Posted in: On the verge of breaking sumo's all-time record, Hakuho ponders his long-term future
It's a power trip, and what is the stimulating factor? His ethnicity. Not his size. He was not resisting. They could easily have handcuffed him while he was standing. They didn't. They felt they had to 'overpower' him or they would not have felt satisfied. He was persecuted, but I don't think the cop intended to kill him.
However, chances are he would have been treated differently if he was doing the same thing and of the same size, but white. The color of his skin decided on how he should be approached. It's like a reflex action.
He's in a predicament! Maybe out of the fire and into the frying pan scenario here.
No friends, associates whatever? Savings finished in a week? I wonder what he did to lose his job, and seemingly ostracized.
It's great that no one is using racial slurs here, and damning/condemning him.

There will be detractors and there will be detractors. So, since Blacks are killing Blacks, the cops should get in on the action and kill Blacks too? The police's actions are only exacerbating the situation.
Citizen on citizen crimes are like a bad festering sore in every society across the globe. However, when you have someone who pledges to protect and to serve, instead persecute and slay, and contributes to the statistics, that should be a cause for concern.
Then one can't help but notice that, in the US, the people who are persecuted and slain by the police are of a certain skin pigmentation. Coincidence? The horrible part about this is the frequency in which these incidents take place. The cops could easily have detained Eric Garner, when he held his hands up. Instead one officer proceeded to tackle him with a chokehold. Garner, wasn't directed to place his hands behind him....nothing.
Only a blind and deaf person would say this is not racial. However, from my observation, the incidents involving the police do not comprise of the usual racism. These types of racism are more 'power' generated.
I end by saying that the protests are not only to give the victims' family support, but an outcry for the police to stop acting like criminals. Who knows, someone who is close to one of the protesters could be next, if this type of brutality continues. Selah
Have you lived in USA as a foreigner? I am a Japanese have been living in USA since I enrolled in a Calif. Univ. So comfortable that I still live in USA
Kudos to the US on their hospitality towards you.
Ok, let's put things into perspective. Not everyone is discriminated against. Most times discrimination rear it's ugly head in the US in the form of gun toting cops, and their targets are almost always Blacks. Black men in particular. Try being a Black male in America then return and tell me how comfy you are. As a matter of fact, as a female, I do not feel discriminated against in America. On the contrary, I feel the opposite.
My beef here is mainly police profiling Black men. In a sense it's like Japanese police profiling foreigners. A few die at immigration, yes, but still appears mild compared to the US.
Posted in: Obama inadvertently galvanizes anti-immigration sentiments in Japan
Japan's discrimination towards foreigners is mild in comparison to discrimination in the US. The Japanese even discriminate among themselves. The good thing is that the vast majority will not seek to physically harm those they discriminate against. In the US most acts of discrimination are followed by death or bodily harm. So yes it would seem as if there is no discrimination to someone who hasn't actually lived here for a period of time.
Now with recent tensions and poor immigrants wanting in, immigration has constantly had a bad image in Japan. There is no way that will change soon as it will need a generational shift - maybe 30-40 years or so.
To be poor is a crime? Who are the rich immigrants who have settled in Japan? Are you one?
Did you know that most of these 'poor' immigrants give back more to the Japanese society than those foreigners who try to superficially elevate themselves, while only womanizing and having a 'good' time? A lot of these 'poor' immigrants are care-givers, construction workers etc. and are filling essential gaps in the workforce that otherwise would be a cause for national concern. Most time these immigrants are hardworking and just 'want in' , so that they can find something more lucrative than 'back home'. They are not the ones to be concerned about.
Anyway, I think the real issue here is about the careless, erroneous and misleading report made by TBS, that lead to people misinterpreting the cause of the statement made by PresObama.
This should be Obama's theme song: 'Shake It Off' (Taylor Swift).... with the dance too.

Hope it is his conscience that is beginning to eat at him. He could easily have asked to be transferred to another station if he felt he was endangering his colleagues lives. It's just a matter of time before the conspiracy is revealed.
For all those who believed Wilson was beaten to a pulp, you are right. Here are the photos of his injuries that was presented to the grand jury.
I guess the people are feeling the same rage Wilson felt when Brown "dissed" him. Wilson went berserk and murdered Brown. The people went berserk because the murderer wasn't going to answer for his crime, and took out there rage on their environment. Hope they calmed down enough to even volunteer to right their wrong.

Why not cook the rice with pumpkin or peas or a natural food? Would it be considered deviating from the culture? The kids like making onigiri. Add more nori with rice meals then.
Posted in: Osaka mayor weighs in on school lunch debate
I feel like crying when I look at this pic. Enlarge it and you will see in his background that he is really at a hospital. Then look at his face...NOT EVEN A SCRATCH!!!! Based on his statement in the grand jury report he was beat to a half stupor. Maybe I'm missing something here, as this photo was released by the St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney's office, so they must have noticed, but no comment.

FILE- This undated file photo released by the St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney's office on Monday, Nov. 24, 2014, shows Ferguson police officer **Darren Wilson during his medical examination after he fatally shot Michael Brown, ** in Ferguson.
WOW!!! Look at that shiner!! He can barely open his eyes. His face is all swollen! That thug really beat his face to a pulp.
No surprise there. This was the condition under which he was indicted. He could easily have been transferred to another station if his colleagues were in danger because of his presence at Ferguson. This is just 'soft' firing.
He murdered the youth.
Posted in: Ferguson police officer who shot Michael Brown resigns
@Frungy This isn't about Wilson, it isn't about Brown... it is about the ongoing racism and persecution of African Americans going on in the USA.
You hit the nail resoundly on the head. Another one bites the dust. At this rate Black males in the US will soon become extinct. They should be put on the endangered species list.
@John Constantine Dillon Taylor, was of mixed race. Hispanic and white. He was referred to as being white. The headlines I've read said, 'White man killed by non-white cop. The cop is not black, but is of mixed ethnicity just like Taylor. Don't know why you are spreading propaganda.
He drew his gun, which Brown had grabbed and twisted until it dug into Wilson's hip, Wilson testified. "I said: 'Get back or I'm going to shoot you,'" Wilson recalled saying.
Hulk had the gun pressed into the 6' 4 midget cop's hip and the cop never got shot. This cop who had a gun pressed into his hip told the youth to step back or he would shoot him?
Dead man tells no tale.
Posted in: Ferguson officer testified he feared for his life in confrontation with teen
@ WilliB
That is quite a grand statement.
The 'grand statement' is not exclusive to this incident. It blankets the multiple murders committed in the name of the law against black men. Even a twelve year old black male is a threat and needs to be wiped from the face of the earth. I am yet to see a white cop charged for murdering a black man. Why can they shoot, but not fatally or taser and apprehend white offenders but murder black offenders?
Have you reviewed all court cases to arrive at that? And regarding the current case, have you seen the same evidence that jury has seen? Or did you just form a judgment based on some newspaper reports?
I have an idea of what the jury saw. The prosecutor allowed the witnesses to be discredited without putting up much of a fight.There were 12 people who made up the grand jury. Are you confident that all twelve agreed to indict the cop? If just one member of the jury thought that he should be charged then there is room for doubt. Think about it, according to the man-made law, if eight said he should face charges, and four opposed he would be indicted. And he is.....
OJ it was a predominately Black Jury that let him, so you tell me
That's the difference with blacks called to duty; color doesn't mar their sense of justice.
Posted in: Grand jury decides not to indict police officer in Ferguson shooting
PM Abe, you are missing an arrow. There should have been four arrows. Even if your three arrows policy work the outcome is meaningless without the fourth arrow. The fourth arrow would be the arrow that ensures that the workers at the bottom of the economic scale feel the effects of the abundance at the top (big corporates profits). You were honest enough to say that those at the bottom should be feeling and not (and not are feeling the trickledown effect. What measures do you have in place to make that 'should' becomes a definite 'ARE'?
I hate politricks.
Posted in: Low voter turnout could erode Abe's call for fresh mandate
There is no justice for Blacks in the US. Even if the police had just walked up to the youth and shot him in the head in full view of a thousand onlookers he would still have been acquitted.The people were right about the prosecutor. As a prosecutor most of his arguments were in favor of the accused. At least they didn't say the murderer was innocent, just that the prosecutor didn't do enough to unravel what really took place. I wonder if there were nine blacks and three whites on the grand jury with the same evidence, would the decision be the same?
Posted in: Grand jury decides not to indict police officer in Ferguson shooting
The caller said the boy was pulling the gun in and out of his pants. "I don't know if it's real or not," the caller said. The boy did not make any verbal threats toward the officer or point the gun, but reached into his waistband and grabbed it after being told to raise his hands, Tomba said.
The price of innocence. Obviously this kid was playing around, but eventually played around with the wrong set of people. This was a twelve year old kid obviously thinking like a twelve year old. Little did he know, that to the cops he was a killer black thug with a gun.

Shoganai Obama. It had to be. This is the only way Hillary Clinton will be the next president of America. It was ordained and so be it. Prophesy has to be fulfilled.
You had one hand tied behind you in carrying out your duties, now both hands are tied. It's for a reason. Whatever happens to the economy and the country in the next two years time is to convince the American people that the GOP is not the answer. It is to their (GOP) own detriment that they have won, and only time will tell.
Hillary Rodham Clinton will be the next president of The United States of America in 2016.

I thought the town was the 100,000. Didn't know it was the twenty-six assembly members. The assembly members did not vote on behalf of the town. I guess the nineteen who voted 'hai' are protecting their interests/shares. The voices of the people go unheard...as usual.

@FightingViking.. Sign in a store in Tokyo : "No dangerous subjects" - better be careful what you say...;-)
One up for the Japanese. 'Subjects' can be used to refer to people. A subject is an individual who is subjected to the rule of an elite.
@ Yakimo...I understand your point, but if the sign is intended for people who speak English it is only fair that it be written in English and not Engrish. If danger is involved it may take some time for the person who is reading to understand, resulting in injury/fatality.
Nonetheless, I think that sentence is very poetic.
Today is under construction. So be careful what you put in it. As tomorrow you will have to live with it.
On a more serious note. Signs like these should help English teachers better understand problematic areas for their students. Why not give more summarization activities. Start with the long sentence ( "Please understand that, due to maintenance, the waterfall in the outer garden is not flowing today.") and ask students to summarize using four words? See if you get back the same result as here. Take the opportunity to explain the whys and the why nots. Take the positives out of the negatives. Let your students summarize other sentences. A lot of natives do not spell correctly (outside of British and American spelling) so I wouldn't bang spelling. Natives frequently confuse their/there, your/you're, whose/who's to/too, and the list goes on.
Some commenters write, "Ask a native speaker of English for help." Here they are thinking like a Westerner and not like a Japanese. Can't really expect a Japanese to act the way you think. Culture clash. From experience, there is absolutely no way that a Japanese will ask someone they see passing or someone they are familiar with, to check their grammar. If it is a school situation it is expected, but not otherwise. It would be like saying, You are better than me."
Why does Engrish happen? Because the main focus is having blonde blue eyed American teachers to gape at, while using learning English as a front. Not dissipating anytime soon. Sorry, qualified teachers who do not fit the profile.
Okay, enough for today's construction. The Best Ever Maid.
Posted in: Why does 'Engrish' happen in Japan?
Considering the present state of the English teaching industry, not even my worst enemy would I encourage to go to Japan and teach English. The whole industry is going downhill. It is just an all round money making venture for the companies. They will wrangle every penny they can from what the boards of education pay to have you. Due to its profitability there is a plethora of companies now taking on dispatch roles.
Unless you go through the JET program, there is a 90% chance you will be underpaid and can only barely survive, living from paycheck to paycheck. Cost of living keeps going up and wages/salaries are decreasing. The dispatch companies and eikaiwas will try to reassure you by telling you the most positive things, but as soon as you fall in their trap you'll see their true colors come shining through.
Some companies are very crafty and give a very low and a not so low salary range. Rest assured that when you are in their traps you will be given ridiculous reasons you get the very low end. Some only pay for actual teaching hours even though you are present at the school and performing other duties.
The boards of education and ministry ignore the deplorable conditions under which ALTs/NETs work even though they might be aware of them. They just behave like the three wise monkeys. See no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil(Western interpretation...turn a blind eye). As long as there are some English speaking individuals in the classroom they can claim English is being taught and all is well.
I could go on and on, but I'm going to reserve some for another time.
In conclusion, presently, teaching English as a Second Language is just a backpacker's job with a backpackers pay, as Mr. Noidall stated, or if it's not about the money you could go and pretend to be volunteering.

I'm sorry, but I can't find any binary symlinking stuff in autoconf2.5 postinstall, just handling of man and info pages. Did you mean another package?

BOOK REVIEW Bury Me With Barbie by Wyborn Senne
Before I even began reading Wyborn Senna's delightful book I was captured by the title and charmed by her humor on the dedication page. I was pleased to discover that this fun style is liberally laced throughout the book.

How Ethics Can Help You Land a JobBy Miriam SchulmanI've participated in lots of hiring decisions as part of my work at Santa Clara University's Markkula Center for Applied Ethics — we've conducted searches for student workers, interns and professional staff. That experience has shown me that candidates' ethics have a real impact on whether or not they get the job. How would I know about someone's ethics from reading a resume or conducting an interview? Well, here are some qualities I look for — with apologies for a little ranting — trust me, these are pet peeves worth knowing about: Respect Different generations often have different understandings of respect, but since your application will likely be reviewed by someone who, like me, is middle-aged, it's a good thing to consider the standards of my age group. You don't know me, so please don't address your cover letter, "Hi Miriam," and certainly not "Hey." More important, respect my intelligence by checking your spelling and grammar. You wouldn't believe some of the howlers I've received from people whose smart phones have made inadvertent replacements like "intimate" for "initiative." Also, respect the process we've outlined for applications. If the job listing says to send your materials via email, do that. Some students believe that showing up unannounced with resume in hand will convince me that they have initiative — I can't speak for all hiring managers, but to me, this shows a lack of consideration. Finally, respect my time by not applying for a job for which you are unqualified. I'm not even allowed to consider an applicant who does not meet the minimum requirements set out in our job postings. Responsibility Your resume may be jam-packed with all the responsibilities you have taken on in extracurricular activities or work, but if you don't have the responsibility to show up for your job interview on time — barring subway breakdowns or family funerals) — I will not hire you. It also makes me crazy when applicants haven't taken the responsibility to find out what my organization does. The job you're applying for may be technical, and you may be a master of Java and C, but an employer is still going to want you to know — and be interested in — whether you're programming for an organization that sells forklifts or one that raises money for starving children. Honesty It seems weird to have to say it, but don't lie on your resume. According to a survey by CareerBuilder.com, 49% of hiring managers reported they caught candidates doing just that. "Of these employers, 57% said they automatically dismissed the applicant." Only 6% actually hired the candidate. If you lie, I may not find out right away, but somewhere in your career, these untruths can catch up with you. Just ask Dave Edmondson, former CEO of Radio Shack, or Kenneth Lonchar, former CFO of Veritas, two examples of executives who were forced to resign when their resume fibs came to light. It stands to reason that employers are looking for hires with integrity. As much as we want employees with the skills to do the job, we want members of our work community whom we can trust. Show us, by the way you write your cover letter and resume, and the way you conduct yourself in an interview, that you are that ethical person. Miriam Schulman is assistant director of the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics at Santa Clara University. The Center's Big Q Project offers a $100 Amazon gift certificate for the best student comment on ethical issues in the everyday lives of college students.This article was originally published by USA Today College on March 5th, 2012 |

TV Use in Uniontown
To learn about viewing trends and cable TV in Uniontown, AL, examine habits of Americans at large. Half of the population watches some of their favorite shows online. Even though streamed content is on the rise, 97% of Americans still watch television the old fashioned way, on their TV, and 33% of people have four or more televisions in their home for watching these shows. Because so many people use both television and Internet, it is no surprise that 72% of Americans bundle their cable and Internet subscriptions. So what, right? Well, of your fellow 1,391 Uniontown residents, there's:
- 459 with a TV for every finger on their right hand (thumbs don't count)
- 668 who take the term 'television' show lightly (and stream instead)
- 1,349 who do just fine with a traditional TV, thank you
- 1,002 users with bundled cable subscriptions
- 1,155 lucky enough to have free evenings to watch live television.

Long Term Trend: PositiveMonday's Trade: (ASIA): 23,797.81 (- 240)UPDATE: For well over two months we have been specific in pointing to our belief that 23,800 remained an initial critical pivot point. Subsequently, the HS fell well below 23,800 and for six weeks struggled to recover. Three weeks ago, however, the Index appeared to gain footing for the first time since mid- September. As of the past two weeks, all points are bullish. Just be aware of the current formation- It could be the formation of a right shoulder of a Head and Shoulder Top. Key long term support stands at 22,000. A settlement below that point could have major LT bearish implications.

Findings from the National Faculty Study
(Page 1 of 1)
Genovis is participating in a European Commission-funded project that aims to develop luminescent conjugated polymers as a means for diagnosing and monitoring neurogenerative diseases such as Alzheimer and prion diseases. The €5 million (roughly $6.74 million) LUPAS (luminescent polymers for in vivo imaging of amyloid signatures) project aims to bridge the gap between the diagnosis and treatment of these diseases by developing novel nanoparticle-based agents for imaging amyloid plaques.
The program will exploit Genovis' FeOdot technology, which the company claims represents a new class of nanoparticles that can be used as contrast agents in more than one type of medical imaging technique. "The LUPAS project aims to combine MRT and optical measurement, where luminescent conjugated polymers, LCPs, a material normally used for electronic applications such as LEDs, will be a key component in different nanostructures," comments Sarah Fredriksson, Genovis CEO.
The LUPAS project will be coordinated by Linköping University in Sweden. Additional participants include university teams in France, Germany, and Norway and Applied Spectral Imaging in Israel.

my version of East Carolina bbq sauce. use mccormick's rub overnight, then smoke with apple or cherry, plus a little hickory 1 part apple cider vinegar 1 part ketchup 1 part water brown sugar hot sauce (we use Frank's Chili & Lime) plus some of the rub
#redbully "Why must it always be pandemonium?" - George Mueller/Nelson Van Alden "Beer. Good." - Words of House Grogdrinking: Wojtkowiak Piwo, CLB's Barleywine, 8Hearted Pale Ale, O'Rob's Dry Irish Stout, DB8PT Session Ale, Wojtkowiak Grodziskie - bottle conditioning: Otto M. Gourd Pumpkin Barleywine, Jewel Thieves Apple Wine, CLB's Barleywine 1.2
Mine is closest to Grognerd's, great on pork, awsome on chicken legs. sweet tangy and a touch of heat 1 part apple cider vinegar 1 part ketchup 1 part Louisiana hot sauce (I just use the $.99 stuff you get anywhere) 1 part brown sugar add some of the rub you used on the meat, and some ground mustard powder. heat and reduce it slightly and you're good to go.
this is what you're looking for:
I inject apple cider and water into the butt. Then I put a tray under the meat on a lower rack whole it smokes. This catches a nice juice. Decant the fat and add some of that juice at pulling. I don't like vinegar because it makes the meat too mushy. My meat is already beautifully textured when it comes off of the smoker.
At a contest we inject our pork with a mixture of Agave Nectar and White Grape Juice plus a few extra secret ingredients. The acid in the grape Joyce balances out the sweet Agave nectar. The most important thing you can do is layer your favors.

Sometimes I make an Al Pastor marinade and then water it down to use it as a sauce for pulled pork. Fresh pineapple, achiote seeds, ancho and guajillo chiles, chipotles en adobo, onion, garlic, and vinegar.

Vikings stadium future remains in doubt
A new Vikings stadium remains possible after a Senate committee delayed a construction proposal Wednesday and Gov. Mark Dayton delivered some harsh words about legislative leaders' lack of support.
Stadium supporters have lots of work to do if they are to salvage the plan this legislative session.

The old sound system relied on a single cluster of loudspeakers positioned at the scoreboard on the north end of the bowl. Apart from the sometimes surmountable, but ever daunting challenge of throwing sound long distances while still providing even coverage – which, incidentally, the old system was not managing to do – the architecture of Lambeau Field guaranteed that any system that relied on a single point source, no matter how pricey or sophisticated, would be inadequate. Specifically, a hemispherical ring of windowed skyboxes and suites tops the bowl, providing a surface that generates high-SPL, broad-bandwidth reflections that wreck intelligibility. The Packers hired Anthony James Partners (AJP) of Richmond, Virginia to design an improved sound system. With no ties to any vendor, manufacturer, or integrator, AJP provides its clients with ideal, unbiased solutions. "The biggest challenge at Lambeau was the expected environmental conditions," said Larry Lucas, director of audio engineering at AJP. "The Packers were understandably unbending about the placement of equipment. To prevent injuries from falling snow and ice (recall the stadium's nickname!), no structures of any kind could be placed above seats. So even though we were using a distributed approach, we were left with the task of covering large areas of seating using a long throw from loudspeaker positions that were much less than ideal. The Shaded Amplitude technology of Danley's Genesis Horn promised to provide that coverage without blasting the fans that were close or whispering to the fans who were far."
The distributed system is primarily comprised of sixteen enclosures placed on top of the enclosed suites, around the perimeter of the field. Each of the enclosures contains a Danley GH-60 Genesis Horn and a Danley TH-118 subwoofer. The Genesis Horn and subwoofer combination covers the majority of the seating, with the Genesis Horn Shaded Amplitude roll-off positioned such that seats both near and far amazingly receive the same SPL. Due to Lambeau's blustery weather, outdoor enclosures measuring approximately 6′ x 7′ were custom designed by Pro Media Ultrasound, the system installer for the stadium. Nineteen Danley SH-100 loudspeakers are spaced around the stadium in between outdoor speaker enclosures providing near-fill for seats below the suites that fall outside the Genesis Horn's beam.
Two additional Genesis Horns cover the south end zone, which will be converted to seats and party decks next season. Fifty-six Danley SH-Mini's provide coverage for club seating and the Legends Lounge. A new Yamaha M7 digital console gives stadium engineers the ability to recall mixes, and a BSS London-series DSP system provides all system equalization, dynamics, routing, and loudspeaker management. Despite the fact that a Genesis Horn contains eighteen drivers, due to ingenious crossover designs, the number of amplifiers required to cover the 80,000-plus seats at Lambeau was quite low. It only required five IP-5000s, nine IP-9000s, and eight IP-12000 Crown amplifiers to provide clean power with ample headroom to the Danley loudspeakers and subwoofers. Danley Sound Labs' Mike Hedden commented, "Our products produce industry leading high sensitivities and cutting-edge technologies. Other loudspeaker manufacturers would have had an amplifier count at least double ours along with much more required electrical service demands. When you compare this, and then add our lower electrical cost of actual operation, you'll see why Danley Sound Labs is one of the most "green" loudspeaker companies on the market today."
Because they have the capacity to throw long distances with appropriate SPL-by-distance performance, the Danley Genesis Horn (GH-60) and its larger sibling, the Jericho Horn (JH-90), represent alternatives to the line array. Indeed, Lucas had considered a line array as a potential solution at Lambeau Field. "However, two critical factors favored Danley's solution," he said. "First, when you tally up all the costs, a line array system is considerably more expensive than a comparable Danley Genesis or Jericho Horn. Second, the fact that the Danley boxes are true point-source devices make them a lot cleaner. For example, the Genesis Horn has noticeably greater intelligibility than comparable line arrays out there."
The Packers' fans, administration, and even players have praised the new sound system. "The improvement is not at all subtle," said Lucas. "Fans have gone out of their way to let the administration know that Lambeau's sound reinforcement system is a significant improvement. That very positive feedback has made them feel comfortable with the investment they made."
ABOUT DANLEY SOUND LABS Danley Sound Labs is the exclusive home of Tom Danley, one of the most innovative loudspeaker designers in the industry today and recognized worldwide as a pioneer for "outside the box" thinking in professional audio technology.

ALCESTER RFC held their senior presentation evening at the Kings Coughton clubhouse last Friday evening when several fun and more serious awards were handed out.
The first team Players' Player of the Year award was won by Ben Hope and the Coaches' Player of the Year honour went to Brett Allard.
Young Player of the Year was Jack Green, second team Players' Player of the Year was Steve Green and Most Improved Player was Rikki Bowers.
On Sunday the annual Alcester seven-a-side competition took place and, despite the dreadful weather which prompted many of the already registered sides to cry off, the event proved a great success.
Eight teams from the local area and further afield braved the gale force winds and torrential rain and turned up for the event, which was won for the second year running by Leamington Mavericks who defeated Old Laurentians Racing Snakes in the final.
The real stars of the show, however, were touring side Cleve RFC from the Bristol area who called into Alcester to take part in the event on their way back from their tour of Liverpool.
The Cleve side, the Flunkies, comprised of tour debutants that were only made aware of their requirement to play by their tour management as they pulled into Alcester RFC's car park!
Alcester themselves tasted rare success in their own competition by avenging a 34-7 defeat in the group stages by Cooke's Crusaders to beat them later in the tournament and win the Plate competition.
Despite their lack of preparation and alcohol-dominated diet of the previous 48 hours, Cleve claimed the Plate runners-up prize - much to their tour party's surprise - with two wins.
The Rugby Force working day takes place tomorrow (Saturday) at the club between 10am-4pm when members and friends of the club are invited to spare an hour or stay all day to spruce up the clubhouse and grounds. For more details contact Andy Flynn on 07923 436184.
The junior awards day presentation of this season's awards for all junior section age groups will take place on Sunday at the clubhouse in Kings Coughton and friends old and new are welcome to join in the celebrations.

"An Adult Fairytale"
Awesome. The gift edition with the added interview at the end is definitely worth it. One of my favorite stories of all time.
"Classic Tragedy"
Where would I be without Ethan Allen Hawley? Steinbeck creates a personality and David Aaron Baker gives it life. He's the most experienced, most wise, he finds out too late, his story describes the fall of a great household, and it ends in death. A paragon for modern tragedy.
"Better than the First"
This book is impossible to review properly. Instead I'll say that this book makes my top five along with East of Eden, David Copperfield, Kidnapped, and Name of the Wind. Nick Podehl does a nice job, but occasionally mispronounces a name.
"Simply Terrifying"
This book is impossible to review properly. Instead I'll say that this book makes my top five along with East of Eden, David Copperfield, Kidnapped, and A Wise Man's Fears. Nick Podehl does a nice job, but occasionally mispronounces a name.
"My Favorite Novel Heard Differently"
This is an amazing novel and it's my favorite. On the writing and the storytelling, I'll say it's as close to perfection as possible. I was, however, disappointed by Richard Poe. Where Poe's reading was clear and enjoyable, he missed the accent of Sam Hamilton. The difference between reading and hearing this story, is the magic of that Irish lilt. Steinbeck talks about how much he likes the sound of different dialects in Travels with Charley in search of America, and I believe the sounds of his characters speech merits our attention as his readers.
"Good Storytelling at its Best"
The Pearl examines what happens to Man once he's received his hearts desire. I think Steinbeck was a little hung up on this idea (it provides a thematic material for his novel The Winter of Our Discontent). The Pearl also shows how hard it is for an individual man to fight an institution (much like chapter five of The Grapes of Wrath). Hector Elizondo performs flawlessly, an excellent voice for Steinbecks' words. If you're familiar with Steinbeck, then there is great comparison and contrast value here.
"Best Thirty-Seven Minute Fairy Tale on Audible"
Rip Van Winkle is the tale of an unhappily married man on a journey towards idleness married with impunity. Irving's a master of language whose created a lexical texture describing time and place. The narrator, Curits Sisco, achieved the appropriate meter and emphasis; however, sometimes he rushes listed sections inappropriately or slows too long for character's voices. Rip Van Winkle easily fits into the tradition of short classical fantasy. Other stories like it include: The Facts Concerning the Recent Carnival of Crimes in Connecticut by Mark Twain, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson, Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll, or A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens.

Thursday, November 15, 2007 :::
I got a speeding ticket a couple weeks ago, and just like everyone else here at Shawshank, I am totally innocent. But that's beside the point. The point is that I had to spend two hours waiting to see a hearing officer at the government center to try and talk my way out of it. In the waiting room, sandwiched between an angry loud woman who's bottom gut was pouring over into my seat and an unbathed man who was working on coughing up a substance that sounded to consist mostly of pure solids, I could only wonder if it was worth it. But I was too self rightous to admit defeat. When the angry loud woman asked me where Hennepin Avenue was and I responded, "Downtown," she erupted with an even louder "I know Hennepin's downtown! You don't gotta tell me Hennepin's downtown! Everyone know's Hennepin's downtown!" With her insane yelps being directed at me, suddenly I was the center of everyone's attention, and for the first time I realized that everyone there looked either deathly ill or drunk and beligerent. It was like a hospital ward mixed with a holding cell. I would have found the whole experience entertaining had it been beneficial to me at all. When I finally got to the hearing officer, she told me there was nothing she could do for me except schedule a court date later in December. Then when I got back to the government center parking ramp, I discovered that it costs $21 for two hours of parking, a billing practice I will henceforth refer to as "that whole crock of shit." No wonder they don't take appointments at the hearing office, ensuring that their average wait time is well over two hours. Not that I think they should make it easy to get out of a speeding ticket, but there seems to be issues with efficiency in that government office (surprise), and I should be able to leave their waiting room without developing a skin rash or contracting the flu. All I know is that I'll be driving at a prudent ten miles per hour BELOW the speed limit from now on, thank you very much. So I guess, in that sense, I learned a bigger lesson than whatever a $142 speeding ticket could ever teach me. But I refuse to admit I learned anything at all right now, because I'm officially in full-on eff-the-police mode. And I'm attaching this picture of a two-faced pig for no reason whatsoever. ::: posted by dan at 4:56 PM :: [ link ] :: (5) comments
