POLICE Commissioner John Lansley says he's disappointed with the current trend of public alcohol consumption in central Honiara.
"I am greatly concerned about this growing trend," Mr Lansley said yesterday.
"With this festive season approaching, we will not tolerate this behaviour."
Mr Lansley said they will consult with the Liquor Licensing Authority, which issues licences to beer outlets, on this issue.
Police will carry out 'Operation
Clean City' to tackle the problem.

Same thing goes for full page links in a hub. If you want to impress upon the visitor the quality of a site, then this is the way to go. Something similar to a site review pointing out some strong points on the site your linking to. Hubs are topic specific. A category structure designed for the entire web does not usually fit on a hub. This seems to be a hard thing to come up with for the average person starting a hub/portal. When developing a category stucture naming strategy, take your time and think it through. This is not something you want to do over in the future. THINK KEYWORDS! Not only will this help your SE ranks, but your visitors will appreciate it as well. The words and phrases people use in a search engine are also the same words that 'key' into visitors when they see links on a page. Use common verbage and get specific. I would never use a 'General' or 'Other' category name. I would also not use something as general as 'Pets', but look for a better phrase, such as 'Your Household Pets'. But, always remember to stay on your 'theme' in the wording you use. **When you do achieve hub status, the sites you 'link to' will get a big help in the PR dept. Links from the home page can be 'awesome'... Think about this to tie it all together, do you want $100.00 per month from an advertiser for that full page ad you developed, or do you want to deposit that $5.00 affiliate check you get every 3 months...
Hey Paynt, you luv this stuff don't ya?
I like where this thread is going... Maybe you'll actually 'define' what a hub is by the time your finished. ;) Here is a little more to think about to keep the thread rolling.
This I have seen work wonders when done properly. I know of some sites which get paid nicely for these pages. I think a good example would be an affiliate link you would want to promote. If you want to sell an affiliates product then pre-sell on a good page on your site, don't just put up a link somewhere...they don't work.(usually) developed a page around a link if you use ODP data, make it your own
Very good point! I did not want to come across as anti-ODP, I have just seen way to many 'clones', especially for directory structure and category names. (too general for hubs) value of reciprocal links on vortals
Hi Tilt,
Just remember recip. links are a neccessity. You need it for ranking and for quality traffic. Don't be worried about loosing traffic, this is a mythe. Visitors are 'surfers' remember, they browse sites and compare. If your link is right next to a competitor, they will usually look at both. You need to have a better 'instant appeal' than your competitor and you will win. This comes into page copy and colors, study it! About the fact 'my link will be "diluted"' is not something to really be concerned with, though it does have a little affect. A page will many links does not have the same 'weight' as a page with few, but the 'association' you have to the theme of these other sites more than outweights the negative. Get the links... being classified as a hub reflect in the PR
Good question Haakon. But to be honest with ya, I really don't care if my PR is 1 or 10, what I am concerned with is how the page actually ranks. If it takes a 3 to get the same spot as a competitor with a 7, then so be it. I just want the placement. I really don't know if achieving hub status will increase your PR, but why would it? These are two different things is Google's algo I believe. SO, what you'll probably see is just all of a sudden your #1 for some big terms. A hub can also stand-alone
I am glad you posted that Paynt. I see many portals which do not have any content themselves, just affiliate links or plugin content, such as a news feed. I think for the success of any type of hub/portal needs to provide something to distinguish themselves from your competitor. Too many times we see just a link farm with no real content, but those sites which actually provide something usefull end up with visitors.

More than 1,600 people on Saturday filled the Collegedale Seventh-day Adventist Church and untold numbers watched a live Webcast, all to honor and commemorate both the man and the myth that was Desmond T. Doss Sr.
Awarded the Medal of Honor for heroism during the battle for Okinawa in 1945, Mr. Doss died March 23 at age 87.
His story of courage in the heat of battle is legend and has been the subject of books and documentary film.
As an Army private he single-handedly saved the lives of at least 75 men and became the first conscientious objector ever awarded the Medal of Honor. Soldiers who at first reviled this devout man who refused to carry a gun and honored Saturday as a holy day. Those same soldiers came to respect him and even asked that he pray for them before combat.
But while events more than 60 years ago made him famous, he continued to earn the respect of those he met throughout his life.
While the homily and remembrances voiced Saturday afternoon from the pulpit extolled his virtues, individuals shared stories of the friend they called "Desmond" or "Mr. Doss," both before and after the service.
"I'd known him for years," said Jimmie Thurmon, 79, of Collegedale.
She recalled how during a gathering of Medal of Honor recipients in Washington, D.C., after all the other had "gotten up to tell how many they killed, Desmond said he was the only one that did not kill but saved lives."
Being a World War II veteran herself, having served as a Navy radio operator based in Corpus Christi, Texas, Ms. Thurmon said she has marched in the Chattanooga Armed Forces Day Parade for years.
"I'd always tell the ROTC cadets in the parade to ignore the generals on the reviewing stand but instead to yell "Yeah! Doss!" she said. "He was the role model for my son who served as a conscientious participant during the Vietnam War."
Jimmy Woodfin said he "helped around his (the Doss) place in Rising Fawn (Ga.)" for about 20 years.
Mr. Woodfin described his friend, saying, "He's the most humble man I ever met in my life."
U.S. Rep. Zach Wamp, R-Tenn., said he knew Mr. Doss for at least 20 years, long before he was elected to Congress.
"I'm here today to pay respects to an ordinary man who made extraordinary contributions of duty, honor and service," the congressman said.
"Because Jesus spoke in parables, a lot of what he would do is a mystery. I don't know what Jesus would do , but one thing I do know is that Jesus would do what Desmond Doss did," Rep. Wamp said.
Fred Headrick, of Signal Mountain, said he knew Mr. Doss through working at the Medal of Honor Museum.
"He was a very religious man," Mr. Headrick said. "He told me that 'When I get up to Heaven, I'll get my eyesight and hearing back and everything will be just fine."
Always willing to work with youngsters in the Pathfinders program, an Adventist organization similar to Boy Scouts, Mr. Doss inspired generations of youth by serving as an example of a man willing to serve both God and country.
"To every little boy, instead of the warrior who goes off to war to kill, he went off to war to save," said Greg Gadd, an 11th-grader at Collegedale Academy and a Pathfinder Guide.
"It was an honor to meet him a couple of times," the teenager said. "He not just a hero to the military, he is a legend to Adventist because he never gave in once - he upheld his beliefs."
No longer a youngster, John Swafford, an Adventist minister and director of the Georgia-Cumberland Children's/Junior Youth Ministries, agreed with Mr. Gadd opinion that Mr. Doss was more than a role model, he was a life model.
"He was energized by working with young people," Mr. Swafford said. "He spent time with young people hoping to influence them to find a friend in Christ."
Kevin Costello, chairman of the Desmond Doss Council, a group entrusted with developing a museum of Desmond Doss memorabilia and controlling the public use of his character, said what impressed him most about Mr. Doss were neither the medal nor its story.
"What most impressed me was that death never scared him," Mr. Costello said. "What scared him was that others would not know Jesus."
Tens of hundreds rose in salute as the Doss' family filed into the church to the strains of "Onward Christian Soldiers," taking their place before the flag-draped coffin and the dais of dignitaries and personal friends ready to eulogize a quiet hero.
"He was an outstanding hero - one of God's heroes," said Ken Wetmore, an Adventist spokesman. "He made God proud."

For lack of $10, woman's car is towed and shift at work is lost
She tells a tale of a public housing resident caught between an unyielding tow truck driver and public housing officials who say they do the best they can to avoid towing, but will send in the tow trucks if they must.
Bok said she's lived at Elmwood Gardens for about 14 years and has had her car towed twice before. She said it's impossible to hear a horn from inside. She's used to having someone knock on her door. The only knock she had Thursday was from a neighbor to tell her car was being towed.
Rick Slyvia, general manager of Performance Towing, confirmed the $100 offer. But he said "there were some words" between the resident and the driver. He said the proper fee is $110, and the driver would have dropped the car if she had the entire fee.
Bok's biggest criticism is with Elmwood Gardens management. The manager was on hand but didn't stop the driver despite her pleadings. Dunfey said the housing does a lot to avoid towing, but managers won't get between a car owner and a driver.
Bok said she missed a shift cleaning Central High School. Later in the afternoon, she picked up her car.
"They should understand there are poor people here," she said. They need a car to go to work so they can afford medicine and food for their children. "If they come and take the car, what do they do?"

My compuer records consist mainly of French-Canadian/Franco-American marriages and the direct ancestors of these individuals in a lineage format tracing each generation back through Quebec/Acadia to France (or other country in some cases) with date and place of marriage of each couple. If your ancestors were married in Maine I most likely have a record of them. Also, if you wish me to help you with your genealogy, e-mail me and request to see my price guide.
A SURNAME listing consists of a systematic (numbered) listing of all persons in my file with a particular French or Anglicized French surname who married in Maine and traces most of them back to France similar to Eloi Talbot's volumes of Quebec. From this listing you can determine the relationship you have with others with the same name. Each surname listing or family file can vary from a single page to as many as 80 or more pages containing upwards of 4,000 marriages (e.g., the prolific families of Poulins and Roys).
A PEDIGREE consists of all your known direct ancestors as far back as records are available. Typically, for a Franco-American/French-Canadian with all ancestors that originated from Quebec Province or Acadia, this may include upwards of 3 to 6 thousand or more individuals, in 12 to 15 generations with a few tracing back to as early as the 12th century. This is a formidable task and amounts to almost a book-sized volume. As an estimate, this might cost upwards of $750. This may sound expensive, but the usual fee for having a so-called "professional" genealogist do this for you (such as at the Genealogical Library of the Church of Latter Day Saints in Salt Lake City, Utah) would cost upwards of $10,000. At the same location, a simple lineage could cost you more than $500. I began with my own pedigree nearly 20 years ago and have been doing this for many others ever since. I have also published some genealogy books and other records, some of which are still available (e.g., St. Joseph's Parish of Old Town, Maine), I have had a genealogy column in LE FORUM published by the Franco-American Center at the University of Maine in Orono since 1989. I also wrote a regular column called "French Connection" a few years ago in the Central Maine Sentinel and have spoken to a number genealogy groups on this subject. Copies of my books are at most French-Canadian genealogy society libraries both in the US and Canada, the Maine State Library, the LDS Library in Salt Lake City, some local libraries and many private individuals from Maine to California who are interested in their contents.
Another is The Franco-American Genealogical Society of York County, Maine. Their library is located in Biddeford.
Then in the Central Maine area, there is a branch of the Maine Genealogical Society known at Taconnett Falls Gen. Society located in the old Winslow town library on Lithgow St. where one room is dedicated to Canadian records, another to Maine books and records, and a third to other New England states. The library is open every Wednesday from 1 to 4 PM and every Saturday from 1 to 4 PM. Meetings are held on the third Sunday of each month. For more information, e-mail me or one of the other members/officers Fred Clark or Thelma Brooks.

UPDATE 1-Lower costs and one-off gain lift Agfa profit
- Tweet
- Share this
BRUSSELS Aug 28 (Reuters) - Belgian graphics group Agfa posted a sharply improved net profit in the second quarter, lifted by a one-off gain from closing a medical plan in the United States as well as lower production costs.
The sharpest rise in profitability came at its specialty products unit, where the group made better use of its production capacity. But one-off events resulted in a windfall of 31 million euros.
Overall, Agfa made a net profit of 23 million euros ($30.8 million) in the second quarter, up from the 2 million in the previous year.
The group said it also lowered its research and development cost by 14.3 percent and made cuts in selling and administrative expenses, leading to an improved operating profit.
The market for its high-end industrial inkjet printing products was hit by weak economies and companies' reluctance to make big investments, Agfa said.
Nevertheless Agfa expects this business, one of its growth engines, to break even in the course of 2013.

text: brian leeTark .Seems like you saw a different fight to what others saw.Anyone calling pro fighters cowards is stupid .How many pro fights did you have tark.? jacksonChisora lost to a slowed down 40 year old fighter who fought him with a torn ligament in his left shoulder, essentially using one arm. Chisora won 2 rounds….how does that make you world class?….Anybody with any sense knew that Haye saw it was all smoke and mirrors otherwise he wouldnt take the risk…thats just Haye…..4 years in the heavyweights, he fought 2 ranked fighter, barely beatinfg Valuev and losing badly to Vladimir. Its time for Haye to fight a decent fighter, not just hope that Vitali will get injured or be slowed down enough he can win….that just Haye being his usual cowardly self. just like he flopped on the floor when vladimir pinned him in the corner, I dont want to see another David Haye flop fest. If Haye just fought Solis while he was waiting around I'd be all for him getting another shot…but I want to see him face a top 10 fighter….maybe 2…why is that so much to ask?… Posted September 28, 2012 8:02 pmrenoLewis opened a vaginal wound on vitalis face. One of the most serious cuts I have ever seen in boxing, if that fight went on Vitali would have one eye left. If vitali hides behind his jab all night he will win, but if haye gets through unlike chisora did, i belief haye could ko vitali, sanders almost did it and haye is way faster than sanders. Its the only fight left to watch in HW, unless its klitschko vs klitschko. Posted September 28, 2012 5:07 pmSREDMONDVitali had ONE round where he was dominant and he did not even produce a KD during that "dominant round" he dominated Adamek and received NO return fire from the smaller boxer… Against Lewis he was bleeding like a virgin after a gangbang after 3 short rounds…. Get your ass off fantasy island it was a back and forth contest that saw Klitschko the worse for wear and ultimately pulled out due to his inability to stop right hands that left him bleeding profusely from 5 cuts…. Domination???? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Posted September 28, 2012 12:08 pmPigManEven at 41, Vitali kicks Hayes ass. hucksterCharr got stopped because cuts too. Charr felt robbed and believed he would win the second half of the fight. :shock: Posted September 28, 2012 10:51 amhucksterVitali :cool: :arrow: Povetkin-Rahmen outcome :wink: Posted September 28, 2012 10:14 amTommy BoyCorrection: Chisora I meant which Vitali could not do not Vlad. Oops Posted September 28, 2012 9:48 amTommy BoyTark is not an idiot in this post. He is absolutely correct. Haye had one bad night against Vlad who is the best in the world. Vitali will be a different fight and although I think that Fres should get a shot before David notmany ppl can challenge the Klits especially Wach or Charr. They have destroyed Adamak, Areola, Thompson & Chambers so Mitchell, Wilder or Jennings with rounds less than Areola wont fair any better. Oquendo is the only American who stands a chance to win and has NOT FOUGHT a Klit. Hay did KO Chisora which Vlad could not do so it is at least reason to believe it would be a competitive fight. At least with Haye & Oquendo you would get 2 experienced, amateur pedigreed in shape fighters to show up game day which is a lot more than last few opponents Klits have faced……. Posted September 28, 2012 9:45 amTommy BoyGood Points here Posted September 28, 2012 9:37 amray gordon REIDIF FIGHT DID HAPPEN VITALI OVER DAVY NOT DAVID HAYE 7.05 AM FRIDAY 9/28/2012 Posted September 28, 2012 7:02 amOneInchPunchAnonymous – only the first three rounds… after that Lewis started to connect and they tide was turning in Lewis favour!! Posted September 28, 2012 5:50 amFrochyYou wouldn't last 20 seconds with all those fighters you've just ignorantly slagged off. Posted September 28, 2012 5:23 amAnonymousStop talking bollocks. Im from the UK and was out in Ukraine for Euro 2012. Had no problems what so ever but then I'm white. But you have to ask the quastion as to how many non white people live in Ukraine compared to the UK. If Ukraine had millions like the UK then I guarantee you'd retract what you just put. Posted September 28, 2012 5:18 amSVDCPeople who think that Vitali would easily defeat Haye are fools. Look at the Wlad vs Haye fight. Why was Haye not succesfull. In my opinion, Wlads reflexes and speed combined with the longer reach/better jab neutralized Hayes strenghts. Vitali has a similar jab, but his reflexes/speed are not near to Wlads. I am convinces that Haye will land a lot more on Vitali then he would on Wlad. On the other hand probably also the other way around. It's a fight that could go both ways. Vitali is inb a difficult position here. On one hand beating Haye would add to his legacy. On the other hand, he's 41, there is a real chance he loses. When he loses, it won't matter he was 41 Posted September 28, 2012 3:30 amPigManHaye is Wladimir's Boot Licker. Wlad UD over Haye…………….UD!! Posted September 28, 2012 1:12 amAnonymousOnly fools think that Wladimir dominated Haye in their fight. Wladimir won by a TINY margin in most of the rounds. It was a cautious fight by both the fighters. David Haye and Wladimir Klitschko both possess the best reflexes/athlecticism in the HW division and hopefully it wont be too long before the two will meet again…. Posted September 28, 2012 12:16 amAnonymousI'm not a big K fan (and I was a Lewis fan), but you need to pull your head out of your ass. Vitali was dominating lewis until sustaining that awful cut. He basically lost to bad luck, and Lewis retired instead of redeeming himselfm in a rematch. Lewis didn't spank Vitali, it was the other way around. Lewis just got lucky and stopped him on cuts. Posted September 28, 2012 12:08 amWlad Fan (The Haters are in Klit Denial!)…Maybe Vitali and Wladimir will agree to protect him if he comes to Ukraine! …maybe hold his hand as he crosses the street…stick up for him at the playground…tuck him in at night… Posted September 27, 2012 11:56 pmAlonzoThat's an interesting point–I always hear it referred to as "the Ukraine"–whether it's an old episode of Seinfeld, a Harry Turtledove novel, or a breadbasket reference–people always stick a the in front of it. I see that with the United states, but not the china, or the brasil. Interesting. Posted September 27, 2012 11:48 pmAlonzoLawzi! Wheeze trapped in de Ukraine! Ain't nutin' lef' to do but help 'em with de nooses! Posted September 27, 2012 10:46 pmyourdadYou hate two of the biggest names in boxing, You also say you live to see them humbled, thats all they need, your money. Posted September 27, 2012 10:34 pmPeteHaye won rounds from Wladimir? How many was that again? 1? Haha. In a fight completely dominated by Wladimir, you use that as an argument to defend Haye? Just because he beat a fat chisora, a shot Ruiz, a clown like Valuev, a washed up Barrett, a fraud like Audley and no talent Maccarinelli, the Boxing public are supposed to get behind this overhyped bigmouth? Well actually I did feel sorry that he hurt his toe. Showed alot of pride that did, on national TV and all. Posted September 27, 2012 9:58 pmSREDMONDHaye was the last guy to hold a piece of the HW crown and he went all 12 with Wlad in a serious borefest….He destroyed the guy that gave Vitali the most trouble in years…If Charr was worthy then ALL bets are off its anything goes as it pertains to Klitschko…. Haye brings the most money and offers a degree of legacy enhancement should Vitali put some hurt on him…What other fight in the DEAD HW division makes more sense? Povetkin vs Rahman?? Posted September 27, 2012 9:38 pmzzthow dumb aand delusional are you? haye with a broken toe hahhahahaha Posted September 27, 2012 9:35 pmjuneauNo harm, but Haye has never beaten a quality opponent. Mormeck, Barrett, Valuev. Okay Valuev was a shareholder of the belts, yet he retired after Haye hit him 14 times, the other 2 have tried yet massively failed. I myself hate the K-domination as they bring absolutely no entertainment yet get the job done. I like Haye, until he talks. He has the goods, he can command a fortune, but why doesn't he? One last roll of the dice, at our expense. How arrogant of him to suggest that only the Klitscko's are worthy of HIM! When is Macklin fighting again? Posted September 27, 2012 9:28 pmSREDMONDKlitschko can retire saying "hey I spent MOST of my relevant career having to discuss Lennox Lewis bashing my face in and pretending a rematch would have made me a certified ATG", or he can take the best fight available against Haye and say that he tried to take on some level of risk on the way out…. Ending a career like this which is LOADED with ????????????? fighting Manuel Charr will assure Klits an HOF berth but he will mostly be forgotten when guys like Lewis, Holy, Ali, Foreman and others are mentioned and I'm not convinced beating Haye will move the needle that much but it's the right fight for him to take if he continues…Klits is a professional and he is always in shape and ready but his list of opponents is NOT impressive despite off the wall attempts to sell them as a murderers row…His fans tremble at the thought of a small HW/Crusier possibly getting to Klits who has a MASSIVE size advantage that should give them comfort…. I would favor Vitali in the bout but the reality is that Haye is faster than anyone he has fought and the guy can hit….. If Klits can fight the YOUNGER, BIGGER Charr then why not a smaller man with some talent and a punch???? Posted September 27, 2012 9:26 pmKeith WilliamsIt does not qualify as an article. It is same kind of crap that come from these haters who cannot stand fighters like Mayweather and Haye who refuse to shuffle and genuflect before them. They live vicariously off of the exploits of time fortunate boxing champs like the Klitchkos. They are angry because Haye did not go into the fight with Klitchko crazy and got himself knocked out so they could go home and masturbate happily. They live to see Mayweather or Haye humbled, so they can masturbate their egos. I hope both of those guys retire UD, so these haters could burn up with bitterness. Posted September 27, 2012 8:51 pmmehVote "no Vitali" Posted September 27, 2012 8:50 pmAnonymousTark, I got to agree with everybody. you are an Idot, your boy Haye was jumping up and down in the ring before the fight with VK, then after the loss, OH MY TOE. Why does he deserve a fight with the old VK, he wouldn't fight him 3 or 4 years ago, and Fury beat Chisora before anyone does he deserve a fight too. Posted September 27, 2012 8:27 pmActrosGreat article, Haye because of his mouth and, arrogance and indifference is a wasted talent, either let the fists do the talking or keep talking and retire, so much for Muhhamad Ali legacy, Haye is taking this the wrong way Posted September 27, 2012 8:13 pmTARKJeff Meyers — please retire from writing.. Haye is one of the few challengers who won rounds off Wladimir.. Even with a broken toe, leaving him unable to punch off that foot effectively, and with Wladimir leaning all over his back, Haye put in 12 rounds and caught Wladimir with the hardest punches—according to Wladimir—that Vlad's been ripped with in many years.. Vitali said he very much wanted to "put Haye in the dust" when Haye demanded another shot at a Klitschko.. At the press conference following Vitali's 12-round sruggle with Dereck Chisora, it was suggested to Haye that he fight Chisora and the winner fight Vitali.. Since that request Haye clobbered Chisora twice, and pinned his badass to the floor–something Vitali failed to do.. So where's all the talk of putting Haye in the dust now?? Since Haye destroyed Chisora Vitali's no longer interested.. Funny thing isn't it??? Haye showed how he can punch without a broken foot. Vitali made the unknown and unaccomplished Manuel Charr his last opponent instead of Haye …. Pretty big switcheroo right there. I think Vitali is the GHOAT, but he should have made Haye his last foe. It's only right. Posted September 27, 2012 8:10 pmRed RyanYou on Drugs?? Posted September 27, 2012 7:51 pmRed RyanHe would NEVER beat a Klitschko A 50 year old Vitali would still do Haye, Haye is a joke will always be a joke.. Posted September 27, 2012 7:49 pmBig RIchNow… sometimes it makes me laugh that some commentators can't read between the lines. whe doesnt deserve a shot at vitali after the vlad fight (which to be honest i thought haye would win) MartinVladmir K beat David Haye on points at home. To read this article you would think that he was beaten up and KO'd. If you look at Vlad K's record you have to go back many years to find a more closer fight than the one against Haye. As for the comments on bottle, there speaks a man that has never got into a boxing ring before. Posted September 27, 2012 7:28 pmTheFactsOf course Make huge money of what he though would be an easy win over glass chin Wlad now he goes for past his prime Vitali.Haye will never learn will he,what a clown.If the fight does happen david will complain about his pinky next haha.Hope he gets Ko'd again this time for good.

Sure, he beat a guy named Dereck Chisora, a guy who previously lost to Tyson Fury and Robert Helenius; Chisora's KO percentage was 47%, and the last guy Dereck beat was some guy with 43 losses (no kidding). David Haye still has lots to prove. Posted September 27, 2012 5:29 pmVinceGetta grip Posted September 27, 2012 5:29 pmE in DenverIdeally a box off between Haye & Adamek decides who will face Vitali. Haye isn't in a position to dictate terms. But the guy is brought up because of the lack of experienced, talent in the division. Name 3 HWs that you would rank over Haye that aren't named Klitschko? After Haye's performance vs. Wlad, a winner take all purse offer or a purse based on how many rounds Haye wins w/ a bonus for winning the fight seems fair.

Real boxing fans have a problem with cherrypicking and inactive fighters.

I have been around most HW and Fres has either fought or sparred just about everyone out there including Vitali. Yes I do know more than about 99% as far as HW go. Ive been around them and study them and know them. I am partial because David is one of my best friends and he talked the talk but didnt walk the walk. He admits it, I admit it. I also know that in most cases boxing is a joke, a dirty business and 99% of the time fighting has nothing to do with boxing. You are on another promoter's card you lose no matter what barring a KO. Holyfield beat Valuev. Marco Huc beat Povetkin. Chambers beat Adamek. Pac beat Bradley. Marquez probly beat Pac. And on a final note Vitali sells tickets in Germany and Ukraine. Haye got Klits their biggest payday and he can sellout and sell TV better than them. So they can go on beating bums or they can fight Haye for money or a guy like Fres for legitimacy. Manuel Char and Maeruiryfje89jz Wach or whatever his name is just does not cut it for me. Posted September 27, 2012 12:59 pmSidI would have to agree with the masturbating 17 year old.

Posted September 27, 2012 12:14 pmHidalgoNevertheless, when Haye got his chance with Wlad he flitted around the ring like a yellow-rumped warbler. With a broken toe. And chronic falling-down syndrome. Posted September 27, 2012 11:45 amHidalgoAndrew, stop arguing with yourself. Posted September 27, 2012 11:42 amAndrewDidn't both Wlad and Vitali come out and say they'd fight him at Wembley but as soon as it got going, it had to be in Germany. I'm seriously sick of these internet warriors, sitting behind their blog desks while saying a lifelong fighter who's gone to America, Germany (twice) and the outskirts of Paris to fight and to fight for titles. All the while, you are most likely a masturbating 17 year old, who would cry if someone like Haye even flinched at your face. There's absolutely nothing wrong with him not wanting to fight in Ukraine, and I think Vitali should just STFU and take the fight in Germany or the UK – as a fan, who the F cares where the fight is held? Posted September 27, 2012 11:16 ambillVitali by brutal KO in a fight that is never going to happen. Never happening. Posted September 27, 2012 11:05 amK2FanNO BITE against dogs with TEETH , K2FanMatt … If we are going to applaud MatadorAlso, if you had correctly predicted "how Haye would fight and he boxed" then I have a hard time seeing how you could come to any conclusion other than a wide UD loss for Haye. He had one shot…piss Wlad off and land with one wild punch. Posted September 27, 2012 10:03 amMatadorYou humbly know more than 99 percent, BUT! "I was completely wrong in Haye vs Vlad." Posted September 27, 2012 9:59 amColNote for the author; second paragraph, it's not soccer, it' JabHaye is looking for another easy payday. Posted September 27, 2012 9:54 amTommy BoyDavid can care less if he fights or not. He is a wealthy man who will always make great money in the UK. He had one bad fight in his career (notwithstanding his early loss) to a great, experienced and cautious champion in Vlad. So he talked the talk, promoted the fight made $25 million pounds but instead of coasting like the Klits do with EZ opponents, (which he could have kept doing) he took a chance, went for broke and tried to unify the belts. So he screwed up and lost. It is not like Vlad went for broke either. I think it will be a completely different fight if its Haye vs Vitali. Fres has sparred Vitali and Vit has weaknesses. Heart and chin is not one of them but he lacks the power he once had and Vlads power. He can be hit easier and he is not the same fighter he once was. He is less agile and slower than Vlad and for sure David. Haye will connect against the less defensive brother Vitali who certainly is not cautious like his little brother. Now we never know what will happen, that's why they fight. But given my experience and knowledge with HW, which is more extensive than 99% of boxing people out there, I do see a more competitive fight in Haye vs Klit. I was completely wrong in Haye vs Vlad but I did predict how Haye would fight and he boxed, did not go for the KO but we all have a plan on what to do but once inside that ring things change. I knew the experience Vlad had would be the only way he would win and I told this to David. Experience is key because experience makes fighters cagey in there and those losses, rounds, wins and age does not compete with being young, inexperienced and dumb thinking you can take over the world. That is why Klits fight these inexperienced young guns. They are young, big, strong, undefeated but the Klits know they are EZ wins and babes in the woods when they get in there. And so it goes until or if they get into the ring some day.

Posted September 27, 2012 8:29 amLeninWe lauded Chisora for his performance against Vitali yet he lost terribly by a far wider margin than Haye had done against Vladimir. Vitali K. vs. Chisora: 118-110, 118-110, 119-111. Vladimir K. vs. Haye: 118-108, 117-109, 116-110. You're wrong. And it's true: Haye did close to NOTHING in 12 rds. except for running and throwing two bombs that Vladimir took without any problems. Haye ran. Delboy won rounds because of his bravery and going forward through the fire. Yes, Haye defeated Chisora. True. But Delboy's performance was better than Haye's refusal to fight. Posted September 27, 2012 8:22 amirishnyExactly, this looks like the writings of an upset fan, not that of a real journalist. The standard of articles on this site has gone downhill dramatically in recent times.

David Haye has done MORE than enough to qualify as a Vitali opponent at this point, he was the last guy I believe to hold a piece of the HW title other than a Klits…He went a full 12 with the best HW of the era albeit he stunk out the joint, he destroyed Vitalis last viable opponent and the guy who gave Klits his hardest fight in years….Why not David Haye? and if not Haye then just retire Klitschko fighting Hasim Rahman or one of these other dead men is not going to do anything but pad and pretty padded record as it is….

Posted September 27, 2012 7:22 amjohnharryHaye has a big mouth of that there is no doubt but to suggest he has no bottle is the sort of diatribe that comes from someone who sits safely at a distance commenting on a subject they themselves would never have the 'bottle' to indulge in physically. huckster:!: Posted September 27, 2012 7:18 am2slickThis assertion is baseless and created to inspire a reaction, probably by some Klit appeaser. I appreciate that a lot of tubby, lank haired, weaselly web addict types and white supremacists have a deeply ingrained dislike for Haye. Haye talks a lot of cr"p and toegate was pathetic. But the guy has plenty of bottle. The guy won the unified cruiserweight titles in Paris against the French fighter, he fought Valuev in Germany, he fought Wlad in Germany. He is willing to go to Germany again to fight big Vit. The same people said he lacked the bottle to take Delbum on after their scrap – yet he did and smashed him up. The guy was pushing himself into all of this when after the same number of fights the K Bros were still fighting no marks. You window lickers can congratulate yourself figuring out that Ga y rhymes with Haye all you like but facts are facts and the Toefairy has proven his mettle on plenty of occasions. Sure, he came up short against Wlads Jab'n'Grab in a dull shut-out but in doing so he overcame physical disadvantage and made Wlad look anything but an ATG, in Germany. He's not a bottle job at all. The hack 'journalism' and lack of objectivity on this site is apalling at times. Posted September 27, 2012 7:18 amSREDMONDDavid Haye represents Vitalis only chance to retire having people speak about a contests OTHER than Lennox Lewis… His last bout was a JOKE from the moment it was announced and sadly typifies the low quality of the bulk of his opposition…However he and Haye come to terms it offers a bout with someone who has a high profile and is coming off a devastating win against a guy that Vitali defeated backpedaling and looking uncomfortable for 12 rounds…. Haye one upped his performance against Chisora by a HUGE margin… Posted September 27, 2012 7:09 amNeil (pomy)Vitali made very hard work of Chisora ….. whereas Haye blitz'ed him.

Posted September 27, 2012 6:37 amBPMKirk: sure styles makes fights, but i dont see haye slugging it out with Vitali, and i dont see Haye outworking and outpointing Vitali. Sure he could catch Vitali with a big punch, but i doubt that Haye could do what Lennox or Sanders wasnt able to do, even though they caught him with some clean and powerfull shots. IHaye would more likely use the same strategy as he did against Wladimir, and maybe he will land some more punches. Im fine with Haye getting a title fight, i just want him to earn it by beating a topranked fighter. Posted September 27, 2012 6:28 amOneInchPunchDoes Haye deserve a fight with Vitail…. It seems vital thinks so and the fight should take place in his home land. The author and some posters are missing the point… both champs are discussing a fight between them…. Haye is just stating he will not fight in Ukraine. You have to ask yourself who proposed the Ukraine as the destination for the fight to happen…. LET ME TELL YOU IT WAS NOT HAYE… and apparently Vitail and his team thinks Haye might deserve the right to share a ring with him…. And as Vitail is the one getting in the ring… it's his thoughts that count and on one else's. Posted September 27, 2012 5:31 amOneInchPunchKirk…. well said!!

Game 4: San Jose 4, Vancouver 1 Game rewind
Just Can't Beat These Guys!
Defenseman Marc-Edouard Vlasic and Matt Pelech scored first-period goals as visiting San Jose extended its season-opening winning streak to four games. While Vancouver was able to keep rookie sensation Tomas Hertl off the scoresheet, it could not prevent the rest of the Sharks from producing.

Sharks Stay Perfect, Beat Vancouver 4-1 to Improve to 4-0
The San Jose Sharks remained one of the league's few unbeaten teams Thursday evening with a 4-1 victory over the Vancouver Canucks at Rogers Arena.
The Sharks had a very balanced attack in the victory, getting goals from all four lines that skated. Patrick Marleau, Matt Pelech, Brent Burns and Marc-Edouard Vlasic each scored for San Jose and Antti Niemi made 25 saves in net for...
Sharks stay hot, topple Vancouver 4-1
Tomas Hertl was kept off the scoresheet for the first time this season but it didn't matter.
The Sharks skated out of Rogers Arena on Thursday night as one of four NHL teams with a perfect record after a 4-1 victory that marked their ninth consecutive regular season and playoff win over their new Pacific Divison rivals.

McLellan sends message, Tennyson down
Matt Pelech John McCarthy and Bracken Kearns didn't make the Opening Night roster but that doesn't mean Todd McLellan is unhappy with any of their performances. Quite the contrary actually.
McLellan issued a warning of sorts to his current roster on Monday suggesting that some players had better make sure their game is ready from the first drop of the puck or the so-called "Worcester...
Even Steven, don't wait for Nate
The Sharks recalled Matt Pelech again, and placed James Sheppard on IR. That last is based on the Sharks' online roster, which I'm not sure I can rely on. Tim Kennedy has gone missing from that same roster, but maybe he wasn't there to begin with. I haven't been checking closely. I only checked today to find out why they needed Pelech again. Kennedy isn...

LIBERTY — With a name like Liberty, youd expect a town to shine the fire engines for the Fourth of July parade, trot out the mayor in an Uncle Sam hat and blow the sky apart with more fireworks than they set off at Disney World.
But they wont. Not on Wednesday, anyway. This Randolph County town, with the states most patriotic name, will throw its America party on Saturday three days late.
You can get half-off on fireworks, explained Roger Davis, town manager.
The thinking goes like this: With a population of some 2,800, Liberty would have a hard time luring people away from holiday fireworks shows in Raleigh and Greensboro or even the fishing booth at nearby Randleman.
But by waiting each year until the Saturday after the Fourth, when rockets red glare sells at a 50-percent discount, Liberty can throw a wingding that lures 80 percent of the towns residents, draws curious out-of-town visitors, brings 60 vendors, 10 food trucks and an all-day lineup of bands, including Rough Cut, The Shell-Tones and Lightnin.
That can push the holiday as far back as July 11 in years when Independence Day actually falls on Saturday. But Liberty figures, correctly so far, that party-goers will save up some of their flag-waving oomph for the weekend.
Its probably the only time all year we have traffic, Davis said.
Five years ago, Liberty had no Independence Day party at all, and the holiday passed as quietly as the public library on a Tuesday afternoon. The chance to create something special hung like a piñata, waiting for Liberty to swing.
Even though the town is named for an antebellum plantation, its too colorful to sit out the spectacle of July Fourth. Liberty is home to Craig Kirkman, world skeet champion. The Chamber of Commerce is housed inside a red caboose. Theres an ocean mural painted on the back of Hurricane Janes restaurant, which also boasts fake palm trees.
Even in June, flags hung from every telephone pole downtown, not to mention the tricolor bunting on the cupcake shop or the plywood Old Glory hanging in the guitar store window. Carol Walls thrift store, Awesome Finds, sells a flag-themed teddy bear. Carolyn Vickrey decorates the mannequin in her dress shop window in Betsy Ross attire.
Her flag has six stars, Vickrey said. Shes still working on it.
Come July 7, 1,000 people will be standing in the darkened ball field at Liberty Elementary, faces lit green and red, oohing and aahing. More will park their trucks along the street and watch from the bed. Nobody in Liberty minds the shows three-day delay.
Most of them can see it from their house, said Debbie Adams, chamber director. I always drive to my moms boyfriends backyard.
Remember that, at least according to urban legend, King George III wrote in his diary that on July 4, 1776, nothing of importance happened, and that independence from England didnt truly arrive until 1783 the end of the Revolutionary War.
So the town with the flag-waving name embraces the spirit of libertys slow but certain coming just as welcome if a little tardy.

Role of Antibody Paratope Conformational Flexibility in the Manifestation of Molecular Mimicry
Biophysical Journal, Volume 94, Issue 4, 15 February 2008, Pages 1367-1376
Lavanya Krishnan, Gaurav Sahni, Kanwal J. Kaur and Dinakar M. Salunke
AbstractMolecular mimicry is a recurrent theme in host defense processes. The correlation of functional mimicry with the structural features of the antibody paratope has been investigated, addressing the consequences of mimicry in host immune mechanisms. Two anti-mannopyranoside antibodies, 1H7 and 2D10, representing the possible extremes of the recognition spectrum with regard to peptide-carbohydrate mimicry were examined. Crystallographic and molecular dynamics simulation analyses established correlation between the antibody flexibility and the manifestation of mimicry. It was evident that monoclonal antibody (mAb) 1H7, which has a narrow specificity in favor of the immunizing antigen, exhibited structural invariance. On the other hand, the antigen-combining site of 2D10, the mimicry-recognizing antibody, showed substantial divergence in the complementarity determining region loops. The docking of mannopyranoside within the antibody paratope revealed multiple modes of binding of the carbohydrate antigen in mAb 2D10 vis à vis single docking mode in mAb 1H7, which overlapped with the common monosaccharide binding site defined in anti-carbohydrate antibodies. The presence of additional antigen binding modes is perhaps reflective of the utilization of conformational flexibility in molecular mimicry. A relatively broader recognition repertoire—attributable to paratope flexibility—may facilitate the recognition of altered antigens of invading pathogens while the antibodies with narrow recognition specificity maintain the fidelity of the response.

Alternative Splicing of Agrin Alters Its Binding to Heparin, Dystroglycan, and the Putative Agrin Receptor
Neuron, Volume 16, Issue 4, 1 April 1996, Pages 755-767
Matthias Gesemann, Valeria Cavalli, Alain J Denzer, Andrea Brancaccio, Beat Schumacher and Markus A Ruegg
SummaryAgrin is a heparan sulfate proteoglycan that induces aggregation of acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) at the neuromuscular synapse. This aggregating activity is modulated by alternative splicing. Here, we compared binding of agrin isoforms to heparin, α-dystroglycan, and cultured myotubes. We find that the alternatively spliced 4 amino acid insert (KSRK) is required for heparin binding. The binding affinity of agrin isoforms to α-dystroglycan correlates neither with binding to heparin nor with their AChR-aggregating activities. Moreover, the minimal fragment sufficient to induce AChR aggregation does not bind to α-dystroglycan. Nevertheless, this fragment still binds to cultured muscle cells. Its binding is competed only by agrin isoforms that are active in AChR aggregation, and therefore this binding site is likely to represent the receptor that initiates AChR clustering.

Mast Cells Increase Vascular Permeability by Heparin-Initiated Bradykinin Formation In Vivo
Immunity, Volume 34, Issue 2, 25 February 2011, Pages 258-268
Chris Oschatz, Coen Maas, Bernd Lecher, Thomas Jansen, Jenny Björkqvist, Thomas Tradler, Reinhard Sedlmeier, Peter Burfeind, Sven Cichon, Sven Hammerschmidt, Werner Müller-Esterl, Walter A. Wuillemin, Gunnar Nilsson and Thomas Renné
SummaryActivated mast cells trigger edema in allergic and inflammatory disease. We report a paracrine mechanism by which mast cell-released heparin increases vascular permeability in vivo. Heparin activated the protease factor XII, which initiates bradykinin formation in plasma. Targeting factor XII or kinin B2 receptors abolished heparin-triggered leukocyte-endothelium adhesion and interfered with a mast cell-driven drop in blood pressure in rodents. Intravital laser scanning microscopy and tracer measurements showed heparin-driven fluid extravasation in mouse skin microvessels. Ablation of factor XII or kinin B2 receptors abolished heparin-induced skin edema and protected mice from allergen-activated mast cell-driven leakage. In contrast, heparin and activated mast cells induced excessive edema in mice deficient in the major inhibitor of factor XII, C1 esterase inhibitor. Allergen exposure triggered edema attacks in hereditary angioedema patients, lacking C1 esterase inhibitor. The data indicate that heparin-initiated bradykinin formation plays a fundamental role in mast cell-mediated diseases.

Add/View Comments (0)Release of low density lipoprotein from its cell surface receptor by sulfated glycosaminoglycans
Joseph L. Goldstein, Sandip K. Basu, Gloria Y. Brunschede and Michael S. Brown
- The sulfated glycosaminoglycan, heparin, was found to release 125I-labeled low density lipoprotein (125I-LDL) from its receptor site on the surface of normal human fibroblasts. Measurement of the amount of 125I-LDL released by heparin permitted the resolution of the total cellular uptake of 125I-LDL at 37°C into two components: first, an initial rapid, high affinity binding of the lipoprotein to the surface receptor, from which the 125I-LDL could be released by heparin, and second, a slower process attributable to an endocytosis of the receptor-bound lipoprotein, which rendered it resistant to heparin release. At 4°C the amount of heparin-releasable 125I-LDL was similar to that at 37°C, but interiorization of the lipoprotein did not occur at the lower temperature. The physiologic importance of the cell surface LDL receptor was emphasized by the finding that mutant fibroblasts from a subject with homozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia, which lack the ability to take up 125I-LDL at 37°C, did not show cell surface binding of 125I-LDL, as measured by heparin release, at either 4°C or 37°C. Although heparin released 125I-LDL from its binding site, it did not release 3H-concanavalin A from its surface receptor, and conversely, α-methyl-D-mannopyranoside, which released 3H-concanavalin A, did not release surface-bound 125I-LDL. When added to the culture medium simultaneously with LDL, heparin prevented the binding of LDL to its receptor and hence prevented the LDL-mediated suppression of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase activity. The uptake of LDL by fibroblasts is proposed as a model of receptor-mediated adsorptive endocytosis of macromolecules in human cells.

I'm out here in good old South Dakota. I recognized your name but can ya add a 15 to the thread?? I'll throw "Reggoh's Rangers" out there for consideration. Since you were the first to post up.Wow, The Bobber and Reg on the same team, sorry Team 15 that you have a couple of LOSERs like that on your team. Oh the trash talking has begun.Good Luck everyone and please excuse the stuff Bobber and I will throw at one another if any of it lands on you.
Let's not name the team after me please… When we win, it will be from the contributions of all members…I just hope that I can throw a few points in the mix this year… I did scratch last year on deer (killed a decent Elk but they don't count)
I will be hunting mostly on public land again this year. I was unsuccessful at securing a lease after many many efforts
I have a few buddies that want me to make some weekend hunts with them and hopefully I can make those trips fruitful.
I will not be making my annual trip to Wisconsin this year either… Buddies wife is pregnant and due the first week of November.I've been in this contest every year since 2007… I've posted a buck in all but 2 of those years.
I have never posted 2 deer in the same year (one year I did shoot a doe late in the season but did not register it because we were so far behind)
My goal this year is to post a buck and a doe to help our team win!EDIT: My season is from Sept 21 – Feb 15
As far as team names… I'll try to throw a few out there:
Scat Daddies
Tine Tumblers
Bone Breakers
Backstrap Burglars
Pass Through Posse
Bullseye Bandits
Silent Shafts- This reply was modified 6 months, 3 weeks ago by Reggoh.

Nrth16 here. Hunting out of WIHey My name is Mike looking forward with this team .I don't care what is our team name .well this year my big 10 pts buck made it Thur during gun season .I had opportunity To tag him last year he freezze right behind big oak tree .he knew something was wrong with decoy I had set up.hope I will bust him this Fall!-}}}--------------------> shooting Helim and now switchy is retire hangin on the wall!I think we are just missing Yanna… He's been around for a while and I know he doesn't check in every day but he will eventually check in… You guys got any other suggestions for team names? We can get that out of the way and try to figure out how to make us a banner… any of you guys have a program and the know how to do that?Got a call yesterday about a lease… it was a little unexpected but I went out to look at the property after work… It is 268 acres and it looks pretty decent… they just burned all the undergrowth but I think me and a couple of other guys are going to go in on it and start our own little 4 man club. After the burn there should be a decent amount of browse coming up by hunting season provided we get enough rain…. I may even try a food plot if we can get the lease agreement done in a timely manner.
Yanna is always golfing now a days ! I sure he check in sometime.-}}}--------------------> shooting Helim and now switchy is retire hangin on the wall!I play golf every Friday afternoon… but that usually slows down during hunting season.Some people say hunting is a matter of life and death… I say it's much more important than that!
I am voting for: TINE TUMBLERS as our name… anyone else have any suggestions or want one of the other names I suggested?I am voting for: TINE TUMBLERS as our name… anyone else have any suggestions or want one of the other names I suggested?

The average American's top holiday wishes are (1) Good health, (2) Winning the lottery, and (3) World peace. So dig deep for perspective, and refuse to spend yourself into debt this year. With a little thought and creativity, you can cut your December purchasing by half—yes, I said half. Here's how: 1. Decide who on your list doesn't need a present to feel loved/valued/professionally maintained. Make a donation to charity in their names. Voilà, you've given a bit to world peace. 2. Don't buy cards—send back the ones your friends sent you last year. After a few years, the notes become a log of your friendship (Cost: $.44). 3. Give yummy treats from your home state, like California's Marie Callender's Original Cornbread Mix ($4.54; MCCornbread.com) or Rhode Island quahog (a local clam) clam chowder ($5.50; OnlyinRhodeIsland.com). 4. For those few regular sorts of gifts you must spend more on, George Whalin, president and CEO of Retail Management Consultants, advises that you comparison shop (using Google Product Search or CNET.com), be aware of online shipping costs, and shop early—two to three weeks before Thanksgiving in stores, and online in October. — Amanda Robb |
