Before passing a comment or two on Randy SimmsŌĆÖ boorish, on-air description of one of his callers as an ŌĆ£arsehole,ŌĆØ I canŌĆÖt help but admit to my own rather enjoyable penchant for using off-colour language.
In fact, IŌĆÖve always believed that unleashing a mighty stream of cuss words is a greatly under-appreciated form of therapy that has been unfairly maligned by the holier-than-thou crowd.
Most people who know me can attest to the fact that I have a grand, unabashed fondness for expletives, that I indulge in cursing and swearing as a matter of course, that IŌĆÖm an expert at utilizing the F-word as an adverb, adjective and noun all in the same sentence.
They also know that once upon a time I even exploited that prowess for potty-mouthed language to enliven benign CBC meetings in Toronto whenever the arrival of
a fresh batch of publicly funded muffins seemed set to dominate the agenda.
Truth be known, IŌĆÖve always felt slightly sorry for those pious types unable to let loose with a healthy cathartic barrage, as if thereŌĆÖs a Lord Almighty with a giant calculator tabulating each and every curse word a sinful earthling uses during the course of a lifetime (along with a calculation of all the Hail Marys, Our Fathers and rosaries recited by the holy rollers in a variety of candle-lit venues throughout the world).
Lots of curse words, lack of prayers? The LordŌĆÖs conclusion is that you had better get prepared for a permanent, eternal corner in Perdition.
No swearing and lots of knee-pad adorations to the Blessed Trinity? Welcome to heaven, even if youŌĆÖve mistreated your fellow human beings, engaged in slander and backstabbing, and bullied the
vulnerable whenever the opportunity arose. No problem, says the almighty adjudicator; you didnŌĆÖt curse and made enough excursions abound the gory and X-rated Stations of the Cross. ThatŌĆÖs what really counts.
Cursing is so minor in the overall scheme of things, donŌĆÖt you think?
As George Carlin once put it in an exchange on Fox TV with that tight-arsed, hypocritical, moralizing right-winger Bill OŌĆÖReilly ŌĆö theyŌĆÖre just words, man. Get over it.
Anyway, this pro-cursing rant was inspired, as I say, by the publicity generated by a saucy outburst from Randy Simms last week on his pseudo-journalistic talk show on VOCM (the Voice of the Cabinet Minister, as some cynics have described it).
Now, believe me, I recognize the prominence of cursing in the newsroom.
Aside from launching into a healthy and normal barrage of
F-this and F-that while watching a hockey game or fixing a flat on a frigid February morning, I probably saved my finer moments of swearing for the journalistic workplaces where I hung my hat for decades, all the attacks aimed at my fellow colleagues which were returned in kind.
But during my thousands of interviews for print, radio and television outlets, I donŌĆÖt ever recall telling the interviewees that they were ŌĆ£arseholesŌĆØ or that they were ŌĆ£stupid.ŌĆØ Certainly not on air.
Might have thought it, but never said it.
There always seemed to be more appropriate, much deadlier and much more effective ways to cut into the personŌĆÖs jugular. When they deserved it, of course (a purely subjective matter, I do admit). And IŌĆÖm talking here about interviews, not nasty exchanges with disgruntled and rude viewers or listeners or readers, which were often, I confess, punctuated by the odd curse.
But poor unseemly Simms delivered his tavern act on air, live to the province.
And he deserved the subsequent flak.
First of all, though, before some of you Randy regulars start to feel sorry for your hero, remember that open-line hosts and their stations thrive on this sort of controversy, that they love it when the so-called ŌĆ£personalitiesŌĆØ say and do provocative things. ItŌĆÖs all part of the routine, part of the act.
ItŌĆÖs not journalism; itŌĆÖs entertainment.
And it all draws attention to the show, provides a great shot of free PR.
I canŌĆÖt swear to it, but IŌĆÖll bet you the VOCM bosses celebrated quietly with a drink over this one, even as the host, Mount Pearl mayor, Frosty Festival participant and Telegram columnist was apologizing, with qualifiers, for the way in which he attacked aboriginal groups for bringing down caribou with no apparent concern for the future of the herd.
There were certainly no winners in this odd incident.
The aboriginal leader involved in the set-to with sinful Simms did his cause no favours by lazily playing the race card (criticize the butchering of caribou in a dramatically depleted herd and youŌĆÖre bound to hear a scattered charge of racism, the same way, IŌĆÖm sure, that any negative thoughts about that bizarre hunger strike in Ottawa were greeted with cries of racism).
For its part, the open-line show showed itself for exactly what it is, a tabloid program that deals all too often in broad, sweeping generalities, and it also managed to enhance its hostŌĆÖs reputation as the ringmaster of the talk-radio circus.
About the only people who didnŌĆÖt benefit were those in the province genuinely interested in real information and a needed public debate about the state of the caribou herd.
Instead, they were exposed to a farce and a possible sketch for the next Rising Tide ŌĆ£Revue.ŌĆØ

If you are looking for a nice hotel in the Ahwatukee area this is it. Awesome setting.. Great views. Very relaxing.. The whole place is nice and quite and very peaceful. The rooms are slightly dated but we just came from a suite at the Talking Stick Resort and that place is brand new. The staff here was so friendly. Upgraded us to a nicer room with view and balcony. Nice looking pool with a great little cozy pool bar and restaurant. Worked perfect for grabbing a quick bite before we went out. I have stayed here before and would definitely come back. ...

This is a wonderful hotel if you are looking to get away. Keep in mind it is out quite a distance from the city and other convieniences. I don't believe there is a better value for your money out there. On Friday evening we were suprised after using the pool and hot tub to find smores were being made at the fire pit! Wonderful experience!

3 Questions from the Community
can I use a halogen with 90W Par 30 with this housing?
What is the max Watts and what type of bulb do I use for this housing. Just moved in my house and bulb in this is not giving off enough light!
A. The Progress Lighting P8066 is a 6" TRIM and can be used with multiple housings. The maximum wattage would depend on the make, model and specifications of the housing. I'm sorry, but I do not know what housing you have to be able to answer the question. I would suggest you see if the manufacture/model is listed inside the housing and call the manufacturer directly.
Is this compatible with Halo brand housing?

During the American Revolution, General Washington used a small wooden whistle to signal commands to light infantry companies, who could not rely on the beating of the company drum to relay field communications above the din of battle. The wooden signal produces one, high-pitched note. Commands such "retreat", "advance", and "commence firing" were communicated by the duration of each note blown within a set pattern.
A leather carrying strap is included with the 4" wooden signal whistle.

Next Firefox can detect computer orientation
The upcoming version 3.6 of Firefox will be able to tell if you're listing to starboard--and pass that information along to applications running in the browser.
That's because the browser will be able to detect the orientation of laptops and mobile devices equipped with accelerometers that can tell which way is down. The reason for the work: Web applications running in the browser will be able to use the information, useful for labyrinth-type games with virtual marbles rolling around boards, and any number of other gaming situations.

When taking on a new job, it's inevitable that you will be compared to the person who last held the post. Sometimes this can be a positive thing, especially when hearing a complaint.

Sometimes, however, filling the shoes left by a predecessor can be impossible.

Over the last year I have seen a great effort by the FFA, 4-H and other agricultural education associations in raising the visibility and interest in the California Special Interest License Plate for Agriculture (CalAgPlate). This program is a great opportunity to provide consistent funding to agricultural education in California through a portion of fees collected in the annual renewal of license plates.
I grew up in a small town. Now, I know native Turlockers like to think this is a small town, but they're wrong. The population of my hometown was around 3,000 when I was living there; it's over 4,600 today. Turlock boasts a population of over 68,000. Enough said.
Why is court so complicated? I just feel the frustration ooze out of the small claims litigants. Most folks who sue in small claims court sue on "principle" and firmly believe that they are in the right. The judge, however, must follow the substantive law. In small claims court, it is the legal procedures that have been modified or set aside to give folks easier access to the Courts.

According to the "Longman English Dictionary," a New Year's resolution is "a decision to do something better or stop doing something bad in the new year." Not surprisingly, New Year's resolutions generally serve only as broad ideals that individuals fabricate in an attempt to freshen themselves for the new time period; exercising more, controlling expenses, or simply behaving nicer constitute the main desires. Despite the truth that such resolutions rarely survive the temptations that unfold, and in this case the ones that may have already unfolded, incorporating the right amount of water into your body's system will ...

Every time I fill my gas tank, I see the notice on the pump that explains part of the fuel I'm buying is ethanol. Ethanol is alcohol, a type of biofuel rather than fossil fuel.

(The starch in the corn is broken down into sugars that are then fermented into alcohol.) With corn ethanol, we are essentially putting food into our gas tanks, a fact that some people take exception to because it ...
A recent article in the Turlock Journal reported that the California High-Speed Rail Authority was granted an extension from the Federal Railroad Administration in paying $180 million it owed the FRA, and quoted Congressman Jeff Denham accusing the FRA of "protecting the Authority" by bypassing the current high-speed rail funding agreement in order to keep the project moving forward.

H.S. wrestling: Ridgewood's Joe Oliva off to 15-0 start
RIDGEWOOD – Joe Oliva isn't the type of wrestler who dwells on his mistakes.
Instead, he will simply file away what he learned and a week later, or a month, or a year bring it back up and make it work for him on the mat.
That was the formula the junior from Ridgewood rode to his first Region 2 title and within a hair's breath of placing in the state tournament last season. It has continued to drive him to a 15-0 start this season and Ridgewood's first Bergen Holiday tournament championship in 10 years.
"When I came back to win the region last year, it showed me that when I'm focused and ready I can win the big matches," said Oliva.
Oliva beat Pascack Valley's Dean Piterski by a point in the Region 2 final last season, avenging a disappointing loss to Piterski in the semifinals of the Bergen Holiday tournament two months earlier.
And it came just a week after he had suffered an equally disappointing overtime loss to Garfield's Brian Robinson in the District 6 final. That loss he avenged in December with a 6-4 victory over Robinson in a dual meet.
"I think that match woke me up last year," Oliva said of the loss in the district final. "It was still in my head when I beat him this year. But I don't want to rest. I want to come into every match focused and wrestle every match hard."
"He doesn't like to lose to guys twice," Ridgewood coach Torre Watson said. "He's the type of kid who takes his mistakes and learns from them."
And he's hoping his ride to the Maroons' first Bergen Holiday tournament title since Tyler Flatt in 2003 is the first step toward putting it all together this season.
"It was great to be able to represent Ridgewood as a county champion, but it doesn't mean much at the end of the season," Oliva said. "You can still go down to the regions or the states and get knocked out and nobody will remember what you did in December. I have to build off that."
Oliva has actually been building since the Robinson loss in the district final.
For the first time in his wrestling career, he devoted his summer to getting as much time on the mat as he possibly could.
"I must have wrestled something like 60 matches," he said. "I wanted to get in some tough matches so that when I get down to the state tournament I'm ready for them."
Ready for matches like his 6-4 quarterfinal loss in overtime to top-seeded Robert Trombetta in the state tournament last year.
A win there would have guaranteed Oliva a medal. Instead, he lost in the wrestlebacks and came home empty-handed.
"I feel like I wrestle well on my feet but I have to be a better mat wrestler," Oliva said. "I need to be able to ride kids out and turn them because that's what you need to be able to do in Atlantic City to win those tough, close matches, 2-0."
"He has improved tremendously on his feet, and I think he's better in the neutral position," Watson said. "He's focusing more on controlling other wrestlers more when he's on top and in the offensive position."
He may have his chance to try out some of what he's learned on some of the state's best even before the tournament season starts. Ridgewood is scheduled to face North Bergen and two-time state-place-winner Anthony Giraldo later this month and Watchung Hills and returning state champion Mike Magaldo next month.
"You need those tough matches to get ready for what you'll face in the state tournament," Oliva said.

under the auspices of the National Academy of Engineering (NAE).
The National Academy of Engineering is a private organization
established in 1964. It shares in the responsibility given the National
Academy of Sciences under a congressional charter granted in 1863 to
advise the federal government on questions of science and technology.
This collaboration is implemented primarily through the National
Research Council. The National Academy of Engineering also sponsors
engineering programs aimed at meeting national needs, encourages
education and research, and recognizes distinguished engineers.
The President of the National Academy of Engineering is responsible
for the decision to publish an NAE manuscript through the National
Academy Press. In reviewing publications that include papers signed by
individuals, the President considers the competence, accuracy,
objectivity, and balance of the work as a whole. In reaching his decision,
the President is advised by such reviewers as he deems necessary on any
aspect of the material treated in the papers.
Publication of signed work signifies that it is judged a competent and
useful contribution worthy of public consideration, but it does not imply
endorsement of conclusions or recommendations by the NAE. The
interpretations and conclusions in such publications are those of the
authors and do not purport to represent the views of the council, officers,

Preface and Acknowledgments
The Symposium on Hazards: Technology and Fairness was convened by
the National Academy of Engineering (NAE) in cooperation with the Com-
mission on Life Sciences and the Environmental Studies Board of the
National Research Council, and was intended to bring together members of
academic, industrial, legal, and public-sector communities with expertise in
the management of technological hazards. This symposium, held on June
3-4, 1985, was the fourth of the NAE's Symposia on Technology and Social
Priorities. Symposium participants addressed issues relating to hazards that
arise from chronic, low-level exposures and to high-consequence hazards
that are estimated to have a low probability of occurrence. Workshops were
held during the second day of the symposium; participants in the workshops
attempted to identify emergent issues of hazard management and to expand
the range of potential solutions to uncertain technological risks. The papers
in this volume are based on the symposium. Versions ofthree ofthese papers
(those by Huber, Kates, and Weinberg) were also published in Issues in
Science and Technology (vol. 2, no. 1, Fall 19851.
Specific topics addressed by the authors fall into three general areas,
which make up the three major divisions of this volume. These topics are
(1) management of low-level or low-probability hazards when scientific
evidence of causation is, and is likely to remain, uncertain; (2) equitable
distribution of the costs and benefits of potentially hazardous technologies;
and (3) management of technological hazards in the face of conflicting
scientific, ethical, and constituency claims.
Many people contributed to the success of the symposium and to the

Do you think lifting weights is counterproductive for surfing or does it have some benefits? What's more important upper body or lower body? Lifting seems like it could help your paddling but its kind of different with short bursts vs. longevity.
Do you think lifting weights is counterproductive for surfing or does it have some benefits? What's more important upper body or lower body? Lifting seems like it could help your paddling but its kind of different with short bursts vs. longevity.
it depends on how you go about it. as the previous poster said, core work is extremely beneficial.
i would recommend the book "fit to surf". it's got a lot of good tips, techniques, & workouts that will help you as a surfer.
Absolutely... but not just lifting alone, at least according to a personal trainer that helped me work out a surfing-specific routine that I've been doing for many years. He said lifting alone can actually hurt more than help. Resistance training needs to be balanced out with cardio, endurance and flexibility training. Building muscle will increase your power, but all that muscle needs oxygen. Cardio and endurance training will help let your heart and lungs make the most of all that muscle. Flexibility will help you maintain a bigger range of motion... important for recovering from radical moves and might even help prevent injury.
So cross train, lift, bike, jog, stretch... it's all good... just don't over do any one.
Lifting weights has its obvious benefits but without other workouts it can hurt your surfing. Swimming, running, pushups, pullups, core work and yoga are all you need.
Lifting is a cornerstone for all athletics, but if it's the majority of your program, it can lead to less flexibility, unless you stretch....a lot.
exactly what he said. look at all the pro athletes out there especially football. even though they lift alot they probably do more cardio workouts and running more than lifting. but the main lift you wanna do is a clean that works almost every muscle in your body, and when you do lift have supplementals as well as the core heavy lifts only work the main big muscles where as with the supplementals you will work all of the smaller muscles.
http://www.crossfit.com/ This is well balanced.
Yes, lifting will help. It will make you stronger. Like everyone is saying. Balance it out. Lifting, cardio, swim, core, circuit training, yoga. You have to do the right combination of lifting. NOT ARNOLD power lifting, thats not functional. Check out Laird's stuff, he has a cross fit approach.
This is just one routine on youtube... There are more...

Rape: A Love Story (2005)
I have read enough work by Joyce Carol Oates to understand her view of a world in which women and young girls often suffer physical violence at the hands of men when they least expect it to happen to them. I know that she is not afraid to use brutal words and images to tell the stories of these women and to describe the criminals who go after them. All of that is included in Rape: A Love Story. But it is the second half of the book's title that hints at the most intriguing part of Teena Maguire's story.

Fitness machine gives Treo a workout
Our personal opinions about exercise notwithstanding, we grudgingly acknowledge that the convergence of consumer electronics and fitness equipment does make some sense. What better way is there, for instance, to get slovenly creatures like us onto cardio machines than games and iPods?
Yet we can't help but question the wisdom behind the "Elite Cross Trainer" from Star Trac. The main technological feature of this elliptical machine seems to be the ability to send personal fitness stats wirelessly and on the fly to a Palm device, according to Luxist. There's nothing wrong with keeping track of your … Read more

Light freezing drizzle and freezing fog will be possible tonight and early Friday morning south and east of a line from Ponca City to Enid to Clinton to Hobart. The threat area includes the OKC metro.
This is a situation where the amounts are not nearly as important as the type of precipitation. As a result, a thin glaze of ice will be possible on roadways creating potentially slick driving conditions for the Friday morning commute. Increasing north winds after 8 a.m. will help reduce the threat of icing during the late morning and afternoon hours.
Drivers are encouraged to check in early tomorrow morning on driving conditions for your area in case you need to give yourself extra time.

On Friday I flew up to Boston and while sitting at my gate as my flight continued to get delayed more and more, Kurt Thomas walked by. He was with his small child and his wife. Now, I didnt think much of it at the time, as Charlotte is a big connection airport, but then I realized he is a FA. He also would fit in well as a PF. Could he be a target? Could he have been in Charlotte about basketball or for some other reason? Interesting stuff.
I seem to have a weird ability to find NBA players at the airport, this flight Kurt Thomas, previous one from SFO to CLT Jrich sat a few rows in front of me.

Hello ssentinel, welcome to the forum. Since this is your first post, it would be good for you to head on over to the newcomers subforum, just two lines above the iPad 1 forum. Introduce yourself and take advantage of the forum by reading about the rules and tips and tricks of the forum.Quote:

As you can see, your post generates a whole lot of questions even before a solution can be found. It is always good to provide: the who, the what, the why, and the how, when posting a problem. Helps everyone else come to your rescue a whole lot faster.
thanks for the fast response, it is a first gen 3g 32gb, and is used, i cant answer the other questions, because i bought it in ebay the seller stated it was stuck in recovery mode, so i dont wich firmware or if it is already jb, and yes im using the latest itunes, and a windows 7 pc
Okay, the "iPad is stuck in recovery mode" - so what exactly is showing on the screen?
When you plug it into the PC, do you get any sound or see any attempt by your PC to load drivers? In other words, with the iPad connected, can you access or see it via Windows Explorer?
What happens when you try to put the iPad into DFU Mode? If you don't know what that is, or need help on putting an iPad into DFU Mode, see this link: http://www.ipadforums.net/ipad-hacking/27489-dfu-mode-dummies.html
Have you tried connecting it to the PC with an Apple-specific/iPad-specific USB cable? Have you tried connecting it to a different USB port on the PC (preferably one ON the PC, not a dock or USB hub)?
What happens when/if you reboot the iPad? To do (apologies if you already know): Hold both the power and home buttons until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo then appears (the slide to unlock screen may or may not appear). Once the logo appears, release the buttons. After a time, your homescreen will appear. Please note that it may take some time for the Apple logo to appear or for your homescreen to appear (or both). This is normal. Eventually, the homescreen will appear.
That's enough trouble-shooting questions for now. See if you can do any of the actions - and see if any of them help. Holler back when ready. Thanks.
i dont get any sound when i connect to the pc, i can put it in dfu mode but the pc is unable to recognize the ipad, ive been trying in different usb ports and different usb cables, the weird thing is that i actually can charge the ipad, im starting to think it may be a hardware problem, what can i do to know if i can repair it or if i have to buy a new usb port?
sorry for double posting, but the thread is kind of stuck like my ipad =), i send the ipad to a technician and he told me it was the usb port that was broken, im searching on ebay for the usb port and its $40-46, is there another place where i can buy that part cheaper?

"The true home of kings, the house of all centuries" are the words Napoleon used to describe a mix of classical Renaissance style the royal castle of Fontainebleau, located next to the centre of Fontainebleau (Seine-et-Marne), some sixty miles towards the south-east of Paris. Unesco declared the castle a World Heritage site in 1981. The famous horse-shoe shaped staircase, an iconic feature of the palace, is a work added during the reign of King Louis XIII, based on a Renaissance model. The improvements to the palace have been made continuously throughout the centuries (eight to be precise). In the 16th Century, Francis the first turned it into a masterpiece of architecture and decoration. As a result one can witness his personal gallery, the Trinity church and the bathroom, all sublime in their stylishness. Further still are the two boudoirs of Marie-Antoinette that Louis XVI offered to his wife. With over 1500 examples, this place houses one of the most important collections of old furniture in France, as well as an excellent collection of paintings. Within the parks and gardens, spread out over a 130 hectare plot, each sovereign has left his mark: a carp pond here, an ornamental statue of Diana there, not forgetting the Grand Parterre de le Nôtre and Le Vau, the biggest flowerbeds in Europe. For those interested in Marie Antoinette, Pariscityvision offers a combination of the Versailles and Fontainebleau tours.

Its name derives from the Gaelic for 'Field of Flowers' possibly due to the growing of flax in the past. The village was renowned once for its weavers, a distillery and the annual Paldie's Fair horse market.
On the opposite side of the Luther Water there is a parish church that was built as Fordoun Parish Church on a site known as a religious site of Kirkton of Fordoun since the 7th century. Reputedly this is the place of burial of St Palladius, the first Bishop pf the Christians of Ireland preceding Saint Patrick.
