I just re read your other thread where you said stevens was 35cpm "which is low but i never had a trucking job before so what do i know". In this thread you stated "i understand the profession im getting into"
sorry, but you dont. NONE of us did before we did it. This is a lifestyle you cannot even imagine until you do it.
then you said they offered $4500 tuition reimbursement, $2500 sign on bonus and a guarantee of $50,000 the first year. that sounded crazy to me because 1... no company will guarantee miles or pay to a newbie 2. the sign on for someone that might wreck a truck? i thought companies offered sign ons to experienced drivers.
to make $50,000 per year, you must average 2745 miles per week to gross roughly $960. that allows no home time. you stated you have been a long time reader, so you must know those numbers are high for any new driver, right?
you also stated they are a great company and very concerned about safety, but lied to you about home time. now you are saying they lied about pay.
can you see why from our reading this it looks like you didnt research enough or misunderstood or something?
i really want the best for you and hope.it all works out.
Drivers are often paid by the mile and it's given in cents per mile, or cpm.
I just scoured the stevens transport site and in no less than 6 pages it says "UP TO $50,000 your first year"
this is not a guarantee in any way.
nowhere could i find a sign on or tuition reumbursement info.
they would advertise a sign on bonus
I wholeheartedly agree with Simon, Old School, and Rainy. That certainly was a classic blunder. You are in for a very tough road ahead because your expectations of life in this industry are way off, you really don't seem to understand the information you're being given, and you definitely think you know more than you do.
Not only that, but why do people make these major career-changing decisions without consulting us? You spent a month here with us and then immediately made a dumb move and quit your first company right off the bat.
Within a week you're going to find 10 concerns about your new company. Within a month you're going to find 25 things about trucking you don't like.
The only advice I have at this point is stick with Total Transportation for one full year no matter what. Of course you've certainly read that 50 times already if you've been reading the information on this website and it didn't do any good but there's no sense in telling you anything else if you're just going to quit your job in a week anyhow.
Tough road ahead for you I'm afraid. I don't know anything about the company you're with but I do know that most of the best companies out there won't hire a driver that quit another company right away because they're almost certainly going to do it again. And you almost certainly will. The fact that they took you under these circumstances is interesting.
Stay where you're at for one full year. [banging my head against the wall]
Episode 4: Why Stick With Your First Company One Full Year?
Strive to become a top tier driver [banging my head against the wall]
What It Takes To Be A Top Tier Driver
Don't listen to the terminal rats [banging my head against the wall]
Episode 10: Terminal Rats Are Derailing Trucking Careers
I hope people will listen to the advice in those links above and don't make this classic blunder.
A facility where trucking companies operate out of, or their "home base" if you will. A lot of major companies have multiple terminals around the country which usually consist of the main office building, a drop lot for trailers, and sometimes a repair shop and wash facilities.
Aram, As the others have suggested you really blundered here. Stevens is well known as one of the top companies when it comes to training. We've all had to watch videos and take tests to prove comprehension of the topic. Like Old School, I too review videos and take quizzes. What exactly did you expect? If you are unwilling to learn all you can in this phase of your career you have a rather rude awakening waiting in the future.
Take my advice on one aspect of your downfall here; focus on communication, especially listening skills. It's one of the most important parts of this job and can adversely affect so many outcomes; efficiency, professional relationships, on-time performance and of course above all else safety.
Don't listen to respond, listen to fully understand.
Jesus, where in my post did I state that because I have a cdl that I'm entitled to anything? Or that I want things handed to me on a silver platter? Because I didn't wanna sign with Steven's I'm on a roller coaster downfall? And I'm gonna quit my job in a week? I've held jobs that I didn't like for 3+ years simply to pay Bill's and provide for my family. Now all of a sudden you all know me inside out because I didn't wanna sign with one company that I felt wasn't right for me? And because I didn't feel they were right for me, now I know everything about the industry and I know more than ya'll? Geez thanks ya'll. I don't mind doing tests online and watching videos to an extent, but call me crazy, but I would much rather be learning how to trip plan, how to manage my time and learn to read what's ahead of me. Each job I've had for the past 10 years, I've stayed for at least 1 year because I've always been told if you change jobs it means you can't persevere. That orientation between me and Steven's I considered a interview for me and them. Because I felt they weren't right for me I'm a know it all brat that wants things handed to him? I thought you guys always adviced "pick a forever company." And yall making it sound like recruiters tell the truth and nothing but the truth, and that ya'll have never been lied to. I'm posting here to get advice and pick yalls brain not to be attacked and made to feel like an idiot that will quit his job in a week. I've got 2 parents that are disabled and live with me. I quit my job of 7 years as a lumper to get into trucking. I saved money for over 3 years in order to pay Bill's and tend to their needs these months that I'd be in CDL school and unemployed looking for a job. I've invested everything I have into this CDL. So yall really think I'm just gonna quit when I haven't even got a in a truck and driven a real paid mileage yet? I left Steven's before I got in the truck, because if I did get in the truck I would've roughed it out for 6 months to a year even if it wasn't to my liking. So what's wrong with me leaving Steven's before I was stuck? But anyway it looks like yall have made up yalls mind about me and there's no changing that. So good luck to you guys and wish yall all the best. ✌
A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:
Oh and one more thing. I'm not blindly heading to total, as I stated, a good friend of mine has been driving for them for 7 to 8 months and he loves it. He filled me in on everything about them and he was a big part of my decision to switch. Not to mention they start you out at .40cpm and after 90 days you go to .43 cpm with a realistic mileage of 2600 to 3000 weekly depending on how hard you run. So you may not know all the facts before you all criticize and try to make a person feel like an idiot that will never succeed in this business based off of 1 decision early on. Have nice day ya'll.
Drivers are often paid by the mile and it's given in cents per mile, or cpm.
First you say:
Jesus, where in my post did I state that because I have a cdl that I'm entitled to anything?
Then you say:
That orientation between me and Steven's I considered a interview for me and them
You're interviewing them??? They're a massively successful company with brand new rigs blanketing the nation hauling goods for some of the largest corporations on the planet. You're fresh out of school and you've never driven a big rig alone for one single mile or made one dollar in this industry for yourself or for anyone else. Yet somehow you thought you were interviewing them?
Wonderful. Yes, you sound like you feel entitled.
The recruiting process was supposed to be the process you use to determine which company is right for you. You find out what you need to know about the various companies and then you choose the one you feel suits you best. Once you show up it's your opportunity to prove yourself to them. But obviously you think they have something to prove to you. Well you go ahead and keep thinking that and see where it gets you. Tons of people make that mistake all the time. You won't even be the only one in your class to do it. Happens all the time at every major carrier. It's one of the main reasons why 25% of the people who attend these programs wind up on a bus home the first week.
I thought you guys always advised "pick a forever company."
We've never once advised that. We say to stick with your first company for one full year. I told you, you don't pay attention very well to what you're being told.
And yall making it sound like recruiters tell the truth and nothing but the truth, and that ya'll have never been lied to.
None of us have ever said that nor have we implied that.
So yall really think I'm just gonna quit when I haven't even got a in a truck and driven a real paid mileage yet?
You literally just described exactly what you just did.
Listen, best of luck to ya. I see no indication that you've ever listened to us or learned the first thing from us but I'm sure many others have during the course of this conversation so we're happy with that. Can't teach em all I guess.
A CDL is required to drive any of the following vehicles:
When a violation by either a driver or company is confirmed, an out-of-service order removes either the driver or the vehicle from the roadway until the violation is corrected.
So I'm quitting trucking and packing it up and going home? Then what am I doing at total? I really don't care how big of a company they are, what's wrong with gathering info on them first hand and making a decision that's best for me? Dude you're just trying to find things to criticize I have no idea what your problem is.
Aram...calm down for goodness sake! Nobody here is attacking you personally.
Simply put, and in my judgement, you have made a pretty classic rookie error. Therefore, my advice was, and is, based upon trying to help you see that and to help you not to make the same error again. I can't speak directly for the other much wiser souls than me on here...but I do believe that this is their intention also.
You have stumbled across a true gem of a website here, if you only choose to use it wisely. Sometimes, 'the truth' is hard to accept...but facts remain facts...and like it or not, you will get 'the truth' here.
From your last post, you obviously have a work ethic and personal standards. The advice here is only trying to get you to use your ethics and standards wisely.
Let's look at what you said...
. I don't mind doing tests online and watching videos to an extent, but call me crazy, but I would much rather be learning how to trip plan, how to manage my time and learn to read what's ahead of me.
Don't you think some of these videos may have covered some of that very information?
Do you believe that any company will allow you to study only what you consider to be relevant?
I thought you guys always adviced "pick a forever company." And yall making it sound like recruiters tell the truth and nothing but the truth, and that ya'll have never been lied to.
Again, due diligence on your part would have shown that the advice to 'pick a forever company' is nearly always accompanied by advice, in the strongest of terms, that if the first company does not end up being all that you dreamed it would be, then stay put and get at least a years worth of experience before jumping ship!
There are also many many threads advising rookies and newbies to take recruiter promises with a pinch of salt, talk to actual drivers....research, research, research! Recruiters are notorious for painting rosy pictures....in all industries, including the military. Do they tell you the nitty gritty tough stuff....hell no! Again; the truth behind the glamour can be found by that one word...research!
So yall really think I'm just gonna quit when I haven't even got a in a truck and driven a real paid mileage yet? I left Steven's before I got in the truck, because if I did get in the truck I would've roughed it out for 6 months
This actually made me chuckle....you asked and answered your own question in two sentences!!!
So, yes...you did exactly what you asked us if we thought you would do....you quit before driving a single mile!! lol
You gotta admit...that's actually quite funny?
Look....everybody here wants to see you succeed. But please, please don't make the mistake of asking questions, if you only want pat answers that fit your inexperienced view of how things should be. I came to this website with several years of European truck driving experience, but asked these guys loads of questions about how to deal with being a rookie in this great country. I was and am willing to take their advice for what it is...years and years of combined wisdom distilled into a few lines on a page....That, in my opinion, is priceless!
As stated before and by the other folks... I and they only wish you the very best. But please do not make what is an incredibly tough lifestyle choice even more difficult by making avoidable errors of judgement and then being outraged when folks try to steer you in the right direction.
When a violation by either a driver or company is confirmed, an out-of-service order removes either the driver or the vehicle from the roadway until the violation is corrected.
Brett beat me to the punch!!

Being safe and remaining healthy is ending up being harder and harder nowadays. It is practically coming to be difficult to establish if something is secure or not. This is particularly real when it involves just what you are consuming.
Go Whole and Organic
A wellness mantra that's becoming well-liked lately is to go for whole foods. It is recommended that when buying meat, pick the unrefined variety that have no ingredients or preservatives. This is an audio advice. Simply considering that you chose to go for the unrefined does not mean you are cost-free from any sort of risk. Most livestock pets today are tied with bodily hormones and prescription antibiotics to stop illness and quicken the development which enhance the earnings of livestock raisers. Risking seeming like a hippie, my assistance is to hunt for vendors that offer meat from organically-raised animals.
Drink Great deals of Water, Safe Water
Drinking great deals of water is an easy yet a quite efficient method to improve your health. If you're really feeling weary or sluggish, try drinking water.
Those who are dehydrated normally experience psychological and bodily fatigue. So just how much water should you drink? As long as you need. The 8 glasses a day rule is bogus considering that not everybody has the very same activity level. Those who are applying additional energy require additional water. Simply do not consume water to point that it comes to be awkward and you will certainly be fine.
In order to make certain that you risk-free, have it examined frequently and set up a water filtration if needed. Vattenreningsteknik does not just guarantee that your water is safe however could also improve the preference to make it also much easier to drink.

Fund this right meow: Night In The Woods
October 23, 2013 2:22 PM | John Polson
Aquaria dev Alec Holowka and Late Night Work Club animator Scott Benson are working on a gorgeous 2D anthropomorphic adventure called Night In The Woods and have turned to Kickstarter for help.
Yes, I just wrote about another animal-based exploration game, but where Secrets of Raetikon uses flight to traverse an ancient wilderness, Night In The Woods offers platforming across a rich, modern, and populated town (and a little bit of wilderness). Alec Holowka told me that they wanted the platforming "to feel very satisfying, unlike traditional point and click adventures, so it would feel fun and engaging to move around and explore."
The playable character is going through a bit of a rough patch, having dropped out of school and returned home to a place that doesn't really feel like home anymore. She is also "undergoing some sudden and unexplained changes, giving her mysterious [paranormal] abilities that grant her access to a side of town she never knew existed," the campaign teases. "The world is changing, things are ending, and the future is uncertain."
Night In The Woods' future is in your hands, with a $15 pledge netting a Windows or Mac version way down the line in January 2015. Any pledge less than that earns you a 10-second up or down hug, which according to the animator, Scott, "an up hug is where our arms are on bottom, lifting. A down hug is when our arms are on top, snuggling." These hugs are redeemable a year earlier.

Game Audio Theory: Ducking
January 29, 2009 Page 1 of 3
['Ducking', or lowering the audioscape volume, can create greater engagement for listeners, and Day 1's Quarles explains how it's done in this fascinating game audio feature.]
When watching a big action scene in an adrenaline-fueled summer blockbuster, a viewer is bombarded with lights, quick camera cuts, explosion sounds, a pulse-rattling score, and a hero that often mutters a snarky one-liner before sending the primary antagonist into the depths from whence he/she/it came.
As someone in the audio field watches the scene, they automatically peel the sequence apart layer by layer. You have the musical score, the hundreds of sound effects playing at once, the dialogue track, and on top of all that, you have a gigantic mix that must be handled elegantly and intelligently so the viewer understands what is happening onscreen and does not go deaf in the process.
There are multiple techniques in a post-production environment that are often used in tandem when pushing towards the final mix. Methods such as side-chain compression and notch EQ play very important roles in film and television, but they are a linear/time-locked medium.
Since the video game medium is interactive in nature, you cannot always predict where a player will go and thus, how a sound will be played (and heard) in the game world. Couple these issues with real-time effects being utilized (reverb, distance-based echo, low-pass, etc.) and it can be very difficult to lock down exactly where the audio spectrum is at any given time.
One important technique that audio professionals oftentimes employ to great effect is one that is called "ducking." Ducking, at base level, is essentially the practice of discreetly lowering the volume of all elements of the audioscape with the exception of the dialogue track. This allows more headroom in the final mix, which will provide important information to the listener that may otherwise be missed due to the complexity of what is going on within the soundtrack at that particular moment.
To understand the validity of a process such as ducking, certain elements must be taken into account beforehand. First and foremost on this list is game pace. Game pacing is a basic game design practice. It is essentially the approach of creating a gameplay experience that has multiple peaks and valleys in the action so the player does not become fatigued and disinterested in the product.
Audio plays a key role in effective game pacing. The reason is simple; the vast majority of elements in a game have an aural representation, and if the gameplay action and visual portion of a product is relentless for too long, the audio spectrum will lose dynamics and quickly become a wall of noise. When this happens, the player will more than likely turn down or mute the audio -- thereby destroying the atmosphere and the pacing that the developers were trying to achieve.
Fortunately, there are a number of ways in which a development team can avoid this problem. In an ideal scenario, the audio team would be involved with all level layout meetings and planning discussions to help with audio pacing through the game.
Much like a great piece of music, a game has a "rhythm." It has establishing motifs and themes, it has gradual builds and rising action, it has massive climaxes, it has denouements, and it has resolves. If it's a constant climax, the player will get exhausted and probably pretty frustrated after awhile.
In addition, as a project gets closer and closer to final lock-down, the more important it becomes that the audio department is aware of any changes that occur at the design level. For example, if a new battle encounter is added to a section of the game where there wasn't one before, the "rhythm" of the level has now changed.
The audio department needs to be able to go through the levels and do a final mix of the entire game from top to bottom after design has completed any major reworks to make sure that the aural integrity remains intact throughout the shipping process.

Wales beat Scotland 26-13 at Murrayfield
Wales opened their defence of the 6 Nations title with a 26-13 victory over Scotland at Murrayfield this afternoon. Warren Gatland's team dominated the match against a poor Scottish side which struggled to make inroads into a watertight Welsh defence.
Tom Shanklin, Alun-Wyn Jones, Leigh Halfpenny and Shane Williams all crossed the line for Wales as the Grand Slam champions showcased their brand of running rugby. Not even Stephen Jones' profligacy with the boot could spoil the day for Wales as Scotland failed to match their opponents in all facets of the game.
Max Evans did score a consolation try for Scotland after coming off the bench, but Wales never really had to get out of second gear to seal the win. England should provide a tougher test next week in Cardiff, but on the evidence of the first weekend of games, Ireland and Wales look like the teams to beat in this year's 6 Nations.

- IMDb Mini Biography By: Danilo Tadeo, Jr.
Ridley began her career with minor roles in the television show, Youngers (2013), Toast of London (2012), Silent Witness (1996), Mr Selfridge (2013) and Casualty (1986). She also appeared in the short film Blue Season (2013), which was entered into the Sci-Fi-London 48-Hour Film Challenge. Ridley played the lead in film three of Lifesaver, an interactive film which was nominated for a BAFTA Award. She has also appeared in the music video for Wiley's song, "Lights On".
In April 2014, Ridley's casting as "Rey", one of the lead characters in Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015), was announced. She was chosen for the film in February 2014. Her choice by director J.J. Abrams was seen as a repeat of George Lucas' move of casting relatively unknown actors for the lead roles in the first Star Wars film in 1977. At the time of her casting she was, according to Rolling Stone, a "total unknown". In October 2015, Ridley appeared at the launch of a set of Star Wars postage stamps issued by the UK postal service Royal Mail, with Ridley's character Rey featuring on a stamp along with the droid BB-8. With international revenues of over $2 billion, The Force Awakens was a major box-office hit and the highest-grossing film of 2015. After an early screening of the film, Brian Viner of the Daily Mail called Ridley the "real star of the show", adding that her performance as Rey should "send her career into orbit". Her performance received critical acclaim, with Richard Roeper describing her portrayal as "a breakout performance".
Ridley voiced the lead role of Taeko in the English dub of the animated film Only Yesterday (1991), released on 1 January 2016 in New York City and scheduled for release throughout the US on 26 February. She will also continue her role as Rey in Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017), which is scheduled to be released in December 2017.

Here's the story of how I increased my pageviews over 900% in one month. I know this sounds far-fetched, but it's totally true! Granted, I'm a fairly new blogger and my traffic was super low to begin with, but actually, that makes it even harder to grow.
Are you a tiny bit surprised that I'm writing about blogging and not about how to clean your house or spend your money? Here's the thing: the blogging community is really supportive and kind and I want to give back a little by sharing how I'm getting some success. Who knows, maybe you'll consider starting a blog!
Proof Positive
So you know I'm not just whistling Dixie, check out these screenshots:
Sad, huh? Only 241 people looked at my sweet little blog in January. I was actually considering whether I should just give up the whole idea. Then, I learned something amazing and look what happened next!
Yep, that's a whopping 922% increase in sessions. To be honest, I'm not really all that sure about the difference between sessions and pageviews, but it's really hard to make a pretty screen showing the pageviews instead of the sessions. I don't want to go down a rabbit hole of learning how to customize reports in Google Analytics instead of writing this blog post. I think we can all agree, a whole bunch more people came to visit in February.
But seriously, when are you going to tell us HOW this miracle occurred?
I'm getting to that…
Back in late January, I saw a Manual Pinning Challenge on one of the Facebooks groups I belong to, The Secret Pinners Club. Kyla, over at dishitoutsocial.com, runs this fantastic group. She had heard the buzz about manual pinning and wanted to do some experimenting. Kyla created a brand new pin for a post, then systematically pinned it to some group boards. Low and behold, that pin went viral! But could this success be replicated? This is how the amazing Manual Pinning Challenge was born.
About 150 people signed up for the challenge and Kyla gave us very detailed instructions on how to use her system. In a nutshell, you create several new pins for a post and pin them methodically to group boards.
I think the results surprised even Kyla! In the first few days, the pin impressions had increased by several thousand for some people. We were simply amazed.
Now, this was a free challenge, but Kyla wrote an ebook, Manual Pinning Simplified, which I also bought. The success I've seen has been worth much more than the meager cost of this book!
In the interest of transparency, if you click on the link and end up buying the book, I will receive a teensy commission. This is a proven system and has worked wonders for me, so I have 100% confidence in recommending it to you!
Pinning Tips
I had been pinning images for each of my posts to my Pinterest Boards, but I really didn't understand how to turn those pins into increased pageviews. Here are several things that will help you do just that:
•Tall images. Tall images are the ones that get noticed and repinned. Images should be at least 730px x 1100px. Many group boards won't even accept pins that don't fit these dimensions.
•Branded images. Your pins should be immediately identifiable with your brand. Use the same colors and fonts in each one. The easiest way to do this is to set up a template to create your pins.
Notice how all of these pins look similar? Be sure to include your website on each pin.
•Multiple pin images. Create at least three, if not more, pins for each post. Use different images and headlines. You never know what is going to appeal to your readers. See how Kyla uses different pins:
•Attention-grabbing headlines. Your titles should be provocative in some way so that the reader will just have to click.
Some manual pinning systems involve spreadsheets and whatnot to track your pins. Ain't nobody got time for that! This system is super easy and you can even use your phone to do it while you stand in line at Target.
You might be wondering if this would take the place of automated schedulers like Boardbooster and Tailwind. The answer is no. I think you'll still want to use these services as well. Pinterest likes to see that you pin throughout the day. Most of us don't have time to mess around on Pinterest all day, so we have to schedule our pins. Manually pinning just seems to boost new pins.
Buy the Dang Book!
Seriously, whether you've been blogging quite awhile, or are just starting, using the system in this book will likely increase your traffic. Yesterday, I made new pins for my free printables and used the manual pinning system. This morning, I had five new subscribers…wait, I just went and checked again and make that 17 new subscribers! That is progress, people! Happy pinning!

I used this for NaNoWriMo but you can definitely use it for any fiction story.
Title(s): Name of Title for story. If you have several ideas, write them all down. If you're unsatisfied with what you have come up with, just keep it there for now or just don't write anything.
Main Character Name and Character Description/Profile: Such as Age, Color of Hair, Height, Fashion, Hairstyle, Personality, What their face looks like (e.g., old for his/her age, freckles, blue eyes, gray eyes, short nose, unibrow...etc.), Occupation, Species (if it's important to make a point about this, otherwise you can let yourself assume most of your characters are human so you don't need to keep mentioning it)
Secondary Character(s) Name and Description/Profile: If you don't know the details yet, just list up some names you want to use and keep it as that.
Chapter 1: Basically write what is going to happen in this chapter. Doesn't have to be complete sentences. This is just for you to look at and reference to.
Chapter 2: Do the same for this chapter. Let me give you an example from a Camp NaNoWriMo I did in 2013.
Chapter 2
Calico goes into the city. Gets lost. Finds a place to keep dry as it has started raining though there is no cloud in the sky and the stars are shining. He is there for quite a while when he feels a scruffy hand on his arm. It is Jonnie the Janitor. Jonnie takes Calico to his house. Calico meets three other kids who have been taken under Jonnie's wing. Calico talks to them. The eldest suggests they go out to find the shards. Calico agrees. Jonnie suggests they visit the gypsy woman because she might know something with her power. (copyrighted 2013 N. J. Folettia).
See? Just nice and simple. Like a memo to yourself.
Chapter 3 and so on: Do the same thing for all the chapters.
Continue on with this until you come to a sort of ending. Just write in short sentences and don't even bother with the details, you'll deal with those when you actually write.

Edge of the Past (Edge, #2)
Just wanted to explain my lack of rating for this book because I don't want any potential readers to get the wrong impression. This book fulfilled part of a team challenge. This is not a genre I typically read and is probably the cleanest book I've read in many, many years. No sex. No cursing. No tattoos. No piercings. (unless you count Emily's pierced ears) Even the drama was of the clean cut variety. It is so clean I'd probably even consider letting my pre-teen daughter to read it. It is strictly a romance. I found it to be well written, well edited, and I did enjoy the story.

Hyundai Ioniq Can't Get Close To Kia Niro
There is a lot to love when it comes to the Hyundai Ioniq. Not only doe sit look great but it is also decked out with new features and tech but even with all those, the Ioniq was not even close to beating the Kia Niro.
According to the latest report, the Kia Niro is beating the Hyundai by 3 to 1 and most people believe that it was because Kia choose to start their green domination with a crossover instead of a sedan and that could be the reason why the Niro is doing so much better than the Ioniq right now.
Kia said that they wanted to offer an eco vehicle that is not a Prius or Leaf rival. That, as well as the timing of it all, help make the Niro the success that it is right now.
The Kia Niro will be coming in with a 139hp engine that will be offering about 52mpg in the city. The vehicle will also come with features like lane departure warning, blind spot monitoring, adaptive cruise control and more.

Rot Blog 5: Brothers in Arms
You may recall, in last week's thrilling installment of Rot Blog, someone defaced the biscuit with a 'bin me!' plea. During the course of this week, whether by the hand of man or some cosmic force of greatness, the satsuma followed suit. Now the two, forever joined together, struggle onwards to their final rotting destiny. The satsuma is now looking decidedly puffy; the biscuit, true to its carbohydrate rich roots, just sits there, ready for all comers. The saga, and the smell, continues.

Say goodbye to Burger King's Tendercrisp chicken sandwich. The menu item called "gross" and "disgusting" by social media users is getting a revamp.
"To be perfectly honest, over time people lost interest in our current chicken sandwich," Alex Macedo, president of Burger King North America, told CNBC. He conceded that social media hatred of the sandwich prompted the burger chain to create a new recipe.
The result, the Crispy Chicken Sandwich, is slightly smaller, with a reformulated marinade and cooking process that makes it crispier and juicier. The seasoned chicken breast is topped with lettuce, tomato and mayo and served on a potato bun.
"You can't take yourself too seriously to admit that your current product is below standard," Macedo said.
To promote the new menu item, Burger King will be releasing several ads that feature blindfolded social media "haters" testing out the new sandwich.
Macedo said that their reaction to the new sandwich was positive.

Elections: What went wrong?
For many years it has been decided, through populace elections, who will lead in a Democratic Republic or similiar method of governance. On the surface it appears to be a sound system of selection. Yet, with history as our teacher, we see the actual application growing more fraudulent with the aging of a government based on elective representation.
Long thought to be superior than any form of totalitarian rule or heriditary regime as we study the examples available are we to trust in any form of electorial guidance or implementation? How can the elected process be revamped to take advantage of todays technology and our long arms of shared citizneship? Do we need to develop any form of Earth wide oversight and what can we learn from history to insure, to the best of our ability, it will not fall to corruption. Come to the UC Earth forum and share your views and inputs as we develop a solid solution to todays methods. Think outside the box. What will be your role in history?
I look forward to sharing this planet with you.

This is a beautifully detailed, laser engraved and precision cut topographical Map of Pawleys Island in Georgetown County, South Carolina with the following interesting stats carved into it:
- "Arrogantly Shabby"
- Namesake: George Pawley owner of the island during the Colonial era.
The breezy island became a refuge from mosquitoes and heat during the summer for wealthy plantation owners.
Interesting factoid: Pawleys Island is a town in Georgetown County, South Carolina, United States, and the Atlantic coast barrier island on which the town sits. The population was 138 at the 2000 census. The post office address also includes an unincorporated area on the mainland adjacent to the island, which includes a commercial district along the Ocean Highway (US Route 17) and a residential area between the highway and the Waccamaw River. The island is on the southern end of The Grand Strand and is one of the oldest resort areas of the US East Coast. The town of Pawleys Island, though, is only on the island. The island lies off the Waccamaw Neck, a long, narrow peninsula between the ocean and the river. The island is connected to the mainland by two bridges, the North Causeway and the South Causeway. At the southern tip of the island is a public beach access area. Nearby is the popular resort, Litchfield Beach.

Launching the 1666 blog
Hello all,
Now that we've gotten the hang of maintaining our 1666 site, I've arbitrarily decided that it's time to move into the next phase — blogging. This is this first of what I hope will be many posts about topics of interest to our community. Marcie is going to write a post about her prairie planting project back by the garden plots to kick us off. Think of the possibilities!
Blog on!

THE story of the extraordinary events of Central Queensland's December/January floods including the historic evacuation of an entire township is unfolding in a Rockhampton court this morning.
The flood inquiry is hearing evidence from people across Central Queensland including local government officials, primary producers and police officers.
Their stories, wedged between the floods of the south east and the cyclone of the far north, have received relatively little attention.
Assisting counsel Peter Callaghan told the inquiry the town of Theodore was struck twice in one year with a flood in March 2010 followed by another in December.
On New Year's Eve 2011 the Dawson River peaked causing an historic evacuation.
To the inquiry's knowldge Theodore was the only township in the state's history to be entirely evacuated, Mr Callaghan said.
In Rockhampton the flood may not have been the highest in the city's history, Mr Callgahan said.
Start of sidebar. Skip to end of sidebar.
End of sidebar. Return to start of sidebar.
"But its impact on the local comunuty and indeed on the whole state was profound."
Mr Callaghan said it was right that evidence surrounding the event be ventilated in an area as close to the events as possible.
Rockhampton Police Inspector David Wiliam Peff has told the inquiry 21st century media played a positive role in the floods.
He said the Queensland Police Service "embraced" Facebook late last year and it served police well through the flood event.
Facebook appeared to be used more than traditional media outlets such as print, he said.
"What we were able to so is put our messages and kill rumours."
Inspector Peff said police had secured a media adviser to handle main stream media and get out information quickly.
He said the strategy had worked extremely well.
He did not meet every media request, but did his best to get the message of the flood out to as large an audience as possible, he said.
"Personally I found working with the media far better than working against the media."
The inquiry continues.

The First State Heritage Park Features Dark Dover
DOVER (Oct. 9, 2012) – This October, one of First State Heritage Park's most popular events, Dark Dover, returns to The Green in downtown Dover. Visitors will witness chilling true stories of gruesome murders and whippings, and encounter characters whose legends have left their imprint on The Green in Dover.
Samuel Chew, and 18th-century judge, and the murdered servant Cooch Turner are just two of the specters who appear during this most unusual tour through the Dover Green. Unusual twists include a retelling of the Poison Candy Murder tale from the point of view of the victim's philandering husband, who attempts to clear his name.
The First State Heritage Park invites the public to experience Dark Dover by moonlight on Fridays, Oct. 12 and 19. The 45-minute program is offered at 7:15 p.m. and again at 8:30 p.m. Admission is $10 per person. Spaces are limited, and pre-registration is required by calling 302-739-9194. Tours will meet at the John Bell House on The Green in Dover.
More information about these programs and about the First State Heritage Park is available at destateparks.com/heritagepark.
The First State Heritage Park at Dover is a partnership of state agencies, under the leadership of Delaware State Parks, working in collaboration with city and county government, nonprofit organizations and the private sector to create Delaware's first urban "park without boundaries" linking historic and cultural sites in the city that has been the seat of state government since 1777.

An analog signal is a constantly fluctuating representation of a circumstance, which can be directly measured such as human voice, video, radio, and others. On the other hand, a digital signal is presented in the form of bits, and at any given time it can take only limited number of values, for instance, in case of a digital computer, there are only two states which are either 1 or 0. An analog signal generates continuous data, while a digital signal consists of discrete data. An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is an electronic integrated circuit that converts analog signal (continuous data) into digital form (discrete data).
Increasing disposable income and technological advancements supplement the analog-to-digital converters market. However, complex design of the ADC hampers this market growth. On the other hand, encouragement in digitization of work processes by government in emerging economies, and continuous competitive pressure to develop high-performance and efficient device is expected to present numerous opportunities for market expansion.
The major companies profiled in the report include Analog Devices, Inc., Microchip Technology Inc., Sony Corporation, Maxim Integrated, Adafruit Industries, Texas Instruments Incorporated, Asahi Kasei Microdevices Co., Renesas Electronics Corporation, National Instruments, and Diligent Inc.
Segment Overview
The global analog-to-digital converters market is segmented based on product type, application, and region. The products covered in this report include ramp ADC, integrating ADC, successive approximation ADC, delta-sigma ADC, and others (pipelined/flash ADC). Based on application, the market is bifurcated into consumer electronics and industrial. Based on region, it is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia‐Pacific, and LAMEA.

Get more information on this report : Request Sample Pages
Growth in Disposable Income
Disposable income, also known as disposable personal income (DPI), is the income that remains after the deduction of the taxes, excluding healthcare deductions, payroll taxes, social welfare charges, and any other deductions. DPI can be saved or spent as per choice of the individual. Globally, an increase in disposable income of individuals has been witnessed. For instance, according to the Office for National Statistics (ONS), Europe reported a record in high household disposable income in 2016. In addition, China's per capita disposable income observed 6.3% rise in the same year. This in turn fuels the growth of global analog-to-digital converters market.
Complexity of ADC Converters
Every ADC device consists of comparators. The specifications of such comparators are vital while designing any type of ADC, and this comparator requirement is high for high-resolution ADCs. In addition, design of few types of ADC is more complex as compared to other designs. For instance, successive approximation (SAR) conversion is the most complex design. Thus, the complex design of the device hampers the market growth.
Adoption of digitization of work processes by government in emerging economies
The digitization process involves conversion of information into digital format, which can be stored, manipulated, and processed to obtain the desired output. It consists of automation of the work process to meet customer expectation by reducing the number of steps required to complete a task. Governments of various countries are encouraging the digitization of their work process, especially in emerging economics. For instance, the Singapore government announced provision for a grant up to 50% of qualifying projects capped at $1 million, which will scale up or roll-out automation projects.
Key Benefits for Stakeholders:
Key Market Players Profiled
The analog-to-digital converters market possesses high potential for growth in the data converters industry. The current business scenario has witnessed an increase in the demand for these converters, particularly in the developing regions. The companies have adopted innovative techniques such as product launches, product developments, and partnerships in an effort to provide customers with advanced and innovative product offerings.
The global analog-to-digital converters market is expected to witness a high growth rate in the near future, attributable to rise in disposable income and numerous technological advancements. However, complex design of the device impedes the market growth.
Advanced innovation in communication technologies has been witnessed, such as multi-standard radios, multi-input/multi-output, due to which there exists need to provide multichannel programmable data conversion, which in turn is expected to drive the improved ADC performance in the near future.
Among the analyzed geographical regions, Asia-Pacific is expected to account for the highest revenue in the global market throughout the forecast period. However, LAMEA is expected to grow at a higher growth rate, predicting a lucrative market growth for analog-to-digital converter applications.
Analog Devices, Inc., Microchip Technology Inc., Sony Corporation, Maxim Integrated, Adafruit Industries, Texas Instruments Incorporated, Asahi Kasei Microdevices Co., Renesas Electronics Corporation, National Instruments, and Diligent Inc. are key market players that occupy a significant revenue share in the global market.

Setu Bandha Sarvangasana
(SET-too BAHN-dah)
setu = dam, dike, or bridge
bandha = lock
Feeling tight in the hips? Maybe the lower back is a little out of whack? Bridge pose can help with that! This pose is great to hold after the body is already warm or it can be used during warmup using a short, slow and flowing movement.
Getting into the Pose
Laying on the back, bend the knees and place the feet firmly on the floor. Arms are alongside the body with palms facing down.
With a deep inhale press the feet and hands into the floor and lift the hips toward the sky. Take a few breaths here working to lift the hips higher and draw the chest upward. The curve in the spine should happen mostly in the middle back (thoracic spine).
Maintain good alignment by keeping your gaze directed toward the knees and making sure the knees stay in line with the ankles.
To deepen the pose, walk the shoulders under the body slightly and clasp the hands together, palms facing inward. Lift higher, and maybe come up onto the toes or lift one leg at a time.
After slowly returning the hips to the ground, take a moment to come back to center and then bring the knees into the chest for a counter stretch.
Benefits for Athletes
- Stretches hips
- Stretches neck
- Stretches chest
- Releases stress in legs and back
- Builds core strength
- Brings focus in on breathing
- Strengthens legs and glutes
- Builds energy
Improve your Form
Knees splay out to the sides. Place a block or yoga ball between the knees and squeeze as you elevate the hips. Drawing the thighs inward and keeping the feet solidly and evenly driven into the ground will help give you good alignment in the knees and legs.
Too much pressure on the neck. In this pose, and any poses that have potential to put weight into the neck (cervical spine), pay close attention to your form. Rest your weight in the shoulders rather than on your neck or head and draw the chest upward moving drawing the hips up and forward.

Anil Thakraney finds out about the Rockstar director's early obsession with filmmaking and women
Although Imtiaz Ali's Rockstar didn't do as well financially as his earlier directorial ventures, Jab We Met and Love Aaj Kal, the film was widely acclaimed for its creativity and raw passion. Clearly, the 40-yearold writer-director's craft has evolved, and he seems to have found the right balance between form and content. Over several cuppas at a Lokhandwala
café in north Mumbai, we discuss his work, his approach to film-making and his rather mischievous childhood.
Rockstar didn't do too well commercially…
It did very well, but it wasn't a Dabangg or a Bodyguard, if you know what I mean. The film was a little edgy; it was not safe play. It was meant to do the business that it did. Everyone liked the film; there's been a lot of appreciation. People seem to think I have come a long way from my last film. But yes, there were certain things that didn't come easily to the viewers; some people had to watch it many times to realize that – and that's not necessarily a good thing. I've also found that my films have done better retrospectively. Even Jab We Met did better later than when it released.
You seem to be changing as a filmmaker. Jab We Met was light-hearted, popcorn cinema; Rockstar was serious and deep.
Yes, I did go deeper with Rockstar. It's the first movie in which I began to learn what direction really is, and learnt depth in the craft of making movies. That includes aspects like sound design, lighting and cinematography. Rockstar has enriched me.
A red flag, Imtiaz: The deeper you get, the higher the chance of becoming self-indulgent.
Sure, I agree, it's in my head as well. It's a question of balance. Rockstar was not as easy a story to tell as Jab We Met. But thanks for sharing your view – this could happen to me. If you see this play out in my next film, text me and let me know – I'm not the sort of person who'd mind that.
You took a risk with an unknown, Nargis Fakhri, in Rockstar – why?
She had never acted in her life. In this film, everything was illogical. What happened with Nargis is that I was looking for a certain depth in a person. It's that quality which is indescribable, but it exists in some people. When I saw her, I found she had that, but she was inside the body of a foreigner. But I thought it less of a risk to take her and train her in Hindi and in Indian aesthetics, than take a person who didn't have her heart.
Tell us something about growing up in Jamshedpur.
I grew up in Jamshedpur, but lived for many years in Patna and Ranchi, which are some of the poorest areas of the nation. But I always went to good schools, got a great education. As a child I was a loner and good at nothing. I was also a very complex kid because, from a very early age, I would look at women in a wrong way… a sexual way.
Nothing wrong with that! Many young boys are sexually attracted to their female teachers.
I am talking of a very young age, like when I was in kindergarten. I was known as the "devil child".
What harm could you possibly cause at that tender age?
I would sit on their laps and like… you know what I mean [laughs]?
You would get aroused at the age of five? Wow!
I don't remember whether I would get aroused, but I was thinking bad things. I also used to be a huge liar, and would tell tales because I was no good at anything else.
