YES there were a few positives to find in the 52-20 beating we suffered yesterday at the hands of the Broncos. Here are the main ones that I saw:
1) It was nice to see Michael Vick try to get the TE position more involved. Though I'm sure it had more to do with WR's that can't uncover, going forward if Vick KEEPS using them teams will have to cheat their Safeties to take away those inside routes and it'll prevent them from being able to double so aggressively on the outside.
2) We had ZERO turnovers this week.
3) Early in the game Vick wasn't hesitant to pull it down and run when there wasn't anybody open. I was glad to see that. Athleticism is what HE brings to the position. It's a weapon we should be creatively employing, but for some reason aren't. Denver did a good job of perimeter contain, but you could see in the middle they hadn't bothered to scheme stop Vick from running.
It was just a few things and they were small, but details hold together the foundation of stability.
Denver could go undefeated this season. Thats how much better they are than the Eagles. We had no chance. I thought Vick did as much as he could do. Celek is a bood and stinks. Cooper cant get open to save his life and the rest of the team is average NFL scrub material. Name a coach that could make them a superbowl team?
Andy Reid.
He did that once Tony...all be it only once. And the Bad Karma curse reared it's ugly head.

When we arrived, the lady who was working at that time made a strange currency exchange for the euros, and ended up asking us for more money. We booked a Deluxe Twin Private Shared Bathroom, and she put us in a 4 beds room with no bathroom. The following morning the other girl who was working knocked at my door around 10.30, because she wanted to clean the room for another person, even though they say that check out is at 12!! The only good thing is the central location. I am not returning here

Monar Goes Full Nine in Leading IU to 6-2 Victory
April 10, 2009
IOWA CITY, Iowa - Blake Monar struck out a career-high nine batters in his first career complete game to lead the Indiana baseball team to a 6-2 win over Iowa on Friday night. Kipp Schutz had three hits, including a pivotal two-run single in the sixth, for the Hoosiers (14-17, 4-2 Big Ten), who are currently tied with Minnesota and Purdue for first place in the conference.
Monar improved to 4-2 with his stellar outing, improving as the game went on. The freshman struck out four men in the final 2 1/3 innings and got a crucial double play in the bottom of the ninth. Jerrud Sabourin knocked a pair of hits, driving in two runs and scoring two, while Josh Phegley and Tyler Rogers also tallied multi-hit performances. Nick Brown took a tough-luck loss for the Hawkeyes (11-18, 2-5), going 8 2/3 and allowing just eight hits in the defeat.
The Hawkeyes manufactured a run in the bottom of the first to take a 1-0 lead. Justin Toole got aboard with a leadoff single and moved to second on a sac bunt by Kevin Hoef. Kurtis Muller then delivered a single through the right side to push Toole to third, and then a groundout by Wes Freie scored Toole to make it 1-0.
IU rebounded to tie the game in the top of the second. Schutz started the rally with a double down the right-field line with one out. Rogers came up next and sawed a pitch into center field to deliver Schutz to knot the game at 1-1 for his 15th RBI of the season.
Both Monar and Brown pitched very well over the next few innings, putting zeros on the scoreboard each frame until the sixth, though Monar worked his way out of a couple big jams in the fourth and fifth. The Hawkeyes got the first two runners aboard in the fourth, but IU turned a big double play on a shallow fly to right that saw Chris Hervey double Chett Zeise off second base. In the fifth, Iowa got two on with one down, but Monar retired Freie on a flyout to center and T.J. Cataldo on a groundout to second to get out of trouble.
In the sixth, IU broke the deadlock with a pair of runs on three hits. Sabourin led things off with a double to left and Phegley walked to put two men on with nobody out. Alex Dickerson then dropped down a sac bunt to put a pair of runners in scoring position with one down. After Jake Dunning popped out, Schutz delivered a huge hit with a single up the middle to plate a pair of runs and stretch the Indiana lead to 3-1.
Iowa scraped one run back in the bottom of the seventh. Monar saw three of the first four batters in the frame reach base to load the bases with one out for the cleanup hitter, Freie. The big righty hit a ball hard into the outfield, but Chris Hervey ran it down to keep the damage to a sac fly to make it 3-2. Monar then came up big to finish the frame, striking out Cataldo for the third time in the game to strand a pair of Hawkeyes.
In the top of the ninth, IU plated a little bit of insurance, scoring three runs on two hits and an error. Vince Gonzalez reached on a Zeise error with two down to end Brown's day on the mound, as Mike Schurz came on in relief. Schurz walked Hervey and then Sabourin grooved a 1-0 pitch to right center for a two-run triple that made it 5-2. He then came home on a wild pitch to push IU's lead to 6-2.
Indiana returns to action tomorrow against the Hawkeyes at 1:30 ct/2:30 ET. The contest will be televised live on the Big Ten Network, as will the Sunday finale between the teams. GameTracker and live audio for both games will also be available on IUHoosiers.com.

For Summer 2011, Clean has launched two new fresh fragrances one of which is Cotton T-Shirt. This isn't the first time Clean has gone with a cotton-like scent as they do already have a Warm Cotton Parfum however Cotton T-Shirt seems to have lighter, fresher notes to my nose.
It deserves to be mentioned I really don't heart cotton scents and Clean is about the only brand to convince me otherwise as they really capture the essence of your favorite, soft threadbare cotton t-shirt.

Crysis VS COD 4: A Video Commentary

Re: Crysis VS COD 4: A Video Commentary
Yes, i think youre an idiot when you wright stuff without thinking of why things are what they are... I played through cod4, i wasn't impressed.. its like cod2. Nothing new, intense.. entertaining fast action that is over in 7 hrs or something... Why do my nickname even have anything to do with this? Its crysis related and thats it. Took it in the haste in lack of ideas. Wait until crysis ep2 and 3 is out, along with all the optimizing and graphical improvements.. then please compare it again... Also, new map pack for crysis, 5 new.. So 15 big maps is very generous and give choises and variation. Having linear and small maps combined with you-die-too-fast/easy is not a good combination. Technically crysis is alot more worked out, more details, more love and more time and effort has been put into the game compared to cod4. Models, animations, sounds, music, etc etc you name it. It its just the first part. Its like reading the first book of lord of the rings and compare it with one book. They are about the same length but the journy doesn't end there by far. Cod4 is damned short and MP doesn't do it. More balancing, more maps, bigger maps please. But in the end, its all a matter of taste. They are very different so it makes it harder to compare.
Better AI
Better graphics
Better physis
Better animations
Better sounds/new sound
Less linear
More interactive
More interaction with the world and animals
More realism
More levels
Bigger maps
More choises
Some of them.. Technically crysis is just alot more than cod4...

Hi Jay,
I was able to set an environment variable from within my .bash_profile and
echo it to a file.
2 22 1 9 * . ~/.bash_profile; echo $FOO_TEST > ~/foo_test.txt
My .bash_profile has this line:
export FOO_TEST=1
and my foo_test.txt has a "1" in it.
When redirecting the env command's output to the same file, I am able to
see all my environment variables, including FOO_TEST.
Your problem puzzles me. :-/

Medicare provides health coverage for nearly 40 million Americans; it's the elder population and the disabled who are the program's beneficiaries. Medicare specifically excludes certain categories of health procedures and treatments from its program, such as personal health care, and will pay only for items and services considered "reasonable and necessary." What constitutes "reasonable and necessary" depends on a variety of factors including where the Medicare recipient resides. This study addresses whether Medicare's coverage policies change provider behavior and/or affect how much certain types of services are used. The researchers tracked eight different procedures in diverse locations. Data were collected from two sources: Medicare claims from 1999 to 2002 and local coverage policies posted to the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services Web site in May 2001.
Key Findings:
Policy-makers assume that Medicare imposes significant limitations on physician behavior. This study disproves this hypothesis.

To her beautiful sister Helen, her soap-watching mother, her bewildered father.

8 Utilities to Track Keyword Rankings
One of the more tedious tasks in my monthly routine is preparing keyword ranking reports. While I enjoy analyzing the numbers and discovering how well our clients have (hopefully) improved over the past 30 days, actually collecting those numbers is a chore I don't relish. If I can pay a few dollars to have a service perform this task on my behalf, I'm all for it.
Listed below are eight services that will track your keyword rankings for you. I'll do my best to list out their various pricing structures, to give you a simplified snapshot to help you find the service that most suits your needs.

I like utilizing the Firefox plug in. It definitely helps, and is pretty easy to use.
I normally use Google Analytics to track keyword rankings but I might have to have a look into these other tools and see how they compare to Google. Thanks for sharing these.
Thanks for the information. Currently I am using free firsfox plugin and another free website service to check ranking.
I also like the tool authority labs. It is a little expensive but very good. They are supposed to be coming out with a white label version soon. I'm going to investigate the Raven Software line as it look to do a little more competitive intel.. Great Post.

The FCT police authorities had threatened to stop the demonstrating women activists, who accuse the government of not doing enough to rescue 276 Chibok, Borno State, schoolgirls abducted by Boko Haram insurgents on April 14, from reaching their destination.
The police action contrasted with the conduct of its officers during earlier encounters with the same activist movement in Abuja, Kaduna and Lokoja. While the activists gathered to hold a peaceful demonstration earlier at the Unity Park, Abuja, a large detachment of armed policemen arrived to seal off the venue and stop the event from taking place, dispersing the conveners. According to the police at the time, they had "orders from above" to take the action and prevent further demonstrations at that location over the abducted girls. Similar protests in Kaduna were stopped by police who deployed anti-riot personnel and armoured cars at the Murtala Mohamed Square in a show of determination to stop any rally from taking place. In Lokoja, the police actually informed the conveners in writing, citing the security situation in the country, to decline approval for a proposed rally.
This mixed response reflects the ambivalence on the part of the police on how to handle such peaceful demonstrations over a cause that has gained worldwide recognition. Such confusion is also coloured by the government's own attitude towards those clamouring for it to be much more engaged in the matter of the girls' abduction than it has demonstrated so far.
But the police must recognise the right of people to peaceful assembly, and provide security where the need arises. The activists - as affected and concerned parents themselves- were within the bounds of the laws in mobilizing public interest in the Chibok girls' unfortunate saga.
It is partly due to their effort that corresponding rallies have taken place in practically every capital city in the world. It is not surprising that their action, along with civil society organisations and sections of the media, helped to galvanize and consolidate the ongoing international campaign, including offers of military assistance by several national governments, to assist the country rescue the girls and overcome the Boko Haram challenge. The rallies cannot therefore by any stretch of the imagination be considered questionable and target of police storm troopers. That is why the change of mind by the FCT police is a step in the right direction and should be a model for the entire country.
Among the many lessons from the police stance on public rallies over the #BringBackOurGirls campaign is the continuing resort by security agencies to arrogate to themselves unfounded powers to decide when and where members of the public can express the desire to speak out or assemble on any matter of public interest. Government should not be carried away by the drama of the protest, but rather focus on the causes.
The point has been established many times from legal perspectives that the right of members of the public to assemble freely, as enshrined in Section 40 of Nigeria's Constitution, and in the African Charter of Human Rights, to which Nigeria is a signatory, is inviolable. This fact also enjoys copious complement in judicial rulings by appropriate courts of competence jurisdiction, including the Supreme Court of Nigeria.
The police often flash the provisions of the Public Order Act (Cap 382) Laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to respond to requests or plans by members of the public to hold rallies, although the courts have ruled that law to be inconsistent with provisions of the Constitution and therefore inapplicable. This is the message that the police authorities need to internalise as they come to grips with the aftermath of Chibok girls' abduction, and as another election cycle approaches.

Michael Moore Gets To Give Something Back
As one of Jack's commenters noted the other day, it is absolutely sinful for anyone to make money on "health" related work.
It therefore warms the cockles of my heart to learn that leftist auteur-provocateur Michael Moore is finally able to put his money where his mouth is by giving away the fruit of his labors.
Some things are just too important to be sullied by the profit motive.

Sounds like a marketing boon to me. For a movie, the release of which he reportedly fears will be stopped by the govt, to be set free over the internet. . .now that's a gold mine, a la Radiohead's "Kid A", etc., etc.
Is that true? I'm not a numbers guy so it's all a mystery to me, but it seems counter-intuitive that giving away something you had intended to sell is a good thing.
If people download a long for free, do they also end up buying it later or something?
Oh yeah. Plus, if the gov't is looking to keep it from being shown? It's a little late for that. Puttin' it on the internets is the best way to keep it in circulation. Let's just see how it all unfolds. . .it's hard to say why these "leaks" happen. Sometimes it really is to the disgruntlement of the producer of the product, but my suspicion is M. Moore isn't going to mind much if it wasn't part of the plan already. I don't think you'll see him aggressively pursuing suits against limewire, napster, etc., or nothin.
It's not going to make as much as Spiderman 3 or Titanic, but it likely never was.
"I make these books and movies and TV shows because I want things to change and so the more people that get to see them the better. I'm happy when that happens," he says about the pirating of Farenheit 9/11.
Open Letter to Michael Moore
Subject: I know Cuba is south of here, but where do I go after I get there?
Dear Michael Moore,
Wonder if I could contact somebody in Cuba? What if I decided to be a boat refugee-person and seek asylum in Cuba from America as a victim of abuse and neglect by my country's government. Might there be a legal way? Wouldn't it be doing the rich people in this social-service-starved country a favor by just disappearing and going away?
After watching your documentary, ".Sicko", I am stunned at how thoughts and ideas are zooming around in this universe to be plucked out of the ether like a plastic duck with the lucky number on it in a carnival game. You and I are thinking similar thoughts and are aware of the same warning bells a clanging.
As you may be able to tell by dating my analogy, I am elderly. I am among the very beginning of the baby boomers and was born in 1946. In addition, I had a brain stem stroke in 2002 , have claimed bankruptcy due to high medical bills, though I had insurance at the time (the total $ deductible was out of reach), I now have no insurance whatsoever, and I hear Terri Schiavo's cries for help in my dreams.
Unlike many of my generation, my eyes are wide open and I have intuited the facts outlined in your documentary for a decade or so. I have been suspicious of the sincerity of our democracy since I was a teen.
I am an author with one novel to my credit which is in process of self publishing now. I have finally found my voice and my Truth and I am able to speak it well with help from my muse energy (not traditional or religious). If it is supposed to be, I have many more books within me waiting to be birthed. I do my job gladly, with joy, and gratitude. I am not nor will I ever be a victim of anything. This Truth serves as the reason for the question at the beginning of this letter. I consider the question at this point in my life to be a practical one. I do not believe that my fellow Americans give one whit about me or my needs for the future.
Now don't get me wrong, Michael. I am not a Pollyanna. I know that perfection does not exist on this human dominated earth. I know Cuba is not problem free. I know that after having my stroke, I get motion sick. But I know there is a chance that conditions for me will be better there. I also know I can put up with motion sickness for the 90 mile trip. I am willing and able to make the move now. I just hate to go completely blind and with no direction but south.
My dear partner and husband is an old coot computer geek. He is currently employed as a lab manager at a local computer repair shop. His interests include the GNU and Linux systems. He is also an artist-communicator who would be a grand addition to any society. Yes, he could come too.
The Social Security Administration denied my claim for disability benefits even though my neurologist said I would never be able to return to my previous career in corporate administration. Statistics reveal that SSA denies a majority of first claim s. My doctor told me that a terminally ill, bed ridden brain stroke patient of hers with a prognosis of six months till death had. been ruled ineligible for disability. She encouraged us to keep trying.
On the other hand, I know a well to do person who lives an active life of travel and adventure kayaking who does receive SSA disability benefits. She had the time and money to fight for the income however. She hired a lawyer and for more than two years they climbed a mountain of bureaucratic forms and fought through appeal proceedings.
In my case however, by the time it took my husband and I to gather all the required forms, fill out the 300 page application, wait for the request to get through the system and finally receive the denial of claim (about 2 years), financially we could not hold out. We had spent our savings, we had no trust fund and no capital to pull from...we were broke. At that time we were trying to pay the insurance deductible (approximately $20K) too.
Shaky and still motion challenged, but able to stand on my two feet most of the time, I took a $9/hr job at a local drug store as a cashier. I did it because I had to and did not have the time or energy after starting the job to appeal for assistance. I did give up. I just let the government keep my money...they were apparently more desperate than I was to get it.
I since have tried to answer office phones and do light administrative work for $10/hr, but was not able to "multi-task" well enough to satisfy my boss and could not handle the stress well enough. I started feeling the same symptoms that I had felt just after the stroke and resigned the position. I did not want to die for that company.
Now I have recovered sufficiently to stay at home and author short books and one novel. I have dressed for work each day and treated my at home position as a "real job". I rest when I need to and am able to work in bursts of energy. This schedule has worked for me energy-wise, but money-wise, I have not been paid one cent. I know if I persist, conditions will change. I'll keep on doing what I am doing.
My husband's job does not have any benefits. He needs extensive dental care and cannot afford it. We both are able to pay minimal amounts for our necessary medications (clinical depression for him and high blood pressure for me), thanks to a sweet, small town pharmacist. We get basic health care thanks to an angel of a local healer/doctor. But we need more and cannot afford it. We are eating healthy foods and although not "American dreams" we are at an acceptable weight for us and our doctor. We do not indulge in alcohol or tobacco.
Less than $30,000 annual salary for my husband is not much of a foundation on which to base our simple lives, but it is enough for us to survive on if we stay healthy. Because we have simple lives. Our basic needs are supplied. So long as we maintain our health. We live in gratitude for all we have.
This is my story.
Thank you for your attention,
Sharon Fisher Corbett

text: I will probably pass on this. Didn't really like the originals to finish them. And while I finished DXHR, my opinion of the game was that it is about a 75 as opposed to the 90s it got for metacritic. The story concept while good was not very well put together mainly the lackluster characters that I felt nothing for. The Choices made along the way made no difference whatsoever on the outcome of like anything. Boss battles were crap. Playing stealth was boring as hell. (Yea, so cool watching guards move in static paths for 5 minutes to find that right moment.. NOT) and I'm not sure I would have even enjoyed playing a full gun assault to begin with. The hacking minigame was utter trash and pretty much you missed a lot of tid bits of the story if you didn't actually go and hack several computers. The DLC was better imho but still not enough to make me want to continue in the series.

Not to be a complete jerk, but a much better version of this has been on the market for some time. It's called the TrackIR from NaturalPoint. I own a TrackIR 4 Pro and use it for flight-sims.

My friend, it's the shit's tits. It's awesome. It can't be stated enough just how fucking cool it is.
When playing a flight sim like Aces High 2 (http://www.flyaceshigh.com) which is a massively-multiplayer-on-line-flight-sim, your situational awareness skyrockets when equipped with a TrackIR. You're suddenly about to look AROUND your cockpit, out each window, etc. by turning your head. It feels completely natural and the learning curve is almost non-existent.

Lamborghini Miura
Don't thank Ferrucio for the Miura. He was vehemently against the notion of a thoroughbred, fire-spitting road racer, instead preferring the quiet and powerful luxury of grand touring. No, his two top engineers - Dallara and Stanzani - built a prototype mid-engined racer in the spirit of the Ford GT40 in their spare time, and presented it to the headstrong boss. They expected a torrent of swearing delivered in rural Italian dialect, and perhaps a P45. What they got was a big fat thumbs up.

NUsports.com Special Contributor Skip Myslenski was on hand Tuesday as new Northwestern head men's basketball coach Chris Collins was introduced to the media.
The father, as a player, had performed always with a fire burning in his belly, and it remained there still even after he retired and was doing little more than facing off against his young son in their family's driveway. He would roughly jostle the boy there in their games of one-on-one, he would mercilessly drill the boy there in their games of H-O-R-S-E, and never, ever, would he concede and let the boy win.
"But you're supposed to let me win," the boy would whine after many of those games.
"Your first instinct as a parent is to protect your son," the father would once say, thinking back on those moments. "But life's not that way. You get bumped. You fall down. And the measure of a man is how you handle hurdles in life."
The boy, even then, was undaunted by life's many hurdles and so he stayed after his dad, stayed after him ardently and finally beat him when he was a blossoming 14 years-old. "I was trying to hold him. But my (once injured) leg (which ended his career) wouldn't go," the father, Doug Collins, would remember of that moment.
"It was fierce," remembered the boy, new 'Cat basketball coach Chris Collins. "He wasn't about to give over the reins. There were some elbows thrown. It was pretty ugly. It was a great moment. He was pretty mad. . . But I'm glad (he raised me that way). I think that just made me real competitive as a young kid, and ever since then I've loved challenges. Some people have said, 'He can't do this.' 'He's too small.' 'He's too slow.' 'He can't really jump.' I look at all those things as challenges, but I've always been pretty confident in my own abilities. Not to the point of being cocky. But I've always believed in my ability to do things. I just try to go out and not prove people wrong. But to show people I can do it."
Those memories were offered up over a decade ago, back when Chris Collins was a callow freshman guard at Duke. Yet they aptly explicate the foundation of the 38-year old man who was officially introduced as Bill Carmody's successor on Tuesday at a press conference at Welsh-Ryan Arena. "The guys will find out, it's going to be tough work," he said there at one point, testifying to that truth. "We're going to get after it on the court. Anyone who knows my personality knows that's who I've always been as a player and as a coach. We're going to have to step up and compete. We're not going to back down."
"I understand there's a lot of work to be done," he more tellingly said at another point. "I'm not afraid of that. I'm a competitor. When I went to Glenbrook North (where he was named Illinois Mr. Basketball as a senior), they'd never done anything in basketball. People wanted me to go to other high schools because they didn't think I could win there. We started a culture there and it became one of the best basketball programs on the North Shore and still is to this day. Certainly when I went to Duke it was already established. But I had to go through tough times there as well. My junior year, Coach K (Mike Krzyzewski) got sick (and didn't coach the second half of the season) and we went from the national championship game to last place in one year. Then my senior year, we had a group of guys, we had to dig down and get the program going again.
"So I'm not afraid of the work that needs to be done. I'm ultra-competitive. I'm passionate about what I do. To me, in life, if you love doing something, you want people to know about it. I know when I played, I was real energetic on the court, and some people liked it and some people didn't. But I always wanted the world to know I loved what I was doing. It's no different in coaching. I love coaching. . .(and) we're going to build a winner. I'm confident. I'm excited. But I also know it's going to take work. I'm not afraid of the work I'm going to have to do to get this thing going. I'm in it for the long haul."
His experience stretches beyond Duke, where he was an assistant for the last 13 years. That is one thing to remember about Chris Collins, who also played in Finland, assisted Nancy Lieberman in the WNBA and served on Krzyzewski's staff while the latter guided the U.S. men to gold at the 2008 Beijing Olympics and the 2010 World Championships and the 2012 London Olympics. That explains why, on Tuesday, his father would say, "He's ready. He's ready to roll. He's been ready for awhile. If you guys had the chance to see him with the U.S. Olympic team and see him coaching the pros, and the opportunities that Coach K has given him-- the thing that Coach K has done along the way, not only has he developed these guys as men, but as an assistant coach, you coach. You don't just recruit. You're on the floor coaching. That sometimes gets lost in the, 'Well, he's never been a head coach.' Well, nor was I when I came to Chicago at 36 (to take over as coach of the Bulls). Somebody's got to give you your first opportunity. Dr. (Jim) Phillips (the 'Cat AD) and Mr. (Morty) Shapiro (the school president) have given him that opportunity, and I know he's going to run with it."
He is also a realist. That is one more thing to remember about Chris Collins, who knows full well that many have opined that the 'Cat facilities have hampered their quest for basketball success. "My goal for Welsh-Ryan is let's make it a heck of a home-court advantage," he would say Tuesday. "Let's get these seats packed. Let's get everybody wearing purple. Let's see what it's like when you have 8,000-plus people in here going crazy for Northwestern basketball. . . If you walk into Cameron Indoor Stadium (Duke's playpen), no one goes in there and talks about how state-of-the-art it is. You talk about the atmosphere because of the people that are in it, and the hunger of the crowd, and the excitement. That's what we have to build. We have to put a product on the floor the people are going to be excited about."
He is, in addition, a pragmatist. This is one more thing to remember about Chris Collins, who was taught by the master basketball minds of both his father and Mike Krzyzewski. "One thing I believe about coaching is you should tailor what you do based on your personnel," he would say Tuesday, echoing the approach of those mentors. "I will create a system that I feel is going to benefit the pieces we have. I don't believe in having a strict system you plug guys into year-after-year. That's not how I coach. I want to showcase my star players, my best players. I want to put them in a position to be successful, and then complement them with the right pieces."
He is, finally, just where he wants to be. That is the final thing to remember about Chris Collins, whose emotions were palpable enough on Tuesday that his voice sometimes cracked as he answered questions. "It's a dream come true," he said at one of those moments. "To be in basketball my whole life and to now be sitting up here as the head coach of Northwestern of the Big Ten, the highest level of college basketball, it's pretty overwhelming-- in a good way. I just think how hard I've worked to get here. It's a special day, for sure. . .
"You may all talk about going to the NCAA Tournament and those things and, sure, that's going to be a great milestone when we get there. But my goal is to build a top-notch basketball program. I want to be here for a long, long time. It's exciting for me to put my imprint on this university, on this school. It's an exciting day. It's a good day. It's a good day. I'm really excited to be here and I can't wait to get to work."
The father, on Tuesday, is reminded of those games they played so long ago on the family's driveway, and he smiles. "He's a competitor. He's been around a competitive dad. He's always been in a competitive environment," Doug Collins then says. "I never let him beat me in horse or any of those games. To me, that's false praise and to me false praise sometimes is much more deadly than the truth. Because kids start thinking this is the way it is when the truth is, 'You know what, you've got a long way to go.' I mean, if Chris were afraid of challenges, he never would have gone to Duke. Everyone said he would never play at Duke. But he went down there, scored a thousand-something points, started on a Final Four team, became the bridge with the other guys when Coach K got sick to get them back to the NCAA Tournament, and then sat next to Coach K for 13 years. So he's been around competitiveness, and that's what this is about."
The son also smiles when reminded of those games. "It made me the competitor I am," Chris Collins then says. "He never let me win at anything. That was a lesson. So you know when you win, you've earned it. So even though I didn't know it, and I was crying a lot and was upset, it feels that much better when you win because you know nothing was given to you."
And did those games help prepare him for his new challenge here?
"Absolutely," he finally says. "I feel, I've been so fortunate my whole life to be around basketball and great coaches and players, everything I've learned has prepared me for this day. Now it's on me to take it and run with it."

Aadro now comes prepared with their own line of handbags for women. Classy, elegant, luxurious and totally affordable, you can definitely make one your own.
The Ostrich leather has a fabulous texture that has been famously used by Paco Rabbane and Hermes on many occasions. Of course, keeping in mind Animal rights and PETA, the use of leather is being cut down and Ostrich leather is not easy to get.
It is because of its texture that it gives the amazing look. Aadro's line of bags has retained the exact look of the Ostrich leather is brilliant colours and we're blown away by it. It is a perfect handbag for the ladies.
In the newest season of Gossip Girl, It girl Serena Van Der Woodsen [acted out by Blake Lively] is seen around town carrying her gray ostrich leather bag. As always, her style mantra is a casual, free-sprited flow of clothes. Unfortunately, it isn't summer anymore so we've got to layer up. But that doesn't mean that we write off being stylish.
In fact, when winter cometh, fashionistas are always on a high rise! Its strange how seasons really do affect fashion!
For today, why don't you try out these new range of hand-bags by Aadro that can be found on FashionandYou? And oh yes. Before I forget. We always have amazing deals on everything in our shop, including the Aadro line. So become a member and grab the hottest deals [that you never thought was possible!!] possible with us today!

Farmers Market Report: April 20-21
Perfect conditions this weekend
By Kate Thornberry,
11:55AM, Fri. Apr. 19, 2013
As you can see by my photo of the Rainbow Swiss chard, greens are still looking fantastic, and this latest blast of rain and cool temperatures is going to give all the greens. including lettuce, a few extra weeks. The lettuce in my garden has bolted already, but the Farmers Market lettuces are still looking wonderful. Once the hot weather hits greens will get bitter and buggy, so be sure to enjoy them now.
Dewberry Hills Chicken will be back this weekend, but at the Sunset Valley Market only. They are bringing a very limited number of birds and an even more limited number of breast packs, so get there early. They hope to be at both markets again soon.
Confituras is declaring this weekend "Strawberrypalooza!" Stephanie McClenny will be selling Strawberry Vanilla Bean Jam, Strawberry Meyer Lemon Marmalade, Strawberry Balsamic Black Pepper Preserves, Pickled Strawberries, and more. Stephanie is at both SFC Farmers' Markets: Sunset Valley and Downtown, and at Mueller on Sunday.IO Ranch Lamb has added Lamb Sausage to their line. Jeff tells me that he sold out of his first run last Saturday in about half an hour. It is a wonderfully economical way to enjoy local Dorper Lamb meat; it grills up quickly and it is wonderfully garlicky, crisp and juicy.
Fruitful Hill Farm (Barton Creek and Sunset Valley) will have squash blossoms again this week, as well as tiny little squashes with the blossoms still attached! They will also be bringing eggs, strawberries, beets, garlic, broccoli, carrots, collards, fennel, Romaine, red and Bibb lettuce, bulb onions, chard, shallots, turnips, kohlrabi, radishes, arugula and kale.
Celtic Seafare will be at Barton Creek this Saturday with cold-smoked salmon from British Columbia. They will have regular cold-smoked and cold-smoked cured with Tito's Vodka and beetroot. They will also have Smoked Salmon Mousse; Hot smoked Salmon with Lemon Pepper, Poblano and Wildflower Honey; Crusted Hot Smoked Salmon with Jack Daniels/Roasted Pecan Pesto; Smoked Salmon Egg Soufflé with Feta Cheese and Dill; and their outstanding sandwiches made on the spot at the market.Dad's Premium Granola ("Get Your Own!") hasn't had a change in their product line in a while (why mess with perfection?). Customer demand, however, has brought about a new variety: Gluten-Free Seeds Only. Dad's regular flavors (Almond, Agave Almond, Pecan, Agave Pecan, and Austin Manna) all contain cashews and coconut in addition to almonds and pecans, making all the flavors off-limits for folks with a nut allergy. The new flavor, Seeds Only, has no nuts at all, just crunchy seeds instead, including sunflower and pumpkin.
Braune Farm and Fruitful Hill Farm will have snow peas this Saturday, and Fruitful Hill will also have tender young pea shoots.
The HOPE Market will have Peeler Farms (chicken and duck) this Sunday, as well as RRR Farms (pork, eggs, some goose eggs and spring onions) and Windy Hill Farms (goat and sheep). The Austin Honey Company will be selling a limited amount of their special dark honey at the Hope Market this Sunday as well.
Dai Due News: This weekend Jesse will be cooking Pon Haus with a fried egg and molasses; Chicken Burger with chicken bacon, kimchi, liver mousse and mayonnaise on a brioche bun; Hairston Creek Asparagus with a fried egg, Hollandaise and brioche toast; Kasekrainer Sausage with sauerkraut, onion and F4M on an onion seed roll; and Bacon, Egg and Chorizo Taco with cortido and salsa ojo rojo.
The Dai Due Butcher Shop will be selling Fresh Kielbasa ($12), Kasekraner Sausage ($12), Sauerkraut ($9), and Cordito (Spicy Salvadoran Pickles, $8), among other items.
Monday is Earth Day! The Markets will be honoring Earth Day over the weekend with special events and presentations. At the Barton Creek Market, noted authority Dick Peterson will be giving a talk on rainwater harvesting, and Microbial Earth will be giving tips on the soil benefits of composting. Chef Leena Dillingham will be giving a demonstration of cooking with Spring greens and lettuces, and the Tiny Tails Petting Zoo will be on hand for the tots.
The HOPE Market will be presenting an interactive discussion featuring Jimmy, Ada, Drew, and Lila Johnson, the children of Brenton Johnson of Johnson's Backyard Garden. The topic will be, "What is it like to Grow Up on a Farm?"
See you at the markets!

Red Tide Returns in 2006
Beginning in August 2006 and continuing to the present, a persistent bloom of the red-tide alga, Karenia brevis, has been present in Sarasota Bay and surrounding waters. Cell concentrations have reached levels of several million cells per liter of seawater, indicating a severe red tide event. As point of reference, cell concentrations of 1,000 cells per liter or less are considered background levels, and 100,000 cells per liter or more typically cause respiratory irritation in humans and fish kills. The previous red tide event that occurred in Sarasota Bay waters persisted from February 2005 to January 2006 and cell concentrations reached a maximum of 300 million cells per liter. During the 2006 red tide bloom there have been significant increases in sea turtles stranding. Since 1 August 2006, Mote has responded to 84 sick or dead sea turtles in the Sarasota Bay region. On average, Mote responds to 50-60 sea turtle strandings per year. This increase in sea turtle strandings was also seen last summer during the prolonged red tide event in which over 92 sea turtles stranded between August and November 2005. Lastly, dolphin strandings do not appear to have increased during the current red tide event, with only 3 dolphins stranding since August 2006. This is in contrast to last year's event when over 20 dolphins stranded between August and November 2005, and Sarasota Bay was included in the region identified as part of a Florida West Coast Unusual Mortality Event. Blood samples tested from the live sea turtles stranding during this year's event have been positive for the red tide toxin. The scope of this year's red tide event is currently smaller in magnitude and severity than last year's year-long red tide bloom, but the cumulative effects of these continued red tide events on the Sarasota Bay ecosystem are unknown and currently under investigation.

"Main propulsion develops about 230,000lbs (1,000kN) at lift off using 90% concentration hydrogen peroxide and kerosene as propellants," says the report.It also explains that the crew capsule has a solid rocket launch abort system to separate it from the propulsion module.The flight profile will see the vehicle fire its engine for 2min reaching 125,000ft (38,000m) altitude. Then its momentum would see it coast to at least 100km (54nm) before returning to Earth.The report states that Bezos claims that the crew capsule and propulsion module may separate at this point or may return as a single vehicle.Without the separation the whole system lands under power as the main engines reignite for about 15s just before landing. If separation occurs the crew capsule would land using parachutes while the propulsion system descends under power. The FAA report says the launch site will have a vehicle processing facility, a launch complex, a vehicle landing and recovery area and a spaceflight participant training facility.Blue Origin proposes to conduct a test flight programme over the next five years at its Corn Ranch launch site, detailed in the table below.

The Celtics allowed the Bobcats to come to their home and steal a win so they decided to return the favor tonight. This time around they weren't having none of what had happened last time around and they were able to come up with the road win.
I say Stevens saw plenty of tape of Charlotte, as Boston was playing them remarkably well defensively and Stevens' rotations never seemed to fail.
Anyways the game started as any Celtics-Bobcats game could be expected to start. It was horrible, everyone wanted to go to bed, and Charlotte grabbed the early lead. The Celtics couldn't seem to find themselves on offense and they shot just 28.6% from the field in the first quarter.
The bench was the one providing the spark to the team. The combination of Pressey and Wallace to go along with Green pushed the Celtics to more effective offense both in transition and in the half court. Jordan Crawford also sort of caught fire in the second and the Celtics grabbed the lead that they would practically never let go for the rest of the game.
Al Jefferson was nowhere to be found today as he encountered very good defense from Humphries and Sullinger individually. This time around it was Henderson and Walker the guys killing the Celtics though one would think that was the plan as everything they had was from the midrange. Boston did an excellent job in keeping Charlotte out of the paint tonight.
Phil Pressey's contributions have to be highlighted here. His defensive pressure changed the game and he was the only guy being able to produce something out of the half court. Combining these two aspects was the way in which the Celtics were able to grab the lead. Phil dished out 8 assists in 20 minutes.
Some more game notes:
- Kelly Olynyk was out with an ankle sprain
- Humphries got decent minutes (16) and was once again efficient. He scored 4 points, grabbed 5 rebounds, and was a +17 mostly because of his great defense on Al Jefferson.
- Jared Sullinger was 0-3 from three point range and Celtics Nation still doesn't know what to think of him shooting treys. I'm mostly on board. Not completely, mostly.
- Even though Sully struggled on the offensive end, his defense is really taking a step forward this season.
- Jordan Crawford was somehow a -4 but he scored 21 and dished out 5 assists. His shots also helped keep Charlotte away.
- Kemba Walker torched the Celtics going for 28 points, but again, might have been the game plan. Also, Avery was in foul trouble for most of the game so this could have contributed to Kemba's great game.
- Due to this foul trouble Avery managed to play only 8 minutes tonight.
The Celtics will be back at it on Wednesday at 7:30 to face Memphis at the TD Garden.

Envirotainer reports that the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has awarded it with the airworthiness certificate for Envirotainer's newest development, the RAP e2 container. The Envirotainer RAP e2 container is an active temperature-controlled container featuring electrical heating and compressor cooling to maintain temperature control in tough environments.
Envirotainer first introduced electrical heating and compressor cooling container, the RKN e1, to the market in 2005.

Expanded polystyrene (EPS) is often a preferred material for thermal containers. A cost-effective insulating material, EPS also features high performance in shock absorption and compression resistance.
From an environmental standpoint, it is often saddled with a bad rap as an inert material that doesn't degrade in landfills, according to speakers at a panel presentation on green transportation packaging at Interphex.
ThermoSafe Brands has added GreenBox to its family of temperature-controlled transportation packaging. Tegrant Corp. President & CEO Ronald Leach and ThermoSafe Brands' President Colleen Bohn announced the acquisition of GreenBox from Entropy Solutions Inc. in a press release. In addition to the acquisition, the companies have forged an exclusive worldwide license agreement for PureTemp phase-change materials in the life sciences market and an on-going technology development agreement between ThermoSafe Brands and Entropy Solutions Inc.
CSafe LLC (Dayton, OH) and Cathay Pacific have signed a master lease agreement enabling the airlines to use CSafe's active temperature-controlled containers. CSafe manufactures the AcuTemp RKN active temperature-controlled cargo container, which has been approved by the FAA and EASA for shipping products with temperature requirements between +4 degrees C to +25 degrees C.
Cryopak, a TCP Reliable company, will participate in this year's MD&M East Show at the Innovation Briefs Theater. Anthony Alleva, Technical Services Manager for Cryopak, will present "Leveraging New Refrigerant Technologies: Phase Change Materials in Temperature Controlled Package Design." Join Alleva on Wednesday June 9th at booth #2673 from 11:40 to 12:10.
Tegrant Corporation, ThermoSafe Brands (Arlington Heights, IL) has introduced a new insulated pallet shipper with advanced characteristics. The ThermoSafe® EF4100 Pallet Shipper has been specifically designed for life science customers, by life science customers, to use in the transport of high-value, temperature-sensitive, pharmaceutical, biological, and vaccine products, the company says.
Transporting pharmaceuticals and their packaging components is undoubtedly a hot topic for the National Wooden Pallet & Container Association's (NWPCA). On its Web site (www.palletcentral.com), NWPCA reports that it has been fielding inquiries from pallet users concerned about the recent recall by McNeil Consumer Healthcare. The recall involved complaints of a moldy or mildewy smell; McNeil reportedly believes the smell was caused by the chemical 2,4,6 Tribromoanisole (TBA), a known degradant of 2,4,6 Tribromophenol (TBP) used in pallets that housed packaging supplies.
The current economic challenges have caused dramatic budget impacts, and nearly every industry and organization has felt the pressure of the current crisis. As operating costs continue to rise, budgets continue to shrink. Whether it is in highly critical research and development or in ongoing marketing and delivery, the impact has been felt and the future looks to be quite austere.
Minnesota Thermal Science (MTS) (Minneapolis) has announced a strategic partnership with SCA Cool Logistics (Cool Logistics). The partnership will allow MTS and Cool Logistics to expand their operations globally, as well as to offer a complete range of products to all clients.
