What can you plant in August or September?
I read that you can plant turnips, lettuce, radishes, peas, spinach and carrots in August to early September. Are there other vegetable I could plant for the late season?
For the late season growing, is there anything different I should do compared to planting in early part of the year?
If your zone is 9A, it's too hot for lettuce and peas now. You can plant the lettuce when it cools down. I plant English peas in December or January. I go by what the seed pkt. says for harvest length and go by your first frost date. I'm going to plant tomato seeds this week in 8b.
Generally for a 9, summer crops can go in early-mid August...early-mid September for most winter crops. Some stuff, especially with really long or really short maturity dates may play by different rules (aka, radishes or lettuces you might want to wait until late Sept/early Oct).
Depending on the intensity of your August days, you might need to provide a little shade and/or extra water in the seedling stage or until it cools off.

G-Star Jeans
G-Star Eco Friendly Denim – RAW Sustainable
With Earth Day coming up (22nd April), G-Star thought showcasing their Spring/Summer 2012 RAW Sustainable line with you would be a great idea, and I couldn't agree more! As Earth Day celebrates the planet, G-Star's line fits in perfectly because it offers sustainable fashionable denim focused pieces made with 100% organic cotton!
For Spring/Summer 2012 a 'cruise voyage sustainable' feel is expressed through the blend of naval, utility-wear influences and feminine elements. The highlights include the high-waist Navy Flare, Navy Short and Navy Pencil Skirt which you can see in the gallery below. They blend typical naval button rows at the front pockets with G-Star Elwood inspired 3D effects.
The G-Star RAW Sustainable products seek to minimize environmental impact without sacrificing style. The RAW Organic range items only use natural manufacturing processes, minimizing the need for pesticides and other pollutants. I'm glad more and more brands are doing their part in helping the planet. I think the collection is nice too, I like the hooded denim jacket with the lace tie at the neck line.
DenimBlog Picks: G-Star Spring/Summer 2012 Denim
I went to the G-Star press showroom in London just over a week ago to see the new collections. I saw the current Spring/Summer 2012 collection (in this post) and I also saw the new Autumn/Winter 2012 pieces (those will come in another post). I didn't photo the entire Spring/Summer collection because obviously it's already out, so what I did was selected a few of my favourite pieces, or pieces that I thought were quite cool and different, and spotlighted them here in this post.
My absolute favourite jeans would be the grey moto jeans, I love them! I think the wash is so pretty and the stitching and detail that has gone into them is really well done. They are beautiful! I also liked the dark blue skinnies, the dark blue denim vest/sleeveless jacket and the cropped boy style shorts. I featured two items from their Raw Organic line which are the flared jeans with the lace up tie and the light blue chambray shirt. They also had a vivid light blue denim mini skirt which I thought was different. So what do you think of these pieces?

New G-Star Store Opened In Toronto
G-Star Raw have just officially opened a new mono brand store on Queen West in Toronto, Canada! Queen West is one of the most exclusive shopping areas in Toronto. G-Star, known for its innovative and cutting edge style in the world of denim, hosted a special store opening featuring unique handcrafted denim objects with local tastemakers and Canada's top media.
Attending the official store launch was the band 'Down With Webster', MuchMusic hosts Jesse Giddings and Liz Trinnear, actors Daniel Desanto, Lee Rumohr, Samantha Munro and Melinda Shankar, as well as hockey players Jay Rosehill and Joey Crabb. Over 500 denim enthusiasts attended the opening of the store, located at 328 Queen West.
The store, which is now officially open for business, carries the men's and women's collections, as well as a wide range of accessories and footwear. This is G-Star's largest store in Canada at 3500 square feet. G-Star has expanded rapidly over the last few years, opening stores in the world's biggest metropolitan capitals from Tokyo to New York to Sydney to Los Angeles. Currently G-Star has over 6,000 points of sales in 70 countries. Isn't that amazing?!
Justin Bieber in G-Star and Selena Gomez in American Eagle
Selena Gomez and boyfriend Justin Bieber held hands after having lunch together at Panera bread. The previous day, the couple were seen having a picnic lunch together, but were snapped by the paparazzi.
Selena's style has definitely got more relaxed when she's not filming or on the Red Carpet. She wore a pair of American Eagle distressed capris with a tee shirt and scarf. Selena is definitely loyal to American Eagle, we've spotted her out quite a few times in the brand.
Just as Selena loves American Eagle, Justin loves G-Star. He wore a pair of dark wash slim fit G-Star jeans with a G-Star by Marc Newson hoodie and sneakers. I'd love to see Justin out in a pair of Diesel jeans, I feel like they'd fit his style perfectly!

Every year in March, IIE celebrates International Women's Day by sharing about the bright young participants of IIE's Center for Women's Leadership Initiatives.
IIE is excited to announce that an additional 100 girls were awarded IIE's Higher Education Readiness (HER) scholarship. These 11th grade girls (fifty each from Fitawrari and Addis Ketema schools) should be proud of their accomplishments. They were selected by an independent review panel consisting of Ethiopian leaders in the non-profit and private sectors. The panelists chose the next round of HER girls based on academic successes, financial need, and potential for leadership. After a thorough review of all the submitted applications, the review panel submitted the final list for IIE review and notification to the selected girls and schools.
This past September, 100 underserved girls in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia—50 from Addis Ketema School and 50 from Fitawrari Abayneh School—were awarded the Higher Education Readiness (HER) Scholarship. The scholarship provides the girls with financial support combined with innovative leadership and life skills training to help them complete their secondary education and equip them with the tools needed to continue on to university.
The IIE Addis Ababa office held an award ceremony at Fitawrari and Addis Ketema schools to celebrate the final selection of the Higher Education Readiness (HER) recipients. The 100 girls had successfully completed this past spring's tutoring sessions, attended and did well in the summer enrichment activities including English language training and leadership and life skills development, and scored well enough on the Ethiopian National Exam to proceed directly to the 11th grade academic track. Congratulations to all of the HER recipients! We are very proud of you and look forward to working with you over the coming two years.
For more than nine decades, the Institute of International Education has been at the forefront of international education. The Opening Minds blog is IIE's take on how this field continues to change. Here the Institute's leaders will explore international educational exchange, global student mobility, institutional partnerships, international development, and other topics and trends that are shaping higher education around the world.

We miss him terribly! I am hoping to post his photo soon. I think it is finished but I have to get my daughter's approval on the final creation since he was her kitty.

to MSO have not watched it since last month in the 30's? is it a good time to buy?
>is it a good time to buy? The stock is going up a few pennies every day this week. It's off its intraday low of about 20 and is only $15 from it's recent high of $37 and change. Seems to be in a steady uptrend, right? Why not buy 20,000 or 30,000 shares at these levels? Imagine how much you'll make when it hits $37 again tomorrow at the close.This is only my opinion. I could be wrong on this so you decide if I'm right.
You're right!
It's always a good time to buy. Puts are on sale this week.

He is the 2nd realtor that I worked with in purchasing my properties. He worked hard helping me find a property that I'll be happy with and ensuring that I was going to be paying a fair price. What stood out for me was that with my work schedule I'm never sure exactly the time I get off or able to leave to see a house but Kenny was okay with me providing his with short notice to view the properties. He did have a preferred lender that he likes to use due to the closing ratio he had with them but was willing to work with the lender I choose even though I changed it up right when we got into contract (my fault on that). But throughout the whole process he was very prompt at getting back to me and ensuring everything went as smoothly as possible! Even if it meant having his team come out to the property to meet with my inspectors and contractors. The part that stood out the most was that everyone one that assisted me from Michael James Realtor came to meet me at the house when Kenny handed me the keys. Thanks Kenny and Mayury for all your hard work! Defiantly would be reaching out to you guys when I'm ready for my next property!

Team reviews
I am grateful to have worked with Kenny through one of my biggest life decisions. Thanks to Kenny, my boyfriend and I are now homeowners! Kenny's shows great work ethnics by responding to all of my texts and questions quickly, providing us constant updates, and being with us every step of the way. He will definitely not give up on you. I highly recommend working with Kenny.
"Hard working, will show any number of places to you and makes himself available, knows his stuff, dedicated, gives his opinions and spends the time to help you understand. His relationship with the seller helped us make a preemptive offer averting a bidding war. Kenny also stayed calm through a number of borderline meltdowns by me. His assistance, Mayury is truly his better half.. great team. Redfin gave me a nice credit which helped. Couldn't have asked for more."
Working with this company and Kenny was the single most terrible experience I've had with a real estate company. Kenny represented both me and the buyer, and he just sold me down the drain. He lied to both me and the buyers on several occasions. He doesn't listen, although he agrees to everything. Kenny is an excellent salesman, he sure sold me a bill of goods. I would never recommend this man nor his firm. I am in the process of writing a letter to the DRE.
As new Homebuyers, we were looking for an agent who is not only experienced, but someone who also is really up to date with what's going on in the market, is easily accessible, honest, sincere and knows all the tricks of the trade. Kenny sure proved to be all that. He was very accommodating with our schedule and was always quick to respond to my calls, emails or texts. He was there for every Open House we wanted to attend to make sure he personally connects with the Listing Agent, which, what we believe, gave us a bit of an advantage amongst the other bidders, as the Listing Agent vividly remembered us and Kenny from the Open House. We had a multi bid scenario and we ultimately got our offer accepted. Kenny and his assistant Mayury were just wonderful in making the process as smooth as possible. Kenny has also the most high tech state of the art programs/software that allow him to do all kinds of market research and make doc signing literally appointment free... We definitely recommend Kenny to anyone looking for a savvy, well rounded Realtor!
Kenny is everything you want in your favorite real estate agent but what stood out most to me is his ability to source information on a home from the various online tools available - almost like information at his finger tips. This made sifting through homes a faster process, and made me find the right property ahead of others. Not only that, he can also do your offers faster, very responsive and all of this means no good home slips through the cracks. I will not hesitate to go back to him for my next purchase or sale. He also knows the east bay market inside out
Kenny worked with us for almost a full year, 6 offers, and finally we're closing on a house!
I agree with the other reviews here - Kenny knows his stuff, takes great care of his clients, has a huge amount of integrity, and wants to get you in the the RIGHT home. Not only is he aware of what's going on in Oakland, but in real estate across the country, special programs offered by different banks, and has a blog with good posts.
You never get the sense that Kenny's out just to make a fortune in real estate. It's clear that he very much enjoys his work, and you can't buy that kind of authenticity. I'd highly recommend him.
Kenny Truong is one of the most professional realtors ive known. It was a pleassure working with him. Kenny Truong conducted a lengthy home search on our behalf. He listened to our needs, sent us numerous listings for our review and followed up on our questions and concerns. This was our first home purchase. When we found our house, Kenny coordinated all of our home inspections and professionally represented us. He was always there for us and kept us informed. He is very knowledgeable about Real Estate and did a great job. We will use kenny in the future as well as recommending his services to others. It isn't often that you meet someone as enthusiastic about there work as Kenny Truong.
Kenny is the most responsive and available agent you'll ever meet. It could be 7am or 11pm. He's available on the phone, text, email, or gchat.
This guy knows neighborhoods street by street and any previous transactions in the area off the top of his head. He took me to over 30 homes and he must have already bought or sold a home in each surrounding area.
Most realtors are average, but when you're looking to win deals you need way better than that. Kenny is 10x more efficient, knowledgeable, passionate and hardworking than any realtor a friend or family member referred you to.
After working with a few agents earlier, I realized Kenny was a good match for my first home purchase. He listened and understood my needs and wants and always made time to show prospective homes around my schedule. I liked his positive attitude, passion and aggressiveness when needed. It was fortunate in my case that he is an expert with short-sales and REOs and professional during a complicated closing process. I would highly recommend him to family and friends and will contact him again for my future real estate needs.

John Deere 425
I'm having an issue with my John Deere 425 and oil consumption. It consumes around 1/2 quart of oil for the 2 acres I mow. Quite a bit if you ask me. I think the issue may be either the valve cover gasket or perhaps a cracked valve cover. One additional issue, when I replaced the mower blades (48" deck) with "gator blades" (seem much heavier than the standard high-lift deere blades) the mower starts fine but once the deck engages taxes the engine to such an extent it shuts down. Any ideas on either of these issues?????
I can only speak for the first. There are two reasons for oil loss--1 is faulty seals and or piston rings. This will lead to the oil making its way down to the combustion chamber and getting burned along with the fuel. --2 is loss from gaskets like the valve cover, oil pan,. etc.. If you see oil dripping down the side of the engine, its the latter, If you find oil drops under the tractor after sitting some time, its the latter. If you lose oil and you don't see signs of oil out side of your engine, its the former. If you have 2000+ hours on the motor and you are unsure of how it was maintained through the years, you are probably looking at an engine rebuild in the future. with regard to engine stalls, it can either be the engine needing tune up or your spindles are worn and cause excessive friction.
The more you tell us, the more we can tell you. Did the problem with the engine stalling happen when you started using gator blades? Or have you been using them for years and it just started? Also, oil loss is gradual. I cannot imagine you just started losing oil after the last use of your tractor. Has it been happening for some time now? Has it been getting worse and worse? Do you see blue smoke when you run the tractor? The problems you are having are easy to determine (may not be easy to fix!).

"love, love, love the way this card turned out! we've received lots of compliments on it. stop reading this and order it already!! :D"
"These cards turned out even better than we could have imagined. They were beautiful, and we received so many complements on them. Delivery was fast, and tiny prints was great to work with. THANK YOU!!!! Beautiful!!!!!"
"nice card. we upgraded to a heavier card stock, and opted for the carved edges, so it turned out beautiful. the font choices were good, but the font sizes available were too small, in my opinion, so the text we entered was difficult to read."

What might cause moisture inside walls?
We're having the exterior of our house painted, and as the painters scraped the old paint, they found that the many of the clapboards and the wood behind them is entirely rotted. They opened some holes through the rotted wood and found the insulation soaking wet.
We do not have gutters, although after our experience today with the rotted walls, we're putting "install gutters" first on our to do list. However, the painter thinks that water INSIDE the walls (the sodden insulation in particular) would not be caused by a lack of gutters. He suspects there is another problem somewhere.
The house is perfectly dry from the inside. We have a one-year-old roof (with correct flashing, ice and water shield, etc.), and the walls were definitely wet with the old roof as well - so I don't think we can blame the roof.
Can anyone think of another possible reason for moisture inside the walls? Any idea what type of contractor we should call to investigate? Do you think it's just the lack of gutters, or do you agree with the painter than there is probably another issue?
Thanks for any advice.
The lack of gutters could cause the problem. Also an opening in the siding could let a driving rain infiltrate. Are ther pipes running through the wall? Prior to the new roof being installed, perhaps water got in. without the gutters or with the older roof, water could have run back behind the facia board and inside the wall. Was the moisture barrier facing the correct direction?
If non of the above, I suspect you may have had too much insulation in the walls which would bring the dew point inside the insulation.
Is there moisture in all four walls?
Or mainly on the north side of the house?
Is the moisture barrier(if present) on the outside side of the insulation or behind the sheetrock?
And, how warm is the house kept in the winter and how cool in the summer?
We saw the problem (with the wet insulation) in two places -- one in a wall on the east side and one on the west side of the house (the roof slants towards these two sides). Both are places that we know get a lot of rain hits (one is where water falling off a porch roof hits the side of the house, the other is at a place where the house has sort of an "L" shape, so water splashes off one side of the L and hits the rotted side).
The north side of the house has very wet and slightly rotted clapboards (even the trim is rotted), but we haven't dug in enough yet to check out the insulation. The painter is planning to check the rest of the walls tomorrow, so I can hopefully give some more information then. From what I can tell, the south side of the house is comparatively fine. The paint peeled less on that side as well (although it did peel some).
There are pipes in one of the two problem walls, but not the other.
I have to admit that I don't know what the moisture barrier would look like. There's some sort of clear plastic up against the sheet rock (inside the insulation), there's also something on the outside that looks like black woven fabric with a silver paper-like surface (the silver side is towards the outside of the house).
I doubt we have too much insulation - we've done some work in other parts of the house and the insulation seemed correct for the age of the house (built in 1987), although it's a bit short of current standards.
We keep the house really cold in the winter - generally 60 degrees - and we don't have AC or central air, so the summer temperatures are about the same as outside.
No disrespect to your painter, but you should hire a home inspector, at the least, to determine your problem which sounds a lot like moisture exfiltration due to either no vapor barrier or one poorly installed.
The above can involve problems far worse than peeling paint.
Keep in mind trying to diagnose a problem over the internet is like opening a window on a hot day and air conditioning the Earth----.
Sounds like you have at least two problems. The most serious is that there is probably water getting into the insulation cavity. That problem needs to be found and corrected. Second is that if there is plastic next to the sheet rock and another barrier under the siding, the water getting in from the weather has no way to get out---cannot evaporate fast enough to dry out.
There is little use to paint anything until two thiongs happen---elimination of the water getting in problem and getting all the insulation dried out or changed. It sounds as if the siding needs replaced and even the sheathing replaced. If sheathing is replaced, the insulation can also be replaced---from the outside.
First you determine the scope and location of the problem. If it occurs where there is no overhang it isn't the drip edge.
If it occurs high as well as low it isn't splash back from the lack of gutters.
What kind of sheathing is it? OSB takes a long time to dry.
What kind of air/weather barrier? Perforated house wraps are not waterproof and others act as a vapor barrier preventing drying to the outside in a cold climate.
Are there trees and plants near the damaged area? This will eventually rot any wood structure.
Is it under windows? Windows are the most common place to leaks especially at the head and sills.
Is there a vapor retarder inside? In a warm humid climate it could prevent the wall from drying to the inside air conditioned space.

... so I'll have to do it when I get home. There is a picture of Jon at the top of the huge dune looking v small though! Jon managed to surf not only to the bottom of the dune, but onwards and into the shallow river running down the beach, getting thoroughly soaked in the process. I managed to get stuck 3/4 of the way down the dune the first time I did it and had to jump out of the way to avoid Jon who was hurtling down behind me. The second (and final) time ...
Heading North
The best part of 6 hours in our coach today to reach the most northerly stop in NZ. There are 35 in our new group which includes some Aussies and Canadians. One of the stops was in Matakohe and the next time you are passing we can recommend the Gumdiggers Cafe. By about 3pm we arrived in Paihia, Bay of Islands. Our hotel for the next two nights, is just over a small bridge to Waitangi. It is in a really pretty ...
Going up north
We were ready and waiting at 6:45 when the coach collected us to start us on our journey north to the Bay of Islands. After collecting us we called at another couple of hotels for other travellers and then went to the coach station where we changed onto the luxury coach which would carry us on our four hour journey to Paihia in the Bay of Islands. The coach driver was called Kenny and boy, could Kenny talk. Having donned his headset we had ...

Fiorentina coach Vincenzo Montella was left frustrated after their 3-3 draw with Genoa.
Alberto Aquilani struck a hat-trick from midfield for the Viola.
"I believe games need to be analysed in their entirety and we should also view other results to realise there are no easy matches in Serie A. This evening it wasn't easy on paper either!" Montella told Sky Sport Italia.
"I think we could've won if we had made more of certain incidents. I saw Facundo Roncaglia's late shot and it curved in a bizarre fashion, almost as if it had been remote-controlled to swerve wide. It was incredible! Maybe we're cursed!
"I never talk about the referees, so I'll just say mistakes can happen."

Bristol-Myers Squibb Company
) recently presented encouraging data from a late-stage study
(AMPLE: n=646), which evaluated the efficacy of the subcutaneous
formulation of its rheumatoid arthritis (RA) drug Orencia versus
Abbott Laboratories
' (
) anti-inflammatory drug Humira. The data was presented at the
European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) annual European congress
of rheumatology.
The randomized, investigator-blinded multinational head-to-head
study compared the efficacy of both the drugs in combination with
methotrexate as a first-line therapy in patients suffering from
moderate-to-severe RA. Data revealed that treatment with Orencia
was as effective as that by Humira. Effectiveness was measured by
the criteria laid down by the American College of Rheumatology -
ACR20 response at 1 year. While 64.8% patients in the Orencia arm
met the criteria, 63.4% did so in the Humira arm.
We note that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cleared
the subcutaneous formulation of Orencia last year. Only the
intravenous version was available prior to that. Even though
pleased with the positive data on Orencia, we believe that investor
focus will remain on how Bristol-Myers fares following the US loss

Landscape Ideas - PICS
I posted on the home remodel site but think my post may have been better suited for landscaping. What do you think of our landscaping so far?
- I am thinking about moving the tri color beech in the front of the two windows over to the right.
- I also plan on adding a stone edge to the front bed and add some more small shrubs.
- I would like to join the three spruce trees in the front (last picture) with a mulch flower bed and add two to three purple sandcherry in front.
- We also are planting a blue spruce and some barberry bushes to the left of the garage - we have already removed the cedar in the picture.
- I may add a japanese maple to the front left side but am not sure exactly where I will place it. Ultimately, I would like to remove the crabapple but will probably not get to it for a few years.
- I also plan to add some garden to the other side of the front walk way (towards the road and along the driveway), but again think that is a couple of years out.
I would love to here some thoughts!
I like the beech is fine where it is. You have to be careful with trees obstructing the view from windows or shading them so your room is always dark. Picture the tree at full maturity and then see if you want to move it. I like your landscaping near the house, but you do need something to add height and color there. With only evergreens it looks rather bland from the street.
You might want to lay out a bed of perennials and shrubs in the lawn to break up that big expanse of green grass. Perhaps incorporate that beech on one end and have it go in a kidney shape--or oval. Take your hose and lay it where you think you'd like it and then stand back and visualize what it would look like.
Beautiful house!!
How about the purple shrub that seems to be growing miraculously from the middle of one of those room-sized chunks of stone? Apparently without roots....
Or the flowering tree that by its shape is obviously fairly young -- yet is taller than the mature evergreens in front of it? I suspect design/shares/ideas simply stuck its top on a different trunk -- particularly in view of the suspiciously-sudden narrowing of said trunk where it meets the foliage. [The base of the trunk looks as if it was originally a double trunk: might be weak....]
Setting aside the perspective problems, none of this exactly inspires confidence in ideas/shares/design's knowledge of horticulture: cuts off a shrub's roots and expects to use it atop stone in a landscape; can't tell a young tree from a mature one.
Hm ... here's a thought: I wonder if we're meant to think the several evergreens on the left are not mature 40-footers but giant bonsai, maybe in the 6-8' range? What happens to bonsai when they're suddenly planted in lawn?

The Irish Film & Television Network have revealed that a €5 million "fast moving, Irish gangster/cage fighting film" called 'Ringsend' is due for production in Ireland this year. The story will revolve around a hardened drug dealer from Amsterdam who uses a cage fighting tournament to cover up a multi-million pound drug deal with Irish and UK criminals.
The film, which has been attached to such names as Martin Kemp (Spandau Ballet, Eastenders), Don Baker (In The Name of the Father) and Terry Chimes (former drummer with The Clash), is set in Dublin with occasional scenes in London and Amsterdam and will begin shooting in October.
As well as Kemp, Baker and Chimes, former Miss World Rosanna Davison will be making her film debut appearance. Irish Producers have indicated that they are in touch with other Irish stars and familiar faces from the U.S. may also be featured as the film is an Irish/US co-production.
The IFTN report that ninety per cent of the film budget has been raised by U.S. producers, Cinematheque International Entertainment, while Irish producer Fintan Cullen of the Entertainment Factory in Dublin will raise the remaining ten per cent from Irish and UK sources.
Section 481 of the Taxes Consolidation Act, which was brought in to encourage investment in Irish films by allowing tax relief on film projects located in Ireland, may also help the production of 'Ringsend' and will hopefully promote other such projects to come to Ireland.

Optimum Fish Oil is a natural supplement very rich in Omega-3 and essential fatty acids. Fatty acids are basic fats and oils necessary for body health.
The main source of these EPA and DHA polyunsaturated fatty acids (long-chain omega-3 fatty acids) is seafood and are found in greater proportion in blue fish.
EPA and DHA are the Omega-3 that reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases, among others. Linoleic is also an Omega-3 but it does not the same function than EPA and DHA. These essential fats cannot be obtained through other food nor can they be manufactured by the body. They are obtained through food rich in the fat naturally found in fish, such as salmon, and they are essential because they are a component of every living cell in the body, and are necessary for rebuilding existing cells and the production of new ones. Multiple studies in many universities around the world have shown that fish oil supports cardiovascular health and improve liver flexibility, as well as preventing many diseases.
- HEALTHIER HEART with Omega-3 and fatty acids.
- Long-chain fatty acids: EPA and DHA
- Easy to swallow softgels.
Directions: Take 1 to 2 softgels daily with your meals.
Made from natural products: anchovy, sardine and mackerel.
Essencial para as articulações e é uma boa fonte de gorduras.
Nunca había probado este tipo de productos hasta ahora. Se puede masticar...es como aceite en gelatina con ligero sabor a limón. Es un gran producto para aquellos que no suelen tomar omega-3 en el pescado.

"We describe the show as an upsidedown prank show," troupe founder James "Murr" Murray says, sounding far more like a contributor to the Oprah Winfrey Network than the YouTubey, reality based truTV. "The joke is on us, instead of on the public."
Prior to their Houston show and performances in Dallas and Austin spotlighting The Tenderloins' sketchcomedy strength, Murr et al. plan to film segments for at various HTown locations. "We're going to be filming all around Texas for a full week," he warns, scouting "classic Texas locations and Texas activities — things that, as New Yorkers, we know nothing about." Where will you be shooting, we ask. "It's a hidden camera show! We don't want fans showing up!" Murr says.

It's dead, Jim
It happens. But how did it happen? I mean, I used to make a couple thousand dollars a year reffing soccer, and now I spend a couple thousand a year reffing roller derby, traveling across the country. The sad thing is that I find that I'm enjoying it more; I'm getting what I enjoy out of high level games, but without the emotional baggage that comes from doing it. When I started this blog, it was because I needed some sort of emotional venting, due to what I can now safely call abuse from players, coaches and (to a much lesser extent, because their invectives never bothered me), fans. And I went public because I thought it might be helpful for players to see the other side - to see the referee as a human, dealing with doubt, fears, and the aforementioned abuse.
During my time as a soccer referee, I had to quit playing because of that abuse, but learned that I enjoyed being a referee more. But doing the games I wanted to do, and often doing games regardless of the level, carried an emotional toll where I felt I had to vent in order to be able to go to sleep and function the next day. I've always been a bit of a writer (sadly, nothing professionally), and putting things down helps me sort things through and analyze them.
What happened when I started reffing other sports is that I could still to the games I want, without the abuse. So far in five years of reffing derby I've not had to have never had to call the police, never had to have an escort to my car, and never had to wonder if I was hit intentionally.
I love soccer, I still wish I was reffing it - I may still do a few games next year if I can squeeze them in - but as sad as I am to see that go. I'm not sad to see the emotional garbage that comes from reffing soccer rain down upon me. So congratulations, soccer, you've driven out another one. Because I've realized that I can still be a referee without feeling angry at people for being assholes; for doing a job that they wouldn't dream of doing, but have no compunction about abusing those who do.
I'm a referee, just not for soccer any more. And I feel good about that.
Best regards,
The Ref
PS - to that guy in Blaine years ago in a clinic, who asked me, "Have you seen that refblog thing? I swear he's from Minnesota." You were right. You were talking to the guy who wrote it. Read More »
Background Checks for Refs
But it's been said for years, and fallen largely on deaf ears. I heard a (former?) referee today, from another sport, who also coaches call the referees, "the second opponent." Jeebus smegging smarst - I think I'm about to give up.
Anyway, back to kids. I mostly haven't done it, because the youth association has all their referees pay for background checks, every year. My opinion is that this is a scam. First, how much time does a referee spend with kids? 60-90 minutes depending on the game. They don't know the kids; unless the ref has really good memory they won't remember their names, let alone try to talk them into something dangerous; and the kids are required to be supervised by responsible adults. Those "responsible adults" (quotes because they're coaches, and I've seen far too many who don't qualify as responsible or adults) are, to be fair, also required to be vetted each year, although I'd argue that they're spending far more than just one game in close contact with the children. Further, I'd argue (but couldn't find anything other than anecdotal references, such as this) are actually independent leagues with lax rules to begin with - not professionally run leagues like the various USSF-affiliates and other sports-equivalents.
The other reason I think it's a scam is because of who we pay. Not the company running the background check, but the association. I sell services to my clients all the time (I'm an IT consultant); I make it a big deal, and mostly my clients appreciate, when I recommend a service and tell them they're not paying me for it; it means I really like the service, and I'm not just saying it to make a buck. And frankly, when I recommend something else that I do bill directly for, those same clients trust me that I'm not just selling the company line because of those past recommendations of using services that aren't billed by me. Everything I pay as a referee goes into the association; and while they say they're not making any money; I know a whole lot of people who say they're not making any money from their shipping and handling costs, but it still gets down a black ink on their profit and loss statement.
Finally, it involves credit checks, and each time that happens, your credit history gets dinged; and financially it's just not worth it given the number of games I do. It could be worse, I could live in Arizona where they're frickin' fingerprint referees! Oh course, then I wouldn't even bother to consider working youth games again like I do now. Read More »
Game canceled, so talking tournaments
So, I'm going to diverge a bit, because I'm still in the mood to write, but don't have anything soccer-related to write about right now. Well, sort of. Recertification is all done online, unless you're a higher-up grade (which I'm not, and no longer pursuing), or just want to. So I did some of my hours online, and went to a clinic that was partially on concussions (which is something roller derby's been looking into a lot lately), and partially on referee leadership on the field.
The clinic was run by a guy I know (and worked with several times - nicest guy you'll ever meet), and he talked about the process of becoming a National Candidate and eventually trying to get the Grade 4 badge (which, sadly to say, he didn't get, he had all the requirements in, but pulled a hammy on the very last run on the physical). He talked about how he had to fly all over the place to get games that qualified for the badge; and how a couple other people, who are both now Nationals, still have to do the same thing. And I realized that I'm pretty doing the exact same thing he did (and our National friends are doing), and for the same reasons. Not to toot my own horn, but I'm the roller derby equivalent of a National (MUCH smaller pond to swim in, I grant you, and the ability to be promoted is much faster than with soccer, but I also have more overall referee experience: this is my 15th (!) year holding a whistle, and the very first roller derby team of the modern era just had it's 10th anniversary, with most officials in derby never reffing anything else prior to wearing stripes). In the last two years, I've reffed in 16 different states and 22 different cities, six of which I've returned to on multiple occasions. You can say my road to a "National equivalent" was easier (and I would agree), but I'm putting in the same hours and racking up the same miles... and I don't get paid (not that what they get paid covers expenses).
I actually do a lot more tournaments now than I ever did for soccer. Tournaments, except for the big ones: State Cups (not the State Tournaments, which were held for the non-elite teams - I did that twice and it gets grouped in with the other tournaments that don't give a rip about the officiating or officials), regional tournaments, and the USA Cup. The reasons are pretty obvious: most soccer tournaments will try to schedule you to work all day, no matter what you tell them, and then try to push you after you've explained that you're only available for two games - I did this for a very good reason. When I referee, I want to do a good job - I'm in it for the quality, not the quantity (which means for the money). Since there's a referee shortage, most tournaments would rather than the "for the money" referees (or those who don't know anything better), because it's easier to schedule fewer referees who won't or can't run, than a lot of referees who give it their all for 90 or 180 minutes, and then are done. This is why I've said on more than one occasion that their failure to find referees is not my problem. Derby tournaments, on the other hand, don't give out more games than you can physically do; and are OK with availability restrictions. And this way, since I don't get paid, I can do more qualifiable games than I normally would.
And I have to admit, I like going to some because there are a few referees that I've taken a special interest in, and want to see them improve (because they want to!). Sometimes I feel like "old man referee", but it's really nice to see the "kids" do well, too. Read More »
"It's a good jog"
Wait? Seventy minutes? Yes. Both teams showed up to game-time very short (one with seven players, one with nine), and they agreed last-second, to play 35-minute halves with no prompting on my part. Eventually, both teams came to, if not regret it, kind of wish they had more time; the team with seven had five more show up by the end of the half; the other filled out their roster with an even 11.
As far as the game itself goes - not much to report other than it was a good jog for a little more than an hour; only two offside calls, no fouls, and only one where maaaaaaybe, if I really stretched things, could I have called one. Read More »
Holy Crap, a new entry! Or, first game of the season 2013.
But soccer - yes, I did it again: I registered and signed up for some games. In years by I'd be getting division 1 and 2 men's games; but today it's a division 3 women's game, which is fine. The season is already well underway, but since I had to do a lot of traveling out of state, I just wasn't in a place to do any of them. I've actually said in the past that I really felt like I should not do those higher games any more - I may have years of experience in them, but it's a long time gone, and it wouldn't do the players justice.
But what I have decided, and this applies to last few years, too, but it worth repeating (to myself at least), is that I'll try to run the games I have at the most professional, best way I can. Crab run all over the place, run to the goal line, good signals, etc.
More good news is that I've been running on a fairly regular basis (irony; it wasn't for soccer, but mostly because I needed to keep active while living in hotel rooms), so aside from, and I hate saying this but I feel I should come clean, getting a bit bored with the game, all went well. I do try to fight the boredom, but sometimes, when there's little to do (even when my "job" is watching the back-side of play when on the line), it's something I need to work at.
The game almost didn't go off - both fields in the complex were in use (one by our game), but there was a youth team that also thought they were supposed to play there. Fortunately, their opponent never showed up (our assignor said they spoke to them earlier and said they didn't have that field); maybe not telling them.
One really big gripe, though. Since it was my job to figure out what the heck was going on with the fields, I didn't participate in the check-ins; after the game started, I just dealt with the late-comers. And sure enough, one of them came with earrings in and I simply said that she could check in once she took them out; oldest rule in the league, even older than "No Pass, no play". She never said anything, just didn't go in for the first half, and then the center referee let her in. Sigh... oldest rule ever and he just made it harder for everyone else. Read More »
It needs to come from the top down
So, just a little mini-rant. I'm in the process of going through my soccer re-certification, and there's an online section of referee abuse. So far, everything on how to deal with it is good - except that the USSF still fails to realize that the issue is a top down one; while yelling and abuse is allowed at the highest levels of the game, it will not stop at the lowest. I know the USSF can't do anything about international games, but saying that professional games are "entertainment" and thus allows them to yell at referees just kills me. I saw very little shirt pulling until the 2002 World Cup, where it was allowed without repercussion; even before the cup was over, leagues that had none went to stretched fabric all over the place.
Parents are the example to their children. Professional soccer is the example to the lower levels. If the players and coaches are being paid, then they should have that added responsibility to behave properly. But no, the presentation is a "zero tolerance approach to abuse of soccer officials" in the "youth game."
Sigh. Read More »
What happened to the NFL replacement refs?
I was having a conversation with a friend's mother in the hospital (thankfully everyone seems to be doing better now - I won't go into details other than the condition was mentioned on House, and then dismissed because it didn't happen to people of xyz ancestry - so much for TV doctors), who is from Wisconsin, and asked me my opinion about the replacement referees, and the call last September (if you're unfamiliar with the situation, just Google Green Bay Packers and Replacement Refs). I actually hadn't thought about it much, because I'm not a fan of American Football (or pointyball, or handegg, or 8.5 minutes of real action over three-and-a-half hours of broadcast time - but that's mostly aimed at people who try to shove the sport down my throat when it's just not a game that interests me). But I had a couple thoughts that popped into my head, that didn't seem to be answered or talked about anywhere:
First, what is the state of referee development for the NFL? I remember lots being said about the replacement refs being from high school, or the Lingerie Football League (don't get me started on that), and so-forth. There is no minor league, or secondary division structure like in proper football (soccer in this country), or even in baseball, hockey, or basketball. The NFL uses college sports for their player development, and those refs wouldn't risk losing their plumb assignments to be scabs for the NFL. Yes, there are minor league football leagues, I've seen some videos of them, and they're nowhere near the level of play.
Second, nobody compared the replacement refs to the replacement players in 1987. I seem to recall that the replacement players were widely ridiculed. From Wikipedia:
The replacement player teams were given mock names like "Chicago Spare Bears", "San Francisco Phoney Niners", "New Orleans Saint Elsewheres", "Washington ScabSkins", and "Seattle Sea-scabs".[1] Final television revenues were down by about 20%, a smaller drop than the networks had expected.[2] The defending Super Bowl Champion New York Giants went 0–3 in replacement games, ultimately costing them a chance to make the playoffs and repeat their championship.
And this kind of goes back to my original thought: if you were a dedicated referee, who knew this was your only change to officiate at the highest level possible, would you not take that opportunity? Take out all the political bullshit of scabs, lockouts, and greedy owners/players/refs/Uncle Grover. Would you blame them? If you have one shot for the brass ring? I don't blame them, and I can't say I wouldn't do the same thing. I only have one advantage over these guys: because soccer actually has a division system, I have an idea of just how over my head I would be - I don't think any of these guys could have.
So, less than a month after a conversation on opposite sides of a hospital bed, I see this article come out, about one of those fateful referees from the Packers-Seahawks game, and what's happening to him now. It's about as sad of an article about a referee as I've ever read, and I recommend you read it. Lance Easley is list most of us in the referee avocation: for some sick reason, he loves the heck out of it; it's his passion and he filled up most of his spare time. His wife said he was happiest when officiating; "He was healthier, more vibrant."
So he reached for the ring, worked the NFL's program for the replacement officials, and made it past the pre-season cut. Then the Seahawks-Packers game. Death threats against him and his family; suspicious packages mailed to him; a security guard stationed for just him at his work for a month; the freaking President of the United States puts you down
Now he's been blackballed from college reffing, and quit officiating entirely. Maybe he'll come back. Maybe not.
He reached for a dream. The football referee equivalent of Rudy. Sadly, there's no happy ending, or even the ability to say without regret that he was there. Read More »
Some follow-ups, and some depressing thoughts
One that made me stop in my tracks was a small saga I wrote several pieces on a Mr. John Runk, who, after being ejected from a U-little game (as in U-8) and failing to leave, assaulted the referee. I'd love to believe that there's more than one John Runk who coaches in Maryland, but I'm seeing his name pop up as a coach and manager of Maryland Sports United, a soccer club.
One reference is here, another here, and a third here.
On one hand, I still feel the anger from when I first wrote those articles, and when I see that the club has (among other things) this to offer: "Most clubs today focus on a 'win at all costs' mentality, at the expense of individual player development, creativity and performance....we do not" I get a little pissed too. But on the other hand, I'm not as angry about it as I was. Read More »
Three great online resources bite the dust
The USSF saw fit to close two resources for the American referee recently:
The Week In Review was focused on MLS games, on what went right and what went wrong. Obviously there were things that were more likely to happen at a professional level, but since the Laws of the Game are the same from the international game to the sandlot-equivalent that most of us work in, it's a sad thing to see go. I remember when it was a big deal to wear the same jersey that MLS officials wore - now we don't even get the same training.
Likewise, Ask a Soccer Referee was a great place to get official USSF answers to questions from all levels, from U-little on up. Fortuantely, Jim Allen, National Instructor and retired National Assessor, still has the website up and is still taking questions. Previous answers, if you ask me, are still official, as they had the USSF approval when posted, but they no longer do no.
No idea why these two great resources have been killed off - nothing has been brought forward to replace them.
Sadly, a third resource has gone offline, the Corsham Ref, which had a mydriad of articles and unique perspectives. I can't see why is's gone offline. Read More »
USSF Recert, part one
I got some of it down yesterday, though. Did two online classes (really powerpoint presentations, albeit good ones, with voiceovers and quizzes). The first was on being an assistant - which I good before I saw the intermediate topics after. As expected, I already knew 99% of everything in it - but it was nice that it covered a lot of stuff that I ended up having to pick up from working with higher-level referees, so in that respect, it was a good class, if just below my level of working.
By the way, I really don't like the AR signal for indicating a penalty kick (holding the flag waist-high, but otherwise in the same position as if signaling a substitution request). Using it to communicate if a penalty called by the referee was inside the penalty area is all good - but, at least in my opinion, not so much when the AR is calling the foul and the restart is a penalty kick. I don't like it for two reasons: it lack's urgency and it's different philosophically than what we use for the AR's other most important job (signaling a good goal).
This is the what the instructor indicated: AR sees a penal foul in the penalty area by a defender. The AR stops, raises his flag and waggles it. So far, no changes, but now we're instructed to make that signal, and "walk briskly" (their words) toward the corner flag.
It's the "walk briskly" bit I don't like Read More »
Why little kids should be carded
I understand where it's coming from: most of the time when we deal with U-littles they don't understand much more than kick the ball into the net and don't use your hands. But the game is getting steadily more sophisticated, even at the U-little level. Some people have said that instead of issuing a caution, you should have a brief word with the coach instead. It's hard to argue with that approach, but it only goes so far. With as many issues as I've had with coaches in my career (more philosophically, but there's plenty that went beyond that, too), most of them have a pretty good idea of what they're doing, and have a good chunk of experience behind them. U-little coaches tend to not have quite so much; the reason I bring it up is because I can totally see a coach not using that quiet word, and then the next time it happens - what then? All you're left with is a card; and if it happens to be the same player, a kid that should be removed from the game, but can't (unless it's a send-off offense).
I guess where I'm going at is that, be it by card or by private word, kids can be shits (god knows I was) and should be disciplined. Coaches may have a better idea of how to effectively do that, but we can't just assume that because it's kids (and I know some people who have the same idea for adult rec games), that they're angels and shouldn't be cautions or sent off.
I wish I knew how far into the game this was, and see if there was something that precipitated that, beyond them getting crushed the game before. Below is the clip Read More »
