Get wet and wild at the Upper Gatineau Whitewater Festival
- Ottawa Travel Guide
- |
- Friday, 10 August 2012 17:29
During the last weekend of August, Ottawa adrenaline junkies will flock to the Upper Gatineau Whitewater Festival for what has become a staple event in the community. Visitors can take family friendly adventures in large whitewater rafting boats or sign up for a single kayak race - which are reserved only for highly trained athletes due to the sometimes dangerous rapids on the Gatineau River.
History of the festival
About 15 year ago, canoeists rediscovered the river as a perfect destination for thrill-seeking visitors and even locals who had never braved the rapids. Pretty soon, the waterway became extremely popular, attracting thousands of people throughout the year. Small businesses began to pop up at the head of the river, promoting the local economy and strengthening the community.
To prevent hydroelectric development on this stunning river, kayakers and canoeists began the festival, which raises awareness about the waterway and promotes environmental preservation in the region.
Pitch a tent
Those who travel to Canada looking for an off-the-grid vacation may be pleased to know that they can pitch their tents at the nearby Maniwaki High School field, where they can pass stories between locals and international travellers making their way to Gatineau for this fun festival. All participants can enjoy meals together every day, making this an ideal activity for those who want to have a unique holiday experience.
Festival events
There's more to the Whitewater Festival than races and daring feats down the river. Throughout the weekend, there will be live entertainment provided by La Vespree, along with a number of auctions and exhibitors that will set up stands for those who want to purchase rafting equipment.
Of course, no rafting festival would be complete without awesome races on the river, and Gatineau event planners certainly do not disappoint. Visitors can book a rafting trip - ideal for families with children over the age of 15 - and careen down the river with a highly trained guide. Beginning kayakers and canoers can also reserve a spot on the Saturday morning trip down Desert River, which features easy class I and II rapids and a rugged and mountainous terrain. First-time Canada visitors should invest in a waterproof camera to capture some truly unforgettable photos.

Robson faces battle to be fit for the Australian Open
7:00am Thursday 9th January 2014 in Sport
Laura Robson's preparations for the Australian Tennis Open lay in tatters after she pulled out of last weekend's Hobart International with a persistent wrist injury.
The 19-year-old from Wimbledon also had to withdraw from the Auckland Open – the season's curtain raiser – the previous week with the same ailment.
Robson, who reached the third round Down Under last season, remains in Friday's draw for the first round at Melbourne Park, with play due to start on Monday.
But with Robson's compatriots Tara Moore, Heather Watson and Johanna Konta facing three tricky rounds of qualifiers, there is every chance Great Britain will not have a representative in the women's singles this year.

Google's search dominance continues to grow
Google accounted for 55 per cent of all search queries carried out in the US in the month of April, according to Nielsen/NetRatings data released Tuesday. Nearly 3.8 billion Google searches were carried out in the period, a 42 per cent increase on last year's results. Main rival Yahoo! Search came in a distant second with just …
Microsoft have not got a chance, I even use google to search their MSDN site, instead of Live.
Yahoo never returns anything of use and I think a lot of the time they sneak in an Advert in the results.
Ask.com, do they even have a search algorythm or is it just microsoft indexing ?
No, they're all terrible
Google just happens to be the best of a bad bunch. But Microsofts search technology is terrible... my tip for finding stuff on their knowledgebase is to seach for the most unrelated thing to your problem you can think of... Its the best chance to find what you want.
Little is good
Google may be going to far if they decide to give multiple search results for videos, images, webpages etc. all on the one page.
Currently the nice simple design and good search results is what keeps me and everyone else coming back - unlike Yahoo and MSN I am not inundated with crap I do not want to see. If I want an image I click the images tab and do a search from there, if i want a video I just type "video" next to my search query. If it's news I am after then the News tab does it... It's clean simple and nice.
I am hoping they don't go a step too far in their quest for dominance and spoil one of the aspects of Google which keeps people coming back, they may have complex algorithms working for us behind the scenes but its the simplicity of it all that everyone likes.
More searches because more useless results?
Maybe the number of searches has increased because people are having to do more searches to get the results they need?
You're trying to find out why your laptop has a problem, so you type in the model number, and all you get are those "deals" websites. So you refine your search and again, the top 200 results are sales sites, some from the other side of the world. Completely and utterly useless. So you revise the search again, and again, and again... until you get lucky and the query appears verbatim on some website which is all you really wanted in the first place. But instead you had to do a half dozen searches. I don't remember it being as bad a few years ago, good results were easier to find.
If you're in the US, use Goodsearch instead. Yeah, they use Yahoo, but you get money for your favorite charity. And if you don't have one, try Corgiaid :-)

Got to hand it to HP. The big-time printer and computer company is living up to its claim of environmental friendliness with an Eco Solutions program that includes an ink-jet printer made of 83 percent recycled plastics and a line of products bearing an Eco Highlights label.
In addition to being made of recycled plastic, the Deskjet D2545 is Energy Star-compliant. It uses a moderate 16 watts when printing and less than 1 watt in standby mode (also known as "off"). In addition, the printer uses HP 60 ink cartridges that are molded from recycled plastic resins made from recycled (shredded) ink cartridges and water bottles.
So, you're wondering, how much more does it cost? It's $45, and not $45 more. Just $45 and available at Wal-Mart and HP's online store.
The D2545 and three other new printers, the LaserJet P4015x, LaserJet P4515x, LaserJet P4515xm, are the first HP products to bear an Eco Highlights label that includes environmental attributes such as reduced energy consumption, ease of recycling and whether they are Energy Star-rated. And this summer HP plans to introduce a printer that features recycled plastic derived from the company's "closed loop" plastic recycling system, which incorporates a variety of post-consumer recycled plastics, from HP inkjet cartridges to water bottles.
HP also announced a way to package its high-end printers that cuts the volume of packaging materials needed to ship these products in half.

Category: Electoral Politics
Huffington Post reporter Laura Bassett interviewed NOW President Terry O'Neill about why the support of women voters has shifted to Obama in new poll: "As we get closer to the election, what women will be looking for is for both candidates to proactively talk to women about the issues that matter most to them. Women's jobs, women's pay, and women's reproductive health."
Read More...Karen Tumulty reports for The Washington Post: "At a moment when gender politics is thick in the air, it is a good time to reconsider another spring, exactly 20 years ago, when an unprecedented wave of women set their sights on Washington. That was the election that was supposed to change everything. But it didn't — not on the scale once expected."
Read More...NOW President Terry O'Neill was a guest panelist on NPR/WAMU's The Diane Rehm Show discussing the War on Women and the Democrat/Republican battle over women voters: "It's absolutely astonishing that the conservative forces and the Republican leadership somehow think that they can win by attacking birth control."
Read More...Adele M. Stan writes for AlterNet: "It says quite a lot about the state of the Republican Party that the right-wing extremist Rick Santorum -- a politician so despised by his own Pennsylvania constituents that he lost his U.S. Senate seat by an 18-point margin -- is now the frontrunner for the GOP presidential nomination."
Read More...Editors of The New York Times write: ". . . the message from Iowa was crystal clear: Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum, Ron Paul, Jon Huntsman Jr., Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry all stand ready to restrict a woman's right to make her own childbearing decisions and deny essential health care to millions of women."
Read More...Katha Pollitt writes for The Nation: "What is it with progressive mancrushes on right-wing Republicans? For years, until he actually got nominated, John McCain was the recipient of lefty smooches equaled only by those bestowed upon Barack Obama before he had to start governing. . . . Now Ron Paul is getting the love."
Read More...NOW President Terry O'Neill writes on The Huffington Post: "As the president of NOW, I hear from a lot of women (and men). Many of them are outraged right now, and they're asking the same question: Can this be real -- is the White House actually caving in to the radical right on birth control?"
Read More...NOW Kansas State Coordinator Kari Ann Rinker for RH Reality Check: "I expected to find broad support and encouragement from a largely Democratic Party crowd anxiously anticipating entry into the President's speech. Instead, my group was met with hostility. Only some of the people were supportive of our message. One man waiting in line said to me, "If your mom had used birth control, you wouldn't be here!" I asked him if he was opposed to birth control…just to clarify his position and, yes…he confirmed that he was."
Read More...Jezebel: "In response to allegations that Herman Cain is a philandering gropemaster, his campaign has launched a new Women For Herman Cain section on its website. On it, female supporters of the Georgia businessman are encouraged to share their stories and leave messages of support."
Read More...Katha Pollitt for the Nation: "Who matters more to President Obama, 271 Catholic bishops or millions upon millions of sexually active Catholic women who have used (or—gasp!—are using right this minute) birth control methods those bishops disapprove of? Who does Obama think the church is—the people in the pews or the men with the money and power? We're about to find out."
Read More...Dahlia Lithwick for the Slate: "Conservatives aren't just defending Herman Cain. They're denying the very existence of sexual harassment."
Read More...Jason Linkins for Huffington Post: "If you're trying to keep up with the themes that underpin the GOP attacks on Elizabeth Warren, well, good luck to you. Way back when, her affiliation with Harvard got her branded an elitist. More recently, her support for the Occupy Wall Street movement branded her a dyed-in-the-wool socialist and middle-class rabblerouser. But now, her opponents are back pursuing the elitist angle, trying to drive a wedge between her and the Occupying 99 percent by pointing out that she's too good at capitalism to represent the poor."
Read More...Jonathan Martin & Maggie Hagerman & Anna Palmer & Kenneth P. Vogel for POLITICO: "During Herman Cain's tenure as the head of the National Restaurant Association in the 1990s, at least two female employees complained to colleagues and senior association officials about inappropriate behavior by Cain, ultimately leaving their jobs at the trade group, multiple sources confirm to POLITICO."
Read More...Jennifer Steinhauer for the New York Times: "The 2012 elections are likely to mark the new 'year of the woman' in the Senate. For better or worse."
Read More...Laura Bassett writing for the Huffington Post: "Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum said on a radio show last week that the GOP's strategy for reducing 'the Democratic advantage' should be to marry off all the single mothers who 'look to the government for help.'"

Dunnes Stores chief Margaret Heffernan has clashed with the National Asset Management Agency (NAMA) over a bid to wind up her company.
She has told the agency it will be held responsible for the "very significant losses" her company will "inevitably" experience if a petition to wind up her retail giant is pursued.
The non-payment of some €21.6 million for a shopping center development in Co. Kilkenny, where Dunnes agreed to be the anchor store, is at the center of the dispute.
A full hearing of a winding-up petition at the Commercial Court has been fixed for hearing on December 14.
Dunnes employs 18,000 people and has about 130 retail stores throughout Ireland.
At an initial hearing on Monday, the court was told that Dunnes is "robustly solvent" but unwilling to pay the money to construction company Holtglen Ltd, which is insolvent with loans gone into NAMA, the agency established by the government in 2009 to address the serious crisis in the Irish banking sector as a result of loans given to developers.
The Commercial Court was told that Dunnes was unwilling to pay €21.6 million owed to Holtglen on several grounds, including concerns about the viability of the shopping center at Ferrybank, just inside Co. Kilkenny and near Waterford city.
In strongly worded letters to NAMA chief executive Brendan McDonagh, Heffernan described the center as "an unmitigated disaster." She said the winding-up petition was "an abuse of process."
She wrote that it cannot be NAMA's belief that Dunnes was insolvent and that any petition to wind up the company on grounds of insolvency was not justified.
She insisted that the "mere presentation" of the petition would damage Dunnes and Ireland. Advertising the petition would simply exacerbate that harm.
The court heard that NAMA wrote to Dunnes on October 30 warning that, unless the company paid €21.6 million to Holtglen within seven days, there would be a petition to wind the group up on grounds that it was unable to pay its debts.
Brian O'Moore, counsel for Dunnes, said the group wanted talks with NAMA. He said the interests of NAMA and Dunnes were similar, and it made no sense and was a waste of time and money seeking to wind up Dunnes.
Last March, summary judgment was granted for €20.4 million to Holtglen against Dunnes. That was after a court upheld an arbitrator's award to Holtglen arising from a 2007 agreement to build the center for €37 million.

Performing Arts Programs
Performing Arts
Workhouse Film is a series of film screenings that usually take place on the third Saturday of each month in the theater of building W-3. Oftentimes a relevant speaker or presentation is offered as part of the film screening. Workhouse Film also supports annual film screenings such as the Clifton Filmfest and the Workhouse's Cinema Under the Stars movies on the Workhouse quad.
ArtNotes is a monthly performing arts series celebrating the union of the performing and visual arts and the soulful inspiration that both can provide. The ArtNotes series takes place during the fall and winter months in both the Workhouse Gallery (building W-16 second floor) and the new W-3 Theatre (in building W-3). High quality music and dance ensembles are featured in an intimate setting and attendees are often able to enjoy the latest Workhouse exhibitions in the same setting.
Ballroom Social Dances & Chef's Table are two special Workhouse series that feature ballroom dances and culinary classes – together it's Date Night at the Workhouse! Ballroom Social Dances feature dancing, complimentary refreshments and a cash bar. Led by the Workhouse's professional ballroom instructors, a mini-lesson featuring a different dance focus each month precedes the open dance. Chef's Table is a limited-seating class with the Workhouse Chef who teaches couples how to prepare a unique dinner. Combined with the Ballroom Social Dance, couples can make it a complete night with both dinner and dancing. These two series are usually held on the third Saturday of each month in building W-16 – Chef's Table in the first floor café and Ballroom Social Dances in the second floor Gallery.
Art of Movement is a premier mind and body center on the Workhouse campus featuring fully equipped studios that offer programs and classes for all ages and abilities in the areas of Yoga, Pilates, Tai Chi, Balletone, Nia, Kukuwa Dance, Hula, Hip Hop, and Kempo Martial Arts, among others.
Art for a Change! was designed to assist local schools in areas of low income and that would not otherwise have necessary funds by allowing their students to experience theater and art programs. Since the Workhouse's Youth Arts Center opened in late 2011, the focus has been on bringing field trips to the Center's new 100-seat theater to allow these students the experience of a live theater program. The Commonwealth of Virginia's Standards of Learning for arts education serves as the basis for the development of the study guides and curriculum enhancements in each theater program that is attended by schools.
Other Arts Events & Programs are offered annually by the Workhouse such as the Youth Arts Celebration, Art Out Loud, Mt. Vernon Nights at the Workhouse, and other seasonal programs. Please visit our website calendar for more information about these special events.

Summary: Carolina Maria de Jesus (1915-1977), nicknamed Bitita, was a destitute black Brazilian woman born in the rural interior who migrated to the industrial city of Sa=o Paulo in search of work and a better life. She was self-taught and enjoyed a degree of celebrity after the publication in 1960 of her diary under the title, Quarto de Despejo (The Garbage Room), which became the best selling book in Brazilian history. Translated into more than a dozen languages, it sold ov ...show moreer 300,000 copies in English hardcover alone, as Child of the Dark. Bitita's Diary, drafted just prior to her death, covers her early life in the 1920s and 1930s. Originally published in French as Journal de Bitita and appearing now for the first time in the English language, Bitita's Diary is the most important document testifying to the hardships of lower-class black Brazilian women ever written. Offering extensive details about race and race relations, religion in rural Brazil (both Roman Catholicism and spiritism), life in small towns and cities of the interior, sexual intimidation, and the hardships of sharecropping, Carolina provides an insightful and moving glimpse of the Brazilian Revolution of 1930 from the vantage point of a poor person caught up in its promise. ...show less

Recovering from yet another relationship breakup, I am slowly getting my bearings back. This one was so promising! I thought I really had found The One this time! And then, poof, it all blew up – no magic here. Again. Maybe I am just not made for a relationship. Or maybe I just keep picking the wrong guys. Or maybe it just is time to build my life, of which I have done little. Although I am almost 40, my life so far has centered around two things: my divorce and my son. The divorce started shortly after my son was born. He is now 16. Yes, I know, it's a darn long divorce. Tell me about it. And it's still not over – but that's another story…
So, maybe it's time to build my life now, to really look at what I want to do, to embrace being single, to give up on the dream of riding into the sunset with my savior. I've found some joy in singlehood before. Funny thing is, whenever I start enjoying myself, I end up in a relationship. As if I am trying to distract myself. It's scary to walk life by yourself when everybody around you seems coupled. My parents have been married forever. Their friends are married. Their brothers and sisters are married, except an aunt who is somewhat eccentric and an uncle who committed suicide. No wonder I have the notion in my head that I should be coupled, that being single is just an interim state. It is slowly but surely dawning on me that maybe it's time to come out as single. Yes, just like gays and lesbians had to consciously proclaim their otherness, their homosexuality, it's time for me to embrace being single, to consciously proclaim that I am single and that I want to build my life as a single woman. I am not waiting for a guy to carry me off. I am not waiting for a soulmate anymore. It's scary, yes, but it's also liberating. And, yes, the conventional house of cards is collapsing onto me, driving home self-doubt: Can I really be happy and single? Well, I've proven several times now that I can be really unhappy coupled, so why not try being single for a change? Maybe that'll work better. Maybe I'll actually be happy when I am very obviously in control of my happiness instead of pretending someone else is. Yes, there's the little voice in my head that whispers that this might make me a better partner. Maybe. I guess there's still some social learning to unlearn. And there is the expectation to let go off that I will find true fulfillment only through a partner: the internalized matrimania. I have spent 40 years building a life that I didn't really choose. It's time to start making my own bricks and start living!
And, yet, when I didn't receive the I-still-love-you email from my former boyfriend, I notice disappointment. Somewhere in there, I still define my self-worth through the attention I get from men, boyfriends in particular. If they write short emails it must be because I am not worthy of a longer email. And I feel I have to prove to them that I am! With chagrin, I realize that I haven't moved on from these internalized beliefs that I am somehow less of a human being when I am single; that I can only find true happiness through a relationship. As if building a relationship is a cakewalk. What myths surface when one pays attention! So, what is stopping me from truly embracing being single? Well, there is some positive stuff there: I have experienced the wonderful side of relationships, the sharing that goes on, the automatic companionship. All that comes at a price, again and again, and that price seems rather steep for the benefits. The longing remains, the longing for this sharing that I haven't been able to duplicate anywhere else. Or maybe it's just that I didn't notice it with friends because somehow it's expected there. It's just what friends do. Finding a friend you can also have sex with seems to be the cherry on the cake; somehow that sex thing changes everything. As if it magically transforms everything and I'd live happily ever after. Only it is not true. And I know that. Yet, somewhere, the beliefs surrounding relationships have dug themselves deep into my psyche: internalized matrimania.
Then there are the negative things that keep me from happily single ever after. The fear that, deep down, there just must be something wrong with me because I cannot find a partner. It's not normal. If only I could fix that one thing, miraculously the perfect partner would emerge and we'd live happily ever after. As if. The voice is there that nags that I am just trying to hide the fact that I am incapable of building a lasting relationship by becoming the posterchild single woman. The voice is whispering that it's not really a choice, I didn't reject anyone but I was rejected, so it is not for the right reasons and therefore there must be something wrong with me. That's called twisted thinking in psychology. I'll call it internalized singlism. It all boils down to one thing, though: There is something wrong with me. What that might be remains a mystery, a secret even to myself. And reality shows that I am not that horrible to be around because there are people who do enjoy my company. Imagine that. Repeatedly even. Maybe even my former boyfriend, less the sex part. And if not, I'll enjoy life by myself, surrounded by friends.

The drought-tolerant Parry's agave (Agave parryi) is a striking accent plant for the xeriscape garden. It forms heavily toothed, compact rosettes of gray-blue, sword-like leaves with a dark spine at the tip of each leaf. Typical of agaves, the plant sends up a flowering spike only after several years of growth. The towering 12- to 18-foot flower stalk produces pink to red buds that open to yellow flowers. The common name century plant comes from the incorrect belief that agaves grow 100 years before blooming. Parry's agave is found in southwestern New Mexico and central Arizona on rocky, open slopes and in woodlands, as well as in the Arizona chaparral.
Plant Facts Common name: Parry's agave, hardy century plant, mescal Botanical name: Agave parryi Plant type: Perennial succulent Height: Leaves 12 inches long; flower panicle on stalk 12 to 18 feet tall Zones: 8 to 10, though hardiness varies depending on plant habitat. Check for cold tolerance at the nursery where you buy it. Family: Agavaceae Growing conditions

At Iowa State, we have traditionally been able to recruit good backs. I'd prefer to recruit bigger, more athletic backs. Theoretically, getting a big offensive line should be one of our strengths as well. I wouldn't mind going to either a Pistol or Wisconsin-type of offense. The Big 12's weakness is usually smaller defensive lines, so this type of offense could exploit that. It seems like our offensive line has a pretty decent size...they are just incredibly soft.

I really wonder what will happen here. PR isn't the type of guy to sit around and do nothing. I think he is a pretty thoughtful guy and able to look at things objectively. I think he has done that in the past. Lot of questions have to be answered here. Guys, we had 3 first team All B12 defensive players and we couldn't put enough first downs together to keep them off the field for a blow. Granted Jake was hurt for a few games, there is a fundamental problem there.
Even with our D not playing well our O should have easily been able to put up at least some points in three quarters against the worst (... um... second worst ..) bowl team playing this year.
The problem is the scheme. Even Tulsa ran a bunch of plays from under center. Quick snap, quick handoff, O-line just blasts off the ball and gain some yards. Every freaking play we run is the same. QB right in the middle of the field, 3 seconds to decide what to do, and no gain. We run no mis-direction, so the D is never out of position. All they have to do is stay where they are and wait. Watch all the best teams, they run one play that works so much and is so easy. Start under center. Play action fake to the tailback going one way. QB rolls out the other way, while the whole defense goes with the fake. The TE drags across the field, easy 8-10 yard completion. Or bunch the receivers, and run a bunch of crossing routes, confuse the defense. We just look like the easiest team in the world to defend. If Mess wants to change the scheme, give him a chance. If not, get someone else.
Man, lets hire the Tulsa OC. If that guy can make it work with Cody green, he can make it work here. Greg Peterson Profile - Tulsa Official Athletic Site
The spread offense may still be the system for us. The spread helps the lower recruits teams (normally like us) match up with higher end recruiting teams. But a more physical run game helps cold weather teams. Also, it appears to me that our offensive line is the strength in our recruiting. Thus, I am torn - spread or smash mouth? Smash mouth is Iowa - boring and no success. We have a hell of a lot better speed recruits in Texas and Florida then they do. Let's go with the middle - pro style like under McCarney.

CFH HMagic bball season. Let my fred's Four Horsemen ride.
Our pass offense is horizontal, which is not good when you already lack playmakers. Our run game was susceptible to TFLs even when we had a powerful Oline (delayed, from the shotgun, and based on the QB correctly reading unblocked defenders). The play-calling after the first few series is rarely thinking more than one pay out. It was a mistake to go with this scheme in 2008. Choosing Mess to run it in 2012 was an even worse decision. What does CPR have to go on to think this offense and Mess will make the improvement needed?

He needs to go. Offense struggled all year. qb's are not developing, and defense left on field all day long all year.

A day or so before Halloween 2003, Victor Bach, 71, the handsome, soft-spoken owner of Western Plumbing & Heating Co., confronted his much-younger wife, Kathleen, about her mismanagement of family finances.
Or perhaps that's not what happened. Instead, in late October 2003, Victor Bach might have huddled with his wife to figure out what to do about their joint mismanagement of the family's finances.
Or maybe, in an incident completely unrelated to the Bachs' breathtakingly out-of-whack bank passbooks, some random hoodlums cooked up a scheme having nothing to do with the family's finances, to break into the plumbing company and look for loot.
Whichever events seeded the ensuing incident at Western Plumbing on Oct. 31, 2003, the aftermath is clear. That evening, police found the white-haired Victor Bach bludgeoned to death in his Mission neighborhood plumbing shop.
"Nothing was taken. He was wearing a $5,000-plus watch. He had credit cards, car keys," said Bach's sister, Sandra Hayes. "This was not a professional hit. I don't think they do things up close and personal like that."
More than three years later, Kathleen Bach is scheduled to face a San Francisco jury in February on charges that she embezzled $1.9 million from trust funds and business accounts under her husband's purview. But there's no indication that police are anywhere near solving Victor Bach's murder, or determining which of the aforementioned scenarios might have presaged Victor Bach's death.
In lawsuits and public statements, Victor Bach's siblings hypothesize the first scenario, where Victor Bach confronts his wife about stealing just before his death. A lawsuit filing earlier this month, which suggests the couple were in cahoots in looting a family trust, suggests the second scenario, where the two might have discussed joint culpability. And previously quoted statements in Kathleen Bach's defense suggest the death was the result of an unrelated break-in gone awry.
Inspector Antonio Casillas returned a call regarding the case late Friday, but we were unable to reach him Monday. But Bach's brother and sister say police officials have led them to believe that the murder investigation ran cold more than two years ago, despite dogged and expensive efforts by the family to conduct their own parallel investigation into the killing.
This situation of unsolved murders is not uncommon, to put it mildly.
According to figures compiled by the Office of Legislative Analyst at the request of Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi, out of 166 San Francisco murders since 2004, the city has convicted a single suspected killer. That's right: just one murder conviction on the killings during the past three years.
Victor Bach's bizarre murder mystery seems to stand out as an example of this appalling record. He was a prominent man whose family has aggressively prodded police. Yet as with most killings in this city, the murderer remains at large.
"San Francisco is not the county you want your homicide in if you're one of the victim's family," notes Victor Bach's brother Kerry Bach.
Instead of waiting for Victor Bach's case to go cold, the family has taken up where they believe police left off.
Since the 2003 killing, Bach and other family members have spent more than $90,000 on their own parallel investigation. They've hired a private investigator, filed a wrongful death civil lawsuit alleging Kathleen Bach was behind the killing, and lobbied to obtain more than $100,000 in award money now offered for information leading to the arrest of a murder suspect.
In the latest twist, the family has paid for a billboard to be installed this January in Redding, where Kathleen Bach has most recently resided. It will urge passersby to call the SFPD with possible information about the Victor Bach murder.
"Myself, my sister, and one of Victor's children have taken out equity lines on our houses, and others have pitched in what they can out of pocket," said Kerry Bach, in reference to the family's efforts to supplement the SFPD investigation.
"To put it simply, we have been trying to get the police off the dime," added Hayes, who lives in San Diego.
Disgruntled family members aren't necessarily the best source for assessing the diligence of police detectives in solving a murder investigation. Bach and Hayes, however, claim detectives have failed to follow up on leads unearthed by their private investigator. And they complain SFPD inspectors failed to drive the three hours to Shasta County to conduct interviews.
But without hearing from the police department, it's impossible to assess whether this is an extraordinarily complex and no-clues case of the sort that might befuddle the most diligent detectives. And we can't be sure that detectives don't have good reason to believe it's prudent to wait until Kathleen Bach's embezzlement trial is complete before advancing the murder case further.
We do know, however, thanks to the recent report requested by Mirkarimi, that the vast majority of San Francisco murder cases seem to go nowhere.
Victor Bach's murder is notable among the city's unsolved murders in that it's accompanied by a fascinating family drama.
Kalman Apple, a Los Angeles filmmaker whose 2000 short movie Speed for Thespians was nominated for an Academy Award, still spends time mulling over the events surrounding the death of Victor Bach. Not because he plans on making a movie about them though he acknowledges someone else could. He simply can't get straight in his mind how his close family friend, Victor Bach, could have stood by while his wife Kathleen Bach apparently looted Kalman Apple's inheritance.

Of course, Keith jumped from regular stardom to superstardom largely on the strength of 2002's swaggering "Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue (The Angry American)," which made him a spokesman for traditional Americanism. That song closed his show as he and Nugent played identical red, white and blue guitars while the audience was showered with red, white and blue confetti. Just before that, he'd done his other ode to the troops, "American Soldier." The combined force of all of that was so overpowering that his encore, a nicely raucous version of Bob Seger's "Fire Down Below," seemed little more than an afterthought.
The show unfurled at Tulsa's Maxwell Convention Center, an 8,500-seat house in Keith's home state that was almost -- but not quite -- sold out. The crowd seemed to be the traditional country music audience, including a lot of young children, although a few patrons gave visual evidence that they were there for the Nuge.
Keith's 90-minute-plus show began with a video, projected onto the giant curtain in front of the stage, that depicted him and his dog riding to a rehearsal in a Ford truck (a tour sponsor). When they can't get in the building, Toby and the truck take matters into their own hands and pull the building down -- which was the cue for the curtain to disappear. Immediately, Keith and his nine-piece band and female singer-dancer were delivering "Stays in Mexico," his recent up-tempo ode to inhibition-dropping, as pyrotechnic effects whirled and exploded like giant Roman candles.
Keith followed with another rocker, 2000's "Country Comes to Town," which gave him the opportunity to reinforce the evening's motif by suggesting anyone who didn't want to call him an American could "kiss my American ass."
When the three horn players in the band weren't rocking out with their instruments atop the risers, they were doing dance routines, usually accompanied by the visually and vocally stunning backup singer. The visuals were further augmented by a sharp set emulating a bar's interior and use of three giant video screens, including one directly behind the band.
Keith's repertoire was mostly of the greatest hits variety, stretching back to 1993's "Should've Been a Cowboy." A few big songs, notably "My List" and "You Shouldn't Kiss Me Like This," were absent, but most of the rest were there. On "Beer for My Horses," his No. 1 duet with Willie Nelson, Nelson sang his part from the video screens in a pre-recorded segment that was cleverly and seamlessly integrated with Keith's live performance.
Songwriting partner Scotty Emerick did a guest turn as he and Keith performed a three-song acoustic set consisting of Emerick's single, "I Can't Take You Anywhere," and two numbers Keith called "bus songs," which he defined as original tunes they like to play on the bus while knowing they're not particularly commercial. The two have been doing both of those numbers -- "The Taliban Song" and the one about smoking dope with Willie -- live for a couple of years now.
The other guest performer was Keith's daughter, Krystal, a student at the University of Oklahoma. She and her dad sang the classic pop tune, "Mockingbird," which they recorded for his current Greatest Hits 2 album.
The flag-waving content of Nugent's six-song opening turn made Keith look restrained. In fact, the veteran rocker came out actually waving a flag, sporting a white beard and camo hat that made him look like a cross between a B-western sidekick and one of the guys from Molly Hatchet.
Playing with bass and drums, Nugent ground out his fabled hard rock licks beneath a gigantic U.S. flag, integrating odes to the president, the troops, the police and the "American spirit." He even led the crowd in a manic pledge of allegiance.
Nugent and the boys played a couple of his hits, "Stranglehold" and "Cat Scratch Fever." Two other songs, "Great White Buffalo" and "Fred Bear," spoke of his love of hunting and the outdoors. Apparently, so did a furry tail that he wore, apparently to suggest his kinship to the animals he kills and eats.
His final number was "Kiss My Ass," in which he screamed the phrase over and over again above ear-numbing licks, each time appending the name of a different liberal or foreigner who had incurred his displeasure. Somewhere in there, a life-sized effigy of Saddam Hussein was hoisted about the stage, so that Nugent could put an arrow through its heart with a red, white and blue bow.
"Kiss my ass! God bless America!" Nugent shouted, and then left. And looking at the empty stage after this assault on the senses was like staring into a smoking bomb crater.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Cindy,
Why can't I reach my weight-loss goal? I have lost 33 pounds since last September and have 10 more to go, but it just won't come off! I am doing the same thing I did to lose the 33 pounds and I am so frustrated. In fact, I even walk farther and have given up my weekly sweet treat, but still no luck. I would love some advice for getting rid of the last 10 pounds. -- Vicky
Dear Vicky,
Finding it next to impossible shedding those last few stubborn pounds is frustrating, but also really common. The closer you come to your ideal weight, the more those pounds hang on for dear life.
The bad news is, what worked for you up to this point probably won't ever pry them loose. You have to recommit and double down to reach the finish line and then, of course, you have to be dedicated to significant lifestyle changes to keep those last 10 pounds away.
The good news is, a well-devised plan of action combining moderate to intense physical activity, a diet made up of foods to fuel your workouts and an attitude that stays the course is what will enable you to finally lose that unwanted weight. Here are some strategies that, if followed with persistence, can bring you success:
Crossing the finish line is always the toughest part and requires the most effort. Dig deep and harness that desire so that you may unleash a power surge and find success.

Gennady Golovkin made a successful first impression in his U.S. ring debut four months ago. The native of Kazakhstan already had built a eyebrow-raising reputation with dominant performances primarily in Europe but had not made a formal introduction to American fight audiences.
When Golovkin stopped highly respected Grzegorz Proska in five rounds on Sept. 1 in Verona, N.Y., he served notice that his win was just not another successful defense of his middleweight belt. Golovkin, who lives in Germany and fights primarily there, crossed the Atlantic to search for the high-profile fights.
Although his immediate fight docket does not feature middleweight kingpin Sergio Martinez, Golovkin, 30, looks to further enhance his name to U.S. fight fans, and at a bigger platform Saturday night.
Golovkin (24-0, 21 knockouts) will make the fifth defense of his World Boxing Association middleweight title against Gabriel Rosado at Madison Square Garden in New York. The bout will be part of HBO's first telecast of the year.
For Golovkin, another overwhelming win, especially with the HBO and Madison Square Garden backdrop, could intensify talk of a match with Martinez perhaps later in the year. Martinez, the World Boxing Council titleholder after his win against Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. in September, will fight Martin Murray on April 27 in Martinez's native Argentina.
Given the dramatic finish to Martinez's fight against Chavez, in which Chavez trailed Martinez badly for 11 rounds but nearly knocked him out in the 12th, a rematch could happen before Golovkin could envision a coveted bout with Martinez.
As a result, Golovkin needs to keep his calendar busy, and Rosado (21-5, 13 KOs) might provide a tough task. Rosado, of Philadelphia, recovered from a second-round knockout loss against Alfredo Angulo four years ago with an impressive 2012. In his three fights last year, Rosado defeated Jesus Soto Karass, Sechew Powell and Fort Lauderdale resident Charles Whittaker.
Hall induction
The next Florida Boxing Hall of Fame induction class again will have several South Florida residents. The Hall of Fame announced its 2013 class Saturday night in Deerfield Beach.
The new class features James Warring, the second native Miamian to win a professional world title. When he retired as a fighter, Warring became a professional and amateur referee.
Other local members of the boxing community that are part of the new Hall of Fame class include trainers Dave Clark and Roberto Quesada and promoter Henry Rivalta.
"I am very honored with this recognition," Quesada said in a statement. "This is the reward of many years of hard work. ... It only motivates us to continue the hard work."
The induction ceremony will be June 21-23 in Tampa.
• Former middleweight and light-heavyweight champion Bernard Hopkins turns 48 on Tuesday, but don't expect him to retire just yet. In fact, Hopkins will pursue another light-heavyweight belt when he challenges International Boxing Federation title holder Tavoris Cloud on March 9 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y.
Hopkins (52-6-2, 32 KOs) has not fought since losing his WBC belt against Chad Dawson last April. A Tallahassee resident, Cloud (24-0, 19 KOs) also has had a lengthy ring absence; he is inactive since winning a controversial decision against Gabriel Campillo in February 2012.
Coming up:
Saturday (9 p.m., NBC Sports Network): Sergey Kovalev vs. Gabriel Campillo, 10, light-heavyweights.
