|no sense
No way he is fired before season end. with 5 million that could go either way...I bet they have an "understanding" in place where JH can walk after the season. 49ers don't owe him...he doesn't owe them.
Bet he is introduced to the team on Monday/Tuesday as the new coach.

|DeBord 2.0
This reminds me so much of DeBord. Most of the season you are pissed at him for being an R-Tard with play calling. Then the last few games/bowl game happens and all of a sudden you think...."we can make this work next year!". Thus the endless cycle starts.
This blog has covered this over and over.....but I agree that he needs to go. Maybe Mattison can talk someone into making the move from NFL to Ann Arbor. Could Mattison be our best offensive weapon? Mind Blown....

incorrect...the first play call was probably a Gardner roll out to the right...just like half of the close games we had this year. Instead we threw it. I would have been pissed if I saw DG get stopped again on the 1 with 5 people taclking him.
Long story short...Borges reads this blog...and knows too much. FIRE HIM!

|Sorry, I should have been a
Sorry, I should have been a little more specific. We played a straight up man to man coverage and a cover 3 zone. I would say that 90% of the time we played man. We were taught basic fundamentals of the position, but there was a HUGE learning curve when I went to AU. I wish I could go more into the various coverages we had at AU...but as a freshman I never really learned all of them. I ended up running track the following years there.
My point was that although he might have matured and is closer to his phyical peak than some other incoming DB's, mentally he can make a huge jump with how he plays the position.

|I played at SV in the late
I played at SV in the late 90s and I am very familar with coach Mayzes and the program. I am very excited to see a fellow Cougar on the field for Michigan in the next few years! I am sure his 4.6 40 was recorded at a camp....if it was a "Mayzes 40" its probably more around the 4.8 range. FWIW, I ran a "Mayzes 40" in 4.4 and was hand timed in the 100 that year at 10.7. Running in college and getting electrically timed really made me realize how off times can be in HS.
Also, back when I played there I didn't really feel like they got me ready to play ball in college. I went to Ashland University, a small D2 school as a DB. Coach Mayzes had 2 main coverages then...man...and zone. Most of the time he told me to cover the other teams best WR and try not to let him catch anything. Worked great in HS...but I was not prepared at all for the next level (6 coverages calls, different WR shading and releases, reading multiple receivers at once).
With the great coaching he will get at Michigan I think he will be just fine. I think physically he can see the field early and contribue early in his career. Good luck to him...I think he is a great person to represent Southview! Go Cougars...and Go Blue!

|I think I have seen more
I think I have seen more press coverage in this game than all of last season. It is a slippery slope when you ask inexperienced DB's to press a reciever. Can either work out really well or really bad. I think our DB's with their experience should be playing more press coverage.
|08/06/2011 - 3:17pm
|I played for SV back in 96-97
I played for SV back in 96-97 and there was nothing going on then (that I was aware of). Mayzes has put together a few great teams there since I graduated. Hopefully it gets cleaned up. Good luck to them this year!

|As a former D2 college
As a former D2 college sprinter and DB...there is something to say about having track speed. It doesn't always transfer on the field, but speed is speed. 100m or 40 yards I don't think you will find much of a difference. A kid that runs in the 10 second range with FAT timing will have a decent 40 time. Besides, unless you are in the 10.5 range or lower with FAT timing NOT hand timing...you are a 400m runner anyways.
It is nice to have some recruits that qualified for the meet. Best of luck to all of them!

Just how much faster do you want the camera to be? I dont think they sent this baby up with a Nikon CoolPix with Ashton Kutcher riding shot gun.

Actually, I also wish it 'were' what you interpret it to be. But apart from whether it's drawings, cracks or shadows, your artwork deserves a star, at the very least! Looks magnificent!!
On the other hand, you saw that 'my view' focused more on the lower section of the original image, which again illustrates just how differently people look at these 'rocks'. I guess the only thing that would really help would be some MAHLI close-ups with sufficient resolution ... which NASA/JPL, of course, don't provide for any of the 'interesting' rocks ...
And again: thanks for that nice illustration!!

Also, in your original one I noticed this:
You have TWO shinny objects.
I looked for a 2nd photo on your first picture, but the only one that comes close, the object is just below the bottom of the frame.
I'm impressed with these....(others not so much...but good job on these).

Now you have!
Both Mastcam camera heads have a mechanical focus and autofocus capability. The cameras can focus between 2.1 meters (the nearest view to the surface from the cameras' position on the Remote Sensing Mast) and infinity.
One Mastcam camera head has a 100 mm focal length, f/10 lens. This provides the capability to obtain images with a scale of 7.4 centimeters per pixel at 1 km distance, and about 150 microns per pixel at 2 meters distance. The camera's square field of view covers 5.1° over 1200 by 1200 pixels on the instrument's 1600 by 1200 CCD.
The other Mastcam camera head has a 34 mm focal length, f/8 lens. The camera's 15° square field of view covers 1200 by 1200 pixels on a 1600 by 1200 CCD detector. The camera can obtain 450 microns per pixel images at 2 meters distance and 22 centimeters per pixel at 1 kilometer distance.

Travelling. Once a great mainstay, and a measure of a person, seems to come and go with the ages. Every few months a map makes its cycle around my little sphere of social media. You all know the one, with the states where people have visited highlighted. It is funny for me to see some of the reactions, comments, excuses and proclamations that accompany these maps. Perhaps it is because, well, to be frank, my map was completed nearly a decade ago.
Ibn Battuta once said "Travelling. It makes you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller". I have done my best to become quite the storyteller. I flex my lexicon to paint the beauty of a sunrise over the Atlantic. The sweeping colors pouring into view over an expansive, white capped, sea. I pull on the heartstrings as I capture the stillness of a single tear fall from the cheek of a parent in a waiting room. I bring the undeniable smile when expressing the joy of being smothered in the kisses of my children. All of this in an effort to give you an opportunity to travel. To close your eyes, sit in the stillness, and picture the scene I have laid before you.
A new thought on travelling for me.
But, those silly maps, the ones that cause me to chuckle have sparked an idea. What if, I were to complete the map with my children before they become adults? Would they enjoy travelling? I am sure that they would. More so, they would enjoy the stories that I would tell about some of my favorite places, while we are there. They may be inspired when we stop in a field and lay there on the grass. To look up at the clouds in the sky in wonder. To explain to them that this is but a starting place, and it is about the journey.
So, the days, and years, ahead I will be overjoyed to expand my stories as we travel. However, I feel that the real excitement will be in watching the new generation of storytellers. Watching them take in all that they can from our travelling journeys. Listening as they become speechless, and begin painting pictures with their words.
Live big, love bigger, and be kind, always.

Accessing the General Education Curriculum
Students with disabilities must be provided access to the general education curriculum. This helps to ensure that students are learning the content and skills they need now and after graduation. One way that local education agencies can document access to the general education curriculum is through a standards aligned individualized education program (IEP). Students tested via the Pennsylvania System of School Assessment-Modified must have a standards aligned IEP with at least one measurable annual goal (in reading and/or mathematics depending on the student's need) that is aligned, in whole or in part, to a grade level standard, anchor, eligible content, big idea, concept or competency.

Irving Penn was one the finest platinum printers of recent times and created some of the most exquisite, valuable and sort after platinum prints. He was self taught and obsessive about this particular alternative photographic printing process, trying all manner of papers, combinations and mixes of platinum/palladium and even Iridium metals. He is well respected within photographic community first and foremost for being a great photographer, however he is also championed as leading the revival of the platinum printing process in the late 1960's/70's since becoming dormant for over 50 years.
From reading around the subject, the reason for Penn taking up the platinum printing process was in part due to the fact after taking so much time, care and attention in creating images in the studio and darkroom, once printed in the pages of Vogue and other magazines they would lose a lot of the beauty and subtlety of the original negatives/prints. He wanted to somehow take back his images and 'transform them from being a thing suitable for reproduction into something entirely different, something beautiful in itself' (Conversation with Penn and Greenough,
14 January 2003). Always testing and pushing his technique further and allowing chance and fortuitous discoveries to occur, in the late 1980's he used a modified banquet camera (12x20 inch) to photographic his own drawings which he would later paint over and sometimes mix in sand to add greater texture. The book 'Platinum Prints' published by Yale University Press in 2005 has an interesting and well written essay by Sarah Greenough that goes into great detail regarding Penn's printing process. Although it is largely second hand information I can well believe it to be accurate. I came across text actually written by Penn for an exhibition catalogue in 1980 the other day, shown below, although it tells us nothing new it was interesting to read him describe his technique is his own words.
I think there is probably a lot we still don't know about his printing method, some printers I have come across refrain from divulging their techniques, which I am fine with as some advances are hard won, indeed Penn once stated that he was 'jealous' of sharing his pleasure with anyone.(quoted from 'The stranger behind the camera: Photographs and Art work by Irving Penn,'Vogue November 2004) However there are other printers that I have come across that are very open with their advances, people that immediately spring to mind who have generously helped my development as a printer include Mike Ware and Ian Leake.
Renowned platinum printer Stan Klimek, who has printed some of the finest contemporary platinum prints I have ever seen, states in Dick Arentz book on platinum printing that creating a perfect platinum print is like 'aiming at a moving target' which is definitely the case these days. With materials such as paper being discontinued all the time or modified to suit other printmaking techniques (buffering of paper with calcium carbonate comes to mind) new papers/transparency films have to be found and tested and new methods of paper/negative preparation and processing techniques have to be devised and adapted. This is why ultimately I believe as more products people once relied on to create platinum prints are discontinued or changed hybrid techniques will continue to expand and why websites such as hybridphoto.com (part of APUG) are this are essential to any future development.
Anyway I digress! Coming back to Penn, If one looks at the existing information on Penn's technique what can modern day platinum printers learn from it ?Well for a start we know he muliti layered platinum/palladium onto paper such as BFK Rives, Bienfang, Arches and Strathmore. Penn obviously did this for a reason and could see significant benefits from this practice, further to this he sometimes made the first coating with platinum and the second with palladium or Iridium, the later I have never come across, has anyone else? What hands on experience have others had with muliti layering contemporary papers such as Platine, Lana Aquarelle, Bergger COT-320,BFK Rives and alternating with coats of platinum and palladium.
Penn states that he used '2 or more negatives of varying contrast to make a single print.' He was able to register them perfectly by mounting his printing paper onto aluminium using a bond called Surlyn created by Dupont. The reason being to endure the 'repeating wettings and dryings with little change to the dimension' of the paper which was required for printing and exposing multiple negatives (A modified version of this was devised by Richard Sullivan using a different bond made by Seal, the advantage being that at the final stage the bond can be heated and the print removed from the aluminium without damaging the print.)Using a digital negative system approach in theory we should be able to replicate this without the use of multiple negatives and successive exposures. As is well known for any given image, modern day photographers can take a series of two digital exposures and combine to create one image, one exposed for the shadows and one for the highlights, then combine them via Photoshop to create an image of 'High Dynamic Range' (HDR), this HDR image could then be output via inkjet printer/imagesetter. (A similar approach could be used when scanning film of either two negatives or even one). I am not a fan of HDR images per say, as I find them overly surreal, however if used in moderation it should work the same as using multiple negatives, shouldn't it?. This is my theory, of course the very act of making successive exposures to multiple negatives of varying contrast could play a significant part, much like the layering of a pigment or gum print, has anyone researched this or established the difference ? I aim to test this theory over the next few weeks by using multiple negatives/exposures versus just a single HDR digital negative with a single exposure to see if there is much of a difference. At the moment for some images I initially create 4 separate negatives each with a slightly different correction curve that I have developed and modified over the years, which i then print all together on one sheet, I then examine the final dried down print and on occasion I combine certain image characteristics that I like of each of the 4 negatives to create one final negative. Probably overly elaborate but it's the way I like to work.
Another issue is the exposure system used, Penn states that they ranged 'from 2 mins to 2 hours with a single strong Xenon light' I know Sandy King has done significant research into the area of uv exposure systems and it is one that I have overlooked but need to follow up (further information can be found here, http://unblinkingeye.com/Articles/Light/light.html )
A final question….If Penn were alive today and creating platinum prints with the proficiency of his early youth, would he still be creating multiple negatives with successive exposures in the darkroom or would he embracing hybrid techniques such as digital negative creation to achieve the same results?
To conclude, this post has been rather longer than I intended it to be, however I hope others find it thought provoking.

Analytic Complex Functions
Recall from the Differentiable Complex Functions page that if $A \subseteq \mathbb{C}$ is open, $z_0 \in A$, and $f : A \to \mathbb{C}$, then $f$ is said to be complex differentiable at $z_0$ if the following limit exists:(1)
If this limit does exist, then the limit $f'(z_0)$ is called the derivative of $f$ at $z_0$.
We will now touch upon a new concept
|Definition: Let $A \subseteq \mathbb{C}$ be open, $z_0 \in A$, and $f : A \to \mathbb{C}$. Then $f$ is said to be Analytic at $z_0$ if there exists an $r > 0$ such that $f$ is complex differentiable on the open disk $D(z_0, r)$. $f$ is said to be Analytic on $A$ if $f$ is analytic at each $z_0 \in A$.
The term "holomorphic" can be used interchangeably with "analytic" in this context.
For a simple example, recall that if $f(z) = z$ then $f'(z_0) = 1$ for all $z_0 \in \mathbb{C}$. Since the complex derivative of $f$ exists at every point $z_0 \in \mathbb{C}$ it is clear that $f$ is analytic on $\mathbb{C}$ and of course, is analytic on every open subset of $\mathbb{C}$.
We will now state a very important theorem which says that if $f$ is complex differentiable at a point $z_0$, i.e., if $f'(z_0)$ exists, then $f$ is necessarily continuous at $z_0$. This will be important in proving some results regarding analytic functions shortly.
|Theorem 1: Let $A \subseteq \mathbb{C}$ be open, $z_0 \in A$, and $f : A \to \mathbb{C}$. If $f$ is complex differentiable at $z_0$ then $f$ is continuous at $z_0$.
- Proof: Since $f$ is complex differentiable at $z_0$, $f'(z_0)$ exists and so:
- Therefore $\displaystyle{\lim_{z \to z_0} f(z) = f(z_0)}$ and so $f$ is continuous at $z_0$. $\blacksquare$

:: home > departments > engineering > capital improvements
Capital improvements are projects that increase the capital value of the infrastructure of the City. At the City of Victorville, staff designs projects dealing with roadways, storm drainage systems, sewer systems, and water supply systems. For larger and/or more complex projects that require specialized expertise, the City will use outside consultants to prepare the design.
The City Council approves a new capital improvement program (CIP) each year. The CIP contains more projects than can be completed by staff for any given year and are therefore carried into the next year. The projects in the 2015-2016 CIP Budget that are currently active are:

Answers to Questions about the CIP
Some of the roads I drive on need work. When is the City going to repair these roads?The roadways included in the CIP are based on a combination of degree of degradation and traffic volume. Roadways receive a pavement condition index (PCI) rating ranging from 0 to 100, where 0 is a road that has totally failed and 100 is a brand new roadway in ideal condition. While we would like to be able to fix all the roadways with a rating lower than 70, the budget only allows us to fix the highest priority projects in any given fiscal year based on a mathematical formula using the PCI rating and volume of traffic. If your problem is minor, such as a pothole for example, you may contact our Maintenance Division at (760) 243-6365.
When is the CIP created and who makes the decision?The CIP is approved on an annual basis by the City Council. The proposed CIP is created by theCity Engineer around March to May for presentation to the City Council for the following fiscal year (July 1 to June 30).
How soon after you begin advertising a project does construction actually begin?Typically, construction begins about two months after advertising begins.
I'm having an issue with a contractor performing work near my home/business but cannot find the project listed here. Who do I call?Not all construction projects within City right-of-way are funded by the City. Utility companies and private development frequently perform work within our right-of-way with an encroachment permit from the Engineering Division. Call (760) 955-5158 to report an issue and we will look into it.
How do I get a copy of the CIP?You can download a copy of the CIP by clicking in the hyperlink in the second paragraph of this page.

The USB 3.0 is fast, but the new version is faster than that. The upgrade came in the form of 3.1 version. Move on to 3.1 if you need to experience the new transfer speed. The upgrade is not going to work with the old USB 2.0 and 3.0 kit's. You can achieve the high speed only if you are upgraded to USB 3.1 kit.

How To Rewrite URL's || The Basic Concept
Having simple and clean URL's will add an advantage to your website. It helps search engines to understand the content of your website easily. Creating meaning full URL's allow user's to search the content on your website easily. URL rewriting plays a major role in producing dynamic sitemap (where sitemap.xml will be mapped to sitemap.php which produces sitemap dynamically). Now, it is possible to submit sitemap.xml to google rather submitting sitemap.php which is not possible. URL rewriting method is different for different type's of hosting. [….]

As one of the most prominent sex educators on the scene today, Tristan Taormino wears many hats: Any bookstore with an even halfway decent sexuality section is sure to include several of the books that she's written or edited, such as The Ultimate Guide to Anal Sex for Women or 50 Shades of Kink: An Introduction to BDSM. She's been even more prolific as the producer and director of educational adult videos like The Expert Guide to Pegging.
Taormino's work has addressed people of all genders and orientations, from vanilla to kinky. But she's been especially important in expanding the possibilities for non-monogamous relationships. Before polyamory was something commonly discussed on mainstream sites like Slate or Newsweek, her 2008 book Opening Up: A Guide to Creating and Sustaining Open Relationships served as a guide for people looking for alternatives to monogamy. Seven years later, it's still one of the most-cited books by veterans and newcomers to polyamory.
This Saturday (November 15), Tristan Taormino will come to Stockroom Hall for an intensive four-hour workshop on how to create and sustain open relationships. We had a conversation with her about the workshop, the ethics of poly relationships, and how polyamory has changed since she wrote Opening Up.


text: A bunch of World of Warcraft players have been upset that the WRT54GS v1.1 doesn't work for them. The problem has been narrowed down to just this minor revision of the router and seems independent of wired/wireless, firmware version, etc. I had this problem myself and ran a packet sniffer, found evidence that the WRT54GS v1.1 is corrupting the data on incoming TCP packets some tiny fraction of the time. I'm not positive this is truly the problem, but it was enough for me to replace it with a WRT54G v2.2 which seems to be working better. No corruption. If this is correct, then I'd think this problem would show up as bad lag or stalled connections on any long lived TCP stream. Is this a known problem? Details here, see post 199 http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.aspx?FN=wow-tech-support&T=117416&P=10 PS: if you're a linksys tech, I'd be happy to share the packet capture with you to help debug the problem.

Solange Knowles attacks Jay-Z
A video has surfaced of Solange Knowles attacking Jay-Z in the Standard Hotel's elevator. The altercation took place on May 5 in New York City after the Met Gala.
The video shows Solange trying to punch and kick Jay-Z in the elevator, while Beyoncé stands off to the side. The security guard attempts to hold Solange back and buys some time to gain control of the situation by pushing the emergency stop button. Beyoncé doesn't get involved until about thirty seconds into the video when she seems to say something to her sister and then places herself between Jay-Z and Solange.
It's difficult to tell what caused the conflict because the surveillance video has no sound. However, HollywoodLife.com has an exclusive source that claims Solange was sticking up for Beyoncé. Read what else the insider had to say here, and watch the elevator footage that TMZ released below.

Seven people, five of them children, were taken to area hospitals this afternoon after high levels of carbon monoxide were detected in a Far South Side residence, fire officials said.
Two adults and one child were taken to hospitals in serious-to-critical condition, said Chicago Fire Department spokesman Quention Curtis. Four other children were taken to hospitals in fair-to-serious condition, he said.
"The flue was left off the furnace, and [the furnace] had been running all night," Curtis said. The flue is a device that is used to expel furnace-generating carbon monoxide from the residence.

BERLIN, Sept 4 (Reuters) - German Chancellor Angela Merkel announced plans on Monday to double to 1 billion euros ($1.19 billion) a fund aimed at cleaning up urban transport infrastructure in a bid to avert bans of diesel vehicles in some cities.
Ahead of an election later this month, Merkel has come under fire for her close ties to Germany's powerful auto industry and for failing to crack down on vehicle pollution after Volkswagen admitted to cheating U.S. emissions tests.
The meeting on Monday was a follow-up to a summit held last month at which politicians and car bosses agreed to overhaul engine software on 5.3 million diesel cars to cut emissions, and set up a fund of 500 million euros to help cities limit pollution.
Merkel told a news conference that the fund would now be doubled to 1 billion euros. German Foreign Minister Sigmar Gabriel said the auto industry should contribute more to the fund than the 250 million euros it pledged last month. (Reporting by Emma Thomasson; Editing by Caroline Copley)

It's official. Right before adjourning a few weeks ago, the Alaska Legislature passed SB175, giving the state its very own firearm: the pre-1964 Winchester Model 70 .30-06 caliber rifle.
Now, I'm not a gun owner. I don't hunt — I'm more of a gatherer — and I prefer to defend myself as nature intended: with a Taser. So I can't rightly weigh in on choice of official make and model, although to me, nothing quite says "Alaska" like shooting a halibut in the face with a .44.
Some wonder why we need an official state firearm in the first place and question spending public time, effort and money enacting a bill to name one. To this I say: Did we really want to be shown up by all the other states with official state firearms, by which I mean Arizona, Indiana, Utah and West Virginia? Come on. We're twice as gun-crazy as they are — or anyone in the Lower 48, for that matter, except maybe Texas, and they don't even have an official state firearm.
Well, we do.
You hear that Texas? Consider yourselves officially "messed with."
Sadly, however, the 2014 legislative session closed with the job only half complete. What good is an official state firearm without official state ammunition? The way they left it, Alaska's shooting blanks up here. Is that really the message we're looking to convey? I, for one, hope our lawmakers begin next year by ignoring all other business until they can resolve the issue of state ammo. And also, can that ammo be slung across an official state bandolier?
Of course, some Alaskans feel uncomfortable with the very notion of symbolizing the state with a weapon, and part of me — the part that grills tofu and wears sandals — admittedly agrees.
Those preferring a less deadly icon, take heart! Peaceful Alaska state symbols abound.
Every Alaskan knows our state tree (Sitka spruce), state sport (dog mushing) and state flower, the Forget-me-something-or-other (wait a minute, it'll come to me…). And who doesn't walk around all day singing our state song, "Alaska's Flag"? Well, either that or the theme from Disney's "Frozen." Same difference.
Alaska boasts not one but two state animals: the moose (land) and the bowhead whale (marine)—in your face, grizzlies and humpbacks!
And of course, there's our proud Alaska state fish, the king salmon. But if we really wanted to be honest with ourselves, we'd change that to a half-eaten herring plug, which, in the process of getting nibbled but not actually hooking anything, has wound back around itself causing a 30-minute line tangle.
But the symbols don't end there.
Did you know Alaska's official state insect is the Four-Spotted Skimmer Dragonfly? What about our official state soil, Tanana? Part of me — the part that listens to NPR and receives the LL Bean catalogue — thinks that's just the kind of face we should be putting forward. Where are all the "I Dig Tanana" and "I Soiled Myself in Alaska" T-shirts?
And how's this for official state trivia: while Alaska doesn't have an official coat-of-arms — we don't even have an official performance-fleece-vest-of-arms — we do have an official state tartan. Finally, the excuse you've been waiting for to wear your kilt in public.
Four years ago, the Legislature anointed an official Alaska state dog breed, the malamute; five years ago, it said "thanks, but no thanks" to federal rodents, officially replacing Groundhog Day with Marmot Day.
Why not ride that official state momentum?
Many others in the U.S. have official foods and beverages; ours remain glaringly open. My suggestions? Alaska state food: caribalmigan (salmon stuffed inside a ptarmigan stuffed inside a caribou, smothered in fireweed gravy). Alaska state beverage: oil (we're all drinking it, every last one of us, every last drop).
Friendly amendment to that proposal: Alaska's state utensil shall be bear claw salad tongs, and its official state condiment, Ranch dressing. According to a recent NPR story, Ranch was officially named the nation's number one salad dressing. We better snap it up before another state does.
Some in the Lower 48 also have official state musical instruments. I propose Alaska's be a fiddle, completely un-played and hanging on the wall between a whale baleen and a Rie Munoz/Barbara Lavalle print.
Other states also have state amphibians, state reptiles, state dances and even state grasses. Why doesn't Alaska have a state grass? And what would our state grass be? Come to think of it, let's table this one pending the outcome of Proposition 2 this November.
Further symbols I think the Legislature should consider: state tape: duct; state tarp: blue; state fossil: Don Young.
Lastly, Mississippi has a state toy, the teddy bear, as does Pennsylvania, the Slinky. I propose Alaska's state toy be whatever's on super-special at Fred Meyer (for instance, this week it'd be the Air Hogs Foam Stunt-Glider — I bought four).
On second thought, the official Alaska state toy proposal would probably stand a better chance of passing if we changed that to the pre-1964 Winchester Model 70 .30-06 caliber rifle.
But those I think you need to buy at Wal-Mart.
Note: special thanks to "Slack Tide" reader Mike Fox for emailing me the idea starter.

Series: Stand Alone
Author: Gayle Forman
Edition: Paperback (International Edition)
Publication: January 27, 2015 by Viking Juvenile
Source: Gifted
Pages: 270
Genre: Contemporary, Suicide, Romance, Mental Health
Trailer: to follow
Cody and Meg were inseparable.
Two peas in a pod.
Until . . . they weren't anymore.
When her best friend Meg drinks a bottle of industrial-strength cleaner alone in a motel room, Cody is understandably shocked and devastated. She and Meg shared everything—so how was there no warning? But when Cody travels to Meg's college town to pack up the belongings left behind, she discovers that there's a lot that Meg never told her. About her old roommates, the sort of people Cody never would have met in her dead-end small town in Washington. About Ben McAllister, the boy with a guitar and a sneer, who broke Meg's heart. And about an encrypted computer file that Cody can't open—until she does, and suddenly everything Cody thought she knew about her best friend's death gets thrown into question.
I Was Here is Gayle Forman at her finest, a taut, emotional, and ultimately redemptive story about redefining the meaning of family and finding a way to move forward even in the face of unspeakable loss.
Manila stay that she travels a lot and that remarkably showed in her novels. I adored Just One Day and Just One Year so knowing she has a new novel coming up made me cheer. Her previous books toured me around the world and I Was Here toured me as well, though just in the US, it was still lovely for my heart full of wanderlust nonetheless.
I Was Here didn't appeal to me as much as I wanted to. It didn't leave a mark, it didn't tickle my tearducts, it didn't make me feel anything. It was an okay story, I didn't hate it but I didn't love it either. It was probably because I didn't fully connect to anything in it: the plot, characters (though am swooning over Ben) or even the progress of the story. It would have worked for me if there were glimpses of Meg's side but her death appeared to be the bridge to the romance which didn't make sense to the entirety of the story. Don't get me wrong, I adored that part of I Was Here, but I couldn't see the connection of it to how or why Meg died. I mean, I was after the grief or pain or loss but I guess, I Was Here touched the unfamiliar side of losing someone which was its downfall in my opinion.
Cody's path in the story was so pretentious to me. It was absurd to be confronting such dangerous people and I honestly couldn't wrap my mind around it. Cody was different in both good and bad ways but the bad weighs heavier than the good. I know she loved Meg so bad but her guilt pushed her to find answers no one in the right set of mind would go for. I couldn't connect to her, to her grief or even to her loss. Or maybe, I couldn't connect to anything about this book at all.
I Was Here was such a let-down book for me. I've read a few emotionally invested story this year but this one was just underwhelming. What's worse is this is the first Forman book I didn't like.
Thank you, Dianne of Oops, I Read a Book Again! for my paperback copy!
"I was reminded just why God wants us to forgive. Not simply because it's the key to a better world, but because of what it does for ourselves. Forgiveness is God's gift to us. Christ forgave us. He forgave our sins. That was his gift. But by allowing us to forgive each other, he opened us up to that divine love. The article had it right. Forgiveness: It's a miracle drug. It's God's miracle drug."
"Sometimes you don't even need to be in the same room for the damage to be done."
"But by the way he's looking at everything in the room but me, I think he knows that he didn't really explain why. And by the way I'm looking at everything in the room but him, I know that I don't really need him to."

For the classic cream cheese dough: Combine the butter and cream cheese in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until smooth and creamy. Switch to low speed and gradually add in the flour. Stop the mixer and scrape the bowl and beater to make sure it is well mixed. The dough will be sticky. Divide the dough into three portions, wrap each in plastic wrap and flatten to a disk. Refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours or overnight.
For the filling: Mix together the sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Chop the almonds to small bits and toss with the raisins and sugar-cinnamon mixture.
To assemble the rugelach: Dust the work surface with the flour and roll each dough portion to a 10-inch circle. Lightly brush each circle with the melted butter. Spread a third of the preserves or jam on each circle, leaving a clearance of 1/4-inch on the perimeter so the filling won't ooze out while baking. Sprinkle a third of the almond-raisin-sugar mixture on top of the preserves and press in slightly to help adhere.
Using a pizza wheel, divide each circle into four quarters. Divide each quarter into three thin triangles, for a total of 12 wedges. Roll each triangle from the curved side to the point and place on a parchment-lined or nonstick baking sheet. Refrigerate the sheets for 30 minutes while preheating the oven to 350 degrees F. Note: The rugelach can be frozen on the trays and then stored in a zip-top bag in the freezer for baking fresh later.
Carefully brush each rugelach with the egg wash, trying to avoid drips. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until deep golden. Cool on a rack and store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Professor Aaron Belkin will join UC Hastings as a visiting professor in the fall of 2015.
Belkin is Professor of Political Science at San Francisco State University and the founding director of the Palm Center, a leading gay rights non-profit originally affiliated with UC Santa Barbara.
Belkin is the author of five books and numerous articles on military diversity. He was instrumental in the public education campaign leading to the 2010 legislative repeal of the "don't ask, don't tell" policy which punished openly lesbian, gay and bisexual members of the armed forces. Now, he and the Palm Center have turned their focus to the military's ban on transgender personnel.
While at UC Hastings for a one-year visiting professorship, Belkin will teach social science research and LGBTQ rights litigation in the spring semester while continuing his research. As one of the few non-JD faculty at UC Hastings, Professor Belkin will bring an interdisciplinary perspective to examining cases dealing with marriage equality, family law, and sexuality in the military.
"There's a powerful relationship between litigation strategies and lobbying, public education and grassroots organizing," he said. "'Don't ask, don't tell' is seen by some advocates as a textbook example of how to pursue a range of strategies which enhance the chances of the court case's success." He recalled how the federal district court judge who overturned "don't ask, don't tell" cited the exact arguments that the community had been advancing in the media as part of its public education campaign. "Social science empowered the litigation, and vice versa, and we will explore that in the course," he said.
Belkin has previously collaborated on projects and papers with Provost & Academic Dean Elizabeth L. Hillman, who considers Belkin's appointment a way to diversify academic offerings at UC Hastings. "Aaron has been singularly successful in advocating for LGBT rights," Hillman said. "The social science focus of his course will show students who are committed to making change that effective legal strategies often involve disciplines outside legal doctrine and beyond the courtroom," she said. His appointment is independently funded.
For his part, Belkin is delighted to be joining the UC Hastings faculty and working again with Hillman. "I'm also looking forward to meeting and working with a wide range of other faculty members whose work involves social justice and the intersection of law and social science," he said.

Colorful SweetskinZ Bike Tires.
No, this post isn't about a guy doing bike stunt - instead, look at the bike itself. See anything odd? Like the tires?
That's the SweetskinZ tires, invented by Yann Mellet, have full-color graphics and light-reflective patterns. Cool!
Link [Flash] - Thanks Adam Leiter!
Newest 1 Comment
I have it from one source -- an ex-bike shop mechanic -- that these tyres, while attractive, are of very low quality. I want to believe otherwise, and would love some objective review. Such a cool concept...

This time it was the "regular" title on the line with Kazakh Beibut Shumenov (17-2, 11) facing Junior Anthony Wright (15-2-1, 12), in a bout that was put together on less than a week's notice and seemed to be one of the many jokes that the WBA have given us in recent weeks. It was made with a late notice that the bout missed out on TV coverage and was essentially a joke title bout, especially given the other two title bouts.
Despite being a "joke title fight", the bout it's self looked like a good one on paper, between two heavy handed, talented but flawed fighters, both looking to score a noteworthy win. Thankfully the bout proved to be just as good in the ring as it looked on paper.
The fight started well for Shumenov who used his unorthodox boxing to make Wright look out classed, until round 5 when the American fighter dropped Shumenov with a very solid shot. Sadly for Wright however that was a rare moment of success and in round 8 Shumenov twice dropped Wright, who was beginning to have the bout go all his way.
Wright seemed to bounce back from the knockdowns well, but a third knockdown, in round 10, saw his corner immediately throw in the towel to give Shumenov the win.
Sadly for the Kazakh it would seem likely that he will now have to face either Dorticos or Lebedev, who are both likely to really hurt Shumenov if the bouts are made later this year.

Phil Garner was all mad at his team for failing to put the ball in play and scoring runs. In today's Trib, Dave Van Dyck analyzes Game 4 inning by inning.
He wrote about Garner choosing–again–to bunt in the 1st inning. "Phil Garner was playing for one run early, which is a good idea the way his team has been hitting. So Willy Taveras sacrifices Craig Biggio to second. But Lance Berkman strikes out and Morgan Ensberg bounces out." That's twice in 2 nights that didn't work. Van Dyck says it's the right move. No way.
It's the exact opposite of what he should be doing. Guys who are in a funk don't need to be hitting with men in scoring position and 2 outs, down 3 games to zip in the World Series. It's added pressure. You need a big inning. Big innings release pressure and restore confidence. Why would you be playing for one run in the 1st inning? What happens in game 3 if Garner does not give away an out? Do they score 2, 3 or 4? Does the game go to 14? What about last night? Suppose they get a hit or two and score one or two that way–how are they feeling about themselves then? Much was made of the Sox sweeping with a run differential of only 6 in the 4 games. Well Garner is a huge part of that.

Ever Wonder What it Would Be Like to Spend the Day with Me?
The winner of our Carefree "7 Days of Fierce" Instagram contest could tell you!
For the past couple of years, Jeff and I have been talking about buying a house and making a plan to save for the down payment. Part of my daydreaming about home ownership involves making lists of all the things I'd like in a house: a 1920s Spanish-style house, original tile work, three bedrooms or two bedrooms and a den, a dishwasher, and central air conditioning (my kingdom for central A/C!)
But recently, the item that has moved to the top of my wishlist is this: multiple bathrooms.
See, I've shared one tiny little bathroom with a significant other and a child for many years. And I am 100% over it. Not only is space limited for my personal care and beauty items, but three people in one bathroom equals more mess and less time in the bathroom for me.
I wrote previously about my quest to reclaim my bathroom. I fancied it up a bit, put all my favorite products on the top shelf in the shower, and started keeping cleaning products right under the bathroom sink so I can wipe everything down after my 9-year-old comes in from playing outside and washes all the dirt off his hands, leaving mud in the sink (it happens).
This all worked pretty well, except I still find myself being interrupted, either when I'm in the middle of a nice hot shower, or if I'm uh, taking care of business. Apparently, all the needs of nine-year-olds are immediate and require a conversation through the bathroom door, no matter how many times you tell them that sharing the funny cat video they just watched is NOT an emergency.
Aside from some very basic privacy needs, the other problem I haven't been able to solve is getting myself ready in the morning. I would need to get up at 5:00 am every day to have enough uninterrupted time in the bathroom to: take a shower, moisturize my skin, dry and style my hair, and "put on my face" as someone's wacky old aunt might say.
I've been paying close attention, and half the time, I'm applying my makeup while I stand in front of the full-length mirror in my bedroom. Or adding mascara at the dining room table with a tiny handheld mirror. A couple of times I've even brought my mascara to work and applied it at my desk (professional!)
It helps that I've put my everyday makeup in a little travel bag that I can take from room to room. But man, I am starting to resent the traveling makeup show.
The other day, when my routine was interrupted for the thrid time that morning, I realized that the only time I've ever had full, uninterrupted access to my own bathroom was in 1999. That's right, FIFTEEN YEARS AGO. I was living in a huge townhouse with two roommates, and I was lucky enough to have my very own bathroom. All living situations before and since have involved sharing a bathroom with roommates or family members.
I am so ready to have my own bathroom again. Unfortunately, we are stuck with just one shared bathroom for the time being. But when it comes time to look for a house to buy, you can be sure I'll be counting the bathrooms first thing.
In partnership with Charmin Ultra Soft. We all go. Why not enjoy the go?

What is Perennialism?
2 Responses to What is Perennialism?
I like the fact that you lump in humanism with the religions of the world in your demonstration. When doing so, I wonder if that moves it from a demonstration of perennialism to "neo-perennialism." Excellent demo, btw. Also, are you familiar with the web-site Realize. If not, just run a search on "neo-perennialism on google and it should be one of the first sites that pull up. I think you'll appreciate what James has there.

Review - The Social Network
The Social Network
The Social Network
is a classical tale of power and revenge. It begins in 2003 at Harvard, where undergraduate Mark Zuckerberg invents the vast social networking website Facebook. Director David Fincher (Fight Club, Se7en) intersperses Mark's upward trajectory with scenes from two lawsuits against him, one from his friend and co-founder Eduardo Saverin and one from classmates Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss.
Aaron Sorkin, also a playwright, adapted this outstanding script from Ben Mezrich's mostly true book
The Accidental Billionares
. Language is as central to this film as it is to any play. Conversations are the equivalent of car chases. In spite of its cleverness, the dialogue remains remarkably natural.
The fast talk is aided by snappy editing and pumping music, which sometimes turns as ominous as the darkly lit Harvard campus. Even glamorized scenes of elite parties are shot in somber tones. Further visual ingenuity is evinced in one scene in which the camera makes the world of a rowing race look like a perfect toyland. This athletic struggle mimics the characters' overarching business battles.
Impeccably cast,
The Social Network
is also a fascinating character study. Played by Jesse Eisenberg, Mark's intelligence and drive dominate the story. So brilliant he occasionally comes across as an evil genius, Mark is lonely, self-centered, and contemptuous. (His outfits consist of hoodies and sandals.) This protagonist's tragic flaws allow him everything but friendship.
The film is tilted towards Mark's former friend Eduardo (Andrew Garfield). While his decency and victimization are overemphasized, the character is quite believable and certainly sympathetic.
Also interesting are the amusing Winklevoss twins, played by Armie Hammer (thanks to incredible special effects). Tall and gorgeous, these Olympic class rowers resemble Olympians. They may be entitled, but their plight is understandable.
Even Sean Parker (Justin Timberlake), the creator of Napster and the man who seduces Mark into a larger life, comes across as more pathetic than villainous. Sean has surface charm and appreciates Facebook's potential, but he is at best unreliable and sophomoric.
Smaller parts are likewise well acted, including Mark's level headed and thus brief girlfriend (Rooney Mara) and the twins' furious friend Divya Narendra (Max Minghella). The only misstep is Rashida Jones as a (gorgeous) lawyer who is bizarrely compassionate to Mark, in an apparent attempt to make him more likable.
Certain aspects of the story are sexed up and simplified. Only the exclusive side of Harvard is explored. Most disturbing is that the characters on which The Social Network is based are still alive. Though mixing fact and fiction can be dubious, the creators of the film performed extensive research and invited everyone to give their input. Understandably, Mark Zuckerberg declined to participate.
Fast paced, hilarious, and parabolic,
The Social Network
will ensnare many into its world of competition and self-destruction. It is an excellent portrayal of Internet and youth culture in all its innovation, imagination, selfishness, and insolence. Amongst questions of class and control, we watch Mark and others chase after a sense of happiness that is ultimately hollow.

White Bread Recipe
12-inch Dutch oven
16 briquettes on the lid
8 briquettes on the bottom
Cast iron bread pan
Baking time: 25-30 minutes
Place frozen bread dough inside greased, cast iron bread pan. Cover with plastic top also greased with Pam to prevent the dough from sticking. Place bread in a warm place to thaw and rise. This normally takes 6-8 hours. Bread is ready to bake when dough has doubled in size.
Place bread pan inside a 12-inch Dutch oven with 8 hot briquettes underneath and 16 on top. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown. Baste top with butter or margarine. Serve warm; slice bread by placing loaf on its side.
Note: The Dutch oven bakes bread that is moist--never dry. I believe that it bakes some of the most delicious fresh bread possible. Such a feat while camping is a real treat.

Watch how to make this recipe.
Bring a large pot of water to boil over medium heat. When boiling, salt the water and add the pasta. Cook until just shy of al dente.
Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, 2 turns of the pan, in large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic and vegetables as you chop them, the zucchini, eggplant and red pepper. Season vegetables with salt and cover, cook until tender, about 10 to 12 minutes.
Just before draining the pasta, add about 1 cup starchy cooking liquid to the vegetables. Drain the pasta and add to the vegetables, tossing to combine. Stir in the basil and the cheese and a little black pepper, to taste. Transfer the pasta to a serving bowl and top with the shredded lettuce. Serve with an extra sprinkle of cheese and drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil.

AWT Announces the Addition of Haydn Jones as Director of International Operations
Experienced Marine Industry Executive to Lead Worldwide Management of Sales, Marketing, Strategic Business Development and Channel Partnerships
Feb 05, 2013, 03:00 EST
SUNNYVALE, Calif., Feb. 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Applied Weather Technology, Inc. (AWT), is pleased to announce the appointment of Haydn Jones as the company's Director of International Operations. In this role Jones will be responsible for sales, marketing and business development of the company's range of maritime ship routing services and onboard system, in addition to overseeing the international support organization. Jones will be a member of the parent company board of directors.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20081016/AQTH030ALOGO)
Jones has extensive experience in the marine industry. After graduating from the Britannia Royal Naval College in Dartmouth UK, he served at sea as a deck officer on a range of warships as well as teaching navigation and bridge watch keeping duties to officer cadets. His subsequent career in the industry has mainly been in the commercial shipping sector but also with involvement in naval systems and offshore oil and gas sectors. Jones has held sales management, marketing management and general management positions in well-known marine organizations including Nera Ltd., the United Kingdom Hydrographic Office and AWT business partner ChartCo Ltd. where he was head of sales and marketing, then managing director. Most recently he has been marketing director and business development manager of Fugro Satellite Positioning based in Oslo.
Commenting on the appointment, AWT Chairman Jung Soo Kang said, "With the increasing focus of ship operators on energy-efficient vessel operations, there is a need to look at how AWT's ship routing services, fleet management system and BVS onboard product are best utilized on ships and by shore-based operations teams.

company from Portugal - Boca Do Lobo. Check out the fabulously
colorful small coffee tables. The patterns are beautiful.
I'll never turned down furniture with lacquered
surfaces. These lovely end tables are no exception.
Paired with a traditional chair with a modern twist.
Although the chair is not part of their line, I love it!
table top paired with this black lacquered
base. Very posh with a sophisticated feel.
floor lamp that can also be used as a table lamp.
Love the modern end table with chrome,
real wood and lacquered finishes.
for the drawers. The handles really make the piece
as a very striking feature.
I wouldn't mind purchasing one of these
metal coat racks for myself. Sleek and cool.
I hope you enjoyed this little tour of furniture
from the collection of Boca Do Lobo.
