Press Releases
Toronto, ON, December 11, 2013 – Slimband is proud to have been involved as a sponsor at the March of Dimes Canada's second-annual OpportuniTeas High Tea, which took place at Toronto's Fairmont Royal York Hotel on December 8.
This important event takes place to support the March of Dimes' Conductive Education (CE) program, a specialized learning system that combines education and rehabilitation to help children living with disabilities become more mobile, self-sufficient and confident. The (CE) learning system makes an important difference to the families of children with disabilities, by addressing their unique and complex needs.
The event featured actors from The Young & The Restless, the number one rated soap opera in Canada and the US. Leslie Roberts, Anchor of The News Hour and Co-host of The Morning Show on Global Toronto, co-hosted the event with Kate Linder who played Esther Valentine on The Young and the Restless.
Slimband's own consultants, Belina Patini and Aviva Hermannoff were in attendance to meet the two lucky winners of Slimband's contest to win tickets to the event. Belina remarked "We are so proud to be involved in such an important fundraising event, it's wonderful to see so many individuals come together to make a positive difference for children". The tea included a Question & Answer session with the cast, a raffle draw, silent and live auction, autograph signing as well as photo opportunities.
Toronto, ON, November 13, 2013 – Slimband is the top weight loss clinic in the Greater Toronto Area. That's according to local residents who handed the company the honour—known as the Top Choice Award—in a live vote that was held through the web and on social media.
Slimband competed in a field containing some of the most respected names in the weight loss business, and it won by a large margin: the company's final vote tally was nearly 72% higher than its closest competitor. Members of the Slimband team accepted the award on October 22.
Top Choice helps GTA consumers zero in on high-quality products and services, saving them hours of research and ensuring they're making the best possible choice.
To even qualify, businesses must receive 25 nominations. Top Choice then puts the qualifying businesses through a rigorous verification process, which may include reviewing them as an "undercover consumer." Only after passing this test do the competitors face off in a battle for public opinion.
"We're honoured and humbled to receive the Top Choice Award," said Lisa Borg, Slimband's chief operating officer. "The fact that it was decided by the people makes it even more special. I'd like to thank our patients for putting their faith in us, as well as our staff, who work hard every day with the singular goal of helping people live happier, healthier lives. This award is proof positive that the public recognizes these efforts."

Toronto, ON, January 16, 2013 – According to a recent survey by Virgin Mobile, 51% of Canadians make New Year's resolutions, but more than half abandon them after just one month. Healthier living continues to be a leading goal, with 30% resolving to exercise more, lose weight or eat better in 2013.
Meanwhile, the obesity crisis continues to worsen. According to a 2011 study by Statistics Canada, 24.1% of adults were obese between 2007 and 2009. Obesity rates jumped about 10% for men and 8% for women from levels seen between 1986 and 1994.
Slimband recently conducted a number of online surveys examining what should be done to deal with this fast-growing problem. These surveys attracted responses from hundreds of Canadians who identified themselves as both obese and non-obese.
The health impacts of obesity are serious and widely acknowledged. But the problem goes much deeper. Here are just a few of the surprising responses the Slimband surveys returned:
- Obesity poisons interpersonal relationships: Of the 918 respondents who answered this question, 79.1% said their weight negatively affects their relationships with the people they're closest to, such as family, friends and co-workers.
- Employers see overweight workers as lazy: A strong majority—80.6%—felt that managers see obese employees as less productive than other workers. That vastly increases the odds of being passed over for raises and promotions. According to a recent study by Tennessee State University economists Charles Baum and William Ford, obese men and women can expect to earn 1% to 6% less than other employees.
- Nutrition labels are getting attention: There were a few rays of sunlight in the results that Slimband uncovered. For one, more Canadians are reading—and paying attention to—the nutrition labels printed on food containers. A full 83.0% read these labels, and 52.3% said they do a good job of letting consumers know what's in the food they eat.
- Key education programs continue to resonate: Canada's Food Guide and ParticipACTION, two fundamental government efforts to promote healthy living, remain popular: 94.5% of respondents were familiar with Canada's Food Guide, while 69.4% knew about ParticipACTION, which promotes regular exercise. More than 60% felt Canada's Food Guide was effective, and 50.5% gave ParticipACTION a passing grade.
"Our research into the obesity crisis continues to show that it affects all aspects of people's lives, from mental health to employment prospects," said Slimband CEO Michael Scott-Smith. "That makes swift action to control the problem all the more important. At Slimband, we're determined to play a leading role in tackling obesity using the wide-ranging expertise we've developed during our long history in the weight-loss business."

Overweight Women
Toronto, ON, July 17, 2012 – A new study suggests that IVF fertility treatments may be less effective for obese women trying to become pregnant. In a press release, Slimband encourages overweight women undergoing IVF fertility treatments to lose weight, which may improve their chances of conceiving with the treatment. "Regardless of whether a woman is undergoing IVF treatments, losing weight if you're obese is absolutely something that should be done to improve health and quality of life" the company said in a statement.

Toronto, ON, July 11, 2012 – The American Medical Association (AMA) has endorsed providing annual education about obesity to public school students in the United States. In a press release, Slimband supports this position on obesity education: "We applaud the decision of the AMA to support classes on obesity awareness… Obesity is a deadly disease that affects a growing number of North Americans."

Toronto, ON, May 8, 2012 – Slimband Team Participates in Annual Goodlife Fitness Toronto 5K Run/Walk; Company Matches Funds Team Raises for Canadian Diabetes Association
A team of Slimband staff members participated in the Goodlife Toronto Marathon's 5 km run / walk during the past weekend, and raised $610 to support the Canadian Diabetes Association, a sum which is being matched by Slimband to raise the total to $1,220.The Goodlife Toronto Marathon has been a Toronto tradition for 35 years, drawing hundreds of participants each year.
The Slimband team comprised: Dietitians Alexandra Friel, Ashley Comstock, and Rachel Hannah, Post Op Support Nursing Associate Joanna Hollie Yu along with Katherine Good and Ken Pollard.
"We have so many patients who are affected by diabetes, and we want to do something to show how much we care. I'm a big believer in the idea that every little bit helps," said Dietitian Alexandra Friel, the team's organizer.
More than 9 million Canadians are currently living with diabetes or pre-diabetes. Obesity is linked to type 2 diabetes – high levels of fat in the bloodstream may destroy insulin producing cells in the Pancreas. For years, all that was available to diabetes patients was advice on lifestyle changes and medications. Now, there is new evidence that weight loss surgery, such as adjustable gastric banding and gastric bypass surgery, may help those living with diabetes.
Slimband congratulates these employees not only on their completion of the run, but also on their support of the Canadian Diabetes Association.
"I am very proud of the team because of their commitment to our patients and eliminating diabetes," said Toula Zootis, Patient Support Manager at Slimband.
Toronto, ON, April 9, 2012 – Slimband, Canada's leading weight loss surgery clinic is pleased to announce the winners of the draws for two Slimband weight loss surgery procedures. The winners are Cheryl Tessier, 40, of Pickering, Ontario, and Heather Blake, 52, of Toronto, Ontario.
The entries were received during the 2011 National Women's Show, and the Zoomer and International Home Shows.
"Emotionally I think it will be freeing," said Blake of her upcoming Slimband weight loss procedure. Blake's struggles with weight began at a young age. "Gym (class) was horrific for me… even running for the bus now (is an effort)," she said. Blake currently weighs 211 pounds and hopes to reach a goal weight of 130 pounds with Slimband.
During her early 20s' Blake joined Weight Watchers; it became an on again off again effort that she couldn't stick with. "I would go to meetings and say 'please don't weigh me.'"
Blake first heard about Slimband several years ago when she read an ad in a magazine, but the procedure was out of reach financially. At the Zoomer Show she decided to enter the draw. Now she looks forward to a lasting, sustainable weight loss solution that will allow her to stay healthy and active instead of living with the health risks that excess weight can bring.
"I think this is a wonderful opportunity and I feel blessed."
Cheryl Tessier, 40, of Pickering, Ontario, is the winner of the Slimband draw at the 2011 National Women's Show.
At 220 pounds she wants to reach a goal weight of 140 pounds with the help of her Slimband.
As a 16-year-old, Tessier weighed 250 pounds. She lost over 100 pounds through diet and exercise, but slowly regained the weight as old eating habits took over.
After moving to Toronto where she works as an Escalation Manager for TELUS, Tessier met her husband and gave birth to a daughter. After the arrival of her daughter, Tessier's weight began to climb again. "I felt I didn't have time (to eat healthy). Everything became about what could get done quickly. Healthy eating fell by the wayside," Tessier said.
After she has her Slimband procedure Tessier is hoping to have more energy to keep up with her 5-year-old daughter. I'm really excited. I didn't think I would ever have an opportunity like this. I'm a very lucky person."
"We're so pleased to give Cheryl and Heather the gift of a weight loss solution that works for the long term. We'll be there for them every step of the way as they work to achieve their weight loss goals," said Lisa Borg, COO at Slimband.

Toronto, ON – October 2009 – The Laparoscopic Band Centre (TLBC), a leading provider of gastric banding surgery and support in Canada, has just completed a major re-branding exercise. The project, which has been developed over the past twelve months, has included the identification of materials, brand redesign and finally the introduction of the new brand to the business.
The rebranding has provided the company with an opportunity to evolve, and further infuse a fresh and positive attitude into the company's overall image. The rebranding exercise has been rolled out across all facets of the company, with the launch of Slimband.com as a key component. The new website serves not only as an information and knowledge resource, but also as an opportunity to interact with staff, as well as current and future clients through the addition of an online community.
Lisa Borg, Slimband Marketing Director said "The Laparoscopic Band Centre (TLBC) has grown strongly over the past four years and our business plan supports further growth and expansion. The development of a strong, distinguishable brand is firmly aligned with our plans and one element which will help us build on our success within the weight loss surgery industry."
The new brand name will replace The Laparoscopic Band Centre (TLBC) name, website and logos with immediate effect.
Toronto, ON, July 30, 2009 – A new study presented at the 26th Annual Meeting of the American Society for Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery confirms that laparoscopic gastric banding surgery (LAGB) results in sustained weight loss as well as an 83% improvement or remission of Type 2 diabetes.
Laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding surgery (LAGB) not only results in sustained weight loss for morbidly obese patients, but it also provides an improvement or remission of Type 2 diabetes in 83% of the patients. This news, the results of a new study, was presented at the 26th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS). The event was held in Dallas, Texas, and Slimband was there to learn first-hand about the ground breaking study.
To date, this is the largest long-term study on the impact of gastric banding on diabetes. This study strongly suggests that there is a definite connection between diabetes and morbid obesity. The study noted that the patients who achieved and maintained a significant weight loss also realized the greatest remission of diabetes in a shorter time frame.
The study included 95 participants who ranged in age prior to surgery from 21 to 68 years, with an average BMI (Body Mass Index) of 46. Researchers from New York University (NYU) Medical Center conducted the study from January 2002 through January 2004. Approximately 88% of the patients were taking oral medications to control their diabetes and about 15% were using insulin. On average, the patients had been diagnosed with diabetes about 6 and 1/2 years before surgery.
As routine follow up to the surgery, the patients' weight was monitored and blood tests were done. During the first year, researchers followed each patient on a monthly basis, and during the second year the follow-ups were every three months. After that, the follow-ups were annual unless more frequent visits were needed.
At the end of the five-year follow-up period the data clearly showed that in about 40% of patients, diabetes was in remission and in about 43% it was improved, which resulted in a combined improvement/remission rate of 83%.
The incidence of diabetes and obesity is on the rise and that has resulted in several studies for effective methods for sustaining weight loss and for diabetes remission. Bariatric surgery has been shown to be an excellent option for the treatment of morbid obesity as well as a way to improve Type 2 diabetes.
ASMBS is a non-profit organization that works to progressively move forward in the science of gastric banding surgery. This includes educating both medical professionals and the lay public about gastric banding surgery as the treatment of choice for morbid obesity. The ASMBS also educates regarding the risks and benefits of the surgery.

Toronto, ON , June 10, 2009 – Slimband today announced the launch of a new payment plan that is making weight loss surgery more affordable for Canadians. The plan requires an initial payment of $2,900, followed by affordable monthly payments of $389 over the course of the program.
Slimband understands the financial pressures faced by many people due to the current economic conditions and does not want this to be a stumbling block in achieving long term weight loss success. Slimband Physician's Assistant, Dr. Umar Dar said "I believe this new payment option will make weight loss surgery a viable option to many who had previously overlooked it due to the associated costs. I'm glad that those people will now have the chance to start their weight loss journey and experience long term weight loss success."
Under the new payment plan, patients will continue to have access to Slimband's extensive post-op support program, which is among the most comprehensive in Canada. The 4 year post-op program includes features such as regular in-person and online events, advice and assistance from fitness and nutrition experts, and access to fill adjustments at locations convenient for patients.
Toronto, ON, May 22, 2009 – In what could be the largest study of its kind in Canada, Slimband today announced the results of its Weight Loss Benefits survey for bariatric surgery patients.
The survey was completed by 386 post-operative Slimband patients from across Canada. The participants were aged between 21 years and 68 years old, and 88% of the participants were female. Almost three quarters of participants were part way through their weight loss journey, with the remainder either having only recently received surgery, or having reached their goal weight.
The impact of weight loss on self esteem was one of the main themes to emerge from the survey. A remarkable 70% of all participants reported that self esteem and self belief had increased with weight loss. One participant reported, "I have more confidence and make decisions more easily. I don't question myself and just live in the moment more".
Lifestyle changes, such as increased energy levels and an improved sex life were reported by 60% and one third of all participants respectively. Such lifestyle changes came as a surprise to some participants, with one patient noting that the most unexpected weight loss benefit was "having so much energy, so quickly!"
A reduction in weight associated health issues was common among many participants, with 58% reporting a decrease in general aches and pains. Participants also reported a reduction in problems such as heart burn, joint swelling, high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes. When asked to name the most rewarding benefit of surgery, participants indicated that it was the knowledge that weight loss was having a positive impact upon life expectancy and overall health that mattered most.
Toronto, ON, April 22, 2009 – A team of Slimband employees successfully competed in the 19th Annual Canada Life CN Tower Climb for WWF-Canada that took place on April 16th. The CN Tower Climb is a demanding competition in which competitors race up the 1,776 steps (or 144 flights) of the CN Tower. This year more than 400 teams and over 2,200 climbers competed in the Team Challenge division.
The CN Tower Climb is not only a great physical challenge, but also a fantastic fundraising event. The event's main purpose is to raise funds for the World Wildlife Fund, and in turn combat global warming—our greatest current environmental threat. Slimband's fundraising efforts contributed over $500 to the cause.
The Slimband team, consisting of members David Ku, Ioana Pescarasu, Leo Palermo, Jen Prosen and Yvonne Tsui completed the trial in fantastic time; all well under the average time of 25 to 40 minutes. A standout performance however, was that of Leo Palermo who completed the climb in 15 minutes and 58 seconds, placing him amongst the top 10 competitors.
Slimband congratulates these employees not only on their completion of the climb, but also on their support of the WWF through fund raising efforts.

How to promote iPhone app
I have only recently started developing iPhone apps and my first "serious" product (the first one I made was more of a learning exercise and a test of what putting a commercial app on iTunes entailed than anything else) has just gone on sale.
I would like to ask for advice on how to best promote the app, so that as many people as possible know it's out there. What I've done so far is filming a series of short video commercials and put them on Youtube, created an official site (I used Blogspot because I wanted it to be ready as quickly as possible) and sent a press release and review requests to a number of websites (listed below). Is there anything major I have missed? Should I also open profiles on Facebook/Myspace for it? Any help is going to be greatly appreciated. Websites I submitted my app to so far: Engadget, Gizmodo, Lifehacker, Ars Technica, TUAW, appshouter, dailyappshow, 148apps, apptism, appstoreapps, theiphoneappreview, iphoneappreviewer, mobilecrunch, appsmile, slapapp, iphoneapplicationlist, appcraver, iphoneappreviews, macworld, iphonefootprint, iphoneapplicationlist |

Just in-case you're wondering, the single best way to get publicity for your app is by press coverage. There's also tons of really good resources available on the internet only a Google search away that are basically exactly what you're asking for. Stanford has a few free lectures out on iTunes U that you might want to look up, too.

Press Coverage is by and far the best way to promote an individual app.
I embed Facebook like buttons in all my apps and pages and ads for my apps. I don't think having people like my apps will generate many sales from their friends, but I'm hopeful that it'll allow me to easily turn them into repeat customers. Also, my avatar + signature work well for advertising my Mac app, but I think at this point I may have saturated the market as sales for it are finally dipping... I guess it's about time I release something new (and maybe tap into those repeat customers I mentioned.) |

St Louis Travel Guide
Why? Once the gateway to the Wild West, people now travel
to St Louis for a good time in an aesthetically lovely city which
provides a host of diversions for old and young, not least of which
are the Mississippi river boats that still tie up at the riverfront
historic district. There is truly never a dull moment during a
holiday in St Louis.
When? Summers in St Louis are hot and humid, but is the best
time for a St Louis holiday if you want to make the most of the
riverfront attractions and outdoor cafes. Rain is possible at any
time of year, however, as the city is prone to storms. Winters in
St Louis are cold and can be snowy.
Who for? It is bursting with entertaining attractions for
old and young, so a holiday in St Louis is a family affair,
although mum and dad might appreciate a baby-sitter so they can
enjoy the excellent restaurants and the blues and jazz clubs in the
More Info: For information on all this exciting city has to
offer plan your St Louis holiday with the help of our St Louis
travel guide, which can be printed out to take along with you when
you travel to St Louis.
Fur trader Pierre Laclede settled St Louis as a French trading post in 1764 at the confluence of the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers. This location proved to be an ideal meeting point and it subsequently became a major port for boats on the Mississippi, and the main departure point for explorers on the western-bound wagon trails. As the 'Gateway to the West', St Louis became a manufacturing centre for everything a pioneer would need on his journey, such as saddles and guns, and it was here that Lewis and Clark stocked up with provisions for their famous expedition.
Today St Louis is the biggest city in Missouri and one of the largest inland ports in the country. It is a modern, commercial, industrial and cultural centre. Although a cosmopolitan river metropolis, reminders of its frontier history are in evidence throughout the city, most visibly in the shining steel Gateway Arch that is the famous landmark of St Louis, dedicated to the pioneers of the western frontier.
It is a city with numerous personalities: a mix of authentic America with a vaguely European air. Music from the nations past floats from the famous jazz and blues clubs over the waters of the Mississippi, paddle steamers dock along the riverfront where warehouses that once housed industrial cargoes now contain antique shops and restaurants as part of the revitalised Laclede's Landing Historic District.
Its distinctive neighbourhoods retain the lingering influence of the many ethnic groups that settled the city, comprising the real heart of St Louis. The Hill is known for its old-world charm and excellent restaurants imbued with a Latin flavour lent by its Italian community. The Central West End is a trendy quarter filled with chic boutiques and antique shops, sidewalk cafes, art galleries and some of St Louis' finest residential properties. The French neighbourhood of Soulard has a colourful Saturday produce market.
Free attractions are a St Louis tradition, and today's visitor will find more attractions here at no cost than almost anywhere else on earth. There are scores of interesting things to do, and these include some of the best attractions in the city as well as numerous activities geared towards children, making it an excellent family destination.

How To... Get Kids To Eat Healthy
Does dinnertime end leaving frayed nerves and uneaten food in its wake? Here are a few helpful strategies from diet and lifestyle coach Katherine Pennington, CHHC, AADP, to make mealtime easier and more enjoyable, while also helping your kids develop good eating habits!
Step 1: Be a super modelModel behavior for them: Children are most open to eating what they see their parents and other family members eating (or not eating). Step 2: Rule of noneA good rule: No snacks (including drinks) for about 3 hours before mealtime. Give your kids something light -- like a piece of fruit or a cup of yogurt -- and some water to drink when they get home, but then there's nothing more to eat except veggies (see below) until dinnertime. When your kids are ravenous, they will be ready to come to the table and will be more likely to eat what is put in front of them. Step 3: Minimize optionsResist the urge (and urging!) to buy foods that don't fit into a healthy diet. That means no more sugary "kiddie" cereals, processed convenience foods, plain white bread, sugar-added applesauce, etc. Step 4: Veg outHave a plate of raw veggies on the counter or easy-to-reach in the fridge -- carrot sticks, broccoli and other raw vegetables with dip -- and allow everyone to munch on those at any time. Tips on getting toddlers to eat veggies Step 5: Serve only one mealStop being a short order cook in your own house and make one meal for your the family to sit down and eat together. Serving each young person in the house with a tailor-made meal does not serve anyone's interests. Step 6: Don't force itEncourage (but don't force) your children to try new foods. Don't offer bribes or rewards, but do explain how what they put in their bodies will determine how they perform in school and sports, as well as how they look and feel. Get some healthy lunch ideas for kids & toddlers Step 7: Avoid power strugglesIf you end up introducing foods in a confrontational way, you will be locked in a power struggle with your child. Don't comment on whether they have or have not eaten something, but use the other rules here to keep his or her eating on track. And remember: When mealtime is pleasant, children will be more open to eating healthy foods. Step 8: Don't get emotionalIf a child refuses to eat or is "not hungry", don't be upset. Just cover the meal up and save it for later. If that child becomes "hungry" later, they will be offered that same meal. (It goes without saying no dessert until the child eats their dinner.) step 9: Repeat and repeatTry serving a new food over and over again. The key is to remain calm and emotionally detached from your frustration if they refuse it. Studies have shown that children naturally reject new foods but the more you serve a food, the more likely they will eat it. Step 10: Establish mealtime routinesEat at the same time and the same place everyday. Your kids will get into a good eating pattern and more likely to come to the table hungry and ready to eat. step 11: Get them investedEncourage your children to help choose and shop for meals so that they will become invested in them. To best avoid a lot of junk food, involve them in shopping at a farmer's market or natural foods store. step 12: Cook with your childrenCooking with kids is fun, and the children are always happy to gobble up their creations. Get lots of kid-friendly recipes and tips for kitchen fun! step 13: Talk to your children about nutritionWe often think that our kids tune us out when we tell them the vitamin C in orange juice helps fight illness or beta-carotene in carrots strengthens our eyesight. Do not belabor the point, but simply explain why you make certain food choices. Step 14: Everything in moderationIt's okay to have fries or hamburgers every now and then, or ice cream as a mid-week treat. Just remind them that although such goodies are yummy and fine to have on occasion, they aren't necessarily healthy.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney)—
The owners of the New York Mets settled for $162 million with the court-appointed trustee in the Bernard Madoff Ponzi scheme on Monday, according to the federal court handling the case.Trustee Irving Picard, who is in charge of recovering assets stolen in Madoff's pyramid-style scheme, had sued the owners -- including Saul Katz, Fred Wilpon and the holding company Sterling Equities -- for $303 million.
"We believe that this is a fair and just settlement," said David Sheehan, the lead counsel at Picard's firm, Baker & Hostetler.
A spokesman for the owners of the Mets was not immediately available for comment.
The Mets owners were among thousands of investors who had invested in the Madoff's Wall Street firm, which was a front for his Ponzi scheme.
The trustee has sued hundreds of investors who allegedly profited from the scheme, even though many of them -- like the Mets owners -- deny knowing that it was a scam.
The trustee had originally sued the Mets owners for $1 billion, but Judge Jed Rakoff threw out the $700 million portion of the lawsuit last year.
Madoff was arrested in 2008 and pleaded guilty in 2009 to running the largest Ponzi scheme in history. He is currently serving a 150-year sentence in federal prison.
The trustee has recovered about half of the $17.3 billion in estimated Madoff losses.

Found November 09, 2012 on
No Guts, No Glory:
The" Jon Gruden is returning to coaching" story made its rounds on yesterday and now it's really beginning to pick up steam. The originator of it all was WIP's Howard Eskin, who tweeted that Gruden could be the Eagles next head coach. That's assuming, as most are, that Andy Reid gets canned.
Eskin doubled down on statement earlier today on the WIP Morning Show where he said that he's heard that Gruden, "definitely, positively, wants to coach again. He's got the itch."
And now Mike Freeman of CBS Sports is adding even more fuel to the fire with his report that Gruden is quietly putting out feelers around the league in attempt to assemble a coaching staff.
Sources around the sport, including several assistant coaches, say Gruden has been quietly asking some NFL assistants, hypothetically, that if he did come back, would they be interested in joining him.
Again, Gruden will likely deny this, but there's no question he's been probing people he knows in football if they'd be interested in j

Another Visit
Good morning everyone! Well, my intent was to bring you my Fantasy Perspective for the hitters of another division in the American League. However, I am going to have to push that back a day. So, if you're here to check out that, be sure to come back tomorrow. But today is going to be very brief. Why?
Well, as you know, January has been a big month in the town of Warroad. On January 4th, the United States Olympic Women's Hockey team came to Warroad to play a game against the Warroad Boys Hockey team. Warroad 2, USA Women 1. Last Wednesday, the Minnesota Twins Winter Caravan came to Warroad. The group was comprised of manager Ron Gardenhire, pitching coach Rick Anderson, outfielder Lew Ford and shortstop Jason Bartlett, along with WCCO's John Gordon and TC Bear. That was a very fun night.
Last night, another event came to Warroad... The Minnesota Poker Club came to Warroad, to Springsteel Resort if I'm being specific, and is conducting a ten week Texas Hold 'Em tournament. The final prize at the end of the tournament is entry into the World Series of Poker tournament. The best part about this is that it is absolutely free to participate. Now, those who know me know that I am a really poor poker player. I have finally come to that realization and I think it has been good for me. I used to try to 'poker face' a strong hand, but I'd end up giggling out loud or something. I'm just not good, so free is a great thing! Obviously, it is illegal to play for any real money, so why not just play for fun.
The tournament is played on a point scale. If you play on a given night, you get ten points. If you play in all ten weeks, you get an extra 100 points. Of course, to have any shot at competing for the top spots, you have to place in weekly events. Since there were 32 participants last night, there were additional points for the Top 10 finishers. I believe 1st place would get 182 points and spots 2-10 obviously got less points.
I'll just start out by saying that I was very proud that I was not the first player out on my table. Actually, I was the third player out on my table! I was happy with that because the other three tables each had lost more. So, overall, I probably came in somewhere between 22nd and 25th, out of 32. However, again, those who know me or have played Hold 'Em with me would probably be shocked to know that I finished that well! I was happy!
As of now, I do intend to continue playing. As bad as I am, Texas Hold 'Em is very fun. Also, there are some very good, very experienced players. I think I can learn and hopefully become better just from playing against these people. It is also just fun for me to see the reaction of others. I love seeing the people who take it very seriously lose... especially when they lose to a hack like me!
I won't bore you with too many stories. However, one deserves to be told. When I got there, I was put on the same table as a guy who quit his job to become a professional poker player. In this area, I honestly don't know how that is possible. Anyway, the guy played with his hat backwards and much of the time, he wore sunglasses. A few hands into the tournament, we each got our cards. On the flop, there was a Two, Six and Four. I was feeling good about my cards still. This guy raises 300. I think about it for a second, and I call him. On the turn, a nine is thrown. I'm still feeling very good about my hand. I check, and the guy raises another 400. I again hesitate, but call the 400. Finally, on the river, a king is thrown. I immediately check. The guy raises 600. I throw my 600 in right away. He is pretty excited about his pocket Jacks. He starts reaching for the chips as I throw down my pocket Aces. That was a fun hand!
On another hand, I get deal a 10 and Jack of Hearts. I'm hesitant, but I decide to call the blind. On the flop, two more hearts are thrown, and I'm happy that they are the four and seven. Even better, a king of another suit is thrown. So, the bets are made, and of course, I call. On the turn, another Heart is thrown, I believe it was a Queen. So, I'm already sitting nicely with the flush, but there are still others playing, so I wonder if there are others with pocket hearts. On the river, a three was drawn. I was very happy to again beat Sunglasses Guy and his two kings!
I do need to point out that I left when there were just nine players remaining, and Sunglasses Guy was one of them!
Of course, others who play with me know that I am not a 'smart' poker player. I don't even pretend to be. So yeah, if I have a 3-6 suited, there is a very good chance that I will at least call the blinds so that I can see what the flop brings. That may be my biggest Hold 'Em problem. I will match blinds simply because I want to give my pocket cards a chance with the flop. My problem is patience. I hate not playing, so sometimes I will even call on a 5-9 off suit, just hoping for a straight, or that the flop will bring a couple fives and a nine!
I know. I shouldn't give away my strategies in such a public setting, but oh well. I mean, only one of the 32 people that were there playing last night is likely to read this anyway. And she is way better than me and laughs at my playing style anyway! Ha!
So, what was my final hand? What ended my evening of play? Well, I got a two and a four of clubs on the deal. Of course, no one should really play that hand. But I do! On the flop, two 2's are thrown down. Suddenly, I'm pretty happy. I check, and someone else raises 300 or so. I figure he's got the 10 (the other card on the flop). So, I hesitate and call the bet. The next card dealt is a six or something unimportant. I check, and end up matching another 300 bet. When a 3 was thrown on the river, I checked, the guy bet 500. I had 650 left, so I raised, and he called. By that time, I knew what he had. He had the other 2, and my 4 just was not going to be a likely winner. He had an ace kicker. So, that's it for me!
Oh well. I got to play for an hour or so in a real tournament. My plan is to continue playing each of the remaining nine weeks because I do enjoy. First, I enjoy playing Hold 'Em, but second, and I people who read this understand, it gets me out of the house and away from my computer! That is probably a good thing and something I should do more.
And on that note, I wish you a great day. Also, I have decided that I will be attending Twins Fest this weekend. Let me know if you will be there and we can try to find a way to meet up inside the Dome! If you have any questions or comments on anything you have read above, please e-mail me.

Amazing Sound Without the Wires
With a conventional home theater system there are a lot of wires to worry about. To connect the rear speakers, you might have to run the cables under the carpet or along the base of the walls so people don't trip over them. And all those cables aren't very pretty to look at. You can solve this problem with the Wireless Kit for Rear Speakers1. The system transmits the audio signals by radio waves, so there's no need to run cables from the main unit to the rear speakers. The signal also isn't interrupted by people walking through the room or blocked by furniture.
- The SH-FX67 is recommended for wireless connection to the SC-BT100 and SC-PT660. Transmission distance is limited. Performance will vary depending on room size and other conditions.

Don't move firewood:
Please protect the Pacific Northwest from invasive species by obtaining or purchasing your firewood at or near your camping destination. Firewood can carry insects and diseases that threaten the health of our western forests. You can make a difference by buying and burning your firewood locally.
dontmovefirewood.org INDIAN HENRY, OROverviewIndian Henry Campground is located in the Mount Hood National Forest, along the scenic Clackamas River. The campground is a great location for relaxation and a spectacular outdoor experience, providing ample access to the river and the surrounding wilderness, as well as other scenic spots in the area.Natural Features:The campground is situated at an elevation of 1,249 feet, in Oregon's Cascade Mountains, nestled in a mixed forest of conifers and hardwoods, including grand old Douglas firs and a variety of evergreens. A thick gathering of ferns and ivy increase privacy between campsites. Some sites overlook the river and others neighbor a mountain creek. Recreation:The family-friendly Clackamas River Trail is popular for hiking and mountain biking and begins at the upper end of the campground. It extends about 8 miles and climbs about 450 feet in elevation along the way. It is available year-round, but may be covered in snow during winter months. The Indian Henry Trail, which trolls through the forest, is also located near the campground. Facilities:The large campground offers dozens of single-family campsites for tent and RV camping. Tent-only sites are available for reservation, while the rest of the sites are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Nearby Attractions:The picturesque, blue-green Surprise Lake is located not far from the campground, up a steep climb. It is most popular for fishing, as the lake isn't large enough for motorized boats. Activities and Amenities
Know Before You Go

want to change 6 to 8 lug, can u help!!!!!!
Im New To This Forums And This Is My First Post, I Just Purchased A 91 1/2 Ton Silverado Extended Cab 4x4.it Has The Standard Small Block And Th700r4/4l60e .the Transmission Is Leaking Through The Output Shaft Seal And Leaking Where Transfer Case Mates To It.has Anyone Experiensed This?ive Searched And Apparently The Transmission Needs To Be Opened To Replace The Seal.a Friend Sold Me A 91 3/4 Ton 4x4 ,im Going To Pull The Tranny And Install It In Mine ,my Question Is , Can I Replace My 6 Lug Axles To 8 From The 3/4 Ton . What All Is Involved ?i Have Some Idea But Would Like Some Feedback.the Reason Im Asking Is Because The 3/4 Ton Has A Real Nice Set Of Wheels ,i Wana Know If Its Worth It Other Wise ,ill Have To Sell Them.
08-02-2007, 11:38 AM #2provided that the rear axles are the same (ie 12 bolt rearend),I would think that if you opened up the differentials on both and pulled the axles, you should be able to stick them in the new diff housing. It's pretty easy with a 91 suburban rearend with the 8.5" 10 bolt rearend. Hope this helps...

08-02-2007, 12:51 PM #3the 3/4 truck is a 14 bolt, 10.5 ring gear. Im hoping the axle shafts splines are the same.It looks like i will probably have to swap rear ends. as far as the front spindles ;is it a matter of just swaping the rotors? I will know more but first I have to get the truck home and compare them .
08-03-2007, 01:07 PM #43/4 ton
I THINK the 3/4 ton is a 14-bolt 9.5 ring, not a 10.5. The 10.5 is a 1-ton axle. My 2500HD is a 14-bolt 10.5 ... but it's the HD version and it's newer.
I don't believe the older 3/4 ton trucks used 1-ton running gear.
Also, the 14/10.5 is a full floater. The 14/9.5 wouldn't be, if I recall correctly.
Just get a new set of rims.CJ

08-03-2007, 03:01 PM #6OK. this is an update ,I decided that its not worth swaping axles at all.so thats that. My transmission(700r4/4l60e) in my 91 1500 silverado 1/2 ton 4x4 only shifts from first to second and then the engine just revs freely, checked fluid level and its full, its also leaking where the transfer case meets the tranny, is this a common problem?Is it an easy fix ?I also found out that the transmission from the 91 gmc 2500 3/4 ton 4x4 is bigger its a 4l80e and the wiring is diferent. Is the transmission swap worth it or should I just drop that also and just fix my original?

08-03-2007, 03:16 PM #7Are the 91 model Suburbans equipped with a 4L60E? I thought they had straight 4L60 transmission (the "E" standing for electronic). I've never really gotten under my truck to look, but I though my 91 Sub 1/2 ton was a non-electronic...but I have been known to be wrong.

08-03-2007, 03:53 PM #8also want to mention both trucks use the same transfer case. I want to make correction , my transmission is 700r4/4L60 .(no E).

08-06-2007, 07:21 AM #9There are (2) 14-bolt axles
There are definitely (2) 14-bolt rear ends for GM:
"The 14 bolt, 9.5" Semi-Floaters were installed on the 1990-1993 454SS trucks and the F44 equipped Z71 1/2 ton trucks and diesel suburbans as well as 3/4 ton trucks.
The 14-bolt, 10.5 is a full floating 1-ton axle." Hog from the Duramaximizer website.
Visually, the 9.5" has a more ROUND cover, whereas the 10.5" has the back-to-back trapeziodal looking cover.
Also, you can pop the axles out of a 10.5" full floater without taking the rear-end cover off - no "c' clips. I don't think you can do that with the semi-floater.
Best to note: the 9.5" 14-bolt is still a MAJOR upgrade from the 8.5" 10-bolt. It's just not apt to take the abuse that a 14/10.5 will take, simply in part due to the added MASS of the 10.5" gear set.
Something else to keep in mind: spline count. There're 28, 30, 31 and 35 spline axles ... and they're not interchangeable, obviously.
Respectfully ...CJ

Today we're having a look at a new headset from the CM Storm brand of Cooler Master, namely the Pulse-R. This headset comes in the same category as the Mech keyboard we've just tested and that means it features both aluminum plates that can be customized with a nice paintjob as well as lighting details.
Just as before the CM Storm brand keeps on producing quality gaming gear, after testing the recent keyboard Mech I'm expecting the same about this new headset, Pulse-R. Let's have a look!

Continue on the link below for more information and a teaser.
The fantasy world of action MMO TERA: Rising is being enhanced with additional content.

Scientists in Switzerland have reinforced a huge discovery they announced last summer. They said today that they've almost certainly found the Higgs particle, the long-sought missing link that helps explain the basic nature of our universe. This firms up similar results they unveiled with great fanfare in July.
But NPR's Richard Harris reports, it's actually disappointing news for some scientists.
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - Members of Oklahoma's Pardon and Parole Board have pleaded not guilty to multiple counts of violating the state's Open Meeting Act.
The five board members appeared with their attorneys before Oklahoma County Special Judge Russell Hall Thursday. They are due back in court on April 18.
The charges were filed Wednesday by Oklahoma County District Attorney David Prater.

While Republicans are trying to bridge their differences, Democrats find themselves broadly united behind the president's second term agenda. That doesn't mean the work will automatically get done, however, so as NPR's Ari Shapiro reports, some of Obama's biggest supporters are meeting in Washington to turn the president's campaign momentum into policy.
It's ALL THINGS CONSIDERED from NPR News. I'm Audie Cornish.

The U.S. and other countries have hesitated to help arm the rebel groups in Syria, mainly arguing that they don't want those weapons falling into the wrong hands. After nearly two years of fighting in Syria, the number of rebel groups has spiraled into the hundreds.

Argentina's Dirty War in the late 1970s and early 1980s was a dark time for both the country and the Roman Catholic Church. Thousands were kidnapped or killed by the military junta in a campaign to crush leftist opposition to the government.
Melissa Block speaks with John Connaughton, a 36-year-old American seminarian studying at the Pontifical North American College in Rome, about what it's like to witness the transition of popes firsthand.
Saint Francis of Assisi is the namesake of the new pope, Francis. To learn about the life of Saint Francis and his legacy in the Catholic Church, Melissa Block talks with with Father Jeremy Harrington. He's guardian of the Franciscan Monastery of the Holy Land in America.

I just finished my log of Joint Help and can say that I am impressed with its' ability to control general inflammation. In the past I usually went with either Super Cissus Rx or Primaforce Cissus 40% Ketosterones and found them both to be effective. But, the only drawback to cissus products is that you have to take them for a little while to get the tendon or ligament relief you are looking for. What I liked about Joint Help is that the ParActin speeds this process up so you can get more immediate relief while the cissus builds up in your system. This has been a banner year for annoying injuries like a broken foot and a partially torn rotator cuff so I've tried everything to heal:
E-Pharm Joint Force
Peaceful Mountain Tendon Rescue
SuperCissus Rx
Cissus 40% Ketosterone
Green Lipped Mussel (Perna Canaliculus)
Glucosamine Chondroitin
Joint Help
So, yes it has been the cumulative use of many different products in conjunction with Joint Help, but iForce has a solid product here worth checking out.

The Austrian Studies Association (ASA) at California State University, Long Beach (CSULB) will hold its annual conference April 26-28 at the campus with the theme "AEIOU Global Austria." All events are free and open to the public.
CSULB's Annual Conference of the Austrian Studies Association features two keynote speakers from Austria. Barbara Neuwirth, a fiction writer and feminist scholar, will start off Friday's events with her keynote address on issues of migration and globalization in Austria. Filmmaker Harald Friedl will then provide the closing event on Saturday afternoon with the U.S. premiere of his latest film "Mein Leben als Apfelbaum" ["My Life as an Apple Tree"], which will be followed by a question-and-answer session.
"There will be 64 speakers from all over the world," said conference organizer Nele Hempel-Lamer, CSULB associate professor of German. "The conference opens with a special reception at the Austrian Consul's residence in Brentwood on Thursday evening followed by two days of panels on interdisciplinary approaches towards Austrian literature and culture. Topics include the first and second World War, resistance and memory, theater politics, documentary and travel narratives as well as nationalism and gender politics."
CSULB M.A. students in German will participate as moderators at the conference, and, Hempel-Lamner noted, MA graduate Curtis Maughan, who just received the Dean's Award as 2012 Outstanding Graduate Student in the College of Liberal Arts, was accepted by the external review panel to present a paper on Harald Friedl's documentary "Aus der Zeit" [Out of Time]."
"Our department is all about student engagement," Hempel-Lamer said. "We look to provide our students intellectual opportunities but also opportunities just to get involved. We recognize that students who have been part of a conference like this can talk about these experiences when they apply to a graduate program, a scholarship or a job.
"This conference (is) a good fit here. It is part of our department's goal to socialize students into becoming well-educated global citizens," she added. "If you don't do these kinds of events, your program can become stagnant. Every time our program hosts a conference on campus, visiting colleagues from other universities are simply astounded by the level of student involvement in an academic event."
Panelists are predominantly professors and Ph.D. candidates from prestigious public and private universities in the United States, Canada, Austria, Germany, Great Britain and South Africa. A conference program is posted on CSULB's romance, German, Russian Languages and Literatures (RGRLL) home page.
"It will be a great chance for our students to connect with internationally renowned scholars," said Hempel-Lamer. "I am currently teaching an undergraduate/graduate seminar on 20th and 21st century Austrian literature and culture. The conference will allow my students to meet scholars whose publications they have been reading in conjunction with this class."
She also believes the conference can benefit students looking for a good graduate program beyond CSULB. She said ASA conference will be an excellent opportunity for some students to have conversations with the people who run Ph.D. programs at their respective institutions. Additionally, with a lot of support for the conference coming from the Austrian Consulate, students also can get information regarding studying and living in Austria.
The conference is supported by CSULB's College of Liberal Arts, the Office of Academic Affairs and the RGRLL Department. The conference has also received generous support from the Austrian Consulate in Los Angeles, the Austrian Cultural Forum in New York and the Center for Austrian Studies at the University of Minnesota.
Hempel-Lamer encourages both the campus and the local community to attend. "What is especially interesting about this conference is how it examines Austria from an interdisciplinary point of view with papers on topics related to Austrian history, politics, theater, and culture," she said. "But then there also will be the more traditional literature panels focusing on feminist readings and/or narratives depicting the post-WWII Austrian society.
"Whatever your discipline may be, there should be a panel there for you," she pointed out. "For those interested in studying Austria, and that encompasses many subjects, their time would be well-spent attending this conference."
