Martial Arts
Los Angeles martial arts centers and studios teach student of all ages the ancient physical arts of the Far East, including tae kwon do, karate, and kung fu. These classes are beneficial to students not only in that they learn ancient arts, but they also learn self-defense and how to harness their mental, emotional, and psychological energies to gain total control of their minds and bodies. The lessons learned can then be applied to all aspects of life, including professional and academic pursuits.

Los Angeles biking is a hobby that's growing more popular by the day, partly due to the fact that consumers are growing increasingly interested in forms of transport that don't involve large amounts of fuel emissions. Biking is especially popular with individuals who are looking for a fun way to exercise that allows them to engage with their environment. Many cities now require that biking paths be included in the design of all major thoroughfares since there are so many bikers on the streets.

Despite the fact that everyone seems consumed with the latest technological gadgets and eschews any outdoor activity, the truth is that camping remains a popular way to reconnect with Mother Nature. Los Angeles camping is big business, with many companies offering a variety of camping experiences that go beyond simply pitching a tent in the forest with friends or family. The camping experience can now be tailored to suit individual interest in certain geographic regions, landmarks, and even animal species.

Given the city's proximity to large bodies of water, fishing has been a historically popular pastime. Los Angeles fishing is best enjoyed in groups, which is why a whole host of deep sea fishing services depart regularly, allowing avid fishers can make the best catches of the season. These popular fisheries are host to some of the most populated water containing everything from catfish to swordfish. Boat rentals and charter boat fishing are available for groups of all sizes.

Review this carBy Wheat (Castle Rock, Colorado) on Friday, April 29, 2011
overall rating 10 of 10rating details
"I have owned my 1992 Coupe for the past 5 years. It is not my daily driver and still has less than 50K on her, but even when she sits, she still starts up on the 1st click. With correct tires, ( I have Michellin Pilots) and the 50/50 weight displacement, she holds tight curves at all speeds I put her through. Since this model is little known, everyone that comes up to me about the car think it is a current model. Every car I have ever owned has been a manual, and the shifting in this beats them all hands down. The gear ratio is right on. I love this car and don't see myself ever getting rid of her."

"I bought my 968 last April and have enjoyed driving it ever since. The price I paid was good, and it needed some work, but it has been a labor of love with this car. The more I repair things, the better I like the car (of course). I didn't expect to develop such an emotional attachment with it. Why? So many reasons: - Great driving car - Nice power, which translates to fun - Great cornering ability - Seems dependable as I repair things that were abused before I owned the car - It attracts a LOT of attentions, which was completely unanticipated. People will come out of stores to look at it. Others will walk up to it and comment about how beautiful the car looks. It's a phenomenon I am unaccustomed to, but which is very gratifying. One thing I have learned is that if you can find a great mechanic, who will work on the car at a decent rate, do everything you can to keep a good relationship. It seems that some mechanics think that because you own a Porsche (no matter how old) you must be loaded. I know in my case that isn't true! Basically, once you have the car where you want it, enjoy it! It's a fantastic drive. I intend to keep my car a long time and then pass it on to my son, who already loves it. (You should see the smile that crosses his face when we "put the pedal to the metal.""

"The 968 is an overlooked gem. Buy one if you can find it. My '94 cabriolet is a former California car, new ragtop, new leather, new paint, a fresh set of timeing stuff, 6 speed is smooth as silk. It's powerfull and a pleasure to play with when the top's down. Parts are pricey, but what the heck, it's an affordable sports car that'll blow the doors off others it's age. No one seems to know what a 968 is, so be prepared to talk about this car in parking lots when folks come up to ask."

Labor Day's here early this year at the UWMC theatre. Wausau's dramatic ensemble The Oasis is on stage with William Inge's Picnic. Today Chris is speaking with the director, Chuck Cornelius. You can find out more about the play, and the group by logging on to their website at http://www.oasistheaterensemble.org
It's Easter weekend, and there's plenty going on across Central Wisconsin. Let's take a look at the community calendar.
You can get a little bowling with the family this weekend, and even win some trophies. It's the Easter 9-pin Tournament at Dales Weston Lanes tomorrow night. The tournament starts at 3, and there's a dinner and raffle at 7 pm. It's just 30 dollars per person per team, and everyone has a chance to win prizes. Find out more by calling 359-8488.
St. Peter's Elementary in Schofield is hosting their Easter Kids party tomorrow morning starting at 9:30. Your child will sing songs, make crafts, and enjoy games with other children their age. A free hot dog lunch will be provided. This a free program for kids ages 3 to fifth grade.

So come on out, and leave the bags and baskets at home so everyone can get some eggs.
Thanks again to Chuck Cornelius and the Oasis theatre ensemble. Picnic continues tonight at 7:30 and tomorrow at 2:30 and 7:30 at the UWMC theatre. Tickets are just 10 dollars at the door.
Next week, you probably have some left over Easter candy. Why not turn it into art? It's the Peeps Exhibition at Water Street Arts in Rothschild.

Review of:RETAINING SCREW
A hard to find item but finally, I found it. Read full review
This was my second purchase from DrillSpot and I am completely satisfied with my overall experience.
Drillspot had the best price I could find. They shipped very quickly. The item was well packaged. I could not have been more satisfied.
Cheapest price I could find, and fast, free, damage-free shipping too. The item I ordered arrived in perfect shape, just two days after placing my order. The price was about 40% less than the MSRP or highest price at other places online or nearby. Who could ask for more?
Drillspot provided the best price for this item on the net. Their delivery was ahead of schedule and the items arrived in perfect order. I would definitely use Drillspot again and would recommend them to anyone looking for a professionally run company with competitive prices.
Have no hesitations on ordering from this seller. The fan was actually broken when I received it, not due to their fault, and the customer service was awesome!! Immediately refunded my money. No hassles. This is the kind of company I love to do business with. Thank you!!
Ordered a Weber Smoky Mountain Smoker on Monday and received it Friday in Ohio. Just wanted to say thanks on the great price and great delivery. Best price on this item anywhere.

Oscar asks Andy why he's back early, and Andy duhs that this is his super-romantic Valentine's Day surprise for Erin. He presents her with a couple of bamboo sticks and expects her to join him in an impromptu performance of some island music on the spot. "Hey, Burning Man, if it's not selling out too much, you might want to throw on a tie," Dwight interrupts. "David Wallace is gonna be here in an hour." Andy says that's why he's here. Oh, and also for Erin (who repels another hug attempt). It turns out that Andy never technically told Wallace he was gone for three months. "But we've been in touch the whole time. It's not hard to get high-speed Internet in Turks and Caicos, people." Erin looks visibly disgusted, for reasons that become clear with a quick TH inset from her saying, "He only emailed me four times." That's actually twice as much as I thought he had. Andy asks where Jim is and wonders why he's at lunch for two hours. Oscar pointedly asks if long absences from the workplace concern Andy. "If the shoe fits, "Andy non-answers. I think he means loafer.
At lunch, Brian is talking to Jim and Pam about the end of his marriage and suddenly breaks down into tears. "We have to find a different way to communicate other than breaking down in front of each other," he says to Pam. "At least my crying won't get you fired." Which is all clearly news to Jim. "Crying?" he asks, taking his hand from the back of Pam's chair.
Andy congratulates Dwight on landing the White Pages account, but dings him for not getting pricing approval. From Andy. "You were on a boat," Dwight grumbles, and refuses to agree that they're "coolio." So to win the point, Andy calls up Jan on the phone. Once she's on the line, Dwight desperately hisses "coolio" several times, but it's too late; she's so disgusted at Andy calling her after the fact to price-gouge her that she cancels the contract on the spot. "That was not how I had hoped that would go," Andy understates.

Dont underestimate them, just ask any WWII veteran who fought against the Japanese.
As a matter of fact, if I had to fight in WWII I would want to fight against the Germans or the Western Allies. The Soviets and Japanese were downright terriyfing and vicious.
The USSR lost millions of men in the first days of battle....they almost lost.
And yet they fought on. That's what is so terrifying about them. They don't surrender. They wouldnt even take "one step backward" at one point, you had to kill them all to move forward.
Yup, then came Stalingrad....and the German's ran out of bullets and froze.

The Knowledge: Jack Grayson
To people not directly associated with the American Productivity and
But Jack Grayson, founder and chairman of the organisation four decades ago, remains quite active at the age of 85 and wants to live to be 113. By the time I reach 113, he says, deCODE will give me more reports to help me so I can go on to the next phase of my life which is to reach 150. A company that does genetic scans, deCODE predicts, among other things, life expectancy based on genetics, prevention and lifestyle.
Meanwhile, Grayson works fulltime on APQCs education initiatives to bring process benchmarking to the forefront of the K-12 education system.
Several lifetimes already
He has already packed several lifetimes into his current 85 years. Before founding APQC he was a New Orleans newspaper reporter, a special agent of the FBI, a manager of a cotton farm in northern Louisiana, a member of an export-import firm, an owner of race horses, a pilot of a single-engine airplane, and a skydiver (on his 75th birthday).
But his claim to national fame came in 1971 when he was appointed chairman of the US Price Commission during the period of price-wage controls necessitated by an international economic crisis not unlike the one the world faces now.
The commission was established when President Richard Nixon froze wages and prices for 90 days, got Congress to repeal certain excise taxes and took the US off the gold standard.
Nixons strategy worked. Though few liked the controls, Grayson was accorded national recognition by the press, business people and labor unions for his fair and firm administration of controls.
Value of productivity
During this time Grayson learnt how important productivity was to the economy and noticed growth in American productivity was slowing. When he returned from public life to rejoin the private sector he founded the American Productivity Center (APC), later to be expanded to APQC when he added the focus on quality in the 1980s.
He went back to
After the name of his think tank was expanded from APC to APQualityC, the acronym seems to have become frozen, even though the organisation continues to expand to meet the changing needs of modern management, including KM. In fact with the Ps and Qs in its name in conflict with many KM views APQC is still the acclaimed leader of KM research, thought leadership, process development and education in the
When APC was founded in 1977 as a non-profit organisation, United States Steel Corporation ran ads in the New York Times and Wall Street Journal quoting Grayson saying We improve our business system or lose our world competitiveness.
His vision for APQC was to empower people and organisations with data, benchmarks and best practices so they can transform their organisations. Then and now Graysons goal has also been to transform the entire
Leading role in Baldrige
APQC played a leading role in developing the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award, the Open Standard Benchmarking Collaborative, and over the last decade a number of knowledge management process management tools.
Grayson has a simple way of demystifying process management. Getting up in the morning is a process. Driving your car is a process. Making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich is a process. Going to work is a process.
It follows that business is a collection of processes:
Developing strategic plans;
Creating an organisational structure;
Designing and inventing products;
Producing products and services;
Marketing and selling products;
Managing facilities and supplies;
Developing employees.
Today APQC has a staff of 90 and a budget of $12m. Thirty per cent of that comes from 500 corporate members while 70 per cent is generated from fees for service. The heart of APQC still runs on Graysons founding view.
Knowledge is everything at APQC, even where the Ps and Qs are concerned.
But what is knowledge without learning? While Carla ODell was developing a powerful knowledge management initiative in the 90s and early 2000s, Grayson was leading the creation of APQCs education initiative to help educational institutions restructure academic and administrative process by identifying, adapting and implementing best practices found in all sectors including education, business, health care and government.
The practical academic
This is from yet another side of Dr C. Jackson Grayson, graduate with a bachelors from
His academic career has included professorships at Harvard, Stanford, Tulane and Southern Methodist University (SMU) and he has taught in business schools in
No wonder then that this man who has at least once been called a maverick thinks differently.
Also meaningful is the fact that this educational initiative dovetails with all the other expert areas of APQC benchmarking, process management, innovation, quality improvement, knowledge management, data management, knowledge sharing and the transfer of best practices.
In Jack Graysons world, all these things are never either/or. Never narrowly focused, Grayson believes in variety, constant learning, experimentation
and fun! Hes a CPA and has served on the boards of directors of a number of large corporations but, as you can see, his focus is not confined to business.
Grayson is the first person in the world outside of the scientific community to have his genome scanned as part of deCODEs private service. For him, it isnt so much about extending life as it is about reaching his maximum potential.
Ive spent my lifetime helping people and organisations maximise their potential and I feel like Ive got several more decades in me.

Labradoodle & Goldendoodle Forum
My goodness!!! These are wonderfully!!! Thanks so much for sharing the "how-to"! Between these and Jane's....I've got work to do!!!!! For now, I'm going to just sit and sweat : )
These are what I referred to.
Those are so pretty! Here are some I took a while back
Then to make things more interesting I shot some of colored milk drops.
My settings for these were
f/2.5 1/4000 sec and ISO 1600. Probably not the best settings for the photos, but it took me about 2 hours of trial and error to get it to work this well. I have lots to learn about it. :-)
Love them....that last one is my favorite.
Wow, these are great. I love the colored milk ones. I did some cream into coffee a while back those were fun also. I can't believe you got these without flash! I probably shot several hundred frames to get a few decent shots. Thank goodness for digital.
If you put a piece of colored paper under and behind the glass it will pick up all the colors. Here is an old one. There is red and orange paper under a glass pie plate and green in the background. I used construction paper.
Oh I love the swirled colors in the middle.
Wow, that is cool! I think my settings were the way they were because I didn't have/use a flash. I should try it with one...
You can use the pop up flash on your camera if it has one.
AWESOME!!! It almost looks like a piece of expensive blown glass! I love how the colors appear to be swirling inside the raised section of water.
This is an incredibly inspiring thread....
It reminds me of Murano glass and Chihuly glass.

The chart that explains media's addiction to print — Tech News and Analysis
The fact that print still drives a massive amount of revenue for traditional media players also helps to explain why so many paywalls used by publishers like the New York Times are tied to Sunday print subscriptions or other print-related offers. In addition to producing revenue from loyal readers, those deals are also designed to protect the print-subscription numbers, so that advertisers will continue to feel they are getting their money's worth. The multibillion-dollar question is: How much longer can print maintain that sense of superiority?

Brisbane Roar striker Besart Berisha vows to send Victory coach Ange Postecoglou home a loser
- The Courier-Mail
- October 10, 2012
Brisbane Roar firebrand Besart Berisha has vowed to inflict further misery on Ange Postecoglou by sending his former coach back to Melbourne a loser this weekend.
"I must beat him. I will beat him," a bullish Berisha said ahead of Saturday night's Roar-Victory showdown at Suncorp Stadium.
A-League Highlights
Catch up with all the great video highlights from the latest round of Hyundai A-League action.
It is Postecoglou's first return to the Roar's home ground since he turned his back on the club he led to successive A-League titles to become coach of Melbourne Victory.
His departure still angers some Roar supporters, particularly as he confirmed his defection only hours after April's grand final victory parade, where he told fans of his desire to win a hat-trick of championships with Brisbane.
Berisha said he would be eternally grateful to the "fantastic" Postecoglou for reviving a career that seemed to be going nowhere at German lower division club Arminia Bielefeld.
But now the 27-year-old Albanian international striker, who scored 23 goals in all competitions last season, regarded Postecoglou as the enemy and pledged his loyalty to new Roar coach Rado Vidosic.
"I'm the protector of my team. We cannot lose against the Victory," Berisha said. "Ange is not my coach any more, he's now on the other side.
"Rado is doing a great job with us."
Both the Roar and the Victory are desperate to hit back after first-round defeats.
The often grumpy Postecoglou was particularly filthy after his star-studded Victory line-up lost 2-1 to the Heart in last Friday's season-opening Melbourne derby at Etihad Stadium.
He was still angry yesterday as he punished his players with a brutal training session.
Victory striker Daniel Allsopp yesterday told reporters Postecoglou had "made his message loud and clear".
"He was obviously disappointed and the boys have taken it pretty tough," Allsopp said.
Berisha said the Roar were just as disappointed with their first-up 1-0 loss to Perth Glory in a sometimes fiery grand final rematch at Patersons Stadium.
"It was a very tough start for us, but now we have to show why we are the champions," the reigning Golden Boot winner said.
"Ange was part of our success, but he wasn't the reason for all our success and that's what we will prove this season.
"It's not just about beating Ange this weekend, it's about beating Melbourne Victory."
Berisha predicted a repeat of the fighting qualities the Roar had shown to overcome the loss of Matt McKay and Kosta Barbarouses to win a second successive championship.
"McKay and Barbarouses left our team after we won the first title and we bounced back to win it again last season as well," he said.
"We want to show that even though Ange has left, we will bounce back to win another title."

Cb of QLD says October 10, 2012 at 10:33 AM
Roar supporters were dirty he left, but I can guarantee he will get a standing ovation at Suncorp this weekend. Every Roar supporter & player knows just want he did for us. Not only for the on field play, but changing the club culture. Before there was no community engagement. Now the players are out in the community all the time and promoting not only the Roar, but the Aleague as a whole. Thanks Ange. But i hope you get belted this weekend.
Harry HK says October 10, 2012 at 10:53 AM
Amen to Cb of QLD. But remeber that his year is .....Wanderland!
every roar fan of everywhere says October 10, 2012 at 10:54 AM
theres only one postecoglou!
bartinho of Brisbane says October 10, 2012 at 11:23 AM
Great comment Cb of QLD. Ange did a great job for the Roar but he must not win this week. Go Roar.
Matt of Brisbane says October 10, 2012 at 11:47 AM
Ange played a massive part in making the Roar what they are and I will definetley applaud him come Saturday night at Suncorp, but I truly hope he is utterly miserable once the whistle goes. Time for Brisbane to remind Ange of what he left.
Ian of Brisbane says October 10, 2012 at 12:06 PM
actually i expect some loud booing. he will cop some. that's football. of course its great what happened. but do you expect a standing ovation for the opposition coach? what do you think victory fans would do if it was the other way around? shower him with roses and chocolates? ange isn't an endangered species. i expect ange to looking forlorn at the ground in a pensive mood much like what he did after losing to the heart. he can cop it. that doesn't mean he's hated. but no need to cry about it if there are some boos. berisha is a legend. this is exactly how it should be. any fan, especially from victory who pulls some garbage like treat him with respect needs their heads read. berisha must beat him. there is no other way.
Besart Berisha of brisbane says October 10, 2012 at 12:28 PM
i will score some goals yes goals i score lots we win yes
entertaining says October 10, 2012 at 1:04 PM
It will be a great entertainment, to watch these two injuried tigers show off dirty tricks, the best part is - this time no body care if any one turns out to be victim or beneficiary as result of on the going "issues" apart from these two teams themselves. The other beauty is usually these two teams are the touble sources, now they are both trouble creators and receivers. hah
CB of QLD says October 10, 2012 at 1:05 PM
He will definitely boos from the crowd, but more so as a bit of banter..

Just take a dive, it worked in the final right?
Fan of Socceroos says October 10, 2012 at 1:27 PM
Roar have been great for the A League and Ange is a champion coach but Berisha is just a cheatin grub! The sooner he flys back to Germany to dive around their pitches the better, and take your fellow dive bomber Broich with you. Sick of people making excuses for these cheats who are conning refs and killing our game...
Peter of Port Macquarie says October 10, 2012 at 1:51 PM
It wil be interesting to see who the referee is going to be ...wink wink nudge nudge ..say no more
trevor eve says October 10, 2012 at 3:00 PM
Fan of socceroos - what do you think of harry kewell admitting on television last year that he dived? and flores and brua rolling around last friday night? even some MV fans came out and said so. just curious if you have blinkers on.
CB of QLD says October 10, 2012 at 3:02 PM
Fan of Socceroos.. Another expert who has never even played the game beyond div 5 local league yet knows everything.
Besart Berisha of Brisbane says October 10, 2012 at 3:05 PM
i do not dive i score goals plenty of goals i am the best look at me score i am good goals for me
tosin of melb says October 10, 2012 at 3:34 PM
If broich wasnt at the roar would they have been as successful under ange??
Mick Dalton of Kippa Ring says October 10, 2012 at 3:47 PM
Fan Of Socceroos you are a joke mate, must be a Perth Supporter, Berisha & Thomas are Champions mate, & the ALeague is a better league becaue of there presence, I suppose you'd like to see the league with no international stars, climb back under the rock you came from your the Grub.
Zu_lo_ of Emmveeffceeee says October 10, 2012 at 4:18 PM
Without Archie, Rojas & Milligan this week wouldn't be surprised to see MV get absolutely smashed. Forget wasting energy on getting angry Ange, you need to get organised. Friday was shambolic.
Harry Larry of AUSSOOOOO says October 10, 2012 at 4:39 PM
Goin to be a toughie, good match it definatley will be, i predict the roar to win, it's a game of barcelona(roar) Vs a team thats trying to play like barcelona(victory,)9 times out of 10 the team trying to play like the other team will lose. The Barcelona analogy was just an example, could have used arsenal, leeds, juventus, schalke,PSG(aka ibrahimovich, Chelsea or even Blackpool.
Ange Postecoglou of Mighty MV says October 10, 2012 at 4:44 PMDid you want to make a comment? Use our form below
Victory will try to get a win against Brisbane for the rest of the league. The Roar are hated around Australia after that pathetic GF showing where their cheating ways prevailed. It was so good to see Perth beat them last week! C'mon Vics!
Divers of Killing Football says October 10, 2012 at 6:14 PM
Agree Fan of Socceroos, unfortunately the only way this diving is going to stop is if ALL of the commentators and media journos stand up for the game and call these players up EVERY time they dive. Focus on it, replay it on TV and talk about it until it is cleaned up. All we see them doing so far is being Politically Correct and either ignoring it or making excuses for them.
nathan of wanderland says October 10, 2012 at 6:20 PM
"We want to show that even though Ange has left, we will bounce back to win another title." oh berisha, you funny guy, ange had you guys well drilled and now its all downhill from here buddy.
DanielMernda says October 10, 2012 at 6:50 PM
With Berisha, Broich and Do diving, not too mention the fact the Gillet will probably be in charge of the game the Victory dont have a fair chance.
Daniel of Mernda says October 10, 2012 at 8:11 PM
Victory meet them with their best three players out - hardly a fair contest!
Matt of Gosford says October 10, 2012 at 8:49 PM
@Peter of Port Macquarie... A nods as good as a wink to a blind bat hahaha SAY NO MORE!
Fan of Socceroos says October 11, 2012 at 12:50 AM
Ha! CB, I actually played professional football, thanks for asking! But it's not about me, it's about ridding our game of cheats like Berisha, Broich and Co. But hey, as long as Peanuts like you and Mick keep making excuses for them then good luck! You reap what you sew. While NBA and AFL are busy trying to get rid of Flopping and Ducking, we get weak people like you happy to put up with Diving. Congrats, well done!!
Bemused of Perth says October 11, 2012 at 12:55 AM
If players just stayed on their feet instead of diving then there would be no problems, not that hard really, just play the game like men...
DanielMernda says October 11, 2012 at 7:16 AM
FINALLY !We have people of reason!People who call these guys ,Berisha, Broich, Henrique and Do out for exactly what they are!CHEATS! Do you see now, Roary,SSHoodoo, Johhny Rotten? Outside of your little bubble which is Brisbane, this IS how your team is viewed!
DanielMernda says October 11, 2012 at 7:22 AM
@TrevorEve Your same ONE example week after week is really getting old big boy. Yes, a player who NO LONGER EVEN PLAYS FOR THE VICTORY did go down. I can go back through the years and say Adrian Trinidad dived when playing for the Glory. Christiano dived when playing for Adelaide. Rutger Worm dived when playing for the Heart. However, they wher ONE OFFS! The difference is, your club does it EVERY WEEK! Do last week, Berisha GF, Henrique SF against Mariners, Broich's play acting when touched on the toe by Foschini, Broich's play acting when touched by Leiger which led to Simon Hill calling him out on national TV and basically calling him a play acter. Do i need to go on?
ROAR says October 11, 2012 at 7:48 AMDid you want to make a comment? Use our form below
if ange was a supercoach he wouldnt field allsopp LOL we made you ange, now we'll un-make you.
Brett Cix of Palmwoodd says October 11, 2012 at 8:18 AM
Bretto of Brissy. Do you wingers about last years GF not watch TV ? The slow mo and stills show Berish's back leg being kicked in the process if him haveing a shot. If you get kicked in the penalty box , you go down.End of story.Build a bridge and get over it.
Realist says October 11, 2012 at 11:12 AM
fan of socceroos you do realise that it is not just those players that dive right? Getting rid of divers will never happen... never!
Neutral A league Booster of Melbourne says October 11, 2012 at 12:13 PM
Berisha is behaving like a footballer from the 1970s and 1980s. It was charming for all of two seconds. Now it is just annoying. I like the roar however he is making them unlikable. A bit like what Luis Suarez is doing to Pool.
Daz of Caves Beach says October 11, 2012 at 12:53 PM
Judging from this communication and others, it is now becoming evident that there was a growing dissent between Ange and the playing ranks of Roar, to which he saw no solution, hence his decision to resign and join Victory (talk about jumping from the frying pan into the fire, but that is another story). Guess Roar's abysmal showing in the AFC is another testiment to the fact.
Football fan of Australia says October 11, 2012 at 2:43 PM
Peter, the refs have been decided already... Its Strebre Delovski. One of the best refs in this league. I'm happy with either him or Jarred Gillett who are consistantly the best.
james noosa of sunny coast says October 12, 2012 at 12:07 PM
If you look at it, it is the players that are very skilful on the ball that we all accuse of diving. The ability to quickly change direction and retain possession while maintaining control in tight areas often leads to opposition players mistiming their tackles.The skilful player in these circumstances merely by the way he plays is frequently almost off balance, and therefore is more likely to fall. Berisha is frequently pushing the limits of balance. Not trying to make excuses but I have noticed this fr years. Maybe players must learn to time tackles on skilful players a little better.

Independent Marketplace in Sand City to Experiment With $5 Cover Charge
October 25, 2012
In a perfect world, communities would gather in a hip urban setting of concrete and commerce to buy and sell super-fresh seafood, browse mindfully curated art, listen to live music and valet their just-bought sauerkraut, jams and greens with the smiley volunteer while they sip local wines and graze on gourmet food-truck fare.
That perfect world has happened for seven months straight with the pioneering Independent Marketplace in Sand City (394-6000), in the unoccupied bottom floor of 600 Ortiz Ave.
Only it's not quite so perfect.
Vendor fees have not covered the costs of organizing, insuring and providing security for the first-Thursday marketplace, according to event co-founder Patrick Orosco, whose family's development company owns the building. So rather than continue to take a loss—which he's been justifying as essentially a marketing expense to give the space some exposure to possible tenants, instead of working with a broker to find businesses with heart, personality and verve—he's asking attendees to pay $5 to come starting next Thursday, Nov. 1.
He waxes philosophical, emotional and endless in explaining why that modest contribution plays right into the lofty aim of the market. He says it's an experiment, after all, where we're seeing how to keep it going, and this is the next step. He adds people are more than just static observers, they're participants, and pitching in is part of it. As the art is curated, the music quality, the entertainment long-lasting, the investment is well worth it.
"Compare it to $11 for a movie in a theater by yourself," he says. "Here you're supporting local artisans, musicians and producers. The goal is to communicate a connection between value—how much for how little—and values."
It may take Orosco a while to explain it—his preliminary press release he sent the Weekly was more than 1,600 words (excerpts appear below)—but he has reasonable enough arguments.
But all folks showing up on Thursday are going to hear is three words: "Five dollars, please."
Giving the people something for free then starting to charge later is tricky business. Facebook can bear witness to how not-so-well it can go.
So at least a few will walk away on principle. Dozens more will wonder why they're paying for the opportunity to spend money.
Plenty more will be unable to resist the themed art-culture-and-produce explosion. November's installment comes with Dia de los Muertos flavoring—think Big SurCus fire dancing, oyster-and-wine pairings, mixology, Mariquita Farms, with Big Sur Land Trust benefiting.
So the experiment continues.
••• Below appears much of the Independent Marketplace's press release:
The Independent Marketplace was borne out of the intention of creating a safe, neutral, family friendly space where the Monterey Bay's most curious and progressive residents commune to support local entrepreneurs and community causes.
True to its namesake, The Independent Marketplace is open only to local makers and entrepreneurs promoting predominantly hand and locally made products. It is about the people behind products,....about the "why's" within the "what's,.... and about a re-connection of the concept of "value" with "values."
Amid our message of ecological sustainability (through commitments to the offset project), cultural sustainability (through our series of featured nonprofits), and economic sustainability (through our support of the local food shed and local makers), we are now faced with the test of forecasting our own sustainability.
While the Marketplace has been widely popular, it costs several thousand dollars each month to produce. Vendors pay fees that proportionate to their sales, but these fees recover only 15% to 20% of the total cost to produce each event. The resulting shortfall has been covered by The Orosco Group, owners of The Independent, since the event's inception. This gesture was intended to allow more money to flow through to our partner nonprofits through a suggested minimum $5 donation by every attendee.
While we were happy to meet one half of our goal with the $2,200 that we raised Henry Miller Library at our first event for, community giving has waned, not grown over time. And while the exposure we have afforded our nonprofit partners has left them elated, our last event raised only $124 in donations. What was intended to engage guests in the spirit of giving and participation has slipped into a form of free entertainment... which was never our intention. But this observation is by no means an admission of failure... what has happened within the Independent Marketplace is something far more rewarding than we could have ever expected. What started out as "an experiment in food, drink, art, and culture" has also become an experiment in community.
Within the raw, unfinished walls of The Independent, and Sand City's surrounding industrial landscape a common feeling can be found on the First Thursday of the month... an energy is growing... and a community is emerging. The people vendors who populate the Independent marketplace are invited not only because of the strength of their products, but because of their passions, their intention, their desire to share a message about living connected lives. The same is true of our numerous nonprofit partners, our volunteers, and now, our guests. Those who have attended The Independent Marketplace have often observed that it offers one of the first and only examples on the Monterey Bay where families, singles, kids, and seniors can engage one another comfortably and enthusiastically, and where people from all walks of life - across all race, socio economic, even sexual preference profiles - can mingle and celebrate seamlessly.
Perhaps the most memorable praise we've received to date was from an elder member of our emerging community who observed that "the feeling of community here is the way things should be". We agree. We believe that the Independent Marketplace itself offers a tremendous benefit to the community in leading by example. The Independent Marketplace is chiefly about one thing: sharing... sharing our time, our resources, our knowledge, our relationships, our attention, and our enthusiasm for one another. We call this 'social capital'. It's our tenement of sharing social capital that is building our community. We are building a mission-driven community that is open to anyone who wishes to participate.
But without a calculated change in our funding structure, there will be no next month, let alone next year for The Independent Marketplace. In response to the widespread enthusiasm we've observed The Independent Marketplace has applied for fiscal sponsorship under the umbrella of the Action Council for Monterey County while we seek our own 501c3 nonprofit status. This move follows the same model that nearly all markets both here on the Monterey Bay and elsewhere use, wherein a combination of civic, state, and sometimes federal grant money is paired with local sponsorship, donors, and community participation to fund a public event.
Amid this long term change, we face two short term choices: 1) to close The Independent Marketplace while we wait for grant money to come in, or 2) to allow our community members an opportunity keep the Marketplace alive by help pay for the event. In November we will returning to the $5 donation that we requested at the outset of our The Independent Marketplace by selling tickets to the event. Admission to the event will cost $5 per person. Kids under 15 will continue to attend for free, and students who present a student ID will pay only $3 to attend.
Though we've seen between 2,000 and 1,200 guests per event, we will cap ticket sales at 1,000 tickets. We'll offer a $10 ticket that comes with a free drink, saving $1 for anyone who wishes to enjoy any of our standard $6 drinks. In future months, premium VIP (Very Independent People) tickets will entitle guests to enjoy additional benefits such as private tastings, curated gift baskets, and pop up dinners. We expect that the November 1st Independent Marketplace will sell out, so those who wish to secure a spot at our event can purchase tickets online before the event by visiting www.sandcityca/independentmarketplace.com.
With ongoing cuts to our budget and an increasing number of volunteers, artists, musicians, and community groups partnering with us to donate their time, it remains our short term goal to fundraise for our featured nonprofit. As we move toward this goal, our commitment is that 100% of net proceeds after expenses will be donated to our featured nonprofits. We want to remind guest too that the $5 ticket price reflects the minimum suggested donation. During this season for giving thanks, we encourage everyone who attends to throw a couple of bucks into the donation jar and give freely with their pocketbooks as well as their hearts.
We're terribly thankful to have enjoyed such support and eager to prove that the Independent Marketplace is worthy of survival.

She is now the bestselling author of nine novels, as well as frequent speaker on topics ranging from fiction writing to reinvention. Claire Cook's latest book, Time Flies, is an epic road trip filled with fun, heartbreak, and friendship, and explores what it takes to conquer your worst fears...so you can start living your future.
"The exuberant and charming Claire Cook is one of the sassiest and funniest creators of contemporary women's fiction," according to The Times-Picayune. People Magazine says her writing "goes down as easy as it sounds," Good Housekeeping calls it, "laugh-out-loud," Redbook "gleefully quirky" and the Chicago Tribune "funny and pitch perfect." The Today Show featured Claire as a "Today's Woman."Past Lectures: Author Brian Cassie presents Collecting and Identifying Local ShellsThursday, May 9, 7:30 pm

34th Annual Snow Row Saturday, March 2, 2013Race Start: 12:00 noonRegistration: 10:00 - 11:00 amLocation: Windmill Point Boathouse, 185 Main Street, Hull, MAFee: $20 racers; Spectators free
Sliding Seat Rowers - Rules as of 2012HLM's signature-rowing race, the Snow Row, covers a 3 3/4 mile triangular course starting off the beach at Windmill Point, continuing around Sheep island, past the Peddocks Island day marker, and back to shore. Huge crowds gather on the beach beside the museum's Windmill Point Boathouse to share in the wild, LeMans-style start, unpredictable weather, and one-of-a-kind gathering of gorgeous boats and athletes. Entirely within view of the Boathouse, the event is as much of a thrill for spectators as for participants. A Harbor Express high speed ferry, with boarding at Pemberton Pier, follows the race course, affording spectators an even closer view of the event. It is also a rare opportunity to see, up close, rowers of all ages and their stunning array of wooden pulling boats -- peapods, dories, wherries, whitehalls, ocean shells, kayaks, pilot gigs, captain's gigs, and Irish currachs. Youth and adult crews and rowers from all over New England, New York, and along the East Coast will join them. The race has five boat categories: workboats, livery boats, coxed boats, ocean kayaks, and ocean shells. A few notes to all race participants: 1) all boats must carry PFDs, bailers, and whistles, 2) all coxed boats must pre-register and begin the race bow on the beach, and 3) the HLM Race Committee reserves the right to cancel the race or keep individual boats from setting forth due to weather conditions or rower skill level. After watching the excitement of the Snow Row's one-of-a-kind start, come to the Lifesaving Museum, a mile from the boathouse, which will be open throughout the day with free admission. For more information, please contact Lory Newmyer or Ed McCabe at the Hull Lifesaving Museum, 781-925-5433 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Liffman Challenge Route MapInitially conceived as a local warm-up for the World Championship CRASH-Bs in mid- February, the CRASH-Bobs has taken on a life of its own, now attracting dozens of hard-corps pain seekers to Hull in the deepest depths of winter. The day's ergometer races come in many shapes and sizes, and include both 2000 and 5000 meter pieces, as well as relays and sprints for distance. Individuals and teams compete in race categories that recognize the very young (we had one six year old), the more "mature" (82 is our age to beat), and those of all emotional ranges in between.The centerpiece of the day is the notorious Liffmann Challenge, a biathlon combining rowing and hill running. The course is comprised of a 5000-meter erg pull immediately followed by a 2.5 mile run or bike sprint through Hull's hilliest neighborhood. Drop-ins are welcome for the individual events, but those participating in the Liffmann Challenge must pre-register by phone (781-925-5433) to reserve an erg seat. Contact Ed McCabe for more information about the Bobs or to reserve a seat in the Liffmann Challenge.2013 CRASH Bobs Results2012 CRASH Bobs Results2011 CRASH Bobs Results2010 CRASH Bobs Results

As many as 60 boats jockey for position racing out the narrow estuary and onto open water, traveling from West Corner (on the Hingham/ Hull/ Cohasset line), past Bumpkin Island, across Hull Bay, to the museum's Windmill Point Boathouse at Hull Gut. A highly contested 5-½ miler, the Weir draws coxed youth and adult rowers in gigs, single and double livery and workboats, currachs, and ocean shells, as well as experienced kayakers. In the "head of the river" format, boats kick-off the starting line at one-minute intervals, and times are collated at the finish to determine the race winners. The Weir is an exceptionally exciting race and a great spectator event, featuring over 150 of the region's finest rowers from all over New England and New York. Best spectator views are from the bridge on George Washington Boulevard (10-20 minutes after the start), at the tip of Hull's Sunset Point, or at the Windmill Point Boathouse finish line. Spectators should show care crossing the road on George Washington Boulevard, watching for fast moving traffic.Registration, required for all participants, will be 9:30 am - 10:30 am at the race starting line behind the Hull Public Works building at the Hull Town Line on Route 228. The coxswains' meeting is at 10:45 am, and race start at 11:30 am. All coxed boats must contact the race organizers before the day of the race. There is no parking available at the race starting line; the put-in for trailered boats is at Nantasket Pier, one mile from the starting line, where car and trailer parking is available. For more information or questions about participating, call Ed McCabe, the Hull Lifesaving Museum's Maritime Program Director or Lory Newmyer, Executive Director, at the museum (781-925-5433). 2011 Head of the Weir Finish Order 2011 Head of the Weir Results by Category2010 Head of the Weir Finish Order2010 Head of the Weir Results by Category

Google TV receives (much needed) upgrade
If at first you don't succeed...
Posted in Media, 28th October 2011 22:35 GMT
Watch Now : Virtual Machine Movement with Hyper-V
Google has announced a major upgrade to a product that has fallen flat on its Googly face: Google TV.
"The initial version of Google TV wasn't perfect, but launching it gave us the opportunity to learn," Google's VP of product management Mario Queiroz and director of engineering Vincent Dureau co-wrote in a blog post [1] on Friday.
"These are still early days," they added, "and we're working hard to move forward with each update." Early, of course, is a debatable term: Google TV was unveiled [2] on March 20, 2010.
But we have no reason to doubt Queiroz and Dureau's good intentions – at first blush, the update does indeed appear to be an improvement over the fussy UI with which earlier versions were lumbered.
A new content browser promises to make it easier for you to find something to watch (click to enlarge) [3]
In addition to a cleaner interface, the new version adds access to the Android market. Well, a quite limited selection of apps in the market, at least.
"Initially, the number of apps won't be large," Queiroz and Dureau admit, explaining quite reasonably that apps which require a touch screen, GPS, or telephony won't be available. They do promise, however, that "50 developers have seeded the Market with cool and useful apps for the TV."
Those would be the developers for whom Google released [4] Google TV templates, guidelines, and a UI library for its Chome–meets-Android Google TV operating system this February.
They also promise that the new interface will make it easier to search "Live TV, Netflix, YouTube, HBO GO, and more," and that a new browser called, appropriately enough, "TV & Movies", will let you peruse 80,000 films and TV shows on "cable or satellite, Netflix, Amazon, YouTube, and many other sites."
What you won't be able to watch is any web-based content from ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, or Viacom – the first three blocked [6] Google TV access to that content last October, Fox joined the lockout [7] in November, and Viacom followed suit [8] later the same month.
But for the content you can watch, the new UI has new help. You can now, for example, turn "virtually any topic" on YouTube into its own channel.
The upgrade will be rolled out to Sony Internet TVs [9] early next week and Logitech Revue [10] TVs "soon thereafter".
A cynic might dismiss the entire upgrade with a deck-chairs-and-Titanic metaphor, but as described by Queiroz and Dureau it does appear to be a welcome upgrade for Google TV fans. Both of them. ®

That was the word today from Craig Tucker, Klamath Campaign Coordinator for the Karuk Tribe, as he explained why he, the Karuk Tribe's Vice Chair Leaf Hillman and commercial fisherman Dave Bitts, of Eureka, are suing the California Department of Fish and Game.
They filed suit in Alameda County Superior Court this morning. The complaint alleges that the DFG is illegally using taxpayer's money to run its suction dredge mining program — which litigants say allows hobby miners to dredge in places "known to be critical habitat for endangered and at-risk species such as Coho salmon, Pacific lamprey, and green sturgeon," according to a news release.
DFG was court-ordered to rewrite its suction dredge rules to reflect knowledge of species that were listed for protection after the current rules were written — and it was supposed to have completed the California Environmental Quality Act review process and changed its regulations by June 20 of last year.
That didn't happen. DFG said it hadn't the money to do the review. The tribe and others tried legislating change; the governor wouldn't sign it. Two weeks ago, the Karuk Tribe and a commercial fishermen's group and others petitioned DFG Director Don Koch to write emergency regulations restricting dredging. They wanted that to be contingent upon the State Water Resources Control Board's granting half a million bucks to the DFG to do the CEQA review. The money was granted but the petition was rejected.
Thursday evening, DFG spokesperson Jordan Traverso said that, legally, the DFG couldn't impose emergency regulations based on the criteria the petitioners offered.
So now there's the lawsuit. Said Craig Tucker on Thursday by phone:
We're seeking whatever remedy we can now. If we have to file lawsuits we'll file lawsuits. This is phenomenally important to the Karuk Tribe. And for those guys not to step up and protect these fish, I just can't tell you how disappointed we are.
He added that, with all the talk of cuts in state government, the program for "3,000 hobby miners" might be a good place to start.
By 5 p.m. today, DFG Director Koch's office hadn't been served with the lawsuit, said Traverso, and so they weren't ready to comment on it yet.

That EXACT same thing happened at the edge of my neighborhood a few years back - same kind of fence even. Had 3 cops standing around trying to figure out what to do (doe was still alive but with two broken legs). My hunting buddy pulls up, tells the cops to turn their heads, and puts the doe down with a pistol shot. Sad thing about it was the when he took the deer home to harvest the meat, he found that she was eaten up with cancer inside. That was probably the reason she couldn't clear the fence in the first place.

Reminds me of that picture of a moose that was floating around a while back... some folks were stringing electrical wire or something or other.. had it stretched out on the ground, then pulled it tight onto the towers.. caught the moose just perfect and lifted him by his antlers.
At least that was the story. I'm not saying it was or wasn't true.. just saying it had to be a one in a million thing... |

Several shots in to the second magazine he got lucky, then got back in the car and drove off. Every one of us lost some I.Q. that day.

The hero of the Mario series and Nintendo's mascot. Mario is armed with familiar attacks including Fireballs a Spin Attack and a yellow Cape used to deflect items.
The princess of the Mushroom Kingdom is armed with attacks taken mainly from Super Mario Bros. 2, including vegetable throwing and the ability to hover over short distances. She can also attack with a golf club, tennis racket or frying pan, based on her other playable appearances.
The King of the Koopa turtle tribe is a slow but powerful fighter with a range of claw and horn attacks. He can spit fire and uses a Ground Pound attack borrowed from the final battle of Super Mario Bros. 3.
Mario's dinosaur friend can eat opponents, turn opponents into eggs, throw eggs and Pound the Ground. He can also transform himself into a egg and launch himself across the screen.
Luigi's attacks are mostly the same as Mario's, but with a few subtle differences. His fireball is green, he can jump higher, and instead of a cape he has the unpredictable Green Rocket attack.
