It was time to apply the Brake.
For the past 41 years, Ohio high school wrestling fans have enjoyed pouring through the annual wrestling forecast written by Brian Brakeman — affectionately known as The Brakeman Report. The longtime prognosticator has decided to end publication of the beloved read.
"It was absolutely a tough decision … I'm feeling conflicted at this moment," Brakeman said Thursday night. "It was a labor of love, I certainly didn't make any money off it. I have eight grandchildren and they are spread out all over the world — Switzerland, Florida. I felt maybe it was time to do other things."
The report — numbering 90-100 pages in recent years — did an extensive analysis of every weight class in all three divisions throughout the state. It gave breakdowns of how each district performed and showed Brakeman's accuracy from the past year.
"It started because I was trying to provide a service," Brakeman said. "Not a lot of media was covering the sport and I wanted to give everyone an idea of who might make it to the state tournament and who might win. Now you can go on the internet and find several places where they have rankings and ratings.
"It just got to the point where I didn't think I added a lot of value to it."
That might take some convincing to area wrestling fans. Many expressed disbelief and disappointment when the news of Brakeman's decision was placed on Facebook and Twitter several nights ago.
"I don't know if I should be congratulated or castigated for (the report)," Brakeman said. "It's been a fairly liberating experience. I've never been to a Super 32 or a Bill Dies (tournament), or much of anything in January. So it's been kind of a blessing.
"I just hope I was able to provide some small boost to wrestling and to the wrestlers."
Ready to dual
Four Lorain County teams advanced to the regional semifinals of the inaugural state wrestling team tournament Wednesday night.
In the Division I, Region 2-A bracket, No. 3 seed Elyria advanced with a 55-16 win over Lorain and No. 4 Amherst advanced with a 35-33 win over Brunswick. The Pioneers are scheduled to face No. 2 Parma, while the Comets face No. 1 Brecksville at 6 p.m. Wednesday. The dual meets will take place side by side at Brecksville High, and the winners of each meet will face off in the Region 2-A final. The winner of that match will meet the Region 2-B winner for the chance to advance to the state semifinals.
It's a similar situation in the Division III, Region 19-A bracket, where No. 2 Clearview advanced with a 48-21 win over Columbia, and No. 5 Keystone advanced with a 44-21 win over Lutheran West. The Clippers face No. 6 Independence, while the Wildcats face top-ranked Beachwood at 6 p.m. Wednesday at Beachwood High.
More rankings
Many Lorain County wrestlers landed on the state rankings on Jakeswrestling.com. The website uses an RPI system — ratings percentage index — based on a mathematical formula. A wrestler had to have wrestled one match this season and is ranked at the lowest weight at which he has competed.
Here is a breakdown of local wrestlers who cracked the top 20 in their weight class:
DIVISION I — 106: Michael Falencki, Amherst, T-No. 18. 113: Armando Torres, Elyria, No. 3; Evan Collier, North Ridgeville, T-No. 15. 120: Ben Darmstadt, Elyria, T-No. 20. 126: Tommy Zeigler, St. Ignatius/North Ridgeville, No. 2. 132: Brandon Egnor, Elyria, No. 2. 138: Alex Funderburg, Amherst, No. 12. 145: Bryce Williams, Amherst, No. 6; Eli Garcia, Lorain, No. 9. 152: Austin Williams, Amherst, No. 19. 160: None. 170: Taylor Workman, Elyria, T-No. 17. 182: Hamza Kirresh, Avon, No. 11. 195: None. 220: None. 285: None. TEAM RANKINGS: Elyria (No. 12); Amherst (No. 51); Lorain (No. 66); North Ridgeville (No. 86); Avon (No. 94); Avon Lake (No. 131).

"it just didn't stand a chance..."
should have had a different Narrator, and the story lines were pretty weak. I've never heard the Amish dialect slaughtered so horribly. I had to grit my teeth to get through it.
No, I love Amish stories, although usually less about fluff and romance and more about their lives. I've read and listened to many of them, but this one was beyond terrible.
Her voice is not bad, although, men's voices were pretty bad. But, well, it was kind of like listening to a kindergarten teacher read her class to sleep for naptime.
a lot of eye rolling.
Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeease never let her narrate another Amish book. Ever.

|The red line on the photo above is Gambit, so Cro-Magnon follows a line halfway between Gambit and the big dihedral of Mountaineer's.

|Great route but David is not kidding about the loose rock up there. I too clipped the bolt on Throne just below the anchor because I found the slab moves to be pretty tricky and well above my last piece (a small nut). I found good gear placements often occupied the good holds, mostly nuts and small cams. I also used the edge of S. Jam Crack at times for my right hand and foot and got a good rest. If going to the top it's probably better to climb past the anchor and belay a the next ledge wih a large pine tree.

|The second pitch is good with fun moves beginning with the roof. Green alien at the crux. Make a good placement where the crack ends(blue alien) and run it out to the bolt, or as I did, placed an ify yellow alien in a very hollow flake. The first pitch is funky.

Good adventure climbing, Patrik lead the funky first pitch, circuitous, wandering up, right and up, and right and up. Seems like pro is where you need it if you are creative. Look out for some wasps in a thin crack!
Second pitch, Good climbing if you are solid at the grade, but I would not recommend this for someone's first 5.10 lead! Expect some moderate run outs and having to work on some of the pro. Would be a banner pitch if the rock was truly solid and placements a bit more bomber. It might protect a bit better with differently shaped small passive gear than the nuts I had. There are some creaky and loose flakes and a sizable dinner plate flake that I avoided entirely that seems ready to peel off. Traversed left to the "The Throne" top bolt, then past the anchor, left into the corner and up to the big ledge/tree belay to continue up Ginseng Junkie rather than belaying at the bolt/knife blade anchor on The Throne.
By Ben Walburn

Did this today with Teo Mavis. I agree with mountainhick...you want to be solid at the grade on this pitch.
We linked this into Ginseng Junkie, and it made for a fantastic .10a link-up, although Ginseng Junkie has a lot of loose rock, and if any of it pulled, it would potentially drop into parties on Gambit. That being said, it is a fun, rope stretching pitch (Ginseng) to the top.

April 13, 2009 photo, Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. Two wolves standing over 2 dead sheep, previously killed by these same wolves in Baker County, Oregon
I have not been shy about the stupidity of shooting wolves on National Forest lands in order to protect sheep grazing allotments on those lands. It is stupid, stupid, stupid.
Sheep on National Forest land costs U.S. taxpayers more money than they bring in, and if there is one place in the world where wolves should be allowed to run free, it's in our National Forests, on BLM lands, and in our National Parks.
That said, there is a place to shoot wolves, and that is when they venture on to private property and begin a campaign of systematic stock predation.
I have always said so, and I say it again now.
Oregon has had wolves for over a decade, and there has never been any stock lost -- until now.
Recently a small contingent of wolves in Baker County, Oregon has discovered that sheep are nothing more than lamb chops on the hoof. In less than two weeks, 23 sheep have been killed on a single ranch.
Proper response: a bullet to the brain of the offending wolves.
No debate, not question, no protest.
Wolves have their place and their rights, and so too do stock owners. Both sides need to have a place where they can live in peace.
The rules of engagement are not hard to discern: Get sheep out of public lands and get wolves out of private lands when they threaten ranching stock.

Even though the man already has two Nike Basketball signatures with a third on the way, there's no denying the above pictured shoe's resemblance to Kobe Bryant's latest. The Black Mamba proved that Zoom Kobes IV, V and VI all offer increasingly superb performance in a low-cut package, and now the ZK5's basic shape comes up again on the new Nike Zoom Speed Low II. The second Zoom Speed follows up on the early 2010 original, setting a course that would appear to place the Zoom Speed Low III silhoutte to be something of a sequel to the Zoom Kobe VI. That's a whole year off, though, and the Zoom Speed Low II just became available so check out more shots after the jump and look for these soon at US retailers; Japan's EST Premium just got theirs and we also found a few on eBay.

[UPDATE] Unconfirmed reports say the troubled publisher's staff has been laid off and its office has been shuttered; anonymous office occupant says the rumors are "not true."
In mid-April, Interplay announced its 2003 financial numbers. While the company's income was lackluster, CEO Herve Caen gave an optimistic if guarded outlook for 2004, promising a new Kingpin game and the possible resurrection of Fallout 3. However, Interplay also filed papers with the SEC that showed it was three months behind in its rent and was facing eviction from its Irvine, California, headquarters. Two weeks ago, its official site, www.interplay.com, went offline. However, its still-functioning e-mail and phone system pointed to the fact that the company was still in existence, even if it wasn't responding to inquiries.
Today, however, unconfirmed reports began to surface that the publisher was indeed shutting down. Several stock-related and Interplay-game-related sites claimed to have received reports from Interplay employees that they were told by the company's human resources department to file for unemployment insurance. According to some sites, staffers were also told to collect their belongings by 5:00pm PDT on Tuesday because the property managers were preparing to lock all Interplay employees out of their Irvine offices. Other reports said the offices would be closed at 5:00pm Friday, and movers had already taken several major items of furniture and game memorabilia from the offices.

yes, that's how I am working. I don't like the stars rating, I only use 1-3 color tags. The sessions always open in the last saved state... either way name or color tag. Even if I open a session sorted by color tag then switch to sort by name and then switch to a session that was stored as sorted by color tag it will open sorted by color tag.I'm not quite sure about my Macbook but 100% about my Mac pro.
I am browsing around folders in the same session
I see alot of major problems were addressed in V5, basically a really nice V4.9
I was curious so i completely uninstalled V5, reinstalled and tried it again. Same thing. I logged in to my blank test user account, ran V5 same thing. Computer is less than a week old. I'm not talking about opening a session and looking for it to be sorted the same way, I am browsing around folders in the same session, like in shot1 - edit by colortag, sort by colortag, go to shot2, then go back to shot1 - its sorted by name. baffled as to why it would resort everytime you opened a folder inside the same session. V3 would keep your folder settings where they were until you changed them.
Not happening to me. Remembers the sort order moving between folders, and when quitting and restarting. Doesn't reset to names.
WEB CONTACT sheets are blurry and the jpegs porduced or all out of focus...A Bug that should be fixed hopefully in next update as it is NOT good!!!Anybody else notice this??Snook
Anybody else notice the Web Contact sheet images being blurry or am I the only one.. Sure would be nice to know It is not just me..ThanksSnook
Just checked. Look fine to me

Last Thursday, the Ministry of Industry, Energy and Tourism – through the Spanish Tourism Institute (Turespaña) – together with ICEX España Exportación e Inversiones (from the Government's Ministry of Economic Affairs and Competition) and in collaboration with the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport and the Cervantes Institute, presented the new edu-tourism portal – www.studyinspain.info.
The portal will be used as a means to access the various quality education options that exist in Spain. It will include all the information and services needed by anyone interested in travelling to Spain for the purpose of undertaking any form of study.
The portal is the result of institutional collaboration between representatives of regional tourism promotional organisations and members of business associations, and therefore reflects a joint effort from both the public and private sectors.
The new digital platform is aimed at promoting edu-tourism in Spain and the internationalisation of education services in the country. Furthermore, it aims to attract potential students from abroad by highlighting the attractive features of Spain as a tourist destination.
Thanks to input from the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport's Foundation, Universidad.es, which promotes the internationalisation of Spanish universities, it will also provide useful information for foreign students, such as whether or not they need a visa to stay in Spain, details on registration and enrolment processes, fees, official recognition of qualifications, etc.
Among other services, the offer from the new portal includes those universities with graduate and post-graduate studies; the Spanish Language Schools accredited by the Cervantes Institute; and summer courses, as well as those Business Schools in Spain offering post-graduate courses.
The portal will have its own commercial operation plan enabling interested companies and entities to increase their visibility on the website through both advertising and sponsorship activities, and will make it easier for interested education centres to attract new foreign students through a tailored information request system. It is thus intended to create a platform providing support to the international commercialisation of edu-tourism that is financially self-sufficient.
Edu-tourism has an important role to play in Spain. Those students spending lengthy periods in the country, during which time they interact and create emotional ties to the destination, tend to demonstrate a high degree of loyalty. Their experience in Spain converts them into important consumer motivators and, in short, "ambassadors" of Spain.
950,000 foreign students came to Spain in 2012 in search of the educational opportunities offered in the country, which was an increase of 25% over the previous year. In terms of the volume of expenditure generated by this segment of the tourist market, they spent almost 2.03 billion euros last year (up 28% on 2011). The main source markets in terms of the number of arriving students were France, Italy, the United States and Germany.
The close relations with the socio-cultural environment of the destination generated among these tourists encourages repeat visits in the future, whether to consolidate their knowledge, to visit friends or to share their previous tourism experiences with others.

FOXBORO, Mass. — The Patriots held a very low-maintenance walkthrough Wednesday afternoon before departing for Tampa. A large portion of them wore street clothes, and at least a dozen were in sandals during the 45-minute session.
Defensive lineman Albert Haynesworth, left tackle Matt Light, linebacker Brandon Spikes, linebacker Jermaine Cunningham, wide receiver Julian Edelman, wide receiver Taylor Price, wide receiver Brandon Tate, cornerback Ras-I Dowling, running back Shane Vereen, running back Kevin Faulk, safety James Sanders, offensive lineman Ryan Wendell, defensive lineman Shaun Ellis, defensive lineman Mike Wright, defensive lineman Ron Brace and defensive lineman Brandon Deaderick were among the players who weren't spotted at the walkthrough.
It wasn't possible to take an exact attendance count because players weren't in jerseys. There were other players who were presumed to be missing, but the aforementioned list included the biggest names.
It's a strong indication that players who were absent from the walkthrough will not play Thursday night against the Buccaneers. Each player on the list above had been dealing with some type of injury that had kept them from practicing for at least the prior two sessions.

Rally Energy drilled three new Egyptian oil wells in 3Q 2003
Rally Energy Corporation made significant progress in Egypt in the third quarter of 2003. Three new wells were drilled in the Ras Issaran oilfield. The first well encountered a thick column of Dolomite oil pay, which exhibited excellent reservoir characteristics, stated a press release.
Production from this well has now stabilized at about 1,000 barrels per day (bpd). Completion work continues on the second and third wells to achieve co-mingled Dolomite and Gharandal zone production.
In October and November, Rally Energy re-completed two shut-in wells in the Zeit sand, a previously untested formation which overlies a large portion of the Issaran oilfield. Initial oil production from the first well was over 100 bpd and appears to have stabilized in the 50 bpd range. Initial oil production from the second well has exceeded 100 bpd.
Average production for the nine months ending September 30, 2003 was 962 bpd. Production in the third quarter of 2003 averaged 865 bpd and increased to 1,368 bpd in October. Current production is in excess of 1,900 bpd.
Gross Revenue for the nine months ending September 30, 2003 was $7.2 million, resulting in Cash Flow from Operations of $685,000.
Rally Energy is poised to continue development of the Issaran oilfield. The immediate goal of the Corporation is to methodically build production in Egypt. The Zeit sand potential is expected to be exploited through an extensive low cost development program to run concurrently with the deeper exploration program. — (menareport.com)

On Friday, I had an interesting discussion with the CEO and executive team of an international distribution sector company about innovation management in the enterprise. I started with describing the insights of the IBM CIO study, the largest known sample of face-to-face conversations with 2,598 CIOs to understand their goals and challenges. The study demonstrated that CIOs spend an impressive 55% of their time on activities that SPUR INNOVATION and help the business. One of IBM's former CIOs liked to say that CIO stands for Chief INNOVATION Officer – I always liked when he said that.
I usually describe the innovation management life-cycle as consisting of four phases: 1) you come up with an idea, 2) have to get "buy-in" and mobilize others around it, 3) pilot and incubate it, and 4) implement and deploy. In a traditional top-down idea management model, management drives the selection process. Open innovation follows the same basic phases as the traditional top-down-decision driven model, except the community selects ideas through rating, commenting on them or actually using the pilots. The community also helps to incubate the pilot through a feedback loop.
In IBM, we piloted and implemented many interesting programs and technologies to manage open innovation, from idea creation to deployment. Two of the most successful and widely used are Jams and the Technology Adoption Program (TAP).
Jams are worldwide, online brainstorming sessions where all participants can share, comment on, rate and follow each other's ideas and discussions. A jam is an event that takes place over a specified period -- usually a few days -- where the entire workforce or a community (e.g. all IT Architects) comes together to shape everything from new business ideas to core values. They are actually…addictive; you can lose sleep over them. I remember last year participating in the IBM Academy of Technology Jam that lasted over 3 days. I thought if I go to sleep, I might miss interesting real-time discussions and not able to catch-up with threads.
If an idea can be implemented as an application, a service, or a widget, it can be piloted on TAP. TAP is a community driven model for introducing and managing access to new technologies and solutions (some are early versions of products or situational applications). It consists of an intranet portal and a shared centrally-managed infrastructure for hosting and promotion of innovation offerings. Innovators share their innovation offerings through TAP with everyone who has access to the intranet to access, use, and provide feedback to innovators.
We held the first Jam session in 2001; the TAP idea was conceived in early 2005. Talking to others who plan to implement tools and programs for open innovation management, makes me realize that we sometimes take it for granted that these open innovation tools exist and have flourished within IBM for many years.
We ended the discussion agreeing that a successful CIO builds a culture of open innovation in her enterprise and that open innovation is an important ingredient of workplaces of the future….except some of us work in those future workplaces now…

When I was at the horse show last weekend, I learned one of the show kid mothers is a PT. I learned this because she was treating another of the mothers using cranio-sacral therapy. I'm not sure what pushed more of my buttons, her treating someone on the fly or using cranio-sacral to do so. This isn't the first time I've said I don't think PTs should freely treat anyone who asks. Yes, that is against our nature but better for the profession.
I've yet to find one article supporting the efficacy of cranio-sacral therapy. I wasn't even sure it was around until I received a mailer for a course. I'm told it falls under manual therapy because it requires the therapist to place hands on the patient and cause changes to occur. The PT at the show couldn't stop telling me how wonderful it was but had no idea how it worked.
She proceeded to prove her point by telling the patient how much better she felt. Naturally she agreed. This was followed a recital of all the ways the woman looked better; less pallor, less facial swelling, rosy glow. To me this screamed placebo effect following by group think. I don't understand how holding someone's wrist improves pallor and swelling. The PT said it, so it must be so.
According to the APTA, we're movement specialists. That is our brand. We treat movement disorders. Telling me it's an effective treatment because everyone there says the patient looks better is meaningless. Of course we wanted her to feel better. Of course we're going to tell her so. PTs are always telling people they are better.
I so wanted to burst her little bubble. I do a literature review about once a year when I receive an application to approve a cranio-sacral course for Texas. I find no supporting evidence. I also deny the application, stating it would be approved when evidence is provided. That is yet to happen.
I'm not denying the effectiveness of placebo therapy. Let's just call it what it is. There's a percentage of our population who will get better no matter what we do. There's another group who will get better because of personal attention. Others never improve no matter what we do. If this therapy is so wonderful, why isn't it more mainstream?
I bit my tongue because we all need to get along and support each other at a show. I even kept quiet when she told me I should take the course. Next time I see her, I'll offer to let her sit in when I teach my course. Then we can compare notes.

For this reason I do enjoy reading your blog, however I do not think I have seen a single post you have written that shed's a positive light toward your opinion of the profession.

Five to Watch
National League Post-Prospects
I've been partial to the phrase prospect fatigue as it applies to players who are on the radar for so long that we start to ding them for being (somewhat) known quantities as opposed to the younger players who let our minds run free, unencumbered by the shackles of previous performance. Well after the prospect fatigue guys come post-prospects. They live in stasis in our brains, some purgatory of youthful but not eligible for a minor league roster spot, yet still not useful enough for a major league keeper spot. Before this turns into the final season of LOST though, we should note that these players tend to be divisive, riding the line between being overvalued thanks to a perceived undervaluing or just straight up undervalued. Here's a look at five in the NL:
Wily Peralta, P, Brewers
Nolan Arenado, 3B, Rockies
Alex Wood, P, Braves
Randall Delgado, P, Diamondbacks
Khris Davis, OF, Brewers

Anyone interested in Krush Davis? The kid's older than your traditional prospect call-up, but he's always hit for power and he's playing in Miller Park. I doubt he produces a 28.9% HR/FB rate again, but if he lives above 20% he could hit 25-30 HRs and as a 4th OF he's mostly upside. That's a great call, really enjoyed reading this, thanks!
Mar 19, 2014 07:15 AM
I'd argue with the description of Davis as a "max-effort swinger". He generates bat speed with long levers and exceptionally quick hands, not the bent back-leg action such a description might imply. Khris Davis has bat control.

Given that the fragment design aesthetic has often embodied subtly, Hiroshi Fujiwara goes against the grain with an upcoming pack inspired by colored leopard prints. Three colorways will drop with varying degrees of brashness including white/gray, brown/yellow and pink/purple.

2-> Planet Oozla - Megacorp Outlet
Swamp Monster
Very Easy
Before you get the Dynamo
This monster will try to crush you under one of his tails. This is his only
attack. Just shoot the crap out of him and you'll be finished with it in no
time. If you want a little challenge, try to kill it with only your wrench...
If you manage to hit it, it could be fun...
3-> Maktar Nebula - Maktar Resort
Gladiator Fighting Arena
When Chainblade swings his swords, jump in any direction,but don't jump in
Chainblade's direction...:p Then, take your Blitz Gun/Cannon or (Heavy) Lancer,
and shoot him until he starts swinging his swords again.
When he starts hovering above the ground and throwing his "chainblades" at
you, jump sideways and you should be fine. Shoot him when he gets back on the
NOTE : If you want to get a skill point, kill him with your wrench only. The
best way to do this is to wait until you have the Omniwrench 12,000 from
the Thugs-4-Less Prison in Aranos, but it's pretty simple even with the regular
Omniwrench 8,000. Just jump when he swings his chainblades and hyper-strike him
Don't use any other weapon than the wrench and you'll get the skill point.
4-> Maktar Nebula - Maktar Resort
B2 Brawler
Gladiator Fighting Arena
When the B2 Brawler arrives, it'll stand almost still and shoot purple things
at you. Jump sideways and do backflips while shooting it with your
Blitz Gun/Cannon until it lies down. Its enormous legs will be spinning around
the arena. Jump (not sideways!) when a leg comes near you, and continue
shooting. It's hard work but it can be done.
NOTE : You'll get a skill point if you manage to destroy the B2 Brawler without
taking any damage. Be extremely careful not to get hit by the spinning legs!
5-> Planet Endako - Megapolis
Thugs-4-Less Leader - Chopper
Fairly Easy
Near Clank's Apartment
The chopper has three basics attacks. Your success on this one depends on your
ability to strafe precisely. One of the numbskull's attacks is to shoot at you
with a machine gun. just jump sideways above the bullets to avoid them.
Another attack he has is to send electric "pillars" at you. When he does that,
run around, avoiding the beams. His final attack is, guess what, rockets.
(What an original boss fight... :) Again, jump sideways to avoid them. Shoot
him with the Blitz Gun/Cannon, Gravity Bomb/Mini-Nuke, (Heavy) Lancer, or
anything else you have. When he hurls rockets at you, try and make them crash
into the blocks around the arena to help you aim at the chopper. Also, be
careful when you jump sideways, you can fall easily...
6-> Planet Siberius - Frozen Base
The Unknown
On top of the train and on the arena at the end of the level
When you get on top of the train, kill the enemies and the Unknown will appear.
He mainly charges up his gun before shooting you, so avoid the laser while
shooting him with any weapon. I suggest the Seeker Gun/HK22 Gun or the
Chopper/Multi-Star. He'll soon get away. Continue running on the cars using
your swingshot, killing enemies until the Unknown comes back. Now he'll send
some laser balls which will cast a fire ring on the floor. Jump in the middle
of the ring to avoid the fire and continue to shoot him. He'll soon vanish
againand the train will stop. Get up the ladder, get some ammunition at the
Megacorp Vendor and get inside the arena.
After the cinematic, the Unknown will use the same two attacks as before, but
will also create MSR V2's to help him, as well as automated turrets. The
turrets can be destroyed by a single wrench hit, and the MSRs are easily
taken care of. Don't mind the MSRs if you can, and the turrets as well
if you're a strafing professional, and take the Unknown out. If you can make
it past the robots and turrets, you'll deal with him easily. If not,
you'll have to destroy them before attacking him, which is very time-consuming,
and you'll be a sitting duck for the Unknown.The Mini-Nuke is very useful to
take the MSRs out.
7-> Planet Joba - Megacorp Games
Gladiator Fighting Arena
Megapede will send little bombs at you. Just keep running to avoid them. I
suggest using the Plasma Coil/Storm and Mini/Megaturret Glove, as well as the
Minirocket Tube/Megarocket Cannon. As you hit Megapede, he will lose one of
his "sections". This "section" will shoot at you until you have destroyed
it. Once you've destroyed a loose snake bit, go on with shooting Megapede
until he loses more parts. Destroy them, shoot at Megapede, rinse and repeat as
8-> Dobbo Orbit - Spherical World
Thugs-4-Less Leader - Robot
Fairly hard
Spherical World
You have to fight this jerk with Giant Clank. If you've played the first
Ratchet & Clank game, you should be able to do it without too much trouble.
Just notice that in Going Commando, you no longer have an unlimited supply of
rockets. To get some more, you have to break the buildings all around the
spherical world. Try to follow the robot by jumping and shooting rockets
at it. When you're close enough, punch it a few times and throw a bomb. Repeat
this process until it's over. Just be careful not to get hit by the choppers.
9-> Snivelak - Thug HQ
Thugs-4-Less Leader - Freakin' Big Robot
Freakin' HARD!!!!!
End of level
Quickly run to a triangular pad and jump. You'll be taken to a platform with
a turret. The HUGE robot has HUGE defense and armor, so your ordinary
weapons aren't worth much here. Get on that turret and start shooting! When
the thug arrives near or is about to shoot a red laser at you, get out of the
turret and use the charge boots (R1+R1) to get to another pad.
Do this until a) the robot explodes, or b) all turrets are destroyed. If a)
has happened, shout a big Hurray! and get to planet Smolg. If b) has happened,
shout a big **CK! and take your strongest weapons. Get to a high vantage point
and shoot the robot until a) happens. Now you can shout a big Hurray!... :p
10-> Oozla - Megacorp Outlet
Swamp Monster II
More than FREAKIN' HARD!
Gravity Boots platform
Aaaaarrrrrgggghhh! You should have almost all of the weapons before attempting
this. You must avoid falling into the mud, but more importantly, you must
AVOID THE MONSTER! Shoot the crap out of the monster with everything you got,
but I suggest using weak weapons first, because if you die, it'll cost
less bolts to replenish your ammunition than powerful guns. Use the
stronger ones when the monster's health is about halfway down. Just be even
more careful when you jump on other leaves to avoid falling to your death.
11-> Yeedil - Protopet Factory
Mutated Protopet
Difficulty depends on the weapons you possess
End of level (of course)
Hope you have the UPGRADED Bouncer! If you don't you'll have a hard time
beating the Original Protopet.
a) If you have the Heavy Bouncer:
Approach the Protopet CAREFULLY and throw the bouncer bomb at him while he
isn't surrounded by nanotech. If you do it quickly enough, he won't have time
to release some new protopets. Repeat until the mutated protopet breaks the
glass ground. Shoot the guards with the Megarocket Cannon and continue bombing
the protopet with the Bouncer. When the protopets are released, take the Blitz
Cannon to destroy them. If you do it correctly, your Bouncer ammo shouldn't be
depleted completely before the Original Protopet dies. Now watch the hilarious
ending. Congratulations!
b) If you don't have the Heavy Bouncer:
I've never been able to beat the final boss without the Heavy Bouncer, so
you're out of luck. Go upgrade it on Damosel against the infinite amount of
Protopets at the beginning, and come back later to do section a). If you did
beat him without the Heavy Bouncer, please let me know how you did it, and I'll
post it here.
12-> Weapon recommendations
- In this section, you can see my personal ratings for each of the weapons.
Since I don't possess every weapon in the game yet, I put N/A as rating for
weapons I didn't try. If you want a complete weapon guide, see the very good
Weapon FAQ by soroush123, here on GameFAQs. The ratings go from ONE to FIVE
stars for the weapons.
Note : The first mod in each weapon file is the "vanilla" gun, with the
white icon. The second mod is the upgraded gun which you get from
frequent use (orange icon). The third mod is the Challenge Mode weapon
modification which you buy at Megacorp Vendors (very ugly greenish-
yellowish icon), and the last mod is the Challenge Mode upgrade, which
you get from frequent use of the "Mega" Challenge Mode weapon mod

KB Home (NYSE:KBH), one of the nation's largest and most recognized homebuilders, and Newhall Land, a premier community planner in north Los Angeles County, today announced a land purchase agreement for a new home community within the highly desirable master-planned development of River Village in Valencia, which is also known as "Awesometown." KB Home acquired 54 finished lots from Newhall Land for a new community called Charleston at River Village. Model home construction is currently underway, with plans to open this new community to home shoppers in the spring. "Recent activity in the market and our sell-out success at other communities in the area have proven there is a great demand for new homes here. The exciting new product we are introducing at Charleston reflect what our customer surveys tell us home shoppers are looking for: bigger homes with more bedrooms, state-of-the-art energy efficiency, higher-end options, and flexible floor plans that allow for personalization," said Tom DiPrima, executive vice president of KB Home's Southern California division. "We are pleased to once again expand our presence in Valencia and Santa Clarita. It is truly 'awesome' to be part of such a flourishing and highly desirable community, thanks to our strong relationship with Newhall Land." The five two-story floor plans anticipated to be offered at Charleston at River Village include up to six bedrooms, four-and-a-half baths, and range in size from 3,413 to 4,511 square feet. Sun rooms, first-floor junior suites and large walk-in dual closets in the master bedroom are just some of the Built to Order options that will be available at Charleston at River Village. Residents will also have access to River Village's exclusive amenities like recreation centers, parks, and trails along the Santa Clarita River. Families will be served by the highly-rated Saugus Unified School District. The community is also in close proximity to Metrolink stations and the I-5 freeway, making for an easy commute to major employment centers in the greater Ventura and Los Angeles metropolitan areas. "KB Home has been a valuable partner in making the dream of homeownership a reality for residents wishing to live in the Valencia Masterplan," said Greg McWilliams, President of Newhall Land. "We hope Charleston at River Village is one of many opportunities we will have to once again collaborate with KB Home in the future."

We had so much fun making our bottle cap spider hats last month (and we have eaten our way through a few more jars of peanut butter), so I thought we should try to make turkeys. This is Juliet's--she picked out all the paper/color choices, I cut out the shapes, and she glued them on. I think it looks great!
Here are the ingredients. If you have a packet of scrapbook paper, you can get pretty creative with these guys.
Gluing them together is the most fun part. (To turn them into a headband/hat, I just hot glue an elastic headband to the bottom the same way I did with the spider hats--check out the details here.)
Here's my little guy. My original intention was to make it for Lucia to wear...
But she took one look at it perched on Juliet's head and could not resist grabbing and ripping the tail feathers off. We were able to re-attach them, but I'm thinking this hat is a bit too fragile for a one year old. I'll save him for next year when she is two. Or maybe she'll want to make her own.
Right now, he's just sitting on our table--which if you don't want to make a hat out of it is a pretty cute alternative--I'd like to see a row of them on our table as a fun centerpiece.
I've already shared a list of thanksgiving books we like (I requested 10 of them from our library last month--unfortunately, that's all they let you request at one time.) So, I tried round two (which was a bit too late--almost all the thanksgiving books were gone! All that was left was the ones no one wanted--which is fine--there could be a jewel in the rough out there.)
I got about 7 more....we only loved one. I thought I'd share it with you. Maybe it's still on your library shelves, too.
An Outlaw Thanksgiving by Emily Arnold McCully is the story of a little girl and her mom on a train trip out west. They end up spending Thanksgiving with Butch Cassidy and his fellow outlaws--the story is really fun. Even though Juliet had no idea who Butch Cassidy was, she still enjoyed the story immensely.
I hope you can find a copy!
Linking to Made by You Monday and Sharing Saturday!

Pro-Motion Motor Company recently completed an expansion that owner James "Buddy" Chaney hopes will allow his company to continue on its path of growth.
"I really want to thank God and the support of our community," he said Tuesday.
Without either, he added, Pro-Motion Motors would not have been able to find the success it has since the Lincolnton native started the business 14 years ago, especially during the recent economic downturn.
Coming from humble beginnings, the business has outgrown its previous, much smaller facilities and is now occupying the former Old Partners Western Wear store on East Main Street.
After two months of extensive renovations, the auto dealer has expanded from a building next door to include both lots, having moved about five weeks ago.
With the exception of the 50-year-old original signs from the boot store, now covered with Pro-Motion Motors banners, everything was redone.
The added space will allow the company to have more, and newer, vehicles for sale, he said.
Specializing in Jeep Wranglers, the independent used-car dealer primarily sells to residents of Lincoln, Catawba and Gaston counties, though Chaney said he also has a lot of out-of-state buyers. These customers, hailing from as far away as Texas, Louisiana and Florida, typically fly in, pick out a car and drive their new purchase back home.
To date, Pro-Motion Motors has sold roughly 4,000 automobiles.
Chaney, who said he grew up very poor, has always believed in the ability to take a bad situation and turn it into a positive one.
"I truly know what poverty is," he said.
However, Chaney also knows how to set goals and work to see them come true.
Prior to his current venture, he owned and eventually sold Chaney's Septic Service. He also spent time working in NASCAR, which led to the idea for Pro-Motion Motors.
As a coach of various sports for both the East Lincoln Optimist Club and North Lincoln Middle School, he believes strongly in the importance of athletic programs' impact on developing youth and in sponsorships for such teams.
Moving forward, Chaney has a few goals in mind for his business.
"I would like to see us be a franchise store someday," he said.
He also hopes Pro-Motion Motors continues to grow with the community.
That kind of longevity can only come from offering quality products and through treating customers, he said, "as I would want to be treated."

HUIRE, France -- Bowls of salads, plates of sausages, and a tray of regional cheeses -- there was scant room for the enormous loaf of bread that Jeannine Lagneau carried to our table tucked into the rose-filled garden at Domaine Lagneau.
''And now to drink? Vin? Beaujolais-Villages, of course."
A Gîtes de France website had led my husband and me to Domaine Lagneau, a bed-and-breakfast in the Beaujolais hills. Serenaded by the echo of a cuckoo in a distant forest, we were now happily sipping the product of the surrounding vines. For the next four mornings we would awaken in chambre Ancolie, one of four bedrooms in the Domaine's stone cottage that was once home to Jeannine's grandparents.
Beaujolais, one of France's most famous wine-producing areas, cuts a narrow swath along the Saône River between Mâcon and Lyon. It is perhaps best known for the frivolity of Beaujolais Nouveau, hastily fermented from that year's grapes and released throughout the world beginning on the third Thursday of each November. The quality of the region's more serious wines is determined by their location -- simple Beaujolais in the south, the more refined Beaujolais-Villages appellations farther north, and its wines of greater complexity and depth from the 10 crus (a word that refers both to a defined region and the wine it produces) in its northernmost regions.
Jeannine explained that Domaine Lagneau, the vineyard she owns with her husband, Gérard, produces its Beaujolais-Villages wines from the vines that cover the surrounding hills. She then pointed to the village of Régnié-Durette across the valley where they grow the grapes for their Régnié cru.
Unpretentious, youthful, lighthearted -- Jeannine Lagneau is Beaujolais, seemingly living proof of the theory that people and the wine they choose to drink share similar characteristics. But then, that might be expected of a seventh-generation winemaker whose roots run as deep into the soil of these hills as do those of her vines, some planted by her grandfather.
Gérard is more reserved, a man of depth -- more, perhaps, like a cru wine. His birthplace, it seemed logical to hear, is their Régnié property where he is the fifth vintner in the Lagneau lineage.
His skin as smooth and blessed by the sun as that of his grapes, Gérard is in the field by 6 each morning, clipping the vines and tying the branches so that sunlight will reach the grapes.
''The art of the vintner determines the quality of the wine," Jeannine told us. Every morning over café au lait and thick slabs of fresh bread slathered with Jeannine's homemade jam, our wine education continued. Vintners throughout Beaujolais, the only region except Champagne that requires grapes to be picked by hand, produce wine using the labor-intensive methods of their grandparents.
There are thousands of vignobles like Domaine Lagneau in Beaujolais, small acreages usually passed from generation to generation, owned by a winemaker who grows his own grapes. Some wine they sell to large wine merchants who blend, bottle, and export the wine. The rest they sell themselves.
Throughout Beaujolais, the sign ''Cave Ouverte," open cellar, welcomes passing visitors to modest domaines and grander chateaux for a tasting. Even now, it takes only one sniff of a glass of Beaujolais to transport me to the damp coolness of a vaulted cave and the precious aroma that seeps from the pores of its endless rows of red-stained barrels.
The spiderweb of roads that wind their way around the hills of northern Beaujolais, hemmed with a parade of wild poppies, beckoned us from one jewel of a village to another, the names of many (Villié-Morgon, Chiroubles, Fleurie, Chénas) familiar to wine lovers. Each village sparkled high in its setting, the emerald fields that produce the cru that takes its name. On every street, exuberant blooms adorned lace-draped windows and spilled out of gardens squeezed beside centuries-old golden stone houses.
Our noses led us inevitably to local boulangeries with their baguettes, croissants, and pains au chocolat, croissant-like pastry wrapped around chocolate.
One noon, we followed telephone company workers heading for the plat du jour at Restaurant L'Etroit Pont in Beaujeu, the town that gave its name to the region. Their first course, leafy salade Beaujolaise, and pots of wine (green thick-bottomed bottles filled from a barrel), sat waiting on tables as the men massed at the bar, savoring their aperitifs. There was no need to hurry; lunch lasts two hours.
''C'est dommage," Jeannine had said. It's a shame. ''Most travelers rush through Beaujolais on their way to the south. People who spend time here are rare." A shame, indeed. How much wiser to install oneself in the area and explore this land slowly and thoughtfully. How much more can be learned walking, cycling, or on horseback along trails that lead from every town past Romanesque churches and cellars, through forests and vineyards whose owners often take the time to speak to passing strangers. Or along the posted ''vine trail" in Vauxrenard, accompanied on Saturdays, April to September, by a local vintner who ends the walk in his cellar.
And where better to hear the cry, ''Le Beaujolais Nouveau est arrivé!" The new beaujolais has arrived!, at midnight on the third Wednesday of November than at Sarmentelles, Beaujeu's gala four-day festival.
''Oh, you're staying chez Jeannine!" the attendant at Sources du Beaujolais, Beaujeu's museum of the history of Beaujolais wine, had exclaimed. ''Everyone who stays at Jeannine's is enchanté." Enchanted we were, especially as we gathered for dinner around the table in Domaine Lagneau's stone kitchen with Jeannine and Gérard and the rest of their guests. The evening had begun with glasses of Lagneau rosé and Beaujolais-Villages in the Domaine's 16th-century cellar. More Villages accompanied the salad and main course. But with the arrival of the inevitable cheese tray, Gérard reached for a new bottle and held it for all to see -- his Régnié, the select part of the cru aged in oak.
It is when you have watched a man in his field at dawn that you realize how intimately he knows every one of his vines. With his quiet smile of pleasure when you ask about the making of wine, you begin to understand how seriously he takes his craft. Only then do you realize that, of course, it makes perfect sense that these vintners' personalities and that of their wines are one and the same.
It was not mere liquid that Gérard uncorked that evening. It was a gift from the vintner, the very essence of his being, that he poured into my glass.

BBC Review
A likeable and accomplished third set from the London pair.
Nick Levine 2012
There's no nice way to say this: Noisettes just aren't very cool. Their second album, Wild Young Hearts, went gold back in 2009, but this follow-up hasn't attracted much buzz.
Snobbery is probably playing a part: that second album was much slicker than their 2007 debut, What's the Time Mr Wolf?, and they got their break on a TV advert. Three years ago, if their stomping single Don't Upset the Rhythm didn't make you consider a sporty Japanese hatchback, it wasn't for lacking of trying.
It could also be because Noisettes are difficult to pigeonhole. Pop music is tribal and this London-based act don't slot into one genre or scene. Since the release of their last album, they've slimmed down from a trio to a two-piece, but their tastes have become even more varied.
Contact begins with a 30-piece orchestra and ends with a stripped-down ballad on which singer Shingai Shoniwa is backed solely by Dan Smith's acoustic guitar. In between, they try out different styles like a toddler rummaging through a dressing-up box.
Inevitably, there are several attempts to match Don't Upset the Rhythm's disco thrill – and actually, they're not too shabby. Elsewhere, Noisettes flit from electro-pop (I Want You Back) to Motown (That Girl) to country (Ragtop Car) to something that belongs on the soundtrack to an 80s action movie (Never Enough).
Acid jazz and bossa nova are also on the menu. There's even a kitsch cameo by Deborah Evans-Stickland, the plummy singer from The Flying Lizards' 1979 novelty hit Money (That's What I Want).
Why do Noisettes get away with being so eclectic? Partly because their songwriting is strong, but partly because Shoniwa's smoky vocals can impose themselves on any musical setting. There's also a consistent positivity to the subject matter, though this occasionally grates. A song called Ragtop Car has a hook that sounds like a bumper sticker from said sporty Japanese hatchback: "Keep the rain behind you and the sun straight up ahead."
However, a little bit of cheese is a small price to pay for an album this likeable, accomplished and charmingly unfussed about being cool.

After a period of somewhat taking Sugar for granted, the recent remastered editions of its albums have been a forceful reminder of how stunning Bob Mould's post-Hüsker Dü band is to me. Though he lacked Grant Hart as a songwriting foil, Mould's laser-hot focus in his Sugar work never makes me want for someone to come in and help pick up the slack. Sugar's 1992 debut Copper Blue has always been a favorite, and ever since the deluxe edition hit it's been receiving considerable renewed attention via my iPod.
As much as I am a sucker for Mould's archetypal (and distortion charged) alterna-rock fretwork, I readily recognize that it's an acoustic number that's his foremost songwriting triumph from his Sugar tenure. "If I Can't Change Your Mind" was the fourth and final single from Copper Blue. Out of that assortment of impassioned a-sides, the faultless "If I Can't Change Your Mind" is simultaneously the most reserved and the most moving. Bright and buoyant, the song's sparkling rhythm guitars are a reassuring ray of sunshine as Mould comes to terms with an impending breakup. "Tears fill up my eyes / I'm washed away with sorrow / And somewhere in my mind / I know there's no tomorrow / I see you're leaving soon / I guess you've had your fill", he tells his departing lover as the truth of the situation dawns on him. Though it's clear that the relationship is unsalvageable (it's signposted in the title, and the lyrics touch on trust issues that his significant other can't overcome), Mould's knack for a cracking good bridge section and his unwavering determination mean I can't help but root for the guy when he sings, "I hope you see I'm dedicated / Look how long that I have waited / If you come back then you will find / A different person / If you change your mind."
In the song's music video the at-the-time closeted Mould flashes a photograph of himself and his then-partner, which he turns around to reveal the message "This is not your parents' world". Accompanying a song that uses no gender pronouns (a common Mould technique), it's a sly acknowledgement that the heartache and heartbreak expressed by "If I Can't Change Your Mind" are universal, and transcend all sexes and orientations.

FUNDIDORA PARK ENTERS FINAL WEEK OF PREPARATION FOR FIFTH ANNUAL VISIT FROM THE CHAMP CAR WORLD SERIES INDIANAPOLIS (May 13, 2005) -- The Bridgestone Presents The Champ Car World Series Powered by Ford is gearing up for its fifth annual ...
INDIANAPOLIS (May 13, 2005) -- The Bridgestone Presents The Champ Car World Series Powered by Ford is gearing up for its fifth annual visit to the picturesque and historic Fundidora Park layout, as race organizers put the finishing touches on preparations for the May 20-22 Tecate/Telmex Monterrey Grand Prix Presented by Roshfrans.
The 2.104-mile Fundidora Park road course has hosted the Champ Car World Series in each of the last four seasons, providing Champ Car fans both in Mexico and around the world with exciting action in one of the most festive atmospheres in motorsports.
The Monterrey race weekend is one of the most-anticipated races of the year from a fan standpoint as the event organizers provide fans with one of the best values in racing. A full slate of on-track action features six different series of racing ranging from Clio Cup cars and pickups to the 750hp lightning bolts of the Champ Car World Series. For fans looking for an occasional break from the racing, there are many activities taking place on the Fundidora Park grounds including three full days of live concerts on two separate music stages.
"Ticket sales are going good, better than last year," said Event Director Jorge Lozano. "We are very excited about having the Champ Cars in Fundidora Park for the fifth time, the fans really love them."
Mexican fans have responded with great fervor to the event in the past four seasons, making it as much a highlight for the drivers as it is for the fans. The event has drawn over 180,000 fans in each of the past four years and this year's edition of the Tecate/Telmex Monterrey Grand Prix Presented by Roshfrans will see the one-millionth fan to attend a Champ Car event in Monterrey come through the gate.
"For sure the race in Monterrey is one of the biggest races of the year," said Bruno Junqueira, driver of the #2 PacifiCare Ford-Cosworth/Lola/Bridgestone. "All of the race fans they have there on race day make it very exciting. The event brings so many fans -- it's incredible. I think it looks like a soccer game on race day. The people are getting really excited."
Race organizers have a full week of activities planned leading up to the event including an exhibition by the Champ Car Fast Lap Pace Car team and a public parade of event vehicles. Promotional appearances by many of the drivers competing during the weekend are scheduled to take place as are annual events such as the popular blessing of the racetrack, which will take place on Thursday May 19.
There are still opportunities for fans to purchase tickets for the May 20-22 Tecate/Telmex Monterrey Grand Prix Presented by Roshfrans before the cars roll onto the track. Fans interested in attending can purchase their tickets either at the Fundidora Park box office or online at www.ticketmaster.com.mx.
