Timers in Tournaments

Do most tournaments use timers? If so, is it enforced and how long is allowed? I am just curious. In our last season we used a 6 minute timer (we had a lot of new players) instead of the rules stated 4.
We play our games on a league night at a shop that has a closing time and we try to wrap things up.
About 1/2 of the players ignored the timers and just played. In the next season I would like to enforce 4 minute turns. Just wondering what the norm was at tournaments.

There are a few tournaments in this part of Canada that are starting to use timers, and they are somewhat stricvtly enforced. A few people will even be so disciplined as to sacrafice the remainder of their turn if their timer runs out!
Personally, I love it. As a player and as a T.O. it makes a real difference in running your tournament smoothly and on time.

Personally, I hate timers. I have trained myself, out of courtesy for my opponent, to play quick enough to get games done in a 2-hour time limit - which is a standard tourney time.
However, sometimes a turn will take longer, and I don't want to sit there and stress because the ball has bounced 17 times after I knocked it out of the other player's hands.
I have never seen a timer used at a tournament, and I would not go to one that did. Most of the time, having the tournament organizer walk around once every 20-30 minutes and letting people know how far along the game should be works just fine.
I also recommend extending tournament games by 10 or 15 minutes. It gives players a chance to greet each other and set up before the game in a more relaxed manner.

Never seen a timer at a tournie, most UK ones say in the rules pack that the 4min guideline will not be used.
However the 2hr limit is strictly enforced to enable the tournie to run to time.

In my 70 odd tournaments I saw one guy use one for a bit of laugh/gimmik and that was very recently so in general Templar72, they are hardly ever, if never, used.

Interesting feedback. Personally I play both ways, but if you havent used a timer it really changes the way the game plays. You should give it a try.
Thanks for the feedback.

Personally, I would welcome timers at tournaments, as some of my worst memories of tournaments involve opponents taking ages over turns (and I mean, say, 10-15 minutes).
As a minimum, I suggest timers should be introduced after one or two rounds for coaches who have been identified as slow.
However, there is a major problem with timing a game, which is that the non-moving player can do things during your turn. Sidestepping or pass blocking for example (but also deciding whether or not to use many skills). Now my favourite memory in this regard was an opponent who took 75 seconds to make a sidestep and then expected to ping me when the 4 minutes expired. I told him in plain English what I thought and carried on moving until I had finished my turn. But this anecdote highlights a problem - do you allow pausing of the clock for such things, because if not, you will not keep the turns to 4 minutes.
My ideal (not tested yet) would be to use a chess clock with (say) 25 or 30 minutes per player per half, and to put all time on the clock, including set-ups for a drive (this can be a big consumer of time in a tournament). So when your opponent has a decision to make during your turn, then he has to do it on his time. If you used 25 minutes (very workable in my view) you would get a game finished, including pre-match, post-match and the recording and handing in of results, reliably completed within 2 hours. And wise players would have plenty of time available for the crunch turns.
The advantage of a chess clock is that it has easy buttons and 3 time settings: coach A's time running, coach B's time running, and paused (no-one's time running). Paused would be for such things as resolving a bouncing ball after a turnover, or (more rarely) rules disputes. Chess clocks could presumably be borrowed from a friendly chess club.
Hope this helps.

I play in the same tournaments as Spazz plays. If the ball goes out of bounds or if the opponent coach has to make a decision, we stop the timer. So those turns last more than 4 minutes. We use the timer to try to keep on time, not to screw your opponent because of bouncing balls and opponents taking 75 seconds to side step.
In some cases, coaches who know that they play quickly will not bother with the timer, and the TO is usually OK with that. There are a few players in the circuit that tend to be slow, and we like to force them to use timers.
The problem that we had was that there was often one or more game that took 30 minutes to an hour more than other games. And that was not fun for the people who had to wait. And having an overall timer can mean that the coach that is facing the slow player could get screwed if the TO calls the game and the game is not finished.
We thought about the chess clock, but we haven't tried that yet, partly because we don't have any chess clocks available. Smeborg, if you try that, let us know how it works-out.

Only ever seen a clock used at a tournament once, and that I believe was because the person was deliberately trying to upset his opponents.
Smeborg's idea of chess clocks is a good one - but I think impractical for many tournaments.
At my tournament this year there is a projector, so I'll have a big count down clock running to remind people of the time left.

I may see if I can try out a chess clock in a friendly league game tonight. Depends on having a willing victim, though.

"Yeah, I'd leave before it escalated and got to that point," sophomore Shaquasia Moss nodded in agreement.
There were similar conversations buzzing between students along the track at the school during the Walk for Knowledge event on Thursday.
The event, which was sponsored by the health care classes and the HOSA Future Health Professionals Students, focused on dating and domestic violence. Representatives from the Hospitality House for Women, The Harbor House, the Sexual Assault Center of Northwest Georgia, and local law enforcement and EMS attended with different informational booths set up around the track.
Bonnie Goulding, a health care science teacher, said the idea for the event came from students who attended the Hospitality House's candle light vigil event last year.
"They were really moved by it and wanted to participate in it," she said. "The purpose of the walk is to promote domestic violence awareness. We kind of have evolved this idea from last year."
Because many events happen during the school day, Goulding said she decided to gave a more school-focused event at the school that would educate students about the dangers of domestic violence and assault. Using a scavenger hunt list of facts, the students visited the different booths and learned information about the warning signs and effects of violence.
"From the health care field, we're looking at it not just as prevention and awareness for you own sake, but in how you deal with those patients," she said, adding that police officers and EMTs talked to students about the process of responding to domestic violence situations and how they handle situations with victims.
The Hospitality House, which sponsors the silent witness program, set out silhouettes of victims who lost their lives to domestic violence in Floyd County during the last 10 years. The students stopped along the track and read the tragic stories.
"A lot of these kids have already experienced (dating or domestic) violence," Goulding said. "They've shared information and we've talked about it. This is giving them the tools they need to hopefully spot it before it happens and get out of the situation if necessary."
Freshman Mason Gilbert said it was a sad, but eye-opening experience.
"It is really sad knowing that people have to live through this every day," Gilbert said, adding that he wanted to donate to the various organizations that would assist victims.
Ashley Chapman with the Hospitality House said she and Amy Weaver, the safe house's director, were happy to inform the students and create awareness.
"We were happy to be here since it's Domestic Violence Awareness Month and we get to talk to teens about that," she said. "One in three teens will experience dating violence or dating abuse."
Kimberly King, legal advocate for the Sexual Assault Center of Northwest Georgia, said she could tell the students were taking the knowledge to heart.
"I can tell by their expressions, like, 'wow, I didn't know that,'" she said. "For instance, their preconceptive notion of the time a particular (statutory rape) offender could be in jail is five years, but really it's like 20 for breaking the consensual age law. They're definitely learning something new."
Freshmen Isabella Schitz and Hannah Van Curen said the event made them want to reach out to victims.
"Now that we see this, it makes you want to help them and give money," Schitz said.
"It's upsetting because of the stories," said van Curen. "And we're just kind of learning about the other side of life that none of us knew about and it kind of opened us up to it."

Help Eric, Baleog, and Olaf - a trio of medieval Norsemen with various talents to find their way through time and space back to Earth.
Editor-in-chief says: Lost Vikings is a side-scrolling platformer with puzzle elements and released early in the 90s for various platforms. Erik the Swift, Baleog the Fierce and Olaf the Stout are the three main characters of the game. They are three vikings who need to be guided to safety in each level. The player controls only one character at a time, but can take turns and control each one of them. The player has to perform many actions in order to guide the vikings to the end of the level. Though the game was not innovative, it was quite popular and I still remember it as being fun to play.Golden Axe 3

Editor-in-chief says: The arcade/strategy game called General Chaos is one of my favorites ever. General Chaos and General Havoc had to fight on a limited world map and to conquer the other's capital city, which is kind of similar with Age of Empires, just that this 1994 release is not so complex and takes less time. There are four total teams the player can choose from. The player sees the action from an isometric point of view and has to guide his team not only through violent battles, but also through strategic missions.Gunstar Heroes

These shoes are comfortable, durable, and stylish. I purchased these shoes (on sale) to wear while I sent a pair of Allen Edmond's back to get refinished and even though I have my other shoes back I'm still wearing these. The color doesn't last, but if you shine the shoes they will retain the leather quality and take the new color nicely.

I typically don't write review's, but I feel that I should let people know that these shoes are poorly made. I purchased these shoes on Dec 8, 2012 and it's 5/20/13 and the sole of the shoe has separated from the rest of the shoe. Additionally the uppers started falling apart at the seams. Overall the shoe is a joke and for the price they should last more than 6 months. Actually come to think of it I probably stopped wearing these shoes mid February so they really only lasted around 3 months.

I so wanted to love these, but they rubbed virtually everywhere, especially along the side edges. They are so cute, but uncomfortable.
Posted: May 20, 2013
I wear size US Men's 8, but but I had to buy size 39 in European size. Had I bought as the size chart suggested US man's 8-8.5 equals size 42 the shoes would have been too large for me. Be aware with the size conversion in ecco brand. I love ecco shoes. Eccos look nice and are very confortable.

I love Sam Edelman shoes. I have been wearing my old ones for years. I just replaced a 5 year old pair of sling backs. I decided to buy these and endeared the same size as my sling backs, but the actual length of the shoe is shorter and I felt my heels were too close to the edge. So I returned them and plan on ordering a half size larger. It's weird that my 5 yr old pair was a size 6.5 (my usual size), my new sling backs had to be a 7, and i returned these flip flops (sz 7) to trade them for a 7.5. As much as I love Sam's shoes, I wish his sizes were consistent.

Some earlier reviews recommended that you order one size up. I did this and got stuck with oversized shoes. My advice: Order whatever size you'd typically order.

Poor quality. I feel like these shoes look like they're coming apart. The color is also darker than what appears online. Definitely returning these. If you order them, they are a half size small.

a special request birthday shirt
I used the Sienna Dress Pattern by Lil Blue Boo, shortened to t-shirt length. The yellow top of the shirt is appliqued by machine, I added some blue hand embroidery to the border (you can just barely see it on Jessie's shirt, but the stitching is there), and the red swirls and number are flocked Silhouette heat transfer material.
Very Jessie, don't you think? I looked everywhere to find that swirly pattern for my shirt, but came up with nothing. In the end, I just sketched it out myself. After getting the shape right on graph paper, I traced it using a thick black sharpie and scanned the image into my computer. Then I imported the graphic into my Silhouette software and traced the outline to get the perfect cut.
You have no idea how this t-shirt has the wheels in my head turning for Halloween. Thanks to a hilarious suggestion from my husband, Ruby is going to be rocking an awesome costume this year (fingers crossed).

The Department of Police and Parking Services at UNK is a highly effective and efficient department, largely because of the close interaction and open lines of communication it has with the University as a whole. The Department offers a full range of police, parking, and hazmat/safety resources around the clock to ensure a safe environment for the entire UNK campus community.The Police division of the Department of Police and Parking Services consists of full and part-time officers who conduct area patrols, enforce federal, state, and local law, as well as UNK policies and coordinate crime prevention programs.

Sound Check: Biz Markie busy with live "Yo Gabba," among other projects
Biz Markie has been part of Nick Jr.'s "Yo Gabba Gabba" since pilots in 2006, bringing the show's youthful viewers his "Beat of the Day."
He's been doing it for the show's various live tours, too, and the New Jersey-born rapper says he loves it as much now as he ever has.
"I knew it was gonna click," says Markie, 48 (real name Marcel Hall), who's best known for his 1989 hit "Just a Friend."
"I knew it was gonna be a good show. I didn't know it was going to last this long, but it's way different than any other kids' show I ever saw. It has that old-school feel with a new-school spin."
As for the "Beat of the Day," Markie says, "I came up with that because I was too lazy to dance." But these days he's anything but lazy.
In addition to "Yo Gabba Gabba" he continues to be an active club DJ and also has a cooking show at LivingSocial.com that he hopes to take to TV soon. And he's working on a new children's TV show that he expects to debut this fall. "There's a lot of interaction with the kids and me," he says. "It's like all the old-school games we used to do in the hood. It's gonna be crazy.
Add to that an album, his first in nine years, that Markie says is "halfway done" and will mix original rap tracks with covers of songs by Elton John, Joe Cocker and the Steve Miller Band.
"I'm doing it now, doing the ground work, doing it slowly," says Markie, whose "Weekend Warrior" album came out in 2003. "It's going to be timeless. I've got a couple people (guesting) but they told me not to say their names. It's gonna be lots of fun."
Biz Markie appears in "Yo Gabba Gabba! Live! Get the Sillies Out!" at 2 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 12, at the Fox Theatre, 2211 Woodward Ave., Detroit. Tickets are $25-$45. Call 313-471-6611 or visit www.olympiaentertainment.com.

Support / Side Effects / Nail and Skin Changes
Last Modified: January 17, 2012
During cancer therapy, you may notice changes in your skin and/or nails. These changes vary based on the type and dose of therapy you are receiving. Some common changes with radiation therapy include redness, peeling, thin or fragile skin and/or increased sensitivity to sunlight. If you are receiving chemotherapy, you may notice changes in skin tone or pigmentation, very dry skin, rashes, redness, peeling, and/or increased sensitivity to sunlight. If you develop any of these problems, be sure to show them to your oncology healthcare team, as they can be signs of reactions to some medications or can require adjustments to the doses of chemotherapy or radiation. Your fingernails, and possibly toenails, may become discolored, weak, break or lift off, or develop ridges (which will grow out over time). For most people, the nail changes are temporary and will grow back to normal after some time. It may take about 6 months after treatment is stopped for nails to return to prior condition.

FISHING: Preseason trout stocking well under way
The Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP) is gearing up for the 2012 season. DEEP's Inland Fisheries Division began its annual spring trout stocking early this year, on Feb. 17 and expects to have 376,000 trout stocked throughout the state by Opening Day on April 21.
"For many Connecticut families, Opening Day is a tradition rich in memories, and the first opportunity of the season to get outdoors and go trout fishing," said Daniel C. Esty, Commissioner of the DEP. "Fishing can be a great outdoor adventure for the entire family and is one of the many outdoor activities that we encourage people to take part in.
"Connecticut's anglers can look forward to exceptional trout fishing this spring," added Commissioner Esty. "Our hatchery staff has worked hard to get another excellent crop of trout ready for Opening Day and with the favorable conditions this past winter, the quality of the trout stocked this spring will be truly outstanding."
Over 200 truckloads of trout will be distributed throughout the state in preparation for Opening Day. These trout will be released into 101 lakes and ponds and 203 rivers and streams throughout Connecticut. The following species & sizes will be stocked prior to Opening Day:
61,800 brook trout (10-11 inch)
192,600 brown trout (10-11 inch)
6,500 brown trout (12 inch)
1,100 tiger trout (10-12 inch brook/brown hybrid)
96,100 rainbow trout (10-12 inch)
16,000 rainbow trout (12-14 inch) Continued...
1,900 surplus broodstock (3-10 pound trout – all species)
700 Atlantic salmon broodstock (1-2 pound salmon)
Among the fish released prior to Opening Day will be 700 surplus Atlantic salmon broodstock. These fish will be stocked into four lakes and ponds scattered throughout the state; Long Pond (Ledyard/North Stonington) Crystal Lake (Ellington), Mount Tom Pond (Morris/Litchfield/Washington) and Nells Rock Reservoir (Shelton). Regulations for broodstock Atlantic salmon stocked in lakes and ponds are the same as for trout, except the creel limit is one fish per day. Anglers should be aware that the salmon being released this spring are smaller (1-2 pounds each) than the broodstock salmon typically stocked in the fall (3-20 pounds each) and thus may more easily be confused with brown trout.
Trout anglers looking for an early start to the fishing season can visit one of the state's fifteen Trout Management Areas (TMA). All these popular areas have been stocked this year and are open for pre-season catch-and-release fishing. TMA's are located on the Farmington River, Hammonasset River, Hockanum River, Housatonic River (two TMA's), Mianus River, Mill River (Fairfield), Mill River (Hamden), Moosup River, Pequabuck River (including Coppermine Brook), Naugatuck River, Salmon River, Saugatuck River, Willimantic River and Yantic River.
This year, eleven of these TMA's will be stocked again in April prior to Opening Day. Class I Wild Trout Management Areas (WTMA) are also open year-round for catch-and-release fishing, and are located on Deep Brook, Eightmile River, Hawleys Brook, Beaver Brook/Merrick Brook, Macedonia Brook, Mill River (in Easton), Quinnipiac River, Tankerhoosen River, and Wachocastinook (Riga) Brook. Additionally, downstream portions of six of the designated Sea-run Trout Streams (Eightmile River, Farm River, Hammonasset River, Latimer Brook, Saugatuck River, and Whitford Brook) are open year-round with a two trout per day creel limit and a fifteen-inch minimum length.
Anglers fishing the Farmington River Trout Management Area are reminded that the invasive freshwater alga Didymosphenia geminata, known as "didymo" or "rock snot", was found in the West Branch Farmington River in March, 2011. Although monitoring this spring has not yet found didymo in the river, anglers are asked to take proper cleaning precautions to avoid spreading these and other invasive plants and animals to new waters. Anglers will find information specific to didymo on signs posted along the West Branch Farmington and Farmington Rivers. Additional information about didymo and other invasive species can also be found on the DEEP website at www.ct.gov/deep/invasivespecies.
Anglers should consult the 2012 CT Angler's Guide for detailed information on specific locations and angling regulations. Currently, electronic versions of the 2012 Guide (available in both digital-book and pdf formats) can be found on the DEEP website at (www.ct.gov/deep/anglersguide). Printed versions of the 2012 Angler's Guide will become available at more than 350 locations statewide, including town halls, bait & tackle shops and other vendors selling outdoor equipment, DEEP facilities, and commercial marinas and campgrounds next week.
DEEP continues to move forward with several projects to provide additional information to anglers electronically. Since spring 2011, trout anglers have been able to access maps of some of the state's trout streams and rivers showing the many stocking and access points. Just in time for Opening Day, 2012, maps of many more of the areas stocked will be made available on the DEEP website. Additionally, bathymetric maps of a number of the state's lakes and ponds will soon be available online.
Anglers can purchase their 2012 fishing licenses directly online, or at one of the many participating town halls, tackle retailers and DEEP offices. For a complete list of vendors, visit the DEEP website (www.ct.gov/deep/fishing) or call DEEP Licensing and Revenue (860-424-3105).

So... the Suduwoodo is obviously a shiny, right. Brock's Bonsly obviously interacts with it?
So... the Suduwoodo is obviously a shiny, right. Brock's Bonsly obviously interacts with it?
It's been said that sudowoodo is not a "proper" shiny, it seems it was involved in some experiment that went wrong and made it a golden colour... but, by the end of the episode, it reverts to the colours of a normal sudowoodo.Originally Posted by EspeonShock

Eh, what the terribly hackneyed plot left to be desired was pretty much made up for by Usokki's hilarious antics. Frantically flailing about through the forest, stumbling into the bar, and such.
And Kinya's hair kept reminding me of Ichiko from the ninja school episode.

There is no escape.
I think what happened was he was trying to give it resistance to water, although I'm not sure exactly why. He was successful, but the process also gave it that golden sheen. Sudowoodo noticed it right away, got really upset, and ran away. Kinya felt really bad about it and figured out how to reverse the process, and was trying to get Sudowoodo back when Ash and the gang showed up.Originally Posted by Alopec

Gold doesn't rust so it would make an effetive shield against water (and radio waves too.)
Some people don't think it's funny that Exit 69 gets off on Big Beaver.
Okay, off topic, but with the Mudkip thing, yes, I assume it was nearly an adult, but I think Brock did make some comment that the Mudkip was big, so perhaps the Mudkip was bigger than the average Mudkip of similar age, rather than simply comparing it to babies, which would obviously be smaller.

Not really that bad an episode, I did like James' reaction to Jessie suggesting he throw Manene into the lake.
I did notice one little animation error though, when the gang first enter Kinya's house, for a split second you see the golden Sudowoodo enter with them. Anybody else spot that? I was seriously WTFing and rewatching several times to make sure.

Coolest was Sudowoodo...

Apparently, juding by the commercial I heard, that feckin awesome mecha keeps its fecking awesome voice.
This episode was pretty good. The gold Sudowoodo was cool. Jessie's fantasy with making Sudowoodo gold was kinda funny. Jessie wanting to use Mime Jr was hilarious as well as Meowth's and Sudowoodo's conversation. It was weird when Kenan tried to return Sudowoodo but hit Jessie instead. I felt bad for how Sudowoodo first became gold. The TR mecha, I have to admit, was really cool.
HEY! Keenan was Rudy (the OI Gym Leader!)!!!
Also, it's interesting Brock mentions Onix changing into Steelix........
Kenan? Seems PUSA is starting to make their dub names more similar to the Japanese names like 4Kids did (He was Kinya in the original). During the first half of the season, the dub names had no relation whatsoever to their original ones (Brianna, Jeremy, etc.). Ever since the Scizor episode, though, they've either kept the names as is or kept them similar.
What kind of song was Battle Frontier Ballad replaced with, anyways? (In spite of the overwhelming odds, I'm going to take the chance and assume it was replaced.)
(I'm going to be gone when this episode airs here, but here's the same opinion that I had 7 months ago - Standard filler saved by superb animation.)
Thank you for all the fantastic times, Serebii Forums!
wasn't really that bad.

I didnt think so. I thought he sounded like your typical cowboy-accented guy.
Not a bad eppy. I did find the boss fantasy to be truly funny, but the best would be Jessie's, so much ego involved. The part of randomly walking into into a pub was pretty funny. The town had a very western look to it, despite being in the middle of a forest.
You know, I was thinking about Kenan's voice as well. His voice sounded familiar from the 1st and 2nd season of Pokemon. He did remind me of Rudy and as well the one with the Jolteon with the Eevee battling brothers.
The episode was good, I liked it. I like the whole Western thing that was going on. Got me doing some Western voices after hearing that.
I busted out laughing of Jesse's fantasy of her Golden Sudowoodo, and the guardian or something from the lake is exactly like her.
But overall good eppie, and time to watch the next one.
This was an okay episode. This made me realize a couple of things here...
1.) I think Jessie is on some kind of high. Don't know what exactly, but she's on something.
2.) Keenan is a cuttie!
3.) Those shiny hunters...I could have sworn I saw some on AMW *shot*
And that's all I can really say, it was just a filler to me.

Newbie's first post here.
I am a WS with an IS with degenerative spine disease and wheelchair bound for about a year now and is unable to work due to constant pain and effects of multiple meds he is on. In the midst of working through mountains of disability paperwork, helping support and care for IS, frequent dr visits, and constant financial worries ... it didn't dawn on me to take a step back and breathe. It all just happened so suddenly. (IS woke up one morning unable to get out of bed.)
Last month, I had 2 surgeries and was hospitalized for a couple of days. Dr has me on a 2 month leave from work while I heal. In spite of all the pre-stocking of the pantry, cooking and wrapping up prepared plates to heat up, and making sure my IS had everything he needed before hand, I was so worried about how my husband was going to be able to take care of himself during my hospital stay. When I had just come out from surgery, and aside from a splitting migraine from the effects of general anesthesia wearing off, again...my IS was the first thing that popped into mind. (He wasn't allowed to come in until after I was deemed stable by the recovery nurses.) When I finally got to see him, my first thoughts were relief to see him next to me. But, the next morning, while I waited for our friend to pick up my husband to see me... I had my first opportunity to reflect on what we've been going through for the past year and a half. A realization dawned on me... how heavy-laden worries were and that they were pulling me into depression. I had been so caught up on trying to keep afloat with a smile on my face for my IS, that I didn't realize how depressed I was until my brain was forced to self-reflect when I was in the hospital.
Since returning back home, I began to research support groups and am thrilled when I came across Wellspouse, where I can meet new friends who share similar stories and experiences...knowing I'm not alone.
Thank you.

Re: Hello. 1st post here.Welcome to the family, Ann!
I am sorry that you needed to find us but so glad that you did. We have many illnesses to deal with but you will find that many of the trials and feelings are the same regardless of the disease. I see that you are also recovering from surgery. Please continue to have friends help with shopping and such until you are completely recovered. (I was only 3 weeks from back surgery when they said cancer to my IS so I do know.) I also used grocery delivery. In my area Safeway and Albertsons let you place an order on the computer and them deliver. It was easier for me to select things we would eat rather than relying on the judgement of a friend. I'm sure others will be along soon with more helpful input. Hugs look like this (((((Ann))))) Donita

Re: Hello. 1st post here.Welcome, Ann
Although I'm sad you've need of this place, I'm glad you found our online oasis in the desert of WellSpousedom. May you receive the support and encouragement you seek here.
Leave out the wheelchair, and that was me, 7 years ago. It took me awhile longer to find WSA, but I wish I'd known about this place then! There are many things I could say, but first and foremost, think of yourself (you'll read that in nearly every thread on this board). Also, get your local support system in place: family, neighbors, friends, church, etc. When my IS had a knee replaced, I had to return to work when he still needed help, so I set up a Lotsa Helping Hands page where folks could sign up for specific 'tasks'. I couldn't have done my job without that peace of mind. Although it was, sadly, while recovering from your own surgery, you did manage to 'see the light' about making yourself a priority. That, and posting here are very BIG first steps into becoming a healthier and happier WS. I look forward to reading more of your posts. And again, welcome. *bigolehugz* tl IS disabled with chronic intractable pain of degenerative spinal issues resulting from fall in '96, fibromyalgia, obstructive/central sleep apnea, diabetes, chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Seeking serenity with no drama and no trauma.
Re: Hello. 1st post here.Hi and welcome, Ann.
I too am a newbie and I KNOW that you and I will both find encouragement, support and lots of new online friends who will know what we go through each and every day. BRAVO to you for taking this step, which will surely bring more sanity and serenity into your life! Jodi JKG WS-53

Have you read this forum? There is plenty of negativity and complaining about the RFL and the state of the game, so let's not make out you are some kind of lone-ranger hero.No-one seems to be bothered to comment on the main part of my original post which just shows that this forum is fast becoming one just occupied by fanatics who believe that everything in the RL garden in the UK is nothing but rosy:(CM
In terms of your original post, I'm not that sure what you wanted us to comment on. It sounds like a different world tbh - even events like the FA Cup don't have some of the things like you quote, although it doesn't sound a million miles from some of the Fanzone activities that have seen plenty of sponsors stands over the years.
We know that RL is struggling for sponsors.

Foss CEO AJ Nassar announced at the Rome-Floyd County Development Authority meeting Tuesday that the company will invest $15 million and will be moving into the former Mohawk building on Huffaker Road.
Foss, which opened in 1954, is considered a leader and pioneer in the use of non-woven fabrics and specialty synthetic fibers in a number of applications. The company recycles plastic out of landfills, makes it into fiber and then brings in new technologies to offer a variety of solutions to its customers.
Nassar is a managing member of the Alinian Capital Group LLC, a Florida-based company that took over a nearly bankrupt Foss in 2006.
"We basically took this company that was a commodity player — they were a company making textiles that everybody in the country and everybody in Asia can make — and decided to bring new technology to it and become a sustainable company in the green world," Nassar said. "We tore it apart and lost a lot of money rebuilding the plant, refitting the plant, bringing new technology into the company and really taking a different direction."
He said Foss initially lost 50 percent of its business as a planned redevelopment of the company.
"I'm happy to say that the company has retired almost all of its debt in the last six years," Nassar said. "We are in a large expansion mode."
Nassar said the company was looking at locations in the Carolinas when Mohawk turned them on to the plant facility it abandoned recently on Huffaker Road.
"Rome seemed to fit well," Nassar said. "It was very important to us that it's a friendly place for our employees because we think it's very important that we keep our employees around. Turnover costs a lot of money so we wanted to make sure we selected an area where we give them a good place to raise their children."
"It is always great news for our community when we secure a new company with such a diverse customer base," said Rome Mayor Evie McNiece. "We are happy that at least 150 people will directly benefit from this positive use of a former manufacturing building," she added.
"We are proud that Mr. Nassar and his team like what they see in our workforce and overall community," said Floyd County Commission Chairman Irwin Bagwell.
Nassar told members of the Rome-Floyd County Development Authority that he just got back from Europe, where he actually started ordering equipment.
"We expect over the next 18 to 24 months to have the facility up to about 60 percent capacity, which would put us in the 100-150 (employee) range. We feel very confident with the business that we're doing, the new technology we bring to manufacturing, that we can compete anywhere in the world."
Foss will make a $15 million investment and get a five-year tax abatement but will pay full school taxes.

Perfect Down Hoody
By Har Rai
from Mt. Hood, OR
Best Uses
This jacket is by far the best down jacket that I have ever owned! It is unbelievably light and packable, and of course warm! The Pertex Quantum fabric is so compressible that it very easily and fits under a shell--I have a medium + a medium OR Inertia shell--but the fit also allows it to fit over the shell to be used during breaks.This always goes in my pack, because it is so light and compressible that there is no reason not to bring it. This combined with my OR neoplume pants and a lightweight emergency bivy, are my backcountry insurance plan.The jacket can pack into it's own pocket, but the opening in a good deal smaller than the actual pocket, and I worry about damaging the pertex material by rubbing it against the zipper teeth too many times. I also find that packing it this way stresses the zipper a bit, and can make it a little sticky. The jacket is also more compressible than the size of the pocket. For all these reasons, I bought a small OR rolltop stuff sack, and I compress this jacket and the neoplume plants in there as much as possible, and then roll the top down, essentially vacuum sealing it. I think it will last longer this way, and it also guarantees that my down stays dry in my pack.Can't imagine a better down jacket for the NW, and I definitely won't be getting rid of this one anytime soon. At 6', 170, a Medium is totally perfect.Also, it would be great if there was an equivalent OR bottom layer. Make one, and I'll buy it for sure!

Pauline Marois is cheered on by Parti Quebecois MNAs at the Quebec legislature on September 17, 2012.
Credits: STEVENS LEBLANC/QMI AGENCY
Premier Pauline Marois served notice Wednesday that separatists are now running Quebec, taking her oath to the Queen behind closed doors and stashing away the Maple Leaf during her inaugural speech.
Her new cabinet ministers also swore their oaths to the Queen in private, prior to the public ceremony in the legislature red room in Quebec City.
Marois, 63, visited Lt.-Gov. Pierre Duchesne before noon to take her oath, away from news cameras, following the lead of separatist predecessors Rene Levesque (1976, 1981) and Jacques Parizeau (1994).
But symbolic sovereigntist gestures will prove far easier than a real drive toward independence for the minority Parti Quebecois government.
The PQ was founded with sovereignty as its top priority, but Marois said Wednesday that battling corruption will be her main focus.
"The new government will impose the highest standards," she said. "As premier, I will be uncompromising in matters of integrity," Marois added to applause from her 54-member caucus and supporters.
Marois is Quebec's 30th premier and first-ever woman head of government, and one of four women currently leading a Canadian province.
She inherits the same angry students and rampant corruption that sunk Jean Charest in the Sept. 4 election but with one big disadvantage - she's outnumbered by opposition parties that don't share her sovereigntist ambitions.
QMI political analyst Jean Lapierre says Marois will have little margin for error if she hopes to hold onto power with an inexperienced team.
"Mrs. Marois can't make a mistake when she nominates her cabinet," said Lapierre, a former Liberal and Bloc Quebecois MP. "They have such a weak minority, they can't take any risks that could lead the government to be beaten quickly. So I have the impression that the bar is high for Mrs. Marois."
Opposition parties outnumber the PQ 71 to 54 in the legislature, and Marois will need support from the Liberals or the centrist third party, the CAQ, to push her agenda.
Aware of her weakened position, Marois didn't mention separation even once in her first news conference the day after the election.
But she has promised to request a meeting with Prime Minister Stephen Harper to demand the federal government repatriate several powers to Quebec in areas of language, culture and employment insurance.
It still isn't clear if she'll be able to make good on a pledge to extend French-language laws to small businesses and federal agencies in Quebec, but the economy might end up trumping her nationalist plans.
The Conference Board of Canada said this month that economic growth in Quebec is well below the national average because of high debt, taxes and fees coupled with weak investment, low productivity and stagnant labour growth.
Speaking in Ottawa on Wednesday, Tory cabinet minister and Quebec MP Maxime Bernier said Marois will have to choose her priorities.
"I won't interfere in Mrs. Marois' decisions," said Bernier, minister of state for small business and tourism. "I can tell you that I am a proud federalist and we are concentrating on the priorities of the
Quebec population and the population of all of Canada, that's the economic situation."
Just before Marois took her oath Wednesday morning, Charest handed his resignation letter to the viceroy and returned to private life.
"I am very happy this morning," said Charest, 54, who spent 14 years in provincial politics and another 14 on the federal scene.
"For me it's a new life that is beginning for myself and my family," the expectant grandfather said, adding that he would make no further public statements about politics.
"My plan is to be grandfather, not a (meddler)."
