Last year a Chicago, Illinois car crash early Thanksgiving morning resulted in the death of 2 people, and the off duty Chicago police officer that caused the collision was charged with DUI, according to the Chicago Sun-Times. The DUI charges against the officer were dismissed last week at a preliminary hearing, as Judge Donald Panarese said there was no indication Officer John Ardelean, 34, was intoxicated at the time of the crash.
The motor vehicle collision occurred in the 2900 block of North Damen in Chicago, Illinois when the officer who was traveling northbound in his SUV crossed the center line and struck a southbound Pontiac. Witnesses also saw the defendant speeding and driving erratically just before the accident.
Ardelean had also been caught on video drinking at a bar shortly before the crash. However, the bartender where he had been drinking testified that the defendant did not appear to be intoxicated. Police officers that responded to the accident scene also testified that Ardelean did not appear to be under the influence.
The two men that were killed in the car crash were Miguel Flores, 22, and Erick Lagunas, 21, and they were life long friends from Cicero, Illinois. The defendant officer is assigned to the Belmont district and has been relieved of his police powers pending the results of an internal investigation.
As far as a civil case is concerned, the families of the deceased have already hired a Chicago wrongful death lawyer to represent them. The dismissal at the preliminary hearing should have no effect on the wrongful death claim against the officer. While there does not appear to be strong evidence of a DUI in this matter, there is evidence of negligence.


Lots of action has been happening behind the scenes around here, from exploring new lands at Disneyland to being a full-time Pug Mama. I've also been digging deep to create unique, innovative products that will make your life so much easier. More to come on that soon! In the meantime, here's a glimpse at some recent adventures that are fueling my creative energy. Disney recently rethemed the Grizzly Peak Airfield area, formerly known as Condor Flats, to fit the rustic, Northern California mountains vibe of the nearby Grizzly River Rapids. This is the area around the Soarin' Over California ride that you may have flown by on your way to your next attraction. Well fly by no more.
The Imagineers put so much thought into this redesign, adding hidden details and back stories that a complete land in Disneyland deserves. I was especially enamored with the National Parks details, being from a family that loves to visit Parks around the country. This area now blends nicely with the Grizzly River Rapids ride and one of my favorite hidden areas, the Redwood Creek Challenge Trail.
National Donut Day on June 5th was certainly a reason to celebrate. I'm a big donut fan (maple bars are life) and an even bigger breakfast lover, so of course I had to plan something special for this momentous holiday.
Now that we live in the Greater LA area, our options for famous donut shops have grown exponentially. In Portland, you were either Team Voodoo (wacky, unusual flavors that were not always delicious) or Team Blue Star (my personal favorite). I heard about Sidecar Doughnuts from Hilary Rushford because they have an incredible, drool-worthy Instagram account. When I heard they were in Costa Mesa, I knew I had to check them out.
I went totally overboard and got one of almost every available flavor. My favorites were Saigon Cinnamon Crumb, Apricot & Sour Cream, and Raspberry. These are gourmet, freshly-baked donuts that are best eaten right away, but I couldn't help but bring some home (in the fridge) for the next morning. If you are at Disneyland, Sidecar is worth the 25 minute drive.
On May 30 we celebrated another important holiday for our little family, Chloe the Pug's birthday. Our first-born furchild turned 5 this year (they grow up so fast!) and we celebrated with a trip to the Huntington Dog Beach. It's been a tumultuous time for little Miss Chloe. We finally saved up enough pennies to pay for her eye, nose and throat surgery. She has several different issues from her extensive wrinkles and flat face. Her fur was rubbing her eyes, slowly causing clouded vision from the pigmented scar tissue. She also suffers from brachycephalic airway syndrome, causing her to work twice as hard to breathe through her tiny nose holes, and choke when her soft palette or everted saccules covered her airway.
Thankfully we were able to have these three surgeries completed at the same time, and Chloe seemed to recover perfectly. Until a week after her stitches were removed. One night she was unable to open her eye and became extremely lethargic. It turned out that one of her stitches had been missed during removal, had flipped in, and was now rubbing her sensitive cornea. After another emergency surgery, they removed the missed stitch, and now she is back in the cone for another week.
Being a full-time pug mama can be very trying! I've spent a lot of nights lately worrying about my furbaby, our bank accounts, and all the work that's falling behind. I'm so thankful we have the means to pay for her surgery, and that I can rearrange my schedule to be available for her appointments, post-procedure monitoring and extensive eye drop regimen. But I certainly hope things slow down now!! So if things have seemed a little quiet around here, it's because I've been fighting this little bronco on her latest eye drop application.

Powell: US Sees No Need for Taiwan Referendum
US Secretary of State Colin Powell told Congress on Wednesday the Bush administration "doesn't really see a need" for the Taiwan referendum question, and opposes action that would change the status quo in the region.
In a testimony before the House International Relations Committee, Powell said: "Taiwan is a democratic place, if they choose to have a referendum, they can have a referendum. We've made clear to them, however, that we do not want to see these actions lead in any way to change in the situation." <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
He said: "We still are fully supportive, and totally committed to our one-China policy based on the three communiqués and the Taiwan Relations Act.... And we don't believe any action should be taken in the region that would unilaterally change the situation."
Last month, under pressure from Washington, the Taiwanese "president" Chen Shui-bian retreated from a plan to present a ballot question bluntly demanding that the mainland renounce the use of force and withdraw missiles aimed at the island.
In its place, Taiwanese voters will now be asked whether, if the mainland refused to withdraw the missiles, Taiwan should acquire advanced anti-missile systems. A second measure on the ballot will ask if Taiwan should engage in negotiations with the mainland on a "peace and stability" framework for cross-Straits integration.
The Chinese central government regards the ballot initiative as a provocation and is reported to have pressed the US administration to take a tougher stand against it.
Mr. Powell told a committee questioner the United States "is not expressing support" for either ballot question, and said Taiwan and the mainland will have to work together to "eventually find a way of reconciling their different views and interests."
The Chinese central government has been strongly opposed to Taiwanese leader Chen Shui-Bian's plans for the March 20 referendum, in which he is also seeking re-election.
On January 30 during a trip to Beijing, Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage said it is quite clear that the United States is opposed to any unilateral action which alters the status quo by either side.
When asked about discussions in Taiwan about holding a referendum, Armitage replied: "As much as we respect Taiwan's democracy, the referendum in question does raise some questions."
"As I understand it," Armitage said, "referenda are generally reserved for items or issues that are either very divisive, or very difficult. The wording that I have seen of the referendum seems to be neither divisive nor difficult. So I think it raises some questions about the motives of those who want to put it forward."
"The position of the United States on this is that we're studying this very carefully. It's not just the written words that would be in front of one on a paper, but it is the context of them and how they are used domestically. It's a very fluid situation."
The United States, Armitage said, wants to study the referendum proposal in context "and how it's used domestically." He noted that in Taiwan, "there is an election campaign going on, and that may have something to do with it."

Intravenous literature: IVTEAM do not regularly publish 'old' articles. However, this article has a number of very interesting extravsation pictures and treatment options.
Click here to view the full pdf of article.
Sarovath, A. and Kruavit, A. (2006) Extravasation Injury: What is the Appropriate Management of Extravasated Skin Ulcer? The THAI Journal of SURGERY. 27(1), p.19-25.
Background: Extravasation injury can cause a serious problem from significant soft tissue necrosis. The proper treatment is always being delayed before being referred to surgeons.
Objective: To study the appropriate surgical management of the extravasated skin ulcer.
Patients and Methods: During August 2001 and January 2003, there were seven patients (5 males, 2 females) suffering from extravasation injuries; 5 cases from chemotherapeutic agents (Doxorubicin HCL, Epirubicin) and 2 cases from calcium. Early radical debridement of necrotic tissues and either immediate or delayed reconstruction were successfully performed using either skin flaps or skin grafts if direct closure is impossible.
Results: There were one partial flap necrosis and one minimal wound dehiscence. They healed after secondary minor surgery.
Conclusions: Prevention of extravasation injury is the best policy because once this serious injury develops it will be difficult to heal by conservative treatment. Early radical debridement of the necrotic or non-healthy tissues with immediate or delayed skin coverage is recommended.

Q: NaN whilst calculating total values mapping over an array I am trying to calculate a value every time I map over an array but I am getting (5)NaN back. If I hard code a single value in I get the correct value I am looking for. Looks like the problem is something to do with mapping over the values. If I console.log each value I get the correct numbers.
   console.log(calculateTotalReviews(16, 40)); returns: (5)40
   console.log(review.valueCount); returns: 16, 8, 6, 13,
   console.log(review.starRating); returns: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

        {customerReviews.map(review => (
            <CustomerRatingBar review={review} />
        ))}

const customerTotalReviewsData = {
  totalNoOfReviews: 50,
  averageRating: 4.8,
};

const customerReviews = [{
    starRating: 5,
    valueCount: 16,
  },
  {
    starRating: 4,
    valueCount: 8,
  },
  {
    starRating: 3,
    valueCount: 6,
  },
  {
    starRating: 2,
    valueCount: 13,
  },
  {
    starRating: 1,
    valueCount: 7,
  },
];

const calculateTotalReviews = (amountOfCustomers, totalReviews) =>
  (amountOfCustomers / totalReviews) * 100;

console.log(calculateTotalReviews(review.valueCount, review.totalNoOfReviews)) // Returning (5)NaN

A: I can only assume, that one of the values review.valueCount or review.totalNoOfReviews is undefined, which would make the calculation return NaN.
Looking at your variables, can it be that you want to use review.valueCount and customerTotalReviewsData.totalNoOfReviews (instead of review.totalNoOfReviews)?
calculateTotalReviews(review.valueCount, customerTotalReviewsData.totalNoOfReviews)

A: review.totalNoOfReviews is undefined. Calculations done to it will result in NaN.
You might want to change your code to:
{customerReviews.map(review => (
            <CustomerRatingBar review={review} totalNo={customerTotalReviewsData.totalNoOfReviews}/>
        ))}

console.log(calculateTotalReviews(review.valueCount, totalNo))

Cossonay cricket club's stint in the Swiss T20 cup ended with back-to-back defeats to Olten CC and Zurich Nomads. On Saturday, Cossonay crashed to a 4-wicket defeat to Olten. This was followed by a 55 run defeat to Nomads on Sunday.
On Saturday 07.07.2012, put into bat Cossonay was carried by a classy opener Sathyanarayanan's 54 and Kishore's 39 to make 140 all out in 20 overs. In reply, Kishore removed the olten openers cheaply. But the Olten 3rd wicket partnership batted briskly to take the score to 83 in 9 overs. A middle order collapse followed but Olten was carried by Murali to reach the target in 16 overs. Kishore ended with figures of 2/12 and Niketh took 4/33.
On Sunday 08.07.2012, Cossonay returned requiring a victory to have a chance of progressing to the next round, but under cloudy skies the Nomads batsmen took a heavy toll on the bowlers to make 233 runs in 20 overs. In reply, Cossonay was once again guided by opener Sathyanarayanan who went on to make a brilliant 92 not out, but a huge score of 233 was always monumental and Cossonay ended 53 runs short.

When NBC's hit TV series This Is Us finally delivered the long-awaited answer as to how beloved Pearson family patriarch Jack (Milo Ventimiglia) dies, passing by slow cooker fire probably wasn't what anyone had expected.
One of the show's most central (and heartbreaking) mysteries, fans had been exchanging morbid possibilities—everything from suicide to dogs to 9/11—since finding out about the character's demise during the time-hopping drama's first season. All of that obsessive anticipation is probably why, when the series did finally reveal what happened to Jack, the internet was ablaze with reactions. The reasoning behind Jack's death was revealed as the result of some faulty knob on a Crock-Pot, and within hours of the show's airing, fans had taken to the company's Facebook in both fear and jest.
The company even started a Twitter account (@CrockPotCares) to field both the playful, concerning, and some more negative responses.
It goes on. Series showrunner Dan Fogelman released his own statement on Twitter reminding everyone that the show is a piece of dramatic fiction and thus plot developments should be treated as such.
While Fogelman was issuing polite reminders, Newell, the brand behind Crock-Pot and other kitchen namesakes like Rubbermaid and Mr. Coffee, spent its day putting out fires about its product, which has been a staple of American kitchens and cooking since its release in the 1970s.
In a statement to TVLine, Crock-Pot acknowledged that they were also upset by the death of Jack, but that the fictional storyline development doesn't entirely reflect reality.
The data about home and kitchen fires seems to support their statement. A November 2017 report from the National Fire Protection Association confirms that while cooking fires are a serious issue that account for an average of 510 civilian deaths a year, its causes and fatalities aren't strongly linked to faulty Crock-Pots. In fact, between 2011 and 2015, 43 percent of civilian deaths related to home fires involving cooking equipment came from said equipment being left unattended, with another 22 percent resulting from the heat source being left too close to a combustible. In short, cooking related fatalities were largely the result of not practicing good cooking safety.
Furthermore, "Ranges or cooktops, with or without ovens, accounted for the majority (62%) of home cooking fire incidents and an even larger share of civilian deaths (87% or 440) and injuries (80%)," the report reveals. For those concerned that their appliances can't be trusted, it appears that your ovens and human behavior are more likely to result in your death than a faulty slow cooker knob.
If that isn't enough to convince you, this guide on whether your Crock-Pot can actually catch fire should put you at ease. The loss of Jack is devastating, but his fictional death isn't cause to throw out your Crock-Pot anytime soon.

© 2016 Foreign Policy Collective
Latest goings-on
ECFR: A View from Stockholm on Russia sanctions by Fredrik Wesslau
Fredrik Wesslau writes for ECFR on Sweden's policy on sanctions against Russia: Sweden has been one of the most active hawks on Russia since the beginning of the Ukraine crisis. The change of government in Stockholm in October entailed a slight shift in policy towards Russia though Sweden's hardline position remains fundamentally unchanged. Sweden continues to push for the EU to stay united and firm on sanctions and to be ready to impose further measures if Russia and the separatists fail to implement Minsk II.
Foreign Policy Collective is launched
The Foreign Policy Collective was launched on 1 February 2015. FPC is a consortium of independent foreign policy experts and practioners who work with international conflicts and crises. The members of the collective provide informed analysis and strategic advice on a broad range of foreign policy issues. They also provide operational support for diplomatic processes, notably mediation and negotiations, as well as tailored training and mentoring.


Becky lived a life of stomach troubles and headaches starting as a little child. Back in the 60s and 70s, the limited tests conducted on her never revealed what was happening inside her body. It wasn't until many years later that Becky finally discovered what was causing the turmoil–gluten.
With gluten out of her diet, she soon began to feel better. Her gastrointestinal problems, headaches, irritability, mood swings, sores, and joint pain all went away. She now had energy and realized she was feeling like normal people do.
Becky loved playing in the kitchen and attempting to duplicate family recipes and cookbook recipes without gluten; the challenge of acquiring the texture and taste of "normal' food was pure fun. Becky had a unique upbringing living in the Ozarks and the book is full of little family anecdotes which are truly charming. She openly lets you into her life.
This cookbook seems to keep the traditions of the Ozarks alive, yet in a gluten-free way. The book has recipes I have never seen before and never dreamed of. Many are family recipes or Becky's original adaptations of recipes. A lot of work went into her kitchen; she relied on her neighbors, friends, and husband, Gene, to give her or deny her a thumbs up to let her know if her recipes were a hit or a miss, heading back to the stove if need be.
Becky's husband, Gene Pierson, said Becky is no longer with us, but he believes God led her to write this book. In April and May of 2009 the two of them traveled to many support groups and health food stores promoting the book and doing book signings. She'd often asked him why God let her have this disease. He feels he knows why, and it's because she truly touched and helped so many lives through the creation and result of this very cookbook.
Profits from this book will help support the release of the book she finished before her passing, Little Farm in the Ozarks. This new book includes Becky's favorite recipe her mother used on the farm.
Gluten and Its Effects on Many- VIDEO EXPLAINING THIS!
This is exactly the sort of cookbook I like…something personal with unique, family-inspired recipes. I look forward to getting a copy and recreating Aunt Becky's recipes in my kitchen!
This book sounds really wonderful. I hadn't yet heard of it before reading your blog. I'm very excited to check out. Thank you for your great recommendations of unique gluten-free cookbooks and resource guides!
I am so excited to pick up Becky Pierson's book. So glad she was able to make such a profound contribution to the celiac community before passing on.
This sounds like a really special cookbook made from the heart, and those are my favorite kinds! I just put it on my Christmas list, but I might just have to pick it up sooner!
I am very excited to try this cookbook. I love to find these special, off-the-beaten path GF cookbooks made from the heart!
Do you have copies of this book for sale?
Hi Michael, I do not sell products at the moment on my site. Try searching online for it though. I am sure it is available.

The latest version of our ComoNeo process monitoring system ensures high quality, efficiency and transparency in injection molding. Users can choose from a vast range of functions to assemble their own custom monitoring package.
One key benefit of this system is its ability to support users according to their individual levels of know-how. Kistler has integrated a practical prediction tool into ComoNeo: the Stasa QC software, which uses measured values and statistical analyses to calculate the quality of manufactured components in advance, and to assess them within tolerance bands. This special process monitoring method is particularly useful for manufacturers of high-grade parts – in medical technology or other sectors where safety is critical, for instance.
ComoNeoPREDICT: Allows model-based prediction of specified part quality based on the cavity pressure and temperature profiles – for optimum process parameters and transparent processes.
ComoNeoMERGE: When multiple materials are used, process technology becomes more complex – but ComoNeo 3.0 can easily accommodate this challenge. The system monitors and evaluates up to four components with different mold technologies.
ComoNeoMULTIFLOW: For molds with multiple cavities, this option allows hot runner balancing through individual adjustment of the nozzle temperature – to ensure identical injection conditions in all cavities and automatic correction of deviations.
ComoNeoSWITCH: This function ensures automated switchover from the injection phase to the holding phase at the ideal time – for balanced injection behavior and optimum mold protection during the process.
ComoNeoCOMPOSITE: Another new feature: injection molding with the RTM process can now be optimized. Special RTM sensors from Kistler create the conditions for controlled high-quality processing of long-fiber composites.
ComoNeoGUARD: With this function, users can define monitoring windows to enable accurate separation of good and bad parts on a step-by-step basis. The benefits: guaranteed part quality and less pseudoscrap.
ComoNeoRECOVER: This feature makes it possible to reproduce a proven injection molding process on a different machine. The user is guided through the adaptation step by step, deviations are identified and the assistant suggests corrective actions.
ComoNeo by Kistler: This unique system's combination of complementary functions is the key to individual, holistic optimization of injection molding production.


For him alone. No pause for mercy if the victim's out of sight.
Beautiful in theory... he knows it's not for him. He's got his fodder!
But there are other bullets, other walls, where justice cries in shiny red.
Where reason dies and passion burns persuasion's just a hole in the head.
Silence as they cover up the mess.
Don't kid yourself. You're civilized - it could happen anywhere.
In choking cities, steaming jungles... maybe even here.
The festival of Walpurgis Night is named after Saint Walpurga (known in Scandinavia as "Valborg"; alternative forms are "Walpurgis", "Wealdburg", or "Valderburger"), born in Wessex in 710. She was a niece of Saint Boniface and, according to legend, a daughter to the Saxon prince St. Richard. Together with her brothers she travelled to Franconia, Germany, where she became a nun and lived in the convent of "Heidenheim", which was founded by her brother Willibald. Walburga died on 25 February 779 and that day still carries her name in the Traditional Catholic Calendar.
In Germany, "Walpurgisnacht" (or Hexennacht, meaning Witches' Night), the night from April 30 to May 1, is the night (May Day's eve), when witches meet on the Brocken mountain and hold revels with their gods waiting for spring..."
In rural parts of southern Germany it is part of popular youth culture play pranks on Walburgisnacht, e.g. tampering with neighbors' gardens, hiding possessions, or spraying graffiti on private property. These pranks occasionally result in serious damage to property or bodily injury. Curiously Adolf Hitler, with several members of his staff (including Joseph Goebbels), committed suicide on "Walpurgisnacht", April 30/May 1, 1945. In the History Channel's documentary, "Hitler and the Occult", author Dusty Sklar stated that "It's believed by some people that he chose April 30th deliberately because it coincided with Walpurgis Night, which is believed to be the most important date in Satanism. So according to one commentator he was giving himself up to the powers of darkness."
Anton Szandor LaVey chose Walpurgis Night in 1966 to found the Church of Satan.
"The Illuminatus! Trilogy" by Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson makes repeated references to Walpurgisnacht.
The last major work of the Viennese satirist Karl Kraus was an anti-Nazi polemic titled Die dritte Walpurgisnacht ("The Third Walpurgis Night").
"Repent Walpurgis", by the English progressive rock band Procol Harum.
"War Pigs" by Black Sabbath was originally titled "Walpurgis" (and while the music was the same, the lyrics were entirely different).
Thomas Pynchon's novel, Gravity's Rainbow, has several scenes set during Walpurgis Night 1945, and also makes references to such matters as the Brocken Spectre.
"Wall Purges Night", is an obvious black pun on Walpurgisnacht. "Purges" in this case probably carries the meaning "to rid (a nation or political party, for example) of people considered undesirable." This is probably from the Stalinist Purges. The Great Purge was a series of campaigns of political repression and persecution in the Soviet Union orchestrated by Joseph Stalin in 1936-1938. Also described as a "Soviet holocaust" by several authors, it involved the purge of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, repression of peasants, Red Army leadership, and the persecution of unaffiliated persons, characterized by widespread police surveillance, widespread suspicion of "saboteurs", imprisonment, and killings.
Hundreds of thousands of victims were falsely accused of various political crimes (espionage, wrecking, sabotage, anti-Soviet agitation, conspiracies to prepare uprisings and coups) and then executed by shooting, or sent to the Gulag labor camps. Many died at the penal labor camps due to starvation, disease, exposure and overwork. Other methods of dispatching victims were used on an experimental basis. For example, one secret policeman gassed people to death in batches in the back of a specially adapted airtight van. Estimates of the number of deaths associated with the Great Purge run from the official figure of 681,692 to nearly 2 million.
The "Wall" in the title could be referring to the politics surrounding the Berlin Wall which, at the time this song was recorded, still stood.
Not everyone who lived in East Germany was trapped there. Many chose to live there voluntarily. Cities in the western part of Germany were strongly associated with some of the worst Nazi atrocities, so living in the East avoided the stigma of Nazism to some extent.
This song appears to warn that the spread of Facism can happen anyplace at anytime if we are not vigilant in watching what the powers of the world are doing, and maintain our rights to have an influence in those governments. The first verse seems to describe actual hate crimes and propaganda pushed by Neo-Nazi types on the street. The second portrays the business sector and it's role. The third bit seems to show how facist doctrines are supported by supposedly free governments behind closed doors. "Steaming jungles" in the last line probably refer to all the guerilla revolutionary activity in places like South America.
Information on how facism spreads in subtle ways, this time using the American George Bush administration as an example, while the Legendary Pink Dots were most likely thinking of the politics of Margaret Thatcher - a theme that would blossom into the full fledged scream against them on the album "The Tower".


Camphill is a way of life, an intentional Community, where each person contributes according to their ability what they can towards the well-being of the other. At the core of the community is the recognition of the dignity inherent in each person. Camphill places the individual at the heart of community. This mutual support and respect for each other enables the creation of a healthy environment for sustainability and development.
Fundamental to daily life is a sense of rhythm.

Rivier St. Joseph's
PORTLAND, Maine – Saint Joseph's College (1-1, 1-0 GNAC) blanked Rivier University (1-3, 0-2 GNAC), 5-0, in what was the Monks' 2017 Great Northeast Athletic Conference (GNAC) opener at Fitzpatrick Stadium on Friday night.
Saint Joseph's dominated the stat sheet in the first half to the tune of a 19-0 shots advantage, but managed to score just one goal – a Hayley Winslow (Falmouth, Maine) strike in the 15th minute – as Rivier netminder Emily Foster (West Lebanon, N.H.) notched six saves in the opening stanza with 17 stops overall.
The SJC offense began to click in the second frame, as senior Elyse Caiazzo (Scarborough, Maine/Cheverus) facilitated a pair of goals in a three-minute span, first on a Kayla Kelly (York, Maine) score at the 36:38 mark and again when Libby Pomerleau (Saco, Maine) hit pay-dirt at the 39:01 mark.
The 3-0 cushion remained until the 61st minute, when Pomerleau found the back of the cage off a Kayla Kelly dish and freshman Alexandra Belaire (Greene, Maine) capped the game scoring with her first collegiate tally off a Maddy Beaulieu (West Gardiner, Maine) pass at the 64:22 mark.
SJC junior keeper Megan Baker (Gorham, Maine) made one save to pick up the shutout win while Junior Kayla Veilleux (Sabattus, Maine) tacked on a defensive save in the triumph.
Saint Joseph's recorded commanding leads in shots (36-3), shots on goal (22-2), and penalty corners (13-0) in the one-sided triumph.
With the victory, Saint Joseph's remains undefeated with a 9-0 record in the history of the series versus Rivier University.

Budget 2016: less money collected as taxes and spent on health and education
CarpathianPrince/ Shutterstock.com
For me, the most interesting part of British Columbia's Budgets are always at the back of the 134 page Budget and Fiscal Plan document.
Buried back there in tables A9 to A13 is information about how much of the province's treasure is being collected from various sources and spent in various program areas going back to 2009/10 and projected forward to 2018/19. Table A9 shows that some of the fastest projected revenue growth over the period reported were Medical Services Plans rising by 5.9% annually and post-secondary education fees where revenue goes up by 6.1% annually. MSP premiums between 2009/10 and 2018/19 will rise by more than a billion dollars despite any changes announced in Tuesday's Budget.
Table A10 shows us that revenue from taxation is going to fall from 9.9% of BC's nominal Gross Domestic Product in 2015 to 9.4% in 2018/19. As a portion of our GDP, natural resources revenue is also predicted to fall.
Table A11 shows us where spending is going up in dollar terms but table A12 shows where it is going down as a share of our Gross Domestic product. Health care spending will fall from 7.8% of GDP in 2015/16 to 7.5% in 2018/19. Education spending falls from 5.0% of GDP to 4.7% of GDP. At the bottom of this table are figures that show real per capita operating expenditures adjusted for inflation. The figure for 2018/19 is $9,580, lower than the $9,656 shown in 2009/10.
Finally, table A13 shows how many full-time equivalent staff work for the provincial government. Back in 2009/10 there was one provincial public employee for every 123 British Columbians. By 2018/19 this will rise to 151.2 British Columbians for every person delivering provincial services.
So, all told, what does this add up to? We are continually putting fewer of the province's resources to critical issues like health and education and we have fewer people to deliver those and other services. As a portion of GDP, overall taxes are going down. But MSP premiums, which are still not progressive taxation, and student tuition fees are among our fastest growing revenue sources.
BC brags it has among the lowest income tax rates in Canada while still having no poverty reduction plan. It has high poverty rates for children and low social assistance rates for our citizens who need help most. Real inflation adjusted education spending per student will actually fall. But they still manage to be able to set up a $100 million "BC Prosperity Fund."
Tables A9 to A13 show how it is done and who is paying for it.

Due to the fact that Helmeringhausen is situated on private land it is not officially recognized as a town nor does it have a governing body. A member of the German Schutztruppe proclaimed the farm and to this day it maintains an atmosphere of Namibian German culture with a small airfield, filling station, a general store as well as the picturesque Hotel Helmeringhausen. Roads from Helmeringhausen lead to Sossusvlei, Lüderitz , the Fishriver Canyon and Sesriem and the settlement is a welcome retreat in the Namibia outback.


Project problems sorted by subcategories within the three categories are summarized in Figure 4-1. As shown, the largest total impact came from various sources of dependency and delay. Although delay risk caused more problems overall, dependencies on other project work was the dominant subcategory.
Delay risk represents over half of the schedule risks, and nearly a sixth of all the risks in the PERIL database. Impact from delays was lower on average than for other risks, slightly less than three weeks. Most of the reported delays related to parts that were required for the project deliverable or hardware that was required to do project work. Delivery and availability problems were a common root cause for the delay, but there were also quite a few issues around international shipping, including customs, paperwork, and other associated concerns. Delays were also a result of parts or other hardware that arrived on time but were found to be defective. Time required to replace or repair things that did not work properly was a significant source of project slip. Delay of parts caused both the largest number of the delay risks and the most severe impact, almost four weeks on average.
Slow decisions caused quite a few project slips. Almost a quarter of the delay examples were due to inaction by managers or other stakeholders who did not act as quickly as necessary to keep the project on schedule. Sometimes the cause was poor access to the decision makers, or their lack of interest in the project. For other projects, delays were the result of extended debates, discussions, or indecision. Projects facing these issues lost nearly three weeks on average waiting for a response to a project request.
Projects also were delayed because they lacked information. Some of the delay was due to time differences separating parts of global project teams. Losing one or more days on a regular basis was common, due to misunderstandings and communication time lags. In other cases, access to information was poor, or delivery of needed reports was interrupted.
Potential delay risks may be difficult to anticipate, and many of them seem to be legitimately "unknown" risks. Thorough analysis of the input requirements at each stage of the project plan, however, will highlight many of them.
Dependencies are the most severe category of schedule risk in the PERIL database, averaging almost five weeks of impact per incident. There are a number of dependency types, but the most numerous ones in the database are dependencies on other projects and on project support.
Dependency risks from other projects are not only the most numerous of the dependency risks, they also are the most damaging, with an average of over five weeks. In larger projects (often classified as programs), a number of smaller projects interact and link to each other. In addition to providing each other with information and deliverables that meet well-defined specifications (which is a scope risk exposure), each project within a larger program must also synchronize the timing of schedule dependencies to avoid being slowed down by (or slowing) other projects. Managing all these connections is difficult in complex programs, and the amount of damage increases with time; many of these risks in the PERIL database were noticed only late in the project. Even for the interfaces that were defined in advance, delay was fairly common due to the uncertainty in each project and likelihood that at least one of the related projects would encounter some sort of difficulty. With so many possible failure modes, it becomes almost certain that something will go wrong. Analysis of the connections and interfaces between projects is a key aspect of program management, and many of the risks faced by the projects become visible through interface management techniques.
Other dependencies that interfere with project schedules in the PERIL database are support problems. These include interruption of hardware services, such as computer systems or networks required by the project, and inadequate access to resources such as help desks, system support, and people who understood older but necessary applications. Several projects were delayed by outages for maintenance that was scheduled in advance but unknown to the project team. One project had severe impact when the legal and paperwork requirements for international shipments changed abruptly. Monitoring the environment of the project and its infrastructure for planned or likely changes can forewarn of many of these potential problems.
Of all the types of schedule risk found in technical projects, estimating seems to be the most visible. People who work on technical projects are usually well aware of how inadequate their estimates are, and freely admit it. Despite this, the number of mis-estimated incidents in the PERIL database is not large, and their impact is about equal to the average for the database as a whole. One source of difficulty with estimating in technical projects is the relatively rapid change in the work, which makes the standard advice offered for improvement less useful. Good estimates, we are told, rely on history. If the environment is in constant flux, history may not seem so useful (more on this later in the chapter).
The most frequent type of estimating problem reported in the PERIL database is related to judgment. For a good number of projects, the issue was estimates that were consistently overoptimistic. Some estimates reported were too short by factors of three and four. Dealing with this source of estimating risk requires thorough planning, with appropriate understanding and decomposition of the work, so that the effort and steps required are known. It also requires good record-keeping. Metrics and project data archives are invaluable in creating future estimates that are more consistent with reality than past estimates have been, even for projects where things change rapidly. Having some data always beats having to guess. Another powerful tool in revealing and combating optimistic estimates is worst-case analysis. Not only will the answer to the question, "What might go wrong?" reveal something about the likely duration, it will also uncover new potential sources of risk.
A small number of cases of estimating risk involve learning curve issues. The impact of this was well above the average for the database, nearly seven weeks. The quality of the estimates when new technology or new people (or even worse, new technology and new people) are involved is not good. The portions of project work that require staff to do things they have never done before are always risky, and thorough analysis of the work can show which parts of the project plan are most exposed. Training plans must be established for the project whenever new skills and capabilities are necessary, and need to be explicit in the project timeline and budget.
There are also a number of cases in the PERIL database where the estimates used by the project were poor, but the root cause was outside the project. Technical projects frequently have aggressive deadlines determined in advance for them with little or no input from the project team. Even when the project plan shows the deadline to be unrealistic, the objective is retained. These projects are often doomed from the start; they represent a common type of overconstrained impossible project.
Schedule risks are generally uncovered through planning processes. Creating a comprehensive schedule using better processes for estimating, more thorough analysis of linkages and dependencies, and careful worst-case analysis will reveal many of the schedule exposures.

Jack Pullman Fantasy Sports Pioneer
By Emil Kadlec
Jack Pullman started All Pro Publishing in 1986 after playing fantasy football since 1977. He was working as an accountant and went to an office party where the host was preparing for his fantasy football draft. Jack asked what he was working on and after a quick explanation, he was hooked!
It took nine years until Jack entered the business side when some of his friends encourage him. Jack retired from the business in 2012 - 26 years in the fantasy football business. He started a scouting network of local subscribers. They feed him information on the local NFL teams. This was very helpful to his success in providing excellent content.

This tutorial was written for the command line version of ChucK (currently the most stable and widely supported). Other ways of running ChucK include using the miniAudicle (download and documentation) and the Audicle (in pre-pre-alpha). The ChucK code is the same, but the way to run them differs, depending the ChucK system.
The first thing we are going to do is do generate a sine wave and send it to the speaker so we can hear it. We can do this easily in ChucK by connecting audio processing modules (unit generators) and having them work together to compute the sound.
NOTE: by default, a ChucK program starts executing from the first instruction in the top-level (global) scope.
It creates a new unit generator of type `SinOsc' (sine oscillator), and stores its reference in variable `s'.
`dac' (D/A convertor) is a special unit generator (created by the system) which is our abstraction for the underlying audio interface.
We are using the ChucK operator () to ChucK `s' to `dac'. In ChucK, when one unit generator is ChucKed to another, we connect them. We can think of this line as setting up a data flow from `s', a signal generator, to `dac', the sound card/speaker. Collectively, we will call this a `patch'.
In ChucK, this is called a `time-loop' (in fact this particular one is an `infinite time loop'). This program executes (and generate/process audio) indefinitely. Try running this program.
IMPORTANT: perhaps more important than how to run ChucK is how to stop ChucK. To stop a ongoing ChucK program from the command line, hit (ctrl c).
So far, since all we are doing is advancing time; it doesn't really matter (for now) what value we advance time by - (we used 2::second here, but we could have used any number of `ms', `second', `minute', `hour', `day', and even `week'), and the result would be the same. It is good to keep in mind from this example that almost everything in ChucK happens naturally from the timing.
This should sound like computer mainframes in old sci-fi movies. Two more things to note here. (1) We are advancing time inside the loop by 100::ms durations. (2) A random value between 30.0 and 1000.0 is generated and 'assigned' to the oscillator's frequency, every 100::ms.
Play with the parameters in the program. Change 100::ms to something else (like 50::ms or 500::ms, or 1::ms, or 1::samp(every sample)), or change 1000.0 to 5000.0.
Once things work, hold on to this file - we will use it again soon.
What you hear (if all goes well) should be 'phasing' between moe, larry, and curly, with curly emitting the lower-frequency pulses.
ChucK supports sample-synchronous concurrency via the ChucK timing mechanism. Given any number of source files that uses the timing mechanism above, the ChucK VM can use the timing information to automatically synchronize all of them. Furthermore, the concurrency is 'sample-synchronous', meaning that inter-process audio timing is guaranteed to be precise to the sample. The audio samples generated by our three stooges in this examples are completely synchronized. Note that each process do not need to know about each other - it only has to deal with time locally. The VM will make sure things happen correctly and globally.

Compare and evaluate Peter Abelard notion of moral intent with that of Heloise
Heloise and Abelard are the typical representatives of the Christianizing Ethics. According to Abelards philosophy, there is a difference between moral defects and other defects, such as bad mental capabilities. He also distinguishes between moral defects and a sin. In his opinion, sin is not a mere intention of an evil act. Virtue is understood as an ability to resist evil desires. Heloise is also a follower of this theory. There are two major components of her ethics. The first is based on unselfish and disinterested love. The second one deals with the morality of an intent that is similar to the Abelard study.

Explain and evaluate the view of Aristotle's Virtue ethics
Aristotle states that human good is predetermined by human nature. According to Aristotle, the highest good is the attainment of happiness. Happiness means a human activity in accordance with virtue. He distinguishes between the intellectual virtue that is a human cognitive activity, and moral virtue, which is moderation of human impulses. Great attention in Aristotles study is paid to the description of specific moral virtues, which are viewed by Aristotle "to be the mean between extremes" (Moore&Bruder, 2008, p.265). According to Aristotle, the main moral virtues are courage, justice, temperance, and wisdom.
Explain and evaluate St. Augistine's notion of evil
St. Augustine is one of the prominent philosophers of the Christian tradition. In his philosophy, the problem of evil is viewed from the point of view of Platonic doctrines. One solution to this problem is that evil has been created by another malice force other than God. However, this statement contradicts the mere idea of God as the only Supreme Creator. Augustine states that this solution is not admissible. Based on Platos theory that God is the source of all reality and "all that is real is good" (Moore&Bruder, 2008, p.270), Augustine denies the reality of evil. For instance, illness is not evil, but the absence of health; blindness is the absence of sight and so on. Such a notion as a moral evil is explained by Augustin as "a case of misdirected love" (Moore&Bruder, 2008, p.271).
Explain and evaluate Plato's view on ethics, specifically the structure of the soul and of the state
According to Plato, the human soul consists of three main elements. They are raw appetites, drives, and thought. The balance of these three elements forms a virtuous person. Every element should perform its unique function under the guidance of a reason. According to Plato, an ideal state has the same structure, all the elements of which are subdued to a specific reason. The lowest appetitive element of the soul corresponds to the class of craftsmen in a state, as well as the drive element is the class of soldiers. The intellect, which is the highest class, corresponds to the aristocracy in a state. Both for an ideal state and a virtuous soul "the rational element is in control" (Moore&Bruder, 2008, p.310)
Explain and evaluate Jeremy Betham's utilitarianism
Bentham states that two equal masters, such as pain and pleasure, rule humanity. These notions determine human deeds and actions. All moral standards are viewed by him "in terms of the pleasure standard or are simply disguised versions of the pleasure standard" (Moore&Bruder, 2008, p.285). For instance, obedience to law Bentham explains in accordance with the moral standard of pleasure. He states that to most people, obedience brings pleasure. He is also convinced that the happiness of an individual coincides with general happiness.
Explain and evaluate John Stuart Mill's utilitarianism
According to Mill, the general happiness is the aim that everyone should promote. Mill states (as cited in Moore&Bruder, 2008, p.286) that "the utilitarian is required to be as strictly impartial as a disinterested and benevolent spectator." Mill believes that some pleasures are more preferable than others. In his definition of the aspired pleasure, Mill focuses his attention on its quality and quantity. For instance, there is hardly a person who wishes to switch places with an animal, even recognizing the fact that this animal has more pleasures than this person has. In contrast to Benthams theory, which is known as act utilitarianism, Mill is known as the representative of therule utilitarianism.
Explain and evaluate David Hume's ethical view known as sentimentalism
Hume states that all moral principles and judgments are not a result of a reason, but of emotions. In other words, our perception of a subject or action is based on emotions caused by them. In such a way, actions, which are considered to be moral or immoral, create a sense of pleasure or dissatisfaction. According to Hume, a human being is a "morally sensitive creature" (Moore&Bruder, 2008, p.280).

Explain and evaluate Kant's ethical theory, including the notion of the categorical imperative
According to Kant, "moral rule is something that holds without exception" (Moore&Bruder, 2008, p.282). They are universal and applicable in any situation. Kant is known to be the first philosopher who has represented a basis for the golden rule of many religions: treat other people the way you want to be treated (Moore&Bruder, 2008). According to Kant, everyone should follow moral principles just because they are right. This prescription of morality Kant calls the categorical imperative. The violation of them is an act of immorality. At the same time
Kant asserts that goodness or badness of an action is determined not to by its consequences, but by a persons intention for its realization.
Explain and evaluate Nietzsche's master and slave moralities
According to Nietzsche, there are only two moralities. They are the morality of masters and that of slaves. The slave morality praises such qualities as patience, humility, and compassion. According to Nietzsche, these qualities are the manifestation of human weakness. On the contrary, the master morality is characterized by egoism, intolerance, and cruelty. Nietzsche is convinced that it is the morality of strong and noble individuals.
Compare, explain and evaluate the view of Thomas Hobbes and John Locke regarding the state of nature and natural rights
According to Hobbes, to act rationally means to obey the laws of nature. He has postulated three of them. The first implies a search for peace.In case of impossibility to obtain it, this law predetermines protection oneself with all the possible ways. The second persuades to be content for the sake of peace. And the last one states "that men perform the covenants they have made"(Moore&Bruder, 2008). By the notion of a natural right, Hobbes understands the right of an individual to protect himself in case a peace cannot be obtained. According to Hobbes, peace is possible only under the circumstances of the existence of central power.
Locke states that everyone has natural rights, the existence of which is predetermined by the fact that every individual is created by God. Nevertheless, in comparison with Hobbes, he is less pessimistic in his evaluation of peoples deeds in the absence of centralized power.
Explain and evaluate Jean-Jacques Rousseau's notion of natural man and civil man
According to Rousseau, the will of all people as a whole represents the will of every person individually. Acting in accordance with the common will, a person is free because his desires correspond to the desires of society. Forcing a person to obey the common rules means to make him free. According to Rousseau, an individual, being a part of the whole, loses its naturalness but becomes a civil man.
Compare and contrast the Locke's labor theory of property with the Marx's labor theory of value
Locke states that everyone has a right to property. At the same time, it does not mean equal property because the amount of personal property depends on his diligence. On the contrary, Marxs labor theory of value states that the value of goods is determined by the amount of labor required for its production (Moore&Bruder, 2008).

Explain and evaluate Plato's notion of the philosopher king
In his vision of the ideal state, Plato distinguishes between craftsmen and aristocracy. Such kind of a state should be ruled by a representative of the ruling elite. The aristocracy should have neither private property nor a family. They should devote themselves to different sciences and self-improvement. After many years of public service, the most dignified representative of this aristocracy deserves an honor to be the leader of such a state.
Explain and evaluate John Rawls' notion of the veil of ignorance and the original position
The notion of the veil of ignorance proposed by Rawls is a hypothetical situation in which everybody has a neutral position in the choice of principles. In such a case, the principles of justice are adopted "behind a veil of ignorance" (Moore&Bruder, 2008, p.366). Such a situation Rawls calls the original position or sometimes the initial situation.
Explain and evaluate Robert Nozick's notion of the night-watchman state within the context of his entitlement concept of social justice
Nozicks understanding of justice contradicts the idea of a distribution of funds by a government for the purpose of general happiness. He is the adherent of the principle "what is yours is yours" (Moore&Bruder, 2008, p.370). He states that every person has a natural right to control his acquisitions and the role of a state just to be a night- watchman. That is to protect citizensand not to interfere in the distribution of the capital.
Explain and evaluate Martha Nussbaun's capabilities approach to social justice
In the capabilities approach proposed by Nussbaum, she pays much attention to human dignity and human rights. In comparison with other contract theories, this approach focusses on the desired outcomes rather than on a specific just procedure (Moore&Bruder, 2008).

It was raining again yesterday so I tried to take photos of the raindrops. However, I was failing miserably and was starting to get frustrated. I had this vision but I just couldn't execute it properly. It really put me in a terrible mood and then I turned around and saw this goofiness going on behind me. While I was taking photos, Amelia was busy licking the cold condensation from the door. I immediately remembered this. It is history repeating itself again!

Match Times: WWE Royal Rumble 2015 Edition
By Cain A. Knight Feb 1, 2015, 11:00am EST
Share All sharing options for: Match Times: WWE Royal Rumble 2015 Edition
WWE's Royal Rumble 2015 lasted for 2 hours 43 minutes and 6 seconds (2h 43m 06s). Here is a breakdown of the timing for every single second of the show, in chronological order.
The matches are in bold. The "pre-match" segments include video packages, entrances, ring introductions, and any verbal promos that occur right before a match officially begins. The "post-match" segments include any celebrations, replays, angles, attacks, or promos that occur right after a match is finished.

7m 48s: Pre-match for Royal Rumble match
59m 35s: Royal Rumble match
3m 35s: Post-match for Royal Rumble match
Match Times
The 5 matches combined for a total time of 1h 45m 09s. This means that 64.5% of the show was devoted to bell-to-bell action.
Here is the sorted list of match times for Royal Rumble 2015:
A full break down of the timing of the Royal Rumble match can be found by clicking here.
Royal Rumble PPVs always include more match time than typical WWE PPV events due to the Royal Rumble match taking up about an hour or so every year. 64.5% is the highest percentage of match time that I have ever calculated for a PPV going back to the beginning of 2013.
The overall match time of 1h 45m 09s falls just short of TLC 2014's score of 1h 46m 04s. Royal Rumble 2015 was a much shorter show, so that's why its percentage of 64.5% ended up higher than TLC 2014's percentage of 61.7%.
Royal Rumble 2015 went off the air at 43m 06s into its final hour. This is the shortest final hour of any PPV that I have timed since the start of 2013. Considering that the average 2014 PPV went off the air at 52m 15s, it looks like WWE was very conservative in timing out the lengthy Royal Rumble match.
The Royal Rumble 2014 PPV was also the shortest event of that year.
Michael Cole incorrectly stated that Seth Rollins was the iron man of the 2014 Royal Rumble match. It's as if WWE wants you to forget that CM Punk ever existed.
The divas match time of 8m 04s ranks as the 6th longest PPV match featuring a diva out of 27 such matches since the start of 2013.
The first match of the show only lasted 5m 47s. This is the shortest time for any PPV opener since the start of 2013.
In 2014, the only PPV opening match that fell under 10 minutes was Miz versus Ziggler (7m 51s) from SummerSlam 2014.
In 2013, only two PPV opening matches fell under 10 minutes: Jericho vs Fandango (8m 36s) from Extreme Rules 2013 and Wyatt vs Kane (7m 49s) from SummerSlam 2013.
The last time the Intercontinental Championship received match time on a Royal Rumble PPV was in 2002, when Edge defeated William Regal. That's an active streak that even Brock Lesnar wouldn't be able to conquer.
Pre-match Segments
The pre-match segments combined for a total time of 27m 30s, which is 16.9% of the show.
Here is the sorted list of pre-match segment time for all 5 matches:
9m 00s: Lesnar vs Cena vs Rollins
7m 48s: Royal Rumble match
Since the start of 2013, the three Royal Rumble events are the only PPVs with under 30 minutes of pre-match segment time. Every other PPV included at least 33 minutes of pre-match segment time.
Royal Rumble 2015 included 11 separate pre-match superstar entrances. These 11 entrances took up a total time of 13m 47s. Here is the sorted list of these 11 entrance times:
2m 09s: The Miz
1m 58s: The Ascension
1m 42s: The Usos
1m 27s: Bella Twins
1m 22s: John Cena
1m 20s: Damien Mizdow
1m 15s: Seth Rollins with Noble and Mercury
1m 14s: Natalya and Paige
1m 10s: Brock Lesnar with Paul Heyman
1m 04s: R-Truth
0m 26s: New Age Outlaws
The 28 entrances that all took place during the Royal Rumble match were not counted in this list. Only the entrances for Miz and Truth were accounted for here, because those entrances took place before the match officially started.
The Miz tops the list because he had two pre-match entrances on this show. His first entrance was with his tag team partner Mizdow, and that lasted 1m 20s. His entrance before the Royal Rumble match then added on another 0m 49s to his ledger.
The Ascension's entrance lasted nearly two minutes because a lengthy 0m 52s Raw recap video was aired that summarized what happened to them during the NWO Reunion segment. Their entrance also included the formal introduction of Michael Cole's announce team to the home viewers, which took up about 10 seconds.
The entrance time for the New Age Outlaws only reflects how long their music played when they walked out. That's how I try to time every superstar entrance. This method doesn't work well for the New Age Outlaws though, as their music was abruptly cut short so that Road Dogg could do his usual pre-match routine on the microphone. Their pre-match mic time lasted about 1m 59s.
The entrance for the Bella Twins included a 0m 40s Raw recap of Paige sticking her nose in their business.
Natalya had a partial entrance before the music changed over to Paige's and then they walked to the ring together. I counted this entire sequence as just one shared entrance for them.
Miz and Mizdow's team entrance included a 0m 16s plug for WWE Immortals and Hulu.
The entrance for The Usos included a 0m 31s Raw recap of their tag team championship victory over Miz and Mizdow.
Two matches received the special treatment of a dedicated video package right before superstar entrances. The video hyping Lesnar's match lasted 2m 30s. The video hyping the Royal Rumble match was the "By The Numbers" video, and it lasted 4m 28s.
When you add up all the time on the show that was spent on Raw recaps, Pre-show recaps, and dedicated video packages for the top matches, it adds up to a total time of 10m 43s. Most of this time was squeezed into the pre-show segments, but some of it ended up in the Miscellaneous category.
Post-match Segments
The post-match segments combined for a total time of 9m 59s, which is 6.1% of the show. These are the lowest marks that I have ever recorded for the post-match segment time of a PPV, going back to the start of 2013.
Here is the sorted list of the post-match segment time for all 5 matches:
There were no replays shown in the post-match segments for the tag team championship match as well as the Royal Rumble match.
This is one reason why the post-match segment for the tag team championship match will end up as one of the shortest of the year. Only 2 PPV matches in 2014 had a shorter post-match segment time than 0m 49s.
Miscellaneous Segments
That leaves about 20m 28s (12.5%) of the show for everything else.
This includes commercials for WWE Immortals, WWE 24, WWE Total Control Double Attack Playset, Hulu, Fast Lane, and Austin's podcast with Triple H. This also includes backstage segments featuring Heyman, The Authority, Rollins, Noble, and Mercury. There was also an Expert Panel segment, as well as a video hyping WrestleMania 31. The Raw recap of Sting's debut on Raw also fell into this category, as well as some filler commentary. This also includes the video recap of the pre-show match, as well as the video where various superstars explain why they will win the Royal Rumble match.
Here is a listing of how much total show time was allocated for each match when you add up all 3 components: pre-match time, match time, and post-match time.
70m 58s: Royal Rumble match (43.5% of total show time)
35m 06s: Lesnar vs Cena vs Rollins (21.5%)
13m 48s: The Usos vs Miz and Mizdow (8.5%)
11m 58s: Bella Twins vs Natalya and Paige (7.3%)
10m 48s: New Age Outlaws vs The Ascension (6.6%)
And here is a look at the "Match Time Percentage" for each match. For any given match, this percentage shows how the match time compares to the combined pre-match and post-match segment time.
84.0%: Royal Rumble match (59m 35s match, 11m 23s pre + post)
67.8%: The Usos vs Miz and Mizdow (9m 21s match, 4m 27s pre + post)
67.4%: Bella Twins vs Natalya and Paige (8m 04s match, 3m 54s pre + post)
64.7%: Lesnar vs Cena vs Rollins (22m 42s match, 12m 24s pre + post)
50.5%: New Age Outlaws vs The Ascension (5m 27s match, 5m 21s pre + post)
Final Results for Royal Rumble 2015
Match - 64.5% - 1h 45m 09s
Pre-match - 16.9% - 27m 30s
Post-match - 6.1% - 9m 59s
Miscellaneous - 12.5% - 20m 28s
