AJAX -- He was a man who spent years giving to the community and coaching boys in soccer and in life. Now, following his unexpected death, it's the local soccer community that's rallying around Angelo Medica's family.
A Pickering resident, Mr. Medica was the victim of an accident while on vacation in Portugal when a barbecue exploded and he suffered serious burns. He died on July 29 at age 45.
"He was a great person, he had a great heart, loved his boys, spent every day with them," said Mr. Medica's widow, Cristina Pereira-Medica. "He's been coaching rep soccer since they were four."
The couple met when they were just 18 years old in hairdressing school. They felt an instant connection and got married five years later.
"I was excited, I was happy to be marrying my best friend, my true love; he was very, very happy," she said.
They went on to have two sons, John-Sebastian, now 18, and Michael, 15. Ms. Pereira-Medica split her time between working and raising their sons and Mr. Medica switched from being a hairdresser to working drywall to support the family.
He also had a second career as a devoted coach for the Ajax Football Club, coaching his sons up through the rep ranks.
"He was at it six days a week," said Ms. Pereira-Medica, explaining that when her husband wasn't coaching, he would be at home at the computer planning practices and devising strategies for the two teams he coached. "His soccer family was his second family."
John-Sebastian said his dad was a father figure to the whole team.
"They all respected him," he said.
Last year, John-Sebastian's U17 team became provincial champions with Mr. Medica's coaching. It was the highlight of Mr. Medica's coaching career, but also a victory he shared with his son and a team full of players who looked up to him.
"He was like a father figure, he was always smiling," said Marco Marzilli of Pickering, who plays for the U18 team. "He treated the team like we were all his kids. He liked to joke around, serious during game time, but other times he'd joke around."
Mr. Medica was the kind of guy who would passionately exclaim, 'are you kidding me or what?' when he reached his tipping point, but 20 seconds later he would be back to smiling.
George Codrington of Courtice was Mr. Medica's assistant coach for the U18 team. Mr. Codrington's son Jonathan also plays on the team and the two men worked together to bring out the best in their players.
"We weren't only training these kids for soccer, we were training them for life," he said.
It was Mr. Codrington who broke the news of Mr. Medica's death to the players following a game. He says it's one of the toughest things he's ever had to do.
"I don't know how I got through that game, I probably cried for 20 minutes."
With U15 players still in high school and his U18 players heading off to college and university, they'll carry with them the lessons they learned from Mr. Medica and Mr. Codrington said it will take at least 10 years to see the full legacy Mr. Medica passed on to his players.
That included lessons on how to play on the field and how to live life.
"It was 'be confident, you can do anything in life'," said John-Sebastian of his father's most important lesson.
A benefit was held in August at the Ajax Community Centre and Ajax FC is planning a footgolf tournament Sept. 14 to raise funds for the Medica family.
"For somebody who only lived 45 years, he put so much back into this community in terms of coaching," said Mr. Codrington. "More than half of his life, he spent giving back to the community as a soccer coach. Now the community is giving back to him."
Contact Theresa Lang for details on the footgolf tournament at email@example.com . People wishing to donate to the family can do so at Scotiabank under Angelo Medica. The transit number is 64782 and the account number is 647820075183.

A thriller that does not disappoint.
I read the first line: "I hope this knucklehead doesn't get himself killed before we move in." Well with a first line like that what mystry/suspense lover wouldn't keep reading? Not me. I kept reading and found this a page turner. Wished I hadn't lost it in my TBR (to be read) pile for so long.
This book is proof you don't have to use a bunch of bad language to write a good thriller.
I gotta take more writing lessons from this guy.

Edge-of-your-seat supsense!
This is one of those books that I wish hadn't been lost in my stack. It was edge-of-your-seat fabulous! I love stories about people sucked into cults and the great lengths that have to occur to pull people out. That Dr. Simmons was a real nut case, but the author did a terrific job putting you in his head so you could see how twisted he was in the way he saw himself and the world. I loved it! Also, the close bond between the detectives and their camaraderie was endearing. I enjoyed reading about how they'd put their careers and even their very lives on the line to help a friend whose daughter was trapped in a cult. The father--for obvious reasons--was driven to get Ruby out before it was too late. This story was fast paced and very, very interesting. The plot was well done and the scenery so vivid I felt like I was part of the group. Scary. Also, the spiritual warfare and truths that were brought into the light within the context of this story were compelling. Not preachy at all. And the way the people who were angry with God came to realize that they needed His help to succeed was done in a very convincing manner and did not feel contrived. I love fiction with such a realistic feel to it. Plus, this author used a variety of points of view, but it was done so seamlessly that I'm impressed with his technique. It wasn't at all obvious that there were multiple points of view. Every one of them seemed necessary to move the story along. Well done! Also, one unique aspect of this riveting novel was the close relations and interdependency between people from different ethnic backgrounds. Byron and Ruby were so close in their relationship that I forgot he was white. In fact, I had to look back and double check because he was so easily accepted into the family once he helped Ruby. But that also made sense because Ruby mentioned growing up in all white schools most of her life, so it wouldn't seem like a big deal to her. At any rate, I was enthralled with this story and the romance between Ruby and Byron as well. I hope they get married someday. Maybe in the next book (if there is one?) Highly recommended!

With incredible sales success from his books and tapes, psychiatrist Dr. Walter Simmons has amassed a fortune. His ability to merge basic psychological concepts into an optimistic moral and spiritual holistic wholeness has made him extremely popular especially amongst college students. He currently invites his top (meaning alienated, lonely, or both) Florida State University students to a special ¿boot camp¿ training program.-------------- Florida Department of Law Enforcement Agent Tim Porter is worried about his daughter Ruby, who has been acting stage of late though her being at FSU and he being divorced from her mother, her prime caretaker, means he sees her infrequently. Still he mentions is concerns to his former wife and his partner John Russell. Soon he learn that Ruby is undergoing special training along with other students under the tutelage of Dr. Walter Simmons special training that looks like a cult, acts like a cult, sounds like a cult ergo a cult. How to free his daughter in a scenario in which the local police back the psychiatrist, the FBI demands he stay out so as not to taint their investigation of Simmons, and the charismatic doctor appears to have the spiritual edge that claims Ruby¿s soul is his quest.---------------- The first ¿Truth Seekers¿ tale, ROLLING THUNDER, was a strong police procedural supported by an inspirational family drama with John as the star. This time Tim is the focus within a powerful family drama supported by a fine ¿unsanctioned¿ police procedural. The fast-paced story line grips the readers as John turns from concern to fear as he feels he is losing the soul war to his dynamic adversary. Fans will appreciate this deep insightful look at a cop willing to do anything including losing his job and team up with his ex-wife for the first time since before their split to save his child.-------------- Harriet Klausner

Tiger Woods is on top of the leaderboard at Torrey Pines. Here are Five Things you need to know from the second round at the Farmers Insurance Open: 1. Same old story Woods owns a two-shot lead after using the North Course's short par 5s to shoot 65 on Friday. He was 5-under on the four par 5s, including an eagle at No. 18 (his ninth hole) after hitting a long-iron shot within 10 feet. He missed just two fairways and was confident enough with the driver to use it even on the North Course's shortest par 4s. He made birdie at the uphill 326-yard, par-4 second hole after hitting a driver in the fairway 40 yards short of the green and hitting the flagstick with his approach. "I drove the ball great and took advantage of the par 5s," Woods said. "I've had beautiful practice sessions at home. Even though last week (in Abu Dhabi) I only played two days, I felt like I hit the ball well enough to shoot a better score than I did. ... I had a couple days at home ...

Rated 4.4 out of 5 by 300 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by CMarie7 Loved my stay at the W!! I had a lovely time staying at the W. As a woman travelling alone, I loved the security of requiring a room key to access the upper hotel room floors. The staff was excellent -- very friendly and helpful with restaurant recommendations. I didn't get a chance to enjoy the spa -- maybe next time. The pool area was gorgeous, but alas it wasn't warm enough to swim when I was there. The room itself was beautifully decorated and the bed was oh so comfortable! Can't wait to visit the W again. February 23, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by hwstropp The perfect night away! I love this W hotel. So many restaurants and fun things to do within walking distance! The staff was extremely helpful and made me feel like a VIP from the moment I walked in. My friends and I checked in late and they had overbooked the particular room we had requested. The manager came over and explained that they had no more rooms with 2 Queen beds. There were 3 of us so this was not good news. I fully expected to hear that we would be put in a smaller rom and have to make due, but instead they upgraded us to a 2 bedroom suite! SCORE! It was awesome! We ordered room service snacks which were very reasonably priced and hung out in our awesome suite. The nightlife at the hotel is always rocking. A DJ and great people watching. My friends and I had such a fun night! Thanks to the W and all it's staff! July 15, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Trixie1444 Perfect getaway! This hotel is hip and beautiful! The Living Room Bar is the place to be. I didn't find it at all too hip or young and I'm over 40 so I'm not sure what other reviewers are talking about. There are people of all ages here. It is not where you would want to go for peaceful relaxation--but it is if you want to have fun in a nice setting. The location is unbeatable and the food is wonderful. We had a King corner room which is an odd layout but perfect for a couple. The view is spectacular. January 30, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Guardius A good stay, though not what I expected Was in town on business so stayed at the hotel. Its a nice location downtown in easy walking distance to most places you'd want to go. I can't really comment on the pool because the two times I went there it was a ghost town even though it a beautiful pool area. The fitness center was well equipped and very active however. Room service prices seem to be higher than the standard Austin fare, but there are a LOT of places within a 5 minute walk so you don't really need to be compelled to eat there. In addition there are a number of nice music spots and clubs a block away. The room I stayed in was on the small side and they didn't have the room that I booked available. They dropped the rate and that was cool, but still I really wanted the space.. and a tub. Everything appears to be a shower in the hotel. August 26, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by Johny2012 Nice building, nice staff but absolutely terrible service Room service order wrong on both days i was there. Could not even get a basic coffee order right. Feels like the hotel is run by a bunch of very nice "surfer dudes" with no previous hotel experience or understanding that most of their guests are business people. Water-pressure in rooms is absolutely terrible. Literally feels like you're getting sprayed. Bathroom often dirty (hair in sink and on floors). room decoration is nice looking but cheap and already falling apart R June 21, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by susan92 Made our 1st anniversary extra special I can't even say enough great things about this hotel, the amenities and the staff. FABULOUS! They went over the top to make our 1 yr anniversary extra special with a "surprise" suite upgrade which was AMAZING! The staff was so attentive and added all the right special touches, including chilled champagne that we had brought (although they were going to give us some too!) chocolate strawberries and a really sweet, personalized card. They had this all set up when we returned from the Moody Theatre along with the gift from my husband. It was such a nice touch. We also had dinner at Trace in the hotel which was delish and the service here was also great. We will DEFINITELY be back every year but, I may not be able to wait until Sept! Thank you W Hotel Austin. You made us never want to leave and we live in Austin! :) September 5, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by RandallB54 Awesome hotel; awesome location; awesome food; awesome people I stay at the W Austin every chance I can get when I come to Austin. Simply stated, it does everything right. As the title says, "Awesome hotel; awesome location; awesome food; awesome people." There's no better to stay in Austin, and that definitely includes the Four Seasons. July 10, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by alysonbumartin Wowed my expectations! SUch a great experience for my boyfriends birthday! i cannot wait to go back! We are looking at staying at the W now for sure for a trip in NYC! July 21, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by SarahS Mixed The pool was so crowded, it grossed me out. That was a big disappointment. I had only seen the pool on a week day & my vision of lounging poolside with my husband with no kids for our 15th wedding anniversary was way off. We couldn't get near the pool to lounge, so we sat on couches near the bar. It was really hot, no circulation. We would make a point to book any night other than Saturday in the future, because of the scene at the pool. The room was lovely, but the air vent blew on my face ALL NIGHT while I tried to sleep. I woke up with a sore throat & finally got some sleep when I put my head at the foot of the bed. I love the bathroom products, especially the Bliss face wash. The staff was excellent and very attentive. The changing room in the spa was immaculate and very welcoming/ relaxing. Hope this helps. August 26, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Str88 Excellent I am writing to compliment Katie, and Tim. I have stayed in the W LA, SF and often at the Saint Regis. And until now I thought the W was second to the Regis. Katie and Tim changed that. I felt comfortable, taken care of and just over all happy while in the presence of these two employees. Their service made my stay at the W so nice I will definitely be staying with you every time I visit Austin. Please send them a warm regard and compliments from the Stross Party! February 17, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by abcdefg12345 june 2014 The hotel was very nice; however, we booked four rooms in january, asked for connecting rooms on the same floor, and when we arrived we were told that none of our rooms could be connecting, and only 2 rooms were on the same floor, the day after we arrived. As a group connecting rooms were important to our trip and this was a detractor from the overall value. June 23, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Allday003 Housekeeping - Optional I was a little confused during check-in on what I must have agreed upon regarding housekeeping. The front desk clerk explained something about 500 points extra per stay. I apparently agreed to no housekeeping during my 3 day stay. In the end it wasn't a huge hassle but it was alarming to return after day of meetings to see bed and bath untouched. June 26, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by PSTKA Redeemed yourself W Austin My first stay was not acceptable and had planned to leave a terrible review. I decided to give it another shot and was very happy I did. From check-in to check-out I was so happy with the level of service and the "whatever, whenever" attitude. Secret Bar - Bartender monday night was not the friendliest but everyone else made up for him. Welcome Ambassadors Teddy & Drue, Thank you! I wish I could have taken more names. Thank you for a great experience W Austin. February 27, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by kmfoley W Austin - Hmmm I thought this was going to be a plush luxury hotel. It is luxury, just not so plush. Maybe the design of it? Too artsy. The room was awesome, the bed was awesome, the shower pressure was like a hurricane! The staff very responsive, always greeted, and remembered too! July 7, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Rosiedavis What a great location My daughter and I stayed at this property in May. The hotel was one of my favorites ever. I travel a lot and can't say enough!! Comfort and exceeded my expectations. July 17, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by JULIET713 Love the customer service I got into the W Austin late at night and they were so great! Josh at the front desk was so helpful and answered my laundry list of questions with a smile... just what I needed after traveling all day long. Then, in the morning when I couldn't zip my dress the person at the front desk offered to help me. I just love the staff at this hotel. Also, the room service is delicious and the menu has healthy options - which is greatly appreciated. Thank you, W Austin! May 17, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by deprivation W Austin The check-in, room service, room itself, pool and gym were all great. Location of hotel was good too. All 5 out of 5 stars. I'll certainly stay here again when I'm in Austin. My only issue was and why I gave overall 4 instead of 5 stars was being overcharged for munchie box items after I already checked out. I've gotten three folios delivered to me since I checked out. Each time I open another e-mail I cringe that more things were charged erroneously. September 7, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Rene65 Our anniversary we had a great stay. The staff was forever out doing themselves. They upgraded our room upon arrival, even before we asked. They took 50% off our room service bill when they felt they had not delivered quickly enough. They provided free WiFi compliments of the WiFi "Ferry" Nicole. The various cozy bars may have been the very best part. There was no end to finding comfortable seating and the drinks were creative and delicious. We cannot wait to return. July 17, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by zabcal Old W Austin I thought the hotel felt old and the rooms needed an upgrade. July 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Chelsea77 Best visually pleasant hotel ever I loved W Austin very much. I have to say this is my fav hotel ever. Everything was a visual pleasure to look at, an the staff were very helpful for all my need. One thing may prevent me from future booking all W property is that they DID NOT give me my spg reward point for my stay. It should not matter how the reservation was paid and who paid for the reservation. I should get reward point as long as I stay there. Very disappointed afterwards. May 16, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by AES08 Great place to stay I had a quick business trip and arrangements were made for me. This was a great stay and very convenient for the trip. I was very happy with everything and the hotel and everything around made the trip very pleasant. July 8, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by dula Excellent service from staff I was here for a business meeting and the staff was very attentive, providing excellent service (serving meals, filling water glasses, etc.). I'd left an item in my car (valet parked) and the attendant went to my car to retrieve the item and leave it at the front desk for me. No fuss. June 28, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Rob1x Great hotel for get away weekend! My wife and I recently spent the weekend at the W in Austin as a 'get away' from the kids. In fact, the W is our favorite hotel to do this periodically throughout the year. It's important to get some alone time with your spouse! We love the consistency of the service and the staff, and also the proximity to many things to do in downtown Austin. June 14, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by pickyinnyc One of the best hotels in Austin I stay at the W in Austin often because of its location, great rooms, awesome gym, and a fun scene if you wanna partake in that. The only consistent area I see room for improvement is with the cleaning staff. I feel that they may decide to give fresh towels or may not, may leave chocolates at night or may not, they may decide to remove used glasses or may not, etc... These are small things but get a hotel from being really nice to excellent. July 27, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by AC365 Hip, Modern, and a Beautiful View The W is a modern experience -- stark lighting, beautiful city views, spare room comforts, and yet a luxurious mattress and room top it off. Great place to stay if you're hoping for a real city experience. July 6, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by JG22 Great Location and Amenitites - Customer Service has opportunity for improvement Beautiful hotel and wonderful amenities. Only area that could be improved is the customer service. I travel every week and I have seen all levels of customer service. With the W being one of Starwood's premier brands, I expected outstanding customer service. Unfortunately the W Austin did not meet these expectations. From the valet taking 15 minutes to get our car to the unfriendliness of the pool bar staff, overall I was not impressed. September 26, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Matthew343 Austin W Rocks! Recently stayed here with my family for the weekend. Service was top notch at every level. Caleb the concierge, secured tickets to Bob Schneider, which was sold out for my wife and I on Valentines day, big plus!!! Very impressed with the level of detail and attention the entire team gives to their guests. I am a Platinum member and spend 100 nights a year in Starwood hotels, this is one of the best I have experienced.Thank you!! February 19, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Blat68 Surprised my wife! We live in Austin and try to get downtown for dinner and an over night every few months. We have three young kids and the adult time recharges the batteries. I love the W Hotel in Austin because of its location. Also the staff at the W are excellent. When we arrived back to our room for the evening a bottle champaign and chocolate covered strawberries we waiting for us... what a great way to end the evening! Thank you again! March 31, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by CAJAUS8 Pool not working- We liked the decore in the room, the bed was super comfy. Our "wonderful" room was SO small though. Probably the smallest hotel room I've ever stayed in. Even for a "standard" room with no upgrades it was SO small! But our biggest disappointment was the pool not working. We live in Austin & came to the W hotel for a little hometown get away without our children. We wanted to go swimming on Monday Aug 19th, & upon our arrival to the 4th floor (pool deck) they told us we probably wouldn't want to get in the pool. They didn't explain very well what was going on and said if we really wanted to we could get in but they wouldn't recommend it because it was so green & foggy- We obviously chose not to. That was a bummer because we really wanted to go swimming before leaving the W and never did get to. The omelets & waffels were SO yummy! Our breakfast there was amazing! August 20, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by missybhutch Best customer service at a W! I am a platinum starwood guest and LOVE the hotel chain but the W Austin had the best service of any I have been to. Super friendly and went out of their way to be helpful and treat me well. Cannot wait to go back there! June 29, 2014

The dedicated teaching professionals at Village Glen Tennis Club oversee a wide variety of programs for adults and juniors of all skill levels, earning the club recognition as a Top 50 Tennis Welcome Center of 2007 from the U.S. Tennis Association. This honor followed on the heels of a major renovation of the club's facilities in 2006 by a new management team, who modernized the six hard and eight clay courts and brought in new nets instead of pealing white picket fences. Today, players can take up the game through a series of classes that help them progress alongside players with similar abilities or hone specific strokes through drills designed to isolate and improve their technique. Players excited to show off a shiny new forehand or a pitch-perfect grunt can do so through the club's adult leagues or socials.
At Joshua Creek Golf and Tennis, golfers can hone their game independently at the 65-stall driving range and hasten their journey to golf mastery by taking lessons from Canadian PGA professional John Davis. The club also carries the newest gear and equipment from top brands such as Callaway and Ping, and offers club-fitting services for select brands to pair golfers with clubs that fit their back-scratching technique.
A staff of four tennis professionals runs the site's tennis facility, which fosters baseline duels across six courts. In the summer, kids flock to the multi-sport facility for camps that incorporate tennis, golf, soccer, and other sports into a fun and educational experience.
The six hard courts at Welland Indoor Tennis Club play host to friendly matches, leagues, and clinics conducted from October to April each year. Committed members and a welcoming staff of enthusiastic instructors run the inviting non-profit facility and readily help beginners, intermediate players, and professionals perfect strokes and secure facial tissue for post-Wimbledon nasal drip. Check out the schedule to plan ahead for court time.
The University at Buffalo's Division I NCAA teams rally students for football at UB Stadium, basketball in the Alumni Arena, and a slew of other sports across their campus. Additionally, the Recreation & Intramural Services staff aim to supplement students' brain workouts and textbook bench presses with programs to keep their bodies running just as strong—and welcome community members to do the same. Exercise equipment fills indoor recreational facilities at the Alumni Arena and Clark Hall for those who prefer solo workout sessions, and group classes, such as biking and boot camp, get attendees into shape as they enjoy a communal atmosphere.
Pennbriar Athletic Club's exercise paradise spans 110,000 square feet of recreational resources. Armed with a month of unlimited access, esteemed members can artfully flail their limbs at a 25-yard indoor pool, three-lane indoor track, cardio studio, conditioning center, and basketball court before laying muscles to rest at the relaxing whirlpool, sauna, and coffee counter.
At Stoney Creek Tennis Club, seven well-lit outdoor courts set the stage for group lessons led by seasoned club pro Rasim Sehovic, who brings more than 20 years of racquet wrangling to the court. During the one-hour group lesson, athletic acolytes enjoy one-on-one training time with Sehovic and other gifted coaches, ensuring students get a chance to have their swings closely analyzed and their pregame war cries critiqued. After the lesson draws to a close, students can meander over to the clubhouse to lounge on the shaded patio and enjoy the tennis-ball machine halftime performance.

Welcome Tresaca. So glad you are here. I'd love to hear more about how you are living out your calling with teens! I think it is a wonderful mission. They are lucky to have you.
I just joined this group and I look forward to participating!
I am called to help teens turn their lives around. I wish all of you the best with living out your callings.
In general I love being an extrovert because I love entertaining others, making them laugh, helping them to feel comfortable and have a good time. But even we extroverts need their alone time (or I do anyway) or have times when we don't feel like being the life of the party, yet others expect it and can become almost resentful when we take the night off, so to speak. Extroverts can start to feel pressured to "perform," and feel personally responsible for keeping everyone happy--and base their self-worth on how successful they are doing that. That's a trap we need to avoid, but it can be challenging when you are hardwired to want to please!
Lynne: In answer to your question. I used to be an introvert until God brought it to my attention that "introvert" means to look inward, or focus on self, so that I was the most important person in my life. I was putting God in second place! I am now second and an extrovert. I'm sure this wasn't exactly what you were looking for but it sure is a fast way to solve the challenges so many people face in living out their calling. Focus on God - first, last and always. By having no place for self means God has a place to work in your life.
In preparation for my upcoming teleseminar I have a question for all the called women out there: Do you consider yourself an introvert or an extrovert? Does your personality offer challenges to you as you pursue your calling? If so what are they? Looking forward to hearing from you!

Here's Josh Young, who currently handles the contributor network at the real-time media company Sulia, and who formerly headed social news at The Huffington Post.
The first of Google's ten core principles has framed the way we think about the content on the Internet:
Focus on the user and all else will follow.
Of course, that user is really what technologists and economists both call the "end user." When it comes to content, that means the reader. This principle presumes that users have information needs and that the information to satisfy those needs already exists. The task is culling, discovering, finding.
This is essentially the idea that content just happens. Search is the easy example, but you can see it in curation, too. The answers are all there — disguised by the blooming, buzzing confusion of even more information — and we just need a better filter.
Almost all content platforms are informed by this principle, as well — at least as a matter of positioning. WordPress has no agenda. Tumblr doesn't care what you write. Pinterest doesn't have a say in what boards you pin together. Quora doesn't care what you ask or answer. Nor does YouTube care what you upload. Soundcloud doesn't care what you create. Read It Later doesn't care what you read later any more than Twitter cares what you Tweet. The list goes on and on.
The formula for today's most successful content platforms is to give a bunch of writers each a soapbox and then to give vastly more readers some tools to find the soapbox best for them. In any two-sided market, after all, an economist might tell you to subsidize the side that's more price-sensitive and to charge the side that has more to gain from network effects. Blah blah blah.
Of course, audiences will never just happen. Likewise, "Focus on the writer and all else will follow" doesn't seem like a promising economic model.
But I am not an economist, and I think 2012 will be the year in which we realize that Google's first core principle misses something important. We will recognize all over again the value in catering to the writer — or, rather, the best writers. We will thus also invest in giving them tools to reach the right readers. Maybe readers aren't so price-sensitive, and maybe they stand very much to gain from network effects. 2012 will show us.

Burglary suspect up a tree in Magnolia 3 hours before surrendering to police
A burglary and assault suspect surrendered to Seattle police Friday after spending three hours perched in a tree in the Magnolia area.
Seattle Times staff reporter
A burglary and assault suspect surrendered to Seattle police Friday morning after spending three hours perched in a tree in the Magnolia area, while police and firefighters watched from below.
The incident halted all rail traffic through the area, including the Sounder commuter train, as hostage negotiators urged the man to come down from his spot about 40 feet off the ground near railroad tracks south of the Ballard Locks.
The suspect, identified by police as Victor A. Mason, 38, had threatened to harm himself while up in the tree, police said.
Seattle police Detective Mark Jamieson said Friday's events started about 2 a.m., when Mason allegedly went to his ex-girlfriend's home in the 4600 block of 33rd Avenue, forced his way inside and assaulted her male roommate.
The roommate suffered a broken foot in the attack and was taken to a hospital for treatment.
Mason came back to the house at about 5 a.m. and broke out some windows, Jamieson said. The ex-girlfriend fled, and was later located unharmed.
A police officer investigating the broken-window complaint was flagged down by a motorist who had heard someone calling for help, possibly near the railroad tracks near 34th Avenue West and Gilman Place West.
Officers found Mason in the tree about 5:30 a.m., and a hostage negotiator was called.
At least twice, the man climbed partway down the tree, then returned to his original spot, before finally coming down on his own at about 8:30 a.m., when he was taken into custody.
Police said Mason was booked into King County Jail on investigation of burglary, assault and malicious mischief — all felonies.
According to the Department of Corrections, Mason was also wanted for failing to report to his community-corrections officer after serving prison time for assault and attempted robbery.

Trick Daddy recently told the public that he's been living with the disease Lupus. The Miami-based rapper recently talked to SOHH about the startling revelation as well as his upcoming album and acting role.
Trick has been quietly living with Lupus for over a decade but he finally decided to tell his story in hopes of helping others who are suffering from the disease.
"I don't want no body to feel embarassed about it or uncomfortable about it," he told SOHH. "A lot of people probably think, 'Oh I hate my life. Why do God got me living like this? Why am I the only one'? No, there's hundreds of thousands of millions of us that suffer from the disease. I'm a person that would get a couple of people's attention. I could make them a little more comfortable with dealing with the situation." (SOHH)
In a recent radio interview, Trick Daddy made news when he discussed his diagnosis.
"I went to the doctor like 12 years ago," Trick explained. "She took all kinds of tests, because I was trying to get rid of what we call dry skin, did biopsies and blood tests and swab tests. She told me some type of way I have the disease, lupus. It's one of the simplest forms but I am allergic highly to the sun, that's my worst enemy. That's like an AK-47 with a double clip on it…I could jeopardize kidney and liver failure from the treatment and the medication." (Travis Smiley Morning Show)
Trick is currently in the studio putting the final touches on his upcoming album, Finally Famous.
"It's like very other Trick Daddy album," he said. "I got a feature on there from Betty Wright called, "This Is How We Do It" Yeah, they're not gonna believe it. I also have a new R&B artist from Miami by they name of Shonie, she's singing on this one particular song that has Trina on it called "Fantasy" I got production from The Runners. It's definitely well rounded." (SOHH).
In addtion, Trick is working with MTV/Pocket Books to release an autobiography titled Magic City: Trials Of A Native Son.
The book will focus on Trick's rise from obscurity, as one of 27 children born into poverty in Miami's infamous Liberty Square Housing Development. The book, co-written by award-winning journalist Peter Bailey, will account the details of Trick's life on the streets. It will chronicle his growing up as the son of a pimp and brother to a drug dealer, who was eventually murdered. (Keep It Trill)
Trick Daddy is also looking forward to tackling his first major film role in a movie which begins production next week.
"The movie is called Another Day. I'm supposed to be playing a kid named Roman in there. A lot of times when you get a black rapper we have to be gay or on drugs or the police or the snitch. I don't have to be none of them," he told SOHH. "The guy that played Marlo in The Wire [is also in the film.] It's a lot of older more talented actors in this movie. I don't see how it could go wrong."

If you are still using the biggest programming mistake ever made - an ill-thought solution called Windows Explorer, you are wasting your time of your valuable. There are much better file manager alternatives that are easier to use and offer more options. Take Frigate 3, for example.
This is a two-pane file manager, the format that is extremely convenient when it comes to working with files.
The program supports plug-ins for Total Commander (formerly Windows Commander) and has folder synchronization feature with FTP support. Since most file manager users are professionals, Frigate 3 is packed with great perks to the brink. Like music? This file manager comes with an audio/video file player/viewer and MP3 tag editor. Use images in daily operations? Great, because Frigate 3 comes with an image converter and a viewer with thumbnail and slideshow functions. Naturally, Frigate 3 offers extensive network and FTP file management features along with powerful "search and replace" functions that support regular expressions.
Frigate 3 is really crammed with excellent and very useful options, like side-by-side text file comparison with differences being highlighted. Developers are sure to appreciate built-in Hex editor, DBF editor and HTML viewer, as well as other handy extras, like TreeNotes, Quick Launch, Startup Manager or SmartPad.
Getting overwhelmed with Frigate's capabilities? Not to worry - the program is using module-based architecture, meaning you can turn off any viewer or editor you don't need. Likewise, you can take advantage of Frigate's jumbo plug-in collection and add some exotic option 99% percent of users would never need.
With own FTP client and a zip file manager, Frigate 3 is a best candidate for the Net's most convenient file manager/Explorer replacement for Windows.

As others have said, don't use the co2 for the shielding gas.
One thing you can do is to make a dimpling tool that I posted a while back. There are some great recreations of it in the soldering ss thread in the sticky section. Basically what it will do for you is....make the weld in mig much raiser. Your only real worries will be your starts and stops leaking. Its a bit more difficult tieing in with the mig process. You may need to go back and fill in a pin hole or two but that should be easy enough given the usage of the end product here.
I would post up pics of my tool but im on my phone right now. Sorry.

Remembering Murray Rothbard
It was ten years ago today that Murray N. Rothbard passed away. I have long acknowledged Rothbard's impact on my own intellectual development. One of the books of my"Dialectics and Liberty Trilogy," Total Freedom: Toward a Dialectical Libertarianism, devotes nearly 200 pages to an analysis of his thought. Today, the Mises Institute publishes a fine remembrance of"The Unstoppable Rothbard."

I still remember his laughter. There was alway so much to enjoy being around Murray, his breadth of knowledge, his humor, his friendship.

LSSU Outstanding Alumnus Award '91
Established in 1946 to address the needs of returning World War II veterans and to provide educational opportunities to the people of the Eastern Upper Peninsula, Lake Superior State University still embodies the essence of the early days. A personal education in a safe and friendly environment remains a hallmark of today's LSSU.
Our beautiful 115-acre campus overlooks the Michigan and Ontario twin cities of Sault Ste. Marie, the St. Mary's River, and the world famous Soo Locks.
The campus served as Fort Brady starting in 1893 after the fort was relocated from the banks of the St. Mary's. The fort was deactivated in 1944 and, thanks to the efforts of local volunteers and leadership at Michigan College of Mining & Technology in Houghton, opened in the fall of that year as the Sault Ste. Marie Residence Center of MCMT. The Sault Branch was rechristened Lake Superior State College of Michigan Technical University in 1966. Autonomy arrived for LSSC in 1970. University status was granted in 1987 to the state's smallest public institution of higher learning.

"One of my favorite things about LSSU is its size. The classrooms, especially as you get to the upper levels, get smaller, so you not only have a chance to discuss your ideas in an honest, supportive manner, but you also get to know your professors and classmates. The upper level courses really allow you to focus on what you love, and the small class size allows you to have time to share and to discuss your ideas."

Here Comes the Sun: Ford Looks to the Future of Renewable Energy With a One-of-a-Kind Solar-Powered Concept Car
Article created for My Ford Magazine by: Seth Putnam
Illustration by Bryan Christie
Beyond the Electric Grid
Reliance on the electric grid is one of the biggest challenges to the mass adoption of electric vehicles. That's why Ford is exploring the potential of solar power as the next frontier for alternative forms of vehicle energy—and it is making progress.
Dawn of the Sun-Powered Hybrid
Ford, which teamed up with the Georgia Institute of Technology and SunPower, has developed a revolutionary vehicle called the C-MAX Solar Energi Concept. It's essentially a sun-powered hybrid; the concept uses solar panels on the roof and is projected to have the same 21 miles of all-electric* commuting the base plug-in offers, all while saving an estimated four metric tons of yearly emissions.
Harnessing Renewable Power
"It's about harnessing the power of renewables in a smart way to save in CO2 emissions and monthly bills," says Mike Tinskey, Ford's director of global vehicle electrification and infrastructure.
Part of the reason the C-MAX Solar Energi Concept has succeeded where others have failed is its use of a Fresnel lens, which tracks the sun's rays from dawn until dusk and focuses them on the car parked below. "It's basically a magnifying glass," says Bert Bras, professor of mechanical engineering at Georgia Tech. "Every square meter of sunlight is about one kilowatt of power. If you take 20 square meters of sunlight and concentrate it on the same area, you can get more power."
Challenging Convention
This wouldn't be possible without technology from SunPower, whose high-efficiency cells feature a metal backing for structural support, allowing a thin layer of silicon to bend to the roof, unlike conventional solar cells. "This really is an innovative step Ford has taken," explains Zach Campeau, a product manager for SunPower. "Ford isn't solving for the present; they're solving for the future."
*EPA estimated. Actual range varies with conditions such as external elements, driving behaviors, vehicle maintenance and lithium-ion battery age.

The interbank lending markets remained unstable today, after the US Senate agreed to vote on an amended version of the rescue package.The Ted spread, which tracks the difference between three-month Libor and US Treasury bills, reached 3.34% by 1400 GMT today, down from an all-time high of 3.536% on September 29 but up from 3.15% yesterday.
Three-month US dollar Libor climbed still further today, reaching 4.15% from 4.053% yesterday. Three-month euro and sterling borrowing costs reached yearly highs, increasing to 5.285 % and 6.307% respectively from 5.274% and 6.3% on September 30.
The overnight US dollar Libor rate dropped to 3.794% from a record 6.875% yesterday. Overnight sterling borrowing costs also dropped, to 4.9625 % from 6.780%, a trend echoed by the overnight euro Libor rate, which fell from 4.449% to 4.269% over the same period.
The US Congress voted against the Treasury department's economic rescue legislation on Monday, causing equity markets to slump. However, the Senate agreed yesterday to vote on a revised version of the bill tonight. Several additions have been made - including temporarily raising the limit on federal deposit insurance to $250,000 from $100,000.See also: Interbank lending suffers as $700 billion rescue vehicle breaks down
