City skate pavilion opens Wednesday
WINCHESTER — Area skateboarders will have something to be thankful for Wednesday.
The Winchester Parks and Recreation Department will open its skate pavilion in Jim Barnett Park, giving enthusiasts a place to skate legally in the city.
Obstacles for skating have not been installed at the Christianson Familyland site, but columns at the facility are padded, tables and benches have been removed and signs listing the pavilion's rules are installed. The opening will be held without any ceremony.
"We'll most likely have a grand opening once we get the equipment in place," said Lisa Hamaker, assistant director of the parks and recreation department. "There will not be anything Wednesday except they'll be able to skate once they get their helmet stickers."
Among the rules for the pavilion are that skaters must have a completed waiver form on file, must wear a safety helmet at all times and must have a decal on their helmet signifying that they're authorized to skate. Decals are provided when skaters turn in their waiver forms.
Minors must have their waiver forms signed by a parent or guardian. Forms are available at the War Memorial Building or can be found online at winchesterva.gov/parks/documents/skate-pavilion/Acknowledgement-and-Waiver-of-Liability.pdf. There is no processing fee.
When City Council authorized the department to pursue the skate pavilion, a goal was established to allow skating at the site by Thanksgiving. Hamaker said staff members weren't sure the department would meet that target date because corner protectors for the building had to be backordered.
"That was needed," she said, "and we were thankful to get those."
Three people have already turned in waiver forms, and Hamaker said park staffers are ready to process more.
"Hopefully we'll have a lot of people coming up, because otherwise staff will be reminding them they have to come up," she said.
Members of the Winchester Police Department will have fliers to hand out to anyone they see skating elsewhere in the city, Hamaker added.
A committee has been formed to solicit donations to be used to buy obstacles for the pavilion. Hamaker said the panel won't formally begin its campaign until the United Way fundraising drive has ended because its members don't want to compete with the agency for money.
Those interested in donating are asked to contact Brad Veach, Winchester's parks and recreation director.

Apple Advertisements: Part 2
Damon Wright's weblog gives us some information about his involvement in "Real People" Apple Ads in which he is featured. Of interest, he notes a second part of the campaign which will involve celebritiesL
On a day's notice, they shipped me to Boston to hang out with what turned out to be the second to the last round of 25 of us "Joe Regulars" who were to be shot on film by Mr. Morris himself. Apparently, the next round would be celebraties. We hung out with one, but I still can't say who. I have a picture of myself with him. His arm's around me. What a coup. Morris filmed each of us for somewhere between 45 minutes and an hour and a half. In between film role change, they took about a hundred stills of us. Keep in mind, as this is happening, and the hot lights are beating down on us, we have no idea what this is for. This reflects and confirms GNYC's report about this ad campaign back in May. Per that report, future spots may include Lou Reed, Spike Lee, Bela Fleck as well as other Grammy artists. |

I never really liked the 'real' people ads, they didn't really do it for me. I'm hoping they get some very cool celebs and industry leaders to do it, similar to their 'Think Different' campaign - the people they used in the posters are icons of today's society.

Now, the ads. I personally think that it would be neat to see celebz interact with the ordinary people. Like the DJ girl and say, a music celeb. They could both talk about the Mac, and what it has done for them. The pro could discuss the TiBook, and the consumer the iBook. They need to get Nikki Sixx and Donna Di Arico. They are huge, huge Mac users. They had a great interview with Nikki and Donna on TechTV during Comdex. It was great. Here they are interviewing them about PC stuff, and they are talking about their iPods, and Airport, etc. It was awesome.

Do you mean Mr. Sweaty Guy's site? Nah! How could I take that sort of thing personally? Apart from the needless vulgarities, I thought it was kinda funny (hmm...maybe I shouldn't admit that).
Seriously though...the worst thing that can happen to an ad campaign is that people ignore it or don't notice it at all. Based on my cursory glance at the posts on this board, it seems pretty clear that this need not be a concern for this campaign. And remember the adage about parody: it's the highest form of flattery.

Seriously, this guy has to realize that Apple could sue the crap out of him in a New York minute. Copyright violations, I mean the moron just took all of the apple site and stuck it on his server.
But I think Apple will likely handle this quietly, I mean there is no need to draw attention to the a**hole now is there. I am waiting for some cracker that has a fondness for macs to jack the guys site though. LS

BT or Moby with someone starting out making music George Lucas or Speilberg with a film student etc... dont know if thats strategically correct to do, cause its not really about "switch" But they could do Pixar, Disney, etc.

Hi there Damon, Rower_CPU and BlueDjinn. I'm glad you liked my page. I spent a good hunk of my weekend writing it up. I haven't been able to put much time into making it pretty, and there are still about ten thousand other things I'd like to say.
And thank you for the compliment Damon Personally, I cringe a little bit every time I see myself and I wish they had a better picture to use for the print ads. Oh well I learned last night that seeing yourself on TV has a way of interrupting an, um, intimate moment with your special someone I'm embarrassed to admit that, but it was funny. As for The Register, I read their review of the ad campaign and rolled my eyes. Must everyone be a critic? And especially nasty critics at that. Oh my God, real people may not be pretty! How horrible! Even worse, they may have quirks or be slightly eccentric. Damn them! I've been watching this forum for a long while, and I've posted to a few others. All the conversations about the ads are exasperating. Everyone has an opinion, which is fine, but sometimes I wonder where people get some of their crazy thoughts. Oh well, Apple likes me and that's what counts. I hope we're selling a lot of computers for them. They've treated me well and I hope they ask more of me in the future. Maybe an appearance at MacWorld? So far, my life has changed very little because of these ads. Every now and then mom or grandma or a friend will call on the phone to say they saw me. I was recognized at the Cincinnati Apple Store - there are two pictures of it on my page. The manager came out to meet me and the staff was pretty psyched. I didn't even have to show my ID when I paid for my camera That's been my only chance to be famous. I haven't been recognized anywhere else. I don't think Dayton has a big Apple following. But, who knows what the next few months will bring. Like I said on my page, I'd like to become more active in the big Apple scheme of things. I've just gotta figure out how.

A sort of reunion
Hey Aaron and Damon. Nice to see everyone again! Gee this board is turning into *the* hangout place for the Switch folks, thanks to the write up on Damon's excellent blog. A few more of us and this will be a full fledged family reunion! I think I saw Mark F's post (it was on another board), so perhaps he's next to join in the fun.
I've quite enjoyed reading Damon and Aaron's posts on their thoughts and experiences. I've thought about writing about my own experience as the token Canadian in the ensemble, but I haven't been able to find the time. But I will. Really. I too found the experience to be rather dizzying, and I can't say enough about how well I've been treated by Apple and Chiat\Day. Ironlically enough, I have yet to see my own ad playing on TV. Apparently it ran during the Stanley Cup finals but I missed it (I'm a Senators fan, so my hockey season ended a while back). Has anyone else seen it? In other news...I couldn't help but notice that Mr. Sweaty Palms' site (or whatever his name is) has been pulled down, apparently at the behest of Apple's legal department. Cool, isn't it? Someone makes fun of me and Apple shows up at their door and smacks them around! I guess it's true what they say: buying a Mac is about *alot* more than buying a computer. I sure could have used these guys back in grade school! PG |

Re: A sort of reunion
I'm not sure if I was the first to squeal to Apple Legal, i doubt it, but i tried! They really coulda gotten their ass sued off if Apple wanted though, they linked directly to several images on Apple's servers and also put Apple's copyright on the bottom. Again, welcome to the forums, and try not to get too addicted I need a fix every 15 minutes or so |

What's the deal with… Tom Odell?
Everything you need to know about the fast-rising Brit Award favourite
No, like, 'Oh well'.
Does he yodel?
Also no, but this 22-year-old alt.folkie from Chichester does write, sing and play piano with lots of chart promise.
Ah, like Chris Martin from Coldplay.
To a degree, but Odell is closer to old piano-wielding Wigan favourites Starsailor. His fragile voice often sounds ready to break just before he launches into a heady blues yowl.
Why should I let this particular watery eyed wonder into my life?
This one comes pre-approved. Odell won the Brits Critics' Choice Award this year and is one of the BBC's Sounds of 2013. He's also in favour with US megastar Taylor Swift – the two are rumoured to have been flirting at the Brits.
How do I get a piece of the action?
His debut album 'Long Way Down' is out April 15, but he's also playing a string of shows in London this year, which include Somerset House's Summer Series. Grab your tickets without Odell-ay.

Four Union Ministers who too put in their papers asked not to take any hasty step
Upset over their party's decision to bifurcate Andhra Pradesh, six Lok Sabha members and one Rajya Sabha member of the Congress from Seemandhra submitted their resignations on Friday.
The Lok Sabha members -- A. Sai Prathap, Anantha Venkatarami Reddy, Harsha Kumar, Vundavalli Arun Kumar, Lagadapati Rajagopal and S.P.Y. Reddy -- submitted their resignations to the Secretary-General of the House, T.K. Viswanathan. The Rajya Sabha member, K.V.P. Ramachandra Rao, handed over his resignation letter to Secretary-General Shamsher K. Sheriff.
Mr. Viswanathan told The Hindu that the papers were under examination by the Secretariat.
Informed sources said four Union Ministers from Seemandhra region too gave their resignation letters to party in charge of Andhra Pradesh Digvijay Singh. They were asked not to take any hasty step as the party was constituting a high-power committee, headed by trouble-shooter and Defence Minister A.K. Antony, to consider their grievances on the Telangana issue.
Hyderabad Special Correspondent adds: After Seemandhra Telugu Desam MLAs, five MPs followed suit and announced their decision to resign their posts. Apart from MPs, several MLAs too resigned taking the number to about 30.
Apparently the MPs took a cue from the action of their counterparts in the Congress and after obtaining clearance from party president N. Chandrababu Naidu.
The MPs who announced their resignation were K. Narayana, M. Venugopala Reddy and Nimmala Kistappa (all Lok Sabha) and Y. S. Chowdary and C. M. Ramesh (Rajya Sabha). Prominent among the MLAs who resigned included deputy leaders, P. Ashok Gajapathi Raju and Gali Muddukrishnama Naidu.
If it was party MLAs from Krishna, Ananatapur and Guntur who took the lead on Thursday, today it was those from Nellore, Guntur, Chittoor followed by other districts.
Another Rajya Sabha member, Nandamuri Harikrishna, released an open letter, asserting that though he was not against Telangana as it was linked to sentiment of the people, he was anguished at the way the Congress has left another region in the middle of the road uncared for. Mr. Chowdary told reporters that their resignation was mainly for fighting for the rights of the people of Seemandhra.

At WDW there is a limit of five people who can accompany the person with a GAC. They are allowed to make exceptions in certain cases, like if the family is made up of two parents and five or six young children, where it would be hard to split up. But five is the standard.The solution isn't a easy one but limiting the group size would help.
Honestly, from reading these threads it sounds like half the problems in Disneyland come from inconsistent implementation by frontline CM's (who are probably overworked and not supported by their managers) and management.

A new development is the use of autorickshaws, writes
S. Vijay Kumar
Despite intensified vehicle checks and patrolling in vulnerable areas, the menace of chain-snatching remains a challenge to the Chennai Police. Though there was a lull in the incidents during the elections, motorcycle-borne youths seem to be back in action. A new development is the use of autorickshaws to commit such offences.
Since January, dozens of chain-snatching complaints have come from across the city, while police officials say many cases do not get reported. According to police sources, victims in a majority of cases could not give any actionable information on the identity of the accused or the vehicle involved. Travelling with fake number plates, helmet-wearing youths are suspected to be operating in different areas.
On Thursday, Madhavi Seshagiri Rao (40) of Pondy Bazaar was returning home after dropping her children at school when an unidentified man in an autorickshaw snatched her 4.5-sovereign gold chain. The incident occurred at 8.45 a.m. on an interior road near her house.
According to Joint Commissioner of Police (South) A.M.C. Gunaseelan, the victim saw the autorickshaw driver doing some repair work in the vehicle. When she passed by, he drove up and snatched her chain. "Though it happened in broad daylight, there was hardly anybody on the road to come to her rescue. The accused usually choose isolated areas and target vulnerable persons. They are well-versed with the topography of the locality and the escape routes."
In another case on Thursday, S. Julia Shifa (34) of Ashtalakshmi Temple Street in Velachery was returning home from work when two persons who came in an autorickshaw snatched her 5.5-sovereign gold chain and escaped. Mr. Gunaseelan said that people should come forward to apprehend chain-snatchers and anyone else indulging in unlawful activity. "They can hand over the accused at the nearest police station and leave… it is a wrong notion that police include them as witnesses in the case. Police are considering the idea of deploying decoys in crime-prone areas," he added.

Better than the second book, but I'm done with this series. I enjoyed the historical fiction approach to the early founding of Seattle, a place dear to my family history. The writing is mediocre, though, the characters static, and the "pioneer romance," which could have boosted the story with a bit of bodice ripping, extends mostly to chaste kisses and prayers to God for the blessing of a fine spouse. Plus the main character had a baby, so her life is now predictably about nothing else. Ugh. Not
Sweetbriar Spring, I didn't enjoy as much as the first two books, but it was still intense and raw, a stunning tale based on a true story. The things these early pioneers went through! I stare at the words in shock. Sweetbriar Spring certainly shows the bravery of the frontier families. -And the stupidity... I fairly burned with anger when I read about a few men taking matters into their own hands with the convicted Indians!
But truly fascinating, this series. Sweetbriar, Sweetbriar Bride, and Sw ...more

My grandmother bought me these for my birthday several years ago. They're sweet little Christian romances about pioneers establishing the city of Seattle.
I'm not sure what happened to my copies. I'm wondering if I've left some books at my parents house. Any ideas, Mama?

Q: "Dear SBR, with so many online sportsbooks offering NBA odds, where can an average guy go to make sure he's not being ripped off but can get the best value in the market? Many thanks" -Paul from Montreal
A: Paul, great questions on a couple of fronts. First, before particular line value or bonuses are weighed, you have to make sure you're actually going to be paid your winnings. A sportsbook can dangle all the carrots in the world, but at the end of the day, when it comes time to collect you want to be certain you're getting paid. Just by asking the question shows your head is in the right place. Online sportsbooks rated a minimum of B+ and that have been in business five years or longer should be at the top of your list whether it's wagering NBA, cricket, or volleyball.
To answer the second part of your question, with respect to NBA there is a page called the NBA Betting Futures List. Here you can find the best industry sportsbooks' odds on 2015 NBA season futures, as well as a list to the NBA Prop Bet directory that assesses the line value of traditional game props. Best of luck in your journey.

SBR has presented the case to an LSbet management contact and is awaiting to hear back on the results of the complaint. LSbet player feedback is encouraged.

SBRvideo reaches into the vault for a breakdown of Super Bowl Props by poster Justin7, hosted by SBR's Peter Loshak. Topics ranged from how sharp players take advantage of Vegas; when a line is ripe for the picking; and how not to be overexposed while still betting the props board. In Super Bowl Props Betting part II Justin7 covers opening odds, line movement, and when to find value. All Super Bowl props from online sportsbooks are listed on SBR's Super Bowl Prop Bet Directory.
Noteworthy excerpts:
"Props are just free money. It's retarded how much money the sportsbooks give away on the Super Bowl, it's like Christmas in February."
"It's a funny business. There are so many different things you can bet, you're going to tie up all your money, and the question then becomes not what should I bet, but how much should I bet on everything seeing that I'm going to spend my whole bankroll and then some."
"There's two different things that make sure you don't go bust when you're betting more money than you have. The first thing is you're betting anti-correlated props. I may bet a player over 240 yards and under 260 yards - obviously you can't lose that. But in many cases, you have tons and tons of negatively correlated prop bets. The second thing you do is what's called beta calculations for each prop. The game may go over or under your projected total, and the spread differential may be very different than what you think, but for every prop you have a beta related to those two things. So if you have a high correlation toward for example team A winning, if you do well when team A wins or horrible when they lose, you have to make sure you're not too exposed in any one area."

Best RPG I've played
The Good
I love how easily you are immersed into the world of Midkemia and the lives of the characters. Gorath and Owyn are still my favourite characters from Feist's novels, years after I first played the game.
The Bad
The ending. Something bad happens to one of the characters I was very fond of.There is a major bug - if you cast Final Rest on a dead Nighthawk/Black Slayer while another character or enemy is standing upon the same tile the dead enemy is on, the unlucky soul is sucked away with the dead Nighthawk and the game becomes frozen.
The Bottom Line
I loved the game. The storybook elements, puzzles and riddles, and the characters themselves make the game well worthwhile.Buy Betrayal at Krondor

Everyone new that Harley Clifford was going to be a force on the US Pro Tour during the 2009 season, but to go out and win the crown his rookie year was one incredible accomplishment for the 15 year old from Queensland, Australia. Harley is only the 2nd rider in the history of wakeboarding to win the title his rookie year, behind Parks Bonifay. Harley rides with a very fluid and stylish approach to both the wake and rails. With the skills of a seasoned veteran and a winning personality, Harley is going to be winning events for many years to come.
