Denilson believes Arsenal have the character to be successful this season.
The Brazilian is one of the many young players at the Club who have yet to pick up any silverware, but he sees no reason why they can't break their duck this time around.
Denilson can see an experience, spirit and togetherness about the squad that comes from growing up together as a team. Now he is confident Arsenal have what it takes to turn their potential into prizes – starting with the Carling Cup.
"I think we can win it this season, and I want to win it this season because for five years we haven't won any trophies," he said. "But now we are a little bit stronger than last season.
"Last season we lost some big games, and this season we are more experienced. We have a great team, we have young players, but quality as well. We have young players and we have character.
"We have to focus on every single game. If we focus on every single game we have a chance to win - not only the Carling Cup, but also the FA Cup, the Champions League and the Premier League, which are more important for us.
"Sometimes I feel sad because people say that Arsène Wenger won't pay for experienced players or old players. If we work together and help each other, and give 100 per cent in training and games as well, we can win this year."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Andrey Arshavin admits that he has found himself in an unfamiliar situation early in the 2012/13 season.
While the Russian forward starred, and scored, in Wednesday night's 6-1 Capital One Cup win over Coventry City, he has had to bide his time for Premier League action - making just one appearance, as a substitute, in the opening-day draw with Sunderland.
He told the Official Matchday Programme: "It's been very difficult for me - my first time in this position, really. Of course I really want to be playing, but I still try to keep in as good a condition as possible and I hope I'll have more chances soon. It was very good to score against Coventry, I enjoyed that."
The 31 year-old's fitness is certainly giving cause for optimism, with his physical performance in training at its highest level during his time at Arsenal.
"My figures are the best ever!" he said. "This summer I felt very good physically, it's true. All of my exercise, especially the endurance side, has gone better than ever. We'll find out how important that's been when I'm playing."
While Arshavin is desperate to be unleashed on top-flight defences once more, he accepts that the Gunners have made a strong start to the season all over the pitch - and pinpoints what he believes the primary factor to have been.
"The difference between this year and last year, in my opinion, is that we are playing more collectively," he said.
"I think we are helping each other more on the pitch defensively - last year it wasn't up to this level. I haven't seen the exact statistics, but I think we're playing a more compact game.
"My aim is to be part of it, to play football and focus on Arsenal. I think that, if I have the chance, I can do well."

You can put video on photobucket as well as photos.I use the premium service for as couple bucks a month.
I'm going to guess that if it exists it does at a cost since videos take up lots of memory. What about something external? You could invite people to view at your discretion, preferred time, etc... Just throwing things out.
Put them on You Tube.
Nobody?It's just I have these fantastic videos I would like to share....

|Topic Review (Newest First)
272/284, 216/228, .454/.480, 112*lsa,
I like the specs on this cam, Id use this grind with a wieand stealth intake and a 650 holley, a good set of 1 5/8 headers and 2 1/2 inch exhaust with flowmasters and it should sound real mean
Invstr396, A 300-36 Holley intake is a high rise/dual pane with a power range of idle-7200. It is the Holley version of an Edelbrock Performer RPM. http://www.holley.com/HiOctn/ProdLin...SM/300-36.html
I would like to try an 8004 Weiand. If I come across one, I probably will. It should work well. In a heavier car.......Probably better than my 300-36.
As far as the 151 cam goes........By todays standards, it's old school at best. It is a single pattern cam with 222* duration @ .050" on both intake and exhaust. It's also ground with slow ramps as the factory does to increase durability. I don't know for sure, but I would guess the duration would be in the 280+* range @ .006". I saw a dyno run years ago where the then new Crane HMV-272-2 kicked the old 151 to the curb from idle to red line. The HMV-272-2 was upgraded to the PowerMax H-272-2. The specs are: 272/284, 216/228, .454/.480, 112*lsa, power range 2000-5000. Nearly the same specs as the solid I run with the exception of the advertised duration. I wanted the short seat timing for the increased vacuum, off idle torque, and fuel mileage. I put 100 miles a day on the truck in the 1500-2000 rpm range. For some this wouldn't be an issue, but with todays fuel prices it is for me.
The Crane cam I listed above is just for reference. Every other cam company has one just like it. Pick your favorite. Comp even has small solid cams that are almost the same as My cam that came from Predator Cams. The Comp is ground with a 110*lsa. One could assume the Comp would make a little more peak power and torque in a narrower band than my cam. My cam with a 114*lsa would have a better idle, higher vacuum, and a wider/flatter power curve. The cam you choose is going to boil down to the exact combo you are running. Weight, trans, gear, intended use, etc.
I do know that if you get everything right, a 305 can be made to run well. I'm running 9.30's in the 1/8. Next years goal is to dip into the 8's and maintain my 21MPG. Dan
|I put a Performer rpm q-jet on a 305 in my pickup along with ported small chamber heads and dual exhaust. Runs good.
RE 305 cheopo buildup
This 305 buildup stuff is getting interesting guys, while 350 smallblocks are getting costlier the 305 is relegated to doorstop status and are practically give away stuff. I also have a free 305 that I am slapping together for a just in case situation and am wondering regarding ohio dans buildup Wouldn,t a dual plane like the 8004 wieand be better than the holley sinle plane?
Also I have a new 327/350 horsepower cam the chevy 151 model I was curious if that would mild out in a 305 if I set it up with a 4 degree advance to save some bottom end? opinions anyone?
Hey, that's a good idea Ohio-Dan to run a mild solid tappet cam on your little 305. You can get more power out of the smaller engine with a more aggressive profile than a hydraulic without sacrificing too much bottom end torque. I was wrestling with the idea of "warming over" my 305 in my 79 Camaro since I already have a stout 350 in my 78 Camaro. I guess the only drawbacks are noise and some extra maintenance but heck my slant six had solids in it and it went the last 100,00 miles of it's life without checking lash!
I think my 305 is going to get "recycled" with a solid cam but I doubt it will go 160,000 miles without even removing the valve covers before the next re-build like I got away with this time LOL.
I run a 300-36 Holley intake on the 305 in my S-10 with no complaints.
As far as cam choice goes, once you clear about 260* of advertised duration you are going to start loosing bottom end power. In the 218* @ .050" range you will start to out run the flow capabilities of the stock heads. Anymore duration and you lost bottom end without being able to regain it in the top.
I run a solid flat tappet cam that specs: 258/270, 219/229, .456/.479, 114*lsa This cam has a smooth idle, pulls 19" of vacuum at 600rpm, and gets 21 MPG with a 200-4R and 3.73 gears. It also pulls hard from idle-5500 rpm. Last trip to the track, the truck consistently ran 76mph in the 1/8 with a best of 76.72mph.
The cam DoubleVision chose is a good one if you are going with Summits cheap line. Power will be in the 1200-4600 range with a smooth idle.Vacuum will be just under 18 1/2" at idle. My fuel mileage was 20.
For reference, I also ran a Crane Blueprint series 300hp/327 cam. Power dropped like a rock at 4200. 19 1/4" vacuum and 21 mpg. Trap speed for the Crane was in the 70mph range. The Summit cam ran a best of 72.67mph in the 1/8. The Summit cam also had the slowest 60ft time by .04sec. Dan
|70 nova
I put a edelbrock performer intake and a 465 lift 224 duration . That 's the cam with a stock convertor. If you don't use that cam dont go over 470 lift . It's will have a little loppy Idle. . Go with 600 Double pumber . You can get that cam and lifter from summit racing. It's a summit brand for about 85$ . Make that 305 run good. 70 Nova.
Look a your cam bearing. If they look good .It will be ok But put that cam in slow and easy. You should have good oil pressure. but you need a stall a 1,900 would work fine for you . You can find them for under 200$ just look around.
|the holley dual plane street dominator will work fine, as for big cam, that`s a no no in a stock engine, especially the small cubic inch 305. I`d recommend the 204/214 duration cam from summit and that`s as big as I`d go. it won`t have a lope, but it will give it more low end torque and better acceleration. if you go with a larger cam, sure it might sound fine at idle, but you`ll get your doors blown off by ricers.
Cam and Intake Manifold for a Chevy 305?
Hi. I recently re-built a 305. i used stock size parts, and the stock heads. i was wondering if a Holley Street Dominator Intake would work good on my engine. also, i was also wondering if you guys know of a big cam that would work in my engine(preferably from summit racing). i love the sound of a big cam. lol. Thanks.
PS: i still have the stock stall converter in it.

NEW ROCHELLE, N.Y. - Iona senior Sean Armand had a game-high 32 points on the power of nine 3-point field goals and junior Tre Bowman came off the bench to add 24 points and six rebounds as the host Gaels defeated Canisius 97-87 Sunday afternoon in the Hynes Athletic Center. The win was Iona's fifth straight and moved the team to 11-6 overall and 5-1 in MAAC games, while the Golden Griffins slipped to 10-7 overall and 3-3 in league action.
Canisius senior Harold Washington scored a season-high 26 points in the loss for the Griffs, which shot 50 percent from the field, 42.9 percent from 3-point land and 84.6 percent from the free-throw line in the loss. Junior Billy Baron posted his third double-double of the season with 20 points and 11 assists, while fellow junior Jordan Heath scored 13 points to go with four rebounds and two steals. Junior Chris Manhertz, who entered the game ranked second in the MAAC in rebounding average, pulled down a game-high 14 rebounds to go with seven points and two blocked shots.
As a team, Iona made 16 3-point field goals in the victory, led by Armand's game-high nine from long range. The MAAC's leader in 3-pointers made per game, Armand finished the day by going 11-for-18 from the field and 9-for-15 from behind the arc. Bowman was 8-for-13 from the floor, 2-for-4 from 3-point land and 6-for-6 from the free-throw line in 32 minutes. David Laury added 13 points for the Gaels and A.J. English scored 10 points, as Iona shot 53.8 percent from the field, 48.5 percent from 3-point land and 61.1 percent from the foul line.
"Give those guys credit, they made 16 threes today and they all made big-time shots when they needed them," Canisius head coach Jim Baron said. "Iona took us off the dribble and they made shots. That's an athletic team there. We went zone, they hit threes. We went man, they drove to the basket. We have to defend better and we need to rebound with two hands again."
The Griffs led 49-47 at halftime after the Blue and Gold shot 52.9 percent from the field and 46.7 percent from 3-point land in the game's first 20 minutes. In the opening moments of the second half, Armand got hot from long range, as he hit two treys in the first 2:52 to give the Gaels a six-point lead at 55-49. Canisius was able to regain the lead at 58-57 with 15:09 left in the game after Washington hit a pair of free-throws, but Iona answered with back-to-back 3-pointers by English and Armand to take a five-point hold at 63-58 with 14:33 left in the contest. Canisius junior Reggie Groves drilled a 3-pointer from the left wing on the Griffs' next possession to make the score 63-61 with 13:40 left to play, but the Gaels got away for good on the power of an 11-2 run over the next 1:29, capped by a 3-pointer by English from the far corner.
The Blue and Gold made a run at Iona and made it a six-point contest on a 3-point field goal by Washington and a bucket from senior Freddy Asprilla, but two treys by Armand and a dunk by Bowman pushed Iona's hold to 14 at 82-68 with 8:05 left to play. A 3-pointer from Baron with 2:02 left in the game made the score 93-85, but the Gaels closed out the game with two free-throws from senior Lamont Jones and a lay-up by English to seal the victory for the home team.
Jones, who entered the game ranked third in the nation in scoring average, posted seven points and five assists for the Gaels in the win after he got into early four trouble. Canisius senior Isaac Sosa had nine points in the loss for the Blue and Gold, while Groves and sophomore Josiah Heath scored five points each. Asprilla ended the day with four boards for the Griffs, as both teams were credited with 33 rebounds each.
Canisius will return home on Thursday, Jan. 17, when the Griffs host Manhattan. Game time in the Koessler Athletic Center on "Pack the KAC" night is set for 7 p.m.
Game Notes: This was the 59th all-time meeting between these two schools, with Iona leading the series 32-27... The Gaels have now won five of the last six and nine of the last 12 meetings with the Griffs... The two teams entered the game ranked top-10 nationally in 3-point field goals per game, and the Griffs and Gaels combined for 28 3-pointers on the day, with Canisius knocking down 12 against Iona's 16... Canisius is now 8-3 on the year when leading at halftime, but two of those losses have come in the team's last two games... The 87 points are the most for Canisius in a loss this season, and the team has now scored 80-plus points in six games, the most for the team since 2005-06... Washington's 26 points gives him 20 or more points in a game 13 times in his career... Baron is averaging 7.0 assists per game in the team's first six MAAC games of the season... All three of Baron's career double-doubles have come in MAAC games this season... Manhertz, who started the day averaging a MAAC-best 13.2 rebounds per game in five previous MAAC contests this season, had double-digit rebounds for the fourth-straight game... Canisius wore its gold alternate uniforms for the first time this year.

i have not done a TBH so this may be a stupid questions, but isn't there to much room in those things for cold winters? i always wondered about that.
Do you think it is harder for the cluster to move to honey stores in the winter in a TBH since it is laid out in a horizontal fashion instead of a vertical one?
BjornBee, Did you do a mite check on the TBH hive? If you did can you post the results.

While I'm waiting for rubber to set on my Tie Pilot project I decided to go on to the next , I took a cast of an MK-2 Navy Talker Helmet from a poorly made Vac mold and started the job of building it into an Imperial Gunner .
While I'm dong this build the plan is to create a Fantastic looking Fiber Glass Helmet along with build Vac Molds at the same time.
So here we go with the first set of pictures.
You can see the impression of the original metal trim that went around the helmet that gave me a great reference for trimming it to shape , I'm looking at photos tonight to refine the templates for the jaw so in the next few days the sculpt can get going .

John Patten is a Bundjalung / Yorta Yorta man on his father's side, and a descendant of First Fleet convicts via his mother. An educator and artist, he takes great joy in sharing knowledge with visitors to Bunjilaka Aboriginal Cultural Centre.
In preparation for an upcoming series of cultural workshops to be held at Bunjilaka Aboriginal Cultural Centre at Melbourne Museum, I recently ventured into the field with John Duggan to collect a range of materials required to run the workshops.

John is a Gamilaroi man and the Assistant Collections Manager for Australian Collections in MV's Humanities Department. Together we travelled to south western Victoria to collect flint for making traditional stone knapped spear points and blades, Pomaderris shafts for the production of spears, Xanthorrhoea (Grass Tree) resin for making a traditional glue, and several varieties of timber for carving traditional tools and weapons, including shields, digging sticks, clubs and boomerangs.

During our journey we encountered a wide variety of flora and fauna, ranging from herds of emus and large mobs of kangaroos, to wombats and echidna. We also facilitated a special intervention, where John Duggan removed a dozen or more bush ticks from the body of a Shingleback lizard. Traditional food and medicinal plants that we encountered included Pig Face, Kangaroo Apple, Salt Bush and Red Fruit Saw Sedge.

Causes and Symptoms of Back Pain
Causes and Symptoms of Neck Pain
Hi, I am facing pain since long time and its a long nerve that runs from my lower back down to my feet. When it becomes inflamed, it cause pain anywhere in the back of my legs, usually in the hamstrings while sitting and driving for periods of time. How to cure? Please help.
Hi. From 3-4 days I am getting pain in my ankle. While I play any game it get unbearable pain in my leg. Please give your suggestion.
Lack of proper mobility due to stiffness and significant pain can be due to a number of bone and joint problems. Osteoarthritis, arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, as well as injuries, trauma and inflammation of the knees are only some of the reasons why a patient may be experiencing joint pain. Apart from rest and medication, various surgical procedures may be considered as an option for particularly severe cases. Partial knee replacement surgery is one such option. So, here are the five questions that you must ask an orthopaedic specialist about partial knee replacement surgery.
- What is partial knee replacement surgery: This kind of surgery usually seeks only to replace the damaged part of the knee where the movements of the patient get restricted to a great degree. With the help of this surgery, the orthopaedic surgeon can replace the medial or inner part of the knee; or the lateral or outer part of the knee. When the surgeon conducts a surgery to replace the entire knee, this is called knee replacement.
- How to prepare for the procedure: The doctor will advise you to stay away from any medication and dietary supplements that may hinder the work of the anaesthesia that will be administered before the surgery. Before the surgery, the orthopaedic specialist will understand your medical history.
- What is the procedure: The surgical procedure for partial knee replacement surgery usually involves keeping the knee in a bent position so that all the joint surfaces are well exposed. The surgeon will start by making an incision that is about six to ten inches in length, before removing the knee cap in order to remove the joint surfaces that have faced damage. Once this has been done, the surgeon will attach artificial joint pieces and close the knee. Then, the doctor will bend and rotate to test for balance and proper functioning of the knee. This procedure usually takes close to two hours.
- How long does recovery take: The recovery process usually takes about three to four weeks following the surgery.
- What to do after the surgery: Pain medication will help the patient in coping with the initial discomfort and after effects of the surgery. Right after the surgery, the patient will be shown exercises before he or she is put onto a graduated walking program where walking indoors and then outdoors will be practiced. The patient will be required to take on physiotherapy for four to six months following this procedure so as to recover in a better manner and have a better functioning knee.
Get a complete check-up done in case you are facing persistent knee problems.
Hello, my leg get pain because it's cuts on its leg And I think I use tetanus injection right or wrong?
Having severe pain in cervical neck which is travelling from neck to back and shoulder. I am 23 year old. Please suggest Thanks and Regards Zainab.

Hi Sir, I'm Santosh 28 yrs, I feel always tingling sensation in hands & legs below the knee. Please suggest me what should I do.
Hi Doctor, both my legs, from knee to toes pains allot while sleeping. Also my left knee produces crackling sound when I straighten it after bending. I am 20 year old female.
The various movements of the body are enabled by the way the bones work with each other and allow for various movements. You cannot perform a single movement without the coordination of the various joints and bones. It is also for the same reason that joint pains are so common. Accidents, sports injuries, play area injuries, and general ageing are some of the causes that can result in joint pain. There are definitely ways to treat them, but at the same time, preventing them also can be helpful. Read on to know some of the ways to prevent and manage joint pains.
Precautionary measure: For children, ensure they are playing under the supervision of an adult and are wearing sufficient protective gear in the form of helmets, wrist/elbow guards, etc. The same goes for athletes who are prone to injuries. It is always prudent to know your physical limits and not stretch your body constantly. This will go a long way in reducing injuries. Always keep a first-aid kit in your sports bag so that you can manage the pain at the earliest.
If prevention does not work, and injuries do happen, some of the ways to manage them are outlined below.
- Cryotherapy/ice therapy: By reducing the blood flow to the affected joint, ice helps in reducing the pain and swelling, which are usually the prominent symptoms of any joint injury. Using an ice pack for 15 to 20 minutes every hour is greatly useful in reducing the pain. This can be continued for the next few days until the pain stops. Avoid ice burns by not applying ice directly on the skin; instead, wrap it in a towel or a soft cotton cloth.
- Oil massages: Natural oils can be used to massage the affected joints which also greatly reduce pain. Oils which contain menthol or give a topical soothing effect are highly recommended. If you are unable to do it at home, seek professional help for the same.
- Hydrotherapy: Warm baths with salts added for extra benefit can provide soothing relief from joint pains. Try these before going to bed to also get good sleep.
- Herbal mixes: Tea bags and other herbal mixes can also be used to relieve joint pains. These may work for some and may not work for others. As these are external applications, you can give it a try.
- Immobilise the area: The affected joint should be immobilised completely or partially, depending on the extent of damage.
- Physiotherapy: While initially the joint needs to be rested, getting into a physical exercise routine with inputs from a physiotherapist is very essential to avoid long-term immobility.
- Medications: Non-steroidal pain killers are another proven method to manage joint pains. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult a General Physician.

However, he feels encouraged by developments in Iraq over the past year. His optimism was seconded by General Barney White-Spunnder who believes the situation in Basra is "getting better all the time." However, Lord Boyce, Britain's senior military officeer at the time the war began expressed "dismay" at what subsequently happened and blamed it on the inept American "de-Ba'athification" program which disbanded the Iraq army.
Jonathan Powell, chief of staff for Tony Blair, was told by General Richard Dannatt in October, 2006, he questioned the usefulness of Britain's continuing military presence in Iraq. He said Britain should withdraw "soon" and noted planning for the postwar phase was "poor."
It is strange for a foreign minister to claim the war was a remarkable victory but the postwar phase just didn't add up right. The purpose of the war in Iraq, according to President Bush, was to create a stable, democratic nation. If the goal was not accomplished then the war was not remarkable at all, but a failure.

His status for return to basketball competition is day-to-day.
Barber, a McDonald's All-American last year out of Newport News, Va., is being held out of practice and is being evaluated under NC State's concussion protocol within the supervision of the school's athletic training staff and team physicians.
The injury occurred during a loose-ball scramble on Tuesday, near the end of the team's first official workout. He collided with sophomore teammate T.J. Warren, who came away from the play without injury.
Barber, widely regarded as one of the top point guards in the 2013 class, is expected to be a key contributor to the Wolfpack this season. NC State will update his status pending the results of his ongoing concussion testing.

'"I need to play with an edge, but I have to make sure I don't cross that edge," he said Tuesday. "With all the skill Buffalo has, I think they need some grit and definitely some people that are hard to play against to give those skilled guys some room. I feel like I can fill that job, and hopefully, I can do it sooner than later."'

text: Most of the criteria for the Performance/Execution, Choreography, and Interpretation components draw on concepts central to the performing arts, especially music and dance. Many people who like to watch figure skating primarily for its aesthetic qualities, including a number of knowledgeable fans here at FSU, also have backgrounds in the arts that give them insight into effective ways to evaluate performances. I believe that the people who wrote the PCS criteria for these components also had outside knowledge beyond just their skating backgrounds. But many judges do not, so all they have learned is what the judge training provides them. Can we draw on the expertise of posters here to brainstorm improvements we'd like to see in the judging of these components? *How could the criteria be rewritten or expanded on to help judges focus on the important aspects of performance, choreography, and interpretation without too much overlap with each other and without tieing these components directly to the skating skills? Even if only hypothetically, just for fun let's imagine that the ISU decided to create a separate "artistic judging appointment" only for these three components, which would require a separate training track from the technical judging track that allows one to judge GOEs and Skating Skills and Transitions (or a general judging track for lower-level events without split panels). (The logistics of how this could happen affordably worldwide is another question we don't need to worry about for now.) *What kind of music and dance knowledge should a skating judge, or skater who wishes to become a judge, already possess before being accepted into the artistic judge training? *What kind of skating knowledge should a nonskater with outside arts expertise already possess before being accepted into the artistic judge training? *What might this training consist of, to get everyone on the same page as much as possible, with as high a level of shared knowledge and standards as possible?

Taking the stage for the first time, "Dances and Airs" will showcase the new Baroque Chamber Orchestra. A collaboration between the University of St. Thomas Music Preparatory School and Music Department, the performance is at 7:30 p.m. on Nov. 29 in Cullen Hall, 4001 Mt. Vernon.
The Baroque Chamber Orchestra will perform works by J.S. Bach, George Frideric Handel, Georg Muffat, Jean-Philippe Rameau, Antonio Vivaldi and Astor Piazzolla. Conductor and violinist Zachary Carrettin will direct the group.
"I am thrilled we are the first student orchestra in Houston to be utilizing baroque-period bows," Carrettin said. "Every musician in the ensemble now owns such a bow. We will continue to explore the baroque and classical period equipment next semester as we venture on to the symphonic works of Haydn and Mozart."
Music Preparatory School Director Paul Krystofiak said the inaugural performance is a combined group of musicians from the University Music Department and core of strong pre-college musicians.
"Most students are studying with outstanding instructors from the preparatory school or have attended summer music institutes sponsored by MPS," Krystofiak said. "Maestro Zachary Carrettin has taken this initiative to the next level. We are very excited to bring these students together for rehearsals."
The event is free and open to the public. For more information, contact Ann Candler Harlan at 713-525-3159 or email@example.com.

Green Bay's Cox Picks Up Player of the Week Honors
By: Ryan Hartwig (@RyanHartwig)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – After going 4-0 in singles and doubles action and leading his team to a pair of conference road victories over the weekend, Green Bay men's tennis senior Craig Cox (Surrey, England) was selected as the Horizon League Co-Player of the Week on Tuesday along with Cleveland State's Ali Shabib. It marks the second weekly award of Cox's career.
Cox won twice at No. 1 doubles and picked up singles wins at the No. 2 and No. 3 spots as the Phoenix defeated Valparaiso 6-1 on Friday and UIC 6-1 on Saturday to improve to 12-6 overall and 2-0 in Horizon League play.
Against the Crusaders on Friday, the Phoenix senior paired up with classmate Erik Finkenbrink (Duelmen, Germany) for an exciting 8-7 (4) doubles victory before taking down Chris Baum 6-2, 7-6 (5) at No. 2 singles. Cox and Finkenbrink combined again to clinch the doubles point at UIC on Saturday, beating Alexander Raa and Isaac Lloveras 9-7 in the No. 1 slot. Cox then rolled past the Flames' Christopher Cole 6-0, 6-0 at No. 3 singles.
The Phoenix next begins a stretch of three straight matches at home, beginning with a contest against Youngstown State on Saturday, April 6 at 1 p.m. at Western Racquet and Fitness.

Our entire line of Everything Shadows is being retired in order to make room for new & exciting products. Read all about it here!
When the most spectacular sights in the 'verse are bright moons, flaming suns, and sparkly stars, it's no wonder that the word of choice to describe, well, wonder, would be "Shiny!". Apply the term to your spaceship or your eye shadow - either way it does the trick, just like this shimmery gold. Whether you choose to put it on your eyes, lips, cheeks, nails or hair, your bound to be the shiniest person there ever was!
Want the full Browncoats Collection? Check it out here.
Mica, Titanium Dioxide, Tin Oxide, Iron Oxide, Carnauba Wax, Magnesium Myristrate
Everything Shadow Pro-Tips:
- Applied over a white primer you can really make these colors pop!
- When applying loose pigments you don't wipe/swipe/brush them on like you would a pressed powder. Instead you should TAP them into the area where you want your color to be! Loose pigments have a lot more application options but are definitely a different animal from standard, pressed powders.
- When traveling, to minimize your Everything Shadows "leaking":
- make sure to keep them in one of our handy dandy collection canisters that seals them off from the rest of your clothes/makeup/etc.
- take a small piece of masking tape and run it along the edge of the canister. Not only will this keep the lids from shifting in transit, but it will also supply you with a piece of scotch tape that can be used for evening out eyeliner or picking up glitter/pigment fallout later!
Please note: Everything Shadows are packed by weight, though some ingredients may settle a bit during shipment, giving the appearance of being less full.
Is your makeup cruelty free?
Behind the scenes, the Nerd Misfits are actually run by their real-life aristocats. As such, we do not test on animals or use any ingredients that have been tested on animals. All of the Espionage products are cruelty free and bursting with furbaby appreciation. When time allows between projects, we continue to work through the various pieces of the long, but certainly worthwhile process of becoming Leaping Bunny certified. Until then, we are Leaping Kitty certified.
(Back to top)
Are they vegan?
We most certainly do offer a range of vegan-friendly colors! For your convenience, the description on each color will clearly list if that item is vegan/non-vegan.
Friendly tip from Office Mechagodzilla: If the color in question contains "Carmine" then it is not vegan-friendly. (Yes, he's sociable from time to time.)
(Back to top)
Are they gluten free?
Yup! All of the Espionage "Everything Shadows" are gluten free and produced in a gluten free lab. Just ask Office Mechagodzilla. He knows.
(Back to top)
Are they eye safe?
Why, I do declare that they are! All of our Everything Shadows are formulated to be safe for your pretty peepers! There are a handful of colors that are not approved for lip application. This is noted within each product description; it will be marked as either Lips/Not for Lips.
(Back to top)
What are some of the uses?
Our Everything Shadows can be used on ALL THE THINGS!!! We like to think outside of the box, so let us run you through a small pinch of the possibilities. Use them as eyeshadow (SURPRISE!!!), eyeliner, highlighter, contour, brow filler, lip stain, temporary hair color, and even paint with them! GASP! It's true. Would we lie to you? Check it out HERE.
(Back to top)
Any pro tips?
Office Mechagodzilla, you going to weigh in on this? No?
Well, okay. We understand that application takes perfecting (even without laser beams for eyes), so here are some videos and tutorials to help you along the way: Makeup Marvels and Nerd Makeup Pro Tips peeled directly from our Nerd Misfit YouTube channel! Give 'em a peek!

How do I apply the glitter as a liner or shadow?

Get this amazing shade before it is gone, Captain tight pants would approve!
The name describes it perfectly! It's the perfect orangey shiny color to top off every shiny new hat look!


text: CB has received that big payday he always wanted. Or, maybe not. Billups probably wanted more money than he signed for with the Pistons, however, his agents` phone wasn`t ringing off the hook with offers during the offseason. Did he feel slighted by the non-offers? Or did he understand it was just business? We have already heard that Mr. Big Shot is bored with the preseason; so, can we expect him to bring it for the entire regular season? With the injury to Stuckey to start the season CB will be called upon to lead the Pistons and log heavy minutes. I am convinced of the heavy minutes until Flip proves otherwise. Will Billups lead this team as he should and earn his big salary? Or will he be bored halfway through the season then have a terrible postseason? I guess what I am trying to determine is: what Chauncey Billups will we see this year? The Finals MVP and All Star? Or the average PG who has a few great games?

'University of Minnesota hockey sophomore center Thomas Vanek was back from Austria and lifting weights with teammates this week, but word is the Buffalo Sabres are preparing to offer him whatever it will take to sign him. Chances remain strong that he'll end up turning professional. Classes at Minnesota begin Sept. 7.'
Archives for August 2004
Fan loyalty plays into Vikings bidding
Wheat Kings' Finn checks in
'Vanek, who was drafted fifth overall by the Buffalo Sabres in 2003, is reportedly considering leaving school to play junior in an effort to become an NHL free agent if the Sabres don't sign him. "There's nothing definitive with his situation," said McCrimmon, who drafted Vanek in the 2001 Import Draft and still holds his rights on a special college list. "He remains in discussions with Buffalo and I really don't know any more than that."'
Sabres face deadline to re-sign D Kalinin
'Sabres general manager Darcy Regier said Friday the two sides held talks earlier in the day, and that negotiations are scheduled to continue through the weekend.'
Kalinin has Russian pact, forcing a deadline for Sabres
'The Buffalo Sabres have six days to sign defenseman Dmitri Kalinin to a long-term pact or they will lose him to a Russian club for the upcoming season.'
Five Sabres Prepare for the Cup
'The 2004 World Cup of Hockey is expected to be one of the most exciting international hockey tournaments in history. Eight hockey-playing nations featuring 150 NHL players, will compete in the two-week tournament that runs from August 30 through September 14, 2004.'
Peters polishing pugilistic skills
'"I never hurt so many guys as I did last year," said Peters, who led the Sabres in penalty minutes with 151 in just 42 games. "I don't mean injuring them, but as far as the power of my punch and learning to throw a proper punch. "Before I'd throw a haymaker, now it's short and accurate."'
Beyond the Boards… Daniel Briere
'…but he found the time to sit down with Sabres.com to discuss some of the more personal aspects of his life.'
2003-04 A Season in Review
Relive all the excitement of last season with "2003-04 A Season in Review". This six-part DVD highlights the Sabres entire 2003-04 season.
Biron awarded $2.8 million deal; Sabres re-sign Dumont, Brown
'"I think I got a lot out of it. It wasn't a slap across the face,'' Biron said. "It's time for me to take the bull by the horns and take this group of guys to the playoffs.'''
Sabres re-sign F Dumont, D Brown; settle with G Biron
'"J.P. provided us with solid play and leadership throughout last season," Sabres general manager Darcy Regier said. "He is a tremendous competitor and has developed into a solid NHL forward at both ends of the ice."'
Buffalo re-signs two; settles with Biron
'"Marty had a strong finish to last season and we look for him to solidify into a top NHL netminder," Regier added. "He has experience as a starter in the NHL and we look forward to his continued development with our organization."'
Sabres Sign Defenseman Brad Brown
"Brad came in and right away supplied us with a physical presence and stability," said Buffalo Sabres General Manager Darcy Regier. "He is a strong and reliable defenseman and it will be great to have him on the backline for a full season."
Biron Signs One-Year Deal
"Marty had a strong finish to last season and we look for him to solidify into a top NHL netminder," said Buffalo Sabres General Manager Darcy Regier. "He has experience as a starter in the NHL and we look forward to his continued development with our organization."
Sabres Sign JP Dumont
"J.P. provided us with solid play and leadership throughout last season," Buffalo Sabres General Manager Darcy Regier said. "He is a tremendous competitor and has developed into a solid NHL forward at both ends of the ice."
Sabres Avoid Arbitration With Hecht
'Hecht and the team agreed to terms on a one-year contract earlier this morning, avoiding an arbitration hearing which had been scheduled to take place on Sunday.'

Production speed for trimming may sound contradictory to some, but it's not–speed is good. The trick is setting up a good cut room, measuring properly, and coping inside corners. Here's how we make trim fly.
Step 1: Cut Room & Material Organization.
Cut Room. I set up a cut room in as central a location inside the house as possible. The longest rooms (usually the dining/living room on the first floor; the master bedroom on the second) are best. I have three workstations in the cut room: miter saw, table saw, and work table. The work table has a portable router table, sanders, biscuit joiner, clamps, and supplies for unique situations where detailing individual pieces is required. I swipe a concept from kitchen design and try to set up the workstations in a "work triangle" to create a smart, sensible workflow.
Material Organization. The key to smart organization is to separate all the casing, sill, base, etc., into sections. If you can see it and reach it, you don't waste time looking and sifting. For me, a Baker scaffold or a small folding scaffold works great as a trim rack, makes the whole package mobile (this is good for smaller spaces), and keeps everything off the floor, eliminating damage.
Step 2: Protocol
The key to getting out of the blocks quickly is to know the order of operations and follow it throughout the house. Jamming through all the steps–doors, windows, base, chair, picture rail, crown, in that order–creates momentum and cuts down on mistakes.
Divide and Conquer. Two-person crews work best for me, though this system works great for solo operators, too. First, I install and case the doors, then set window sills and case the windows. This creates all the control points from which to pull the rest of the measurements for all other trim (except crown). After setting the doors, a divide-and-conquer approach works best: One person trims them while the other sets window sills and cases the windows. With this trim in place, I'm ready to measure for the rest of the molding in the room–in one shot.
Step 3: Measuring and Cutting
Measure Once. I sketch the room, then measure my way around clockwise. I start at the entry door and run my tape from the casing to whatever's next, be it a drywall corner (inside or outside) or another piece of casing. I do this until I work my way back to the entry door. I record each measurement as I go on a block or clipboard before heading back to the cut room to cut all the pieces I just measured. And, I do it at each trim level or height (base, chair, etc.) because drywall corners are never really straight.
Cut Once. This system is predicated on the fact that my carpenters and I can cope our inside corners. This is important. While this system works for crews who miter their inside corners, miter joints are inferior; they're hard to get right and often open up. In other words, if you don't know how to dead-end left/cope right correctly, learn how. It'll create a superior product for your customers and, in the long run, is much easier than mitering. (Dead-end refers to the square cut left un-coped that butts into a corner.)
At the saw, I pull all measurements from the dead-end left (Note: you can dead-end and cope any side of the trim you want; I cope the right side because I'm right-handed.) Cut test pieces to determine exactly how to dial in your cope on the finished pieces. Often on detailed profiles (chair, crown, and picture rail), you have to clip a bit of the profile off so the moldings mate properly. And remember, the measurements you took represent the back-side measurements of the trim pieces, so as you tweak the cope–don't change the long-point of the piece or you'll come up short.
Step 4: Installation
I install the trim counterclockwise in the room–the opposite direction from which I measure. This means that I can get a dead-end in place, then lay a cope right over it when I install the next piece. I start with low work and move up (after the doors and windows are set and cased). I install all the base molding throughout an entire floor before moving on to chair rail, which enables me to clear the room if we need ladders or staging for picture rail and crown. Completing full steps like this generates momentum and cuts down on mistakes that can result from making your mind change gears between installing base to hanging crown. Plus, it helps empty out the cut room in big chunks. Finally, I work one floor at a time, moving the cut station as I finish a floor.

Posted by Stephen Mann on December 4, 2012
After the success of his previous blogs (including The ABC Of ICT — The Top 10 People Issues), Paul Wilkinson of GamingWorks returns with a somewhat tongue-in-cheek look at IT, IT service management (ITSM), IT service delivery, and this "IT end user thing" some people call a "customer."
I hope that it makes you smile but, more importantly, I hope that it makes you act. I'll leave it to Paul . . .
"IT's not about the IT?" Really?
I'm always surprised — no, amazed — in fact staggered. That's it, literally staggered, at how poor "we in IT" are at being customer and service focused. Ever since I passed my ITIL v1 exam I have been aware that ITIL (the ITSM best practice framework) has always, always, been about customers and service. David Wheeldon taught me this when I was a "technogeek" who thought that end users were something dangerous and contagious.
I used to think that we should outsource the business, as they got in the way of IT and were simply annoying. David taught me that end users were human after all, just like us, and it was our job to provide services and value to them. I wasn't convinced initially, but I was willing to be open to the idea.
That was more than 20 years ago, and while we have had ITIL in all its variants for more than 25 years, we still score badly on the customer-focused side of things.
Why does IT struggle with the concept of customers?

By DON COGGER Star Staff Writer
Two-thirds of Montana's congressional delegation made a quick stop in Miles City Wednesday, participating in a roundtable discussion at Miles City Community College.
U.S. Sens. John Walsh and Jon Tester joined a handful of community members to discuss issues facing eastern Montana. In the talk hosted by the Miles City Area Chamber of Commerce, topics ranged from education funding to flood plain insurance to the rocky implementation of Obamacare, with both senators answering questions and taking notes throughout the hour-long meeting. Chamber Executive Director John Laney said he was pleased with the panel assembled as well as the concerns they raised.
"The senators' staff asked us to come up with a cross-section of people to talk to about local and national issues as it pertains to the area," Laney said. "I thought the people in the panel did a spectacular job. They were spot-on with the reasons they were there. It was a great mix.
"When you start thinking about our problems, it's funny how they mirror the national problems," he said. "It puts it more into their ballpark, the things those guys are sitting around hashing out are our problems too, and those are the guys we put there to fix them. When it's presented to them like it was Wednesday night, they have to sit up and take notice."
Walsh, sworn in just two weeks ago as Sen. Max Baucus' replacement, said the information shared at the meeting will go far in giving him the groundwork to settle into his new post.
"There are a lot of important issues out there that have to be covered," Walsh said. "A lot of theses issues affect communities all across the state of Montana. That's what Sen. Tester and I are doing traveling around the state of Montana, more of a listening tour to find out issues and concerns so that when we're back in Washington, D.C. when we make votes or introduce legislation, we take the input from Montanans."
Once the information from the listening tour is disseminated, Walsh said he and Tester will sit down to discuss the most effective way to move forward in a way benefitting all Montanans. Though new to the post, Walsh isn't content to ease into the job.
"That's one thing I really want to do in Washington, is get things done," he said. "I don't want to go back there and have to worry about this being an election year, or it's an issue we don't want to discuss during an election year. I want to go back and focus on solving some problems that the citizens of Montana are concerned about."
Tester, recently named chairman of the Senate Indian Affairs Committee, echoed Walsh's sentiment about the importance of these discussions in keeping Montana issues at the forefront while in Washington, D.C.
"We have to flesh these issues out, we have to make them work," Tester said. "There are issues in the Affordable Health Care Act, we got to make it work, we got to fix it. We got to make it so it works for regular folks and doesn't bust the economy. I still think that moving forward it's going to do some positive things for health care and working families and small businesses, but we have a ways to go."
Tester also reiterated his commitment to education, as well as his support of the controversial Keystone XL Pipeline project. Asked if he thought the project, which would provide jobs in eastern Montana, would ever come to fruition, Tester said he remains cautiously optimistic.
"My crystal ball is always fuzzy. I thought after the election he'd (President Obama) approve it," Tester said. "I thought it was going to be approved 15 months ago, and it still isn't approved. It's kind of crazy, from my perspective, but bottom line is, we are where we are. We're going to keep putting pressure on. I still think it's the right thing to do. It's got to be done right, property rights have to be respected, it has to be built safely. We're going to keep pushing."
Jason Strouf, owner of Main Street Business Services, Inc. in Miles City, served as a panel member at the meeting. He praised the forum and the discussion, and was appreciative the senators took the time to visit.
"The first step in the process is getting out into the communities you are representing, take questions, and listen to their feedback; otherwise it's really easy to start losing touch with your constituents," Strouf said. "I also understand time is kind of a prime commodity, and it takes time to get out to those different areas. The meeting was only an hour, but it was a very productive use of 60 minutes. It was a good opportunity to meet the new senator also."

Global finance leaders have warned a US debt default would be "utterly catastrophic", as some analysts flagged a new era of US political dysfunction that could expose the world's largest economy to increased instability.
Just days before the Thursday deadline to lift the US government's $US16.7 trillion debt ceiling, some of the world's top bankers said a default on debt obligations would be too terrible to contemplate and would have dire consequences on the global economy.
"World leaders are saying, 'Get on with it and get this resolved. It's not just about you'," JBWere executive director Mike Kendall said.
"This isn't the time to be tap dancing to the mid-term elections in the US. This affects everyone."
Federal Treasurer Joe Hockey said on the sidelines of World Bank and International Monetary Fund meetings in Washington at the weekend that he was confident of a political resolution, although markets were "in for a continuing volatile period".
Financial markets rallied across the board on Friday as US politicians signalled a willingness to push back the debt ceiling deadline as a debate over the budget continued. But talks between the White House and House Republicans broke down as the US entered a long weekend, raising the prospects of another week of market volatility.
"There isn't life beyond default," Deutsche Bank chief executive Anshu Jain cautioned during a finance conference in Washington DC.
''This would be a very rapidly spreading, fatal disease … you're now talking about the underpinnings of finance,'' Mr Jain said, describing a default as ''utterly catastrophic''.
JPMorgan chief executive Jamie Dimon said banks had already spent ''huge amounts'' of money preparing for a default that could damage the post-financial crisis economic recovery.
''It would ripple through the global economy in a way you couldn't possibly understand,'' Mr Dimon said. ''We need global growth … We are on the verge of getting it. Please let's not shoot ourselves in the foot.''
Among fallout from the US government shutdown and default fears is a possible delay in the US Federal Reserve's plans to wind back its $US85 billion-a-month bond-buying program.
This in turn would see the Australian dollar remain at elevated levels against its US counterpart.
The Australian dollar is trading near four-month highs, last trading at US94.68¢. Australian government long-term bonds have been sold off in recent days but are expected to emerge as a safe haven if a debt ceiling deal is not reached.
Despite the dire warnings and nervousness among investors, financial markets have, until now, held their nerve in the face of a possible default. Market strategists argued while the fear of default was real, it appeared unlikely even as the deadline loomed.
The Australian sharemarket has remained fairly resilient, with investors boosted by a lift in business confidence following the federal election.
Even so, some economists warned that the game of political brinkmanship signalled longer-term risks for the US economy.
''More worrisome is the chronic dysfunction in the policy decision-making process that these developments reveal,'' Citi analysts, including chief US economist Robert DiClemente, said in a note.
''With larger structural deficits only a few years away and the public debt burden already very high, the inability to make timely policy choices may provide the last ingredient in a potentially toxic brew.''
ANZ chief economist for Australia Ivan Colhoun said the key for the US in exiting its cycle of structural deficits and debt struggles was a strong economic recovery.
''The prescription has to be that you try and get growth,'' Mr Colhoun said. ''Growth helps to fix budget deficits, which help to reduce debt.
''It's definitely not what you want to see continuing. I still believe in common sense, and the commonsense solution is for this [political impasse] not to escalate.''

Zeal and Enthusiasm Described in the Qur'an
The Way to Overcome Lack
"Has the time not come for those who have believed that their hearts should become humbly submissive at the remembrance of Allah and what has come down of the truth? And let them not be like those who were given the Scripture before, and a long period passed over them, so their hearts hardened; and many of them are defiantly disobedient.""we not with you?"133
In another verse also Allah warns about the hardening of hearts:
"Then your hearts became hardened after that, being like stones or even harder. For indeed, there are stones from which rivers burst forth, and there are some of them that split open and water comes out, and there are some of them that fall down for fear of Allah. And Allah is not unaware of what you do."we not with you?134
In the above verse Allah has given an example of stones from which water emerges and others that crash down from fear of Him. Fear of Allah, as this example reveals, will render unenthusiastic people zealous and lead them to adopt the good values enabling them to compete in righteousness for the sake of Allah.

After a months time I finally am back online. I lost both computers as well as the house but thru goods friends I have a temporary home and a new laptop which I am having fun learning how to use. Intermittently I was able to get online w/ my wifes kindle but the wifi signals came and went. Anyway, we basically lost everything in the house except the decorations and my hunting equipment. I did quite a bit of woodworking and had a nice little mancave/workshop but everything was covered with 38" of water.
