S'pore urban planners to tackle challenges in future city planning
By S Ramesh | POSTED: 18 Sep 2013 6:07 PM | CNA
Singapore's urban planning agency, the URA (Urban Redevelopment Authority), is taking a serious look at ways people can work from home and in offices in suburban areas outside the city.
URA Chairman and former senior civil servant Peter Ho made this point on Wednesday at a conference titled "Lee Kuan Yew and the Physical Transformation of Singapore", adding that a key issue in the planning process is whether everything has to be done in the city.
Discussing the role played by Mr Lee Kuan Yew in the physical transformation of Singapore, Mr Ho noted this was done through leadership and good governance, and sometimes with a dose of tough laws.
But speakers at the conference also said that as the population grows, the challenges for urban planners will evolve as well.
Chairman for Centre for Liveable Cities Lui Thai Ker said: "The bigger challenge for HDB is that with the continuous increase in our population, how are we going to make a long term plan to accommodate them with no loss in the quality of life? In the process of doing that, we also have to think of new MRT lines, new bus routes."
Mr Ho said: "We can't have the cake and eat it unless we can find innovative ways to use our space. And technology is beginning to make that positive.
"There has been some recent talk about underground space and I think underground space, if you put more of your functional types of activities underground, (it) opens up enormous possibilities. We will have to continue to innovate along the way. There is no such thing as an end point; it is always work in progress."
CEO of PUB Chew Men Leong said: "It is not possible to eliminate flash floods completely because nature is a powerful force and given the land constraints that we have, we can only build our capability up to a certain level of capacity. Impact of climate change is something we have to be concerned about; it's extremity of weather we have to be concerned (about); it's flash floods we have to be concerned. I think even more critical, (is) how we are going to prepare ourselves for prolonged drought."
Executive Director for Centre for Liveable Cities Khoo Teng Chye said: "When it comes to planning for a flood, our engineers have had to grapple with (Singapore being) a tropical country, we get lots of rain and we get lots of intense rainfall, so our drains have been designed for a certain intensity of rainfall and that has stood us well over the years.
"Even as we urbanise progressively over the years, the incidents of flooding has drastically reduced but with climate change and changing weather patterns it is very difficult to design what used to be an intensity that doesn't happen, now seems to happen more often.
"When you talk to the climate experts or the weather experts, they cannot give you a clear answer because these kinds of things need many years to play out before you can scientifically conclude that the weather pattern has changed. But there seems to be enough evidence over the past four (or) five years that things have changed so much… that PUB, without waiting for the final conclusion from scientists, have already taken certain decisions to minimise the risk of flooding in Singapore."
In his opening address at the conference, organised by the Lee Kuan Yew Centre for Innovative Cities and the Centre for Liveable Cities, former President SR Nathan said: "This physical transformation of Singapore is a story of foresight, political will and people working together to beat what seemed at that time, despairing odds. It is a story of the challenges to find and implement the right policies, which has made our physical development and living conditions what it has become. But at its heart, it is about our story — how our hopes, dreams and aspirations have been transformed. It is the story of our lives."

Where an injured employee's medical history and medications raised a fact issue about the possible role of risks personal to the employee in an otherwise unexplained fall, the employee was required to eliminate an idiopathic explanation for her fall, held an Ohio appellate court [White v. Buehrer, 2017-Ohio-8254 (Oct. 20, 2017)].
White sustained a broken hip on June 15, 2015, when she fell as she walked through an exam room to deliver mail and broke her hip. During the initial hearing, White presented evidence that the floor had been "tacky" at the time of her fall. She also presented an expert, who opined that at the time of White's fall, the floor may have been stripped, but not yet re-waxed. The employer produced testimony that the floor was not tacky at the time of the fall. The hearing officer denied the claim and the Industrial Commission "refused" the appeal.
White appealed the denial to the state trial court and sought summary judgment, arguing that there were no genuine issues of material fact that her injury occurred in the course of her work and arose from her work and that her injury arose out of a workplace condition. The Bureau of Workers' Compensation ("BWC") contended the fall could have been caused by an idiopathic condition, due to White's preexisting medical condition, but the trial court found that the BWC was required to raise that issue as an affirmative defense and could not raise it for the first time as a response to White's motion. The trial court agreed with White's contention that there were no issues of fact to be determined and found that White was entitled to participate in the workers' compensation program.
The appellate court said that White bore the burden to demonstrate that there was no genuine issue of material fact about the existence of idiopathic causes, and she failed to do so. Therefore, she was not entitled to summary judgment, as a matter of law, as she had suggested and as the trial court had ruled. The appellate court reversed the trial court and remanded the matter for further proceedings.

Here's one of my older posts about Lake Geneva.
Lake Geneva Estates was built to feature the rich and legendary history of Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. It is our hope that you find this site both educational and entertaining.
As near as geologists can tell, Geneva Lake was formed about 20,000 years ago, as the last glacier traveled across North America. The lake is over 7 miles long from east to west and over 2 miles wide at its widest point from Williams Bay to the Lake Geneva Yacht Club.
There are approximately 22 miles of shoreline, and the surface area is 5,263 acres. Geneva Lake is the 2nd deepest spring fed lake in Wisconsin, with depths reaching 142 feet just off Black Point in Fontana. The lake is fed entirely by underground springs, and has no surface inlets. The only outlet, the White River, in the City of Lake Geneva, feeds into the Fox, Illinois, and Mississippi Rivers.
The earliest residents in the area were the Pottawatomi Tribe, who had migrated here in the 1600's from northern Wisconsin. Their best-known leader was a chief by the name of Big Foot, which the beach on the East end of the lake has been named in honor of.
Although the Wisconsin territory had been explored as early as 1634 by French explorer Jean Nicolet, there never was an official recorded sighting of the lake until 1831. The Native Americans called the lake "Kishwauketoe", which loosely translates to mean Clear Water or Lake of the Sparkling Water.
In 1834, a government surveyor named John Brink was sent through the territory to survey the land and name the landmarks. When Mr. Brink saw the lake, he was reminded of Seneca Lake, near his hometown of Geneva, New York. It was at this time that the lake became known as Geneva Lake in honor of his hometown.
Several factors were involved in the growth of Geneva Lake as a resort for Chicago's wealthy. First of all, in the 1870's, numerous men from Chicago came here to hunt and fish, and their love of the area convinced them the Geneva Lake would be the ideal place to build a summer home.
Transportation was the second factor. The Chicago & Northwestern Railroad opened a line from Chicago to the Village of Lake Geneva on July 6, 1871. This allowed people to reach the area with ease.
The third and most important factor was the Chicago Fire, which occurred on October 8, 1871. Many of the families displaced by the fire actually escaped the burning of the city by getting on the train and coming up here to the lake.
Many of these people stayed here at the lake through the fall and winter of 1871-72, while they waited city homes to be rebuilt. Within a few years, when the city and its industries were back on their feet and money was available, more and more Chicagoans began selecting Geneva Lake for their summer getaways.
Even today you will find that about 80% of the summer residents here have roots in Chicago.

No matter how hard you try to keep up with it, you floors take a beating. From spills, drips, muddy shoes, and whatever the kids bring in on there shoes, keeping your carpet clean seems like a never ending job. In this article we are going to share some tips on keeping your carpet clean and looking good for years to come.
A quick once-over doesn't do much. Slow and steady does the trick.
Remember to replace or empty vacuum bags when they are half to two-thirds full. Read the full article here.
But how often do you need to vacuum? Well a good starting point is once a week. However, the more traffic the more often you need to vacuum. Double it for kids and pets. In fact, it would be ideal to run a vacuum over the highest traffic areas daily if possible. Keep in mind, all that work will be for nothing if you don't have a quality vacuum cleaner.
While you can make a huge difference yourself with vacuuming, eventually its going to take more. Dry vacuuming will only remove so much of the soil, eventually some of it will bind to the fibers. When you reach the point where your carpet looks dirty even after vacuuming, its time to call in a professional. Professional carpet cleaners have the solutions and equipment to deep clean your carpets, bringing them back to new again.
Don't let the price of hiring a professional carpet cleaning service convince you to try it your. The machines you rent from your local grocery store are simply nowhere near as powerful as the equipment that professional carpet cleaners use. One of the biggest problems with these machines, is that they lack the power to remove all the water used. This can leave your carpet very wet, and for a long time. Another problem is that they leave a lot of chemical residue. A recommendation from SteamPro Carpet Cleaning is that if the homeowner does attempt the DIY method, to "mix your cleaning solution in a pump up sprayer and apply it to the carpet, then use clean water in your machine as a rinse." That way you are rinsing the cleaning detergent, not running it through your machine. This can help prevent cleaning residue. Also, put some fans out to try and speed up drying.
No matter how careful you are, spills are going to happen. When it does, make sure to grab a towel as soon as possible. Keep in mind, you want to blot spills, not scrub. Excessive scrubbing can and will damage your carpet fibers. Its also good to use chemicals only as a last resort. This goes back to the chemical residue problem. Any chemical left to dry in the carpet will attract dirt and appear dirty after a period of time. So use the chemicals sparingly, sometimes it only takes a towel and some water to completely clean a spill up.
Hopefully this gives you a head start on keeping your carpeting clean. Keep reading the Clean Advisor blog for more helpful tips.

Film Review: Misery
1990's Misery.
One of my favorite Stephen King books and film adaptations is Misery. The book came out in 1987, with the film following shortly in 1990. Tonight, I watched the film for the first time in years. It used to be one of those cable re-watches, but it's been a while. In short, the film follows Paul Sheldon (played by James Caan), a romance novel writer of books about a character named Misery, who is tired of writing about Misery. You could even say he's miserable writing about Misery. He wants to flex his writing muscles about something else. In fact, he writes such a novel and on his way from Colorado, where he likes to write, to New York to deliver the book to his literary agent, he crashes during a snow storm.
I get such Nurse Ratched vibes from her.
At first, fortunately for him, a former nurse named Annie Wilkes (played by Kathy Bates) finds him, rescues him from the wreckage and nurses him back to health, all the while assuring him that she's his, "number one fan." But, it turns out that she's a psycho who used to kill babies on top of the fact that she's stark raving mad that he killed off the Misery character. She holds him hostage at her home, forcing him to write Misery back into existence.
His literary agent and the local sheriff, Buster (Richard Farnsworth), are trying to track him down. One of the things I appreciated about the film was that Sheriff Buster wasn't treated as the stereotypical small town bumbling fool of a cop. Instead, he was earnest and taking Sheldon's disappearance seriously. He got so close to figuring it out and rescuing Sheldon, which makes his death at the hands of Annie at the end all the more devastating to watch. I put my hands over my eyes, knowing it was coming!
I think the genius of the film (and the book) is that it is such a small cast of characters and for the most part, we are there with Sheldon in the little room, with broken legs and at the mercy of this psycho fan, Annie. Kathy Bates plays her almost to comedic effect because of how goofy the character is, like not liking cuss words in Sheldon's new novel or snorting with her hog "affectionately" named Misery. But it all adds up to an unsettling picture of a woman who isn't well, to say the least. Bates rightly won the Best Actress award at the Academy Awards. She's genuinely frightening at times and of course, the sledgehammer scene is iconic at this point.
I would say it's one of the best adaptations of a Stephen King film. It's true to all the characters involved, with terrific performances and it captures the mood of the film: again, that unsettling atmosphere, waiting for the crap to hit the fan and then bracing each time it does. And there's the thriller element of wondering just how Sheldon is going to get out of this predicament.
Caan was great, too. He really sells the … misery.
Even if you haven't read the book, on its own merits, the film is worth seeing, and despite it having such a small cast and largely taking place in one room, it moves fast. It's taut. But still, I'd highly recommend the book, too. In fact, I'm due for a re-read myself to refresh myself on the details the movie doesn't include, despite being a rather faithful adaptation. Arguably, the sledgehammer scene, which isn't in the book, is a better version of the horror Sheldon endures.
The reason the film and book endure to me as among the best of King's books and the best film adaptations is that it's so grounded in reality rather than using any of his trademark supernatural elements. That makes it all the more terrifying.
Look away!

This is one of my favorite movies! Kathy Bates' acting is amazing, and, like you said, it's almost even more terrifying because the events are not supernatural and more realistic. I've never read the book but would definitely love to, especially if it's similar to the film!
Bates is incredible! She really makes the film and even reading the book, it's impossible to not picture her now. Still highly recommend it though! It's one of King's best and shorter, too.

Compass Diversified In Buy Range After Clearing Handle Buy Point
Compass Diversified (NYSE: CODI) on Tuesday cleared a cup-with-handle base above a buy point of $32. Trading volume was more than triple the average mid-session. Tuesday's breakout followed a gain...
By Kate Stalter December 8, 2021
Compass Diversified (NYSE: CODI)
is a modern spin on the old-fashioned holding company. On Tuesday, it cleared a cup-with-handle base above a buy point of $32. Trading volume was more than triple the average mid-session.
Tuesday's breakout followed a gain of 6.96% Monday, in volume 300% heavier than normal.
Compass describes itself as "a publicly-traded investment and holding company that provides shareholders with unique access to niche middle-market businesses – an attractive segment of the market historically reserved for traditional private equity or other legacy players."
This is a value proposition that should be of interest to investors who want an easy way to access high-growth small companies that are not yet listed on the capital markets. Compass' portfolio companies include BOA, The Sterno Group, 5.11, Altor Solutions, ergobaby, Advanced Circuits, Velocity Outdoor, Arnold Magnetic Technologies, Marucci, and Lugano Diamonds. That represents wide diversification of industries.
In the model of venture capital and private equity firms, Compass aims to exit its investments for a profit. In July, it announced the sale of Liberty Safe for a gain of $72.7 million.
Compass went public in 2006. While the stock has more than doubled in price since then, it's worth drilling down a bit more to understand how it's bounced back from a steep decline in December 2018. In the past three years, the stock has climbed 158%, outpacing the S&P 500's three-year return of 65.46%.
According to MarketBeat earnings data, Compass topped earnings and revenue views in the past eight quarters.
When the company reports its fourth-quarter early next year, analysts expect earnings of $0.54 per share on revenue of $508.39 million. Both would mark year-over-year increases.
In addition to the earnings and revenue results, highlights of Compass' third quarter include:
Completed the sale of Liberty Safe for an enterprise value of $147.5 million and recorded a gain on the sale of $72.7 million
Closed on the acquisition of Lugano Diamonds and Jewelry for an enterprise value of $256 million
Paid a cash distribution of $0.36 per share on CODI's common shares in October 2021
Paid a special cash distribution of $0.88 per share on CODI's common shares in September 2021
Declared quarterly cash distributions of $0.453125 per share on the company's 7.250% Series A Preferred Shares, $0.4921875 per share on the company's 7.875% Series B Preferred Shares, and $0.4921875 per share on the company's 7.875% Series C Preferred Shares
"CODI's strong momentum continued in the third quarter as we generated outstanding results primarily due to heightened demand at our leading consumer brands," said Elias Sabo, CEO of Compass Diversified, in the earnings statement.
"With our permanent capital structure giving us flexibility through economic cycles, we have remained focused on building businesses for the future and supporting the brands we own," he added. "We are proud of our subsidiary teams, who have worked diligently to expertly navigate this current inflationary period by adeptly managing supply chains and prioritizing our customers, and believe they continue to be well-positioned to grow."
In the earnings conference call, Sabo elaborated upon supply-chain and labor shortages that have the potential to be a drag on results in the current quarter.
The company updated its guidance, based partly on the sale of Liberty Safe and the acquisition of Lugano Diamonds, both of which occurred in the quarter.
"The net effect of the M&A transactions we completed were to increase our guidance by $10 million on a pro forma basis," said Sabo. "This would have made last quarter's guidance range increase to $360 million to $380 million on a pro forma basis to include the acquisitions and divestitures."
"As you will see from this analysis, we are raising our guidance by $20 million on the bottom of the range and $10 million on the top of the range," he added.
The stock is very much in buy range at the moment, as it's trading around $32.11, only a few cents above its buy point. However, the market has been in whipsaw mode lately, and a broad pullback could drag the stock down. As long as you monitor whether it remains within about 7% from that buy point, it could be worth holding.

Q: How to sort arguments of Times in nonstandard order? Is there an elegant way to sort the arguments of Times in e.g. TraditionalForm so that factors go to the front and state variables to the back? Are there methods to prevent certain transformations, like moving everything into the numerator as in the example?
par = {p, k, Subscript[k, a], Subscript[k, b]};
expr = -A Subscript[k, b] B p k (1 - p) 1/(B + A) Subscript[k, a]

$-\frac{A \ B \ k \ (1-p) \ p \ k_a \ k_b}{A+B}$
What I would like to see is that symbols are ordered according to their appearance order in par, symbols not specified are sent to the back and fractions are not transformed at all, something like this:
$-(1-p) \ p \ k \ k_a \ k_b \ \frac{1}{A+B} \ A \ B$
There are many problems when manually sorting arguments of Times (here I only did a reversal for sake of simplicity):
expr /. Times[x_, y__] :> ((Inactive@Times) @@ Reverse[{x, y}])

$k_b*k_a*p*(1-p)*k*\frac{1}{A+B}*B*A*-1$
for example unnecessary *-s and numerical factors like -1 explicitly displayed.

A: You can create your own ...Form wrapper that will format Times as you want it.
Let's start with ordering function that can be used in SortBy. It puts numeric coefficients in front, expressions present in par are ordered according to their position in par, all other expressions are moved to the end.
ClearAll[par, order]
par = {(1 - p), p, k, Subscript[k, a], Subscript[k, b]};
order[_?NumericQ] := 0
order[x_] := Replace[Position[par, x, {1}, 1], {{i_}} :> i]

Now a small helper "wrapper" that will vanish after conversion to boxes. It will also remove boxes resulting from HoldForm used directly inside wrapper.
ClearAll[vanishingWrapper]
MakeBoxes[vanishingWrapper[expr_], form_] ^:= MakeBoxes[expr, form];
MakeBoxes[vanishingWrapper[HoldForm[expr_]], form_] ^:=
    First@MakeBoxes[HoldForm[expr], form];

Now the main ...Form function that, when converted to boxes, wraps some sub-expressions with our vanishingWrapper:
ClearAll[istvanForm]
MakeBoxes[istvanForm[expr_], _] ^:=
    With[
        {heldExpr =
            HoldComplete[expr] /. HoldPattern[Times][args__] :>
                With[
                    {eval =
                        With[
                            {heldArgs =
                                Replace[
                                    SortBy[HoldComplete[args], order],
                                    pow_Power :> vanishingWrapper[pow],
                                    {1}
                                ]}
                            ,
                            Function[Null,
                                vanishingWrapper@HoldForm@Times[##],
                                HoldAllComplete
                            ] @@ heldArgs
                        ]}
                    ,
                    eval /; True
                ]}
        ,
        Function[Null, MakeBoxes[#, TraditionalForm], HoldAllComplete] @@
            heldExpr
    ]

When Times function is converted to TraditionalForm boxes, its arguments are sorted, unless Times is inside HoldForm. This sorting is done in addition to ordinary sorting, occurring due to Orderless attribute, when Times is evaluated. To prevent this additional sorting, istvanForm wraps Times with HoldForm and vanishingWrapper. So we get boxes coming from HoldForm[Times[...]], but thanks to vanishingWrapper all additional boxes from HoldForm are gone, so when we copy resulting expression there will be no HoldForm inside it.
When Power expression, with negative numeric exponent, is found directly inside Times, it triggers special formatting rules putting everything in one fraction. To prevent this special formatting, istvanForm wraps all Power expressions on first level of Times with vanishingWrapper. So that, when expression is converted to boxes, special formatting is not triggered.
To make istvanForm behave like proper ...Form wrapper we must add it to $OutputForms:
If[FreeQ[$OutputForms, #, {1}],
Unprotect@$OutputForms;
    PrependTo[$OutputForms, #];
Protect@$OutputForms;
]& @ istvanForm

Now let's see istvanForm in action:
-A Subscript[k, b] B p k (1 - p) 1/(B + A) Subscript[k, a] // istvanForm

A: I shall adapt my code from How do I reassign canonical ordering of symbols? with the addition of a rule for the Power[_, -1] form.  I assume that any Variables not in par are to be placed at the end.
reorderIstván[expr_, par_List] :=
 Module[{h, rls},
   rls = MapIndexed[x : # :> h[#2, Replace[x, rls, -1]] &,
     DeleteDuplicates @ Join[par, Variables @ expr] ];
   HoldForm @@ {expr /. rls} //. h[_, x_] :> x /.
    x_^-1 :> RawBoxes @ FractionBox["1", ToBoxes[x]]
 ]

Now:
par = {p, k, Subscript[k, a], Subscript[k, b]};
expr = -A Subscript[k, b] B p k (1 - p) 1/(B + A) Subscript[k, a];

reorderIstván[expr, par]

-(1 - p) p k Subscript[k, a] Subscript[k, b] A B 1/(A + B)

reorderIstván[expr, par] // TeXForm

$-(1-p) p k k_a k_b A B \frac{1}{A+B}$

Pete Metzelaars
Chargers fire six assistant coaches
Published January 9, 2016 | By Greg Williams
On Monday the San Diego Chargers announced that six assistant coaches have been released. Heading the list is Offensive Coordinator Frank Reich. Offensive Line coach Joe D'Alessandris, Tight Ends coach Pete Metzelaars, Wide Receivers coach Fred Graves, Defensive Line coach Don Johnson and Assistant Offensive Line coach Andrew Dees complete the list.
Head Coach Mike McCoy survived the coaching staff purge and received a one-year vote-of-confidence contract extension in the process.
Someone has to take the fall for this season and the injury excuse apparently does not extend to everyone on the Bolts coaching chain-of-command. Reich did add a welcome wrinkle with the pistol offense, intended to give QB Philip Rivers more time to scan the field and spare some of the punishing hits. With all the offensive line injuries Rivers took as much of a beating as he did when he played under center in the seasons before Reich's arrival. The short-passing, ball-control offensive philosophy worked for one season and has died with the absence of an effective running game.
Personally, my biggest indictment of Reich was his steadfast belief in his system, unable or unwilling to make adjustments. Without a true feature back the running game needed to utilize space. Danny Woodhead led the team in receiving and had roughly half as many yards rushing (641 to 336) as feature back Melvin Gordon on half the carries (184 to 98).
Sweeps, bubble screens and misdirection plays would have made Woodhead a larger threat that could've actually created more running room for Gordon. Secondly, Gordon ran for 2,500 yards in his last season at Wisconsin out of a traditional I-formation behind a fullback. Why not at least experiment with that formula? If Gordon gets half that amount in yardage he wins the Rookie Of The Year award easily.
Lastly, using the short-range, timing-based, ball control offense is a good idea but also takes away a major weapon from Rivers. It's known around the league that Rivers is one of if not the best deep ball passers in the league. The deep ball has been absent from the game plan in the last few seasons. It's not all Reich's fault. The Chargers do not have a receiver who can take the top off a defense with his speed the way a younger Vincent Jackson and Malcom Floyd did earlier in Rivers' career.
Of all the names on the list, Reich's is the most justified. Jackson and Metzelaars look to be collateral damage. When Gates and Green are on the field they were key elements in the offense and produced more often than not. Gates finished third on the team in receiving and Green finished fifth. The receiver corps was decimated with injuries starting with Keenan Allen and continued with Stevie Johnson, Floyd and Dontrelle Inman joining him on the sidelines at various times through the season.
The line coaches have to deal with the players they're given. Both lines had a shaky year. Both lines underperformed but there was no consistency because of all the injuries. Notable by his absence on this list is Defensive Coordinator John Pagano. According to NFL.com the Chargers finished 27th in rushing defense, 14th in passing defense and Pagano stays on the team while the offense finished 9th in the league and the Offensive Coordinator is fired.
Just or not, there will be a lot of new faces in the Chargers locker room in 2016 on the staff and on the nameplates above those lockers. Let's hope they're good ones.

Position Outlook: Tight end
San Diego Chargers All-Pro, future Hall-Of-Fame tight end Antonio Gates made headlines this summer when he said he wanted a lighter workload this season. After years of dealing with debilitating plantar fasciitis, Gates looked like his old self as he caught 12 touchdowns, one short of his career high of 13 touchdowns in his breakout 2004 season.
The next touchdown Gates catches will be the 100th of his career, the rarest of air for a tight end. To date, only one tight end has caught more than 100 touchdown passes in NFL history, Kansas City great Tony Gonzalez with 111. Gates will do it in three fewer seasons than Gonzalez.
This will be a season to watch number 85 for a number of reasons. Barring injury, he is most assuredly going to catch number 100. It will be worth keeping an eye on Gates all season to see if Philip Rivers can get him 13 touchdowns this season, placing him at No. 1 all-time for touchdown catches by a tight end.
Fittingly, like Rivers, Gates is also in the last year of his contract.
Can all this talk of wanting a lighter workload be indicative of wanting to complete an unspoken farewell tour in one piece? No one is more deserving of a victory lap than man that revolutionized the tight end position by using his basketball background as a standout frontcourt player at Kent State to become the greatest undrafted free agent in Chargers history.
While it is possible Gates could continue his career beyond this season, the writing is on the wall. It is time for the heir apparent to Gates' throne to step up and claim it. Who will do it? Let's look at the candidates.
Ladarius Green: Now entering his fourth season on the roster, the 6'6″, 240 lb. Green was expected to have a breakout year last season. Instead, Gates found the fountain of youth and played most of the snaps last season. Green has shown flashes of potential on offense. The highlight of his season was a 60-yard touchdown grab against Kansas City, where he showed great agility and surprising breakaway speed for a man his size. He's had three seasons to learn from the master, now it's time for him to put up or shut up.
John Phillips: The 6'5″, 250 pounder is a seven-year veteran. Used for protection, Phillips proved to be an asset due to his skill as a blocker. During the 15 games he played for the Chargers last season, he lined up at fullback in addition to his tight end duties. He caught one pass for one yard last year, but it went for a touchdown. A knee injury landed him on IR for the last game of the season, but he looks to be ready to go when the new season begins.
David Johnson: Like Phillips, Johnson (6'2″, 260) is entering his seventh season. Signed away from the Pittsburgh Steelers last offseason, Johnson was primarily used as the de facto fullback. He was a good physical point of attack blocker and utilized on special teams. He had one reception for four yards. Expect more of the same this season unless an unknown makes a stronger case for his spot.
Kyle Miller: Two weeks ago the Chargers claimed Miller off waivers from the Atlanta Falcons. The 6'5″, 260 pound product out of Mount Union is a second-year pro. He played one game with Indianapolis in 2012 and was cut from the Miami Dolphins in 2013. Last season he was on the Falcons practice squad. Miller is the son of former NFL quarterback Mark Miller. At 27, he is still looking for his first official NFL reception. In college, he was a three-time Ohio Athletic Conference first team selection as a tight end. He'll have plenty of opportunities to show what he can do in training camp.
Dave Paulson: The (6'4″, 240) former Oregon Duck spent the first two years of his NFL career (2012, 13) in Pittsburgh. The Chargers signed him to their practice squad shortly after the beginning of last season. Coming from Oregon, Paulson was recognized as a dependable pass catcher and leader. His ability to block will most likely determine whether he will make the team.
UDFA rookies Eric Frohnapfel and Brain Parker: Frohnapfel is an intriguing prospect from a size standpoint. He stands 6'7″ and weights 235 pounds. As a member of the Marshall Thundering Herd he accounted for 37 catches for 420 yards and five touchdowns. If his blocking and route running are on par, he could be an unstoppable red zone target after the staff gets time to coach him up.
The 6'4″, 260 lb. Parker logged similar numbers in college at Albany, where he collected 39 balls for 500 yards and five touchdowns. The two are camp bodies but the scouts have seen enough impressive tape on them to extend invites and give them the chance to make the team. The Chargers obviously won't carry seven tight ends on the roster, but three on the active roster and one on the practice squad is very likely.
At this point Green, other than Gates, is the only person I would pen onto the opening day roster. Everyone else is expendable. All of these players will have the advantage of being able to watch how a future first ballot Hall-Of-Fame player at their position prepares and trains. They will also have the benefit of having a legend of the game as their position coach in Buffalo Bills' great Pete Metzelaars. Metzelaars won a Super Bowl ring as an offensive quality control coach for the Indianapolis Colts. It's up to them to learn and adapt as much of their expertise to their game as they can.
We all look forward to seeing this camp battle play out. Who do you think will secure the role of Rivers' next security blanket?

Your chance to taste Stone fresh…
December 2, 2010 by Editor
Our call for Australian beer lovers to say "no" to black marketed beers from US brewery Stone caused a monumental reaction amongst the beer thinking and drinking public here and overseas. It also sparked a fascinating debate about all manner of issues relating to transport, storage and freshness of beer.
We're not sure what we will be trying, but it will be fresh...
While Stone's Greg Koch isn't willing to chance his beer to the rigours of international shipping, he's still keen for Australians to try his beers.
It turns out that Stone Brewing's Production Coordinator, Ben Lee, has parents who live in Sydney and Ben is heading over for a very brief visit over Christmas. Greg Koch his sending him over with his luggage filled with as much fresh Stone as he can carry…not very much admittedly, but enough for Australian Brews News to offer a few lucky beer lovers the chance to sit and sip some fresh Stone beers with Ben. We're not sure what he's bringing, but it will be fresh.
In conjunction with our generous supporters, The Local Taphouse at Darlinghurst, we have ten places to give away for a very exclusive tasting of fresh Stone. Five places will be going to members of the Darlo Ale Stars – keep an eye on the Taphouse blog for details of how to win – and five places will be going to readers of Australian Brews News.
The event will be taking place at The Local Taphouse at Darlinghurst at 6.30pm on Thursday 23rd December.
For your chance to be at the tasting, just email the editor explaining in 25 words or less why you'd like to try fresh Stone beers. Entries close 5pm next Friday, 10 December. Winners will be announced on Monday 13th December by email. To be eligible to attend you need to be in Sydney on 23rd December. Tickets are not transferable.
Australian Brews News is made possible through the generous support of:

but it's not shipped refidgerated so really no one should drink these beers…

DND is not working. Tried the trick in previous post/thread to set logging to Debug 1 on both machines. Did not work... but did see a nifty error on the Ubuntu/Client machine which said something like "Drag and Drop not Enabled". So then I went to try and find the log file in /var/log/ and the file is not there. So I manually created the file (via touch) and then chmod to 777 and chown to me. (I mention this only b/c some newbie may not know why the file is not being created.) Log-file is now being generated. Yea! I notice this cool error on the Ubuntu/Client machine when trying to drag and drop a file.
[2017-06-28T11:22:37] DEBUG: drag drop not enabled, ignoring drag info.
I would attach the log files but they are not allowed. Debug 1 produces many many many lines. Not sure anyone wants to read them as a graphic. Please advise if you need more info to diagnose.
Hi @Jimmy B. We don't support drag and drop on Linux machines (yet). Though our developers are on "All hands on deck mode" for it to have that supported. Though we can't provide an ETA yet, rest assured that we are doing our best to make this happen.

Almost every industry faces environmental controversies. The green industry arguably has more than its share. According to our critics, we are creating too much noise and dust, polluting the water, poisoning our children, destroying natural habitats … the list goes on. And — horrors! — we're doing it for aesthetic reasons. That's why many activists hold disdain for what you do, not simply how you do it. So don't expect the controversies to go away anytime soon.
Environmental activism has taken on a sort of spiritual quality. It's become a religion of sorts … a Holy War. The result is, among other things, an end-justifies-the-means mentality. No sacrifice is too great for The Cause.
What's been sacrificed? Scientific truth.
Many of the controversies affecting the green industry require answers that only sound science can provide. And more often than not, science does not provide the answers that environmentalists would like to hear. In fact, environmentalists have consistently lost the scientific debate on many key issues.
But losing the scientific battle does not mean losing the war. In fact, activists seem to be winning. Despite mountains of evidence to the contrary, activists have done a fair job of convincing Americans that we're in an environmental/health crisis brought on by living in a toxic wasteland.
Would it surprise you to know that, by most measures, our air and water is cleaner now than 30 years ago? Or that overall cancer rates are flat or declining? In fact, we live longer now than we ever have. And most of the health problems that Americans face are self-inflicted, resulting from lack of exercise, poor diets, smoking and drug and alcohol abuse.
So how have activists been so successful? Public relations. For example, almost every time a new environmental regulation is proposed, it's "to protect our children." It's repeated so often, you might get the impression that activists love your children more than you do. The intent, of course, is to tie their message to one of the strongest and noblest of emotions: our love for our children. This would seem to put activists' motivations above questioning, as well as disarm their opponents. Who would dare to oppose them knowing that doing so will be portrayed as not caring for children?
So what are activists cooking up now? It's a relatively new concept called the Precautionary Principle. It's the latest strategy of the environmental movement and threatens a complete end-run around science.
The Precautionary Principle has been defined this way: "When an activity raises threats of harm to human health or the environment, precautionary measures should be taken even if some cause-and-effect relationships are not fully established scientifically." If this doesn't scare you, take a closer look.
Proponents call this a "Better safer than sorry" approach. Undoubtedly, the common-sense sound of it will make it a powerful public-relations tool. But I have a different take on it. It sounds to me more like "Regulate first, ask questions later." It is an appeal to ignorance.
The problems this could create are enormous. With no burden of proof, it's carte blanche for regulators to do as they please. Activists already are gearing up their efforts to make the Precautionary Principle the foundation for environmental regulations in the United States. For example, groups currently are lobbying for this to be the basis of all state policy in Massachusetts. Be assured, such efforts will spread to many other parts of the United States.
Don't confuse my aversion to the tactics of environmentalists with opposition to good stewardship. On the contrary, accusations against our industry only make it more imperative that every one of us act responsibly. More than ever, we must show we care about keeping the effects of our maintenance activities where they belong: in the landscape.
But we must also be vigilant in asserting the truth about what we do. Many activists think "artificial" landscapes have no place in the world. Actually, carefully tended landscapes and golf courses are an asset both to the environment and to our quality of life. Be proud of your contribution to that.
Whether turf is part of the problem or part of the solution is a question that's been hotly debated in the context of water pollution. With Total Maximum Daily Load regulations on the horizon, this is a topic that will get only more contentious. This month's cover feature tackles this tough issue by looking at turf's contributions to non-point-source pollution, beginning on page 12.
It may sound mundane, but sprinkler zoning can have a significant impact on the problem of runoff and water pollution. The University of Arizona's Jeffrey Gilbert discusses how to put, and keep, irrigation water where it belongs in "In the zone," on page 28.
The essence of environmental stewardship can be summed up in that admonishment we've all heard a thousand times: Don't litter! As applicators, properly disposing of a certain kind of litter — empty pesticide containers — is a key part of your job. Learn more about this in this month's "How To: Dispose of Pesticide Containers" on page 40.


The third exhibition and the first conference of Iranian producers held by Tehran Urban and Suburban Railway Operation Company (TUSROC) and participated by groups of domestic officials, industrialists, academics and researchers. This exhibition was at Goft-o-Gou Park within an area of 4,000 m2 during Dec. 13 – 15, 2016.
During the event, the deputy for transportation operations of TUSROC pointed out to the significant steps taken in supporting domestic manufacturers in recent years and added: "thanks to all the support undertaken in urban administration, we are now at 50% and 49% self-sufficiency in supplying frequently used parts across DC and AC fleets, respectively".
Regulation of the third section of national standards on safety, manufacturing of 100%-Iranian subway platform screen doors and the manufacturing of metro third rail by an Iranian knowledge-based company, and localizing of communication transmitters by researchers at Toosi University of Technology were among the most important achievements celebrated at this exhibition.
Moreover, during the exhibition, 50 memorandum of understandings (MOU) were signed in between TUSROC and outstanding companies within the scope of rail transit, among which were the MOU's finalized on research and development in three areas, such as guiding elements for deaf people, designing, and constructing of steel parts for the specific path for blind and visually impaired people, and consideration of rail industry-related metal parts with precision casting.
After three days of holding, the 3rd exhibition of Iranian producers in metro industry came to end with a closing ceremony participated by the CEO of TUSROC.


It is almost possible to predict the future based on how things are currently trending in terms of popularity. Here are nineteen things that we will see in the next decade if current popular trends continue.
We all know it's coming. It's only a matter of time.
Ridiculous? Dangerous? Certain to cause injury? Sounds like Crossfit.
For the future generation that is deathly intolerant of being offended.
Soon you can cruise the big box store and stock up on all the things you need to never leave your scooter again. Pity it doesn't have a toilet...or does it have a toilet?
Given the recent increases to the US military budget, this would in no way surprise me.
My question is, how much do you want your toiled to know about you and your personal information? Yeah, if you thought hacked photos were bad, can you imagine your hacked toilet data? No thanks.
Progress only moves forward, and you can't unring that bell. I thought the placement of saline eye drops and cookie mix were well placed.
Who needs Federal regulations and firearms restrictions? This is America! We need military grade hardware to defend our homes from threats, people we don't like, and our overwhelming sense of personal inadequacy.
Eventually, this merger will happen. The antitrust laws won't hold forever.
Because what the UFC really needs is more simultaneous bloodsport battles.
After all, how is this any more pointless or boring than baseball?
Anyone can make a playlist and keep a party going. Literally anyone. Right?
After all, it worked so well for the GOP in 2016.
C'mon, this one's a gimme. Hipsters of the future will be dressing like the Amish to be ironic, We all know it.
As he proceeds on his never ending quest to destroy another generation's childhood with a blockbuster movie franchise.
You can never make too much money off of nostalgia for your media's legacy.

Miracle superfoods that don't live up to their health hype
You'd think these foods can cure all the world's problems — but none of them live up to the health hype.
By Team Coach|9:00pm Nov 28, 2017
Judging by how it's taken over supermarket shelves and hip cafes, you'd think almond milk was a cure-all for all the world's problems. But while it makes a damn fine-tasting latte, almond milk just isn't any healthier than regular cow's milk. While it has some advantages (the most obvious being for those who are lactose-intolerant), it also has downsides (it lacks the calcium and other nutrients in dairy). The main reason to make the switch is for the taste, rather than for the supposed health benefits.
Apple cider vinegar suppresses appetite! Helps you lose weight! Regulates blood sugar! Fights heart disease! Even lowers the risk of cancer! At least, those are the claims — but in reality, there's practically no scientific evidence backing any of them up. Though celebrities hail apple cider vinegar as a fix for your gut, experts say you're better off improving the quality of your whole diet rather than relying on a "miracle" elixir.
Like everything else on this list, kombucha is unlikely to do you any harm (provided you make it safely if you're preparing it at home). But it's also unlikely to live up to the sensational claims made about it. While the drink is relatively low in sugar and may promote good gut health, there's still not a lot of solid evidence backing up those claims — so drink it if you like its peculiar beer-y taste, but not necessarily for health benefits that might not be there.
It's beloved by the Paleo set, who claim bone broth boosts immune function, improve gut health, and calm inflammation — among other supposed benefits. But once again, there just isn't enough scientific evidence yet bolstering those claims. Bone broth can absolutely be included in a healthy and balanced diet, but there's no proof it should form the foundation of that diet.
A 2017 poll found 75 percent of everyday people consider coconut oil a health food — but just 15 percent of nutrition experts agree, making it one of the most divisive foods. While it has some upsides there's just not enough quality science supporting the many claims about coconut oil, and some experts believe its high saturated fat content spells trouble for your cardiovascular health.
Coconut water is spruiked as an excellent way to hydrate your body — but plain old water is even better at doing that, for a fraction of the price. Coconut water's other claimed benefits (blood pressure reduction, source of antioxidants, and protection against diabetes, among others) aren't really strong enough to withstand much scrutiny. There's no denying it's a refreshing and delicious beverage — it's just not the superfood star it's presented as.
If you like the taste of water with lemon squeezed into it — go forth and drink! But if you're downing a glass every morning to kick-start your metabolism, keep your gut health, and rid yourself of toxins… well, you're wasting your time. There's no evidence lemon water does any of those things. Be aware that lemon water could even have a downside: it's an acidic fruit, and that acid can wear away your teeth enamel.
Post-workout shakes can be a quick and convenient source of protein — if you need it. Thing is, most of us don't. There's almost no chance you're protein deficient, or that you need a higher amount of protein than you're already getting from your diet. So ignore the hype making out like protein supplements (which are often rather pricey) are a must if you want to build muscle, lose fat, or improve your overall health.
We've all heard the myth that drinking cranberry juice will help clear up a urinary tract infection. Some studies do indeed support that finding — but they tend to be studies supported by the cranberry industry. There's not actually much evidence cranberry juice is good at preventing or treating UTIs.
Acai berries likely have some health benefits — but they're benefits shared with blueberries, blackberries, raspberries and other members of that family, rather than a unique property. Acai bowls are better at being delicious breakfast treats that look great on Instagram than they are at being health foods: they're actually likely to be colossal sugar bombs, putting them in the "sometimes food" category.
