists want to amend church doctrine declaring homosexuality incompatible with Christian teaching, but conservative Methodists want to retain the church's stance calling homosexuality a sin. As the U.S. Supreme Court stands poised to decide the future of same-sex marriage, A Church Divided is a timely examination of a complex and divisive issue.
