USA Centerfire Rifle Cartridges
5.56 NATO, M855, 62 Grain, Steel Core Full Metal Jacket, Green Tipped
This ammo is from a fresh factory run of ammunition that did not meet spec for a military contract. The cases of the ammo may be dented or otherwise not 100% uniform in a way that does not affect performance.
The two most common 5.56 rounds are the 55gr M193 and the 62gr "green tip" M855, both of which are used by the US military. The US made M855 is painted with a green tip to distinguish it from M193, so that troops do not shoot M855 in their 1 turn every 12 inch twist barreled M16's that would fail to properly stabilize the heavier and much longer bullet (length being a primary factor in bullet stabilization). The NATO SS109 62gr steel core "penetrator" bullet is used in the M855 round. The steel penetrator makes it more effective at penetrating hard targets and such.

Counseling for High Skills (CHS) Program Evaluation, 1994, 1995, and 1997: [Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Kansas, and Nebraska] (ICPSR 2757)
Principal Investigator(s): Hudis, Paula M.
This student survey focused on the ways students learn about and make plans for postsecondary education and employment. Individual high school students from 24 high schools in Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Kansas, and Nebraska were surveyed. The data were collected via paper and pencil surveys administered by evaluators from MPR Associates or school staff, including counselors and teachers. The fall 1994 survey of 10th- and 12th-graders gathered information on student characteristics and on students' career and postsecondary education plans. The spring 1995 survey collected information on the previously-surveyed 12th-graders to update their plans as graduation neared. In spring 1997 the 12th-graders, who were surveyed as 10th-graders in 1994, were surveyed again. Survey topics included students' conversations with friends, parents, other relatives, teachers, guidance counselors, and other adults regarding postsecondary education and careers or occupations, goals for postsecondary education and employment, and plans for achieving those goals. Background information on respondents includes age, sex, race, parents' education, parents' employment status, and subject matter of courses taken.

I don't know where you picked (weren't you last?) but I was 3rd and have made 8 moves, you've made 28!
I don't know where you picked (weren't you last?) but I was 3rd and have made 8 moves, you've made 28!
This league is getting more and more competitive, just look at how K4L turned the former Sweepers into a beast in just a weak!
Otherwise, I don't see how you could claim a guy as #11 on the wire, Clyde be #12, and have your waiver claim be rejected, while Clyde gets him.
Who was the player in question?
Re: Clyde's 28 moves, you can do 4 instantaneous add/drops each week; but this is of players who had never been drafted/claimed. Not players someone drops/has dropped, and then go through the waiver wire period. The waiver wire rankings each week rotate, progressively -- if you are #12 on a given waiver wire period, you'll be #1 the next.
Not that it matters in this case he did me a favour as my trade went through and I'm now flush with guard talent, but I just wondered how it works for future reference.
I hope I can hold off until my troops come back from their Chinese Vacation. I still have alot of ground to make up
I was number 12 because I had just picked up Teague (and then dropped him), but before that I was a higher number. the last person to pick a player up on waivers becomes number 12.
on another note, congrats to Rono for handing Metro his first defeat, an incredibly close matchup due to the Coquis sleeping on Monday, not setting lineup, and essentially losing due to said f*ckup. so important to set your lineups in advance, so as not to let this happen.
congrats to Pringles for the other intense win over MusketeerX, another nail biter down the sunday wire.
Rady and Knicks4Life have tranformed their team into winners, both will be hard to beat.
Crazy 8's has imploded his top high-scoring team so he can root for the Knicks, go figure, and no longer has a Gay Love team, but a roster of Knickerbockers and scrubs. live and die by the home team! rock!
Looking ahead, an easy week for Coquis over the non-playing DaTRPRINE, who should have been banned from the league weeks ago, an intriguing matchup of the newfound Pork Pirates vs Rady's Hot Mice on Fire, Pringles newly bolstered meaty mustache men vs the newly empowered RTE1 Traffic Jam, Scorgasms vs P0nder, KBlack vs Bouncy2 (a good one!), and the Crust Crew taking on MusketeerX. Good luck to all, and set your lineups!
not sure what I should do about a hurt Varejao, with Spencer Hawes rarely playing and Eric Gordon STILL not playing, it's like having half a team of gimps! I got a lotta PG's if anyone's interested in trade! LATER!
K4L Available :
K4L Needs :
Another Bigman would be willing to 2 for 1
K4L thank you for the recent trade offers everyone. I am still looking for players I like as I did not draft these guys.
Coquio's most loved player in Ibaka has been traded. Coquis are sending out a message they were not pleased with the previous week of fail and are looking to tear the down the house after a disgusting 6 - 1 record.
Ibaka's new team, The Pringles will enjoy his triple double potential (PTS, REB, BLK) and his efficiency.
Welcome the newest Coqui, Tony Parker. I love PG's and Tony P will bring his consistency to my squad.
Coquis have left a Kobe Bryant offer on the table for the Mad Mice Men of Romania.
Kobe Bryant, slong with Paul George and Stehen Jackson are being offered
in exchange for
Josh Smith, DeMarcus Cousins and Anthony Morrow.
Coquis are cleaning house and are looking to drop everyone that isn't named Rubio, Howard, and Kemba Walker out of all people (Its a Bronx thing).
Peace out.
Pringles4Life and Coquis have consummated a deal. Simple, but high-impact 1 for 1 swap.
T. Parker
*I'm always open for business, but barring new trade scenarios, I'm no longer actively in the market looking to deal.
That is an extremely interesting trade proposal to The Mice....
Coquis upper management truly is cleaning house with a proposal like that, despite a league-leading point total.
Tony is a warrior, and his veteran consistency will be a great presence and addition to playing alongside Rubio with Coquis, especially after the debacle that led their first loss, and J. Jarret going down with injury. He will be in good hands.
Most excited for the addition of Mr. Ibaka. Especially after the blockbuster deal with the Gayed Pirates, my squad is itching to unleash, and make a move to finish the season vying for the #1 League Point Total.
so i dropped Spencer Hawes, the guy's played like 2 games the past month. been holding onto Eric Gordon, who's played 2 games the entire season, and now Varejao's gone for a month... what to do? drop one of the best rebounders in the league? does anyone care to take him off my hands, along with Marshon Brooks? I stupidly dropped Jeff Teague to bolster my PF lineup, so congrats to whoever gets him. not really sure what to do at this point re Varejao, can anyone offer this crusty cat a suggestion?
I'm not in the Teague running, but that will be a wise pickup to whomever is jonesing for him.
Hawes was a good drop, IMO -- even when he comes back, it's so unclear when he will/won't play. Can crush fantasy weeks having an injured guy, AND not knowing whether to play them or not.
Nevermind Read he is out for MINIMUM one month, and no definite time table.
Good thing you traded Bosh for two quality PF/Cs.

A state lawmaker from Los Angeles has taken four trips to Las Vegas to take in marquee prizefights and host glitzy fundraisers, in one case handing out boxing gloves with his autograph to Sacramento lobbyists in attendance.
Sen. Kevin de León didn't pay for the jet setting, hotels, entertainment and gloves out of his own pocket or his campaign treasury.
Instead, he tapped a separate account he established to support and oppose ballot measures — committees subject to less restrictive rules that are being used by some legislators to regain the freedom of old-time political hobnobbing.
De León wields considerable power as chairman of the Appropriations Committee, which serves as a gateway for most bills to be considered by the full Senate.
De León's "Believing in a Better California" committee raised $188,150 and spent $168,385 over the last two years. Just $35,400 — about 21 percent of the money spent — went to help pass or defeat ballot measures, according to a review by U-T Watchdog.
Much of the remainder went to consultants, lawyers and toward tickets, airfare and hotels for the high-dollar fundraisers, including fights between boxing superstar Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Márquez, Timothy Bradley and Shane Mosley.
John Shallman, campaign strategist for de León, said the fundraisers are successful and help push an important agenda.
"Senator de León is one of the hardest working legislators in Sacramento, and because of that, he is successful, both in passing big bills that benefit the people of California, but also in raising funds to improve our state," Shallman said.
Shallman said de León's efforts help push back against a political fundraising system dominated by billionaires.
"He won't apologize for using the funds to help balance the state's budget, to prevent cuts to education and to keep kids out of gangs," Shallman said.
De León, a Democrat, was not the only lawmaker to use their ballot measure committee for other purposes.
Assemblyman Isadore Hall's "Inspiration and Hope for California" committee raised and spent about $55,000 over the last two years. None of that went to ballot measures. Instead, the Los Angeles Democrat made a $2,500 contribution to Janna Zurita, who defeated an eight-year incumbent to win a seat on the Compton City Council.
Hall also charged the committee $6,800 to attend a seminar at Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government in Cambridge, Mass. In December, Hall touted the seminar to the L.A. Watts Times, saying, "As a lifelong student, I am always looking for ways to improve my leadership and management abilities."
He declined to comment through a spokesman.
Phillip Ung, a policy advocate with California Common Cause, said there are few restrictions on how politicians can spend ballot measure committee money.
"These committees have become political slush funds that they spend on whatever they want while raising the money outside of contribution limits," Ung said.
Candidate-controlled ballot measure committees have existed for decades alongside the candidates' other committees.
One key difference is that there are no limits on how much money politicians can raise for their ballot measure committees. That has created several instances over the years of the committees receiving $1 million or more contributions from individual sources.
The maximum individual contribution to a legislative candidate is $4,100.
The state's ethics watchdog agency has moved to clamp down on politicians' use of the committees. In January 2009, the Fair Political Practices Commission voted to require that funds raised for ballot-measure campaigns be spent on particular propositions. Commissioners stopped short of prohibiting spending on measures before they qualified for the ballot.
The changes were spurred by high-profile examples of questionable spending.
Former Senate President Pro Tempore Don Perata, D-Oakland, five years ago transferred $1.9 million from his ballot measure committee to another committee he established to hire lawyers to fight a protracted federal corruption probe.
Last year, the FPPC fined former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger $30,000 after a ballot measure committee he formed spent more than $1 million on issues unrelated to initiatives. Schwarzenegger's "California Dream Team" used ballot funds to pay for television advertising amid heated state budget negotiations, commissioners concluded.
The FPPC's tightened regulations require that ballot measure committees be identified as such and list the names of the politicians controlling them. They don't restrict politicians from spending large sums of money on general political activities that could be argued have little to do with a specific ballot measure.
"There are legitimate concerns from the FPPC on this, but obviously the legislature doesn't want restrictions on how they can spend money so they will kill almost any bill that attempts to cut or control these issues," Ung said of further attempts to rein in the spending.
Many Democratic lawmakers with ballot-measure funds contributed last year to Gov. Jerry Brown's successful Proposition 30 tax hike and against the unsuccessful Proposition 32, which sought to curtail the political clout of unions. The $35,400 from de León's ballot fund that went to identifiable ballot measures went to promote Proposition 30 and defeat Proposition 32.
Assembly Speaker John Pérez, D-Los Angeles, gave more than half of the $377,846 he spent from his "Building California's Future" directly toward those causes.
"There are issues that impact the state and that affect policy that are on the ballot and that are bigger than the speaker as an individual assembly member so he wants to get involved and that's in particular why he made significant contributions to pass Prop. 30 and defeat Prop. 32," said Doug Herman, Pérez's political strategist.
Given the large sums of money politicians spent on consulting and campaign services — without identifying a specific measure — Herman said the standard should be whether the committee produces any meaningful activity, such as giving to an identifiable campaign.
Kim Alexander, founder of the California Voter Foundation, said it's worth questioning the copious amounts of fundraising, particularly in cases where ballot measure committees only end up spending a fraction of their money on initiatives.
"If the committee is taking in $200,000 and only $20,000 of it can be traced to supporting a particular initiative, what was the purpose of raising the other $180,000?" said Alexander, whose organization works to enhance the public's access to information about proposition donors.
"Was it simply to feed the fundraising industry, the treasurer industry, the political consultant industry?" she said. "Or was it just to be able to go to all these fun events catered by great cooks?"
De León's fundraisers at high-profile boxing matches stretch back at least four years. In September 2009, more than a dozen guests attended the then-assemblyman's $5,000-a-person trip to the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino to watch Márquez fight Floyd Mayweather, Jr. Spending for the event appeared in a campaign finance report from 2011-12.
Over the last two years, the records show de León spent tens of thousands of dollars on boxing fundraisers, including $26,142, $22,722 and $17,100 payments to StubHub. For a 2011 fundraiser in Las Vegas, de León gave boxing gloves to 21 paying guests, including lobbyists whose firms represent banks, defense contractors, labor unions, telecom companies, big tobacco and Indian casinos.
One attendee said the gloves — purchased for $2,300 total in Los Angeles — were signed by the senator and included a message along the lines of "Keep up the fight."
De León received contributions for his ballot fund from AT&T, Walmart, Blue Shield of California and the California School Employees Association.
Pala Band of Mission Indians, Barona Band of Mission Indians, Viejas Tribal Government and San Diego-based Sempra Energy were also among the contributors.
Doug Kline, director of corporate communications at Sempra, said the company makes political contributions to candidates and issues that are generally in alignment with its point of view.
In a prepared statement, Kline said his company was aware of committees using a range of methods to raise funds for a variety of political initiatives and issues.
"We donate to issues of interest with the expectation that the funds are going to be used for the stated purpose," he said.


text: As im writing this im currently watching the Magic @ Heat game.The Magic are down by 14 going into the second quarter. One of the floor reporters get some quick comments from Stan Van and asks why the Magic are down and what they need to do to get back into the game, "We just need to try more. Were showing no effort, no intensity, and a lack of focus. Were getting our asses kicked." How I wish we had a Van Gundy style coach for the Raps so someone could light a fire under their collective asses. That most likely would have translated into something like this if that were Raptors and Magic and it were Triano's comments, "I thought the effort and intensity were there. We just need to start knocking down shots and being more consistent." .........Soft. I blame Colangelo for signing this douche after he got all gitty when we had a 7 meaningless game win streak at the end of last season. Now were probally stuck with him because I doubt they want to have another ex-coach on the payroll. Im sick of rookie head coaches, bring on Lawrence Frank who has proven experience. Hell sign Jeff Van Gundy, I know it looks like he never sleeps but tell me you wouldn't love seeing Jay Triano do this http://fourhorsementattoo.com/wp-con.../van-gundy.jpg. So if the Raps continue playing like this, will the management suck it up and pay him off??? Im not so sure.

The heavens finally have graced Durango with rain, always a welcome event in the Southwest. But when youre a dog trainer, thunder and lightning mean the phone is going to start ringing off the hook with desperate dog owners looking for help with their thunder-phobic dogs.
Nine years ago, I began my own personal fight against thunder phobia with my dog Kylie, then just 6 months old. Her first experience with a thunderclap started with a bang that sent her running into a wall in her panic. I had known that Kylie was sensitive to loud sounds, but this was the first time I had seen her sensitivity rise to the level of intense fear.
There are three categories of factors that contribute to thunder phobia: exposure to loud thunder during a puppys fear periods (6 to 16 weeks and often for shorter, more random periods before the age of 1); single-event traumatic imprinting (a single, dramatic exposure to thunder); and repeated exposure to thunder while showing growing concern for the noise and no intervention is attempted.
Symptoms of thunder phobia include panting, shivering, hiding, urinating, defecating and destructive behaviors.
Luckily, there are things you can do to help your dog cope with this fear. Treatment falls within three broad categories:
Changes to the dogs environment
Create a safe haven by using an interior closet with a blanket-covered crate. This offers your dog a place to go where the sound is muffled.
Mask the noise with a nursery sound machine, a noisy fan or by playing soothing music.
Invest in a Thunder Shirt for your dog. This simple wrap has proven to soothe noise phobias in dogs. You can investigate the Thunder Shirt more thoroughly at www.thundershirt.com.
Your input
Obviously, being yelled at when you are scared does nothing to help with the fear. Yet we, as humans, fall back on that natural reaction to a dogs sudden change in behavior with remarkable consistency. Remain calm.
Start working with your dogs fear before the next thunderstorm by using a CD of thunder sounds in a controlled environment. Play the CD at low volume as you hold a puppy party by playing and giving treats. Gradually, you should be able to raise the volume while your dogs perception of the sound goes from panic to lets start the party.
Dietary supplements and medications
Research at Tufts University has found that melatonin, a hormone produced naturally in the dogs body, can be very helpful. You can check on dosage levels at http://webcanine.com/2007/melatonin-for-stress.
ProQuiet, an l-tryptophan supplement, also can reduce anxiety in dogs and has been shown to be safe.
There has been a boom in research into canine behavior issues over the last decade, and your veterinarian can help you decide if the addition of an azapirone, benzodiazepine or SSRI is appropriate in your dogs situation.
Having caught Kylies phobia early, I was able to work with her to help her cope with her fears. If your dog is suffering from thunder phobia, I hope these tips help you find the sunshine after the storm, too.

Hi, I'm running valid licensed ZASS 9.0.083 on two computers, one Windows 7 (official build 7600) and one Windows XP SP3. Both installations are fully updated using Windows Update. The ZASS installation on Windows 7 was a clean install (never had any ZA product on that machine before), the installation on Windows XP was an upgrade from the latest ZASS 8 version (which worked fine).
I have set ZA to update AV every hour on both machines, but nothing happens for days! If I update manually by clicking the "Update Now" button the update is downloaded and updated fine (although it takes a long time, maybe 5 minutes). Changing back to the default "Update every 3 hours" does not make it update automatically.
Any idea on how to solve the problem on these two very different computers with the same problem? Anyone else seeing this problem?

Wildfire & Mudslide Information
Permanent Load Shifting
Cool Savings with Permanent Load Shifting
By shifting more of your energy use to off-peak hours, you not only run your business more efficiently, you stand to see savings on your bill. Find out if you're eligible and learn more about incentives here, then call your SCE Account Manager to get started.
Thermal Energy Storage
Thermal Energy Storage (TES) is the process of redistributing energy use for cooling from on-peak hours when demand and rates are highest to off-peak hours, when rates are lower. When you invest in a Thermal Energy Storage system for your business, you'll be able to produce your cooling energy in the evenings, and deploy it during high-demand afternoon hours, so you can operate during peak periods while minimizing your peak energy costs.
Find out more about the Program Guidelines, or learn more in the fact sheet.
If you qualify, you may be eligible for reimbursements of up to $875 per kilowatt for shifting your cooling load and reducing grid stress and demand. Incentives are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis, based on availability of funds. Your total reimbursement may be calculated up to 50% of your total Thermal Energy Storage system equipment and installation costs (up to $1.5 million), are subject to verification of cooling load shift, and are paid in your choice of one or two installments:
- Two-Installment Option: If you select this option, may be eligible to receive 25% of the cost of your feasibility study up front (up to $10,000) upon feasibility study and pre-installation inspection review and approval. You may be eligible for the remaining 75% of upfront and project costs after installation, post-installation inspection, and approval.
- Single-Installment Option: If you select this option, you may be eligible for a single installment and receive up to 100% of the cost of your feasibility study and project costs after installation, post-installation inspection, and approval.
The Math: Calculating Incentives
How much incentive you qualify for is determined by your designed and verified cooling load shift during the feasibility study review and post-installation inspection. We'll verify your cooling load shift and convert it from tonnage to kilowatts. This calculation will apply to both full and partial storage systems. Conversions vary: 0.7 kilowatts per ton are applied to water cooling chillers, and 1.2 kilowatts per ton apply to air cooling chillers. Your total incentive calculation is the lesser of your calculated cooling load shift, up to 50% of verified total project cost.

by Tim Lynch, PoliceMisconduct
From the Dallas Observer:
He stood, encircled by reporters. After some thank yous, he lit the fuse: "I want to say that me and my lawyer, Cheryl Wattley, we'll make a formal complaint against Thomas D'Amore for prosecutorial misconduct," Miles said, referring to the lawyer who prosecuted him. "My life was taken because of malicious acts by a prosecutor. I can't just let that go by."
As he spoke, several of the 33 innocent men freed in recent years by Dallas County watched from the gallery, dressed as if for mass. At least seven of their cases had contained "official misconduct," mostly exculpatory evidence that wasn't disclosed to defense lawyers, according to Michigan and Northwestern University's National Registry of Exonerations. Misconduct contributes to 42 percent of exoneration cases nationally, those researchers say.
It's a problem that's had a particularly profound effect in Texas. In 91 criminal cases between 2004 and 2008, Texas courts found that prosecutors withheld evidence, made improper arguments or committed other misconduct, according to a report by Veritas Initiative, part of a national Prosecutorial Oversight coalition. But only one prosecutor was disciplined in that time period by the State Bar of Texas. (His license was suspended for two years.)
As Miles and his fellow exonerees know well, prosecutors are virtually immune from accountability. They're protected from civil action, and the statute of limitations for prosecuting them generally runs out before a prisoner even goes free. Miles could file a grievance with the State Bar, the organization charged with attorney discipline. But there's a statute of limitations on those complaints, too….
"It's a prosecutor's responsibility to never fabricate evidence or manipulate witnesses or take advantage of victims," Siegler told reporters in dismissing [another] case, according to Texas Monthly. "And unfortunately, what happened in this case is all of those things."

LAS VEGAS, July 24 (UPI) -- Las Vegas police said they arrested a man accused of breaking into a neighbor's home and attacking him with a guitar and a toilet bowl lid.
Police said Ronald Hetzel, 41, allegedly broke into a neighbor's home in the Southern Highlands neighborhood by opening a window and struck the owner over the head with a wooden guitar and a porcelain toilet bowl lid during a confrontation, the Las Vegas Sun reported Tuesday.
Investigators said Hetzel, who was displaying "symptoms of excited delirium," also repeatedly tried to strangle the homeowner.
Police responded to a report of a man throwing objects out of the home and arrived to find Hetzel sitting on the curb. They said the suspect was not wearing a shirt and was "very hostile" toward an officer.
Hetzel, who attempted to flee but was tracked down and caught by a K9 officer, was arrested and charged with home invasion, burglary, attempted murder, battery with a deadly weapon and battery with substantial harm.
The homeowner was treated for his injuries at St. Rose Domincan Hospital's Siena campus.

The number of vehicles on the world's roads is expected to double to around 2.5 billion by 20501. But rather than increase congestion, pollution, collisions and commuter angst as you'd expect, just the opposite may come to pass.
How could there be more vehicles but less traffic in the future? Governments certainly aren't pouring money–and concrete–into building more roads. Today, technology is revolutionizing just about everything imaginable about how we get from point A to point B.
Armed with data from sensors in roads and vehicles, cities are already using predictive analytics to anticipate and reduce traffic congestion. Drivers use social media to detect and avoid gridlock. City planners analyze data to pinpoint where new bus routes are most needed. Even the way we park is being reinvented.
Cities worldwide face rapid growth and mounting transportation challenges. But that growth also provides opportunities to build intelligent transportation systems that will fundamentally improve how cities manage and citizens use their transportation networks.
The promise of the 'connected car'
Data is the fuel that drives intelligent transportation systems–and today traffic-related data pours in from everywhere: GPS trackers, social media posts, mobile phones and cameras located in cars and on the street. Cities capture and analyze data from all these sources as well as thousands of sensors embedded in roads and vehicles to monitor and manage traffic in real time.
The Dutch city of Eindhoven, for instance, worked with IBM to pilot a traffic management solution that collects and merges braking, acceleration and location data from in-vehicle sensors with traffic data gathered from the road.
Using cloud technology and analytics, the disparate data from thousands of sensors enabled officials to respond to dangerous road conditions, accidents or growing traffic density in near real-time. The solution also alerts drivers of traffic incidents through smartphones and built-in navigation devices, allowing them to find alternate routes.
As automakers continue to embed advanced sensors in vehicles, "connected cars" may in fact become essential to solving the world's traffic problems. IBM is helping Volkswagen advance this concept in Wolfsburg, Germany, where geospatial data generated by vehicles helps the town see traffic density and patterns in real time and make immediate, informed decisions. VW's connected car also offers personalized guidance to drivers, such as ideal departure time and the best route to avoid traffic jams.
And following right behind the connected car? The Internet of Cars, of course–and the self-driving car, which will feature ever-more advanced technologies that will enhance traffic management and the driving experience.
Tweets and apps steer transportation decisions
What if a status update on a social media site could be used to help authorities determine whether to reroute a city bus and avoid a traffic snarl for riders? People connected to Twitter, Facebook and other social networks often tweet or post about accidents, congestion, detours and just about any other traffic matter–providing invaluable real-time data for traffic management.
The city of Toulouse, France deployed a solution that collects and analyzes its citizens' social media comments about city planning and traffic issues so authorities can be more responsive to pressing needs. As a result, Toulouse has accelerated its average response time to road-maintenance issues by 93 percent, from 15 days to just one day.
Mobile technology also gives cities a powerful tool to discover and quickly resolve traffic issues and to enhance route planning and traffic navigation for citizens and visitors.
IBM's Access My City solution helps people find accessible transportation and plan a public transit or walking route. The solution brings together real-time transit data, geo-location and mapping technologies and publicly available accessibility information and delivers it to mobile devices.
Piloted in New York City, Access My City removes barriers to urban transit for senior citizens, families with small children, people with disabilities and anyone else who needs to locate ramps, elevators and escalators.
Access My City is a prime example of how technology helps aggregate real-time data to enhance everything from an intermodal commute to a stroll around town.
The economic costs of congestion
Making the daily commute more bearable is a big deal. But intelligent transportation technologies provide cities an opportunity to address long-range policy goals as well. By monitoring traffic performance and patterns over time, cities can make significant progress in cutting congestion, emissions and noise; determine where to place buses and build mass transit stations to ensure they operate at full capacity; and improve emergency vehicle response times.
Congestion is costly on so many fronts. Commuters waste precious time and burn away money in fuel costs, traffic accidents are more likely, and cities become less desirable to businesses and new residents.
Cities that invest in smarter transportation systems can see a clear return on their investment not only in reduced transport network and infrastructure costs, but enhanced business and economic growth. For instance, reducing congestion by 25 percent equals $185 billion in savings in the United States and can increase retail sales by six percent2.
Of course, the ultimate ROI for intelligent transportation solutions is a more livable city and better quality of life for all its citizens. Less gridlock, cleaner air, reliable mass transit: that's the kind of place where people want to live, work and shop—and it's attainable for any city with today's technologies.

Old-Thinker News | October 2, 2012
By Daniel Taylor
Many people are convinced that we are facing the end of the world as we know it. Current trends are indicating that we are indeed facing an extremely turbulent time ahead. The world is on the edge of all out war in an age of advanced technology available to psychopathic elites. Genetically modified foods are ravaging the genetic code of humanity while scientists promulgate plans to sterilize mankind. Meanwhile the global economy is on the verge of total collapse.
The mainstream media will never give you a comprehensive analysis of the globe and provide a true understanding of the wide view of society and history. Even less likely is the possibility that it will give you any kind of solution to our wide-ranging problems. Before continuing, ask yourself this question: What happens when life goes on after a total collapse of economy, society and government? What will inspire us to rebuild? Will humanity follow the elite's model for the future, or break the chains?
To answer this question I believe that we need to look at the current state of affairs in our society. Mankind, at this stage in our history, has reached a point in which the many roles that our ancestors took upon themselves are now delegated to others. Our ancestors hunted for their food; We buy it prepackaged at Wal-Mart. Our ancestors built their homes; Now someone else builds them for us. In short, the raw reality of survival and the fragility of life has been lost on the majority of modern mankind. These luxuries are by no means a bad thing, but to take them for granted and fall into a state of complacency is not healthy.
Because of the milk and honey passed down to us from our ancestors, we have fallen into a state of complacency, and we all tend to ignore or at the very least downplay serious threats to our way of life. In this environment, predatory humans – divorced from natural law – have placed themselves in positions of power and treat the vast majority of humanity as lab rats in a cage.
In America we have enjoyed a quality of life unparalleled around the globe; a fact hated by globalist powers bent on tearing it down. A new global system is coming in its place. As globalist architect Zbigniew Brzezinski stated, "…further progress will require greater American sacrifices. More intensive efforts to shape a new world monetary structure will have to be undertaken, with some consequent risk to the present relatively favorable American position."
Indeed, America is declining on multiple levels. Unemployment in the United States has been above 8% for more than 40 months, a statistic not seen since the Great Depression. Health-wise we are some of the most sickly people in the world, despite our claims to advanced medicine and technology. Obesity rates could be 60% in 13 states by 2030, according to a recent report released by Trust for America's Health. Reading scores on SAT's fell nation-wide this year to a record forty year low. A recent study found that 70% of female rats died prematurely after being fed a steady diet of GMO corn. This means that we could face a holocaust in the next generation of humanity, as DNA changes from consuming GMO food are passed down to the next generation.
The elite's destructive actions are pushing the globe toward an extremely unstable future. In America we face what could be a Roman style collapse. Historical hindsight shows us that we are in a strikingly similar position as ancient Rome just before its fall. As Rome did, we have rampant illegal immigration, a devalued currency, expansive military operations overseas, and internal political upheaval potentially leading to civil war. Europe is facing a similar collapse designed to further centralize power into a European federation.
In the event that the globe does experience a systemic meltdown, our civilization will be tested in a way it has not been in recent memory. What will happen after the fact? Will we have any kind of foundation to build on?
Finding a Foundation for the Future
"People often ask me when the next step in evolution – the step to something beyond man – will happen. But on the Christian view, it has happened already. In Christ a new kind of man appeared: and the new kind of life which began in Him is to be put in us." – C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity
Transhumanist leader Ray Kurzweil, among other top technology leaders, attended the Global Future 2045 conference in Russia early this year. Maksim Kalashnikov, a Soviet Union apologist, also attended the conference. He warned of the rise of "easily deceived" "barbarians" who's "…video-game mentality means they could easily start to wreak havoc…" As Svetlana Smetanina reported from the conference, "If the proportion of people like this comes to encompass 50 percent of the Earth's population, then a new "middle ages" are almost guaranteed."
The state of degeneracy of modern day civilization has provided the power structure with a "moral justification" for a planned assault against humanity to eliminate "dead weight", rather than inform and inspire individuals to change. While human nature has remained the same throughout history, this decay is not purely a natural progression. In many cases it is a direct result of tyrannical, conscious efforts on part of the elite to poison the mind, body and spirit of humanity. In the words of Rockefeller's General Education Board in 1906, "We shall not try to make these people or any of their children into philosophers or men of learning or men of science… We shall not search for embryo great artists, painters, musicians, nor lawyers, doctors, preachers, politicians, statesmen, of whom we have ample supply."
Our civilization is made up of individuals, each one of them with free will. Our conscience and morality stand in the way of an iron fist exercising its power through its various branches of control, all of which consist of human beings like you and me. The solution begins with individuals deciding to think for themselves, leading by example, and carrying the fire of humanity and goodness into the future. The world is in desperate need of these people. You are the answer.
God is extending an open hand to all of us. You have the choice to take it or leave it. Humanity does have great potential; providing that we have a firm foundation to build on. Our present-day civilization is built on feet of clay.
"That is the key to history. Terrific energy is expended – civilizations are built up – excellent institutions devised; but each time something goes wrong. Some fatal flaw always brings the selfish and cruel people to the top and it all slides back into misery and ruin. In fact, the machine conks… They are trying to run it on the wrong juice." – C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

Howard could be back after All-Star break
By Todd Zolecki / MLB.com
Could Ryan Howard be back shortly after the All-Star break?
It looks like it. The Phillies announced on Tuesday that Howard will return to Philadelphia on Wednesday for "functional testing on his left Achilles." If Howard passes those tests, he will begin a rehab assignment with Class A Lakewood on Thursday.
Once a position player begins a rehab assignment, he has 20 days before he must be activated unless there is a setback. So if Howard takes the full 20 days, he could be back no later than July 18, six games following the All-Star break.
Howard has been on the disabled list since the season started after undergoing surgery on the Achilles in October, and suffered a setback because of an infection in the heel in February.
Manager Charlie Manuel spoke to Howard on Monday.
"More than likely, the way things look, [he'll be back] after the All-Star break," Manuel said. "He feels real good. He still says that when he runs he's got a little limp. He says, 'I want to play, and I feel like I can play.' He says, 'I don't know if I'll be where you want me to be or not,' but at the same time, he's got to be able to go play and be able to do some things. He feels like he's getting there. He's very positive about where he's at."
For starters, Phils may use bullpen Wednesday
PHILADELPHIA -- Because the Phillies played a doubleheader on Sunday, using both Cole Hamels and Cliff Lee against the Rays, they are expected to use the bullpen to get through Wednesday's game against the Pirates at Citizens Bank Park.
If left-hander Raul Valdes does not pitch on Tuesday, he could start on Wednesday.
The Phillies also could call for help from Triple-A Lehigh Valley to get them through the week, but pitching coach Rich Dubee said that depends how things go on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Schneider to miss three to five weeks
PHILADELPHIA -- Catcher Brian Schneider underwent an MRI on Wednesday that revealed a high ankle sprain. His expected recovery time is three to five weeks.
Schneider was placed on the 15-day disabled list on Monday after spraining the ankle during a collision at the plate on Sunday.

Well, that's what I've come to expect from Cardinals fans. If that was not your intent, sorry.Just forget I said it. Honestly it wasn't meant to be a chest-thumping thing... sorry

For defense Davy, hands down, by a mile, if the man could back flip he'd be in the HOF
1. The Big Red Machine is considered by many, not just Reds fans as the greatest team ever.
2. Ozzie Might have been the Wizard, but Barry Larkin is GOD!
"Ahh, Jesus, I like him very much, but He no help with curveball." - Serrano. "Are you trying to say Jesus Christ can't hit a curveball?" - Harris in Major League (1989)
Hard to compare offensive worth vs defensive worth, even with today's sabremetrics. That being said Concepcion was certainly no slouch defensively, he was a 5 time GG'er. Overall though Ozzie was better, but the difference was not a large as some here would lead you to believe, Ozzie had some extremely bad offensive years early in his career. It was only until he turned 30 that he somehow began to hit the ball with any kind of consistency. Ozzie's BA was somewhere in the .230's before he hit 30.
The Big Red Machine of the 70's had as much if not more exposure nationally than the Cardinals in the 80's.
If you want to make any kind of comparison you could say the Cardinals did not have the star power of a Bench, Rose, or Morgan and therefore did not overshadow Ozzie like the stars of the Reds overshadowed Concepcion.
Seriously, how can you compare exposure of the Reds of the 70's vs. the Cardinals of the 80's? The Reds of the 70's are compared to the greatest teams of all time. The Cardinals of the 80's? Also rans.
Sorry, but Ozzie had the better glove for a longer time than Davey did. Not saying that Davey didn't have some seasons where he would have rivaled Ozzie defensively, just Ozzie had more seasons of better defense.
Also, Larkin was better than both. The whole package defense and offense. He was the one who changed what SS were supposed to be on a team.
"I have noticed even people who claim everything is predestined, and that we can do nothing to change it, look before they cross the road." Stephen Hawking
I'm too young to offer an type of real analysis. Ozzie Smith's rookie card is worth more, tho.
The Wizard.....
However, I would say Larkin was a lot more valuable player.
Both have comparable offensive numbers.
It's bottom of the 9th. 2 outs, runner on third. A sharp ground ball hit deep in the hole between SS and 3rd. Who do you want fielding it?

pwnat, pronounced "poe-nat", is a tool that allows any number of clients behind NAT gateways to communicate with a server behind a separate NAT with no port forwarding and no DMZ setup on any routers in order to directly communicate with each other. The server does not need to know anything about the clients trying to connect, nor does it need to communicate with any other hosts in order to initiate the communication. Simply put, this is a proxy server that works behind a NAT, even when the client is behind a NAT. There is no middle man, no proxy, no third party, no UPnP required, no spoofing, and no DNS tricks. More importantly, the client can then connect to any host or port on any remote host or to a fixed host and port decided by the server.

MLB Players help rebuild Gulf Coast
MLB Players Trust helps fund latest Gulf initiative
NEW ORLEANS -- Before heading to Spring Training, Marlon Anderson, LaTroy Hawkins and Chris Capuano returned to the Gulf Coast with a $1 million donation from the Major League Baseball Players Trust to help rebuild homes and lives in the hurricane-devastated region.
The gift to the Volunteers of America Rental Housing Development Fund on Monday was the largest individual financial contribution ever made by the players' collective charity.
This contribution will be used to develop affordable rental housing in the Gulf Coast region. Along with the players, executive director Don Fehr represented the MLBPA at the check presentation while New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin joined the ceremony.
"We haven't forgotten the needs of the people of New Orleans and the Gulf states," said Hawkins, who has made trips to the Gulf region several times in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. "We are committed to help them rebuild their homes and their lives, and we urge others to do the same."
The Gulf Rental Housing Development Fund is an important part of Volunteers of America's "Coming Back Home" initiative, whose goal is to create more than 1,000 affordable housing rental units for working families of New Orleans.
"This generous donation will be used for much-needed housing projects," said Volunteers of America's national president and CEO Charles Gould. "Volunteers of America had a significant presence in the Gulf region long before Hurricane Katrina hit. Now our assistance is needed here more than ever, with so many people relying on us for a broad range of services, including affordable housing."
Capuano recalled watching the devastation unfold on television news in 2005 and listening to pleas for help from Brewers teammate Ben Sheets, a Louisiana native. He said the plight of families in New Orleans resonated with players.
"We put funds together to help with the initial relief effort but, now, a year and a half later, you realize that so much more needs to be done in terms of rebuilding the infrastructure," Capuano said. "Tens of thousands of people are still homeless or living in emergency housing trailers. Families are separated.
"Housing seems to be one of the major issues, a basic need, so we as players wanted to make a difference and put our money where it would be needed most. We also wanted to draw some national attention to the issue to show that there's still a lot that needs to be done."
With 111 years of experience in helping people in need, Volunteers of America is one of the nation's largest nonprofit providers of quality housing for low- and moderate-income individuals and families. VOA is building high-quality, cost-effective rental apartments in New Orleans to replace those lost in the storms of 2005, enabling individuals and families to return to security and stability.
"Our partnership with Volunteers of America has really worked out well the past several years," Capuano said. "VOA has expertise in providing services, especially housing, so it seemed like a natural fit. We're confident that with their experience and expertise, the money will be put to good use and invested well."
