Proto punk
Proto-punk (or protopunk) is the rock music from the 1960s and early 1970s that presaged the punk rock movement, although they were not labelled as such until after the fact. The musicians were not originally associated with each other, coming from a variety of backgrounds and styles, but they anticipated many of punk's musical and thematic attributes. Proto-punk may also refer to rock acts from the mid-1960s deemed to be influential on later punk, particularly much garage rock.
Most musicians classified as proto-punk are rock performers of the 1960s and early-1970s, with garage rock/art rock bands the Velvet Underground, MC5 and the Stooges considered to be archetypal proto-punk artists, along with later glam rock band the New York Dolls.

ws769 necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 58 diseños de 18 diseñadores freelance.
We are an established technology solutions company with a new service offering called myGuru. The service is like a remote tech support service but instead of just fixing issues, we also provide technical advice and remote training for our customers. We are, in fact, their guru - available 24/7 with the click of a button. Our focus is high tech help wrapped in superior service.
Our primary target market is US women between the ages of 55 and 75 but we want to appeal to a broader base than that. Our audience will appreciate something progressive and simple with easy to read content and pleasing graphics.
Our web page should be progressive, using the latest web design techniques and simple - easy to absorb and understand. The page should emphasize our single click service (the user clicks an icon and a chat session is instantly started with a tech) but can also mention these other features:
1. Unlimited 24/7 access to your Guru
2. PC/Mac?Smartphone support
3. One click. Relax. Single click access to your Guru
4. Answers, advice and remote training
5. Extremely private - user has to give permission for guru to access PC
6. Strong customer focus with fast, polite service
This is a technology service but really, it's about people - helping people live better lives through technology. The classic example is a grandmother learning to use a web cam to video chat with her distant grandchildren. So, the web page should emphasize/feature people.
We are looking for something more graphically appealing with strong tag lines or bullet points. We want to draw the visitor in with good visual appeal and then we'll explain the details deeper in the site.
PLEASE NOTE: I have attached our new logo (from a screenshot) in PDF form (recently created here on 99 Designs). I will upload the .ai file when the designer uploads the file.
We need the web site's home page designed. We can take that look & feel and translate it into additional pages. Just use the normal nav items (about us, contact us, how it works, support) for now because we aren't 100% sure how many/which pages will be created.

Telemedicine involves the use of information technology and telecommunication to provide healthcare at a remote location. The primary concept of telemedicine is to negate the distance factor in providing life saving clinical healthcare. Telemedicine can be classified on the basic on technology and services used. Based on services, telemedicine can be divided into remote monitoring, store and forward (real-time) interactive services. Furthermore, based on the application, telemedicine is classified as Telecardiology, Teleconsultation, Teledermatology and Teleradiology. Telesurgery and home telehealth are not very popular in the BRIC region and are in the nascent stage.
To Read The Complete Report with TOC: http://www.marketresearchreports.biz/analysis/147872
The BRIC countries have a high proportion of population that suffers from diseases like diabetes and asthma. The BRIC telemedicine market is expected to grow with a CAGR of 15%. Another driving factor for the telemedicine market is the requirement of medical facilities in rural areas. Rural areas lack good medical facilities and hence the concept of telemedicine is very well accepted in the developing areas. The advent of high speed internet and telecommunication in these countries has made telemedicine possible and this is a factor for the continued growth of the market in these regions. The cost associated with telemedicine is often lower as compared to conventional healthcare and hence is a positive factor for the development of the market.
Though the cost of telemedicine is often lower, the infrastructure cost to provide telemedicine facility is often high. This high cost acts as a hindrance to the development of the market along with the lack of interest from patients and doctors restraints the growth of the market. There are still certain legal hassles in telemedicine, which have not yet been solved.
For All Latest Reports Kindly Visit: http://www.marketresearchreports.biz/latest
The opportunity lies in developing a knowledge sharing platform to enhance the scope for telemedicine market. Also the support of the government in promoting the telemedicine market would be crucial for its development. Increasing the awareness of patients about the advantages of telemedicine is crucial for sustained growth.
Some of the key players in the telemedicine market are Aerotel Medical Systems, Apollo Hospitals, IBM Healthcare and Lifesciences, Wipro, Manipal Hospital and others.

CLN Online and Craftrends are both reporting (and I'm hearing from upset CHA members) that there will be big changes to the CHA-Summer show in 2009. Those changes will start with the venue, which will move from the show's longtime home in Chicago to a new venue in Orlando. Also the show will take place on weekdays (Tuesday-Thursday) July 28th-30th instead of the traditional weekend date.
But perhaps the biggest – and most controversial – change of all is the addition of two days of consumer show dates following the three days of trade show. No details have supposedly been ironed out yet about exactly how this will work (whether exhibitors will be required to stay for the consumer show, whether retail sales will be required or allowed at the consumer event, etc).
So far, the overwhelming reaction I've seen and heard in various forums from those in the trade is negative, especially to the idea of the consumer show. Most of the complaints revolve around the extra expense and time seemingly being required of companies by the addition of the two consumer days, as well as concern that the consumer show will hurt area retailers.
CHA will be holding conference calls to get input and answer questions about the changes. The calls are scheduled for the following dates (note the first one is tomorrow):
- Friday, July 25th, 11 a.m.-Noon
- Friday, August 8th, Noon-1 p.m.
- Tuesday, August 12th, 3-4 p.m.
- Monday, August 25th, 2-3 p.m.
To participate in the conference calls, pre-registration is required (which is done on a first-come, first-served basis). This can be done by emailing Tara Smith (email@example.com) with your first and second time preferences. If no response email is received, call 201-835-1223.

The Train
Arthur Penn (Bonnie and Clyde, 1967) was originally slated to direct the film but was relieved of his command less than one week into filming by star Burt Lancaster, who was also one of the film's producers. Lancaster was concerned that Penn was neglecting the story's potential for action and suspense, and remedied the situation by calling in Frankenheimer, who had directed Lancaster in The Young Savages (1961), Birdman of Alcatraz (1962) and Seven Days in May (1964). Frankenheimer in turn discarded Penn's footage, brought in his own writers to overhaul the script, and ultimately delivered the WWII thriller Lancaster had hoped for.
Lancaster stars as Labiche, a railway inspector and member of the French Resistance, who is asked to somehow detain a train loaded with priceless paintings - national treasures by Gauguin, Degas, Cezanne, Renoir and others - confiscated by the occupying forces. This sets in motion a series of elaborate deceptions, hairbreadth chases and ironic twists that constitute The Train's intricate and satisfying plot.
Shot almost entirely on location in France, the production faced unexpected difficulties, especially in regards to the inclement weather in Normandy. "The Allies couldn't invade Normandy until June," Frankenheimer later recalled, "and we were trying to shoot this thing in September and October when the fog comes rolling in from the Channel." Eventually, the production was shut down until the following spring, allowing the crew to shoot interior scenes in Paris and to begin assembling a cut of the film. Once the weather improved, they knew exactly what they needed to finish the picture.
Aside from the weather, there were many other challenges involved in making The Train. To film the bombing of a railway yard, special effects supervisor Lee Zavitz spent six weeks planting dynamite charges beneath the tracks of an actual rail yard (which the French government was already planning to tear apart and renovate), for a scene that lasts only 50 seconds. According to Newsweek, this brief sequence incorporated 140 separate explosions, 3,000 pounds of TNT and 2,000 gallons of gasoline. No miniatures were used in The Train, a fact that is readily apparent when one views such sequences of carefully-orchestrated destruction that punctuate the film's tightly-wound narrative.
A fine example of the film's life-sized special effects is a collision of two steam locomotives, which was not as simple as it appears. The tracks of the approaching train were dismantled and re-laid below ground level so the impact would be more dramatic, causing the locomotives to destroy one another and tear apart the earth around them rather than bouncing in different directions.
One sequence that proved to be unexpectedly complicated was the derailing of a slow-moving locomotive. Instead of approaching at the planned speed of seven miles per hour, the driver accidentally tripled the speed. As a result, the train left the rails and proceeded to destroy every camera in its path....except one. No crew members were injured, six cameras were demolished, and the sole surviving camera provided a shot better than anything Frankenheimer had anticipated: a close-up view of the catastrophe, concluding with one steel wheel spinning mere inches from the lens of the camera.
When a cut of the film was screened for United Artists executives, the producers were asked to add one more action sequence. Anticipating this request, Frankenheimer already had a scene in mind and, for an additional $500,000 (approximately $5 million by contemporary filmmaking standards) willingly provided it. This scene, of the train being strafed by a British Spitfire, racing toward the safety of a mountain tunnel, proved almost fatal to Frankenheimer and some of the crew. Filming from a helicopter just ahead of the train, the helicopter accidentally pulled into the path of the Spitfire as it sped toward the mountainside. "The Spitfire was roaring toward us at 300 miles an hour," Frankenheimer remembers, "I could see the pilot's face and he looked as terrified as I felt. He missed us by ten feet... My wife was watching on the ground, and she fainted."
Although the sequence is not closely tied to the rest of the plot, it is a masterful achievement of heightened and prolonged suspense that helped solidify The Train's reputation as one of the best action films of the 1960s.

Philips cd-i funky/unusual packaging
>> Friday, July 19, 2013
A collection of cd-i's which were released in different packaging from the jewel case or the early release boxes.
I only got this last week, having been searching for it. I think this is so cool - The Wines of France in authentic wooden wine type packaging. This actually features a game if you search for it - when the butler appears, click on the plate and then on the dice. The object of the game is to guess which wines would go with a particular type of meal, from multiple choice options. I'm no wine buff - in fact I don't drink it - but against my mate I ended up guessing 8/10 - how did that happen?
Another great release from our friends in France. This comes in a book type packaging. The game features superb graphics and you must report on news events, by recording events and clues. A bit like Voyeur, but the only problem is that it tests my French language skills to their limits, and therefore I struggle to understand much of it. Great fun though.
Rear of the 'book' type packaging on Les Guignols de L'Info. For those that remember 'Spitting Image', this is the French equivalent of that.
This is a rarity. I didn't know it existed until last year, when I bought several Dutch cd-i magazines. There are 4 discs included, in folding packaging. They are designed for younger Dutch children learning English.
The 4 discs, in nice colourful packaging. Noah's Ark, Mother Goose, All the fun of the fair and Emperor's New Clothes.
The only cd-i game to be released in DVD style packaging - Frog Feast - in 2007. Made by Charles Doty and published by Oldergames.com. This is a simple but very entertaining game, and my friends always request this when they come round for a cd-i session! Also can be played 1 player but not nearly as fun as competing against your friends to catch the flies!
Rear cover to Frog Feast. An old friend of mine known as Omegalfa did a great review of this game for his website 'le monde du cdi' now sadly defunct. He is mentioned in the credits, along with Devin (from the Blackmoon project) and Bas (interactive dreams website). Can't believe it will be 6 years ago as I write that this game was released. More were promised from Charles, but unfortunately never saw a release (and that is very much the story of cd-i).
[Thanks, Philips CD-i Zone]

Through our Fresh New Spaces Group today I found flickr member Liz and Mabel's steal of a mid-century sleeper sofa, found on craigslist for $65:
By the way, love the outfit, the pooch, and that aqua mini-gourd lamp too!
I absolutely love this lady's smashing style! After perusing the Liz and Mabel flickr sets I found Mabel's House blog, and I am absolutely smitten with her trips, photography, entertaining and fresh writing. Also, this woman has got a real eye for transforming forgotten furniture pieces with colorful paint. For example, I love this big blue mirror project:
I love the pops of turquoise all over this home. Here's one more, check out the rest here:

Olympian McKayla Maroney is about as well known for her endlessly memed unimpressed smirk as she is for her powerhouse performance on the vault.
So will she be recognizable wearing a smile in a new advertising campaign this month for Dr Pepper Snapple Group?
The 17-year-old gymnast is the new face for the company's collection of 10-calorie sodas, known as Ten. The endorsement deal covers Ten beverages for brands such as 7Up, A&W, Sunkist, Canada Dry and RC.
Quiz: How well do you know fast food?
Advertisements featuring Maroney launch this month.
The teen became an Internet darling this summer after winning the silver medal in the Olympic women's vault competition. A photo of her with her arms folded, a glowering and twisted grimace on her face, began making the rounds with the tagline "McKayla is not impressed."
In November, she mugged for the cameras with President Obama making the same pose.
The Ten line of sodas is landing at an opportune time. The soft drink industry is increasingly conscious of calorie counts, with Coca-Cola addressing obesity in a television ad campaign, PepsiCo posting health information on vending machines and government officials mulling a New York-style ban on large sugary beverages.
An NYC-style sugary-soda ban in D.C.?

Encarnacion powers Blue Jays past Braves
Toronto, ON – Edwin Encarnacion belted a three-run homer and finished with five RBI, leading the Toronto Blue Jays in a 9-3 rout of the Atlanta Braves at Rogers Centre.
Colby Rasmus and J.P. Arencibia each hit two-run homers for the Blue Jays, who have won nine of their last 14 games.
Mark Buehrle (2-3) held the Braves to a run on five hits over six solid innings. The veteran left-hander walked two and struck out six, none bigger than Dan Uggla staring at strike three with two runners in scoring position to end the sixth.
Toronto only led 4-1 at the time, but blasts by Arencibia and Encarnacion blew the game open.
Evan Gattis launched a two-run homer in the eighth for Atlanta, which has lost two straight on the heels of an eight-game winning streak. Tim Hudson (4-4) was tagged for six runs on eight hits and two walks in six frames.
"It was just not a very good night," Hudson admitted. "A night where I was battling a little bit with my delivery. My pitches weren't very crisp."
These teams will play again in Toronto before traveling to Atlanta to close out this home-and-home interleague set on Wednesday and Thursday.
Rasmus took Hudson deep to right field in the second, and Encarnacion plated a pair with a single in the next inning.
The Braves got on the board in the fifth when Andrelton Simmons blooped a two- out single to center to score Chris Johnson, who had doubled.
After Buehrle pitched out of the aforementioned jam, Arencibia followed a leadoff walk in the home sixth with a drive over the wall in left-center.
Cory Rasmus, the younger brother of Colby, gave up a ground-rule double to Melky Cabrera to begin the seventh and then walked Jose Bautista before serving up Encarnacion's home run to left. Colby Rasmus doubled off his sibling later in the inning.
"It was still awesome," Cory Rasmus said about pitching to his brother. "Obviously the outcome was the most important part, but it was a lot of fun."
Game Notes
Toronto third baseman Brett Lawrie left in the sixth after spraining his left ankle on a stolen base ... The Braves have now dropped nine of 11 in Toronto.

An evening of fun for the many people in merry old England was a night at the Globe Theatre. Peasants and princes alike gathered to share in the raucous festivities of a Shakespearean masterpiece. And raucous it was — with boos and cheers, the groundlings packed into the pit with tickets priced at a penny a piece, and the actors addressing the audience every step of the way.

MADRID (Reuters) - Spanish police arrested two men and seized the contents of a truck bound for Iran loaded with materials destined for use in the Islamic state's nuclear program, the Interior Ministry said on Friday.
The truck, intercepted on a motorway in northern Spain early on Wednesday, was carrying highly corrosion-resistant valves, the ministry said in a statement.
Police were examining computer databases and documents at Fluval Spain, the company where the two arrested men worked, a ministry spokesman said.
"The company, registered in the Basque Country, used false companies in the United Arab Emirates for the deliveries, channeling cash through banks in other countries," the ministry statement said.
The company had commercial links with Iranian firms that featured on lists drawn up by the European Union as having connections with Tehran's nuclear program, the ministry said.
No-one at the company could be reached for comment.
The European Union has banned the sale of such material to Iran, which denies Western accusations it is seeking to develop a capability to make nuclear weapons. Tehran says its atomic program is for civilian energy purposes.
World powers are searching for a diplomatic solution to a decade-old standoff over the nuclear program to avert the threat of a Middle East war.

This project is fairly far down my to-do list, but I'm planning to incorporate it into my build of the CANary project. Reprogramming the chip on the stock board can be ruled out, since if we could even get a blank part it would be impossible to reverse-engineer if the code protection bits are set, might interfere with other functions of the module, and anyway would not provide a user-configurable solution.
I opened up the VSP box and found the pinout marked clearly on the PCB. There are actually two speakers, back and front, both 4-ohm types, coming directly back to the VSP box. My preferred plan is to insert a new circuit inline with the cable going to the VSP box and use a relay to switch the speaker to a new audio amplifier. Generated sound will come from the mbed microprocessor in the CANary module. Then we have full control over the software, can play WAV and MP3 files off an SD card, select the sound on the fly, and even link it to CAN bus events like gear shifts and vehicle speed.
If anyone with the skills to do this gets to it before me, I'd love to see how it goes and help out. It'll be July at the earliest before I get to it. Still need to assembly my JuiceBox, fix my OpenEVSE, and, oh yeah, finish graduate school.

My Open House last Friday was absolutely amazing! No photo's I'm afraid as I was so busy demonstrating and chatting all day. There was a constant stream of customers through the door and both Mum and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
Yesterday morning was card class and we made another of the acetate boxes with cards.
I'd seen a photo on Pinterest which I took inspiriation from. I can't for the life of me find it now and I've looked through this ladies blog to almost and year and still I can't find it. I must give credit to Artistic Avenger as the front card is a complete case of hers.
The black and cream theme looks so classy and the flocked paper from Mocha Morning Speciality paper really is absolutely stunning. There's a mix of stamp sets on these but the main one is 'Creative Elements'. The black card has a black heat embossed design on it along with the black butterfly, and the flower on the other card is the Blossom Party Die which can be found in the MINI catalogue. My love affair with the Antique brads will never fade either. I'm using them on most of my projects at the moment and my customers are loving them too.
It's another full house at Card Class tonight making this!
(The acetate boxes I've had for ages which I bought from someone who was doing a share, so I'm sorry I can't provide info on where to get them.)
See ya soon!

Praise for A Day with a Perfect Stranger
"Don't let David Gregory's simple writing style fool you: the message shared throughout A Day with a Perfect Stranger is profound and the questions he raises are life changing."
–Liz Curtis Higgs, best-selling author of Bad Girls of the Bible
"Fasten your seatbelt for another marvelously divine encounter with the Perfect Stranger! Once again, Gregory masterfully demonstrates just how passionately and intimately our God loves each one of us. If you are looking for an encouraging faith encounter, the Perfect Stranger books are the most palatable and powerful tools of our day."
–Shannon Ethridge, best-selling author of Every Woman's Battle and Every Woman's Marriage
"While I liked Dinner with a Perfect Stranger very much, I loved A Day with a Perfect Stranger. This book has the potential to make people think about what drives them, what keeps them from God, and what will ultimately fulfill them. In a feelings-based and satisfaction-driven society, this is an invaluable tool. People are hungering for the answers to questions Mattie gets to ask. I can't wait to hand it out to friends who do not yet know the Stranger in their midst."
–Lisa Tawn Bergren, best-selling author of The Begotten
"Sometimes the simplest books can have the most profound influence, and David Gregory has done such a wonderful job capturing my imagination. Over and over as I read A Day with a Perfect Stranger I kept asking myself, what would I say if I ever sipped lattes with Jesus? And at the end of the book, I realized I have that opportunity every day. He's not only listening, but He's speaking, too. Anyone who enjoyed Dinner with a Perfect Stranger will love the sequel."
–Rene Gutteridge, best-selling author of BOO and The Splitting Storm

The Jeff Ireland press conference right here
As you know, Jeff Ireland spoke to the media today. It'll be the last time he speaks to the media until free agency.
This is everything he said:
(On if having so many picks in the draft changes his approach to the combine) – "It doesn't change too much, we brought every single person in the building. So we have eyes on every single player at the combine, we brought 55 personnel and coaches to the Combine, so we've got a lot of eyes on a lot of different guys so it really doesn't change the process. We are trying to prioritize who we are looking at, what we are looking at, this is an information gathering process. No firm decisions are made during this time period, we are just gathering all the information in and then we will start analyzing it as the information comes in."
(On philosophy with the 12th pick, fill a need or best player available, in the 2013 Draft) - "Its early in the process, but we are going to try to, that's obviously the first goal you would like to take the best player available, but it depends on what you do in free agency, it depends on some of your needs and depends on what's there when you take the pick."
(On taking a player when 'public perception' may think it's a reach) – "Well if history repeats itself, I really don't care what the public perception is. I care about what my scouts say and what my eyes are telling me. So we have our own evaluations that we go into and sometimes you have a need there, sometimes you have the grade and they have to marry to each other when they do you take the player."
(On if this a do or die or make or break off season for the Dolphins) – "I would probably say neither of those, I think it's a very, very important time period for this off-season. We have put a lot into getting into this position, so obviously we are in a position by design and so we plan to use some of the money and plan to draft the best players available if we can and try to address some of the needs and musts that we have on our football team."
(On how important it is to resign Brian Hartline) – "Well in terms of our free agents, were going to address every player that is a free agent. As it relates to anyone in particular, I am not going to discuss how our negotiations are going at this point, but it is important to get the guys that we are trying to get back, it's important to get those guys done certainly before the (March) 8th, no doubt about it."
(On his opinion of the franchise tag and the likelihood of the team using it in 2013) – "Well it's a resource certainly, and you have to evaluate how negotiations are going with certain particular players, but there are a lot of things that go into the franchise tag. A lot of different opinions, a lot of different aspects of when you use it when you don't use it, why you use it. So in terms of this year, there is certainly a likelihood that we could use it, but on particular who we haven't made that decision yet."
(On how much stock is put into what a player does at the Combine) –"I always say that if you're doing your job your making decisions based on what they do when they have pads on and so we try to put a grade on them at the end of December and maybe at the end of February that we just got meeting on and that doesn't change when you get the results from here you just try to analyze what they are. Certainly the higher draft choices you want the ability on the field to marry to the ability in shorts. And certainly the later draft choices in my opinion you are looking for upside so you are looking for very good athletes and some of the things like that, so you are looking for more athletic ability at least that is what I am looking for."
(On why none of the Dolphins free agents are signed yet) – "Well we are going through a process, I don't think that we had to get them done on the first of January or there was no date, right now the date that I have in my head is March 9th is to get those guys done before they get into that period. So we have taken on the evaluation of our coaching staff we have been very thorough in that process, finding out what fits and when you have as many of them as we do you just can't make knee jerk reactions on certain guys and getting certain guys signed. So we have taken a very thorough evaluation, we have met on it many times so this is the time period we are starting to talk to them and get some things done."
(On if he learned anything new about Joe Philbin that he didn't know during the hiring process) – "Not really, Joe and I kind of hit it off from the beginning. He is very thorough, he doesn't get too high, he doesn't get too low. A very highly organized, got a great thought process involved, so all those things I knew going into his first year and it's more enhanced now that we have got better communication and we have spent more time together. I think he knows what I am about and I know a little bit more of what he is about so it has been a very good marriage at this point."
(On if he thinks that he has a mainstay at quarterback in Ryan Tannehill) – "As I have said before, Ryan has got 35, 36 games under his belt as starting quarterback combined from a college and pro career and you would normally like to have 35 games under your belt as a graduating senior, so I think that there is a bunch of upside left in Ryan's potential and I like what I see so far. I love his intangible makeup, I love his athletic skill set. We have a long way to go, he knows that, but he can get a lot better, I am very confident in that."
(On how wide he sees the gap between the top team and the rest of the division) –"There is a gap, certainly they have won the division quite a bit, so we have to close that gap. To say that, I think it's a five game gap right now in wins and losses, so that's where the gap is. So we have to close that gap and we plan to do our best job, put our best foot forward getting that done this off-season. Now whether we can completely close the gap, we have to get back on the field and close the gap on the field, it doesn't make a lot of sense to talk about it right now."
(On what he got out of the Hard Knocks experience and if he would do it again) – "We sat and talked about whether or not we were going to do it or not and Joe I think made the famous statement 'I don't think any games are going to be won by doing it and I don't think any games are going to be lost by doing it', and I still feel the same way. It was a good experience, those guys are extremely professional people. The days go by and you really don't really know that they are there, other than the fact that the guy is sitting there with a mic as soon as I open my door in my office. I enjoyed it, it was good exposure for our franchise and again NFL Films and Hard Knocks they do an outstanding job."
(On using Ryan Tannehill mobility more going forward) – "You are asking the wrong guy, my title is General Manager not Head Coach, so I know he did some of that in college, he had some long runs. Again, I like his athletic skill set, that is one of the reasons we drafted him as high as we did. But how we use him and things like that, that is going to be up to (offensive coordinator) Mike (Sherman) and Joe (Philbin)."
(On his theory or philosophy on how he approaches 'big-ticket' free agents as opposed to the less expensive) –"You are always looking for value, and certainly to get production you hope that matches the value for what you are going to get. Everybody wants a bargain, and free agency, if you are going to play in free agency there are not just a ton of bargains out there especially if you are playing at the top of the market. So you just have to feel confident that what you are paying for is what you are getting, and that has always been a philosophy of mine is that the value and the production, the value and the ability and the evaluation, they match and that you are not overpaying for a lesser talented player."
(On how he compares this year's draft to past years in terms of difference makers) – "I think there are some difference makers, difference makers I am sure you are referring to maybe some of the skill positions players, but I look at it maybe a little bit differently. I look at difference makers in the offensive line, maybe defensive line, maybe there is a safety out there, so maybe your vision of a difference maker may not be the same. I think there is good depth in the draft, I think in our last meeting we talked about 250 players that we liked a lot, so I think that there is pretty good depth."
(On how he brings the coaches into a process that he has been working at for months following the end of the season) – "I have always used the saying, 'scouts help you bring the information to the bridge and without the coaches you can't cross the bridge. So you have to have both involved in this evaluation, period. So again like said we brought our entire coaching staff here. This is the first time that as General Manager I brought every single person. Our building is empty right now so, but again, it's a very critical period for us. I wanted all eyes on all the players and the mental aspect of the scheme fit is important to us and so we have our coaches talk football with them so we get them involved in that regard. I think it's a very important aspect of things. In terms of the final decision, I mean that's a collective, it's a collective process. Joe and the coordinator and position coach on that particular player, maybe. We're going to sit down. We're going to watch them together. If we don't see it eye to eye then we'll sit down and we'll watch the tape together and in trying to get that process right."
(On if there is any friction between the scouts and the coaches) - "I've never really been involved with a lot of friction. We're all professionals. The scouts, we work in professional football and I expect my scouts and I expect my coaches to be professionals in their regard. No we live in a world where we're paid for an opinion and so you're going to have an opinion and you're going to have an opinion and they don't always mesh, they don't always marry. You like it when they do. Quite frankly I like when they don't. But it creates more debate involved in that and debate is problem solving and that's ultimately what the head coach and the GM are interested in, charged with as solving problems."
(On the new aptitude test that is being administered) -"I really don't know a whole lot about it and they have not given us a lot of information about it, so they're just going to give us the results and how its being tested. I'm sure it's early and new and so we're going to get into it a little bit more."
(On what the Wonderlic was not providing) -"It's been used quite a bit and I think there's maybe some concern that maybe people outside the combine are getting a hold of it possibly."
(On CBA and the salary cap roll over) - "Well we've got good cap space so I like it. So right now I do anyway. I think that it's been a positive thing for us. Being able to, what you don't spend (is that what you're talking about. What you don't spend in one year you can roll back over the next year?) I think it's good because certain things, you know, certain players you're trying to get done maybe in the current year, you can't get that person done so you're going to use that money to do him next year. So you don't want that money to go away. You want to be able to use that process. And now with the cap not going up is, maybe the 7% and I think teams need all the dollars."
(On if there is a percentage that he has in mind for his current free agents as well as going after other free agents) - "I haven't necessarily look at from a percentage stand point. We know the guys we want back on our team and we know the guys that we're going to potentially go after in the market so we'll maybe analyze it, maybe a little bit different than that. Right now I think the plan is, it's a strong plan to try to do a little bit of both and we'll see where it goes from there."
(On teams taking a chance on a talented player with character questions) – "Well character and makeup, I've talked a lot about it. Always talked a lot about it, it's been part of my philosophy since I was in Dallas. I certainly like guys that are highly competitive, that can learn. They're dependable. Highly passionate about football. So that's always going to be a part of my process of player procurement process and Joe certainly wants those dependable guys in the locker room. Look, we're not, there's going to be guys on our football team that are going to make mistakes and we're aware of that. You know moving forward those decisions that were in the past, those weren't all just character. There were some other things involved that which I'm not going to get into. But I'm proud of the team that we've assembled. I've got a great, strong locker room. I think that's, you it's youthful, and I think that gives you the best opportunity when you have a good locker room, with good chemistry to continue to grow as a group."
(On how important it is to bring back players from a continuity standpoint) - "Well I think it's important to bring back key members of it. Again, it's going to be their choice too. Well they want to come back but it's a process involved. And we're going to try to bring back the guys that we feel like are necessary to bring back to continue moving in the right direction."
(On if he looks at what guys do with their Twitter feeds) - "It's something new, for sure. And I'm not very good at it but I know I have guys on my staff that are very good at it and they follow it and they look at it. I don't know how much of the evaluation process that it's taking in. Again it's more information in what they're saying and maybe there's a sense of maturity that goes along with being a heavy twitterer, is that right language, heavy twitterer. My guys on my staff are very good at it. They follow a lot of college athletes and I think it's going to be a little bit bigger process as we move forward."
(On when he started putting more emphasis on Twitter and Social Media) - "Might have been in the last two years for sure that we spent some time talking about it but more or less it's on the individual scout to really to grind in to what they're saying and you know we don't actually pull up their twitter page or anything in a meeting aspect but the individual scout or the national scout or may be even the college director may bring a snippet of information to the process."
(On if there's an obligation to sign a big name, high priced free agent) - "You know we're just trying to help our football team move in the right direction. I don't really feel the pressure there has to be a name guy. If that particular player we thinks going to help our football team move forward and take a big step then if he has a big name, great. If he helps our football team that's our first and foremost primary reason why we're signing the player."
(On the 3 day window going to change what he does as a team) - "You know I don't exactly how it's going to change things. I don't know that there's going to be a lot done in the first 24 hours of that time period. That's just a guess. Some of the bulk of what we can get done needs to happen before that time and so that's what we're trying to get done and then that 3 day window is going to be, it's obviously going to be competitive because of that openness of negotiating. So but exactly how it's going to change things I'm not exactly sure yet."
(On if the first day of the negotiating period is now replacing the first day of free agency) - "Yeah, you could look at it that way. I mean, you know, you can now exchange papers but you can't bring the player in. But then there's three days of that. So whatever you give to an agent in the first 24 hours you've got 48 hours left to continue doing your work. So, it's a sketchy."
(On if there is a role for Reggie Bush on this team) - "Certainly, certainly, certainly would. You'd love to have his skill set on the football team. I mean Reggie has a unique set of skill sets. He's been a receiver, he's been a primary running back. So I definitely see a role for that type of skill set."
(On if it's realistic for Reggie Bush to be an every down back on this team) - "Again, you're asking the wrong guy for that. That's a coaching question."
(On him having to make the contract commitment) -"Yes. Absolutely. So we know again, we'll just have to see how things go. We've got a couple of more days of talking to our own guys and we'll see how that goes."
(On Jake Long saying it's up to the Dolphins now if he would be back) - "Well, you know we've talked with Jake. We've talked with his representative as well. We've made our desire to have him back on this football team known. But that's a tricky one as I said at the Senior Bowl. There's a lot of different things that normally you don't have in that particular case. Some of the details I don't really want to get into, to be honest with you but there's just a complicated negotiation. But, you know, so we'll have to see how things go as well. I'd love to have it back. He's been a pillar for our football team since the day he step on campus and I don't see that thing changing either if he get him back."
(On Jake Long's injury history playing a factor in whether he comes back) - "No. It's just something that we look at. I don't want to say it's issue. I''s something you look at. We have more intimate knowledge of his health than probably anybody else so it's something that we're aware of. And not something we have to get over or it's an issue but something we know about."
(On the tight end position and how his evaluation of the position has changed) - "No it goes back to what's being played in college and that position that's not primarily playing a traditional on the line of scrimmage, hand in the dirt, wide tight end as we would call it. You got a lot of detached receiver types that fit a tight end body type and so and then then when you play a system that uses a Y in the hand traditional tight end you're trying to sometimes project that player and projection in business is difficult. But you don't have to project the aspect of him being in the slot and running down the middle of the field and maybe getting open from different prospective, but you just have to make sure that player that you're drafting from the college standpoint, where he plays, marries to the scheme that you're playing you scheme. Basically."
(On the franchise tag and continuity at cornerback) -"Well I think there's several players that are our current free agents that would be an option for the tag. I have not ruled out Sean (Smith) as being an option there. But again, we've got several more days left before we have to make that decision. Pretty good idea where we're going with it but things could change daily, hourly. Continuity at the cornerback position always something you're looking for. So certainly Sean's an option and maybe if we do use the tag, you know that's for continuity reasons and then obviously you know having him back on the team would be certainly I would like to do as well."
(On how important is having Randy Starks back) - "Well it's very important to have Randy back if we could get it done. I'm not really worried about where we're playing (Jared) Odrick or the fact of the matter is we have a very good defensive line and keeping that in tack is a focus of mine. It's a strength, continue to build the strength is a focus of mine. I don't want to let that strength become just average. I like where it's at and keeping that a main stay is important to me."
(On how much he would like to have Matt Moore back) - "Well again Matt, there's a lot of reasons why you'd want Matt back on your football team. Matt's been an outstanding teammate. Been a good mentor for Ryan. He was excellent when Chad (Henne) and him were in the room last year. So there's a lot of things of why you would want him back in the football team. So, again, like every other free agent we've talked about there's a process in place and you know they are all great character guys and it's a business decision we have some tough decisions to make but again, I wish I could have them all back but I'm going to be disappointed and maybe possibly one of those guys are going to be disappointed if this doesn't get done."
(On bringing back experienced corners and how it affects the Sean Smith negotiations) - "We have some guys, I don't know where you see a leverage or not, we have a guy that was injured and two guys that were injured that ended up one didn't finish the season and one we end of claiming, Dimitri (Patterson). So Sean started almost every single game he's been since 2008. Having that continuity back with Sean is important but we'll have to see how that thing goes."
(On talks if talks with Sean Smith have been optimistic) - "I guess optimistic. We had a meeting the other day and I left it optimistic, but, still a long way to go with that one."

We've had a couple of these in the last few weeks, and we're having another one again tonight. So if you're in New York and you're looking to hang out with us to watch the Ravens-Jaguars game, come meet up. (Though if enough of you would rather watch Game 5 of the World Series, we'll do that instead. We're not fussy.)
The Place: Upstairs at Professor Thom's, 219 2nd Avenue, NYC, between 13th and 14th streets
The Time: 7:30 until the game(s) end(s)
As with our other watch parties, this is no freeloader's function, so please bear in mind that it is a cash bar. Just say you're there for the Deadspin thing and head upstairs. There will be drink specials, and you're free to order food off the menu. Should be a swell time. See you there? Hope so.

KLM CO₂ Reduction Roadmap
We feel it is important to take responsibility, being one of the bigger players in the aviation industry. That is why we have a CO₂ Reduction Roadmap, a plan that combines the available solutions of today with innovative developments for tomorrow. Our current goal is to reduce the CO₂ per passenger with 20% by 2020 (in comparison to 2011). By the end of 2017 we had already reduced our CO₂ with 16%.
Read more about the CO₂ Reduction Roadmap.
On top of our own CO₂ reduction investments, we know that passengers want to play their own active role in reducing their environmental footprint. That's why we've initiated a compensation service in 2008 called CO2ZERO; with a small contribution you can make your flight CO₂ neutral. By using this service you invest in CO₂ reduction projects with the Gold Standard for the Global Goals label. Besides reducing CO₂, these projects also promote local sustainable development.Check out the actual calculation per destination (only available in English).
These calculations are made based on the type of aircraft, the distance flown and the historical load factor of a specific flight. Our CO2ZERO service is quite simply the easiest and most effective way to fly CO₂ neutral. Easily compensate the CO₂ emissions of your flights online, when booking or via My Trip.
Verification of the emission data and the methodology for calculating carbon emissions is done by KPMG Sustainability.Download KPMG's declaration or the description of their calculation method.

Through the decades we've continuously challenged the norm and striven to break the boundaries in shoe technology – from our pioneering arch supports at the beginning of the 20th century to the first ever ripple-soled running shoe in the '60s. And for kids, New Balance is no different, which is why the same detailed craftmanship goes into our young range as it does to our adults'.
