Thanks and it appears from your photo site (very nicely documented I might add) that you did a really nice job on her. I built a stitch and glue Cats Paw 10 last year (a nesting dinghy) for my sailboat … it turned out great, stores in half the space and each section weighs less than 50 pounds so easy to get on and off my sailboat. Was a joy to get the inflatable back in the garage and off the foredeck…. Bob

I'll keep you posted. I suspect I'll have to put a clear coat of varnish over it, as I already scuffed it a bit bringing it over the rail of my sailboat. It maybe needs something harder on the outside, but it's fun to experiment. It certainly seems to be waterproof.

Panthers Auctioning Off Old Stadium Logos
What, you think you're cool because you have a Fathead on your wall? Well, if you REALLY want to impress people, the Carolina Panthers have an offer for you!
On Monday the team offically put up a set of three 19-foot by 34-foot vinyl Panther heads that up until recently were on the back of the scoreboards at the team's stadium.
If giant logos aren't your thing, maybe the Panthers can interest you in a 6-foot by 17-foot section of the vinyl wall cover from just above the field. And if THAT isn't your bag, maybe you're interested in 5-foot by 6-foot section of a wall mural from the team's weight room that was subsequently signed by all the members of the 2011 club.
With the team having updated its logos, everything (except the mural) were no longer needed around the stadium and so the team decided to auction them off, donating the proceeds to cancer research and the local Children's Hospital.
So that's something. Bid today?

Baze Ready for First Derby Ride
Tyler Baze, the 2000 Eclipse Award-winning apprentice jockey, will make his maiden ride in the Kentucky Derby this year aboard Indian Express.
Tyler Baze, the 2000 Eclipse Award-winning apprentice jockey, will make his maiden ride in the Kentucky Derby this year aboard Indian Express.
Phil and Sheva Chess' Indian Express, a fast-closing fourth in the San Pedro Stakes last time out, will make his next start in the Santa Anita Derby (gr. I) on April 5, trainer Bob Baffert said.
Benefiting from blinkers and the scratch of speedster Hombre Rapido, Argentine-bred Avanzado led from start to finish to win the $150,000 Palos Verdes Handicap (gr. II) at Santa Anita Park by more than four lengths on Sunday, covering six furlongs on a fast track in 1:07.85.
Great State Challenge Juvenile winner Crackup worked six furlongs at Santa Anita Wednesday morning on his first day as a 3-year-old in 1:14.40.
Kona Gold will try to become the fifth 9-year-old to win a stakes race at Santa Anita when he takes on eight other sprinters in the $100,000 El Conejo Handicap (gr. III), Wednesday's New Year's Day feature.
Rmisvesta worked seven furlongs in 1:26.40 Sunday morning at Hollywood Park and received the green light for the Hollywood Starlet (gr. I) for 2-year-old fillies Saturday from trainer John Sadler.
New Zealand-bred Master Belt came from well off the pace to register a 68-1 shocker in the $100,000 Morvich Handicap (gr. IIIT) on the downhill turf course at Santa Anita's Oak Tree meeting Sunday.
Longshot Special Matter, with Tyler Baze aboard, captured the $150,000 Carleton F. Burke Handicap (gr.IIT) at 1 1/2 miles on the turf at Oak Tree Sunday.
Trainer Doug O'Neill would like an invitation to the Hong Kong Sprint at Sha Tin Racecourse for his Forest Hills Handicap (gr. II) winner, Avanzado.
Avanzado proved he didn't need the lead to win Sunday at Belmont Park, running down fading pacesetting Sunray Spirit in the stretch to post a two-length win in the six-furlong Forest Hills Handicap (gr. II).
Martin Pedroza, leading rider during the current Fairplex meet at the Los Angeles County Fair in Pomona, escaped without injury following a nasty spill in the sixth race Friday, then dusted himself off and won each of the next two races.
Having one of the best afternoons in his young career, leading rider Tyler Baze won five races at Fairplex Park on Saturday, including the $100,000 Barrett's Debutante with Last Kiss.
Martin Pedroza has accomplished much in his career of more than 20 years, but he has yet to attain the world class recognition of his peers in the Southern California jockey colony.
The 33,526 fans who showed up for opening day at Del Mar got a little bit of everything Wednesday, including a Pick 6 payoff of more than $151,000 and a longshot win in one of the co-featured races.
The NTRA All-Star Jockey Challenge is set for Friday as 12 of the nation's best Thoroughbred race rider's return to Lone Star Park in Grand Prairie, Texas, for the popular four-race competition.
Race riding is in the blood of Tyler Baze, who excelled as an apprentice in 2000 while competing on the Southern California circuit.

Great little card!
Fancy Blossoms Step RSVP Postcards We got these RSVP cards as part of the Fancy Blossoms Pocket Fold package, and we were very happy with them. They were a nice weight, and the paper and print quality were better than we'd hoped for. One thing to note: we were afraid the postage might fall off of them, as the paper has a finish that doesn't foster a permanent bond with the adhesive. So far, so good, though -- so don't concern yourself too much with that, should you find yourself feeling the same way we did.
Great gift!
Fancy Blossoms Personal Stationery I sent these thank you cards as a house warming gift. They were a big hit!
Love these!
Fancy Blossoms RSVP Postcards I am in love with our RSVP cards! They turned out better than I had imagined! I am so impressed with everything Magnet Street does!
Love these little guys
Fancy Blossoms RSVP Postcards The RSVP post cards are super cute! We chose a silver/grey background with an eggplant highlight. They came out perfect, we really like the fact that it is indeed a post card, so we didn't have to purchase extra envelopes, we put out name on the front side so that people have no excuse to not send them! I mean how easy is it, as soon as they get the invitations they can just fill out the info, it already has our name and a stamp so all they do is pop it right back in the mail!

My Favorite Jon Stewart PWNS
who else should see this list?
This is far from a complete list, Jon routinely pulls back the curtain on the media, but these are some of the most memorable moments for me, personally. There's nothing better than watching someone else actually say and do exactly what you WISH you could do if you had a) the guts, b) the talent, and c) the forum. Jon Stewart is just the man for the job. These are some of the moments that made me howl with joy.
- 1
Glenn Beck
I think this could be the greatest thing I have ever seen on TV. And while I may be prone to hyperbole (I, in fact, wear a t-shirt with the word "hyperbole" on it) watching Jon imitate Glenn Beck's utterly ridiculous show was both gut-wrenchingly hilarious and also gut-wrenchingly painful. Painful, because of how many people BELIEVE every ludicrous thing this man makes up on a daily basis.BUY @ AMAZON - 2
Tucker Carlson
My loathing for shows like Crossfire and dickweeds like Tucker Carlson is really quite shocking. Never, ever quote these kinds of bulls**t, talking head, know-nothing pundits to me in a discussion unless you don't mind talking over my ranting. When Jon went on Crossfire and showed Carlson just what a f**king pretender he was... I was standing on my couch cheering through my tears of joy.BUY @ AMAZON - 3
Jim Kramer
This was stellar. I'm not even talking about when Jim came on the Daily Show, but really, the whole thing. The perfect ripping down of the curtain these guys stand behind. I just wish that there were more lasting repercussions when Jon reminds us that the Emperor wears no clothes. Sadly, nothing much ever comes from it except the fleeting satisfaction of watching someone else say just what you want to.BUY @ AMAZON - 4
- 5
Sean Hannity
This was not as satisfying as some moments, just because Hannity oozes so much sleaze every time he talks that I find myself smoothing down the hairs on my arms every time. He apologized, but he did it with such winky smugness.... really, his only defense... that it just made me kind of irritated that he didn't rise to Jon's bait. I know that he knew better than to give us what we wanted ( a showdown with Jon that he would certainly lose ) but it was still kind of good to see him forced to say anything at all.BUY @ AMAZON

It seems to me that bridging the gap between 6.0 and the current system is simple - each judge awards two marks of 0.0-10.0 (now that figures are gone, 6.0 is an anachronism); in each set, throw out the high and the low, and add up the remaining 14 numbers.
One problem with the old system is, nobody even bothered to explain it. When there was a flip-flop, it was usually explained with a term like "in the crazy world of figure skating scoring." I actually shelled out for a USFSA rulebook back in 1992 just to find out how ordinals were calculated (nowadays, it would be a free download from ISU). It was as if casual fans were treated with a pat on the head and "Don't worry your pretty little heads about the scoring; just watch the skating and we'll look behind the curtain and tell you who's in what place." (Of course, it was impossible for the fans to figure it out on their own (except for pairs) before, what, 1983, when, rather than scoring each segment separately, a judge's ordinal for a skater would be based on the combined scores for that skater, so we would have to know the scores for every skater on every compulsory figure.)
Then again, I don't remember fans turning away in droves from women's gymnastics after FIG got rid of the "perfect 10" system...
One that helps skaters understand where they are being rewarded and penalized.
It's just this. Every time an article like this appears saying that casual fans don't like the CoP, the Internet explodes with a thousand reasons why they should.
But they don't.
Seriously. They don't. There is no reason to kill the messengers, like Christine Brennan.
I don't think so. It's not the details that are different, it is the whole concept.Is there any way to do both at the same time?
By the way, do you agree that, in the World Championships just concluded, Kim Yu-na's 6.0 style program was far and away the star of the show and in fact, saved the event pretty much single-handedly?
It would also help if they could get a commentator who knew what the hell he was talking about (I'm looking at you, Peter). During the ladies event he was raving about a skater's lutz (Murikami's?) and saying how awesome it was and how it was just like Yu-Na's blah blah blah. Then they showed Yu-Na's in slow motion, clearly a lutz, and the other girl's in slow motion, clearly a flutz, and Peter never acknowledged the flaw nor the fact that the flutz would get a lot less points than Yu-Na's lutz.
Stuff like this is what leaves the casual fan all .
ETA - I watched a gymnastics event on tv recently. I am a very casual fan of the sport - in fact, I found the event because I was channel surfing. The announcers did an excellent job of explaining some of the faults and flaws, and the differences in technique and how they effected scoring. I was impressed and remember thinking at the time that US skating announcers should take a page from their book.
I'm surprised that you found them to be informative. NBC's broadcasts of gymnastics is considered to be absolutely horrific by gymnastics fans. In fact, they prefer figure skating commentary from what I've found.
Also, gymnastics fans have been very turned off by the way the code has changed their sport, and many prefer to watch NCAA. The artistry and attention to flow and lines and basics is certainly dying in that sport despite high difficulty. It may be more precise, but it's not as fun to watch. There's something to be said about presentation. Back then, the gymnasts just presented their skills that just impressed those in attendance (you'd hear gasps). Now, someone can do an insane skill but it's just not the same because the gymnasts are not taught how to present anything and they are simply too busy to.
Amen. Dance used to be my favorite discipline behind men -- the best skaters, the best artists and really original material in the only discipline where the skating had to be fully intertwined with the music. No one stopped to spins, the lady did the twizzles as they fit with the music, lifts were meant to accent the music, and speed and depth of edges and partnering skills (at that speed) were what set the teams apart. Now it's all about who can do the most gymnastic entry into a curve lift, who can twizzle 50 times in a row as fast as possible in unison (don't forget with a crazy blade grabbing position!) and who can pretzel tighter in a "dance spin." I'm still WTF over a "dance spin" - something that was non-existent until the ISU mandated them in 1999. Leave the pair spinning to the pairs.
I literally can't watch dance any longer. I mean, in 2002 I sat through every compulsory dance at Europeans in Lausanne - that was back when there were still 2 compulsories and it went on all day for like 7-8 hours. In Zagreb this year, I went sightseeing during the short dance and went to see the Zagreb Symphony during the free dance.
Using both to springboard.........how soon we forget. I'm going to use G&P, icedancers, as an example. We loved to hate them in NA. They fell, they were boring, they had an attitude, you name it they had something we hated.
But think if they skating now, how we'd view them under COP. They were fast, precise, excellent timing, and they lost points for x,y and z, but still won. Deservedly so.
I lament the fact that under the old 6.0 skaters like the above were vilified. There was no good reason for it except that we could not figure out what the judges were marking. Now we could. And I was never a G&P fan, altho I could recognize their skill. How nice it would be for *them* to get the recognition that they probably deserved in the skating fandom world. The old system certainly rewarded them, but the cost was high. Now under the new COP system, we might rail at the marks like we do now, but at least we do have a chance at understanding why someone wins. We might not like it, might not like their skating style, but now they do at least get some semblance of respect. Bring on COP, keep the old 6.0.
This would certainly make it simple to explain what happens to the numbers. Some pro competitions used exactly this procedure.
In the late 90s, before IJS was on the horizon, as a thought experiment I tried to analyze what would happen if 6.0-style scores were added up instead of using ordinals.
What I figured out was that if judges gave scores exactly the way they had been, including the tiebreakers, and then the high and low technical scores were dropped and the high and low presentation scores were dropped, in close contests it was possible to get a result that disagreed with the rankings of a unanimous panel! That to me was a deal-breaker for that kind of number crunching. In those cases it would be more accurate not to drop the high and low scores.
If we gave the judges ways to come up with meaningful technical scores and meaningful presentation scores each on a separate scale and not used to balance each other out, so that judges were not ranking skaters but scoring their technical content and scoring their presentation, then it might make sense to add up the scores.
Essentially that's what the TES and PCS do, in much finer detail.
So as a compromise maybe we could have a single score for technical elements, one for basic skating quality, and one for artistic impression, and add them up. Or break some of those down a little further, e.g., one score for jumps, another for spins, etc.
I definitely agree with you about the media's inability or unwillingness to explain ordinals either.
So either the ISU needs to decide that they're not interested in catering to fans, or they need to find ways to make a skater-centric system friendlier to fans. But a fan-centric system is not going to work for the sport as sport.
Maybe something like replacing the exhibition with a fans'-choice competition after the technical event would allow fans to engage with the results of an event featuring their favorite skaters who qualified through the technical. With real official medals to make it meaningful as a performance contests. Probably wouldn't be accepted by the IOC. And which fans are able to vote on the results (the location of the event, or which locations have access to live coverage) would significantly bias the results.
I was not able to watch the ladies' programs straight through and still haven't seen all of them, so I'm not in a position to answer that question.By the way, do you agree that, in the World Championships just concluded, Kim Yu-na's 6.0 style program was far and away the star of the show and in fact, saved the event pretty much single-handedly?
Why: she gets paid multiple times for the same riff.
Then she'd have to write another article.
There was a fluff piece investigative report after the pairs scandal -- not sure if it was on CBC or US TV -- in which many of the judges gave a few sentences about why they voted the way they did.
In one of her books, Brennan made a big deal about the brave Czech judge who refused to bow to pressure and award the Euro title to a Russian skater over Curry. I think it was in The Second Mark that he was quoted or paraphrased as having said that he didn't vote for the Russian skater for fear of going out of the corridor, because he couldn't believe the rest of the panel wouldn't have placed Curry first, and knew he was doomed when he saw the scores and found to his astonishment that four "Eastern-friendly" judges did. That was a rare, public time a judge that there were clear ramifications for a judge, but he was punished by his federation. (Flipping that, The Second Mark made Lavoie look heroic, when in PJ Kwong's book, Lavoie wrote the letter to te ISU and faced sanctions because the Swiss judge who heard Legounge say she had already promised her vote for B/S in Fall 2001 was about to come forward.)
I lost the post about not accepting new stars, but it's the same in dance and opera in my experience, an almost palpable resentment that someone new is on the scene. It's exascerbated in ballet because there's a hierarchy and lots of, "(wuzrobbed) I'm seeing the "B" (or "C") cast because she's a corps member or soloist, not at the top rank" when they're seeing the young Kistler or Obraztsova.

"'Is this new BMW-designed sled the ultimate sledding machine for Langdon and Holcomb?' Leigh Diffey asked before the pair cruised to victory. I dont know, but I know that sled is the ultimate Olympic Games product placement.." -- Jen Chaney
One of my best memories growing up was watching skating on a Sunday afternoon on Wide World of Sports with Jim McKay and Dick Button. I remember watching dance and pairs on Saturday afternoon and the ladies skating live Saturday night and then the men skating live on Sunday. As a kid I didn't care about the scores, I just watched the beautiful skating - Jill, Tiffany, Elaine, Debbie, Todd, Christopher, Scott, Mark, Paul and Brian - such lasting memories - a whole generation will never experience this.
I think they have already decided. Cinquanta has been quoted as saying that he is sorry that fans don't like the scoring system, but he has a sport to run.
I am not as grumpy on this issue as I sound. I do not think that the IJS is a major reason for the decline of popularity of skating as a spectator sport in the U.S. I don't think the Salt Lake City controversy or the lack of a U.S. lady superstar is, either.
I do think that the IJS is a mild hindrance to marketing the sport.
It wasn't on NBC - it was on one of those sports channels that I have buried at the back end of my Direct TV listings. Couldn't tell you what channel, or even what competition, except that it was last month and it was international. I only caught the last 45 minutes or so.
I am not sure exactly what you would accept as "evidence." There have been quite a few statistical studies of which countries have tended to vote in synch in different eras. But certainly (if my poor old memory serves ) in this case the pre-Olympic buzz was that "everybody knew" that there was a four-four division in the panel, with Hoffmann holding the swing vote.
That is why all the attention afterword focused on Hoffmann's vote, even though he was only one of five who voted for Baiul.
The same thing happened in the pairs event in Salt Lake City. It was well recognized going in that there were four B&S judges (Russia, China, Ukraine, and Poland) and four S&P judges (USA, Canada, Germany, and Japan). That put the spotlight on the French judge.

As Muslims rage, churches hit Pakistan blasphemy law
- Tweet
- Share this
GENEVA (Reuters) - As a film insulting Islam prompted Muslim leaders in many countries to call for a global law against blasphemy, a major Christian grouping said just such a ban in Pakistan was used to persecute other religions.
Abuse of Pakistan's Blasphemy Law put the Islamic country's Christian, Hindu and Ahmadi Muslims in "a state of fear and terror", the World Council of Churches (WCC) said on Monday.
Representatives of those minorities told a conference on the law organized by the WCC - which links Protestant, Orthodox and evangelical churches - of mob lynchings and widespread mistreatment of those accused of blasphemy.
"In Pakistan, we are fighting against the blasphemy law and its abuse," said Mohammed Tahseen of campaign group the South Asia Partnership.
The recent arrest of a Christian girl who faced a possible death penalty for what later appeared to be false charges of burning a Koran was just one of many such cases, he said.
However, Pakistani Muslim representatives told the gathering that not only should the law stay but another was needed covering the whole world.
Their stance echoed calls from key Islamic religious leaders across the Muslim world for an enforceable international pact through the United Nations criminalizing insult to Islamic and other religious symbols.
The calls came as Muslims around the globe protested against a U.S.-made video portraying Mohammad as a fool and a womanizer. The U.S. government has criticized the film but made clear it stands by the constitutional provision for free speech.
Several protesters have died, and four U.S. diplomats, including the ambassador to Libya, were killed in an attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi in an echo of earlier Muslim protests over books and cartoons published in the West.
The 57-nation Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) has been pushing for years for some kind of global law against on defamation of religion at the U.N. Human Rights Council, currently meeting in Geneva.
Every year for more than a decade until 2010 the council - where Pakistan speaks for the OIC and often accuses the West of "Islamophobia" - passed resolutions proposed by the Islamic grouping.
But there was no chance of converting such non-binding declarations into a legal pact due to opposition from the United States, Europe and some Latin American countries which argued it would violate free speech and the U.N.'s Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
Following diplomatic negotiations spearheaded by the United States after the administration of President Barack Obama joined the council, the OIC dropped its campaign two years ago.
"It certainly looks as though they (the OIC) might use this furor over a video that everyone recognizes is stupid and pathetic to try to relaunch the 'defamation' campaign," said one Western diplomat who asked not to be named.

Abstract | We image the dynamics of diatomic and triatomic molecules with sub-5 fs and sub-A resolution using laser Coulomb explosion imaging with 8 fs pulses. We obtain image information by measuring the vector momenta of all atomic ions produced by explosion of a single molecule. We image vibrating D{sub 2}{sup +} and of dissociating SO{sub 2}{sup 2+} and SO{sub 2}{sup 3+}. Images taken at 0 and 60 fs show that the dissociation of SO{sub 2}{sup 2+} produces an SO{sup +} rotational wave packet. |

Examine some of the problems involved in identifying the characteristics of New Religious Movements.
It often can be hard defining the characteristics of New Religious Movements because they vary so greatly. Wallis provides a typology of New Religious Movements, which he says they all fit into. The first category is World Rejecting movements, which are highly critical of the outside world and often have limited contact; they are institutions that control ever aspect of the member's lives and members have to give up their normal life. World Rejecting Movements are usually sects and include movements like Krishna and Children of God. The next typology Willis provided was World-accommodating or denominations that usually are offshoots of churches. The aim of these organizations is not to create a new society, but to change views. The members are not required to change their lifestyle. The final typology of Willis' is World affirming, which are generally cults. These movements may not have a 'church' but do claim to be able to provide access to spiritual powers, also accepts the world does not have one religion and is not exclusive. World-affirming organizations do not try to convert people but instead sell a service and

Sex and Health in the Middle Ages
Several centuries ago, in the population's mind, as well as for Jewish, and the Christians and/or Muslims, everything was about religion and God. Because of this, these religious groups were fully confident about the evidence that was given to them by the "intellectuals". Supported by religion, these "scholars", even though they were inaccurate most of the time, had answers for almost everything. Since their objectivity was often affected by diverse beliefs, these savants' way of thinking became the pillars of these societies. In the Middle Ages, though medicine and reproduction were often thought to be of a religious matter directed by God, human involvement was usually acceptable (Wiesner, p.132). These subjects are good examples of what kind of fundaments were anchored in people's thoughts. Three sources, written

oooo looks really nice that Can see that going well on a couple of site I have already for facelifts on them
SYSMAN_MK (3rd July 2009)
Got any colour requests John. Plan to make a few versions but not gone that far ahead yet.
nice work mate! i really think these will look good on live sites! its nice to have a variety of templates.
Well Done!
SYSMAN_MK (6th July 2009)
Quite like the blue and white combi that your picture shows thats nice and clean. Red and white as well are good to have as well. I would envisage using it on Welcome to Austwick CE (VA) Primary School and Nursery and Chipmonks @ Giggleswick Day Nursery, Settle, North Yorkshire eventually when I decide they are ready for a facelift (chipmonks before the school as the school only went live last night)
SYSMAN_MK (6th July 2009)
Cool thats a blue and a red then. I'll be sure to include those.
Just need to iron of the fonts to use and then get some nice souls to test it for me.
john (4th July 2009)
Update - He's how it's looking with modules in place.
john (7th July 2009)
A green version might look nice.
Right have a beta version of the template that needs some beta testing. If you fancy taking a look then drop me a PM with your email and I'll send off a copy.

Looking really good Sysman. Loving the whitespace!
Wonder if there would be any interest in a 'Moodle-esq' copy of the theme? Providing SYSMAN_MK approves?
Themes are like aardvarks, you can never have too many. Thanks danIT bring it on.
ooo if you're still taking request a royal blue and yellow/gold one would look pretty with that white space I think ... nice work!
Here is what I have done so far on the Moodle Version of the theme, its currently only working correctly in FF as I have no time for IE. However before its finished it will obviously have to work in IE : )
(Mainly padding, height and margin issues in IE as always)

Elsewhere in the Parishes
With roads as narrow and winding as Bermuda's, it takes longer to traverse the island than you'd think. So it's smarter to stick with a couple of close-by sights rather than trying to cover them all in a single day. The parishes are less congested than the towns, but the area to the east of Hamilton—especially the traffic circle where Crow Lane intersects with the Lane and Trimingham Road—is very busy during morning (7:30–9) and afternoon (4–5:30) rush hours.

She would grab a slimy seaweed coated stick, toss it to the mutt and then they would battle for it. She would grab one end of the stick with the dog still attached and start swinging around like a carnival ride. I kept waiting for the dog to lose his grip and get flung out into the sea, but it never happened.
