Chicago Bulls fires Fred Hoiberg
Hoiberg became the head coach in Chicago on June 2, 2015 after five seasons as the coach at Iowa State. Hoiberg had a 115-155 win-loss card in his shortened four-year coaching stint with the Bulls. Hoiberg had an interesting start to his coaching career with Chicago when they hired him in 2015, as he battled it out with the veterans on the team at the time. (more...)
Can Kohli go past another Sachin Tendulkar record in Australia?
The caveat to the approach of bowling full - and it is a significant one - is that it leaves Australia's bowlers open to the risk of leaking runs; Kohli is brutal in punishing balls that stray a fraction onto his pads. I am usually pretty quiet when I am bowling". Kohli has played eight Tests in Australia , scored nearly 1000 runs and produced three centuries in Adelaide , but is yet to triumph. (more...)
Kareem Hunt reportedly goes unclaimed on waivers, now a free agent
One of those suspects, according to the report, was identified as another former Chief: George Atkinson. The Chiefs have been asked for comment by FanSided, but no response has come yet. It was the obvious answer, with Eagles head coach Doug Pederson already having said that "there's no place" for Hunt's actions. After all, it's been only less than a week since a surveillance video showing Hunt kicking and shoving a woman at a Cleveland hotel back in February surfaced online to put the ... (more...)
Georgia Just Got Completely Screwed by the College Football Playoff Committee
When they play again for a spot in the national championship game, there will be no concerns about the weather. While Notre Dame is the first independent team to make the playoff, the Irish went undefeated with 10 wins over Power Five teams. (more...)
George HW Bush's Service Dog Sully Pictured By Coffin
Former President George H.W. Bush is remembered before the Pittsburgh Steelers play the San Diego Chargers at Heinz Field, Pittsburgh, PA, Dec 2, 2018.

Bill Belichick tells Adam Thielen to shut the f--- up
And in need of some extra looks from above, and already 0-for-1 on challenges, Patriots safety Patrick Chung suddenly fell to the turf with an apparent injury. If you just sit there in the same coverage and just sit back and let him know what you're in, he's going to kill you. I can't lose [my temper] like that. (more...)
Curry, Kerr look inward after Warriors' loss to Pistons
The blame can't be placed on Kevin Durant , who ranked second in points per game. Curry also committed a game-high seven turnovers, three more than any player on either team. The Warriors' coach was far more critical when it came to assessing his own performance in the defeat. "Tonight was probably a game that I can mark down as one of my worst performances as a coach, honestly". (more...)
Nick Saban Chokes Up Over Jalen Hurts' Performance in SEC Championship Game
We found a way to get it done today. "Hopefully by the time we start practicing again, Tua will be back on the field and ready to go", Saban said. "We worked so hard in the offseason - blood, sweat, and tears together". Big 12 champion Oklahoma (12-1) avenged its only loss by beating Texas, and Ohio State knocked off Northwestern in the Big Ten title game. He's quickly built Georgia into a national powerhouse, but he keeps coming up short against his ex-boss. (more...)

Arsenal triumph over Tottenham amid 'unacceptable' trouble in stands
Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang had set the Gunners on their way with the opener from the penalty spot in the 10th minute, but goals from Eric Dier and Harry Kane put Tottenham 2-1 up.

Warriors' Curry will return to face Pistons
On Saturday night, they dropped 75 points and on Monday night, they put in 78 points. No, there was no Stephen Curry and there was no Draymond Green but Kevin Durant went berserk, Kawhi Leonard played with his usual understated brilliance at both ends and Kyle Lowry couldn't - as the guy used to say - hit the broad side of the barn with a bass fiddle as a shooter but still made enough big plays and big shots to take control when control needed to be taken. (more...)
[Tweet] Piers Morgan Sends Message To Lucas Torreira After Arsenal Beat Tottenham
Mkhitaryan certainly wasn't terrible, but he was rather ineffective for Arsenal going forward and his lack of pace was seriously exposed on a number of occasions when his teammates looked to release him on the wing. Unai Emery's side have been a little disappointing since their 11-game winning streak came to an end last month, being held at home by Wolves, Sporting and Liverpool , and they will find it hard to contain Kane, Christian Eriksen, Dele Alli and Son-Hueng Min.

Atlanta United, Portland Timbers advance to MLS Cup
It was back and forth. Both he and the team have come a long way in a short time. Going to Kansas City and getting a win was always going to be tricky, but the Timbers scored three goals in the second half, including a insane strike from Sebastian Blanco , to move on. (more...)
David Villa to join Iniesta in Japan with Vissel Kobe
He captained New York City , playing 124 games with the side and scoring 80 goals. Iniesta signed for the ambitious Japanese club earlier this year, while former Germany worldwide Lukas Podolski arrived in 2017. "When I got the offer from Vissel I called Iniesta and my wife called Andres' wife". A great challenge awaits. He was also a key member of Spain's 2010 World Cup-winning team in South Africa.

Accenture has released their findings of their fourth Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) Insights survey 2013/2014, based on the views and challenges of over 580 senior marketing executives from 10 different industries, from around the world. Relevance reviews the survey results.
Relevance reviews Accenture's fourth CMO Insights Survey findings.
With the digital world advancing at such a rapid rate, businesses that have not yet immersed themselves online, are finding it extremely difficult to keep up and maintain brand awareness. Nowadays, most CMOs are starting to embrace digital channels, as they realise their increasing importance in aiding customer service delivery and satisfaction. New positions are being created imminently due to the new generation of digital natives that are emerging. CMOs believe that these positions will help their businesses deliver a customer experience, which is more integrated and relevant. With this is mind, how will marketing change over the next five years?
From this year's CMO Insights survey, 78% of senior marketers agree that marketing will undergo a fundamental change over the next five years, with 37% of them believing that 75% of the marketing budget will be spent on digital and 35% believing that 50% of the marketing budget will be spent on mobile alone. This will of course mean that Analytics will become a main factor in the business in order to track goals. Only 49% of mature CMOs believe that it is Important to transform their business in to a digital one, compared to 69% of emerging and new generation of CMOs.
At the moment high-growth companies are focusing more on the use of digital channels. For them, analytics has helped them to improve their marketing impact by 86%, marketing strategy by 84% and customer experience across all channels by 80%; compared to low growth companies whose results are 65%, 67% and 59% respectively. We can conclude that low-growth should be focusing on digital more to improve their results. High-Growth companies have obviously realised that digital is not only a distribution channel, but also a growing community.
Digital definitely offers a large and expanding field of opportunities for businesses. In order to achieve results, CMOs must now use digital as their main competence in order not to be left behind. By going digital, CMOs can use digital marketing initiatives to achieve desired outcomes and build relationships with their customers. This can be done by engaging, sharing and aiding them online. From this, a continuous and strong relationship can be built and help the brand in promoting a loyal and trustworthy service.
In conclusion, digital is definitely changing the way business works. With over 35% of senior marketing officers believing that 75% of marketing budgets will be spent on digital, and high-growth companies proving that digital is the key to success, it is time for other businesses and CMOs to follow. Technology is increasing at an extremely rapid rate, so it is essential for companies to at least start focusing on at least a couple of channels in order not to get left behind. How do you believe digital will change in five years?

Hakusan, Japan, November 18, 2013 – EIZO Corporation (TSE: 6737) announced the release of the RadiForce RX650, a 30-inch color LCD monitor ideal for multi-modality applications.
The 6 megapixel screen of the RadiForce RX650 provides enough space to display numerous applications at once, making it an effective replacement for a dual 3 megapixel monitor setup. In addition, medical professionals can conveniently view images side-by-side without the obtrusive bezels typically found in a multi-monitor environment. The monitor gives users full control of the layout on screen to streamline the radiology workflow.
The RadiForce RX650's new design saves more space than a typical multi-monitor setup to make the work area more efficient. In addition, the narrow space between the bezels and the screen also make cleaning easy.
To meet DICOM Part 14* international standards, EIZO carefully measures and sets each grayscale tone on the production line for the most consistent shadings possible. With the RadiForce RX650, both monochrome and color images can be viewed at individually optimized brightness levels and tones using EIZO's Hybrid Gamma feature to expand the usability of multi-modality applications.
An Integrated Front Sensor (IFS) housed within the front bezel performs convenient, hands-free quality control calibration. While in use, the sensor does not interfere with the viewing area to dramatically cut the workload and maintenance costs associated with maintaining monitor quality control.
The RadiForce RX650 comes equipped with an LED backlight that offers a significantly longer service life over a conventional CCFL backlight. This saves energy and cost while also achieving a high typical brightness of 400 cd/m2 for excellent visibility. In addition, the LED backlight is mercury-free for minimal impact on the environment.
EIZO will be demonstrating the RadiForce RX650 at Booth #1735 at the 2013 Radiological Society of North America (RSNA 2013) from December 1-5 at McCormick Place in Chicago, Illinois (USA).
The RadiForce RX650 will be available from March, 2014. Please contact the EIZO group company or distributor in your country for details.
EIZO is a leading global manufacturer of high-end visual display products. The image quality, long-term reliability, and innovative features of EIZO monitors make them the products of choice in many financial trading rooms, back offices, hospitals, air traffic control centers, and design studios throughout the world. Founded in 1968, EIZO is represented in over sixty countries by a network of group companies and exclusive distributors.
*DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) is an international network standard established by the American College of Radiation (ACR) and the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) for consistency between medical image data and manufacturer medical imaging devices. The standardized display function for grayscale images is specified in Part 14 of the contents.

Absolutely agree gents - that is why I'm now rooting for Neuville!
How many snow rallies has Neuville done? Very impressive pace and surprised me in a positive way!
I agree - great run from Neuville - would have liked Mikkelsen to have beaten Ogier, especially as Mikkelsen was in last years car!
Just back in Galway from Rally Sweden! Fantastic event - got 10 stages and visited Service twice, and saw Kris and Paul working hard at the Remote Service on Saturday. Two models caught my eye too! So came home with the Sordo Hyundai from Monte 2013 with the night lights, and the Blomgvist Saab from 1975 Swedish.......40 years ago!
Wow wow wow. Im embarassed to admit that despite being a very keen rally follower my experience is all arm chair based. But if i did go, i have 3 events id love to do - rally dorset/sunseeker which was all planned for last year but got pulled at the last minute because of pfaffing around by the msa, a warm weather event such as sardinia/corsica ( corsica is back next year as alsace cant get local funding) and a snow event in sweden. Very very jealous! Pricey to do Sweden?
If you want a good rally then do the Tour of Mull Paul. You won't be disappointed.
had a brill time in rally catalunya/spain last year, my first warm-weather rally..........class!!

The Mohammed Bin Rashid Programme for Leadership Development (MBRPLD), a programme designed to develop future national leaders, is planning to double the number of leadership events from 192 in 2008 to 492 for this year.
This is to help better equip Dubai's leaders during the crisis, Adel Al Shared, CEO of MBRPLD told Emirates Business.
"During recession, we need to train people to deal with recession. So we are doubling the budget," he said on the sidelines of thevirtual courtroom trial at the DIFC courts yesterday.
"We are going to run massive leadership programmes for the infrastructure sector, for the women and for the fresh graduates."
"We re training leaders and project managers in electricity, water, utilities and RTA. Certainly we don't give loans but we train leaders how to act fast and smart during crisis times," he added.
The virtual courtroom trial was a part of the newly developed "Creating the Future and Driving Change" module for MBRPLD's government leaders- level participants.
The new module offers a unique approach to learning as it conducts an in-depth examination of the Dubai Strategic Plan and the issue of sustainability in a simulated approach to the steps of litigation from the perspective of a courtroom trial.
MBRPLD has designed the new module to involve all 33 participants, who will assume various roles during the simulated courtroom proceedings. The activity aims to encourage participants to use their analytical abilities to discover innovative and efficient ways to drive the changes required for the sustainability and growth of Dubai.


What attracts birds to buildings?
Bird problems often are the result of an adequate food and water supply near the building which is targeted by the birds. The most common problem birds are federally unprotected pigeons, starlings, sparrows and other federally protected nuisance bird species including blackbirds, bluebirds, buzzards, chimney swifts, crows, ducks, doves, geese, grackles, ravens, seagulls, woodpeckers and turkey vultures.
Habitat modification including the removal of bird feeders, any standing water and the cutting down and removal of trees are at least 1/3 of the branches to break up the canopy of a tree.
We can use mesh wire and/or netting to help close off and exclude bird nesting sites.
We install all bird control ledge products including spikes, wire, coils and electric shock devices.
We can install bird frightening devices such as propane cannons, use distress calls, mylar-style tape and scare eye balloons.
We also do bird nest removal and remove birds from buildings.
Bird nest removal is required at times to reduce contamination to facility occupants.
Birds sometimes get inside buildings and are often unable or simply unwilling to leave. We have techniques which can coax birds to leave buildings. Once the birds have been removed, we can work with the occupant to arrive at a solution which will reduce or eliminate further bird entry. Common places we are asked to remove birds from structures include the big box stores, supermarket grocery stores and aircraft hangers. Ledge products prevent pigeons from roosting and nesting on buildings which causes damage to the structure and its systems not to mention numerous health hazards to the buildings occupants.

FIFA President
Blatter meets 'the voice of Hungarian football'
© Foto-net
Ninety-year-old Gyorgy Szepesi is not only Hungary's oldest active sports reporter but also a living legend, famously known as "the voice of Hungarian football." His show is still broadcast without fail every Wednesday at 19:05.
On 4 July 1954 he was a radio reporter for the FIFA World Cup™ Final between Hungary and West Germany in Bern. He cried at the end of the game and even today is able to explain why he, and many of his countrymen, are still reduced to tears when the topic of the famous 3-2 defeat is brought up.
Hungary used to be the dominant force in world football. They won the 1952 Men's Olympic Football Tournament in Helsinki and had Ferenc Puskas, the best player in the world at the time. Alongside him, Nandor Hidegkuti, Jozsef Bozsik and Sandor Kocsis were also geniuses on the ball. Nobody thought defeat to West Germany was possible.
On the face of it, the Final at Bern's Wankdorf Stadium was just like any other international match. However, the West Germans' 3-2 victory has become a symbol for the fate of both countries - a metaphor for the future of two nations with contrasting systems.
"Over, over, over! The game is over! Germany are world champions," screamed Herbert Zimmermann, the German radio commentator at the Final. By contrast, Szepesi did not say anything at all. Even today he finds it a difficult topic to talk about and has to pause to wipe a tear from his eye. According to Szepesi, FIFA President Joseph S. Blatter, who was 18 at the time, was cheering for Hungary to win.
He is a true gentleman and I'd like to both congratulate and thank him for everything he has done for football.
Blatter on Szepesi
That was just one of many anecdotes the FIFA President and Szepesi recalled when they met at the FIFA Congress on Thursday 24 May 2012 in Budapest. Blatter names Szepesi as one of the greatest figures in the football world and the pair's friendship, borne out of mutual respect, has stood the test of time.
Just yesterday, Szepesi informed his listeners about the history of the FIFA Congress. It is the third time the Hungarian capital has hosted the event, having previously done so in 1909 and 1930. In the past, the delegates arrived by boat along the Donau river. Nowadays they use much faster means of transport and Szepesi too has moved with the times.
The Hungarian edition of the football magazine 'Four Four Two' ran with Szepesi as its lead article, including pictures of the reporter with his friend Puskas, as well as the Pope, Pele and countless stories from his life.
Szepesi is a veritable football encyclopaedia. From 1975-1978 the polyglot worked as a journalist in Bonn, but "then the sports minister phoned me and said I should come home", said the nonagenarian, who had wanted to spend six years in Germany.
However, the Hungarian Football Association needed a new President and Szepesi accepted the post, which he held for eight years. It was during this time that he got to know FIFA President Blatter. From 1982-1995 Szepesi was a member of the FIFA Executive Committee and has been an honorary FIFA member since 16 June 1994.
Much to the delight of the President of world football's governing body, Szepesi will take part in the congress in Budapest. "It's always a pleasure to see Gyorgy Szepesi," said Blatter. "He is a true gentleman and I'd like to both congratulate and thank him for everything he has done for football."

Does your body take abstract thoughts literally?
Here's something that hypnotists and neurolinguistic programmers have been using for years: your body often reflects your abstract thoughts in physical form. For example, if you tell someone to imagine tilting back a picture of himself, then he tends to feel more relaxed — 'laid back'.


When every single kiddo in your family can be a model, this is what they look like! Y'all, I really can't even tell you how beautiful and well-behaved these littles are! They took amazing direction and would be perfect for print or television!


These are some striking new designs available for licensing from Victoria Johnson. They form part of the portfolio she'll be showing at Blue Print in New York next week. To create the designs she began playing with paint, then chopped up the various papers and used them to make individual flowers for a potential greetings card range. Victoria is represented by Jennifer Nelson Artists who will have lots to see for buyers and clients at this newly established New York show.


painting of the same name presented in the Spanish pavilion of the Universal Exhibition of Paris of 1937. Along with places such as Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Guernica is one of the most potent symbols of the horrors of modern warfare.
Yet, from the outset, the story of Guernica was clouded by propaganda, myth, counter-myth and blatant lies and for nearly forty years the destruction of Guernica by bombers was denied by Franco's Spanish Government. Until 2005 there was no known film archive showing the actual destruction of Guernica. Detailed research over the last five years has also revealed new testimonies and uncovered classified documents which put the story into its international context.
This film brings together unique film archive, eye witness accounts, dramatic reconstruction and CGI together with expert military analysis to tell the definitive story of what actually happened at Guernica and the political aftermath of one of the defining events of the last century.
In 1936 Civil War broke out in Spain. The Insurgents, led by General Franco and supported by Hitler and Mussolini quickly gained the upper hand over the Republican forces. The Spanish Republican Government appealed for support from the international community. The Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia and Mexico offered limited assistance but Britain and France's reaction was to broker the Non-Intervention Treaty where officially there would be no assistance to either side in the conflict.
The Basque country in the north of Spain had remained loyal to the Republican Government and was encircled by Franco's advancing troops. Despite the Non-Intervention Treaty Franco's forces had the military assistance of Germany and Italy which included Germany's state of the art Condor Aviation Legion. The Condor Legion had been created by Germany's Luftwaffe under Marshall Goering with the aim of developing new tactics in aerial warfare. The years since the First World War had seen major advances in aeronautical technology: Spain was to be the ideal testing ground for the tactics of war from the air.
April 26 1937 was market day in the town of Guernica – the symbolic capital of the Basque country and home of the tree of Guernica – the revered symbol of the Basque people. At 4.30 in the afternoon the first planes were spotted heading towards the town. A few minutes later they unleashed their bombs. Over the course of the next three hours wave upon wave of planes bombed Guernica. Over 30,000 kg of bombs were dropped on the town. The terrified civilians who fled were machine-gunned as they ran. The planes then returned with incendiary bombs to burn Guernica to the ground. From a scene of almost complete destruction there was perhaps one sign of hope – the sacred tree of Guernica remained un-scathed.
But this was a definitive historical moment: Guernica was distant from the front line – it was not a military target. For the first time it was civilians that were in the firing line. And there was a systematic element to the campaign with the first wave of bombs opening up the buildings for the incendiary bombs to do their work. This was the first chapter in a new type of warfare that was soon to terrorize the rest of the world.
By chance, a young British journalist, George Steer, was nearby in Bilbao at the time of the bombing. That same evening he drove out to Guernica. The next day he dispatched his story to The Times and the New York Times. His article sent shock-waves around the world. A military success now had the makings of a diplomatic catastrophe for the Franco forces. In a desperate attempt to counter the story, Franco's Press Office claimed that it was the retreating Republican forces that had fire-bombed the town. Over the following weeks there was an extraordinary propaganda battle with the British Government secretly fully aware of the facts yet unwilling to admit what had happened in order not to undermine its farcical stance on Non-Intervention.
Three days after the bombing of Guernica, the town fell in to Nationalist hands. They now had the upper hand in manipulating the evidence in Guernica and did everything they could to blame the destruction of the town on 'Red' and 'Basque Separatist' forces. Within two months Franco's forces had won the war in the Basque country. This made it easier still to disguise the truth of what had happened at Guernica. With the eventual victory of Franco in the Civil War in 1939 the door would be closed on any discussion about Guernica within Spain until Franco's death in 1975. But even in the year's after Franco's death the fledgling democracy was unwilling to confront the past.
It is really only in the last decade that the events of Guernica have been systematically examined within Spain. Outside of Spain the consequences of Non-Intervention have also been uncomfortable. The legacy of what had happened in Guernica and in Spain as a whole would soon cast its shadow over the rest of the world during the Second World War.
The Guernica Story tells the definitive story of Guernica using film archive, personal testimony, reconstruction and computer graphics as well as expert analysis. Part of the narrative is provided by the stories of key individuals who were intimately involved in the story, mainly the children who survived the bombing and George Steer – the British Journalist who was responsible for exposing the horrors of Guernica to the world, We also hear the story from the viewpoint of a German and Italian pilot who were involved in the operation.
Much of the drama of the actual bombing is brought to life by extensive reconstructions and CGI. Filming with one of the actual planes that were used in the attack – the Fiat-32, Dornier-17, Savoy Marchetti-79, Heinkel-111, Messerschmitt- BF109 and Junker-52, we also look at the advances in technology that made the nightmare of Guernica a reality.
A unique archive film has come to light in the past year. The film was shot in Guernica on the day of the bombing and then sent to France for safety. With the fall of the Basque country in to Franco's hands the film remained in France until the start of the Second World War. With the events of Guernica still being denied by Franco and Hitler the film was confiscated by the Germans and taken to Berlin. At the end of the Second World War it was commandeered by the Soviets who have kept it in their vaults without realizing its historical significance.
Finally, the film examines the propaganda war that ensued after the bombing. Extraordinary colour archive reveals the propaganda war that was launched by the Franco forces to 'prove' that it was the retreating Reds that had destroyed the town. Despite the horrors of the bombing, the number of fatalities – less than 200 – was not nearly as high as originally mooted. But the importance of Guernica goes far beyond the number of deaths. For the most important victim of Guernica was the age of innocence – as the ensuing World War was soon to show.

BRAVE schoolgirl Alex Turner has beaten cancer, and now she is vowing to carry on fundraising to help other youngsters with the disease.
The 15-year-old, of Westoe Road, South Shields, was diagnosed with laryngeal cancer, an uncommon type of the disease affecting her voicebox, in October last year.
But after having radiotherapy and chemotherapy to fight the disease, there are now no signs of the tumour that threatened Alex's life.
Her dad, Mark Purvis, said: "She still needs to go for check-ups every month, but there are no signs of the tumour at all now.
When she was first diagnosed, Alex vowed to raise £50,000 for the Teenage Cancer Trust to help other youngsters battling the disease.
She has so far amassed about £34,000, but she has promised to carry on and achieve her target.
After that, Alex has plans to start her own charity to offer financial support to families whose children are going through cancer treatment.
Mark added: "Alex wants to help support families financially by helping to pay bills when parents are missing work while their children are in hospital.
"We're over the moon about it, and, of course, me and her mam, Joanne, and the rest of the family will help her out.
We're just absolutely over the moon. We feel like all our Christmases have come at once.
Alex's fundraising was given a recent boost by offshore oil and gas company OGN Group's donation of £1,618.

Which Jonas Brother Is Most Well Endowed? Nick's Face Says It All
Touché, Nick.
by Matthew Tharrett 9/30/2016
Nick Jonas returned to Watch What Happens Live last night and played Plead the Fifth for the second time in his career, where he discussed his sexuality and body for the 10,000th time.
It's clear the second round of Andy Cohen's favorite game was only happening for only one reason— so that Nick could respond to his brother Joe, who appeared on the show last month and revealed himself to be the most well-endowed Jonas brother.
But Nick doesn't look-in-the-shower-and-tell, so when he's finally asked "Which member of the Jonas Brothers is the most well-endowed," he turns to the camera coyly and mutters, "I plead the fifth."
Which Jonas Brother Is The Most Well Endowed?
The joke is actually on Joe, though. He may have the guns in this family, but we have seen Nick's thighs before, and we know how this whole body distribution thing works.

I was able to do a little driving around two weekends ago and the buggy was still running hot. After consulting with a few people the consensus was the electric water pump was the prime suspect. The next step was to call a tech at Mezeirre and see what they recommend. After some discussion the tech thought my cooling system was not full and suggested I drill some holes in the thermostat mounting flange to help fill the system when the thermostat was closed. Now I did not have filling problems the first go around, but then again I really have no way to confirm the system was ever full and I haven't driven the rig in 100+ degree temperatures before.
After drilling some holes in the thermostat flange I refilled the system. It was hard to tell but it seemed like I got more water into the system than before. The rig did seem to take a lot longer to open the thermostat when idling and the radiator fans actually cycled unlike before when they would go on and stay on. The true test will come this weekend.
For future reference I found out that the stock water pump on the L67 can flow between 10 gpm at idle to as much as 50 gpm around 2500 rpms assuming a good pump. The electric is rated for 35gpm so I definitely should not be running hot at low speeds (the electric pump is rated for road and road racing use so it should work good at higher speeds as well).
One of the things I noticed when I had my hood off to see if that made any difference in the engine temperature was that there wasn't near as much hot air blowing thru the passenger cabin. it seems like my hood panels do a great job of channeling the hot air coming off of the radiator into the passenger compartment. This is nice in the winter but once the ambient temperature gets above 90 degrees it makes it uncomfortable to wheel for long periods of time.
To help remedy this I made a small hood scoop and perforated the hood just behind the scoop to give the hot air someplace else to go besides onto your legs.
I had been wondering how I was going to do the roof since I needed a full sized 4' x 8' sheet of aluminum to make it one piece . This makes for a really expensive body panel since I can't get full sized sheets off of the rem piles at the local metal supply houses. I decided to try making the roof from two pieces as 4 ' x 4' sheets are pretty common in the scrap pile. Originally I was going to re-use the front section of the old roof but it looked a little beat up next to the new rear piece I cut so I just re-made the front piece as well. I used some rivets to attach the two pieces together once I had them both bolted to the buggy.
Out back I put a few flair holes into the roof to keep it from oil canning. I'll most likely add some more flared holes later at any points where the roof vibrates.
I also added some roll bar padding to the tubes above and just in front of the rear seat. The tubes are more of a hazard when entering and exiting the rig.
The next thing on my list was a protective cover for the transmission cooler which stuck out from under the rear seat a bit, I didn't want the rear passengers to kick it accidentally. This cover was made from 4 pieces of aluminum, the top and side flanges were riveted to the main body.
I can't believe I forgot this for the maiden voyage but I also got around to mounting the fire extinguisher. I tucked it next to the rear seat on the drivers side.


A large spring storm has brought one of the country's worst flooding events in decades.
Landmark flooding continues to devastate parts of the central United States.
The disaster was initiated during the second week of March when what is referred to as a "bomb cyclone" moved out of the Rockies and into the Plains dropping heavy rain and triggering snowmelt.
The images below capture the widespread extent of damage as a result of the ongoing flooding.
While residents in Nebraska and Iowa are beginning to clean up, states downstream can only wait as the rivers have yet to crest.


Its Dussera time and I wanted to have lunch with my family at a new place in Powai. Well, there are so many restros here but one place which caught my eyes was, Mirchi and Mime. After such awesome reviews and a rating of 4.9 on Zomato, this place is a must visit in Mumbai. So we booked the afternoon slot and visited one of the most awaited restro. The ambiance was simple, which I loved and was spacious.
The most amazing thing which I really liked was about the staff working here. They were having speech and hearing impairment and we had to use different sign languages to interact with them. It was so cool! I really started to love this place. Now let's move to the most important part of the review – Food!
Shakarkand Chaat: Seriously saying, I never had this chaat in my entire life before. It had Indian Sweet Potato and it tasted quite good and just exactly like a chaat tastes. This was new to me and I liked it.
Grilled Baby Potatoes: This was another great dish with baby potatoes filled with small amount of cheese. Yum! As the potatoes were piping hot, it tasted really great.
Amritsari Fish Tikka: It was a Bassa fish with mustard along some ajwain. The fish was so soft and tasted great. My love for fish grew more! Loved it.
Tandoori Quail: First time I was trying a quail and it was just like having a very small baby chicken. The taste was just ok.
Dahi Kofta: The Kofta was nice and soft but gravy wasn't up to the mark. My mother liked it a lot.
Cooker Wala Desi Kukkad: This was the dish of the day! After such a long time I had such a wonderful home style cooked chicken in a restro. The chicken was soft, really tasty and the thin gravy was good too. The dish was so tasty that we had to go for another round of Parathas with it.
Sufiyani Chicken Biryani: I love Biryanis. I always try to order a biryani whenever I visit any Indian restaurant. This one was a bit different. I never had this type of biryani before and I really loved the taste. The chicken pieces were soft and tasted great. According to the menu, it was cooked with the white spices and chicken thigh was used. Another wonderful dish of the day!
Now comes the Deserts. After having such amazing dishes, I had to try out their deserts too. So we ordered Sugar Free Sitaphal Pannacotta, Desi Cheese Cake and Coconut Creame Brulee. Each and every desert was tasty, not so sweet but among these, I liked the Brulee very much.
A great experience here with good food, amazing staff and lots of love and care from the management.
I would really like to visit this place again and again, to try more new dishes. I'm glad to find out that this one lived up to its hype. Totally recommend this restro to everyone. Cheers!!!


A colour photo from the Museums Chad Negative Collection, can anyone put names to the faces? Who can tell us more about this visit to Wembley?
Rainworth Miners Welfare. Back row left to right – R. Timms, A.Raine, D.Hallam, C. Watson, N. Robinson, B. Dawson, S. Murphy, J. Slater, T. Sterland, Middle row – M. Hodgson, D. Radzki, A. Wright, B. Phillips, J McGowen, A. Cooling, B Knowles, Front row – M. Oliver, B. Reah. It was a great achievement for this team to reach the FA Vase final at Wembley, unfortunately they lost 3 – 0 to a much stronger Forest Green Rovers team. But also in that season they won the Notts Alliance, the Notts Senior Cup and the Notts League Cup. They also had some great results in the earlier rounds of the FA Vase against much tougher opposition. They had a crowd of over 5,000 for the semi final at Rainworth which bettered 13 league attendances that day. It was a really tremendous season for this team. One player missing from the photo is Paul Comerford whose great wing play was instrumental in Rainworth's success that season.

Official: Taser guns can and do kill
So it's official: Taser guns can and do kill. They're used more often than the media and law enforcement agencies report, and people are dying or suffering long-term injury as a result.
Greg Barns
So it's official. Taser guns can and do kill. Today a joint Queensland Criminal Justice Commission and Queensland Police review into the death of 39-year-old Antonio Galeano, who was shot 28 times by police with a Taser gun and who subsequently died of a heart attack, confirms what the critics of Taser guns have said all along — that these are lethal weapons and that their use should be strictly controlled or banned.
According to The Australian this morning, the CJC/Police review notes that the "possibility of Taser use causing or contributing to death is possible and cannot be ruled out". Such a finding is not earth-shattering in itself; Amnesty International released a report in December last year that linked almost 350 deaths in the US to the use of Taser guns, but it is the first official statement in any Australian jurisdiction about the lethal capacity of Taser guns.
Taser guns are used more often than the media and law enforcement agencies report. They are, for example, used in prison systems around Australia. I am personally aware of their use in the Tasmanian prison system, and they are also used in Western Australian prisons.
The UN Committee Against Torture, in a statement in November 2007, said: "The use of TaserX26 weapons, provoking extreme pain, constituted a form of torture and that in certain cases it could also cause death, as shown by several reliable studies and by certain cases that had happened after practical use."
In 1989 Australia became a signatory to the UN Convention Against Torture and in July this year the Rudd government signed the Optional Protocol that allows for UN inspections of prisons and detention centres. Attorney-General Robert McClelland is under pressure now to create a crime of torture to ensure Australian compliance with the convention. If he does so, might the use of Taser guns by law enforcement and prison officials be outlawed?
There is an urgent need for the Rudd government to take national leadership on the issue of Taser guns. At the moment each state and territory has different rules, prisons are a black hole and people are dying or suffering long-term injury as a result of this weapon being too readily available to too many.

Border Force to be reckoned with
Over a Daryl
'Wanton endangerment'
Robert O'Connor
I've yet to figure out why this confected debate is taking place. Tasers, when used against miscreants, may result in death. Guns &c &c Until such time as I see robust figures on deaths per use by police for both tasers and firearms, I'll remain firm in my belief that there are a lot of circumstances where someone getting a 50,000 volt jolt is preferable to a 9mm drilling.
I think it is vitally important that, if police continue using these machines, police guidelines are changed to treat them as potentially leathal force.
If police officers were properly educated about the effects of Tasers and they also had to treat drawing their Taser the same as drawing their gun in terms of paperwork etc, we would see them being used a lot less.
More on my blog:
http://www.civiltonguesaustralia.com/
If I shot you 28 times with a potato gun or a tennis ball launcher I'm sure I'd do some damage too. What a ridiculous finding. What the hell were the cops doing shooting someone 28 times? Surely after one or two they'd be able to put the handcuffs on and that would be it.
In the wrong hands a lead pencil could be lethal. I still believe tazers are the best non lethal (and yes, I still say non lethal) force a cop can provide.
And on a side note now that the forces are allowing in anyone, and I mean anyone, even 5'1 45kg young blonde things nowadays, anything that is going to help is something we need.
Agree Adam.
And in other news, water was found to be acutely toxic.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyponatremia
Jos Cull
Surely the police officers who shot the man 28 times ahave been charged with manslaughter. No reasonablt person could expect that doing that would pose the risk of death to the victim.
I personally have no problem with police having Tasers. But they should be require to justify each use of them in the same fashion as they do with their firearms. There is a lot of incentive to overuse generally non-lethal devices such as Tasers in apprehending and controling people.


About 770 bronze medals were issued on Saturday to commemorate French missionary Robert Jacquinot de Besange, who set up a "safe zone" in Shanghai during World War II to protect about 300,000 people.
The medals, minted by Shanghai Normal University, Beijing Art Medal Culture Co and Nanjing Mint Co, also mark the 70th anniversary of the end of the war. Likely to become collectors' items, the medals will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis at a price of 500 yuan each (US$79).
De Besange arrived in Shanghai in 1913 when he was in his 30s. He was known as the "one-armed priest" because he lost his right arm in an explosion while conducting chemistry experiments in his youth.
In 1937, he persuaded the Shanghai government and the Japanese army to agree to the establishment of a demilitarized safe zone, called the Nanshi Safe Zone, near the French Concession. It operated until 1940, offering refuge to about 300,000 civilians, said Su Zhiliang, a history professor at Shanghai Normal University.
The zone was divided into nine areas, each with a leader elected by the refugees. The zone encompassed facilities such as hospitals, schools, a mosque, a Taoist temple and a Buddhist monastery, Su said.
De Besange's efforts drew donations from China and beyond. In 1938, he had the honor of meeting US President Franklin Roosevelt, who announced an aid package for the effort, Su said.
The success of the safe zone was replicated in other Chinese cities and later in France. After the war, de Besange went to Berlin to do postwar relief work. He died there of leukemia in 1946, aged 68.
A film of his life and work, Jacquinot: A Forgotten Hero, directed by Krzysztof Zanussi, was featured in the 2009 Shanghai International Film Festival.
The Jacquinot Safe Zone is mentioned by name in parts of the Geneva Convention of 1949, which requires all parties to protect civilians in wartime.
Professor Su said his legacy is even more important to remember today in a world beset by regional conflict and refugees.
"We need more people like him to prevent tragedies like the three-year-old Syrian refugee Aylan Kurdi, who drowned at sea when his family was trying to reach Europe," Su said.

Institute for Policy Studies: Reimagining School Safety
This valuable report analyzes how money could be better spent to protect students at school. It's findings are stunning. We as a nation are spending vast sums on police in schools but insignificant amounts on mental health services and counselors who interact directly with students.
KEY FINDINGS & OBSERVATIONS
*Since 2018, states have allocated an additional $965 million to law enforcement in schools.
*According to a 2019 ACLU study, 1.7 million students have cops in their schools, but no counselors; 3 million have cops, but no nurses; 6 million have cops, but no school psychologists; and 10 million have cops, but no social workers.
*As of 2020, nearly 60 percent of all schools and 90 percent of high schools now have a law enforcement officer at least part time.
*The $33.2 million "school security" budget allocated for 2021 in Washington, D.C., could instead fund up to 222 psychologists, 345 guidance counselors, or 332 social workers.
*The $15 million "school security" budget approved for 2021 in Chicago could instead fund up to 140 psychologists, 182 guidance counselors, or 192 social workers.
*The $32.5 million "school security" budget allocated for 2021 in Philadelphia could instead fund up to 278 psychologists, 355 guidance counselors, or 467 social workers.
The report describes "militarized schools":
As of 2019, there were nearly 50,000 school resource officers patrolling the hallways of America's schools.
In schools that serve predominantly Black student populations, it is often much more than hallways that are patrolled.
For example, D.C. police are deployed to nearly all high schools to monitor cafeterias, auditoriums, hallways, stairwells, restrooms, entrances, and exits, as well as provide security for school-sponsored events. Such schools promote a learning environment that is more akin to that of a correctional institution than an educational one

Heart-breaking list. Thank you.
Robert Reich has been releasing videos and posts on inequity. He maintains that when society disinvests in social supports and social safety nets, it resorts to social controls. He supports his argument with all the cuts that have been made to education, housing and social welfare while funding for police, prisons and surveillance are increasing. https://robertreich.org/post/624281544006205440
I like Reich's opposition of social investment vs social control. The telling thing about this link for me: the 1960's seems to be our country's only period of swinging toward social investment. Then we swang right back to what is a history of social control.
Equity vs inequity, which he alludes to, is intertwined. No doubt the last 40-yrs' ballooning of expenditure on social control is tied directly to spiraling inequality—nice words for more poor people. Jim Tankersley has a new book out examining what made our middle class thrive in post-WWII years. His research shows that period of prosperity was all about unleashing the economic power of women and minorities.
Sickening!
I just received My copy of EdSpeak and Doubletalk by Ravitch & Bailey. Thanks, Diane and Nancy.
I will put this book in my Little Free Library when done reading it. I hope whoever takes it will read it and pass it on.
Thank you, Yvonne!

"On February 14, 2018, a gunman opened fire with a semi-automatic rifle at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, killing 17 people and injuring 17 others. Witnesses identified the gunman as a 19-year-old former student at the school."
Solution is not more guns whether owned by 17-year-olds,19-year-olds or younger, or in the hands of law enforcement officers patrolling schools.
I taught in a school with an armed "school safety" officer. There were incidents of drug dealing and knifing in the school, but the the real and sustained violence was in the community and especially dense low income housing where intimidation was felt to be the way to survive. Even the community counsel meetings had armed guards.
blaming the schools for what the community is forced to suffer
Right. As Ciedie implies, the school is only the reflection of the community. Part of the solution or part of the problem, but never the main actor.
The United States officially became a police state when President Nixon declared War on Drugs and the prison population climbed like a rocket from less than a half-million annually to more than two million annually.
The police state we live that was mostly created by Republican presidents starting with Nixon has more people locked in jails and prisons than any country on the planet. China with more than four times the population is in a distant 2nd place behind by several hundred thousand.
Some states have even criminalized pregnancy and abortions.

A fairly small percentage of incarceration is due to drug offenses. Most incarceration is due to violent crime (e.g. murder, rape, assault, robbery).
https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2017/5/30/15591700/mass-incarceration-john-pfaff-locked-in
Incarceration in the US, I meant (obviously).
First off, I find it very hard to imagine how armed cops in schools help anything, and can only imagine harm. We have seen enough anecdotes from around the country supporting this view. The most outrageous instances seem to be a combination of the worst consequences of underfunding: misapplication of 'least restrictive environment' [mainstreaming of emotionally disturbed/ neurologically impaired students] + understaffing of regular and support staff + inexperience/ lack of leadership. To balance such a teetering tinderbox on the shoulders of law enforcement is just asking for trouble.
It's ironic that the Marjory Stoneman Douglas mass murders are used as justification for an explosion in armed SRO's. It was an illustration of how little armed security can do in such a situation.
Nevertheless. I would like input on whether you all think just having a quorum of nurses, therapists and social workers onsite is sufficient to address the problems of a school in a poor neighborhood beset by food insecurity, homelessness, addiction dysfunction, petty crime and even gang violence. I picture that school as a rickety raft in a typhoon, with kids getting washed overboard and clinging to floating boards as school staff tries to pull them in with hooks and lassoes.
My sis is an admin in a hisch w/a mere 30% free [22%] & reduced [8%]lunch enrollment. For an enrollment of 1400, there are 2 nurses, 2 social workers, 1 "family liaison", and 5 counselors whose duties include academic/ college & social-emotional. I know this isn't enough, because each of the 4 asst principals have 60 neediest kids assigned to them for a anything that comes up, which keeps them hopping. That work is partly counseling, partly connecting them to local social help agencies.
That's a reasonably well-funded school. Yet nurses are 1: 700, ditto social wkrs, & the 1:280 counselors are doing double duty acad/ soc-emotional [is there even such an animal?], buttressed by the 4 asst principals. All these support staff are stretched to the limit & highly-stressed; burnout/ turnover is common; results are fair to good. Even here, something seems wrong w/the structure to me. Obviously poorer schools fare far worse.
I'd like to know if people think the 'community school' model is better, where as I understand it, the schdist is a hub around which municipal social & health services are located/ connected. It sounds more efficient. Can that even work if the municipality has scattered/ spotty soc services? Seems like it would take a dedicated mayor w/a vision—for starters.
When I worked at a school in a neighborhood beset by violence, the campus aide and the counselors were each better able to deal with minor crimes on campus than was the assigned police officer. The officer would shove you up against a wall and handcuff you. The counselors would insist on talking to your parents. The campus aide would tell your grandmama what you did when he saw her in church the following Sunday. Nobody ever messed with the campus aide.
In Los Angeles Unified, one single district, the annual $70 million dollar budget for the armed, private security force called L.A. School Police could have been better spent on 130 counselors, 130 attendance counselors, 130 psychologists, 130 social workers, 130 campus aides, and 10 more community schools with full wrap-around services. LASP is pepper spraying children, giving truancy tickets, arresting 1st graders… I heard they wanted to buy a tank! Research suggests having armed agents on campus makes a school less safe, and less academically effective. Black students in LAUSD are 8% of the population and 25% of arrests. Our students have too much experience with armed occupation forces in their communities and are uncomfortable at school with LASP because of it. Our students spent the summer protesting to try to make the world a better place. But does Superintendent Investment Banker Beutner listen to students? No. He listens to money.

The funny thing is that we wanted police in our schools back when the drug dealers almost ran the place, and the principal even had to discuss it during assemblies, responding to the constant smell of "love-boat" in the stairwells, and the chains on the front doors during classes.
During the late 80s almost no one felt safe in inner city DC, even at Dunbar, which was far better off than say, Anacostia HS.
But I think we knew that our guidance counselors were overwhelmed, and I don't even recall whether we had a school nurse, despite Dunbar being such a high profile school in DC (formerly the M st. school, which produced the first Black Fire Chief, police chief, etc, and feeder to Howard University…).
I think that in hindsight, it is clear that the de-institutionalization of mental hospitals and the lack of almost any kind of health care, let alone mental or emotional therapy, beginning in the 1980s, set up a situation that almost had to lead to what we have now.
The question is how to get the massive amounts of funding we need for nurses, therapists, social workers, guidance counselors and librarians, not to mention libraries, into the schools at all levels.
I wonder how much of this immediate-term problem is affected by and can be solved via longer-term thinking, and empathy-building via programs like what PBS was doing in the 70s, and encouraging the 'each one teach one' model of cooperative learning as a supplement to additional funding for our institutions, including schools, libraries, the public health care system as well as nurses in schools, and public transportation, which is a tie-in that seems to be often overlooked?
In Hope,
-Shira
Shira,
Important and thoughtful questions.
Thank you, Diane: I only wish I had some more satisfying answers than the little bit that I've come up with (posting my interdisciplinary GED lesson plans) to make my blog useful. I hope that if we work from both ends, ground up via learners, and top-down via policy, needed change can come sooner?
If by some miracle, the billionaires stop playing with education as a hobby, teacher knowledge might prevail.
True, but there has to be something that we, the pebbles, can do?


The Charles H. MacNider Art Museum is pleased to present the new exhibition, Rob Mango: RHAPSODY. This exhibition will be on display in the Museum's Kinney-Lindstrom Gallery beginning Friday, January 18. It features eighteen oil and mixed media paintings that transport the viewer into the artist's vision.
Inspired by life in New York City, artist Rob Mango explores the relationships between dissimilar elements as a way to discover meaning. The artist perceives the world as a depository of references, with symbolism derived from cultural objects and the natural environment. RHAPSODY includes vestiges of reality, carefully rendered architecture and natural settings, all of which are transformed into allegory, leading the viewer to an alternate reality.
Rob Mango: RHAPSODY will be on display through Wednesday, March 20, 2019. For more information about artist Rob Mango please visit his website – robertmango.com.

Q: How remove text before patern only on line where the patern is? I've got the following  file:
$cat file
.
.
.
/image/trafficbulletin/black.jpg
.
.

When he finds 'black' he should delete everything else only in that line!
I want the result to be
.
.
.
black
.
.

I'm using
$ grep -o -P '(?<=tin/).*(?=.jpg)' file
But this delete all the other lines :(

A: grep -o will output only strings matching the pattern.
Try with sed using backreference:
sed 's/.*\(black\).*/\1/' file

Some variations:
As pointed out in comments, in your case you can also replace lines matching the pattern with desired string:
sed '/black/s/.*/black/' file

that is equivalent to:
sed 's/.*black.*/black/' file

With GNU sed you can also use the c command in a one liner:
sed '/black/c black' file

Both expressions of CC2D1A and HTR1A genes studied on autism spectrum disorder cases and controls were significantly different
CC2D1A binds to CHMP4B polymers formed on endosomes to regulate the endosomal sorting pathway.CC2D1A regulates degradation and signaling of EGFR and TLR4.
Aki1 was expressed in human diffuse malignant mesothelioma specimens. Expression correlated with phosphorylated CREB1. Aki1 regulates CREB by modulating protein kinase A activity. The Aki1-CREB axis plays an important role in DMM pathogenesis.
Null mutations in CC2D1A consistently cause a variable spectrum of presentations including ID, ASD, and seizures. CC2D1A regulates NF-kappaB signaling.
All of the pancreatic cancer cell lines expressed Aki1. Silencing of Aki1 in Panc1 cells reduced the phosphorylation of Akt and increased the phosphorylation of cleaved PARP.
Non-genomic downregulation of 5-HT1A receptor by 17betaestradiol does not involve NUDR and Freud-1 proteins.
TBK1-associated protein in endolysosomes (TAPE)/CC2D1A is a key regulator linking RIG-I-like receptors to antiviral immunity
CHMP4B interacts directly with CC2D1A and CC2D1B with nanomolar affinity by forming a 1:1 complex.
CC2D1A interaction with CHMP4B/4A blocks HIV-1 budding.
Results suggest the involvement of CC2D1A and CC2D2A in mental retardation in the Han Chinese population, and some specific haplotypes may be susceptible or protective.
Reductions in Freud-1 expression in prefrontal cortex may be associated with early onset of major depressive disorder.

A key question is whether the new technologies will be cheap enough to compete with the current production processes. The answer may lie in finding economy of scale, according to project partner, Stephen Rupp scientist at the Fraunhofer Institute for Interfacial Engineering and Biotechnology in Stuttgart, Germany. His team is testing a process to turn raw materials made of wood component lignocellulose into precursors of plastics that can be compared to brewing beer to produce large quantities—up to a tonne—in large fermenters. "We can produce amounts for real product and quality testing, which allows industries to validate the products, and see if it fits the product lines," Rupp tells youris.com.
Yet, industry experts believe that the field has some way to go before reaching maturity. Longdon sees the use of feed stocks that do not compete with the food chain as commercially viable in the long term. "We are interested in cellulose. It is very widely available, it exists in areas where growing food is difficult and most of the large forests are environmentally managed," Longdon tells youris.com. "Some technology such as enzymatic purification of the feedstocks has to be developed, but these things will happen," he adds.


IPL 2018: Virender Sehwag gifts KL Rahul a new nickname on his 26th birthday!
From witty remarks to praising every athlete of India for his or her heroics on any platform, former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag is the most treasured and cherished cricketer on Twitter. On Wednesday, Former Team Indian opener Virender Sehwag wished Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) opener KL Rahul in a typical Sehwag style. Happy Birthday Kadak Ladke Rahul. May you keep smashing them @klrahul11," the 39-year old tweeted.
Former Team Indian opener Virender Sehwag wished Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) opener KL Rahul in a typical 'Viru'fashion on Wednesday. From witty remarks to praising every athlete of India for his or her heroics on any platform, former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag is the most treasured and cherished cricketer on Twitter. With his legion of fans on Twitter, it's fair to say that Virender Sehwag never fails to disappoint anyone. On Wednesday, the Nawab of Najavgarh just did the same as he wished Team India batsman a very happy 26th birthday in his signature style on social media.
There's no denying that KL Rahul is preaching the form of his life in the ongoing season of Indian Premier League. The Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) batsman shattered Sehwag's hometown franchise Delhi Daredevil's 167 targets in the second game of IPL. The Punjab outfit were given a bright start by Rahul as ran riot around the Delhi bowlers and struck 4 sixes and 6 fours to smash IPL's fastest half-century. Rahul scored 51 in just 16 balls which further helped Punjab to chase down Delhi's 167 run target in just 18.5 overs. Praising the ferocious Team Indian opener on his 26th birthday, Virender Sehwag gifted Rahul a pleasant nickname while wishing the Karnataka batsman on Twitter.
"Happy Birthday Kadak Ladke Rahul. May you keep smashing them @klrahul11," the 39-year old tweeted. Yesterday, Sehwag posted a selfie with a 93-year-old fan that is still winning hearts on the internet. Sehwag, who enjoyed a glittering career with Delhi Daredevils and King XI Punjab met perhaps his oldest fan — 93-year-old Om Prakash in Chandigarh."Felt extremely touched on meeting Om Prakash ji, who is 93 years old and came from Patiala to meet me in Chandigarh and expressed his love for me. Dada ko Pranam," Sehwag tweeted.


This is a new option (IC-M) starting with 2001. Through this option, master inventory locations can be added.
The adding of inventory master locations "on the fly" are no longer possible in IC-A. Instead use this option to add or delete a master location.
With these options, users have powerful new tools to manage inventory locations and better control the addition of new master locations.
· Same as above but with the ability to specify a different department code (these codes need to have already been created in the system via SY-E).
· Based on whatever GL codes that you enter into this program - in this event, the program will attempt to find your DEFAULT record under IC-A and use those location codes.
In attempting to create new inventory locations, the add utility checks among other things for valid GL codes and if those are not found, the new location records will not be created. If there are any errors, at the end of the utility the program will notify you and you will then be able to see a log of the errors that were found so that corrective action can be taken.
In deleting locations, note that you cannot delete the blank location with the utility. Further if you attempt to delete a location that has units, it will add those units to an existing blank location record (or create a blank location record if necessary) and it will change the location to be blank in connection with any pending sales orders or purchase orders. In connection with inventory locations that contain invalid GL codes, it will also display a warning message.


Our conference theme of "Conquering the Tobacco Epidemic" will address a wide array of topics relevant for Tobacco Treatment. We have carefully chosen topics and speakers in response to input from prior conference participants (see agenda below). Please join us for a productive day filled with pertinent, cutting-edge information for anyone who wishes to help people reach a goal of freedom from tobacco.
The Planning Committee invites the submission of abstracts for poster presentations at the Ninth Annual C. Everett Koop, MD Tobacco Treatment Conference. We encourage the submission of abstracts describing research in nicotine and tobacco. Abstracts may focus on tobacco use in all forms, including smokeless tobacco and electronic nicotine delivery systems (e-cigarettes), as well as prevention and cessation efforts, tobacco control policy, and product regulation, among other topics. Abstracts should summarize empirical research findings, and will be evaluated by the committee on the basis of scientific merit.
At the conclusion of the learning activity, participants should be able to better support the population of tobacco users through improved identification, support, and treatment.
