That store is breaking policy by not saving all of them. All Best Buy's should be holding all Wii's until Sunday, they're even marked this way when they come in. Bogus? No. We have to meet minimum numbers for Sunday's ad to avoid bait-and-switch lawsuits. So if anyone is to blame, it's lawsuit-happy consumers, not the stores. Plus, this approach levels the playing field for people trying to get Wiis. I don't understand why you all are still whining about consoles being held until a Sunday.Originally Posted by BSDeez16

lol umm you don't understand because its right in front of you. customers want it now. we don't care about the ads, they shouldn't be putting the ads out in the first place, they should be selling the consoles immediately.Originally Posted by Kryptenx
You have a good point, but you gotta understand where people are coming from. the ads are not released until maybe a week before? Dude, its just annoying, having people camping out and not getting anything and then having a launch in nov and oh yea we not selling all on nov 19 just a couple, we are holding them all off for another month. then why didn't they just make hte launch this coming sunday/monday? lol.
actually the good part of all this is they held it close enough to xmas so parents didn't have to worry about hiding it.
Yeah, I hear it is supposed to be crazy. Now that the Wii is outselling the other game systems, everybody and their dog is wanting one.
This is actually going to make it harder to get one. As the date nears, I am starting to read more and more about it.
Whats a Wii?! I don't know, but I want one!

I think you're a tiny bit confused. They(retail stores) sold all they received on November 19th. At max, they're holding Wiis for 4-5 days. Trust me, it's not a "let's stockpile weeks worth of Wiis for 7 Sundays from now".Originally Posted by savoirvivre
I know where people are coming from though, but Sunday ads do give everyone a pretty good chance.

Dear Members of the University of Rhode Island Campus Community,
We, the Diversity Week Planning Committee, wish to express our gratitude to you for your support of URI Diversity Week. In 2009, attendance at Diversity Week was 3800 for 60 events in 5 days. A recent survey of graduating seniors indicated that 50% had attended URI Diversity Week during the course of their matriculation, ranking behind only community service (57%) and internships (53%) as experiences common to URI students.
During 2009, we are pleased to continue our relationship with Lifespan as a co-sponsor. Lifespans focus on preparing and recruiting a diverse labor force in the allied health professions.
We ask for your continued support and feedback as we embark on a number of significant changes to our model in our efforts to improve the educational impact and to enhance assessment. First, you will notice that we have codified the events, distinguishing between events recommended for classroom credit, and events recommended for personal growth and enjoyment. Events recommended for classroom credit have been judged to have a component based on reflection, those intellectual and affective activities in which individuals engage to explore their experiences in order to lead to new understandings and appreciations.(Boud, Keogh, and Walker (eds.), Reflection: Turning Experience into Learning. London: Kogan Page, 1985, pp. 18-30). Boud, Keogh, and Walker propose three stages in the ideal reflective process: a) returning to the experience: recollecting the salient features of the experience, recounting them to others; b) attending to feelings: exploring positive and negative feelings about the experience; and c) reevaluating the experience: associating new knowledge and integrating it into the learners framework. However, the codings are simply recommendations which faculty are free to utilize as they see fit. Second, you will begin to notice a gradual transition toward recognizing the importance of learning outcomes as a means of affirming the contract between diverse learners in the university.
If you have any questions, please email email@example.com to let us know. Enjoy the week!
Dr. Judy Van Wyk (Co-Chair)

Verizon LG Spectrum Video Review Part 2
A new year means new 4G LTE devices on Verizon! Aaron takes a look at the LG Spectrum , and it has a pretty decent feature set. Rocking a 1.5 GHz dual-core Snapdragon CPU, Spectrum packs a 4.5-inch IPS HD (720p) display, 8-megapixel camera with 1080p HD video recording capabilities, a front-facing camera, 1,830 mAh battery, and Android 2.3.5 with LG's custom UI.

Book Description:For decades, health care providers have worked as though there were a monolithic wall dividing the ailments of the mind from those of the body. Theorists on either side developed separate languages and philosophies to explain symptoms. This distinction has left many clinicians unable to treat successfully patients whose symptomssuch as headaches, conversion paralysis, and seizuresarise from the place where mind and body meet. In this book, the authors describe a powerful narrative therapy, one that relies on the wisdom and everyday language of patients' real-life stories instead of the expert knowledge and professional language of the clinician. This approach can be used across all categories of somatic symptoms, from factitious ones to medical illnesses such as asthma or migraine headaches.The authors show how somatic symptoms are often related to unspeakable dilemmas, as in the case of a child who, after discovering a parent's marital infidelity, is afraid to disclose the secret and begins having blackout spells for which a neurologist can find no physiological basis. These dilemmas can be understood only if a clinician creates the kind of relationship in which privately held stories of fear, shame, and threat can be told safely. Detailed case studies and numerous brief examples vividly illustrate techniques for helping patients escape the dilemmas that bind their bodies by finding new language and stories that can free them.In an innovative section, the authors rethink the current ideas and practices of psychopharmacology. Rather than treating" a brain disease, a clinician uses medications to recalibrate brain systems that register alarm, thereby opening new possibilities for therapeutic change through speaking, listening, reflecting, and relating.This book offers all clinicianspsychiatrists, social workers, psychologists, nurses, physicians, and family therapistsa way to use language to help patients resolve bodily symptoms. It avoids the stigmatization that patients and families so often experienceand the frustration clinicians feelwhen struggling to find answers for mind-body problems.

On the sex tape: "I actually came to New York City on a trip that was already booked and planned to promote our new timeslot, 8pm on Spike for our show on Impact, and also pump our Super Bowl of wrestling, Bound for Glory. All of sudden, out of nowhere, this tape gets released and it was game changer. I had options, stay home, tail between my legs, not come up here, but that's not me. It's not my deal. If I did something, I'm accountable, and if I didn't do it I'll tell you the truth. That's who I am, good or bad. So I'm here brother."
On how his kids are handling it: "I don't want to say good, but okay. They have been through a lot. They were in a household where there was a lot of crazy stuff going on, and when I went through the divorce and I tapped out, and I don't do crazy anymore, they still love their mother; they still have to deal with a lot of crazy stuff sometimes. They are used to stuff being pretty intense. With the accident my son had and everything like that, there has been a lot of stuff that has made them grow up real fast. Thank God Brooke is 24 and Nick is 22 because something like this, some people can just listen to one side of the story. Like when they were 10 and 12 they may have only listened to one side of the story, so thank God, they know who I am and what I am about. And my new wife doesn't have anything to do with media or the entertainment business. All this ridiculous sex stuff happened before I even met her. Because if it happened last week or last year, I would tell her. That's what I do, I step up. If I did something, I did it. If I didn't, it's not true. I'm not releasing a tape for timing reasons to promote a pay per view bro."
On the tape's release: "About 7 months ago some pictures leaked out, so right away I figured out there was a camera in there. No one cares about the "woe is me" story that's all so what. Everyone in here has a woe is me story, whether its parents, problems, girlfriend, money, woe is me, no one cares. That's so what. What matters is, what now? But what now is, I'm accountable, I'm the guy there. But there is a woe is me story, which nobody cares about. The woe is me story is, Bubba and Heather they were married, were my friends. Heather was always a great mother, always kind. Bubba was always my best friend. And they liked to party, which had nothing to do with me. But all of a sudden, about two years before the incident, Heather started saying, "Hey, I want to have sex with you" "I want to party." I was just like "yeah right, whatever." Nice compliment for an old guy like me. But Bubba was cool too, "Hey man it's okay, it's okay!" and he admits it wide open. And so this went on for a couple years. And the woe is me story is, all time low, when I was living at the big "Hogan Knows Best" house with my sons precision driving team, and my wife was really unhappy with the marriage and pretty much told me she didn't want to be married to me and whatever goes along with that. So I was at an all time low, and I was with Bubba when we went back to his house and this offer was thrown at me, and I just said to hell with it. And that's the "woe is me" story, which doesn't really matter because I made a bad choice. And the thing that is so disturbing to me is that I have been defending Bubba across the board. Because I asked him, "Where did the camera come from?" "I even asked you because I know you have security cameras in your house; you're not filming this are you?" He was like "No, I would never do that to you, how dare you insult me." When the pictures came out, I said "What's up! This was on your watch?" and he said "Oh, it must have been Heather that did it." It's crazy dude. You got to stop this. Up until the day before yesterday, when I was coming up here and they released part of the video, I told Bubba, they showed part of the tape and if they show it all, this has totally destroyed my life again, flipped it upside down. I need to know. I don't want to insult you, but I need to know if you had anything to do with this. Because it's not just you, me, and Heather, but your son Tyler is on the altar too, he is on the chopping block. I don't want his dad to go to prison or his dad to lose everything. And I said, "Did you have anything to do with this?" and he flat out denied it and said he wasn't going to lawyer up. So I just got some disturbing news, and I haven't seen the tape yet, but I got people like TMZ saying Bubba was in front of the camera saying he can use this for a retirement if he ever needed to. That's why I am rattled, but bro; I am not releasing a tape or doing anything. I did not know the cameras were there. I just told my attorneys do whatever you have to do criminally, civilly; I still won't believe Bubba is not my friend until I see the tape. I haven't seen it yet, but I've had people tell me they have seen it. Probably one of the worst days of my life yesterday. It's been a tough ride, but I'm here to promote the pay per view. If you were going to bring that up and say anything about a tape you had to let me talk."
On Austin Aries as TNA Champion: "He crossed the line, he came in fighting for a contract in the X division and talent speaks for itself. I watched him, he had a little NWO vibe to him, a little Macho Man vibe to him, and very talented in the ring. Right away, I said everyone keeps one upping each other, and all of a sudden Austin is showing us this crazy new level that we need to function on all the time. He raised the bar. So right away, when there was an opportunity for Austin Aries to be the champ, I was like I really hope everything works out perfectly with him and the belt. And so far, he has really stepped up and changed the look of TNA all of a sudden. He got himself over; he really stepped up and got himself over... (Continues on next page)

Alarm sound stops. Vacum and temp settings work.
What is this alarm about?

Hello Wes,
The STOP signal and beep are usually accompanied by another message.

Carribean Jerk sauce
I was looking for a BW3's wings sauce recipe and found this, it a clone recipe to mimic their Carribean Jerk wing sauce. I have to say it tastes nothing like BW3's sauce but it's good. I put it on some smoked chicken soft tacos last night, awesome! I can really see putting this on beef brisket, pork and fish, I might even try it on some wings. Give it a try. It really wasn't to spicy my wife actually could eat it and liked it. Carribean Jerk
Tablespoons margarine 2 Tablespoons minced onion (white and light green parts only) 1 Cup water 3/4 Cup ketchup 1/2 Cup plus 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar 1/4 Cup apple cider vinegar 2 Tablespoons white distilled vinegar 2 Tablespoons Frank's cayenne pepper sauce 2 Teaspoons ground black pepper 2 Teaspoons Worcestershire sauce 2 Teaspoons lemon juice 1-1/2 Teaspoons cayenne pepper 1 Teaspoon dried parsley flakes 1 Teaspoon cornstarch 1/2 Teaspoon salt 1/2 Teaspoon garlic powder 1/2 Teaspoon dried thyme 1/4 Teaspoon onion powder 1/8 Teaspoon ground clove 1/8 Teaspoon ground nutmeg 1/8 Teaspoon ground allspice 1/8 Teaspoon rubbed sage Cooking Instructions: mix and cook |
Sounds great, I'll give it a shot. :thumb:
How much margarine?
OK thanks!
Good to see somebody still calling it BW3's!

Buried Treasure Aller Ease Allergy Relief -- 16 fl oz
Very effective.
About 3 years ago my mid-20's daughter began to experience severe allergic reactions to springtime and fall pollens. After extensive online research and trial and error of various products, we stumbled upon Buried Treasure's Aller Ease and ordered it from Vitacost (BEST price!!) in the early part of 2012. She began taking the maximum dosage and within two weeks she experienced great relief without any side effects. Within time she tapered the dosage and now only takes a maintenance dosage. Since then, my seventy-five year old aunt heard us talking about Aller Ease and asked me to order it for her. She has realized the same positive results, and I have place multiple orders with Vitacost on her behalf. This product is palatable and truly effective.
October 22, 2013
the best
I have severe ragweed allergies that exacerbate my other sensitivities, and I really suffer until the first killing frost. I've been using Aller Ease for one week and am absolutely thrilled! I feel great, my symptoms are mild rather than debilitating. I've tried every 'natural' solution I could find for a decade, and have never recommended a product before but this really works!
August 14, 2013
An excellent natural produt that works
I love this product because not only is it natural, it is a natural product that works. Even during high pollen count days it helps me out a lot. When I would take over the counter medications their effect seems to diminish over time this doesn't and is fast acting.
May 22, 2013
Awesome Product
I've been using this product for years now. This is one of the best natural products I've found to treat your allergies with. AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME is all I can say. Vitacost has the best price I've found on it; so much cheaper than the health food stores. Thank you Vitacost!!!!!
January 17, 2013
Great for seasonal allergies
My family and I have terrible allergies. Aller Ease really helps with the symptoms and shortens the length of allergies. My 8 year old nephew and my 61 year old father both use it it as well and have seen great results. It will not prevent or get rid of your allergies but it really helps!

This morning, I referred to F.A.S.T. Ride, the latest song release off Yelawolf's Trunk Muzik Returns, as, "the kind of sh*t you'd blast at trunk-rattling volume from the bridge of your personal starship." That, of course, raises a follow-up question: what will R&B-lovers be vibing out to a few hundred years from now? Booth newcomer mdnt (pronounced "midnight"), a Brooklyn-based purveyor of what he calls "future soul," offers a potential answer in the form of new promo single Dreamcatcher. Released along with artistic official visuals by Colin Kelly, the record finds the Sing Off alumnus showcasing his plaintive falsetto vocals over an atmospheric synth backdrop by SmarterChild. Love Me to Death rhymesayer Jez Dior contributes guest bars. This joint is unattached to any forthcoming project, but those who like what they're hearing can keep their browsers locked for all the latest from this promising up-and-comer.

Moving in Memphis
And then Hudson points out the woman that had stepped in during our interview, Director of Marketing and Customer Service Alison Burton. He guessed at 25 years, but she points out it's 30. "I'm in the retirement program," Burton laughs.
"I think it's a pretty good job," Hudson says of why people stick around at MATA. "We do what's right. We try to, anyways, so they stick around."
As for Hudson, he jokes that retirement is always in the future for him. "Actually my contract ended last year and they extended it another 15 months," he explains. "The mayor, when I met with him, we were kidding, and I said with the new governor coming in I'm sure there are some changes and all and he actually agreed to the extension. The only thing he asked was just make sure that when I decided to leave it to give him some notice." He adds, "So I felt pretty good about that."
Growing with Memphis
Assistant General Manager of Administration Tom Fox has been with MATA for 20 years and was doing consulting before coming to MATA. He says when coming to the transit side, he had to shift the focus that roads should be a last resort and should be building sustainable development patterns. "That was a pretty big shift for me," he says.
"Folks are in that old mentality of we need more money to build more roads to open up new areas for development farther out," he continues. "I think we make a pretty good case for what we do. You see it at the national level with Congress. It was going very much toward transit, and then with the latest election you see it flipping back, wanting to go back to the old ways."
In Memphis, Burton says the city has gone through a big growth period. "Our downtown community has grown, and we would like to think we've been a part of making it happen because we're able to connect people.
"They can leave their cars and hop on the trolley or walk or bike." She says, "It's been slow for Memphis to get into those environmental things, but we're really getting in to all of those things right now – more environmentally conscious." She stresses, "And that puts MATA as a major player in that."
"We want people in the downtown to be able to park their car," Hudson says. "We've accomplished that." With the terminals on each end of downtown, people park their car, hop on the trolley and ride along the trolley line.
Another example of helping to make Memphis more sustainable, is helping to provide service to special events at the Fed Ex Forum. Hudson says, "They said we have no parking and people wouldn't park here, but a major components of all of that, they pulled all of that together with MATA.
"It was funny, some of the people in the outlying area never rode the bus, rode the bus in and we were kidding about it, they didn't even know you push the back door, you just hit it and it opens up. They didn't realize it, so they're just standing back by the back door," he laughs. "But they had a wonderful experience you know and that was getting them involved in public transit.
"All the things that we do and all the things we're involved in, I can't give it justice because there's just so much," he continues. "Sometimes we start at 6 o'clock in the morning time. Eight o'clock and we're still here."
Hudson says they're really proud of the Main Street Riverfront and the Madison Street Trolley. "We transport about a million people a year around." He continues, "It's only part of a plan, a regional rail plan. The next corridor is hopefully going to be downtown to the airport. That has not gained any momentum in the last couple years, and that really may be because financially, it's a sore state right now; they have other priorities instead." He adds, "It's not dead at this point, but it will take some more work."
Current Projects at MATA
At this time there are a number of projects the people at MATA are focusing on – a new transfer center, new timetables, an intelligent transportation center and a short-range transit plan. Speaking of the projects they're working to accomplish, Hudson adds with a laugh, "One of the other goals was dedicated funding, and I think that's by the wayside."

Cass Elliot of the Mamas and the Papas' Dress, 1967While the Mamas and the Papas were defining a lifestyle for their fans to emulate, Cass Elliot was redefining the concept of beauty. There's no doubt that with her rich, vibrant contralto, vocally she was the strongest member of the group. Most critics, however, focused on her size. While Cass may or may not have internalized all of the attention paid to her weight, she gave every appearance of being comfortable in her skin and is a seminal influence in the movement towards destigmatization of obesity. In 1966, New York magazine wrote about Cass, "She is a star, not despite her weight, or because of it, but beyond it." Courtesy of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum

Hi, I am really hoping someone can give me some advice.
I am at my wits end right now, my daughter is now 14 months old, since she was born she has always had a tempter. But now she cries 2-3 times a night, she screams and cries throught out everyday.. I am going crazy with this. I have 2 boys and they are so good rarely cry unless there fighting over something.
Ive takin her to the dr. she hasnt gained any weight since her 6 month check so he sent her for blood work to see if something was wrong with her, tested thyroid, iron, sugar levels ect. ect. EVERYTHING came back normal. So all he could tell me was that she has night terrors.... BUT she is like this ALLLL day long....I dont know what to do anymore. Nothing dramatic has changed in our lives in case anyone was wondering. If anyone has gone throught this you will understand how stressed i am getting about this... Please help, advice or anything welcome..
I also try to nuture her as much as possible when she is in her "crying" state but she just kick, flips and screams more i pretty much have to leave her and let her come to me..

4.00 rating Pros and Cons by My3Boys on April 1, 2011
Pros: I love how modern the style and pattern is - the picture doesn't do it justice. The seat reclines so my newborn can use it and it sits up so my 16 month old can use it (not that he does regularly, but he has sat in it). Snack tray has a nice well in it so when it swings the snack doesn't end up on the floor and the snap on toys are cute. |

The Cottage design has been conceived to offer our guest a big and brighter open space and also to let them enjoy the very pleasant oceanic breeze constantly present in this part of the island. Blue Ocean Cottage is located in Silver Sands area in the South of the island of Barbados and it is formed by 7 different apartments of different dimensions and positions. All of them are with dining / living / kitchen area fully furnished, bedrooms and private bathrooms. The entire area is surrounded by a wonderful garden rich of Palm and Banano trees, vegetation and flowers; it has a fence around the property and security video cameras. At the ground floor in the back side of the property there is also an external shower and between the 2 units there is a covered condominium washing machine which is possible to use it at a small supplement. In front of the property there is also a big parking area.
All the Apartments are next to the stunning Silver Sands Beach at the southern tip of the beautiful tropical island of Barbados. Being the easternmost of the windward Caribbean islands, the tropical heat is always tempered by the constant gentle north-easterly Trade Winds, cutting down on mosquitos and making Silver Sands one of the best spots in the world for windsurfing and kite surfing.
Blue Ocean Cottage provides a unique combination of fun and relaxation: suffused by the immediate beauty, peace and tranquillity of a palm-fringed paradise; yet close to the buzz and excitement of great clubs and restaurants at nearby St. Lawrence Gap.
Blue Ocean Villa, Yellow Bird Apartment, White Coconut Studio, Sea-view Apartment and Green Garden Apartment are perfect for wind/kite/body surfers who want to enjoy world-class surfing at Silver Sands beach or Silver Rock beach; lovers who want to laze on tiny unspoilt coral white sandy beach; anyone wanting to de-stress and get fit.
Local wind and Kitesurfing Informations: This island is a windsurfer's and kite surfer's mecca. It's one of the best windsurfing spots of the world. East and North-east winds are constant during the entire year and with them they bring great waves for jumping or riding them with a kite or windsurf board. The incredible spot's number aloud all levels of wind-kite surfers to enjoy this magic place. South Coast is better for experts, professionals and people who are starting to move on the reef. West coast is better for beginners.
The water temperature is unbelievable, 26°/28° C warm and constant all year round. During the period of November and June the Trade winds start to blow constantly and between December and April the conditions are absolutely perfect with a very high percentage of strong and constant winds mostly in January and February. The best spot is absolutely Silver Sands beach!
NOT many words to say... our guest reviews reflect how we are and what we do. We wait for you in our little portion of Paradise!

Cheap ski holidays in hundreds of ski resorts worldwide.
As you may be aware from a news piece posted in the summer the International Olympic Committee (IOC) are considering adding Slopestyle to the 2014 Winter Olympic in Sochi. This has been partly fuelled by the success of the Halfpipe over the past three events but also by the desire of the snowsports community to see snowboard and freestyle skiing's ever popular discipline included.
With this in mind it appears that one of the most influential figures in world snowboarding and co-founder of the TTR World Snowboard Tour, Terje Haakonsen, has written to the IOC to discuss the state of slopestyle and the effective implementation of the spectacle within the next Winter Olympics. One of the reasons this open letter is so newsworthy is due to Terje's past, as he famously boycotted the first ever Winter Olympic Halfpipe event back in 1998 after the IOC handed control of the event from the snowboarder-run ISF to the skier-run FIS.
It now appears the hugely influential character wishes to work with Jacques Rogge, the President of the IOC, to bring Slopestyle to the world famous event as successfully as possible.
Letter to the editor:
As the Olympic slopestyle/snowboarding discussion is peaking, it is time to cast some light on this defining topic for the future of competitive snowboarding. This upcoming weekend, the ski federation FIS introduces slopestyle to their program, on the same weekend as the best slopestyle riders are competing in the Dew Tour. And the IOC is about to decide if they will include slopestyle in the next Olympic program or not. Some remarkable events have taken place in the last year. Let us recap:
After the extraordinary TV rating success of the Vancouver halfpipe contest, top cats from the IOC and NBC saw the potential in expanding the snowboarding program at the next Olympics. Seeing the golden boy Shaun White go double at the next winter Olympics (Sochi 2014) would be a ratings wet dream. In the fall of 2009, USA, Canada and New Zealand had prepared a proposition for the ski federation FIS's annual congress in Turkey, June 2010. The idea was to prepare slopestyle for the 2018 Olympics by introducing it at the FIS Snowboarding World Championships, as the IOC requires two successful World Championships before considering new sports for future games.
By then, the FIS delegates were euphoric at the hysteria that followed the snowboarding events in Vancouver. They decided to speed up the process, bypassing the existing requirements, by submitting an application to the IOC immediately – before slopestyle had been tried out at a single FIS world championships. It is reasonable to imagine they felt confident that the IOC would react positively to this application.
The only problem was that IOC had a lot on their plate at their next meeting, in Acapulco in October. The most disturbing topic was women ski jumping; a nightmare for the Olympic movement. Women ski jumpers have been fighting for years to enter the Olympics, but have faced serious opposition both within FIS and the IOC. Many believe women ski jumping (including members of the sports media) does not have enough participants, is low on quality and does not have the necessary international reach as a sport to be a credible Olympic event. Women ski jumpers had sued the IOC before the Vancouver Olympics for discrimination, but were ruled against by the Canadian legal system.
Allowing snowboard slopestyle (as well as twintip ski halfpipe and slopestyle) before solving the women ski jumping issue probably made the choice impossible for IOC. Rather than accepting some applications from some sports and denying others, they made one statement for all: We will wait and see the quality of the sports at the upcoming world championships. FIS has several world championships coming up this season, among them the Nordic Ski World Championships in Oslo, the Snowboard World Championships in La Molina, Spain and the Freestyle World Championships in Deer Valley and Park City.
The only problem about this from a snowboarding perspective is that neither Molina nor Deer Valley/Park City had planned for a slopestyle! Even worse, Deer Valley actively bans snowboarding on a general basis and they do not have a terrain park. In Norway, where the snowboard federation is independent of FIS, and are part owners of the TTR/WSF World Snowboarding Championships in 2012, this whole situation culminated in a public debate. IOC executive board member Gerhard Heiberg admitted that IOC wanted to check out more than just FIS events when deciding upon the quality of slopestyle. As FIS did not have slopestyle on their Olympic program, this opened up for a new scenario in the debate: if the IOC could look at non-FIS events, could they also approve these events as qualifiers for the Olympics?
Everyone working with top level snowboarding contest knows how much the date conflicts in Olympic qualifying years is hurting the sport. This has been bad before, but in 2013, when riders are qualifying for both halfpipe and slopestyle, it has the potential to be a nightmare. And this is the fundamental problem of competitive snowboarding: it will never reap its full potential before the Olympic issue is solved. Snowboarding is not a 4 year cycle event. It is a daily operation where progress is happening in all corners of the world – summer, winter, spring and fall. At the moment, the Olympic halfpipe finals is only good for the podium winners, the IOC and the broadcasters. It does not help the sport as a whole.
The potential for date conflict is the most apparent problem. This was cruelly exposed when FIS all of a sudden decided to include slopestyle on the program at the La Molina Snowboarding World Championships – a mere two months before the event! This was obviously a move to impress the IOC before the slopestyle decision was made, but it was not a good move for the sport: the slopestyle contest in Molina happens on exactly the same dates as the Dew Tour stop in Killington. All Dew Tour riders, being the best slopestyle riders in the world, have been already committed to these events, meaning the FIS World Champion in slopestyle (and in halfpipe for that matter) will be crowned without the best riders attending.
Competitive snowboarding has fantastic potential. Right now, judging formats, slope design, prize money, TV production/distribution and rider services are progressing fast in TTR, X Games and Dew Tour events. These are the best events in the world. But they are outside the Olympic family. As the organizers as the biggest winter sports event in the world, we believe that the IOC holds a corporate responsibility for ensuring a workable solution for the sport. This will not only realise the potential of the sport, but also fast-track the quality of snowboarding contests at the Olympics. All of us, including event organizers, FIS, IOC and federations, should find a solution for the better good of the sport. Otherwise, the riders will be the main losers. They will be forced into making impossible choices between conflicting events in 2013 – on any given weekend throughout the season.
We believe a good solution could be a common Olympic ranking, not sanctioned by FIS or TTR, but a joint ranking list based on results from the best events in the world. By embracing this, the IOC would take a credible position for the youth of the world and take charge in the ongoing action sports revolution. We are willing to talk to find a good solution for the sport. But we are also willing to keep fighting for snowboarding like we have done for over a decade. The Olympic system for snowboarding is wrong; preserving the status quo is not an option.
Terje Haakonsen Henning Andersen Owner and organiser of The Arctic Challenge
First of all I would like to say a huge thank you to everyone involved in last nights event. Thanks to everyone who turned up, bought raffle tickets and took part. Thank you to everyone who sent us prizes or donations. Thank you to Tim Warwood for a very entertaining evening. Thank you to the Kings Arms for letting us take over their pub and hosting us. Because of all these people we have managed to raise a staggering £1200 for Snow-Camp.
So, for those of you who missed last night, it was a hugely successful night. 15 teams of friends, colleagues and fans of the charity turned up ready for an evening of fun, and helped make for a cracking night.
The quiz kicked off a little later than expected, though this did help us sell a few more raffle tickets and the extra beers drank helped the excitement build. Tim arrived with his usual humour and charm and started with the Brummie banter pretty quickly. There were a couple of hiccups at the start with the mic not working but we quickly found Tim's ability to project his voice added to the entertainment.
We started off with a potato sculpting round, giving everyone a spud, a knife and some cocktails stick, where they had to produce a themed scene by the end of the evening. The quiz questions were maybe a little more difficult then anticipated but this didn't cause too many issues, as easy quizzes can be boring and Tim was selling answers at £1 a go - topping up the night's fundraising.
The music round went down a treat and included some great movie tracks, from Velvet Underground in Juno, to Happy Gilmore. After two hours of questions, music and guess the celebrity faces it was time to judge the potato round. Now the content of this round wouldn't make it past the Iglu firewall, so just imagine what a room full of adults, in good spirits after a drink or two can come up with.
The quiz had been a good laugh and it was time to give away the prizes in the raffle. We started off with the T-shirts from Ski Big Three, some CD's from Virgin Records and some DVD's from Whitelines, building up the anticipation of the main prizes. Next we had the Oakley goggles to give away, the jackets donated by Metrosnow.co.uk and to finish off the skis from Ski Big Three. Having tickets in two colours caused some comedy confusion. We had a few comedy cases of people screaming and shouting in excitement at winning a prize only to find out the ticket was the other colour!
All in all the evening was a hit, we've raised money for Snow-Camp, entertained our crowd and have already had requests for the next one. A few weeks of hard work have paid off and it was more than worth it. Once again than you to everyone.
We will put the evening's photos onto the Igluski Facebook page shortly and if you would like to donate head to our Just Giving page.
Over the past couple of weeks I have been organising a charity pub quiz with fellow iglu-ite Esther Collas, in an attempt to raise money for a London based snowsports charity.
The Charity
Snow-Camp are a youth charity that offer disadvantaged inner city kids life skills programs and the opportunity to ski and snowboard. As keen snowboarders we were keen to give these kids the chance to experience the sports we love.
Esther - "I was lucky enough to put on my first pair of skis at the age of 13 when I went away with school. At 19 I turned to the dark side (snowboarding) and have never looked back. Not everyone has the opportunity to ski and snowboard and are not as fortunate as myself. Snow-Camp are able to offer this opportunity and I wanted to play a small part in helping someone fall in love with the sport as much as I did."
The Quiz
The idea for the quiz came from wanting to offer something in exchange for donations rather than begging people for money. Esther is taking part in the Everest challenge, where she will join Snow-Camp and other fund-raisers in covering 150km of the Portes du Soleil in 48hrs. The challenge will include snowboarding to every corner of the ski area, a night session and finishing off with a 5 km hike. We are aiming to raise at least £1500 and don't worry the money raised won't be paying for the snowboarding trip, all the participant's pay for that themselves.
The Entertainment - Tim Warwood
You may recognise Tim from the TSA's snowboard films he did with the Lockdown Projects, his MC-ing at the Freeze Festival or the X-Fighters in Battersea. He also has a Kerrang radio show and presents for Freesports of Four and the Extreme Sports Channel. For those who are not familiar with Mr. Warwood his is very entertaining and big supporter of UK snowsports.
With Tim's enthusiasm, humour and charm the evening will go off with a bang, so far he has requested a round involving potatoes and toothpicks (any ideas what these are for please comment below).
The Prizes
First of all we would like to say a big thank you to everyone mentioned below for their generous prize donations and support, to Tim for his quiz master skills and to Richard Downes, the CEO of Iglu who is going to contribute generously.
There is also a rumour that our head of I.T. may have secret prize for us, but when I.T. are involved anything can happen!
Last but by no means least the good chaps at the Kings Arms, where will be hosting the evening, are going to give the winners of the quiz a round of drinks and maybe even some nibbles to get us through the evening.
If you haven't been invited and would like to come give us a shout on the IgluSki Facebook page to find out if there are any tickets left. Wish us well and I'll let you know how it all went next week.

I have just installed the latest version of PhotoPost and asked it to integrate its style with vBulletin (3.5) and use vBulletin's user groups. There seems to be some problem with the communication between the user accounts and PhotoPost, however, as when I click on the "Admin" link (which I am assuming takes me to some sort of admin panel where I can tweak settings), it takes me to a login page, but after I login as admin, takes me right back to the gallery's home page. It would also not let me upload photos, either when I am logged in as admin or as a user, saying that I do not have permissions to do so. How can I get into the administration pages?
Thank you.
Thank you.

Undersea robot captures rare deep-sea eruption
Science buffs got an early Christmas present when rare video was released showing a spectacular undersea volcanic eruption deep in the Pacific Ocean.
The West Mata volcano sits nearly 4,000 feet below the surface of the Pacific in an area bordered by Fiji, Tonga, and Samoa. It was discovered in May by scientists with funding from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the National Science Foundation. Lucky researchers managed to catch high-definition video of the eruption with the help of a remotely-operated underwater robot named Jason.
Jason's cameras captured masses of lava bubbling up into the cold … Read more

The U.S. government shutdown won't dramatically harm business or consumer confidence – unless it drags on for weeks, three economists told the Observer on Tuesday.
But, they said, even a shutdown that ends quickly will have a variety of impacts, from slowing the processing of some mortgage loans to creating uncertainty for companies that rely on government contracts.
Mark Vitner, economist for Wells Fargo Securities
Don't look for the shutdown to dissuade many consumers from spending, Vitner said. Although it's not uncommon for wrangling in Washington to affect consumer and business confidence, "typically economic activity doesn't fall off anywhere near as much as these confidence indices come down."
"Very few people actually make any decisions based on the government shutdown," he said. "When we look at what the actual impact's going to be on the full economy, it's extremely minimal."
Still, he said, some sectors could see an immediate impact. For instance, he said, the processing of government-backed home loans, such as those guaranteed by the Federal Housing Administration, could be slowed by the shutdown, affecting the housing market. FHA-backed loans make up about 15 percent of the home-purchase market.
"With mortgages, it's probably not going to make much of a difference if it's a day or two," he said.
But, he said, a weeklong shutdown could clog the processing of loans. "Some deals might fall through."
A report released Tuesday showed continued strengthening in the Charlotte housing market, as prices rose 7.6 percent in August from a year ago. A slowdown in the process of FHA-backed loans could be a drag on the local housing market.
There could also be delays in the processing of U.S. Department of Agriculture loans, Vitner said. Lags in that process could especially hurt rural areas, which tend to receive such loans, he said. Charlotte-area counties that might feel those effects include Anson, Chester and Lancaster.
Conventional mortgage loans, such as those bought by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, aren't expected to be affected by government workers being furloughed, he said.
But the shutdown could hurt local governments expecting grant dollars, Vitner said, adding that there could be delays in getting those funds.
Stuart Hoffman, economist for PNC Financial Services Group
Hoffman said the impasse that led to the shutdown weighs on business and consumer confidence at a time when confidence is already fragile thanks to uncertainty over the effects of the health care law.
"It isn't helpful," he said of the shutdown.
Business confidence has improved from the depths of the recession, he said. But the costs associated with the health care act create questions for small businesses at a time when many owners are troubled about weak sales, he said.
An index that measures optimism among small businesses fell 0.1 point from July to August, according to the National Federation of Independent Business. The report's results were mixed, showing job-creation plans rising at a level not seen since before the recession but also increasingly negative expectations for improved business conditions.
Hoffman said he doesn't expect the shutdown to severely harm the economy, "unless it lasts longer than any one ever has lasted." The shutdown is just a "warm-up act" for the deadline later this month to raise the U.S. debt ceiling, he said. By the time the debt ceiling issue is resolved, the shutdown should be over, he added.
Harry Bowen, economics professor, Queens University of Charlotte
Bowen said the bickering in Washington is making businesses uncertain about the future. As lawmakers continue arguing about the health care act, other important issues are being overlooked, such as those dealing with free trade, he said.
"What's going to happen to all these other items on the agenda?"
He also said the shutdown could harm businesses that have federal government contracts.
"I may worry that there will be delays in payment or the project itself may be put on hold," he said.
When businesses are uncertain about the future, he said, they tend to be more conservative in their outlook.
"The range of possible outcomes widens so much that very bad outcomes become more probable," he said. "It just becomes more difficult to judge what the direction of the future might be."

A Night With The Psychopaths
The film Seven Psychopaths is certainly a unique one—a neo-western, achingly funny comedy with about as much gore as the entire Hostel franchise. Director Martin McDonagh told Style.com at the film's Cinema Society and Hugo Boss-hosted screening in New York last night, "I wanted to explore my love of American cinema and to question our fondness for violence and to question cinematic violence." And how did he get such a strong ensemble cast? "I knew Colin Farrell from In Bruges. Sam Rockwell and Chris Walken and I did a play a few years ago, and Woody Harrelson I knew from ten years back from the bars of Dublin," he said at the Chelsea Cinema as cast members including Rockwell, Walken, Michael Pitt, and Abbie Cornish (pictured) made their way down the red carpet. Castmate Amanda Warren revealed of the on-set experience, "They were all so funny, you knew when you were together on set you were going to get a real ab workout."
Although knee-slapping gore fest Seven Psychopaths is certainly a conversation piece, with the general election just a few weeks away, politics were the topic of the evening at the No.8 after-party a few blocks away, where the cast members were joined by the likes of Gerard Butler, Mariska Hargitay, and Julian Schnabel. Scarlett Johansson, arm in arm with artist Domingo Zapata, received praise for her speech at the Democratic National Convention. "Thank you so much. I was scared," she admitted. Blythe Danner, taking a break from canvassing in Pennsylvania to support her longtime friend Christopher Walken, sported a Vote for Obama pin. "I almost like politics better than acting," said Danner.
A Conversation With Moon's Duncan Jones
"Yeah, that's pretty much unavoidable," admits Duncan Jones. "But on the other hand, I don't mind." The subject Jones is addressing is a surprisingly un-touchy one: The director is set to release his debut feature, a sci-fi flick about a man floating alone in space, and certain Major Tom allusions seem inevitable, given that Jones' dad is one David Bowie. But Moon, starring Sam Rockwell, stands up to the "Space Oddity" comparisons that have run amok since the film screened at Sundance earlier this year. A taut thought experiment on the vanishing separation between technology and humanity, Moonis a far cry from the whiz-bang escapism of Star Trek, a movie Jones admits he enjoyed. For that matter, the film is also a far cry from the work Jones was previously best known for, the controversial "Fashion vs. Style" ad for French Connection in the U.K. Moon is, however, perfectly in keeping for a man whose college thesis was entitled "How to Kill Your Computer Friend: An Investigation of the Mind/Body Problem and How It Relates to the Hypothetical Creation of a Thinking Machine," and whose dad is, well, David Bowie. Here, Jones talks to Style.com about Twitter, Helium 3, and a computer named Gerty.
On the surface, Moon is a movie about a guy who, at some uncertain point in the near future, is overseeing the mining of the moon for a source of green energy. But really, the film is a meditation on self. Which part of the story came to you first?
Really, the whole idea for the film came out of my wanting to work with Sam Rockwell. I met with him about three years ago to discuss another project, which was maybe too ambitious for a first feature, and as we were chatting we began talking about the kinds of movies we both loved. There was this period of science fiction filmmaking in the late seventies and early eighties—films like Outland, Silent Running, Ridley Scott's Alien, where these blue-collar guys would be thrown into alien environments, and you'd watch them try to maintain their humanity. Or you'd see how their humanity starts to be eroded away. That was the kind of film both Sam and I wanted to make. So, I left that meeting and immediately began thinking about Moon.

Fast delivery to Australia through their new couriers (previously slow). Disappointing they still don't have the VIP card. I shopped exclusively at Merlincycles prior to the axing of the VIP card.
