He is by far our best offensive player off the bench. Why the hell aren't we running the offense through him? This makes even less sense when the offence is struggling and he's getting like 2-4 shots a game at most.
He is by far our best offensive player off the bench. Why the hell aren't we running the offense through him? This makes even less sense when the offence is struggling and he's getting like 2-4 shots a game at most.
Haven't you heard? Alan Anderson is the second coming of Michael Jordan. He's already not getting enough shots as is. Nobody else should ever shoot it when Alan's on the court.
he's inefficient, and is going to hurt the team if his shot isn't falling that day.
plus we might be stuck with big pasta until february 2014, so he needs to figure out how to be an effective 3rd/4th option.
Gay isn't exactly helping the team either by taking 20 shots a game when regardless if he's extremely cold. I think Bargs should get the same treatment. He's better than pretty much everyone else on the bench when it comes to offense, he should getting minimum 10 shots a game.
Bargs & JL3 should not come in unless we have a lead. They always lose it and the starters come back. But in a situation when you are in a close game or behind....leave them off. Until Andrea PUNANEE learn to run the pick & roll, rebound or even use all 6 fouls....let him ride pine.
I dont think its a terrible idea.
But only because it means Anderson takes less shots (lower FG%)
The Baltic Beast is unstoppable!
It wasn't long ago when the starting Barniani was our first option (or shared it with DD). Obviously the dude can score so it would only make sense to give him the green light while playing with the scrubs. Let him work his way out of this funk, let him re-build his confidence and, whithout a doubt, he can be a nice peice coming off the bench. So many people here let their hate for the guy muddle up the bigger picture. Good thing these guys are 'coach potato coaches' sheesh.
NoPropsneeded> you can't get more rebounds than Bargs - your watching the game at home on TSN! You can get yourself a sandwich
ok a bit much
Here's the post I was to refer to:
Figure out how to be an effective 3rd/4th option??! lol what? Bargs is not going to rebound and his defensive skills aren't exactly all star calibur. This was apparent a looong time ago. Anyone who follows this team know that his biggest upside is his scoring. He's a tall body than can stretch the floor and is an above avarage spot up shooter. So what do you suggest? How the hell can he be an effective player shooting 2-4 shots per game?

Edson Barboza (10-1 MMA, 4-1 UFC) knows a thing or two about flashy knockouts, as witnessed by his now-legendary UFC 142 knockout of Terry Etim. Now he can brag about first-round upsets.
Barboza, a No. 14 seed in the voting for ESPN's 2012 ESPY Awards "Play of the Year," was voted past No. 3 seed and PGA Tour golfer Louis Oosthuizen for his double-eagle at the Masters this past April.
The Brazilian striker is now one of eight finalists eligible to take home the 2012 ESPY at the July 11 awards show.
Barboza is now paired against Winter X Games' Heath Frisby, who in January landed the first snowmobile front flip ever seen in the Games during the "Best Trick" competition. Frisby was originally a No. 11 seed and also scored an upset to advance, moving past NBA star Blake Griffin.
Voting is now underway at ESPN.com for the eight remaining finalists and lasts through the end of the week. Four finalists then get a one-day voting period on July 9 to determine the winner, which is expected to be announced at the July 11 awards show.
Barboza, who learned of his nomination only after his manager, Alex Davis, read about the honor on MMAjunkie.com, recently said he hopes the entire MMA community can take pride in his nomination.
"I am glad that someone from MMA is competing for this award," Barboza said. "I hope all the people who come from MMA will vote, and we will be able to see MMA on the top of the other sports."
Barboza's third-round wheel-kick knockout of Etim earned him a pair of bonuses at UFC 142 in Rio de Janeiro for both "Knockout of the Night" and "Fight of the Night." While Barboza is the lone combat-sports athlete remaining in the "Best Play" category, he's not alone as an MMA ESPY nominee. As previously reported, UFC champions Anderson Silva and Jon Jones are nominated in the category of "Best Fighter" against boxers Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Andre Ward. An MMA fighter never has won that category since its inception.
And quadruple amputee Kyle Maynard, who has trained and competed in MMA, is a nominee for "Best Male Athlete With a Disability," an award he won in 2004. He is nominated for becoming the first quadruple amputee to climb to the top of Africa's Mt. Kilimanjaro without assistance.
Along with Silva, Jones and Maynard, Barboza now joins Georges St-Pierre, Lyoto Machida, Quinton "Rampage" Jackson and Randy Couture as MMA fighters nominated for an ESPY.
Aside from the bracket-style "Best Play" category, fans can vote in 33 other categories at the ESPY Awards official website. The awards ceremony takes place July 11 at Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles and airs live on ESPN. The show will be hosted by actor and comedian Rob Riggle.
- 1. Jerome Simpson (NFL) vs. 8. Christian Watford (NCAA basketball)
- 2. Arkansas football (NCAA) vs. 7. Ben Revere (MLB)
- 5. Mario Manningham (NFL) vs. 13. Derek Salberg (college baseball)
- 11. Heath Frisby (Winter X Games) vs. 14. Edson Barboza (UFC)

OCEAN CITY – Barack Obama, who becomes our 44th President in January, ran on a platform promising change. And even as a Democratic administration portends a reshaped political agenda in this country, the conclusion of this electoral season may also bring significant change to the U.S. stock market, according to Merrill Lynch U.S. Sector Strategist Brian Belski.
"We have seen tremendous volatility the past few months, due to the number of unresolved issues weighing on the economy and markets—from the potential global recession to the future of U.S. leadership," said Belski. "Now we have clarity on one important issue: We know Barack Obama will be our president."
With one of the truly pivotal elections in our nation's history now over, Belski believes U.S. markets are poised to settle into a period of outperformance. Even if there is some additional downside movement in the immediate term, he feels that this is a time to reposition portfolios for exposure to a longer-term U.S. resurgence. "The stage is now set for a run," says Belski. "This is a significant opportunity for investors. The time horizon they should have in mind for this theme to start playing out is six to 12 months."
According to Belski, the economic pendulum, which had heavily swung against the U.S. in recent times, is now starting to turn in its favor. "The rest of the world is beginning to feel the brunt of the economic slowdown in the U.S., raising the relative risks in non-U.S. markets," he explains.
He notes that several years ago, many U.S. corporations made prudent business decisions such as paying down debt. Now, with strengthened balance sheets, these companies are in a better position to weather volatility than many of their global counterparts—which are, for the most part, located in countries just entering the malaise the U.S. has recently endured. As a result, many global investors who had been expressing reservations about U.S. equities are likely to re-enter the market.
One powerful economic factor driving a rejuvenated U.S. market is the recent performance of the dollar, which hit a 14-month high on Oct. 10. Merrill Lynch analysts point out that, based on the length of the two major strong-dollar cycles of the last 30 years — from October 1978 to March 1985 and from December 1987 to March 2002 — it's reasonable to believe that the coming cycle will last for some time. Strong-dollar cycles have also historically been a bellwether for positive sector performance.
Furthermore, Merrill Lynch research shows that foreign ownership of U.S. equities increases during periods of dollar strength. For that reason, Belski expects foreign investment in the U.S. to pick up in the months ahead, further boosting domestic stock performance.
If the U.S. is ready to break out, what areas of the market are poised to provide the new leadership? Belski believes that the growth category is likely to lead investors' move back into U.S. equities, as recessionary conditions narrow the field and highlight the true outperformers.
Belski has identified the following five cross-sector themes for the next several years. Investors can work with their financial advisors to identify potential strong performers within each of these themes.
— A growing concern for the environment. The prospects for this sector are bolstered by Obama's climate and energy agenda. "Companies that offer products and services to reduce negative environmental impact, alleviate energy bottlenecks or help find alternative energy sources, such as wind and solar, look particularly attractive," says Belski.
— Consumer conservatism. "Consumers are likely to look for less-costly alternatives for entertainment and leisure," Belski says. "Look to fashions that reflect frugality and sustainability, as many individuals are faced with rising household costs and are focused on improving their financial positions."
— Innovation will drive U.S. growth. According to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, for the 30th consecutive year the U.S. was awarded more than 50% of worldwide patents granted in 2007, a signal of an ongoing domestic commitment to creating breakthrough products. "The two most visible areas of innovation remain technology and health care," Belski notes.
— A continued slowdown in commodity costs, which have cut into business margins in recent years. "As economies around the world slow, demand for commodities is likely to fall," says Belski. "Price declines should have a positive impact on companies affected by higher input costs such as fuel."
— Increased acquisition activity. "Market price declines have created buying opportunities for those companies with sufficient available cash or financing," says Belski. "Companies strong enough to grow their businesses through acquisitions are effectively identifying themselves as potential outperformers."
To put yourself in the strongest position for a market turnaround like the one Belski anticipates in the U.S., consider focusing on these five themes — and on assets, sectors, industries and companies that deliver consistent, quantifiable earnings, cash, sales and margin growth. Change may be coming, but the time-honored practice of looking to quality will continue to serve investors well in these markets.

Nova 'really happy' with outing, progress
By Matthew Leach / MLB.com
JUPITER, Fla. -- Ivan Nova continues to progress in his quest to solidify his spot in the Yankees' 2013 rotation, as well as to put a disappointing 2012 behind him.
Nova pitched three innings in a 7-6 loss to the Cardinals, allowing a run on three hits -- all of them ground-ball singles. He struck out two and walked one. Nova threw 45 pitches, 27 strikes.
For a pitcher who, at his best, relies on throwing strikes and getting ground balls, it was an encouraging outing.
"I feel so happy," Nova said. "I'm getting back in shape, and I feel so good. I threw three innings. I feel really good, like I did last time. I was throwing strikes today."
Nova got off to a solid start in 2012 but faded badly in the second half. He posted a 7.05 ERA after the All-Star break and did not make an appearance for the Yankees in the postseason.
Johnson, Rivera to get bulk of time at first
JUPITER, Fla. -- As the reality of doing without Mark Teixeira settles in, it appears the Yankees have at least a tentative plan in place for handling his absence.
Teixeira is expected to be out until approximately mid-May after suffering a right wrist strain on Tuesday. He joins Curtis Granderson and Alex Rodriguez on the list of Yankees regulars who will miss the start of the season.
Manager Joe Girardi said Thursday that the bulk of the first base work in Spring Training will go to Juan Rivera and Dan Johnson, each of whom has played first base in the Major Leagues. Rivera, a right-handed hitter, has 83 starts there. Johnson, a lefty, has 306. Girardi indicated that it was unlikely the Yankees would make any significant move to add a first baseman from outside the organization.
"These two guys have played in the big leagues," Girardi said. "It's something you look at. I know [GM Brian Cashman] talked about, you can't go out and do too much, and then what do you do after a month when [Teixeira] comes back? I think whatever you do, you have to be careful. For me, my job is to look from within, because that's what I know we have. So that's what I'll do."
Kevin Youkilis could be an option at first, though that would open a hole at third base. Still, Youkilis will likely see a little bit of time on the right side of the infield in the spring and in the regular season.
"If we feel it's easier to put a guy at third and move Youkilis to first, we'll do that," Girardi said. "If it's easier to put a guy at first and leave Youk at third, we'll do that. Could it be a combination of the two? Yeah, it could be a combination of the two. He could play both."
Jeter cleared to resume full baseball activities
JUPITER, Fla. -- The Yankees announced Thursday that Derek Jeter has received final medical clearance to begin full baseball activities. He is expected to be at the team's Spring Training facility in Tampa on Friday.
Jeter had what the club called "a routine and scheduled visit" with Dr. Robert Anderson in Charlotte, N.C., on Thursday. Anderson performed the surgery on Jeter's broken ankle in October after he suffered the injury in the Game 1 of the American League Championship Series.
Manager Joe Girardi did not indicate when Jeter might first appear in a Grapefruit League game for New York.
"I'll talk to him when we get back from this trip and see where he's at," Girardi said. "I'm not just going to throw him at shortstop and leave him out there for a long time. We'll probably DH him first. Start with two at-bats and go from there."
Jeter has not played in a game since suffering the injury at Yankee Stadium on Oct. 13.
Rapada ailing; Logan, Robertson on mend
JUPITER, Fla. -- As though the injuries in their lineup aren't enough, the Yankees are also dealing with some issues in their bullpen.
Manager Joe Girardi announced on Thursday afternoon that left-hander Clay Rapada has been shut down due to bursitis in his throwing shoulder. Rapada joins Boone Logan and David Robertson on the list of Yankee relievers dealing with injuries.
However, Logan and Robertson appear to be progressing. Logan, who is dealing with a sore left elbow, is "feeling better" according to Girardi. Robertson has some shoulder discomfort but it is not believed to be serious.
The Associated Press reported that Logan and Robertson both played catch at the team's complex in Tampa, as did starter Phil Hughes, who is recovering from a back injury.

What an EXCELLENT review - I have just purchased the latest touch screen version 6 Aug 2013 and was looking for a peer comparison to justify my purchase! The only disappointment is the battery life which is the nature of the beast. It was a relief and hence my searching the net to find my only other choice Apple having the same battery life in work mode.
Many Thanks Paul.
Many Thanks Paul.

Hydrogen-Burning Hypersonic Airplane: Going Green at Mach-5
The proposed future of air travel is quite a marvel. Seems unfathomable compared to the pollutant, oil-guzzling airliners of today. With the endless and testing delays, the awkward security, and greenhouse gas-emitting beasts, it's a wonder why solutions have not yet come to fruition.
It just so turns out, it is all happening rather quickly behind the scenes. One proposed aircraft that seems wildly impossible is actually on the slate for possible funding for testing. The concept hypersonic jet has been developed by Reaction Engine and it is aptly called the A2. It is a Mach-5 (3,400 mph) wicked aircraft capable of holding 300 passengers and produces, get this, ZERO emissions!
The project has been supplemented in part through funding from the European Union's Long-Term Advanced Propulsion Concepts and Technologies project, otherwise known in short as (Lapcat). Lapcat is in search for an airliner that can cruise from Brussels to Sydney in less than 4 hours. The A2 can meet the expectations without leaving its footprint behind.
Engineers have been re-working the A2 with the Concorde's short comings in mind. The technical director of the project, Richard Varvill, believes that the Concorde was trashed for a few major reasons, limitations rather. First, it could not fly far enough, the limited range kept it from flying trans-Pacific routes. These routes are where the biggest market potential is for these hypersonic jets. Second, the Concorde's power plant was only efficient up to its Mach-2 cruising speed. The problem with that was when the jet was restricted to cruise at Mach-0.9 to avoid producing sonic booms; its gas mileage took a dive.
Because of these limitations that sank the Concorde, the A2 has compensated and improved upon the shortfalls. The A2 engine has two modes for efficient cruising which is a combination of ramjet and turbojet propulsion systems. These systems will allow the A2 to be efficient at slow speeds and also give it the power necessary to produce hypersonic very high speeds.
Some interesting twists include the lack of any windows in the design due to the heat the jet will have to mitigate and weight of space shuttle type windows that would be required. Although passengers like to have windows for viewing pleasure and comfort they might be willing to bend on that luxury to get from point A to B in 4 hours rather than the current 22 hour flight time.
The A2 will reach hypersonic speeds in the following manner:
Mode 1- The jet's four Scimitar engines send incoming air through the bypass ducts to the turbines. These turbines will produce thrust similar to today's jet engines. The turbine compresses incoming air and mixes it with fuel to generate combustion which is enough to push the jet off the runway and propel it up to Mach-2.5.
Mode 2- Once Mach-2.5 is achieved the A2 switches into high gear and begins to reach its value. The incoming air is rerouted into the engine's core with enough pressure to sustain combustion at speeds of up to Mach-5. This is the principle behind all ramjet designs, but the A2's Scimitar system kicks it up a notch by adding a turbine compressor to squash the air far more intensely.
The problem that has foreshadowed this idea is that air-breathing engines cannot use turbines due to the super heated air that enters the blades, some 1,800 degrees F. The Scimitar hopes to overcome this problem with the addition of a cooling system enveloped within the engine which will cool the air enough to allow it to run through a turbine.
The most astounding aspect of this concept is the ZERO emissions footprint. The A2 is hydrogen powered so that it discharges only water vapor and nitrous oxide through the exhaust. Even though hydrogen still sounds dangerous to most folks, the fuel is actually no more explosive than normal jet fuel.
Hypersonic propulsion experts say that there is nothing fundamentally unsound in the A2's plans. However, accomplishing the goal of making it happen is another story. Many obstacles will have to be overcome to perfect the design to the point of production. The heat exchange system is a serious issue and a massive engineering feat. Perhaps one of the biggest challenges is producing large amounts of hydrogen fuel without emitting carbon to do so. This leaves the A2 as not a truly green flying wonder because carbon-free hydrogen production is still a far ways off just yet but it is a radical start in a new direction.

Fish Camp Book Author Janet Garrity to Hold Book Signing During Beaufort's Shrimp Festival
Beaufort, SC – Beaufort author and photographer Janet Garrity will be signing copies of her book "Goin' Down the River, Fish Camps of the Sea Islands" on Saturday, October 6, 2012 from Noon to 3pm at McIntosh Book Shoppe, 917 Bay Street, Beaufort, SC during Beaufort's famous Shrimp Festival. The book, the first ever published about fish camps, includes Garrity's original photos, history, stories, old photos, and quotes about "goin' down the river."
Garrity said, "Fish camps are as familiar to South Carolina as crab pots and shrimp boats. 'Goin' down the river to the camp' is a very old, generational tradition in this part of the world, and this book is a means of preserving that tradition."
Garrity moved to Beaufort in 2008 from Ithaca, NY. Her professional career was in marketing and sales for 26 years, but her love for photography began at age eight when she picked up a box camera. "Goin' Down the River, Fish Camps of the Sea Islands" is the author's first publication. For information call McIntosh Book Shoppe (843) 524-1119 or visit www.garrity.com.

The Community Coalition, a grassroots organization of Detroit residents and community activists, announced today it is throwing its full support behind Mike Duggan for Mayor. The group announced its endorsement at a large community fair on the grounds of New Bethel Baptist Church, which over the years has played an important role in the Civil Rights movement and Black political activism.
The Community Coalition was formed in the early 1990s and has been instrumental in the successful runs of several mayors, judges, state representatives, senators, county commissioners and governors. Its founder, Ernest Johnson, said the role of the Community Coalition is to carefully vet candidates looking to represent the residents of Detroit and endorse those who have the constituents' best interests in mind. In this election, Johnson said that Duggan is the best choice to lead Detroit forward.
"When you look beyond where someone has lived and pay attention to what they have done throughout their career for Detroit, Mike Duggan is clearly the best person for the job," Johnson said. "Some people will call our endorsement a controversial choice, but it was an easy choice."
Johnson said he is committing the Coalition's resources to assist Duggan's field organization throughout the campaign.
Duggan said he has been greeted warmly by residents in every neighborhood of Detroit and is deeply appreciative of the Community Coalition's endorsement.
"There isn't an organization that is more grassroots and connected to every day Detroiters than the Community Coalition," Duggan said. "They are in the trenches every day fighting for meaningful progress that will improve the lives of all residents. I am honored they have entrusted me with their support."

Ok here's what Im thinking, The explosions in this picture (http://www.narutobase.net/manga/Naruto/604/15) Were used to cut off Kakashi & Rin's view. But Kakashi, using his sharingan, takes on one of the ninja. Now Kakashi is good, But I dont think he can handle an anbu-Level ninja at this period. Even with his sharingan (Which he just got) He probably couldnt match the speed of whoever he's fighting. Kakashi gets led on a little bit till he starts slowing down. The ninja gets infront of Rin & quickly dodges allowing a tired Kakashi to stab her.
Now I think the reason Obito's eye is starting to hurt is because he is the original link between the two eyes.
I saw a post that suggested that it could be genjutsu, But Obito holds his left eye socket http://www.narutobase.net/manga/Naruto/604/16 (Why would genjutsu affect an eye that isnt there?)
So the two sharingan are starting to re-establish a link with Obito because they are getting closer together. And Kakashi cant see Obito's POV because he is not the owner of the eye.
What do you think?

Montgomery County drowning toll rises to 7 with boy's death

An 8-year-old boy died after slipping off the Piney Shores Resort dock into six feet of water in Lake Conroe during a Sunday afternoon outing with his father and brother.
Precinct 1 Constable's Lt. Tim Cade said "it all happened very quickly," as the boy's father promptly pulled him out of the water and tried to administer CPR.
"Someone can inhale water that fills your lungs and be gone in minutes," said Cade. An autopsy has been ordered.
According to investigators, the boy was playing along the shore with his father and brother when he walked onto the dock, sat down and dangled his feet in the water. Then somehow he slipped into the water and his father rushed over to pull him out, Cade said.
"He was still conscious when his father carried him to the nearby picnic table and began administering CPR, with instructions from the 911 dispatcher," said Cade. The child was not responsive by the time emergency workers arrived and flew him to Memorial Hermann Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
Neither the name of the boy or his father, who is from Houston, was released.
This latest drowning brings to seven the number of lake-related deaths since May in Montgomery County.
Five of the earlier deaths also occurred in Lake Conroe - three from a boating accident and two who drowned after jumping off a dock or barge. The sixth fatality occurred when a swimmer drowned in a small private lake in the Lake Conroe Forest subdivision not far from Lake Conroe.


text: I'll keep an open mind and hope for the best no matter what direction they go in, but at this point I think a total reboot would be best. The so called Routhboot option would muddy the waters in my opinion (although that's reportedly the direction Warners is leaning towards). I'd like to see them step up development of some of other DC characters to follow on after Green Lantern, pushing a Superman relaunch back to about 2013. Then bring in a new cast in a Superman film that's much more sci-fi oriented. I'd like to see a long break from Lex Luthor, with Superman's other major villains taking center stage. And I wouldn't want another beat by beat origin story. Just retell the origin in quick beats in a montage as the credits play and then jump ahead to a point where Superman is an established superhero.

2nd Small Trimarans Book Coming Soon
For the last few weeks I've been working on a brand new Small Trimarans book (book #2). I tried hard to come up with a creative title for this one too — and I think I got the creative juices flowing and maxed out to a boiling fever pitch. As a result, I finally settled on a name for this new book on small trimarans. It'll be entitled, (drum roll please) (more…)

Mariah Carey is returning to her balladeer roots on her new track, "The Art of Letting Go." The song is off her upcoming 14th studio album of the same name.
The Rodney Jerkins-produced track features the singer calling out an ex-lover: "Your audacity is too much to be believed/ So go to Mimi on your contacts, press delete." The '60s-style production, complete with back-up singers, harkens back to "Vision of Love," off her self-titled debut, released way back in 1990.
Mariah shared the track–her first since releasing "#Beautiful" featuring Miguel back in May–with fans via her Facebook page. "This is such a personal record to me," she penned. "I wrote the lyrics so that anyone and everyone could relate to them and hopefully release anything that they need to let go of that's holding them back or bringing them down."

Tackling a topic that's hot on and off the school yard, UMass Medical School presented "Be Mentally Well: Understanding the Complex World of Bulling" on Oct. 12.
"Responding to the nationwide bullying crisis requires knowing how to recognize the signs as well as the social norms that promote a passive acceptance of bullying behavior," said Laura Myers, MSW, EdD, director of parent and community relations for the Department of Psychiatry, who established the Be Mentally Well series. "Fortunately, there is a range of prevention and intervention strategies that are effective in assisting our youth in building the essential skills needed to curb bullying."
A large audience, including Commissioner Barbara Leadholm and Assistant Commissioner of Child/Adolescent Services Joan Mikula from the Massachusetts Department of Mental Health, heard presentations offering practical information on a range of topics related to bullying. Negar Beheshti, MD, assistant professor of psychiatry and pediatrics, gave an overview focused on how to identify who are targets and who are aggressors. Dr. Beheshti, who directs the Child Psychiatry Consultation/Liaison Service and Child Emergency Mental Health Service at UMass Memorial Medical Center, has recently addressed bullying in local media outlets including the Worcester Telegram and Gazette and CBS-TV3 in Springfield.
Massachusetts Assistant District Attorney M. Julie Lesure spoke about how to use technology respectfully, responsibly and safely to help curb the unprecedented challenge of cyberbullying, laying out the emotional as well as legal consequences. Finally, experts Judith Thompson, coordinator of counseling, psychology and community outreach for the Worcester Public Schools and Sharon Rogan, behavior specialist at a Worcester elementary school, talked about what schools are doing and what families can do to change the culture that accepts bullying as a normal part of child development.
The bullying program was the latest installment of Be Mentally Well, a semiannual series of community education programs launched last year by the Department of Psychiatry to support children and families affected by mental illness.

Good Afternoon to All... I know that someone out there has some great ideas on how to transfer a Redwork pattern (paper only) onto either Muslin or light cotton. I do not have a light box (i've heard of this method), but hoping for a easy solution... any ideas??? Thanks in advance.... Sheryl
You can turn your pattern into a stencil by cutting small spots out and then you can mark your fabric like you would for a quilting stencil.
Vinton, Virginia
There are several ways you can create your own light box. You can use a window, use your TV on static, use a piece of glass over a lamp. To do this you can take the "guts" out of a larger framed picture, hold it on your knees and put a small table lamp between your legs or even place it between two TV trays. I have found it easier to trace quilting and embroidery patterns if I first transfer them to freezer paper then iron the freezer paper to the back side of my fabric. It stabilizes the fabric and makes it easier to trace and it keeps the pattern from shifting. You can also buy several different transfer pens and pencils that allow you to make a pattern by tracing on regular paper and ironing onto your fabric. What ever method you use just keep in mind that you may have to reverse your design especially if it contains words.
I hope some of my suggestions help. I found an older light at a garage sale that had a square white opaque lens and had my husband add a cord. I use that as a light box and it works great.
I hope to see your project when you are done, it sounds great.
If you don't own a light box....make sure you ask for one next time your birthday rolls around.....they are wonderful!! But, back to situation at hand.....tape your pattern to a window, then put your muslin over the top of the pattern and tape the muslin to the window also and trace....works great! The best tape to use is called carpenter's tape as it will not leave any residue.
welcome sheryl, thereis a great transfer paper that i love for quilting it's Saran. it should work for redwork too. you lay it over the muslin, put your pattern on top and trace the lines on your pattern. they will all show up on your muslin. i tape the muslin down and tape the pattern down, so i can lift the corners and peek . the saran is reusable until you wear off all the transfer gini
gini in north idaho
Thanks to All....
In addition to the great ideas already shared here, there are a couple more that I know of. First is transfer paper, like the kind used to transfer darts onto clothing. Just put it between your pattern and fabric and trace over the pattern lines. Make sure you don't use the waxy kind. There is also a new product that I have seen, but haven't tried yet. It is just like transfer paper, except the markings disppear in 48 to 72 hours. Has anyone tried this yet?
Another method that I use to transfer embroidery patterns for Crazy Quilting is to first trace the pattern onto regular tracing paper. Then cut out around the tracing, leaving at least 1" tracing paper around the pattern. Baste this to your fabric. Then using a running stitch, sew through the lines of your pattern. Then tear the tracing paper away. You can remove the running stitches as you embroider. Depending on the size of your embroidery thread and the color of thread used for your running stitch, sometimes you can just leave the running stitch there because you can't see it. The best part about this method is that there are no markings on your fabric.
I also sometimes cut around the pattern and iron it to the center of freezer paper that's as big as your background fabric, that is when I can see my pattern through my background. First,find the center of the freezer paper, pattern and background fabric by folding in half, then in half again. Then align the cross folds of the freezer paper and pattern and iron the pattern in place. Then align the background fabric and press that to the freezer paper. Then, using the tool of your choice, you can trace the pattern onto the fabric. The freezer paper acts as a stabilizer making it easier to get the pattern accurate.

Hi Gini! I read this it sounds like what i needed for doing quilting motif design transfer. I guess I have to think of the quilting motifs like applique project. What does the saran do?
Quilting My Rainbow
Sheryl, use the new frixion pens to transfer your design - they are the best - they iron away when you want them gone and stay until heat hits them. If you don't have a light box tape your pattern to a sunny window and tape the fabric over top of it and trace through it - or if you have a piece of glass - tape the pattern to that with the muslin and hold it up so the light is behind it.
Thanks Thea for the suggestion of frixion might help me with transfering quilting motif.
Just be sure to test the Frixion on a scrap of YOUR fabric before tracing the design. On at least some fabrics, there is a "ghost" of the ink after it "disappears". The ink isn't really gone. You can prove it by putting the scrap in cold water or even the freezer and it will reappear... I've had samples where the ink disappeared perfectly with the iron, but a faint white line was still visible in good light. I only use the Frixion when the lines can't/won't be visible on the quilt top...
stitcheraz:Just be sure to test the Frixion on a scrap of YOUR fabric before tracing the design. On at least some fabrics, there is a "ghost" of the ink after it "disappears". The ink isn't really gone.
This is what keeps me from using these pens on dark fabric. I used it on a couple blocks and really didn't like seeing those lines after I pressed.
thanks for tip . not sure how i'm going to do my transfer for bluework.

This article link was in the Friday Shortbread. Sadly they don't include any modern CPUs but it does show that some modern games definitely benefit from quad cores. It would have been nice if they'd included something like a 2c/4t i3 and a quad core i5 for comparison sake, but if you really want to do the work you can extrapolate from various reviews. It also shows that with a modern card, 'old' CPUs still give playable framerates - the Core 2 architecture really was a huge leap forward and is still usable.
Anyway, yes, older video cards that at least have unified shaders can still be decent. Running out of VRAM might be the biggest issue and cause the greatest performance drop-off. Plus if you only play older games then an older card won't suddenly become slower, power draw and noise then become the main upgrade reasons.

This Austin-based band just keeps getting better, and they take another leap forward with their fourth full-length release, a concept album that's loosely based around the song "Black Sheep Boy" from '60s folk singer Tim Hardin. The sound could be described as expansive folk-rock, using a variety of colorful instrumentation to flesh out lead singer and songwriter Tim Sheff's highly literate tales of outcasts. Reminiscent but by no means simply echoing bands like the Arcade Fire and the Decemberists, Black Sheep Boy is arty and yet emotional, epic and yet almost painfully personal and intimate. It's one truly special record. 4/1/2005 - Don Yates

Colorado inadvertently bumped more than 2,600 parents off Medicaid while expanding the government insurance program through a new fee on hospitals.
In addition, an unknown number of new applicants who would have been eligible have been denied during the past two months.
The state Department of Health Care Policy and Financing hired two temporary workers this week to help regular staff members try to patch up the glitch before the holiday weekend. A permanent solution isn't expected until August, however.
Families affected by the policy/computer error have been notified, said Ann Clemens, who works in the state's Medicaid eligibility office.
State workers were rushing through computer records on each of the affected 2,666 former Medicaid beneficiaries to make sure they could get prescriptions filled over the July Fourth weekend. They had to change every file manually because the system had blocked those patients from receiving benefits.
The system began terminating eligibility for the parents of children with Medicaid in early June as Colorado was expanding access to government insurance programs. The state extended eligibility to an estimated 24,000 children and pregnant women through Colorado's Child Health Plan Plus, as well as allowed Medicaid benefits for about 43,500 parents with at least one child on Medicaid.
Funds for the expansion come from a new fee levied on hospitals, plus federal dollars.
For parents with a child on Medicaid, eligibility in Medicaid went from the current 60 percent of the federal poverty level — $13,234 for a family of four — to 100 percent, or $22,056.
But as parents were added, the state switched them to another program — one with a rule mandating that everyone in the family had to apply for Medicaid for the parent to receive benefits. That meant the system began dropping parents on Medicaid if the other parent in the household was not enrolled, Clemens said.
State officials realized the problem before parents began getting dropped, but it was too late to fix it, Clemens said. The department has sent letters to doctors asking them to treat those patients anyway.
A letter sent to dropped beneficiaries said: "Our computer system does not show that you have Medicaid right now. This is a mistake. We are working to fix the problem."
When the system is fixed in early August, Medicaid will pay for doctor visits that happened in June and July, Clemens said.
Workers were trying to fix computer files for the dropped clients ahead of this weekend because at the start of the month, those records were automatically updated to show ineligibility for prescription drug coverage. The state went through the same process June 1.
Dropped beneficiaries received letters from the state to bring to their doctors, but according to the Colorado Center on Law and Policy, some physicians were not accepting the letters.
"We recognize that the department has been really good at trying to figure out a way to solve this problem," said Adela Flores-Brennan, a health care policy analyst with the law center. "But the fact is that there are 2,600 Coloradans who were wrongly terminated, and who knows how many more that are being wrongfully denied and could be going without needed medical services as a result.
"We are just really concerned about people getting access when they need health care, which they are entitled to."

The drought hasnt treated the Ipomopsis ramosa well, but the species will bounce back, Al Schneider said as he pointed to withered flower stems along Roaring Creek Road about 30 miles north of here.
Only a few of the flowers displayed their delicate coral-colored blooms.
Schneider, a retired English professor and amateur botanist who lives in Lewis, has reason to keep his eye on the Ipomopsis ramosa.
Hes credited with discovering the flower, to which he gave a common name: Coral ipomopsis.
Recognition came slowly, which isnt unusual in the world of botany, Schneider said. He first noticed the species in June 2006 while driving Roaring Creek Road with his wife, Betty.
Several prominent botanists examined specimens and told him it was a variant of an already-known species.
But doubt nagged as he observed the flower time and again while traveling the road on his way to hike the Colorado Trail.
In early 2011, he made a minute analysis of the flower, the findings of which were corroborated by professionals in the field.
Finally, it was confirmed as a new species in November 2011 after the two top experts on Phlox family members (of which the Ipomopsis ramosa is one) recognized its one-of-a-kind attributes.
There is no local, national or international authority in botany as there is in birding, Schneider said. In botany, consensus and time count. There is no final, single arbiter.
He held a blossom of the Ipomopsis ramosa next to one from an Ipomopsis aggregata growing nearby, pointing to differences that at a cursory glance escape the untrained eye.
Schneider arrived in Southwest Colorado in 1990 after a career in academia. He taught English at the University of Wyoming and at Saint Louis Community College in Missouri.
A lifelong interest in nature, particularly botany, and a keen eye paid off with two earlier botanic discoveries.
In August 2008, Schneider came across a flower he didnt recognize while helping Peggy Lyon, a Colorado Natural Heritage Program field botanist, catalog plants in Lone Mesa State Park.
Three months later, he published information about the Gutierrezia elegans, a member of the sunflower family that displays abundant yellow blossoms.
Earlier the same year, Schneider was hiking with his wife in Lone Mesa State Park when he found a ground-hugging plant with yellow flowers. But new-species recognition for the Packera mancosana, a member of the sunflower family, wasnt established until June 2011.
Lone Mesa State Park, 23 miles northwest of here, is under development and closed to general access. Special activities are allowed with a permit elk hunting, a butterfly count and cataloging of plants.
The Ipomopsis ramosa grows most frequently in disturbed and undisturbed Cutler formation red sandstone at elevations ranging from 8,200 to 9,200 feet. It prefers steep slopes with south, southwest or southeast exposures.
Its common in this valley, but not common throughout Montezuma County, he said.
Lyon, who has been with the Colorado Natural Heritage Program for 18 years, said there are 13,000 locations in Colorado with rare plants, animals or natural communities (specific combinations of species).
We keep track of hundreds of vascular plants and nonvascular species such as mosses and lichen, Lyon said.
Species are ranked from 1 to 5 statewide and globally, with 1 being rare and 5 common, she said. Rankings of 4 and 5 dont get much attention.
At this point, Schneiders three discoveries should carry a No. 1 ranking globally and in Colorado because theyre not known to exist in more than one place, Lyon said.
The discovery of the Ipomopsis ramosa paves the way for in-depth studies of the species, Schneider said.
Interested scientists could study the soil, elevation and temperature most favorable to the species; how its seeds propagate; whether it has predators or if it hybridizes. The current emphasis on genetics in college botany could result in a study of its DNA.
The two earlier discoveries take nothing from the thrill of his latest find, Schneider said.
Theyre different, but theyre all special, Schneider said. Each one was brand new the same as the 1,000 flowers on my website were new to me at one time.

[pullquote quote="He's very generous with his time when it comes to his fans." credit="Producer Jerry Bruckheimer (on Johnny Depp)"]
The star power at Disneyland last Saturday night as the California theme park hosted the World Premiere of the fourth movie in the Pirates franchise, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, was almost enough to light the entire park!
We were lucky enough to be there in attendance to witness the celebrity arrivals and strolls down the "black" carpet. Plus, we got one of the first looks at the gorgeous 3D film as it was presented on a gigantic outdoor screen overlooking a pirate moat.
The movie's stars and creative team seemed to be just as excited about the film and the event (which was a benefit for the Boys & Girls Clubs of America) as we were.
Here's what they had to say:
Penelope Cruz (Angelica)
How was it becoming the first female pirate in the Pirates franchise?
Penelope Cruz: It was a lot of fun. It was six amazing months of my life traveling around the world with Johnny and Rob and all these amazing cast members. It was really one of the greatest experiences I've had working on a movie. I am a huge fan of what Johnny has created with this character so it is a huge honor to have been invited into the fourth one.
And what do you think of this huge turnout for the World Premiere?
PC: I mean it's amazing to have our premiere at Disneyland.
Johnny Depp (Captain Jack Sparrow)
How does it feel returning as the infamous Capt. Jack Sparrow?
Johnny Depp: Number four, the fourth time out. Uhm, very exciting, you know, as always, very exciting and you hope…your one hope really is that, you know, people enjoy it, the kids, that people enjoy it you know, because that's who we made it for. I mean to me, every time that I'm able to, you know, step into those raggedy old clothes is a gift…it's a great gift.
The fans are extremely excited about having the World Premiere here at Disneyland. Is that exciting to you as well?
JD: Well that's what's really nice about doing this whole scenario at Disneyland, you know, is that it becomes this, you know, even more of a major event. People can really cut loose and have a good time. I mean it's a huge energy, but what it is more than anything for me it's an opportunity to sort of be able to give back, you know. Give back in a sense of like say thank you to the people, face to face, thank you. So that I do enjoy very much.
NEXT: Geoffrey Rush/Ian McShane/Keith Richards
Geoffrey Rush (Barbossa)
Are you excited for the World Premiere?
Geoffrey Rush: I read stuff today online, or maybe it was in the paper, I saw the construction of the screen and everything, I don't know, six stories high and ten stories wide. They planned this I think before we even started shooting the film. That's a lot of pressure! (laughs)
How does this latest installment stack up to the rest of the franchise?
GR: Jerry Bruckheimer's got a good, you know, traditional but exciting sense of events. And when you're four films in, and we know we've got a good one, I saw it at the El Capitan four or five nights ago. And it just plays…it's fantastic.
Ian McShane (Blackbeard)
How was it working on your first Pirates film?
Ian McShane: With Johnny and Geoffrey and Penelope it was terrific. We had a great time. Six months in Hawaii, LA, London, and I hear the film's terrific. So we'll see.
Keith Richards (Captain Teague)
You're back as a pirate once more! Did you have a good time reprising the role?
Keith Richards: It's fun, I almost feel like an old hand. It's different for me. To me it's a kind of bit of fun and a laugh, and I love working with Johnny. It's about as cool as it gets.
NEXT: Sam Claflin/Kevin McNally
Sam Claflin (Philip)
This is your first feature film, so it must all be very exciting!
Sam Claflin: I feel like that I'm in an absolute dream world, you know. None of this is real, right? I'm going to have to pinch myself a lot. But we're here for the premiere of Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides and I'm very excited to sort of be a part of it. I can't imagine I have many fans, but I'm looking forward to experiencing it for the first time. I'm very much shocked to be here…very, very shocked.
Kevin McNally (Joshamee Gibbs)
How does it feel to be back as Joshamee Gibbs once more?
Kevin McNally: We're back for the fourth time. Who would have thought eight years ago that we'd be back here for the fourth one. But I think even better than before. I hope so anyway. I'm sure all these people will tell us very soon.
The fan support of the Pirates films is overwhelming. Can you believe how many have turned out today?
KM: Over the last eight years of course, I've become, uh, more literate with the internet so I can see that these people have this huge communication, particularly about today, and there's been a great excitement about it and I don't think they're going to be disappointed.
NEXT: Rob Marshall/Jerry Bruckheimer
Rob Marshall (Director)
What is the secret of keeping this franchise going?
Rob Marshall: The Pirates fans are incredible because they love this franchise so much, and we're just so happy to give them another exciting adventure, we really are and this one's really fun. I think it's a real ride. I think it's funny. I think it has great velocity and pace and Johnny is exquisite. And we have a female pirate with Penelope, so it's really great.
This is your first time in the director's chair for a 'Pirates' film. What drew you to the project?
RM: Johnny and this amazing character he's created is the reason for these films. He's so colorful, you know. He's an extraordinary artist I have to say. He's also an extraordinary person. And I think people feel that. You feel his heart. He's that amazing, you know.
Jerry Bruckheimer (Producer)
The fan turnout for the World Premiere is amazing!
Jerry Bruckheimer: People have been lined up since last night, they stayed out all night to be here, and what's exciting is this is a charity event also, and so we have fans from all around the world who bought tickets before it was announced that they were asking for tickets. So they're real special to us and we're excited to show them this movie in 3D, which is the first time we've ever done that.
What's different about this 'Pirates' outing?
JB: Penelope Cruz, whose first time in a Pirates outfit, but she's very beautiful and exciting and a wonderful actress. And we have a couple of new kids, Sam and Astrid, are our new young kids, and Ian McShane plays the baddie, Blackbeard.
It seems like it would be a lot of fun to be involved in these films.
JB: Well the fun is you make these pictures for the fans, and when they show their appreciation like this, you know, we've entertained hundreds of millions of people around the world with Pirates of the Caribbean, and that's real exciting to us. To make people's lives just a little better for a couple of hours.
What do you see as the true reason for the success of the 'Pirates' franchise?
JB: Well, Johnny Depp, you know, he's such a wonderful man, it shines through on the screen. You know, the bigger the screen, the more you like him. He's an irreverent character and he loves doing these and he loves his fans. He's going to spend a lot of time, you know, talking to his fans, taking pictures with them, signing autographs. He's very generous with his time when it comes to his fans.


text: was wondering who else uses polarized sunglasses to play tennis and your thoughts on polarized vs non -polarized lenses. I like how the polarized lenses cut the glare, but they seem to play with my eyes.... or at least it's in my head that they mess with my eyes and possibly depth perception. Do you use polarized or normal lenses? Other than glare reduction, Do you find polarized lenses to be different from regulsr lenses in what and how you see. Been needing to get new sunglasses but not sure if I want to get another pair of polarized or just get regular lenses... would like to hear your opinion

Dell Mini 5: Awesome new details emerge
February 27, 2010 | by Ed Clark
Android, Android Devices, Dell, MID, Rumors
A few weeks ago, Androinica had a short post about the Dell Mini 5 tablet. We speculated that the machine would be a competitor to the iPad, but details were scarce and Michael Dell only confirmed a few features in the brief video shot by Tech Crunch. These included the fact that the machine would have 3G capabilities and an outward facing camera. Mr. Dell dodged questions about the processor, pricing, and launch date.
Recently, a few more specific details have come to light in a recent article by Wired magazine that should make Android fans even more excited. These include:
- Wi-Fi and 3G connectivity
- A Qualcomm Snapdragon 1-GHz processor
- 5-inch screen (16:9 ratio) with Flash included
- A 5-megapixel camera on the back, and a separate front-facing camera (for video conferencing)
- A standard 3.5-mm headphone jack
Of course, having Flash means the tablet will ship with the latest Android OS. So add Google Earth and Live Wallpapers to the things this little friend will be able to do for you.
Neeraj Choubey, general manager of Dell's tablets division promises that the iPad is indeed a target, and that folks turned off by the small size of the Mini 5 (a plus for some) will have other options as well. "We are going to have a family of tablets. The first one is a 5-inch screen, but we want to scale that up to a variety of screen sizes."
Wow. Get ready, iPad. It seems that all the critical things that Apple left off of their machine (besides a giant screen) will show up on Dell's version. In the end, people will want to do things like make video calls to their friends and relatives, watch Flash videos (90% of video content on the internet), and be able to use multiple applications simultaneously. And the advantages of the gigantic iPhone app market is not so clear as it once was: the Android Market has over 30,000 apps already, and is growing faster than any other app market.

text: Just an update... I believe I have been learning/hitting straight arm forhand for a year now, and it is a bumpy road, up and downs... But now I am pretty confident of my forhand, and it has become a huge weapon, I am happy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B2D2A4oUERM 1 question tho. I have noticed that both Nadal, Djokovic and many other double handed backhand players, their non-dominate hand always hold racket throat area when in ready position between each shot. Why they do that? I can understand single handed backhand doing it, but... My non-dominate hand always, always on racket handle and in backhand grip(i am somewhere between continental and eastern-forhand ). Is taht because making take-back as low as possible(to get below the ball)? Can somebody explain this? Thanks in advance!

Hey guys,
So after a rather serious lack of foresight the other day I came home to a dead computer with water pooling round the bottom (rain and wind and an open window... don't ask) and am in the process of trouble shooting and working out whether I'll be building a new PC a few months sooner than expected...
Long story short, I'm starting by buying a new PSU and will swap it out first and just see if the rest of the components are still good, but my intention is that the new PSU I purchase will carry over to the new gaming PC I intend to build sometime in the next few months in any event, so I want to make sure it will have enough juice for whatever I throw in.
My current system is a Q6600 with a Radeon 4890HD, a few terabyte hdds, 4Gb DDR2, dvdrom drive, and was previously running on a Corsair HX620.
I haven't really kept up to date with the market but I've been holding off putting together the new PC because of the latest graphics card releases and now for the new range of intel/AMD chipsets. At the moment I'm working from a rough guesstimate based on having a Radeon 6970 or something like a Geforce GTX480/570, and a Core i7 950, with 8-12Gb DDR3 ram and a few terabyte HDDs.
My question is what sort of wattage should I be looking at to ensure I've got more than enough power to cater for building an up to date gaming machine (and possibly future-proofing for any of the upcoming chipsets?) in the next few months based on these sort of specs? I'd be grateful for any recommendations for a particular PSU as well. I don't have a massive budget for absolute top of the line, but don't mind paying a little bit more for a quality PSU. The HX620 served me very well, but I'm guessing I'll want a fair bit more than HX620 to power a new gaming rig with the latest mid-high range graphics card/CPU.

Actually, that's a good question. What do they need to switch bodies? They were afraid that the total annihilation in the absorption chamber was going to be permanent... That means it could have been the end of them, hadn't Lumiere's power been "Particle".

*Dextro tries to revive this old thread*
Seeing as how we are now getting a sequel of sorts I decided to go and re-watch this show for the 3rd time to freshen up on my memories and I've got to say: the first 8 or so episodes aren't has bad as I remembered them. It's rather simple to see the purpose of almost every one of the episodes: they introduce a different ES Team in each one of them.
Re-watching this made me remember what got me into anime in the first place. The world and story is very interesting and the characters are as well. We have some nice plot twists and the soundtrack is amazing. And let us no forget that GONZO had some kick ass animation at the time that still holds up its own to even some shows airing today.
The only minor complain I still have about this shows is the over-use of panty shots from time to time but compared to what we're getting in Kiddy Girl-and (especially episode 6) I'm starting to reconsider if it's even relevant anymore.
Oh well, overall this show is still one of my favorites of all times (being part of the 5 or so shows that got me into anime for real might also have something to do with it).

Hello there. I can say it proudly. This was my pioneer anime in 2004. I saw accidentally episode 14 (steel/Heart), instantly I was hooked. I watched the whole season several times during that year. That is when my otaku self was born.
This week-end, Watched it again the whole 24 episodes without interruption... even if it was the xx'th time, I loved it. It made me remember my childhood and my dreams.
Never again I had the same feeling towards another anime like this one. It was a masterpiece, I'll cherish its memory. Maybe a few years later I'll watch it again to remember myself of who am I, and where did I start from.

DP Motorsport Porsche 911 body kit drops almost 500 poundsEarly 911's are not exactly heavy cars. The lightest examples tip the scales at around 2400 pounds. DP Motorsport shaves around 450 pounds from that for a vehicle that weighs under 2000 pounds. How do they do it? Well, starting with a 1973 911 as a base the carbon fiber body kit replaces bumper, hood, fenders, spoiler, and even the roof panel. They also replace the windows with plexiglass. The interior is stripped out leaving a vehicle with a weigh of only 870 kilograms, impressive.

how is that supposed to be a 964? It looks almost nothing like it....it looks more like a mid 80s RSR. 80s taillights and headlights and bumpers. I had a customers car back in the day that looked exactly like this.
Itsbrokeagain - 11-15-2011, 03:15 AM
The weight savings is there. On the RSR we cut all the sheetmetal off, and replaced everything with fiberglass...including the roof. Only the windshield was left glass, everything else was lexan.
Stripped down the interior, cut out all the unnecessary wiring (over 30lbs of it!).
I think with the cage installed, we sat at a hair over 1800lbs without driver. That was sitting in race trim...with 17x11 Fikse wheels, and Hoosier slicks.

Orioles, Reimold come to terms on one-year deal
By Paul Casella / MLB.com
Reimold, 29, played in just 16 games last year after a herniated disk in his neck landed him on the disabled list from May 1 through the end of the season. In his lone month of action, however, he hit .313 (21-for-67) and still managed five home runs and 10 RBIs.
The left fielder also played well in limited action in 2011, connecting for 13 home runs, 10 doubles and three triples while driving in 45 runs over 87 games. In his four Major League seasons, all with the Orioles, Reimold is a .261 hitter with 36 long balls and 114 RBIs.
With Reimold under contract, the Orioles now have only eight arbitration-eligible players -- Matt Wieters, Chris Davis, Brian Matusz, Troy Patton, Tommy Hunter, Jason Hammel, Jim Johnson and Darren O'Day.

I've been using Ubuntu for the past days, but now I want to just move back to Windows. So how do I Uninstall Ubuntu, and get the space back for the partition I made for it?
Like, the 200 GB I gave Ubuntu when I installed it?
Thanks in advance!

Science Teacher Quality and Effectiveness: Gweru Urban Junior Secondary School Students' Points of View
The purpose of this study was to examine the perceptions among junior secondary science students from Gweru Urban secondary schools in Zimbabwe towards science teachers' teaching quality and effectiveness. This qualitative study approached and interviewed Form 2 students from 10 different schools in Gweru urban. The results show that three key dimensions of science teacher quality and effectiveness emerged: teacher's scientific knowledge, teacher's pedagogical skills and teacher's social competence. Findings suggest that the teachers can promote and enhance teaching effectiveness by applying a positive student approach, understanding students' learning difficulties, acknowledging the individual student, being someone the students can trust, being able to organise and teach in interesting and flexible ways, using good teaching methods, their ability to plan and structure the content and the use of practical investigative science in the classroom. Student perspectives, however, retain a humanistic vision of teaching and learning. Students want teachers who care and respect them, who help them learn and make learning interesting and fun. This study adds value by unveiling the key antecedents and predictors of students perceptions thus confirm previous findings that teacher quality is an important educational issue. It is apparent from this study that quality teachers must embrace the vision of caring for students and their learning.The results of the research indicated that students highly value teachers who are both passionate about the subject taught and passionate about their students. Secondary school science students prefer teachers who teach science in a way that is both interesting and relevant to the student.

Read more: Mobil 1 Technology Series | Breaking down the 2014 qualifying format | More tweaks to format
The new "knockout" qualifying procedure instituted by NASCAR for 2014 is dynamic, increases the competitive attraction for the teams and fans and gives track operators and television partners a Friday show.
It also has spun the heads of drivers, crew chiefs and engine tuners to a fare-thee-well.
"Do I use a qualifying setup, or do I make it a race-day setup?" is one of the questions being asked. "How do I keep the engine cool with multiple laps and only a five-minute break?" is another.
Perhaps the biggest one is going to be, "When do I go out, how often do I go out and what happens if everybody goes at once?"
Read more: Mobil 1 Technology Series | Breaking down the 2014 qualifying format | More tweaks to format
The rules, at least, are simple:
At tracks measuring 1.25 miles in length or larger, there will be three rounds of qualifying. The first will last 25 minutes and all cars will be involved. From that, the top 24 cars will advance to Round 2. Those that don't move on will be lined up in descending order.
Then comes the first five-minute break, where three crewmen will be allowed over the wall to make adjustments but not tire changes. In addition, one crewman will be allowed to make adjustments during qualifying sessions.
The second round is 10 minutes long, and the top 12 will move on to the final round. The 12 that don't make it will be installed in positions 13-24.
After a five-minute break, the final 12 cars will duke it out for the Coors Light Pole position over five minutes.
At tracks of less than 1.25 miles and at road courses, there will be two rounds, the first 30-minute session to determine the top 12 and the second to see who wins the Coors Light Pole position. There's a 10-minute break between the sessions.
There's strategy that has yet to be developed, but it isn't for lack of thinking about it, you can be sure.
"There's so many smart people in this sport that are putting so much thought into it, that when we get there, we're all going to be thinking the same thing: waiting for somebody to make a move," said Jason Ratcliff, crew chief for Matt Kenseth. "It's going to be a lot of unknowns. There's going to be some bad Saturdays, and it's not because your car is slow."
Technically, the biggest challenge will be keeping one set of Goodyear Eagles in shape to post multiple fast laps over an hour's time.
"New tires are so important," Ratcliff said. "If you don't get that first lap in, we could see some top-performing cars not make the second session. It's not because they aren't fast, it's just misfortune."
Another big question is, what kind of fluids do you use to make the speed you need and keep your engine from turning itself inside out?
"I think a lot of that is going to come down to the engine guys, if we can use qualifying oil (provided by Mobil 1) or how much temperature they want to see," said Donnie Wingo, crew chief for the Wood Brothers and driver Trevor Bayne. "It's still going to be tire management. You only have one set of tires for the whole three sessions.
"It's going to be a process."
Part of that process is figuring out how much tape you want to use when qualifying, said Dave Rogers, crew chief for Kyle Busch.
"When you qualify, you can tape the grille off solid," he said. "You add a ton of front downforce, and that makes the cars free, so you have to tighten them back up. With three rounds of qualifying and multiple laps, you're not going to be able to add all that tape. You have to take some off, which means you won't tighten up as much mechanically."
Remember, instead of two laps at a bite, you might have to run 15-20 under the new rules. Tire management is the new magic bullet, and you still have to have the car fast as it can be.
"You still have all your other adjustments," Rogers said. "In qualifying, you dial in your camber and get really aggressive with it and it won't blow up in two or three laps. I have to make the right front last 50-60 laps in the race, so you'll still have a qualifying setup but you won't be quite as aggressive."
Another factor that involves the engine is the cool-down period. NASCAR has not allowed the teams to put cold water in the engines to get them cool during or between sessions, so that's another factor that crew chiefs and engine tuners have to contend with.
"Without using a cool-down unit, putting cold water into it, you're not going to have enough time to cool it down in the five-minute break," Rogers said. "You have to take some tape off."
There are many permutations that have to be solved, once the process is set in motion at Phoenix International Raceway.
There are some rules that the teams are not yet sure about, but NASCAR will have those in place before Speedweeks is over.
The trio of tires, tape and timing will require some trial and error.
If you don't take care of the tires, you're done early. If you have too much tape, or not enough, you're too slow. If you miss the timing and put up your fast lap early rather than late, you'll be starting in the middle.
Or you could play it right and win the pole simply by hitting the timing just right and factoring in the other teams' errors.
Once somebody finds the secret sauce, so to speak, it could be big, Ratcliff said.
"You could see an organization that hits on something and it is lights out," he quipped. "It's endless, and it's going to keep the competition from being stagnant -- and it's going to keep one or two teams from being as dominant as they might have been in the past."
It seems with the new Chase format and the knockout qualifying rounds that NASCAR is adding freedom for teams. Rogers said that's a huge step forward.
"I'm a fan of less regulation," he said. "You look back in this sport, you have your Smokey Yunicks, your Junior Johnsons, who were extremely creative. ... Now you find that a large section of the rulebook has been ripped up and thrown away and it allows some of that creativity to come back.
"It's going to be a lot of work for several months, and that's a challenge, but it's getting back to what this sport was founded on: less regulation, let us race."

Really do not care about losing to the Niners. Non conference games mean nothing if you can have enough conference wins to get you to the dance.
In your scenario, I would rather a loss to the Rams than SD.
Lets be honest though, The Jets know Schotty inside and out. I do not think the Rams have a chance in that game.
before i forget....special thanks to baddiness for helping me get BACK IN!!
and for helping...i took it easy on yahoo pools for 2 weeks......but DBAKE turning up the heat from here on out!!
You got a bum rap on that last BAN welcome back.
The thread title is misleading. I thought this thread was about Jay Mohr.
I did not know that people on my ignore list were removed when banned.
Welcome back. It has been awfully quiet around here.
Even more lame than making a goodbye thread, making a thread to announce you've returned to an online message forum, gay.
