Analysis & Opinions - ecfr's blog
Reinventing Europe
This is a response to Mark Leonard's recent paper, "Four Scenarios for the Reinvention of Europe."
The making of Europe has been a perplexing and often difficult undertaking. The UK and some of the Scandinavians have rejected becoming members of the inner core. Turkey has been put on the shelf. The expansion of Europe, as George Gershwin sang of women, "is a sometime thing." National parliaments have hesitated to accept and sometimes rejected new versions of the European constitution. Through it all, however, the European idea and the basic forward momentum of European integration has proceeded despite fits and starts. Europe has undergone an incremental transformation of the de facto into de jure after crisis subsides. The resolution of each crisis has led to a higher level of legal and political integration.
It is not entirely surprising that national support for European institutions is now at a low ebb. Publics assumed that integrating markets and currencies would lead to a freer flow of goods, capital, and perhaps labour, and that higher economic growth as well as trade would follow as a result. But the Great and elongated Recession of 2008-09 has been a huge check to European growth and energies and imbalances have come to the fore. Countries in surplus have had to bail out countries in deficit. The deficit beneficiaries had to cut national expenditure and welfare payments. Countries in surplus have been forced to bear the brunt of such bailouts, and they also need to act to create surpluses in trade with the erstwhile debtors. Private German capital should now be buying assets in Greece, Spain, and Italy and the government should encourage German tourists to visit and spend money in these countries. (The United States and Europe have requested Beijing to spend abroad to rebalance its surpluses. Germany needs to do the same within the Eurozone.)
No country needs to leave the inner core. In certain respects if Greece or Spain did not exist, they would have to be invented. Their participation in the euro keeps the value of the currency down from $1.80 to $1.20 or $1.30 or so, thereby ensuring the success of German exports to the rest of the world. The competition with China requires a few dilettante members to assure European and French international penetration of foreign markets.
As European growth resumes, integration will continue, and it can be of different types. The Schengen model is most tempting because it is the easiest to achieve and it does not raise permanent barriers between an inner and outer zone of EU members. An outsider can join the 27 and later be admitted to the 17 as Poland will shortly do. Iceland will want to be in the Eurozone. And there are countries in the former Soviet Union, like Ukraine, that will be wooed to join a customs arrangement with Russia if they are not put on a faster track for European admission. Turkey might agree to join the free trade arrangement, if not the Eurozone.
The world is entering a new phase as Middle Eastern conflicts and NATO operations there come to an end. In terms of Balance of Power only a united West that brings the United States and the European Union together, as proposed by Angela Merkel in 2006, can offset a rapidly developing China. A newly united West in economic terms can deal on even or superior terms with a obviously disunited East, where Japan, India, Vietnam and Korea obviously do not share China's vision of the economic and political future of the world.
When Jean Monnet proposed the first integrative steps for Europe to take, he was thinking of creating a powerful economic instrumentality that would contend on equal terms with the then superpowers, the United States and the Soviet Union. Now, if Europe and America pursue the closer economic union that Angela Merkel envisions, Europe can think of a new united West which can deal on equal terms with a rising but disunited East.

Resident Small Game Program
The Resident Small Game Program involves management, research and population monitoring activities for bobwhite quail, rabbits, and squirrels. Personnel also develop and participate in the wild turkey research conducted by the Department. Cody Cedotal (email@example.com), Resident Small Game and Wild Turkey Program Leader, coordinates the Resident Small Game Program.
In order to meet public demands for resident small game, the Resident Small Game Program and Technical Services Program offer technical assistance to improve habitat on public and private lands. Program biologists also conduct research to assess and improve management. Several population monitoring surveys are conducted by regional and program biologists to develop population indices and track population trends of small game species. Personnel also represent the Department on various committees which are involved in monitoring and formulating regional and national programs which may have impacts on small game wildlife.
Population Status
Data from the North American Breeding Bird Survey show bobwhite quail populations in Louisiana have declined by about 75% since 1966. The Department's fall surveys also illustrate a general downward trend. This is due primarily to habitat degradation. Clean farming techniques in the agricultural regions of the state have all but eliminated quail from these areas. Intensive pine management that features short-rotation densely stocked monoculture pine stands and infrequent prescribed burning has reduced quail populations in the forested upland regions of Louisiana. In addition, a number of unusually dry summers in recent years has resulted in poor reproduction and exacerbated the effects of habitat degradation. However, much of the habitat loss occurred during the 1970s and 1980s. As a consequence, in recent years the population indices have been more stable and influenced primarily by summer weather conditions.
In an effort to address long-term population declines in bobwhite quail and other birds dependent on grassland habitat, the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries has joined 25 other National Bobwhite Technical Committee (NBTC) member states to support the National Bobwhite Conservation Initiative (NBCI) to help restore bobwhite quail to their former range. The NBCI was established by the member states to work fulltime at the state and national level to address landscape scale challenges limiting bobwhite quail. To this end, a unified bobwhite quail restoration strategy named "NBCI 2.0" has been established. The following NBCI information is available for use by state, federal, and private land managers:
Since 1967, Louisiana's bobwhite quail populations have declined by approximately 75%. Louisiana is not the only state where bobwhites have declined precipitously. Bobwhite populations across the southeastern U.S. have declined by about 60%. This downward trend is not limited to bobwhite quail. Other species that require similar habitat such as eastern meadowlark and loggerhead shrike have also exhibited significant population declines.
There are a variety of programs available through federal and state agencies that provide technical and financial assistance to landowners willing to implement practices beneficial to quail and grassland birds. LDWF is involved in efforts to inform landowners and promote participation in these conservation programs.
Reversing the downward trend in quail and grassland bird populations will not happen overnight. This is a long-term venture that will require the commitment and cooperation of numerous organizations, agencies, and most importantly, individual landowners. Agencies, organizations and landowners will have to work together in a coordinated effort to restore the ecosystems and habitat that are home to bobwhite quail and many other species.
LDWF and its partners are engaged in a number of projects that are directed at restoring the type of habitat required by quail.
- The West Gulf Coastal Plain Prescribed Burning Initiative and East Gulf Coastal Plain Prescribed Burning Initiatives – These projects fund 1 prescribed burn for private landowners with suitable habitat. The goal is to familiarize the landowners with the benefits of prescribed burning and work with landowners to conduct subsequent prescribed burns. Over 13,000 acres have been burned across Louisiana through these initiatives since they began in 2008.
- Through the Technical Services Program, LDWF provides assistance to landowners seeking to manage and improve habitat for bobwhites and other wildlife.
- Working with partners, LDWF is engaged in regional efforts to improve habitat used by quail and other wildlife. This includes the Lower Mississippi Valley Joint Venture, East Gulf Coast Joint Venture, TX/LA Longleaf Taskforce, and West Louisiana Ecosystem Partnership.
- In conjunction with the U.S. Forest Service the department is working to establish a bobwhite focus area on the Kisatchie National Forest. This area will be subject to practices specifically designed to improve bobwhite habitat. Surveys will be conducted to monitor population response.
- LDWF, working with the U.S. Forest Service has established a bird dog training area on the Vernon Unit of Kisatchie National Forest. This adds to current BDTAs on Sandy Hollow WMA, Bodcau WMA, Lake Ramsay WMA, and Sherburne WMA.
- LDWF has entered an agreement with the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service to provide technical assistance to landowners interested in creating and managing quail friendly habitat in longleaf pine habitats.
- LDWF periodically conducts landowner workshops on a variety of topics, including management practices that favor bobwhites and other grassland birds.
- LDWF makes available specialized native grassland drills and burn trailers to landowners to aid them in their efforts to improve bobwhite habitat.
- LDWF prescribed burns approximately 2,000 acres each year on the Sandy Hollow and Lake Ramsay WMAs to improve bobwhite habitat.
- LDWF is working with the Louisiana Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation to conduct several thousand acres of additional prescribed burns on other WMAs to enhance wild turkey and quail habitat.
A statewide quail population survey (see documents section below) is conducted each fall. This survey is used to develop an index to the quail population for various habitat regions throughout Louisiana. Approximately forty 19-mile routes are run throughout the state in late October and early November. The routes are randomly located in 5 major habitat types.
To help determine bobwhite quail survival rates, harvest rates, nesting success, habitat use and movements, 178 bobwhites were radio-tagged and 245 were banded over several years on the Sandy Hollow Wildlife Management Area. Findings include:
- Only 6.4% of bobwhites survive over 1 year. Most of the mortality was due to predators, both avian and mammalian.
- Overall, less than 1 in 12 birds were taken by hunters and hunters harvested birds from less than 1/3 of the coveys. However, when a covey was found, about 1 in 5 birds were bagged. Both harvest rates (with crippling loss also considered) are within the recommended 30% value for the South.
- Quail move considerable distances in the fall and spring. One covey moved over 3 miles and movements of 1 mile were common.
As a response to interest in releasing pen-reared bobwhites for population enhancement by some users of the Sandy Hollow WMA and quail hunters in general, 33 pen-reared female bobwhites were radio-tagged and released in groups on the area in good habitat and provided supplemental food and water. Within 3 days, 52% of the birds were dead and by the 12th day, 84% had died. Within 2 weeks, 97% of the birds were dead. Most of the mortality was due to predation. This study affirms the general principal that most pen-reared quail fare poorly when released into the wild. The potential problems caused by pen-reared introductions, such as disease introduction, outweigh the marginal benefits.
From 1984-2000, almost 8,500 wings were collected from hunters to determine production indices for quail and peak hatch periods. Average chicks per adult hen was relatively high (greater than 6), but it varied greatly between years due to weather. Quail wings (see documents section) highlight the importance of July and August to quail production in Louisiana.
National Farm Policy often shape quail and other farm wildlife habitat. Many Farm Bill issues are currently being considered in Washington. The Wildlife Society maintains a website with up-to-date Farm Bill issues. Other bobwhite information can be obtained at the NBCI website www.bringbackbobwhites.org.
SQUIRRELS and RABBITS
Population Status
Specific population surveys are not conducted for these species; however, the Department's annual hunter harvest survey provides indices to population trend. The 2010 – 11 survey estimated that 72,500 squirrel hunters harvested 948,100 squirrels. During the same period 36,700 rabbit hunters harvested 272,900 rabbits. It is likely that increased conversion of hardwood forests and stream bottoms to pine forests and poor mast crops have contributed to lower squirrel hunter success. In the absence of major habitat modifications, year to year fluctuations in rabbit and squirrel populations are due primarily to summer rainfall amounts in the case of rabbits and prior year's mast crop in the case of squirrels.
Louisiana has 2 species of rabbits: eastern cottontails and swamp rabbits. Although the cottontail is considered more of an upland species and the swamp rabbit a wetland (wooded) species, both species occur within our coastal areas.
Rabbits can have high productive rates in Louisiana when habitat and weather conditions are good. Adult cottontails may have as many as 6 litters per year and young of the year may contribute another 25% to the production.
Biologists monitored rabbit population response to rotational burning regimes on an old field alluvial site on Sherburne WMA for 6 years. Rabbit use suggested that 2 or 3 year burning cycles were optimal for rabbits.
Louisianahas 2 species of squirrels: gray squirrels and fox squirrels. However, there are 2 recognized subspecies of gray squirrels and 3 subspecies of the fox squirrel. In addition, melanistic (black) color phases in each species.
In good production years, adult squirrels will have 2 litters--one in the spring and one in the late summer.

[quote]Staal Shoulders Full Workload this Summer
Monday, 08.08.2011 / 10:54 AM
Features By Sam Kasan
Last summer, Penguins center Jordan Staal spent a lot of time sitting around and resting. His ability to workout and condition himself was hampered by an infection in his foot – which forced him to miss training camp and the opening weeks of the 2010-11 regular season.
However, this season Staal hasn't had to deal with any such setbacks. And thanks to that, he said he's feeling as good as he's ever felt.
"I missed a lot last year," he said. "Hopefully, knock on wood, I'll have a full season playing hockey and enjoying training camp and what that brings, and seeing the guys again.
"I'm excited about getting a full summer workout in. In years past we've made it pretty far (in the playoffs) for a couple years and didn't have much of a summer, and I was hurt last summer. I've had a really good summer working out. My body feels great. I feel confident about the season. I'm excited about it. It should be fun."
Staal, who is spending his summer in his hometown of Thunder Bay, Ontario, has also been working with former Penguin fitness freak Gary Roberts. Staal and his younger brother Jared have been training on a plan designed for them by Roberts.
"Jared wanted to work out with (Roberts), so I decided to help him out," Staal said. "We flew down (to Toronto) a few times now just to get updates and new phases. I've seen Gary a few times this summer. We've been working pretty hard. Working out six times a week and doing the best we can."
Roberts sets up a month-long regime for the Staals. The two brothers meet with Roberts for a couple days at the beginning of each month to go over the routine. Then they fly back to Thunder Bay and work on the program while staying in touch with Roberts.
"We just go down there for a day or two and get the lowdown for the next month," Staal said. "Then we take off. We have a trainer up here that we work with. That's pretty much how the workouts have been going."
But it hasn't been all work this summer for Staal. At the conclusion of the season he joined teammates Sidney Crosby and Paul Martin and former teammate Max Talbot for a trip to Cannes, France.
"It was during the film festival so we stayed there," Staal said. "It's a whole other world over there. We didn't do anything too crazy. We were there for a week. It was a lot of fun. We toured the city and enjoyed our time off."
Other than a quick trip to Las Vegas, Staal has pretty much stayed in Thunder Bay this offseason.
"I've been up at Thunder Bay basically the whole summer hanging out at a camp or on the lake," he said. "I'm golfing in town and spending time with family and friends."
And fortunately for Staal, his father Henry hasn't put him to work yet on the family farm this summer.
"I haven't even gone into the field yet. I haven't done anything like that. I'm off the hook on that one now," Staal joked.
But as the summer winds down and Staal's workouts begin to ramp up, his adrenaline is starting to kick in about the upcoming season. The healthy returns of Crosby and Evgeni Malkin and the offseason moves made by general manager Ray Shero has Staal anxious to get the season started.
"I'm really excited. It'll be nice to play with Sid and Geno again, first off. With the additions we have this summer, it makes it even more exciting," Staal said. "I'm excited about getting the season going and getting things started. With the players we have it'll be pretty interesting to see how we do."

What would be the best way to position your logo?
What I usually do is create a div and put it inside like this…

But lately surfing and looking at other sites I noticed that some of them use an H1 tag and add the logo as the background something like this…
Some Text Here
then indent the text and add the logo as background using CSS, something like this.
h1 a {background: url("/images/logo.png"); text-indent: -9999px;}
and I was wondering what would be the best way to do this as far as SEO or semantically correct.
I'm just trying to figure the best way.
Thanks a lot.
There are different argument for all sorts of methods. The logo is usually not the main heading on the page, so I think there's an argument for wrapping it in a
, with normal text (e.g.
My Company
) and then absolutely place the logo image over the top of that text. That way, if images are off, the text still appears.
Here's a example of that:Header replacement
Thanks a lot for your help!
Ok it looks like between the two sample I posted the second is the best way but instead it needs to be wrapped in a p tag then absolutely place the logo image over the top of that text.
Is my first option a NO, NO option?
Thanks for your help
Others may disagree about the
, but it's my current preferred option.
It's quite ok, really, and probably the better of your two suggestions. With images off, most browsers will show the alt text instead, which is quite good. (It annoys me that Safari doesn't show the alt text, TBH, but there you go.
In a way, it could be argues that the logo is pretty much just decoration, so that option is quite feasible, really.
IMHO. If you lean toward using a P use DIV instead. the BRAND IDENTITY is NOT a paragraph, and shouldn't be semantically marked as such. ( BTW,its ok to use a DIV A ( without a P, as long as you dont have other block elements inside that DIV...) in other words, direct children of a DIV are all blocks or all inline...)
Thanks a lot for your comments!
Why not leaving the text out and just put the logo on the page and declaring width and height in the HTML , without wrapping it in a container? The alt-text will take care of people with images off.
It's not a bad solution, but alt text doesn't display in all browsers, such as Safari.
That's all I did on my bread and butter site. Just wrapped the img in an anchor. Then use the page heading as the h1.
Ah, thanks. Being a Windows user I didn't know that.
Yeah, it's an annoying feature (or lack of it) in Safari. (BTW, you can get Safari for Windows. )
Only safari not chrome too?
I have recently started adopted this technique posted by deathshadow, I think it provides the best of all worlds. Besides that I generally place the site brand in a p element. Its not the main heading, so it shouldn't be treated as such.
Yikes, yeah, Chrome too. Never thought to test that.
Yep, that's the same as what I posted above. Does seem to be the best method, though its one drawback is that the image can't be transparent.
That's pretty retarded. What does webkit think alt is only for google?

Alright folks, let's say you've lost your root password, or simply cannot log in as root after a hard drive install, and have no privileged users on your system. I'm about to show you how to get back in the game as root with a quick and dirty password-change hack.
For this tutorial, everything that is italicized is a user action. Anything in <angle brackets> is a keystroke. If it has a + beside it, it means press the keys at the same time.
// Changing the root password:
= - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - =
Reboot your computer. Wait for the grub screen... Press <ESC> when you're prompted.
Highlight the first option.
Press <e>.
Highlight the kernel line.
Press <e>.
Press <TAB>. You'll get an error message.
Press <ESC>.
Press <e> again.
Using your arrow keys, scroll back and change ro to rw
At the end of the line add: init=/bin/bash
Press <Enter>
Press <b>
Type at the prompt: passwd root
Enter the new password twice.
Press <CTRL>+<d> to cause a nice Kernel Panic. This will cause your system to hang.
Press and hold your power button till it shuts down. Power back up and let it boot into BackTrack normally.
Log in as root with your new password.

uhoh this should be fixed a thief or nosy person can view your files with this vunerability
Core i7-720QM
Nvidia GeForce GT 320M
BT5-64bit x WIN7-64bit DualBoot
EDIT: * When I say "this way", I actually meant by resetting the administrative/super user password. Obviously this exact method wont work on a Windows box, but there are alternative ways by which a Windows Administrator account can have its password changed locally without logging on. Ditto for other Operating Systems.
Also, since physical access to the box is required for this method, physically securing the box will also work to provide security, as an alternative to encryption.
Last edited by lupin; 02-05-2010 at 01:15 AM. Reason: Clarification
Capitalisation is important. It's the difference between "Helping your brother Jack off a horse" and "Helping your brother jack off a horse".
The Forum Rules, Forum FAQ and the BackTrack Wiki... learn them, love them, live them.
To disable the xX_Spiidey_Xx hack so that you buddies don't pwn you with this little xploit, do the following:
1.) From a terminal type "grub-md5-crypt" <enter>
2.) Enter a password for the grub menu
3.) Re-enter your password
This will generate an md5 hash of that password.
4.) Type "nano /boot/grub/menu.lst" <enter>
You are looking for this entry:
## timeout sec
# Set a timeout, in SEC seconds, before automatically booting the default entry
# (normally the first entry defined).
timeout 3
Add the following line right below it:
password --md5 <hash> (replace the <hash> with the md5 hash that was generated, copy and
paste if you must)
5.) Hit <ctl & o> to write out the file to menu.lst
6.) Hit <ctl &x> to exit
Now when you reboot, hitting <esc> at Grub boot will present the kernel options but you will need to type the letter p to enter a password before passing any args to the kernel.
Again, it's all useless if one can access your system with an alternative method (LiveCD, etc..) as Lupin stated and setting BIOS password is pointless as there are lists all over of backdoor passwords for Phoenix, AMI, Award, etc.. not too mention removing the battery, changing jumpers on the motherboard...
The only way to be safe is to encrypt.
@ Snayler: Yes, absolutely. Physical access to machines is the first place I'd look to get into them. THEN I'd aim for remoteness. So yes, a BIOS password would be an efficient deterrant, but bear in mind that BIOS passwords can be dumped quite easily (CMOS battery anybody?).
@ lupin: Yup, as far as I know, this method, or quite similar can be used to root any *nix box out there.
@ skinnypuppy: Glad you posted a band-aid; when I wrote this tut I hadn't thought of the scare it could put into people.
Again, folks, the only "real" way to secure your computers is to keep them under lock and key, and for even greater security, unplugged. There are ways to change any user's passwords on a *nix box just by booting live. Encrypting your disk is one of the best ways to secure your software, but bea in mind that there are several forensics tools offer disk and hash decryption as well.
thou shalt treat all computers as thou wouldst treat thyself, for thou art the creator of thine own problems.
Between, this helped me to 'recover' my password, so thank you ;D
Guess I don't everyone's hardware resources.... so I might I go about popping the CMOS battery in a VM?

Hurricane Preps Should Include Evacuation Plans
Hurricane season starts June 1st.
And, an evacuation plan is among the preparations South Floridians should be making.
Emergency management officials say families should communicate to know where everyone is supposed to go in the event there is order an evacuation.
Mary Ann Adams, with vehicle location subscription service OnStar, says it all starts with the basics.
"Stay attuned to the weather forecast, and make sure that you listen to your public safety officials. If they ask to evacuate, make sure that you evacuate with plenty of time, so you're not stuck in traffic," said Adams.
Adams says vehicle location systems like OnStar can help subscribers if they need help with evacuation routes, access to shelters, updated crisis information, and assistance with contacting emergency responders.
The technology can be very useful before a storm as it relates to evacuations, Adams says.
There are also many mobile apps for hurricane tracking that can provide tips and up-to-the-minute information on evacuation orders.

Arnold School to present award-winning film, 'Aphasia'
The Arnold School of Public Health at the University of South Carolina will celebrate its 35th anniversary Friday, Oct. 22, with a showing of the award-winning film, "Aphasia," for the annual Winona B. Vernberg Distinguished Lecture.
The annual lecture, which is free and open to the public, will begin at 1 p.m. in the Russell House Theater. Dr. Julius Fridriksson, a renowned stroke and aphasia researcher at the Arnold School, and actor Carl McIntyre, whose story inspired the film, will speak.
The lecture is named for the school's founding dean, Dr. Winona B. Vernberg.
The 45-minute film tells McIntyre's personal story. An accomplished actor, McIntyre found his life changed dramatically in 2005 when he suffered a massive stroke that left him with a speech disorder known as aphasia.
Caused by damage to the language regions of the brain's left hemisphere, aphasia affects one in every 300 people in the United States. McIntyre's stroke left him with an inability to speak and coordination problems. But his determination to regain his speech and coordination, which is chronicled in this film, have led to marked improvement and new acting roles.
"Aphasia" has been selected for showings in numerous international film festivals, including the prestigious Foyle Film Festival in Northern Ireland in November.
Fridriksson, one of the world's leading researchers in stroke and aphasia, said McIntyre's story will resonate with thousands of South Carolinians who have had family members and friends affected by stroke.
"South Carolina has one of the highest rates of stroke," he said. "What many people don't realize is that stroke is the No. 1 cause of disability among Americans – higher than accidents, Alzheimer's or Parkinson's disease. Stroke is a serious public-health issue, and Carl's story brings to life the first-hand problems that many stroke patients deal with every day."
The showing of the film follows a major study on aphasia by Fridriksson that was published recently in the Journal of Neuroscience.
Winona B. Vernberg Lecture
- What: Annual lecture named for Arnold School of Public Health's founding dean
- Who: Dr. Julius Fridriksson, aphasia researcher, and actor Carl McIntyre, subject of film, "Aphasia," to speak

Science of Parenting: Help Children Cope with Anger
Sometimes life is not fair — and that really can make a child mad. But adults can help children learn how to cope with their anger in positive ways. During February, family life specialists Donna Donald and Lori Hayungs offer tips for parents and teachers in the Science of Parenting blog from Iowa State University Extension and Outreach.
"Just like adults, children can get mad, stressed and frustrated. If children don't know how to cope with anger, stress and frustration in positive ways, it can build up over time. Then parents, teachers and the children themselves will have problems," Donald said.
"This month we'll share ideas on how adults can help children learn how to handle anger effectively," Hayungs added. "We'll also talk about when it may be appropriate to seek professional help for a child with anger issues."
Learn more from tips on the blog throughout the month of February and in a five-minute podcast.
Through the Science of Parenting, www.scienceofparenting.org, ISU Extension and Outreach specialists share and discuss research-based information and resources to help parents rear their children. Parents can join in the conversation and share thoughts and experiences, as well as how they handle parenting responsibilities.

Post subject: Offseason Decision Points Jairus Byrd & Andy Levitre
Front Office has put forward genuine effort to extend core players. Latest was OG Kraig Urbik's 4 Years 13.3 million deal on December 16, 2012.
The Fitzpatrick extension (6 Years 59.0 M w/ 24. M Guaranteed) rightfully deserves criticism, but the other extensions were wise and rarely discussed.
RB Fred Jackson 2 Years 8.0 M (3.0 M Guaranteed)
WR Stevie Johnson 5 Years 36.5 M (19.5 M Guaranteed)
TE Scott Chandler 2 Years 5.45 M
OG Kraig Urbik 4 Years 13.3 M (7.0 M Guaranteed)
DT Kyle Williams 6 Years 39.0 M (17.0 M Guaranteed)
Avoided overpaying for Fred Jackson, who deserved a raise and who knew Spiller would be a Star. Reached a mutually beneficial extension with Johnson without Franchise Tag Drama, though awfully similar to Lee Evans' deal. Retained a quality TE at market rate. Injuries will happen, but the Bills locked up one of the leagues most dominant DTs at below market rate.
Under Nix stewardship, the Bills haven't overpaid, avoided paying a premium for being in a small market. Players that detested Buffalo departed, most notably Marshawn Lynch, and the culture of the team has improved.
This offseason, the Bills must make decisions with Corey McIntyre, Tashard Choice, Andy Levitre, Bryan Scott, Leodis MeKelvin & Jairus Byrd.
Corey McIntyre
Useful piece, but team could want more playmaking at the position. Not going to have lots of teams interested.
Tashard Choice: Resigned for 700,000 in 2012
Based on two factors. Chan Gailey coached Choice at Georgia Tech & his Agent also represents Mario Williams. Package deal of sorts for a quality 3rd RB. Interchangeable part that should be allowed to test UFA.
Andy Levitre
Represented by Athletes First's David Dunn- whose clients include Kraig Urbik, Eric Wood, Scott McKillop. Franchise Tag Candidate football wise, but allowing him to land a lucrative OG deal avoids Franchise Tag drama & improves efforts to retain Wood in due time.
Bryan Scott
Quality UFA signed under Perry Fewell has been a versatile player during multiple regimes. Emergence of Nigel Bradham makes resigning less of a priority.
Leodis McKelvin
11th Overall in 2008- A dangerous return man and inconsistent cornerback. Worth making an offer to, but I expect his departure.
Jairus Byrd
Most important piece to the puzzle, and one of the most talented players at his position in the league today. 26 Years Old, Bills have done everything to ensure a strong working relationship with his Agent Eugene Parker. WR James Hardy, OT Jason Peters, DE Alex Carrington. Also has strong relationship with Pittsburgh (Doug Whaley).
Byrd is going to seek top safety money, a position lacking talent in the league today. The mold of the position has changed with new player safety rules, as teams covet rangy cover guys in Byrd's elk. The Franchise Tag is an almost near certainty, the question being does Parker attempt to broker a trade or holdout? Ultimately, what is Byrd worth longterm?
Precedent Transaction Analysis:
2007: Indianapolis Bob Sanders (5 Years 37.5 M w/ 20.0 M Guaranteed)
2008: Minnesota Madieu Williams (6 Years 33.0 M w/ 13.0 M Guranteed)
2010: New York Giants Antrel Rolle (5 Years 37.5 M w/ 15.0 M Guaranteed).
2011: San Diego Eric Weddle (5 Years 40.0 M w/ 19.0 M Guaranteed)
2011: Oakland Michael Huff (4 Years 32.0 M w/ 12.0 M Guaranteed)
2011: Pittsburgh Troy Polamalu (4 Years 36.55 M w/ 10.55 M Guaranteed)
2011: New Orleans: Roman Harper (4 Years 26.0 M w/ 14.5 M Guaranteed)
2012: Oakland Tyvon Branch (4 Years 26.0 M 17.1 M Guaranteed)
2012: Cincinnati Reggie Nelson (4 Years 18.0 M w/ 10.5 M Guaranteed)
2012: Tennessee Michael Griffin (5 Years 35.0 M 15.0 M Guaranteed)
2010: Kansas City Eric Berry (6 Years 57.5 M w/ 34.0 M Guaranteed)
Initially Franchised, Agent Eugene Parker will contend he's the Best Safety in the league today at 26 & is entering his prime. Buffalo must incentivize Byrd- if he were to test UFA he'd land a payday. The Franchise Tag says Not So Fast. Parker will float the Berry deal which was under the confines of the Old CBA. He'll argue that making Byrd the top paid safety in the league is in fact a deal for the Franchise.
The second question is does Byrd want to stay in Buffalo? Would he prefer joining his father in Chicago? Does he have aspirations of playing in a big market? These are the important questions. 5 Years 41.0 M w/ 20.5 M Guaranteed should be the offer. Pay him near elite CB money to be a All Pro Caliber FS.
Roster has talent. Significant attention in the coach hiring must be paid to Player Development. The young guys have shown flashes, but lack consistency. The Gailey & Wannstedt staff failed in this regard.
Andy Levitre will be tough to see depart. The poison pill Vikings contract to Steve Hutchinson (7 Years 49.0 M) changed the guard position value in free agency. Carl Nicks signed a 5 Year 47.5 M deal last offseason. While LeVitre is not as dominant as Nicks, he's an elite Guard.
Jairus Byrd is a Core Player that must be retained. Many fans want to keep them all which is not feasible. Keep the Ones you Cannot Live Without.
I'm The guy who got shunned on FFs for arguing J.J. Watt should be selected 1st Overall in the 2011 Draft. I also thought Gabe Carimi would be a Perennial Pro Bowler. Live & Learn

You said Byrd would stay in Chicago with his dad but Lovie Smith left and all of the coaches were let go, so the big question is if he wants to play where his dad is maybe he might not have to go anywhere if bills decide to sign Lovie since his staff will more then likely follow

Francesco Criscuolo of Middletown, NY, a biology/chemistry major
at Mount Saint Mary College, studied sea urchins – often referred
to as the "hedgehog of the sea." The prickly looking animal – an
echinoderm related to the starfish – usually lives near rocky
shores where it feeds on seaweed and other organic material.
Julia Karsten, a junior biology/physical therapy major from
Forest Hills, NY, explains how UV light negatively affects the
percentage of sea urchin eggs fertilized, to Carl Hoegler,
associate professor of biology at Mount Saint Mary College in
Newburgh, NY. Karsten and her group were part of Investigating
Research On Campus (iROC), a seminar series designed to encourage
college wide exchange of research ideas in an informal discussion
format. Mount faculty and students from all disciplines use this
forum to present their results and findings. From left: Tom Alessi

Epidermolysis bullosa is a group of disorders in which skin blisters form after a minor injury. It is passed in families.
Junctional epidermolysis bullosa; Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa; Hemidesmosomal epidermolysis bullosa; Weber-Cockayne syndrome
There are four main types of epidermolysis bullosa:
Another rare type of epidermolysis bullosa called epidermolysis bullosa acquisita, is an autoimmune disorder.
Epidermolysis bullosa can vary from minor blistering of the skin to a life-threatening form that affects other organs. Most types of condition start at birth or soon after. It can be hard to identify the exact type of epidermolysis bullosa a person has.
Having a family history of the disease, and especially having a parent with it, is a risk factor.
Depending on the form of the condition, symptoms can include:
Your doctor will look at your skin to diagnose epidermolysis bullosa.
Tests that are used to confirm the diagnosis include:
Skin tests are used to tell epidermolysis bullosa acquisita in a child from other forms of epidermolysis bullosa.
Other tests that may be done include:
Growth rate will be checked often for a baby who has or may have epidermolysis bullosa.
The goal of treatment is to prevent blisters from forming and avoiding complications. Other treatment will depend on how bad the condition is.
The outlook depends on the severity of the illness.
Infection of the blistered areas (secondary infection) is common.
Mild forms of epidermolysis bullosa improve with age.Very serious forms of epidermolysis bullosa have a very high mortality rate.
In the severe forms, scarring after blisters form may cause:
If your infant has any blistering shortly after birth, call your health care provider. If you have a family history of epidermolysis bullosa and plan to have children, you may want to have genetic counseling.
Genetic counseling is recommended for prospective parents who have a family history of any form of epidermolysis bullosa.
During pregnanc, chorionic villus sampling to test the fetus is available. For couples at high risk of having a child with epidermolysis bullosa, the test can be done as early as week 8 - 10 of pregnancy. Talk to your obstetrician and genetic counselor.
To prevent skin damage and blistering, it may help to wear padding around injury-prone areas such as the elbows, knees, ankles, and buttocks. Contact sports should be avoided.
Patients with epidermolysis bullosa acquisita who are on steroids for longer than 1 month may need calcium and vitamin D supplements to prevent osteoporosis.

Are there any numbers? It's easy to sell out first day and make it look like a huge success if you only have 100,000 on hand vs 1,000,000. I don't know ANYONE that is going to buy a mini,, the regular ones are a big success partly due to hospitals/stores/etc starting to use them, but the mini won't really fit there I'd think...
I love my iPad 3, the screen is amazing but sometimes is completely impractical due to its size (some netbooks are smaller in every dimension except thickness). Therefore the iPad Mini, although I do look forward to next years one having a Retina Display (wishful thinking maybe?).
...and with the price difference it makes it a must. I care about my iPad 3 too much to damage it, this isn't as bigger investment so it won't be such a big deal if it get damaged.
Just my 1p's worth.
iPad screen size is what a Mac OS X tablet shoulda have been and the 7" as the iOS tablet.
No retina display = no buy
I expected it. No offense but this happens to all Apple stuff haha! Well the hand held devices anyway. iPhone Launch = same, iPad 3 launch = same. Funny how the iPad 4 is not selling out. Im with you MetallicaFan..time to stop playing around and unify the OS..One OS for both desktop and tablet(modbookpro is a great example of what can be done. Just don't like the price Now that's what i call integration. I know the price will go up but im willing to pay for full capabilities. We shall see what Apple has in store for next year.
Which to a normal logical person who loves apple and understands some of the battles they have been having with QC issues on the assembly lines, and display shortages from suppliers taken into account it would make total sense, but to an Apple fan boy somehow this statement becomes an attack on their coveted idol... lol
Until we have true numbers of the initial stock that was available for launch day delivery it's all speculation, but to assume that just because apple is "the biggest tech company" doesn't mean that they have all the back stock in the world on new products they design.http://modmyi.com/images/smilies/facepalm.gif
Oh and a side note... Supply and demand is something you should look at to... if something is limited in stock, people like you begin to assume that there is a great demand, and the value of said item goes up, or becomes a "must have" because everyone ells has it...http://modmyi.com/images/smilies/annoyed.png
They have an absolutely brilliant strategy They going to losses product with the crappy screen it's overpriced. But everyone still don't want it because even know it's overpriced it's still within reach and not dramatically more than the other tablets and it's class then next year they will come out with iPad Mini to an upgraded to a retina display 4 the same price
iPad minis are not selling out., other sites like Techno Buffalo are reporting quite the opposite.
OF COURSE it sold out when the launch stock is 2 per store.
I bet if they had 1000 per store it wouldn't be sold out and they will still have lots of stock in months too.
You cant have a tablet touchscreen OS on a desktop PC as it just doesn't work.
So having IOS on a desktop is just stupid. Try IOS without the multitouch and that'll be what its like. Try pinch to zoom with only 1 finger, oh you cant well thats what IOS will be with a mouse on a desktop.
See you Apple fanboys, I also hate Micro$oft. I have my own opinion and I say it, If you dont like it then abuse me and get banned from here. Cya

O's Machado homers, plates four runs
Baseball's top shortstop prospect leads Bowie past Erie, 8-5
By Andrew Pentis and Danny Wild / MLB.com | June 21, 2012 2:30 PM ET
MLB.com's No. 3 overall prospect collected three hits and four RBIs, going deep for the second time this month in the Bowie Baysox's 8-5 win over the host Erie SeaWolves. The game, coming hours after he was selected to the U.S. squad in the All-Star Futures Game, only helped keep his outlook bright after early-season struggles.
"I felt great. The last couple days I've been swinging well, feeling comfortable at the plate, seeing the ball well," he said. "The team's been playing well, so that's an energy boost. I'm just going up there and having fun."
Machado had endured his share of struggles this year and hasn't posted the numbers some have projected in his first Double-A season. But consider that when Machado, who is 15 days from his 20th birthday, finally broke out Thursday afternoon, he did so against a pitcher more than eight years his senior.
"I'm not worrying about what's going on with my average, I'm just going out and playing hard," he said. "Whatever happens, happens -- just have fun, basically."
Batting fifth, Machado singled home two runs in the first inning and smacked a solo shot in the third against 27-year-old left-hander Ramon Garcia, who has been pitching in the Minors since 2005.
The right-handed-hitting infielder also delivered an RBI single in the fourth facing reliever Michael Morrison and popped out in the seventh and drew a walk in the eighth to complete his day.
"We had runners second and third, I put the ball in play and fortunately, I got a base hit up the middle," Machado said of his first hit. "Two runs scored and I just had a good at-bat."
Machado's homer was his second since April, although he didn't let on whether it was a relief to see it fly out.
"I was just trying to be aggressive. I took the first pitch and he threw me the same pitch after that, so I knew what he would throw me," Machado said. "I put a good swing on it and hit a home run."
Machado has hits in nine of his last 10 ballgames, hiking his season batting average from .233 to .249 over that span. His fourth homer was his first since June 2; he didn't go deep once in May. (Expectations had risen when he homered on the season's first pitch.) Just two years removed from being the third overall pick in the 2010 Draft, the Miami-bred Machado has collected 22 extra-base hits and 28 RBIs through 68 games.
Despite the struggles at times, Machado said his experience in the Eastern League has been a positive one so far.
"It's been great -- great competition and great players," he said. "It's a tough league and I'm getting used to it, just getting adjusted to it. It's a tough league to play in, you're facing the top-of-the-line pitchers and players from each organization."
Machado, of course, fits that description: He's ranked No. 1 in the Orioles' organization and No. 3 overall by MLB.com. Before the game, Major League Baseball announced Machado would be headed back to the All-Star Futures Game for his second straight year.
"Oh man, it's going to be awesome," Machado said. "I went last year, and that was a great experience. To be a part of it again this year, it's a good opportunity and chance to meet good players ... go out, have fun and meet new guys."
Garcia (5-6) yielded five runs on seven hits -- including Orioles' No. 3 prospect Jonathan Schoop's second-inning solo shot -- over three frames.
Baysox starter Sean Gleason (2-1) gave up four runs on seven hits over five innings. Closer Greg Burke earned his 14th save with the two seamless final frames.
A day after flirting with the cycle, Erie third baseman and Tigers No. 2 prospect Nick Castellanos went 2-for-5, raising his Double-A average to .286.

La-Ross Cortez Davis left work Sunday at 11:25 p.m.
By sunrise Monday, he was dead. Firefighters summoned to his Eaton Street home to extinguish a small blaze found Davis' body, partially burned with a gunshot wound, in a bedroom. The fire was deemed an arson, according to the Fire Department.
Authorities did not release many details about the killing of Davis, 35, but his death surprised his neighbors, co-workers and family members who painted the lifelong Baton Rouge resident as a hard-working, honest man.
Firefighters arrived at Davis' home about 6:15 a.m. and found smoke coming from the house, which featured white siding and a small front porch.
Smoke was everywhere, but there wasn't much fire, Mark Miles, a Fire Department spokesman, said.
The house in the 2600 block of Eaton Street had heavy smoke damage. Some of the inside walls were visibly charred. Some furniture, too, appeared burned.
After the flames were extinguished, firefighters searching the home found Davis inside a front bedroom, Miles said.
He suffered a single gunshot wound to the head and also some burns in the fire, Cpl. Don Coppola Jr., a police spokesman, said. Davis' death is being investigated as a homicide.
Police did not release any other details about the killing, saying the circumstances surrounding Davis' death remained unclear.
Not long after Davis' body was found, the Fire Department was called to investigate a vehicle fire on Linden Street, which is a few blocks north of Eaton Street. There, they found a 2000 GMC Jimmy burning underneath a carport, Miles said.
Miles and Coppola declined to comment on whether the vehicle fire was related to Davis' death. But Davis' neighbors and family said the truck belonged to Davis.
A woman who is a neighbor described the Eaton Street neighborhood as a quiet area inhabited mostly by older homeowners. That peacefulness was interrupted early Monday morning by the swarm of police cars, fire trucks and a few barking dogs.
Before they arrived, another neighbor, Clara Myles, said she heard what sounded like a car door slamming shut.
"When they told me it was a gunshot, I said, 'Oh, that's what it was,' " Myles said.
She said she occasionally spoke with Davis, but she didn't know him personally.
"I was just shocked," Myles said.
Those who knew Davis were in disbelief in the wake of his death.
"I really don't know who would want to hurt him," Davis' mother, Ethel Davis Leagard, said. "It's a shock to everybody."
She described her son as a social man who grew up in the Capital City and attended Istrouma High School until 12th grade. Since then, he's worked a number of jobs, including stints at the St. James Place Retirement Community and a B-Quik convenience store.
"He was just hard-working," Myles said.
Most recently, he worked at the Valero service station at the corner of Plank Road and Evangeline Street called Dave Brothers. Jitendra Dave, the owner of the store known locally as "Mr. Dave," said Davis clocked out of work Sunday night as usual.
"He was a hard worker — very honest guy," Dave said, adding that Davis will be missed. Problems never cropped up between the employee and store customers, Dave said.
"Everybody loved Davis," said an employee there who identified herself only by her nickname, "Queen."
Davis' great-aunt, Vivian Washington, said her great-nephew loved taking pictures. He also loved red beans and rice and Little Debbie cakes.
"He was just a fun person," Washington said.
Davis' death marked the fifth fatal shooting in Baton Rouge in six days. Police asked anyone with information about this incident or the other shootings to call them at (225) 389-4869 or Crime Stoppers at (225) 344-7867.

Instructions for Kodi Jarvis and up:
Simply install the "Weather Fanart - Multi" addon and you're done.
System > Add-ons > Install from repository > Look and Feel > Image Collections > Weather Fanart - Multi
After installation, weather fanart is enabled automatically in Confluence.
Instructions for Kodi Isengard and earlier:
First thing you need to do is visit this forum thread http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=41650 and download the great fanart pack made by timdog82001 for us its 160mb big so not included in the skin for obvious reasons
Next you need to extract the rar file to a location of your choosing (keeping the directory structure). You will notice that the rar contains a bunch of numbered folders in it, the numbers are what xbmc uses to pick the right condition so don't rename them.
Hopefully if you did it right you should end up with a folder structure like this
-- 00
-- 01
-- 02
-- 03
-- 04
-- 47
Now in the skin go to the weather page and Nav left to get to the side menu. Go into the "Misc Options" section and uncheck "Hide Fanart" you will then need to click on the "Set Fanart Path" button and browse to the main folder you extracted the fanart too. In the case of my example above "Weather-Fanart" (not the sub folders).
Click the OK button in the browse dialog and you should now have Fanart based on the current weather conditions in the weather screen and also the home screen when the weather button is selected

text: ATCC Licensed Derivative Criteria Obtaining a License for Use of the ATCC Licensed Derivative® Emblem Companies operating in quality control microbiology and wishing to include ATCC microorganisms in their commercial products may join the ATCC Licensed Derivative program. Prior to doing so, however, they must undergo a rigorous audit process before a non-exclusive biological material and trademark license can be executed. The audit process and its associated acceptance criteria ensure that the company has the capability to maintain the integrity of the ATCC ingredient in their product and to manufacture such products according to relevant quality standards. Only those companies that meet the quality requirements of the audit process will be allowed to enter into licensing negotiations that will permit them to place the ATCC Licensed Derivative emblem on their product literature. A brief outline of the process follows: After an initial contact by a company with interest in obtaining a license from ATCC, representatives from both entities enter into a non-disclosure agreement to protect the confidentiality of the quality audit and to allow full discussion of the specifics of the possible licensing arrangement. The potential licensee discloses to ATCC the intended use and field of use of the ATCC material within the licensee company's product. ATCC collects documentation about the facilities, human resources, manufacturing, customer services and technical capabilities of the interested company. ATCC conducts a quality audit of the company according to a pre-established audit plan, analyzes the results, and provides the interested company with a confidential report. One of three audit outcomes is possible — an approval, a conditional approval or a denial. An approval allows the negotiation of a non-exclusive biological materials and trademark license to resume. A conditional approval allows the company to take corrective and preventive action before a license can be negotiated. A denial means ATCC will not enter into license negotiations until one year later, when the deficiencies cited in the confidential audit report have been remediated, as demonstrated by a new quality audit. In line with federal requirements established by FDA on current good manufacturing practices, ATCC also encourages companies to establish compliance with 21 CFR Part 820 of the U.S. federal regulations.

2) Answered above

Sorry to those people who like it!
Posted 09 August 2004 - 05:20 PM ( #14 )
Not too hard. Try garage sales, and used game stores. I see it all the time on e-bay (have just been to busy buying other things on e-bay to actually get it so far, though). It sells for less than 10 USD, usually.

Kimberly - from Pacifica, CA
You should bake the cake as soon as you have made the batter. The baking soda in the mix, used as leavening, starts to work as soon as it is mixed with liquid, so if you keep it out without baking, your cake won't rise as high as it should. That said, if you are baking cupcakes (you can make 24 cupcakes from a standard cake mix) the mix should be okay while you bake the first 12 cupcakes.

Ask The Paris Review
Life-Affirming ReadsBy Sadie Stein
Dear Paris Review,
I am currently suffering from a major depression, which has caused me to lose my job and my relationship. I see a therapist and a psychiatrist, and I believe and hope I'm beginning to recover. I have been a major reader all my life, but the depression has made it difficult for me to concentrate, so I haven't been able to read much lately. I've been reading bits and pieces of books I've read before many times (Darkness Visible, Diving Into the Wreck), trying to get something from them.
I suppose I'm looking for two different types of book as I recover: books that will show me why to live and how, and books that will allow me to escape my present torture. Both need to be pretty easy to follow—for instance, I recently bought The Myth of Sisyphus after reading William Styron's reference too it, but it's too difficult for my slow brain right now.
Thank you.
Dear friend,
I've been where you are and know exactly the state you describe: one of the many distressing aspects of depression is the inability to lose yourself—and for those of us who have always found comfort in books, this is particularly scary. It goes without saying that everyone's recovery process is different, and without a sense of your exact tastes—although it is clear you are an ambitious and curious reader with wide-ranging interests—it is a little tricky to suggest comfort reads. (After all, that is so bound up with one's history and associations, no?) But I can tell you what has worked for me, and for some people I know, and hope that the suggestions, and the knowledge that you are in good company, will prove helpful.
