Rockstar MacCachren roars to Overall, SCORE Trophy Truck victory
In Saturday's 26th MasterCraft Safety Tecate SCORE San Felipe 250
Luke McMillin captures unlimited Class 1, Caselli/Ramirez ride KTM to Overall Motorcycle & Class 22 win;
Other class winners include Frederick, Septien, Mike Lawrence, Laguna, Iribe, Robinson, Rutherford
SAN FELIPE, Mexico—
Picking up where he left off last season with his third consecutive race win in San Felipe, Las Vegas' Rob MacCachren overpowered a talent-laden field of 207 starters to capture the overall and SCORE Trophy Truck victory Saturday in the 26th Annual MasterCraft Safety Tecate SCORE San Felipe 250. SCORE released the official results today after completion of vehicle data tracking device review.
After starting first and slipping behind early in the elapsed-time race MacCachren worked his way back up to the front to re-take the lead at race-mile 172 in the No. 20 Rockstar Energy/MasterCraft Racing Ford F-150 SCORE Trophy Truck, 'Rockstar Rob' roared over and through the sandy, silty, rocky and dusty 248.64-mile course in four hours, 25 minutes, three seconds at an average speed of 56.29 miles per hour.
Surging past a strong field of 23 SCORE Trophy Trucks, the marquee SCORE racing division for high-tech, 850-horsepower unlimited production trucks, MacCachren earned his 48th career SCORE class win, his 11th career SCORE Trophy Truck race win along with his eighth class win including fourth SCORE Trophy Truck and overall race victory in the MasterCraft Safety Tecate SCORE San Felipe 250. MacCachren is now tied with Las Vegas brothers Ed and Tim Herbst with the most race wins in the 18-plus year history of SCORE's premier class. The victory was also MacCachren's fourth in the last six SCORE races.
The Las Vegas native who has also been selected to the AARWBA All-America motorsports team six times and has eight SCORE season class point championships on his racing resume, MacCachren, 46, beat not only the cars and trucks, but also the motorcycles and ATVs that competed in the popular 'spring break' event.
Round 3 of the 2012 SCORE Desert Series was held this past weekend in Mexico's picturesque fishing village of San Felipe, located 120 miles south of the U.S. border on the East side of the Baja California peninsula along the azure waters of the tranquil Sea of Cortez.
The start and finish line for the race was once again adjacent to the landmark San Felipe Arches on the outskirts of San Felipe.
After trailing Andy McMillin for much of the race until McMillin broke down at race mile 172 at the start of Azufre Wash, MacCachren sailed home for the victory with a four-minute margin over fellow Las Vegan B.J. Baldwin. Baldwin, who won this year's first round of the series in Laughlin, drove the No. 97 Baldwin Motorsports Chevy Silverado to a time of 4:29:08 with an average speed of 55.43mph.
Finishing third overall in a new, lighter vehicle built in his facility in Santee, Calif. and in SCORE Trophy Truck was award-winning chassis builder Mike Julson, Descanso, Calif., in the No. 17 Jimco/Bad Apple Racing Ford F-150 with a time of 4:34:38 and an average speed of 54.32mph.
Moving up in class after winning the season point championship the last two years in Class 1/2-1600, young lion Luke McMillin, the 19-year old third-generation desert racer from El Cajon, Calif., made his debut in the unlimited Class 1 with a stunning class win and in impressive fourth place overall finish in a Chevy-powered Jimco open-wheel desert race car. McMillin covered the course in 4:35:56 to earn the victory.
Finishing fifth overall and fourth in SCORE Trophy Truck was the team of Tim Herbst, Las Vegas/Larry Roeseler, Boulevard, Calif., just 13 seconds behind McMillin at 4:06:09 in the No. 19 Terrible Herbst Motorsports Ford F-150.
The 207 starters from 25 US States and 11 countries competing in 28 Pro and 6 Sportsman classes for cars, trucks, motorcycles and ATVs. A total of 150 adventurers officially completed the challenging course within the 11-hour time limit for an amazing 72.46 finishing percentage. The total is the ninth most in the 26-year history of the event.
Earning his first SCORE overall motorcycle victory and third for KTM in this race was the team of Kurt Caselli, Murrieta, Calif./Ivan Ramirez, Ensenada, Mexico. They divided up the riding in Class 22 on the Bonanza Plumbing KTM 450SX-F to snap the six-race San Felipe winning streak by Honda with a winning of time of 4:40:03, averaging 53.28mph.
Josh Frederick, Moapa, Nev., led his team to the Overall ATV and the Class 25 title on a Can-Am DS-450. Frederick, the 2005 SCORE season point champion in the class, split the riding time with Dillon Zimmerman, Murrieta, Calif./Cesar Lopez, San Felipe, Mexico.
Reigning series and race Class 22 point champion Colton Udall and his co-rider Timmy Weigand, Valencia, Calif., were locked in a tight battle with Caselli/Ramirez and led by seconds on corrected time on their JCR/Honda CRF450X when Weigand crashed around race mile 160 and Udall took over and brought the bike to the finish 16:39 behind Caselli/Ramirez. Weigand was reported to receive minor injuries but was flown back to the US for further evaluation.
"We started first on the road, which means we were cleaning the trail," reflected the winning MacCachren at the finish line. "At mile four, there was something buried in the ground. We were going 80 miles an hour or so and once I saw it there was no way to miss it. It popped the left front tire immediately. We had to pull over to the side of the road. (Co-rider) Cisco Bio changed the tire. We lost a few positions but once we got going again we started picking them off one at a time. I think we were second behind Andy McMillin."
"We were just trying to pace with Andy because he started right behind us. When we first got going we were about four minutes behind him at mile 24. Then we started picking up. At about mile 100, I hit a bump and the truck just took off into the desert like I had no control. I thought something broke in the steering so Cisco jumped out and looked at everything. Meanwhile I was checking the steering and everything felt fine. He jumped back in and we took off real cautious. It seemed something had gone very bad and it went great. I was trying to keep pace with Andy and going into Azufre Wash about five to 10 miles in, he was pulled over. We still had to keep a pretty good pace, we knew there were people hovering around five minutes or so and we ran strong all the way to the finish. Everything on the truck was awesome."
Following January's season-opening two rounds SCORE Laughlin Desert Challenge, the 2012 SCORE Desert Series, the world's foremost desert racing series was visiting Mexico for the first of its three annual SCORE Baja races.
SCORE Trophy Trucks have won 16 overalls in San Felipe in the 18-plus-year history of the class.
In the first 26 years of this race, Honda stillhas earned 16 overall motorcycle victories (including the 14 of the last 16 years), Kawasaki has six, KTM now has three and Husqvarna has one.
This year's 248.64-mile rugged race course utilized two washes that have never before been used for racing – Cuevitas and Amarillas. The Cuevitas Wash replaced the Three Poles to Borrego section of previous courses.
The course ran in a counter-clockwise directionand for the first time, the second half of the race course included five infamous washes–Matomi, Azufre, Huatamote and Chanate along with Amarillas before heading to the finish line. The course included four physical checkpoints as well as 51 virtual checkpoints to help insure the safety and the integrity of the challenging race course.
Leading the parade of other class winners was Donald Moss, Sacramento, Calif., who won Class 3 in his sturdy Ford Bronco for the eighth time. Moss has also won all three races so far in the 2012 SCORE Desert Series.
Earning his sixth class win in San Felipe was Jeff Kaplan, Thousand Oaks, Calif., who led a team to victory in Class 40 for riders over 40 years old on a Honda CRF450X
Also winning his third straight race this season in Class 5 as well as picking up his fourth straight class win in San Felipe was Kevin Carr, San Diego, in an unlimited VW Baja Bug.
Three racers who won their respective classes in San Felipe for the third time were Cody Robinson, El Centro, Calif. (Class 1-2/1600, Romo-VW), Mike Johnson, El Paso, Texas (Class 30, Honda CRF450X) and Joe Rice, Lomita, Calif. (Class 26, Can-Am Outlander800).

(Chenowth-Honda), Arnoldo Ramirez, Ensenada, Mexico/Richardo Malo, Mexicali, Mexico (SCORE Lites, Jimco-VW), Elias Hanna, Ensenada, Mexico (Class 7SX, Ford Ranger), Erich Reisen/Ross Burden, Canada (Class 5-1600, VW Baja Bug) and Reid Rutherford, Montrose, Colo. (Class 7-2, Mason-Chevy).
Among the other motorcycle class winners was Francisco Septien, Ensenada, Mexico (Class 21, Honda CRF450X),
Traveling all the way from Bristol, Tenn. and Bristol, Va., Justin Matney's RPM Off-Road, which opened the season with 11 total class wins in the two rounds in Laughlin in January, had a race-record eight entries in this year's MasterCraft Safety Tecate SCORE San Felipe 250 and added two more class wins to their season total.
Staying undefeated in their respective classes in 2012 for RPM with their victories in San Felipe were Eduardo Laguna, Mexicali, Mexico (Class 6, Ford Ranger), and Rodolfo Iribe, Tijuana, Mexico (Class 8, Chevy Silverado). In all, seven of the eight RPM vehicles finished with Juan C. Lopez, Tecate, Mexico sixth in SCORE Trophy Truck (Chevy Silverado), Clyde Stacy, Bristol, Va., second in Class 5-1600, Derek Fletcher, Abingdon, Va., second in Class 4 (PSD-Chevy) and Jim Bunn/John Matney, Bristol, Va., seventh in Sportsman Buggy (Geiser-Chevy). Stacy in Class 2 was the lone RPM did not finish in the race.
Besides Lopez in SCORE Trophy Truck, Stacy, Bristol, Va., leads both Class 5-1600 (1600cc VW Baja Bug) and Class 2 (PSD-Chevy). The other RPM class point leaders are Eduardo Laguna, Mexicali, Mexico (Class 6, Chevy Colorado), Rodolfo Iribe, San Ysidro, Calif. (Class 8, Chevy Silverado), Derek Fletcher, Abingdon, Va. (Class 4, PSD-Chevy) and Jim Bunn, Bristol, Va. (Sportsman Buggy, Geiser-Chevy). Stacy, Laguna, Iribe, Fletcher and Bunn each won their respective classes in both of the Laughlin races.
The fasted overall Sportsman winners were: Randy Swink, El Cajon, Calif., Ford Ranger (SPT Truck) and Mark Winkelman, Cedar Hill, Texas, Honda CRF450X.
The other MasterCraft Racing SCORE Trophy Truck entered in this year's race, the No. 30 Ford F-150, was driven by MasterCraft Safety owner Robbie Pierce, Santee, Calif. to a 10th place finish in the SCORE Trophy Truck division.
A bad weekend got worse for NASCAR Cup team owner/driver Robby Gordon, the 2009 SCORE Overall and SCORE Trophy-Truck season point champion who finished second in San Felipe in both 2009 and 2010 in the No. 77 Team Gordon Chevy CK1500. Gordon failed to qualify on Friday for Sunday's NASCAR Cup race in Las Vegas and then was forced to the sidelines early in Saturday's race with a broken transmission around race-mile 70.
In addition to season class point championships, the racers are also competing for part of the nearly $400,000 in cash purse and contingency postings each race. Drivers in the Pro car and truck classes are also attempting to earn prestigious SCORE Toyota Milestone Awards given to all car and truck class drivers who complete every required mile of the five-race season. Being presented by Toyota Motorsports for the 27th consecutive year, a total of 61 drivers are still in the hunt for the awards for the 2012 SCORE Desert Series after the first two rounds in the five-race series.
Racers are also competing for the annual SCORE Off-Roadsman of the Year awards, including the MasterCraft Safety SCORE Rookie of the Year award. All categories, except Engine Builder and Original Buggy Chassis Manufacturer, will be determined by public on-line voting while Engine and Buggy awards are determined by season points.
Round 4 of the 2012 SCORE Desert Series will be the 44th Annual Tecate SCORE Baja 500, to be held June 1-3 in Ensenada, Mexico.

BayesPiecewiseICAR (0.2.1)
Hierarchical Bayesian Model for a Hazard Function.
Fits a piecewise exponential hazard to survival data using a Hierarchical Bayesian model with an Intrinsic Conditional Autoregressive formulation for the spatial dependency in the hazard rates for each piece. This function uses Metropolis- Hastings-Green MCMC to allow the number of split points to vary. This function outputs graphics that display the histogram of the number of split points and the trace plots of the hierarchical parameters. The function outputs a list that contains the posterior samples for the number of split points, the location of the split points, and the log hazard rates corresponding to these splits. Additionally, this outputs the posterior samples of the two hierarchical parameters, Mu and Sigma^2.

text: Digital Standing Up for the Journalism Degree: It Is Not Useless By Elana Zak|June 24, 2011 Share By Elana Zak|June 24, 2011 Share Last week, the Business Insider ran a post disparaging the values of a journalism degree. In "Degrees Are Useless And Other Tips For Aspiring Journalists," author Jean Prentice writes, "anyone who has graduated from journalism school and gone on to work in the industry can tell you that a degree in journalism is useless." She argues hard work and experience are what will land you a job after graduation.She is not alone in saying journalism degrees are useless. In April, journalism topped the Daily Beast's list of 20 Most Useless Degrees. Journalism doesn't pay well and your student loans may very well be greater than your first salary as a reporter. But who goes into journalism thinking they will make a six figure salary? Being a reporter is tough, no doubt about it.Yes, it's true hard work and experience are important. But Prentice is incorrect in saying that all J-school grads would say their degree was a waste. A journalism degree is in no way useless. I, for one, am a proud 2007 graduate of the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University, where I majored in newspaper journalism. I graduated at a time when most newspapers were offering buyouts or just simply laying off staff. The future of newspapers wasn't just shaky — it was downright terrible. But I got a job at a community newspaper three months after graduation and have been gainfully employed ever since. I have never once regretted studying journalism. And I am not alone."Having the degree allowed me to get to where I am today. It's pretty much as simple as that," said Katie Zemtseff, an environmental reporter at the Seattle Daily Journal of Commerce Newspaper, who received her bachelor's in journalism from Emerson College in 2006. "I think what makes it useless is that a lot of people don't know how to use it or don't have perseverance to go after something and then they blame the degree."Another Newhouse grad, Julianne Pepitone, who graduated in '08, landed a job as a staff reporter at CNNMoney at 22. Yes, she had internships and experience, which was very important. She is also a naturally gifted writer who works hard. But by the time Pepitone had graduated college, she had already written an award-winning story about a war veteran who had been hit by an IED while serving in Afghanistan. And she wrote it for a class assignment. "By the time I was 19, I'd already come out asking a guy what's it like to see one of your best friends die in Afghanistan," Pepitone said. "I had as close to a real world experience as you could while being in school."All of the other reporters I spoke to agreed that nothing quite takes the place of actually working in a newsroom. But they also all said the skills you learn studying journalism gives you an edge. Unlike a citizen blogger or a History major, you have learned how to interview people, how to get them to call you back, etc., from experts in the field."It's true that nothing can take the place of actual reporting in an actual newsroom with actual editors," said Jen Thomas, a reporter with Abu Dhabi-based The National who has a master's in journalism from the Medill School of Journalism, Media, Integrated Marketing Communications at Northwestern University. "But you can't just throw in any old post-grad and expect them to be able to hack it. This is a cutthroat industry, and previous training isn't useless in my book." "Ultimately, journalism is one of those degrees where no matter what you learn in class, it's really working in the field where you really start to learn things and that's what finesses you and that's what makes you better," said Zemtseff, the reporter in Seattle. "But having the degree gives you a bunch of basic skills that you wouldn't have otherwise."Continue ReadingPages: 1 2 Share http://adweek.it/2kgeX0s copy Adweek Adweek

I have thought about this terrible tragedy over the weekend and its a terrible thing that happened. Absolutely awful, and I don't think there are many answers or steps we can take to prevent this from happening again. The facts are that this 20 year old kid, Adam Lanz was a monster. How can someone take 27 lives, 20 of them children and then just off them self. I think he was mentally unstable and snapped just like many others have in the past. I do have something else to say about this as well. It's not the first time we have seen something like this happen, nor will it probably be the last. It's getting worse and worse, almost to the point where you hear regular stories on the news and television about these kinds of monstrosities happening. We've had Columbine, Virginia Tech, and now Sandy Hook just to name a few.
I have been hearing a lot from both sides on gun control recently, I'll tell you first hand that conversation will go nowhere and its not a solution either. It happens to be a lose-lose solution no matter which side of the political spectrum you are on. I don't have the answers, but like most everyone else I think the best solution is prevention. I'm not sure if early detection and prevention is much of a solution in today's society though? It's an awful thing that happened and those kids and teachers had their whole lives in front of them.

After having already achieved a brown belt in a traditional form of Japanese Jiu Jitsu, Travis Haynes discovered Gracie Jiu Jitsu around 1993. At that time the highest ranking belt in his entire state was a 2 stripe blue belt. This was the dark ages in the Midwest for BJJ, and proper instruction was scarce. So it wasn't a rare thing for Travis to work all week and train locally, then take his one day off to drive a round trip from Indianapolis, Indiana, to cities as far away as St. Louis Missouri, just to take a private lesson and a group class with a certified black belt, then get in his car and drive back that same night.
Travis also made it a point to train with as many different high level coaches, competitors, and masters as possible.This was a risky endeavor, as this was also the era when training with people from other gyms could literally get you put in the hospital! Jiu Jitsu techniques in those days were treated like Government secrets, and the rival teams maintained a bitter animosity towards one another. But it was precisely this disregard for this old taboo that gave him such a jump on so many other young coaches as he would see 4, 5, or 6 variations of the same technique being taught by other instructors who had only been exposed to 1. This also led to his appreciation for leg locks, and other grappling arts such as Sambo.
Travis' Certifications: 2nd Degree Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Black Belt in Judo, former Ohio Representative for American Sambo Association

How did Tennessee's performance against Georgia Tech affect our outlook on the rest of the season? In this week's win probability (and you can still fill in your own at the bottom of that post), our readers nudge the Vols to the right side of eight wins:
|Win Probability
|Georgia Tech
|Indiana State
|at Florida
|South Carolina
|at Alabama
|at Kentucky
|Southern Miss
|at Missouri
Most noteworthy here: our readers now find Florida a more likely victory than Georgia. But the rest of the numbers show this has more to do with what the Gators did than what we saw from the Vols.
Again, it's difficult to make meaningful observations about the rest of the season from a week one date with the triple option. The good news: it's Indiana State this Saturday, which means instead of going from a grueling overtime opener to the spectacle of Bristol like last year, the Vols get a much-needed visit from an FCS school with a losing record. The bad news: I'm not sure how much we're going to learn this week either.
What is most exciting in the week two syllabus?
John Kelly, Marquez Callaway, Ethan Wolf, and…?
When Jauan Jennings went down, Quinten Dormady and Tennessee's passing game went three places. To no surprise in the Butch Jones offense, the running back played a major role: John Kelly led the team with five receptions. Marquez Callaway was a revelation with 115 yards and two scores. And Ethan Wolf was inches away from what would have been his most productive day in a Tennessee uniform.
Will we see anyone begin to emerge behind those three? Brandon Johnson caught three passes but for only 14 yards underneath against the Yellow Jackets. Josh Palmer started but finished with just one catch. Does Josh Smith play? Can Tyler Byrd get on the same page with the quarterback(s)? Do we see more from some of the backups? The more options the Gators have to prepare for, the better.
How do the Vols rotate on defense?
Plenty of conversation in this short week has emerged around the number of snaps some of Tennessee's defenders played. The Vols had five of the nation's Top 50 defenders in total tackles in week one. This is in part because Georgia Tech had 96 offensive snaps in a double overtime game. But it's also because, despite this, the Vols didn't really rotate a lot of defenders.
Ten of UT's starting eleven defenders had at least six tackles; Justin Martin was the odd man out. But behind the starters, no one recorded more than three total tackles. 116 of Tennessee's 131 total tackles came from those ten players.
The drop-off is even more striking by position:
- Linebacker: Bituli, Jumper, & McDowell 54 combined tackles; Elliott Berry 1, Quart'e Sapp 1
- Defensive End: Kongbo & Taylor 19 combined tackles; Kyle Phillips 2
- Safety: Abernathy & Warrior 22 combined tackles; Todd Kelly Jr. 3
The numbers would have been striking at defensive tackle as well had Kendal Vickers not gone out with an injury. Against 96 plays and 40+ minutes of possession, the Vols rolled with their starters all night long.
The million dollar question here: was that because the coaches didn't trust any of the backups against Georgia Tech's offense, or don't trust the backups period?
They'll trust them plenty against Indiana State, and those big names up there could use the rest. We won't know how deep Bob Shoop and Butch Jones' trust goes until Gainesville. But seeing who the fourth options are at defensive end, defensive tackle, and safety will be of note, and we'll get that information this Saturday.
We all know the injury narrative from last season. I'd like to know if guys like Kyle Phillips, Quart'e Sapp, Alexis Johnson, and any number of freshmen can help this team before they have to help this team.
Resting Heart Rate
Months ago you could already see how much healthier Tennessee's schedule was going to be this year. But I have felt it this week, and you probably have too. We got so used to our hearts beating at 150 bpm every week last fall, we bounced right back to it against Georgia Tech like an old friend who is trying to kill you. But thanks to no Bristol and no Florida-Georgia-A&M-Bama gauntlet this year, we can breathe a little deeper between Saturdays. We'll get to the Gators. But first, man, we need some Indiana State.

Independence Day is a popular time of the year to buy a new mattress. Veteran retailers like JCPenney and Macy's are not the only ones promoting great sales for the holiday. Many bed-in-a-box and online mattress companies are playing a big part in the trend, and you're are likely to find some fantastic sales on brands like Layla, Casper, Brentwood Homes, and lots more.
Independence Day is always on the fourth of July. Fortunately, you don't have to wait until the 4th to enjoy the sales. Several online mattress brands and retailers begin promoting their huge deals up to five days before the holiday date. This will give you plenty of time to compare mattresses and prices before you're ready to buy anything.
Don't fret if you forgot about all of the mattress sales happening because you were busy planning a camping trip. There will still be time after Independence Day has passed to take advantage of the discounts. Plenty of online mattress companies will keep their voucher codes live for an extra five days. Occasionally, some brands will even run their sales for up to a week and a half after the fireworks show is over.
Yes and no. Many mattress brands prefer to automatically apply the discount to your cart, while other brands choose to offer a promo code for you to submit at checkout yourself.
On the chance you're required to enter a code, the process is pretty easy to get through. Once you've decided on the mattress you want to buy click on the "add to cart" button on the page. After you look over your order, locate the box that says "apply code" or "add promo". This is where you will type in the promo code you found on our Mattress Deals Page. Click "apply" to finalize the process and your new total will reflect the discount.
Sometimes online mattress companies won't have a code on display for a discount. They will automatically apply the Independence Day code to your cart, instead. DreamCloud usually takes $200 off your order, for example.
Mattress: Awara Latex Hybrid Mattress
Synopsis: Fairly new hybrid bed-in-a-box that is made with natural and organic materials, including Dunlop latex.
Deal: $200 Off By Using Code SY200
Mattress: Level Sleep
Synopsis: Premium foam mattress that is endorsed by chiropractors and doctors for back pain relief.
Deal: 20% Off By Using Code SY20
These are just a few of the deals that caught our attention. For a full listing of all of our up-to-date Independence Day sales and voucher codes, CLICK HERE. Don't forget about our Mattress Finder Quiz if you're in need of a little assistance determining which bed is right for you.
Not all excellent-sounding mattress deals should be taken seriously at first glance. Just because a company is advertising a promotion where they're offering $250 off a bed doesn't mean it's a good sale. In an attempt to make their sales seem more appealing than they are, some online mattress companies and retailers use marketing ploys to spice things up.
One scheme that's frequently used in retail stores is when several locations have the same product, but they all call it by different names. What this does is it makes it near impossible for a customer to compare prices adequately for the same product. A sales representative can say that the mattress you really want is the last one in stock, making it the "only" one you can buy at that price. This results in you settling and purchasing the mattress because you were left to feel like you had no other choice.
We bet you're asking yourself how are you supposed to know if you're looking at a fantastic offer or not. Our mattress reviews are available for you to look at as soon as you've determined which bed you'd like to buy. A price section is included in every single one of our reviews that mentions what the average MSRP for each mattress is and the type of discount you could look forward to. This information will make it easier for you separate the poor sales from the great ones.
Mattress companies will promote excellent sales all year long, but you shouldn't be quick to nose dive into anything right away. For instance, a company will advertise a deal saying they will take $350 off of your purchase. However, the fine print requires that you spend over a certain total amount.
What this means is you would end up having to add $3,500 worth of products in your cart in order to "save" $350. So, you would have to purchase an adjustable base, pillows, and bed sheets, in addition to the mattress you were interested in.
Most companies are very honest with their deals, fortunately. That being said, it's still in your best interest to do research on your own time and read everything before you buy anything.
This is a question everyone asks themselves, regardless of what products they're shopping around for. It's no surprise to find that there has been a boom in increased online shopping sales over the last decade.
The online mattress industry is holding their own in the online shopping craze. Online retailers and bed-in-a-box companies are known for offering serviceable customer policies. Unfortunately, not every consumer, especially the older ones, have a clear understanding of how it is these policies work.
Historically, folks have been so accustomed to walking into their local mattress store that the possibility of purchasing a new bed without seeing it first had never crossed their minds. To combat this traditional way of thinking, online mattress companies offer risk-free trial periods.
Bed-in-a-box companies give you up to three months, on average, to test their mattresses from your own home. That is more than enough time to determine if a bed is the right one for you or not. If during this time you decide that you don't like the bed enough to keep it, there's no need to stress out about it because returns are usually free. The removal process is taken care of by the company.
Online bed-in-a-box and direct-to-consumer (DTC) prices are competitive with those seen in local mattress retailers because they are more modest. It's far less cost-effective to supervise a multitude of brick and mortar retail stores than it is to operate and internet business. DTC companies tend to have more free rein with offering consumers more deals.
There's no point in denying how beneficial it is to shop online. You don't have salespeople in a crowded store trying to upsell you things you don't need. You don't even have to leave your house if you choose not to. You are able to do research on your own time and test the beds for more than five minutes thanks to the risk-free trial periods offered.
We wouldn't discourage anyone from shopping in-store if they prefer to do so. However, we think there are plenty of benefits to buying a mattress online when you consider the factor we discussed above.
Most people don't realize that there are a lot of essential key points to consider when you're in the market for a new bed. We recommend checking out our Mattress Buyer Guide for the full details, but below is a brief summary of what those factors are.
Construction – There's more than one type of bed to choose from in the market. Commonly recognized options are all-foam, traditional innerspring, and hybrid mattresses. Each type has its pros and cons.
Feel – All mattresses come in a variety of feels and which you purchase is up to your personal preference. There are beds that have a latex foam feel, some have a mixed, neutral foam feel, and others have a memory foam feel.
Firmness And Sleeper Type – Don't forget to keep your primary sleeping positions in mind when you're searching for the right mattress. For instance, folks who sleep on their side tend to prefer soft beds, while those who sleep on their back and stomach prefer firmer ones.
Weight – How much you weigh directly affects the way you will perceive a mattress to feel to you. Heavy sleepers put a lot of pressure on the surface of a mattress so they will feel like it's too soft. On the other hand, lightweight sleepers don't exert very much pressure into the bed so they'll feel like it's too firm.
Temperature Regulation – If you happen to be a hot sleeper, or live in a warmer climate, you'll benefit from finding a mattress that offers cooling and airflow properties. Many online bed-in-a-box mattresses have special textiles in the cover to help you feel more cool throughout the night.
Responsiveness – How quickly a mattresses top layers resurface when pressure is released is what responsiveness pertains to. Active sleepers will find that it's easier to move around and switch sleeping positions on a bed that is responsive.
Motion Isolation – Active sleepers will also find that their partners are less likely to be jolted awake when they move around if their bed is good at isolating motion. Both individuals will get a more restful sleep if they're not woken up any time their partner gets up for a glass of water at night.
Edge Support – Finding a mattress with proper edge support will let you and your partner make good use of the its surface area. Inadequate edge support will likely leave you feeling like you might roll off onto the floor if you, or your partner, spread out on the bed.
While free shipping is typically offered for all online mattresses, the method in which they arrive to your home may vary. Mattresses may be delivered via white glove delivery, some rolled up a protective bag, and other may be rolled up and compressed in a box. If you opt in for white glove delivery, the company will have a delivery crew go to your home and set up the new bed for you. If you're interested in having your old bed removed at the time of delivery, you will need to set this up in advance with the mattress company. Some brands may charge a removal fee.
As we previously mentioned, risk-free trial periods are offered with most online mattresses. Bed-in-a-box companies offer trials to sidestep around operating several retail stores. Instead, you get the chance to test the mattress to its full potential from your own home and decide if it's right for you or not without feeling rushed. The industry standard for a trial period is 100-risk free nights, however, there are some companies that exceed that time. TempurPedic tacks on an extra twenty nights, making their trial period 120-nights long.
If you decide that you don't want to keep the mattress during the length of the trial period, the process is very straightforward. Just give the company's customer support department a jingle and they will take care of scheduling a removal date. Mattress removal is usually free and the bed gets donated to a charity. Once the bed has been removed, you will need to provide the company with proof of the pick up receipt to receive your full refund.
It's pretty clear to see why purchasing a new mattress online has become so prominent. Why would you shop in an a crowded store when you can do everything from your home?
Online mattresses come with a warranty, just like the ones you find in-store. A 10-year warranty is the industry standard. Physical flaws to the foam, like cracks or splits, body indentations larger than one inch, and manufacturing defects to the cover are a few of the things covered by the warranty.
Just like with trial periods, some companies offer warranties that far exceed the industry standard. My Green Mattress doubles it by offering a 25-year warranty. Remember to always make time to carefully read the full details about a mattresses warranty before you purchase anything.
You will come across a few online beds that come with a removable cover. However, machine washing the cover is usually not recommended. There are a select few mattresses that we've come across that do have machine washable covers. eLuxury is one such bed.
It's likely that your mattress cover will get dirty over time. A mild detergent and some warm water are all you'll need to make the cover look clean again. All you have to do is add a small amount of detergent to the messy spots and blot them with a wet washcloth.
We truly hope reading this Independence Day mattress guide has been profitable. This is a fantastic time to find a new mattress at a great deal. It's likely that you'll find several popular beds at a bargain to choose from.
In conclusion, we cannot stress enough how important it is that you do your due diligence and do some research before you spend your money on anything. Don't be quick to trust the the marketing gimmicks used by mattress companies and retailers. Reading the fine print will help you in separating the good deals from the shady ones.
Thanks again for choosing to spend your time with The Slumber Yard, and enjoy the fireworks and barbecue!

The Wonderful World of Cinema is proud to participate to The First Annual Buster Keaton Blogathon organized by Silent-Ology! The event will take place on February 8 & 9, 2015. Each participant has to choose a topic related to this silent film star. It can be a film, a moment in his career, the actors who worked with him, etc. For the occasion, I decided to talk about Free & Easy directed by Edward Sedgwick and released in 1930. It stars Buster Keaton (in his first talking picture), Anita Page, Robert Montgomery and more!
Free & Easy is a very underrated Buster Keaton's film and also not his most well-known one. However, it's a movie that I love and that I have seen so many times. This blogathon will be the occasion for me to make people curious to see it!
If you wish to participate to the blogathon, please click on this link for more information:
February will be a busy month with Buster Keaton's Blogathon, 31 Days of Oscar Blogathon and The Dolores Hart's Films Marathon! I'm so excited about all that! Hope I'll have many readers! 🙂

Yesterday on Fox News I heard a voice from the past. The elderly American China watcher was attempting to explain why the trade negotiations with China seemed to be breaking down.
Why was China reneging on certain provisions of the U.S.-China trade agreement that it had already agreed to, asked the host, who shall remain unnamed.
It was a result of the ongoing struggle between "the hardliners" and "the reformers" in Beijing, the China watcher explained.
In his view, "the reformers" had made certain concessions to the United States during the trade negotiations, but ran into trouble back home with "the hardliners," who thought they had given away too much. That's why "the reformers" were attempting to renegotiate the deal.
I have a news flash for this news analyst. His analysis is at least six years out of date.
The battle between the hardliners, who want a state-controlled economy, and the reformers, who wanted to move in the direction of the free market, is effectively over. The reformers have lost.
They lost when a hardliner by the name of Xi Jinping seized power six years ago. Shortly after taking over in late 2012, Xi set a new ideological course. It was, in political terms, a case of back to the future. The clock was turned back to the Marxist-Leninist-Maoist ideology and economic policy of the fifties and sixties.
We know this to be the case, because in April 2013 the Chinese Communist Party published a secret "Communiqué on the Current State of the Ideological Sphere." This Directive No. 9, as it is known, urged Party members to guard against seven political "perils." It was clearly the handiwork of "core leader" Xi Jinping himself.
The seven "perils" listed were "constitutionalism," "civil society," "nihilistic" views of history, "universal values," the promotion of "the West's view of media," and something the Party called "neoliberalism."
"Neoliberalism," was defined by Directive No. 9 as an attempt to change China's Basic Economic System along free market lines. It is condemned, along with the six other "perils," as one of the "false ideological trends, positions, and activities [that] all deserve note" because they threaten continued Party rule. Neoliberalism, the Party writes,
… advocates unrestrained economic liberalization, complete privatization, and total marketization and it opposes any kind of interference or regulation by the state. Western countries, led by the United States, carry out their Neoliberal agendas under the guise of "globalization," visiting catastrophic consequences upon Latin America, the Soviet Union, and Eastern Europe, and have also dragged themselves into the international financial crisis from they have yet to recover.
This is mainly expressed in the following ways:
[Neoliberalism's advocates] actively promote the "market omnipotence theory." They claim our country's macroeconomic control is strangling the market's efficiency and vitality and they oppose public ownership, arguing that China's state-owned enterprises are "national monopolies," inefficient, and disruptive of the market economy, and should undergo "comprehensive privatization." These arguments aim to change our country's basic economic infrastructure and weaken the government's control of the national economy.
To combat Neoliberalism and the other "perils," Party members were told, they must strengthen their resistance to "infiltration" by outside ideas, renew their commitment to work "in the ideological sphere," and handle with renewed vigilance all ideas, institutions, and people deemed threatening to unilateral Party rule.
In other words, not only did so-called economic reformers lose the ideological struggle six years ago, their views were officially declared a danger to the Communist dictatorship. Worse yet, Party members were explicitly instructed that those who continued to promote a market economy after this point were to be attacked and silenced.
And that is exactly what has happened.
The crackdown against advocates of economic reform (as well as human rights lawyers, media outlets, academics, Catholics, Christians, Falun Gong adherents, and anyone else who refuses to march in lockstep with the Party) that began at that time has continued unabated over the years. Not only have the reformers lost, their ideas are being censored, and some have even lost their positions.
Last December, the former Chief Economist of the Agricultural Bank of China, Professor Xiang Songzuo of Renmin University criticized the Party for statements like "private property will be eliminated," and for its "high-profile study of Marx and the Communist Manifesto." His prominence probably saved him from arrest, but his speech was immediately censored.
In March, another one of China's leading academics, Tsinghua University Professor Xu Zhangrun, was stripped of his positions and is under investigation for criticizing the regime for its unjust expropriation of private property, among other things.
The list goes on.
The only reformers who dare to speak out now are those who have escaped from China and are living abroad. And their influence within China itself is effectively … zero.
My advice to aging American China Watchers: Don't try and explain China's broken promises on trade, security, or anything else as the result of some sort of ongoing clash between China's hawks and its doves, or a dust-up between Maoist ideologues and mythical reformers.
The hawks—like Xi Jinping himself—long ago had the doves for dinner. And now they are looking at us as their next meal.
The best hope for reform in China now is Trump's newly announced tariffs. The economic earthquake that will follow will send shock waves through the current system and could possibly cause its collapse.

Pursuing your degree online is a practical and time-powerful way to make sure that you get the education you need at the pace you want. The aim of the plan is to equip students with the creative and analytical problem solving abilities they'll want to excel in monetary and managerial accounting careers. Simply because so a lot of monetary practices more than the years have led to such chaos inside the economy, schools and firms are now requiring an ethical program be element of enterprise and accounting instruction. Do not get me wrong, you should be self motivated and actually want your degree in a brief period of time. This on the web computer software is recognized as one particular of the ideal accounting options for tiny business because of their invoice templates, invoice monitoring, and reports payment. I got my associates degree by way of UOP by taking two classes at a time for 9 weeks.
Our on-line degree plan is versatile and puts you at the center of your education: you pick when and exactly where to comprehensive your coursework. Students in this fully on the web system need to enroll in a mandatory course to acquaint learners with distance education, and must also spend a one-time $300 charge. Thanks a lot for been a even though that I thought about this.I took up literature due to the fact I am fond of books but this post was a reminder that Literature is a degree that signals about the particular person that he/she is not just soon after income but has a finer taste for just about every thing in life.

Some bookkeeping and accounting apps demand familiarity with accounting and bookkeeping terminology, while other people do not.

Bothwell Regional Health Center Foundation Raising Funds For 3D Mammography Equipment
Breast cancer will be the focus of the Bothwell Regional Health Center Foundation's biannual Benefit to be held Saturday, Nov. 8.
The event, which will be held at Missouri Electric Cooperative Building on the Fairgrounds, will include a cocktail hour, dinner, program and dance with music by the band MDock.
"This is going to be a wonderful evening," said Event Chairperson Robyn Wadley. "The dinner is always fantastic, and we're having a band for the first time this year. MDock is based in Springfield and performs a lot in Branson, but they have also performed in Mexico and Japan. We think they're going to be a great addition to the Foundation Benefit."
The benefit, dubbed "Making a Difference, One Woman at a Time," is being held to raise funds to help bring 3D mammography, or tomosynthesis, to the Sedalia area. Bothwell currently offers 2D mammography at the Bothwell Diagnostic Center.
"Our 2D digital mammography unit was state of the art when the Bothwell Diagnostic Center opened in 2005, but like all other technology, mammography changes and improves," said Lisa Church, director of the Foundation and Communications. "3D mammography is relatively new, but studies have already shown that it finds up to 41 percent more of the deadly invasive types of breast cancer than 2D technology.
In a recent study done by the Journal of American Medical Association, the 3-D mammography, not only helped in early detection, but resulted in 15 percent fewer call-backs for additional imaging while at the same time spotting more tiny, aggressive and potentially fatal tumors.
"Breast cancer is so prevalent. In fact, one in eight women will develop breast cancer in her lifetime. We think women in this area deserve the very best in helping to diagnose breast cancer soon so that treatment can be more effective with better outcomes," Church said.
This month, Better Country, KIX 105, 92.3 Bob-FM and Newstalk 1050 KSIS will share stories from those going through breast cancer, those who are proud supporters and more.
If you'd like tickets to the BRHC Foundation Benefit, tickets are $150 per person and are available at brhc.org, by e-mailing email@example.com or calling (660)-826-6263. More information on the Bothwell Foundation Benefit is available on the hospital website at brhc.org or the Foundation Facebook page at www.facebook.com/Bothwell Foundation.

Latimer Hinks Solictors has welcomed proposals for advancements in the diagnosis of dementia but warns that relatives and carers should be aware of issues surrounding both diagnosis and misdiagnosis.
The NHS has proposed that it will give GP surgeries £55 for every patient on their list who has been diagnosed with dementia in the six months up to next March, as part of a drive to get the rate of diagnosis up from about 50% to two-thirds of all those who develop the condition.
The Darlington based firm has a team specialising in issues of capacity including property and financial affairs, health and personal welfare, the registration process for Enduring and Lasting Powers of Attorney and Court of Protection matters. The team also advises in contentious Probate, Trustee and Attorney cases where capacity may well be an issue.
Daniel Williams, a solicitor at Latimer Hinks, said: "This is an example of the seriousness the Government is attaching to dementia. It also emphasises that there will be a growing number of cases of dementia being diagnosed in the coming years, which makes it more important than ever that everyone is aware of the issues surrounding capacity.
"If individuals lose their mental faculties and they do not have in place an appropriate Power of Attorney, then an application would need to be made to the Court of Protection for the appointment of a Deputy empowered to act on their behalf. Such applications can be extremely lengthy and costly.
"We always encourage individuals to put in place Powers of Attorney as a precaution to ensure that people of their choice are appropriately authorised to act on their behalf should the need arise.
Although GPs are already paid for conducting asthma reviews and ensuring patients with high cholesterol counts are prescribed statins, they are not rewarded for identifying any particular condition.
Jeremy Hunt, the health secretary, has condemned diagnosis rates of dementia, which were just 37% as recently as 2010, as shockingly low and "a national shame. There are thought to be up to 400,000 people in England with dementia who have not been diagnosed.

Zurich announces it will offer Excess Flood Insurance
Last May Zurich announced that it would fill the gap on flood insurance. Condominiums face a huge problem in that the only place to turn often is the NFIP ( the national flood insurer).
The problem is that they will only cover up to $250,000. More if they consider cover for each unit owner @ $250,000.
There are not enough insurers that cover excess of the NFIP.
Companies and programs for flood have popped up and gone away as fast as they have started. One major claim, or a restrictive reinsurance market, and the opportunity for coverage is gone.
The industry needs more insurers to step up and fill the coverage gap for flood.

Words by Adrian Higgins, The Washington Post
Whatever the symbolism, there is something magical about a wall of lush vegetation – whether unexpected on a canvas or cosseting in a garden.
The desire to clothe buildings, fences, walls or any vertical plane with plants is a long-held ambition of gardeners and goes back at least to the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.
In recent years, another type of vegetative art has emerged, called living walls or green walls, and which relies on pockets to hold the roots. Under the guiding hand of a bold designer, they can take a repertoire of fairly ordinary plants and turn them into a tapestry of stunning effect.
One of the champions of this horticultural art form is the French designer Patrick Blanc, whose commissions include the side of a five-story building in Paris transformed from bare stucco to a vertical jungle named L'Oasis d'Aboukir.
Many living walls are constructed either in balmy places such as Florida or indoors, allowing the use of tropical plants, including some of the leafier houseplants.
Building one outdoors in a temperate climate forces the use of hardy plants. In his Paris project, Blanc used not just hardy perennials but also a few shrubs. The palette includes bergenias, pinks, cranesbill, hypericum, liriope, hostas, fatsia, and even nandina and yucca.
Such vertical gardens require expertly engineered systems of support and ways of delivering water and nutrients. They also require large quantities of plants.
"I don't think it's a do-it-yourself sort of thing," said Ed Snodgrass, a grower of green-roof plants in Street, Maryland. "You have to be pretty slick to take on a do-it-yourself pocket wall, with all the systems it requires."
The curtain of vegetation veils its workings: Custom armature, a hive of planting cells, a computerised irrigation system and supplemental lighting. Many skip the soil – the plants grow in synthetic felt or the like and are watered and fed hydroponically.
If you want a sense of the challenges and rewards of the vertical garden, consider the Green Wall at Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania. It was the largest living wall in the United States when it was built in 2010 and is used to decorate a curving corridor of individual restrooms. The garden consists of two walls – they face each other – and each is 13 feet high and 360 feet long.
The wall is a beguiling composition of 33,000 plants in contrasting textures and shades of greens. By using mostly ferns, flowering is kept to a bare minimum. It's designed as a break from the floral extravaganza in the East Conservatory. "It's the sorbet in a great meal," said its gardener, Lauren Jenkins. "This space is a respite."
For the viewer that is, not Jenkins. With her team of four volunteers, she is continually grooming and trimming and making sure that the plants are happy.
Companies have emerged to cater to this market. Employers see value in living walls as ways of beautifying office lobbies and bestowing tranquility in an otherwise harried environment.
Michael Furbish, of Furbish in Baltimore, has installed approximately 40 living walls over the past eight years. "We have a lot of people who see our walls in commercial applications and say, 'What if I want one, two feet by two feet, or three by three, in my kitchen. Can I do that?' " But scaling down doesn't negate the need for custom installation, sophisticated irrigation and other systems, so "it becomes prohibitively expensive," he said.

Studying the pictures, I got more and more convinced they used two WW2 Enfield canvas rifle slings with brass fittings, like this: What gave it away, was first of all the pre-knowledge that they used a lot of British WW2 stuff, and secondly the brass fittings and the raised and curved edge along the sides of the sling, as seen in this behind the scenes photo: And the curved edges: ...Only thing I couldn´t work out, was how they linked the two slings together - until I found this: http://enfieldrifles.profusehost.net/ti20.htm ...Detailing how to attach an Enfield sling, like so: Now take a look at this picture, pay special attention to where the sling is looped around the front end of the barrel, and how it´s attached to itself: Here´s a close-up further down the sling, where you can clearly see the brass fitting of the Enfield sling, and how the C-ring on the end is clamped around the sling: And here´s how I think it was done: ...Now all I gotta do, is find myself a nice pair of green canvas Enfield slings, and try it out for myself!

A major study of the current autosomal genetics of Oceania largely supports the existing paradigm with some fairly subtle nuances in the post-Austronesian period that also demonstrates that there was linguistic diversity among the founding populations of the Solomon Islands.
A widely accepted two-wave scenario of human settlement of Oceania involves the first out-of-Africa migration ca 50,000 ya, and one of the most geographically-widespread dispersals of people, known as the Austronesian expansion, which reached the Bismarck Archipelago by about 3,450 ya. While earlier genetic studies provided evidence for extensive sex-biased admixture between the incoming and the indigenous populations, some archaeological, linguistic and genetic evidence indicates a more complicated picture of settlement. To study regional variation in Oceania in more detail, we have compiled a genome-wide dataset of 823 individuals from 72 populations (including 50 populations from Oceania) and over 620,000 autosomal SNPs.
We show that the initial dispersal of people from the Bismarck Archipelago into Remote Oceania occurred in a "leapfrog" fashion, completely by-passing the main chain of the Solomon Islands, and that the colonization of the Solomon Islands proceeded in a bi-directional manner. Our results also support a divergence between western and eastern Solomons, in agreement with the sharp linguistic divide known as the Tryon-Hackman line.
We also report substantial post-Austronesian gene flow across the Solomons. In particular, Santa Cruz (in Remote Oceania) exhibits extraordinarily high levels of Papuan ancestry that cannot be explained by a simple bottleneck/founder event scenario.From here (links added editorially).
