Jobs saved as Bristol fitness centre buys South West trampoline parks out of administration
The firm behind a Bristol-based indoor climbing wall and fitness centre has stepped in to save more than 80 jobs by buying a failed trampoline park operator from its administrators.
Redpoint Bristol Climbing Centre on Winterstoke Road took over Freedog, which had run the parks in Bristol and Swindon, when a deal to sell the troubled firm collapsed at the 11th hour.
Freedog, which was founded in 2014, put significant private investment into transform the two large empty warehouses in Bristol's Templegate Park, off Bath Road, pictured, and Swindon into state-of-the-art trampoline and activity parks.
They opened as part of a trend for ever-larger activity and play centres, often based on industrial estates or business parks on the edge of towns and offering free parking and cafes as well as extensive soft-play areas.
But trading difficulties and he failure to sell the business as a going concern meant the Bath office of business rescue specialists Begbies Traynor was called in as administrator.
Following an extensive marketing campaign by Begbies Traynor, Redpoint Bristol Climbing Centre and its owner Tom Gape came forward to save the business and all 81 jobs which are split between the two sites.
Tom Gape, who was assisted by solicitor Neville Catton of Carbon Law Bristol in the deal, has immediate plans to re-energise both sites.
He said: "I am delighted to welcome the customers and staff of Freedog to the Redpoint family. We have been operating in Bristol for over five years and have been looking to expand our operations for some time.
"It gives me great satisfaction to be able to do so in a way which safeguards so many existing jobs. We will be maintaining the great facilities that Freedog already offers, and there will be some exciting expansion news coming soon."
Neil Vinnicombe and Simon Haskew of Begbies Traynor said Freedog's directors had attempted to sell the business prior to their engagement but the plans were dashed when the buyer withdrew at the last minute.
Begbies Traynor said due to Freedog's good brand and customer loyalty, its marketing campaign produced significant interest within the sector, which has expanded rapidly over the last five years but now appears to be experiencing a period of consolidation.
Neil Vinnicombe said: "It's immensely pleasing to have achieved our objective of working with the directors and management to secure the immediate future of the business.
"This approach to rescuing the firm means that not only have we been able to protect the workforce, but we have also been able to provide continuity for the company's loyal customers and avoided two large vacant warehouses in central city locations. Additionally, the sale should help maximise any potential return to the company's creditors."
Neil and Simon were assisted by Nigel Boobier of law firm Osborne Clarke in Bristol.
Neville Catton of Carbon Law Partners said: "Carbon Law Partners is delighted to have worked with Tom Gape on the purchase of Freedog. It's always rewarding to be involved in a transaction that helps to save a business.
"This purchase has ensured that 81 jobs have been secured and that the local communities of Bristol and Swindon still have access to these facilities. I look forward to continue working with Tom and his business as it climbs to new heights."

Home builders in for sticker shock as lumber prices climb
Lumber prices up as much as 33%, Jacksonville experts say
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – If you're planning to build a new home or make renovations to your current one, it might cost you more than you think.
Across the country, lumber prices are near an all-time high. Experts pointed to several reasons for the rising costs, but said in the end it all comes down to supply and demand.
Regardless of the cause, everyone from distributors to contractors to consumers is feeling the impact.
At Durham Building Materials in Jacksonville, the lumber yard is still full, but the cost to keep it that way has gone up anywhere from 30 percent to 33 percent, business president Lee Morris said.
Morris said major fires in California and British Columbia have cut supply and major hurricanes have increased demand, contributing to the spike in costs.
That demand is especially high in Florida, where back-to-back years of a major hurricane resulted in a lot of people needing lumber.
Morris said home builders are feeling the pinch.
"Right now, it's anywhere from about $6,000 to $8,000 more per home," Morris said. "That hits everybody. It's the contractor, it is the owner and somebody like me. Our inventory value has soared about 35 percent at this time. We have the same number of sticks in the yard but our inventory value is up."
Morris said he doesn't expect the increase to taper off any time soon.
"It's going to continue going up," Morris said. "We haven't seen any sign of it leveling off at this time."
Morris said one thing that could raise prices even more is if another major hurricane hits the U.S. this year.
He sad if that happens, builders should expect even higher costs by this time next year.


There is also a Gamersgate version. There is also, a fairly recent Amazon retail version (not sure if it is just a Steam key or what).
Did you guys just give up on your sales tail or what!? Was Paradox' cut THAT big that you guys just gave up?
since area attacks damage all the units in a stack, this would counter-balance even a high unit stack..
Yeah. I figured the way the combat mechanic work more or less depend on small stack sizes.
These are really nice Russ!
The fact the post text is now on the LEFT side and the avatar info is on the RIGHT is intentional and not simply a hallucination/Russian hacking side-effect on my end of the Internet, right?
First time I have ever seen a board formatted that way. Kinda like it . . .

Iraqi comedy show raises army of youth voters ahead of elections
Ahmed Albasheer, host of the popular Albasheer Show, is using influence to try and effect positive change in Iraqi politics. Sebastian Castelier for The National
A recent episode of the show featured a clip of one candidate vehemently attacking the Popular Mobilisation Forces or Hashed Al Shaabi – an umbrella group of mainly Shiite militias, many backed by Iran. But by the next clip the candidate had about-faced. "The Hashed became legal and constitutional, so of course we are with them," he said.
"Greaaaaaat," cried out Albasheer, laughing uproariously at the contrasting clips. "When you have to change your skin to fit your interests, you're going to run out of skins to wear."
In the four years since it launched, the Albasheer Show has attracted 2.3 million followers on Facebook, 85 per cent of whom are under 30. Broadcast on YouTube, Facebook and the German-based Deutsche Welle Arabic channel, each episode is viewed over seven million times. Mr Albasheer himself has been ranked among the 20 most influential people in the Arab world, according to the Swiss-based Global Influence Research Centre.
Now the latest season of the show is putting that influence to use to try and make a positive change in Iraqi politics. "We've been waiting four years for this moment," Mr Albasheer tells The National. "Iraqi people forget very quickly when someone hurts them. We're here to give them the true background."
Using satire to expose hypocrisy can be an edgy proposition in Iraq, where many leaders are used to operating beyond public scrutiny. Earlier episodes of the shows prompted death threats, presumably from the disgruntled targets of their satire, and the Albasheer Show is now filmed in neighbouring Jordan.
That hasn't affected the show's popularity. "This is the best TV programme in Iraq," says Nameer Alashiar, one of the 150 mostly young Iraqi men roaring with laughter at a recent filming in a TV studio in Amman. "He's a role model for us young people," says the 25-year-old who grew up in Baghdad before moving to Jordan. "He teaches us a lot about politicians."
Ahmed Abdulkareem Hussein, 26, from Basra but now living in the Jordanian capital, agrees. "Albasheer uses humour to get young people interested and involved in politics. It is very smart."
Each week, a team of 25 Albasheer researchers trawl through 72 Iraqi television channels and innumerable YouTube videos searching for false promises, contradictory comments and risible interviews to produce satirical clips exposing the true face of Iraq's political candidates.
"On every programme, [former prime minister Nouri] Al Maliki promises to create jobs, give land to the poor and build roads, hospitals and schools," says Anssam Al Yassin, a researcher on the show. "But he hasn't done anything! How can people continue blindly following the same old guys?"
By specifically targeting youth voters, the show hopes to change that. With nearly half its population under 19, Iraq is one of the youngest countries in the world. But many of its youth are already disillusioned. "I used to cancel my vote by drawing a big cross on my ballot paper, so that no one could take or use it," says Mr Hussein.
"We can't trust any politicians since their only goal is to earn money," says Mr Alashiar.
To combat this apathy, Mr Albasheer publishes short videos very week encouraging the youth to go to the polls. "They can change everything," Mr Albasheer says, referring to Iraq's younger generation.
he show also encourages audience participation by inviting viewers to vote online for or against the candidates lampooned in each episode. Unsurprisingly, the results frequently reveal extremely low approval ratings. After a recent episode, 96 per cent of 73,000 voters on the show's Facebook page disapproved of former Salahaddin governor Ahmed Abdullah Al Jubouri.
On the eve of the Iraqi parliamentary elections, on May 11, the Albasheer Show will air its trump card. The show will broadcast its list of the "cleanest of the dirty" political candidates for each province of Iraq.
"If we choose better people, we will head towards a better future," Mr Albasheer says. "I want it to work out. If not, I will quit."

Health Care Affordability Still Confusing to Employees and Employers Alike, Study Finds
By Max Mihelich
Participation in employer-offered health benefits plans is contingent on an employee's wages, according to a recent survey published by Automatic Data Processing Inc.
Single-coverage-eligible employees who earn about $45,000 per year, which is about 400 percent of the Federal Poverty Level, were found to participate in health coverage plans 81 percent of the time, according to the study. As incomes decline from the $45,000 mark, however, participation rates begin to fall as well. For example, the study shows that only 37 percent of eligible employees choose to participate in employer-offered plans when making between $15,000 and $20,000 per year.
The federal government determined 9.5 percent is the affordability threshold for health care coverage. According to the ADP study, approximately 8.6 percent of single full-time employees pay 9.5 percent or more of their total income to obtain coverage. Only 1 percent of this group paying 9.5 percent of their income for health coverage purchases it for themselves, while 7.6 percent provide coverage for dependents.
ADP's findings suggest most employees will pay smaller premiums for health coverage by remaining with their employer's plans than they would by switching to a public health exchange. The study predicts people earning $22,340 per year, or wages 200 percent greater than the Federal poverty Level, would likely obtain better health coverage at a lower cost through their employers. And large, self-funded employers may find it "financially preferable" to extend affordable health coverage to lower-income employees rather than pay tax penalties for employees who obtain coverage through an exchange.
Still, regardless of the source of coverage, affordability will likely remain an issue for employees earning between the 200 percent and 400% percent of the poverty range in 2014, according to the survey. Lower-wage employees lacking an immediate health concern may be reluctant to participate in a health plan that consumes a significant percentage of their income, and higher-income employees may resent potential reductions in coverage and higher premium contributions needed to extend affordable coverage to a larger pool of employees, according to the study.

Custom Chicago Bears Jerseys Stitched | Bears Fan Club
Custom Chicago Bears Jerseys, Chicago Bears Jerseys Stitched, Bears Fan Club
James Daniels Jersey
Plenty of thought went into the Bears' decision to flip-flop James Daniels and Cody Whitehair on the offensive line after Whitehair had his best season at center last year, earning a trip to the Pro Bowl as an alternate.
But line coach Harry Hiestand boiled down the move in simple terms.
"James is a natural center," Hiestand said. "Cody became a center when he came to Chicago. James is more natural in there. It's his best position. He can be special. It's where he is most comfortable and Cody can do both."
The switch gives the Bears the luxury of having an experienced backup center in the starting lineup as 44 of Whitehair's 48 starts over the last three seasons have come at the position. He was at his best last year, a season after the Bears moved him around as injuries forced changes. Whitehair made two starts at left guard, 12 starts at center and two starts at right guard. Settling into one position last season, Whitehair worked through shotgun snapping issues over the summer and had a fine season, finishing with only three penalties after being called for 13 in his first two seasons.
Now, he's at left guard, a position he likely would have played as a second-round pick in 2016 if the Bears had a better option at center. The switch is in the exploratory stage during OTAs but is not expected to be reversed.
"It just fits James," Hiestand said. "Cody was forced to play center. All Cody wants to do is help the Bears win. It was a decision we made as a staff and as soon as we approached him about it, he was ready to go."
Daniels, also a second-round pick, arrived last year with a glowing recommendation from Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz, a former line coach in the NFL whose program routinely produces high-caliber linemen. Ferentz called Daniels "probably the most gifted center I have ever been around as far as the tools to be a center, including my six years in the NFL." That makes it easy to understand why the Bears believe Daniels has the ability to become one of the NFL's elite centers.
The challenge this spring is for Daniels to master communication with quarterback Mitch Trubisky. He's making calls and checks at the line of scrimmage, which will take time.
"James, he's very smart, so the transition's been very easy for him so far," Trubisky said. "I would say the only difference this year is that I'm finally hearing him talk. He didn't talk much last year. So having him at center, we talk a lot more off the field and on the field as well. Hearing him make calls. Just that constant communication back and forth. It's been great. … It comes easy to him and obviously he played it in college, so it's been a natural switch and it's been going really well."
Daniels moves well for a center, so it's possible the change will help the running game, especially when he works combination blocks and climbs to the next level. The Bears will get a better idea of that during training camp when the pads go on.
The switch has been seamless for Whitehair, who has more experience at guard than Daniels.
"They said we would try it out and that's what we're doing," Whitehair said. "It's been a smooth transition. Both James and I feel comfortable in those positions. We both have the same attitude."

Richard Dent Jersey
The NFL Draft has never been an exact science. There have been No. 1 overall picks who go on to be major busts, while undrafted players have gone on to have Hall of Fame careers. Back when Chicago Bears Hall of Famer Richard Dent entered the 1983 NFL Draft he was taken with the 203rd overall selection. He went on to put together a stellar career with the organization despite being a late-round selection.
CBS Sports' Chris Trapasso recently ranked the top 100 value draft picks and a total of five Bears selections made the list. The highest spot on the list went to Dent at No. 12.
He played with the Bears between 1983 and 1993 before a one-year stint with the San Francisco 49ers in 1994. He returned to the Bears for the 1995 season before spending his final two years in the league with the Indianapolis Colts and the Philadelphia Eagles. He was the Most Valuable Player of Super Bowl XX, was a four-time Pro Bowler and a four-time All-Pro. Dent also led the NFL in sacks during the 1985 season.
Following an average first season in the league in 1983, Dent came into his own in his second year in 1984. He ended that season with 17.5 sacks before recording 17 sacks the following year. He racked up 11.5 sacks in 1986 and 12.5 sacks in 1987. The 1988 season saw him record 10.5 sacks followed by nine sacks in 1989. He recorded 12 sacks in 1990, 10.5 sacks in 1991, 8.5 sacks in 1992 and 12.5 sacks in 1993. Dent ended his NFL career with 137.5 sacks and 124.5 of them came during his 12 seasons with the Bears.
Other Bears on the list included quarterback/placekicker George Blanda at No. 28, offensive lineman Dan Fortmann at No. 30, offensive lineman Stan Jones at No. 39 and linebacker Mike Singletary at No. 67.
Blanda began his career with the Bears in 1949. He remained with the Bears through the 1958 season. A quarterback and placekicker, Blanda threw for 5,936 yards with 49 touchdowns and 70 interceptions during his time with the Bears. Most of his recognition came when he was playing for the Houston Oilers and later for the Oakland Raiders. He played an NFL record 26 seasons and retired after the 1975 season. He was later named to the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Fortmann is another Hall of Famer for the Bears organization. A ninth-round pick in 1936, Fortmann played his entire career with the Bears between 1936 and 1943. He ended his run with the team with three NFL championships, three Pro Bowl nods and was a seven-time All-Pro. He was also a member of the NFL's All-Decade team for the 1930s.
Mike Ditka Jersey
Mike Ditka, Pro Football Hall of Fame player and Super Bowl-winning coach, joined ESPN as an NFL analyst in 2004.
With a combined 26 years of playing (12) and head coaching (14) experience, Ditka is an analyst on Sunday NFL Countdown and Monday Night Countdown and makes regular appearances on ESPN Radio and SportsCenter. He also served as a booth analyst during the Monday Night Football doubleheader in 2007 and 2008, alongside Mike Greenberg and Mike Golic of Mike & Mike in the Morning. Ditka previously worked as both an analyst and commentator at CBS and NBC.
Ditka has amassed a career few can match. He is only the second person to win the Super Bowl as a player (Dallas, 1972), assistant coach (Dallas, 1977), and head coach (Chicago, 1986). After earning All-America honors at the University of Pittsburgh, the tight end enjoyed a stellar 12-year NFL playing career. He was named NFL Rookie of the Year and selected All-Pro six times. He also caught a touchdown in the Cowboy's Super Bowl VI win against the Miami Dolphins.
As an assistant coach with Dallas, Ditka's teams made it to the playoffs eight times, including the 1977 Super Bowl victory. In 1982, he assumed the head coaching job in Chicago, and in 11 years, collected six NFC Central titles, three NFC championship game appearances, and the Super Bowl XX title (1986) for which he was named Coach of the Year.
He again earned the honor in 1988 after coaching the Bears to the NFC championship game. Mike Ditka left Chicago in 1992 only to return as head coach of the New Orleans Saints in 1997. He retired from coaching in 2000.
In addition to broadcasting, Ditka owns and operates Ditka's restaurants with locations in Chicago and Pittsburgh. He also continues to generously devote himself to varied charitable endeavors, including numerous anti-drug and prevention campaigns. He founded The Mike Ditka Foundation in 1989 to raise funds for Misericordia, a residential facility for developmentally disabled children, and also for pediatric AIDS research programs.
When he was the coach of the Bears, the team held its summer training camp in Platteville from 1984 to 2001.
Tom Waddle Jersey
Players leave the Buffalo Bills for the New England Patriots, looking to find out firsthand what it's like to be on the dynastic side of the NFL tracks.
Stephon Gilmore, Chris Hogan, Mike Gillislee and Scott Chandler are among prominent former Bills who recently got their taste of being a part of the league's gold standard. Gilmore and Hogan have Super Bowl rings to show for their Patriot experiences.
For the past four seasons, LaAdrian Waddle was a Patriot. But the offensive tackle's career has traveled in the opposite direction of the Orchard Park-Foxborough, Mass., path. In March, Waddle signed with the Bills as a free agent.
"It'll definitely be interesting, once we come around to playing (the Patriots)," Waddle said during a recent conversation with The Buffalo News. "But I felt like this was a good opportunity for me. I felt like the Bills believe in a lot of things I believe in, as far as hard work and kind of a blue-collar attitude and just how to go about things.
Waddle, 27, was one of six offensive linemen the Bills signed in free agency. He's among three tackles the team added, joining fellow free agent Ty Nsekhe and second-round draft pick Cody Ford, who the Bills initially plan to play at right tackle.
Waddle was a part-time starter for the Patriots. He'll compete for one of the starting spots Dion Dawkins and Jordan Mills filled last season. At the very least, Waddle should provide solid depth one would expect from a veteran entering his seventh season.
"As of now, it's just a bunch of guys trying to learn each other, trying to get to know one another," Waddle said before the draft. "And as a group, we'll slowly grow. It takes some time, honestly. That's what this time is for, to get to know each other, to get the bond. Once we start doing more football stuff, we'll pick that up and we'll kind of see the personalities, how guys play. Then it's up to the coaching staff to put that all together as the product on the field.
"I could do anything you want me to do. As far as physically, I feel like I can handle whatever blocking assignment I need to do. And then, as far as the mental part of the game, I'm seven years in now. I've seen a lot of stuff playing against a lot of guys, and I feel like I can digest the playbook well and I have a good understanding of what's going on. So that kind of helps me play faster than, I guess, someone who doesn't know the playbook as well without that experience."
He has coaching connections with the Bills. Offensive coordinator Brian Daboll was an offensive assistant with the Patriots for part of Waddle's time in New England, and Bobby Johnson, the Bills' new offensive line coach, was assistant offensive line coach of the Detroit Lions for a portion of the three seasons Waddle spent with them. The Lions signed him as an undrafted free agent from Texas Tech in 2013.
Waddle started 24 of the 30 games he played for the Lions before assuming more of a reserve role in New England. Yet, even though he made only seven starts for the Pats, he left with Super Bowl rings. That puts him in a far loftier place than everyone else on the Bills, who have made only one playoff appearance in the last 18 seasons … and it was as fluky, one-and-done wild-card entry.
As far as Waddle is concerned, however, the contrasting history of the franchises doesn't tell the whole story, especially in the time that he resided in the AFC East penthouse.
The biggest difference of all must come from quarterback Josh Allen. Since 2015, Waddle has had an up-close view of arguably the greatest quarterback – if not player at any position – in the history of the game.
He realizes there will be an adjustment from protecting Tom Brady, regardless of who is working behind him.
"There's only one Tom Brady, let's be real," Waddle said. "But seeing Josh and what he's capable of and just knowing the talent's there … and I think, going from your rookie year to your second year, that's when you take a big jump, personally. I know he's going to do everything in his power to improve and get better. It's just something that, obviously, we don't know how it's going to play out, but I believe he'll do the right things and I think he can really make an impact."
As iconic as Brady might be, Waddle always felt they had mutual respect as players who saw each other as nothing less than teammates striving for a common goal. It's one of the tenants of the "Patriot Way." "Team-first, players play for each other," Waddle said. "That was a big deal there, and I know it's huge here."
Bill Belichick is the architect of the "Patriot Way" ethos. Going from the very top of the NFL's coaching food chain to Sean McDermott, who enters his third season as a head coach with a 15-18 record (counting the postseason) is another significant transition for Waddle.
William Perry Jersey
A dedication was held Thursday afternoon on William Perry Elementary School's playground for not only a symbol but a physical reminder of the school's dedication to stop bullying.
Donated by the Waynesboro Kiwanis Club, a "Buddy Bench" was installed.
"Hopefully, it will lead to new friendships," said Sara Loker, a guidance counselor at William Perry Elementary School and the K Kids Club advisor, at the dedication.
Loker, third grade teacher Shami Pizarro, second grade teacher Christine George, and Christi Phillips worked with the Waynesboro Kiwanis Club to bring the Buddy Bench to the school's playground.
This year was the first for the K Kids Club at William Perry Elementary. The club's Kiwanis sponsor was Billie Quigley.
Loker said the K Kids Club's 20 members in grades third through fifth took field trips during the academic year to Waynesboro Area Refuge Ministry and made sandwiches, did crafts with residents at Summit Square in Waynesboro, rang bells for the Salvation Army at Christmas time and conducted a recycling program.
According to Loker, the Waynesboro Kiwanis Club provided guidance for K Kids to get started.
K Kids Club is a way to "get kids to focus on leadership and service in the community."
"It was really a successful first year," Loker said.
The bench gives students the opportunity to interact with their peers they would not normally have a chance with which to interact.
"It's a visual representation of someone saying: 'Hey, I'm feeling left out. I need someone to play with,'" Loker said.
William Perry Elementary Principal Tammy Hipes said the Kiwanis Club "supports us in a lot of different ways."
Kiwanis supports Raising Resources for Readers (RRR), which enables the school to obtain books from the Green Valley Book Fair, and provides food bags at the end of the week.
"I think [the Buddy Bench is] a fantastic idea," said Hipes. "It's very much something I think the kids will participate in and use."
Hipes said she has confidence that students at William Perry Elementary will go sit with a student they see sitting alone on the bench.
"I think it's a great concept," Hipes said.
The bench is also a wonderful way to teach students "how to step up to the plate and make new kids or kids who feel out of place feel part of the group."
Bob Barrette, Waynesboro Kiwanis Club Secretary, said the K Kids Club members were asked to perform 2,500 service hours, then the Kiwanis Club would give them a special prize.
"And they met their goal," said Barrette.
Loker said in the beginning of the academic year, the K Kids Club began to meet and set goals for achievement, and members said they wanted a Buddy Bench for the school's playground.
"I think it's a way of dealing with bullying in a proactive way by steering school leaders to take an active lead," Barrette said of the bench.
Evelyn Moles, 10, is a member of K Kids and in 4th grade at William Perry Elementary.
Her grandfather, Mike Moles, is in Kiwanis, and encouraged Evelyn to join the elementary school chapter.
"I like it, because I get to help people," said Evelyn, who would like to become a veterinarian when she grows up.
Brian Urlacher played his way into the pantheon of Bears linebackers and the Hall of Fame over his 13-year career in Chicago, leaving no question he belongs among the all-time greats.
Where he stacks up with the best of the best in team history is still up for debate.
Hall of Fame writers Dan Pompei and Don Pierson ranked the top 100 players in franchise history for the team's official site, and Urlacher fell outside of the top 10.
Urlacher came in one spot ahead of fellow legendary linebacker Mike Singletary, but the greats of pre-merger era earned many of the top spots on the list.
Dick Butkus came in second to only Walter Payton, while old school legends Bill George and Bulldog Turner ranked seventh and eighth, respectively.
It's difficult to compare linebackers that played 50 years apart, especially when stacking them up with players at other positions.
Urlacher is still near the top of the list of the best Bears ever. They just have so many all-time greats, the likes of Dan Hampton, Richard Dent and Jimbo Covert just don't have a spot in the top 10.
Dick Butkus Jersey
The poll was part of the "Chicago Bears Centennial Scrapbook" that is being sold by the team online.
Payton played 13 memorable years with the Bears and is second on the NFL's All-Time rushing list with 16,726 yards. He surpassed Jim Brown's old record for rushing in 1984 and held the record for 18 years until Emmitt Smith broke it with the Dallas Cowboys in 2002.
A seven-time All-Pro, nine-time Pro Bowler, and the 1977 NFL MVP, Payton helped the Bears to their first and (so far) only Super Bowl title in 1985.
He was named to the NFL Hall of Fame in 1993 — where he was introduced by his son Jarrett Payton, who is now an anchor on WGN-TV and CLTV Sports Feed.
On Nov. 1, 1999, Payton died of complications from primary sclerosing cholangitis, a chronic liver disease.
Linebacker Dick Butkus was the second best, followed by Bronko Nagurski, Sid Luckman and Gale Sayers in the Top 5.
Mike Singletary Jersey
When Mike Singletary talks about anything defense-related, you tend to pay attention.
Such was the case on 1st & 10 @ 10 when the guys had the Hall of Fame middle linebacker on to chat Denver Broncos and what makes a good inside linebacker.
Since Singletary has been around the NFL for so long, he knows about new Broncos head coach Vic Fangio. Given that, what does Singletary think about Fangio and the hire to be Denver's head coach?
"Time will tell about the hire itself," Singletary said. "But what he's been able to do as a coordinator has been extraordinary. I think he's done a great job of putting the right guys in the right position and being able to have a scheme that allows them to play at the best of their ability."
Steve Atwater said it best about Singletary.
When the Broncos legend looks at middle linebackers, Atwater said they don't make them like Singletary anymore. That brought forth a good question from Atwater — what characteristics make up a great inside linebacker?
"I think one of the best characteristics that make up a really good middle linebacker is instincts," Singletary told the guys on 1st & 10 @ 10 on Thursday. "A guy can be fast. A guy can be tough. You can put a guy who has never really played linebacker and you see a guy start to pick up things. So to me, that's the No. 1 characteristic of a really good middle linebacker."
What will be fun to watch for over the course of training camp and preseason is how Fangio and defensive coordinator Ed Donatell best utilize both Todd Davis, Josey Jewell and the other middle linebackers on the roster. We know Fangio has a scheme that puts players in the best situation to have success, and Jewell already loves Fangio's coaching style and his defense. They won't turn into Singletary, but both Davis and Jewell have the instincts he said are key.
Gale Sayers Jersey
Running back Gale Sayers is fifth on the list. The "Kansas Comet" set 23 Bears records and seven NFL marks during his career and was the youngest player ever inducted into the Hall of Fame at age 34 in 1977. In winning the NFL Rookie of the Year Award in 1965, Sayers set a league record with 22 touchdowns and tied another mark by scoring six TDs in an unforgettable performance against the 49ers.
Tight end Mike Ditka is ranked No. 6. Before he became "Da Coach" in the 1980s, Ditka was one of the NFL's greatest tight ends. Ditka was voted to five Pro Bowls in six seasons with the Bears from 1961-66, catching 316 passes for 4,503 yards and 34 touchdowns. He remains the Bears' all-time leader in all three of those categories among tight ends and was the first tight end inducted into the Hall of Fame in1988.
The rest of the top 10 is rounded out by middle linebacker Bill George at No. 7, center/linebacker Bulldog Turner at No. 8, defensive end Doug Atkins at No. 9 and guard Danny Fortmann at No. 10.

This past weekend my hubby and I hosted a "Friendsgiving" brunch and it was soo fun! Seriously I'm bummed it's all over and can't wait to host again next year. Besides the obvious fun of noshing on Quiche and Cranberry Mimosas with friends, it was a great kick off the to the holiday season. In my past I've clung to summer right up until Thanksgiving (not really hard in So-Cal) and been slightly depressed by the shorter days. Planning this brunch gave me something fun and positive to focus on and I'm still reveling in the excitement of the day. It also was great to see our friends before everyone's schedule gets crazy and booked. I am already making notes for next year's party!
This crustless Quiche recipe was given to me years ago by a coworker and it's always a crowd pleaser. The base is eggs with lots of yummy cheese and then you add whatever you want from there. It's kind of like a breakfast pizza pie. This time I kept it simple with sun dried tomatoes and artichoke hearts. You can find the recipe here.
My girlfriends and me (center) taking a cocktail break…smile!
When planning decor I was inspired to note things we are thankful for in our friends on paper leaves from Paper Source. It was a really fun project thinking about all the great qualities we love in those close to us. I used the leaves to decorate an antique window in our dinning room and it added a festive note.
I've been dying to give this cookbook to someone ever since I discovered it last May. The brunch seemed like a perfect opportunity so I decided to make it into a game. Lucky me I work with graphic designers and one was generous enough to make this sign for me. I love how it turned out!

Clean-Label & Cost Effective Sweetener Taste Modulators
"Consumers want the taste of sugar," said Grant DuBois during the NAFFS 103rd Annual Convention. A "biologically-oriented" organic chemist and Chief Scientific Officer for Almendra, DuBois said good taste, manageable manufacturing costs and consumer acceptability are key factors in making a product commercially successful, including those with stevia sweeteners.
DuBois shared his extensive background in the study and improvement of sugar substitutes, which included 20 years with the Coca-Cola Co., where he was responsible for new sweetener technology development. He said that while working there, he initiated a program in collaboration with Senomyx to find enhancers of carbohydrate sweeteners such as sucrose, fructose and glucose.
The idea was that since the sweetener remained a carbohydrate sweetener, it would still have great taste. The first set identified were synthetic organic compounds; being synthetic, they required labeling as artificial flavors. The company wanted only naturally occurring compounds, which could be commercialized as natural flavors. "After 15 plus years of intensive research by Senomyx as well as other companies, to this day, natural enhancers with significant enhancement effects have not been found," he said.
DuBois said carbohydrate-sweetened beverages (with sugar) have a different mouthfeel than sweeteners. In 2000, Coca-Cola was spending $6 billion on sugar and high-fructose corn syrups. Finding a two-fold enhancer would offer astronomical savings, he said, adding that he created a list of metrics of commercial viability of a sweetener to help with this project. As part of that list, he said the new technology had to be safe or it would fail at the regulatory stage. The most-important metric, he added, is "the need for taste quality because", he said, "if you don't have good taste quality, you don't have a product."
DuBois said taste quality metrics include stability, solubility, cost-effectiveness and consumer acceptability. "The product has to carry sufficient stability to modulate the conditions as well as sufficient solubility - rapid dissolution in water. Also, in order to compete with other technologies, the technology must be cost-effective and patentable. After investing millions of dollars and resources into the development, he said, a manufacturer has to be sure of a period of exclusivity," he said.
When considering the costs, calculations are done on a cost-per-unit basis. DuBois said high fructose corn syrup, used in the Coca-Cola Classic recipe, costs ~54 cents. In contrast, U.S. Diet Coke is sweetened with aspartame with a cost per unit case of ~3 cents. In the mid-1980s, Diet Coke was sweetened with a saccharin/aspartame blend and a cancer warning label was required due some evidence that saccharin caused cancer. So, to avoid the cancer warning label, the company moved to 100% aspartame. Once the patent expired on aspartame, the price came down significantly, to its current beverage application cost per unit case of ~3 cents.
Almendra, DuBois said, experimented with its ultra-pure REBA in beverages but the cost per unit case was too high at ~34 cents per unit case and the taste was not good enough, he said. There was need to create a modulator which would increase sweetness intensity, accelerate rate of sweetness onset, reduce sweetness-linger and provide mouthfeel, DuBois said. "There's a great need for a cost-effective taste modulator."
DuBois said the manufacturer must finally be sure to create a product technology that is acceptable to consumers, citing GMO issues as an example.
DuBois said the combination of four aspects of taste quality – maximal response, flavor profile, temporal profile and sweetness desensitization – has been the greatest challenge of his career.
He provided maximal response data on four non-caloric sweeteners:
a. Saccharin 9.1: "This is limited because no matter what concentration is achieved, saccharin will never get sweeter than 9.1%," at least in a citrate buffer; you cannot reach a 10% sucrose equivalency of sweetness."
b. Cyclamate 18.4: "You can easily reach a 10% sucrose equivalency with cyclamate."
c. Aspartame 24.7: "You can easily reach a 10% sucrose equivalency with aspartame and this is why aspartame can be used all by itself without blending."
d. "Rebaudioside A 9.7: "Reb A, like saccharin, is limited by a maximal response < the intensity of 10% sucrose," he said. When considering the flavor profile of the sweeteners, DuBois discussed six sweeteners. He said to get to 7% sucrose level of sweetness with Saccharin, one will get a lot of bitter off-taste. The rest of the sweeteners, he said, are like Rebaudioside A and can carry a licorice off-taste.
DuBois said the other major challenge with non-caloric sweeteners, whether they are synthetic or natural, is the temporal profile. He looked at the same list of six sweeteners and said the sweetness of sucrose rises quickly. He said Cyclamate was similar but was banned by the FDA in 1969. He said compared to sweeteners such as aspartame, it rises relatively quickly and lingers considerably compared to sucrose. Rebaudioside A, he said, lingers even longer. With Reb A, he said, "you can even discern some delay in onset of sweetness."
Thaumatin, the protein sweetener, has a marked delayed onset and then "long, long, long sweetness-linger," he said, "And this is the major problem to solve in making non-caloric sweeteners tastes more like sugar."
Moving to sweetness desensitization, DuBois spoke about a study done on three cola products. With the use of high-fructose corn syrup, he said, the sweetness stays about the same in taking sips of a beverage every 30 seconds. Using Aspartame, the sweetness drops off over time, causing some desensitization. The cola with the synthetic flavor CPU had its sweetness drop off much more, on iterative tasting, than aspartame.
In providing a brief history of innovation in sweetness technology, DuBois said that for decades chemists have been trying to get high-potency synthetic non-caloric sweeteners to taste more like sugar. "Although aspartame and sucralose are good after many years of development, they're still not going to fool anybody," DuBois said.
The goal, he said, was to achieve a zero-caloric beverage but when it was determined that only a two-fold enhancer was possible, that meant only a 50% calorie reduction was possible. "On top of this, these were all synthetic molecules, so they had to be labeled as artificial flavors. This meant that it was never much of a commercial success," he said.
In the 1990s, he said, Coca-Cola moved to all-natural ingredients. After a long search for the best natural non-caloric sweeteners, DuBois said the best option found was REB A stevia sweetener but the taste was still a "long way from sugar." So that lead them to search for modulators of sweet taste, which were more useful by themselves.
As part of DuBois' career-long challenge to find an enhancer that would taste like sucrose, he said he's been helped by lots of empirical observations done by his teams and industry colleagues over the past 35 years. During that time, many different chemicals including ordinary salt, potassium chloride, erythritol and osmolytes were seen to increase maximal response, accelerate sweetness onset, reduce sweetness-linger and add mouthfeel to non-caloric sweetener formulations. In 2016, DuBois said, the team was able to connect all these observations to the mechanistic rationale that the sweetness-linger and intensity had something to do with the mucus in the mouth.
The roof of the mouth, he said, is slippery because of salivary mucus. "This is what causes the onset and lingering after taste. But, if you rinse with astringent substance, the sweetness of a sweetener like Reb A is enhanced; sweetness develops more rapidly and sweetness-linger is reduced," he said. This empirical observation led them, he said, to "dramatic improvement in the taste of sweeteners."
DuBois said a hydrogel covers tastebuds, due to a salivary glycoprotein called mucin. Sweet molecules must diffuse through this gel to get to the sweetener receptor on taste buds. Carbohydrate sweeteners diffuse right through this gel very rapidly, while non-caloric sweeteners bind to the mucin instead, slowing the onset, he said. Since the noncaloric sweetener arrives at the receptor over a protracted period, the apparent sweetness maximal intensity is lower. As the sweetener binds again in the mucous hydrogel as it diffuses away from the receptor, the sweetener is able to diffuse back to the receptor over and over, thereby iteratively activating the receptor. This is observed as sweetness linger, he said.
Salivary mucin is maintained in a very compact form by binding to calcium while inside the salivary gland, DuBois said. "And then on secretion of saliva, the calcium is retained in the salivary gland cells and mucin expands to form the hydrogel coating the tongue." Thus, DuBois and his team began to formulate Reb A with calcium salts, thinking that calcium ion would bind to the mucin to create pores or channels in the mucous hydrogel, thereby enabling a more-rapid diffusion to and from the receptor. "Later," he said, "we found that a mixture of magnesium and calcium salts was more effective than calcium alone. In fact we found that calcium and magnesium were synergistic with each other.
"But as we started experimenting with calcium salts as well as with calcium/magnesium salt blends, we noticed that they also introduced a marked mouthfeel increase," DuBois said. Japanese scientists at Ajinomoto, he said, had earlier found that the calcium-sensing receptor is expressed in a subset of taste bud cells and their activation leads to "kokumi taste," which they translate as "mouthfulness."
Thus, since our taste modulator system is a mixture of calcium and magnesium salts, both being agonists at the calcium sensing receptor, it was clear as to why we were observing sugar-like mouthfeel. Finally, in our ongoing research to find effective taste modulation systems for Reb A and other noncaloric sweeteners, we found that mixtures of calcium, magnesium and potassium salts were even better than the binary blend of a calcium and a magnesium salt."

A total of 2021 million 48 thousand 436 passengers were transported in the 86 million 913 thousand kilometers covered in 388 with the tram and bus vehicles operating on the rail systems served by the Kayseri Metropolitan Municipality.
With the first test drive in Kayseri in 2008 and the start of rail system passenger transportation activities in 2009, environmental friendly, comfortable, safe and economical transportation was provided, and millions of passengers also benefited from this opportunity.
MORE THAN 27 MILLION PASSENGERS ARE TRANSPORTED WITH THE RAIL SYSTEM
While carrying a total of 2021 million 4 thousand 336 passengers on the 27 million 313 thousand kilometers road in 388, 1 thousand disinfection processes were carried out in 32 year as part of the fight against the corona virus.
EFFECTIVE, FUNCTIONAL, SUSTAINABLE AND SAFE PUBLIC TRANSPORT
New lines are being added at two different points to the existing rail system lines, the length of which is 35 kilometers. While the construction works of the Talas Anayurt Tram Line Project on one hand and the Anafartalar-Şehir Hospital-Mobilyakent Tram Line Project on the other hand are being carried out, it will have reached 48 kilometers with the commissioning of the projects. On the other hand, compared to public transportation vehicles such as buses with diesel-powered engines, our rail system vehicles take on a more environmentally friendly function with the type of energy they use, while saving time due to fast transportation.
NUMBER OF PASSENGERS BY BUS APPROACHES 60 MILLION
Also, Transportation Inc. It covered 59 million 600 thousand kilometers in 2021, carrying 44 million 100 thousand passengers with bus vehicles through bus companies. The number of disinfection processes in buses reached 1 thousand in 93 year.
ENVIRONMENTAL TRANSPORTATION
Stating that a total of 1 million 48 thousand 436 passengers were transported in 86 million 913 thousand kilometers covered in 388 year by tram and bus vehicles, Metropolitan Mayor Dr. Memduh Büyükkılıç, in his statement on the subject, stated that they work day and night in order to both reduce the traffic density and increase the comfort in transportation.
Büyükkılıç stated that they also attach importance to environmentally friendly transportation, and stated that they provide a sustainable and reliable public transportation in Kayseri that is environmentally friendly with the type of energy used, effective with the passenger capacity it carries, and functional with the technology it uses.
Emphasizing the number of passengers approaching 2021 million by public transport in 100, President Büyükkılıç said, "We are continuing our efforts to make transportation more comfortable. Our aim is to create a permanent, healthy transportation network that protects the backbone of our city and provides comfort in the best way possible. In addition, Kayseri Metropolitan Municipality Department of Transportation Planning and Rail System has integrated the information of the stops and public transportation vehicles within the center and rural transportation in Kayseri into their mobile phones with the mobile phone application called 'KBBTRAFİK'.

    else if (//some condition)
        f = new Exponential();
    ...

    else if (//some condition)
        f = new Logarithmic();

    string der = f->derivative();
}

My guess is that the problem is caused by the pointer *f  losing the assigned value after
the if-statement (by initializing it to Function *f = new Function(); I get an
exception instead of a SegFault, meaning that it calls the method in the parent class).
In case it may help, I am working in a QT environment on a Ubuntu 13.10 machine.
Can someone help me fix this or suggest an alternative pattern? Thanks

A: That:
Function *f;
if (//some condition)
    *f = new Polynomial();

Is probably causing the crash.
Should be:
    f = new Polynomial();

A: It looks like to me that you are falling off the end of your if-else ladder and calling derivative() on a bad pointer, leading to the run-time SEGFAULT. Add a final else that exits with an error to verify this.
Beyond that, you should be using f = new Polynomial();, etc., as people elsewhere have said. I'm assuming you actually are if your source compiles.

A: Function *f;
if (//some condition)
    *f = new Polynomial();

should at least give a warning because f is used (by the dereferencing operator) uninitialized, and should actually be a typecheck error since new Polynomial() has type Function* -it is a pointer- but *f has type Function&. You mean
Function* f;
if (somecondition)
    f = new Polynomial();

Please compile with all warnings and debug info, i.e. g++ -Wall -Wextra -g. Then learn how to use the gdb debugger and the valgrind memory leak detector.

Will Muschamp not happy with Auburn's defensive front

Will Muschamp not happy with Auburn's defensive front Will Muschamp on Auburn's rushing defense through five games this season: "ain't nobody ever got to throw it" Check out this story on montgomeryadvertiser.com: https://on.mgmadv.com/1RuDMj8
Matthew Stevens, Montgomery Advertiser Published 8:42 p.m. CT Oct. 7, 2015
AUBURN – Will Muschamp is happy to walk the opposing game plan over any future offensive coordinator Auburn might face in the coming weeks.
"Hell, ain't nobody ever got to throw it," Muschamp said.
When asked about the progress of his defense through five games, the Auburn defensive coordinator was less than flattering when describing the results of a front seven that has allowed opponents to rush for 209.6 yards per game.
"When you get in the season and you worry about schematics, you lose some fundamental things," Muschamp said. "In my error, we've gotten away from some of those things. We need to be much better, much improved at that. We haven't made as much progress as we need to."

During the bye week practices, Muschamp is continuing his search for the best players at each position and Auburn head coach Gus Malzahn has made it clear this week that most positions have reopened nearly halfway through the 2015 season.
"As far as defense, every day is competition," Auburn senior defensive back Jonathan Jones said Tuesday. "I mean, your job is up for grabs every day. Every day you come out you're getting evaluated. We have our production and you can see how you're contributing, so that's every day you're up for evaluation."
Auburn currently ranks 108th in the nation in rushing defense, which is the fifth worst of Power 5 conference schools, and have record just one sack in the last three games.
Muschamp suggested more personnel changes on the defensive line could occur when the Tigers (3-2, 0-2 in Southeastern Conference) travel to Kentucky (4-1, 2-1 in SEC) for a Thursday night matchup on Oct. 15 (6 p.m., ESPN). During the first game after Muschamp promised significant lineup shuffling, Auburn held Mississippi State to just 56 yards on the ground but still lost 17-9.
"It's not certainly something I'm used to," Muschamp said Wednesday evening. "It's not something we need to become accustomed to, either, but I really thought after the Mississippi State game we had really made some progress and (Auburn assistant athletic director for communication) Kirk Sampson told me after the game that's the first time since '08 Auburn has held an SEC opponent to under 60 yards rushing.
The issue for Muschamp is the rushing defense success against MSU didn't carry over to the 35-21 victory over San Jose State the very next week. The Spartans had 182 rushing yards and nearly five yards per carry.
"I'm disappointed with our progress as far as that is concerned," Muschamp said. "It's been very inconsistent across the board. Linebacker, defensive line and even on the perimeter in the first drive against Mississippi State, we weren't as firm as we needed to be."
One of the positive parts of the Auburn defensive effort Saturday against San Jose State might have been senior Cassanova McKinzy's first start at BUCK pass rusher. Auburn turned to McKinzy Saturday in the 35-21 against San Jose State to move from middle linebacker to the BUCK position in order to replace the injured Carl Lawson. Muschamp said the coaching staff "would take a look at" playing McKinzy permanently at the BUCK position. After his debut performance, McKinzy provides a new look that essentially transformed Will Muschamp's defense into more of a 3-4 look with the senior as a standing rusher. The senior had four tackles, a tackle for loss and a sack Saturday.
"It's not like I was putting my hand in the ground and playing defensive end because I was mostly standing up and following the ball wherever it was," McKinzy said. "People make a big deal out of it but I didn't need to worry about as much except my job was to get pressure."
One of the other elements that could help the Auburn defense is getting linebacker Tre' Williams (left knee) and Tim Irving (foot) back from injury in the next game against Kentucky. Williams was cleared to play but Muschamp said he didn't like the way he reacted to a pre-game workout Saturday and Irving was back out at practice this week after suffering a bone bruise in your foot.

WILLIAMS: Pros & cons of the Matt Campbell hire
Chris Williams, Nov 29 •	0 Comments
Five years ago, I likely would have come on here and written that hiring Matt Campbell from Toledo was the greatest thing to ever happen to Iowa State football.
I have unfortunately developed a bit of a callus over the years, which allows me to look at things more objectively these days.
This is a nice hire for Jamie Pollard and Iowa State.
It is specifically impressive that he was able to sell Campbell on choosing Iowa State over Missouri, if that is really what happened late Saturday night.
I'm not prepared to call this a "home run" or anything like that though because frankly, I don't know.
Nobody does.
Campbell, who has led the Rockets to a 35-15 record since taking over for Tim Beckman at the 2011 Military Bowl, has been great during his time at Toledo. There is no doubt about that. Campbell is a charismatic young football coach who appears to have a very bright future.
But Toledo ain't Iowa State. There is a lot to learn here.
Let's weigh what I perceive to be the pros and cons of this hire.
— I think that realistically, this is about as good as Iowa State could have done in the current market to find its next head coach.
As noted above, the fact that Jamie Pollard reportedly wrestled Campbell away from Missouri makes me feel better. It's just like recruiting prospects to Ames… I don't really care how many stars a kid has next to his name. I want to know who else wanted him. If it's Akron and Northern Iowa, I'm generally not that interested.
The fact that a quality SEC program wanted Campbell is a good sign. It's the opposite of a guy like Tony Alford (who I am incredibly high on for what it's worth), a long time assistant at big time programs who has yet to receive his big break. Why? You tell me.
— I'm on record stating that I think Iowa State has a team capable of getting back to the postseason next year. The talent is certainly there to do so.
When you consider that, there are two main reasons why this hire makes sense.
1) Campbell has almost a half-decade of head coaching experience. He won't be learning on the job with a quality team at his disposal.
2) If you've done any research on Campbell or watched videos like these, you will notice an understated demeanor that I think will fit very well with Iowa State's current roster. It's been well documented how close this team was to Paul Rhoads. Campbell doesn't appear to be much of a screamer. To the naked eye, there isn't much ego here. Going from Rhoads to a guy like Bo Pelini would have been a disaster. For the locker room, this transition should be pretty seamless.
— In addition to this being a good fit with the current roster, I think that Campbell will fit in with that "Iowa State culture" that Pollard is always talking about. I do think that he will be well received by the fan base once you guys get to know him. That doesn't equal wins, obviously, but it might spike ticket sales, which are important too.
— Of all the realistic options that I am aware of, this hire gives Iowa State the best chance to be good next year.
— The big reason I was high on a guy like Western Michigan's P.J. Fleck was because I think he could have done some major damage on the recruiting trail at a Big 12 school like Iowa State. The proof is there that he can recruit: Fleck's current class as Western Michigan is ranked 35 spots higher than Iowa State's (for the record, Toledo's is ranked higher too) according to Rivals.com.
Campbell's current roster at Toledo currently boasts two players from the state of Texas, where he has no ties that I am aware of. In Campbell's current 2016 recruiting class at Toledo, there is one committed prospect from the state of Texas.
Campbell is big in Ohio and Pennsylvania, which isn't exactly Big 12 country.
I'm totally fine with Iowa State heavily recruiting the Midwest if you are going to play a style of football that makes sense with it. But when you play in the Big 12 (and almost half the teams in the league are from Texas), you simply have to recruit Texas too.
Hiring the right staff is going to be critical (which I'll get to momentarily) for this to work.
— It's the same story as when Iowa State hired Steve Prohm from Murray State (and we are still waiting to see how that is going to turn out). Both of these guys are coming from the best job in a mid-major league and transitioning to an incredibly challenging job in the Big 12. Both men inherited those great jobs at Murray State and Toledo.
This type of hire always scares me.
The fact that they come from winning cultures and have head coaching experience is great.
But name a Toledo coach that has failed over the last 20 years? Everybody wins there. The same can be said for Murray State.
I'm not saying that he can't do well at Iowa State, but life is about to get real for Matt Campbell. I trust that he is ready to embrace the challenges of the Big 12.
I'm excited to hear Campbell's vision when he's introduced as Iowa State's next head coach.
I'm obsessed with the type of coaching staff that Campbell is going to put together at Iowa State.
He needs ties with Iowa high schools. As I noted last week, bringing a guy like Tom Wilson (Dowling) or Gary Swensen (Valley) on board would be smart. Current Rhoads development staffer Mitchell Moore could provide the same benefit.
Based off of the fact that he came from Campbell's staff at Toledo, I guess we all can assume that Louis Ayeni will stay on board? That's big for the sake of recruiting and staff continuity. He has been one of the more impressive members of the Rhoads staff for the last two years.
My assumption is that Iowa State will formally announce the hiring today and a press conference will occur on Monday.
This will surely make for an exciting couple of days!

Q: Image does not show on leading part of list tile when using Circle Avatar and back ground image I am building this app and just have a small UI problem. I am using a ListView builder. On the leading part of the tile, I want a circular icon to display with the desired image.
I believe my implementation is correct but when I run my code the circle avatar does come out on the leading part of the tile but it does not display the desired image. Instead, it just shows a blue circle on the leading end of each tile.
I am also getting an exception from the terminal. I will attach my code and the exception that I am getting. I would really appreciate suggestions from anyone. Thank you all!
