Rochester, N.Y. – The Canisius College hockey team fell in its regular-season finale at RIT on Saturday night, losing 3-1 in Rochester. The Griffs finish the regular season with a 12-19-3 record and 11-13-3 mark in Atlantic Hockey play, while the Tigers improve to 11-18-5 and 10-14-3 against league foes.
The Griffs earned the seven seed for the Atlantic Hockey Tournament, which begins next week. Canisius will square off with 10th-seeded Sacred Heart in Buffalo for a best 2-of-3 first-round series, starting on Friday.
"Our attention now turns toward the postseason and a strong Sacred Heart team," said Canisius head coach Dave Smith. "We need to build on the many positives that are there for us and just hit the reset button to get ready for the playoffs."
Senior captain Ryan Bohrer scored the lone goal for the Griffs in the defeat.
Junior Keegan Asmundson stopped 31 shots between the pipes.
The Tigers grabbed the early lead in the contest when Adam Mitchell scored with 11:39 remaining in the first. Mitchell finished from the slot off a pass from behind the net for the 1-0 advantage.
The Griffs finally solved the RIT defense midway through the second period, scoring their first goal in four-plus periods during the weekend. Freshman Jack Hidi fired a pass to an open Bohrer on the back door the senior redirected the puck into the net for his second tally of the season. Junior defender Logan Roe also registered an assist on the goal with 8:39 remaining in the second, knotting the contest at one.
RIT would answer back, however, when Thompson scored for the Tigers with 5:12 left in the second. A shot by RIT was deflected in front and went right to Thompson with an open look. He then buried his chance on the open net for the 2-1 RIT lead.
The Tigers extended their lead to two with 13:31 remaining in regulation when Dan Schuler scored on a breakaway for the 3-1 lead. The Griffs were unable to pull any closer in the final 13-plus minutes as RIT finished the regular season with the two-goal victory.
RIT outshot the Griffs, 34-27, on the night. Canisius was 0-for-5 on the power play, while the Tigers went scoreless in two extra-man chances.
Mike Rotolo recorded 26 saves for the Tigers in net.
The Griffs open the first-round series on Friday at the Buffalo State Sports. Canisius and Sacred Heart begin the best-of-three series at 7:05 p.m.
Game Notes: Canisius won the Atlantic Hockey title last season as the seven seed … The Griffs and Pioneers split a two-game series during the 2013-14 regular season … Canisius was swept in an Atlantic Hockey series for the first time this season.

Discussion in '2008 Playoffs' started by max, Apr 22, 2008.
I second that. (i hope i am wrong though)
I don't know if this is the best comparison, mikhail. The Pistons players have been together a lot longer than the Celtics players. Besides, it seems like the Pistons have let a bunch of series go too long. Orlando comes to mind. I do agree with your comment about them possibly using up a lot in the regular season.
I don't know. Would you rather play Cleveland or Boston in the ECF at this point if the Pistons get by Orlando? Cleveland would most assuredly beat the Hawks and then you get that whole Ben "I've Got Something to Prove Against My Old Team" Wallace show going on. As much as I think Boston matches up well with Detroit, Cleveland scares the he11 out of me.
One thing I did notice about the end of the game was that there was a lot of Rondo for Boston (and not much KG). Rondo's got to make sure the star gets the ball, and not try to make plays himself. On the other end of the court, at least on one possession I saw, Bibby was well defended so he shoved the ball over to Joe Johnson who was also well defended. Johnson created enough space to get off a 3 - which he made. It demonstrated a difference on leadership and understanding of the teams point guards. Rondo didn't have enough sense to get the ball to the superstar, Bibby did.
I'd rather play Cleveland. Ben's revenge factor didn't do the Bulls much good last year in the playoffs against the Pistons.
Good point. I worry about Gibson and LeBron. And their active big men outboarding our guys. 'Course, Maxiell is pretty active, isn't he? I love the fact that he is starting now. Should have been done a while ago IMO.
Whoever we play, it's starting to look a whole lot easier for us to make it to the finals.
I wouldn't care which one we played, I just want both of them to have to play each other and beat each other up. No way I want to go into another ECF watching the opponent kick back and relax for a week while the Pistons are still slugging it out in Round 2.
Let's just hope the Pistons aren't already looking ahead like we are.
They never look ahead until they're down in a series...
LOL, let's hope so...but if anything, I think this first round should show us once again that we might not be able to tell very much from one series to the next, or even within a series. When the Pistons were down 2-1 after a stunningly bad Game 3 loss and Boston was up 2-0 with two blowouts, weren't things looking "easy" for Boston to make the Finals? And now that the Pistons have righted the ship and cruised to the second round while the Celtics struggle just to put the Hawks away, it looks like we've got the edge. But both of those outlooks could easily get reversed again.
Yeah, I'm getting too carried away. Turkoglu and Lewis can present problems for this team. If these guys start to toss in 3's by the bunches, we'll be in for a long series. They're much better shooters than Philly. And Sheed and Maxy's help D will be crucial on Howard. I think Howard will eat McDyess for lunch. I feel the need, the need for Sheed in this series.
They could, but I like the theory that Boston doesn't have a playoff gear this season. They expended all their energy and talent to have a glorious regular season and they are now out of gas and cannot raise it up a notch. It wouldn't surprise me if they lost to Atlanta in game 7.
Die Celtics Die
Although I really like the idea of Boston and Cleveland beating each other up over a long seven game series, it's hard not to echo the sentiment.
Perhaps he should have gotten the ball to Pierce, but Allen was missing everything and Garnett's a huge choker. Rondo's turning into a fine player; I don't really have a problem with him taking shots.
Yeah we got to play these games first, just ask the Celtics and Deshawn Stevenson..Don't assume our series with the Magic will be any easier than the supposed slam dunk over the Sixers... I assume nothing until the third game is played... Anybody recall what happen in the third game of last years ECF, or 2006 Finals with the Heat and Mavs?? The Celtics Nation thought they had their series wrapped before it was even played and got their wake up call in game 3. If Pierce gets into foul trouble again and Ray Allen bricks a few shots like he did in the 4th qtr last night then the unthinkable can happen...Red Auerbach is already rolling in his grave now.
we thought they would spend their energy. But their big three did not really log lot of minutes specially towards the end of the season. They were well rested coming to the playoffs. i hope the hawks series could drain their energy though.
I don't know what to make of the Celts. In hindsight one can find reasons why they are having trouble but did you see this comming? Amazing thing is Atlanta has won 3 of the last 4 games so they are very capable of winning game 7. I have been pulling for the Hawks. I find them a very likeable team.
I think the fact that Atlanta has been killed 3 times by an average of 22 points in Boston this series trumps the fact that they've won 3 of the last 4. As I said before, I'll be thrilled if I'm wrong, but I doubt it.
Separate names with a comma.

Posted by Adele Sage on the Customer Experience Professionals Blog on March 15, 2013
There's no question that executive support can make or break a voice of the customer (VoC) program. With an executive (or several) onboard, VoC teams can get the funding and tools that they need to succeed. And VoC leaders from Forrester's 2012 Voice Of The Customer Awards almost unanimously gave others the advice to build executive support.
If you're struggling to get your program off the ground, heed their wise advice. Appeal to executives with evidence (metrics, business results) and with compelling stories about what might be going wrong for customers and how they've been delighted by the experience. Ask for execs to support you in collecting feedback from customers, analyzing that feedback, taking on projects to improve the experience, and monitoring to make sure that those projects are working.
But executives aren't the only key to a successful program. Top-down support is important, but it has to be balanced with bottom-up support, too. What happens when execs mandate that everyone cares about customer feedback? People don't really care. It feels like a fad. Employees have to feel some ownership and control — or they just won't buy in.

text: Monroe is a smart cerebral player. He doesn't like what he's seen from the Pistons. It will take more than money for his next team to sign him. I'm still hoping we're in the running, but we really only have til the start of the season to impress him...(with our draft and different roster). I believe he'll be leaving us for greener pastures.

Hi Folks,
This is my first post on here and i just want to say what a great board this is... with a wealth of knowledge from all over the world, my name is Ian and i am the XO of the UK Garrison and live just outside Glasgow, this is my first go at a Fett costume and painting a Helmet such as this for that matter so any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am unsure if this question has been asked before so please excuse my ignorance if it has, i have just bought my first Boba maker helmet and wish to paint it in the ROTJ style paint job but i am not sure where to begin, so i was hoping there was a tutorial some where that would help.
Could anyone point me in the right direction please, as i am based in the UK does anyone know what is the best paint to use , i know it is best to use water based paints but what are the best colours to use.
Thanks in advance of any replies.

We would like to extend a huge thank you to everyone for helping to make our Fan Club Table at Celebration IV a HUGE SUCCESS! Mirax spoke with Commander Voltaire on Monday for a final recap and he said that our table was very very well received by everyone. We always had a crowd fof at least 5-20 people and when there were members in costume, even more! At the phoptoshoot on Saturday, there was a swarm of up to 150 people taking pictures of our members! James (CV) also said that many of the other fan booths were unmanned during convention hours and when they were manned, the members of those booths looked bored, but our members showed up on time and were outgoing and enthusiastic! We simply cannot thank everyone enough for their hardwork and dedication. We honestly did not know how well this would turn out since this is our first time attempting a publicity event and since we technically are not a fan club, but instead are a collective of individuals working towards a similar goal. Once again, our members have proven that we are much more than that, we are a community and a family who truly come through for each other and all of you truly came through for us at C4.
We would like to extend a couple of special thank you's:
To Gino, Shockwave, Count Dookie, and Braks for all of their efforts to rebrand TDH. Everyone seemed to love the new design and the professional look that we had at Celebration. Many a late nights were spent working on and perfecting the new logo. Gino also designed the banners, stickers, business cards, and t-shirts for the booth.
To Dustin Crops Boy for making the banners and t-shirts. He not only gave us a great price, but got everything done so very quickly for us. Without his help and generocity, our table would not have had the professional look that it did.
To Seven and bobamatt for printing our business cards and stickers. They were a pleasure to work with, were very professional, prompt, patient and gave us an excellent price and product.
To Commander Voltaire for heading things up at the convention. It was a relief to have someone that was able to oversee the operation of the table and make sure it ran smoothly. He really was a tremendous help in setting up and tearing down and for making sure everything ran smoothly. Also thank you to Cruzer and MandalorFett who were also a part of the organizing committee for this huge event.
To Goro for the beautiful statue that he made and displayed at the table with our new logo. It looked amazing!
To Mirax who was the rallying point and overall organizer of this event. As usual, most of Mirax's work was behind the scenes, but she orchestrated this entire event from start to finish.
To our members, to everyone who volunteered their time, money, or both. This would not have been possible without you and we simply can't thank you enough for your generosity. It is our members that truly make TDH what it is and you represented us with professionalism and enthusiasm.
We could not be more pleased with how this event went. We hoped and planned for the best but thanks to all of you, all out expectations were exceeded. Again, thank you to everyone for helping make this possible and we look forward to doing it again in the future!
With great appreciation,
The Dent and TDH Admin Staff

Gabe Carimi Scouting Report
|Wisconsin Badgers
|Jersey Number:
|Height & Weight:
|6'7 - 327 lbs.
|40-Yard Dash
|Bench press
|Vertical jump
|Broad jump
2011 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report:
Gabe Carimi, OT, Wisconsin
Carimi has great size and will be blocking in the league for years to come. This is true because he is simply a tenacious blocker who still has room to improve. He plays with a lot of toughness and possesses enough strength to hold his position. Carimi plays to the whistle and really excels in run-blocking.
At the next level, a lot of his problems in pass protection can be worked on. The main issue is his footwork. He's not quick, he leans forward too much at the waist and needs to learn to keep his feet underneath him at all times. Right now, he's a big liability at left tackle but could eventually be a career pro at either spot if he's given the right coaching. This is an optimistic point of view as many will see him as a pure right tackle in the NFL.
He attacks defenders with his hands and gets off the line well. Since he's so aggressive, some of these fundamental issues did not matter as much at the college level. But against elite pass-rushers, it remains to be seen if he has any answer to their quickness off the edge.
Carimi is a solid prospect who can likely play in his first NFL season.
Gabe Carimi projects as a mid- to late-first round selection in the 2011 NFL Draft.
1 Comment | Add Yours
With the pass happy nfl Carimi is not what most teams are looking for. He blocks very well on runs, but slow feet and poor hand technique hurt him against good pass rushers. An ot taken in the first round generally projects as a left tackle and Carimi is certainly not going to be a left tackle in the nfl.

Portable, powerful, and a breeze to use, Python is ideal for both standalone programs and scripting applications. With this hands-on book, you can master the fundamentals of the core Python language quickly and efficiently, whether you're new to programming or just new to Python. Once you finish, you will know enough about the language to use it in any application domain you choose.
Learning Python is based on material from author Mark Lutz's popular training courses, which he's taught over the past decade. Each chapter is a self-contained lesson that helps you thoroughly understand a key component of Python before you continue. Along with plenty of annotated examples, illustrations, and chapter summaries, every chapter also contains Brain Builder, a unique section with practical exercises and review quizzes that let you practice new skills and test your understanding as you go.
This book covers:
Mark Lutz is the world leader in Python training, the author of Python's earliest and best-selling texts, and a pioneering figure in the Python community since 1992. He is also the author of O'Reilly's Programming Python, 3rd Edition and Python Pocket Reference, 3rd Edition. Mark began teaching Python classes in 1997, and has instructed more than 200 Python training sessions as of 2007. Mark also has BS and MS degrees in Computer Science and 25 years of software development experience.Whenever Mark gets a break from spreading the Python word, he leads an ordinary, average life with his kids in Colorado. Mark can be reached by email at , or on the web at http://www.rmi.net/~lutz.
View Mark Lutz's full profile page.
The animal on the cover of Learning Python, Third Edition, is a wood rat (Neotoma Muridae). The wood rat lives in a wide range of conditions (mostly rocky, scrub, and desert areas) over much of North and Central America, generally at some distance from humans. They are good climbers, nesting in trees or bushes up to six meters off the ground; some species burrow underground or in rock crevices or inhabit other species' abandoned holes.
These grayish-beige, medium-size rodents are the original pack rats: they carry anything and everything into their homes, whether or not it's needed, and are especially attracted to shiny objects such as tin cans, glass, and silverware.
The cover image is a 19th-century engraving from Cuvier's Animals. The cover font is Adobe ITC Garamond. The text font is Linotype Birka; the heading font is Adobe Myriad Condensed; and the code font is LucasFont's TheSans Mono Condensed.

You won't learn Python
By Urfer
from Undisclosed
Comments about oreilly Learning Python, 3rd Edition:
I like the old 1999 edition of "Learning Python" very much: a thin book with nice examples that will teach you how to write Python programs.However, I find this edition of "Learning Python" quite useless: a big fat book that describes all separate functions of Python. You can learn these separate items, but the book will not teach you how to write Python programs.This edition is like learning all separate parts of a car, but not learning how to drive.

Great Book for Beginners to Python
By Andre
Great book for beginners because it very thoroughly covers the basic python syntax (and more) while also covering the python philosophy. Note: It doesn't cover the Standard Library of python in detail, but that's not what this book is trying to do. This author has another book for that: Programming Python.

Enough with the sales pitch!
By Ian Pilcher
As a somewhat experienced C and Java programmer, I am finding that the pace of the book is rather slow. For those less familiar with concepts like functional programming, OOP, etc., this may be helpful.The more grating aspect of the book is the constant Python sales pitch. Look, I've bought the book and read to page 501. You can stop telling me how C, C++, and Java suck and Python is the answer to all of the world's problems.

Excellent Coverage Of Python
By Noah Gift
After getting a review copy of Learning Python, 3rd edition, I had forgot how much really great material was in the book. If you are interested in learning about Python 2.6 and Python 3000, and have some experience with Programming in another language this is an excellent book.This book is not a reference book like the excellent Python Essential Reference, but more of a example driven guide through features of the language. I would pick this book up even if you know Python, as it covers new language features that have not been documented in some books.

Good starter for Python
By Anonymous
I found this book to be a very good starter for learning Python. It deals with all the things you need to know what you first start out with Python. It is easy to read and the author knows how to keep you interested, even in the more theoretical parts.It starts off with background information about Python. What is it, where did it come from, how do you start Python programs etc. Then it continues with the basic principles of how Python works. Python's basis differs quite a bit from other popular languages and the book makes the differences easy to understand.It then continues to the actual programming syntax. By now, you'll have read some 200 pages of background information so you'll understand how python works before you start writing anything in it. I find this to be a big plus, because the examples make perfect sense, you don't have to translate the code into some understanding of how Python works, it just falls into place naturally because of what you learned before.The book then deals with another big thing in Python: modules. Again everything is explained very clearly, you don't get the feeling that you need to be an ace programmer to understand it.The last segment of the book deals with OOP and I'm glad to see that even here the author does not assume that you're an expert already. He takes time to explain how OOP works in theory, and then procedes to demonstrate how to do it in Python.Are there any downsides? Not really. I'm an experienced programmer but I didn't notice the book skipping any required information.Alltogether I think this book is a great start for anyone who want's to learn Python. It's detailed, entertaining and easy to read.

Can I Buy Just Two Tires?
We know that a lot of drivers are working pretty hard to make a dollar go farther and that the outlay for a full set of four tires – even inexpensive tires – can be considerable. That's why we run across drivers pretty often who ask if it's okay to just replace a pair of tires, then buy the other pair when they can afford them.
The answer is…yes, but…
You'll really need to pay attention to the size of the set of tires that you've already got and go with that exact same size of tires for your new pair. Having mismatched sizes of tires on your vehicle can result in squirrelly and unpredictable handling and ride quality. If your existing tires are all-season, go with all-season tires. If they're winter tires, go with winter tires. Ideal ...[more]
So You Get A Flat Tire...What Now?
Nobody ever looks forward to a flat tire, and nobody ever says "well, that was a really good time" after having one. You can at least minimize the damage to your tire and danger to yourself, though.
Flats vs Blowouts
If you get a blowout, you'll know about it right away. Sometimes the tire can fail dramatically, with a bang as loud as a shotgun going off. Other times, it might just be a loss of air and a sudden change in your car's handling, followed by vibration, noise and a pull to one side. If it's a front tire that fails, your car might be a real handful to drive until you can get to a stop.
In either case, your first job is to pull off the road as quickly (but safely!) as you can. Don't jam on the brakes or make any sudden mo ...[more]
Mixing Tires – Bad Idea
In a perfect world, all four tires would wear out at the same time. In the same perfect world, everyone would be able to afford a whole set of tires all at once. Unfortunately, things often just do not work out that way.
Sometimes you may just have to replace tires as you can afford them, one or two at a time, but there are some important things to bear in mind if you have to do that.
If you can only afford to replace one or two tires, it's essential that you go with tires that are identical (or at least as close as possible) to the car's remaining tires. That means that internal construction, size, tread pattern and design should be close to the same. Don't mix winter tires with all-season tires, don't mix run-flat tires with ...[more]

The Great Rotisserie Chicken Taste-Off
By TOM LYNCH
New Hampshire Union Leader | October 22. 2013 10:11PM
Supermarkets around the state fire up the rotisserie ovens early in the morning and keep a steady stream of birds flocking to the heat-lamped racks through the day, waiting for hungry shoppers to walk by, get a whiff of the savory aroma and grab one (or more) to take home for dinner.
We recently bought two rotisserie chickens from each of the Manchester-Nashua area's big three supermarket chains. (No, we didn't include wholesale clubs or local markets — maybe we'll do it again!) We invited the newsroom crew here at the Union Leader — gastronomes all — to do a blind taste test and rate each store's bird.
We chose one bird from each store as the "model" for our photo shoot and carved up the second. The tasters viewed each model chicken and sampled from an adjacent tray containing the model bird's cut-up compatriot.
Check out the test results below:
The best bird: Shaw's
First: 10 Second: 2 Third: 3
Price: $6.99
Some of the comments:
"Great flavor all the way through."
"Looks plump & crispy. Juicy. Not as much spice/flavor as the outside promised."
"Seasoning could be tasted all the way through."
"This one had the tastiest spices on the skin."
The voting:
First: 4 Second: 10 Third: 1
Price: $4.69
Some of the comments:
"Good – just misses being best."
"Salty – bird tasted as if it had been brined."
"Well seasoned, tender and juicy – but not as much as Bird A (Shaw's)."
"Best even color, except burned wingtips."
"Close between this one and Bird B (Hannaford), but this one had the best flavor of the three."
The voting:
First: 0 Second: 5 Third: 10
Price: $4.99 (on sale, regular $5.49)
"Least appealing visually. Small. Moist, but as bland as it looked."
"A bit dry ... Not brown enough."
"Least visually appealing, but not bad."
"Good rotisserie flavor."
"Pale color; dark meat moist; good flavor."

Sooner or later you will get tired of the aggravation, greed, and "misunderstandings" that comes with using recruiters and agents. When that day dome for you, as it did for me last month, this link will prove to be a blessing for you:
Not only will have access to over 6,800 direct employers but you also have a list of every school authorized by SAFEA to hire foreign teachers. So if a school offerds you a job and they are not on this list, you can take a pass.
This list also provides you something you can never get from your China employer, their full legal Chinese name that is registered with the government which is required to file a complaint. Also without this Chinese name you cannot check with SAIC to see if the school is even licensed to do business as a school in China (about 30% of the schools are not).

Cops: Man stole car with toddler in backseat
Published: Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 11:14 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 11:14 p.m.
FORT MYERS — Authorities are searching for a man they say stole a car with a 2-year-old girl in the backseat in southwest Florida.
Fort Myers Police say the suspect stole the car from an apartment complex Friday and quickly dropped the child off down the road. The suspect then allegedly drove to another location and jumped into another car, possibly a white sedan and drove off.
The News-Press (http://www.ittybittyurl.com/up2) reports a woman walking her dog found the little girl crying and asking for her mother. The child appeared to be unharmed and was reunited with her mother.
Police said the woman had just arrived home at her apartment and was helping another person out of the car when the suspect jumped in and took off.
The suspect faces grand theft auto charges.

Most of NEA's Largest Affiliates Are Awash in Red Ink
posted at 4:31 pm on November 2, 2012 by Mike Antonucci
An Education Intelligence Agency analysis of 2010-11 Internal Revenue Service filings reveals as many as eight of the National Education Association's 11 largest state affiliates do not have the financial assets to match their liabilities and total almost $400 million in combined debt.
The lion's share of the union's debt comes from employee pension and post-retirement health care liabilities. The costs of these benefits have troubled NEA affiliates for many years, causing budgets crises in places like Michigan, Illinois, Pennsylvania and Ohio. Even staff at NEA headquarters made concessions to help ease the strain of post-retirement benefits on the national union's budget. The latest data show that many affiliates continue to struggle despite receiving substantial relief in pension liabilities.
EIA has constructed a table that lists each of NEA's state affiliates, its budget deficit or surplus for 2010-11 and its net assets, positive or negative, as of the end of the 2010-11 school year. For purposes of comparison, the table also lists the number of days each affiliate could operate solely on reserves based on its 2010-11 expenditures and net assets.
These latter numbers are important because while certain state affiliates may have run budget deficits in 2010-11, they may still have more than enough reserves to cover one or more years of shortfalls. Others, however, continue to add to their mounting debt and will require some outside force to balance the books.
The New York State United Teachers ran a $29.9 million deficit in 2010-11, and is a total of $201.1 million short of assets to pay all liabilities. NYSUT is on the hook for $286 million in post-retirement benefits.
The California Teachers Association is much healthier, with a small $1.4 million surplus in 2010-11 and net assets of more than $115.6 million, good enough for 230 days of operation.
The New Jersey Education Association managed a $1 million surplus after gaining more than $29.3 million in pension relief. Still, NJEA has more than $38.7 million in red ink.
The Pennsylvania State Education Association greatly improved its budget picture, but has only $6 million in net assets, enough for only 37 days of operation.
The Florida Education Association is similarly situated, with a small surplus and only 53 days of operational reserves.
The Illinois Education Association is still climbing out of a deep hole, finally breaking into the black after $4.9 million in pension relief, but its net assets will allow for only two days of operation.
The Michigan Education Association is a financial basket case, carrying an $11 million deficit in 2010-11, and falling $113 million short in assets. Believe it or not, the picture could have been much worse, as MEA managed to generate $31.1 million in pension relief.
The Ohio Education Association is not much better off. Despite $27.4 million in decreased pension liabilities, OEA still had a $9.1 million deficit and is $14.4 million short in net assets.
The Massachusetts Teachers Association cut pension liabilities by $10.1 million, but is still $2.8 million short of its obligations.
The 2010-11 picture for the Wisconsin Education Association Council was still relatively good, despite a $2.6 million budget deficit. The union had 168 days of operational reserve. However, these figures were mostly compiled before the effects of Act 10 on WEAC's existence. We can expect next year's numbers to look very different.
I make note of the 11th largest affiliate simply because its internal money problems have very much occurred under the radar. The Washington Education Association was able to reduce its unfunded pension liabilities by $3.2 million and run a surplus, but it is still almost $18.6 million short of covering its liabilities.
At least six other NEA state affiliates were able to reduce their pension obligations. Some were able to rescue their bottom lines, others were not. You can see from the table that the efforts of Connecticut and Minnesota left them both with a very large surplus, but affiliates in Iowa, Texas, Virginia and West Virginia were only able to slightly lighten their red ink.
I need to add that the South Carolina Education Association has not filed, or has not yet had posted, its disclosure report for 2010-11. SCEA was placed under NEA trusteeship in April 2010 and its report would cover the first year of national oversight of its finances.
It is ironic that the internal situations of these affiliates are very much, in microcosm, like that faced by state governments. There are a number of ways out of the red ink: increased dues, increased membership, and better return on investments on the revenue side, and reduced staff, reduced benefits, and negotiated relief with employee unions on the expenditure side. And, like some state governments, unions could just ignore the problem and hope it goes away. Although NEA would rather we didn't, we should pay close attention to the measures it uses to deal with its own runaway labor costs.

simple set operations
hey all,
I'm hesitant to ask these questions (because they are so simple) but after a
15 minute search through the docs I'm getting nowhere, so here goes:
1) what's the easiest way to generate a list of elements? ie:
'a' .. 'h' == { a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h }
2) Is there a quick way to check whether an element is in a set?
if ('a' == (any('a','b','c','d')) { print "a is in a,b,c,d"; }
The first one I see could possibly be done by 'Array', but I don't see how -
the '#' refers to the generation of numbers, but there seems to be no
corresponding 'letter' symbol.
As for #2, the easiest way would be through an overloading of the '==' operator,
but again, that doesn't seem to work..
Thanks much for any help,

As regular readers know, sometimes I get topics from looking at the searches that brought people to my blog (thank you, wordpress.com, for the great info!) Here's a great one:
How is it a good thing to go to a funeral?
Let me rephrase it just a bit:
Why would anyone in their right mind go to a funeral?
Jewish tradition gives us two big reasons to go to a funeral. The first, levayat hamet [accompanying the dead] is exactly what it sounds like: we accompany the dead person to the grave. The reason behind that is that dead bodies are vulnerable. They can't defend themselves. Bad things can happen to them. So we accompany the dead person to the grave to be sure that he or she is put in the ground with respect for the person that they were.
The second reason to go to a funeral is menachem avel [comforting the mourner]. "Comforting" does not mean "make them feel all better" – that's impossible. Comforting, in this context, means simply being with them, letting them know that people care. You do not need to "say the right thing" – all you really need to do is to avoid saying the wrong thing. Sometimes the best thing to do is to be silent. "I am so sorry for your loss" is perfectly fine. The traditional words of comfort are "May you be comforted among the mourners of Israel and Jerusalem" – another reminder to the mourner that he or she is not alone.
Things not to say: "You'll get over it." "He was old." "He's in a better place." "She's better off." or even "She's watching you from heaven." You have no proof that any of these things are true, so don't say them.
Funerals are uncomfortable if you are not used to them. Jewish funerals are generally quite short and simple. There are a few traditional prayers and psalms, and either the rabbi or the family stand up to talk a bit about the person who died. At graveside, there are brief prayers and then family and friends take a shovel of dirt and put it on the casket in the grave. These things are done to help bring home the reality of the death and to help the mourning process get moving.
The more funerals you attend, the more accustomed to them you will become. For tips on attending your first Jewish funeral, check out this article. Death is a part of life. It is a great kindness to mourners to reach out to them when they are grieving, and especially to attend the funeral.
How is it a good thing to go to a funeral? It is a good thing, because it is a kind thing. No one should stand alone by the grave of someone they love.

Much as we wish we could, we can't run our little t-shirt wonderland on cupid feathers and unicorn smiles. As of today, Shirt.Woot's first-day price for t-shirts will increase to $12.
With a couple extra bucks to pump into the Shirt.Woot Wonder Machine of Fabulousness, we'll hit ever-higher heights of t-shirt glory. We've resisted any price increases for over four years now, and we think twelve dollars plus free shipping is still a pretty rad price for high-quality, exclusive graphic tees.
The sad fact is, nothing in our business - blank shirts, ink, labor, shipping - is getting any cheaper. A happier fact is that Shirt.Woot has a full roster of cool projects in the works for 2012, which we just couldn't do on the incredible shrinking margins of our old price.
Thanks for sticking with us lo, these many years. And thanks in advance for paying a little more so that we can stick around for many years to come. Excelsior or something!

No qualms here, so long as you are still sticking to blanks made in the USA.
I had a feeling that this was coming down the pike sooner or later.
Well, I can honestly say that $12 still isn't that much to pay to feed my woot t-shirt addiction.
So thanks for being honest with us Mr. Toon and not pulling a "Reed Hastings" on us.
When does this go into effect? It says as of today, but it still says $10 on the main page.
When you say 'daily shirt.woot prices' does that mean the derby shirts will still be $10?
I support you, faceless corporation run apparently by monkeys and slugs. I can safely say that 90% of the t-shirts I own are 100% cotton, as well as being sold, advertised, and made in America by artistic people who's biographies are intricate and blatantly fictionalized to the betterment of all involved. Money is, by no fault of my own, being circulated in the US, and that cultures up the bunch of us. Though I'd love to pay $10 a shirt indefinitely, $12 is not by any measure unreasonable; especially considering the extra projects that have been undertaken recently. I now own Nevermore in t-shirt, long sleeve, and hoodie, and the beloved Some Motivation Required has been temporarily resurrected in hoodie and duffel bag format. Start selling prints and I may drain my bank account much more quickly; but until then I will not begrudge you the additional 20% per shirt.
Stay spunky woot!.
Sorry for the delay on the price increase. There were some technical difficulties, but it's corrected now. Early purchasers got an unplanned discount. All first day shirts will now be $12. This includes Derby shirts.
At least they didn't try to start up "shirtster" where you buy long sleeve shirts apart from their main site which sells only short sleeve shirts. At least i don't have to buy those shirts with a seperate login.
But the real question bodes... will "RANDOS" still be 6.66? they gotta be.
I still love you.

That's an excellent question? Can we get an equally excellent answer? Like, hopefully prices of the randoms will stay the same? I hope?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! It's like a horrible dream that I woke up in the middle of the night to!
I know that everyone else will play Mr. Cool-guy and go along with it, but I think it'll effect me because I'll be less prone to those impulsive purchases. The ones that you just "kinda" like and might once wear once or twice.
Think about it-- used to be 5 shirts for $50. Now, it's 5 shirts for $60.
That's the way that I think about it before I hit that stupidly large button next time.
I would also like to know if any other prices beyond dailys will be increasing.
I have to admit a little piece of me died when I noticed the increase, but I don't think it's unfair or expensive. Just means I have to leave my house more to make that green stuff.
Pretty dumb, you'll lost half your customer base. I guess Home.Woot will be short lived... HAHA
I'm curious to see what kind of impact we are going to see on overall sales in the next few weeks. I assume there will be at least a small cut to the number of first day sales, which will hopefully be outweighed by the increase in profit for woot.
What I'm more concerned about, though, is the impact on the reckoning. The purpose of increasing the sales cap to 6000 was to increase the number of first-time buyers, and this price increase seems like it would have the opposite effect. In addition, shirts in reckoning always sell better on days that have a successful shirt on the front page. With a cut to first-day sales, I wonder if there will also be an overall cut to reckoning sales. On the other hand, the $12 price is closer to the $15 for reckoning, so potentially it will be easier to justify the extra cost after the first day.
Obviously it will take some time to determine what this change will mean. Woot's shirts have always been great quality, and are well worth it even at the $15 mark- hopefully people will continue to see it that way.
Well...I am a little sad, but as some have pointed out already, $12 isn't too unreasonable, especially when you look at shirt prices on sites like Threadless. I'd have to argue about the "great" quality of Woot's shirts though :/ I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or what, but all my shirts as of late are just falling to pieces.
Fountain3586 wrote:Pretty dumb, you'll lost half your customer base. I guess Home.Woot will be short lived... HAHA
I highly doubt that. You actually think half of wooters are going to leave because of the first price increase in four years?
Disappointed, for sure. I'll probably still only buy my t-shirts from woot! though... although I'll probably buy fewer.
Still a good deal, and they're made in the USA and great quality... it'll definitely make it harder to rationalize the purchase, though :/
This price hike should seriously be reconsidered. I understand inflation and all that, of course, but the loss of business because of the extra $2 will be considerable. Instead of buying any shirt that I found interesting... I'll be thinking twice. For some people, that $2 matters. It sounds petty to not buy something over only a few dollars, but in the end it'll be my pockets thanking me. I'm sure a lot of people feel the same way I do.
I agree with Fountain3586. They are going to lose some customers over this, probably quite a few but not half. Most will probably just now buy as often, including myself! A 20% price increase is substantial when most businesses are reducing their prices to try and move merchandise. I love woot shirts and have bought several but I have to unfortunately disagree with the declaration that they are of "high-quality". They don't hold up at work like other shirts do. I've had some shirts for 10-15 years from other manufacturers that look like my woot shirts do in less than a year. :-( Take into account the price increase and I definitely won't be buying as often! We'll see if the price goes back down or how quickly it does. I wonder how much the shirts from the reckoning will be now?
So a 20% price hike? Seriously?!? I get raising the price, but 20% overnight is excessive. Perhaps you shouldn't have resisted more reasonable
price hikes for the past four years.
18 months after being acquired by the largest online retailer extant, with more bargaining power than anyone this side of Walmart; its necessary to raise prices 20%?
Sorry, but you've earned a "Bag of Bull-crap". It's bad business, and a weak argument.
Will Woot continue having Woot-off detours?
As someone who often already payed $15 for my shirts I don't think this is such a big deal. I usually try to resist the urge to purchase another shirt since I already have a pile that often falls on top of me when looking for something to wear but then the awesomeness combined with the limitedness pulls me in. If the shirts stay $15 on the reckoning then I actually won't feel so bad about not getting them the first day! :p
Crazy Random Happenstance; my wife brought to my attention that I was spending too much on T-shirts.
I don't begrudge Woot their profits, but this will
my shirt buying activities.
Could be worse, could be Threadless pricing.
In a world where there are apparently people still giving $15 for "Makin' Bread", "They See Me Rollin'", "A Wild Night", "Meatatarian" and "Inevitable Betrayal", I doubt the "drastic" $2 increase will really affect the dailies much...It might mean that the daily artists have to step up their game (some of the dailies are, honestly, pretty big stinkers).
As for me and my house, we shall continue to woot when the mood strikes us. And with free shipping, it's still cheaper than TeeFury or RIPT Apparel.
Jason Toon wrote:The sad fact is, nothing in our business - blank shirts, ink, labor, shipping - is getting any cheaper.
Not getting any more expensive either. Effectively, in the US, the only inflationary events going on are...well, NOTHING.*
This is why the Fed has no problem with loaning money for free. Don't lie to us, woot. This is 20% more profit in your pocket, this isn't a response to inflationary pressures. You've moved to Lietown, you lying liars.
*well, except for the price of cotton, which has gone up a lot thanks to widespread droughts. never mind.
$12 is still a good deal. I'll continue to buy. In fact, I usually can't make up my mind on the initial sale day and end up buying my stuff from the reckoning anyway!
While the price increase is reasonable for the product; it will inevitably curb my shirting habit. It's a lot easier for my brain to go, "hey, $10 - we can do that!" than it will be for my brain to go "hey, $12!"
Love you guys too. No hard feelings at all.
But I wonder...how about if those of us with Amazon prime could still get it for $10...
if that were the case, I for one would welcome our new Amazon overlords.
Will Reckoning shirts remain at $15?
I understand the need to increase the price and it is still a good deal for a great shirt. I just wish it didn't come right after I moved to Japan. I just added $5 to every shirt order, now I have to make that $7, I will sadly have to stop buying shirts for a while.
I still love you shirt.woot but you have become an expensive date and my meager salary cannot afford you.
$12 shipped is still a good price compared to the other daily tee sites, but I'm not sure I see the connection between shrinking/flat margins and starting new projects like the weeklies. I would be surprised if these required a ton of starting capital, and I'm guessing that they're intended to be profitable and therefore self-funding (if they aren't already), so unless there's something else in the pipeline, the official line is lacking. And as others have pointed out, $10 is an easier psychological threshold compared to $12.
For a silver lining, the weeklies so far have been promising, so if there's other stuff being planned that just sweetens the deal.
Hopefully this doesn't set a precedent for raising the rest of the price structure. I think it's fair to argue that the front page tees were underpriced, but it's harder to accept that for the reckoning and weeklies.
you're still my dog, dog.
This is fine by me. I know things arent getting any cheaper to produce in the today's costly world. Plus, I hope the Woot staff and shirt print staff are getting paid well and everyone's happy .
I dont think it'll affect the charts too much, as we still see #1 shirts sell for long spans of time at $15. If people want a shirt, they're going to get it, even at the slight price increase. You might see a dip on some of the 3rd place derby shirts, but then again, who knows. There've been sellout 3rd places too. The mystery will unfold before our very eyes!
As I'm occasionally suckered into spending $20 or more for a band t-shirt (often of a less-desirable, non-soft, extra-thick cotton or poly-cotton blend) or for a shirt from a place like ThinkGeek, etc., I think the $12 sounds totally reasonable.
Also, there were way too many hyphens in the above sentence for me to be completely happy with it.
As Ramy pointed out, I think we'll see a drop in the number of shirts bought on the first day. $10 was a terrific price for a good design, $15 is still a good price. I feel the gap between great shirts and so-so shirts will increase, however. Even a $2 increase will probably turn some people off from buying a borderline shirt they may have been willing to drop $10 on.
I would care a lot about this if there'd been a Woot shirt I wanted in the past, oh, eight months.
Material prices increase, eh, it happens. With cotton prices skyrocketing like they did last year, I'm surprised it wasn't sooner. But a big thank you for simply raising the price rather than acting like an orange juice company and shrinking the size by a few ounces. That would be awkward!
Meh. It's not that I have an issue paying $12 for a shirt. I've bought plenty in the Reckoning for $15. But I do find myself less willing to overlook the fit issues on women's shirt sizing at that price. I can get better fitting women's T's with a more flattering neckline for about the same price. I really dislike the way women's AA shirts fit across the chest.
If Reckoning shirts go up by $2, I can say that I would not buy any, given the sizing issues.

Amen to that!

Difficult? Naah.. its the easiest decision i ever made.
XBMC is without a doubt the most used app on my IPAD2. As long as other apps don't demand IOS5 i won't be upgrading untill XBMC is IOS5 compatible and there is a new Jailbreak out. To be honest: the IOS upgrade has some minor fixes but nothing really revolutionary.. most of the 'new' stuff has alternatives in cydia's appstore.

The tethered jailbreak is working... shouldn't be long before it's released... then the XBMC devs will likely have XBMC updated after that. I dare someone to ask when

So now him saying AI doesn't want to come off the bench b/c it's not a quote is pure speculation ? Classic. You can wait for a quote form AI that says "No i don't want to come of the bench", but i doubt it will happen. AI's the money and no one wants to make the money look bad.

Attention: Safety Advisory and Replacement Notice from Second Chance Armor MON-II FEM 207220
JACKSONVILLE, Florida - April 1, 2009 - Effective immediately, Second Chance Protective Products, LLC ("Second Chance") is initiating a body armor replacement program covering the two above-listed models of Second Chance Armor female vests sold after July 26, 2005.
These two models were originally certified by Second Chance Body Armor ("SCBA") in 2002 under NIJ Standard 0101.04. SCBA is an unrelated company that filed for bankruptcy in 2004. On July 26, 2005, we acquired the SCBA assets out of bankruptcy, including these two vest models.
Recent laboratory tests conducted by Second Chance have indicated that these two vest models do not consistently meet applicable compliance testing protocols under NIJ Standard 0101.04. While we are not aware of any field failures for either model, and both models have performed satisfactorily in recent "street threat" testing using small size vests, we are not satisfied that they meet our high quality standards.
Accordingly, out of abundance of caution, we are recalling and replacing all vests sold after July 26, 2005 at no cost to the end user or agencies.
We have notified the National Institute of Justice ("NIJ") about this body armor replacement program, and will be contacting affected dealers, agencies, and users in the next several days. Under this program, affected users will be offered a replacement vest or cash refund. Detailed instructions will be provided with our communications.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this replacement program. However, our priority is the safety of law enforcement officers and we are committed to providing only those products that meet our high quality standards.
For further information, please contact the Second Chance Vest Exchange Program Hotline at (866) 815-2914 or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Thank You!


text: I know a lot of us out there will salivate over the thought of BKnight becoming a Pistons. Some General manager and I won't mention any names, however, I will give a slight hint, his first name is Joe; anyway there is interest in obtaining this versatile guard. He flat out plays, he can shoot, dribble, run the fast break and plays outstanding defense. Can't find much wrong with this guy. Could be the backup that the pistons need.

ABC News releases first home video of Colorado shooter James Holmes
posted at 11:57 am on July 22, 2012 by Howard Portnoy
ABC News evidently believes that it and "investigative correspondent" Brian Rosshaven't helped enough by airing their wholly unsubstantiated speculations that Colorado shooting suspect James Holmes might have been politically motivated. As a result of that irresponsible reporting, the other James Holmes—the one who was nowhere near the theater in Aurora on Friday when 12 people were shot to death but does happen to belong to a local chapter of the Tea Party—hasreceived threatening phone calls.
Nope. ABC News is back on the case, this time releasing exclusive home video of the 24-year-old doctoral candidate in neuroscience. And what does the video reveal? Feel free to watch it for yourself, but be warned: You may want your money back. The footage, shot 2 years ago, shows a bright young man with an abiding interest in science and a promising future—and nothing more. From all outward indications James Holmes (the shooter) was happy and well-adjusted. The network has exploited the incident for a second time, disseminating raw video that is full of neither sound nor fury and that signifies nothing.
Actually, there is one new piece of evidence in the network report that is noteworthy. Holmes "was one of six recipients of a Neuroscience Training Grant from the National Institutes of Health, which funds pre-thesis Ph.D. students in the neuroscience program at the Anschutz Medical Campus." ABC doesn't come out and suggest that the federal government stop funding higher education but not because such a suggestion would be inane. Rather, it is because "investing" in higher education is one of the president's and the left's pet initiatives. Never mind that the market is currently so oversaturated with doctors of philosophy that a mere 14% of Ph.D. recipients in biology and the life sciences can expect to land a teaching job within five years. Spending taxpayer money on education is still unqualifiedly good.
And guns are unqualifiedly bad. That extrapolation from the tragedy in Aurora comes not fromBrian Ross from another leading liberal voice, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg.Bloomie almost simultaneous with the report of the massacre came out a statement of his own demanding that "the two people who want to be president of the United States stand up and tell us what they are going to do about [the availability of guns], because this is obviously a problem across the country."
As for Ross, Hans Bader of the Competitive Enterprise Institute reminds us that the ABC News veteran has a history of scaremongering. For a 2010 report on accelerator pedals sticking in certain models of Toyota, converting the vehicles to death traps, he received an Edward R. Murrow Award. It was only later that it was revealed that Ross had staged footage of a Toyota lunging out of control for his report.

Fox's Ablow Endorses "Doomsday Unit" In Case The Government "Tak[es] Control" Of "Individual Liberty"
Blog ››› ››› JUSTIN BERRIER
Fox News contributor and psychiatrist Dr. Keith Ablow has a weekly segment on Fox & Friends called "Normal or Nuts," in which he takes viewers' emails about their odd traits and then declares them either "normal" or "nuts." Usually these complaints fall into the category of personality quirks; for example, today's segment included a viewer asking if it was normal to have a crush on her sister's husband. But one of the emails this morning took an odd turn, when a viewer asked if it was normal that they were planning to "move to a doomsday unit in case of an attack." The viewer went on to describe their "safety silo" as having "space to store dry food for years" and being able to "run on wind power."
After co-host Gretchen Carlson read the email, which concluded with the viewer asking if the "safety silo" was "just craziness," Ablow reassured the viewer that, while he wished he could call the viewer "nuts," it made sense because a group of unnamed wealthy people had a plan to flee the country "in case things get so wildly out of control with the government taking over that there's no individual liberty left":
CARLSON (reading question): OK. I may move to a doomsday unit in case of an attack, my new home will have 9 foot thick concrete walls, run on wind power, and with space to store dry food for years. Is a safety silo just craziness?
ABLOW: No, you know, I wish it were. I honestly wish it were. I wish I could sit here and say, "Boy, that's so crazy." But I got to tell you, people with lots of money, they must be really crazy, because they're getting houses outside this country to flee to in case things get so wildly out of control with the government taking control that there's no individual liberty left. So this isn't craziness, but the question is wouldn't you rather build walls of steel in your character? That's never vulnerable.
Ablow's diagnosis?
Ablow has previously fearmongered about how the government could eventually rob Americans of their freedom. He has attempted to tie raising tax rates on the wealthy to Nazi Germany; claimed health care reform could "sow the seeds" of the "kind of oppression" seen in Egypt; and called a labor dispute between the National Labor Relations Board and Boeing "the end of freedom in America." (And this is just a tiny sample of Ablow's wild claims; you can read more here.)
Immediately after Ablow told the "doomsday unit" viewer that it was normal to have a plan to guard against the government robbing people of their individual liberty, he offered this diagnosis of the woman who has a crush on her sister's husband:

Shit or not, once you learned how to get good the game was hype as shit.
Notable games for me would be these though.
YouTube Video
Not sure what it was about Cardmon Hero that got me so freaking hooked. Played that game almost every day from start to finish. Was so sad when it got closed.
YouTube Video
The original Twelve sky had me hooked since I watched the original trailer and read the features and shit then played in the original closed beta. Played on and off for years and was my go to game whenever I had no other MMOs to play. Was so sad to hear it being shut down but was happy for the second one to be getting an english release! Then that one turned into shit fairly quickly since Aeria is full retard when it comes to handling their shit.
YouTube Video
And of course, motherflippin' DFO. The one game I was so freaking sad got shut down even though I had such long periods of time between times I'd actually play. Friend of mine made this video to record some pretty funny rage. I'm actually one of the people talking in the video, guess who I am. (Hint. I'm the one who mentioned the bit about yugioh cards and sellin' them.)
just some images from Google..
awesome game gone down the drains
There was actually a working private server for Survival Project I recall playing last year. Don't recall anything about it other than getting bored fairly quick. I think if you google that you'll find it, dunno if its still up though.
http://spgame.net/ private server from last year?
Ok here's my memories:
Aika was pretty fun as well, at least when the competition was rife and we went on raids everyday.
Infinity Online!
I heard that those 'developers' were just some random dudes that has the source code.. it didn't last long :/

I am re-reading Jon F. Merz's Lawson Vampire Series. I recently bought The Kensei (the latest installment) which prompted me to go back and re-read the whole series. It made me remember how good it was. I am so excited because two short stories that fill in some of the back story are about to release and next year the next installement The Ripper will be out so I am getting back up to date and of course falling back in love (with Lawson) all over again!
If you haven't checked him out, you are missing out!

Those on the gleefully maniacal Serge's trail include a conniving lawyer gulled into thinking Serge has the key to Al Capone's lost treasure, a Florida Department of Law Enforcement task force, and Serge's personal Javert, the obsessive, dubiously lucid but insightful Agent Mahoney. Dorsey cheerfully rejoices in Florida's colorful history and in the triumph of absurdity and anarchy over law and propriety. His police are no better than Keystone Kops, while tempering his deranged protagonist's taste for complex murder is Serge's unerring ability to select worthy targets. An unnecessary final revelation aside, series fans will be pleased. (Feb.)

I have had a fascination with Madame Tussaud since I was a child. I hope to one day visit one of the wax museums.
