I have several old Titans I use with beginners and was looking for the exact same bows to keep things consistent but these are scarce. I'm glad I stumbled upon your site because these are perfect. Now if only I could find replacement strings! Thanks.

|good inexpensive bow
|Date: September 14, 2010
I needed a good inexpensive bow for a small non-profit program designed to inspire budding archers. It's a very entry level course. This bow was an acceptable option, since it was more like a traditional bow. Considering the next step up is about $40 more, we are satisfied. I still have a twenty year old fiberglass bow that works fine and it looks practically identical to this one. Works fine. So far, so good. I'll let you know if that changes, but right now this is doing the job fine.

Sport Tips
Which bow and arrow are right for me?
When selecting the right type of arrow, consider the shaft material, the arrow length, the fletching/vane material, and the draw weight.
|Fiberglass Shaft
Straighter and more consistent than wood; very stiff. Heavier weight makes them more durable but means they won't fly as quickly.
|Aluminum Shaft
Lighter weight, precision-machined for straightness and true flight; most stiff. Most durable and preferred for competition.
|Wood Shaft
Lightest weight, economical; less stiff. Excellent flight, and great for beginners or users with lower bow draw weights.
|Arrow Length
The arrow length should be about 1" longer than the distance from the user's chest to fingertips (arms extended and palms together).
Middle School: 24"-26"L
High School: 28"-30"L
|Fletching/Vane Material
Feather: Lightweight and forgiving; flies true.
Plastic: Durable, long-lasting, and weather-resistant; quiet in flight.
|Draw Weight
Match arrows with bow draw weight. A comfortable draw weight should require 75% or less of the user's maximum strength. Generally users 100-130 lb use a 25-35 lb draw weight, while users 130-160 lb use a 30-40 lb draw weight.
|Bow Types
Recurve - Simple design with few components for institutional durability. Relies more on user technique for accuracy.
Compound - Easier to draw, aim, and shoot due to its energy-storing pulley system. Allows arrow to go greater distances.
|AMO Length
AMO length is an industry standard of bow/string length, measured from tip to tip along the bow's curved edge. Under tension, bowstrings run 3"-4" shorter than AMO length. Order by AMO length.

Justin Bieber's Stratford
Everyone knows that Justin is from Stratford, Ontario and he is our favourite pop star. Although he is an international musical sensation, he still comes back to visit his good friends. Growing up in Stratford there were lots of places that he hung out at or have special meaning for him - from the steps of the Avon Theatre where he first started singing and earned enough to take his Mom to Disneyworld to the place he went on his first date. We have created a map to help you take a tour of Justin Bieber's Stratford – the schools he went to; the ice cream parlour he went to after soccer games and the skate park where he learned his moves for his videos.
Download our Bieber-iffic Map to Stratford and have a great time!

George Santayana: " Everything in nature is lyrical in its ideal essence, tragic in its fate, and comic in its existence"...William Hazlitt: "Pictures are scattered like stray gifts through the world; and while they remain, earth has yet a little gilding."
G C Lichtenberg: "It is as if our languages were confounded: when we want a thought, they bring us a word; when we ask for a word, they give us a dash; and when we expect a dash, there comes a piece of bawdy."
W H Auden: "But in my arms till break of day / Let the living creature lie. / Mortal, guilty, but to me/ The entirely beautiful."
Will Self: "To attempt to write seriously is always, I feel, to fail – the disjunction between my beautifully sonorous, accurate and painfully affecting mental content, and the leaden, halting sentences on the page always seems a dreadful falling short. It is this failure – a ceaseless threnody keening through the writing mind – that dominates my working life, just as an overweening sense of not having loved with enough depth or recklessness or tenderness dominates my personal one."
John Gray: "Unlike Schopenhauer, who lamented the human lot, Leopardi believed that the best response to life is laughter. What fascinated Schopenhauer, along with many later writers, was Leopardi's insistence that illusion is necessary to human happiness."
Art Spiegelman: "You know words in a way are hitting you on the left side of your brain, music and visual arts hit on the right side of the brain, so the idea is to pummel you, to send you from left brain to right brain and back until you're as unbalanced as I am."

Crucifixion may not be that Bad but Christ is Still Suffering
"A noted literary theorist has sparked fury among Christians by uttering that the Crucifixion of Christ was not as bad as it has been painted…
…It is learnt that he said that Jesus's scourging was a "blessing in disguise" because it hastened his death.
…"If the New Testament account is to be believed it took him only three hours to die whereas a lot of those killed by this hideous mode of execution thrashed around on their crosses for days," he added.
The paper reports that Prof. T. Eagleton concluded his talk with an attack on contemporary Christianity, claiming that it had abandoned the poor and dispossessed in favour of the "rich and aggressive".
"It's horrified by the sight of a female breast but nothing like as horrified by the obscene inequalities between rich and poor," the paper quoted him as saying…"
This brought to my mind following lines:
"... म्हणजे पुन्हा यश हाच एक सत्याचा क्षुद्र निकष! त्याने प्रेमाचा व शांतीचा संदेश सांगितला, पण प्रसार झाला तो तलवारीच्या जोरावर; त्याने निरिच्छतेवर भर दिला, तर आता त्याच्या धर्माचा आधार आहे संपत्ती. हां तुला त्याचा विजय वाटतो, तसे पहिले तर त्याचे सच्चे अनुयायी एखाद्या खेड्यातील वसतीपेक्षा जास्त नसतील. पण म्हणून का त्याच्या शिकवणीचे महत्व कमी होते?"
"…So again success is the only petty criterion of the truth! He gave message of love and peace, but it spread with the force of sword; he asserted lack of desrire, but now his religion's support is wealth. Do you think this is his victory, if seen his true followers will not exceed population of a village. But then does it reduce importance of his teachings?"
(जी ए कुलकर्णी "यात्रिक" पिंगळावेळ G A Kulkarni "The Pilgrim" from "Owl Time" 1977)
How to rationalize obscene inequalities between rich and poor? Using god - someone up there!
As long this inequality exists, Christ will continue to suffer. Remember what Steven Weinberg has said: "I have never understood why untalented people deserve less of world's good things than other people."
Artist: Barney Tobey The New Yorker 19 September 1959

What I like the most was the very helpful staff at the front fest very pleasant. Because of him I might return
The experience in the restaurant was poor.
1. THE BEACH!! Wow what a great location... the beach is beautiful, tranquil and well kept. You can sit out on a jetty on the sea and take in the views; the water is crystal clear - beautiful! 2. The fact that it is near the university also meant that there are shops near by \walking distance) where you can pick up supplies (a local market of stalls; a supermarket complex; restaurants, takeaways and a launderette). 3. The free WIFI connection is great and you can get a good signal; even in the bar/restaurant. The studio includes a TV with some good channels. 4. The studio that where we stayed was very comfortable and clean - the cleaners were so friendly and courteous. 5. The breakfast menu is great - from 'Continental' to 'Full English' to the 'Dominican eye-opener' and much more... yum! The reception staff are really polite and informative. They really make you feel welcome and generally the staff always say a 'good morning' or 'hello' to you. 6. They offer great activities such as sailing, canoeing, spa treatments plus diving and whale spotting at their sister hotel 'The Anchorage Hotel'; booking through PBH is simple. 7. The grounds to the hotel are beautiful and are kept really well; view from our balcony was gorgeous and you see a variety of different birds and iguanas and other lizards hobbling around the grounds.
1. Some of the staff let the team down; first impressions were not good at the security gate where our cab pulled up to the gate and the security person could not be bothered to get up and enquire or open the gate for us - our cab driver had to ask them if something was the matter... and they really were rude (dragging there feet when walking up to us... kissing their teeth - not impressive to say the least). 2. Some of the bar and restaurant staff can be a bit stand offish in their attitude towards you. They say that the restaurant closes at 23:00 so ordering at 21:30 seems to irritate some of the staff (again the attitude in some comes across). 3. The restaurant does not have the option of taking food away to your studio room should you wish to do so. 4. The studio room could have a couple of more basic supplies in the kitchen section e.g. it had 2 glasses, 2 plates and 2 folks - BUT only had 1 knife and 1 bowl... NO cups and a second knife and bowl; no spoons. It has a microwave and a fridge with a sink which is good but it would of been nice to have a toaster. 5. It's great that the studio has an air conditioner however it works best when the windows are closed HOWEVER the windows are permanently open and you can not reach the lock at the top to undo to release the window to bring it down to close (an there is no chair you can stand on). You would have to keep ringing down to the front desk for assistance; in the end you just don't bother so just leave the aircon' on and hope for the best! The self - catering cottages sound better.
The staff of the hotel is friendly. The hotel it self is right on the nice beach and the transport to everywhere is easy although the closes stores and restaurants are in walking distance
Kitchenet virtually non existent. There was no kitchenware at all when we arrived. After asking for 2 days straight to get some kitchenware we got a pot, butter knifes, forks, mugs and spoons, we didn't even get cutting knife,can opener and some necesary stuff to prepare a basic meal. If the hotel is selling for higher price per night due to kitchenette it is expected to be fully equiped. It's funny that they expect tourist to bring along pots and pans and cutlery...BIG Minus! Although the room is clean, it needs al lot of refurbishing. All the furniture is old and dark, the ac is barely working(it would need gas- refilling), so it needs to be on all the time and set to lowest temp and high fan to provide some effect. Bathroom is very poorly maintained, the shower was leaking, the sink was miniature with two pipes (very hot or very cold water) with no plug. We didn't feel very safe leaving our stuff in the room while the entrance door are barely a door (old and damaged, big hole at the bottom), we got a feeling that even child would be able to break the lock. For two persons there was only one wooden chair in the room and one plastic one on the balcony (where and how would we have proper sitting or meal?), no table on balcony. (We asked for additional chair and table but we didn't get it - but many other balconies had 3 or 4 chairs and not only one table). At the restaurant we didn't try the food as we were dissapointed that all they had to offer in a very advertised happy hour (with cocktails etc.) was one brand of beer. So bottom line: Been there, done that, never again until renovation ;)
I liked it was very close to the Med. School RossU and its perfect for any visit to the school.
Bed aint that good, tho i dont complain much. There was no Safe in our room where i could leave my passport secure. AC has been tempered to just stay on LOW power, you can only change the Temp.
This was our second visit and we were happy to return.
The kitchenette had no pots or pans, crockery or cutlery, as it had on our prevous visit. Staff suppled crockery and cutlery when asked ,but no pans so we were unable to cook. I dont feel the aprtments should be advertised with a kitchenette unless they are fully equipped for self catering.
did not like anything that place is a total ripoff
everything especialy wasting my money. The bathroom shower was leaking the place is just not worth it
Everything! It was a fantastic stay, the staff was very helpful and sweet, especially our housekeeper Blanche :) The hotel upgraded our stay, and our cottage was situated on a beautiful beach coast (Picard Beach). Sea was always calm, clean, could see lots of different birds, iguanas and lizards. Our cottage included free wifi, TV with sattellite channels, and an equipped kitchen. We could cook our own food, and the grocery store was only 2 minutes walk away. We loved it!
Unable to adjust shower water temperature very well, was nice ot have hot water but not easy to regulate, either too hot or cold.
The hotel is in a quiet and relaxing environment, the room is not elaborately furnished but is very comfortable. The staff from every department were very polite and helpful. If you want a clean reasonably priced accommodation choose this location. This is my second visit to this location in as many years. Will go again.
Great service, the staff were very friendly and helpful. Rooms were always clean and easy functional. Very relaxing place to stay for vacation, business or otherwise.
The staff was excellent very helpful anything I needed they were right there when I called them. Any questtions were answered right away by the staff. They also put me into beach front cabin wonderful. My daughter was so pleased since she was going to Ross med school there she really got to enjoy it before starting classes and starting her new life there.

Twenty-four years later, five billion seems like a distant memory. The global population was estimated at 7,025,071,966 this day last year.
As you think about the meaning of World Population Day, here are five talks on world issues that imagine both problems and solutions on a large scale.

Peggy Post Wedding Etiquette
Etiquette expert Peggy Post answers commonly asked questions about wedding etiquette topics, including seating arrangements, wedding presents, gift registries, second weddings, and who pays for what.
By Peggy Post
Paying for a Destination Wedding
Q: My fiance and I are getting married in Jamaica. Are we expected to help any members of our bridal party pay for their airfare? We're worried that if we do this for only a couple of attendants but not for all of them, they might compare notes and feelings will be hurt.
A: "Destination weddings," which are becoming more popular, usually dictate a smaller bridal party (and guest list) for this very reason. Such affairs can be hard on the pocketbook. But subsidies aren't required: If someone you've asked to be in the wedding can't afford the trip, he or she can always decline for that reason. Then it's your call whether you want to offer some financial assistance. If you do end up paying for an attendant or two, explain that you're relying on their discretion to keep mum. I'm sure they'll understand this is a private matter and restrain themselves from comparing notes.

Most Frequently Challenged Library Books of 2011
The American Library Association (ALA) has released its annual list of the most frequently challenged library books of the year. We've linked to free samples of all the books on the list–follow the links below to read these controversial books yourself.
During the past year, the ALA Office for Intellectual Freedom received 326 reports of "attempts to remove or restrict materials from school curricula and library bookshelves." The list was part of the ALA's 2012 State of America's Libraries Report.
Here's more eBook news from the report: "The rapid growth of ebooks has stimulated increasing demand for them in libraries, but libraries only have limited access to ebooks because of restrictions placed on their use by publishers. Macmillan Publishing, Simon and Schuster and Hachette Book Group refused to sell ebooks to libraries. HarperCollins imposed an arbitrary 26 loans per ebook license, and Penguin refused to let libraries lend its new titles altogether. When Random House raised ebook prices, the ALA urged it to reconsider."

Naru Kawamoto (Japanese)
Often referred to as "Taka-san", Kawamura specializes in power tennis. He is often placed in doubles and has been paired with Shusuke Fuji and Takeshi Momoshiro, but would sometimes play singles if another power tennis player is pitted in the position.
He's also an old friend of Yamabuki player Jin Akutsu, whom he met in a karate dojo before he started playing tennis; when Akutsu retires from tennis after Yamabuki's loss to Seigaku, he makes Kawamura promise that he'll work hard in tennis from then on.
Kawamura has brown hair in a slight Elvis Presley hair style. He has relatively long side-burns. He also also slightly big ears. He has brown round eyes rather than "flat" eyes.
Kawamura is a soft-spoken person off the court, very gentle and shy, though still outspoken and stubborn when he takes a decision. He is very caring and does tend to worry a lot (regarding his future and friends). It is also shown that Kawamura can get very flustered when people tease about his lovelife. Like when the Seigaku regulars mistake Atuksu's incredibly young-looking mother as Kawamura's girlfriend.
However despite his quiet personality, he becomes extremely aggressive and loud once he grabs his racket, or any racket. This change dramatic change is marked by him shouting "Burning!!!" "Great!!!" "Baby!" His personality along with these keywords when he holds a racket is most likely just for comic relief, but his personality change does have a large impact on his skills. While in his Burning Mode, he has a tendency to speak in English and to call people, mainly underclassmen, monkeys. Once in this persona Kawamura becomes filled with confidence and does not think before he speaks. He also sometimes refers to himself as "Ore-sama" (My magnificent self, The great I) during this phase.
Kawamura's style of play is Aggressive Baseliner and in the original Japanese, he often punctuates his play with English expressions (In the English adaptations, he uses rather unorthodox language). There was a match were he was especially excited and the three first years commented that he was amazing, but that he was no longer speaking Japanese.
Two Years Prior To The Storyline
Kawamura joined Seigaku's tennis club as a first year student. Although he had a lot of power, he was ridiculed by many of the older members of the club because he had no other skills, and couldn't make successful shots; older regulars even nicknamed him "home-run guy" and said he should switch to the baseball team. However, he found close friends in his fellow first years, most of whom were notoriously skilled, such as Tezuka Kunimitsu, Fuji Shusuke, Oishi Shuichiro, Kikumaru Eiji, and Inui Sadaharu; Tezuka even told Kawamura openly that he was envious of his physical power. Together with them, he became a part of Seigaku's future.
He is currently a third year student, and in this year he has finally made it as one of the tennis team's regulars. He also works at his father's sushi shop, and intends to quit tennis after middle school to concentrate on his future career as a sushi chef. His goal is to own the #1 Sushi store in Japan.
Kawamura and Seigaku cruised their way through to the Tokyo District finals.
Kawamura and Seigaku entered the Prefecturals as amongst the favorites after winning their District Tournament.
For the semifinals, Ginka forfeited the whole match against Seigaku out of fear after realizing their strength. Seigaku ended up taking on Yamabuki in the Finals of the Tournament.
Seigaku's first match in the regionals goes against last year's finalists Hyotei. This match is perhaps the most important match of the year for both teams as it means no matter the situation only one of the two big name teams would be able to go to the nationals. Kawamura plays in Singles 3 against Kabaji Munehiro in the contest between Power Players. The end result was the use use of the one-handed Hadoukyuu being too much for both Kawamura and Kabaji, so neither players were able to continue creating a null game.
Prior to Seigaku beginning the Nationals, Kawamura makes a vow to become the #1 Power Player at the National Level. In the national semifinals, he plays S2 (Singles 2) against Shitenhōji's Gin Ishida who knows 108 styles of Hadokyū, who appears to currently be the #1 Power Player. Kawamura's top shot is the Hadokyū, which he originally learned after seeing it performed by Fudomine Middle School's Tetsu Ishida, the younger brother of Gin.
After losing 23 points in a row to the first 23 styles of Hadoukyū, he is down 5-0, 40-0 when he is knocked into the stands, where he is caught by Akutsu. Inspired by Akutsu, Kawamura returns newly awakened and begins hitting Hadokyū's again. His final shot, what he called his Final Hadokyū. He injures Gin's wrist because the power of the Final Hadoukyū surpasses Gin's 108 styles of Hadoukyū. In the end, Gin was forced to forfeit and making Kawamura the #1 Power Player in Junior High School.
Despite his victory, Kawamura attains a large list of injuries to his body had to leave for the hospital right after his match. The injuries that he obtained were three broken ribs, a damaged femur, an injured heel bone, a sprained ankle, and internal bruising on his neck.
Prior To U-17 Camp
Shortly after the Nationals, Kawamura went to visit his younger relative who was staying in a hospital in Kanagawa and brought a stuffed to toy for her as a gift. On the way, he walks into a distracted Kirihara who was buying materials for his School's Ocean Festival where the Rikkai Dai Tennis club had to stage a production of Cinderella. AS he walks into Kirihara
U-17 Camp
Kawamura along with his Seigaku teammates recieves an invitation to the U-17 Camp due to the high quality of middle schoolers in this years tournament. He arrives at the camp with his teammates only to find that several other middle schoolers that the team have faced before are also invited to the camp. Kawamura like all of the 50 middle schoolers invited is able to retrieve a ball that the helicopter drops which was the requirement to be allowed to stay in the camp.
He watches as his fellow Middle Schoolers annihalate the weaker High Schoolers from the 10th Court and below who challenged them for the balls they obtained.
Right after the first official shuffle match, which was Momoshiro Takeshi losing against High Schooler Oni Juujiro and resulting in having pain in both of his wrists, the mental coach for the U-17 Camp Saito appears. He asks all the present middle schoolers to pair up with whoever they want, leading them to believe they are to be a doubles pair.
Kawamura pairs up with his unruly friend Akutsu Jin who he not long ago persuaded to not start a fight with Oni. The Mental Coach suddenly declares all Middle Schoolers that the person that they paired with is the person they must take on in a tie-breaker match where the winner stays in the camp but the loser is sent home.
Kawamura is defeated by Akutsu 7-1 and is sent home. On the coach home, the losers argue amongst themselves about the fairness of being sent home and wanting a chance to take on those who defeated them again. The driver suddenly takes a detour being completely different from the route home which alarms the Middle Schoolers. The coach pulls up and tells the Middle Schooler's they have arrived. The Middle Schoolers step off the coach only to see the Mental Coach with the two Super Rookies Echizen Ryoma and Tooyama Kintaro waiting for them.
Coach Saito tells the Losers that if they dont want a gap to exist between those who defeated them and themselves that they should see if they can climb the cliff behind him. The Middle Schoolers brave the mountain climbing and reach the hidden mountain training camp with the drunken coach. While there, Kawamura and the other middle schoolers get involved in various dangerous tasks and most dangerously an eagle hunt.
Afterwards, the Middle School losers come back, not as losers but as the 2nd Court. It is unknown who took part in the matches, but the 8 players of the previous court were defeated and replaced. After 5 days of some quick shuffle matches, the Top 20 U-17 players of Japan arrive back at the camp from their expedition.
U-17 Camp Revolution
Kawamura and Kabaji watch from the background in one of the outer street style courts of the camp as challengers Nakagauchi Sotomichi and Miyako Shinobu get defeated and left in a bloodied state by 3rd Year High Schoolers No.12 Date Danji and No.13 Ban Rikiya and appear in front of them implying they want to challenge them. Date accepts the challenge and a match goes underway.
Unfortunately for Kawamura and Kabaji, Ban is able to handle every shot they throw at him displaying overwhelming technique as all but few shots were able to go past him. Date sends them flying countless times and leaves them in injured bloodied states with his Springtime of Danji shot. At match point for Date and Ban Kawamura uses the most powerful level of the 108th Hadoukyu which is the most powerful level of the shot against them as a serve. The serve is so powerful it stuns Ban and shatters a floodlight behind him which falls on top of him leaving Ban helpless in fear.
Luckily in the nick of time, Ban is saved by the selfless act of Kawamura and Kabaji who prevent the floodlight from crushing Ban by standing over him together. Moved by this, Date demands he and Ban hand them their badges despite overpower the Middle Schoolers completely, showing the great respect the High Schoolers have.
With this, Kawamura and Kabaji become 1st Stringers and the 12th and 13th Representatives of U-17 Japan and meet up with the new No.11-19s who were also Middle Schoolers that had just defeated 1st Stringers. The new No.s 11-19 return to the main courts and surprise the camp's members.
Genius 10 Challenge
The next day, the Top 10 take center stage and play against their Middle School challengers wit
h the majority of the camp playing as the audience. Kawamura and Kurobane are luckily able to catch Ishida Gin in the
audience as he is sent flying into the stands by Duke Homerun as he loses to Duke Watanabe in the match for the No.3 representative badge. When Oni's Match begins Kawamura goes to look for Akutsu who was supposed to play Oni.

Playing Styles and Techniques
Kawamura is an aggressive baseliner, mostly using his power to overwhelm his opponents which is a style called Power Play.
A state which occurs whenever Kawamura holds a racket. He gets pumped up, giving his shots more power and increasing his skill level. In episode 70 in the anime, he entered "Burning" holding a baseball bat while he was playing baseball.
Burning Serve (バーニングサーブ)
An extremely fast serve that Kawamura uses when he is in his "burning" state.
A very powerful maneuver that uses 120% of an arm's strength or power. Originally from Ishida Gin, copied by his brother, Tetsu Ishida of Fudomine, Kawamura began using Hadoukyū after being on its receiving end in a match between Seigaku and Fudomine. This fantasy move is based on the nonexistent principle that if given time to prepare, a player can charge the strength of his shot to give it more power. The technique is very dangerous to the arms of both the user and receiver. The move itself and its name is very similar to Street Fighter's Hadōken.
In the manga "New Prince of Tennis", Kawamura was able to use the 108th level of this technique in a doubles battle between him and his doubles partner, Munehiro Kabaji, against the 1st string high schoolers. This is due to the rigorous training he recieved in the high cliff, where all the other losers went to, after he was defeated by Akutsu Jin.
Similar to the original and one-handed Hadoukyū but with both arms. This lowers the risk of arm injuries caused by the original Hadoukyū by balancing the arm strength but reduces the power of the shot due to a smaller follow through. Additionally, using two hands severely limits the range of the shot.
Similar to the original Hadoukyū but performed while running or dashing towards the net. This strengthens the shot, because the momentum of the run or dash concentrates all the power of the body into one shot, but can be only used once or may break the wrist. This shot is first used in the match against Rokkaku in Doubles 2, where Kawamura teamed up with Takeshi Momoshiro against Hikaru Amane and Harukaze Kurobane. During his match with Ishida Gin, however, Kawamura is able to use the Dash Hadokyū multiple times in one match.
This is a form of Hadoukyū that hasn't actually been officially named by Takeshi Konomi. Kawamura has only used Final Hadoukyū once, during his match with Ishida Gin. After losing 23 points in a row and getting down 5-0 40-0, he uses this shot with the inspiration of Akutsu. "Final Hadoukyū's" true power level is unknown, but it was said by Gin himself that it was greater than his 108th style hadoukyū. When Kawamura used this shot, he injured Gin's wrist and forced him to forfeit. This form involves using the Tennis racket frame, similar to Wild Ball, and it was also thrown further away than normal serves, due to his unconsciousness.
Anime Only
Similar to the original Hadoukyū but performed while jumping for a smash. This makes the shot extremely difficult to return. Can be performed using the original or two-handed Hadoukyū. It is first and only ever seen in his match against Shūichirō Oishi.

- He and Akutsu Jin were neighbors, and became friends after joining the same karate dojo. Kawamura is also good friends with Akutsu's mother, Yūki.
- After Junior High, Kawamura plans to quit tennis and focus on becoming a sushi chef.
- Kawamura's home is located on the second floor of the building where Kawamura Sushi, the family restaurant, is located.
Other Trivia
- Kawamura's trademark quote is "Burning!", but others used often are "Great-o!", "Victory!", "Moreuze! Burning!", "Come on, baby!", "Shocking!", "God damn!", "Its show time!", "Leave it to me, Monkey!" and "Oh my God!". In the CD "Departures" bonus track, Takeshi Momoshiro even makes a comment that he always says "Moeruze! Burning!" so often that he should use a different catch phrase.
- In the TeniPuri Family chibi episodes, Kawamura is the only one of the Seigaku regulars who is not a family member. Instead, he is a friend and owner of "Burning Sushi", who delivers sushi to the family at the end of every episode.
- The fact that he gets pumped with the tennis racket is used throughout the series as a form of comic relief. During a few episodes, Ryoma Echizen is seen personally handing Kawamura's racquet to him (for his own benefit), making him faster or slower, as seen in the training they did before the confrontation with Rikkaidai.
- "Ora ora, I'm heating up, BURNING!" ("Ora ora, moeruze BURNING!")
- "Come on, baby!"
- "You're here, huh, boy? Welcome!" ("Yoku kitana, kozou? Welcome!")
- "I don't care, HEAT!" ("Kamau kou ka, HEAT-O!" [?])

Handwritten letters seem to be such a lost art these days…during the 1940's, there was a frenzy of thoughtful letter-writing between the home front and the war front. Nothing brought more joy to a soldier than a letter from home, and nothing brought more relief than a letter from a loved one on the war front. Even the most seemingly simple bit of news from family and friends was a refreshment to war-weary souls; each letter, regardless of how brief, was a precious gift, a reminder that there is no distance in love, and that no matter the distance from home, you were never forgotten and always close at heart. Letters were the main form of communication and encouraged expression and articulation of thoughts, ideas and emotions. They were tangible mementos connecting two souls, often read and reread, and saved and cherished for generations.
I enjoy taking a pen in hand and pouring my thoughts and sentiments onto the blank page, folding it carefully, tucking it in an envelope and posting it in the mail. As it's winging its way to its intended recipient, I feel the reciprocated thrill of the exchange, and eagerly watch my mailbox for the reply. Oh, the incomparable thrill of receiving a handwritten letter…
Do any of you write letters?

I don't write as many letters as I'd like to, mainly because all my friends and family are online and it's just easier to poke them on Facebook or something. But I do make it a habit to write postcards to people when I'm on vacation! It's not the same as writing a letter, but it's at least…hand-written?

Occasionally I write letters, but usually only to people who don't do email. I write to my grandma and to a woman who is a friend of the family. She has no idea what email even means (though she's only 58). I love to write letters occasionally but I'm also glad that there is a quicker way to communicate when things are more important.

My Mother wrote everyday to my Father when he was in the Army. She would have his picture on her dresser, and she would look at it as she wrote him every night. One of my all time favorite photos of my Dad was when he was in his Army uniform laying on his bed reading a book. He had my Mother's picture beside him, and a picture of his Mother and Father next to her picture. Two generations of family in one Photo! Letter writing was an artform, and really cherished during war time!

What a precious memory, Zootsuit…handwritten letters are so nostalgic, and often a romantic part of our past. Thank you for sharing this memory with us. You described it so beautifully, and it's not at all difficult to imagine the scene of a lovely young bride writing to her true love on the war front. And you are blessed to have such photos…what a treasure!

I remember writing letters and I even have some old love letters that my husband wrote to me years ago. I also have a postcard that my father sent to my mother when he was away with his ship during the war. Soldiers serving abroad now still appreciate letters!
Aw, FlorrieMay…cherish those letters ALWAYS!! I send letters to a few soldiers, some on the battlefield and a couple rehabilitating at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. We're all in need of encouragement and support, and I'm sure that those serving in the military especially need to know how much they're appreciated.

Thank you Jazzy Dame! In thinking about it, there is something that has been done each year at the holiday time which I think is very touching, and in a way I guess you could consider it as almost personally written/penned. Each year a large copier company sends a holiday card to someone in the service or who has been injured. They took the pictures that kids drew about our servicemen, then they had a list of what the kids wrote that you could put inside the card. You would pick which card you wanted, then pick the inside text you would like to appear, and you can add some personalized greeting yourself. It is not a true hand written letter, but it is a real pick me up for anyone in the service.

Honeslty, I can't remember the last time I wrote or received a handwritten letter. With everything online, email, chat and Facebook have become my means of communicating with my family and friends…I used to write letters when I was a kid…when the online community didn't rule yet. I had aunts and cousins who lived in other countries, so we kept it touch through letters…Oh, making this post reminds me of Mr. Postman!

It's certainly a lost art these days. It's gone the way of copy paper and ink wells. Sometimes I think we rush too much. If it were like it used to be back then, we would all be under a lot less stress than we are now. I know there was stress back then too but it didn't seem to be as bad as it is now.

Wow. I have driven chevy blazers for my job that includes alot of using 4wd auto tran. They have all lost the ability to engage 4wd because of the transfer cases going out for what ever reasons. Never had the neutral jump though unless like one I drove just decided to dump tranny oil all over my bosses driveway.I would like to be more help but sounds like you need a qualified 4WD MECHANIC and I say 4WD LOUDLY because most mechanics in my business with them are not truly that great at 4WD problems and fixes. Be patient and shrewd and good luck.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Allison Jackson named Lincoln Academy Student Laureate
Rockford University senior Allison Jackson of Roscoe, Ill., has been selected as Rockford University's Lincoln Academy Student Laureate for 2014, a state wide honor that recognizes an outstanding college senior from each of the four-year degree-granting institutions of higher learning in Illinois who demonstrate excellence in curricular and extracurricular activities....Read More
I chose Rockford for a number of reasons; one of the main reasons being the opportunity to study abroad.
I cannot speak highly enough about the Rockford University Spanish department. My classes were energetic, motivating and full of opportunities to develop and refine my language skills, which led me to a successful career in teaching Spanish.
I chose Rockford University because I wanted to attend a college where I would be able to experience personalized class experience and a more one-on-one relationship with professors.
I'm happy to say I successfully completed my licensure with an endorsement in PE with the help of Rockford University and am now doing what I love. The professors are supportive, and they helped make sure I stayed inspired in my career path.
I was looking for a smaller college with a community vibe. What impressed me the most was how different the campus is - the woods, the trails, the wildlife, and the close proximity to restaurants and shopping.
My professors are amazing instructors. They all seem to show a deep passion for literature and learning, and really seem to get involved in class discussions.
During my senior year at Rockford University I had the opportunity to attend Unified Professional Theatre Auditions, a huge audition looking for new talent. As a result of that, I was invited to audition and ultimately got a role for Cats.
I like RU because it is small-scaled and you actually get to know your professors. The campus is like a little community, you get to know almost all of the students.
I enjoy Rockford University because the campus community and environment are small enough in size to where you can experience and be involved in almost everything.
I like Rockford University because of the modest sized atmosphere. I receive a lot of one-on-one time with professors who care.
In addition to my Computer Science major, the knowledge I received from my minor at Rockford University in Graphic Design helped prepare me for many necessary skills in the web development field.
I love the community here at Rockford University. There is always something going on here which is a great way to easily meet people and make new friends.
As I went through some core business classes when I came to Rockford, I realized that I began to really enjoy them because of the knowledgeable and caring professors.
The thing I love most about RU is the ability I have to connect with my professors. This is really important to me because I feel like I can always come to them for help or academic advice if I need it.
I love Rockford University. Not only did I stand out as a person, but I had possibilities!
I was a transfer student, and the previous school I attended did not offer as good of financial aid packages as RU could offer me, which made my decision easy.
When I am away from the campus, I miss having my own work space and faculty guidance that Rockford University can offer students with their artwork.
The Nursing students and professors are a very close community; we work very hard together, and we really feel like a family.
I love that Biochemistry is both challenging and rewarding. It is a degree that takes a lot of hard work, but the knowledge gained is amazing.
I chose the BSMS program because of the flexibility and the reputation of Rockford University. While completing the BSMS program, I received a promotion at work. Without the BSMS program, I cannot imagine being where I am today.
Rockford University was the only school to which I applied. It was the only school I wanted to attend.
I chose to attend RU because of its close proximity to my home and because Rockford gave me the opportunity to study abroad.
I still find that I use the knowledge I gained in the Rockford University classrooms years ago in my own classrooms today.
Through Rockford University and the JiET-A program, I am an intern in the Electronic Test Equipment department at UTC Aerospace Systems.
The classes I took at Rockford University related to and could be applied to what was going on in the world, and they helped me understand how things work and why things work the way that they do in our government.
A Rock Solid Education.

Fox News "First" Featuring Leggy News Babes
Fox News Channel aired a new early early morning show on Monday that features news hotties Ainsely Earhardt and Anna Koiman.
I've posted before and it's common knowledge that the producers at Fox News seem to like to feature the hottest "news babes" out there and put them on sets that feature their legs. As you can see the set of the new show is just the two beautiful blondes perched up on high chairs that highlight their long sexy legs in heels. Most of the show was also shot in full body mode as seen here.
I tuned in this morning and apparently things have changed, The girls are now behind a desk and most of the shots were close ups- shoulders and face. :-(
I guess the show may have been too sexy for the Bible thumpers in the heartland.
*** Update ***
Well, it looks like Fox went and ruined this show. These pics are from the pilot show on Monday 3/5. On Tuesday they moved the girls behind a desk which hid their legs. On Wednesday, they shook up the cast. Now it's one babe- not one of the original 2 but still OK looking- and one dude- some talking head they dug up. The show is now just another happy talk morning show- boring as hell, and not even worth watching for the leg show any more. Nice job Fox!

Processors Intel Haswell-EP will support DDR4 and characterized TDP to 160W

Our source published some details about server processors Intel Haswell-EP, which is expected in 2014.

A sad iRony of Nokia's incomes
May 04, 2012
Back in the beginnig of 2000-s Nokias smartphones were the ones who controlled the smartphone market. Nowadays Nokia has lost its popularity and the leadership at the market.

With the cooperation with Microsoft, Nokia attempts to enter the smartphone market with Lumia Windows Phone range which is promising enough to regain Nokias pride. But Sadly it didnt bring the awaited result, for now.read more

Despite Major Buyer-Seller Differences, Programmatic Buying Widespread
More than 70 percent of publishers are turning to automated marketplaces.
The march toward programmatic buying may be further along than we thought.
More than 70 percent of the publishers surveyed in a report by Digiday and OpenX use some form of programmatic buying at the moment. The results have been pretty good for them so far—55 percent say revenues from programmatic trading are up.
Part of that jump has to do with an increase in available inventory though. Of those that are automating at least a portion of their ad sales, more than half have upped the space available to bidders in the last 12 months. The majority think inventory will continue to rise in the near future.
Whether the bottom-line success is real or just a function of volume, publishers are still hesitant about the process. Close to half of those surveyed feel that buyers have an inherent advantage in the current system, citing divergent value propositions and access to independent metrics. While buyers didn't seem to think the system was wholly unfair, they tended to admit an imbalance in their commentary.
Buyers and sellers views differed sharply on the types of content available via programmatic trading however. Fifty-seven percent of publishers say they only sell remnant inventory programmatically, while just 12 percent of buyers say they're purchasing remnant only-a significant gap between the supply and demand channels.
Other points of contention—most notably, control over CPM, maintaining direct relationships with buyers and keeping ad quality up—remain present.
The differences aren't insurmountable though. Nearly a third of those who haven't jumped on board with programmatic yet, say they will within the next year.
