As NFL offenses continue to evolve finding versatile tight ends continues as teams want these players that can be move around the formation and be a weapon. But with all these oversized receivers we've seen lately the traditional tight end has slowly gone away, so finding players who can be an inline blocker and still make plays in the passing game are hard to find. Today we take a look at UCLA tight end Caleb Wilson and how his skill set will be attractive to NFL teams.

It was a bit of a long road for Caleb Wilson to get to UCLA as he originally committed to Old Dominion as a quarterback but walked on at USC as a tight end where his dad was a coach, but then transferred to UCLA after his dad was let go by the Trojans. After seeing limited duty as a redshirt freshman, Caleb Wilson was in the middle of a breakout sophomore season accumulating 490 yards receiving before a foot injury ended his season five games in.

Lining up primarily inline Wilson is used quite as a blocker in the run game. Wilson plays with good leverage using his hands well to engage with defenders and lock them down with strong hands. Wilson is able to push and steer defenders into a position to seal them off and help open running lanes. As a receiver Wilson is a smooth runner who uses quickness at the stem to create separation. This is no more evident than over the middle of the field where Wilson will use a body lean before making that quick cut to leave linebackers and safeties in the dust. From there he has soft hands and the ability to pluck the ball out of the air.
While Wilson is able to make some quick moves to get open moving downfield he can struggle to make big changes of direction on out, hooks and comeback style routes. Instead Wilson tends to round off his routes and get out there with more speed. In college he can get away with that, but in the NFL he'll need to improve that ability. And while Wilson is not a bad athlete by any stretch he lacks good explosiveness or speed which can cause some separation issues or limit his yards after the catch ability.

— Brian Johannes (@Draft_Brian) July 26, 2018
With his traits Caleb Wilson has the potential to be a starting caliber tight end in the NFL. At a minimum with his blocking skills he'll be used inline or even as an H-Back move around as a lead blocker to to set the edge. Wilson can also be used to work the middle of the field as a big weapon for his quarterback. Wilson may never turn into one of the elite tight ends in the NFL, but there is no reason he doesn't have the potential to be a quality starter. With Chip Kelly taking over the Bruins it should be fun to see how Wilson integrates into that offense and fully get to see how he is as a pass catcher.

The Counting Crows teamed up with Rob Thomas for a co-headline tour with special guest K. Phillips at Atlanta's Chastain Park Amphitheatre on Monday, July 25. And nothing is better at beating the Monday blues than a dose of good music, and that's exactly what this tour did. Counting Crows have always paired up with remarkable acts, along with introducing new acts on their tours.
Rob Thomas was Smooth, and man he has not lost a beat. Thomas filled This is How a Heart Breaks with energy as he drenched two t-shirts in a 16-song set that included some notable songs from his Matchbox Twenty days, like 3AM and Unwell. He also played some of his stellar solo material, including Fallin' to Pieces and the chart topping Lonely No More. However, the real treat was when he did a cover of Prince's Baby I'm a Star. I almost feel like every artist that passes through Atlanta now feels the need to include a Prince tribute and it was nice to see this little gem performed by Rob Thomas. In between the switch over from Rob Thomas to Counting Crows the skies acted like they wanted to erupt into a shower. It ended just in time for the Counting Crows to take the stage.
Counting Crows soulfully have etched out a part of music history for over twenty years. Jumping into the mainstream consciousness with 1993's August and Everything After, they followed it with six other studio albums including the hit songs Mr. Jones, Omaha, High Life and The Last December (which they performed with gusto).
As great as their albums are, they are truly a live band. They should be experienced in person to soak in every nuance of their sound. And the Atlanta show was no exception. The 20-song set list from the intro of Lean on Me to a cover of Joni Mitchell's Big Yellow Taxi was perfectly timed, humble and honest. For me though, hearing 1492 and Recovering the Satellites was perfection.
This is a combo worth shelling out money to see perform live. Counting Crows and Rob Thomas will be touring through September 30, if you get a chance definitely try to make it out to a show.
Check out the full photo gallery of all three acts here.

Report your children to police if you think they're a terror threat says Theresa May… Politicians report your collegues if they abused children says Bill Maloney
Parents should report their children to the police if they are at risk of becoming terrorists, Theresa May said today.
In the wake of the Tunisia atrocity, the Home Secretary warned it was difficult for the intelligence agencies and police to stop so-called 'lone wolf' attacks launched by individuals who have been radicalised online.
And she revealed plans for a major counter-terror exercise to 'test' the country's ability to deal with an attack on British soil, after 40 plots were disrupted in the last decade.
Meanwhile, David Cameron asked for flags over Number 10 to be flown at half-mast 'in memory of the victims of the terrorist attack in Tunisia'.

I, like many of you out there, manage a few of my kids sporting teams. It's funny how a room goes silent when there is the question put out as to who would like to nominate themselves for this role. I think in this world there are the doers and the whiners (have you ever noticed that the parents that whine the loudest about the way things are being done are the ones that don't offer to do anything themselves?) The other thing that I've noticed is that once you put your hand up to help, you are then forever more stuck in that role. I naively thought the first time I offered to take on managing a team that it would be passed around to all the parents, but alas years on, I'm still in the same role.
I don't mind the texting to co-ordinate everyone or dealing with the governing association for that sport – what I can't stand is being in charge of subbing players on and off the field/court. No matter what I've done in the past, someone has complained that it's not been fair to their child. I tried doing it alphabetically to make sure everyone had their turn but the mother of the little girl whose name was at the start of the list took offence to this method, so I changed to subbing the kids off in order of their jersey number, until one of the dads complained that it kept our two best players off at the same time. Add to that the grief from the child that just doesn't want to come off the field. Some days I just feel like pulling my hair out!
So I was ecstatic this week when someone told me about a phone app that does all the hard work for you – all my wishes have come true! For all you parents who are coaches/managers do yourself a favour and download 'FairCoach' (I'm not paid to endorse this app – I am genuinely thrilled to have found it). It allows you to mark off which kids are present, set the format for the game (halves, quarters etc), set the time of the game and then it spits out which children are to come off at what exact time. It even allows you shuffle the players so it changes week by week – Hallelujah!
I used it for the first time last night at my son's basketball and it was great – any time a kid moaned about it not being their turn, I could just say 'the phone app says it is your turn' and that shut them up. I love when technology makes your life easier in the most unexpected ways. Now if someone could just design an app that could drive the kids to their sport and wash their uniforms after, then life would be truly perfect!

The £36,000 pavilion – which has been entered into this year's AJ Small Projects Awards – sits in the grounds of a hospital in Scotland
Erected in the grounds of the North Ayrshire Community Hospital, this 69m² pavilion is designed to resonate with the local geology, creating a space where people can feel safe and secure, sheltering from the environment.
Graeme Massie Architects has entered Respite Pavilion into AJ Small Projects 2018, which closes for entries on Friday – you can see other entries to this year's awards in the AJ Buildings Library.
433 7757 481 4ea19b6e5e20e8e5c8beb79c9c5624e4
Architect's view
Access to outdoor environments, and the encouragement of an active lifestyle, play an important role in relation to mental illness and wellbeing. Commissioned as part of an arts strategy for the new Acute Mental Health and North Ayrshire Community Hospital campus, our Respite Pavilion provides an important place of outdoor relaxation; encouraging patients, staff and relatives to escape the wards and waiting rooms of the hospital for the open landscape of the wider campus. Three rectangular planes, each with a circular aperture, intersect to form a pavilion arranged around a stand of birch trees. The pavilion frames views and creates a more hospitable outdoor micro-climate. Seating is loosely dispersed, happily accommodating occupation by groups and individuals.
The construction explores how the earth and geology of an area can help create a meaningful sense of place, rooting it in a wider landscape context. A ground plane defines the extent of the intervention and is formed from red-toned, self-binding sands and gravels. Upon this, the structure is formed from board-marked concrete, with iron-oxide pigmentation to create an earthly affinity with the geology of the wider Ayrshire region.

JERAS Newsletter June 2, 2012By
JERAS Newsletter June 2, 2012
We have lots of news this month, and not all of it is good. The Idaho hay arrived in early May and some bales broke open while being unloaded. Feeding the loose hay required me taking multiple cartloads out to the horses. They are wild about this hay, too. Friday evening, 2 weeks ago, the horses were very anxious to get their dinner. I was taking the 3rd cartload out, wearing my hat, sunglasses and respirator (hay allergies). My field of vision is limited..I went to dump the cart into a feeder and POW! Raven, the black domestic gelding hits me from behind and lands on top of me. My face slammed into ground and he's scrambling to get off me. Apparently, he had come up right behind me and Mariah, the aggressive, alpha mustang mare, bit him in the back. Raven is a calm horse and sometimes half asleep. He is just not fast enough mentally or physically compared to the mustangs. I got hit in the head and side of my chest. He stomped on my hip and grazed across my groin and lower abdomen which ended up very swollen. I also got a black eye and my teeth went through my lower lip. I had to put a staple in it myself. My face and chin were scraped & bruised, my right ear cut. Then, I passed out that night when I got up to get a drink of water and hit the other side of my head on my concrete floor. Just another concussion to add to the collection… My black eye showed up the next day. I have a hematoma on my left hip bone which I partially drained myself and is now receding. I have severe MCS (multiple chemical sensitivities) and going to the hospital is not an option for me.
Raven is missing a chunk of hide on his back, I guess that is where she bit him…I had no idea that they were so close behind me. It is now 2 weeks later and I still have limited range of motion in my neck, chest & shoulder pain and pain in my hip & pelvis. My skull is still sore. I ended up with a huge amount of bruising down my thigh & across my abdomen. However, I feel grateful to be alive. I already have had a spinal fusion and have herniated disks in my neck. Getting clobbered like this could have had a much worse outcome.
I had to hire some help for the first week, but am now back to doing the work around here myself. I had to face the fact that Raven really did not fit in that well with the mustang herd. He also is healthy and only 6 years old. A local horse rescue offered to take him, start his saddle training and adopt him into a good home. They have very stringent adoption policies. I think this will be best for Raven and for me.
Just one day after Raven went to The Last Straw, we received these messages from Cheryl-
"….Do have a cute story about Raven, my granddaughter was brushing him today, she had a can of Pepsi, sat it on the ground, Raven picked it up, tipped it up and finished it off. Must be something he remembered from when he was a child's pet….
…Another story about Raven, he is such a card. We have a small horse ball here, my granddaughter went out to groom him today and took the ball with her. Believe this or not, Raven would take the ball handle in his mouth, dunk it in the water and throw the ball at Ariel. I need to get some pic's of his antic's, this horse loves to play."
JERAS is thrilled for Raven. Thank you, Last Straw Horse Rescue!
I posted some pictures of Nina, the jenny, to my burro friends and all agree that she is pregnant. She and Esperanza were rescued from the infamous Dennis Chavez feedlot in November and apparently both girls were pregnant. Esperanza is huge now and could foal at any time. Nina will probably foal in late autumn or winter.
Carson is about to celebrate his second anniversary since arriving. He has had a myriad of health & behavioral challenges, but is now very loving and doing well on special diet and thyroid and adrenal meds. To see his whole story, please visit his page. http://www.jersanctuary.org/dogs/carson/
Rhonda, the 9 year old beagle we saved 2 months ago, is doing well. She has gained weight and needed a low dose of thyroid medicine. However, she can be very bossy and possessive and can't be trusted with other females. So, I now have the house divided into 3 sections, to keep everyone safe. I already had to keep Shyla and Liza away from the older dogs. Rhonda also barks at everything, when she is mad and happy, both. I find her bossiness comical, but not many people would. She has a stuffed toy that she carries everywhere. She does enjoy playing with Carson. She attacks the mop and vacuum cleaner.
Here are a few videos. http://youtu.be/hjjvnCdwWiE
We agreed to take in a 20 year old mare. Our local friend had gotten her for Christmas. Penny was unable to compete with the other animals for food and was losing weight. Then someone moved in next to them with a Clydesdale stallion and have him contained by a flimsy electric fence. Mary was afraid the stallion would end up at her place and go after Penny. Penny has been here a week and is gaining weight on free choice hay and some supplements. She also needs a dental and we have also been treating her infected hooves and skin fungus. The vet will do her teeth on Wednesday. Rusty, the old Arab gelding fell in love with her immediately and they are inseparable.
Although a farrier had told Penny's owner she did not need a trim, he apparently had not looked at the bottoms of her feet. She has thrush (a fungal infection) and her bars were overgrown and laid over. I trimmed the dead frog tissue and the bars and did a bit of a mustang roll on the hoof walls. The walls have white line disease and separation, caused by the fungal infection. I am not healed up enough to do more right now. I soaked her in apple cider vinegar and then dusted her feet with antimicrobial hoof powder after I trimmed them
I had someone help put tarps up on the ends of the hay shed and they worked great to close in the hay.
Crazy Patty catches and eats insects, including bees. A bee bit her back the other day. I treated her with benadryl and steroids and she was fine the next day.
We will be getting the second half of the Pepsi grant this month. We had the backhoe out to clear for fence line and get the pad ready for the shelter which is scheduled to be installed late next week. I have to order fence supplies to fence in the 3 acres and find someone to pound in 140 T posts. I will attempt to do the insulators and run the electric tape myself, but I am not sure I can do it all in light of my injuries.
We want to thank everyone who donated to the hay drive and allowed us to get 14 tons of hay. We randomly chose names and sent out some thank you gifts last week to donors. The Equi-Spirit ball (donated by Lisa Ross- Williams and Kenny Williams) went to Jodie Sinclair.
In spite of the fact we have a full hay shed, we still have to purchase monthly alfalfa cubes, pellets for Knickers, supplements, psyllium to prevent sand colic, pig, dog and sheep food, and pay for vet bills. Please consider becoming a supporter if you are not one already. Thank you.
Cathy & the Gang at JERAS
WTH!?! Cathy!! You're having WAY too many "I SURVIVED" … horse-related, "dangerous, accidents/mishaps"! Will you PLEASE be a bit more careful ?! JEEEZUM !!!
Love You & the Gang!
Cathy I agree yikes:'(:'(:'( Love you and the Gang xxoo Thank you for YOU <3<3<3
Oh yea, I am a concussion queen myself. Horses have a way of remodeling our anatomy, don't they. Watch out plastic surgeons, there is a lot of competition out there o the range. Thank god you are alive. Love, Lynne and my bunch of 4-legged friends.
Everone looks so peaceful at the ranch, Cathy. You just absolutely rock. I just love Carson…your critters won the "critter lotto" when they found you!

Good evening!
Today I would like to talk to you about one of the most compelling graphic novel that was ever written (and drawn, obviously!): Maus, by Art Spiegelman. This graphic novel has been widely acclaimed and considered as a masterpiece since its first volume was released in 1986 (The Complete Maus, combining the two volumes, was published in 1996 in the United States). Therefore, there are big chances that you have already read this graphic novel, especially if you are a bit into graphic novels. But if you haven't read it yet, I really really hope that this article will convince you to do so.
Maus, it is two stories in one graphic novel: first, it is the story of Artie, an artist who draws graphic novels and who is working on a new graphic novel telling the story of his father, Vladek Spiegelman. This story is set in New York in the 1980s. It is also (and above all) the story that Artie is working on, the story of Vladek Spiegelman and his wife during World War II. This graphic novel is autobiographical.

Leicester is set to welcome the Riders home, as they prepare to take on the London Lions this Friday. This comes after a long stretch of away games, that hasn't seen them play at home for almost a month.
Both teams come into the game off the back of impressive stretches that has seen multiple wins, as they both look to apply added pressure to Newcastle after their defeat last weekend.
The Riders themselves are on a current win streak that is up to four after last Friday's win against the Bristol Flyers which sees them close the gap on leaders Newcastle to four points with games to play.
After falling to the London Lions earlier in the season in the BBL Cup. Pierre Hampton believes it just adds for fuel to the fire in terms of motivation: "The game was really early in the season and we didn't account ourselves out there to the best of our ability. But this time hopefully, we can execute and clean up a lot of stuff to get that all important win tomorrow".
Since the defeat, however, the team has seen been on fire and hasn't looked back. With the team returning home after a long away stretch Coach Rob Paternostro has said it's more important than ever to try and keep this momentum going: "We have been playing some really good basketball on both ends of the court. With guys playing in rhythm and more importantly for one and other."
"We have a strong desire to win and we like where we are heading. But it's important for us to keep getting better and improve on what we haven't yet improved on and we have an opportunity to showcase that in front of our own fans this Friday".
With the busy schedule just beginning, the team must prepare for the relentless grind that will have major implications on playoff seeding's come the end of the season and Coach Paternostro believes his squad is ready for the challenge: "We had a lot of time off recently, with only one game weekends. We had to appreciate those, because we now know what's coming."
The team will hope to have their winning streak still intact, with arguably the biggest game of the season just around the corner. As the Riders take the long trip up north to face there rivals Newcastle Eagles on the December the 15th.

It seems that January is the time for re-reading poetry chapbooks written by friends.
The thing I really, REALLY like about this work by Magpie is that, as with much written poetry, at first glance, it seems very different from what we hear as Spoken Word. In Magpie's case, however, all I have to do it picture her voice to realize that it is not that different after all. Presentation IS a piece of art, but it is not the only piece.
This particular chapbook is from 2012, just past the half-way point from when I first saw Magpie perform, in early 2006.
I was really glad we got to host her at VERSeFest in… what was it, 2014?
Great poet.

When choosing a enterprise concept, it's good to take a look at your strengths, talent set, and things you're already passionate about. However, for those who're willing to spend the time to study paid advertising and marketing, and can manage to seek out physical (or digital) merchandise to sell with nice margins, you can also make 1000's (or even tons of of 1000's) of dollars per yr connecting wholesalers and shoppers.

Meal kit companies have gotten increasingly common with busy individuals who haven't got the time to shop and put together healthy meals and wish to decrease their environmental footprint by lowering food wastage.
Digital advertising is a catch-all term for the whole lot about making a presence and making gross sales on-line. With the big selection of digital advertising and marketing options to consider, to not point out conventional choices, native companies increasingly need exterior help to develop and execute the perfect marketing technique. Similar to promoting on Amazon, eBay is a spot to earn a living promoting just about anything you can think of as a side business concept, with the added excitement of utilizing the public sale promoting model to generally get far more than you anticipated for that antique baseball card you picked up at an area road truthful.

The other day, I was going through one of those "woe is me" moments. You know, where nothing in life is quite like you want it (which is not dramatic in any way whatsoever!) and you feel like no one understands you. My tendency in those moments is to wallow in them. Because I "deserve" to feel this way and feed the gruesome reality. But I chose grace instead. I try so hard to do this all the time, but I don't succeed very often. I want to do something mundane to try and eradicate the feelings (which never works, by the way)--watch TV, play mindless computer games, read, etc. But this particular day, I pulled out my Bible because I know that is where attitude and feelings are going to meet TRUTH and be changed for good. I opened up to Psalm 33 and when I got through reading it, I smiled at God because He knows me so well. When I wallow, I fall right into the trap of Jeremiah 17:9, which says that "the heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?" I can't trust the things in my heart, because they always have a bent toward sin. I have known this truth for a long time and it was no surprise to be reminded on this particular day. But in Psalm 33, I found a truth that, although I've read before, never had a profound impact on me. Verse 11 says, "The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the plans of his heart to all generations." The Lord's heart is not desperately wicked and deceptive. The Lord's heart is faithful, true, loving, compassionate, slow to anger, abounding in love, steadfast, merciful, etc. I can trust the plans of the Lord's heart. I cannot trust the plans of my own heart. My own heart is wishy-washy and selfish. It follows the whims of this world far to easily. The Lord's heart is forever faithful. Strong. A rock. A refuge. Always. Always. Always. Forever and ever. Without end.
And at the end of the day, I was content in the Lord. Praise Him for His patience with my moods and emotions! And that He will lead me back to His Word time and time again!

So some of you might be surprised we are FapFaping and not WANKing today. Well we're going on vacation at the end of the week and we're so crazy busy trying to set up a Spudgy sitter and pre-film our playlists and so on, so we realized we just didn't have enough time to properly WANK. You don't want to rush our WANKing right? Also, we have an opinion to ask of you fellow blog readers. We've been getting a lot of requests to keep the FapFap segment so we're thinking of doing WANKing one week and FapFaping the next. What do you think? I know we do a bit of eating in our WANKing but it's not nearly as detailed as when we FapFap, but we don't want people to feel bored by our eating only videos. I don't know! Let us know what you think!
Forward ho!!!! Today we went for grilled fish which is basically a gutted fish that is grilled under a super hot salamander and served with a watered down wasabi sauce and soy sauce. It's so simple and so unbelievable delicious but it took us over two years to actually sit down and order one. The reason why is that Korean seafood restaurants are really intimidating. We can honestly say we've never seen English on the menu, and trying to translate Korean seafood into English can be daunting. I essentially had to drag a Korean friend to a seafood restaurant and take out my notebook to write down all the possible translations everything on the menu could be. On top of that, half the seafood items I have never seen or heard of in my life. Let me tell you, Koreans are a resourceful people who could create wonderful meals even if you dumped them in the woods with nothing. There should be a reality TV show on gourmet Korean grandmas fishing in the ocean and preparing stuff you've never seen before. Now the reason why it's so intimidating is that not all the seafood is delicious, I know, everyone has their own opinion, and our opinion is that things that taste like peroxide should not be consumed willfully. Remember this TL;DR a while back? I talked about that terrifying fish…anyways, the point today is not about terrifying fish, but sinfully delicious ones.
Going to a place that grills fish has a similar level of intimidation because we used to be unable to know what to order, but after fumbling around and making bad decisions, we've found restaurants like the Bear-Nom-Beaver-Friend. Yes, that is what we call it, and if you're wondering why we call it that, we'll explain at the end of the video today. Epic battle. There are only two types of fish on the menu, and after various searches on google we came up with Japanese Spanish Mackerel and just plain ol' Mackerel. We prefer the first one because it takes really buttery and just falls apart, almost like it's been poached in a salted butter but it hasn't even been seasoned. Just grilled to perfection. The other mackerel is good as well, but it's a much firmer fish and has that fishy tasting aftertaste. I can just hear some people going, "um don't all fish taste fishy" but they don't all taste fishy. Some of them have their own distinct flavour, like salmon or tuna. I know this because my mom (Martina here) is a pescetarian, one whose diet contains seafood but not meat, so I've tasted a lot of different types of fish in my small lifetime. I've also smelt a lot of fish being cooked in my house, so it's nice to be able to go to a restaurant and have someone make the fish for you.
I don't really want to say anymore about this since it'll give away the whole video (spoiler: we nom fish) but we wanted to make this video to encourage more people visiting or living in Korean to adventure out and eat more then just the typical dishes that are advertised (i.e.: bibimbap and bulgogi). I translated the menu so hopefully it will help you be less discouraged, and to those of you that already love eating this fish, HUZZAH! Let's drink soju and eat fish together! :D
And lastly, what good is a video if there are no bloopers?! Of course there's some silly stuff we excluded. There was a woman with a bird on her shoulder behind us, and we were amazed that she had a bird on her shoulder, but then it got loose and she started chasing it and…yeah. Fun times :D

Personally I prefer wanking I find it more interesting but fapfaping is a great insight to different foods in S.korea. So maybe you could wank every 2 weeks than fapfap for just the one week? That way everybody is happy and it keeps things interesting. Hope this helps ( ^u^ )
You guys should do a video on Loving Hut. It's a vegan restaurant with several locations in Seoul and around the rest of Korea. Please do it for us vegetarian/vegans ^^
i think Wanking one week and FapFaping the next week is a great idea ^-^
because if you'd do FapFaping every week, i'd get really~~ hungry every time xD
and I love both so alternating would be awesome ^^
I think alternating FapFaping and Wanking is a great idea!
I think only wanking is okay because like you said you also present korean food and I find it funnier :) Maybe you can detail more the food segment from the wank series?!?!

10/27/07 - Preparing Ripp-o-ween costumes, and an awesome rainbow!
Previous Batch
Next Batch
Me and James waited for the craft studio to open only to find that they didn't have any gold paint
We bought some at a hardware store instead
James gets some stuff out of his bag
He's got my helmet!
My helmet before being painted
James tests the paint
It looked good, so he got to work on his cardboard cross
It's actually coming out pretty great
Look how awesome my helmet looks!
Both props came out spectacularly
I can't believe how well my helmet came out. This was like 30 seconds of work
James chilling on the couch
Oh no! Pictures!
Some plasma equations
Check out the rainbow!
There was a huge rainbow over Wright Hall
Apparently there's a pot of gold somewhere near the train station
You can't really zoom in on a rainbow..
It was so well defined
I didn't even notice it, I guess it's true that gamers never look up
But then why did Brett notice it?
It faded a little bit
But only for a while
The rainbow is gaining back more intensity
I couldn't help but take a million pictures
A rainbow pic with nothing else in the way
It was actually really tough to photograph
I did by best though
Notice how the sky is different colors on either side of the rainbow
A double rainbow!
The sweet double rainbow again
I was struggling to keep water off my lens
The double rainbow again
Maybe Wright Hall is magical
Nah, probably not
Lots of people were checking out the rainbow and taking pictures
The view from the shelter of the gym roof
It's fading!
I tried to get it to stand out a little with a lower exposure.. didn't help much
The rainbow next to the library
Where's the other end of it go?

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- The dollar rose against the euro Wednesday, benefiting from the recent retreat in oil prices and as Europe's currency was pressured by a soft eurozone services report.
But the greenback pared some gains and fell slightly vs. the yen after the Institute for Supply Management showed activity in the services sector decelerated and inflation pressures eased sharply.
"Inflation is falling and so should any lingering speculation that the Federal Reserve could resurrect its interest rate hikes later this year," said Kathy Lien, chief strategist at FXCM. "If anything, the next move will be a rate cut and not a rate hike."
Late in New York, the dollar was quoted at 117.98 yen, compared with 117.89 yen late Tuesday. The euro changed hands at $1.2712, compared with $1.2726.
The British pound traded at $1.8862, compared with $1.8875. The dollar was at 1.2486 Swiss francs, compared with 1.2455 francs.
The euro fetched 149.86 yen, compared with 150.06 yen. See live foreign exchange rates.
Michael Woolfolk, senior currency strategist at The Bank of New York, said the dollar has proven "remarkably resilient in the face of mixed data" and ahead of the central bank meetings in Europe on Thursday.
"While the renewed decline in oil prices is certainly a contributing factor, yesterday's record high in the Dow can't be ignored either," Woolfolk said. "Perhaps the most convincing explanation for the dollar's recent stability is the failure of U.S. data to support the recent calls for a hard landing in 2007."
ISM index drops more-than-forecast
The ISM nonmanufacturing index fell to 52.9% in September from 57.0% in August. Economists were expecting a smaller decrease to about 56.2%, according to a survey conducted by MarketWatch. See full story.
The prices paid index dropped a record amount to 56.7% from 72.4% in the previous month. This is the lowest level since August 2003.
Earlier, the dollar showed little reaction to a monthly ADP employment report that showed the U.S. economy added about 78,000 private-sector jobs in September, another month of "sluggish" hiring. See full story.
After adding in the 10,000 government jobs added in a typical month, the ADP report indicates nonfarm payrolls rose by about 90,000 in September. Economists are looking for payrolls to grow about 124,000. The payrolls report will be released on Friday at 8:30 a.m. Eastern.
Separately, new orders for U.S.-made factory goods were unchanged in August after a 1% drop in July, the Commerce Department said. Economists were looking for a 0.1% decline in factory orders in August. See full story.
Housing slump limited
Strong underpinnings in the housing sector may limit the duration of the "substantial correction" underway in the housing sector, Fed chief Ben Bernanke said Wednesday, in a question-and-answer session after a speech in Washington.
The housing slump will cut second half gross domestic product, he said. "I think I would estimate that slowing housing construction will probably take about a percentage point off growth in the second half of the year and probably something going into next year as well."
He said the Fed is watching carefully to see whether the housing weakness spills over into other sectors. "To this point, other parts of the economy are remaining relatively strong," he said. Bernanke said the Fed remains concerned about inflation, but said it should continue to slow gradually. See full story.
The greenback found some support after Kansas City Fed President Thomas Hoenig said late Tuesday that the current rate of core inflation is too high.
Euro hit by soft data
Eurozone services activity index fell to 56.7 in September, versus market expectations for a reading of about 57.0.
But analysts say the number was largely dragged lower by markedly weak Italian PMI readings and overall suggested the eurozone economic recovery remains on track.
The European Central Bank meets Thursday and is widely expected to lift its interest rates by a quarter-percentage-point to 3.25%. See ECB preview.

E. 6 months later- yellow secretions cleared after suction
Initially it was incorrectly diagnosed as a bronchial carcinoma.
The material was allergic mucin with mucus and cellular debris arranged in a layered pattern. Cellular debris was almost entirely eosinophils with scattered Charcot-Leyden crystals. A Grocott stain showed multiple branching fungal hyphae, consistent with Aspergillus spp. Subsequently her total IgE rose to 750 KIU/L and Aspergillus specific RAST to 14.9 KUa/L.

Do you need a good home mortgage? Do you know what you need to get approved for a mortgage? Have you suffered through denials and need to improve your chances? Regardless of your situation, it is likely possible to get a loan by applying the tips that follow.
Prepare for your home mortgage in advance. In order to get approved for a home mortgage, you must have your entire financial situation in order. This means organizing documentation, getting debt under control and saving for a down payment and other initial costs. If you are not in good financial shape when you apply for a mortgage, you will likely be turned down.
Start early in preparing yourself for your home loan application. Get your finances in order. You need to build up savings stockpile and wrangle control over your debt. You will not get a loan if you hold off too long.
New rules of the Affordable Refinance Program for homes may make it possible for you to get a new mortgage, no matter if you owe more than your current home is worth or not. This new program allowed many who were unable to refinance before.Check the program out to determine what benefits it will provide for your situation; it may result in lower monthly payments and credit benefits.
A solid work history is helpful. A steady work history is important to mortgage lenders. Too many job changes can hurt your chances of being approved. Additionally, you should never quit your job during the application process.
You must have a lengthy work history in order to get a mortgage. A lot of lenders need at least 2 steady work history is important to mortgage lenders. Switching jobs often can cause your application to get denied. You never quit your job during the application process.
Many homeowners may give up on their home because they do not understand that they still may have options to renegotiate the terms of your loan.Be sure to call the mortgage holder.
Define the terms you have before you apply for your mortgage. Don't just do this because you want the lender to see you're keeping your arrangements, but do this so you have a good monthly budget you can stick to. This means establishing a limit for your monthly payment, based on what your income allows, not only for what kind of house you are looking for. Regardless of how great it is to live in a new home, you're going to hate it if you wind up not being able to afford it.
Make sure your credit rating is the best it can be before you want to obtain a mortgage. Lenders check your past credit history carefully to ensure you are a good risk. If you've had poor credit, work at improving to so your loan application will be approved.
Don't lose hope if you have a mortgage. Different lenders have different requirements for loan approvals. This makes it a good idea to apply to a bunch of different lenders in the first place.
Find out the property taxes before making an offer on a home. Before signing home mortgage loan documents, you need to know how much you can expect your property taxes to be. You don't want to run into a surprise come tax season.
The interest rate will have have a direct effect on your mortgage payments.Know what you'll be spending and how they will change your monthly payment.You might end up spending more than you want to if you don't pay attention.
Interest Rate
It is better to have low account balances on several revolving accounts, rather than one large balance on a single account. Try to keep yourself at half, or less, of your credit cap. If it's possible, shoot for below 30%.
Avoid variable interest rate. The payments on these mortgages can increase substantially if economic changes cause the economy; you may be facing a mortgage that's doubled soon because of a changing interest rate to increase. You could end up owing more in payments that you can't afford it.
Always be completely up front and honest during the loan process.A lender will not put their trust in you if you are untrustworthy.
Make sure to minimize debts before buying a new home. Home mortgages are huge responsibilities, so you need to make sure you can make the payments, no matter the circumstances. Having minimal debt will make it that much easier to do just that.
Closing Costs
Open a checking account and contribute to it generously prior to submitting an application for a lot of funds in it. You need to show cash reserves available for your closing costs, closing costs and the down payment. If you are able to afford a substantial down payment, you will get better terms.
Many borrowers are choosing short-term home loans. These shorter-term loans have a lower interest rate and a slightly higher monthly payment for the shorter loan period. This can save you thousands over the term of your mortgage.
Having read this article, you know what you need to have the best chances of approval for a home loan. Approval isn't hard to get, but providing what lenders want to see will ensure you get good terms as well. You can use what you learned here to get the best loan.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Frayser residents are calling their neighborhood street a danger zone.
They're dealing with a speeding problem that's gotten out of hand, and say the section of Signal Street between Whitney and Dellwood often feels like a race track.
"Man, I see people going 80-miles per hour down this street," resident Jaylen Sharp said.
It didn't take us long to catch a number of speeders.
"Little kids stay in the street everyday. It's going to be summertime too, so the whole street is going to be filled with kids now," Sharp said.
Sharp says he's seen at least one close call.
"They eventually slowed down at the end of the street, but the kids had to run out of the way. Kids shouldn't have to do that," he said.
Sharp thinks the street attracts speeders.
"It's a hill, and it's a straight shot down the hill. It's a straight shot going up," Sharp said.
That's why his dad wants the city put in speed bumps.
"Somebody is going to get hit and die. I don't want that to happen on our street," Sharp said.
Anyone can request speed bumps, but getting them is not easy.
That's because the daily traffic count needs to be more than 600 cars, or 60 in an hour.
Even then, 85 percent of drivers have to go at least 5 mph over the limit. Not to mention, the street has to be less than 40 feet wide.
Right now, it's unclear if this stretch of Signal Street meets those requirements.
So, for now, people in Frayser will have to continue dealing with the problem.

|Visualizing the article : an exploratory study of undergraduates' educational reactions to images in scholarly articles
|Vornholt, Sarah Ilysa
|Date Issued:
|May 2013
|[Honolulu] : [University of Hawaii at Manoa], [May 2013]
|The aim ofthis research is to explore undergraduate underclassmen interactions with scholarly communication and in what manner the inclusion of images impact the student's educational interests. Scholarly journals and articles are a common companion to many university courses. According to Bishop and Neumann (2000), students tend to retrieve digital scholarly journals more than their faculty. Libraries at university campuses subscribe to multiple types ofcostly educational databases to provide faculty, students, and researchers with access to scholarly materials. To provide an example, Harvard University recently performed a complete overhaul of their library subscriptions claiming these subscriptions were "fiscally unsustainable and academically restrictive" with 3.75 million dollars of their budget paid in 2011 to database providers for access to scholarly articles (Harvard Faculty Advisory Council, memorandum, April 17, 20'l2). With so much of the universities funds pouring into scholarly communication resources, the student users should feel their academic needs are met.
To begin an experimental questionnaire study was conducted at a research university on underclass undergraduate students from an introduction Information Resources and Library Science (IRLS) course. The participants were presented with brief articles on various subjects (history, business, sociology, and art) containing either an image related to the topic or text only. The participants were asked a variety of open-ended, free response questions related to their perceptions of the articles, their opinions on using them in further research, and recall information retained from the articles. The research questions center around the general impact of images in scholarly publications, but specifically (a) how will undergraduate underclassmen respond to articles with images as compared to those without images, (b) what kinds of factors influence this population's educational interests in scholarly journals, (c) how are educational interest and images linked, (d) if unprovoked, will students notice and comment on the addition of images in a scholarly article. Because the study's core is the students' unprovoked responses to images, the participants were not aware of the true nature of the study, and any references to images were spontaneous and not suggested.
This thesis is organized as such: Chapter 2 surveys the literature and experimental investigations from various related fields to information sciences. Chapter 3 details the methods and procedures adopted to study participants' relationships with images in scholarly articles, with a focus on measuring educational interests (defined as motivations behind interest in academic materials). Chapters 4-5 review and discuss the results of the experimental survey. In Chapter 6, the conclusion, it will be shown there are many different causes for students to view an article as educationally interesting, but images do appear to be a factor for many students. This indicates that images in scholarly articles can be an important enhancement to scholarly communication for students with diverse learning styles.

Oracle and SAP share a multitude of enterprise customers who want to run
their SAP solution on Oracle hardware with Oracle Database 12c. This
blog is part of Oracle's ISV engineering effort to implement joint integration projects to ensure the latest technology is
available for SAP and Oracle solutions.
** ANNOUNCING ** Customers running Netweaver-based SAP applications on Oracle Database 12c can now register as early Oracle Multitenant adopters (more info)
So, what is "Multitenant", and why should you care?!
organizations are severely challenged to achieve high levels of
database consolidation density without incurring major development and
administrative overheads. Oracle Multitenant introduces a new
architecture to Database 12c, which enables easy consolidation of
multiple databases without the effort of changing the underlying
There are many benefits to this, but key is that
standardizing on fewer moving parts in the data center helps to maximize
the value of consolidation. As the world moves toward a
cloud-computing model, primary to that journey is database consolidation.
This new architecture delivers all the savings of managing many
databases as one, yet also retains the isolation and resource
prioritization of having separate databases. Oracle Multitenant also
enables rapid provisioning and upgrades, and fully complements other
options including Oracle Real Application Clusters and Active
DataGuard. In a nutshell, it tackles major database consolidation
issues. Read this product brief for more details.
Now, lets talk about of how you install the Multitenant option.
SAP systems can be installed on Oracle Multitenant databases with SWPM (Software Provisioning Manager). We collected first-hand experience of Oracle Multitenant by installing two SAP systems on a SPARC Solaris server.
- The container database is: MTT.
- The corresponding pluggable databases are: QO1 & QO2.
Before installation, prepare the groups (oinstall, dba, oper, sapsys, sapinst), users (oracle, oramtt, sapadm, qo1adm, qo2adm), projects (MTT, QO1 & QO2), and kernel parameters for user root. Please refer to SAP note 724713 for projects and kernel parameters on Oracle Solaris 10 & 11 systems.
1. The first SAP system "QO1" is installed with the container database "MTT" and pluggable database "QO1".
Start sapinst, enter the required information as usual until the screen "SAP System Database". Enter the container database MTT as "Database ID (DBSID)" on this screen, and then continue as usual.
Download the latest SAP Kernel Packages and other required archives from SAP Support Portal. On the screen "Software Package Browser", enter the absolute path to the download folder.
On the screen "Oracle Multitenant Database" choose the option "CDB and PDB".
Perform the remaining steps of SAP installation as usual.
2. The second SAP system QO2 is installed with pluggable database QO2 within the existing container database MTT
Start the sapinst as usual, on the screen "Oracle Database", choose "Install Additional Pluggable DB in Existing Container DB".
On the screen "Oracle Multitenant Database", choose "PDB".
Perform the remaining steps of SAP installation as usual.
SAP and Oracle will continue to provide customers with additional joint statements and details at www.oracle.com and www.sap.com. For more information, please refer to:

All-of-us Express presented its first show in 1989 on the stage of Hannah Middle School. So it was with a sense of nostalgia that we returned over a decade later to what is now East Lansing's Hannah Community Center.
Opening night also marked the kick-off of our "Grow With Us" membership campaign. We invited a number of guests, held a raffle and auctioned off a large gingerbread house at an after-show party. We also had a surprise for Evelyn Weymouth, the Theatre's founder and current Artistic and Executive Director.
David Andrews (WILX Channel 10 News Anchor), honorary chair of the Grow With Us campaign committee, acknowledged our show sponsors and honored guests[*]. He then asked Terry Jolink, President of the Board of Directors of the Community Theatre Association of Michigan (CTAM), to come up on the stage. Terry presented Evelyn with CTAM's Volunteer Service Award, which recognizes an individual's valuable, long-term service to their local theatre.
Evelyn receives CTAM Service Award
Gingerbread house auction: Going, going, gone!
Invited guests included: William Donahue, Secretary of the East Lansing School Board; Tim McCaffrey, head of the East Lansing Parks and Recreation Department; Paul Preston, producer of the commercial now airing on many local television stations; and Robin Stewart, of the State Employees Credit Union.

Released a few days ago at the time of writing, the patch aiming to improve the controls and general feel of Metro; Exodus on PS4 has been a success, based on the majority of comments that we've been reading around the web.
When the game launched on Sony's system last month, it was criticised by many for the sluggish way in which the first-person shooter controlled. Some cited input lag while others claimed that the title was just far too weighty. Fortunately, this latest update, 1.03, does seem to have made a difference.
Here are the patch notes from developer 4A Games:
- General stability improvements
- General input responsiveness improvements
- Improved animation and general action timing to shave specific perceived latencies.
- Added 3rd Controller Sensitivity preset, which now has much faster camera movement acceleration, and will be set by default now for new players. If you are mid-game, you will need to manually select this preset from Options > Controller > Sensitivity to see if you prefer this adjustment
- Fixed cumulative latency cases with vsync/framerate.
- Added save backup system for PS4
- Fixed various issues with general saving system
- Fixed other general issues
Have you been playing Exodus since the update? Let us know how you think it plays in the comments section below.

Alumni Golf Tournament Raises Money, Unites Community
You need at least version 7 of Flash player. Download latest version here!
In Golf terms, the first Ranum/Westminster Alumni Golf Tournament was an "Ace."
Co-Chair Bobby Landgraf Jr. used a baseball analogy calling the day a "Homerun."
In spite of rainy, at times, cold weather about 120 golfers came out to play in the tournament at The Greg Mastriona Golf Courses at Hyland Hills. Dozens more attended the patio party after the tournament.
The day of golf was designed to bring the community together by taking advantage of the good natured rivalry between graduates from Westminster and Ranum High Schools.
There was some mild, good natured "trash talking" but in the end everyone agreed there is just one Westminster and the community needs to come together.
Money raised from the event is being split between the Hyland Hills Foundation and the District 50 Education Foundation, two groups that are focused on helping the children of Westminster.
Organizers are already looking to the future.
"This is only going to get bigger and better," said Landgraf. "People have already reached out to me about next year."
Click below to see a video of the tournament.

Things That a Water Damage Restoration Company Can Do for You
Water restoration companies deal with flood situations on a daily basis. Floods are natural disasters with devastating effects on people. Loss of life, loss of home, loss of livelihood, structural water damage to property, basement flooding, crawl space seepage and more are just some of the effects of water flooding.
Water restoration companies emphasize how important it is to follow flood safety guidelines and in times of flooding and natural disasters. People must take basic necessary precautions for their wellbeing so that they are not caught off guard. Floods can be overwhelming and destructive and individuals can minimize their impact by preparing in advance, before a flood can devastate properties, communities and lives.
- When preparing an action plan for your safety and the safety of loved ones, you must consider family pets as well and make the necessary accommodations for them prior to the flood.
- Study area maps and scout a safe high ground in case of flooding in your community. Make sure all family members know how to get to this spot from work, home or school. In case family members get separated during flooding, know how to get to this meeting place.
- When preparing an emergency kit for a flood, water restoration companies suggest to keep banking documents, identification papers, and any other important records, or at least copies of such papers, in the emergency kit as well.
- For insurance purposes, document possession of antiques, jewelry, and valuable assets and belongings. Store them away from the flood zone.
- Every household preparing for a flood must have on hand a battery-operated radio with extra batteries and flashlights, so buy these ahead of time and store them in the emergency kit.
- Over the counter and prescription medicines for all family members should be packed ahead of time in a first aid kit. Store the first aid kit with the emergency kit.
- Store enough clean water and food for all family members. Food items must require no cooking or refrigeration. If using canned goods, make sure you have a manually operated can opener as well.
Water restoration companies recommend listening to local flood news on battery-operated radios and adhering to instructions. Keep your gas tank full and store all supplies and emergency kits together, so they will be easy to access and take with you if evacuation is necessary. In case of evacuation, authorized personnel will provide instructions as to which routes are safe to take.

She's just a girl, standing in front of a boy, asking him to DIE, DIE, DIE!
Is this an awesome movie? HELL YES. Do I want to talk about much else beyond Eva Green's role in it?
Guess who is not filling her days worrying about whether her pores are small enough, her tits are big enough, and if she's underage enough to appear in a Robin Thicke music video?
Her and THIS army, thank you very much:
(But I wouldn't mind being a fly on the wall were the red carpet fashion police brave enough to ask her who she's wearing. Because "the entrails of my enemies" would make for a pretty epic response.)
How did such a bad-ass female lead land in the middle of a big budget epic adventure saga – commanding an army, no less? (And nary a pair of Lara Croft-issue, uterus-revealing short shorts in sight!) If you keep this up, Hollywood, we women might get the wrong idea. You know….that we're capable of being so much more than decorative.
Lest you think I'm making much ado about nothing, there's plenty of debate underway in the media about what being a feminist really means, and whether feminism is still relevant. Sadly, there are a lot of otherwise strong and capable women shunning the "F" word out of a fear of marginalizing themselves. (Sorry, but a measly little word can't marginalize you. Gender-based discrepancies in earning potential, and handing the power to control your body over to male politicians, and tearing other women down in order to build yourself up will accomplish that nicely for you, if that's your thing.)
Eva Green's turn as Artemisia is a revelation. At one point, after she has unleashed her Persian forces upon an embattled Greece, she declares, "I am not here as a WITNESS!" before literally leaping into the fray. It doubles rather handily as a battle cry for any actress (or woman, for that matter) who has ever suffered through a role as a thankless piece of arm candy, or supportive girlfriend/mistress/wife/mother, having been told that she must wait in the wings for a man to do something that will solidify her raison d'etre.
Any insightful and evolved human who has been alive on this planet for more than five minutes knows there is more to women than the madonna/whore dichotomy. That we can strategize about way more than wedding planning or how to pack a minivan full of groceries and offspring. And if faced with an either/or proposition, a good many of us would choose to be lifted up by an awesome career opportunity over a pair of stilettos. (But I'll totally take these, TOO! They go perfectly with my Medusa fixation.)
Oh, and……
…….THAT'S a sex scene, goddamn it! Sometimes you just gotta sheathe the swords long enough to….uh……sheathe the sword. (News flash: not all feminists are man-hating harpies. Many of us enjoy all manner of sword play.)
Alas, Artemisia ultimately dies at the hands of Themistocles. But if she had to go…..it sure as shit wasn't because she was starving herself to death trying to achieve optimal "thigh gap." As the oft-quoted Emiliano Zapata once famously declared, "It's better to die on your feet than to live on your knees." (Ahem, ladies. And amen.)
