The creators are at every game to ensure the players are as happy as possible and the games are as fair as possible. Each game is monitored by two professionally trained and dressed referees and statistics are recorded by seasoned stat keepers.
X Flag Football Rules
In X Flag Football the games consist of two 20 minute halves. Games are played on fields that are 60 yards by 30 yards with two 10 yard deep endzones. Field markers are set at mid-field (30 yard line), the ten yard lines, and each endzone. Teams consist of up to 12 players on the roster, with a minumum of 4 and maximum of 5 players on the field. Touchdowns are worth 6 points and extra points can be 1 (from 5 yards) or 2 (from 10 yards) points. Safties are worth 2 points.

XsCapacity is a term being coined for the utilization of excess semi trailer space. This new term references the use of under utilized or excess capacity in semi-trailer space for the movement of cargo and freight around the country. The meaning of this title is two fold and is utilized in the marketing of this type of services by various entities including freight brokers, freight forwarders and other.
1. Creates a significant reduction in pollution by reducing the amount of trailers on the road at any given time.
2. Reduces the cost of manufacturing overhead by reducing the cost associated with the shipment of finished goods around the country.
XsCapacity is a shortened version of Excess Capacity and definition is defined the same as excess capacity published by Glossary of Industrial Organization Economics and Competition Law, compiled by R. S. Khemani and D. M. Shapiro, commissioned by the Directorate for Financial, Fiscal and Enterprise Affairs, OECD, 1993.
Definition of Excess Capacity, the fully lengthened version of XsCapacity:
Excess capacity refers to a situation where a firm is producing at a lower scale of output than it has been designed for, in this context the production of goods is the empty trailer space that is utilized by shippers in the reduction of cost and pollution.

AutoNOC is a highly scalable production network management platform that utilizes novel distributed grid technologies. The software is developed and maintained by , a company founded in 1997 and based in Atlanta, Georgia. AutoNOC's founder and the primary software architect is Kyle Lussier. AutoNOC is currently used by various organizations including community colleges, university-wide WANs, eCommerce companies, and financial institutions. It is estimated that the AutoNOC software is used to manage and monitor 3 to 4% of global Internet traffic.
Automated Network Operations Using Grid/Distributed Computing
AutoNOC supports a computational model that allows many servers (called grid nodes) to be deployed. These grid nodes work together to form a large internetworked computer that shares operations tasks across all servers. Data access, acquisition, processing, and aggregation is distributed and shared across all grid nodes.
When a user connects to an AutoNOC node, this node presents to the user an interface that represents all computational resources and servers currently at use. Information across the many servers is integrated and the user may utilize the assets across the grid to perform data analysis and design custom user views of network information and things happening on networks.
Supported Platforms
AutoNOC currently supports the following operating systems:
* Linux/Red Hat
* Windows 2000/2003/XP
Processing Architectures (32/64 Bit)
AutoNOC has been released and is supported for the following CPU architectures:
* [http://en. .org/wiki/X86 Intel x86 (32-Bit)]
* [http://en. .org/wiki/EM64T#Intel_64 Intel Emu64 (64-Bit Hybrid)]
*
*
Security and Open Port Information
AutoNOC currently makes use of the following IP ports:
* Port 80 (HTTP)
* Port 443 (SSL)
* Port 1140 (ANOC)
In the case of port 80, this is a user configurable port and may be modified by the user. Port 443 (SSL) is a standard HTTPS implementation providing secure HTTP services for secure authentication.
Port 1140 is an that is registered for the reserved use of AutoNOC. The port provides grid node to grid node interactions, as well as a serviceable operations interpreter for which users may connect to, extract data, and interact with the network operations model in a globally integrated manner.
Supported Protocols
AutoNOC supports connection, monitoring and management via the following protocols:
*
*
*
*
*
* Variety of Other Derivative of Sockets
Technical Achievements
The following are the primary technical / architectural achievements of the AutoNOC software.
* 2005 - 1st NMS to Handle 1,000,000 Probes at 60 Second Intervals on a Single 64-Bit Server
* 2007/2008 - 1st NMS to to Integrate 10,000,000 Probes Across a Multinational Network on One Live Platform
* 2007/2008 - 1st NMS to Handle Up To 100 Terabytes of Network Mapped Live Historical Data on One Model
Direct verification of these achievements is available by either downloading and setting up the software to test these circumstances, or to qualified individuals who may request a site appointment of a live installation.
Releases
There are two existing, generally available releases of the AutoNOC software:
* AutoNOC 2.5 (Velocity)
* AutoNOC 3.0 (Nadia)
Velocity is the most widely deployed release of AutoNOC. Nadia is the fully distributed grid operations platform.

Ryan Breska
Ryan R. Breska (born April 10, 1981 in Orange, Ca) is the CEO of the internet based distribition company Pridedriven Wholesale.
Ryan gained notariety as a College athlete for his work on and off the field. A highly touted prospect coming out of high school, he accepted a full scholarship to play football at Purdue University.
----
College Career
Purdue University
Ryan redshirted his freshman year as a back up Quarterback to future NFL star Drew Brees. When it became apparent that he was not to be the replacement for Brees; he looked to transfer and the road eventually lead him to the University of Utah and Ron McBride.
University Of Utah
One of a small group of two-sport athletes in Division 1 college athletics, Ryan was a member of the football and baseball teams at Utah. He dislocated his shoulder and tore his labrum before he could compete for the starting spot at Utah. During his only season he went 9 for 22 in four games as a backup to Lance Rice.
Finding his niche on the baseball diamond in 2003 and 2004, he became a middle relief pitcher for the University of Utah baseball team. Respected by his teammates for his work ethic and leadership; he was voted "Most Inspirational Player" in 2004. His ERA for the 2004 season was 14.54.
The Prank
Ryan made his mark on the state of Utah, and nationally by a college prank he organized before a baseball game with rival university BYU. In April 2004, Ryan and seven other Utah baseball players hiked onto the hillside above BYU's campus where lies a large concrete "Y." The players then painted the landmark red, and proceeded to take pictures of themselves in front of their handiwork. Ten days later, an employee of a discount store in Salt Lake notified the police that a customer had recently developed pictures of himself and friends in front of the painted "Y." The customer happened to be Ute pitcher Ryan Breska, and the store employee happened to be a BYU fan. When Breska returned to pick up his photos, police were waiting to arrest him. Breska and the rest of "The Utah 8" (as they became known) were charged with second-degree felony mischief, a charge that carries a maximum sentence of 15 years in prison. After much media publicity and public debate, the players plea bargained to reduce the charges to class B misdemeanors and a fine of $6,267.20.
