Wrote an article about the 5 players Ozzie and Co. could pick. What says you? Let me know if you think any of these guys are viable options.
I wouldn't take any of those guys at 32. All of them are candidates for a trade back option that Ozzie is famous for doing. Matt Elam is a possibility, the rest are early 2nd round prospects to me.
I'd take Elam or Minter at 32...unless you can trade back just a couple spots, you run the risk of losing those guys.
Te'o...look, if we take him, I'll have guarded optimism. But as it stands now, I don't really want to take him. Just seems to have that overhyped sense. Maybe I'm wrong, but I'd feel much better about taking Ogletree, Minter than Te'o.
Haven't heard much about Robert Woods.
John Jenkins sounds like the second coming of Mount Cody. Do we really want to try that again?
Jenkins scares me as well... If he falls to us in the 2nd round, grab him!
Elam's a definite possibility at 32. He seems to be continually underrated and is better at coverage than people expect. Minter and Te'o are definite possibilities. I like Woods a lot. But not at 32.
Don't be surprised if this thread gets moved to the "draft room".
#1 - I think Matt Elam is the only guy you have listed who is a legitimate 1st rounder. The rest of the guys are kind of fringe players with questions surround their athletic ceiling. However, there is definitely some good tape on Te'o, Minter, and Robert Woods.
#2 - Maybe it's just me...but IIRC, Ozzie has only drafted 2 Pac-10/Pac-12 receiver (Devard Darling and Demetrius Williams). I don't know why, but when it comes to receivers Ozzie doesn't seem interested in PAC guys. I'm sure that's just me drawing unsubstantiated conclusions, but it is well known that Ozzie likes him some SEC guys.
However, I do agree with you that a round 1 receiver is not completely outlandish and an absolute possibility. Like I've said in other threads: The Ravens could be looking at the 6th or 7th best defensive lineman...or the 2nd best receiver. What has more value?
My personal order of WR preference would be:
1) Austin
2) Hopkins
3) Swope
4) Hunter
5) Rogers
Obviously some of those guys are potential 1st rounders. I doubt we go WR in rd 1...but who knows.

Within the banks of memory hold,
stored I some things I never told.
Inspired by thoughts heart's chambers keep.
All that I hoard in dormant sleep.
For only echoes of optimistic dreams,
can touch the surface or know what I mean.
As in quiet reflection by sea I sit,
where swallows swarm, and waters swish.
To take command of secret kept,
where chanted words overseas are swept.
Even darkened night, gloom grey sky.
Will be witness to the memory, deep and cry.
For they are the one's who will hear the pain,
as I open my heart and clear my brain.
There is no one with whom I can or will share
What ails my solitude, I bear.
I sit at the sea and release now a sigh,
and I watch the waters rise in rage and high.
Effectively they will take my memory to pastures new.
The soul of my memory, no longer blue
Will seek destination in the place where I
Look on as this memory now will die!

In such circumstances, when protest turns to obstruction it is a matter that should worry all of us, not just Special Branch. It is from such roots that the violence of intolerance has always grown as minorities feel oppressed. But, in democracies, minorities have to depend upon the persuasion of argument or accept they remain minorities. It may be a weakness of democracy but the alternatives are dictatorship or anarchic protest, both of which are fascist in tendency.
The green revolution is, happily, slowly winning the argument. If the pace is not quick enough or the case not strong enough, the broad banner of international environmental concern will not be helped by obstructive physical intervention. And there certainly remain ways for both minority and majority opinion to move decision-making minds between elections through the legitimate protest of persuasion based on informed opinion.

Poland Can't Let Inflation Slow Below 1.5%, Hausner Says
Poland's central bank will probably cut rates for a third month in January as a "deep" economic slowdown threatens to push the inflation rate below the bank's tolerance limit, policy maker Jerzy Hausner said.
"We have sent a clear signal that the December cut wasn't the last one and, based on the discussion at the meeting, the next cut in January can't be ruled out," Hausner said in an interview in Warsaw yesterday. "If we were to pause the easing cycle, we would have signaled that."
The central bank, which cut borrowing costs for a second month in December, was the only one in the European Union to raise rates this year as inflation exceeded its target of 2.5 percent for two years. Since May, economic growth slowed to a three-year low, while inflation returned to within the bank's tolerance range of between 1.5 percent and 3.5 percent.
Price growth will slow "quite significantly and in a sustainable way" to the target, "pointing to the probability of further reductions" in rates, Governor Marek Belka said on Dec. 11. Another central banker, Anna Zielinska-Glebocka, said the same day on TVN CNBC that the main rate should be cut by another half a percentage point from 4.25 percent before a pause to assess the situation.
Key Forecasts
The zloty traded at 4.0937 per euro at 3:15 p.m. in Warsaw, down 0.1 percent from yesterday. The zloty has gained 9 percent this year, the second-best performance among major emerging- market currencies tracked by Bloomberg. The yield on two-year zloty-denominated government bonds rose five basis points to 3.3 percent.
Hausner, who refused to comment on the scope for monetary easing, said the bank's next inflation and growth forecast in March will be key. "It will show the impact of current monetary easing on consumer-price growth in the next two years," he said.
Consumer prices rose an annual 2.8 percent in November, the Central Statistical Office reported in Warsaw. That was below the 2.9 percent median forecast in a Bloomberg survey of 32 economists. Inflation was at 3.4 percent in October, when it slowed below the upper end of the central bank's tolerance range for the first time in almost two years.
"Inflation will stay on a downward trend, slowing to the target at the start of 2013," Piotr Lysienia, an economist at Bank Pocztowy in Warsaw, said by e-mail. "A further slowdown in consumer prices, especially in view of a weakening economy and a difficult situation on the labor market, will increase the chances for continuing monetary easing also after January."
Latest Forecasts
The central bank's last projections in November, when it cut the benchmark for the first time since 2009, showed the expansion will ease to 1.5 percent next year, the least since 2002 and down from 4.3 percent in 2011. In mid-2014 inflation will slow below 1 percent, the lowest since the start of 2006, according to the forecast.
"The economic slowdown is so deep that inflation in 2014 is likely to slow below the lower end of our target range and we have to counteract that," Hausner said. "I'm afraid our economy won't return to fast growth and it will drift instead."
Hausner, who was among eight Monetary Policy Council members to back the May rate increase, reiterated that the central bank's top concern is price stability. During a slowdown, the economy "shouldn't be stimulated with a monetary impulse only, as that would lead to unsustainable economic growth and expose it to more external disturbances," he said.
Cautious Policy
Even during the easing cycle, Hausner said policy will remain "moderate, cautious and keep a reasonable disparity between rates in Poland and western Europe as well as keeping positive real interest rates."
"Mistakes" in monetary policy contributed to economic growth slowing in the third quarter to 1.4 percent from a year earlier, the slowest pace since April-June in 2009, Finance Minister Jacek Rostowski said on Dec. 11. Because the central bank "corrected" its error, Rostowski said he expects more rate cuts to boost the recovery in the second half of 2013.
"The finance minister shouldn't publicly dictate decisions to policy makers," Hausner said, adding that it takes as many as eight quarters for rate reductions to have an effect on the economy.

Sandy should make landfall in NJ in a couple hours. As she nears the rain and wind will get worse. Do not let your guard down just because it hasn't yet been too bad for you. Given the position of Sandy, those along the coast have been feeling her force. Us in Central and S MD are in for it as she cuts across land into PA.
Sandy is moving very fast now, but when she comes ashore that forward movement will slow. As projected, we should be feeling the tropical storm force winds (above 39 mph) from around 6:00pm until at least 8:00am and probably longer. This will last into through Tuesday until Sandy finally makes it into central PA.
Thus far I have recorded a wind gust of 26 mph with the average wind speed in the teens. The rain total for my house thus far is 3.62". Follow me on Twitter for more frequent updates: www.twitter.com/wxmanmd and my Weather Phone is updated: 443-470-9804.

- Abstract:
- Image compression plays an important role in multimedia systems, digital systems, handheld systems and various other devices. Efficient image processing techniques are needed to make images suitable for use in embedded systems. This paper describes an implementation of a JPEG decoder in the SHIM programming language. SHIM is a software/hardware integration language whose aim is to provide communication between hardware and software while providing deterministic concurrency. The paper shows that a JPEG decoder is a good application and reasonable test case for the SHIM language and illustrates the ease with which conventional sequential decoders can be modified to achieve concurrency.

This tour was amazing!
These guys are great. They were in the water with us snorkelling and when we were on the bouncing inflatables at our beach site. They made sure we were safe. Good way to spend the day. Highly recommended.
We loved everything about our tour! We definitely plan to book through you guys again anywhere we go! Thank you so much we had a blast and was a great experience!
Kevin S USA
We were picked up on the pier at our resort, instructed on how to wear the snorkeling gear and taken to the first reef. The water was somewhat rough but once you looked into the water, the reef was full of beautiful sea life. The crew was helpful and ready to assist you even in the water. There was a photographer onboard who even went in the water to take photos of you snorkeling. That was a special memento. Then the beach party was a welcome rest from the water, the food was good and the kids played on the inflatable water toys. Then we boarded the catamaran and they dropped us off back at our resort's pier. We'd take this tour again!
It was a great time. The beach was great, wish we could have stayed longer. The water was so blue and pretty.
Claudia P USA
The trip was a lot of fun, and we greatly enjoyed the snorkeling, the music, and the food. However, the tour was delayed in leaving, so we ended up eating at about 430 pm and we got back to the ferry landing about 40 minutes late and missed the boat we needed to take back to Playa del Carmen. We had to wait two hours until the next ferry, which also happened to be last one out for the day. You may want to consider earlier tour times for this activity.
I was really disappointed with the snorkeling. Palancar reef does not have the numerous fish I was expecting. We went out on a smaller boat later in the week where there were many more fish. The "Hamburger in Paradise" was good though.
James O Canada
Tour was OK, saw some see turtles, but the coral was so far below the surface we couldn't see many fish. I also found it quite crowded in the water, you couldn't swim without kicking someone or being kicked. The beach we went to for the beach party was beautiful. Pure white sand, plenty of water activities--kayaks, water trampoline, aqua glide. In San Miguel, you can get this type of trip for less and it comes with a full Mexican buffet not just a hamburger and tiny salad bar. The guides, however, were very helpful and friendly.
The snorkelling whas kinda of like being herded like cows you all had to stay in one big pack and i ended up kicking people and getting kicked.
The beach party was okay, but mainly for kids.
I would have preferred a real sailboat that uses sail power they had sails but only used them for show - the motor was used all the time
I will try another, perhaps smaller, cruise next time.
The booze was good.
Having gone on other tours like this, I was looking forward to it. To my surprise, the crew was very unfriendly. They did not socialize or interact at all with the guests. The snorkeling sites were very restrictive and not conducive really to snorkeling as the waters were too deep. The redeeming quality was the cookout on the beach and the beach party with all of the different water toys. Following this trip, 3 out of the 4 of us who went got travelors diarrha. The only one who didn't was the one of us who drank beer and not the refreshments with ice. This pretty much ruined the rest of our stay in Cozumel. I do not recommend this trip.

Great Time Today :)
I rode Thumper bareback today, and before I got on I just walked him around a bit, asking him to walk when I walk and to stop when I stop. He's really getting the hang of it, so I put the reins over his neck and he did the same thing, without me leading with the reins! I was so happy with him- we're really starting to bond :-). He followed me around the arena for a while before I got on. I'm so happy that he's finally starting to trust me! :-)
Awesome! Sounds like you have a good thing going!
awesome! Do you know yet if you'll be leasing him next month? I really hope you two get to continue growing the bond with one another!
It's almost absolute! I'll just be part-leasing him two days a week, but he's at the barn where I take lessons so I can see him whenever :). I hope so too :)

Funny Alyson Hannigan Painting by Renoir
Member reactions:
Very nice, but her face needs to be softened a little,
Yes, eyes, nose, eyebrows and mouth need to be softened
Softened is a bit of a misnomer. Sample texturing is I think the better terms. Still, this is a legitimate impressionistic style by throwing all the finer definition into the focal subject and less on supporting elements. Nice one HH
Funny Ugly Woman Painting by Renoir
Member reactions:
Pretty cool, though you sort of turned Renoir art into Botero art
Yes. Botero influenced with a touch of Dowling, Newsey. You are observant hahahaha. I get the idea that Renoir had a taste for the Rubenesque ladies and sort of had fun with that idea, while putting a silly face on her. I am honored to capture gold with so many excellent renditions in the mix. I'm pretty impressed. Thanks Newsey, Elegary, Gummy, Andrew, and Luciano.

Funny Hanging a Goya Painting
If you are near Boston in the coming weeks, we advise you to visit the wonderful exhibition of Francisco Goya art in the Museum of Fine Arts (MFA). The exhibition features more than 160 of Goya's most significant paintings collected from different museums all over the world. While 60 of those paintings are on permanent display in the MFA, the other 120 Goya works have never been shown together before. The paintings on loan from other galleries are handled with extra care so that they are not damaged during the transportation and exhibition. Photoshop this photo of two museum employees hanging a Goya painting (The Duchess of Alba) any way you wish.
Funny Magritte Paintings
This Thursday will be the 115th birthday of Belgian surrealist painter Rene Magritte. His surrealist paintings are more than just visually impressive; they are frequently thought-provoking. His "The Treachery of Images" series of paintings shows realistically drawn objects titled "Ceci n'est pas " (French for "This is not "). His famed image of a pipe is captioned "Ceci n'est pas une pipe" ("This is not a pipe"). As Magritte himself stated: "The famous pipe. How people reproached me for it. And yet, could you stuff my pipe? No, it's just a representation, is it not? So if I had written on my picture 'This is a pipe,' I'd have been lying!" Magritte got a job designing wallpaper at a wallpaper factory, and as a sideline designed posters and advertisements. His first one-man exhibition, in 1927 in Brussels, was a flop, the art critics hating all 61 pieces shown. Magritte gained real fame in 1960 (shortly before his death in 1967) when his paintings influenced pop art and culture. To celebrate the 115th birthday of Rene Magritte, photoshop any of his paintings. Some examples are: show how he would have created his works in the modern days, what people or objects he would choose, etc. (If you use any of his nude sources, please cover the models in bikini to make them safe for work).

Translation in the EuroMed Continues in Madrid
The Anna Lindh Foundation, in partnership with Transeuropéennes, the King Abdul Aziz Foundation in Casablanca, and Casa Arabe in Madrid, initiates the "Collaborative Project for the Translation of Humanities and Social Sciences" taking place in Madrid, in the headquarters of Casa Arabe, on the 24th and 25th of June in Spain.
This pilot initiative launched in Amman in 2012 in the framework of the Mapping of translation in the Euro-Mediterranean region, is consolidated by a collective translation workshops in Madrid, bringing together French, Italian and Spanish translators. The project aims to create a permanent and independent forum for consultation, discussion and cooperation through group workshops and a digital translation platform, with the prospect of the development of translation projects in the fields of Humanities and Social Sciences at the Euro-Mediterranean level.
The workshop will focus on collecting texts written by intellectuals and young Arab researchers, about cultural, social and political dynamics in Syria, Yemen, Bahrain, Egypt, Tunisia and Libya, and about the protests in Algeria, Morocco, Jordan and the Arabian Peninsula, and will culminate in a book entitled Arab Societies, visions of the Interior, inspired by the work of the anthropologist Franck Mermier.
In 2012, the Anna Lindh Foundation and Transeuropeennes launched the very first mapping study on the current status and challenges of translation in the Mediterranean region. The Mapping publication, available in Arabic, English and French, was the result of a 2-year process.

What should we make of Airvana's (AIRV) announcement that a private equity group is buying the company for $530 million, or $7.65 a share in cash?
- With $205 million in cash and equivalents as of September, plus almost $40 million collected subsequently from Ericsson, Airvana has more cash than it needs, so this isn't a deal to bail out a struggling company. It's a deal to take out a public company, and flip it later for a premium. Of the $530 million in cash being paid to public shareholders, roughly half will be coming from the company's own balance sheet.
- According to the press release, "certain members of management of Airvana, including Randy Battat, President and CEO, and founders Vedat Eyuboglu and Sanjeev Verma, will exchange a portion of their shares for an equity interest in the acquirer." With management deciding not to cash out completely, it would appear they think there's money being left on the table.
- Timing of this deal: set to close before the end of March 2010, possibly before the December 2009 quarter is reported. The December quarter will be the first to be reported since Ericsson purchased the Northern Telecom CDMA business and paid off Aivana's $39.6M invoice (most of which will be recorded as deferred revenue), and billings that were previously deferred due to the Nortel bankruptcy are booked.
- Judging from the Q&A attached to the press release announcing the deal, where a number of posted answers oddly failed to answer the posted question, there's no indication that the company has shopped the deal, implemented a breakup fee, or signed up its major shareholders. This is not what one would expect of a solid deal intended to discourage competitive bidders. From the press release:
"Did the Special Committee consider other strategic alternatives for the Company?
The Special Committee believes that this transaction represents fair value for the Company and is in the best interest of its shareholders."
"Is there a breakup fee on this transaction?
Our SEC filings will describe all relevant terms of the transaction."
"Do you expect all of the major shareholders to vote for the transaction?
A Special Committee of our Board and our Board have recommended the transaction to our stockholders. "
Airvana's Fundamentals
Airvana sells telecom solutions that enable broadband wireless, to date in the 3G EVDO CDMA sector, but also in the emerging femtocell space. The company cratered last year when Nortel, its major OEM, filed for bankruptcy. Although the fundamentals of their business have remained intact, orders were deferred as the messy business of auctioning off the Nortel CDMA business to the winning bidder, Ericsson, took most of 2009 and only closed last month. At this point, Airvana's core EV-DO business, a cash flow positive, nicely profitable software upgrade business, is scheduled for 3 major releases in 2010. Of more interest to growth investors, its recently launched femtocells are positioned to help address the shortfall in mobile broadband capacity that is challenging major wireless incumbents, with commercial operators expected to launch in 2010. Airvana has agreements with four OEM customers to deliver UMTS femtocell product solutions and agreements with four OEM customers and one operator customer to deliver CDMA femtocell product solutions. Airvana is one of the few US femtocell suppliers.
Quotes from Airvana's Q3 press release showcase the company's turnaround prospects:
- "Looking ahead, we expect continued growth in data traffic, which is increasingly fueled by the growth of smartphones, to drive healthy demand for our EV-DO products in the fourth quarter of 2009...We expect to start shipping upgrades of our version 8.0 software in conjunction with the closing of the Ericsson/Nortel transaction, which we now expect to occur in November. As a result, we expect fourth quarter 2009 EV-DO Billings to be higher than the fourth quarter of 2008, and second half EVDO shipments to be higher than the first half of this year...We have a lot of software in the development pipeline for our EV-DO customers...We expect to deliver three major releases in 2010."
- "The femtocell's time has come...We have been awarded several commercial deployments around the world with contracts in place and purchase commitments for significant volumes in 2010 and beyond. Both our CDMA and UMTS femtocell products are in the final stages of software development and testing, with commercial production starting late this quarter and ramping in the first quarter of 2010. We expect operator launches with Airvana products, especially in North America and Asia, starting in the first half of 2010...We expect to ship limited quantities of femtocell pre-production units in the fourth quarter of 2009, and we expect femtocell products to represent less than 10% of billings for the fourth quarter of 2009 and the full year...We expect to start volume production of femtocell products in the fourth quarter of 2009 with shipments ramping significantly in 2010."
Femtocells as a solution are still relatively unknown and controversial, primarily because many people think it doesn't make sense for consumers to pay for a device that solves a carrier problem. The concept is simple: these boxes will connect to a high speed internet connection on one side, and create a small wireless cell on the other, solving the carrier problems of limited wireless bandwidth or poor coverage. The actual implementation is more complex as femtocell equipment is required not only in consumer or business premises, but also in the carrier network, and femtocells can't interfere with existing wireless networks.
Over the past few months, the hue and cry over inadequacy of existing carrier spectrum for the emerging mobile broadband world has highlighted the opportunity for femtocells. Traction to date has been limited as few 3G femtocells are in the market and carriers have not fully subsidized the device cost. If, however, broadband wireless bandwidth becomes scarce, as virtually everyone expects, carriers are likely to deploy multiple methods to service customer requirements. Of the various options, which include 4G and WiFi, femtocells are one of the most appealing due to their relatively low deployment cost and retention of the proprietary cellular link which binds the customer to the carrier.
Having said that, femtocells are ultimately more likely to be integrated with other customer premises equipment. Airvana has already started down this path, announcing femtocells products that also embed an IP router and an analog telephone adapter (which allows consumers to connect existing cordless handsets into the device and send all voice traffic -- both wireless and wired -- over an internet connection). For a wireless solutions provider that wants all the key technologies in its portfolio --WiFi, Bluetooth and femtocell -- this company has appeal. It's not difficult to envision other potential suitors for this company.

So here's the deal. I use Autosketch 9 at work for drafting, I think it sucks!! But I have no idea what else there is that doesn't cost so much or is way more than I need.
Any ideas??

Since Facebook has introduced Promoted Posts, experts claim your post will only reach 1-2% of your fans unless you want to pay big money (potentially hundreds of dollars) to "boost" your post to reach your own list. For example, our design studio list, while small, was once able to reach 2500 unique people per post. When Facebook made this policy switch and monetized their fan pages by charging for views, our reach dropped down immediately to around 200-300 people (and sometimes as low as 148) – only 8% of what it was the month before.
That means that 2300 of our Facebook fans were no longer seeing our stuff.
Frustratingly, these were the dedicated fans who actually wanted to hear from us, and our Facebook fan list was something we'd laboured to build over the course of a couple years! Perhaps you've seen the same exact same thing happen to you. A list you put time and energy (and possibly money) into that you can't even access without paying a hefty fee.
This is the problem with depending on one medium as a musician… especially a medium that you don't own or have any say over.

Last night the Quebec weatherman said that tomorrow would be sunny with no chance of rain. Well, it started raining when we went to bed and never stopped until we were just about to Vermont. That made packing up the coach quite messy and delayed us until almost 11:00am. But we did our thing and got on the road to the USA. When we reached the border we were greeted by our US Immigration Officer. I have ...

Tues Sept 29, 2015 Bus tour started with a visit to the Vermont State Capitol. We sat in the House chamber (I chose original desk 33!), stared at the portrait of George Washington at the head of the room and marveled at the history of the place.

It's actually been rather cool and rainy in San Diego. The potted plants
first tried to blow off their benches and fly, and then amused themselves by
filling up to the brim with rainwater and lolling about, sputtering and
gagging. The snails from the garden climbed partway up the stucco walls to
the house and just clung there. I think they were trying to get out of the
rain. And it wasn't a warm rain that you can work in and find rather
pleasant, it was a cold, driving rain that could turn corners and sneak
through very small gaps in your defenses. Remember Terry Jacks' s song that
said it never rained in Southern California? He obviously didn't visit here
in the early spring.
So, all of my pots have been turned onto their sides to prevent still more
rain from collecting on the soil, and I've got them wedged up with anything
handy to keep the whole lot of them from rolling off the tables and ending up
bobbing up and down in the swimming pool (which has a water level that is even
with the top of the concrete and oozes over the edge whenever the wind blows).
Most of my friends and all of my cats have a cold. We're cold, miserable and
desperately in need of something warm and cheering. Whoever has our sunshine
and "warm" please return it. Failing that, write about it!

On the heels of both "American Idol" winner Scotty McCreery and runner-up Lauren Alaina releasing their debut music videos, Pia Toscano has released hers as well. Pia's exit on the show came as a shock to many viewers, but she seems to have bounced back.
Her debut single "This Time," which dropped back on July 11, is a collaboration between Pia and Ester Dean, who has written hits for Rihanna and Nicki Minaj. The video features Pia driving a mustang, singing in a field and frolicking on a beach. What do think of it?
Following her "Idol" ouster, Pia signed a recording contract with Interscope Records, which is
headed up by "Idol" mentor Jimmy Iovine. Her as-of-yet untitled debut
album is due out later this year.

About BelmontJeff
I live in the Portland, Oregon area and have always had a fascination with weather, its extremes, & stats. I'm also in CoCoRaHS: HAPPY VALLEY 1.7 ESE.
By: BelmontJeff, 7:39 PM GMT on November 02, 2013
OCTOBER was a pleasant month, with 18 Clear days, 0 Cloudy days, and mild weather, for the most part, until near month's end. Only 2 days of AM Fog were observed 1st-18th (1 of these Heavy, Visibility <1/16 Mile); 10 more days w/ Fog occurred 19th-29th (3 being Heavy), except for the 25th.
Avg Max: 75.1°
Avg Min: 52.1°
Mean: 63.6°
Due to the many clear periods, the disparity between the Average Max. and Min. Temps. of 23.0° was, so far, greater than any other month this year, just beating out April's 22.8° difference.
The Average Max. Temp. over the first 20 days was 78.0° but only 69.6° from 21st-31st. Max. Temps. peaked on the 5th & 6th at 87.1° (2 of the 11 days in the month to reach ≥80°).
Min. Temps. differed only 14.6° from warmest to coldest readings. The Avg. Min. Temp. 1st-19th was 54.0°; from 20th-31st it was 49.1°. Following September, which had the year's warmest Avg. Min. Temp. at 57.5°, October's 52.1° was 5.4° cooler, though the Avg. Max. Temp. was only 4.1° lower (79.2° vs. 75.1°).
The sharpest day-to-day change was from the 26th-27th when the Max. Temp. went from 80.7° to 57.3°, a 23.4° drop. That Max. reading on the 27th was the Coolest since the 56.2° on Apr. 15, 2013.
PRECIPITATION: The average monthly rainfall for October is 1.34". We were far from that value this year as only 0.03" was recorded, just 2% of Normal.
The current Calendar-Year Total Rainfall also continues well below normal, now at 3.06" (Normal for the period January-October is 18.64"). At this point in the Calendar Year, this is probably the driest ever recorded.
WIND: Only 16 of the 31 days recorded peak gusts of ≥10 MPH, with 6 of these being ≥15 MPH, and 2 ≥20 MPH. Very light winds 13th-26th.

So after YEARS of complaining, tolerating, begging, ripping, sagging, adjusting and altering the horrible pants we get to wear on duty - I finally had a hand in starting a company to make pants JUST FOR US.
Her BlueWear Uniforms is the name to watch for ladies. I have tried everything and even though I didnt mind 5-11 pants, and tried the Ladies Choice by Elbeco - I found the LC pants polyester quality pilled really quick and the zipper was still to long. I actually went to a friend who started this company and it is getting off the ground as we speak! Pants will be all they make for a little while, but we have discussed a line of plain clothes for detectives to actually hold up/fit a gun on dress pants or inside a jacket for a shoulder holster...
The company will start its launch in Ohio (where I am from) first in the next few months. We are looking for AMBASSADORS to wear the pants and give us feedback as well as either blog about them or tell neighboring departments. I know they are great for patrol-wear but if your C.Os or Dispatch are uniformed they may want to try a pair of pants with a bluejeans fit.. Ambassadors get a pair of pants FREE
One Ambassador per department max.. All you need to do is send me a P.M. with your personal email and one of the staff at Her BlueWear will get in touch to send you the info. The pants are semi-custom made so you they should fit great! Get back to me soon !!

Learning About Business Locks, Safes and Keys
Unique Places To Hide Your Spare House Key Outside
If you would like to ensure that you or anyone else in your family will be able to easily get back into the house should anyone become accidentally locked out, you will want to hide one or more spare keys outside. To help you decide the best place for your spare house key, you will want to review the following suggestions. Under The Edge Of A Porch If you have a porch that is designed in a way that allows you to be able to reach up under the edge of it, this can be a great place to hide a spare key. You can use industrial tape to tape the key in place, as long as rainwater never reaches it. If you are worried that rain may occasionally blow under the porch, you can attach a small hook on the back of one of the front boards of your porch and hang the key over that. You may want to take the extra step of protecting the key from developing rust by taping a layer of packing tape around the key. Beneath The Stepping Stone Whether you have an entire patio made up of individual stepping stones or a single pathway made from them, you can use one of them to hide a spare key to the house. You may want to seal the spare key inside of a sandwich bag so that it is protected from any ground water that could cause it to become rusted over time. Once the key is protected, you can lift the stepping stone, lay the key flat underneath it, and then gently lay the stepping stone back down. If you are worried that you may end up having a hard time remembering which stepping stone is hiding the spare key, you will want to mark it so it is slightly different than the other stones. You can use a permanent marker or some nail polish to add a small mark to the corner of the stone. Under The Bird Bath If you have a bird bath in your yard, you can use industrial strength tape to attach the spare house key to the underside of the bowl. Try to position the key in a position that will make it the hardest to be seen by anyone just walking by, whether that is closest to the base or the lip of the bird bath bowl. The ideal location will depend on the individual height and style of your bird bath. With just those three suggestions in mind, you should have a much easier time coming up with the perfect location for your spare house key. For more information, visit sites like...read more
3 Tips To Save Money On Home Security
Keeping yourself, your home and your family safe is probably of the utmost importance to you. However, if you're short on funds, paying for home security can be expensive. Luckily, following these tips can help you save money while still helping you keep your home safe from potential threats. 1. Have Locks Rekeyed Instead of Replacing Them Changing your locks periodically can seem like a good idea if you want to keep your home secure. For example, you won't want to keep your keys and locks the same if a roommate has just moved out or if your keys have been lost or stolen. However, instead of automatically assuming that you'll need to replace your locks, consider contacting a locksmith and asking about having them rekeyed. This can provide the same type of security but can be less expensive than buying all new locks for your home. 2. Use Dummy Cameras Surveillance cameras can be helpful in the event that someone breaks into your home, since it can provide you with real-time footage of what happened and can be great evidence for local law enforcement. However, one of the main benefits of surveillance cameras is the fact that they can help prevent a break-in from happening in the first place. This same benefit can be enjoyed without spending the money for a set of cameras; instead, you can purchase realistic-looking dummy cameras that are less expensive but that can work well in fooling potential criminals into thinking that they are under surveillance when on your property. 3. Install Security System Signs…Instead of a Security System If you have the money to spend, installing a security system is a smart decision. However, these systems can be costly. Not only do you have to pay to install your system, but you may also have to pay a monthly monitoring fee, which can add up if you're watching your budget. Consider installing security system signs in your yard or putting them in your windows to make potential thieves think that you have a security system installed in your home. For some thieves, this might be enough to turn them away from your home and send them elsewhere. As you can see, there are ways that you can save money on home security while helping to keep your home safe for yourself and your family. Give these tips a try to stick to your budget and protect what is important to you. Contact a business, such as Billy Lee Locksmith, for more...read more
3 Surprisingly Simple Ways To Get Back In Your Car After You Have Been Locked Out
Today, modern cars have many security mechanisms, which make them difficult to get into when you have been locked out. This does not mean that it is impossible — and there are some situations where you may need to do something drastic like break a window. Unless it is an emergency, here are some things that you may want to try to get into your car before you contact the locksmith: 1. Use A Cord With A Slipknot To Unlock The Door Handles A cord, any type of cord, may due the trick when trying to get into your car. To do this, you will want to tie a slipknot on one end of the cord. Try to work the cord into the door jamb by pulling it down diagonally. Once it is inside of your car, use it to fish for the lock or door handle and pull on it to open your car. 2. Any Key May Do The Trick With Many Older Model Cars Older cars often have common types of locks. If this is the case with your car, you may want to try every key on your ring. Find a key that fits in the lock, and try to wiggle it around. Listen for sounds of clicks or movements inside the door, and when you hear a sound, try turning the key. This can often do the trick for opening older car doors, but may not work for newer cars that often have laser-cut keys and better security. 3. Slim Jims, Coat Hangers And Paper Clips To Jimmy The Locks There are also the oldest methods in the book, such as slim jims, coat hangers and paper clips. Most of these involve jamming them in the door or between the glass to activate the handle or locking mechanisms. Paper clips can be used to bend a makeshift key, which you can then use to open the door by turning the lock. With any of the objects you use against the glass, be careful not to shatter it. Using a piece of clothing as padding can help prevent accidentally shattering your car glass. These are some things that you may want to try before you contact a locksmith to get into your car. If you have an emergency, do what you need to do to get in your car, otherwise contact a locksmith to help you when all else...read more
Three Reasons Firearm Owners Should Own A Gun Safe
Whether you have guns for hunting, collecting or protecting your home, having a gun safe can offer several benefits. If you are a gun owner but you don't own a gun safe, here are just a few reasons to consider investing in a safe. Fire Protection Safes don't just protect your cash and family paperwork from damage caused by a fire; they can also protect your firearms and ammunition. This is an important consideration for anyone investing in collectible weapons or antique guns and ammunition. Look for a fire-rated safe that includes racks for rifles and shelving for handguns. If you want to store your family's valuables as well, opt for a safe with multiple shelves and storage compartments. Theft Protection While thieves may look for jewelry, cash and small electronics, firearms can be attractive options for theft during a burglary. The Bureau of Justice Statistics estimates that at least one handgun was stolen in 63 percent of home burglaries between 2005 and 2010. Keeping your weapons secured in a safe can be a great way to protect them from theft. A gun safe that is bolted to your floor can make it more difficult for would-be thieves to steal your firearms. You can also conceal the safe in your wall or closet to keep it out of sight. Safety Whether you own firearms for self-defense or for hunting, it is important to keep the guns properly stored when they are not in use. A recent study showed that 73 percent of children under the age of 10 know where their parents keep their guns, and 36 percent reported handling the weapons. Statistically, the majority of accidental deaths from firearms are either self-inflicted or are caused by another child having access to the weapons. Keeping your guns locked in a safe can prevent your children from gaining access to the weapons. If the guns in your home are for protection, opt for a biometric gun safe that only opens when you place your hand on the entry panel. This gives you fast access in an emergency while keeping your firearms out of the reach of children. Gun safes offer a variety of benefits for responsible gun owners. If you collect antique weapons, hunt or keep a firearm for safety, consider these three reasons to purchase a gun safe. If you choose to have a safe installed in your home, ask a professional like Anytime Lock & Safe to help you find the right model to fit your gun collection, your home's available space and your specific...read more
Your Vehicle's Responder Key Thwarts Theft With Unique Transmitter And Receiver Code Activity That Bars Ignition
If your car requires a transponder key to start the ignition, then you have a double security to bar thieves from activating ignition. There is a transmitter built inside your car's transponder key. Near the ignition switch of your car is a receiver. When you turn over the ignition switch, the key then transmits a signal that is very low. Only your vehicle can detect the signal, which enables the ignition switch. Only the interaction between transmitter and receiver activates the transmission to start your car. A prospective thief will move on to another vehicle with an ignition switch that can be hot-wired. Even if a thief brings along a copied key to get your ignition moving, it will be a futile task for the thief to accomplish. If the copied key is used, there won't be a positive response without the proper signal, and the proper signal can't be copied. Recognizing A Transponder Key If you're not sure if your car key operates with a transponder key, examine the key. If there's an obvious thick piece of black plastic at the top of the key, you do have a transponder key. That piece of plastic actually contains a small microchip inside it, which accounts for why it's expensive to replace. There's a high-tech electronic security system right inside that microchip that keeps your car secure. If you lose the key and must replace it, you must find an expert locksmith who is knowledgeable and has experience with transponder keys. Costlier Replacement You'll pay more to replace a transponder key than you would for an ordinary car key. Be also aware that the transponder key is not the same thing as your car remote feature. Remember that the key is a security system of its own that controls your car's transmission. A remote only controls the opening of your car door. What Else Makes The Transponder Key So Very Unique? The microchip, mentioned before, is designed with a special serial number that is preinstalled when the key is initially made. When the transponder key interacts with the receiver, the receiver proceeds to judge whether the code matches. If there's a match, your car's computer signals an unlocked status, which engages the transmission to start. All of these interactions are borne from a decidedly deceptive and complicated system. It is a dedicated system that deters intruders from illegally starting your vehicle. Cars Equipped With Transponder Keys Most cars manufactured after 1995 are reportedly fitted with transponder keys. Should you lose your key, or if it becomes broken, hire a professional car locksmith to program and effectively handle the replacement key. Understand that there are two different types of transponder keys. Your best choice is the encrypted transponder key with codes. A zero bitted transponder key can be cloned. Keep your locksmith's telephone number in your wallet at all...read more
3 Reasons To Change Your Commercial Locks Regularly
One important line of defense that keeps your business safe is your commercial locks. No matter how strong or good your locks might be, however, you have to change them regularly. These are a few reasons to hire a commercial locksmith to come out and change your locks on a regular basis. 1. Employees Come and Go Employees come and go, and some of them aren't exactly happy when they leave. Because of this, your locks could be at risk. You don't know if your employees have copies of your keys, for example, and could attempt to break in at a later date. The more frequently that you have employees quit or get fired, the more often you should change your locks. Anytime that you have a disgruntled employee, you should definitely make an effort to change the locks immediately, particularly if you know that the employee has or once had access to your keys. 2. Commercial Locks See a Lot More Wear and Tear Even though they might be stronger and more durable, commercial locks can wear out quickly due to the sheer use of your commercial doors. Plus, you have to worry about whether or not your employees are gentle with your locks when they are unlocking and locking your doors, since jamming the key into the lock or otherwise being rough with it can cause damage. Because of this, it is a good idea to change your locks regularly to ensure that they are always in good shape. 3. New Security Options Come Out All the Time Even though you might think that you have the strongest and best locks, chances are good that other options will come out that will provide better security for your business. For example, you might opt to switch to an access control system rather than having regular locks. By changing your locks regularly, you have the option to choose from the newest and best locks on the market, meaning that you can ensure that your business is always as protected as possible. As you can see, changing your commercial locks often is smart. How often you should do it is based on a few factors, but a good commercial locksmith can talk to you about the best choice for protecting your business. Contact a company, such as Suburban Lock, for more information on improving your business security and protecting your...read more
Keyless Entry Systems: Tips To Protect Your Key Fob From Hackers
If you notice strange people repeatedly riding by your home late at night or early in the morning, you may wonder if they plan to break into your home. But the people you see may have something else in mind. A number of thieves target vehicles with keyless entry systems. The thieves use cheap devices to amplify the wireless signals produced by your key fob to enter your vehicle without causing damage to its doors or windows. You can take steps to protect your vehicle from car thieves and hackers with the tips below. Inspect Your Vehicle The first thing you want to do is inspect your vehicle for strange devices. A number of car thieves place these items on the bottom frames, tires and bumpers of the vehicles they plan to steal later. The devices contain electronic parts and wireless systems that catch the first rolling code your key fob produces once you activate it. Because the thieves intercepted the first code, your key fob won't open up the vehicle right away. Instead, the key fob sends out a second code to open your car's doors. If you find a strange object on your vehicle, contact law enforcement right away. You can also take your vehicle to a professional locksmith and have them examine and remove the device. However, never attempt to remove the object on your own to avoid injuries or leave your vehicle unattended. The thieves can use the first rolling code to snatch your vehicle. Put Your Key Fob in the Fridge If you don't notice any devices on your vehicle, place your key fob in the refrigerator until a locksmith arrives to your home, or until you take your vehicle to a locksmith for services. Some savvy car thieves use remote devices that can pick up key fob signals from a distance. The devices can obtain data on your car, truck or SUV from down the street or your neighbor's property. Most electronic devices won't work when enclosed in or surrounded by metal objects, such as your refrigerator. To keep your key fob from becoming too cold or damp, you can place it in a clear plastic bag before storing it in the refrigerator. If you don't feel comfortable storing the key fob in the fridge, wrap it with aluminum foil, which is another way to block wireless signals. Once the locksmith arrives to your home, have them reprogram your key fob with a system that blocks the signals of remote hackers. Also, place a fob guard over the key fob as an added protective measure against theft. The locksmith can discuss the best ways to protect your vehicle with you. For more information, contact a locksmith such as Johnny...read more
2 Totally Unique Places To Hide Your Spare Key Outside
If you want to make sure that you are no longer at risk of being locked out of your home, you might want to hide a spare key outside. Of course, you will want to ensure that it is not visible or easily found by any criminals. To help you with this, you might want to take a few minutes to review the following two unique places to hide your spare house key. Under The Flowers This is a great hiding spot for a spare house key, because it is very unlikely that a criminal is going to naturally start digging through your flower garden in hopes of finding a key. Of course, you cannot simply stick the spare key directly into the soil because it would rust in a very short amount of time. Therefore, you are going to want to place the key inside of a plastic medication bottle with a lid that closes tight. You will then dig a little hole into the ground near one of your favorite flowers, as this will help you to remember where it is located in the flower bed. Do make sure that you dig a little bit away from the flowers so that you do not accidentally harm any roots. To help jog your memory easier, you can always add a cute decorative stone or statue over the spot where the key is hiding. In The Dog House Do you have a dog that occasionally visits his dog house outside? If so, this might be the perfect hiding spot for a spare key. After all, it would be rather hard for a stranger to know for sure whether your pooch is around, and they will therefore probably decide to steer clear of the dog house. However, you can easily hide a spare key on the inside of the front walls of the dog house. Simply place your spare house key in a plastic sandwich bag and then make sure that you are completely sealing it. Use duct or packing tape to secure the bag to the interior wall of the dog house. You might want to make sure that you are covering the entire small bag with strong tape so that there are no corners or sides of the bag sticking out, as this might be seen by your dog as a chew toy. As you can see, there really are some creative places to hide your spare house key. All you have to do is pick the spot that appeals to you the most so that you will be less likely to forget about its location. For more help with keys, contact a local...read more
Learn How A Personal Security Company Can Keep You And Your Belongings Safe During A Trip
When traveling by yourself, it is important to do everything you can to keep yourself and your belongings safe. There are now personal security cameras available that can help you keep yourself and your belongings as safe as possible when you travel. The following guide walks you through a few ways the personal security cameras can be useful to you. Security Cameras Are Small and Lightweight The personal security cameras are designed to be lightweight so that they can be worn on a backpack strap or neck lanyard without making you feel weighed down. Also, the compact design allows you to wear the camera without anyone noticing that you have it on. Security Cameras Can Protect Your Belongings The small design of the camera allows you to place them on a shelf, table, or a bookcase in your hotel room to monitor what happens in the room when you are not there. There are some cameras that are motion activated so that they only recording when movement is detected in the room. The Videos Can be Saved Digitally The security cameras can upload the video recordings directly to the internet if there is internet access available. The videos may be able to stream or they will simply save to an online data bank for you to be able to view them at your own leisure. The streaming option allows you to see what is going on in your hotel room as it is happening so that if anyone is looking through your belongings or taking any of them, you may be able to catch them in the act. Security Cameras are often Rechargeable Rather than having to constantly change batteries in the camera, there are many options that have rechargeable batteries. The batteries can often be charged through a wall outlet or through a car charger to allow you to have versatility with your charging. The online data bank will often require someone to have a password to gain access to it. You want to be sure that you provide someone you trust with the password so that they can check the video recordings if anything happens to you during your trip. If you are injured or kidnapped, the person will be able to look at the video and see the person that hurt you or where you were last located when the last video was taken. This could be highly helpful in an emergency situation. For further assistance, contact a local outlet, such as Arapahoe County Security Center...read more
When To Replace Your Lock Instead Of Re-Keying
One favorite trick by many locksmiths is to re-key a lock rather than completely replacing it. If you lose your keys, move into a new home or kick out an old roommate, re-keying your locks rather than replacing them can be an affordable way to get the security that you want. However, there are some cases in which you should replace your lock instead. These are some of the cases in which you should talk to a locksmith about replacing your lock completely. Your Key Gets "Stuck" a Lot As locks get older, it can be common for keys to get "stuck," making it difficult for you to open the lock. However, even though it can be more difficult for you to open your lock, it can actually make it easier for someone else to pick the lock and get in. Plus, even re-keying the lock could still lead to problems in the future since the parts inside the lock itself are probably worn out. To prevent problems with your lock in the future, you should consider replacing it rather than re-keying it. Then, your new lock will be more difficult to pick, and you won't have to worry about having trouble getting in your home because of a sticky lock. You Want to Upgrade Your Home Security In many cases, the locks that come with homes or new home doors are cheap. Although they might do the job, they can be easier for a crafty thief to pick. Even though you will have to spend a little more money, it can be worth it to swap out cheap locks with a more expensive, stronger option. Look for a strong, heavy lock with a shield that prevents lock picking, or talk to a local locksmith about your best choices. He or she might suggest a double-cylinder lock rather than a lock with a single cylinder or might even recommend a much stronger—although more expensive—mortise lock. You can also look at digital locks that require a code to get in rather than a simple deadbolt. In some situations, re-keying your lock can be a smart idea. However, this isn't always the best choice. In other situations, it's smart to replace your lock completely. Luckily, a good locksmith can help you choose the right lock for your home and can install it for you. Then, you should not have to worry about having any problems with your lock in the future. For more information, contact locksmiths like those at The Lock...read more

Guanylyl cyclase (GC)-A and B are homologous, peptide-activated, cGMP synthesizing enzymes that regulate blood pressure, heart size, long bone growth and oocyte maturation. Hence, they are desirable drug targets. However, lack of regulatory information prevents maximal therapeutic utilization of these enzymes for the treatment of cardiovascular, skeletal and reproductive diseases. Adenine nucleotides regulate GC-A and GC-B by binding unidentified intracellular high affinity activation and low affinity inhibitory sites through undefined mechanisms. Both receptors are highly phosphorylated in resting cells and dephosphorylated receptors are unresponsive to natriuretic peptides (NPs). Hormones that oppose the actions of NPs elevate intracellular calcium, which causes the dephosphorylation of all receptor phosphorylation sites. In contrast, activated protein kinase C (PKC) is hypothesized to phosphorylate a conserved receptor consensus site that reduces phosphorylation of a separate critical regulatory site. The long-term objective of this application is to determine how hormones, adenine nucleotides and phosphorylation regulate GC-A and GC-B. We intend to accomplish this objective by pursuing the following four specific aims: 1) Determine how adenine nucleotides regulate GC- A and GC-B, 2) Identify how PKC inhibits GC-B, 3) Determine how disease-causing missense mutations affect GC-B function, and 4) Identify how hormones inhibit GC-B.
The first aim will measure the effects of structurally unique and reactive purines on the kinetic properties and binding sites of GC-A and GC-B. Receptors containing mutations in purine binding sites will determine whether the catalytic domains are symmetric or asymmetric homodimers.
The second aim will determine how PKC inhibits GC-B by identifying the requisite PKC isoform and phosphorylation sites using siRNA knockdown, in vitro kinase assays and phosphomimetic mutants.
The third aim will determine how each of the twelve dwarfism causing missense mutations inactivate GC-B as well as how a newly discovered mutation that leads to skeletal overgrowth constitutively activates GC-B. Effects of these mutations on 125I-CNP binding, guanylyl cyclase activity, post-translational processing and cellular localization will be determined. Finally, the fourth aim will investigate how hormones inactivate GC- B in mouse follicles, granulosa cells, chondrocytes and smooth muscle cells by assessing the requirements for calcium elevations, PKC activation, and various receptor phosphorylation sites. The proposed research is significant because the successful completion of these specific aims will advance understanding of hormone-, adenine nucleotide- and phosphorylation-dependent regulation of GC-A and GC-B and may reveal new therapeutic targets.
The proposed research is relevant to public health because it investigates activation and inactivation mechanisms for receptors that compensate for heart failure, stimulate skeletal growth and regulate ovulation in humans. Hence, it is expected to lead to new therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular, skeletal and reproductive diseases.
