2016 Colts Rookie Watch: Week 7
Intro: Get a weekly look into the performance of the Indianapolis Colts' rookies, continuing today with their stats and highlights through the first six weeks of the 2016 season.
INDIANAPOLIS — It's time for the Week 7 version of the 2016 Colts Rookie Watch, where we take a look at stats and highlights to track the progress of each rookie on the Indianapolis Colts' roster.
So, without further ado, here we go:• Austin Blythe, center: After being active for the first time in his NFL career Week 3 against the San Diego Chargers, Blythe got his first-career NFL start Week 4 against the Jacksonville Jaguars, filling in at right tackle for an injured Joe Reitz.
Colts @ Texans 2016 - HIGHLIGHTS
Highlights from the Colts vs Bears on Sunday Night Football.
With fellow rookie Joe Haeg getting the start at right tackle the past two weeks, Blythe has been used more in a reserve role in Weeks 5 and 6. Against the Houston Texans, he played nine special teams snaps, and even recorded his first-career kick return for 10 yards on a squib kick.• Le'Raven Clark, tackle: Clark, the Colts' third-round (82nd overall) pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, was active three weeks ago against the Jacksonville Jaguars after being a healthy scratch Weeks 2 and 3.
He would be a healthy scratch once again the past two weeks against the Chicago Bears and Houston Texans.• Matthias Farley, safety: Farley filled in at free safety for two snaps on Sunday against the Texans, and played a major role on special teams, logging 26 snaps. He recorded a tackle and also downed a Pat McAfee punt at the Houston 18-yard line in the third quarter.
Farley, an undrafted member of the secondary out of Notre Dame, was claimed off waivers by the Colts on Sept. 4 after he spent his entire offseason with the Arizona Cardinals.
After showing his abilities as a key replacement at safety for the first two weeks of the season, Farley has since been relegated back to a reserve role as the Indianapolis secondary has regained its key pieces.• Josh Ferguson, running back: After a few straight weeks with both rushing attempts and receptions for the Colts' offense, Ferguson had a somewhat more quiet of a night Sunday against the Texans. In all, he was on the field for nine offensive snaps and 12 special teams snaps.
While Ferguson did not record a rush or a reception, he did return one kickoff for 23 yards to begin overtime for the Colts, getting to the 26-yard line.
In all, Ferguson, who went undrafted out of Illinois, has 19 receptions for 127 yards on the year, with eight rushes for eight yards on the ground.• T.J. Green, safety: Green, who experienced a couple different injury issues throughout the game, logged 37 defensive and 13 special teams snaps Sunday night against the Texans, recording four total tackles.
So far, Green — the Colts' second-round (57th overall) pick this year out of Clemson — has been credited with 13 total tackles on the year.• Joe Haeg, tackle: Haeg got his fourth-career start (and fourth consecutive start) at right tackle on Sunday against the Houston Texans.
Haeg, the Colts' fifth-round (155th overall) selection this year out of North Dakota State, was once again among the the most active members on the Colts' 53-man roster on Sunday, as he played in 80 total snaps — 74 on offense and six on special teams.• Ryan Kelly, center: Kelly was picked No. 18 overall by the Colts in the first round of the NFL Draft, and, as expected, he's been firmly entrenched as the team's starting center through the first six weeks of the season.
On Sunday against the Texans, Kelly played in all 74 of the team's offensive snaps.• Curt Maggitt, outside linebacker: Maggitt — one of the top pass rushers in college football before suffering a season-ending injury early in his senior year — was signed by the Colts as an undrafted free agent out of Tennessee on May 2.
He's played in all five of the Colts' regular season games thus far. On Sunday against the Texans, he logged 10 defensive and six special teams snaps.• Antonio Morrison, inside linebacker: The Colts took Morrison with one of their two fourth round (125th overall) picks in the NFL Draft after he proved to be a tackling machine at Florida.
He's played in all six of the Colts' regular season games, but saw his defensive action cut down to one snap on Sunday against the Texans, though he did play in 23 special teams snaps — tied with tight end Mo Alie-Cox for the second most on the team.• Hassan Ridgeway, defensive tackle: Indianapolis selected Ridgeway with its other fourth round (116th overall) pick in this year's NFL Draft out of Texas.
Ridgeway appeared in his sixth regular season game on Sunday against the Texans, and was credited with one quarterback hit. He played in 26 total defensive snaps and 12 special teams snaps.
In all, Ridgeway has been credited with eight total tackles, 0.5 sacks, two quarterback hits and a pass defensed so far this season.• Chester Rogers, wide receiver: Rogers, who went undrafted this year out of Grambling State, was able to earn a spot on the final 53-man roster with a strong preseason performance.
After being active Weeks 2 and 3 but not making any catches, Rogers has slowly worked his way into more and more action in Weeks 4-6, culminating into a career-best — and team-leading — four receptions for 63 yards on Sunday against the Texans.
His most impressive play was a career-best 36-yard play in the first quarter, when quarterback Andrew Luck found Rogers on a short gain, and he did the rest from there, moving and shaking his way to the Houston 26.
In all, Rogers played in 53 offensive snaps, as well as two special teams snaps, as he also returned one punt for six yards.
Rogers has caught nine passes for 126 yards on the season thus far.• Tevaun Smith, wide receiver: Smith, an undrafted college free agent out of Iowa, spent the entire offseason and preseason with the Colts, and spent the first six weeks of the regular season on the Colts' practice squad.
He was signed to the team's active roster on Tuesday after an injury to fellow receiver Quan Bray put him on Injured Reserve.
In the preseason, Smith caught 10 passes for 138 yards and two touchdowns.

!!THIS NEEDS SVO TO WORK!!

The Idea: Each area has a list of possible targets that is priorized.

Whenever you get into a room, it tries to order the things in the room by that priority to attack.

New possible targets are added by killing them once.

Use "kconfig bashing" to toggle the script on and off.

"kconfig bashing prios" shows the list of known areas.

"kconfig bashing prios <area name>" or click on area in the list shows the target prio list and lets you manage it.

The keybinding F2 starts the automatic attacking, F3 lets you flee into the last room you visited. To change the direction
use "flee <direction>" to set a new direction.

Subject was raised in Stratford-upon-Avon, England, from age 3 to age 23, lived in Worcester, England, from age 23 to age 25, and moved back to Stratford-upon-Avon at age 25.
So, yeah, recently I, um, went to France to visit my sister with my, um, boyfriend, and we decided that instead of flying we would drive, and, um, so it was going to be an adventure for us because my daughter was doing work experience down in London at The Comedy School, um, because that's what they do when they're in year ten of school, so that was quite cool and it gave me a little bit of time cause of just finishing my studies, um, and I really felt that I wanted to just get away. So we we left about 2 a.m. in the morning and drove down to Dover, which was fine; um, got the ferry across to Boulogne, and we were absolutely shattered by the time we got to Boulogne, so we we had had a couple of beers on the ferry as you do, so, yeah, we probably, um, were kind of a little bit tipsy when we arrived, um, but we we set off and I was really terrified to drive in France 'cause I'm terrified to drive in England, to be honest; I am, I'm a very nervous driver and I don't like driving on motorways at all, so when we, um, after a while we started driving, and it, it you know we were driving for like three or four hours, and I could see that Dan was getting really tired, so I said look do you want me to drive and, um, Dan drives a Beetle, and it's quite a manly, um, Beetle; it's not a feminine one, so it was really like heavy on the steering and stuff, and I drive a little Daewoo Matiz, so it's like driving a go-kart or something but very easy for me to drive. So, yeah, I found that quite quite weird and, um, but it was great and I got really confident at driving, but I nearly ran a few people over. Um, there was one lady on a like zebra crossing and with her child, and I had to like put the brake on really hard, um; then on Le Péage I kept, um, freaking out slightly because obviously they come down the slipway really fast, and not having driven on the motorway in England much, um, then going straight onto Le Péage was kind of, um, pretty scary, but, um, got my head round it and managed to do it, so that was really cool.

Remembering Eddie Ferenz

Here are some remembrances of former Phillies traveling secretary Eddie Ferenz, who died Saturday at age 74:
Phillies president David Montgomery: "From the time that Eddie joined us in the 1960s [in 1969] until his retirement, he was a valuable member of the Phillies organization. As the team's traveling secretary, Eddie handled all aspects of our team travel and most of our club's spring training arrangements. Eddie performed his job well and gained the respect of hundreds of Phillies players in doing so. Eddie, along with others in our organization, adopted Clearwater as his second home. He was beloved in that community and by his many friends at the Phillies."
Phillies chairman Bill Giles: "Eddie was a very loyal employee in the Phillies family - well-respected by the front office and the players. He will be missed."
Broadcaster Chris Wheeler: "Eddie had one of the toughest jobs in the organization. He had to make all the travel plans work to perfection. If the planes and buses were on time, and every one had their hotel room, that's the way it was supposed to work. If there were problems, then he heard about it. Eddie did a great job for many of us for a long time. Once in while, the former minor league hockey player would get into a physical altercation with a player. One day he told us there would be no more fisticuffs for him. Why we asked? Said Ferenz, 'I just got my new teeth.' He was one of kind. A great guy and a good friend who loved spring training and Clearwater more than anyone. He will be missed."
Larry Bowa: "Eddie Ferenz was one of the nicest human beings I've ever met. He was a great traveling secretary and an even greater human being. He will be missed by all of his friends that came in touch with him throughout his career. He had a heart as big as could be and he really cared about the Phils. We will miss you, Ed, and all our prayers go out to your family."

By Kelsea Stahler | Season 2	| Episode 12	| Aired on 02.14.2014
We open with Dunbar questioning the President's spiritual guidance counselor, Dr. Larkin, about the advice he gave to President and Mrs. Walker. Larkin says it's all confidential, but Dunbar needs to find out if the President spoke about money laundering or Xander Feng. Larkin says that he offers religious counsel only and Dunbar says that he's a different denomination than the First Family. Whoops. She can prove that he offered more than spiritual counsel, but Larkin basically says bring it on. He's not talking until the President waives his privilege.
Next, the President and Frank chat in the Oval Office. He was visited by a famous boxer and compares Frank to him, because his VP has been ditching and dodging and then knocking out his opponent at the last second. Dunbar found out about the marriage counseling -- just like Frank said she wouldn't -- and Walker thinks that Frank is setting himself up for a run in 2016. Frank denies it and Walker says he knows he's full of it. (Finally, this guy gets wise!) Frank says he's paranoid, but Walker says he'd make him resign now, but it would look worse. Walker tells him to stay out of sight and out of mind. Frank says that he's managed to isolate the President from everyone including himself. That doesn't exactly instill confidence in this coup he's been constructing.
Megan's New York Times Magazine editorial comes out and Jackie gets her hands on the incendiary claims about her. She's furious that her press secretary had her stay mum on the issue, but she's sure the quotes about her being un-American are all Claire and now she's on the war path.
Claire tries to solve Frank's woes with the President by asking Tricia to talk to President Walker for Frank. Tricia says that while Frank didn't bring up the therapy, Frank did convince them to give up their travel records to Dunbar, so she's with her husband. Frank's new move is to get the doctor who gave the President Xanax. His plan is to create total chaos, because he weathers that sort of thing easily. Yeah, you're doing real hot in the current storm, ol' Frankie.
Somewhere in this mess, Gavin is arrested for being off the grid, but he insists that he needs to speak to Agent Greene. He got into the ATT and server after all and he wants to use that information.
And while he's on the warpath, Frank asks Kathy Durant to give Feng asylum in exchange for his testimony. Frank says it will save the President. She says that it's just more damage control and that's not why she wanted this job -- no kid says they want to grow up and become a professional schemer. Kathy says that Frank wants to hurt him and Frank trots out that paranoid accusation again, which is exactly what a liar would say. But Frank is asking Kathy to undermine the President. Frank says that she and the country would benefit from the fallout if he really is doing what the President accused him of. (Translation: he's doing it.) Kathy turns around and offers Feng an asylum deal. Feng takes the deal and confirms that they used the casino to mask foreign contributions. Boom. Within minutes, Tusk has been subpoenaed thanks to Feng's evidence.

Michelle and Tony agree to stay together as they go up to university but Effy still ends up in Tony's bed.


During that time, information on mandolin construction was limited, as well as my exposure to vintage instruments. As a result, creativity and intuition played an important role when it came to understanding contours, arching, graduation, tone bar placement, etc., along with developing inlays designs and construction methods. All in all, not a bad thing, though results were probably less predictable.
Quite a few early instruments were made of Brazilian or Indian Rosewood. Todd Philips and I had become acquainted around the time he joined The David Grisman Quartet and was finishing up a Brazilian mando of his own. With no opportunity to hold and examine a vintage Gibson, my early inspiration was to build a number of instruments using the "holy grail" of tonewoods.
In 1979, Laurie Lewis invited the extraordinary guitar player, Greg Townsend, and me to move down to the Bay Area to perform with her band.
Over the next few years I lived north of San Francisco, in Marin County, sharing a house with John Reischman, Dave Balakrishnan and Sally VanMeter–great people and great musicians one and all!
John performed and recorded with one of my instruments for a number of years, till acquiring his Lloyd Loar. Needless to say, having this classic instrument around the house was a huge inspiration.
While deeply involved in playing music and building mandolins, near the end of 1981 other forces intervened, pushing me north towards Washington State.
Over the ensuing years, I obtained my accounting degree and CPA license, embarking on a new career. I returned to building for a time in the mid to late 1980's, producing another 12-14 instruments, still with no numbering. A few pictures from this time appear in the Gallery pages.
For more than 12 years I practiced public accounting, primarily in the Seattle office of Moss Adams LLP. In the aftermath of a tragic climbing accident on Mt. Rainier, nearly all free time in the 1990's was devoted to mountaineering. Though this new avocation kept me in shape and was a great antidote to the stress of work, no room remained for playing or building mandolins.
In 1998, I relocated to the vibrant community of Bellingham, Washington, where I eventually took up my current position as Chief Financial Officer for a consortium of innovative companies in the wood products industry (www.verdantwood.com).
Though I always anticipated returning to building when I retired, in 2005, as several friends and relatives passed away, the urge to build again took hold. So, in 2006, I cut back my hours at work in order to carve out enough time to dive back in.
My current goal is to use whatever knowledge, skills, materials, and time is available to produce the best instruments possible, and to share some of the knowledge acquired over the years. And perhaps most importantly, to have fun!
Given my current schedule, I expect to produce six instruments per year. Please feel free to contact me if interested in a mandolin, building techniques, or anything else. I will do my best to respond.

Retail Technology Will Drive the C-store of the Future
By Melissa Kress - 09/30/2020
NATIONAL REPORT — Now that we are experiencing a momentous shift in how the convenience store industry operates is clear, but where do we go from here?
As the convenience channel, the overall retail industry and the world get turned upside down, what happens in the next generation of stores? What are the architecture considerations? What are the operational considerations? Where are the trends going, especially given "the new normal" as a result of COVID-19?
Marty Wolfe, IBM's vice president and chief technology officer for the retail, consumer products and agribusiness industries, believes the changes fall into four overarching buckets: customer expectations, new competition, changing complexity on how you operate stores, and increased costs.
"Changing how the store operates, the changing consumer needs, has a real impact on what happens in the store itself," Wolfe said, presenting during the recent Conexxus 2020 Annual Education & Strategy Conference. "Technology in the store will scale differently based on the behavior of consumers."
Many principles of the channel's new normal revolve around the concept of contactless and not going into the physical store as often. As Wolfe noted: "The idea of contactless, the idea of touchless, the idea of not going into the store nearly as much will likely persist throughout all of 2020 and 2021 to some level."
So, what does it take to make an existing store — or future store — more agile?
Wolfe explained that there are a number of things convenience retailers need to be concerned about; areas that can inhibit, or have already done so up to this point.
"If we think about it from a technology perspective, there are physical store limitations, the layout of the store, the planogram of the store, the deployment of staff within the store, the movement of inventory," he said. "Then, there are the underlying technical problems as well."
Technical problems include: complex IT environments, lack of internal resources, aging hardware, continual updates/patches, and budget issues, he noted.
There is an opportunity, however, for retailers to apply new technologies that enable rapid innovation, hyper and local experiences, and new operating models, he added.
Thinking about future trends, Wolfe said the most important break down into six areas:
Channel shifts: not just digital, but multiple touchpoints.
Anytime, anywhere: consumers shop in "micro moments" and expect a seamless personal experience.
Asset-light model: cloud-based and SaaS capability delivered for rapid deployment, as well as gig models for service and ecosystem.
Partnership: third-party brand for marketing, merchandise and operations.
Intelligent operations: real-time artificial intelligence (AI) enabled operations.
Automation: AI, IoT and robotics.
The Conexxus 2020 Annual Education and Strategy Conference was held virtually August 11-13. Based in Alexandria, Va., Conexxus is a nonprofit, member-driven technology organization dedicated to the development and implementation of standards, technologies innovation and advocacy for the convenience store and retail fueling market.

Accenture Interactive's new Innovation Center
Cute conversation: R&D Director Alexandre Naressi chats with a robot
If you like conversing with robots and your watch, but hate driving behind the wheel or shopping in stores, then the future is just for you. This might be one conclusion drawn from a number of thought-provoking presentations given by Accenture managers at the opening of the IT & management consultancy's Innovation Center in Sophia Antipolis last week.
Company experts are clearly convinced that the teething problems of new consumer technology such as wearables, driverless cars, the "internet of things", and delivery drones will soon be resolved. Talking robots are also about to enter call centres and shops in order to deal with customer enquiries. Welcome Brave New World?
Nestling between Nice and Antibes in France's glamorous answer to Silicon Valley, the centre is operated by Accenture Interactive, a part of the firm's digital business unit that provides digital marketing and commerce services to companies. Accenture is an innovation partner for seven of the top 10 global retailers, including Tesco, and major fmcg companies such as P&G, Nestlé or Unilever.
The interior of the new 500m² complex is designed to reflect the structure of the human brain: a "rational" half for the development of Artificial Intelligence etc. and an "emotional" half with meeting rooms for workshops and creative brainstorming sessions.
The star turn at the opening ceremony was, of course, the robot. The latest generation of robots goes beyond speech. Voice recognition technology, combined with facial expression and body language interpretation systems, enable our metallic friends to analyse human emotions and adapt to our moods.
This seemingly improbable advance was demonstrated by Accenture Interactive's R&D director Alexandre Naressi who chatted with a dinky little robot (humans find them less threatening when they are small and have childlike features) about his favourite colour. As an excellent party trick, the robot, whose name we did not learn, turned its eyes and even the lighting red when Naressi revealed that this was his favourite colour. So one up for robots on man's hitherto best friend: the dog.
Anatoly Roytman: "Humans are still smarter than machines, but this won't be for long"
"Humans are still smarter, but they will soon be beaten by Artificial Intelligence. In fact, there is very little about the human brain that can't be reproduced and optimised," says Anatoly Roytman, global MD of Ecommerce at Accenture Interactive. "The only question is what our clients are to do in the interim."
Accenture certainly can't be accused of twiddling its thumbs and is currently working on a whole range of projects from the development of new apps to online delivery services which anticipate rather than just react to customer orders.
One of the company's main strengths, however, is the development of software and digital technology platforms to enhance marketing performance. These aim to optimise service quality and thus the experience of online customers. At call centres, for example, voice analysis technology can help staff judge a client's mood. Provided callers have given permission in advance, operators can also see their latest comments on social media such as Twitter and Facebook.
Mark Curtis: "Technology can help deal with customer complaints in such a way that they become big marketing chances"
Combined with the data a company already has on a customer, this can prove an invaluable tool for achieving client satisfaction. A very impressive Mark Curtis, co-founder of Accenture design & innovation subsidiary Fjord, is convinced that this will help call centres move "from orders to solution-oriented conversations" at numerous "emotional interfaces".
Curtis also emphasises how near Customer Relationship Management (CRM) is to professional marketing. "If a customer complaint is dealt with quickly and professionally by means of enhanced technology, it does more than avert a possible crisis, it can gain a company valuable marketing brownie points." Curtis therefore predicts that the roles of Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) and Chief Information Officer (CIO) will become increasingly blurred.
Customers can also be ranked according to their relative stature as "influencers". Is the company, for instance, talking to one person only or to someone who has 2,000 followers? Inevitably, this type of hierarchy gives rise to a number of moral questions concerning Web 2.0.
In fact, every technological advance seems to bring a whole new set of human problems with it. This has been recognised by Accenture which regularly appends a discussion on ethics to its research papers.
How, for instance, will the blind cope with quiet electric vehicles? Will driverless cars lead to a higher rate of alcoholism among the middle classes because everyone can drink what they like when they go out for a meal? And, despite collision avoidance technology, could delivery drones start dropping from the sky or pose a security threat?
Most people are probably more worried about their job. Will artificial intelligence create a legion of unemployed and thus cause social unrest? In the UK, for instance, it has been estimated that one in three workplaces could be taken over by a computer or robot within only 20 years. While admitting the problems, Roytman is optimistic about the potential for good: "Robots could free human beings from drudgery and enable them to do more value-added, creative work."
Rob Harles: "If you don't shape your whole corporate culture towards customer satisfaction, then your competition will do it for you"
Perhaps surprisingly for an IT-driven consultancy, Accenture is not a tech fetishist. "The main problem for many companies is not technology itself, but how they are organised," says MD Robert Harles, who is responsible for social media solutions at Accenture Interactive. What, for instance, is the point of social media monitoring whose insights are not channelled to the right people within the organisation?
Due to silo-shaped hierarchies, numerous managers will often deal with individual client aspects, but it is rare for one, preferably top-level, person to be responsible for the overall customer experience. "The whole corporate culture must be shaped towards providing customer satisfaction. If you don't do this, then your competition will do it for you," Harles warns.
Meanwhile, as technology advances exponentially, one must ask whether most businesses are ready for the huge changes ahead? After a visit to Sophia Antipolis, the answer is almost certainly: no.

In Search of Authenticity - Humanising the nature of innovation
"The Machines are Coming" by Zeynep Tufekci in this past weekend's NYT is relevant to this discussion. Her concluding paragraph sums it all up: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/04/19/opinion/sunday/the-machines-are-coming.html


In a recent post, I discussed things to know about chronic kidney disease for people with diabetes.
Among the things to know is that too often doctors, including nephrologists, don't prescribe drugs that are proven helpful for the kidneys.
There are several reasons for this inadequate care for people with chronic kidney disease due to diabetes.
A recent study deals with one possible reason. Results of this study are similar to a previous analysis.
Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, abbreviated ACE inhibitors, and angiotensin receptor blockers, abbreviated ARBs, are the drugs with the best evidence for kidney benefit.
When an ACE inhibitor or ARB is started on a person with reduced kidney function, an increase in blood level of creatinine may occur. Blood creatinine, more accurately serum creatinine, is a measure of kidney function. In general, the higher the serum creatinine, the worse the kidney function.
So an increase in creatinine scares the doctor. She might just go ahead and stop the drug. She might be worried that the ACE inhibitor or ARB is making the kidney function worse because the creatinine went up.
It turns out that an increased serum creatinine is common within the first 2 months after an ACE inhibitor or ARB is started . And those people who have the increases in creatinine at the start of therapy actually have the best results over time from the drug. That means they have the most benefit at slowing the rate of loss of kidney function. Their kidney function is more likely to be stable over time as compared to people whose serum creatinine does not change soon after starting the ACE inhibitor or ARB.
An increase of up to 30% in serum creatinine is okay. The increase in creatinine over the first two months or so actually means the drug is working.
So if you have chronic kidney disease, abbreviated CKD, from diabetes, ask if you are on an ACE inhibitor or ARB. If not, find out why not. If you are not satisfied with the answer you get, consider getting another opinion from another nephrologist.
After all, what can we offer people with CKD to prevent their kidney function from getting worse? Here are four things to know: ACE inhibitor or ARB therapy, good blood pressure control, good blood sugar control and don't take things that might harm your kidneys. That's all we have for now.
There is hope for additional therapy. An agent in development called bardoxolone shows promise.
In the meantime, be sure you do all you can and keep in mind these things to know about chronic kidney disease.

Norfolk State transfer RaShid Gaston picks Xavier
Shannon Russell
srussell@enquirer.com
Six-foot-nine power forward RaShid Gaston received attention from multiple colleges after announcing plans to transfer from Norfolk State, but only one was the perfect fit.
Gaston committed to Xavier after a weekend visit. The 240-pound transfer will have one year of eligibility with Chris Mack and the Musketeers after his sit-out season in 2015-2016.
"Honestly, I fell in love with (Xavier)," Gaston said. "I went down there with my mom and my sister and they fell in love with it too. They just make you feel at home. I love the style of play there. I love how Coach Mack and his staff – they're about business but they're so down to earth. They're such good guys."
Gaston said he also garnered interest from Kent State, South Florida, Cincinnati, Iowa State, Kansas State and DePaul, among others. He liked Xavier for its proximity to his hometown of Warren, Ohio (about 20 minutes from Youngstown), and the ease of travel for mom Lisa Carter, aunt Gwen Stargell and sister Gabrielle Jackson.
Gaston averaged a team-second 15.5 points and a team-high 9.6 rebounds last season for the Spartans. The then-junior added 1.4 assists and 1.2 blocks, started in 28 of the team's 32 games and was a four-time Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference defensive player of the week.
Gaston said he wanted to explore playing elsewhere his final season in hopes of furthering his basketball options after college.
"I feel like making the transition would give me better exposure, and just better player development and things like that," Gaston said.
The Big East will provide opportunities for Gaston to hone his talent against high-caliber competition. The player will also fulfill a key frontcourt role for Xavier, practicing against James Farr and Jalen Reynolds next season and providing a veteran presence in 2016-17 when Farr has graduated.
Gaston said he wants to improve his footwork during his sit-out season and is eager to work with assistant coach Mike Pegues in that regard. He also plans to work on his outside shooting consistency, particularly from 15 to 20 feet, and ball-handling skills.
Gaston expects to be on campus by mid-July. In the meantime, he's helping at a summer kids' basketball program near home while taking classes at Kent State.
"I'm going to start the second session of summer school (at Xavier) and start meeting all the guys and working out," Gaston said.

Democrats threaten a brief, pointless government shutdown
John SextonPosted at 5:21 pm on December 8, 2016
Senate Democrats are preparing to force a brief, pointless government shutdown this weekend, the first evidence of their newly acquired taste for obstructionism. Senate Democrats are demanding Republican re-negotiate a bill which would extend health insurance for miners. However, members of the House are already on their way out of town meaning the time for negotiating is over. From Politico:
Democratic Sens. Joe Manchin (W.Va.) and Sherrod Brown (Ohio), two senators up for reelection in 2018 from states won by Donald Trump, are leading the charge to get a better deal from Republican leaders, a drive that's resonating with the rest of the 46-member Democratic caucus. But Republicans say they will not renegotiate a four-month extension of coal miner health benefits and that Democrats have lost all leverage after the House passed the spending bill, 326-96, and then promptly left town…
"A lot of our members feel extremely strongly about miners," said Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), the incoming Democratic leader next year. Asked how they can negotiate with the House already done for the year, Schumer said: "That's all I'm saying."
The reason Schumer isn't saying more is because what Democrats are doing makes no sense except when viewed as a tantrum. In order to keep the government running without interruption, the Senate needs unanimous consent to vote on the bill by this Friday but that would require cooperation from Senate Democrats. The Washington Post reports:
The Senate will now need to vote on the legislation by the end of Friday to avert a government shutdown. But it would need unanimous consent to take up the bill in time to meet that deadline and Democrats are threatening to withhold their support for such a procedural move. The Senate would still be able to vote Sunday to pass the appropriations measure without this consent, but it would force a roughly one-day government shutdown.
After the House passed the spending bill Thursday a spokesman for Paul Ryan said, "The House just took its last votes of the year." In other words, nothing else will happen on the House side until members of Congress return to work in January. Again, Democrats know this is over but are looking for a symbolic win of some kind. The GOP seems to be taking a 'wait them out' response. Sen. John Cornyn tells Politico, "They're not going to get what they want. They ought to actually be grateful for what they got."
Naturally, Democrats are already trying to blame the shutdown they intend to cause on the GOP. Sen. Tim Kaine said, "If Republicans want to shut it down, they will." Is anyone in the media going to buy it?

The Microsoft Warrant Decision
By M. James Daley, CIPP/US & Natalya Northrip, CIPP/US, CIPP/E on September 8, 2016
Posted in Data Privacy, Information Governance
Recently, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit sided with Microsoft Corporation and global privacy advocates in the case of In the Matter of a Warrant to Search a Certain E-Mail Account Controlled and Maintained by Microsoft Corporation, No. 14-2985, 2006 WL 3770056 (July 14, 2016), by holding that the issuance of a warrant to obtain private emails stored on a Microsoft server in Dublin, Ireland, constituted an impermissible extraterritorial application of the Stored Communications Act, 18 U.S. Code §§ 2701 et seq. ("SCA").
The Microsoft decision coincides with a rise of international tension over the data privacy interests of foreign customers of U.S. electronic communications providers. This tension was heightened by the Snowden revelations in 2013, sparking EU concerns about "unfettered" U.S. government surveillance, reaching a crescendo last October, when the Court of Justice of the EU, invalidated the fifteen year-old U.S.-EU Safe Harbor as not providing an "adequate" level of data protection. Thereafter, the U.S. and EU Commission rushed to develop a new EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework to replace Safe Harbor.
As some commentators have noted the Second Circuit's ruling may incidentally help EU/U.S. data transfer mechanisms, including model contract clauses and the Privacy Shield program to survive this scrutiny. See Kenneth Withers, M. James Daley, and Taylor Hoffman, In Re Microsoft: U.S. Law Enforcement Not Entitled to Email Stored in Ireland (Aug. 28, 2016). While the Second Circuit's ruling temporarily defused an explosive issue in EU/U.S. data protection relations, it left unresolved a number of practical issues regarding cross-border government investigations under the outdated SCA.
The Microsoft case concerned a warrant requested by U.S. law enforcement authorities, ordering U.S.-based Microsoft to disclose all email from a certain individual's account, in connection with an ongoing drug investigation. Microsoft disclosed certain non-content account data stored in the U.S., but declined to produce the emails themselves, which were stored only in Dublin, Ireland, the data center closest to the country indicated on the account holder's registration. Instead, Microsoft moved to quash the warrant as it applied to the email content, on the ground that it was an impermissible extraterritorial search and seizure. The United States District Court for the Southern District of New York denied Microsoft's motion to quash, and held Microsoft in contempt for failure to comply with the warrant.
Microsoft appealed the contempt ruling to the Second Circuit. The crux of Microsoft's argument was that the SCA does not expand the territorial limitations of traditional "warrants" and that the government's authority does not extend beyond the United States-controlled areas. The government, on the other hand, argued that it was simply compelling disclosure of documents, regardless of how the instrument was labeled, and that its SCA warrant could be construed as a subpoena, which would require a recipient to produce information, regardless of where that information is located, so long as it was within the recipient's "possession, custody, or control."
The Second Circuit held that the SCA, enacted three decades ago as part of the broader Electronic Communications Privacy Act (the "ECPA"), did not contemplate extra-territorial application of its warrant provisions. Instead, the Second Circuit found that the focus of those provisions is protection of a user's privacy interests. The Second Circuit held that the SCA does not authorize a U.S. court to issue and enforce an SCA warrant against a United States-based service provider for the contents of a customer's electronic communications stored on servers located outside the United States.
In his concurring opinion, Judge Gerard Lynch expressed his skepticism that the mere location abroad of a server on which the service provider has chosen to store communications should be controlling, but agreed that this may be the default position to which a court must revert in the absence of guidance from Congress.
Our decision today is thus ultimately the application of a default rule of statutory interpretation to a statute that does not provide an explicit answer to the question before us. It does not purport to decide what the answer should be, let alone to impose constitutional limitations on the range of solutions Congress could consider.
[Lynch Op. 17-18]
Likewise, commenting on the win, Brad Smith, Microsoft's President and Chief Legal Officer, indicated that the time has come for Congress and the executive branch to modernize the law in line with the current state of technology. Few would argue with this need. Indeed, some legislative changes are already in the works. For instance, the Email Privacy Act of 2016, H. R. 699, 114th Cong. § 3 (passed by House Apr. 27, 2016), would amend the ECPA to prohibit cloud-services providers from disclosing contents of communications of their customers without a traditional probable-cause warrant. In addition, one day after the appellate decision, the Obama administration released a legislative proposal intended to provide foreign governments with a streamlined MLAT process for requesting U.S. tech companies to share electronic content and conduct wiretaps for criminal investigations. This proposal, likewise, would require amendments to the ECPA.
U.S. companies doing business internationally and engaged in cross-border transfers should continue to closely monitor the upcoming legislative and judicial developments in this area.

captures Alan's New York, stripped of its glittering surface: a strange, deserted place.
A comic nihilist who trashes sensitive social issues, Granville himself has experienced homelessness, drug addiction and mental illness. But his humorous style of describing them succeeds in touching us on emotional, intellectual and philosophical levels.
Its atmospheric black and white photography, by award-winning cinematographer Wolfgang Held gives the film the beat feeling of the 1950's. Alan's poetry finally leads us to the mysterious salt mountains which evoke freedom and the power of imagination.
A film that offers the chance to be swept along by a cinematic experience.


Following on from its renewed commitment to provide a garbage collection service that delivers value for money, the Department of Environmental Health (DEH) is asking public cooperation to ensure that collectors can promptly access and remove garbage without mishap.
Residential customers are asked to ensure that all garbage is placed in large garbage bags rather than individual shopping bags.
Outdoor garbage containers should be made from sturdy materials in order to withstand weathering, and wear and tear. They should also have a tightly fitted cover and handles.
The containers must be accessible to collection crews at all times. If bins are inaccessible, then garbage will be collected on the next scheduled collection day; provided it is accessible to the collection crew. Containers must be securely stored inside of a proper enclosure when not being collected. They should never be placed outside of an enclosure in any area which will impede the flow of traffic.
To report any issues with their collection service individuals should call the DEH at 949-6696 or 949-8793. They can also send an email to dehcustomerservice@gov.ky, visit the DEH's website at deh.gov.ky, or message its Facebook page at www.facebook.com/DEHCaymanIslands.


A guy contacted me from what seemed to be a decent size company. It was a company related to one of my DMOZ categories which is how he found me. We had a couple of nice phone conversations which led to him asking for a proposal from me. Since my proposals take about two hours to put together I scheduled it for the following week. I put together my normal proposal with summaries of all the different points on the website that need correction along with costs for fixing the problems. Of course my proposals also include an outline of ongoing SEO services and the associated fees. When the potential client received the proposal he called back very annoyed that the proposal did not include every detail of my plan. He said that he and his partner were disappointed in it and that it seemed to be a "templated proposal." In all my time of doing this, I've only heard that once before. It was a company that was hiring their own inexperienced SEO to be in-house and wanted expert direction without paying for it. My proposals are detailed enough for someone who is not executing the plan. After quite a bit more talking it became quite apparent that all they wanted were instructions for an SEO campaign. For example, I said that his HTML was invalid and that we'd correct that – he demanded to know how. Not "how" like we'll check the code with the W3C validator and make corrections, he wanted step-by-step instructions for interpreting the W3C reports and implementing the fixes.
While this strange discussion was going on they were also trying to get a DMOZ listing from me even though their site didn't qualify for one because it was a thin affiliate site. (strictly lead-gen; collecting and selling applications) They kept insinuating that if I gave them a DMOZ listing and the detailed proposal I would for sure get the contract. It was pretty clear that they were just trying to get the DMOZ listing and steal my instructions then run.
I say all this for the benefit of less-experienced SEOs. If someone pushes for in-depth details of exactly what you are going to do to help their site become more search engine and user friendly, put up a red flag in your mind. I'm not saying that you should entirely obfuscate your plan, but don't give a detailed how-to. Let them know that you will be link-building, but don't reveal your proprietary methods.


At the Bear Center, someone caught a nice picture of Ted on his mountain of straw. Gray foxIt's harder to catch as good of a picture of Holly because of the reflection of the camera tube in the protective plexiglass that keeps Holly from smearing the lens. Still, someone caught the best picture possible.
Blue jayWhen the fox sits on the railing so calm and beautiful, looking at me at my desk like that, I can't help snapping a picture. It would seem a waste not to.
Heading home early for the big Thanksgathering Celebration this evening. It's a musical feast, and I got a personal call from a man I cannot say no to. Ray Thielbar puts the whole thing together each year. Ray is also the man who made the beautiful carved signs that are all over the Bear Center. He was the Vice Chairman of the North American Bear Center board for nearly a decade. Besides that, Judy McClure is the pianist, and she took a month off from chemo to be able to play and to have a recital with her piano students. HollyShe asked me to come, too. They know I always do. They play old hymns that old people know and can belt out. Donna is helping with the food for the fellowship afterward. It's Ely's biggest church event of the year. All the churches come together to make it a joint event. I'll see people I haven't seen for a long time.


F.R.E.D. will help you to fi nd the optimal luff trim for your sail. The mark is found in the upper sail window and serves as an orientation point to create the perfect luff tension (loose leech).
The large reinforcement at the sail top avoids abrasion and wearing out whilst rigging.
The top opening is enlarged for an easier mast insertion. The adjustment buckle is placed behind the mast; unnecessary webbing can be stowed in the top opening.
Lightweight mini battens take control of the leech while twisting and avoid detrimental leech fl utter. In this way, the window fabrics are spared and the longevity of the sail is predefined.
PVC tabs on the upper batten pockets prevent wearing out and abrasion whilst rigging.
The Internal Trim Batten system is completely integrated into the batten pocket and the battens can stay tensioned in the sail. The profi led end piece offers additional protection against abrasion.
A PVC braid, sewed on the bottom batten pocket, protects your sail from abrasion while uphauling and waterstarting.
The Reduced Boom Length design shortens the boom length. The handling is much easier and feels more compact. The sail control is signifi cantly improved. A shorter boom is generally stiffer and will assist in maintaining the sail stability and profile.
The boom length is printed beside the clew. The mast lenght is patched on the mast protector.
The printed height scale at the boom opening helps you to easily remember your personal boom position.
Double seams form the most stable connection between individual panels and different materials. They are used in stress zones as well as in areas of high tension and make your sail robust and durable.
All seams in the significantly stressed foot area are protected by Dacron coverings. A PVC edging from foot to the first batten protects the leech edge against your board's nonslip coating.
The integrated triple pulley has large easy turning stainless brass rolls which greatly reduce the effort required for sail trimming. Also, if you prefer, the rolls are removable to allow the use of standard downhaul pulley hooks.
The GUNSAILS logo that is sewn on the sleeve keeps it open at the boom opening area like a clip and thus mast insertion is much easier.
For very easy packing away and storage: Just roll the sail up and fix the elastic retainer.
On the inside of the protector you will find a closable mesh pocket which can hold e.g. your downhaul surplus.
The large mast foot protector can be pulled back whilst rigging. The loop eases the initial pulling down of the sail. The uphaul can be comfortably inserted through an opening in the protector.

Trailer shows Buckeyes ready for Big10 Championship…and beyond hopefully!
The Ohio State Buckeyes are looking to creep into the College Football Playoffs but first must take care of business Saturday night against Northwestern in the Big Ten Championship at Lucas Oil Field in Indianapolis.
The Buckeyes, who are favored in the game by two touchdowns, are led by Big 10 Player of the Week Dwayne Haskins. Haskins threw for 318 yards in last week's thumping of Michigan and surpassed Drew Bress' record for most touchdowns in a season with 41.
