Wolves 3 Carlisle United 0 - match report and pictures
Wolves became the best third tier team in history after strolling to a 3-0 win against Carlisle, who were relegated.
Captain Sam Ricketts after five minutes, Michael Jacobs (23) and Nouha Dicko's 12th goal of the season on 56 gave Kenny Jackett's League One champions the win they needed to overhaul Charlton's 101-point record and finish on 103, the most ever at this level.
Wolves were in control throughout and could have scored many more goals as Dicko twice, Ricketts and substitute James Henry went close to adding to their tally.
Carl Ikeme kept Wolves' 25th clean sheet of the season, one of six club records to be broken along with most points, consecutive wins, most overall wins, most away wins, and least away goals conceded.
Jackett made three changes to the side that drew 1-1 away to Coventry last week.
Sam Ricketts, Bakary Sako and Nouha Dicko replaced Matt Doherty, James Henry and Liam McAlinden, who all dropped to the bench where Leon Clarke returned after missing the Sky Blues game with a groin injury.
Wolves, attacking the Stan Cullis Stand end, started in bright sunshine in front of a packed and colourful Molineux.
Many fans were waving gold and black flags, while there was a new Toaster Wolves banner hanging from the South Bank balcony proclaiming 'Ours Again' in recognition of the team winning League One – the club's 10th title.
The home side dominated the first half and deservedly moved into a two-goal lead which could have been more.
Lee Evans had the first attempt after three minutes but his shot had the sting taken out of it by a deflection and keeper Jordan Pickford was able to collect.
Wolves fans didn't have long to wait to celebrate a goal as they took the lead in the next attack.
Ricketts took possession and cut inside from the right before unleashing a low, left-foot drive that bounced off the turf and nestled into Pickford's near post.
It was his second successive goal at Molineux after opening his account in the 6-4 win against Rotherham on Good Friday.
Kevin McDonald saw a drive blocked from just outside the box on eight minutes before Carlisle's first attempt, with David Amoo fired woefully wide on the counter-attack three minutes later.
Lee Miller looped a header well over from James Berrett's corner on 13 but Wolves again showed a clinical edge by doubling their lead midway through the half.
Not for the first time, Jacobs showed tremendous spring to plant a towering header in off the post from six yards out after Dicko failed to get to Bakary Sako's cross for his eighth goal of the season.
Carlisle had been very much second best and finally gave Ikeme something to do eight minutes before the break when Matt Robson advanced from the left-back position and let fly with a firm angled drive from the edge of the box.
But it flew straight into the arms of Ikeme.
The goalmouth action switched to the other end where Dicko had two chances to make it 3-0 before half-time, both set up by the excellent Ricketts.
First he failed to connect properly with a falling volley, then he should have buried a centre as Carlisle's defence parted on the edge of the six-yard box, but instead volleyed well over the bar.
The visitors, who swapped David Amoo and Danny Redmond for Pascal Chimbonda and Sam Byrne at half-time, started the second half looking sharper.
But it was Wolves who continued to look more dangerous and carve out the better chances after taking a while to get going again.
The unmarked Dicko headed inches wide from six yards out from Scott Golbourne's cross after Sako ran at the defence.
Miller allowed Wolves to regroup after he checked inside and Ricketts blocked his shot after he advanced into a threatening position.
But Wolves soon made their possession count again when they made it 3-0.
Dicko slammed home a first-time shot from eight yards out after Golbourne's sidefooted effort was palmed away following Sako's cross.
Dave Edwards was given a standing ovation as he made way for James Henry in the 65th minute, and you can't help thinking this won't be the last we see of the out-of-contract midfielder.
Wolves continued to dominate as the Mexican waves rolled around a carnival-like Molineux, and the team were guilty of trying to walk the ball into the net at times.
Evans finally lashed wide at the end of one intense period of pressure in the 68th minute, before the outstanding Ricketts saw a shot blocked after cutting inside.
Ricketts was then the central figure in an attack that saw him steaming into the box unmarked to latch onto a backheel by Jacobs to set up Dicko but the striker couldn't squeeze in a shot with his back to goal and a defender and Pickford for company and the keeper collected.
Dicko became the second player to receive a standing ovation when he was replaced by Clarke in the 80th minute.Subscribe to our Newsletter

How would you like your humble pie served?
You really are a jealous and bitter fool.
To all the other wolves fans, congratulations on winning the title. I hope you establish yourselves in the championship, who knows what then.
Farmer Ted
He's a constant source of embarrassment to most of the Wolves posters on this site.
Bigoted and ignorant.
I'm glad Blues stayed up, I got good mates who are Bluenoses, plus we like St Andrews. I would also like the next Black Country derby to be in the Premiership.
We've had a season to remember, thanks for your congratulations.
Spot on Farmer Ted he makes us look stupid..
The Real Bully Hoo.
Well done and good luck to the 99.9% of decent Wulfies and well done Blues as well. A strong West Midlands scene can only be good for all of our clubs.

What a fantastic turnaround Jacket has achieved!!!!??
Also not forgetting the Chairman and CEO who yes do deserve some credit for supporting their new manager.
Don't forget, another clean sheet.
Well done Carl, well done defenders, WELL DONE WOLVES.
The Flying Winger
Yes that too!!!!!
Thank you.
Well done, Wolves. You've made a 73 years old supporter very happy.
Solent, it does me too, you would have enjoyed the atmosphere, it was Gold n Black, everywere in and around Molinuex
Congratulations to EVERYONE, beginning with Wolves' ownership, love or loathe them, along with the club's administration, team management, support staff, players and...the best SUPPORTERS (so say 2013-14 statistics) in the West Midlands!
Thus, carry the day to next season. We may have our typical detractors, those who doubt us, but these are the expected sentiments derived from those who either fear or envy what Wolves are about. We are going to challenge next season. For now, however, enjoy the day and well done to all involved.
Fantastic season - now for a well-deserved break. Next season will be a massive scrap, but with a few additions over the summer, I'm sure we'll be in the mix
Now for the Championship.Run like a military operation, smooth and efficient. Well done everyone. Did us good going back to basics. Derek Dougans Dog........
We're playing the baggies next season...

Great game, great win! What a day. Well done WWFC, KJ and all the staff and in particular the players.
It's a great feeling. I wish that they didn't boo Morgan and his family when he came on after everything it spoilt the afternoon a bit. Thank god Moxey didn't come on!
Onwards and upwards.
Look forward to next season.
Very happy.
Doncaster Wolf
Well done and THANK YOU to everyone connected with the Wolves! What we saw today at Molineux was proof that Wolverhampton has fallen in love with its football club again. Onwards and upwards!! COYW !!
Cookley Wolf
What a season! And let's make sure we really savour it, because surely most of us in the crowd today will never get to see another season quite like this one, where we've absolutely steamrollered the division, smashing records and opponents aside for fun. The routine manner in which we took Carlisle apart today meant there was a fairly reserved atmosphere for the last half hour or so. Perhaps not too surprising as promotion had already been clinched, the title was already ours and this particular game was all but won.
At the final whistle Kenny Jackett and the boys finally allowed themselves to properly celebrate what has been a fantastic achievement, and so did the fans, as a packed stadium gave the team a heroes reception. George Elokobi and his young daughter were given an emotional and memorable farewell on his lap of honour, whilst after last year's bitter recriminations it was fitting that Mr Morgan and his family were accorded polite, if not warm, applause from the South Bank when they came onto the pitch to lead the presentation ceremony.
Indeed, congratulations must go particularly to both Morgan and Moxey, whose own performances have been really spot-on this year. Their operation has been a resounding success. The appointment of Jackett now seems to have been an absolute masterstroke - his management style, technical knowledge, progressive tactics and entire persona are quite literally in a different league to anything shown by the last three incumbents.
So it is with renewed faith and optimism that we look forward to next season. I would be delighted to reach the play offs, but let's not get too far ahead of ourselves. We couldn't ask for more than we've had this season. And my favourite moment? Without doubt, that swashbuckling last 5 minutes against Rotherham to win 6-4 and basically secure the title. Unforgettable stuff!
Excellent post, Cookley Wolf. For overseas fans, this gave us a great insight into what happened from a fan's point of view, particularly during the celebrations. Wish I could have been there.
What a magic season we've had, and who would have thought a year ago that we would feel like this now?
Up the mighty Wolves.
PS - please can somebody explain the significance of the toaster banner, and the toasters on the signs in the North Bank? Where did it all start?
Its a season to make you smile, thanks WWFC, and well done to Blues see you next season.
Bedford Wolf
For me Lee Evans was outstanding today in a very very good team performance.
Fantastic.... I'm going to miss getting up Sunday morning and reading the match report and seeing how we've won again. Great season so pleased for everyone at the club and especially the fans. UTW
Cookley, don't forget the unsung hero, Kevin Thelwell.
Fantastic season , well done to all associated with Wolverhampton Wanderers LTW
Fantastic season, One we will never forget , so sad to see George at the end,he was hugging everybody and seemed so sad to go but that's life!! The fans have been fantastic and pleased they didn't spoil the celebrations.Proud today.
The Flying Winger
Yes Sue, what a season with many memorable games and performances.
Pride in abundance!!!!!
From chumps to champs. Well done to everyone and particularly the main man, KJ. I'm a Londoner and I can only guess what a lift this is for the city of Wolverhampton. Enjoy the moment Kenny, have a great holiday, and come back ready to hit the ground running again as you did last season. Your time has come, your career to date has prepared you for the task of putting Wolves back where we belong.
Lads,what is the toaster all about on the banners....I cor work it out......someone help me there please.
101 chicken chow mein
Jenko not 100% but been told its a group of fans from towcester.
Perhaps it was because the players had already got promotion and the title in the bag and were relaxed, that they were able to totally dominate the game from start to finish. Or was it simply that Carlisle were just woeful and showed exactly why they're in a different direction to Wolves. Either way, Wolves won one of the easiest matches of the season.
On a sunny afternoon, with records being broken in front of almost full house, it was just a perfect day.
albrighton, from my seat in the sb, it seemed to be a combination of
players mentally already on the beach and carlisle playing very poorly, think they had 3 shots on target all match.
defensively ricketts and baath were a wee bit too casual, stearman got away with one wayward pass, but apart from that the team performance was a routine victory, which could have been easily 5 or 6. oh and well done to the south bank for not ruining the trophy presentation. utw.
Just wonderful. UTW.
You report "proclaiming 'Ours Again' " was that not the exact same thing in capital letters on the front of "The Pink" back in 1960 after winning the FA Cup ??
101 chicken chow mein
I think your correct honved, i have a copy of this knocking about somwhere passed down to me by my dear old dad.
I'm glad someone else picked this up.
The reference goes back further ... The headline after they won the FA cup in 1949 read "Its Ours"
The headline, after they won it again in 1960 was "Ours Again"
I am fortunate to have copies of both Pinks
Congratulations to all concerned. Can't wait for "the lads" to get back into the Premiership (where they belong) ... if nothing more, than to let us overseas fans to watch them every week on TV.
Jenko66 - I have no idea either!!
Mountain Wolf
There has rarely been a day when I have felt more proud of anything. Kenny, Jackett, we fans owe you big time. Incidentally, it would be interesting to have some feedback from the supporter from down south who was making his first ever Molineux visit, courtesy of having decorated for his daughter.
Now lets all go along to give Jody a great send-off tomorrow,and support the magnificent work and effort he has put in helping the sick and under privileged at Birmingham Children,s Hospital.
Ye Olde South Bank
What a great, great day for our Gold & Black City. It's been a season of eye-opening resurgence as KJ ditched the old guard and fixed everything that needed fixing. Quite how Kenny achieved what he did in so short a time is almost nothing short of miraculous. Quite how the boys responded to KJ's revolution in their magnificent style speaks volumes for their faith in him.
Wolvo desperately needed some new heroes to lift the gloom from a truly depressed city. Today, whilst doing a spot of shopping, I sensed a tangible, upbeat mood as the sun shone down. It's amazing how this city is so singularly tuned to the exploits of its beloved football club. There again, those of us born here know only too well how Wolves are the very heartbeat of Wolverhampton. Let's hope messrs Morgan and Moxey now realise it, too.
Thanks, Kenny. Thanks, lads. It's been an unforgettable ride, and one to remember for many a year to come. Pride and confidence has certainly been restored as Wolves rose phoenix-like from the ashes. It's only the beginning, though, if we're to see the mighty Wolves restored to the place where we all believe that they should be. The real hard work starts now.
Brilliant day, worth the round trip from Kent to witness the moment!
So pleased for everyone involved and attached to this beloved club.
Fantastic atmosphere, good football and amazing crowd of supporters !
Well done Wolves and especially Kenny Jackett. you are an inspiration. You have returned the spring in the step and the pride to Wolverhampton.
Such a good feeling not to have to worry about this team. They are all right !
I am convinced that we are going to go from strength to strength next season.
Wish everyone a great summer and see you in the Champoinship X
was in the steve bull stand,
average performance.......bet, utw
I was sat in the Steve Bull Upper Row A Seat 230. Got talking to a young lad next to me (must have been in 229, with his dad in 228). The boy was about 12/13 I guess, but how refreshing to talk to someone so young, so bright and knowledgeable about the game, a credit to his dad..!!! I asked who he was voting for in the player of the year vote and he told me David Edwards.......interesting that, I guess he's not a ball watcher that lad......!!!! The future is bright if we have such intelligent young fans......UTW
MOTM yesterday was difficult to chose as everyone played well, but if pushed I would give it to Lee Evans....
Roll on August....
It was the easiest game of the season, I've seen, they never broke sweat during a most enjoyable afternoon, in front of a sea of Gold n Black. I would like to give my m.o.t.m to everyone connected to WWFC, home and abroad. UTW:

My work had a day at the zoo for families, which was really cool. Everything was free, including breakfast, lunch and snacks, the pet the stingrays exibit, train rides (the kids' favorite). My parents & sister (& her 2 kids, who somehow also happen to be my niece & nephew) were in town, so they came along too. Afterwards, I came home, laid out by the pool with some beers for a few hours. Finally, I went with some old friends to a free concert with Sheryl Crow & Elvis Costello (too much Sheryl, not enough Elvis) under the St. Louis Arch. After 1/3 of the crowd left, they came back out for one final encore and played Led Zeppelin - Rock and Roll, (probably the best, highest energy song that was played all night)... and then fireworks were shot over the Mississippi river... not a bad Saturday.
Today I'm going to the homerun derby.

- Description
This September 11th Barcelona has witnesed the biggest demonstration ever in its history. The march has been organized by the citizenship to demand freedom for Catalonia. Between 1.5M and 2M people have marched peacefully together with a single message: 'Catalonia, a New European Country'.
To give adequate witness to this massive historical event we have shot this amazing gigapan.
To better understand the significance of September 11th, Catalonia is a nation that has been in search of freedom and independence for itself for a few centuries. Catalona has its own distinct culture and its own Catalan language. Both have more than a thousand years of history and are prevalent at all levels of society, from day to day street talk to politics, media, academic research, etc.
The Catalan language is ranked the 75th from 6,900 languages around the world. According to Ethnologue ( www.ethnologue.com/ethno_docs/distribution.asp?by=size Will open in a new tab or window), Catalan has around 10M speakers, more than Norwegian (132th), Hebrew (121), Danish (118) or Swedish (88th). Catalan is also the 9th EU language according to number of people having an understanding of it and the 11th according to level of use.
September 11th is the Catalan national day as it is on that very same date in 1714 that Catalonia received its greatest ever military blow. Every 11th of September, Catalonia remembers that the Catalan troops defending Barcelona were defeated by the army of Spanish king Felipe V. That king abolished the Catalan nation and forbade Catalan as a language.
Once in the beginning of the twentieth century, Catalonia experienced a great renaissance, both socially and culturally (sporting worldwide-celebrated artists such as Gaudí) and had big freedom aspirations. Such desires were squashed by the fascist revolution led by General Franco who -victorious after a bitter civil war and helped by Hitler and the Nazi regime- in 1939 started a dictatorship that lasted nearly 50 years. That fascist rule aimed to erase all traces of Catalan language and identity.
Since the outcome of decomcracy in spain in 1975, an ever increasing number Catalans have looked to independence as their future.
This September 11th has seen without any doubt the greatest march in Catalan history and probably one of the most remarkable in the world's history of democracy.

Just resting. Many things going on in my life (check user kwoo on LiveJournal if you're interested), and very few have anything to do with coding.
Actually, it's the lack of them that's driving me nuts -- namely, curses bindings for functional languages. I know that functional language purists scoff at such ideas, but I'm darn close to digging into O'Caml's FFI to make such a thing happen.

Alternate name: Cigar Tree
Family: Bignoniaceae, Trumpet Creeper view all from this family
Description Catalpa speciosa, commonly known as the northern catalpa, hardy catalpa, western catalpa, cigar tree, and catawba-tree, is native to the midwestern United States.
It is a medium-sized, deciduous tree growing to 15-30 meters tall and 12 meters wide. It has a trunk up to 1 m diameter, with brown to gray bark maturing into hard plates or ridges. The leaves are deciduous, opposite (or whorled), large, heart shaped, 20-30 cm long and 15-20 cm broad, pointed at the tip and softly hairy beneath. The flowers are 3-6 cm across, trumpet shaped, white with yellow stripes and purple spots inside; they grow in panicles of 10-30. The catalpa tree is the last tree to grow leaves in the spring. The leaves generally do not color in autumn before falling, instead, they either fall abruptly after the first hard freeze, or turn a slightly yellow-brown before dropping off. The winter twigs of northern catalpa are like those of few other trees, having sunken leaf scars that resemble suction cups. Their whorled arrangement (three scars per node) around the twigs is another diagnostic.
The fruit is a long, thin legume-like pod, 20-40 cm long and 10-12 mm diameter; it often stays attached to tree during winter (and can be mistaken for brown icicles). The pod contains numerous flat, light brown seeds with two papery wings.
It is closely related to southern catalpa, and can be distinguished by the flowering panicles, which bear a smaller number of larger flowers, and the slightly broader seed pods.
Habitat Canyons & valleys, Cities, suburbs & towns, Fields, Watersides (fresh).
Range Great Lakes, Texas, Southwest, Florida, New England, Plains, Mid-Atlantic, Southeast.
Comments Rapid growing and relatively short-lived, northern catalpa is adaptable to many different soils and sites, but is not particularly drought-tolerant. Catalpas are major litter producers, shedding flowers, small branches, large leaves and seedpods. Brittle branches break easily in wind storms. It is susceptible to defoliation by leaf blight and the sphinx moth caterpillar.
Exposure Preference Sun to partial sun.
Flower April - June
Native Distribution Originally native from w. Tennessee & n.e. Arkansas, to s.w. Indiana & e. Missouri; now widely naturalized in s.e. U.S.
Site Preference Moist, lowland woods; roadsides; waste places; uplands
Soil Preference Deep, rich, moist soils.

Man enters Alford plea to accessory to murder
SANDPOINT, Idaho - A northern Idaho man has entered an Alford plea to an accessory-to-murder charge filed after a 19-year-old man was shot to death last fall and buried in a shallow grave north of Hope.
The Bonner County Daily Bee reports 19-year-old Christopher Robin Garlin entered the plea Monday in 1st District Court. Under an Alford plea, a defendant does not admit guilt, but acknowledges prosecutors have enough evidence to gain a conviction. It is treated as a guilty plea for sentencing purposes.
Court records say Garlin told investigators he saw Austin Blake Thrasher shoot Michael Wyatt Smith last September.
Thrasher is charged with first-degree murder, but he has been found unable to assist in his own defense due to mental health issues.
Garlin's sentencing is set for Jan. 13.

Hayes signs NHL contract
Will report to San Jose's AHL affiliate
MANKATO, Min. - It did not take long for NHL teams to show interest in La Crescent native Eriah Hayes once his college career finished.
Just a few days after losing in the NCAA Tournament, Hayes signed a contract with the San Jose Sharks
"Obviously it feels really great. I don't know if there is a better feeling in the world, kind of sitting back and thinking about it and realizing that I signed an NHL contract. It's a dream come true."
Hayes says San Jose was one of three teams that were extremely interested in his services, with a few more NHL clubs making contact with him. The former Lancer became a free agent when Minnesota State's season came to an end.19642676
"I found that San Jose was the best organization and best fit for me. On Tuesday I signed the deal."
Hayes will immediately report to San Jose's AHL affiliate, the Worcester Sharks, for the remaining nine games left this season.
An All-WCHA Third Team selection in 2012-13, Hayes in his senior year at MSU tallied 20 goals and 16 assists for 36 points.

McLaren's Jenson Button has taken his second victory in mixed conditions at the Hungaroring, following his win under similar circumstances in Canada earlier this year. The Englishman was assured of victory in Hungary Grand Prix after his team mate Lewis Hamilton changed onto P Zero Blue intermediate tyres in the closing stages of the race only to find that the conditions were not wet enough, forcing him to revert to slicks in his fifth pit stop of the afternoon.
Button and Hamilton fought closely for a victory that centred around tyre strategy, with Hamilton having saved an extra set of P Zero Red supersoft tyres for the race during qualifying.
On lap 46, with light rain falling once more, Hamilton spun – allowing his team mate pass.
Hamilton's fightback on the P Zero Yellow soft tyre to fourth place in damp conditions was a highlight of the race, despite a drive-through penalty that meant he visited the pits six times in total. Like Button, Sebastian Vettel stopped three times and ran a final 29-lap stint on the soft tyre to claim the runner-up spot, 3.5 seconds behind the winner, while Fernando Alonso stopped four times in the Ferrari to take third.
Pirelli's motorsport director Paul Hembery commented: "It's been another fascinating race in mixed conditions which has allowed Jenson Button to demonstrate his skills of mastering changing weather and the capabilities of our P Zero tyres, which demonstrated both performance and durability throughout the grand prix. Even when rain was falling at the end of the race, Button managed to secure enough grip from the P Zero Yellow soft tyres to make sure of a well-deserved victory. I'm particularly pleased because the Hungaroring is a place that has not always been renowned for overtaking in the past, but today we saw plenty of it, in a race that contained more twists and turns than the circuit itself!"

One of New Zealand's most successful V8 race car drivers, Greg Murphy, is without a gig for next year and it's not looking great for him at the moment.
Couple that with Shane van Gisbergen deciding to take some time out and that only left one Kiwi, Fabian Coulthard, at BJR with a seat at end of the 2012 season.
It's not all bad news, though. Coulthard will now be joined by up-and-coming Kiwi Scott McLaughlin, who's signed a deal with Gary Rogers Motorsport to replace the departing Michael Caruso.
The 19-year-old has just won the New Zealand V8 SuperTourers title and the V8 Supercars Development Series over the course of seven days.
If you think that's good, in his first Bathurst 1000 McLaughlin finished sixth, driving with Jonathon Webb. Also, at the Sydney 500 a couple of weeks ago, Rogers handed him the keys to the team's main game car, replacing the ill Alexandre Premat.
In one of the toughest races on the calendar on one of the toughest street circuits, McLaughlin stayed out of trouble, and despite being hit with a pit-lane penalty drove a mature race and brought the car home in 17th on debut.
"All signed up now and I'm pretty happy," said McLaughlin. "There were a few options on the table for me but I'm really happy with this one.
"I'm really proud of my family and all my sponsors who have supported me over the years. This is what I've been working towards from way back when I was in karts."
The departing chairman and architect of the V8 Supercars, Tony Cochrane, thinks he's a young bloke with a bright future. "I think one of the real exciting things from a Kiwi point of view is clearly Scott McLaughlin," he said.
"I really think if properly handled and managed, not rushed and everyone being a bit patient, he'll be a real New Zealand superstar."
Praise indeed from a man who's seen plenty of very good peddlers.
Rogers has an eye for talent and has nurtured stars including four-time champion Jamie Whincup, Garth Tander, Jason Bargwanna, Lee Holdsworth and Michael Caruso.
"Gary's no fool and he's bought a lot of good, strong young drivers through and some of them are top championship contenders. Hopefully one day I'll be challenging as well," said McLaughlin.
His timing in entering the fray is almost perfect. The series introduces a new Car of the Future so it'll be pretty much a level playing field for all the teams.
Ross and Jimmy Stone arranged for McLaughlin to make the move into the Development Series a couple of years ago. He started with SBR working in the race shop as a fabricator and as part of the deal will finish his apprenticeship with GRM.
"If it wasn't for them [SBR] I wouldn't have the name I have now," said McLaughlin. "They were the ones who allowed me to drive their car first off. The family owns a trucking company and they [SBR] asked dad if he'd let a 16-year-old drive one of his big trucks and he said definitely not.
"That's when you realise how big a deal it was for them to let me drive one of their race cars. I can't thank them enough."
Families always play a big part in supporting youngsters on their journey to the top. McLaughlin's parents Diane and Wayne are very proud of their son and rightly so.
"He's been a delightful young guy to bring up," said Wayne. "He's sacrificed a lot of stuff. We couldn't be more proud."

Today was my last day working at Target (no time with upcoming school things), so yesterday I looked at a few other stores to take advantage of the discount but turned up with nothing. Oh well. I'm contemplating ordering the wave 5 case from EE since it includes the McQuarrie Vader, Hermie Odle, and McQuarrie Starkiller Hero, and I don't want to have to worry about those.
EDIT: . . . and of course it's sold out. At least I see that they're going to be shipping the McQuarrie figures more heavily from now on. Also, the Lafayette WM is relocating in a few days, and the current one hasn't stocked any TAC figures whatsoever, so I'm hoping the new one might have some good ones (though I kind of doubt it).

2004 springers
I wonder if any anglers out there can tell me if this 2004 Salmon season has got off to a very good start?or is it just normal.
I have been hearing of fish being caught off most rivers,Dee,Spey Tay and Tweed also some off the northern rivers have had some good days.
I hear the middle Tweed has fished rather well,along with the middle Dee,are there many coming from higher up? Aboyne and above,what about the Spey in the middle reaches,most people I speak to think its looking brighter this early on.
Does anyone out there have any information on the recapture rates of released fish?or has anyone ever caught a Salmon that has already been caught by rod and line.
I beleive it is commonplace in Russian angling!!
I cannot answer for any of the other rivers but the Spey is well up on last year.
James Butler, Speyboard Chairman said last week
>>Meanwhile, the total catch is 130, with 90% released. For the same
>>period last year the catch was about 50.
Most beats are returning the fish as per the board rules but there are exceptions. The Aberlour Association have killed the first 2 fish they caught. Kineromy are also killing a lot of fish. 7 that I know of. An old fisherman killed a fish at Tulcan D against the rules and the gillies wishes. He had irritated me a lunch time by wittering on what a load of rubbish catch and release is.
released fish can be caught again see, http://www.asf.ca/release/speyapr2003.html
The Catch and Release Tagging Project concluded in 2002 with 386 spring salmon (Feb.-May) and 473 summer salmon and grilse (June-Sept.) tagged and released. Recaptures of spring salmon varied, from 16% in 2000, to 7% in 2001 and 11% in 2002, with an average recapture rate of 10%.
Only two summer salmon were recaptured (0.4%). Recapture rates are highest for February fish, with 30% of fish caught again. However, recapture rates decline as the season progresses, with only 3% of June fish caught a second time. These figures may well reflect the actual exploitation rates of fish entering the river at different times of the year. When analysed in more detail it is evident that among spring salmon, fish caught and released in February-March can be recaptured until May,and fish caught in April-May are vulnerable until July.
Many spring fish can also be recaptured in September when the spawning season approaches. These findings confirm that spring salmon are particularly vulnerable to capture by anglers. Released fish were recaptured in every month except August, and therefore require measures to protect them beyond the spring period. These results underpin the SFB's Salmon Conservation Policy for 2003, which aims to protect spring salmon throuthout the season.
I once caught a fish which I carefully unhooked and was holding in the water till it got its breath back when I suddenlt realised it still had a fly in its mouth. It obviously had broken someone else, it must have had a fly in each side of its mouth.
Hi W. G.
I am pleased to hear that the Spey catches are up on last years catch as I beleive last Spring was pretty good as well before the dreaded drought arrived in early May!!. The 90% catch and release rate is really good for a river of its size,I take it the other 10% at Kinnermony and association were all bleeding badly!!,although I understand that the 1st fish off the Aberlour association goes to the local hospital.what is the policy at Kinnermony? is it anything goes or is it that the catches are that good that the beat has had so many fish that the fish killed have all been second fish!!
Its nice to hear that Tulchan D beat has had fish as they have had a lean few years up there,I take it Robert wont be welcoming his guest back with open arms!!The old school attitudes must change,this is acceptable if it is a youngsters 1st fish (ghillies discretion applied).
I am still off the opinion that the re capture rate of spring fish adds to the figures and it is a pity that the tagging scheme is still not being used.but who cares as long as there are fish in the river to re capture anglers will return!!:)
Re: Hi W. G.
I understand that the first fish goes to the old folks home but the second?
I totally agree that attitudes have to change I would change the Spey board rules that everything goes back same as the Dee and that bleeding fish are handed in the estate, it is amazing how the numbers of bleeders stopped on the Dee when the estates kept the fish.
Tulchan D have had 6 fish (2 killed), C beat have had 3, B beat have had 2 and A beat are still blank (Up until Friday). Overall I think the catches on most of the Spring rivers in the North-east are well up on last year. Hopefully this is an upward trend.
Hi W.G.
I beleive that you are a member of the board,what action will they take against non compliance?I dont think that total catch and release is the answer,as some anglers might like to take 1 fish home with them after spending quite a lot of money on their weeks fishing, after all these paying tenants are the lifeblood of the river and the local economy its down to commonsense!
The Speyboards policy is I think pretty good if used correctly,I know the Dee policy is different but I have seen this being abused as well,as long as they never go down the old smoked Salmon for fish returned route again as there will be many more fish recorded.
I think it would be considered a great success if the river as a whole were to record a 75% release of fish for any given season that would take care of the people who for whatever reason would like to retain a fish.I think that more people now are realising the plight of the wild Salmon and are happily returning these fish,how many people do you now see returning fish who would never have considered it 5 years ago? they too must be applauded,its all an education but there must still remain a strong pull for these anglers to come and fish Scottish rivers and
be educated by ghillies and other like minded anglers.The last thing we need to be constantly reminded off is the terrible fog at Murmansk Airport and those dammned choppers!and yes I do know they have catch and release as well,just as well as the helicopters would not get off the ground with some of those catches.
Thats pretty promising!! I shouldnt think it will be too long before J.A. gets his 1st on A beat, heard anything above Castle Grant or association,what about the Dee above Banchory?
I'm definately not a member of the Spey board, if I was I would have to be a bit more circumspect with my opinions about certain beats and their appalling record on catch and release. I am unsure what action the board can take as it is only a recomendation and if beats wish to abuse the recomendation there is little they can do.
I fished Cairnton on the Dee and they still offer rewards for returning fish, whisky or smoked salmon I believe but as I failed to catch a springer I never found out.
I cannot understand this compulsion some anglers have to take a fish home. I have seen some awful things killed at the backend for smoking, they would be better smoking some fish flavoured cotton wool.
In my opinion, if these fish killers decide not to return to the Spey the Spey will be a better place without them.
I hear that the Strathspey Association have had a few fish but have not heard about Castle Grant.
Hi W.G.
That clears that one up about the board then!!
I think your cotton wool dark smokers was a good point,thats when I think your thoughts on the Dee rules should kick in,total catch and release after 1st August no exceptions!!
Regardless what walk of life you are in there will always be the greed factor,how many times have you heard the stories on the riverbank? Its just a fact of life!!
You would be a good candidate for the Spey Fishing Hotline!!
Just ask the tennant -Are you going to keep any fish then?
If the answer is yes,you could tell him dont bother coming then and fish their beat
Good to hear some encouraging news from the old country.
What's happening at Tulcan these days? I was lucky enough to spend a few days there back in the early 90s but I heard it had changed hands. It would be nice to stay there again one day.
Castle Grant have had a few fish. The Grantown association had 3 fish two weeks ago as had the Abernethy association. Havent heard how they did last week. The Dee is fishing well with fish caught as far upstream as just above Ballater, although as usual for this time of year the majority have been from Aboyne down.
Tulchan belongs to the Litchfields, I believe they have owned it for many years. By the way I see we share the same birthday.
Hi Graham
Thanks for the info
Thats pretty encouraging to see the fish spread throughout
both River systems,this certainly bodes well for the rest of the season,given the right conditions.
Would I be right in saying that Tulchan changed hands in 1995 when the Litchfields bought it from the Panchaud family?
I was speaking to a friend today who was telling me that the Tweed has got off to a cracking start!he had 3 springers in 1 day!
while other guests had 4 more on the same day!!All fish were returned no bleeders!!
By the way happy birthday
I'm almost sure the Litchfields bought Tulchan before 1995; I think late '80's would be nearer the mark. Gerald Panchaud (and his son Paul) fished with us in Norway in, I think, 1982. There was a well-founded rumour that anyone fishing Tulchan in subsequent years might have seen a photograph in the huts of Gerald standing behind an impressive array of fish. The truth, though, was that he didn't catch them all himself, but that didn't deter him from posing for the 'hero shot'! He had quite a 'hand' of sporting property; I believe he owned Tulchan, Amhuinnsuidhe and Mar Lodge simultaneously.
Springers do seem to have been better this year. The Fishtweed website reported 157 last week, including 26 for both Lower Floors and Sprouston - the latter is just a 2 rod beat, incidentally - against a 5 year average for the whole month of 30 for each beat. Equivalent sites for Dee and Tay also seen to indicate good numbers compared to the 5 year average. One or two encouraging noises coming from Ireland, too, I think.
One or two encouraging noises coming from Ireland, too, I think.
Certainly Currane is looking good ,they have had their largest fish for some ten years at 24lbs and some boats coming in with two fish ,first seatrout are in as well with the first specimen fish coming to the fly .
Gardner / Andy
Hi Guys
Thats cracking news from the Tweed, Currane and the other Scottish Rivers!!This backs up what I have been hearing also.
That 24 pounder from Ireland must have been a specimen fish.
I am still not too sure about that date for the sale of Tulchan!!as I think that I fished it the year it was sold
I wonder if W.G. would know this one?

I finally tried out GnuCash (1.6.6, from Debian Woody) today and I must say I think it is very nice. But for the life of me I cannot get foreign currency transactions to work.
If I can do transactions in both Canadian and U.S. currency it would be a lifesaver. Up until now I've been doing my U.S. transactions in Quicken for Windoze and my Canadian transactions in a spreadsheet.
We live in the U.S., but my wife is Canadian and we also have a Canadian checking account and some Canadian bills.
I've tried without success to enter the following two transactions:
- I wired USD$785 from my U.S. bank to my Canadian bank. When it arrived it was credited to my Canadian account with an exchange rate of 1.5345
- I withdrew USD$40 in cash from a U.S. ATM machine from my Canadian bank. In their web banking, the Canadian bank said they gave me an exchange rate of 1.584.
I've pored over the instructions in the GnuCash manual many times, but for the life of me I cannot get it to come out right. Always there is some account that is off, sometimes by hundreds of dollars.
I hate Quicken, I really do. I'd like to delete it from my Windoze partition and use PGP to cryptographically scramble the freespace on my drive, then burn the CD.
But before I do, I need to figure out GnuCash. I've posted to a couple mailing lists, but no one has responded so far. Is there a more detailed explanation than the manual anywhere to be found?

Ammonium hydroxide is a colorless liquid chemical solution that forms when ammonia dissolves in water. This article discusses poisoning due to ammonium hydroxide.
This is for information only and not for use in the treatment or management of an actual poison exposure. If you have an exposure, you should call your local emergency number (such as 911) or a local poison control center at 1-800-222-1222.
Aqueous - ammonia
Ammonium hydroxide
Ammonium hydroxide is found in many industrial products and cleaners such as flooring strippers, brick cleaners, and cements.
Ammonium hydroxide can also release ammonia gas into the air.
Ammonia alone (not ammonium hydroxide) can be found in many household items such as detergents, stain removers, bleaches, and dyes. The symptoms and treatment for ammonia exposure are similar to those for ammonium hydroxide.
Note: This list may not be all inclusive.
Do NOT make the person throw up.
If ammonium hydroxide is on the skin or in the eyes, flush with lots of water for at least 15 minutes.
If the person swallowed ammonium hydroxide, immediately give milk or water. Fruit juices may also be given. DO NOT give water, juice, or milk if the patient is having symptoms (such as vomiting, convulsions, or a decreased level of alertness) that make it hard to swallow.
If the person breathed in fumes, immediately move the patient to fresh air.
Determine the following information:
In the United States, call 1-800-222-1222 to speak with a local poison control center. This hotline number will let you talk to experts in poisoning. They will give you further instructions.
This is a free and confidential service. You should call if you have any questions about poisoning or poison prevention. It does NOT need to be an emergency. You can call for any reason, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Take the container with you to the hospital, if possible.
See: Poison control center - emergency number
The health care provider will measure and monitor the patient's vital signs, including temperature, pulse, breathing rate, and blood pressure.
The patient may receive:
Some patients may be admitted to the hospital.
Survival past 48 hours usually indicates recovery will occur. If a chemical burn occurred in the eye, permanent blindness will probably result.
How well a patient does depends on the strength of the chemical and how fast the poison was diluted and neutralized. Extensive damage to the mouth, throat, eyes, lungs, esophagus, nose, and stomach are possible.
The ultimate outcome depends on the extent of this damage. Damage continues to occur to the esophagus and stomach for several weeks after the poison was swallowed, and death may occur as long as a month later.

however you should connect the ground side of the 12v supply direct to the junction of the mosfet source terminal and 1000uF capacitor, instead of via the mcu ground pins as you appear to be doing.
I'm using an old computer supply with both 12 and 5 volts with a common ground.
you've now broken the connection between mosfet source and Arduino ground
but just curious as to what could be causing this.
This is after an hour of wondering why the contrast didn't adjust at all only to find out the pin2 and pin 3 are swapped on my particular HD44780 compatible LCD (JHD204A - made in China).
now I find that contrast does nothing at all if I wire everything up as correct.
You probably burned out the potentiometer when it was wired incorrectly.

To save one night of hotel, my company granted me only one day in 3GSM Barcelona : departure the morning from Paris, return in the evening. With a sized handicap : a strike of the Paris' Air Controllers.
Obviously : a late meeting in Barcelona. Direct impact : modification of the initial plan : rent a car for Girona Airport (100 km from Barcelona) in the evening, hotel at Girona central town for the night, takeoff the next day at noon for Beauvais Airport (70 km from Paris), another car rent to return to the company. Added a 3 hours delay - thanks to RyanAir plane blocked by fog in Germany (official statment ...).
Conclusion: to avoid a Hotel (my initial request), my company paid a Hotel, two rented cars and a working day passed visiting the town of Girona :-(
Next time, I will get my two days in Barcelona ...

That is not expensive to go to work, that pays the gasoline
The problem number one many recruiters encounter is how to make sign the best candidate. It is an established fact : "the candidate with huge potential" is on the way to become a protected species.
The error made by many recruiters in this situation consists in simply treating these "exceptional candidates" like "lambda" individuals. But the best candidate feels, thinks, acts and makes their decisions differently than others people. Consequently, if you want to make them sign for your proposal, you must learn how to think like them.
In my point of view, here the list of the 10 key points the best candidate will check to consider your offers :
1- The good fit between the job and the interests of the candidate
It is without any doubt the key factor of a successful recruitment! The job you have to propose to the candidate must fit with its interests and its personal motivations. it is not a question to know if your candidate "is well motivated" but rather of knowing "by what" it is really motivated.
2 - A "job stretch"
The "job stretch", it is the difference between the position which occupies today your candidate and the position which you are proposing to him.
An exceptional candidate will not sign to make the same thing it currently makes with the only reason that you propose to him to do it "on your premise", except if you are Google…
Thus insist on the gap that you are able to create between the current situation of the candidate and what you propose to him : new technologies to work with, bigger team, more ambitious or strategic projects…
3 - Evolution
To remain motivated in the long term, everyone needs to know that he will evolve, the best even more than the others! When you present the position to your best candidates, do not forget to underline the evolution in the medium and long term.
4 - Making a true difference
The best candidate does not want only a job, he has often in heart to write part of the History (with a big H)! Many candidates with exceptional profiles are able to lower their claims if they have conviction that they will be able to have a role really impacting within your company.
5 - Quality of the Chief
This factor is often the first which determine the decision of best candidate to accept an offer.
The best knows that contacts with the best will help him at the same time for personal and professional growth.
If the Chief has real qualities of leadership, put them ahead as a true advantage. Moreover, for more chances of success, it is often judicious to imply this last in the process of recruitment.
6 - Quality of the Team
The staff is the place in which are tied personal and professional affinities.
7 - Vision of the Company
The companies which know where they go and which have real ambitions are those which attract all the favours of the most determined individuals.
Ensure you to have perfect description of the mission and the vision of your company. And do not forget, a vision, it is made to sell, inspire, gather and to make dream, then put the package!
8 - Culture of company
All that is original in your manner of doing the work, all that indicates what is usually done by your most talented collaborators, all that makes your company a little special place even straightforwardly shifted… all that must absolutely be proposed at the time of the presentation of your company.
9 - Balance between Professional and Private life
More and more high potentials do not agree any more to ruin their health, nor the quality of their family life or social in exchange of a remuneration at the end of the month.
If you implemented a program of "Work/Life Balance", make the push on these arguments! Otherwise, think about this kind of initiatives…
10 - Package of remuneration
If you are not sufficiently supporting the 9 preceding points, remuneration package will not be enough to attract the best candidate.
On the other hand, if you are able to propose a truly gravitational offer on at least 5 to 7 of the 9 points evoked above, you have no need to overpay your collaborators.
One of my most productive days was throwing away 1000
lines of code.

This collection first appeared in early 2012 under the title Cygnus Papilio in reference to the Latin for 'butterfly swan' - an imaginary carnation that represents the beauty found in nature combined with fantasy. The work is produced by a complex process of fusing hand-drawn and vintage imagery into 'assemblage' pieces. Some of the pieces contain over a thousand components painstakingly collected from vintage publications - many of which are well over 500 years old. These images are processed into a digital format, and then collated meticulously into the final artwork, each piece taking hundreds of hours to complete.

What did those of you who attended Mike Moore's workshop in Oakdale, CA, on the Dec 8 - 9 weekend have to report? How'd it go?
What did those of you who attended Mike Moore's workshop in Oakdale, CA, on the Dec 8 - 9 weekend have to report? How'd it go?
As a newbie to HT/FT, I attended Michael's workshop and I have to say it was awesome! We have only been training since August, but Michael and Lynn made us feel totally welcome and ran marks for my dog that he would be successful in. We had a few issues that Michael helped with and gave lots of great advice. I am thrilled to have gone and met all the great people there. We ran 15 marks in 2 days, someone said one mark was 140 yds, which I know is nothing for you FT's but HUGE for my dude. There were triples and blinds and flyers...lots of fun! It definitely was more of a cerebral workshop.
You are right - cerebral is a good description! I went without a dog and learned a TON as well. Many that ran dogs were FT's, and the rest fairly experience HT's, including people who judge in both venues.
Michael's workshop and many like this serve as a BIG reminder of where all successes and failures in the running of the dog begins on the mat, at the line. Many of us were saying: "I knew/know that", but also became MORE AWARE that we were not maintaining a very high standard for our dog's, from exiting the vehicle, to the send to retrieve.
In many HT, mats are used mostly to help with traction in muddy conditions, since judges 'generally' don't want that clearly defined of an area of the line. In training and at a FT, Michael showed us how a mat (2'X3') can be used as a 'positioning' guide for lining the dogs and in creeping issues. I mean, which weed or pebble was it that the dog started at?
If it's not so obvious to dog or handler, it gets ignored by both.
Michael was being very picky about what you need to do at the line to help your dog and then told you what you did or didn't do to make your dog go where you (in most cases) did not want it to. It was all presented in a light hearted way.
Michael was very animated in his presentation, even getting on hands and knees to mimic what the dogs were doing, usually because of (how shall I say) too much or too little influence on the part of the handler. And at times he did a little "handler dance" exaggeration of the the handler moves that are too much influence or unnecessary.
He set up marks and blinds to challenge the handler, to make them think. And it definitely made THE DOGS think. The line was moved up or adjusted if the set-up was beyond the dog's experience.
It was a great weekend!

Im New to the sport and found it to be quite informative. I am Learning alot of things in training but was glad to see somethings i am doing wrong and work on those things. My dog Micah is a derby dog and he was given some some difficult marks with one very close flyer which he has not had much experience on and he remained steady.
Had to be on the road 20 hours to attend but it was well worth the drive. I have no doubt that I will be a better handler and a better team player after attending Michael seminar. I could spend hours writing down all that I learned but if you people reading this really want to know, you will just have to attend Michaels next seminar or wait until the DVD comes out. Thanks again Michael and Lynn, I had a great time.

Well we all know Michael Moore has the knowledge and ability to win a field trial, but does he have the knowledge and ability to teach? The answer would be yes he does! Mr. Moore did a wonderful job communicating the importance of winnning and that six foot circle around you the dog and the mat. The setups were technical enough to get the desired results, and as described above Mr. Moore was very clear and animated in his teaching techniques. I believe he is naming his next pup "Fido"! We also learned a new "line" dance that he attempted to call the "Kevorkian". The handlers and observers had great comments and questions. Lynn and her workers did a wonderful job putting it all together and making the fog go away on Sunday! I would have to say this is one of the most informative influential seminars I have attended to date. If you get an opportunity to attend, do not hesitate. It will be well worth your while no matter what level you are currently participating. Great job Michael and Lynn!!

I really enjoyed Michael Moore's handler seminar this past weekend. There was great discussion, practice, critiques and more follow-up discussion. Michael focused on "game day" preparation for the handler and the dog. He reviewed mental preparation including maintaining a positive attitude uner pressure, visualization, and test strtegy as well as the importance of effective body language and verbal communication with you dog on the mat/line. He uses and 80/20 rule when handling: 80% body language and 20% verbal communication. Through anecdotal stories and practical real time examples from participants, Michael illustrated/demonstrated how to be more effective and efficient in handling a dog. Participating handlers worked on coming to the line and lining up for both marks and blinds. I got a lot of take away tips for working more successfully with my dog. The seminar was conducted in a relaxed manner with plenty of humor. Belly laughs were had by all. Also, kudos to Lynn Moore, the set-up crew and the Gunners for a great job of keeping things moving.

Argo is an international program that calls for the deployment of 3,000 free drifting profiling floats, distributed over the global oceans, which will measure the temperature and salinity in the upper 2,000 m of the ocean providing 100,000 T/S profiles and reference velocity measurements per year.
This allows continuous monitoring of the state of the ocean, with all data being made publicly available within hours after collection, for scientific use and assimilation into weather forecasting and climate prediction models
AOML responsibilities in the Argo program are as follows:
- Hosting the US Argo Data Acquisition Center
- Providing platforms and deploying the US Argo Atlantic floats
- Maintaining the South Atlantic Argo Regional Cente
Official versions of Argo data lie on the Global Data Centers (GODAE and IFREMER) and the Argo Information Centre is the official site for information and support about the Argo program.

Wow! First, let me say that NO convention is like SDCC. I look forward to it every year and hope it stays in San Diego, especially if the city decided to expand the convention to meet the monstrous demand.
That said:
Los Angeles has no conventions? Really? Granted we don't have SDCC and none equal its scope, but we have a variety of shows every year. The Los Angeles Science Fiction and Comic Book convention has run monthly for decades, first at the old Ambassador Hotel (which I'm old enough to have attended) and now at the Shrine Auditorium. The E3 is held here each year. Bot Con is here just about every other year (how many of those have been in San Diego, Tycho ?). The best of all the Star Wars Celebrations, IV, was here (anything in San Diego?). Wizard World has shows here on annual basis, as does the Disney D23. And there are probably shows I've neglected mentioning.
Wonder Con is owned and operated by Comic Con International. It is usually held in San Francisco, but due to renovations at its usual facility, the show was moved down to Anaheim. I suspect, purely speculation on my part, that CCI is going to gauge the viability of this venue for potentially staging their annual INTERNATIONAL comic con there. From what I understand, the City of San Diego and CCI are butting heads a bit about the expansion of their convention center. CCI might be holding the show in Anaheim just to leverage their position a bit about moving the show elsewhere. Who knows for sure, but I annually plan my summer around a July weekend in San Diego.
I truly hope that Comic Con stays in San Diego, that great suburb of Los Angeles.

Thread: How to keep a floater in place?
How to keep a floater in place?
I finally found some Amazon Frogbit at one of the LFS. I thought I would be able to keep it on the opposite side of the tank from my HOB filter. The water over there is very calm so I gave it a try. No luck, within a couple minutes the plants were all floating towards the filter.
I took one the the side brackets from my 10 gallon tan divider and tied it to my hood so that it breaks up the surface of my water. For right now it is working, but I know when I have to do my water change in a couple days I will have round them back up and move them back to the other side of the tank.
I would cut some plastic mesh and lower my barrier 3 inches or so to keep them in place when I do water changes. The other think I can think of is find something that will float that I can somehow attach to the sides of the tank with will go down with the level of the water. Like a piece of styrofoam, take a wedge out of each end and attach some type of bracket to each side. Not sure if that make sense. I may try to draw something up and attach it.
How do you guys do it? I am looking for any and all ideas.
Here is a diagram of what I am thinking..


text: When I first heard of this anime, I was skeptical of how a boring game of "Go" could have created 75 episodes. Shortly after 4 episodes, I was addicted to seeing how the protagonist would grow in his conquest to become a professional "Go" player. The story was well executed each showing crucial lessons learned and hardship that goes into the life dedicated "Go" players must overcome. The emotional roller coasters that the characters go through in order to move up to the professional world of "Go" is heart wrenching and captivating. Not only is the story... See full review


text: I picked up my silver R2-D2 at the Blvd TRU this morning... it appeared that they had plenty of them in cases behind the service counter. I was also able to find enough figures that I hadn't bought yet (to add up to just over 20 bucks), but there weren't too many to choose from. Hopefully other people won't be forced to buy too many duplicates.

text: This is great news!! Now if they would put a minimum on short marks,Say- nothing shorter than 50 yds. It is not the distance of the mark, it is all about placement. You can have a qualifying with 100 yard marks and get answers if you put the marks in the right place. I get frustrated when you go to a master test and don't see 1 mark over 50 yds. Our Retrievers these days are not made to do 25 yd retrieves.

That's actually doable if done right. You'd have gold helmet, gold jersey, white pants. It would mirror the old baseball uniform in that regard.
The problem is that the few times we tried it, we wore jerseys without stripes and really awkward number shadows. If the jersey looked like a continuation of the helmet (same striping on shoulders) you'd be in business.
We wore purple jerseys
