Okay, I want to say bad words, but I guess I have to keep it civil.
I am P^$*& and disappointed in myself and I don't even know what to do.
Here's what set me off: I took a *$&%^# Three Minute Step test to assess my cardiovascular fitness. And honestly, what I was trying to find out was whether I rated Very Good or Excellent. (On the 12 minute Cooper run test, I rate "above average") So what was my score on this test?
Yep, that's what it said. VERY POOR.
Well excuuuuuuse me, but that just isn't %(@*&% true! I run and workout 5-6 days a week. I have been doing this now steadily for 3-1/2 years so this isn't new. Off and on I've been running since 1995. I have ran countless races, including a half marathon. I usually finish about the 50th% for my age group although I actually won my age group in one small race. So I'm not a fast runner, but I can hold my own. I'm not someone struggling to bring up the rear or anything.
I run in the heat. I run up hills. I run 10 minute miles. On the days I don't run I do resistance workouts with kettlebells. On the fitness test I was taking I scored EXCELLENT in every other category - sit ups, push ups, squats, sit and reach. Not just good, but EXCELLENT! Then on the step test I score Very Poor.
I can't even think of words to describe how I feel about this. I guess I am in denial, big time. I thought that if I could go out and do a run of several miles on a hilly route on a warm day (and I do it regularly) that I was in good shape. But then I get the rude awakening which tells me that I am falling WAY short. So why the @) do I even bother? I mean what is the point? I don't want anyone telling me to "try harder" because I put forth a great deal of effort and discipline into my workout routine already - just to reach the LOWEST POSSIBLE level of fitness. :( :( :( :( :(
Apparently RUNNING the race is nothing compared to REGISTERING for it!
It took me an hour and a half to complete the online registration due to some server issues they were having. At one point I almost gave up and said, "Forget it, I don't want to run it this badly". But since I ran that qualifying race specifically for the Peachtree I kept trying. What a pain. But I got in. Now just wait for my number and hope for TG 2 or 3.
It is funny this time of year everyone is "training for the Peachtree". Then on July 5 they all quit running until next Spring. Ha-ha. Well my "training for the Peachtree" is pretty much same old/same old running routine. There isn't a lot of point to trying for a PR in the Peachtree although my "secret" (okay not so secret) dream is to come in under an hour.
I never give up, do I? lol
Anyway, off to run, I think I will do 6.2 today in to kick off the PRR countdown......
Actually, I missed my goal by 1 min and 4 secs. 61:03 was my 10K time. While that is the best 10K out of my last four races, it still didn't meet my goal.
It is SO frustrating!
All I'm hoping is that I get a good Peachtree number out of the deal. Today's race was pretty hard core. This wasn't one of those fun run type of events where everyone is just there to have a good time. This was the last chance - and best chance - qualifier for the Peachtree. But on the bright side, the folks out to beat the 55:00 cut off were way ahead of me so I was in a comfortable, less competitive environment (aka the "back of the pack")
Although I often meet my goals, there are times when I don't even come close. This is one of those times (well two of those times if you count the weight loss goals I've never met!)
Anyway, after my Half Marathon, my new goal was to get back up to speed - literally - and qualify for Time Group 1 in the Peachtree. That would be a sub-55:00 time. Since I actually did it once before (okay it was 10 years ago but I did it!) I thought I had a fighting chance to get there again.
Not so much.
The qualifying race is next Saturday. I will be doing stupendous if I break 60:00, never mind 55:00. In other words I'm not even in the neighborhood. Maybe in a way it lets me off the hook. If I was really close, say I was running 57:00-58:00 in training, then I would be really anxious about it. As it is I have faced reality and given up that dream.
SO...what that means is just run the race, submit the time, and get placed in Time Group 2 or 3. That is all fine and well, those aren't too bad and are more my speed anyway. I guess my accomplishment in 1999 will stand as my all time PR, never to be broken.
I'm trying NOT to get anxious about whether I break 60:00. Yeah, I really hope I do, but I haven't done better than 63:00 in training - although I will have "race day" advantages plus the fact that it is a fast, easy course.
We'll see what happens...............
Nothing makes you feel old like becoming a grandmother! But it is worth it. My grandson was born yesterday at 10:00am weighing 9 lbs. (Big babies run in our family!)
Next time I'm out running and some 20 year old zips by me, I'll be thinking, "Yeah, you're all that. You can out run someone's Grandma"! LOL

Sarasota County consultant recommends rescinding credit card restrictions
Date: January 28, 2013
by: Alex Mahadevan | News Editor
The National Institute of Governmental Purchasing, a consultant Sarasota County hired in 2011 to analyze procurement practices, will give a final report to County commissioners Jan. 29.
The firm will recommend reverting restrictions on county purchasing credit cards, aka p-cards, to their previous usage allowance prior to the 2011 purchasing scandal that forced former County Administrator Jim Ley to resign.
P-cards currently carry a $50,000 limit and can't be used on term contracts. The National Institute of Governmental Purchasing identified inefficiencies from p-card restrictions such as a situation in which a worker drove 30 miles to pick up supplies at a county warehouse.
P-card spending fell 59% from $15.1 million in the 2011 fiscal year to $6.2 million in 2012.
The firm also recommends the county raise the $50,000 threshold requiring the "rigorous" sealed bid or proposal process to $100,000. Contractors complained the limit prevented them from submitting quotes for Siesta Key Village crosswalk lighting.
Currently 1 Response
- 1.
- Wait just a minute... Wasn't it abuse of those credit cards that caused a lot of the problems??? Leave the restrictions in place and adress the bidding problem as a seperate issue.

Bizzy Crook - Steal Your Heart
Artist: Bizzy Crook
Producer: Jocko
Album: P.S I'm Sorry 2
Avg Rating: 4.5 ( 26 votes )
Personally, when I hear the phrase Steal Your Heart I think of that scene from Indiana Jones & the Temple of Doom, but that's just because I'm a child of the '80s. Luckily, Bizzy Crook has a far more pleasing sound in mind for the world premiere of his new single, enlisting producer Jocko for an expertly sampled beat (can anyone name that sample?) that borders on the epic with its operatic drums and layered synths. For his part the Miami representer promises a lucky lady that, ready or not, he's prepared to do everything possible to capture the full extent of her affections. While we're still waiting on an official release date for Crook's upcoming P.S I'm Sorry 2 album, those finding their heart strings tugged by Bizzy can cop his last project, the Good Luck EP, available for free stream and download via The DJBooth.

Despite retailers stocking up on essentials, the prices of fruits and vegetables rose by at least 20 per cent
The usually busy Koyambedu market, the city's wholesale hub for perishable goods, wore a deserted look on Tuesday as traders and labourers went on strike in support of Sri Lankan Tamils.
Traders downed shutters of over 4,000 shops in the fruits, flowers and vegetable markets in the wholesale complex demanding the Central government adopt a resolution in Parliament on human rights violations in Sri Lanka and seek an international enquiry on war crimes against Sri Lankan Tamils.
An attempt to burn an effigy of Sri Lankan president Mahinda Rajapaksa was averted by the police.
As the traders had planned the 24-hour strike, which began on 10 p.m. on Monday, in advance, vehicles transporting goods from other States as far as Maharashtra were diverted to other markets. M. Thyagarajan, executive committee member of the federation of Koyambedu wholesale traders association, said that the daily turnover of the market is nearly Rs. 25-30 crore, including sales of flowers.
Besides traders, nearly 20,000 daily labourers gave up their wages of Rs. 200-300 for the cause. This is the second time in the last one year that the market is downing shutters over the issue.
However, the strike did not affect the retail trade much as most traders had purchased additional quantities of produce to last for a day. The price of most vegetables did go up by 20 per cent. S. Srinivasan, another trader said "The rise in prices may continue on Wednesday and the situation will stabilise by Wednesday evening."

Teachers' contracts at center of Deerfield voting
The first contract is between the Deerfield School Board and the Deerfield Education Association, the district's teachers union. While the raises are not uniform, they constitute a 3-percent increase over the next three years, providing a total of $113,718 in salary and benefit increases for 2013-2014, $117,183 for 2014-2015, and a $120,767 increase for 2015-2016.
The contract also includes language allowing employees to use sick time to care for a parent, corrections to the order of appeal in the case of a grievance and procedural guidelines when a position is being reduced.
Another agreement between the school board and the Deerfield Para-educators Association will be on the ballot, a two-year contract providing a total of $38,634 in increases for 2013-2014, and $27,929 for 2014-2015.
The para-educators' contract also includes language allowing new members to contribute to the sick bank even if the bank is full, deleting excess days to accommodate this, with a cap set at 30, as well as language to allow negotiations to open "if needed due to (the) Affordable Heath Care Act."
The teachers' contract is estimated to have a tax impact of about 21 cents per $1,000, and the para-educators' contract is figured at about 7 cents per $1,000. For a home evaluated at $250,000, this would result in a $50 and $17.50 impact, respectively.
Both the Deerfield School Board and Budget Committee have recommended the agreements, though this has not proved to be a rubber stamp for the warrants in the past. The para-educators' contract has not passed in the last three elections. In that time, the teachers' contract only passed in 2011, the same year a 30-minute increase in the school day was also instituted.
The reason behind the nay votes, however, are unclear, as few voters have approached town and school officials with their concerns.
"It's somewhat frustrating because the majority of voters are voting down the contracts, but no one comes to our meetings or comes to the deliberative session and expresses anything negative about them," said Budget Committee Chair Donald Daley. "We rely on who's there . and it's hard to create something they would support if they don't hear from them."
The budget committee and school board are making a case that another failed contract vote could make it difficult for the district to attract and retain qualified teachers.
"We have many retiring teachers and we will need to be bringing in the brightest and best new teachers," said Daley. "We won't get those new teachers without accepting contracts."
The principal of the Deerfield Community School indicated that at least 16 employees, or over 25 percent of the district's staff, are seeking employment outside of the district. Compared to other New Hampshire districts, school wages in Deerfield are in the bottom 30 percent.
The Deerfield Education Association is also bringing its case to the voters, holding "positive picketing" rallies such as one at the Deerfield Community School before classes on the morning of March 11. The association is hoping that increased outreach will help their chances this year at the ballot, believing the failures of the previous contracts to be due in part to the failure of the union to connect with voters.
Deerfield's town election is today at the town hall on 10 Church Street. The polls will be open from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m.

5.0 out of 5 stars A sixties masterpiece,
By A Customer
This review is from: Sinfonia, Eindrucke (Audio CD)
This is the great classical work of the nineteen sixties: an exuberant collage of bits and pieces by other composers superimposed on a movement from a Mahler symphony. It's the moment when all Berio's experience and experiments came together for the first time to make a masterpiece that speaks to the widest audience (and not just classical fans). It's a typically (for Berio) multi-layered work, encompassing exciting orchestral virtuosity, politics, singing, death (there is a moving lament for Martin Luther King) and, above all, sheer energy and fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars 1960s Cult Classic in 1980s State of the Art Digital Sound,
This review is from: Sinfonia, Eindrucke (Audio CD)
Having just returned from a great concert at the Festival Hall London with this piece by the Sao Paulo Orchestra on tour under Marin Alsop with the latest grouping of the redoubtable Swingle Singers, I returned - yet again, I am a child of the Sixties being aged 9 to 18 through that decade - anyway, to this very special disc in the original ERATO release, I must say thank you Mr Boulez, as on the record, and all the other reviewers who mainly think this is a top ten recording. The playfulness, rage and protest (yes it occupies a special boiling point in that decade in the aftermath of the Paris student riotswhere it was composed) but sheer toppsy turvey chic and flair of those years is all there. "Keep going going"...yes, to the thousands in Brazil and elsewhere round the world who were to be hunted down and murdered by the henchman in various fascist regimes and military dictatorships round the world sponsored by the USA. It's a fun piece, but the underlying meaning is deadly subversive and triumphant! Or is it a reminder that those dark days have never gone away?
I think this performance is there, centred in the heart of the music. I can imagine more driven performances, but I really love clarity and focus. So this is great. Also authentic...given the performers.
The sound on this disc is absolutely fabulous. Each voice and instrument is accurately pinpointed - more than one can say in the dreadful acoustic of the Festival Hall (and I was in a �50 seat). For an early digital disc some miracle happened here, which defies explanation, especially when you consider some of the stinkers turned out by Erato and Radio France over the years.
The Sinfonia was dedicated to Leonard Bernstein, a very representative figure of the 1960s, and his student, Marin Alsop gave London a great performance coupling it with Lenny's Symphonic Dances from West Side Story. But it was the Berio that stole the show!

DESOTO COUNTY Fla.- By two o'clock Thursday, the word had already spread to most of the employees at the Department of Juvenile Justice in DeSoto County that they could lose their jobs. DeSoto County Commissioner Judy Schaefer says that closing the facility does not fall in line with campaign promises made by state legislators. "The whole deal is that were supposed to be getting jobs were not supposed to be losing them", Schaefer said.
Schaefer also says she is deeply disappointed in the Governors decision not to use a line item veto that would have kept the facility open "by him not vetoing it, it's detrimental as far as the county is concerned because of the loss of jobs" Shaefer said. More than 400 people stand to lose their jobs at the facility. Not only will unemployment skyrocket in the county, but it will also have a huge impact on the county's budget. "Were right now fixing to start on our budget so it affects the tax base too so its just detrimental", Schaefer said.
Managers at the facility would not talk about the Governors decision because they were on duty and they are not allowed to talk to the media while they are working, but they did say that there was a high level of anxiety among employees on Thursday. Community leaders are now holding on to hope that the facility will be privatized instead of closed for good

|Chargers sign veteran offensive lineman Newberry
|Written by Admin
|Monday, 02 June 2008 17:10
Hardwick had surgery on his sprained right foot on March 14. The team said at the time that he would need four to six months to recover.
Hardwick was hurt early in a game against the Oakland Raiders on Oct. 14 and missed the next four games. He played in the final six regular-season games and three playoff games.
He's played mostly at center, but also at guard and tackle.
Newberry started 14 games for the rival Oakland Raiders last year. He was taken by San Francisco in the second round of the 1998 draft and went to the Pro Bowl after the 2001 and 2002 seasons.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Around the NFL
High praise for Niners QB Kaepernick
SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick received high praise from ESPN analyst Ron Jaworski and managed to take it in stride.
"I truly believe Colin Kaepernick could be one of the greatest quarterbacks ever," Jaworski said Wednesday on ESPN. "I love his skill set. I think the sky's the limit."
Kaepernick was asked how he handles such lofty projections.
"I'm working," he responded. "To me, it's a great honour he said that. I'm very flattered by it. But at the same time, I haven't played a full season yet."
Kaepernick took over as the 49ers starting quarterback after Alex Smith was injured last season and led San Francisco to the Super Bowl.
He emerged as one of the NFL's most potent dual-threat quarterbacks, throwing for 1,814 yards and 10 touchdowns in seven regular-season games and rushing for 415 yards and five touchdowns.
He threw four touchdown passes in three post-season games and rushed for 181 yards in the NFC division playoffs against Green Bay, setting the single-game NFL playoff rushing record for a quarterback.
The 49ers are considered a Super Bowl contender this season and Kaepernick, after just 10 NFL starts, is one of the league's biggest stars.
Kaepernick also appears on the cover of the latest GQ magazine.
Lee inks extension
IRVING, Texas -- Dallas Cowboys middle linebacker Sean Lee signed a six-year contract extension Wednesday, a deal that goes through the 2019 season.
A story on the team's website Wednesday night said Lee's deal is worth about $42 million, but could escalate as high as $51 million depending on different incentives. The guaranteed money is around $16 million.
"I'm extremely excited. I was blessed to be able to be drafted by a great franchise," Lee said in a video interview posted along with the story. "To have an opportunity to be here a long time and hopefully compete for a Super Bowl is fantastic."
Foster back to work
HOUSTON -- Houston running back Arian Foster was removed from the physically unable to perform list Wednesday and practised with the Texans for the first time since May.
Foster strained his right calf in an off-season practice in late May and struggled with a sore back after recovering from that injury.
"It's really important," coach Gary Kubiak said. "He's been working, it's not like he's been standing around. He's been trying to get all that soreness out and he felt really good the last two days. I think we took a big step forward."
Kubiak thought that Foster would have returned to practice sooner than he did, but he understood why he was out as long as he was.
"I was watching him work and watching what he was going though so I felt confident that we were close and ready to go," Kubiak said. "I also understand how important it was that they did it at the right time. The key is Arian felt good about it today and that's the most important thing."

Game Day Recon: Western Conference Quarterfinal Game 5 - Blackhawks @ Canucks
The Vancouver Canucks will try once again to close out their opening round series with the Chicago Blackhawks tonight as the two teams go head-to-head at Rogers Arena tonight. The Canucks were embarrassed in Game 4 and will want to return to the form that they showed in their two home games to start the series. And to be a whole lot less sucktastic.

There's no point sugar-coating it. The Canucks performance yesterday was brutal, and the game was simply hard to watch.
Is there anything that makes Canucks fans as uniquely furious as watching their team lose to Chicago, in the Mad House, in a blow-out? I found that the anger physiologically lodged itself in the pit of my stomach, a sensation similar to the one you get when you leave your belly some 40 feet behind you on a roller coaster - except it's a dull, resentful feeling - totally devoid of "amusement park ride" exhilaration.

Game Day Recon: Western Conference Quarterfinal Game 4 - Canucks @ Blackhawks
The Vancouver Canucks look to close out their first round series against the Chicago Blackhawks tonight with an unexpected 4-game sweep. While many predicted the Canucks to win this series, I don't think anyone (except for the overzealous Canucks fans wearing blue/green coloured glasses) predicted a potential sweep of the reigning Stanley Cup champions.
Could the Canucks slay their playoff dragon tonight?

Game Day Review: Western Conference Quarterfinal Game 3 - Canucks @ Blackhawks
The Vancouver Canucks have spent all year doing things first and best. And they did it again. They are now the first team in this post-season to get to three wins. It is the first time in three post-seasons that the Canucks have won three games against the Chicago Blackhawks. And while they were not the best team on the ice last night, they sure as hell had the best goalie on the night.

Last month.
So today we say hello to December, the last month of 2013. Has it really been that fast?? I remember just blogging a post in September about how we're in the 4th quarter and suddenly 2months have disappeared in an instant.
And within these 2 months, my brother was done with his Alevels, and my boyf was just recently done with his peak period at work. Poor boy went home at about 3-5am every day for a week and we didn't talk on the phone for 1 entire week cos he had no time. Missed him so much But nevermind it's finally over!!
Looking at my schedule, I'm practically packed every weekend with celebrations/meet-ups! And Christmas – which is my favourite season of the year – is also around the corner! I loveee Christmas decorations and Christmas carols. I think everyone loves it too if not they wouldn't start putting up those decors in Nov for 2mths…
Santa's a pirate this Christmas at CityLink!
Hehe so cute!
Having a splitting headache but I can't afford to fall sick cos I've sooo many things to settle at work! There seems to be this flu bug going around so drink up and rest well everybody!

The State Council of Higher Education for Virginia show that more than 425,000 in-state students are expected six years from now. That's a 14% increase by 2013.
Community colleges are expected to account for nearly 200,000 of those students. The report says Virginia's four-year colleges are planning for 19% growth during the same period, so it doesn't look like access will be a problem.
The council's projections are used to help develop the state budget for higher education. Projections aren't made on out-of-state students because they don't drive state higher education funding.

by Michael Hogan, posted Oct 5th 2011 12:30PM
While the film doesn't reach the sublime heights scaled by the director's Bob Dylan movie, 'No Direction Home,' it does paint a moving and nuanced portrait of the guitarist, songwriter and spiritual seeker, who succumbed to lung cancer on November 29, 2001. But you don't care about that: You want the facts! So here they are -- all seven of them.

Adele's PBS 'Live From the Artists Den' Performance (Video)
In the intimate concert, streaming from Hulu, the pop superstar sings a string of her hits from "Rolling in the Deep" to "Someone Like You" to "Chasing Pavements."
Are you an Adele fan? Then A) take a number because so is 90 percent of the world, apparently and B) you're in for a treat, because Hulu has its hands on the pop superstar's PBS "Live From the Artists Den" performance.
In the episode, she sings a smorgasbord of her hits including "Rolling in the Deep," "Someone Like You," "Turning Tables" and "Chasing Pavements."
There's also a backstage interview with Adele, discussing her songwriting process and the breakup that resulted in her smash sophomore album 21, which has sold millions of copies worldwide.
VIDEO: Adele Opens Up About Vocal Cord Surgery On '60 Minutes'
She's set to perform during the Grammy Awards' Sunday telecast on CBS, marking her first time singing live in five months. The 23-year-old star went on hiatus several months ago after being forced to cancel her U.S. tour so she could have vocal cord surgery.
The singer is up for six trophies: record of the year, song of the year and best short form music video for "Rolling In The Deep"; album of the year and best pop vocal album for 21; and best pop solo performance for "Someone Like You."
Watch Hulu's PBS clip below.

A rare voice from the internet underground on Today this morning. Cold Blood is a member of the informal alliance of hackers that goes by the name Anonymous. The loosely-coordinated group came together to attack the Church of Scientology's web site in 2008 and is now taking credit for 'Operation Payback' - the attacks on the web sites of organisations withdrawing their services from Wikileaks.
Cold Blood is a twenty two year-old software engineer and, when asked who he admired, named Kevin Mitnick (jailed hacker legend) and Linus Torvalds (originator of the Linux operating system). When asked about his politics, he professed not to know. An intriguing insight into the mind of thecounterculture that supports Wikileaks.

"When asked about his politics, he professed not to know."
When he said: "I don't really know" could he have meant that he did not know how to give a satisfactory answer to such a question in the time available? Do not his actions tell us something significant about his politics?
It was quite funny when an email from a listener, Dr T G was read out who wanted to know if Cold Blood had a girlfriend. I'll not mention his full name in case his website, if he has one, will inexplicably crash in the near future!
I was shocked that radio 4 would interview one of these cyber-terrorists. This small group of people aim to cause mayhem for anyone they dislike, imposing their will on others. Whatever happened to peacful protest,and democracy? To your shame you have given them publicity, and astonishingly Evan Davis gave them legitimacy, judging by the obvious admiration he displayed when he asked the interviewee how he got into this activity. What next? Interviews with murderers, thieves, and wife beaters, with James Naughtie gushing about their exciting lifestyle? Disgraceful.
where was my bloody comment , i do not want to read from Hacks that write for the beeb, as you are just lackey's and write and say what is expected of you, ie don't write anything that says anything. where is my comment i just wrote....??
The anonymous group along with the 2600 hacker group have already distanced themselves from this negative publicity. Anonymous does not use the forums 4chan to publish attacks on websites. They have there own underground forum and no part of the anonymous forums reflects anything with regards to this.
AnonOps & Anonymous are NOT the same group!!
Here is a few Angry comments from Anonymous:
First: If you use a proxy server while participating in a DDOS attack, you will simply DDOS the proxy. Trying to run LOIC through a proxy will simply harass the proxy, and in most cases, shut it down and you will be entirely unsuccessful.
Second: DDOS in ANY form, no matter who are what you are targeting is ILLEGAL. You are just as bad as the Anonops folks, but even worse in the fact that you are supposedly doing it in the cause of 'right'. Jesus said to turn the other cheek.
Also: You cannot DDOS a specific web page or twitter account. DDOS is a SERVER attack. You will be attacking the entire twitter service, which is not only impossible for you to bring down, but retarded, and frankly, it's worse than what Anonops is doing.
The Anonymous Group protests about Scientology.
The 2600 Group protests about Crackers & Kids doing illegal things and having the Media highlight and glorify there actions as being the Acts of Hackers!
Need I say more?
