ahh nice subject challenging... and a little bit yucky..
bloody... one of the sources of my headache
(its a better source of headache than algebra)
thats all...
currently making my slam book.. go to hell,.. enemies.. :PPP
lots of memorizations...
Errare humanum est
I did well in both Bio and Chem, but I preferred Biology more. The only dissection we did was on a sheep heart and something my teacher accidently ran over (and killed). << The sheep heart was the worst...the dissection wasn't so bad, but it wasn't cleaned up properly afterwards. The next day the classroom smelled so bad, you could hear everyone gagging and tryingnot to hurl.
HELL as always
Bio isnt that great and chem seems fun (:
this avii is like staying foreverr
In Bio we dissected chicken wings and smoked a moose heart which we later got to eat.
Of the two chem was my fav: It was really fun and our teacher accidently made an explotion so big there's still (years afterwards) a huge black hole in the ceiling above the his desk The entire classroom shook and the firealarm went off.
But Electricity was confusing....
Peace is hollow.
well it made me drool and out teacher is very strict.... somehow.... its nice
currently making my slam book.. go to hell,.. enemies.. :PPP
i hate chemistry..i always end up failing my quizzes there because i cannot remember all the formulas.
music makes me loose control
Fucking loved both classes xD
Too bad i don't get on CR as much anymore. Oh well.
I've never liked chem!
but biology, i LOVE it! and i have the coolest teacher : D
So I\'m not going to be online till monday buahhhh.
Love biology, really interesting.
Hate chemistry, taking it right now and everyone who has the same professor as me is failing.
[Insert witty comment]
I was always good in science...anatomy, biology etc. the only problem I had was in physiology. Never really had a problem in chemistry either, I managed to pass it with a B-. My chemistry class sat in the same groups for the whole year and my group always cheated on tests together lol....
I remember we had a horrible incident when I was a freshmen in one of the high school Chemistry Classes. A senior girl was mixing together chemicals and the teacher forgot to open the fume hood. The chemicals exploded burning almost 50 percent of her body in chemical burns....
"Opinions are like assholes. Everybody has one and they all stink."
Never did any dissecting in Biology, kind of disappoints me.
Now, chemistry.... I really hated it, it seemed interesting but it was a difficult topic for me to comprehend. The labs were boring too, minor explosions and barely any interesting crap.
In loving memory of Cryska.
They were alright, but I hate anatomy. My teacher is giving us a practical about the 206 bones in the body. They are fill in the blank and she never went over the material. I have until monday to remember everything
Families are not held together by blood.
I love Chemistry and Biology, those classes taught me so much about the natural world and what laws govern it, how life and nature operates, etc.
Labs were pretty long, exhausting, and brutal but incredibly satisfying once you finished them successfully and understood the concepts being experimented upon.
If I wasn't a Business major I would have probably majored in a scientific discipline like Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Geology, Astronomy, etc. Honestly, I would have but for most scientific majors you have to undertake more schooling in order to be qualified for the "good jobs." This means getting a Master's or Doctorate. I couldn't afford additional schooling at the time, already in debt, and wanted to find a major that qualified me for a good job quickly so I could start earning money.

DUE WEST, S.C. - The Tornados of Brevard College took and early lead but could not hold on for the victory, falling 2-1 to the Erskine College Flying Fleet Wednesday evening in men's soccer action. The Tornados fall to 0-2-1, while Erskine improves to 2-1.
Brevard wasted little time in striking first. In the 5th minute, Ian Townson sent a ball into the box from the left side of the pitch which Miika Kasterinen banged home to give the Tornados and early 1-nil lead. The goal is Kasterinen's third of the young season, but unfortunately, it was the only time Juan Mascaro's team would score on the evening.
The Tornados would hold their one-goal advantage into the half, but Erskine would tie things up in the 68th minute. Erskine's Eric Maxley took things into his own hands, scoring an unassisted goal to even the score at one.
The deciding goal came just four minutes later. John Michael Leppert scored on an assist from Kyle Bennett to give the Flying Fleet a 2-1 lead they would not relinquish.
BC keeper Jerry Hatsady made five saves while allowing the two goals. Erskine's Ronnie Murray allowed one goal while making three saves.
Brevard continues their quest for a victory on Saturday when they travel to NAIA foe Warren Wilson College for a 2 p.m. showdown. Erskine plays again next Wednesday, Sept. 10, when they host North Georgia College & State University.

Help me strip out some options from my build
Guys, I have a quote pending from a broker on the 328i x-drive. I know I over built the car and it's going to come back over my budget. I even had them get prices with US v. ED maybe I can save a few bucks and go on vacation!
Here's what I submitted... take a look and help me narrow down some options. Don't just say "get rid of this you don't need it" help me understand why I really don't need or want it.
2013 BMW 328i xDrive Sedan ($38,850) ($53,725 with options)
+Sport Line ($2,500)
+Mineral Grey Metallic ($550)
+Cold Weather Package ($950)
+Dynamic Handling Package ($1,000)
+Lighting Package ($900)
+Premium Package ($3100)
+Technology Package ($3100)
+Sport Automatic Transmission with Paddles ($500)
+Harman Kardon Sound System ($875)
+Automatic High Beams ($250)
+Park Distance Control ($750)
+Rear-View Camera ($400)
2015 428i Gran Coupe M-Sport
- Glacier Silver - Premium Pkg - Tech Pkg - Driver Assistance Plus - ACC - HK Sound - Heated Seats
Because I got a fully loaded 335 sport for a less than that after I negotiated my deal.
Only difference is that I didn't go with auto high beams and I got heated seats instead of the cold weather package. Plus, I didn't go with AWD either of course.
But I basically got all the same stuff in a 335 RWD for less.
2016 ///M3: YMB, Executive, Adaptive, DCT
-Premium Package ($3100)
-Technology Package ($3100)
-Automatic High Beams ($250)
-Park Distance Control ($750)
-Rear-View Camera ($400)
-Cold Weather Package ($950)
Heated Seats ($500) Heated front seats yes, do you really need heated rear seats and a steering wheel?
Navigation ($2150) Delete excessive electronics
I'm not going to offer a rational for my recommendation, just common sense, you're looking at a Sport Line, keep it simple, it's a driver's car!
Highest Regards

If you're leasing, you still want to focus on bringing the overall cost down first.
I got a lot of fantastic tips on the 'fest.
truecar.com and bmwconfig.com are excellent tools. You can configure your car on those, and they'll spit back fair prices for both yourself and the dealer. Take the information you get on those sites, and ask dealers if they'll match.
Definitely don't ask them how much it will cost. They always start at MSRP. You should tell them what you're willing to deal on. That's how I did it, and I got a couple great offers.
To be fair, you need to throw them a bone. Don't ask for a deal at invoice or below invoice. I'm perfectly ok with them making money on the deal, but I definitely won't pay MSRP. Your goal should be to close a deal that is much closer to the invoice price than the MSRP price. That's what I did.
Also, out of all those options you listed, the obvious are cold weather package and auto high beams. I'd drop auto high beams and go with heated seats instead of cold weather package.
2016 ///M3: YMB, Executive, Adaptive, DCT
- XDrive
- Cold Weather Package
- Harmon Kardon
- Auto High Beams
+ Heated Seats
* A good set of snow tires and RWD is sufficient for your climate. I've lived in New Hampshire and now Bergen County, AWD is overkill here. We only get 2-3 rough days; snow tires are just fine for the typical 1" of snow on those days. I have a second car, almost regret even getting the snow tires on my RWD 328i.
* Not sure if you are aware, but the standard audio system on the F30 in the USA is the "premium" audio system they get in Europe and pay extra for. It is very, very good, and while I haven't heard the HK system I can't see how its worth $875 if you're trying to trim things back.
* Again, in your climate, you don't need the full Cold Weather Package. Just get the heated seats and be done with it.
* Auto high beams? Unless you live in a very dark area with no street lighting, this is unnecessary. I put on my high beams maybe 2x a week because the xenon's are so damn good, just don't need them unless I'm in pitch black conditions, certainly don't need them to function automatically.
Yeah, I'd definitely kill xdrive too. That's $2k right there...
2016 ///M3: YMB, Executive, Adaptive, DCT
Drop the xDrive and you save $1,000 -- $2,000 less $1,000 for a good set of dedicated winter wheels and tires; plus your summer tires last longer. Since you would the get the sport suspension on your rwd Sport line car many folks would say you'd be fine to drop the DHP and save another $1,000. Drop the auto high beams. $2,250 saved. Do you really, really want/need HUD?

I'm actually going to be bold and say you can drop xdrive, and not even get the snow tires. I guess I might be in a unique situation though. If I really had to drive in the snow, I wouldn't take my car anyway. I'd use my wife's SUV.
2016 ///M3: YMB, Executive, Adaptive, DCT
Knowing Long Island like the back of my hand, there are very few hilly areas that would warrant XDrive, so unless he commutes and/or takes upstate road trips and/or only has one car in the famliy there's no reason for it.
Snow tires too, I am beginning to realize. I've got a FWD minivan on snow tires, and for the 3 days this winter I actually would have to drive in the white stuff I could just use the wife's car and not put winter rubber on my F30 either.
On packages v. selected stand-alone options, I defer to those above who are more familiar with the F30. For the rest, these jump out at me:
Save another $1,150 and dump the parking aids. Yes, the salesman or someone else will probably trot out a "think of the children" line about safety. To that I say, you are buying a sport sedan with excellent visibility, not a truck with blind spots the size of Montana. Unless you have a history of close calls (or worse), continue to trust your ability and awareness--you're not going to start suddenly plowing into obstacles and small children if you forgo those options.
(On the other hand, if you truly are a menace when parking & reversing, by all means please ignore me and leave those two on your build sheet! )
2011 335xi Individual 6MT - Azurite Black Metallic / Oyster & Black / Anthracite Maple + all the good stuff
2003 330Ci Sport 5MT - Black Sapphire Metallic / Natural Brown / Myrtle + the important stuff
N47° 35' 30.13" E11° 10' 33.36" - End of break-in...you can guess what came next. BMW CCA
drop everything but HK, sport auto and leather.
F30 328i Alpine White/coral red Msport 6MT, HK, Xenons, Msport brakes, black grills and side sills, performance exhaust
-You're not buying the car, or you're not planning on keeping it long-term and you are willing to compromise on certain features.
My suggestion is:
1. Drop Technology Package - if you're not crazy about the HUD: it looks cool and all, and 4 years down the lane, every sedan might be equipped with it, but it's not all that functional. You can get the NAV as a stand-alone or just make do with a Garmin-style GPS.. Smartphone integration is not too exciting.. You may have your own smartphone, just use a basic AUX cable and enjoy your ipod/iPhone/Android..
2. Drop Premium Package - If you're not crazy about the lumbar support, and don't have a back problem/bad back.. I am crazy about lumbar support, and I am going to keep my car for as long as I can, so I have this package.. I already had leather.. I have lumbar support in my Altima as standard option, so I'm not letting this one go.. I can't drive without lumbar support - I took a rental over the new year eve and the car didn't have lumbar, I was freaking out on my way to and back from Raleigh.. the most uncomfortable drive.. I doubt you would like to pay for the Sat radio.. Comfort Access Keyless entry... umm I'd take it if it were free, but no, I wouldn't pay for it.. not all that moolah!
3. Drop HK - if you're not an audiophile. I am - and I need the best sound quality, I need music all the time.. and I cannot drive for long distances if I don't have good music.. that's it.. so I have HK..
4. Drop Cold Weather Package - if you can live with not having heated steering wheel. I have Cold Weather Package and I am crazy about heated steering wheel. I don't care about rear heating much, might be good for my parents when they come visit me, but it's in the package.. so I got the package.
5. Drop x-Drive - if you have enough place to store 4 wheels when the other 4 are being used, and are comfortable swapping out tires before and after winter season - if you have snow (I am kind of geographically challenged and have no idea how much snow - if any - do you get at your place). And if you drive in a sporty fashion, you might feel your rear fish out a little when making fast lane changes/turns on wet/snowy roads on non-snow tires.. - without x-Drive : this is the only regret of my dear friend has, who owns an E92 RWD .. Not taking this option will also let you keep your sport suspension if you go with Sport or M-Sport line, and lower the ride height - if it matters to you.
6. Drop Auto High Beams - they're cool.. not too great.. but they don't cost much as well..
I would not suggest you to:
1. Drop DHP: I have said it somewhere else, and I have read it numerous times on boards, this option alone gives your car - same 1 car - 4 flavors of driving. If you don't take this option, all that would change with the button on the middle would be your throttle and steering response - not suspension - and the suspension makes a hell lot of difference in driving..
2. Sport line - The name of the line is self-explanatory. If you like sport look, sport feel, take sport line. If you just need a daily driver, and don't care about sport feel (hinting at 4 flavors), then take modern, luxury or no-line based on what line suits you. Sport line also gives you sport suspension, which a lot of people dig.. seriously!
3. Rear-View camera: This is becoming a necessity - with the parking spaces reducing every day and more cars coming onto the streets, with your car being used as daily driver and squeezing into and out of tight parking spots, I think this one is a necessity. You can skip on it, if this is going to be your weekend ride..
4. Leather : Cmon dude, whats a classy sport sedan without leather? - thats my opinion.. :P
All the above are depending on your choice/way of life, as it is you who is ultimately going to drive it. You know the best what you can and what you cannot live without.. You are the best judge.. If you have any questions about what is the use of each feature, feel free to ask.. you'll get everyone's opinions, facts and experiences..
And let us know what you finally order..

And for the price of all options, you're being quoted the MSRP.
Go to bmwconfig.com -> configurator : build your car and see the invoice price that your dealer would be paying on the options. You can negotiate on that price, keep dealer profit as X, and offer your dealer invoice + X as final price (excluding taxes and fees).
If you are doing ED, you can get the same car for cheaper - US invoice is higher than ED invoice..
Don't buy at MSRP.. if you don't get a good enough deal with your current dealer, shop around.. check out board sponsors..
Good Luck!
2015 328i / M Sport / Alpine White / Coral Red / 4 DR / 6 MT / Rear Camera + PDC / Xenons / DHP / 63K+ Miles / Bought 10-30-2014
One thing I'm adamanat about is that nowadays, if you're going to spend $45k+ (or even $40k+) for a car, there are certain things that are required.
Otherwise, people with Malibus and Sentras will be driving around in cars with stuff you don't have. Sure you'll get performance characteristcis with a 328 or 335 that you'll never get with those cars, but things like a rear view camera and nav???? It's 2013, I can't see how anyone would buy a $40k car without things like that.
2016 ///M3: YMB, Executive, Adaptive, DCT
Rental cars are 1 thing, but you can get a nav and rear view camera now in the Malibu and cars like the Nissan Sentra, Ford Focus, and other cars on the bottom rung.
EDIT: Sort of embarrassing to be driving around in a $45,000 car without a Nav and rear view camera, and then someone pulls up next to you in a Chevy Malibu and has that stuff...
2016 ///M3: YMB, Executive, Adaptive, DCT

It depends on what you value. I don't value gadgets.
A lot of the optional stuff is standard on a 335i (Xenon, sunroof).
I would scrap the whole thing and get a Silver 335i Sport, Coral-red leather, no paddles but with heated seats. 47695$ to start with. Lucky you because they want 55000$ here.

Sport automatic is a no-brainer with Sport line, I guess, esp. with the experiences on the board .. the OP would go for Sport line if he wants the Sport look and feel, so he should get Sport Auto transmission as well.. he's already around $45k... makes no sense in saving 500 and missing out on good driving experience.. IMO
I think it is a simple evaluation of value here when considering purchase/lease of a car. To me, putting too many options on a car starts eroding its "value for money" factor. A loaded to the gills 328i would effectively drive and feel much like a lightly optioned 328i, and is imo not worth the extra $15k spent.
Take that gadget laden Malibu mentioned above. If you load one up fully, you'll get an MSRP of ~$34000, but of course you cannot even compare this loaded Malibu with a base 328i. I would spend the extra 3-4k on minimally optioned 328i every single time, because while there might be a few more bells and whistles in the Malibu, EVERYTHING about the 3er is better (performance, design, fuel efficiency, driving feel). This is because the 328 is in a whole another CLASS, so every single little detail about the car is superior to the Malilbu.
So my philosophy is to either: 1. keep it cheap by sticking to lightly optioned cars, or
2. spend the extra to get a lightly optioned version of the next class up. So if I find myself pricing out a 328i with lots of options, I would start considering getting a 5 series instead, since you're going spend nearly that much more money anyway on a heavily optioned F30.
2016 ///M3: YMB, Executive, Adaptive, DCT
Still, everytime I walk through a parking lot and see a loaded to the gills Malibu/Fusion/Accord etc, I'm still dumbfounded. If you're already going to drop 30K+ on a car, why not just plunk down a few more grand and get a base BMW/Acura/Infiniti. I know the insurance and premium gas will also cost more during ownership, but the up-leveled car is just SO MUCH better.
To be fair, the modern midsize volume selling sedan are great cars. I seriously considered the newly redesigned Accord and Altima while I was shopping for me new car. However, a big part of their greatness is their value for money, which goes out the window once you start throwing in options. If I had decided to buy an Accord instead, I would have gotten a lightly optioned example as well.
To get an F30 without the Technology Package is absolutely criminal. It makes the car. Those who say they don't need it are normally those who shouldn't be driving a BMW anyway, people who can't afford the $50,000 version and strip it down to nothing just for the sake of the badge.

So I have to update using redsn0w instead of itunes? (sorry about the double post)
OK. Thanks. I forgot what key to hit to locate the ispw file I loaded on the desktop using itunes.
I preface this by saying it's a legitimate question and not an attempt to troll.
Why should it be standard protocol to send donations when they have not yet perfected the exploit? I can't think of a single product in the market today where you pay the developers BEFORE they actually make the product. Why should jailbreaking be any different?
In the rest of the market, the only time I can think of where you give the developers money before the product is actually finalized is if you're an invester...and in those cases you usually give them money ahead of time in exchange for a share of the profits if the product does indeed come to fruition.
The way I see it, these guys working on the jailbreak are trying to sell a product. When that product - the jailbreak - is finalized and functional I will be more than happy send a donation to reward them for the hard work. Likewise, if they jailbreak is never released then they wouldn't get the donation. Just like I wouldn't give a business man a donation just for working hard. There are tons of people out there who have great ideas and work really hard to make it happen and build a business, but it sometimes just doesn't happen and the business shuts down.
Why do the guys working on the jailbreak go by a different set of rules than everyone else?
Again, this is a legitimate question and I'm more than willing to change my opinion if you make a good case. I hope this leads to a good discussion and not a pissing match.
Don't worry anyways, pod2g says the team is not accepting donations at this point in time.
"Against THE law". It's not internationally against the law and never will be. The cases will get thrown out easily if ever tested in the courts.
The whole idea of making adjustments to your personal property being against the law is just ludicrous anyway.
Since its now against the law like piracy, the mods here should disallow any threads discussing iPad jailbreaking. Interesting.
I was just responding to you announcing that "jail breaking can never be made illegal".
These are your words my friend not mine haha.
Yes I realize the differences against international and national law. But just like saying national law does not make it international law, something that isn't international law but is national law doesn't make it any less illegal. It's just regional.
Was just busting your balls though.
Oh yeah, the courts never make mistakes:
Remember when they cracked down on Napster? How many teenagers got arrested?
There's no way they could take our rights away either (Patriot Act).
They could never violate the 2nd amendment (Assault Weapons Ban of 2013).
Innocent people never get put in jail (list too long).
If you don't think they could nail you on a copyright violation, especially to make a point
Man you are living in a fantasy land
This is for everyone here arguing about whether the unlock is legal or not

Minor burns - aftercarePartial thickness burns
You can care for minor burns at home with simple first aid.
First-degree burns are only on the top layer of the skin.
- Skin usually turns red
- May swell
- May
Second-degree burns go one layer deeper than first-degree burns.
- A blister forms
- Skin is red
- Usually has swelling
- Usually is painful
Treat a burn like a major burn (call your doctor) if it is:
- From a fire, an electrical wire or socket, or chemicals
- Larger than 2 inches
- Or if it is on a hand, foot, face, groin, buttocks, hip, knee, ankle, shoulder, elbow, or wrist
First Aid for Minor Burns
First, calm and reassure the person who is burned.
If clothing is not stuck to the burn, remove it. If the burn is caused by chemicals, take off all clothes that have the chemical on them.
Cool the burn.
- Use cool water, not ice.
- If possible, especially if the burn is caused by chemicals, hold the burned skin under cool running water for 10 to 15 minutes until it does not hurt as much. Use a sink, shower, or garden hose.
- If this is not possible, put cool clean wet cloth on the burn, or soak the burn in a cool water bath for 5 minutes.
Caring for Burns
After the burn is cooled, make sure it is a minor burn. If it is deeper, or larger, or on a hand, foot, face, groin, buttocks, hip, knee, ankle, shoulder, elbow, or wrist, seek medical care.
If it is a minor burn:
- Clean the burn gently with soap and water.
- Do not break blisters. An opened blister can get infected.
- You may put a thin layer of ointment, such as petrolatum or aloe vera, on the burn. The ointment does not need to have antibiotics in it, and some antibiotic ointments can cause an allergic reaction. Do not use cream, lotion, oil, cortisone, butter, or egg white.
- If needed, protect the burn from rubbing and pressure with a sterile non-stick gauze lightly taped or wrapped over it. Change the dressing once a day. Do not use a dressing that can shed fibers that get caught in the burn.
- For pain, take an over-the-counter pain medicine according to the directions on the bottle. These include acetaminophen (such as Tylenol), ibuprofen (such as Advil or Motrin), naproxen (such as Aleve), and aspirin. Do not give aspirin to children under 2, or anyone 18 or younger who has or is recovering from chickenpox or flu symptoms.
What to Expect
Minor burns could take up to 3 weeks to heal.
A burn can itch as it heals. Do not scratch it.
The deeper the burn, the more likely it is to scar. If the burn appears to be developing a scar, call your doctor for advice.
When to Call the Doctor
Burns are susceptible to tetanus. If your last tetanus shot was more than 5 years ago, call your doctor. You may need a booster shot.
Call your doctor if you have signs of infection:
- Increased pain
- Redness
- Swelling
- Oozing or pus
- Fever
- Swollen lymph nodes
- Red streak from the burn

In my opinion there is always a way around all the protections but with your computers being protected against the most common script kiddie attacks I highly doubt anyone would take the time required to further compromise your system (unless your hiding something that someone really wants). As far as whats next I would recommend you jump into a programming language. Any language of your choice of course because everyone has their starting prefference but ruby and python are my recommendations. With this knowledge you can take your pentesting to the next level, and instead of spending time learning more tools, you can spend some time building your own and truly learn whats happening behind the scenes. I too like to learn by research and trial and am currently learning to build pentesting tools using python. Best of luck in your next venture and I can also recommend possibly starting a blog or website where you can post your learnings and ideas, because that can be a great way to get others input and advice on the topics your currently working on.

Thread: A clown for a birthday party
Hybrid View
A clown for a birthday party
A lady is throwing a party for her granddaughter.
She had gone all out...a caterer, band, and hired a clown.
Just before the party started, two bums showed up looking for a handout.
Feeling sorry for the bums, the woman told them she would give them a meal if they helped chop some wood for her.
Gratefully they headed to the rear of the house.
The guests arrived, and all was going well with the children having a wonderful time, except the clown hadn't shown up.
After a while the phone rang, the clown said he was stuck in traffic and couldn't make the party.
The woman was very disappointed and unsuccessfully tried to entertain the children herself.
She happened to look out the window and saw one of the bums doing a cartwheel across the lawn.
She watched in awe as he swung from tree branches, did mid air flips, and leaped high in the air.
She spoke to the other bum and said " What your friend is doing is absolutely marvelous. I have never seen such a thing.
Do you think your friend would consider repeating the performance for the children? I would pay him $50!"
The other bum says, " Well, I dunno. Let me ask him - HEY WILLIE! FOR $50 WOULD YOU CHOP OFF ANOTHER TOE?"

The Wrong Kind Of Protection
I am being raised in a Catholic household by parents who have always set very different standards for me than they have for my brother. For example, while my brother was allowed to go out alone at 12, I still have a hard time going out at 16. My parents have explained to me that I am in more danger of being hurt than my brother because I am a girl and need to be kept safe. While I initially dismissed my anger and accepted this explanation, I now realize that instead of limiting my social activity and autonomy, instead of trying to blindly protect me, they should have exposed me to the realities of the world.

Photo gallery: 'Poverty simulation' held by First 5 San Bernardino, Catholic Charities
SAN BERNARDINO - In "real life," James Moses is manager of KidsNCare, a program run by the county schools office to help children in need of child care, food or other resources.
It's a job that often involves helping children with parents - or a single parent - struggling with limited transportation, limited time and other poverty-related problems.
But at a "poverty simulation" he participated in Thursday, Moses learned he hadn't fully understood what the families he works with are going through and might need.
"In the beginning, I thought we had adequate resources and could make this work out," Moses said, relaying his experience of acting out the life of a community college student raising two younger sisters and the frustration of even pretending for an hour and a half. "But it went downhill fast. ... The laughter hides the tears. It was that stressful."
The simulation, which included discussions and analysis, took three hours and brought together dozens of relatively high-ranking officials from county agencies that deal with poverty.
Those agencies want the best people for the job - generally people with bachelor's degrees or higher education, far removed in their personal lives from worries about how to get to work or pay for rent.
"That's not always the case, but it can be," said Karen Scott, executive director of First 5 San Bernardino. "We stage events like this to help keep them in touch with the real folks they're helping."
First 5 San Bernardino partnered with Catholic Charities to host the role-playing simulation at Cal State San Bernardino.
Participants were assigned an identity and family profile and had to experience one "month" - 15 minutes per week - of making rent and caring for children or elderly family members through combinations of part-time or low-paying jobs and public agencies that often are overloaded with clients and are open only during the same hours the clients work.

DALLAS -- Dean Foods Co., the nation's largest dairy producer, has agreed to sell its Morningstar unit to Canadian dairy giant Saputo for $1.45 billion.
Morningstar makes dairy and nondairy extended shelf-life products, including creamers widely distributed by workplace refreshment providers, along with ice cream mixes and whipping cream and cultured products like sour cream and cottage cheese.
Dean Foods says it expects to net $887 million from the transaction, which should close by the end of this year or early 2013.
Morningstar has about 2,000 employees and operates 10 manufacturing facilities in nine states. It had 2011 sales of $1.3 billion.
The combined Saputo and Morningstar business will have about 12,000 employees and 57 manufacturing facilities in five countries. Saputo's U.S. dairy products division, which will be complemented by the Morningstar business, is based in Illinois.
Dean Foods's WhiteWave Foods Co. organic and soymilk unit went public in October, but Dean Foods controls the majority of the company's stock.
The WhiteWave IPO and Morningstar sale will leave Dean as largely a producer of branded and private label milk, which has reportedly been the largest revenue producer for the company, with net sales of $9.6 billion in 2011.

The commandinput property class implements a simple way to register input binds and get appropriate callbacks in response to them.
PcCommandInput serves for receiving mouse, keyboard and joystick input messages inside entities. Also handles loading/saving of config files for easy specification of commands attached to each kind of input events.
This property class works by defining a series of
Binds that link input events codes to the desired messages to receive at the entity behaviour.
Binds can be specified either by using xml actions (for blxml and
map format) or
iPcCommandInput api (for c++ or blpython).
Bind codes can correspond to key codes or to special codes to handle different situations, here is a list of currently supported codes:
Also for joystick/mouse move events '_centered' can be appended to the bind code to get coordinates relative to the center of the screen.
Message callbacks received when a bind is fullfilled always start with 'pccommandinput_', with the specified command code appended afterwards.
For example, for a bind defined as
pitch = MouseY, the message would be 'pccommandinput_pitch'.
Also for key/button messages the key state can be included in the message name, so for example a bind defined as
forward = up, the received messages would be 'pccommandinput_forward1' (key down), 'pccommandinput_forward0' (key press) and 'pccommandinput_forward_' (key autorepeat).
Note this the default behaviour but can be turned off to get only one message for all states.
For this '.args' must be appended to the command name, so for example a bind defined as
forward.args = up would receive only 'pccommandinput_forward' message, with 'state' parameter holding the state.
Config files can hold binds, by using the following notation:
<section>.Input.Bind.<commandcode> = <bindcode> [bindcode2] ... [bindcodeN]
This would be an example config file:
; this is a command definition for a spaceship. Ecksdee.Input.Bind.fire = JoystickButton0 Ecksdee.Input.Bind.forward = JoystickButton1 Ecksdee.Input.Bind.turbo = JoystickButton2 Ecksdee.Input.Bind.brake = JoystickButton3 Ecksdee.Input.Bind.slide = JoystickButton4 Ecksdee.Input.Bind.afterburner = JoystickButton5 Ecksdee.Input.Bind.yaw = JoystickAxis0 Ecksdee.Input.Bind.pitch = JoystickAxis1 Ecksdee.Input.Bind.yaw = JoystickAxis2 Ecksdee.Input.Bind.pitch = JoystickAxis3 Ecksdee.Input.Bind.rotateup = up Ecksdee.Input.Bind.rotatedown = down Ecksdee.Input.Bind.rotateleft = left Ecksdee.Input.Bind.rotateright = right Ecksdee.Input.Bind.fire = c Ecksdee.Input.Bind.forward = x Ecksdee.Input.Bind.turbo = space Ecksdee.Input.Bind.brake = shift Ecksdee.Input.Bind.slide = alt Ecksdee.Input.Bind.afterburner = ctrl Ecksdee.Input.Bind.dumpinventory = i Ecksdee.Input.Bind.cammode = tab Ecksdee.Input.Bind.resetpos = r Ecksdee.Input.Bind.nextreg = t
The binds can then be loaded from the property class by doing LoadConfig(<section>), note for this the config file must already be loaded. LoadConfig is available both as xml action for blxml/map files, and from iPcCommandInput api for c++ and python.
PcCommandInput also has several properties that can be set to further customize behaviour from this property class, these are:
To define an entity that uses this property class we add a <propclass> stance to the entity or entity template <addon> section.
<addon entityname="SpaceShip" plugin="cel.addons.celentity"> <propclass name="pcinput.standard"> <action name="LoadConfig"> <par name="prefix" string="Ecksdee"/> </action> </propclass> <propclass name="pcobject.mesh"> <action name="SetMesh"> <par string="orogor" name="name"/> </action> </propclass> <behaviour layer="blpython" name="spaceship"/> </addon>

Chimeric Mouse Developed to Test Human Liver Disease
A team led by Salk Institute researchers has developed a mouse model with 95 percent of its liver containing cells of human origin, making it an ideal system to test novel therapies for debilitating human diseases, including cancer.
The team, led by senior author Inder Verma, a professor in the Laboratory of Genetics, had previously generated a mouse with a partially "humanized" liver, but wanted to improve their method to achieve almost complete transformation. They use a special mouse that has liver problems of its own, but whose problems can be kept in check with a drug called NBTC. Taking away NBTC allows human hepatocytes to take hold and populate the mouse liver with human cells.
The new model is susceptible to human liver infections and responds to human drug treatments. To test this, the researchers exposed the mice to Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C and found that, unlike normal mice, that are resistant to these viruses, the chimeric animals developed the disease.
More importantly, using pegylated interferon alpha 2a – the standard treatment for Hepatitis C – the researchers showed that the "humanized" liver inside the mouse responds just like a normal human liver. The team tested additional experimental drugs and found that they too behaved as they did in humans.
"This shows that our chimeric mouse model is medically relevant and can be used to validate novel drugs in a pre-clinical setting," says first author Karl-Dimiter Bissig, an internist and postdoctoral researcher in the Laboratory of Genetics. "This is great news as it provides us with a tool with which we can examine many human hepatotropic pathogens, including malaria. In the future, it also has potential applications for regenerative medicine; allowing confirmation of the true hepatocyte nature of cells prior to human transplantation."
The study was published in the online edition of the Journal of Clinical Investigation in February.

Seattle Seahawks
St. Louis Sheep Turds
And now it's....
...Storytime with SaveourSonics!
Sorry guys. Just don't have time for a story this week, really bogged down by school. Sorry this is up so late. Sucks because I love making stories for the Rams games.
Now let's get some predictions and pregame chatter up in here. I hate the sheep with nearly every fiber of my body. If any of them come in here, just troll the hell out of them and call them names! As always,
Give 'em hell
Prediction: 23-20 W
3 Keys To Winning
1. Staying Angry
This team must flush last weeks game out of their minds. They cannot play lingering on the controversy of that call. Focus is going to be a big aspect of this game, and I'm hoping the defense channels that into anger against the Rams offense and continues to display the relentless pass rush that we saw on Monday.
2. Open Up The Offense
Bevell was cozy sitting on a 7 point lead last week and our offense looked like horse crap. He needs to get the offense going more quickly and attacking downfield to keep the defense honest.
3. Establish The Run
The only way our offense is going to be able to be efficient in this ball game is to establish the run early with a heavy dose of Beast Mode. Russell Wilson was looking MUCH better when the defense had to respect the run and I expect the same this week. Rams are an above average defense, really. We need to keep drives going to keep our defense fresh.
Key Matchup of the Game:
Marshawn Lynch vs Front 7
- If we don't run the ball well, we won't win. Simple as that. The running game sets up everything else for us and Beast Mode is going to have to have another big primetime game for us to have another upset.
This isn't nearly as much of a must-win as last week, but it's an even bigger statement game for this team going up against one of the best teams in the league on national television. Pride in
, go Hawks.

My 3 keys to a win:
1. Pass-Rush, Pass-Rush, Pass-Rush. The Rams might have 3 o-linemen miss this game, and the Rams have already given up 12 sacks in 3 games so far this year.
2. The secondary needs to hold up and give the pass-rush a chance to get to Bradford, Don't let Danny Amendola beat us the guys has 25-catches for 296-yds and a TD.. and also, With the Reg. Refs coming back this weekend the 'Legend of Doom' needs to keep the PI's down (play smart BB)
3. The WRs need to GET OPEN!, I couldn't believe the lack of separation they were getting vs. Green Bay, and also, Words of advise to our WRs, DO NOT let Cortland Finnegan get under your skin, the guy is the same kinda guys you face in practice every day, he tries to intimidate his opponent.. (just turn and walk away)..
Game Score Prediction:
Hawks: 27
Rams: 10
Bruce Irvin= Sacks: 4-1/2, Tackles: 5, FF: 1
Golden Tate= Rec: 10, Yds: 144, Avg: 14.4, TD: 3

It will be interesting to see how your team responds to the entire nation led by the media trying to discredit their latest win.
No one in the media is interesting in challenging that narrative
No one is interested in pointing to the fact that Packers got points because of poor officiating as well

It's that Seattle biased i was watching NFL AM on Monday they had Wyman on and all they wanted to talk about was the play at the end when he was trying to talk about the defense.
It felt like the NFL Network was trying to interrogate Pete to in his interview i thought Pete handled it pretty well.
Early Tuesday morning, shortly after 3 a.m., I was asked to call into a show on the NFL Network called "NFL AM" to discuss the Seahawks' Monday night win over Green Bay.
I knew they would have plenty of questions about the "simultaneous catch" but I thought I could squeeze in a sentence or two about the amazing performance by Seattle's defense. When I did, the host cut me off. "No offense," she said, and it was back to the topic of the catch.
Since then, the national media has descended on our peaceful little town, treated us like a bunch of hicks claiming to have seen Bigfoot, labeled us cheaters and asked our head coach to apologize for the win.
Lost in all the attention and focus on Golden Tate's questionable catch for a game-winning touchdown is a defensive effort that will be scary to any future opponent. The national media may not want to take note, but rest assured offensive coordinators across the league are wringing their hands over how to generate points against a defense that has allowed an average of just 13 per game.
The prolific Packers offense had not been held under 300 yards in 18 straight regular-season games. Seattle's defense only gave up 268 yards, including just 87 in the first half. The Seahawks' eight sacks in the first half lifted them to fifth in the league in that category the one that needed most improvement from last year.
Statistics aside, it's the details that are most impressive and in any football game, the little things are what matters most.

I may get one up if I get a window of time to do it. I don't think you guys realize how long it takes to think of all that crap

No offense SoS, but who needs a story when you have a pic of the lovely "Erin" up there?
I think you're first key to the game was spot on. This team NEEDS to forget all the media garbage from the Packers game and get focused on St Louis in a hurry. I know the stats say the Rams are abysmal so far this year, they rank close to the bottom of the league in offense and defense so far, but this is a division game on the road and that makes the stats a little less relevant. We NEED this game. The 'Hawks need to prove they can win on the road, they usually struggle, plus we are already 0-1 in the division, so we can't let this one get away. If we want to be considered a contender, this is a game we must win.
I disagree that we need to establish the run first. I think we need to establish a passing attack. Our pass game has been inconsistent at best. We need to get Wilson into a rhythm early and take control of the intermediate pass game, 10-15 yards downfield and show that we can move the ball in the air. The run game will be there when we want it, but if we go to it too early we could become one-dimensional very fast. I don't remember where the Rams rank in pass D, but I don't think it's very high, so this would be a great team to iron out the kinks in our passing attack against.
My 3rd key is that we MUST get out to a decent lead and take the refs out of the game. With all the scrutiny that happened and the thoughts that the 'Hawks got "lucky" and didn't deserve the win, I think that the refs could be a bit biased in their calls. I doubt that we get many borderline calls on Sunday. Thankfully the regular refs are going to be back, this should alleviate some of the bias, I truly believe that if the replacement officials were here we were going to get housed on a ton of calls. I won't go so far as to say the league would explicitly tell officials to screw the 'Hawks over, but I won't say it's out of the realm of possibility either. The 'Hawks just need to get a big lead and not let the officials decide the game.
I think the 'Hawks are clearly a better team than the Rams at this point, but if they don't come out with a chip on their shoulder they could lose this game.
Seahawks 34
Rams 9

I don't think we're all that much better to be honest. Both teams feature pretty inept offenses and both teams have very good defenses, though I'd say ours is better. Considering they're at home, I think this game is going to be very close. I'm not all that confident.

I'm really intrigued to see how focused the Seahawks are. Can they ignore all the distractions and focus on the task at hand. After a chaotic week of essentially 24/7 media coverage - can they step up when it's time to play football? Lots of young players on the roster - will they be ready?
I'm thinking Seahawks 17 - Rams 13

Due to the fact that this is a home game following a Nationally televised game, I definitely think this could be a trap game.
STL is a VERY good team and in my opinion will be around the .500 mark.
The only reason I'm more confident than I would normally be is because their Oline is shot. If we put pressure on Bradford and cover like we do- then we will have a few sacks and turnovers.

I think we win a close low scoring game, with D or ST scoring a TD. Something like 17-13.
I really think we need to win this game and go 3-1 with some very tough games coming up. This is the defenses chance to step up on the road and show that they can be elite without the help of the 12th man. If we see the passrush getting solid pressure on Bradford I think the D will show up big with a couple of interceptions.
I see Sherman and Thomas getting a pick each!

Hidden in Plain Sight by global innovation consultant Jan Chipchase with Simon Steinhardt is a fascinating look at how consumers think and behave.
Chipchase, named by Fortune as "one of the 50 smartest people in tech," has traveled the world, studying people of all nations and their habits, paying attention to the ordinary things that we do every day an how they effect our buying decisions.
Future-focused and provocative, Hidden in Plain Sight: How to Create Extraordinary Products for Tomorrow's Customers illuminates exactly what drives consumers to make the choices they do, and demonstrates how all types of businesses can learn to see—and capitalize upon—what is hidden in plain sight today to create businesses tomorrow.
From the Back Cover:
A global-innovation expert offers a new perspective on how consumers think and how to develop products and services that affect their everyday lives.
Who are your next customers—not just the ones you are serving today but the ones you'll need three, five, or ten years from now? How do you figure out what goods and services will attract them in the future before your competitors do?
According to Jan Chipchase—whom Fast Company has called the "James Bond of design research" and Fortune has called the "Indiana Jones of technology for the developing world"—most of the clues are right in front of us. The key is learning to see the ordinary in a revolutionary new way. As the executive creative director of Global Insights at frog, an award-winning global design and innovation company, Chipchase draws on everyday objects and patterns to show us how to see the world differently, from making a phone call to filling up a gas tank to ascertaining whether it's actually half-and-half you're pouring into your coffee. Chipchase is always looking for opportunities—gaps, anomalies, and contradictions—that will give his clients, some of the world's largest and most successful companies, a distinct competitive advantage, whether they're delivering the most low-tech bar of soap or the most high-tech wireless network.
In Hidden in Plain Sight, Chipchase takes readers on his journeys around the globe and shares his methods for identifying the unmet needs of customers. No matter where he stops—whether Cleveland or Kabul—his goals are the same: to spot and decode the routines of daily life and to help readers use the very same tools that he and his team use to see, and capitalize upon, what is hidden in plain sight today to create businesses tomorrow.

This so isnt your camera is it
Camera of a flat mate/x-girl friend? haha
Be honest now
I just bought a new Dell monitor equiped with a webcam. Happens to be my first webcam. The documentation says I can monitor remotely. Which leads me to my question... can I sniff my webcam traffic remotely. I've googled and unfortunately all my searches for anything "webcam" related has not been successful. Although some of the results were amusing . I followed a tutorial here ...the one a while ago about aquiring songs from myspace with Wireshark. Is this the right direction to take?...or maybe some other tool available in BT? Can I siphon webcam data from a .cap file?
Thanks in advance.
This so isnt your camera is it
Camera of a flat mate/x-girl friend? haha
Be honest now
If you aren't using the cam (ie: you're remote to it) how/why is it generating traffic?
Or do you mean can someone sniff you're traffic while you accessing the camera remotely? (Which isn't really the camera's traffic but your traffic). In which case yes anyone who has access to a piece of network equipment between the camera and you can monitor your traffic. Also whatever access you have to the camera remotely would be available to other to attempt to compromise (hope you have a strong password).
I'm a compulsive post editor, you might wanna wait until my post has been online for 5-10 mins before quoting it as it will likely change.
I know I seem harsh in some of my replies. SORRY! But if you're doing something illegal or posting something that seems to be obvious BS I'm going to call you on it.

REFEREE with MMA Officials
Well, my idea was, you know, I want a name, I want it so it can cut glass, razor sharp. When I close my eyes, I see this thing, a sign, I see this name in bright blue neon lights with a purple outline. And this name is so bright and so sharp that the sign - it just blows up because the name is so powerful... It says, "Dirk Diggler."

I have to fight under a different name for work reasons. I am
Honest and open about it n let my opponents know who I really am
The one and only reason it should happen is if a fighter's day job are preventing him/her from competing. Of course we'd all love to live in a world where said fighter gave their boss the middle finger and fought loud and proud under their real name, but realistically people have bills to pay and sometimes the day job has to come first.
It all comes down to trust I suppose...it's down to those individuals to be honest about their records if they are using different names.
I guess when/if a governing body crops up this is something they'd abolish. That'd be unfortunate for those fighting under different names due to their days jobs, but ultimately better for the integrity of the sport overall.
Fighting, writing and mood lighting.
Unless its for the reasons above, it's a massive cunts trick IMO. My mate had his debut semipro fight on one of the London shows, with his oppo also being debut. Alarm bells started ringing when he showed up with cauliflower ears etc. My pal ended getting a hiding and the dickhead celebrated like he had won TUF. It could have been a lot nastier than it was, mainly down to decent refereeing stopping it early. Not the shows fault, the bloke had simply just changed his surname and Christian name around.
If you didn't see it with your own eyes, or hear it with your own ears, don't invent it with your small mind and share it with your big mouth!
Having said that there was a bit of a scandal when a boxer who had a detached retina and lost his BBBofC licence used a BBBof C licence obtained by another kick boxer from the same city (which was a very dangerous risk to take from a health and welfare point of view)

Jon Koppenhaver aka War Machine.
In all seriousness though if someone has a job that will not let them fight, Brad for example, then I fully support them using a different name. In fact one of my mates is desperate to fight but cannot as he works in a school. He mentioned that he sometimes has a black eye from sparring and to check he's not bluffing about the fighting the school googles his name so i advised he uses a different last name, his mothers maiden name for example. That way he gets to fight and he doesn't risk losing his job.

By Ryan Divish The News Tribune
OAKLAND — They knew it, even if they didn't want to admit it publicly. But day in and day out last season, the Seattle Mariners simply didn't have an offense good enough to make them competitive on a nightly basis.
It's not so much criticism as it is a fact. The Mariners went into last season knowing they were going to play their young players every day — good or bad — and have them learn life at the big league level.
Not surprisingly, there were struggles. They didn't hit. They didn't score runs. They struggled even worse at home. It was a lot to ask of young players in their first and second full seasons of major league baseball.
Seattle ranked last in the American League in batting average (.234), slugging percentage (.369), on-base percentage (.296), runs (619) and runs per game (3.82).
"It's one thing where you are fooling yourself into believing you have a chance to win," said shortstop Brendan Ryan.
And if they were ever to get behind by three runs, it felt like a 30-run deficit and there was no hope of a rally.
"We were not a team built to come from behind," Ryan said. "We were built to try to win those one-run games, keep opponents to a minimal run score and execute the small ball."
The margin of error between a win and a loss was tiny.
"If we made the slightest mistake that might have ruined the one rally we might have in a game," Ryan said.
But it's supposed to be different this year. The young hitters that struggled so much last year will have improved from the tough times. And more importantly, the Mariners have added some proven veteran hitters to take some of the production pressure off the likes of Dustin Ackley, Justin Smoak, Jesus Montero, Michael Saunders and Kyle Seager.
Sluggers Kendrys Morales and Michael Morse were acquired by trades in the offseason to provide a presence in the middle of the lineup. They will bat third and fourth. The team also brought in Raul Ibanez and Jason Bay to be bench players and sometime starters.
"It's what we talked about that we didn't have last year but we do have this year," Mariners manager Eric Wedge said.
It's will be different than last season when the Mariners started the season with Ichiro Suzuki as their No. 3 hitter and the combination of Smoak, Montero and the since-traded John Jaso at cleanup.
"What I see is a legitimate big league lineup," said Ibanez, who's played in almost 2,000 big league games.
That wasn't the case last season. The Mariners unfairly forced players like Seager, Smoak, Montero and Saunders into the heart of the order. They had the talent to bat there, but not the experience.
"In those situations, sometimes you rarely get to see a fastball, they are going to pitch you different and they are going to pitch you tough, you really have to relax and not try to do too much," Morse said. "It's tougher when you are young. It's a big role and it's a tough role. They had to learn the hard way."
Morales called hitting in the middle of the order "a responsibility" that he took great pride in.
So much of the run-producing pressure is put on those 3-4-5 spots. Some players crumble under it.
"Me personally? I like it," Morse said. "I like the pressure that comes with it. I love the responsibility that comes with it. I feel like it's a compliment to me and I feel I can help my team win when I'm hitting there."
There is an air of confidence with the older players. Morales and Morse never seem to be in a hurry at the plate. Ibanez is always locked in. Bay never shows emotion. And even if they do make an out, there is enough confidence from past success to not let panic enter into the equation.
"You gotta go up there cocky in your own way," Morse said. "You have to go up there thinking you are better than the pitcher. You are going to see his best pitches and you are going to hit him."
Morse (nine homers) and Morales (seven homers) led a record-setting power show this spring. The Mariners clubbed a major league-leading 58 homers, which was the most in franchise history and second most by any team over the last 20 years.
Sure spring training statistics are meaningless, but seeing some power from the middle of the order — no matter the circumstances — helps the overall confidence.
"It's not even close," Ryan said. "It really isn't. The vibe is just so different, so much better."
"It's night and day," said Wedge
But can those two guys in the middle of the order make that much difference?
"When you have that presence in the middle of lineup, it has to help," Smoak said.
Sabermetric forecasting and projections vary on both Morse and Morales. They have Morales hitting anywhere from .265 to .284 with 17-23 homers and 52-78 RBI. Morse is projected to hit from .253 to .295 with also around 17-23 homers with 57-80 RBI. These projections don't reflect the possible benefits of playing at the reconfigured Safeco Field, or the improved health of both Morales and Morse.
Players have said Morse is capable of hitting more than 30 home runs this season. The Mariners haven't had that happen since Russell Branyan hit 31 in 2009. Meanwhile, the Mariners staff believes Morales is finally fully healthy from his gruesome leg break in 2010 and will be more like the player he was before the injury.
Bay and Ibanez will also work into games likely batting in the No. 5 spot.
"It's just a different presence," Wedge said.
But for the Mariners to truly make a stride in terms of offensive success and wins, players like Smoak and Ackley — two major foundations of the organization — must show improvement.
Both are coming off awful seasons. Both have made significant changes to their swings that they feel will help them this season.
Smoak has looked this spring like the hitter the Mariners have hoped he would be. He hit .407 (24-for-59) with eight doubles, five homers and 15 RBI. He posted a .455 on-base percentage and a .797 slugging percentage.
"I just want to carry it over to the season, keep doing what I'm doing," Smoak said.
Ackley wasn't quite as explosive this spring, but his swing looks better and he seems more balanced at the plate.
Montero also seemed to turn a corner this spring, showing patience and a focus pitch-by-pitch that he hadn't shown before.
"He's really starting to figure some things out," Wedge said of Montero.
There's an ease in the Mariners clubhouse this spring. In past years, there was an anxiety, a feeling of "what happens if we don't hit?"
That's been replaced by a self-confidence that says, "We will hit."
"It's a whole different feeling coming into the clubhouse this spring than it has been the last two years," Ryan said.
The pressure has been reduced and divided.
"These guys had a lot of pressure on them the last couple years," Ibanez said. "Bringing some of us older guys to take some of that pressure off them makes it easier to play to their abilities."
It started to show this spring.
"Guys are relaxed and confident and they're believing in their abilities," Morse said. "It's something we have to remember, bottle up and carry over to the season."
Will it lead to success? The Mariners believe it will.
"We've got veteran guys now and everybody knows it's going to be different," Montero said. "Nobody has been talking about us, but we're fine with that. We're quiet, now we have a nice team. Everything is coming together. We've got power, we've got hitting, and we've got pitching. It's going to be different."

Dementia - keeping safe in the home
It is important to make sure the home of someone who has dementia is safe for them.
See also:
Safety Tips for the Home
Wandering can be a serious problem in people who have more advanced dementia. These tips may help prevent wandering:
- Place alarms on all doors and windows that will sound if the doors are opened.
- Place a "Stop" sign on doors to the outside.
- Keep car keys out of sight.
To prevent harm when someone with dementia does wander:
- Have the patient wear an identification bracelet or necklace with their name, address, and phone number.
- Tell neighbors and others in the area that the person who has dementia may wander. Ask them to call you or to help them get home.
- Fence and close off any areas that may be dangerous, such as a stairwell or deck, or a hot tub or swimming pool.
- Consider giving the person a GPS device or a cell phone (which will have a GPS locator embedded in it).
Inspect the person's house, and remove or reduce hazards for tripping and falling. See also: Preventing falls
Do not leave a person who has advanced dementia alone in the home.
Lower the temperature of the hot water tank. Remove or lock up cleaning products and other items that may be poisonous.
Make sure the kitchen is safe.
- Remove knobs on the stove when it is not in use.
- Lock up sharp objects.
Remove, or store in locked areas:
- All medicines, including the patient's medicines and any over-the-counter drugs and supplements
- All alcohol
- All guns. Separate ammunition from the weapons.

Long dinosaur story reported in news@nature 20 Mar 2006. In 2002 palaeontologists exploring the Gobi desert have found "several leg bones, part of a breastbone and six vertebrae, each twice the size of a loaf of bread". Daniel Ksepka of the American Museum of Natural History, New York described the bones for the museum's journal and concluded that they came from a previously unknown dinosaur that had one of the longest necks of any dinosaur. Ksepka claims the animal probably had 14 or 15 of the huge vertebrae making up its neck. This means the dinosaur's neck would have been eight metres long. The bones had a V shaped notch indicating that the bones were held together by a strong ligament to support the animal's neck, which the scientist believe was held out in front of the body, not upright like a giraffe. The dinosaur has been named "Erketu ellisoni" and is believed to be a plant eater related to a group of large dinosaurs known as titanosaurs because of their enormous size. Mark Norell, who studied the specimen with Ksepka, commented: "On the weirdo index, this is pretty weird."
Editorial Comment: Some readers of this newsletter may remember another story about dinosaur necks where palaeontologists found eight neck bones, and no head, and decided they had found a dinosaur with an unusually short neck. This time they have found six neck bones, but no neck and shoulders, and have decided they have an unusually long necked dinosaur. As different dinosaurs have different numbers of neck bones there is no way of really knowing how long a dinosaur's neck was unless you have them all. This story reminds us that it is always worth comparing what the palaeontologists actually found with what they have constructed in their minds and put in the text books as fact.

On Wall Street and Bay Street, they call this a market correction.
When stocks have been trading too high for a while, prices take a tumble back down to something approximating their actual value.
Which is not to suggest your Montreal Canadiens are not much better – and may indeed be worse – than the team that was 10 points behind them in the Eastern Conference standings before the puck dropped.
But the overtime loss was a reminder, to the Canadiens and their fans, that early-season glory notwithstanding, this is not a team good enough to coast against anyone.
Not even the Islanders.
The game should have been done and dusted after 20 minutes. As has often been the case this season, the Canadiens played an excellent first period, outshooting the Islanders 14-3 and getting goals from Travis Mown, of all people, and a hot Max Pacioretty.
But the Islanders hung around, got good goaltending, capitalized on power plays and left Montreal with two points in the bank.
The game was a reminder, if one was needed, that the surprise Eastern Conference leaders are still susceptible to being surprised.
The Commentariat will be all over my ass for being a Negative Ned, but this team is still a work in progress. And there are issues.
• Andrei Markov has lost a step and maybe two. The veteran defenceman doesn't hit anyone and studiously avoids being hit – caution that is understandable, given Markov's history of injuries.
Raphael Diaz, Josh Gorges and P.K. Subban all had more ToI than Markov. The pairing of Gorges and Diaz were on the ice for three of the Islanders' four goals. In the OT, with all that open ice, Gorges had more time than Subban. Go figure.
• Brian Gionta has three goals this season, and they were scored in the opener, game 3 and game 12. Gionta's 46 shots on goal are second to Tomas Plekanec's 52. Gionta's shooting percentage is 6.5 – anemic, but better than Erik Cole's 5.6.
When the Rangers visit the Bell Centre on Saturday, Brendan Gallagher should be ready to return to the lineup.
Michel Therrien won't do this because it's not the way you treat your captain, but I'd be tempted to try Gallagher in Gionta's spot, with Plekanec and Rene Bourque.
The far greater likelihood is a reunion of the kid line, with Gallagher rejoining Alex Galchenyuk and Brandon Prust.
He took two penalties against the Islanders, but I can't see Lars Eller getting the Ryan White treatment. But I have no idea where Eller should be playing.
Look, one Shootout loss won't have Therrien dismantling his lines. But the coach – whose press conference ended abruptly when some media wretch started talking on his cellphone – has some concerns to address.
The power play continues to sputter. And after a run of 11 successful kills, the PK was lit up for Matt Moulson's two goals – one a tip and the other a wide-open look that you should never give a 30-goal sniper.
And what's with the Canadiens and third-period leads?
• Third game of the season in Washington, the Canadiens take a 4-0 lead into the third period. They're outshot 11-2, but Carey Price stops everything except a late goal by Joey Crabb.
• Super Bowl Saturday afternoon, the Canadiens trounce Buffalo … but they're outshot 18-11 in the third priod.
• In the course of blowing a 4-2 lead and losing in a Shootout in Buffalo, the Canadiens are outshot 10-5 in the third period.
• With a 3-1 lead and 1:43 remaining in Tampa Bay, the Canadiens give up two goals before winning the Shootout.
• In the scoreless snoozer in Florida, the Panthers had a 13-9 shot advantage in the third period.
Against the Islanders, the Canadiens took a 3-2 lead into the final 20 minutes and managed a measly four shots at Evgeni Nabokov in the third period. The Islanders goaltender, who was better than Carey Price Thursday night, stopped them all.
Perhaps it's the Canadiens' lack of size – achingly illustrated by the valiant Brandon Prust dropping them with the Islanders' 6'8″, 250-lb defenceman Joe Finley. A small team may get worn down after 40 minutes. And Team Smurf was playing its fourth game in six nights.
It doesn't get easier. After the Rangers visit, the Canadiens play 11 of 15 games on the road.
We should know, by the end of March, whether there will be hockey in Montreal come May.
