Even the food is a work of art: freshly shucked oysters and a Michelin two-star meal at Manoir Inter Scaldes. It's a masterpiece for every sense.

Competition is, simply good: It's natural (as done by our biological ancestors, we still compete for survival in some cases, say, for example, survival of a business); it's what our country was founded upon; competition can promote creativity, provide a child with a goal; it can teach children how to lose and lose graciously; it's fun; it can be rewarding; it can help kids stand out as individuals...

Yet it may not be so simple:
A 2010 study of competitiveness among adolescents, by Hibbard and Buhrmester, concluded that competition can impact children's psychological well-being and social functioning in either a positive or a negative way, depending on the type of competition and upon a child's gender.
Competing to win (i.e. to dominate and outperform others) was found to be detrimental to girls' social relationships -- leading to fewer and less-close friendships -- and was linked to higher levels of depression (this was much less the case for boys) and to higher levels of loneliness.
Competing to excel (i.e. to perform well and surpass personal goals) was found to contribute to the well-being of both genders. It was linked to higher self-esteem and less depression for both genders, but was largely unrelated to social functioning.
Related: Top 10 Benefits of Sports for Kids
Competition is harmful: Mr. Alfie Kohn, author of 12 books about human behavior, including No Contest: The Case Against Competition, claims: The "very phrase 'healthy competition' is actually a contradiction in terms... Some things are inherently destructive. Competition, which simply means that one person can succeed only if others fail, is one of those things."
Kohn claims competition:
Undermines self-esteem, as kids can become "dependent on external sources of evaluation, as a result of competition: Your value is defined by what you've done."
Interferes with achievement by often causing kids to become anxious, which interferes with their concentration; by not allowing kids to share their talents and resources (unlike cooperation), such that kids can't learn from one another; by causing kids to try to be the best, thus distracting them from what they're supposed to be learning.
It makes people less interested in the task itself.
It hurts relationships, by fostering aggression, envy, etc.
Mr. Kohn has deemed competition to be a "recipe for hostility" with each child coming to regard others as obstacles to his or her own success.
Everything isn't a competition and as such, with regard to the question, 'Is competition good for our kids?' -- there is no best answer.
Related: Parenting In The Age of Trophy Kids
Competition's effect upon our children can depend upon many things, among them: the type of competition, the type of child (How does your child react to competition: does he see it as a source of stress or as a challenge?) and upon your own approach, as a parent. For example, how much emphasis do you place on winning, doing your best, or just having fun?
Winners train, losers complain… hangs at the end of one of the lap lanes at our pool. Whether or not I choose to race my son and daughter - to invite the element of competition into our swim and apparently into their development - is too big of a consideration to make in between crawl strokes and side breaths, I decide, today.
Instead, I turn my focus, as we all can, to the more-universal mantras that also hang solidly, above the ever-fluid water:
Hard Work: You can't get much done in life if you only work on the days when you feel good… Commitment: You're either in or you're out, there is no such thing as life in between… Work Hard: Good Things Will Happen…to which I nod, knowing that I will work hard, with my kids, to figure out what feels right and what feels good when it comes to approaching the competition they face inherently in their everyday lives and to inviting - or not - the competition that is optional…
"Race you?" I've changed my mind as I turn to the kids and ask. Upon "Go!" we dive into the water and start competing in full force, for better or for worse.

Ladies of the Gridiron | |
Spotlight on The Quake, a professional women's tackle football team. |
Ladies of the Gridiron (Briana Young, United States, 2010; 35 min.) When most think of American Football, then imagine raw, unbridled demonstrations of athletic might pushed to the max, but rarely do those images involve women. The Quake is a professional women's tackle football team out to break the glass ceiling of this traditionally all-male sport. These women embody the same dogged determination as their male counterparts, but without the money or fame. And beyond that, they must deal with a societal prejudice that keeps them on the periphery of professional sports, having to pay their own way even as other female athletes--such as those in the Lingerie League--draw a salary.

Holiday Orange Cookies
Adapted these from a few different recipes this year. Really liked the way they turned out for the holidays. Might be great with drizzled chocolate also.
1 cup Flour
1/2 tsp Salt
1 tsp Baking Powder + a small pinch extra
5 tbsp Butter - room temperature
1 cup White Sugar
3 Egg Yolks
2 tbsp Orange Juice
Rind from 1/2 a Large Orange (a heaping tablespoon)
Powdered Sugar to coat the cookies
1. In one bowl, add flour, salt and baking powder.
2. In another bowl, cream butter with sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Add yolks, orange juice and rind to the butter mix and then blend.
4. Add the dry ingredients and then make sure that it is well mixed.
5. Wrap in plastic wrap and place in refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
6. After the cookie dough is removed from the refrigerator, preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
7. The dough will be sticky, but roll into balls around 3/4" in diameter and then drench in powdered sugar. Place on a cookie sheet with parchment paper at least 2 inches apart.
8. Cook for 8-10 minutes and then let sit on the cookie sheet for around 2 more minutes before moving to a wire rack or paper towel.

Greetings,have heard this sound on other 6.0's,tried ear to dowel to motor,cannot isolate noise enough to diagnose.Any explanations please
- - - Updated - - -
add to;when hot at idle,like clockwork.Have friends frown on chevy 6.0 compared to other trucks i.e. other makes
03-07-2013, 02:23 PM #2these engines most have no problems up to 225,ooo mi. synthetic oils and good filters these engine are solid performers at this year model engine. with any engine even if it is a good design the oil used and the way it is operated and serviced will determine the useful life. most use 50% dexcool which I found insufficent . 65 % dexcool with distilled water works best.
- - - Updated - - -
this engine has lifters that are adjusted by these valves that hold oil. if the oil is with carbon they leak then you get the lifter tick sounds. could also be coolant entering the engine oil damaging these lifter valves from doing there job, ....
get some marvel mystery oil. add 5 OZ max to the engine oil. after a few mile s the sound should reduce or be gone. if so this would indicate the the oil used is not being replaced at the proper time. could be poor filter selection as well.
03-07-2013, 02:25 PM #3thanks,finally found on similar threads,thought is a out of adjustment roller rocker,to me it has to be just one(length of time between tick)
03-07-2013, 02:33 PM #4it can happen just one gets mucked up. try the marvel oil but only the amount I stated. I have no idea how much gunk your engine has in it. this product cleans and lubricates the internal engine parts , BUT it is NO solvent ! you use this to slowly remove the carbon and sludge. as the oil gets dirty you replace the oil/filter . after a period of cycles you will have a clean engine internally and the engine will quiet down. now if the cam is worn down then these valves can only adjust so much .
03-07-2013, 02:43 PM #5good idea,never heard a bad thing about marvel,will try,thanks,geo1
- - - Updated - - -
have to add,took truck to florida some time back,my proactive maintenance made me change the oil cooler lines,i made a new leak!allen plug on block that bolts to motor started spewing,had no way to fix enroute so the oil add. was 2 qts.to fillup.since then the oil is like a younger model of itself.

Robalo R200
Related Articles
Small boats with lower sticker prices are supposed to be bare-bones outfits, designed to whet buyers' appetites for boating before they move up. But what if an "entry level" boat is already chock full of standard amenities? It would look a lot like the Robalo R200, a small boat packing a lot inside.
The R200 is a center console designed to make the family-minded fisherman (or his wife) choose it rather than a comparably sized bowrider. It offers horseshoe-shape bow seating with removable cushions. You don't have to remove them to access the storage underneath, thanks to the easy-access latch system. The compartments are insulated and drain overboard, and serve as fish boxes or coolers. The recessed bow rail and side-mounted bow cleats keep hardware out of the way.
I consider the standard leaning post at the helm another big plus. Many builders of entry-level center consoles equip the boat with standard twin pedestal seats. The anodized aluminum post allows the driver the option to sit or stand, harbors a cooler underneath and sports the essential aft grab rail.

There is nothing more I love than starting bromance rumors, especially when it pertains to two actors I adore! The latest round of gossip come by the way of Colin Firth and George Clooney who were spotted holding hands and hugging it out on the red carpet at the 2012 Orange British Academy Film Awards at The Royal Opera House on Sunday, February 12th, 2012 in London, England.
While Stacy Keibler was nowhere in sight, our beloved Colin did have his supportive wife Livia by his side. The Italian beauty, who wore a Paul Smith tux made from ethical and organic New Zealand wool and silk, convinced her hubby and fellow actor Michael Fassbender to dress eco-friendly this evening.
Both men wore tuxedos made by Giorgio Armani from organic wool, with accents in recycled plastic bottles as part of the Green Carpet Challenge.
Livia founded the challenge to raise the profile of sustainable style at red carpet events. It's great that you can dress fabulous and do something good for the Earth at the same time!
You go girl!

Jonny Lang

Genres | Blues, gospel, rock |
Instruments | Vocals, guitar |
Years active | 1995–present |
Website | www.jonnylang.com |
Jonny Lang (born Jon Gordon Langseth, Jr., January 29, 1981) is an American blues, gospel, and rock singer, songwriter, guitarist and recording artist. Lang's music is notable for both his unusual voice, which at 13 was compared to that of a 40-year-old blues veteran,[1] and for his guitar solos. His solo patterns have especially been noted[who?] for his frequent use of wide vibratos.[citation needed] He has five albums that charted on the top 50 of the Billboard 200 chart and has won a Grammy Award for Turn Around.
Jonny Lang was born in Fargo, North Dakota, USA. He started playing the guitar at the age of twelve. He got his start playing guitar for his friends on the Vallager's porch at their lake place. He would play everything from modern hits to the classics; even performing an astounding rendition of Jimi Hendrix's take on the National Anthem that gave the campground security reasoning to pause, and not interrupt him. After his father took him to see the Bad Medicine Blues Band, one of the few blues bands in Fargo. Lang soon started taking guitar lessons from Ted Larsen, the band's guitar player. Several months after Lang began, he joined the band, which was then renamed Kid Jonny Lang & The Big Bang.
The band moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota, and independently released the album Smokin' when Lang was fourteen. Lang was signed to A&M Records in 1996. He released the critically acclaimed multi-platinum Lie to Me on January 28, 1997. The next album, Wander this World, was released on October 20, 1998 and earned a Grammy nomination. This was followed by the more soulful Long Time Coming on October 14, 2003. Lang also made a cover of Edgar Winter's "Dying to Live". Lang's 2006 album, the gospel-influenced Turn Around, won him his first Grammy Award.
In his earliest performing years, Lang always performed barefoot on stage, because "it feels good" and once in tribute to Luther Allison, a friend who had recently died. He has since given up that practice, after several near-accidents and electric shocks.
In more than ten years on the road, Lang has toured with the Rolling Stones, Buddy Guy, Aerosmith, B.B. King, Blues Traveler, Jeff Beck and Sting. In 1999, he was invited to play for a White House audience including President and Mrs. Clinton. Earlier that year he was selected by the newly elected Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura to perform at his Inaugural Ball. Lang also makes a cameo appearance in the film Blues Brothers 2000 as a janitor. In 2004, Eric Clapton asked Lang to play at the Crossroads Guitar Festival to raise money for the Crossroads Centre Antigua.
Lang also appears regularly as a part of the Experience Hendrix Tour along with many other well-known guitarists to pay tribute the deceased guitar legend.
Musical equipment[edit]
Jonny Lang originally used Benedict guitars but now mainly uses a Fender Telecaster Thinline made by the Fender Custom Shop. He also uses one of two Jonny Lang Signature Series Gibson Les Pauls he owns for some occasions. The Telecaster Thinline has a Spruce body, maple top and birdseye maple neck. He uses Bill Lawrence Pickups (500L Neck, 500XL Bridge) and a Seymour Duncan P-90 in the middle. He uses a Route 66 pedal of Visual Sound and a Vox 847 reissue Wah Wah pedal for some songs. Live, he plays through a pair of Fender Deluxe Reverb Reissue Amps. Jonny also used an arbiter Fuzz Face and an Electro Harmonix POG for The Experience Hendrix tour. Lang has also used Audiotech Guitar Products ABC Selector CCM on his 2005 acoustic tour.
The Fender Telecaster featured on the cover of Lie to Me is in fact not a Telecaster at all, but an original Fender Esquire. Upon filming the music video for the title track "Lie to Me" which took place in a San Francisco music store, the owner of the store suggested Jonny play the Esquire in the video. Jonny fell in love with the guitar and it was purchased and given to him as a gift. He continues to use it, but not as often as his Custom Shop Telecaster and Signature Series Les Paul.
Band personnel[edit]
From 1993 to 1996, Lang's backing band was The Big Bang. This group consisted of three founding members of the Bad Medicine Blues Band: Ted "Lightnin' Boy" Larsen on guitar, his brother Michael Rey Larsen on drums, and Jeff Hayenga on bass. Keyboardist Bruce McCabe joined The Big Bang in 1995 after Lang and this young band from Fargo impressed him with their set opening for McCabe's band at the time, The Hoopsnakes.
From 1996 to 2004, Lang's backing band included Paul Diethelm on guitar, Bruce McCabe on keyboards, Doug Nelson on bass and Billy Thommes on drums. Also appearing on keyboards during 2003 and 2004 was Donnie La Marca, filling in for McCabe during his break from touring. Nelson was killed in a traffic accident in 2000 and was replaced by Billy Franze. Franze was in turn replaced by Jim Anton in 2003. Saxophone player David Eiland was added in 2000, providing Lang with a foil for extended instrumental jams. In 2005, Lang replaced the entire lineup, except for Anton, and embarked on an acoustic tour. He performed with Wendy Alane Wright at the 2000 pre-Grammy party. Guitarist Reeve Carney was the band's opening act for several shows in 2005, as well as for the 2006 and 2007 tours. The new band also includes organist and Houston, Texas native Charles Jones, drummer Barry Alexander, and organist Bill Brown from Minneapolis.
The current band line up includes:
- Barry Alexander from Minneapolis, MN on drums
- James Anton from Minneapolis, MN on bass
- Akil Thompson from Nashville, TN on rhythm guitar
- Dwan Hill from Nashville, TN on keys
- Missi Hale from Los Angeles, CA on background vocals
New album[edit]
On September 17, 2013 Lang will release his first studio album in seven years, Fight for My Soul. He released a single from the album, through USA Today, called "Blew Up (The House)".[citation needed] The album will be released on September 2 in the UK and Europe.[citation needed] He will also tour the United States and Europe promoting his new album.[citation needed]
Personal life[edit]
Lang married Haylie Johnson on June 8, 2001. Lang and his wife share the same birthday, although she is one year older. They live in Los Angeles, California.[citation needed]
Lang has two older sisters, Stephanie and Heidi Jo. He also has one younger sister, Jessica ("Jesse"), who was a contestant on season 8 of American Idol. Actress Ashley Johnson (Growing Pains, What Women Want) is Lang's sister-in-law.
Conversion to Christianity[edit]
After a period of alcoholism and drug abuse, Jonny Lang became a Christian in 2000, which led him to stop substance abuse.[2][3] In an interview with Sara Groves on Christianity Today, Lang gave details about his conversion, assuring he had a supernatural experience with the Holy Ghost.[3] In his own words, he has said that he formerly "hated Christianity"[4] and "despised the things of God", but now he wants to share with others about Jesus' love.[5]
The songs "Only a Man" and "Thankful" from his album Turn Around, are about his belief in God. He has also co-written a couple of songs with Christian-music artist Steven Curtis Chapman, notably "My Love Remains".[6]

Take some vitamin C before catching Bieber Fever in Ottawa
- Ottawa Travel Guide
- |
- Monday, 29 October 2012 12:19
Ready to welcome Justin Bieber back to Canada? Luckily for those who travel to Ontario this November, they can catch the Canadian heartthrob at ScotiaBank Place on the 23rd. If his songs "Boyfriend," "All Around The World" and "As Long As You Love Me" aren't enough to lure travellers to Ottawa, then perhaps his opening act, Carly Rae Jepsen, is just enough icing on the cake.
Bieber Fever is the apt term for those who have caught the bug from this pop star who has seemingly gone from a small boy living near London, Canada, to mega status within the blink of an eye. With the help of YouTube and other sensations like Usher to guide him along the way, Bieber has become a sensation and doesn't show any signs of slowing down or stopping.

19 U.S. Code § 1671a - Procedures for initiating a countervailing duty investigation
Initiation by administering authority
A countervailing duty investigation shall be initiated whenever the administering authority determines, from information available to it, that a formal investigation is warranted into the question of whether the elements necessary for the imposition of a duty under section
(a) of this title exist.
Initiation by petition
Petition requirements
A countervailing duty proceeding shall be initiated whenever an interested party described in subparagraph (C), (D), (E), (F), or (G) of section
(9) of this title files a petition with the administering authority, on behalf of an industry, which alleges the elements necessary for the imposition of the duty imposed by section
(a) of this title, and which is accompanied by information reasonably available to the petitioner supporting those allegations. The petition may be amended at such time, and upon such conditions, as the administering authority and the Commission may permit.
Simultaneous filing with Commission
The petitioner shall file a copy of the petition with the Commission on the same day as it is filed with the administering authority.
Petition based upon a derogation of an international undertaking on official export credits
If the sole basis of a petition filed under paragraph (1) is the derogation of an international undertaking on official export credits, the Administering Authority shall immediately notify the Secretary of the Treasury who shall, in consultation with the Administering Authority, within 5 days after the date on which the administering authority initiates an investigation under subsection (c) of this section, determine the existence and estimated value of the derogation, if any, and shall publish such determination in the Federal Register.
Action with respect to petitions
Notification of governments
Upon receipt of a petition filed under paragraph (1), the administering authority shall—
Acceptance of communications
The administering authority shall not accept any unsolicited oral or written communication from any person other than an interested party described in section
(9)(C), (D), (E), (F), or (G) of this title before the administering authority makes its decision whether to initiate an investigation, except as provided in subparagraph (A)(ii) and subsection (c)(4)(D) of this section, and except for inquiries regarding the status of the administering authority's consideration of the petition.
Petition determination
In general
Time for initial determination
Except as provided in subparagraph (B), within 20 days after the date on which a petition is filed under subsection (b) of this section, the administering authority shall—
after examining, on the basis of sources readily available to the administering authority, the accuracy and adequacy of the evidence provided in the petition, determine whether the petition alleges the elements necessary for the imposition of a duty under section
(a) of this title and contains information reasonably available to the petitioner supporting the allegations, and
Extension of time
In any case in which the administering authority is required to poll or otherwise determine support for the petition by the industry under paragraph (4)(D), the administering authority may, in exceptional circumstances, apply subparagraph (A) by substituting "a maximum of 40 days" for "20 days".
Time limits where petition involves same merchandise as an order that has been revoked
If a petition is filed under this section with respect to merchandise that was the subject merchandise of—
a countervailing duty order that was revoked under section
(d) of this title in the 24 months preceding the date the petition is filed, or
a suspended investigation that was terminated under section
(d) of this title in the 24 months preceding the date the petition is filed,
the administering authority and the Commission shall, to the maximum extent practicable, expedite any investigation initiated under this section with respect to the petition.
Affirmative determinations
If the determinations under clauses (i) and (ii) of paragraph (1)(A) are affirmative, the administering authority shall initiate an investigation to determine whether a countervailable subsidy is being provided with respect to the subject merchandise.
Negative determinations
If the determination under clause (i) or (ii) of paragraph (1)(A) is negative, the administering authority shall dismiss the petition, terminate the proceeding, and notify the petitioner in writing of the reasons for the determination.
Determination of industry support
General rule
For purposes of this subsection, the administering authority shall determine that the petition has been filed by or on behalf of the industry, if—
Certain positions disregarded
Producers related to foreign producers
In determining industry support under subparagraph (A), the administering authority shall disregard the position of domestic producers who oppose the petition, if such producers are related to foreign producers, as defined in section
(4)(B)(ii) of this title, unless such domestic producers demonstrate that their interests as domestic producers would be adversely affected by the imposition of a countervailing duty order.
Special rule for regional industries
If the petition alleges that the industry is a regional industry, the administering authority shall determine whether the petition has been filed by or on behalf of the industry by applying subparagraph (A) on the basis of production in the region.
Polling the industry
If the petition does not establish support of domestic producers or workers accounting for more than 50 percent of the total production of the domestic like product, the administering authority shall—
Comments by interested parties
Before the administering authority makes a determination with respect to initiating an investigation, any person who would qualify as an interested party under section
(9) of this title if an investigation were initiated, may submit comments or information on the issue of industry support. After the administering authority makes a determination with respect to initiating an investigation, the determination regarding industry support shall not be reconsidered.
Notification to Commission of determination
The administering authority shall—
notify the Commission immediately of any determination it makes under subsection (a) or (c) of this section, and
if the determination is affirmative, make available to the Commission such information as it may have relating to the matter under investigation, under such procedures as the administering authority and the Commission may establish to prevent disclosure, other than with the consent of the party providing it or under protective order, of any information to which confidential treatment has been given by the administering authority.
Information regarding critical circumstances
If, at any time after the initiation of an investigation under this part, the administering authority finds a reasonable basis to suspect that the alleged countervailable subsidy is inconsistent with the Subsidies Agreement, the administering authority may request the Commissioner of Customs to compile information on an expedited basis regarding entries of the subject merchandise. Upon receiving such request, the Commissioner of Customs shall collect information regarding the volume and value of entries of the subject merchandise and shall transmit such information to the administering authority at such times as the administering authority shall direct (at least once every 30 days), until a final determination is made under section
(a) of this title, the investigation is terminated, or the administering authority withdraws the request.
