Houston Dynamo
Go behind the scenes at BBVA Compass Stadium for the Dynamo's match vs. Toronto FC on June 22 in this edition of TunnelVision, presented by HCC.
With the Dynamo Charities Cup less than a month away, we want to update you on what's happening with the Stoke City squad.
In addition to playing the Houston Dynamo on July 24 and FC Dallas on July 27, Stoke City has recently added a macth against the Philadelphia Union on July 30 to round out the Potter's U.S. tour. Former Dynamo all-star and current Stoke City midfielder Geoff Cameron makes his first return since his transfer to the EPL last year.
Mark Hughes replaced Tony Pulis as manager of Stoke City after Pulis was fired last month. Hughes' first move as manager was signing winger Jermaine Pennant to a new one-year contract. Other than that, the new manager does not plan on adding a significant number of new players to the squad.
Stoke City Player of the Year Asmir Begovic is pleased that the club brought in Mark Hughes to lead the squad. He believes that Hughes, with his successful managerial record, will be able to guide the squad to be a consistent top-half team for years to come.
Stoke City announced the signing of two new coaches who will work under new manager Mark Hughes on June 20. Mark Bowen will serve as assistant manager to Hughes, while Eddie Niedzwiecki joins the squad as first team coach. Both men have previously worked with Hughes on other teams.
New-signee Jermaine Pennant says that the Stoke City fans were a huge reason for his signing a new contract with the squad. He believes this new era for the club with a change in management and attitude will help the club going forward.
In their first five games of the 2013-2014 season, Stoke City will face three tough opponents: Liverpool on opening day, Manchester City on September 14th and Arsenal a week later. Despite the difficult start, the Potters are embracing the challenge.
After the U.S. national team's 1-0 victory over Honduras, Stoke City's Geoff Cameron's dream of playing for the U.S. in the World Cup next year in Brazil are getting closer to becoming reality. Cameron has played a vital role for the stars and stripes by being featured in each of the U.S.'s World Cup Qualification matches this term.
Former Dynamo and current Stoke City defender/midfielder Geoff Cameron was in town for Saturday's match against Toronto FC, and we caught up with him to get his thoughts on the BBVA Compass Dynamo Chariites Cup match between the Dynamo and Stoke City on July 24.
Tickets are still available for this exciting matchup, which benefits Dynamo Charities' Building a Better Houston program. Visit HoustonDynamo.com/Stoke for more info and tickets.

Did you miss Sunday's episode of MLS 36 featuring Dynamo midfielder Brad Davis? Don't worry, we have you covered. Check it out below.
Will Bruin and Giles Barnes share their frustrations at the lack of finishing against Toronto FC.
The Houston Dynamo will be looking to end a rare home winless streak when they play host to a Toronto FC side looking to put together back-to-back wins for the first time in nearly a year as the two clubs meet Saturday evening at BBVA Compass Stadium. The Dynamo saw their overall winless streak extended to five games at midweek, dropping a 2-0 decision at the Montréal Impact. Toronto FC put an end to an 11-game league winless run of their own last weekend, with a 2-1 win at D.C. United.

Recipe by Cindy Carnes
"This cake was first made for me by a friend while I was visiting her after she had delivered her 11th child. I told her, 'I should have baked for you!'"

3/4 cup
2 1/8 cups
white sugar
2 teaspoons
vanilla extract
3 cups
all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons
baking soda
1/4 teaspoon
1 1/2 cups
2 teaspoons
lemon juice
1 1/2 cups
mashed bananas
1/2 cup
butter, softened
1 (8 ounce) package
cream cheese, softened
3 1/2 cups
confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon
vanilla extract
Baking a cake at a ridiculously low temperature (traditionally it's 350 degrees), then putting a hot cake right out of the oven into the freezer? What? I was tempted to simply bake this in the traditional manner, 350 degrees until done, then let cool on a wire rack. But I noticed the submitter's review, and she was so adamant about the unconventional baking temperature and cooling method that I thought to be fair to her I'd give it a try (especially since it was the rare occasion where I had enough room in the freezer for it). Well let me tell you, I don't know if the cake would have turned out any differently had I baked it in the traditional manner, but this was one, outstanding banana cake! To tell you the truth, I was surprised. It is not uncommon for these types of cakes to be dry or not to be baked through. But this one has a soft outer crust, not overly browned, and a moist, tender interior. It was fun to give this unusual set of directions a try and I'm glad I did. Other than make a half recipe in an 8x8" pan and adjusting the baking time accordingly, I followed the directions exactly and was not disappointed. Now that I've had the first piece I can't wait to share it! The added perk was that because the cake is cooled in the freezer, you can bake and serve this in no time! The frosting is a tried and true cream cheese frosting, and topped with a sprinkle of finely chopped nuts, this was just a simply delicious and beautiful cake.
The cake is just OK. The cooking time was 30 plus minutes off. The cake was too sweet, heavy,and not quite what I expect out of a cake. I like trying new recipes, so I am glad I tried it, but it is the end of the road for this one. I will find another recipe to use up bananas in the future.

This is my recipe, the temperature is not a mistake in the directions. It is to bake at a slow rate to keep the cake moist. This recipe has been made by tons of friends of mine over and over, not one of them has had a problem with the directions, temperature, or the ingredients. Check your oven temperature with a thermometer, also use the correct size pan. It all makes a difference!!! Pyrex pans are freezer to oven...their claim to fame when first on the market...that dates me, I guess.
To anyone reading this, do not hesitate to make this cake. I think the cooking temperature and placing it in the freezer after baking is what makes this cake outstanding. I myself made a couple of changes. 1.) I did not have buttermilk, so I used regular milk and added 1.5 tablespoons of vinegar to make it comparable to buttermilk. 2.) I had 4 large bananas so I used all of them, (I did not use lemon juice) 3) I used 2 cups of white sugar and 1/4c of brown sugar 4) I used about another additional tablespoon of vanilla. 5) I had to bake it a LOT, LOT longer than the recipe calls for. Every oven is different, so just keep checking it and don't rush it. 6. I only used 2 cups of conf. sugar in the icing. Just add the sugar by the cup and check taste after every one and stop adding it when the flavor is the way you like it.
It is worth the extra time. I know I could have won a cake cook-off with this one.
This is my first banana cake and I followed the recipe exactly. Boy am I glad I did! This is so moist and delicious!!!! I topped it with 1/2 cup of finely chopped walnuts which is the only thing I would add. I was a bit skeptical about cooking a cake at 275 and then putting it in the freezer. I never heard of such a thing. Please follow the directions, you'll be glad you did. For me it took 1 hour and 10 minutes until the toothpick came out clean. Maybe that's where people are having trouble - taking the cake out of the oven before it's done and then putting it in the freezer. I made the icing while the cake was cooling in the freezer. I topped it with the icing and nuts and then stuck it in the refrigerator to have after dinner. I will definitely make this again!
A WOW!!! cake - brilliantly easy and simply scrumptious! At this time of posting, it is hardpressed to keep the remaining half for dear hubby when he gets home later, lol; the children - who vehemently declared not liking banana cake, groaned and moaned their pleasure and this will now be THE banana cake recipe with us. The changes after reading all the reviews (thank you to all) are: decreased the sugar to 1 cup using (packed) brown sugar, increased bananas to 1 3/4 cups, used self-raising flour with 1 teaspoon baking powder, omitted the salt, doubled the vanilla and baked it for 40 minutes at 325 degrees. Tried freezing but 10 minutes only just to cool it down quick smart; the cake is moist even without freezing it for the stated time ... I have the proof ;) so to 'speak', lol. And I sprinkled a bit of chocolate rice on one side, left the middle plain and chopped pecans on the last 'division' ... and served the cake with homemade caramel sauce. With the decreased amount of sugar, this is just right. We loved the plain or with pecans, but not chocolate rice, maybe either some cocoa powder or melted chocolate would be better. Kept the cream cheese frosting for my carrot cake. Thanks to both Cindy and her friend who shared the recipe with us here. Good one.
I always make a recipe the first time without any changes. This was "country good", however this is more like a light banana bread in texture than that of cake, REAL HEAVY. By the second day we scraped the frosting off and just ate the cake. As with all cakes I bake 300 degrees seems to make a more tender cake. This batter goes from jiggly center to done quickly and may need more oven time than the recipe called for.
I didn't think that a better recipe existed besides my grandmother's, but boy was I wrong! This banana cake was unbelievable. I took it to a family dinner and got rave reviews. Was told that this is the best banana cake ever had by one guest and my grandfather said he would even eat it without the icing! I followed the recipe pretty closely although I did take other's advice and bake for about 45 minutes on 325. Threw it straight in the freezer for 45 minutes afterwards. Delicious icing- even my husband, a serious icing critic, loved this! Plenty of icing left that I put in the freezer for maybe cinnamon rolls one morning. Excellent dessert Cindy and thank you for sharing this with us all!

line or the putter that inspired it, the handcrafted
zai sabi.
The zai philosophy
The zai manufacturing ethos is driven by three core values: quality, performance and innovation. The standards we aim for are without equal. The methods we use to attain them are as radical as they are uncompromising.
The name zai comes from a Rhaeto-Romanic word meaning 'tough'. It also symbolises resilience and conviction. zai follows no trend or tradition, but forges its own path in design, development and manufacture.
zai is about reduction to the essential in the quest for natural balance. Form follows function. A zai ski is a quiet statement of individuality and control. It does not require garish logos and graphics. Good design speaks for itself.
It is these intrinsic, lasting qualities that give zai products their soul, and make them so rewarding to own and to use.
All zai skis are handcrafted in Disentis, in the heart of the Swiss Alps. Manufacturing is geared towards producing the finest skis possible, regardless of the time, effort and cost involved. Quality and durability are second to none: zai skis decrease in tension by only 5% after 100 days of skiing, compared to 25% after just 30 days for mass-produced skis. zai skiers can expect to enjoy many years of use from their skis, with little or no discernable drop in performance.
Nothing compares to the feeling of riding zai. zai skis are characterised by incredibly smooth, solid handling, with effortless control through turns right across the speed range. You can opt to cruise in comfort or 'push the envelope', confident that the ski will never reach its limits. This is why skiers of all abilities choose zai, from beginners to Olympic champions. And because zai skis maintain their torsion so well, the performance you love will continue year after year.
Passion drives constant innovation. zai's forward-thinking approach to ski design makes the impossible possible – whether it's bending stone to make our famous CFS® cores, or creating a new high-tech material where none before existed. Even the machinery in our factory is specially engineered to operate at the standards we demand. By pioneering new designs, construction methods and technologies, zai continually redefines the boundaries of modern ski-making.
zai is a world leader in the use of new and radical materials for ski building. Many of the materials we use are developed and patented by zai. Cut open a zai ski (quite a task!) and you will find materials as varied and exotic as granite, cedar wood, vulcanized rubber, space-age thermoplastics and military-grade Dyneema®. By combining them in groundbreaking ways, zai achieves levels of quality, handling and durability far beyond those of a conventional ski.
Not just anyone can build a zai ski. Our craftsmen come from the Surselva region, where working with wood and metal is a traditional skill, and skiing is a way of life. Their artisan knowledge, often passed down through generations, is complimented by the most advanced ski-making technology available, including the world's most advanced CNC ski press. This handmade meets high-tech approach allows us to design and build skis in unique and innovative ways.
What passion can do
zai was founded in 2003 by leading Swiss ski designer Simon Jacomet, with the aim of building a ski that did not compromise on quality, materials or performance. The result redefined the perimeters of modern ski design.
zai skis are handcrafted in the Swiss Alps from the very finest materials, including wood, stone and patented carbon fibres. In terms of quality and longevity zai is in class of its own: our skis lose just 5% tension after 100 days of use, compared to 25% over 30 days for mass-produced skis.
zai skis are owned and loved by skiers of all abilities around the world, from beginners to Olympic champions. All share the same passion that drives us in our mission to build the ultimate ski. We look forward to sharing that passion with you.
The zai factory
All zai skis are built at our factory in Disentis, in the heart of the Swiss Alps. Having the mountains on our doorstep means we can test our skis at every stage of development, in all conditions. The rugged landscape of the Surselva valley inspires our work.
The factory is part workshop, part high-tech laboratory. Construction is carried out by hand and complimented by cutting-edge technology, including the world's most advanced CNC ski press. Most of the machinery we use is custom-made.
zai employs local craftsmen and technicians from the Graubünden region, where carpentry and metalwork are traditional skills, and where skiing is a way of life. The pride we take in our work shows in every ski we build.
the zai poem
All'entschatta era il cuolm
pitgogna e pezza
zaccas e zincas
crappa e greppa
zai anfla la lingia
che capescha il cuolm
termaglia ella neiv
sco la curnaglia el tschiel
zai, ski zaiíra
in titan
che fa siu tgau
senza cumpromiss
senza mort
— Leo Tuor
In the beginning
was the mountain
Summits and steepness
pinnacles and peaks
stony, rocky ranges
zai finds the line
reading the mountain
plays in the snow
like jackdaws in the sky
zai, the tougher ski
A titan
going his own way
not willing to compromise
not willing to die
— Leo Tuor

The reason for purchasing a franchise versus starting out on your own is simple:
Franchised businesses are more successful.
In Michael Gerber's book E-Myth, he reports that 80% of all start-up businesses fail. In contrast, according to a study by the US Commercial Service, 90% of franchised businesses are still in operation after five year.
Let's be clear starting a business is a risk, however you can minimise that risk and give yourself a better chance for success by choosing to invest in a franchise system versus starting out on your own.
If you are exploring a business opportunity for the first time or you are an experienced business owner the benefits of a franchise system are hard to dispute:

Paul di Resta is looks ahead to his "highlight of the year" while Adrian Sutil believes there is "much more to come" from Force India...
Paul di Resta is looks ahead to his "highlight of the year" while Adrian Sutil believes there is "much more to come" from Force India.
For all the latest F1 odds on the British GP, round eight of the 2013 F1 Championship, visit Sky Bet.
Paul di Resta
Q: Paul, you've been in the points in six out of seven races - that's some good consistency...
PdR: "I think we can be pretty happy with that. All things considered we've managed to get some good results and kept up our momentum. The last two results, in particular, felt very satisfying, especially because we managed to get the strategy spot on to come through the field. These results set us up nicely for this weekend, which is a massive one for everyone in the team."
Q: Tell us about your emotions ahead of the weekend...
PdR: "It's always a highlight of the year. When I was young I dreamed about coming to Silverstone as a Formula One driver so it's always a very special weekend. As a venue it's spectacular with some of the greatest corners of the year and the atmosphere is just incredible. The place is packed all weekend and the buzz from the fans gives you so much energy."
Q: What are your expectations for the race?
PdR: "With the way our car is working these tyres at the moment, we are looking really healthy. I believe this car is the best we've ever had and everyone in the team is working hard to squeeze even more performance from it. The key for Silverstone is to hopefully get three successful days in a row on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. That's what we did in Bahrain and it really paid off. If we can do it at Silverstone, then hopefully we can make a big impact on the race."
Adrian Sutil
Q: Adrian, after points in the last couple of races you must be feeling positive ahead of Silverstone...
AS: "I think it was important to have these results, especially the fifth place in Monaco, because it helps you forget some of the missed opportunities from earlier in the season. Canada was another race where we had good speed and considering everything that happened to me during the race it was good to come away with a point. As a team we've shown just how competitive we can be, but I feel there is still much more to come."
Q: Silverstone is loved by most drivers - are you a fan of the track?
AS: "It's not my top favourite, but it's a great place to drive a Formula One car. It's fast and flowing, so it's quite a big change from Monaco and Canada, but I'm confident that we can go there and perform well. I enjoy the high-speed sections and also the newer start of the lap, which definitely makes it easier to overtake compared to the old layout."
Q: It's a local and busy race for the team - what is your plan for the week?
AS: "I will be in the UK for the whole week. There's a simulator session on Wednesday to prepare for the weekend and I will be spending a lot of time at the factory. It's a good chance to spend more time with the team members who don't come to races."

Recipe by TUNISIANSWIFE
"Simple to make with only three ingredients with a variety of uses. Great to use over Bundt cake because it sets up nicely. The extra sauce may be refrigerated and reheated to serve over ice cream or your favorite dessert. I came up with this once when I didn't have any confectioner's sugar to make a glaze for a Bundt cake."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

1 (14 ounce) can
sweetened condensed milk
1 cup
semisweet chocolate chips
1 teaspoon
vanilla extract
I unexpectedly decided to glaze a cake I had made to dress it up. I really wanted a chocolate ganache, but found I had no heavy cream--and then I remembered this recipe. In just a few minutes I had the most luxurious, fudgey icing, almost like a hot fudge sauce. This recipe saved my cake!
I made this glaze yesterday for my chocolate bunt cake. Yes, it is easy, yes, it tastes OK (nothing special). This recipe makes enough "glaze" for 4 bunt cakes, I cut it in half and it was enough to frost/coat the entire cake (too much to be applied as a glaze). When it sets up on the cake it turns dull and blah looking it isn't pretty like I prefer on my cakes, after all we eat with our eyes. I will not make it again.

Awsome! I used White Chocolate instead of Milk Chocolate Chips. It melted beautifully and was delicious over a devils food chocolate bundt cake.
Tuni, Tuni, Tuni, what more can I say? This was FABULOUS!! Used this to glaze my daughter Ashley's icecream birthday cake today and I'm still scoopin' up what fell to the plate!!!! I swear, I didn't even eat the cake; only your glaze. The kids and hubby were rolling their eyes and watching me as I was "mmmmmmmmmmmmming" over this as they were all munching on the cake. For all who are interested, I have a big problem melting chocolate. Sometimes it comes out just fine, but other times, it gets all dry and clumpy. Don't get it because I've done the microwave method and the double boiler. This was amazing because with the addition of the condensed milk it came out perfectly! No fuss, no muss. Family commends you because they know what I go thru and they loved it. Thank you so much darlin'!
Quick, easy and very chocolatey! Would take flavorings (almond, orange, etc) well. Used to top a bundt cake. The glaze does set, but not hard and crackly - it's still soft just not sticky.
I would never have guessed that such a simple sauce could make an excellent icing without butter. The flavor rivals any powdered sugar icing I've made and sets up beautifully. I added another 1/2 cup of chocolate chips and used 1 T of butterscotch schnappes in place of the vanilla. Excellent recipe Tunisianswife!
This was incredible. Very easy to make and absolutely delicious. I used it to glaze an amaretto chocolate cake, so I used 1/2 tsp of vanilla and a 1/2 tsp of almond extract in the glaze (instead of the 1 tsp of vanilla that the recipe called for), and I sprinkled some toasted almonds over the glaze. Huge hit!
This was scrumptious. I used it on a Vanilla pound cake and it was beautiful as well as delicious! Thanks for a great and very easy recipe.

Following in the footsteps of previous Cartoon Forum successes such as Peppa Pig, Charlie & Lola and Sarah & Duck, these new CelAction2D projects represent the best of European talent, and also demonstrate the confidence in the 2D market.
"This is an unprecedented achievement for us", said Andy Blazdell, CEO of CelAction, developer of CelAction2D. "We've never had so many shows presented in one year before at Cartoon Forum, and it underlines our growing presence on the worldwide stage."
One of the firm favorites for this year's Cartoon Forum is Fingers McGraw, from Tiger Aspect Productions, a 26 x 22 minute series for the 6+ market.
It's a fast-paced and funny Cops-and-Robbers show that's already got everybody talking. The Tiger Aspect team worked closely with CelAction to develop a unique look that can be animated quickly and efficiently to get the best results.
"The new features we have put in to CelAction2D over the past couple of years are making a huge difference," added Andy. "We're redefining the total cost of production of 2D animation to give higher quality for lower prices. Studios all over the world are re-evaluating their existing pipelines and looking to our model."

A vapor retarder that changes permeability with changing relative humidity provides added protection against moisture problems in exterior walls.
In cold climates such as Wisconsin's, the common practice of installing vapor retarders on the room side of wall insulation reflects the reality that indoor air humidity is higher than outdoor air humidity for much of the year. In this case, kraft paper or polyethylene vapor retarders restrict the diffusion of water vapor from household moisture sources into wall cavities. However, even if cold-climate building assemblies tend to dry to the outside, there are often times when there is a potential for drying to both the outside and the inside. In the case of a 2 x 4 bottom plate that is saturated due to a water leak, an interior vapor retarder eliminates the possibility of significant drying to the inside. All else being equal, that bottom plate will stay wetter longer if it can dry only to the outside than it will if it can dry to both the outside and the inside. In addition, there can be instances where there is a potential for building assemblies to dry to the inside but no potential for drying to the outside. Even cold climates have sunny and humid afternoons when the outside environment acts ...

Bucs' Smith named A-Sun Player of the Week
Tuesday, December 28, 2010
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Dec. 28, 2010) - ETSU's Mike Smith (Vandalia, Mo.) seemed to thrive in the warm weather of Cancun, Mexico, and the senior guard's play during the Cancun Governor's Cup has earned him the program's first Atlantic Sun Player of the Week honor for 2010-11, as announced by the league office on Tuesday.
Smith, who was named to the event's all-tournament team, averaged a near double-double during the three games in three days, posting 14.3 points and nine rebounds per contest. He also shot 60 percent from the floor for the tournament.
The most impressive performance for Smith came in the Bucs' 79-51 win over former Southern Conference rival Appalachian State. Against the Mountaineers, Smith netted 20 points and a career high 16 rebounds.
He was joined on the all-tournament team by Colorado State's Travis Franklin, Ole Miss' Zach Graham, St. Louis' Brian Conklin, and Southern Miss' Gary Flowers.
The Bucs return to action against A-Sun foe Campbell Thursday at 7 p.m., ending what was a month-long, eight-game stretch away from the ETSU/MSHA Athletic Center. For more on ETSU men's basketball, visit ETSUBucs.com and click on the men's hoops link.

Arizona Coyotes Details
|All NHL Tickets
|See all NHL tickets
3/25/15: People can point fingers if they want to, and there is good reason to believe that the Arizona Coyotes are tanking the season - not the players, but the front office.. They traded away most of their top players at the trade deadline in return of draft picks and prospects, mostly. They have even fallen so hard that they have overtaken the hapless Edmonton Oilers for the worst record in the Western Conference and second worst in the league (other than Buffalo). But that is alright. There are two major talents in the upcoming draft and the team with the worst record is guaranteed at least one of the first two picks.
3/18/15: If nothing else, the Arizona Coyotes have been able to gain ground on the Edmonton Oilers for the worst record in the Western Conference (though it does not look like anyone can catch Buffalo). This is important as it does have draft pick implications, and this year's draft expects to have two major franchise prospects waiting to see what teams they will join. The Coyotes have an interesting home stand this week and a great chance to see some of the better teams in the NHL. They host Colorado on Thursday, Pittsburgh on Saturday, and Vancouver on Sunday.
3/11/15: The Arizona Coyotes lost 10 games in a row, dating back to February 10, before defeating the Vancouver Canucks 3-2 last Thursday. The last couple of losses were after the trade deadline when the team traded away everyone except Shane Doan and the equipment manager. This could be considered the NHL's version of 're-tanking', which was popularized recently by the Philadelphia 76ers of the NBA. As it stands now, only Edmonton and Buffalo have worse records than the Coyotes, which puts Arizona in contention for the 'McEichlel' sweepstakes for the top two prospects in the upcoming draft.
3/4/15: The Arizona Coyotes hosted a firesale over the last week, signaling to everyone that they are in a rebuilding mode and everything must go. The Coyotes traded backup goalie Devan Dubnyk to the Minnesota Wild two months ago and he has blossomed into a star keeper. Last week, they traded coveted defenseman Keith Yandle, Chris Summers and a fourth round pick in 2016 to the Rangers for John Moore, prospect Anthony Duclair and a first and second round pick. They also shipped out the much sought after center Antoine Vermette to the Chicago Blackhawks for prospect Klas Dahlbeck and a 2015 first round pick.
2/25/15: The NHL trade deadline is coming up next week and there are no expectations that the Arizona Coyotes are going to be active in picking up big name players in hopes of a long playoff run. No, the Coyotes will be selling this season. They have not made any real deals yet, and General Manager Don Maloney simply says that they have not been offered enough. Some of the players that may get moved are Antoine Vermette, Keith Yandle, Martin Erat and Zbynek Michalek. Arizona is likely seeking draft picks and young prospects that they can build a team around. And maybe a new goalie for the future.
2/18/15: It is usually a bad sign when terms like 'financial review' and 'audit' are being used. Yet, that is happening with the Coyotes these days. The city of Glendale has hired former Anaheim Ducks president Tony Tavares to audit the Arizona Coyotes financial reports to ensure that they are getting their fair cut of the revenue. This process was actually supposed to begin some five months ago, but was, of course delayed. The review will also determine the team's profitability or loss. The current owners of the team have the right to move if they lose $50 million or more in their five years.
2/11/15: While the season may have ended a long time ago for the Arizona Coyotes, they are still worth watching. The team has the talent to beat any team in the NHL on any given night, and they still have a lot of games left against Western Conference rivals. That means that they could still play an intriguing part in how the playoffs shape up. Ironically, the Coyotes and cellar-dwelling Oilers have nearly identical goal differentials (albeit at -52), but the Coyotes have won five more games. The Yotes are home this weekend to host the San Jose Sharks on Friday and the New York Rangers on Saturday.
2/5/15: The word out of the desert is that the Coyotes are taking a step back. To be fair, that step was already taken and is demonstrated by the second lowest standing in the Western Conference. It is just now that the team is doing something about that. That generally means that Arizona will be sellers this season and almost everyone is on the trading block. That includes some of their better talent like Keith Yandel, Antoine Vermette and Oliver Ekman-Larson. OEL is unlikely to be traded, but could be for the right price. Really, the only player who is safe is the franchise face, Shane Doan.
1/28/15: OK, so this is from the minor league ranks, but deserves to be mentioned. Coyotes prospect Max Domi may have scored the goal of the season last week in what the press is calling the Alley-Oop goal. The puck was shot down the ice with Domi following and the goalie charging at him. Domi flipped the puck over the goalie, moved around him, then batted it into the net in mid-air. Simply amazing. He is the Coyotes top prospect and son of former NHL enforcer Ty Domi. Cannot wait to see him up in the NHL, and that day is coming soon.
1/21/15: Things certainly have not gone as planned in the desert this season as the Coyotes have struggled as much as almost anyone in the league. Goaltender Mike Smith is supposed to be their ace in the hole, but he has simply not been his all-star self over the first three months. Backup Devan Dubnyk had been getting more starts, but the team recommitted themselves to Smith by dealing Dubnyk to the goaltending-deprived Minnesota Wild. When he is on his game, Smith can steal games and is one of the best. The Coyotes are gambling that he will return to form in the near future and help the team more than he has.
1/14/15: Things may be getting interesting in the desert as there have been some rumors that captain and face of the franchise Shane Doan is not getting along to well with management and has even provided a list of five teams that he would waive his no-trade clause for. The team itself insists that Doan is not about to be traded and even mocked the rumors by comparing them to the Easter Bunny. At the same time, the Coyotes are not the most stable of teams, have been sold twice in 18 months and are constantly part of speculation of a move. Doan has been a great ambassador for the team and has earned a trade out if he really wants one.
1/7/15: While the rest of the NHL returns to life as usual, nothing of the sort can be said for the Arizona Coyotes. It was not that long ago that no one wanted to own the team, so the NHL took it over. The league sold it to IceArizona 18 months ago and now they are selling the team to Andrew Barroway. The NHL Board of Governors approved the sale last week. Barroway is an investor by trade, leading to speculation that he will 'flip' the team to make a profit. He denies that charge. That is also set against the background of a possible team in Las Vegas. With so many distractions, it is easy to see why the Coyotes are struggling this season.
12/3/14: The Coyotes return to prominence in the Western Conference has not come yet so far this year. Arizona sits second to last in the West (better than only Edmonton) with a 9-12-3 record through November. That includes a five game home losing streak. There is always speculation about the team relocating and management seems to want to win in Arizona rather than move. But again, those wins are coming few and far between these days. They do have an exciting home stand this week when they host the Kings (Thursday), the Bruins (Saturday) and the Predators (following Thursday).
11/19/14: The Arizona Coyotes need help scoring goals this season. They rank second to last in the Western Conference with 40 total goals (ahead of only the Winnipeg Jets) equaling only 2.5 per game. They had the chance to keep forward Radim Vrbata without giving him a raise - simply the same contract as he had for another four years. Vrbata wanted to stay but the Coyotes let him walk. He signed a two year deal in Vancouver for $10 million. Meanwhile, he has six goals and 13 points in 15 games with the Canucks, so he is on pace to score over 30 again this season.
11/12/14: The Arizona Coyotes seem to be on the losing end of most of their games, but in fact are 6-6-1. Unfortunately for the Coyotes, playing .500 gets you second to last place in the Pacific Division. However, they earned a huge win last week by taking down the powerful Anaheim Ducks 3-2 in a shootout. Goalie Mike Smith seems like he is back to vintage form as the Coyotes have now won three straight games. Additionally, the power play is showing some teeth as it was the sixth consecutive game that they have scored a goal with the man advantage.
11/5/14: It was a foregone conclusion that the Coyotes were going to have trouble scoring goals this season, and that has come to be true. Through their first nine games, which finds the team at the bottom of the Pacific Division with seven points, the Coyotes have only netted 22 goals, or just better than two a game. Meanwhile, they have surrendered 34 markers, or almost four per game. Part of it is goalie Mike Smith, who seems a bit off this season, but he does not have the lock-down defense that he enjoyed in years' past. It is a bit of a transition year for Arizona, whose best days are still ahead of them.
10/29/14: There are a lot of questions surrounding the Arizona Coyotes this season. If they were in the Eastern Conference, then they would probably be a playoff team. Unfortunately, Phoenix (or Glendale) is in the western portion of the U.S., so they must compete in the hyper-competitive Western Conference. But goalie Mike Smith is the kind of elite goalie that that can keep them competitive. However, he has not played well this season. Consider that an abnormality, as he will pick up his game soon. It is better to get the bad games out of the way and play great the rest of the year.
10/22/14: The Arizona Coyotes answered the question of how they will score goals last week, if only for a night. The Coyotes put up a touchdown on the winless Edmonton Oilers, winning 7-4. Mikkel Boedeker earned his first career hat trick in the game, earning a shower of fedoras and ten-gallon hats (OK, that part may have been made up). The win was the Coyotes second in a row and gets them ready for a great week of hockey. Arizona is at Minnesota on Thursday, then comes home to host the Florida Panthers on Saturday, then off to Tampa to take on the Lightning on Tuesday.
10/15/14: Arizona opened the season with a disappointing 6-2 loss to the Winnipeg Jets, but the team may have other distractions right now. It was announced that IceArizona, the owner of the Coyotes, plans to sell 51% of the team to Andrew Barroway. Barroway recently tried to buy the Islanders from Charles Wang, but that deal fell through. The sale leads open the speculation that the Coyotes are looking to move, possibly to Portland, Seattle, Kansas City or even Quebec or Toronto. Everyone is saying that the team is not going anywhere, but speculation will grow for quite some time.
10/8/14: It was not that long ago when it seemed like no one wanted to own the Arizona Coyotes. Now, it seems, they are in fashion. IceArizona currently owns the team under the brand of Renaissance Sports and Entertainment. They purchased the team a year ago from the NHL. Andrew Barroway is reportedly trying to buy 51% of the team. Barroway tried to buy the New York Islanders, but that fell through. Barroway is also suing Charles Wang for backing out of the Islanders deal, and that lawsuit may have to be dropped if Barroway gets his ownership stake.
10/1/14: Here we go again, Coyotes fans. While the team is preparing for the 2014-15 season, there is another potential distraction about the future of the franchise. This time, it is not out of Las Vegas or Seattle or Portland, Oregon. It is from Quebec. The Coyotes as an organization are on relatively thin ice (no pun intended) in regards to their future in the greater Phoenix area. The Quebec government is considering adding a financial component to lure a team to the area. Unfortunately for Coyotes fans and players, any time there is discussion of a new NHL location, the team is quickly linked. But fear not, at least for now. The team does have some talent, which should get some wins, and hopefully fill the arena, and keep the team where they are.
9/24/14: Wow! Some refreshingly honest opinions given by the Coyotes last week. Arizona General Manager Don Maloney flat out said that the Coyotes number one line does not match up with the number one lines of the elite Western Conference teams. But that does not discourage him. He believes that he has a strong defense and goaltending - and that his second, third and fourth lines are pretty good. He admits that they will have to find a way to score, but is optimistic that they can be competitive by playing a defensive style of hockey this season.
9/17/14: Goaltender Devan Dubnyk is not likely to take the starting job from chief goalie Mike Smith any time soon. Smith is a bonafide winner and deserves the lion's share, while Dubnyk has struggled (albeit on bad teams). But Dubnyk may have the edge in one important field. His new goalie mask is outstanding. It features a Coyotes logo, a memorial to his mother and not one, but two giraffes. It is actually a spectacular piece of artwork, and should look great for the TV cameras. Even if the Coyotes cannot win, they will still continue to look good.
8/28/14: The Coyotes are working their way back to both financial and performance respectability, but still have a long way to go. Unfortunately, as long as attendance sags and revenues are relatively low, there will always be speculation that the team will relocate. Not helping matters is a report earlier in the week claiming that the NHL would add up to four new teams - though multiple league sources have giving those rumors the ACL Ice Bucket Challenge. Still, both Seattle and Las Vegas were mentioned, and that means that either could be in play if the Coyotes relocate again - their first relocation was in the mid-90's from Winnipeg to Arizona.
8/21/14: While NHL hockey in the middle of the Arizona desert may still seem odd after 15 or so years, it also makes sense because Phoenix is a major metropolitan area and there are a lot of northerners retired there. Of course, the team has struggled financially, and that may only improve when the team does. The Coyotes did announce a new naming rights deal though. Say goodbye to Jobing.com Arena and hello to Gila River Arena. It is believed to be the first arena/stadium naming rights deal for a federally recognized Native American organization, which is ground breaking in its own right.
8/14/14: This needs to be a bounce back year for goalie Mike Smith. The Coyotes showed their commitment to him by signing him to a six year deal worth $34 million a year ago. Year one of the contract was not up to Smith's past standards. If Smith had been at 2011-12 pace, then maybe the Coyotes would have made the playoffs. To be fair, Smith was not outstanding in the shortened 2012 season either, so there is concern that his big contract is really based on one great year. Of course, Smith can silence all his critics with a strong season this year.
8/7/14: The Coyotes may bring unrestricted free agent Jeff Halpern back next season, but no one really knows. He is 38 years old and can certainly help a team, but many developing organizations would prefer to develop youth. What was extraordinary was Halpern's approach to free agency. As a older guy that still wants to play, he says he is waiting for a call and offer - then will offer to play for less. That is a tremendously rare attitude for a player, much less one with as much experience as Halpern has. It is also refreshing, because you know the guy simply wants to play rather than get paid.
7/31/14: Sam Gagner, among others, were supposed to be the future for the Edmonton Oilers when they announced and started their rebuild some five years ago. Fast forward to today and not one of those players from 2009 are on the Edmonton roster. Gagner has struggled, along with all of the Oilers, over the past two seasons. The Coyotes acquired him recently in a three team trade. Arizona is banking on the fact that Gagner has legitimate NHL talent paired with the hope that a change of scenery and new system will allow him to bounce back to his previous level.

Arizona is banking on the fact that Gagner has legitimate NHL talent paired with the hope that a change of scenery and new system will allow him to bounce back to his previous level.
7/24/14: The Arizona Coyotes are in the midst of revamping their roster and one player who may get a chance next season is first round draft pick Brendan Perlini. The team and player came to an agreement on a three year entry level deal last week, so he should be at training camp with a chance to make the team. Perlini is 18 years old and spent last season with Niagara of the Ontario Hockey League. He tallied 71 points in just 58 games. He is a big forward that can score, something that is always coveted in the NHL.
7/17/14: Arizona added some smarts and experience to their front office last week by hiring Darcy Rieger. Rieger was fired from the Buffalo Sabres last year after serving as their General Manager for 16 largely successful years. But the Sabres were awful in the 2013-14 season, so ownership cleaned house. Rieger replaces Brad Treliving as the Senior Vice President and Assistant General Manager. Treliving, of course, left the Coyotes because he was hired to be the new GM of the Calgary Flames, replacing the ousted Jay Feester. Rieger will be tasked with helping the Coyotes develop into a contender in the West.
7/10/14: The Coyotes are taking a gamble on forward Sam Gagner, hoping that his offensive skills translate into goals, assists, and most importantly, wins for the team. Gagner had been with Edmonton, where he was often criticized and dangled as trade bait. They shipped him to the Tampa Bay Lightning last week. Two hours later, the Lightning traded him to the Coyotes. There may be an offensive void to fill in the desert as the team let forward Radim Vrbata walk in free agency and used a compliance buy-out on Mike Ribiero. It is a good opportunity for Gagner, just 24 years old, to prove his critics wrong.
7/3/14: Pheonix, oops, Arizona has a solid team, but right now is not strong enough to make it into the playoffs in the Western Conference. The Coyotes have missed the playoffs for the past two seasons and it looks like the new ownership and management has seen enough from the current roster. So much so that they are letting it be known that they may not resign any of their unrestricted free agents, and that includes forward Radim Vrbata. It sounds like a combination of cost cutting and sending a message to other players to get better or get out.

Step 1: Disassemble the battery pack
Lots of good info/experience here. Ultimately, the fix for a "dead" NiCad seems to be the following gradation/choices: 1) Try the voltage ZAP with a larger voltage to "melt" the crystallization. Works for awhile. 2) Disassemble, test and replace the faulty cells in the pack, either with new NiCads or NiMHDs. 3) Try to make up a new battery pack with LiIons. This means balancing the cells, finding a new way to charge them and being really careful in soldering them in series in groups. Or 4) see new DiY Instructable for an Adapter for your NiCad tool. This one is for B&D Firestorm tool 18V sliding batteries, but could be adapted (adapt the adapter?) for your Dewlt or Sears, or... to run on Ryobi batteries...
.Look for "Black and Decker Adapter for Ryobi Battery"
which material it have
li-ions are a whole new ballgame. they have a circuit board inside that makes them a brick if they are run down to far.. I been working with some for a few days and they don't want to fix. they are DEAD and don't want to be nothing else but dead..
Just a note to let you know I have added this to the collection: Cordless-Drill-Battery-Maintenance !
>> http://www.instructables.com/id/Cordless-Drill-Battery-Maintenance/
Take a look at a bunch of different/similar approaches to this project.
Well this is a good "smack it a good one" story;
I have a multi-rotor that I crashed hard into a tree, wall, car and fence. Only my second RC flight, ever. The quad copter then would only give an error message via led's and would not work, I was devastated because I was out $600.00 + I had saved hard for--took me a year. The LED code said "call the company" RIGHT its in China and I gave up after several days of no answer and multiple attempts to decipher Cinglish instructions. After two days of internet searching I found a forum post buried on page 100K of a Google search and it said a company rep for this quad copter advised him (the forum poster) on the same problem recommending the following fix: Remove the "brain" (a DJI NAZA V-2 in this case) and hold it in your right hand about 7" above a ceramic counter top with the writing on top, then rap it moderately hard on the counter top .
I was reluctant but desperate so I tried it. To my total amazement it not only fixed it but it flew better than ever after this "smack it a good one" fix.
I'm a bit skeptical but there is an easier way than doing this and doesn't cost anything . batteries built up with crystal like particles (best way I can explain it ) that makes your NiCad batteries lose capacity over time . I've come across a way try and zap them with a battery charger without taking them apart or buying new batteries . I zapped a couple batteries I've had since buying a 4 piece set in the 1990's 18 volt Dewalt .Checking now to see how long it will last just in a dewalt radio . Will post results later as I'm experimenting now .
The one thing I took away from this, that i will be grateful for as long as I can remember, is the Soldering Video. That little trick/tip is going into the printed long-term storage
The new transformer is a Honeywell 120/208/240V, 60 cy, primary to 24 VAC 40VA secondary. I am sure the 40 VA would take some time to charge a 18 volt drill motor battery. All of the instructavles I have read deal strictly with batteries. None mentions the care and feeding of the chargers. Care to share any helpful hints?
I am not a professional so I needed someone with brains to clarify my idea.
Unless you're putting dozens of those cells in parrallel, 40VA is gonna DESTROY them.
I'll give you a summery of my research and calculations, as best I can.
Bear in mind, my power supply is going to be a 30 volt HP printer power-brick.
That brought my current limiting resistor VERY low ohmage, and wattage. 10 Ohm, and 1/4 watt.
Now, since you're starting with 40 volt...
The charging voltage is going to be approximately 1.4 v per cell.
You have what, 15 cells? (15 x 1.2 vdc nominal = 18 vdc)
So you need 1.4 x 15 = 21 vdc to charge.
24 v (supply voltage) - 21 vdc = 3 vdc voltage drop across the resistor.
Your cells are probably 2.5 Ahr. You need to charge C/10 , or 0.25amps.
R = E/I = 3 v / 0.25 = 12 ohms.
3 v / 12 ohms = 0.25 A
3 v x .25 A = 0.75 watts
I would upgrade to a 1w or eve a 10w resistor. they're only a dollar, and the added safety is worth it, imho.
You'll have to check VERY carefully. but if all the packs are NiCd, then 12-14 hours with the charger, and resistor described should give you a full charge. It should also be safe if you forget and leave it on a little too long. NiCd can survive almost indefinite charging at 1/10C rate. The extra energy gets converted to heat, and exits the battery through the cell wall.
Bear in mind, quick chargers like my original, have very sophisticated circuitry... but mine charged at almost 1C. it did shut off after that though, as a safety feature. Charge at 1C for 10 hours, and you better have the fire-department on speed-dial, cause around hour 3, it's gonna go Fwoosch!
Consider some googleing on "homemade NiCd chargers.
Tons of info is to be had at RC groups. they use packs much like these to fly their planes(though they're starting to switch over to li-po and li-fe)
Doh, just forgot.. you'll have to measure the ACTUAL voltage, under load, because you're gonna get a voltage drop over the rectifier. You're going to have to recalculate using the lower, measured voltage.
I certainly appreciate your rapid reply.
I am not that much into electronics, and had to re-read your reply several times to boil it down to my level. I am more mechanical and my dabbling into electronics is fixing things broken. Determine what is bad, cut out the old and replace it with a like item. Your reply was a real insight in how to determine (calculate) the needed resistor.
An amazing bit of info can be had on these new-fangled gadgets (computers) if a person knows where to look for it. I wish computers had been available when I was young. I pre-date Television!!
Correct me if I am wrong, but this is what I determined from your reply.
18 volt batteries have 15 1.2 volt cells.
To charge these cells will require 21 volts @ .25 Amps for 12 to 14 hours for a full charge.
To drop the 24 volt output from the transformer, after it has gone thru the rectifier, will require a 12 ohm 1 watt (or better yet a 10 watt) resistor.
Now if I can just figure out the 40VA output of the transformer...Many years ago I have read how the VA is calculated, but it escapes me now.
I REALLY appreciate your thorough explanation of my question.
Have a GREAT DAY, WEEK, and YEAR
Just happens, I post-date color TV.
Though i do remember, vividly, when the Internet switched and we all started using the WOrldWideWeb.
When I started, we Gophered instead of Googled.
If, and that's a pretty big IF, i got my numbers right then...
12 ohm, 1Watt(or higher) resistor should take your power supply, and turn it into a very crude 1/10C "slow charger" for your 18V battery packs.
Pardon me while I plagiarize.
The only difference between W and VA is the power factor. The power factor, unless known, is an approximation. For purposes of our calculations, we use a power factor of .85. The VA value is always higher than the value for W.
W to VA W / .85 = SAME VALUE EXPRESSED IN VA
that's AFTER the transformer is rectified.
I actually have absolutely NO idea what'd happen if you fed the unrectified AC into the battery(though I have a pretty good guess, and it involves letting out a lot of magic smoke. You know, the stuff that makes electronics work until you let it out?)
I've taken apart my Makita 18v Cordless drill 2.6ah NiMH battery because it would not charge (flashing red and green). I've tested all the cells and they all read 1.34v so i'm thinking its one of the three components that is stopping the battery from charging (see image). It was hard work getting the cells out of the case and i think this may be an indication that the battery may have been over heated at some point. The charger is working fine with my other battery although that battery is also starting to loose power quickly.
Does anyone know what each of these components do and how I can replace \ bypass one or all three to get the battery to charge again?
Info: the red component was glued to the top of one of the other cells in the pack.
rectangular Klixon component is just a fuse,
The red component is a thermal cut-out\reducer switch used for reducing the power input when on the charger if overheating occurs,
The yellow component is a thermal cut-out\reducer switch used for reducing the power output when on the battery is in the drill but overheating occurs due to heavy usage.
All components worked on this battery, so i guess the batteries can no longer hold a charge.
Hope this info helps some one.
No need to warm batteries up anymore with Li-ion
I thought I was the only Mcgiver left but I see not. When I was a child, my Dad and mom called me "screwdriver fingers" due to the fact that I had to tear something open and see how it worked; even though not broken I just could not resist
I did the battery thing about tens years ago when I discovered the "C" batterers matched my flashlight. Aside from all the data and info in above links, if you can imagine and interpolate you can do this in about most everything
Thank God, Men are still men
Take your two packs, and rebuild one good one out of them.
With the now empty battery case, rebuild it will ALL fresh cells.
That should get you the best bang for your buck/euro/pound.
Keep any extra good cells for when, not if, WHEN, your newly repaired pack
kills another of it's cells. When you run out of THOSE spare cells... recycle all the old cells, and rebuild with new tabbed cells for what is now the third lease on life for that battery pack :-)
Now, we're 10-15 years into the future of your tool, and it's probably worn out. Time for a new cold-fusion powered drill.
As for buying the new tabbed battery cells... don't we all buy them from the same Chinese manufacturers?
Check the image in step three.
If the battery is freshly charged, that "light bulb load" is pretty important.
It helps bleed off the "surface charge" on the cells, and gives you a "working voltage" to measure.
Test the cell voltage after 2-3 min of running the light.
If you're "lucky" like I am...
I ran my batteries in a sawsall, till it quit sawing.
hen took apart the packs that weren't performing(one lasted less than 3 min of sawing)
When i took apart my Bosch 24V pack, most of the cells tested fine with the volt meter.
FIVE of them tested ZERO volts.
Guess which cells were bad? ;-)
This only really works if its a few bad cells, and you run the battery to "dead".
The down side is, if a cell is only starting to die, this may not catch it.
I'm also working on my two Milwaukee 18V "Power-Plus" batts. Using the same trick, one seems now to be the usable battery for the drill I had loved--the drill turns solidly again! The other batt may be too far gone. It did go from 0V to ~3.2V, though. The charger doesn't accept it yet. I'm nowhere near ending the fight for it: I'll cut it open and go NiMH, if necessary.
Big box HW stores want $70-$80+ for such Milwaukee 18V batteries: Well, I then knew that the expensive drill screw wished to turn into myself! Amazon was somewhat more reasonable: $50+, yet, I haven't checked lately. Thus, I haven't used my originally priced $200+ drill for a couple of years. I was about to give up and purchase Skil or B&D--or even cheapo HFT or Big Lots!
(These Milwaukee batteries don't use the familiar vertical post most drill batts often use. Three side-shielded terminals "slide" horizontally into the drill bottom or the charger. As for checking such unmarked terminals for polarity, use a voltmeter to find the terminals which give a positive voltage reading--perhaps after charging. For this Milwaukee 18V "Power Plus" ni-cad battery, apparently the terminal on the far left (terminal side up and terminals facing you) is neg (-)--the one directly next to it, on the right, is the positive terminal (+).)
Thanks for the great inputs here!
I wasn't too concerned since this whole lot was FREE but after reading this I simply tried cleaning the metal contacts with rubbing alcohol and lightly wacking the bottom of the battery with the rubber handle of a hammer and POOF it started working again and holds a charge.
Thanks again for the great advice! =)
Thanks a lot guys,
God bless

Chalet du Bois is situated on the nursery slopes in the centre of Morzine. The design brief was very simple: 'a picture postcard, chocolate box mountain retreat'. We sought to fuse traditional Alpine decor with contemporary design; and so to the original timber panelled walls, log stove and weathered oak floors, has been added a cool veneer that includes smart en suite bathrooms and wide-screen home cinema. The staple diet of the modern day skier has not been forgotten, with a basement sauna for apres-ski relaxation and an outside hot tub into which you can tumble from the piste. The chalet also has a large family suite with private lounge; perfect for a little privacy and seclusion.A completely unique position on the piste, next to the lifts and a 2 minute walk across the nursery slopes to the village centre.

Query within a query?
Hello, I have a very quick question. I have written a while loop and have found myself producing two additional queries within the loop of the query. Is this bad practice?
Thank you.

Its really bad practice.
Writing a query within a loop results in querying n times where n is governed by the size of the loop. With a query that returns a resultset of 50 and a loop that queries twice more is a minimum of 100 + 1 queries per load.
DBMS can be locked down to a maximum number of queries (per hour I believe). Say its locked down to 20,000 per hour, that means you can only execute the script 200 times before you cannot query any more for the remaining hour. It doesn't take long to run through 200 executions.
It will also be slowish. Since you need to keep going back to the dbms for more information you are shuffling an external connection for each one of these resultsets.
Change your query to a join and that problem will go from 101 queries to 1.

I have one scenario though, which I'm stuck on then. I have 'table_a' which contains a number of entries and a column called 'id' and another column called 'is_set' which contains a value of 0 or 1.
I wish to find all the Id's in 'table_a' which have a value in 'is_set' of 1
Then UPDATE a different table 'table_b' which also has the columns 'id' and 'is_set' finding each of the entries where table_a.id = table_b.id
So best way I can think of doing this would be in a loop, which is why I asked the question. Is there therefore. Better way of handing this?
Thank you

that can be done by a simple join.
Code:SELECT -- fields here FROM table_a JOIN table_b USING (id) WHERE table_a.is_set = 1;
