NEW PORT RICHEY — Despite receiving most of what it wanted in its 2014 budget, members of the Pasco Sheriff's Office are disappointed at what the shortfall may mean: a further burden on detention deputies.
County commissioners approved a $1.2 billion budget for fiscal year 2014, which began Oct.1. The sheriff's office received $91 million but had asked for about $93 million.
The sheriff's office will be able to target key projects in the new budget, while others will have to wait.
The first and likely most important is $1.9 million to staff the third floor of the Land O' Lakes Jail to ease overcrowding at the facility.
Twenty-seven civilian members will be hired for the detention center's control room, allowing sworn deputies to move from the room and be deployed within the jail. Also, four new detention corporals and four new detention sergeants will be added.
Despite the relatively small gap in the two budgets, sheriff's office officials believe it may put detention deputies in a precarious position.
"Based on current inmate projections, the provided budget may not fund us to sustain our detention operations," Pasco Sheriff Chris Nocco said. "Thus, we would have to pull resources from law enforcement functions if our projections stay on course. Overall, this has put us one major incident away from a fiscal hardship."
The sheriff's office contends they were not given funding for operating expenses, which includes food, paper products or other ancillary items needed to run the jail.
In May, the facility meant to hold 1,432 inmates reached its highest ever inmate count of 1,550. Trends point to the jail's population continuing to rise in the coming years.
The difference in budget amounts also means the agency will not be able to purchase additional ammunition, uniforms, and computer software among other items, sheriff's office spokesman Kevin Doll said.
County Commission Chairman Ted Schrader said there were several factors in why the sheriff's office didn't receive the full amount it requested.
Residential property values remained flat, which meant less tax dollars were collected. There were also raises that have been given to most county employees, including law enforcement members, for the first time in six years.
Finally, the county had to contribute nearly $4 million to the Florida Retirement System, he said.
"The board's belief is that we provided the majority of the requests of the sheriff and he's most appreciative of that," Schrader said. "And it's going to be the sheriff's decision how he invests in those resources within those appropriations.
"The sheriff and I have a good rapport and good conversation and he understands that predicament that the board's in."
In addition to staffing the jail's third floor, the sheriff's office will use $900,000 to fund 33 new vehicles for detectives, forensic technicians and warrant officers. Detective vehicles haven't been addressed in the budget since 2006.
The agency will use specially equipped Ford Fusions in an effort to keep costs down.
Another key need was funding at least six nurses for the jail, including a psychiatric nurse for those battling addiction while incarcerated.
Maj, Ed Beckman, court services bureau commander, who is in charge of the jail, said his group will make do.
"We're going to make it because we have to make it," Beckman said. "We're a lean organization anyway."
He said when compared to the sheriff's office budgets in Hillsborough and Pinellas counties – Hillsborough has a proposed $376.5 million budget for 2014, while Pinellas has an approved $227 million budget — Pasco does well.
"They're a little bit bigger, but if you quantify, we do a pretty good job at really stretching the dollar," Beckman said. "I think by always having lean budgets, we've just been trained and accustomed to being creative on stretching the dollar as far as we can for the taxpayer."

Welcome to my home on the Internet. I will try to keep it less cluttered than my office. . . but no guarantees.
It may be a bit gaudy, as far as writer websites go, with large type and lots of photographs, but it fits me.
I'm a fantasy and science fiction writer who sometimes dabbles in military fiction and mysteries. My home is filled with dogs and books.
And I wear bedroom slippers to work everyday.
I live in a tiny Midwestern town that has a gas station, a Dollar General, and a pizza place that has exceedingly slow service.
I'm always working on a new project or three...and have three novels just released from the awesome WordFire Press.
At the moment, I'm tinkering with a murder mystery set in an even tinier town than mine...and because of my plot, the population is shrinking.
On the editing front, I tackle anthologies from time-to-time, and do some work for the wonderful

He never explained how Obama's policies caused these changes in the economy, and merely presented evidence of economic growth in the past four years. I don't see how the fiscally irresponsible policies are to credit for the small recovery so far, ad even if they are, how will they be paid for? (Answer: Higher taxes). All of his "big talk" hasn't become reality, and he managed to flip-flop twice in the second debate.
Bucket said:
Furthermore, "tax" is not a four-letter word.
Bucket said:
According to them, all spending is fat to be trimmed and there's no concept of investing in the future of a country. That's what really pays off in the long run, not cutting taxes for people who don't need it.

The better question is: What was the point of Obama's statement to begin with?

... he clarified that the point really is to compare the military's capabilities rather than how big their pile of hardware is. For that same reason, they probably maintain an ability to use horses in some capacity too.

That makes it sound as though he thinks bayonets are as outdated of a concept in our military as horses are, which isn't the case.
Bucket said:
If you get the point, why use tortured logic to make Obama's comment seem less pertinent than it was?
Bucket said:
To the layman, the word "bayonet" evokes an image of colonial warfare that's long dead. Point made, circle gets the square.
Caffeine Freak said:
No, but the way he juxtapositioned it ("horses and bayonets") implies a pre-1900's era of warfare.

The Meridian City Council Tuesday accepted a grant from the U.S. Department of Justice.
It will pay for the hiring of a police officer for duty on city school campuses.
"The school system will decide where that officer is during the school day. But he will have full policing authority on a campus. As you know, their security does not have the full policing authority that a Meridian police officer has. It's no impact to our budget," said Mayor John Robert Smith.
The City Council also approved $20,000 to buy the former Con Sheehan building in the African American historic district in Meridian. It will be restored using another grant.

There is something about descending into New York City that never fails to make me feel a little warm and fuzzy inside. Nestled into my window seat of a boeing 747, I had the perfect view as the sun was setting over the skyline. I have seen and taken far too many pictures of these buildings, but seeing them, at this time of day, can never really compare. I couldn't help but be excited about my trip ahead and all that this wonderful city has to offer. Another wedding destination (I wonder if I could add 'wedding guest' to my C.V.) and a city that I am always excited about revisiting, time after time.

Continental Resources achieves record oil production
Buoyed by record oil production, Continental Resources Inc. on Wednesday reported third-quarter earnings of $44.1 million, or 24 cents a share.
That includes more than $115 million in unrealized adjustments for an unrealized loss on derivatives, property impairment charges and costs related to the company's move from Enid to Oklahoma City.
Continental's adjusted net income was 87 cents a share, which was in line with analysts' estimates.
Continental earned $439.1 million, or $2.44 a share, for the third quarter of 2011.
The company produced nearly 103,000 barrels of oil equivalent a day in the just-completed quarter, a record that was 55 percent higher than last year.
"We expect to achieve 2012 production growth guidance of 57 percent to 59 percent," CEO Harold Hamm said. "Other positive trends we expect to continue are reduced drilling and completion cycle times, and low production costs.
"2013 is shaping up as another year of production growth with efficiency gains," Hamm said. "We expect 30-to-35 percent production growth next year, the first year in our new five-year plan aimed at tripling production and proved reserves."

Arsenal had a largely excellent defence last season, save for the obvious hiccups. But with Sagna now confirmed to be leaving the club this summer and serious doubts over the future of Thomas Vermaelen, it looks as if reinforcements will be needed.
The name Serge Aurier has oft been mentioned in relation to the right back slot. And whether or not Carl Jenkinson steps up to the plate at right back next season, Arsenal will need another body in there.
As for the central position, we think Vermaelen will call it quits at Arsenal this summer so Arsene could well need another centre back to boot.
The Metro today suggests that Arsenal have identified just such a man:
Arsenal open talks with Gremio over Brazilian defender Bressan
Arsenal have held talks with Brazilian side Gremio over a deal for their talented defender Bressan.
The 21-year-old is rated as one of the best youngsters in Serie A and Arsene Wenger wants to bring him to the Emirates Stadium this summer.
It's always exciting to get a Brazilian in – even a defender – and this guy is getting great plaudits in his homeland. He only moved to Gremio in 2013 and has played just 18 league games for them. But such is the demand for talent in Europe these days that when such potential is identified, the money generally does the talking.
At 21 the World Cup has come too early for this lad but we would fully expect to see him playing for Brazil in future.Follow @soccersweep10

Sir Harold Kroto, winner of the 1996 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, will present "Science, Society and Sustainability," an inspirational lecture on all aspects of science, on Friday, February 19, at 7 p.m. in the Townsend Center for the Performing Arts on the University of West Georgia campus.
School groups, teachers, students and the curious will enjoy this unique opportunity. The event is free and the community is invited to attend. Seating is limited and a ticket will be required for admission. Tickets can be picked up at the TCPA during box office hours Monday through Friday.
Kroto, one of chemistry's best known scientists, is a Francis Eppes Professor of Chemistry at Florida State University.
Kroto, while at the University of Sussex, and Richard Smalley and Bob Curl of Rice University, discovered the Buckminsterfullerene structure or Buckyballs in 1985 during a joint research project. Their discovery lead to the Nobel Prize in 1996.
The discovery was named after the architect Richard Buckminster Fuller's geodesic dome structure, which bears a resemblance to the Buckyballs.
Kroto will talk about the importance of science in the classroom and in our everyday life. A speaker with a sense of humor, his stories will both entertain and fascinate.
The event is sponsored by the UWG science and math outreach program, Improving Motivation, Performance and Attitudes of Children and Teachers or IMPACT, and is funded by the Alice Huffard Richards Fund of the Community Foundation of West Georgia.
The Townsend Center Box Office is open Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. For ticket information, call 678-839-4722.

2. LinkedIn users are more likely to watch soap operas: If you spen a lot of time using LinkedIn to network, you're TWICE as likely to watch soaps compared to the national average. Maybe because you're home looking for a job?
3. If you send more than 100 text messages a day, there's a good chance you're a terrible person: At least according to one recent study, which found you're 30% less likely to have strong feeling about living a quote, "ethical, principaled life."
The study looked at 2,300 first year psychology students at the University of Winnipeg, and believe it or not, almost a third of them said they text more than 200 times a day.

South Sudanese forces are continuing a pullout from Sudan's main Heglig oil field after tensions over the incursion threatened to ignite war between the two countries.
South Sudan's Information Minister Barnaba Marial Benjamin told reporters in Juba that "our troops are still withdrawing; it will take three days."
He said the withdrawal was in response to the request of the UN Security Council and the African Union.
Border clashes between Sudan and South Sudan escalated last week with waves of air strikes hitting the South, and Juba seizing the Heglig oil hub on April 10.
U.S. President Barack Obama on April 20 said, "the presidents of Sudan and South Sudan must have the courage to return to the table and negotiate and resolve these issues peacefully."

Facebook is the 'Best run company in technology,' VC says
A Fan of Facebook
Ben Horowitz, co-founder of Opsware and founding partner of venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, said on stage at the Web 2.0 Summit in San Fransisco today that Facebook is the best run company in the entire technology industry. He also praised Mark Zuckerberg specifically, describing him as one of the "best young CEOs in the business."
What is Facebook's key to success? According to Ben, it's because Mark and his team are so thoughtful about product strategy.
Ben says that when new hires arrive at Facebook, they commonly must accept lower titles than is standard for them. It's a bold precedent established by Mark that acts as a filter—he doesn't want people who are focused on status, he wants people who are focused on building great products.
Do you think that Facebook is the best run company in technology?
Founder = CEO
Ben also believes that the founders of startups are best suited to be the initial CEOs of their companies. His VC firm prefers founding CEOs because of their "historical knowledge that is almost impossible to replicate."
Founding CEOs, Ben argues, have been through every product decision, every hire, and are the originator's of the startup's vision. He also says that the founders are best equipped to avoid mistakes because they have the specific experience of making mistakes in the startup and learning from them.
However, if a founder does want or need to hire a CEO, they should at least look for one who has at one time founded their own company.

SEATTLE – The No. 12 Washington State University women's rowing team battled the No. 5 Huskies in dual action, but fell short in all five women's races Saturday morning.
"The varsity boats raced well today," WSU head coach Jane LaRiviere said. "We are looking forward to getting back to work and getting ready for another big test next weekend."
In one of the closest races of the day, the Cougar second varsity eight (bow - Mihaela-Teodora Berindei, Kayla Wakulich, Carter Marks, Megan McDonald, Kerry Hassall, Noel Christiansen, Emily Starkel, Ieva Adomaviciute, coxswain – Emily Boquet) finished half of a second behind Washington with a time of 6:38.46. The Husky second varsity eight recorded a time of 6:37.80. The Cougar second varsity eight closed the gap with the Huskies from last week by two seconds.
In the first race of the morning WSU's varsity eight (bow – Isabella Watt, Kendall Boliba, Mickey Aylard, Nicole Hare, Mollie McCabe, Jordan Watson, Morgan Cathrea, Elise Jones, coxswain – Sarah Wu) took second behind Washington and finished with a time of 6:22.60. The Huskies finished in 6:17.52, only five seconds ahead of WSU. Washington State's varsity eight closed the gap with UW from last week by three seconds.
Washington took first and second place in the varsity four race with WSU's boats following close behind. The Cougar varsity four (bow – Kim Coon, Chloe Rogers, Alex Waddell, Hannah DeVos, coxswain – Rebecca Burns) finished third in 7:20.69 and the second varsity four (bow – Ella Odland, Gina Head, Ashlee Bonahoom, Alyssa Rumann, coxswain – Julia Monroe) finished fourth in 7:29.30. The Husky varsity four and second varsity four finished in 7:12.51 and 7:15.75 respectively.
To close the day, the Cougar women's open eight (bow – Katelyn Maley, Chloe Payne, Molly Culwell, Erin Schuster, JoAnne Bates, Katrina Tarrant, Mallory Wordell, Kellen Srb, coxswain – Hannah Jacobs) took third with a time of 7:13.46. Washington's second open eight won the race and finished in 7:06.95, nearly seven seconds ahead of the Cougars and less than three seconds ahead of Washington's open eight (7:09.75).
In the novice eight event, WSU took third and fourth place. The second novice eight (bow – Anneliese Bruenning, Alexa LeMaster, Chelsea Gorman, Kalina Balcer – Miller, Taylor Heppner, Sydni Meyer, Rachael Hall, Malia Frame, coxswain – Ashley Kiehn) finished with a time of 7:17.06 and the novice eight (bow – Brittany Brooks, Lori VerMurlen, Hunter Jones, Kacie Hillery, Jessi Howe, Jordyn Erno, Christina Larsen, Hannah Erickson, coxswain – Zoey Haver) recorded a time of 7:45.28.

The index redirect, being more specific, must be listed before non-www to www canonical redirect. That will fix the issue.
Your index redirect can be coded a bit more efficiently. The .* part should be replaced with a better pattern. Luckily the code has been posted hundreds of times in this forum.
Is the report a 'live' report? I wouldn't think so. I would allow at least a week or more for the status to update.

Also, this Bing SEO scan is some new program that you install to your computer,and then it does a real time scan of your site looking for "SEO" errors. I found out about this app here at webmasterworld the other day.
I am assuming that since I can make changes and then rescan my site live, any changes should show up with the next batch of results.

If you do have a dedicated IP address, then put it into the third rule's RewriteCond with the literal periods escaped as shown above. Replace the broken pipe "�" character with a solid pipe character before use; Posting on this forum modifies the pipe characters.
I'm not sure why (specifically) you said "Wow" but that ".htm error-report versus .html pattern" issue is a good example of something we repeat fairly often around here: mod_rewrite is utterly unforgiving, and one little typo can cause a rule not to work or effectively knock your server offline -- or worse, it can slowly and quietly eat away at your search rankings due to some unexpected and hard-to-detect side-effect. So intense concentration and attention to detail is critical.
I do have a dedicated IP for the site that I pay $2 a month for. I am curious about the IP rewrite. What does it do?
The code will redirect to canonicalize any non-canonical request which *does* include the correct 'base' domain, and reject all other requests unless the request is by IP address or the HTTP Host request header is blank (as it will be for true HTTP/1.0 requests). Since named-based virtual hosts cannot be accessed by true HTTP/1.0 clients (because they require the Hosts header to work) or by IP address (because it is shared among many sites), these provisions aren't needed if you don't have a dedicated IP. (Read this carefully, it's a rather complex statement).
For named-based servers, with the lines I mentioned omitted, the code simply reverts to saying, "If the requested hostname isn't exactly "www.example.com", then redirect to www.example.com".
I had a quick question for the readers on if this is an appropriate robots.txt file:
User-agent: *
Disallow: /forums/index.php?action=help*
Disallow: /forums/index.php?action=search*
Disallow: /forums/index.php?action=login*
Disallow: /forums/index.php?action=register*
Disallow: /forums/index.php?action=admin*
Disallow: /forums/index.php?action=post*
Disallow: /forums/index.php?action=who*
disallow: /forums/index.php?action=printpage
I've had a big problem with getting my pages in Google's non-supp lately, even with really good content. Not sure what is going on.
You only need a wildcard if the wildcard is at the beginning or in the middle, e.g.
Disallow: /*action=post
Disallow: /forums/*action=who
Be aware that the pattern matches from the left, so this will match any action...
Disallow: /*action=
One of the often-overlooked factors in this is that each page needs a *unique* title and description, and both must be relevant to the pages' contents.
There are hundreds of other on- and off-page ranking factors, of course, but this one seems to get overlooked fairly often.
Note that query string and wild-card robots.txt Disallows are not supported by all search engines. It would be a good idea to check all of the robots that are important to you -- visiting their "Webmaster info" pages, and verifying that they support these extensions to the Standard for Robot Exclusion. You may need to add explicit policy records in your robots.txt file for those that do not support these extensions.
My commercial site is outdoors related, and it covers national parks and forests. I then break it down into camping, fishing ,etc. So each page is not going to be exactly its own thing. For example, my page title would be something like "san juan national forest camping", wth meta descriptions about that, and then going to the next page it would be "san juan national forest fishing" as the title and a meta decription about that. Another section on my site would cover say the Roosevelt national forest. Page titles would be "roosevelt national forest camping". They are unique and different content, and I add the national forest part because if I just put "camping" as the title, then I would have tons of pages with the same title. It's all different content though. Google is killing me. It doesn't seem to be a problem for Bing though which has 80% of my images indexed and 80% of my pages in their non-supp. Google? 25 images indexed and 50 pages in the non-supp. Scary. I'm not copying anyone elses content like my competitors, it's all super unique, my own writing, research and site specific images. Despite releasing over 70 new pages of hard fought content the past month, Google has added nothing to it's non-supps from my site. It's frustrating.
Thx for the tip on the wild-card.
Descriptions should be written in a manner that is as far from boiler-plate as possible. Change the words, change the word order, change the sentence order, change the 'tone' -- especially between pages with similar titles and content. "San Juan National Forest Camping" vs. "Camping facilities in San Juan National Forest" or "Campsites in San Juan National Forest," for example. Explore the "keyword spaces" that you have available to you, and change them up!
Your logs and stats can be quite useful here, as the search phrases of visitors landing on your site can and do vary -- and can inform your titling and description-writing decisions.
To be clear, if you're wondering whether I'm recommending that you manually compose unique titles and descriptions for each and every page, the answer is "Yes." If this sounds like too much, then pick a section of your site that you're having trouble with, and try it on a limited basis. If it works to pop those pages out of limbo, then you can decide whether it's worth doing on a wider scale. If not, then at least you'll know that some other factor is likely more important in keeping those pages from performing.
If you're only waiting a month to evaluate new pages' rankings, that's not long enough. Although G returns results almost instantaneously, that's not the case for indexing and ranking updates. The time required to get a page indexed and rank will vary according to your current pages' ranking and the nature and effectiveness of your on-site linking strategy, but 30 days is only long enough if you're a top-ranked site.
70 pages of new content per month also raises a flag: Make sure these pages are not "thin" with fewer than six full paragraphs of information -- Six is not a magic number here, I'm just trying to delineate what I mean by "thin." If your pages are thin, then either fatten them up a bit (with more useful, unique info), or consider combining multiple smaller pages into fewer larger pages based on region, activity, and type of facility (park, forest, monument, trail, etc.).
Also, do be sure that for any given 'page' of content of your site, it can be reached with one and only one canonical URL, with all variations in protocol, domain, subdomain, URL-path, and query strings 301-redirected to that one unique URL. Otherwise, you have the classic "duplicate content" situation, and your multiple URLs will compete with each other for links, traffic, and ranking.
You may read of "duplicate-content penalties" here and in other Webmaster/SEO-related forums. Except in the most egregious cases of intentional content-duplication, there is scant evidence for any actual penalties imposed by search engines, but the self-competing described in the previous paragraph can indeed be self-defeating.
I'll commend the Google Search forum, its library, and the list of threads pinned at its top to you for more information on supplementals, indexing/ranking cycles, and optimization of on- and off-page ranking factors.

Educational Philosophy:
In his book From Orality to Literacy, Walter J. Ong theorizes how and why cultures experience a shift from orality to literacy, pointing out the value of each position on the literacy continuum. Using Ong's metaphor, I believe the writing student takes a similar and sometimes more personal journey from orality toward literacy-in-writing: when intellectual awareness is awakened within an individual, he or she slowly moves forward along the continuum, discovering his/her voice and recognizing diversity in the voices of others. I challenge my students to question their place on the continuum as they (like I) continue to discover who we are as members of a larger community. Although students do exist on different points along the writing-literate continuum, they can each move forward successfully if given the tools with which they learn to construct a strong writing-literate foundation. When students begin to use their writing to communicate knowledge, ideas, and perspectives with each other, multiple discourses are created within the writing classroom. Through this process, students become aware of their power as individuals, as writers, and as synthesizers of information, and they are finally able to recognize, understand, and perhaps even alter the discourses of the classroom, the university, and, ultimately, the society and world in which they live.
Learning Outcomes: Core Learning Outcomes
Every course has a Core Assessment, which is one assignment given in all sections of the course. For En 105 the Core Assessment consists of one final-draft essay from each student's portfolio, chosen by the student, plus a Reflective Essay. Written at the end of term, the Reflective Essay must describe in significant detail the student's strengths and a discussion of opportunities for improvement as revealed in the complete portfolio. The reflective essay must also analyze the student's overall development as a writer over the duration of the semester/term.
Although all students in all sections will present a portfolio that includes evidence of prewriting and multiple drafts, the Core Assessment will consist only of one final-draft essay and the Reflective Essay.

Classroom Rules of Conduct:
Course Topic/Dates/Assignments:
ACCELERATED LEARNING: On most university campuses, a 16-week term is considered a traditional learning format—that is, requirements for successful course completion are met by the end of the 16-week term. An 8-week term is considered an accelerated learning format. The accelerated learning format, which is the format used at Little Rock AFB, does not decrease course content and course requirements by half. Instead, accelerated learning students are expected to meet the same course requirements as traditional learning students in half the time. Because of the complexity of the condensed nature of the course and the detailed demands of the accelerated pace of in-class lecture and activities, homework assignments, and readings assignments, students will receive (on the first day of class) a seven-page detailed Course Outline explaining these activities. Following is a generalized overview of course content:

text: Mirren welcomed at Buckingham Palace 18 Feb 2014 Dame Helen Mirren was finally given the royal thumbs up for her portrayal of The Queen at a Buckingham Palace party in London on Monday night. Share Share Share Story by UTV Staff, Belfast The actress was awarded a BAFTA Fellowship by Prince William, the Queen's grandson, on Sunday, and 24 hours later she was in his company again at the palace.Mirren was welcomed by William's wife, the Duchess of Cambridge, who joked that her husband had referred to the actress as "granny" at the awards ceremony.Last week, a nervous Mirren revealed she hoped that Prince William's presence at the BAFTAs was a sure sign that the royal family liked her Oscar-winning turn as his grandmother in The Queen.She said: "I don't think he'd do it if the royal family felt I had messed up. I hope it's a sign they don't think I messed up. But I don't know, and I will never know for sure."Monday night's Royal Academy of Dramatic Art Reception at Buckingham Palace was also attended by Helena Bonham Carter, director Steve McQueen, Roger Moore, Joan Collins, Dame Angela Lansbury, Ralph Fiennes, Uma Thurman and Joely Richardson.Guests were treated to a performance in the palace's ballroom featuring emerging talent and some of the country's much loved and well known stars.The Queen and her guests watched the performance and were entertained by songs from the musical Oh! What A Lovely War performed by Rada students.They were introduced by Hugh Laurie who welcomed the guests to the short performance and acted as a compere.Speaking about being introduced to the head of state Mirren said: "You're thinking 'its the Queen it's the Queen'," and when asked if she still got starstruck replied: "Of course, even more so I think because I feel self conscious, you know."She added: "I am genuinely always astounded by her aura, her twinkle, her presence. It never fails to surprise me and again it's what everyone says when they meet her - it was what overwhelmed me the first time I met her." © UTV Share Share Share

Rapha Winter Jersey in bright blue. Had to act since Rapha was selling them at 30% off.
So pissed. Bought Shimano 105 chain, broke my f'ing KMC X10 chain ride home. Was out of seat rushing home and then just slammed into front of my bike, lost control and after falling, saw there was no chain on my bike. Another $30 down the drain, just bought the chain 1.5 months ago. Sucks. Hopefully Shimano chain will last longer. KMC quick link just snapped right off. I don't mean it slipped off, it snapped right off the pin.
Did what I should have months ago. Bought a wedge pack for under the saddle. Ordered Genuine Innovation Deluxe kit with a two Vittoria Ultralite tubes.
- Good kit. 3 CO2 cartridges, fancy looking cartridge inflator, two tire levers, patch kit and the wedge pack.
I don't know if I should rub this on my legs or smear it on some pancakes. Smells soooo good.
Ordered some water cages on Ebay for $20 for pair shipped. Destroyed the AL I had before, pant leg somehow caught the end of it and bent it beyond repair. Oh well. Went for one that doesn't have an end that would easily be caught on pant leg if I forgot to tuck it into my sock.
Diadora Jet Racer shoes and a Limar Ultralite Plus helmet.
Finally decided to get this when I got a 20% off coupon. Looks alone will will make me close to being invincible and 10x as fast (IMHO).

I just purchased the same shoes last week. Did yours come with the sole protector? I ended up paying another $25 for two lousy pieces of sheet metal.
That being said they are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn.
Would of came in handy on my 200k Sat, but atleast I'll have it for future rides! Just bought it for $22 shipped. Should have adequate storage, and I really need the map holder for my cue sheets.. I've been happy with my BV saddle bag so I figured why not..

Allergy & acne relief
Posted by Reviewer1739524 on May 05, 2008
I've started taking the about 2 months ago. I have terible allergy problems. So far this year my allergies are much better. I have stopped taking my allergy meds. Also no acne since starting this product.
Posted by Reviewer2516828 on Dec 29, 2008
I bought these mainly for myself, but also for my husband. We had tried them months ago and continued for awhile and then I forgot to reorder. My husband has suffered from acne for most of his life. Now that he's in his 40's it's not as bad, but still has breakouts. I had noticed that he hadn't had any breakouts shortly after starting Dr. Ohhira's and didn't have anymore even after we had ran out and he wasn't taking any for about a month. Recently he started breaking out again and that's why a bought them again. For anyone suffering with acne please try these. Especially teen's, the capsules are easy to swollow and worth the try. Much better that antibiotics!
Best Probiotics I've ever used!
Posted by Reviewer1752031 on Feb 05, 2009
This product has made an amazing difference! I have a spastic colon and irritable bowl. This product regulated my digestive system, remarkably reduces stomach distress, and made my life more enjoyable. It is worth every penny.
Great stuff!
Posted by Reviewer3101860 on May 19, 2009
I haven't been plagued with any vaginal yeast infections since I started taking this stuff.
Posted by Reviewer2767774 on Apr 03, 2007
I had H-Pylori and had a reaction midway to the RX I was put on. The H-Pylori and all the horrible symptoms raged. I tried everything but many dollars latter this product finally gave me relief. I can't praise it enough. It has helped my husband with his periodic hives, too. I could see how acne would be cured.
Great results
Posted by Reviewer2068809 on Dec 21, 2008
No other probiotic has been so effective for our family (including our two lab pups who sometimes drink some bad pond water!) in helping our intestines. Since this formula targets both small and large intestines it has saved us money on the usual pattern of having to buy 2 probiotic formulas--one for the small intestine and one for the large. It seems to deliver really well--surviving the stomach's hydrochloric acid. Thanks I-Herb for carrying this splendid product at a reasonable price. I was formerly buying it elsewhere for DOUBLE the price 'til I discovered I-Herb!
Good Results

I used to be troubled with acid reflux especially at night. I tried over-the-counter acid pills but these only masked the sympthoms and I had to take far too many day and night for relief. Now one Probiotic at night-time and reflux is under control.

The best probiotic I've found. Even when taking strong antibiotics I didn't have my recurrent tinnitus thanks to taking these probiotics. This is definitely the one for me.
Great probiotic
Posted by Reviewer1220216 on Jan 17, 2010
I started taking only 2 capsules a day just as the suggested dose specified. I feel so much energy, no constipation, no diarrhea, no bloating, and I know my immune system is in tip top shape. I have not gotten sick at all this winter. What a great probiotic.
the best!
Posted by Reviewer1564868 on Jul 28, 2009
i've tried a lot of different probiotics, and this one beats them all. within the first few days, i was more regular and my digestion was a lot happier. plus, they got rid of a mild yeast infection without having to use medication, which makes me happy because that means i'm addressing the problem and not the symptoms.

Tilt StudioRead MoreAt Tilt Studio, black lights shine down on mini golfers playing 18 holes, the glow of neon green, pink, and orange fixtures lighting up their faces. Paintings of grinning roller-coaster riders look down on them as they shoot for hole-in-ones, sending balls flying beneath a bright blue replica of the Eiffel Tower. In the jungle-themed laser-tag arena, players duck behind mock rocks and hide in the shadows beneath luminescent images of twisting pythons and laser-toting apes. This jungle theme extends into the arcade, where players will see a snarling King Kong picking a helicopter out of the air. By filling their space with neon and larger-than-life decor, Tilt Studio transports patrons to another world, much like the elevator that connects Earth and Mars.5000 Katy Mills Cir.Katy, TX US

After a Floyd Mayweather press conference comment about an alleged sexual relationship with the wife of T.I. was apparently taken out of context, Tiny herself responded and supported the boxer's claims that the quote was misreported.
In an Instagram post last weekMayweather wrote the following: "At the press conference, I said ' he thinks I was f*cking his b*tch'. I DID NOT say ' I was f*cking his b*tch'. I've never been with Tiny sexually. I respect her situation and I thinks she's a good person. I would never disrespect a marriage.
Visiting The Rickey Smiley Morning Show in support of her new single and to address the situation, Tiny agreed that "he didn't say that."
"Actually, I went back to it because first of all that is so untrue, she said. "I could just not imagine him saying, 'Oh yeah, I did that.' So, I had to go back [and] put my earbuds on so I could really, really hear. When he says it he said, 'He thought...' but when he says it his head is kind of like turned to the side. If you look at his mouth, his mouth is moving, he's saying, 'He thought.' So, he didn't really say that for real, for real. Everybody took it and the press, that's what they do. But he didn't say that 'cause that never happened. He's never been in a room with me by myself. Anytime that he's been around me it's been people like this. So I couldn't imagine him saying, 'Yeah, I did that.'"
Responding to comments that it "wasn't cool" that the boxer referred to her by the "B word," Tiny said, "Yeah well, you know, I can't say that it was. You right."
The initial press conference quote was in response to a question about Mayweather's apparent rift with T.I. In May, the two confronted one another at a Fatburger restaurant in Las Vegas.

Please help! I would like to use Encounter to configure the IO pad, so I include the IO .lef and .lib file into the .conf file as usual with the command:set rda_input(ui_iolib) "io.lib"set rda_input(ui_leffile) "io.lef"but then, I got this error >> lef file can not work with cdump files without a tech file. anyone seen this kind of error before? thanks!sincerely, chhay
Hi Chay ,I think you might not have given technology lef file before io.lef .So, load the technology lef file first and then io.lef.regards,KVB
Thanks KVB. I did include the "tech.lef" before the "io.lef". but the error is still there. It is weird. that it complains about: >> lef file can not work with cdump files without a tech file. only when i have the command: set rda_input(ui_iolib) "io.lib" in the .conf file. so i think there's nothing wrong with the lef file but the io.lib. I look into the "io.lib" file, everything seems normal and similar to the regular std_cell.lib. please help. thank you very much. chhay
FYI: For lef file, I usually put them into one line in my conf file like: set rda_Input(ui_leffile) "tech.lef stdcell.lef macroList.lef". It works fine. The tech.lef should have layers, vias, via gen rules, site/core defined inside it. Sometimes, if the header of macro/stdcell lef file conflict with the corresponding information in tech.lef, it may fail, then, I usualy remove all the header portion of it. Also, check the consistance between your tech lef and your io.lef file, such as if the layer names used are same. For .lib files, I also integrate them into "set rda_Input(ui_timelib,min/max)...".Tongju

Grant Progress Assessments for Forensic Laboratory Enhancement Awards
Tue, 01/29/2013 - 7:00pm
The Grant Progress Assessment (GPA) program was created to ensure that grantees used federal grant funds to achieve the goals and objectives set forth by Congress. It became an important tool for NIJ program managers for another reason — the assessments helped them educate grantees on grant requirements and special conditions, which in turn helped grantees better administer their grants. In the absence of an active GPA program, grantees can use this page as a reference for lessons learned from the program, and to learn about the program's accomplishments, purpose and history.

Fresh Android Apps for Dec. 14: Personal, Dragon Hunter HD, Monopoly
by Ian Black
Like the shift from DVD to streaming video, everything old gets made new again in a modern format. For classic board games, the Android Market delivers the new digital version and the freshest example is Monopoly. Read more about it below.
Got private stuff you want to remember but not post for the world to see? Try Personal. And, for the big screen version of a popular game, download Dragon Hunter HD.
Personal (Free)
Isn't it time you got more personal with your Android? The main drawback to Facebook, Twitter and other such networks is the sharing. Sometimes you just want to store digital info about yourself and your stuff. That's where Personal comes in.
Store "gems" of information about you, your life and your family safely away in this service's Vault. For example, secure your license or registration details, your home alarm codes, your kids' social security numbers, etc. For others you trust you can grant access to your "gems" and request access to theirs. Build a network of your personal friends through the service.
Dragon Hunter HD (Free)
Attention fans of the tower defense game Dragon Hunter. Here is a new HD version to go along with that new Android tablet you might get over the holidays. Like the original, you must choose arrows with the appropriate powers (poison, dizzy potion, etc.) and the proper magic (fire, ice, wind and light) to kill the attacking dragons before they burn your castle to a crisp.
This HD version delivers higher resolution graphics, screen resizing appropriate for tablets, and support for the in-app purchase of coins through Google Checkout and the capability to get free coins from Tapjoy.
Do not pass GO! Do not collect $200! In fact, go ahead and spend five bucks because game night now arrives every night over your Android. Yup, it's the original and still classic board game digitized for your phone. Invite your friends to play, and then shake your device to roll the dice. Tap properties to buy, sell or add houses or hotels to them.
Now, at least you'll have a good excuse for missing that important meeting.

With the global economy on shaky ground, American consumers have once again begun to retreat. Issues from Europe's continuing debt debacle to the recent poor jobs report has sent consumer confidence downwards to levels not seen since January of this year. Industry group, The Conference Board recently reported its latest index of consumer attitudes had fallen to 64.9 from the previous months' 68.7. Analysts had been expecting a gain to 70. To that end, investors have once again fled from discretionary names and funds like the First Trust Consumer Discretionary AlphaDEX ETF (ARCA:FXD). However, not all of the consumer discretionary names should be thrown away. For those firms who operate in the near-luxury sector, the time could be right to buy.
Investopedia Broker Guides: Enhance your trading with the tools from today's top online brokers.
Upgrading Your Lipstick
With the consumers in the United States once again feeling glum about their prospects, now could be good time to bet on the aspirational or accessible luxury brand purveyors. Analysts point to an economic indicator called the "lipstick effect." The theory, which has been proven almost true with every economic recession, basically states that when economic times are tough, consumers stop spending on big ticket items, and actually increase their spending on smaller indulgences. Consumers can't or don't want to purchase new homes, cars and the like when they're unsure about their financial security. However, the same consumers turn to less expensive extravagances, such as lipstick, when they feel less than confident about the future. People don't want to feel deprived, so they seek solace in smaller "treats."
As consumer confidence numbers have drifted lower, analysts expect the lipstick effect to once again make itself known. Already, some near-luxury brands Steven Madden (Nasdaq:SHOO) have reported better than expected earnings in the difficult consumer environment. All of this means that now may be the time for investors to pounce on stocks that own accessible luxury brands. Less affluent individuals looking for affordable status symbols should increase small luxury spending, while those in the upper-ranks may feel compelled to trade "down" in order to save money.
SEE: The Industry Handbook: The Retailing Industry
Adding Some Accessible Luxury to a Portfolio
With the American consumer once again showing some signs of strain, big ticket items may be off the radar for many households. However, many are still finding a way to purchase aspirational or "near-luxury" goods. For investors, betting on these firms makes sense. A good broad play on the theme is the PowerShares S&P SmallCap Consumer Discretionary (Nasdaq:PSCD). The exchange-traded fund (ETF) tracks 107 different firms including, Iconix Brand's (Nasdaq:ICON) and Perry Ellis International (Nasdaq:PERY). However, there are plenty of individual choices as well.
While handbag maker Coach (NYSE:COH) has been the poster child for aspirational branding, the company has recently encountered some fierce competition in the space. Both Michael Kors Holdings (NYSE:KORS) and Vera Bradley (Nasdaq:VRA) recently went public and have seen great results. Kors Holdings recently reported that its net income more than tripled in its fiscal fourth quarter on the back of strong sales, while Vera Bradley saw revenue from its own stores jump more than 34% in its latest quarter. Both firms represent an interesting take on the near-luxury theme.
Given that the economic indicator is called the "lipstick effect," investors may want do just that and stick with beauty products. Both Revlon (NYSE:REV) and Estee Lauder (NYSE:EL) make compelling buys as consumers trade up to "higher level" personal products. Likewise, fragrance firm Elizabeth Arden Inc. (Nasdaq:RDEN) recently purchased the global licenses for Ed Hardy, True Religion and BCBG Max Azria fragrance brands. All three firms could see higher sales as the lipstick effect takes hold in the upcoming months.
The Bottom Line
With consumer confidence once again in the dumps, analysts predict that the lipstick effect will come back with a vengeance. For investors, that means loading up on aspirational or near-luxury brands. Companies that market these affordable status symbols will be the catalysts for growth in the sector. The previous ideas, along with watch producer Movado (NYSE:MOV), make ideal selections to play the economic effect.
At the time of writing, Aaron Levitt did not own shares in any of the companies mentioned in this article.

USC Trojans' Stafon Johnson has surgery after weights mishap - ESPN

Just what I was thinking - and they said that one of the strength coaches was spotting him!
I've been in some commercial gyms where they prohibit thumbless grips. You'd think all strength coaches wouldn't allow it either...
It really doesn't say whether his thumbs were wrapped around or not. I would probably guess they weren't. But, that doesn't mean they were either. Bars can slip either way if you are doing enough weight, although a lot more likely to slip if your thumbs are under. There may have been a couple other ways that the bar could have fallen also, with his wrists or arm giving out.
But, if I was a guessing man, I would say he probably had his thumbs under the bar and the weight slipped.
Gotta feel bad for a kid working hard to make himself better and having an injury like this.
Here's an example of having your thumbs in the correct position, but having your wrist or arm give out. This guys drops it on his neck as well.

I doubt this was a thumb issue. When I think about it, I would think that that would make the bar fall forward onto the chest and not onto the neck. I could be wrong of course but I would think it would hard for the bar to get to the neck if it fell forward of the hand. I would guess this is more likely a wrist issue or some freak accident.
This is very important:

So regardless of how he was holding the bar... what is the reason some wrap their thumbs under the bar rather than around?

Difference: TargetSpecificOptimization (r11 vs. r10)
Guide to CPU specific Optimizations of Rockbox Targets
ARM Flavors: See the arm quick reference card: http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.qrc0001l/QRC0001_UAL.pdf
With each arm generation, scheduling becomes increasingly important. Fortunately, code scheduled for a later arm processor uses runs at or near optimal on earlier arm cores, with a few exceptions. Therefore one should ideally consider scheduling for the arm11 processor when writing code, even when developing on earlier processors.
Slow multiplier and load/store performance makes careful use of multiplication and load/store multiple instructions essential.
Dual core CPU, work can be splitted between both cores.
Same as PP5002 except:
Dual core CPU, work can be splitted between both cores.
Same as PP5020, except IRAM is 128KB long and zero latency.
Similar to ARM7TDMI?, but with 5 cycle pipeline and separate cache for instructions and data that eliminates the unconditional ldr delay under some circumstances. Attention to pipelining becomes more important. All arm9 cores should not use registers on the cycle immediately after issuing a load against them.
Memory performance is fairly poor when boosted, which hurts battery life if codecs require frequent boosting. IRAM seems no better then DRAM. Codecs run entirely from IRAM.
Relatively slow main memory compared to clock speed.
S5L870x? (ARM940T?)
IRAM is significantly faster then DRAM, but still has higher latency then cache. In general memory performance is very poor on this CPU. Memory bus speed limited to 100MHz so latency increases when boosting.
Similar to ARM922 except the multiplier has been doubled from 8 bits to 16 bits, and the ARM ISA version is upgraded from v4 to v5E.
Apparently very similar to AS3525v2.
Similar to ARM9E? but with even longer pipeline, branch prediction, added L2 cache, 64 bit load/store unit, separate ALU and memory pipelines, and ISA upgraded to v6. Load multiple and load double instructions now fetch two registers per clock if they are even word aligned. Load multiple and store multiple instructions issue in one cycle but will stall if the used registers are read before they are available when loading or written before their contents are stored when storing or if any other memory accesses are started. Large interlock latencies mean considering pipelining is essential. If properly scheduled, performance is substantially improved over ARM9E? due to improved cache, branch prediction and wider load/store units.
High clock speed means memory is fairly slow.
These are RISC variants of the Motorola 68k architecture. Coldfire architecture versions:
There are also some optional units:
Further hints:
Same as MCF5249 except IRAM is 128 KB single cycle (64 KB + 64 KB; only first block is DMA capable).

Weird issue today with my Moto X (locked boot loader, unrooted, totally stock). Earlier today I took the phone off the charger and all was working normally. About an hour after that, I took my phone out to check stuff and the screen is off completely and the phone vibrates every so often but at uneven intervals. I have tried every hardware key combo known to man to reboot and nothing gives. I'm hoping that once the battery eventually dies on its own I will be able to reboot (?) and this is some random software issue, but no idea. Anyone have a solution? I've already emailed Moto to see what they think. I'm in Kabul right now so no VZW stores for a few thousand miles.
Appreciate any input/help!

Contact: Jennifer Killinger (202) 249-6619

Washington, D.C. (September 9, 2013)—For three days during New York Fashion Week, consumers on midtown 8th Avenue can "buy" a limited edition designer T-shirt made with recycled plastic fabric from a new vending machine by Plastics Make it Possible®—using a plastic bottle as currency. Anyone passing by can simply deposit a plastic bottle into the machine and a beautiful new garment made with recycled plastics will be dispensed, underscoring how everyday plastics can live on as "eco-chic" fashion.
The new vending machine is designed to celebrate the growing role of recycled plastics in fashion during New York Fashion Week. Visitors to the Plastics Make it Possible® website also will have a chance to win one of the limited edition T-shirts.
Plastics Make it Possible® has partnered with New York fashion designer Allison Parris for the debut of the vending machine, which will be located south of Columbus Circle on 8th Avenue between 57th and 58th streets in New York City from Sept. 9 through 11. The T-shirts feature an original design by Parris, whose collection is "built around the idea that retaining moral values and being able to wear beautiful, well made clothing are not mutually exclusive actions." Parris is one of a growing number of designers who have embraced recycled plastics as one of the new go-to materials for creating stylish clothing and accessories.
"I'm thrilled to partner with Plastics Make it Possible® and help raise awareness that our everyday plastics can become beautiful, stylish clothing and accessories," Parris said. "When consumers recycle plastics, it gives designers like me the ability to create clothing that's both fashion-conscious and eco-conscious. Recycled plastics make a real contribution to sustainability in fashion—both in my own line and in the industry as a whole."
To help create the T-shirt material, plastic bottles are cleaned, melted, and stretched into a fine thread, which then is woven into soft, comfortable fabrics. Thanks to the versatility of recycled plastics, these fabrics can be manufactured with a variety of weights and textures for a wide range of uses. Both high-end designers and mainstream brands today use recycled plastics to make everything from stylish party dresses to trendy shoes to rugged outdoor jackets.
"By demonstrating that high-quality, stylish clothing can be made with recycled plastics, we hope that Allison Parris's design and this unique vending machine will inspire people to recycle more plastics," said Steve Russell, vice president of plastics for the American Chemistry Council, which sponsors the Plastics Make it Possible® initiative. "The simple act of recycling a plastic bottle or container or wrap not only helps reduce waste but also helps create the raw materials for making new, useful products, such as clothing."
Each day during Fashion Week (Sept. 5–12), five visitors to the Plastics Make it Possible® website will win a limited edition Allison Parris T-shirt made with recycled plastics. To enter for a chance to win, website visitors simply leave a comment about what plastics they recycle.
