I had a coaching friend who wrote in response to my post on our "lengthy" practices. He was surprised that we stayed on the field for such a long period of time. I see his point but it made me realize that I needed to clarify some points and go into a little more detail about how our practices were organized… especially as the season went along.
One point he was concerned about was keeping players "fresh."— that long practices would wear kids down. What I should delve into some more here is that as our season progressed, 2 things were pared down: the total amount of time we stayed on the field and the amount of conditioning that we did.
Those "8 hour practice days" were only for a week. That was our Camp Week. We totally immersed the kids in football. If they weren't at school or away at our camp site, what else would they be doing?! It's early August and nothing else is going on. It was actually 4 2-hour practices with plenty of down time, meetings and time to eat and hang out. We sold it to the kids as a "pride thing" for our program! That nobody was going to outwork us. The other selling point was that we pointed to the NFL in their training camps going on at the same time ours was. The kids love it when they can "see" themselves as being like NFL guys! We had nobody quit nor people failing to come to practice. We were way ahead of our opponents in preseason scrimmages and opening game. I learned from my old HS coach, who was a legend here in the Tidewater Virginia region (Billy O'Brien), that the opening game of the season is worth "3 games." That if you lose that first one, it takes another 2 weeks to recoup the loss. We wanted to win that opener every year. From 1995 to 2006, the last 12 years of my career, we won our opener! From 1989 till 1995, we were 5 and 2. And we did not tail off during the second half of the season either. We were ready and focused for a playoff run. We were either 4 and 1 or 5 and 0 for the second halves for 14 straight years. (*You can read in my book why we instituted "Nap Time" before our home games!!!)
What I did do was…. starting the 6th game week, we would begin to cut back on the time we spent on the field. If you have read my book, I have posted daily practice schedules. Once the season opens, our average time on the practice field was about 2 hours and 40 minutes. But, that includes team flex, kicking game, water break and conditioning. The football specific portion was only about 1 hour and 50 minutes. And, again, starting the 6th week, I would cut about 5-8 minutes per week. By the time we hit the play-offs, we were on the field for about 2 hours and 10 minutes. We rarely added time once we were in the playoffs either.
I also began to curtain the conditioning time. Whereas we were running them 12-15 minutes per day in the pre-season, it went to 10 for the first half of the season. At the 6th week, it started being shaved some more (down to 5-7 minutes per day… and occasionally just skipping a day if they worked extremely hard that day!) In the last 2 weeks of the regular season, we only really conditioned on Mondays! Tuesday's conditioning was Offensive Team Take-off period (we called it Buck Sweep Drill… lightning fast! Lots of fast movement and maximum reps) and on Wednesday's, it was Defensive Team Pursuit. If a player wasn't in shape by the 6th week of the season, he wasn't going to be!!!
My last detail that I would add is: as organized as we can try to be in high school, it is very difficult to simulate what the colleges do as far as keeping their practices moving. Why? Well, if you are like we were, you do not have a managerial staff of 8 to 10 students who are moving around the practice setting up the next drill station… moving bags and cones and putting pads on sleds, etc. I could barely get our managers to keep the water bottles full! How many times have you as the coach had to grab a bunch of shields and set up your own drill area??? If you've got this under control… great! It's kinda like that study that was just released about the average amount of "real time" in an NFL football game. It is about 11 minutes!! That's the amount of time football is actually played— from the moment of the snap till the whistle blows. I think the same is true for practice. There is simply a lot of "down time."
Team period is probably the worst. You've got your first 11 on Offense on the field and 11 on Scout Defense. If you've got a squad of 44, then half your team is standing over there on the sidelines while you go team period for 30- 45 minutes!
What we did is that I would have a "script" for our Offensive team period. It had the play we're running and the defense, including blitzes, that I wanted the Scout Team Coordinator to run. Every coach has a copy. The script is set up so that the 1st O runs 7 plays and then the 2nd O (who, by the way, is right behind the offensive coaches on the field… listening to the play and watching what the 1st team player at his position is doing) comes in and runs 3 plays. So that's 22 people who are "actively" involved on Offense.
On the Scout Defense, we have 18-20 players who alternate in. Some would be defensive starters who don't play any Offense. Others would be key defensive back-ups who need some snaps with the scout team defense. Then you have a couple of younger guys who just need to get smacked-on by the 1st team offense to build toughness and confidence. So now, during our team period we have about 40 guys actively involved. Only 5 or 6 standing around on the sideline. I had a policy not to cut anyone who tried out IF 1- he could protect himself and 2- he maintained a good attitude. But, that's another post.
I would love to talk practice scheduling with any of you who are looking for some ideas about how to make your practices more efficient. There is a "contact" button on the dashboard at the top of the home page if you would like to email me.

ST. LOUIS – St. Louisans already knew this, but St. Louis has the best scene in America, according to USA Today Reader's Choice 2019.
READ MORE: St. Louis has the best beer scene in America
So, we wanted to know where your favorite spot is to grab a beer- but first let's look at the history of beer in St. Louis.
According to stlbeer.org, from 1809 when John Coons set up a primitive brewery on what is today the site of the Gateway Arch to Carlos Brito's audacious takeover of Anheuser-Busch, St. Louis has been known as a city where beer was king.
Explore St. Louis provided some insight to the history of beer in the City of St. Louis.
'As large numbers of immigrants from Germany and Bohemia found their way to St. Louis beginning around 1830, a substantial portion of these newly-minted Americans settled in Soulard, the city's oldest neighborhood. This area was home to a number of breweries over the years, and it eventually became the home of the world's largest brewer, Anheuser-Busch. The immigrants' principal skills included making bricks and making beer, so a number of breweries began to open in the city. And it helps explain the number of red brick buildings throughout the area. In addition to Eberhard Anheuser's Bavarian Brewery and Adam Lemp's Western Brewery, others like the Arsenal Brewery, Anthony and Kuhn's, Excelsior, Green Tree and English breweries established themselves in St. Louis,' Explore St. Louis said on its website.
Here are the top five places to grab a beer in St. Louis, according to 5 On Your Side's Facebook fans
Schlafly Tap Room | 2100 Locust Street
'Forever a fan of Schlafly Tap Room at 21st & Locust. They're the ones who changed the game back in the 1990s. Still the best,' Bill Shelton said.
Schlafly opened the first new brewpub since Prohibition in 1991 at 2100 Locust.
Civil Life Brewing Company | 3714 Holt Avenue
'Civil Life Brewing Company hands down!,' Jaclyn Harris said.
'Civil Life is the best!!!!,' Fabiola Gagliardi said.
4 Hands | 1220 South 8th Street
'4 Hands Brewing Company,' Peggie Dean said.
4 Hands offers six year-round beers along with seasonal beers. It has a 20,000 square-foot brewing facility with 3,000 of those dedicated to barrel aging.
2nd Shift Brewing | 1601 Sublette Ave
'2nd Shift!' Derek Buckman said. And so did Jennifer Holtgrewe, along with several others. '2nd Shift Brewery' Holtgrewe said.
2nd Shift Brewing came about after owner, Steve received a brew kit for Christmas one year. He created a brew that his family approved of and continued in his free time. He and his wife, Libby own 2nd Shift Brewing.
Even though it's not in St. Louis – we're giving Fast Eddie's an honorable mention. You can find Fast Eddie's at 1530 E 4th Street in Alton, Illinois.
'Fast Eddie's coldest beer in town,' Josh Fromenton said.

UFC/MMA/Boxing News
Jon Jones is officially eligible to headline UFC 230 Madison Square Garden PPV
The UFC has gained a huge star back into their line-up. Last year former UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones found himself in a hot mess after failing his second United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) drug test. This came on the heels of Jones challenging Brock Lesnar to a heavyweight exhibition bout, which picked up a ton of steam. Unfortunately, Jones was stripped of his title and suspended indefinitely until USADA could sort the matter out.
In his absence, Daniel Cormier has regained the 205-pound crown and essentially solidified a heavyweight match-up of his own against Lesnar. With that being said, it looks like Jones could be back inside the Octagon a lot sooner than anybody thought. As a second-time offender, Jones was looking at a possible four-year ban by USADA. Instead, last night it was announced Jones' suspension was only 15 months long. Also, it was retroactive to when the failed test sample was obtained, which was July 28, 2017.
Now, Jones will be eligible to return to fight again next month on October 28th. That's just in time to headline the Madison Square Garden pay-per-view card on November 3rd. This would be a huge opportunity for Jones, who is a New York native. There's no doubt the card will be stacked, as fellow UFC mega-star Nate Diaz is already slated in the co-main event. Perhaps Jones can build himself back up into a possible superfight against Lesnar, which professional wrestling and MMA fans have been dying to see.

Chapter 1 is 54-pages long and can be viewed by downloading the official Shonen Jump manga reader (can be found in the source page where the chapter is too).
The website's description of Kurogane is: "Kurogane is a guy with no athletic ability whatsoever. When Tsubame, the girl who sits next to him in class, invites him to join the kendo club, he naturally turns her down. But then, on the way home from cram school, he's attacked by the ghost of a mysterious swordswoman! A story about careening youth and kendo begins here!!"

Magellan is at the vet's office now, under observation before his lumpectomy.
He's had a big lump in his neck for a while. He had a week of banana flavored antibiotics but that didn't fix it (though he took his doses like a champ!) and, unfortunately, the thing kept growing. If we left it, eventually it would have interfered with his eating habits, and then what would he do all day?
So back to the vet where we scheduled his lumpectomy. We did pass on the biopsy to save a couple hundred dollars. The lump has to come out no matter what it is.
So if you have a few minutes today, think some positive thoughts towards my little pet while he gets put under anesthesia.
If all goes well, he'll be home this afternoon!

Two contractors working in Sun Prairie ahead of an explosion that killed a firefigher and leveled much of the city's downtown last summer have been fined by the Occupational Health and Safety Administration for their role in the blast.
OSHA investigators found Bear Communications, of Lawrence, Kansas, and VC Tech, a firm hired by Bear, had failed to call the Digger's Hotline or utility owners to learn the location of a natural-gas line before digging on July 10 in downtown Sun Prairie to install a fiber-optic cable.
Neither company "within established or customary local response times, advised of proposed work, and asked to establish the location of the utility underground installations prior to the start of an evacuation," according to OSHA.
While working for Bear Communications, VC Tech crews struck a natural-gas line, causing an explosion that killed the volunteer firefighter Cody Barr, injured eleven other people and destroyed six businesses and a home.
OSHA cited the two companies for a "serious" violation — a designation reserved for incidents that at least have the potential to cause death or "serious physical harm" — and hit them with a $12,934 fine each, the maximum amount allowed by law. The companies have 15 business days from when they received the citations to contest the findings before the Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission.
Bear Communications did not respond to a message seeking comment by press time on Thursday. Contact information for VC Tech could not be found.
The companies involved in the blast appeared to catch a break last month when prosecutors, after finding the explosion had been the result of relying on incomplete and inaccurate information, declined to pursue criminal charges against them. But they're now the subjects of various lawsuits.
VC Tech, Bear, We Energies and USIC Locating Services, an Indianapolis company that provides utility-location services, were all named as defendants in a lawsuit filed on Dec. 20 by Abigail Barr, the wife of the firefighter killed in the blast.
In a statement released a day afterward, USIC contended Sun Prairie officials were right to decide not to press criminal charges.
"During this holiday season, our thoughts remain with those families impacted by the Sun Prairie explosion," according to the statement. "USIC is pleased that this past week, the Sun Prairie Police Department came to the correct conclusion that there was no probable cause to believe that a crime was committed by any USIC employee. "
The companies are also being sued by two Sun Prairie firefighters who were injured in the explosion. Those plaintiffs, who blame the companies for the injuries they suffered and accuse them of construction negligence, are being represented by Clifford & Raihala, the same personal-injury firm out of Madison that is also representing Abigal Barr.
VC Tech and Bear Communications are also the subjects of lawsuits alleging they were trying to carry out excavation work without knowing the exact location of the underground gas line that was eventually ruptured after being hit by a drill.
For the Sun Prairie project, the companies are believed to have not called the state's Digger's Hotline and instead to have tried to learn the gas line's location independently by relying on a ticket pulled in May by another company. The contractors also failed to try to learn the exact location of the line by talking to USIC.
The suits separately accuse USIC of failing to notify other companies that no one had marked gas lines at the intersection where the excavation was to take place and We Energies of not responding quickly to reports of a gas leak.Follow @natebeck9

If you're a sysadmin using the Jakarta-based file upload Multipart parser under Apache Struts 2, Nick Biasini of Cisco's Talos advises applying the latest upgrade immediately.
CVE-2017-5638 is documented at Rapid7's Metasploit Framework GitHub site.
Talos's input adds urgency to getting the upgrade, because the organisation âfound a high number of exploitation events. The majority of the exploitation attempts seem to be leveraging a publicly released proof of concept that is being used to run various commandsâ.
It was Amol Sarwate, Qualys' director of engineering, who told El Reg the bug is dire because it's a âcomplete controlâ vuln. The company has dropped a tester admins can run against their own systems, described here.
First reported by Chinese developer Nike Zheng, the attack sends an invalid Content-Type value to the uploader, which throws an exception providing remote code execution.
Here's Talos' grab of a probe it's seen against a vulnerable system:
Black hats a-knocking at the door
To see if the system is vulnerable, the probe runs
The researchers have also seen malicious attacks which turn off firewall processes on the target and drop payloads: âThe payloads have varied but include an IRC bouncer, a DoS bot, and a sample related to the bill gates botnetâ.
Talos says it's also seen attempts to drop persistent attacks into targets: âThe adversary attempts to copy the file to a benign directory and then ensure that both the executable runs and that the firewall service will be disabled when the system boots.â ®

Good morning, and thanks to all
both of you for tuning in to read my little old blog…aw shucks, I feel so warm and fuzzy now!
And yes, its Monday again…yay (not really)!
Trust me, I would much rather be home hanging out with my crew,..
We were watching Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring this weekend. So, I would much rather be doing that than working…alas, someone needs to be put dog and cat food on the table!
And to my old man who tried to tell me Lord of the Rings is overrated (*gasp*), all I can say is, like my favorite bastard, you know nothing!
However, I do know something…and that something is…wait for it…Man Crush Monday time, in the very nerdy style that is this blog!
Oh, The Lord of the Rings. I loved the books and I loved the movies. And I decided that I needed to once again pay Middle Earth a visit, and drag my poor bastard along this time. What's the fun in visiting Middle Earth if I can't force it on the uninitiated, right?
And, I fell in love again…
Don't worry, this is another book boyfriend. And I have an open marriage when it comes to book boyfriends, thankfully.
Yes, Aragorn. He was swoon-worthy in the books, and Viggo Mortensen made him even more swoon-worthy in the movies. If it wasn't for Arwen…oh boy, is all I can say.
Again, there is something about the quiet leadership of a man like Aragorn. At times he seems reluctant, almost unwilling even, but he pulls through in the end, and does whatever he needs to do to keep everyone safe.
And (surprise, surprise) the master himself is also a big fan of Lord of the Rings, although I'm not sure if he counts Aragorn among his book boyfriends (but hey, no judgement if he does, that would be cool, actually).
Stephen King has often stated that the series has been a huge influence on his work, and counts Tolkien's books as some of his favorite books.
In fact, King has also stated that he dreamed of writing his equivalent to The Lord of the Rings. The series had inspired him that much.
And King did write his equivalent to The Lord of the Rings, when his book The Stand was written and published. The setting may have been contemporary ('Murrica!) and the book may not have contained hobbits, but the underlying themes were strikingly similar to the ones appearing in Tolkien's work: friendship. environmental issues, casualties of war, self-sacrifice and so forth. The Stand even came with a scary, evil wizard to rival good old Saruman!
And of course, heroes. Like Tolkien's saga, The Stand contained its share of heroes. And all of these heroes are human. And some are more human than others, as they openly question the roles that they have been thrust into, oftentimes against their will. But like Aragorn, in the end King's heroes also rise to the occasion, and will do whatever it takes to protect their
hobbits charges against those who would do them wrong.
As stated before, King's heroes tend to be human, and many are fallible. In other words, Stephen King heroes are kind of like stars: they really are just like us!
Which brings me to the subject of this week's Man Crush Monday!
Ladies, meet my favorite Stephen King Everyman…Nick Andros!
Well, Nick is almost an Everyman. Other than the fact that he is deaf. And mute. And somehow still learned to read and write, despite the fact that he was an orphan almost everyone had given up on and no one believed would amount to much, on account of poor Nick being unable to communicate with the outside world. And did I mention he rescues stray cats from trees and helps little old ladies cross the street?
Well, maybe that last part is a bit of hyperbole. Nick is not an Everyman, he is just too awesome to be a mere man. So go ahead and feast your eyes on Nick Andros!
Name: Nick Andros
Profession: Worked odd jobs and was obtaining his GED until the apocalypse interfered with those plans.
Family: See section on being orphaned. Was mentored by someone named Rudy. See section on learning to read and write.
Friends: Mother Abagail. Reminds him that a certain deity believes in him, even if Nick does not reciprocate.
Ralph Brentner. Some friends can just help a person break down walls and open up communication.
Tom Cullen. M O O N that spells some friendships can even transcend death.
Enemies: Aragorn had them, and Nick also has them.
Julie Lawry. M O O N, that spells traitorous bitch.
Harold Lauder. Some people will just blow up everything, including houses that incredibly awesome folks just happen to be hanging out at.
Randall Flagg. See section on evil wizards, who are probably everyone's enemy anyway.
Special note: Keeping plenty of paper and pencils on hand will score points with Nick. See section on "handicap."
So here there it is, ladies…I give you Nick Andros! There is just something about the strong, silent type, isn't there? And did I say Nick is compassionate, and will not tolerate any kind of bullying, even from pretty girls? M O O N, that spells guy who looks out for the underdog, since he has been there before! And anyone who is willing to take up the fight for the little people, whether they be humans or hobbits, is crush worthy in my book!
So that's it for this week's edition of Man Crush Monday. Tune in next week, when we will swoon some more over literary characters that we will never have a chance with!

This photo shows how
I always drive my chair carefully around any child whether furry or not?
This could be called trust but I call it stubborn. He does know the word "move" very well.
My children laugh at how our
our baby girl is that way, she knows the command but will not do it. with Jake, if he has my seat i say get up and let me have my seat and he does, if baby had it, she will not move unless i use my mean hateful i mean it voice. i say Jake come on we are going in, he comes, she stands and stares at me, like she is deaf.
Could be a bit of both. He trusts that his mommy wouldn't hurt him ;) or maybe he just doesn't have the energy to move at the moment.
That is a funny picture. I have one cat who will not move!
I'm going to call it trust. I'm basing that on his trusting little eyes looking up at you.
This made me smile this morning.
I agree with you. The expression says stubborn. It's hard not to laugh though. I saw you on Over 40 Bloggers. I am over 40 also but I do not have the button on my blog. I'm working on it. I am now following you. I hope you will stop by my blog and have a look around http://talesfrommyjournal.blogspot.com I can be found in facebook too http://www.facebook.com/DeniseMartin.LillaRose and twitter @DeniseLillaRose If you like/follow me there I will do the same for you. When you stop by my blog, please check out my kind of fashion (hair jewelry).
How cute! We both have posted our furry friends today. I'd say he's stubborn if you have run over his foot, trusting if you have not!
I have run over his foot, kinda. He does jump away when he is sleeping by my tires and he hears the chair click on. It is tough for me to decide, really.
According to the look in his eye, I'd say stubborn. I've seen that VERY look on my 4 year old's face!
Maybe he's playing a game of can I trust you? If you haven't run over him he may think your both having fun playing this game!
Oh, that paw is too close for comfort! Good thing you are always on the lookout!
Looks like he wants a horse treat...
My cat is the same way...sometimes I feel like just running over her so she'll get the idea, but I never do! It is not trusting it is down right stubborn humor for them...lol
Awww, he's cute! No way to get very angry at that little guy.
Great photos, Kim. Thanks so much for stopping by and following along today at A Rural Journal. I truly appreciate it! :)
He trusts that his Mama will take good care of him.....(but he is such a scary cat(dog )....auntie sue
I think he trusts you!!
I really enjoyed your earlier posts about your husband and your dad - and the pics! You are blessed to have such a wonderful family.
Oh, yeah. The horse is challenging you. You will only need to run over his hoof once though.
yeah, isn't it amazing at what babies they are...I certainly know that!
I'm going to call it trusting -
Maybe he's quietly playing his own game of chicken...What will happen first, will I get run over or will I move???
Look at that face! Thats the cutest horse I've ever seen! Blessings, Joanne
It never ceases to amaze me the way animals react / interact with scooters or wheelchairs.
Caregivingly Yours, Patrick
I adore him. That would be my fear about having a cat or dog, that my lift chair or power chair would get them.
awww...love that he needs you....and he does look like a horse....it's not about size...but heart....glad you have him.
Instead of saying "move", you can try "moove" or "moof" or "movve".....
Aw, just run him over. Dogs learn very quickly that way. Really. They do.
Kim -
This is so funny! I think he is playing with you. :)
And of course he knows he can trust you so he maybe pushes his luck a little. :)
God bless! Hope you have a great weekend!

The Oedipus Complex, a theory created by Frued, basically revolves around the idea that a biologically female child will grow up with a sort of envy towards their father because he has a penis and that a biologically male child will subconciously love his mother and want to have sex with her and try to relate to the father in an attempt to make the mother like them, but in later life, will instead seek a woman to replace his mother.
In the beginning of Frankenstein, we are introduced to Victor's parents. They are both described as very kind people who gave him a nice childhood. He describes his mother Caroline as very beautiful and as, "a guardian angel to the afflicted"(41). After his mother dies, Victor tells us that he, "… need not describe the feelings of those whose dearest ties are rent by that most irreplacacle evil; the void that presents itself to the soul; and the despair that is exhibited on the countenance it is so long before the mind can persuade itself that she…can have departed forever––that the brightness of a beloved eye can be extinguished…" (49). The sudden death of his mother was obviously a huge deal to Victor. Right after her death, Victor moved away to start his studies at the university where he would eventually become obsessed with putting together a corpse and giving it life. It can be argued that Victor's attatchment to his mother, her sudden death, and his desire to animate a corpse are all connected through Freud's oedipus complex. In Freud's The Uncanny, he talks about how children at some point wish for their dolls to become alive. This sort of infantile desire can be seen in Victor's scientifuc endevour. Victor's wild dream about his mother demonstrates his obsession with his dead mother, whom he loves and possibly wanted to be intimate with. His creation of the creature was his attempt to create someone to love as a replacement for his mother which could only be a corpse. Therefore, Victor has necrophlilic desires. When the creature first awoke, Victor describes its eye as "dull" and "yellow" and also states that the creatures body convulsed and that it breathed hard. The eyes of the creature did not have the 'brightness' of his mother's eyes before she died. Nor was the creature as beautiful as he had hoped. This dissapointment felt is a result of the creature not living up to Victor's expectations which were expectations of the creature being as lovely as his mother.

|JIRA scalability issues
|Sat, 26 May 2012 20:50:45 GMT
On Fri, May 25, 2012 at 12:57 AM, Steve Loughran <email@example.com> wrote: > It is becoming a bit of a SPOF, isn't it? What has changed about our JIRA instance is both its size and its increasing integration into the workflows of some projects. It always was a SPOF, but now we are feeling it more because it is getting harder to keep online, harder to troubleshoot, and more sorely missed when it is unavailable. Unfortunately, JIRA is not a distributed application. There is one massive database. There is one process. Resource utilization exceeding the capabilities of a single machine isn't a problem yet. Traffic isn't too heavy -- 3-4 hits a second on average, from what I hear. But when you have to reindex, it takes hours, and when you have to restart, it takes several minutes. That sluggishness severely impedes troubleshooting -- a problem that could be isolated in minutes with a smaller JIRA instance and near-instantaneous restarts takes hours to solve with a database as big as ours. The JIRA project import pains which have affected the Flex podling are related to this. JIRA is a pain to upgrade because it is big and finicky about JREs and operating systems, and because our infamous custom checkbox module makes things tricky. There was some question about whether version discrepancies were aggravating the Flex import failures, but nobody wanted to go through the upgrade to see if that helped. Then, JIRA security vulnerabilities forced Infra's hand this week. The consequence was a lot of downtime and a lot of frustration and stress for everybody while Infra has worked through the upgrade with lots of 5-minute restart cycles. It has been at least as painful as everyone had anticipated. This list isn't the venue for solving these problems, but as JIRA scalability issues are impacting podlings and projects, I think it's wise for us to take the situation into account.

Salman is All Charged to Tie The Knot. Who's the Bride? Take a Peep!
While Salman Khan has been all in the limelight for his abs and moves in the Sultan teaser, the actor perhaps has more good news to reveal. 2016 seems to be a great journey for Bollywood with a Pandora's Box of interesting scoops being fed to us. With Geeta and Meera as well as Genelia on the way of motherhood, Bollywood has seen a plethora of hook ups too. While we have not yet moved out of the hangover of Bips and Karan Grover's marriage, it seems another couple is soon going to join the list and you won't believe who it is.
Read: Latest Breakup of Sushant Singh Rajput and Ankita Lokhande
It's none other than Salman Khan, the fifty aged most eligible bachelor of Bollywood. Though the entire Bollywood had been waiting for him to tie the knot, Salman probably has a surprise to share. There have been rumours of Salman and Iulia Vantur, his Romanian girlfriend. Though Bollywood decided to remain tight lipped about the entire affair and even Salman too, some of his recent pictures have confirmed that the Bhai of Bollywood is indeed up to something.

Sallu had been recently shooting for Sultan and after a long shoot that continued for almost a period of 4 months at a stretch, it was finally time to pack up. While Bhai was returning from his finished shoot, he along with his family was spotted with Iulia Vantur at the Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport.
What made us more curious was that Sallu's mother, Salma was spotted with a stick on one hand and Iulia on the other. Apart from the duo, there were Alvira and Salman. It was quite evident that the three ladies of the Bhai's life had been accompanying him in his shoots for Sultan.

With Iulia being spotted with Salllu's family, it is confirmed that the affair is no longer confined to them but is probably soon going to ring the wedding bells. Iulia has been present in almost all outdoors of Bajrangi Bhai and was also the special guest in his recent birthday party of the fiftieth year.
Seems like a grand wedding invitation is in the pipeline.

The Whole Blends product line softened and nourished my hair. I could feel the difference the products made as I washed my hair. I enjoyed the Coconut Oil and Coconut Butter Shampoo and Conditioner the best. It helped smooth my hair and get rid of the frizz. This a great replacement for a previous product that I used to use that is now discontinued. Garnier products are quality products and the Whole Blends product line are a representation of this. I highly recommend trying the Whole Blends line. To learn more about Whole Blends, click here.

The day began at 4:50 am, civil twilight it is called, just a glow of light about 35 minutes before sunrise. I met our Cambodian crew in the yard. We loaded 130 large black crates into a box truck and drove out to the field to harvest Swiss Chard. By 7:15 we had harvested 1150 pounds of chard. Then on to harvest pearl onions. 8440 pearl onions later and it was 10:00. The crew took a short break to refuel and then joined us in the strawberry patch. We usually have several work crews doing different jobs simultaneously. At 8:00 four workers had gone out to harvest the first of the season's zucchini while another group headed to the strawberry patch. We harvested strawberries until 10:00 at which time the Cambodian crew joined the strawberry harvest so others of us could go harvest broccoli. The broccoli had responded to the heat and grown like crazy over the weekend. 1756 heads of broccoli were harvested, loaded into another box truck and driven to the packing shed where they got hydro cooled (soaked in tubs of cold water to remove the field heat) then counted into crates, iced and put into the cooler. Broccoli likes to be stored really cold. A truck load of strawberries came in at noon. We carried the crates of berries to a cooler and then took a nice lunch break. After lunch the Cambodian crew washed and banded chard and a crew of four transplanted basil, three varieties of basil for the Pesto Fest! David and Jesse kept busy irrigating the crops today. A lot of time goes into irrigation. This beautiful recreational weather is a bit dry for the vegetables. Today has been warm, sunny and productive, what more could we ask for. Happy Fourth of July!

From Daimler's media page.
Stuttgart/Riccione. After ten years in Austria, this year the world's largest gathering of smart fans is taking place in Italy for the first time. From 4 - 7 August 2011 the European smart community will come together in the seaside resort of Riccione on the Adriatic coast. In future smart times will take place in a different country each year. This reflects the continuously growing importance of the event for the smart brand. In the space of ten years smart times has evolved from a small gathering to a large European event. More than 4000 smart enthusiasts from 22 countries, some with individually designed vehicles, are expected in Riccione where they will celebrate their passion for smart cars together and connect with designers, tuners and industry experts.

I know I've been quiet, but I have two very good reasons. First and foremost, I got sick. Whatever bug is going around, I caught it yesterday afternoon, making me wish Monday hadn't happened. (I never thought I'd want a Monday do over, but if I could go back and avoid getting sick, I'm all for it.) Either that or I'm buckling under the pressure! Haha, not likely. And second, I saw Iron Man 3 Friday night and I'm still not sure what to say–especially about the ending. And third, (I know I said two reasons, but this just came to me) I finished Slaughterhouse-Five, and I'm not sure what I want to say about that either.
So, rather than remaining silent as I ponder two very opposing items of entertainment while snuggling deep into the pillowy softness of my bed and nursing a sore throat, I thought I'd share this funny video I discovered while reading the latest post on a blog *cough* Sandi Layne *cough* I follow. Yes, it is an advertisement, but it put a smile on my weary face. I'm a sucker for funny ad campaigns. Call it an occupational hazard.
Enjoy! (And for the record, I am a happy iPhone user.)

Small Modular Reactor (SMR) Market to Record an Exponential CAGR by 2018 – 2026
Small Modular Reactor (SMR) Market: Overview
Small modular reactor (SMR) is a type of portable nuclear reactor that is smaller than conventional reactor. It is manufactured at a facility/plant and brought to a site to be fully constructed. Small modular reactor (SMR) is a flexible and affordable source of power generation. Demand for Small modular reactor (SMR) is driven by its deployment in brownfield sites in place of decommissioned coal-fired plants, the units of which are seldom very large – more than 90% are under 500 megawatt electrical (MWe), while some are under 50 megawatt electrical (MWe). Thus, capital costs can be lowered when small modular reactor (SMR) is deployed in brownfield sites rather than greenfield projects.
Small Modular Reactor (SMR) Market: Trends & Demands
Rapid growth in population, high demand for electricity, and implementation of stringent government regulations to minimize harmful emissions are boosting the demand for nuclear power. Nuclear energy is a clean and reliable energy source. It is anticipated to play a vital role in energy security across the globe. Increase in demand for electricity due to high population growth has resulted in efficient energy systems globally. This is driving investments in the nuclear power business, which is estimated to provide a platform for the deployment of small modular reactor (SMR) in the near future. SMR is less capital intensive than conventional nuclear power plants.

Small Modular Reactor (SMR) Market: Key Segments
The global small modular reactor (SMR) market can be segmented based on type of reactor and region. In terms of type of reactor, the small modular reactor (SMR) market can be divided into pressurized water reactor (PWR), pressurized heavy water reactor (PHWR), high temperature reactor (HTR), fast neutron reactor (FNR), and others (including MSR and integral PWR). A boiling water reactor uses light water as both coolant and moderator. Boiling water reactor boils water and works on a cyclic process. Water used in this process is converted into steam, which is recycled back into the water through condenser. In pressurized water reactors, water is pumped under high pressure and temperature conditions. The water gets heated by energy generated due to nuclear fission reactions taking place inside the nuclear reactor. This generates steam, which flows into steam turbines in order to generate electricity.
Small Modular Reactor (SMR) Market: Regional Outlook
In terms of region and capacity (MWe), China holds major share of the global small modular reactor (SMR) market. Currently, India (PHWR-220), China (CNP-300), and Russia (Siberia- EGP-6) have active small modular reactor (SMR) plants. In Argentina, CAREM-25 is expected to commence operation in 2019. Globally, there are more than 40 planned projects with respect to prototype testing/licensing/commercialization of SMRs. Most of the near-term deployment of these reactors is planned in Russia, China, and the U.S. In Europe, the U.K. government published a report on small modular reactor (SMR) concepts, feasibility, and potential in 2014. The report was produced by a consortium led by the National Nuclear Laboratory (NNL). A second phase of work is intended to provide technical, financial, and economic evidence base required to support a policy decision on small modular reactors (SMRs). Small modular reactor (SMR) development is proceeding in western countries with significant private investment, including small companies. Involvement of these new investors indicates a profound shift taking place from government-led and -funded nuclear R&D to that led by the private sector and people with strong entrepreneurial goals, often linked to a social purpose. That purpose is often deployment of affordable clean energy, without carbon dioxide emissions. The U.S. has 99 nuclear reactors–the highest for any country worldwide. However, according to the U.S. Department of Energy, the U.S. would need additional 22% more electricity by 2020. This is estimated to propel the demand for nuclear waste management services, thereby augmenting investment in SMRs in the U.S. in the next few years.

Banning letting agents fees: who comes off the worst?
PUBLISHED: 17:05 06 January 2019 | UPDATED: 17:05 06 January 2019
If the Tenant Fees bill becomes law, it's fantastic news for tenants..isn't it? Mike White, from Martin & Co in Norwich, discusses.
The Tenant Fees bill continued its journey through the House of Lords in the last quarter of 2018. The bill is due to have its third reading in the Lords in January 2019 and will then return to the House of Commons for consideration of Lords Amendments. An implementation date will be confirmed after the bill receives Royal Assent, most likely April 2019.
The bill seeks to amend the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 by stopping letting agents from charging tenants or prospective tenants: admin fees; inventory check fees; reference check fees; renewal fees etc.
If this goes through to become law, that's fantastic news for tenants isn't it? Well let me pose the question; whose likely to come off worse; agents, landlords or tenants?
But, before I answer that, let's look at the dynamic between the fees agents charge to landlords and those charged to tenants together with the commonly held view that agents charge both parties for the same thing. In Norwich, your typical properly registered letting agent, will charge the landlord somewhere around £300 - £400 including VAT to find them a tenant, do the referencing, draw up the tenancy agreement etc. Although they may be described in a myriad of different ways, tenants on average get hit with total tenancy setting up fees of £325. Before anyone with an anti- agent bent starts shouting at me that both parties are paying for the same thing, agents are rip-off merchants and how can it possibly cost £625-£725 to set up a tenancy, hold on a minute. What each party pays is their contribution to the total cost and I believe this is fair as both receive a service and moreover, peace of mind. A good agent will only take on decent properties that conform to all legislative standards, having checked the bona fides of the owner, thereby protecting the tenant, while the landlord is assured their tenant has been appropriately checked. Both get a tenancy agreement properly conforming to the Housing Acts plus the security deposit gets protected etc. Interestingly, what letting agents do, fee-wise, is not hugely different from what a travel agent does, for example, they charge both the hotel company and the holidaymaker but this all gets bundled up in the brochure price of the holiday and no-one complains! The only difference is a letting agent is legally obligated to publish their individual tariff of charges for both landlords and tenants online.
Hang on, you didn't answer that other question; does it really cost £625-£725 to set up a tenancy? No, it doesn't but a letting agent is in business to make a profit and we do need to put beans on our toast. I can't speak for the transparency of other agents but you're very welcome to have a look at the annual audited report and accounts for Martin & Co Norwich which are a matter of public record at Companies House.
So, back to the original question, the anti-agent brigade have their way and tenants no longer need to pay fees – happy days for whom?
Well someone is going to have to pay that £600 odd, if it's the letting agent they'll be a lot of empty shop fronts in the city centre as they all start going bust at a rate of knots. This is not so good if, as a landlord or tenant you see the genuine value of an agent and what happens to the already dysfunctional housing market as the ability to source residential property further clogs up when the facilitators are no longer around?
Okay, so the cost is put onto the landlords' shoulders. Are they going to be able to absorb this? Sorry, that's a rhetorical question because the answer is so obviously, not a chance. The vast majority of landlords in the UK own one or perhaps two properties and don't make a heap of cash from them. Getting landlords to pay will simply prompt a huge percentage to stop playing the game and take their bat and ball home. No, the only sensible solution will be for rents to increase – using the £325 tenant fee, this means rents will need to go up by a minimum of £27 per month, assuming a tenant signs an initial agreement for 12 months (more if shorter). In all likelihood they'll go up by more than £27 to compensate the landlord for having wait up to a year to receive back the extra money they've had to pay the agent at the outset. How much more? I haven't a clue but for the purposes of this argument, let's say the rent goes up by £35 per month, that's an extra £420 over the course of a year. If the tenant wants to stay on at the property for a second or third year, that's another £420 per annum, all to have 'saved' £300 at the start. I agree, this bill would do more to harm tenants than help them.
If you're interested to see what different letting agents charge their clients and how these compare with what you're paying, it should be a simple matter of looking at the individual agent's website to see their published tariffs. As I mentioned, this is now a legal requirement.

Virtual benefits to materials science
Virtual reality and materials science may not seem like a natural pairing, but it might offer more than expected. UC Merced's Dr Lilian Davila speaks to Khai Trung Le about its potential in teaching and research.
In the 1992 film, The Lawnmower Man, total immersion in virtual reality was achieved by being restrained to an aerotrim wearing skin-tight silver Lycra and a bulky headset. Fortunately in the last few years, virtual reality has managed to shed its iconic, cumbersome imagery with commercial releases from Sony, Facebook and HTC and Valve Corporation, centred on uses in remote communication, architecture and gaming. Dr Lilian Davila from the University of California, Merced, USA, Computational Materials Science Group, has pursued the use of virtual reality in materials science education and research for more than a decade. While the response has been upbeat at the University of California, it has failed to make headway beyond. What does the recent advance of VR mean for her efforts?
Real potential
Initially a computer scientist, Davila said she first saw the potential of virtual reality following a doctoral project using molecular dynamics simulations for the study of structural transformations and properties of silica glass at high pressure. Recalling a computational group at UC Davis testing virutal reality systems for materials scientists, Davila collaborated with Dr Oliver Kreylos in 2004 on his open-source software, Nanotech Construction Kit (NCK), which enabled users to build models akin to Lego blocks or read data from different databases and edit the virtual system. 'Not only could you modify the virtual structure in VR but there was also real-world physical behaviour based on inter-atomic forces used in the NCK modelling software - for example, mimicking realistic interactions between atoms, so you could describe the attraction and repulsion forces in a material system. You could "feel" these forces,' Davila said.
However, wider adoption was hampered by the VR environment being solely available at the UC Davis facilities, with replicating the cheapest environment costing around US$150,000. But Davila saw the potential in the system, noting, 'This was in 2004. Technology changes rapidly, and there was a good chance to reduce the cost of these VR environments.'
Davila and Kreylos reconnected in 2009, with Davila installing a new Kreylos developed system that was deemed more affordable (around US$8,000). After its use in a summer workshop focused on exploring carbon nanotube structures in VR, Davila was granted funding for the IDEAS project from the National Science Foundation, focusing on molecular dynamics simulation studies. Eschewing bulky headsets, the IDEAS platform uses 3D goggles and cameras to track the movement of a modified Nintendo Wii remote for atomistic models manipulation, and was made compatible with the LAMMPS open-source molecular dynamics simulator as part of the project's bid to make VR systems more palatable for research purposes.
VR is not intended to replace conventional computational techniques, but to provide added value. Davila said, 'If we only use conventional computing, we analyse results in a linear way. You work on your code, test and develop for efficiency, then run large batches of jobs and analyse data accordingly. When you have a VR system, you have added value to the research – yes, you can visualise models with existing packages, but for example if you are investigating the elastic behaviour of nanohelices, a VR system readily tells you when the helical structure is beginning to deform or break on turning or twisting, or benefit from an enhanced depth perception and visualise how defects affect overall properties. The main strength of molecular dynamics is that you are looking at the evolution of atomistic details. In the virtual world, you can "see" and interact with all features in the materials simultaneously.'
Learning to play
The greatest success of Davila's system has been employing physical model-building procedures in education. Davila believes this allows her students to excel in spatial learning, by the act of building and drawing in the 3D space. She noted that 'it can be difficult to grasp related concepts while fostering spatial learning, particularly for the younger students. You're talking about directions and planes, impurities moving along vectors and planes in materials – computational scientists use vastly abstract ideas and codes. Virtual environments that mimic hands-on allow researchers to readily build models and analyse simulation results to advance knowledge and promote innovation.'
Virtual reality also has the potential to change the learning environment, including emulating multiple laboratory environments in VR and remote collaborations, but Davila expects this will only come about when familiarity with virtual reality systems is more widespread. 'Since the cost of VR environments continue to drop significantly, this continues to be a good opportunity for collaborative projects. But in many cases, the building of a VR environment is not possible or practical. The main hurdle remains the integration of all components – not a trivial problem, but technology continues to provide new and different paths.'
Davila has not explored more recent consumer devices including Oculus Rift and HTC Vive, but is open to expanding compatibility with the IDEAS system with appropriate funding.
Immaterial science
There remain obstacles to the proliferation of VR in materials science research. Whereas the bottleneck may previously have been from a technological perspective, Davila believes engineering faculties are more open to pursuing advanced technologies. One enduring obstacle remains in convincing scientists of its value. 'Professors are not as open to collaborate with colleagues outside their field. But we've proven VR is a possibility, and we just have to be diligent about it. Using VR environments in materials science has a unique value, and research and funding is becoming more competitive. Given the next generation of students are visually oriented, it is certainly another motivation for educators and researchers to make use of VR systems as complimentary tools.'

The TrueDepth camera on your iPhone X is for more than unlocking your phone and Animoji. It also lets you play music, at least in GarageBand. Read on to learn how.
Erasing Your Face is the Creepiest iPhone X Camera Trick So Far
Mapping your face for Animoji is a pretty cool use for the iPhone X front-facing TrueDepth camera, but making your face disappear completely? That's creepy, a little cool, and exactly what app developer Kazuya Noshiro did. He made an app that cuts out your face while leaving your eyes and mouth behind. It tracks your face in real time so whatever is behind you is always visible, and it's pretty impressive if not a little unsettling. He hasn't released his app, but you can see it in action on his Twitter feed.
