The Institute of Medicine wants schools to increase the time students engage in physical activity.
But we found out, Charlotte County Public Schools are erasing PE teachers from elementary schools.
The laughs and screams of students running around Sallie Jones Elementary School fill up the block.
Charlotte County students exercise every day. Once every two weeks, a physical education teacher visits each elementary class.
"There's a difference between PE and recess. There's a big difference, just ask a PE teacher," explains Bryan Bouton, the president of the local teacher's union.
Next year, the district is eliminating those five elementary PE positions and asking regular teachers to pick up the slack by continuing to offer 30 minutes of structured physical activity every day.
"I just feel as though they continue to put more and more on our teachers' plates and it takes away from the health of our kids," says Phoebe Menzer, who has three children at East Elementary.
Bouton says there's no doubt grade school teachers will rise to the occasion.
"My second immediate thought is how is this going to affect our students? What affect is this going to have on our elementary students?" he asks.
The Institute of Medicine says it could have a big impact.
Thursday, it released a study saying active students have better test scores, thinking skills and attention spans. It recommends schools incorporate activity into every core class like math and English.
"We want the best for these kids in every way and we're trying to provide, with what we're given, the best education that we can," explains Mike Riley, the community liaison for Charlotte County Public Schools.
It comes down to dollars and cents. The school district is receiving less state funding than it anticipated.
According to Riley, last year, the state gave the district four million dollars in non-recurring money. This year, it's giving Charlotte County Public Schools five million, but $4.2 million is dedicated to salary increases for teachers, leaving $800,000 to cover the rest.
There will be cuts at every school and every department.
Determining where to make those cuts is the hardest thing for district leaders. "It's horrible. It's just flat out horrible, it really is," Riley admits.
At elementary schools, leaders considered cutting guidance counselors, STEM labs and media specialists. The Budget Advisory Committee settled on PE teachers in a move which will save $250,000.
None of the teachers will be fired, just reassigned to other positions. Leaders say the change will only last one year.
Over the past five years, the district has eliminated 380 positions and 38 million dollars, according to Riley.
He says the district received word this week that it's been selected as a high performing district for the eighth straight year.

This document aims to describe how to use command-line client tools to interact with the Core User Directory (CUD) REST interface, for the extraction of data according to specific queries. These tools are intended to help with the automation of a batch-processing strategy.
Requests to the CUD REST interface are made using the HTTP GET method, with parameters included in the query string. Results are streamed in the HTTP response in a choice of formats: XML; JSON; CSV; Delimited Text with named delimiter and text qualifier.
A self service interface is also available to enable users to pre-build queries which can then be referenced by name in the query string. Access to the REST end points are over SSL/TLS, with the Kerberos GSS-Negotiate mechanism used for authentication.
Queries to the CUD REST interface use the Solr/Lucene query syntax. More information about Solr query syntax may be found at http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrQuerySyntax.
As mentioned earlier, parameters are included in the query string. These should be URL-encoded (there are plenty of free URL-encoding utilities available both on and off the web).
Allowed parameters are as follows:
This is the parameter describing the Solr query, and is the only mandatory parameter.
Legal values are empty (no data will be returned), or a legal Solr query.
2.1.1. Example Request Parameters
An example of the Solr query "cud\:cas\:sso_username:unit1234", when encoded:
The Solr query "cud\:cas\:sso_username:unit1234 AND cud\:cas\:current_affiliation:oucs", when
The fields parameter allows the requestor to reduce the set of values returned for each record to only those attribute fields that are specified.
Legal values are a comma-separated list of attribute names.
The format parameter in CUD queries is optional, and specifies the format in which the requested data will be returned. It may be omitted, in which case the default 'csv' format will be used.
Legal values are 'csv' (the default), 'xml', 'json', or 'text'. If 'text' is chosen you can optionally set the 'delimiter' and 'qualifier' parameters to further customise the output (See below).
The delimiter parameter in CUD is optional, and only relevant when the 'text' format is used. For other formats this parameter will be ignored. The first character of the value set for this parameter will be used as the field delimiter. If the text format is set, and this parameter is omitted, a comma will be used as the delimiter.
The qualifier parameter in CUD is optional, and only relevant when the 'text' format is used. For other formats this parameter will be ignored. The first character of the value set for this parameter will be used. The purpose of this parameter is generally to escape the field. If the text format is set, and this parameter is omitted, no additional qualifier will be used.
The history parameter in CUD queries is optional, and indicates whether you wish the response to contain historical values for attributes and affiliations. You should only request this if it is required, and the default is not to include history. Include history if you wish are requesting data in XML or JSON format and wish it to be richly structured (see the CUD UI User Guide for further details).
Legal values are 'y', 'n' or omitted entirely.
To automate access to the CUD REST interface a tool is required that will allow authentication using the GSS Negotiate protocol with a Kerberos service principal keytab. The following tools offer this functionality and have been successfully tested to work with the CUD REST interface.
However, these tools are not the only way to access the CUD REST interface, there is no reason why programmatic solutions should not be developed if you have a requirement to.
The curl tool may be used as long as it has been compiled with GSS-Negotiate and SSL support. Compiling with GSS-Negotiate support is dependent upon the availability of particular Kerberos libraries. The MacOS and linux operating systems are examples for which curl has been packaged with built-in GSS-Negotiate support, while curl built for the Windows OS may not have been.
If you see "GSS-Negotiate" and "SSL" in the third line of the output ("Features") you can use curl for this.
If the "GSS-Negotiate" (Negotiate authentication) feature is missing you can alternatively use the java-based command-line tool.
3.2. NegotiateRestClient.jar (supplied on request)
To use this tool you must have installed the prerequisite Java SE (Standard Edition) Runtim Environment (JRE). This is available as a free download from http://java.oracle.com . Alternatively an equivalent OpenJDK edition can be installed if it is available for your OS platform. The minimum required Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version is Java 7.
When the JRE is installed the tool can be invoked as follows:
If a JRE is successfully installed, the output should include an error message, and a usage message
resembling the following:
Before using the CUD REST interface you should have a Kerberos service principal in the OX.AC.UK realm, which should be authorised appropriately for access to CUD data sets.
4.1. Requesting a Service Principal
Email email@example.com to request a service principal for access to CUD, specifying the /itss principal that should have administrative rights over that principal, and that the principal is intended to be used to access CUD data.
Once you have the service principal you can generate a keytab using the kadmin utility on a workstation that has been secured for this purpose (since linux.ox.ac.uk is a shared service it is not recommended for this). Since the keytab contains password-equivalent keys for system-to-system authentication it should be kept in a secure location.
The following examples are based on a fictitious server called example.unit.ox.ac.uk, which is using a service principal, email@example.com for which a keytab has been created in the current directory with the name of example.keytab
The following is a simple example of using curl on a linux platform, authenticating with Kerberos to the CUD REST interface. Correct Kerberos configuration is assumed.
5.2.2. NegotiateRestClient.jar
In contrast to curl, the java client uses a configuration file in which the principal and the keytab location are specified. Given the example principal and keytab described above we will place our authentication configuration file in the current directory, and call it login.conf. Its contents will look like the following:
NOTE that the values assigned to the attributes "keyTab" and "principal" above will need to be changed for your own set-up, i.e. you should substitute the correct values for the location and name of your own keytab file, and the name of your cud service principal.
With regard to the other configuration attributes, it is important that "useKeyTab" should be set to "true", to ensure that Java uses the keytab file to authenticate to the remote CUD REST interface.
To test the set-up it will help to have a basic kerberos configuration file in place so that the client has all its configuration information available locally. For our example this will be called
By default the program will look in the current directory for the krb5.conf file. If the file is not found there Java will try to locate this file in these locations on a Windows platform (trying each in turn):
Alternatively you can specify the location of the Kerberos configuration file on the java command line, by setting the java.security.krb5.conf parameter, as in
% java -Djava.security.krb5.conf=/path/to/krb5.conf ...(etc)...
For use with the Oxford realm the contents of the krb5.conf kerberos configuration file should look
like the following:
The krb5.conf above can be re-used as-is.
So to summarise, for this example we should have three files available: the keytab file (example.keytab), the authentication configuration file (login.conf), and the kerberos configuration file (krb5.conf). With that in mind the following are examples of using NegotiateRestClient.jar, and authenticating transparently with Kerberos to the CUD REST interface.
The query is specified using the -d/--data flag, and the arguments following will be appended to the URL in a GET request. In this case, "q=" indicates that the query string is empty.
The following query retrieves all records that have a currently-active affiliation to OUCS, in XML format:
The next query retrieves a particular record for a person, with change history, in json format:

profile structure doesn't update when changed. First, the rim to sump value will not change with sump defined by depth and trying to change the sump depth (going deeper and no rules exist). Second, change to define sump by elevation and the sump elevation changes and the grip changes to the correct elevation, but the part outline doesn't change. I've read where the part catalogue location should be updated. I did.
thanks a lot autodesk
This is a peer to peer forum where we, as users, try to help other users, in our spare time. Yes, sometimes we get the Autodesk folks in here, but we are mostly just users like yourself. For your non-updating structure, I've had cases like that, where a quick Swap part fixed it...swap it for another part type, then swap it back to the correct one.
It was a swipe at Autodesk in general. At times I do not like this program very much. I had tried swapping parts, alas, to no success. I've looked at every setting for structures, profile views, viewports, pipes, trees, shoes...nothing.

Ministry Spotlight: Ink 180
We're taking this year to focus on local ministries each month. We hope that you will learn about these ministries and that God will create a heart in you to learn more, give or pray. Our first focus is INK 180 and here is their story.
Chris Baker was leading a youth group encouraging kids to make a difference in the community when they came up with the idea to paint artistic murals over the walls of buildings defaced by gang graffiti. That idea set in motion the answer to the prayer Chris had been praying since he had discovered faith in Jesus as an adult, "God, show me what I can do to serve and bless people."
Chris realized gang markings went beyond graffiti on buildings; gangs relied on body-altering tattoos to signify everything from allegiance to the gang hierarchy to keeping tallies of violent criminal activity. He realized his greatest artistic love, tattoos, was to become his ministry calling, covering up the markings of dark and destructive lifestyles with beautiful works of art. INK 180 was born.
It was during a meeting with Homeland Security's gang division that Chris was invited to discuss his ministry with another unit, the human trafficking operations. Suddenly, Chris was invited into a horrific underground world few see clearly in the United States.
Hundreds of young women, many of whom are domestic victims & runaways, held captive by organized crime, gangs, drug dealers, lies, abuse and threats are forced into human trafficking and are typically tattooed by their captors so they can be tracked back and returned to their 'owners.' He covers up their vile markings and the girls love to choose the art, the colors, the images, but most of all, they love to have the vile markings made invisible.
Chris has covered hundreds of destructive markings since he began in October of 2011. Chris provides his time, supplies, artwork, entirely free of charge. INK 180 is entirely funded by donations, no charge is ever asked of the people receiving Chris' ministry. He cannot operate any other way; beautiful second chances are totally free, already paid in full by the One who paid it all.
What does this have to do with you?
INK 180 needs your help. INK 180 is entirely funded by donations from people like you. INK 180 charges nothing to the people it helps, it never will. INK 180 does not exist for profit or gain; it only exists to help people live out their second chance. Whether you can give a little, or a lot, INK 180 will use your donation to change a life in the most literal way that it can, through covering up gang and human trafficking tattoos with something beautiful.

BIRDLAND — After the much publicized workout of Missouri linebacker Sean Weatherspoon on Wednesday, the Falcons flew to Dallas and went over to Fort Worth to work out Texas Christian standouts Daryl Washington and Jerry Hughes, according to an associate of the Willis & Woy Sports Management Group.
Hughes, played defensive end in college, but was worked out as a linebacker.
General manager Thomas Dimitroff, head coach Mike Smith and linebacker coach Glenn Pires were on the trip, according to the associate.
The knock on Washington is that he's a little light at 230, but it's believed that with a proper diet he can pack on some pounds quickly. He's listed as 6-foot-1, 3/4. He played inside linebacker in the Horned Frogs' 4-2-5 alignment.
The Falcons were looking at him as a weakside linebacker candidate.
Hughes is the more publicized of the two Horned Frogs. He had 28.5 career sacks and started 27 of 49 games over his career.
March 19th, 2010
12:32 pm
Hughes's numbers look good but it appears that durability may be an issue. whatever strengthens the team, i'm all for it.
March 19th, 2010
12:42 pm
I just don't see the birds taking a LB with that 19th pick, we all know that Lofton is an every down LB, and on obvious passing situations at least 1 linebacker comes off the field. None of these players are better than the LBs on the current roster. I'm still thinking Pouncey, the Center from UofF, with the 19th Pick.
March 19th, 2010
12:42 pm
I like D-Wash if we could maybe trade down in late 1st, draft Pouncey and then get D-Wash with maybe a late 2nd round pick that we picked up……
something like that.
March 19th, 2010
12:55 pm
What round do you see them going? This could be a plan "b" if they do not go Graham or Spoon in the 1st, or trade down a few spots.
March 19th, 2010
1:09 pm
Why do yall want a center as the 19th pick considering our NEEDS on defense? Have yall actually watched the Falcons recently? C is not a need NOW. TD drafts on NEED not contingency plans.
-REEfried Roe!!!
March 19th, 2010
1:10 pm
I think the Falcons may like Jerry Hughes as a Brian Orapko type LB (play LB on 1st and 2nd down then put his hand in the dirt on 3rd downs)
March 19th, 2010
1:16 pm
Matty Ice,
From everything I have seen, D Wash is rated as going mid-to-late third round. Unless his stock has risen, we could take him in the third. I actually like that pick, but I am not so sure if he is better than Nicholas. Plus, that means Peterson would have to play SLB. I think he can, but I don't know for sure.
March 19th, 2010
1:29 pm
i would draft the C from BC in a later round- Matty's boy from college.
March 19th, 2010
1:46 pm
Who from Georgia can they draft? The reason the Falcons have not gone to a superbowel is becasue they dont have enough Georgia players on the rooster.
March 19th, 2010
1:49 pm
I'm with "Ree Roe", why in the hell would you want a center with the 19th pick, are you really sAINT's fans? Hey "Sly Ty", let's get you caught up to speed, The Falcons D uses a 4-3 system, which means that we use 3 Linbackers at one time, so while I agree Loften can play, I'm not so sure about the other two linemen (do you get it now). Peterson is aging, he did great in the first 5 games last year then got blown up in coverage like Keith Brooking. We need an OLB, or a DE with that first pick, you can pick up a quaility center in the later rounds. We're not going to need a center this year so for me it's kind of a waste to use a pick on one this year.
March 19th, 2010
2:03 pm
Looks like they're scouting Washington for perhaps their second pick (in the third round). If they get a DE, they may still be in the market for an OLB with the 3rd rd pick. I still think OT could be a sleeper pick in the first round, especially if they feel the DE/OLB player they want is no longer available when they pick.
Falcons are just doing their due diligence on every potential player who can help.
March 19th, 2010
2:19 pm
TCU doesn't have a training table? Where do you get your info? TCU has one of the best strength & conditioning programs in CFB today.
I've watched both of these players extensively as a TCU alum. IMHO, Jerry Hughes is the better player by a fraction. Both players are lighting fast (Hughes was a HS RB) and can hit like nobody's business. There is a reason TCU has had the overall #1 D twice in the last five seasons. Either one of these guys would be a great pickup for the Falcons, however both will be long gone by the end of round 2.
March 19th, 2010
2:20 pm
I go Spoon or Graham in the first and then the center out of BC in the third
March 19th, 2010
2:21 pm
Brandon Graham!
March 19th, 2010
2:44 pm
San Fran or Seattle have no running game, and need a proven feature back. Trade Turner to one of them for their number one. Use it on Spiller. Use our #19 on the OLB or DE we need, or trade down with one of the teams stocked with second and third round picks, like Tampa Bay, or KC, or San Diego, or NE, for a package of 2 oe 3 picks in those rounds so we can upgrade at multiple positions. Would TB send us #35, #43, and #67 to get a second pick in the first round? (TD could work wonders with those picks. That's how his alma mater has always done it–no surprise NE has 3 2nd round picks this year.)
Spiller and Snelling would be a great tandem. Snelling is AT LEAST 90% of what Turner is between the tackles, and is 100% BETTER than Turner catching the ball out of the backfield. Tuner's value has peaked. I don't think he will ever reproduce 2008. When I watch Snelling play, I can't figure out what there is not to like. We improve our running game, and we improve our draft position overall, and for goodness sake, we improve our special teams with Spiller. Having Turner and Snelling on the same roster, at the expense of other positions, is not a good use of resources.
March 19th, 2010
2:53 pm
Falcons want a center at some point. The Falcons have had/or have scheduled personal workouts with the top three centers in this draft – including Pouncey. Also, Falcons have NOT – as of yet 3/19 – had a private workout with the first Defensive End. I'm not fond of taking Pouncey at #19 – if Dimitroff wants Pouncey, I hope he trades down. Personally, I want Weatherspoon at #19. However, if Falcons could trade back to say pick #30, draft Pouncey, pick up a late 2nd/early 3rd and pick up Daryl Washington – yeah, I'm all over that. Falcons WILL take a Center – if you don't agree, argue with Dimitroff and not me – because by his actions, its obvious ReeRow that Dimitroff disagrees with you about the need for a Center.
Magic Man,
Every mock draft I have seen has Daryl Washington going in the 2nd round….not sure what mocks you are looking at. Its possible that D-Wash could last until 3rd round but very, very doubtful
March 19th, 2010
3:01 pm
Doctor Noisewater. I totally agree about drafting the center. I think thats a good move
Old man. You definitely must be and going senile to think we'd trade Turner away. He's still a monster. Many of our players were hurt last year.However, you do make some good points sir. I just know they wouldnt let Turner go thats all….
March 19th, 2010
3:02 pm
UGA GT fan needs to stay off the CRACK PIPE when it comes to who the Falcons draft!!How many National Championship do they have??
March 19th, 2010
3:04 pm
DOL………like I have been saying for months .. keep an eye on Hughes.
March 19th, 2010
3:22 pm
TD's best strategy is to get more players rather than loook for big impact ones. trade down for a 2nd rounder or 2.
March 19th, 2010
3:40 pm
@ – The Falcons Need More Georgia Players -
I just hope you weren't limiting your "need more Georgia players" tirade to UGA players only….if that is the case, then your comment would be totally BS
March 19th, 2010
3:42 pm
I just think they need to go to some kind of helmet with a face guard or something. And couldn't they go with one of these new kinds of hard plastic I hear about? It just seems to me that a thin layer of leather is not enough protection.
Wouldn't that cut down on the injuries for these young men?
(P.S.–It's just an opinion, but I thought I saw some issues with Turner even before his injury. And even if you don't think Snelling is his equal, you gotta admit he is probably the best back up in the league. Maybe too good to be a back-up)
March 19th, 2010
4:29 pm
Hey DOL, have you heard about UAB's Joe Webb? He's trying to switch from QB to WR. He's about 6′3″ and 225 lbs. He ran 4.45 and 4.44 in the 40, had a 42.5″ vertical, an 11′5″ broad jump, has huge hands, and did well in position drills at his pro day. Maybe he's a project but he could develop into a great player. He's projected as a mid to late rounder. Is he on the Falcons' radar? (I sure hope so)
March 19th, 2010
5:06 pm
Old Man, I think it'll be a tough trigger for them too pull but i like it, it would be the right one for us. I hope they've gotten rid the idea of holding onto a player with blind loyalty by now. I do beleave M.Turner has a few good years left in him. But we should move him while we can get something of value for him. Like the team T.D. came from. what did NE do with R. Syemore last year trade him to the Raiders? I like where the old man thoughts are going I mean with the position but not the player C.J. Spiller, no I would perfer the RB from Fresno States R.Mathews. I also like the idea of moving up for Sergio Kindle over Sean Weatherspoon. But most of all I C GREAT THINGS A HEAD. GO FALCONS
March 19th, 2010
5:18 pm
I am thinking a guy can reasonably play weakside at 230 (not ideal but it has been done).
March 19th, 2010
6:38 pm
"He played inside linebacker in the Horned Frogs' 4-2-5 alignment." WTF?
March 19th, 2010
6:42 pm
Spoon belongs here and wants to be here. We create one of the most formidable linebacking corps in the NFL with Lofton, Spoon, and Nicholas, with Peterson becoming the teacher. Then we take WR or OT in the 3rd round. Can't wait for the draft!
March 19th, 2010
6:51 pm
The hell iz a 4-2-5. and how is there an inside backer when there are only 2 bodys on the middle level.
March 19th, 2010
6:54 pm
Ice fan -i share your thoughts on spoon he will be an amazing talent, but If One of the OT's fall i could see us going OT =1st, LB-hughes maybe 3rd. Dont get ur hopes up is all im say'n.
March 19th, 2010
7:16 pm
Will: Will check out Joe Webb. He hasn't come up in our studies yet.
Jerry & I mus write: 4-2-5 is basically a nickel. They ran it as a base D.
March 19th, 2010
7:37 pm
I would love to get a good #1 LB or DE but if they're not a real #! we have possibilities of getting New Englands 44th & 47th or Detroits 34th & 66th or St Louis' 33rd & 58th or San Diegos 28th & 60th or K Cities 36th & 50th. We may have to give a 6th or 7th to go along with some of these. I don't think we would trade with Tampa Bay. What do you think?
March 19th, 2010
8:11 pm
Just not a big fan of taking a guy who used to play with a hand in the dirt now going to the elite level and playing in space and vice versa. You may take a guy like that in the 3rd round on but in the 1st two rounds a team needs a guy that they know has done the job and can do the job.
March 19th, 2010
8:40 pm
ic great things ahead:
I'm not as familiar with Matthews, but the basic idea is the same. Snelling paired with a nimble pass catching back (the guy we always wanted Norwood to be), plus a boatload of 2nd/3d round picks (or keeping our 19 AND getting 2nd/3rd rounders) just seems like the way to go. We have two bonecrushing RBs, both filling the same slot (Snelling and Turner), and one is improving every down he plays and he catches the ball, the other is looking sort of flat (even before his injury), is maybe peaking, and doesn't catch the ball at all. Why do we have both of these guys, yet we don't have a home run threat at RB, and we are sitting here with no second round pick in a deep draft. It's just frustrating. Heck yeah, if the Fresno State RB is better, go for it. He is projected later in the first, early second. That just means we keep our spot at 19, and get more picks for Turner. The whole point is, why are we carrying both of these guys? You could make an argument that we deal Snelling, but how does a GM in another city sell that to his fans? Turner would get more positive pub. We just get a ton more value moving Turner, it seems to me.
It's got to be hard to work a bombshell deal like I want. Too many moving parts. But it's OK to daydream. I see Matthews stock is rising fast, so maybe he's the ticket for us. It would be great to have a Csonka-type back and a burner who can both play. Right now we have two Csonkas, but no Mercury Morris. (Are you old enough to remember those guys???)
March 19th, 2010
9:12 pm
Zonk and Morris were very good OM. Do you remember Walt Garrison and Calvin Hill? I was a Cowboy fan in those days.
March 19th, 2010
10:34 pm
Absolutely. Having two guys to share carries like Hill and Garrison, or run together in situations, would be fantastic, but Norwood seems to have fizzled on us. We need a bruiser, plus a guy who has that quickness and home run speed, but still bounces off a tackle or two. And both with pass catching ability.
I think Matty Ice had a little sophmore slump, and learned that being good at this level means you have to bust your ass every day. He is, I think, going to rebound, especially if we give him pass catching backs. At WR, don't underestimate the impact of Douglas coming back. We have a chance here to get that home run RB threat, AND solve the OLB and DE issues, in one felled swoop. If Turner and Snelling are both on the roster on week one, I'll be scratching my head. Wonder what Matty Ice would say about who he prefers as his bruiser RB?
March 19th, 2010
11:05 pm
OM, I think Ovie throws us curve ball in that situation. He is a good blocking back but cannot run the ball worth a shet. I as you don't see Turner and Snelling on the roster in week one. I would love to see the two back attack again.
March 19th, 2010
11:32 pm
Old Man,
Oh no. I dont disagree with that at all. I also think Snelling is good and could start for a number of teams. I guess I just mean TD and Blank have spent $ and want to get all they can out of it. I agree that he was missing something before he finally got going but hey this year will show us if he's really more like Turner two seasons ago or Turner from last year.
March 19th, 2010
11:54 pm
Nobody will give you a #1 for Michael Turner. Have you seen the trades recently in the NFL? We'd be lucky to get somebody's 2nd rounder for the Burner. Old Man is smoking something funky in his retirement.
March 20th, 2010
1:44 am
Im not impressed by the center but if u r going 2 take him, he's not a 19th pick. If u wont 2 win u get playmakers…everybody talkn bout thugs cause he got braids, black, or got n trouble before.. that dnt make u a thug. Go back 2 the Smith yrs cause "we" always gonna b losers wit these fans. I been lookn @ the blog 4 days and everytime "Vick" or "thugs" come up…… please somebody give me the definition of a thug?

How about switching number one spots, plus a high two, or two second rounders (there are about 4 teams with 2 or 3 second rounders)? Interesting you don't say it would be bad to deal Turner if we picked up the home run RB and got some other picks.
March 20th, 2010

Someone was saying the NYGs might pick Spoon @ 14 before we could get him @ 19. I don't see Spoon in Mel Kipers 1st round picks. Was that old info or what? Help me out here.

Old Man, all I have to say is, I'm glad that you are not the GM of the Atl. Falcons.
March 20th, 2010
8:27 am
Do not believe there will be a center taken in the first round by any team. We need big nasty lineman at tackle on either side of the ball.
March 20th, 2010
8:35 am
Taking a center in the 1st round is too ignorant a move for this Atl. GM, and for any other GM in the NFL. But the Falcons definitely need to improve their Oline.
March 20th, 2010
11:20 am
You need to respect your elders! You young whippersnappers are all alike! I had to walk five miles to school when I was a boy. What kind of crazy music is that "disco" trash the kids play today? They don't make things like they used to. Young people today have it easy compared to us. We need to get that Reagan guy out of office! (He's still president, right?). Fire Norm Van Brocklin, he stinks as coach.
March 20th, 2010
12:37 pm
Old Man, I like your thinking. I'm not sure how Turner will return this year. He was a different back last year compared to the year before. He should still have some treadlife on him though since he backed up LT in San Diego. I will want to see Atlanta trade back and get some extra picks. This draft is deep enough that we can get a TE, OL, DE & OLB that can play for several years for us. I don't see anyone (unless somebody falls to us) that we need at our current spot. There will be plenty of bargains early in the 2nd round.
If Tamba Bay would give us #35, #43, and #67 for our Number 1, I'd knock people down to finish that trade. Unfortunately, I don't think our pick is high enough to warrant that.
March 20th, 2010
1:13 pm
Old Man – I know that you are not really an old man. I am older than dirt, I had to walk to school 7 mi. uphill both ways in the snow in Savannah, and fight the Indians while I was going.

Driving simulator demonstrates distraction hazards
November 28, 2012 | AP
A simulated driving exercise aimed at highlighting the dangers texting and driving has opened the eyes of some Michigan drivers.
The recent event held at the Monroe Township Fire
Station involved driving golf cart through a maze of orange cones with a cell phone in the driver's lap.
Drivers were given three text messages to see how they would react. The drivers would pick up the phone and look at the text, which led many of them to go off course.
Gleishya Morales drove over two orange cones and
dragged another, but was one of several drivers who also trashed the course.
The 16-year-old Morales tells
The Monroe Evening News
she now realizes that her "life is way

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - The benching of LSU running back Jeremy Hill is over, and he is already on the board for the ninth-ranked Tigers.
Hill, who was arrested last spring for landing a punch outside a bar, saw his first action in the first series of the second quarter of Saturday night's game against UAB.
After sitting out one game and one quarter, he was in for all of a three-play, 19-yard scoring drive early in the second quarter, which ended with Hill's 3-yard run through the left side of the line.
The touchdown gave LSU, a five-touchdown favorite, a 28-0 lead over UAB.
Hill was LSU's leading rusher last season, with 755 yards and 12 touchdowns.

The S15 is a rear-wheel-drive sports coupe, powered by Nissan's SR20DET; a 2.0 litre in-line 4 cylinder turbocharged engine with air-to-air intercooler that delivers a power output of 250 horsepower that results in a power-to-weight ration of less than 5Kg/PS. The S15 has a new 6-speed close-ratio gearbox for improved acceleration and features a specially tuned exhaust system characterized by a powerful sound at low engine speeds and a liner increase at high engine speeds.
Steering system stiffness has been increased to provide improved steering feel. The front strut suspension and rear multi-link suspension has been carried over to the S15 Silvia. Strengthening the upper member of the hood structure and adding reinforcements to rear pillars has increased body stiffness.
Braking System
The Nissan Silvia spec-R series is fitted with ventilated front disc brakes with opposed 4-piston calipers, highly responsive ABS and a larger brake booster. Larger brake rotors and a larger brake boosters are also used on Spec-S.
The driving position has been ergonomically designed to allow quicker execution of driving controls and to provide a seating posture for minimal fatigue during driving. The instrumentation is laid out with a large size tachometer positioned in the center of the cluster. The Spec-R also comes with titanium-look instrument finishers and a 52mm boost pressure gauge is attached to the driver's side front pillar. (The Spec-S Aero model comes with an oil pressure gauge.)
Triple Safety Concept
The first is information safety for warning the driver of potential danger, the second is control safety for assisting the driver in avoiding potential danger, and the third is impact safety for helping reduce injury in the event of an accident.

WINNIPEG -- They may be the Jets, but they'll be dressed in navy.
The NHL's Winnipeg Jets have unveiled their uniform which features two shades of blue.
The home jersey is navy blue -- officially "polar night blue" -- with striping in white and lighter blue.
The away jersey is white with the two shades of blue as striping.
Both blue colours have links to the air force -- the lighter shade matches the historical colours of the Royal Canadian Air Force and the darker comes from the paint used on many of the military's current aircraft.
Both home and away sweaters feature the team's new circular logo on the chest.

Wow, Mr Baker has been busy again, posting replies to all our nosey questions about his likes, dislikes, ironing skills etc. May I take this opportunity, once again, to thank him for his time and extreme loyalty to us, his fans, and offering us this wonderful chance to interact with him on such a personal level. It really is appreciated, sir.
So has he satisfied your curiosity, or has he put another question into your head for next month?
What have you thought about his replies?
I asked about puddings, and he told us about his childhood favourite, "Souls in Torment", which sounds so similar to a childhood favourite of mine. We would have a baked rice pudding with sultanas and cinnamon, and it was so yummy. The skin on top was always the best bit.
As for raspberries and cream, his current favourite, oh yes, a true British Classic, although I would be inclined to turn it into a pavlova with a simple meringue base made with eggs from our own chickens. Tempted, Tom?
What did he reveal to YOU, I wonder, and were you expecting his response?

Developmental Education - Oklahoma High School Indicators Project
participation in developemental education for Oklahoma High School Graduates in Oklahoma Public Higher Education
Of the fall 2012 first-time freshmen (19,098), 39.4 percent (7,532) enrolled in one or more developmental courses. The unduplicated percent has increased since first being reported for fall 1996 first-time freshmen (37.3), but has decreased 3.1 points from fall 2011 (42.5). The developmental Math rate also decreased from the previous year (38.0) to 35.3 percent. Developmental English decreased 2.4 points to 16.5 percent. Science developmental classes remain relatively steady, decreasing only one-tenth of one percent from the previous year. Developmental reading, the only subject area that has increased from the previous year, rose 2.4 points to 9.5 percent.
Shifts in the percent of developmental education can in part be explained by a change in methodology used to better identify developmental courses. Beginning in 2008, changes in reporting requirements to federal and regional entities necessitated updates to the Unitized Data System (UDS), the statewide data collection process. As a result, new procedures had to be developed to continue to provide quality data to the various education stakeholders. Therefore, comparisons of current findings to prior year reports are limited.Remediation Rates Fall 2012

Exxon Mobil Corporation Stock Buy Recommendation Reiterated (XOM)
- EXCLUSIVE OFFER: Jim Cramer's Protégé, Dave Peltier, only buys Stocks Under $10 that he thinks could potentially double. See what he's trading today with a 14-day FREE pass.
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels industry average. The net income increased by 0.5% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, going from $9,450.00 million to $9,500.00 million.
- XOM's debt-to-equity ratio is very low at 0.08 and is currently below that of the industry average, implying that there has been very successful management of debt levels. Despite the fact that XOM's debt-to-equity ratio is low, the quick ratio, which is currently 0.58, displays a potential problem in covering short-term cash needs.
- The return on equity has improved slightly when compared to the same quarter one year prior. This can be construed as a modest strength in the organization. In comparison to other companies in the Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels industry and the overall market on the basis of return on equity, EXXON MOBIL CORP has underperformed in comparison with the industry average, but has greatly exceeded that of the S&P 500.
- The stock price has risen over the past year, but, despite its earnings growth and some other positive factors, it has underperformed the S&P 500 so far. Turning our attention to the future direction of the stock, it goes without saying that even the best stocks can fall in an overall down market. However, in any other environment, this stock still has good upside potential despite the fact that it has already risen in the past year.

Qualification Round Group E features two EuroBasket Women regulars in the last editions in Latvia and Greece, a historical great in Italy, an ambitious Finland and outsiders Luxemburg.
By Paul Nilsen
A quick glance at their previous qualification record and you will be forgiven for thinking Finland are real underdogs and can only realistically target Luxembourg for wins. Peel back the outer layer and explore the situation in more depth though and you will see things could have been so different had they not lost a bunch of tight games. Led by their inspirational veteran Taru Tuukkanen, they look like they could have a lot of new and fresh faces which new play-caller Anton Mirolybov will have to get playing together. In fact, in the preliminary roster of 17 players, an unbelievable 11 are aged 21 or younger. Finnish basketball is on the up after the incredible performance of the men's team at the EuroBasket in Lithuania last year and a good display by the women would be a real tonic and continue the momentum.
Key Player: Taru TuukkanenExciting Talent: Krista GrossKey Absence: Minna StenX-Factor: They lost so many close games last time, will they have learned from the experience? In Just Six Words: Could be a real dark horse.
Having unexpectedly crashed out in the opening round at EuroBasket Women last summer, many felt it was time to bring in a new generation for an ageing Greece national team and that has been somewhat accelerated with news this week that former EuroBasket Women MVP Evina Maltsi won't participate this summer after all. This will come as a bitter blow for new head coach Alekos Daglas who has taken over as head coach from Kostas Missas. And especially since he will also be without the influential Stella Kaltsidou and Anna Spyridopoulou with both being ruled out with injuries. But, the medium to long term situation still looks unclear and while the likes of teenage forward Artemis Spanou continues to develop, there is perhaps a lack of depth in terms of young players to replace the still sizeable number of veterans on the team. However, when it comes to the short term objective of this summer and making it to France next year, all that matters is that Greece punch their ticket and they stand every chance in what looks to be a wide open group, even without their big hitters.
Key Player: Dimitra KalentzouExciting Talent: Artemis SpanouKey Absence: Evina MaltsiX-Factor: Greece has lacked firepower in recent times and without Kaltsidou, Maltsi and Spyridopoulou, that will be even more of a problem. The level of their defence will be key since they will probably need to grind out the wins against Latvia and Italy in particular.In Just Six Words: Weaker group dilutes impact of absences.
No team in Europe will undergo a greater transition this summer than Italy. After failing in the Additional Qualifying Round last year, missing out at EuroBasket Women proved a watershed for the Azzurre. Roberto Ricchini was installed as head coach and evidence of the dramatic revolution was that a paltry four players survived the changing of the guard. It would have been five but for the ACL injury sustained by the talented Chiara Consolini who will be missed. Gone are players like Angela Gianolla, Kathrin Ress, Laura Macchi, Jenifer Nadalin and Simona Ballardini and an exciting new team full of players from right around the Italian league have picked up the baton and head into the unknown. Well at least something of the unknown but there is every chance that with players drawn from one of the best domestic leagues in Europe, they have a shot at establishing themselves and succeeding in their mission. However the national team is another level altogether as Giorgia Sottana recently pointed out and watching Italy evolve should be one of the most fascinating aspects of the summer.
Key Player: Raffaella MasciadriExciting Talent: Giorgia SottanaKey Absence: Chiara ConsoliniX-Factor: Veteran star Masciadri failing to nail down a WNBA contract is very much to Italy's gain and the decision of New York Liberty may prove a blessing for this young team if she finds her shooting rhythm. In Just Six Words: Must find their new identity quickly.
Unfortunately for Latvian fans and new head coach Aigars Nerips, the build-up to this summer has been more about who won't be playing rather than who will. Having dealt reasonably successfully with the likes of the stellar Anete Jekabsone-Zogota not being present in previous qualification campaigns, it looks like a tough one this summer. Not only is their star name missing, but also influential guard Elina Babkina while Gunta Basko-Melnbarde and Ieva Kublina both decided to retire. Then, when Zane Tamane hit the WNBA trail at the start of the summer it looked pretty bleak. Thankfully for Latvia, they could have their former Fenerbahce center back in the line-up after Tamane was waived and returned home although an injury may prevent her from lining up initially. But, if she can bring some of her EuroLeague Women form from last season it would be invaluable to the team which still has some exciting young talent emerging.
Key Player: Zane TamaneExciting Talent: Kristine VitolaKey Absence: Elina BabkinaX-Factor: There are a few vacancies for players to really make a big name for themselves both in the backcourt and the frontcourt. The unanswered question is whether a couple of players can really step up sufficiently to catapult them to France? They also need to look after the ball better than they did last summer and that won't be easy without Babkina on board.In Just Six Words: Return of Tamane boosts prospects enormously.
No nation will take a bigger leap of faith this summer when it comes to testing their ability than Luxembourg. This tiny basketball nation always played in Division B in the old two-tier format but is now ready to go up against some of the giants and continue a long journey of improvement. They only recently began to win at Division B level so this qualification campaign will be a monumental challenge, but Luxembourg must have no fear factor. They only have a few pro-players in the likes of Tessy Hetting and Nadia Mossong but they also have great team chemistry and a super teenage talent in Lena Hetto. To compete is the first aim and you never know, they might end up slaying a giant!
Key Player: Nadia MossongExciting Talent: Lena HettoKey Absence: NoneX-Factor: They have to get the fundamentals right and can't afford to give themselves an even bigger mountain to climb by shooting 56% from the free-throw line like last year for example.In Just Six Words: Minnows have absolutely nothing to lose

-- Randy Dotinga
WEDNESDAY, Sept. 22 (HealthDay News) -- Young people with the
kind of irregular heartbeat known as atrial fibrillation may be
better off undergoing surgery to fix the problem instead of taking
medication first, a new study suggests.
Atrial fibrillation, which causes a person's pulse rate to
change from minute to minute, can boost the risk of stroke and
cause other problems. The condition is rare in younger people and
can occur for no known reason.
There are a number of treatments for atrial fibrillation,
including medication, cardioversion (in which a doctor shocks the
heart to try to restore it to a normal rhythm) and catheter
ablation (a surgery that destroys the tissue in the heart that
causes the problem).
A heart specialist who's familiar with the new study findings
said ablation is indeed a worthwhile alternative. "Younger patients
tend to respond very well to this therapy," said Dr. John Day,
medical director of heart rhythm services at Intermountain Medical
Center in Murray, Utah.
In the study, which was released online Sept. 21 in advance of
publication in the journal
Circulation: Arrhythmia & Electrophysiology, researchers examined the medical records of 1,548 patients who underwent catheter ablation between 2000 and 2008 in the University of Pennsylvania Health System. The average age of the patients was 56 years, and 70 percent were men.
The investigators found that younger patients had fewer
complications than older ones and did just as well after the
surgery. A year after surgery, 87 percent of the patients under the
age of 45 had experienced little or no atrial fibrillation.
Why choose the surgery instead of medication? "While atrial
fibrillation is more common with increasing age, clinical
experience has suggested that younger patients tend to be more
symptomatic and less willing to take long-term medications," Dr.
Peter Leong-Sit, study lead author and an arrhythmia physician at
London Health Sciences-University Hospital in London, Ontario,
Canada, said in a news release from the American Heart
The surgery isn't cheap. It can cost $30,000-$40,000, Day noted.
But studies have shown it can be cheaper in the long run if the
alternative is a lifetime of medications and complicated testing
and care, he added.

The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia
Unraveling the Mysteries of Hyperinsulinism - Introduction
Charles A. Stanley, MD: Hyperinsulinism, or HI, is the most common cause of hypoglycemia in young infants and newborns.
Andrea Kelly, NP: Hyperinsulinism is a rare genetic disorder that causes the pancreas to produce too much insulin.
Charles A. Stanley, MD: So insulin is being secreted all the time, even when the blood sugar is too low.
Andrea Kelly, NP: The beta cells in the pancreas are responsible for the insulin production.
Eduardo Ruchelli, MD: These specific cells that are specialized in the secretion of insulin lose the ability to respond to the levels of sugar in the normal manner.
Andrea Kelly, NP: The excess insulin in the body tricks the body to think that it doesn't need to pull the stored sugar from the liver, or break down the fat for fuel.
N. Scott Adzick, MD: That leads to severe hypoglycemia or low blood sugar. This can impair the baby's brain function and in some cases can be life threatening.
Andrea Kelly, NP: The incidence of hyperinsulinism is 1 in 50,000 and there are some ethnic backgrounds, like Ashkenazi Jewish, where it's actually a lot more common. It's 1 in 25,000.
N. Scott Adzick, MD: There are probably about 100 to 200 hyperinsulinism cases per year in the U.S.
Charles A. Stanley, MD: About a third of babies in the past with hyperinsulinism have some degree of developmental delay and mental retardation and we think that that's preventable with early diagnosis and rapid, effective treatment.
N. Scott Adzick, MD: The longer it takes until diagnosis and referral the higher likelihood that the child will have catastrophic consequences, including severe brain injury.
