FFStatistics Film Review: Saquon Barkley
There was a lot of questions thrown around when the New York Giants drafted Saquon Barkley second overall in this year's draft. Probably much deserved as they clearly need a quarterback. For those of us fortunate enough to watch Thursday Night Football you weren't necessarily treated to a great game. You did see a great individual effort from the young rookie phenom though.
Saquon Barkley: Week 6 Film Review
Very few Running Backs in the league can do what Barkley did on Thursday night. Todd Gurley, Ezekiel Elliott, LeVeon Bell, Alvin Kamara, David Johnson…. I'm running out of names here. The point is this was a special performance and i hope you were able to see it live. Maybe you weren't though. For that reason, I'm going back to review the tape and tell you if the numbers match the film from my perspective. I am excited for this one and I'm a Dallas Cowboys fan if that tells you anything. So lets get started. First of all, let's see his final line…
The Week 6 Performance
- 28.9 Standard Fantasy Points, 37.9 PPR (Point Per Reception) Points, 33.4 Half Point PPR Points
- 13 Rush Attempts, 130 Yards, Caught 9/12 Targets, 99 Yards, 1 TD (22 Total Touches, 229 Yards)
- 10.00 Yards Per Carry, 11.00 Yards per Reception, 10.41 Yards Per Touch, 27.91% Target Share
Barkley was able to ring up his second hundred yard rushing day as a pro in prime time for everyone to see, It was Sequon or bust in this game. Furthermore, he did it against the number two ranked rushing defense in the league through the first five weeks of 2018. The Philadelphia Eagles came into week 6 allowing a minuscule 66.4 Yards per Game (Y/G) at a 3.4 average. Prior to week 6, the Eagles were only 2.4 Y/G Behind the Chicago Bears for the league lead. These two teams are the only defense's allowing less then 87.8 Y/G. Certainly, they haven't face a list of Hall of Famer's this year but 66.4 Y/G is nothing to sneeze at. So below is the heat map the the Eagles rush defense…
…and as you can see the Eagles front 7 isn't giving up much on the ground except around the right side. Shouldn't the Giants'of tried to attack the Eagles 23rd ranked pass defense? (Green – Red = Most – least)
While the Giants did try to throw the ball (Eli Manning had 43 attempts) their QB had a season low in completion percentage at 55.81%. In contrast, his Weeks 1 – 5 average completion percentage is 71.66%. Hence, he was consistently inconsistent with his accuracy by over and under throwing receivers all game. This was an all around ugly game from Eli. With the combination of the Eagles, early season struggles in pass defense and the weapons the Giants have on offense there should of been points in the Giants passing game. So Barkley should be the one that struggled on the ground. But we can never predict game flow and this one did a 180 from what a lot of people's thought the flow would be.
The Week 6 Game Film
Opportunities – Redzone Opportunities in Bold Italic/ Big Plays in Bold / ^Completed Targets / *Incomplete Targets – (Time /Location /Down & Distance /Yards Gained /Location /Result /Broken Tackles /Air Yards – for targets)
I'll be going over all of Barkley's Week 6 opportunities. His Rush attempts, Targets and Receptions. Also, i'll give a few notes on the rest of his game. Pass blocking, hustle plays, exct. i'm here to do the dirty work so you don't have to.
First Quarter
Barkley started the game spread out wide and looked to be the first read but coverage was solid. The first action Saquon saw was on the second play of the game. Eli Manning's pass was a little behind the intended target and the line backer was able to get a hand in and pop the ball up for a deflected interception. Barkley showed hustle in being able to force the ball carrier out of bounds. This won't show up on the stats but it speaks highly for the player in general.
First Quarter Opportunities
- 13;15 / Own 25 /1st and 10 /4 Yard Rush /Own 29 /2nd and 6 – The defense filled the hole and Barkley did a good job cutting left and driving through two tacklers for as much as he could get.
- ^12:33 / Own 29 /2nd and 6 /7 Yard Rec. /Own 36/ First Down – A good catch on a ball that was a little off target. He showed good power through contact to pick up the first down.
- 11:50 / Own 36 /1st and 10 /46 Yard Rush /Phi 18 /First Down – On this play the Giants started in a three wide receiver set. One wide to the left with a slot receiver inside. One wide out on the right side along with the tight end. The WR on the right came in motion tight to the line. At the snap, the TE and the motioning wide out blocked down on the Line Backer (LB) and the Left Guard (LG) pulled around the right side to kick out another Eagles LB. The Blocking worked as planned here and a lane was opened up for Saquon. He quickly accelerated through the hole and two arm tackles and ran down the right sideline until an Eagles defender caught him. So this run was pretty well blocked and a slower back might not of been able to split the two tackle attempts but It was a very good run with a great burst through the hole.
- 6:12 / Own 1 /2nd and 18 /3 Yard Rush /Own 4 /3rd and 15 – He had to accelerate quickly after the hand off here. Two defenders came in and were able to get a hand on the Giants RB before he crossed the line of scrimmage. One of the lineman was able to wrap up and Barkley proceeded to drag him for a couple yards.
- 1:28 / Own 25 /1st and 10 /No Gain /Own 25 /2nd and 10 – This play was blown up from the start. Barkley did a good job just getting back to the line of scrimmage.
Second Quarter
Barkley had some Fantastic plays in this game. Most noteworthy in my opinion was his first touch of the second quarter. no, it wasn't his longest of the day or the play he scored on. So why was it so great? The individual effort he put forth on this nine yard run was phenomenal. Also, he was motioned out wide in the second quarter. The more the Giants are willing to use their rookie RB out of the backfield the better. Before the good though there was a couple pass blocking mistakes in the second quarter. Fortunately for Barkley, they didn't cost the team. This is something he will need to button up as we will see later though.
Second Quarter Opportunities
- 13:30 /Own 22 /1st and 10 /9 Yard Rush /Own 31 /2nd and 1 – So Barkley used all the skills that made him the second overall pick this year on this play. His vision, patience, speed, balance, and strength were on display for this one. This was one of the few times if not the only time a fullback lined up in the "I" or "Offset I." When Barkley received the hand off there was a hole in front of him. The Eagles Defensive End (DE) put a good rush on and forced the Giants Left Tackle (LT) into the young RBs face. Barkley cuts hard to the right to slip an arm tackle. Due to this slight hold up the original hole the blocking made is now being filled by two defenders. He works his way through traffic then jump cuts hard back to the left slipping the arms of a diving Eagle DB. Immediately he hurdles another diving Eagles DB. No sooner then his feet hit the ground there's another potential tackler in his face. He proceeds to put his head down and steam role this unfortunate man. All of this for nine yards.
- 12:54 /Own 31 /2nd and 1 /6 Yard Rush /Own 37 /First Down – Again a show of strength on this run as Barkley was met by two players at the line which he powered through for a First Down.
- ^10:40 /Own 32 /3rd and 15 /7 Yard Rec. /Own 39 /4th and 8 – He showed good power at the end to get what he could here.
- *8:14 /Own 32 /1st and 10 /Incomplete Pass/ Own 32 /2nd and 10 – He bails out Manning here when there was a heavy rush. The pass wasn't complete but the end result was not a sack.
- ^8:06 /Own 32 /2nd and 10 /55 Yard Rec. /Phi 18 /First Down – Another play that he put all his skills on display was this screen pass. Using his speed to out run the first defender, then weave through some traffic. He followed his convoy of blockers up the sideline. One Eagle defender slipped in and Barkley breaks his tackle attempt. Another defender jumps on Saquons. The powerful back is able to swing the other man off and keep chugging.
- ^6:57 /Phi 18 /3rd and 15 /9 Yard Rec. /Phi 9 / /4th and 6 (Roughing the passer called, automatic first down.) -Barkley was only a check down option on this particular play, yes. It is still a Redzone Target though.
- 6:39 /Phi 4 /1st and Goal /1 Yard Rush /Phi 3 /2nd and Goal – This play went nowhere fast as the Eagles DE blew the LG backwards into Barkley's lap. So what did he do? Well, another hard cut and he was able to gain a yard.
- 4:16 /Own 25 /2nd and 10 /No Gain /Own 25 /3rd and 10 – He was stopped by a great play by the defensive linemen.
- 1 ;01 /Phi 36 /1st and 10 /2 Yard Rush /Phi 34 /2nd and 8 – He Got what was blocked. Not much.
Third Quarter
In the third quarter, the Eagles pretty much sat on the ball. The Giants had possession for all of two minuets and 32 seconds. I guess if your only going to have it for five plays then make um count. Barkley only had 3 touches but he did just that with his final carry of the quarter.
Third Quarter Opportunities
- 8:09 /Own 36 /1st and 10 /1 Yard Rush /Own 37 /2nd and 9 – Probably the only time Barkley was knocked backwards.
- ^7:31 /Own 37 /2nd and 9 /4 Yard Rec. /Own 41 /3rd and 5 – The blocking was not to great on all this screen pass.
- 6:19 / 50 Yard Line /1st and 10 /50 Yard Rush /TD – The middle was jammed up on this run. So he bounced outside. Then Barkley turned on the burners. He split 3 defenders and ran away from everyone for the score.
Fourth Quarter
In the fourth quarter, the Giants were clearly in come back mode. Saquon was a big benefactor of this. The excellent pass catcher received 6 Targets in the Fourth Quarter. He was able to haul in four of them.
So do you remember i said Barkley would have to clean up his pass blocking a little. Here is where it reared its head. When trailing in the Fourth Quarter it's essential to hold those blocks. Everything is magnified at the end of the game. With about 13:00 minuets left in the Fourth Barkley let a man through to the backfield. Furthermore, that man ended up sacking his QB.
Fourth Quarter Opportunities
- *14:45 /Own 27 /1st and 10 /Incomplete Pass /Own 27 /2nd and 10 – Manning was in the clutches of the defense. He threw the ball at Barkley's feet to avoid a sack.
- ^13:38 /Own 40 /2nd and 10 /Rec. No Gain /Own 40 /3rd and 10 – The defender sniffed this screen pass out right away. Great open field tackle by the Philly LB.
- ^10:08 /Own 37 /1st and 10 /2 Yard Rec. /Own 39 /2nd and 8 – This was a poor throw by Manning. Barkley had to go to the ground to catch it.
- 9:43 /Own 39 /2nd and 8 /7 Yard Rush /Own 46 /3rd and 1 – Lined up next to Manning in the shotgun, Barkley runs the draw play here as good as you can… Until he trips over his feet before the first down. There was more to be had here.
- 9:19 /Own 46 /3rd and 1 /1 Yard Rush /Own 47 /First Down – A tough 1 yard run to move the chains.
- ^8:56 /Own 47 /1st and 10 /9 Yard Rec. /Phi 44 /2nd and 1 – So this was another example of Barkleys shiftiness. and burst. Two Eagles looked to be in good shape to make the tackle. Then the Giants RB cut right and turned up the accelerator. He was able to outrun two defenders and run out of a tackle attempt. He also pushed another defender back and almost picked up the first down.
- *6:13 /Phi 11 /1st and 10 /Incomplete Pass /Phi 11 /2nd and 10 – Manning tried to force it to his backfield mate at the goal line. He was double covered.
- ^6:08 /Phi 11 /2nd and 10 /6 Yard Rec. /Phi 5 /3rd and 4 – Finally his last touch of the day. This one a flat route. He broke the first tackle before two more Eagles take him down. It's only fitting that he finished the day with another forced missed tackle.
Final Thoughts
So from what i saw in the Week 6 film, i can tell you one thing. This kid is GOOD! Something special! It appears that he is not just a NFL Combine celebrity. Barkley is on a current pace for over 100 receptions. Also, he has already passed the Giants rookie RB record for catches. He is one of those rare few that seem to never get hit backwards. To be on the field as much as he is says a lot about what the team thinks of him in pass pro. He did have a few mistakes in this game but that will happen. The athletes he faces every week are better then he has ever went against. In contrast though…
…He is the highest graded RB to come out of college. if anyone can handle it, it's Barkley. All in all though the New York Giants rookie is a fantastic all around RB. In Dynasty you need to try and get him. in Redraft… Get him. Whatever format you play, he will be a good one for your team for years to come. Baring injury he shouldn't slow down.

Web Scraping for Journalists
Faster than FOI and more detailed than advanced search techniques, scraping also allows you to grab data that organisations would rather you didn't have – and put it into a form that allows you to get answers.
Scraping – getting a computer to capture information from online sources – is one of the most powerful techniques for data-savvy journalists who want to get to the story first, or find exclusives that no one else has spotted.
Paul Bradshaw will show you how to scrape content from the web and find stories that otherwise you might have been missed.
Course Outline
This two-day workshop in scraping is designed for reporters with no knowledge of scraping or programming and provides essential skills for getting original stories by compiling data across a range of online sources. By the end of the workshop, you will be able to use specialist scraping tools (without programming) and begin to write your own, more advanced, scrapers. You will also be able to communicate with programmers on relevant projects. (See below for more information and technical requirements – you must bring your own laptop).

I worked with Bryan from Concept Effects for my wedding on June 5th of 2015. He did our lighting, transportation (party bus for bridal party and limo for me, my maid of honor and father to the church for the ceremony), he referred me to the DJ we chose (Matt from A Posh Productions who was AMAZING and extremely professional), he brought in a videographer, and even though we had a photographer, he brought in another photographer so we have double the photos! Bryan was extremely professional to work with and he listened to everything I wanted and made it a reality. He also brought in something new when the party started getting super fun, a CO2 cannon. It was the first time anyone has seen a CO2 cannon and it was awesome, I DEFINITELY recommend doing that. For our first dance, he set up dancing under the stars which was amazing. The whole night was unforgettable and I owe a lot of that to Bryan and Concept Effects. Hurry up and book your big day with Concept Effects before 2016 is all filled up!Sent on 08/03/2015
Concept Effects's reply:Stefanie, you and Chris were great to work with. The pictures came out great and the facial reactions from your guests, and especially Chris, were one of a kind when we brought out the CO2 cannon. By Far one of our favorite weddings. Hope all is well.

A dash of green amongst July and August. Light, fresh, indeed refreshing. Opera – picnic – simple – complex. It crumbles between my fingers, nestled leafily between red and white. My skin, it's rouged too.

Surprisingly enough, IU album is not total crap : there's at least 2 songs I've been listening and enjoying.
GI's Gi-Yeuk is incredible.
I love Park Ji Yoon's comeback even though I would have prefer something more along the line of her last album.
Acourve's song is AWESOME. I've stumble upon it on youtube even though there's no MV. I fell in love with it right away.
SORAN is a fun band. I wasn't sure at first with Ricotta Cheese Salad, even though I liked the concept and thought it was fun. But one night, I had a bad nightmare, woke up, but was really really tired and stayed in bed all frightened. I was trying to stay awake a bit to give myself time to "forget" and not fall asleep starting the nightmare where I had left it. I had a hard time cuz my eyes were closing by themself. Then, out of nowhere, I've started to have this song stuck in my head, and it helped soo much. It's so funny and happy and FOOOD! So yeah, it drove the bad spirits away :)
Bond Girl deserve way more view, it's a great hip song full of energy and of Zion.T, but the great one, not the one a bit bleh when he does a whole song. He's a "featuring genius".
I Love You is cute and bubbly, it's a great song, but not over the top intense. It's a happy ballad in a way. They should do more of them, happy ballad are great.
You'll see that Alice in Weird Land is a OST song, but it's great and different. It makes me think of BlueDawn, wich is a good thing.
SHINee's Symptoms is way better than Everybody, that I'm almost not listening to anymore.
Sweet Salt have a great song and the MV is really really nicely done. The singer has great vocals and I'm enjoying this song more and more everyday.
The Jaywalker don't do song like the one I've put usually. They're more rock somehow. But this song is just, wow, I really like it a lot. It's great for a night ride in town or just walking at night in deserted streets. It's contemplative. Maybe it could be great for taking a long bath too (YES! I love "bath songs"!)
I don't really listen to Seo In Young's Love Me anymore. Grew tired of it since it came out in the early October. Same goes for AOA's Confused, TroubleMaker's Now (such a weak song), Kahi's It's Me, JomungeunBand's Say Something and Roo's Even You Don't Love Me. Also, not listening that much Walk Backwards, though I'm still kinda fond of it.
Anyway, enjoy!

Like haircuts, brow shapes are not one-size-fitting-all. The secret for having the perfect eyebrows really relies on the proportions of your face. The precise eyebrow shape according to your specific face cut not only opens up the entire eye region and works to enhance the face's overall dimensions, but also lets you carry any outfit without wearing much makeup, making you make you look rested, younger, fresher, healthy and all the more attractive.
Read on the top secrets to get perfect eyebrow shapes to flatter your face flawlessly:
If you have a round face shape, you'd want to ensure our eyebrows are super angular. Since there is a shortage of definition in rounder faces, the faultless angled eyebrow is all what you need to define and bring out your facial bone structure which is not present or lacking. For round cuts, a high arch is very flattering.
Squared jawline highlights the angularity of your facial cuts therefore soft rounded eyebrows are the key and way to go. But ensure the brows aren't very angular and round. You wouldn't want to make a rainbow-shaped eyebrow by simply over plucking them.
Though bold eyebrows can be seen everywhere in the fashion culture these days, a heart-shaped face would certainly stand best by avoiding this trend. Since these women are born with a petite jaw bone and the emphasis is mainly over the upper part of the face, it is essential to keep brows well-manicured and exceptionally groomed.
All said and done, keep in mind that a thin eyebrow NEVER looks good and is in! The whole point here is to craft an outline that is organized and never unkempt. This firm eyebrow on the top half of your face will aid to balance out the smaller jawline and chin of the bottom hemisphere.
Long face shapes are characterized by their vertically stretched-out features. For women with such face cuts, it is essential to lengthen the tails of your eyebrows from east-to-west to literally pull up those horizontal features.It's recommended that the tails of the eyebrows go beyond the eye corners however long face cuts must make it a fact for their tails to always extend a little longer. Also, it is essential to be careful while carving the tail as letting it go too far out will drag your eyes downwards, making them look droopy.
Women with oval faces are those whose shape looks like an inverted egg.
A balanced, classic eyebrow is the right choice for a well-proportioned face cut like this. Go for an angled eyebrow that is a tad softer than the shapes which complement a round a face.
Don't wish to emphasize over your face's elongated lines? A flat eyebrow outline is your saver and creates the impression of a shorter face cut. Adding a minor curve might also give your face a round shape.
A rounded or curved eyebrow shape will make the widest portion of your diamond face appear less wider thereby balancing out all other facial features finely.
The tip of the eyebrow should start from the bridge of your nose. It's very easy to find this point by simply holding a pencil vertically up to each side of the nose bone.
One of the biggest mistakes that women make is to opt for a centered arch shape eyebrow. This results in the dreaded 'rainbow' outline. Always make sure that the brow arches are around two-thirds of the way out.
The tail should end on an imagined mark from the corners of your nose to the corners of your eyes and not trimmed very short. You can let it extend a bit more as long as the tail doesn't end anywhere lower than the area where the head starts. Ensure your tails taper to a sharp point always to lift-up your eye best.
Consider these expert tips every time you shape those brows, or better yet visit HighBrow Beauty trained BRow Artists to have your face framed with perfect brows taylor to your face's shape.

Marathon Walks - And Why You Don't Need 'Em!/
So physical exercise like walks and hiking are AWESOME for your dog! But let's be honest. We don't have 2-3 hours every day to march around the neighborhood with our dogs. No one enjoys taking a revved up dog for a 1-2 hour walk (or drag in most cases. Which is why you should always play or train your dog BEFORE a walk.) So learn to use your time wisely!
Mental exercise is just as important as physical exercise for a balanced dog. If you took 15 minutes in the morning, 15 at lunch, 15 when you get home, and 15 in the evening you would give your dog a full hour of mental exercise. If you were to combine this with ever other day walks you would have one happy dog.
So what the heck is mental exercise for a dog anyways? Well this can run a gamut of things from tricks, treibball, rally, rally free, musical freestyle (heelwork to music), and agility. All of these things help your dog learn new things and save you from marathon walks every day. If you aren't sure where to start when it comes to these sports, take a class! Or challenge yourself to teach a new trick to your dog every week. YouTube is always a great source of inspiration! Take the music video below, there are a ton of different tricks to teach.
Some food for thought about the video above...it took them SEVENTY TWO takes to get this one. So when you start looking for perfection and instant success, just remember that it all takes time, ok? Patience, persistence, and partying are the keys to fun trick sessions!
A great book to start with is 101 Dog Tricks by Kyra Sundance. She also has a Trick Dog Title Program. Another great trick title option is offered by Paws and People. Check out both of these great programs to teach your dog something new! You'll be amazed at how quickly 15 minutes of trick work tires out an active mind.

The Wine Community-Building Power of SOMM
Whenever I view SOMM with people that are seeing it for the first time, the audience reaction reminds me just how emotionally-charged the film is. This is especially so with responses in a crowded theater. The amplified "Awwwws" and gasps during the scenes where the sommeliers receive the results of their Master Sommelier exams, or when we learn they are never told the correct identity of the tasting wines, are particularly stirring. These collective, engaged expressions create a warm sense of comaraderie, that everyone in the audience is going through the testing process together with the somms.
The sense of community lingers after the film, as people gather over their glasses to compare viewing notes. Conversations carry on about the talent and commitment of the somms, how unbelievably rigorous the MS program must be, or favorite lines like Brian McClintic's "...tannins that ripped your face off!" The best observations are of how the film has inspired the viewers to taste and educate themselves about a broader scope of wines. Question and answer sessions lead to deeper discussions, with notes recorded for future reference. New friendships are initiated, with plans set in motion to share further in the mutual love of wine. Wine brings passionate people together, and SOMM escalates wine's societal effects.
SOMM is a special kind of film for wine lovers, and the show will go on: SOMM: Into The Bottle will premier as the opening feature of the Napa Valley Film Festival on November 11th, 2015. It will star many of the wine superheroes from the original cast, and if the initial teaser is any indication, the same powerful emotional impact from the first film carries on as well. Follow me for more details on the sequel as they become available.

Dear Neighbors,
Each summer we at Preservation Pittsburgh like to call attention to the historic resources within our parks by adding significant landmarks to the City's Register of Historic Places. The Tufa Bridges, Catahecassa Spring, and so many other gems have fascinating stories to tell though each is a small chapter in the history of the parks. And like these landmarks, the parks themselves deserve recognition for their unique stories and how they contribute to the history of Pittsburgh.
Currently only one of Pittsburgh's regional parks, Schenley, holds the honor of being listed on the National Register of Historic Places, but we're working to change that.
In partnership with the City of Pittsburgh, the Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy, and neighbors across the city, we're proud to lead the effort to list Frick, Highland, and Riverview Parks on the National Register of Historic Places by 2020.
We're starting this multi-year effort by first pursuing a listing for Frick Park this fall. We invite you to learn more about it, and the larger Parks Initiative, through our website and at a community meeting hosted in the Frick Environmental Center (RSVP here)
Preserving a world made of steel made of stone,
Matthew W.C. Falcone, President

Screen for Cognitive Enhancers and Anti-Epileptics
Lead inventor: Dietmar Plenz
A novel pattern of locally synchronized activity arising from intrinsic properties of the network of neurons in the frontal cortex that follows power law is called Neuronal Avalanche. A 'critical state' for Neuronal Avalanche was determined using distribution of neuronal avalanche size. Based on the determined 'critical state' for neuronal avalanche size cognitive functions relating to the prefrontal and frontal cortex can be determined. This invention discloses the use of Neuronal Avalanche Size to screen for drugs that either alter functions of the frontal cortex (working memory, reasoning, decision processing, etc.) or alleviate or promote epileptic activity.

Bright Start
I was treated to a gorgeous sunrise this morning. And with only afternoon clinic, I decided to just sit back after shower enjoying the glorious light.
It looked to be a light day today with a quick ward round in the morning following which I planned to get back to the apartment to do some reading. This will take me to the afternoon clinic which I hope not going to be too busy.
Today will be topped off with the Oncology Team Berbuka at the hospital cafe after work. It was becoming a tradition and now just me and Matin Mellor being the patrons after the passing of Arwah Ahmad Kamal a few years back.
I could not help but picture his smiling face still every time we have such gathering. I was sure he would be remembered again this evening ...

Niigata University was founded in 1949 after the creation of a new Japanese education system.
The university was the result of a merger between seven separate schools and colleges. Niigata University can trace its origins back to 1870, when Kyoritsu Hospital, later Private Niigata Hospital, was built.
The Ikarashi campus of the university, which can be found south west of Niigata city centre, near the coast, houses colleges including the Faculty of Engineering, Faculty of Law, Faculty of Science, Faculty of Engineering, Faculty of Agriculture and the Faculty of Humanities, along with the Central Library and the Health Administration Centre. It also includes most of the university's accommodation and sports facilities, which include spaces reserved for baseball, rugby, football, tennis, athletics and equestrian.
The more central Asahimachi campus is home to the Faculty of Medicine and Faculty of Dentistry, the latter of which was established in 1965. The emblem of the university is called "Rikka", and depicts the shape of a snow crystal.
Niigata city, located on the island of Honshū, has been an international port since 1858. It is also an important agricultural city. The Shinano River, the longest in the country, runs through the centre of Niigata, as does the Agano.
The city faces Sado-ga-shima, a spectacular island popular for its mountains, beaches and serene fishing villages. Travel to Tokyo, to the city's south east, takes approximately two hours on the bullet train. The university is around an hour from Niigata Airport, which runs a small number of domestic and international flights.

PR(10)12: Formal investigation procedure opened with regard to a Mortgage Loan Scheme operated by the Icelandic Housing Financing FundToday, the EFTA Surveillance Authority decided to open the formal investigation procedure with regard to possible state aid granted to financial institutions in Iceland by the Housing Financing Fund, under the Mortgage Loan Scheme.
As a result of turmoil in the global financial markets, the Icelandic financial institutions have been faced with shortage of credit. In response to this situation, the Icelandic State authorities decided to adopt measures aimed at securing the functioning of financial markets. One of such measures consists of authorising the Housing Financing Fund (HFF) to purchase mortgage loans from financial undertakings.
The Mortgage Loan Scheme takes the form of a permanent asset swap, according to which the financial institution receives the HFF's bonds in exchange for mortgage loans which are transferred to the HFF.
The preliminary conclusion of the Authority is that the asset swap under the Mortgage Loan Scheme involves state aid to the financial institutions. In the current market circumstances of financial crisis the Authority doubts that a private market investor would engage in a similar asset swap.
The Authority has doubts as to whether the Mortgage Loan Scheme may be considered compatible with the functioning of the EEA Agreement. The Authority has assessed the scheme under the state aid guidelines on Impaired Asset Relief. In today's decision, the Authority expresses doubt with regard to the valuation of the assets swapped, the adequacy of the remuneration for the state, and the limitation of the scheme as regards to scope and time.
A decision to open the formal investigation procedure is without prejudice to the final decision to be adopted by the Authority. The opening decision will be published in the EEA Section of the Official Journal of the European Union and the EEA Supplement thereto, inviting interested parties to comment within one month from the date of publication. The Authority will take its final decision after having reviewed comments from the Icelandic Government and from any other interested parties.

How To Have The Sex Talk Without Having a Sex Talk
Understanding The Psycho-Sexual-Spiritual Developmental Stages of Your Children
Parents often ask me, "How old should my kids be when I give them The Talk?"
This is already the wrong question, and most likely it is too late.
If you don't talk about sex openly with your children, your children are going to learn about it from their friends and the media.
Here's what you need to know to equip your children to know who they are and what they are made for.
Your Instructor
Dr. Greg Bottaro is a Catholic Psychologist who directs the CatholicPsych Institute and developed Catholic Mindfulness. Before getting his doctorate, he spent four years living as a Franciscan Friar. Under the mentorship of Fr. Benedict Groeschel, this experience helped him form a spirituality based on Abandonment to Divine Providence which he now applies to psychological principles in his practice.

Leinenkugel's Beer Calories
If Wisconsin-based Leinenkugel's beer is one of your favorite brews to enjoy after a hard day at work, your waistline could ultimately pay the price. The beers usually range from 125 to 210 calories for just one 12-ounce bottle or can. That'll quickly add up if you have several.
Calorie Counts
Some varieties of Leinenkugel beer have 125 to 130 calories per 12-ounce bottle. The Lemon Berry Shandy, Orange Shandy and Summer Shandy Light all fall into this caloric range. If you prefer the Canoe Paddler, Honey Weiss or Sunset Wheat flavors, you'll get nearly 150 calories from the same amount. The Snowdrift Vanilla Porter, Oktoberfest, Creamy Dark Lager, Red Lager and Hoppin' Helles varieties each provide between 165 and 180 calories from a 12-ounce pour. Splurge and get the fruity Berry Weis beer and you'll get nearly 210 calories from a 12-ounce serving.

In the end I went with TT Combat because they had what I was after at a good price, I've also dealt with them a fair bit so I know what I'm getting into. I ordered three different sorts of terrain; some fantasy houses and scenics for Warhammer and LOTR, some Gothic ruins for 40k and some more generic sci-fi for use in all manner of things.
I managed to get a few games of LOTR in recently, the release of the new Battle Companies supplement has reignited enthusiasm at the club and a few more people are keen to get involved. I got pasted with a Gondor warband in our Friday Christmas event at the local club but it was fun never the less. I have been working on painting up my Mordor warband, I've finished half of them and have ordered a Mordor Troll to compliment the army after my mate's Dwarves battered them into nothingness last week.
On the subject of painting I'm going to have a go at the 365 minis challenge this year. I'm not sure I'll get 365 done but I'm going to at least give it a try. It's the 16th today and I've actually done 18 models with another 5 nearly done so I'm off to a good start!
Pictures to follow.
Happy new hobby year everyone.

For me, Christmas is about two things: The Muppet Christmas Carol and drinking before noon. And for many people there's the whole "helping the less fortunate" thing which, conveniently, can be done drunkenly before noon.
For the fifth year in a row, The Killers have put out a new Christmas song. It's called Boots, the video is by Napoleon Dynamite director Jared Hess, and it's being released for Starbucks.
Now here's the thing: I don't think this song is good at all. I don't care much for Starbucks. Brandon Flowers is wearing on my last nerve with his so-awful-you-will-tear-your-eyes-out-so-you-can-use-them-as-earplugs solo album, and I loathe Napoleon Dynamite. But for every internet view this video receives, Starbucks will donate 5¢ to (RED), a charity dedicated to lowering the HIV/AIDS birthrate to 0%. And even I'm not enough of an asshole to think that babies should die of AIDS.
So watch the video. Turn off the sound and watch it twice. Watch it 71 times and your grande mocha latte will be a tax writeoff.
Or you can not watch it at all and do something else you enjoy, like throwing kittens at orphans, you heartless bastard.
Remember, this is for a good cause:

Lowestoft Town 1 Tonbridge Angels 2: Blues skipper proud of what club has achieved this season
PUBLISHED: 15:03 22 April 2018 | UPDATED: 15:03 22 April 2018
Shirley D Whitlow Lowestoft Town FC
"I am massively proud of what we have achieved, the club has a huge place in my heart and I am so glad with how it has panned out."
The honest thoughts of Lowestoft Town captain Travis Cole who, despite defeat in the final home match of the season to Tonbridge Angels, already knew the Trawlerboys had secured their league safety.
A late strike from Tashi-Jay Kwayie was enough to claim victory for the visitors in the game.
The goal, two minutes from time, was a massive blow for the home side, who had got back into the game through Shaun Bammant, after falling behind through a goal from Alex Akrofi.
"It was a bit of a wounder, we didn't start the game as strongly as we would have wanted," said Cole, who was named supporters' player of the year before the match.
"We don't want to see any football club deteriorate in the way it has, so for me being a local lad, I am so glad that we have survived."
Home manager Dale Brooks made the one change from the last match, as Ollie Humphrey replaced Robert Eagle - who was recalled by Leiston after his short loan spell.
The game soon sparked into life with Renei Batlokwa forcing keeper Henly into a brilliant stop after three minutes.
Ten minutes later, Harvey Hodd's cross come shot, crashed back off the crossbar - with the visiting keeper stranded.
The visitors should have taken the lead on 37 minutes as Alex Akrofi, shot over the bar from three yards out - after being set up by Kwayie.
The dangerous striker made amends just seconds later. A free-kick from Joe Turner was headed home by the striker for his 20th goal of the season.
After the restart, it was the Angels who nearly extended their lead.
Kwayie stung the hands of Putnins, before Turner curled over the bar when well placed.
On 68 minutes, Lowestoft did claim the all important equaliser. After Jacek Zielonka was fouled on the edge of the box, Adam Smith's free-kick was met by Bammant, who finished well from inside the penalty area.
Lowestoft then had a couple more chances to seize the initiative. Shaun Bammant shot over before Armani Schaar did the same, when both were well placed.
But they were hit with a sucker punch just two minutes from time. A cross into the box was headed down by substitute Nathan Elder and finished off by Tashi-Jay Kwayie to break Lowestoft hearts.

What is statute of limitations on a personal injury claim in Georgia?
The statute of limitations for a personal injury case depends on the type of defendant. For an individual, you should think in terms of a two year rule. For a local government, think in terms of six month rule to notify the attorney representing the county or city. For suing a state or federal government, think in terms of one year or two years depending. As you can see, it is always best to contact a lawyer instead of making huge mistakes.
Personal Injury Statute of Limitations Example:
You live in McDonough. You are driving your car in Atlanta, Fulton County and are rear-ended by a driver who lives in Dekalb County on January 5th, 2017. You have until January 5, 2019 to file your lawsuit. Where would you file it? In Dekalb County because that is where the at-fault driver lives.
HOWEVER: If the other driver received a driving citation for the incident, and plead to the ticket, the date of the plea or sentence starts the starts the two year period. So in the example above, let's add the facts that the driver plead to following too closely on March 1, 2010. The new deadline to file your personal injury claim is March 1, 2012. Each state has different statute of limitations for civil courts. That means that there are different time limits, so if you lived in another state, forget that states laws.
Missing the statute of limitations deadline in Georgia is worst possible outcome for your case. An experienced accident attorney will make sure that the lawsuit is filed well before the statute of limitations in near.
Just because you are negotiating with the insurance company or even the law firm representing the insurance company does not mean you have met the statute of limitations. It is a requirement that legal action is commenced. That means you must file a lawsuit before the deadline or statute of limitations in Georgia.

Get Compensated for Personal Injury from Car Accidents
Have you ever been in a car accident? It is very traumatic, and that is putting things lightly. Car accidents are, fortunately, a rare occurrence but not something that you can absolutely sure that would never happen to you. Hopefully, it would amount to nothing more than a ding that car insurance can solve in a snap.
However, things are different if there is already personal injury involved. This can occur even for slow moving vehicles, but is more common when a driver is intoxicated or speeding. Head-on collisions are even worse, as it would cause more damage to you or your passengers, and it may affect other vehicles as well.
What to Do in an Accident?
Should you find yourself in a car accident, it is very important to stay calm. Check yourself for injuries as well as the status of your passengers. Should everyone be okay, then you have to make sure that your vehicle's brakes are engaged and that you turn off your engine. This is very important especially if there is danger of fire that may be caused by the accident. It may also be wise to turn on your hazard lights to inform surrounding traffic to take caution when approaching you.
Take note that your safety as well as the safety of others around you take precedent. Offer first aid as needed, if and only if you are qualified to do so, and call paramedics should you think they may be needed. Once all of that is out of the way, then it would be a good time to call a personal injury lawyer.
What is a Personal Injury Lawyer?
A personal injury lawyer is someone who specializes in litigation for injuries caused during car accidents and other situations. They are the ones that will guide you on how to seek proper compensation for your injuries. They will also do the coordination with everyone involved in order to build your case, and they will the ones who will communicate with the defendants on whether they would like to settle for a certain amount or if they would like the case to be brought to the court.
Many law firms have personal injury lawyers on their team, while there are also individuals and groups that you can find that actually specialize in these types of claims. As such, every driver should have the name and contact inform of at least one personal injury lawyer handy in these types of situations.
Why Do I Need a Personal Injury Laywer?
Injury caused by car accidents vary, from simple whiplash to broken bones and even internal bleeding or damage in the cause of high speed or head-on collisions. Some insurance companies may compensate you for your vehicle's damages, but you may get little coverage for your own injuries as well as those of your passengers.
Thus, you may have to pay for treatment from your own pocket. The same goes for rehabilitation and medicines. You would also not be able to work during your healing time, costing you even more money in the form of lost wages. Of course, there's the emotional damage and trauma that the injury and accident may have caused.
With this, a personal injury lawyer can definitely help you get what you deserve. They will be the ones who will go through all of the motions to make sure that you are properly compensated for the pain, trauma, and inconvenience that the incident has caused.
What Do You Need to Do?
A personal injury lawyer would definitely require you to do some things immediately after the accident. They would require you to document the scene as accurately and as freshly as possible. The best images are the ones at the point of impact, both zoomed in and zoomed out, with the concerned vehicles not having moved.
Pictures of your injuries and the injuries of your passengers would also have to be documented. Videos are even better, as you could document and record things that photographs cannot represent.
A lawyer would even recommend getting the photograph of all the surrounding areas of the accident, as well as of those involved in the accident. In the event of investigation and litigation, there is no such thing as too much documentation.
If there is no chance of the other vehicle driving away, then there is no need to approach the driver. You can just stay in your vehicle or somewhere close to it and tend to your party's injuries until police arrive. Otherwise, you can try and get the information of all persons involved. You may get their name, contact information, and insurance information and make sure that it is properly documented either by writing it down or by taking pictures or videos.
Perhaps most importantly, never discuss the accident without legal counsel. Never admit guilt or even provide information about what happened. A personal injury lawyer will be in charge of that, as he will investigate or hire out a team to check what really happened, and this data would be used should you decide to pursue a case against the other persons involved in the accident. In this case, staying quiet is definitely the best decision as anything and everything you say can and will definitely be used against you, especially if there is a presence of the police around to hear you.
Of course, make sure to check yourself into the hospital and have a doctor treat your wounds as well as look for less obvious injuries that may worsen over time. Have yourself X-rayed and have a CT scan done if necessary so that you don't have to worry about other broken bones or brain injuries. Lastly, make sure to jot down your doctor's name as your personal injury lawyer may require to talk to him as part of his investigation as he builds your case for you.
Final Thoughts
Car accidents are really unfortunate, but they do happen whether we like it or not. The best that we can do is to be careful out there on the road and be better defensive drivers. If the unforeseen does occur, however, make sure to have a personal injury lawyer by your side so that there would be someone that would take your best interests in mind. The money that you will get may not compensate fully for everything that you have experienced, but it is definitely a step in the right direction.

It's pretty much safe to say that we have not prepared for this trip at all.
This summer has been a complete whirlwind, what with a wriggly new puppy to care for, various business trips every week that barely sees one of us at home, and a move to a new flat to contend with.
The last month of our lives has looked something like this:
When we were gearing up to go touring in Burma at the beginning of the year, that was us at the peak of our organisation. Extensive research done on the landscape and potential route. Rides on our turbo trainer three times a week. Hours spent discussing the supplies we'd need. Test packing and careful consideration of each item we'd take with us.
This time around? We've thrown the baby in with the bathwater and are hoping for the best.
Neil has family in Belfast, and because we'll be starting and ending our trip there, we're able to pack Samson into proper bike boxes this time (one half per box) and leave them in storage for when we finish the loop. This will cushion his travel and hopefully mitigate any of the gremlins that plagued us in Burma. So that's a plus.
Northern Ireland's weather is notoriously variable, and as a result, we've packed a combination of winter and summer kit. Thermals and waterproof clothing to shield us from the wind and rain, and typical bib shorts and tops in the optimistic hope that there will be some sun. But really, it doesn't matter what the forecast says - expect the opposite. And clouds.
Regarding tools and supplies, we are taking only the necessaries - multitool, spare inner tubes (of which only one is unused and two are patched because we didn't have time to get new ones), coupling grease, chain oil, and a 15mm wrench for our pedals. That's it.
We're not travelling to the middle of nowhere like we did with Burma. Northern Ireland has infrastructure, and thanks to an increasing cycling culture (in part, due to the 2014 Giro d'Italia which started in Belfast), we'll most likely find and buy what we need.
In the absolute worst case scenario, someone can pick us up and take us where we need to go. We won't be stranded. And because we can speak the language, it'll be a lot easier for us to communicate our issues and find help.
Here we go!

The Complexities of Sprinkler Installation
A sprinkler installation denver is not an easy job. It requires experience so pipes are buried without damaging the entire lawn. A full evaluation of the property is needed to determine the best layout and the best product to suit the size and features of the yard. A small yard with flowers growing around the house will not need the same sprinkler setup as a huge lawn with a vegetable garden, shrubs, and a water fountain.
Installation for the Long-term
A sprinkler system is an investment that can last for decades with the proper maintenance and expert Sprinkler repair Denver. Considering future needs, locations of tree roots, septic tanks, and plans for landscaping is essential for a long-lasting system that will continue to operate at maximum efficiency. The installers must take the time to listen to the goals of the property owner to ensure the system will meet present and future needs and desires.
Another way to install for the long haul is to offer different system options from top manufacturers. Hunter, Toro, Blazing, and Rain Bird are a few examples of top brands in the industry. These systems are designed to be durable, water and energy-efficient, quiet, and reliable. Experienced professionals can install any of these sprinkler systems in one day.
Maintenance and Routine Repair Services
Keeping sprinklers operating well, consistently, and with few major repairs is easy with regular maintenance and repair services. As the system ages, parts will get worn, valves will leak, and pipes will get clogged. Proactive assessments and repairs will minimize operational costs and prolong the life of the system.
Standard services can include assessments of the hoses and pipes to determine if clogs or leaks are apparent, replacement of malfunctioning components, and assessing valves for leakage. A small and slow leak in one valve can result in a spike of water usage.
Closing down the System
The process of winterizing the system, referred to as blowout, is crucial to protecting the investment. Sprinkler blowout Denver consists of completely draining pipes and hoses of water, shutting off the water connection to the system, and turning off each station. This should always be done by professionals. Failure to blowout the system causes problems in the spring.
Pipes and hoses can split from the impact of water freezing inside them. Valves can become loose from excessive pressure, and sprinkler heads can be damaged once the water is turned back on. This type of damage is expensive to fix, so avoid it by arranging to have blowout service every fall.

One of the first concepts I was introduced to when we came out to Washington was OPSEC (Operational Security). When J was in Bahrain, there wasn't really a need to worry too much about OPSEC. He was in the middle of the desert in Bahrain. If he'd told me the region he was in or a nearby town, it wouldn't have meant much to me anyhow. I honestly don't remember even hearing of Bahrain before he was stationed there.
With a ship, it's different. A deployed ship's movements is closely guarded in the military. It may seem kind of silly – ships, especially an aircraft carrier like the Stennis, are massive – but no matter how large a ship is, the Pacific is a whole heck of a lot bigger, and ships are equipped with plenty of equipment and technology to keep them hidden.
For a civilian associated with the military, OPSEC is pretty cut and dry: Keep your mouth shut. With Facebook, Twitter, and email, however, it's a lot more complicated to keep information under wraps than back when all that was required was a black marker and a careful eye on a letter. And, trust me, nothing is more frustrating than seeing a comment on a photo or a post on a ship's page that says, "Hey, does anyone know when the next port call/return date is?"
The best piece of advice I read was, "Never assume the enemy isn't collecting information." Posting a month can give someone that one last bit of information they needed to track down the ship. It sounds dramatic, but it's really true.
The other problem is you never know what information being circulated is actually true. Spouses often create codes between themselves to give information to each other securely, but you never know when the code can be misinterpreted. One of the wives shared a return date for the deployment J is currently on, and when – several months later – J got a return date from a source on the ship, it was completely different.
Frankly for me having a specific return date doesn't affect things that much. It's still months away, and I've been planning for their return since before they left. Until I need to be on that pier with the kids, waiting on the ship to arrive, the return date is secondary. Okay, actually until I need to have my and the kids' outfits picked out, and the house picked up, and all the "Welcome home!" festivities ready (AKA The Second Christmas) and be on the pier, it's secondary. Until then, I have outfits to pick out and a house to clean (Let's not lie, that'll be the last thing to be done.) and The Second Christmas to plan. 🙂

"Give my daughter the shot!"/
Entertainment Tonight is counting down the top tear-jerking movies and they just showed a clip from Terms of Endearment.
Gosh, I love this movie. If you haven't seen it in a while, you must watch it. Jack Nicholson is at his absolute best; every word that comes out of his mouth is amazing. And Shirley MacLaine... oh, how I love her. This has to be her best performance ever.
Funny story... When my sister was in labor with Nora, the nurses didn't want to give her an epidural when she arrived at the hospital because they thought she was too close to delivery. In an Aurora Greenway moment, I started screaming, "Give my sister the shot!" hoping to both make them cave and make my sister laugh to take her mind off the pain. It worked—my sister ended up getting the shot and a laugh. (For the record, Jack was delivered au naturel. Go, sissy.)
Later on, however, just as Nora was about to come out, I had a Salt-n-Pepa moment and started singing, "Push it... Push it real good!" My brother-in-law joined in. My sister shot us a nasty glare between huffs and puffs. Doing this is not recommended. I repeat: not recommended.
PS - I couldn't find a link to the tearjerker countdown on ET's website, but I came across this one on TNT's website while searching.

'Death' Archives
Hope Tempered With Tears
Back when I was being trained for pastoral counseling, the spirit of this verse was often emphasized: "Like vinegar poured on a wound, so is one who sings songs to a heavy heart." (Proverbs 25:20) In counseling, you're taught a lot about listening, about empathy, but as much as anything, you're taught not to tell a person in the pit of suffering: "The sun will come out tomorrow!" Most of the time, that's not what they need to hear. They mostly need you to join them in their [...]
8 Questions: Why Spiritual Self-Examination Matters (sermon audio)
Socrates once said, "The unexamined life is not worth living." Jesus once said that his disciples would know the truth, and that the truth would set them free. This sermon asserts that the truth we're encouraged to know isn't just the truth about God, but also the truth about ourselves. With as much honesty as we can muster, we must ask: Who am I? Why am I here? What do I want? Is there a difference between what I say I want and how I'm living my life? What does [...]
In Defense of Feel-Good Movies, Cheesy Melodramas, and Happy Endings
I recently completed another viewing of the television show, Downton Abbey. Lasting six seasons, it's a melodrama about British high-society and servant life set in the early 1900s. I've watched it a few times and am always pleasantly flummoxed by how the show ends. It's not just a happy ending, but one of the happiest of endings. Every couple in the story is either married off or at least forecast to be married. Virtually every loose end is tied and every conflict resolved. What [...]

Humility and Gratitude
(Originally written June 2007) A beautiful woman died the other day. And, for my own life, I have no reason at all to complain. Jacqui was to turn 28 in a month or so. She was a gorgeous, petite girl with striking eyes and auburn hair. She was filled with love and with an amazing energy for life. She was married just under 2 years to a wonderful man. But, she died. Of cancer. (more…)

The McMansion Glut
America's love affair with sprawling homes is showing signs of waning as the real-estate market softens and aging boomers seek smaller houses. Our reporter on nervous sellers and the growing supply of 'faux chateaux.'
Mickey and Jane Finn put their five-bedroom, 6,200-square-foot home in Leesburg, Va., on the market in April, but already they've cut the price to $899,900 from $1.1 million. Now, they've decided to put it up for auction.
What's the hurry? Down the street in their leafy subdivision, two similar-sized houses are also on the market, and around the corner, five more have for-sale signs. The Finns, who paid $692,000 for the new house in 2002, recently retired and, with their two children grown, they're eager to move to a place...
