1st Year Tickled Pink
My camera is terrible in the sun, but either way this plant looks very promising for a somewhat 'dwarf' paniculata. I also like that the leaves are more upright vs. floopy.
Began blooming 2 weeks ago. Some are fading to pink while there are a couple shoots with more buds.
Hi Stan - Because it is a 1st Edition from Bailey Nurseries you might want to get in touch w/ them ... to find a distributor in your area. I got mine from 1 of the nurseries carrying Bailey plant intros.
Eventually HD, Lowes & other big box stores will carry this beauty.
Good luck! Â;)
Hi Merearty - This has been a real bad summer (Jul & Aug) where I am ... many blossoms of different Hs suffered either by getting scorched badly or steam-cooked - between the our nightly storms & daytime mighty sun!!!
I went back to compare pix from previous seasons to all the awful looking ones taken this year ... big, big difference. The brilliance of last year's colors are absent at this same time.
To answer your ? ... more beigey-old rose not yet quite taupey where I am.
I have (3) Quickfire in a sunny more dry spot. They turn almost a taupey color.
I have another (3) in a part sun, moist location and the flowers are a deep dusty pink.
The tickled pink is in a part sun, moist location adn the flowers are a deep dusty pink as well.
I try to post an updated pic.
Hi whaas - Thanx for posting this very lovely TP ... when was this taken? Hopefully mine under f/s will present better color next season!
We went thru some very trying Summer for our garden beauties ... all reacted (except for the well established ones) w/ less than glorious colors compared to previous seasons.
Now that the days have cooled down ... late young blooms are surging on some ... Blushing Bride is the best of them all ... a trooper among the ES clan I have!
Again thanks ... for a peek at what I can look forward to!!! ~Â;)
These pictures are awesome. I bought this Hydrangea this spring on clearance! $4!!! :) one of it's branches were broken, but still green,so i'm rooting that now too! It's just beginning to get new leaves. I'm so happy to see how beautiful these are. i added this to the plant files
and i would love it if you'd add these images, or give me permission to, with credit to you of course!
My 3rd season just recently showed up some buds ~ the last of the 14 Hpans in my piece of soil, except for the 3babies (1rooted Kyu stem & 2 babes found under Tardiva canopy - this wk showed a few). Perhaps TP was not as often watered as VS also 3rd season, budded ahead.
All Hps will put on show in a couple of weeks ~ only QF is way ahead due to our very early Spring w/ much sunny days!!!
whaas ~ did you mean relocated TP or you guys moved & took her along? I remember you have tons of Hs as well what'd you do w/ your collection? Just curious me (we're in similar zones)!!!
I left all my plants behind. That was tough but at least the new place is (was) a blank slate! Only a 4' Acer gresium made the trek to the new home.
I've already planted Bombshell (massing), Little Lime (massing), Lime Light, Quick Fire, Little Honey, Pee Wee and Alice at the new home. I have an area that I plan to mass Bobo. If I can find Ruby Slippers in a gallon size I plan to utilize that in a grouping as well. I sure like them Hydrangeas!
The lack of availability made me wonder if Tickled Pink was perhaps a non performer and that I may have gotten lucky with the one I planted.
Bump... Am researching Tickled Pink... not much around on it. Sad that all the photos in this thread have moved... :-(
WHen I read this:
"I left all my plants behind. That was tough but at least the new place is (was) a blank slate! Only a 4' Acer gresium made the trek to the new home."
I wondered if I was the author!!!! I also moved and left all my plants behind... probably 200-300.. never counted. I, too only took a 4' Acer Griseum!!! (and some perennial divisions).
Thanks for posting that. Can't wait to see mine bloom. The buds are still tight, but there's plenty of 'em.
Didn't you think it was astonishing that we both left behind huge gardens and only took a 4' Acer Griseum?!?!? Who even HAS a 4' Acer Griseum?

The pictures on this page represent the four elements used in astrology: Fire, Earth, Air, and Water. Photos of Zodiac Signs, Moon and planets on other pages are from Fotolia. The pictures of an elcipse of the Sun; and an eclipse of the Moon were done by Tina Smale of EthiX Design.
News and Events – Medical Astrology
We are between two eclipses. Firstly there was the spectacular solar eclipse on 20th March 2015 which could be seen from many places in the British Isles; and the next one is on 4th April – a total lunar elcipse. We won't be able to see this in the UK, Europe or Africa, as it will peak at 12.06 pm GMT; but will look like the picture here if it is night time where you are. Check your local radio and TV station for when and if you are likely to see it. The Sun will be in Aries opposite the Moon in Libra (with the Earth in between). The energy of this lunar eclipse is very dynamic; and it would be tempting to rush in where fools fear to tread! However, with the Moon in Libra, it can help to think rationally, and see both sides of any issue. The Vedic astrologers (based on the Hindu tradition) advise not to start anything new on an eclipse; and to wait a while (for at least a week or so) before taking action. Circumstances can change or new information can come to light. The Earth's shadow passes across the face of the Moon during a lunar eclipse. It can take about 4 hours from beginning to end; and it looks as if the Moon is going through its phases in about 4 hours.
Richard III, the King in the Car Park, was reburied between these two eclipses. He had Sun and Saturn in Libra opposite Mars in Aries. His warrior side was shown by Mars in Aries. In the north of England, he was known as Good King Richard.
In the north, his Libran side came out when tenants, having bad times with their landlords, often got a fair hearing from his courts of appeal. When he was King, he introduced an early form of legal aid and reintroduced the system of bail for those who had been arrested. A complex man, he had a tough side, shown by Sun, Saturn opposition Mars, and could be ruthless; but did he kill the Princes in the Tower, probably not?

Brown, whose Labour Party is languishing in third place in opinion polls, was forced to make a humiliating public apology to Gillian Duffy, 66, when his "bigot" remark was picked up by a microphone on Wednesday.
The prime minister said on Thursday that he was determined to focus on economic matters and will hope that a good performance in the debate can help turn his fortunes around.
Alan Johnson, a senior Labour minister, said that Brown would be "pulling out all the stops" in the third and final televised debate.
Economic woes
The issue of Britain's spiralling public debt and how best to bring it under control has been a key issue in the election campaign, which comes as the UK shows signs of a feeble recovery from recession.
Cameron's Conservative party has argued for deep cuts to public spending to reduce the deficit, but Labour says that the approach could plunge the country back into recession, and advocates a less pronounced spending slowdown.The US-style leaders' debates have proven hugely influential in the campaign so far. The Liberal Democrats, traditionally Britain's third party, have surged in opinion polls following strong performances from Clegg in the first two debates.
All three leaders will be anxious not to slip-up in the debate, but face a difficult task as they attempt to discuss the extent of the spending cuts without scaring off voters already feeling financially bruised by the recession.
Poisoned chalice
Experts say that whoever ends up forming the next government will need to implement serious austerity measures that will be unpopular with voters.
David Hale, a US economist, said that Mervyn King, the governor of the Bank of England, had told him the election would prove a poisoned chalice for the eventual winners.
"Whoever wins this election will be out of power for a whole generation because of how tough the fiscal austerity will have to be," he said the governor had told him.
With just a week left in the race for Downing Street, polls suggest the country is headed for a hung parliament, where no clear winner emerges.

Hip, comfy office chairs
I got 2 of these for a home office for me and my husband. They look great with our vintage furniture and they are comfortable. One thing I will mention is that when I picked up the shipment at the UPS facility (which I had them hold because I was out of town), the box on one chair was badly damaged. UPS was very helpful about it and recommended I contact the shipper if there were any issues, but there was enough padding that the chair itself was in perfect shape.Read More
Really cool looking chair!
So I ended up putting this in my home office instead of using it in my "at work" office. It's very comfortable, but I realized that for all day with not a lot of up & down, I needed more back support. So at work I'm back to a more traditional style.....but I do love this chair too. It's perfect for tighter areas, not having the arms to bang on desk edges, etc. It does fit under the desk nicely when not being used. Oh, and like others commented, it's super quick and easy to assemble. Fun chair!Read More
Stylish and Comfortable Desk Chair
I purchased this chair to go with a black/silver corner desk in my college-student son's bedroom. It looks great and he reports it as being extremely comfortable. Love the nubby fabric and the fact that the "arms" (curved portion) are low enough that it can be pushed flush to the desk when not in use. Also, since the back is not super high it doesn't make it the center of attention in the room. Assembly took 5 minutes (the hardest past was opening the box) - you just need to place the swivel section on the chair post and you are done. It offers good lower back support, the adjustable and rolling/swivel features are nice. All in all, no complaints and I'd recommend it without reservation!Read More
Well, spin me around and call me "Happy"
I am a jewelry maker and I seem to spend all day twisting and turning and getting up and sitting back down. Since I also have lupus, I decided to search for a solution and this chair is IT! I've had this for a couple of months now and it gets more comfortable all the time. It was easy to put together and so sturdy! I love it so much that I just bought a second one to use in the bedroom as a vanity chair.Read More
Questions & Answers
Hello, hojth. The seat height goes from 18 inches to 21.5 inches high. Thank you for shopping with us!
I have a question for someone who has puchased this chair, not from customer service. Obviously hoping the chair is comfortable, I have a smaller frame build, but mostly I would like to know if the chair feels sweaty after hours of use, and if the material gets smelly.

Fact Sheet on Rocking Chairs
Few furniture items are as rambunctious and yet comforting as rocking chairs. Whether related to folks rocking on their porches on outdoor rocking chairs with a cup of coffee or youngsters rocking back and forth for the thrill, rocking chairs are enjoyable for people of every age. In the grand scheme of things, rocking chairs are a fairly modern invention. In a short period of time, rocking chairs have become a fixture in living rooms, lounges, patios and more. Still, here are a few things you might not know about rocking chairs.
Folding Chairs vs Plastic Chairs
Even though folding chairs and plastic chairs seem identical, there are actually some very important and subtle differences. Some are better suited for permanent seating and others are only necessary when you need some quick seating. Folding chairs may seem to be an easy seating solution, but are they better than plastic chairs and vice versa? Below is a listing of attributes for folding chairs and plastic chairs.
Types of Ergonomic Chairs
If you spend hours at a desk every day, an ergonomic chair can make a big difference in your comfort and, therefore, your productivity.

How to Make Chair Slipcovers Fit
If your furniture is looking worn and outdated, why not update it with a stylish chair slipcover? Chair slipcovers are an inexpensive way to revive the look of old furniture in just a few minutes. Whether you need to update your dining chairs or a living room chair, you'll want your new chair slipcovers to fit properly. Here's how to get a snug, stylish fit.
How to Select Seat Covers for Dining Chairs
If you are updating your dining room and your home decor, dining chair slipcovers are a low-cost solution and offer many options. Before you purchase a new set of chair slipcovers, however, there are a few considerations to keep in mind. Chair style, chair size and fabric requirements all play a part in selecting dining chair slipcovers.
Features of an Office Chair
When you sit at work all day, your office chair can make all the difference. An uncomfortable or improperly adjusted office chair can lead to aches and pains. Choosing the right office chair for you can, however, be difficult with so many options available. The following list of office chair features can help you decide which features you'd like your chair to have.
Essential Accessories for Midcentury Modern Homes
Midcentury modern refers to the time period between 1930 and 1965 when designers and architects began focusing on simple yet creative design. It was during this period that famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright experimented with organic architecture, building some of his most well-known homes and using scenery to inspire innovative designs. Some of the most recognizable furniture was also designed during this time period. From the Eames lounge chair to the slender tulip chair, the midcentury movement produced pieces that are still staples in modern homes. To get the midcentury look in your own home, use simple pieces of furniture combined with these essential decorative accessories.
How to Buy Accent Chairs
Adding fashionable and decorative accent chairs completes the overall design of any room. An accent chair's practical purpose serves mainly as extra seating, but these chairs are also considered valuable for their decorative appearance. Accent chairs come in many different designs and colors, so no matter your fashion preference, you're sure to find the perfect chair for any room. A small room may look best with only one accent chair, while a large room may accommodate two or even three or more with ease. Refer to this article to learn how to buy accent chairs.
How to Pick an Office Chair to Reduce Back Pain
Most office workers sit at their desks all day in an office chair. Your office chair's level of comfort has the power to make your day fly by or drag on and on. Back pain caused by office chairs can be a major source of discomfort if you don't have the right kind of chair. While there's no one-chair-cures-all solution, it is possible to find an office chair that will help to ease your aching back. Look below to learn how to pick an office chair to reduce back pain.
How to Choose Kitchen Seat Covers
Kitchen chair seat covers add comfort and style to any dining set. Whether you have wooden dining chairs that you would like to make a little more comfortable or you are looking to update your decor, kitchen chair seat cushions offer many options. Kitchen chair pads can even protect your dining chairs from scratches, scuffs and stains. When choosing chair pads for your kitchen chairs, you will consider fabric type, color and design, style and price. In addition, not all seat cushions are equal; some are reversible, while others offer additional non-slip security.
How to Compare High Chairs
High chairs come in many varieties, including traditional wooden high chairs, adjustable plastic high chairs and baby chairs that attach directly to your kitchen table. In addition to the many types of baby high chairs, booster seats are also available. Booster seats are placed on an adult-sized chair and are perfect for toddlers and older children. When comparing baby high chairs and booster chairs, it's important to put safety first. Choosing the features that will make your life easier and selecting a baby chair design that suits your dining room or kitchen is also important. Let us help you compare baby feeding furniture for your lifestyle.
How to Choose a Hammock Chair
It's easy to enjoy your backyard in a relaxing hammock chair, also known as a hanging chair. Just like traditional hammocks and swings, a hammock chair cradles and hugs the body when you sit in it. Compared to a hammock, however, a hammock chair requires far less space and, therefore, fits in a larger number of places. They're especially nice to have on front porches or in backyards with lots of trees. These hanging chairs are also comfortable alternatives to solid chairs and can be hung in most of the places that solid chairs are placed. Choosing a hammock chair is pretty straightforward, but it is important to keep a few details in mind so you can choose the perfect hammock chair for your space and style.
Plastic Chairs vs Wood Chairs
Whether you're looking for dining chairs, kids' chairs, bar stools, lawn furniture or office chairs, both plastic and wood designs are available. Are you looking for bright colors, smooth curves or ornate styles? Each material has its benefits, so you can select the chairs that are the perfect furniture for your home.
Tips on Buying Outdoor Rocking Chairs
Relax outside after a long day with comfortable outdoor rocking chairs. Whether you want the classic elegance of wooden rocking chairs or a vintage vibe with wicker rocking chairs, the following suggestions will help you find the perfect patio furniture for your home. Read on for tips on buying outdoor rocking chairs.
Popular Trends in High Chairs
Once your baby starts eating solid foods, high chairs become one of the most important pieces of baby gear in your home. Having your baby sit up in high chairs to eat solid foods is easier for parent and baby, and can even reduce the risk of choking. Once you've decided to buy a high chair, you need to decide on the style of high chair to buy. With a large variety of baby high chairs on the market, from infant high chairs to booster seats, you'll want to find a chair that suits your kitchen and eating habits and that complements your sense of style. The following tips will guide you through popular trends in high chairs so you can find one that suits your taste and your baby's.
How to Buy a Rocking Chair
It's no surprise that the classic rocking chair has been around for centuries. In 18th-century North America, wooden rocking chairs were primarily used in gardens. Since that time, the design and use of rocking chairs have grown and advanced to become an even more comfortable piece of furniture. Today they are used as relaxation and therapeutic devices and as nursery room accessories. When you are shopping for a rocking chair, knowing how and where the chair will be used will help narrow your choices. This guide will help you figure out how to buy a rocking chair.
Tips on Selecting a Computer Chair
Look and brand name are important, but when selecting a computer chair, or any office chair or desk chair, appearance should not be your first priority; the most important aspects to consider when choosing an office chair are comfort and durability. If you have an office job or spend long periods of time at your computer each day, then it's important to have proper computer chair to ensure a productive work session. Take a look below for some tips on selecting a computer chair.
How to Choose a Desk Chair
Desk chairs are available in many shapes, sizes and colors. A good office chair helps prevent back, neck and even leg pain while you're sitting. Some desk chairs are made specifically for existing health problems. Other desk chairs focus on adjustability and customized comfort options. Choosing an office chair requires you to assess a few things about your lifestyle and environment. Look below to learn how to choose a desk chair.
5 Uses for Stacking Chairs
When you want seating that's both compact and functional, stacking chairs are a good solution. Stackable chairs don't have moving joints, making them extra sturdy. You can unstack them quickly for an outdoor party or for entertaining guests and then stack them up and tuck them away in a garage or corner of the home just as quickly. Whether you're looking for a set of durable patio chairs for the summer or comely chairs to use in the living room year-round, stackable chairs may be what you're looking for. Keep reading to find out about five different uses for stacking chairs that you could implement around your home.

i was searching for a while, but i guess there's no question where i can really find the answer to my problem.
I'm working on a text based RPG game in java and my map is splitted in several areas, saved in a database, because it's a too large amount of data to store it in the memory. There's always one area loaded which contains * fields. Each field can contain 0..* NPCs, Items, Props, ...
Now my problem is, that every time the player walks onto a field, all NPCs on this field (and maybe on its neighbours) should be visible, which makes it senceful to save the NPC references in the fields. On the other hand, NPCs should be able to move around quite free, what would be easier, if the NPCs would have references about on which field they are at the moment.
I read a lot about circular dependencies now and I'm pretty sure that's the ugliest way to solve this problem. What I'm thinking of at the moment is to store references for NPCs in each area and references for the fields in the NPCs. That would be a middle way and the only big issue would be to move NPCs from one to another area, but at least that doesn't happen that often.
Now what I'm asking for is some kind of pattern to solve this problem or simply a good idea that leads me into the right direction. I'd be glad if anyone could help me.
Thank you, Christian

Deviled-Egg Spread
Katie Lee deconstructs the retro deviled-egg by blending hard-boiled eggs with mustard and mayonnaise so it's more like an egg salad that she can spread on toasts. "Simplicity is key," she says. "To me, it's more about tasting the egg than anything else."

Ever felt you really wanted to let loose? And – even better – let the kids yet looser while you bask on a sun-soaked terrace in a suntrap valley, sipping a cocktail from the on-site bar? Why, we can almost hear the ice cubes clinking as we type.
Don't get uptight at the thought of Cornwall being crowded in peak season: award-winning and family-friendly Calloose Caravan Park is over eight and a half acres of countryside at Hayles near St Ives, and is designed for those who want to get away from the hordes. And dogs: the park is dog-friendly with dog walking fields on site. Woof.
The park is teeming with things to do: freewheeling sprogs are free to do what they want any old time, with a kids' paddling pool, adventure playground and games room with three pool tables, proper sized table tennis tables (for essential tournaments), crazy golf, driving and shooting games, and gift machines (perhaps helpful to bribe/console runners up at table tennis).
Naturally the grown-ups are smartly catered for too: as well as the spacious sunbathing terrace, non-kids have a bar, restaurant, takeaway and shop for the essentials, a tennis court, and – although the youngsters won't be interested – a launderette, recycling point opposite the shop and chemical waste points at each toilet block.
Pitches on the park are large, terraced and individually marked/numbered to avoid overcrowding even in the height of summer, with seven areas for touring caravans and tents, and tarmac roads for easy access. Light travellers can book into a lodge or holiday home with fully-equipped kitchen and a TV even the sprogs might approve of, with 40 – 46 inch Freeview and DVD.
The Calloose team prides itself on its customer service and attention to detail, and the entire park is also carefully landscaped to welcome local wildlife and flowers – we think even the most Xbox-gripped youngster might be persuaded to let loose…

Students of Atwool Schools Lagos have been told that the United Nations (UN) works for them and other peoples of the world. 'The UN works to improve living conditions of poor people, to conquer hunger, disease and illiteracy and to encourage respect for each other's rights and freedoms', the National Information Officer of the United Nations Information Centre (UNIC) Lagos, Oluseyi Soremekun has told the students.
Making a presentation on 'UN for School children', Soremekun explained to the students, who were on excursion to the Centre, that through its specialised agencies, the UN deals with all kinds of issues, ranging from keeping the peace, fighting poverty to caring for our planet and making sure everyone is safe.
He enjoined the students to be obedient and thankful to their parents for giving them education to brighten and secure their future. 'Many school-age children', he continued, 'were without education and on the streets as they had to work to support their parents.' The National Information Officer reminded the students that the UN condemns child labour and advocates for the right to education.
Speaking further on tolerance and rights of every child, Soremekun observed, 'When children are born, they are free and each should be treated in the same way. They have reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a friendly manner.'
He added that every child has the right to a name and a nationality; Protection from violence; Education and Freedom of thought.
As the United Nations Information Centre (UNIC) Lagos continued its educational outreach activities, the 70th anniversary of the United Nations (UN) tagged 'UN@70' has remained the dominant point of discussion with students in both Primary and Secondary schools in Nigeria.
Interacting with the students of Intesida Schools, Alagbado Lagos, during an outreach session in the school, the National Information Officer of UNIC Lagos, Oluseyi Soremekun, explained that the UN was created 'to save succeeding generations from war, protect human rights, establish conditions for justice, help stabilize international relations, give peace a more secure foundation, help the less developed countries, promote social progress and better standards of life.'
Soremekun stated that the UN 'provides food to 90 million people in 80 countries; vaccinates 58 per cent of the world's children, saving 3 million lives a year; assists over 38.7 million refugees and people fleeing war, famine or persecution; works with 193 countries to combat climate change and make development sustainable as well as keeps peace with 120,000 peacekeepers in 16 operations on 4 continents.
He added that the UN also fights poverty, helping improve the health and well-being of 420 million rural poor; and promotes maternal health, saving the lives of 39 million women a year.
Answering a question on why the UN leaves out men and prioritizes women and children during conflicts and crises, the National Information Officer explained that in a situation of conflicts and crises, women and children were the most vulnerable and always the victims while most conflicts were led and initiated by men.
Receiving some UN publications from the National Information Officer, the Proprietress of the school, Mrs Atinuke Bankole, acknowledged that the briefing session was very educational, informative and beneficial to the students and teachers in attendance.
In 2014, the United Nations was the guest honour at the 50th Cowra Festival of Understanding. In keeping with tradition, UNIC Canberra visited Cowra to officially hand over the ceremonial baton to this year's guest of honour, the Republic of Korea. In his remarks at the hand-over, UNIC Director, Christopher Woodthorpe, spoke of the challenges and opportunities the Unite Nations faces as it celebrates its 70th Anniversary. In recalling the first three words of the UN Charter, "We the Peoples", he congratulated the Cowra community on its 51st holding of the Festival, calling it; "a clear example of the power of people striving to make this a better world for all". The Festival was declared open with the ringing of the International Peace Bell.
How individuals can make a difference was also the theme of the presentation to 130 students at St. Raphael's high school. While learning about the broad work of the Organization and how its different agencies play a role in all our lives, the students were asked to think about what they can do to improve the world they live in, and especially what they can do to address hunger and food waste.
On 26 March, Gazi University a Model United Nations (MUN) conference was organized with the participation of 350 students from 25 different countries.
UNIC Ankara's Information Officer delivered the key note speech at the opening ceremony and urged the students to support the United Nation's post-2015 sustainable development agenda.
He added that the MUN meeting titled "Diplomatic Diversity: Building Bridges from Near West to Far East" was a very timely event as this year the United Nations marks its 70th anniversary and the international community is set to establish the post-2015 sustainable development agenda that will cover the period until 2030.
The Information Officer added that the world needed to hear more young voices defending the Earth and the "Future We Want".
"The future we want is possible only if we collectively mobilize both the political will and the necessary resources to strengthen our nations and the international system. This is the main way to bridge the gap between West and East, North and South, and, we should not forget that we need a stronger UN for a better World" he said as he ended his speech.
UNIC Ankara is in close cooperation with the university students to get their support for the UN work in Turkey and its global priorities.
UNIC also works together with MUN clubs belonging to universities and high schools, including international relations university clubs on a regular basis.

Typically set in a more rural setting, Rallycross shifted gears and hit the streets of downtown Los Angeles for Summer X Games 2012. Sixteen of the worlds best rally racers hit the rally course built around Staples center and running on Pico and Figueroa to earn X Games gold.
The rally event started out rough, as Toomas Heikkinen crashed during practice on Friday as he shorted the jump and crashed hard into the other side.
Get the Flash Player to see this player.
X Games officials then removed the large gap and turned the jump into a tabletop. Yet more drama unfolded yesterday during practice when Marcus Gronholm has a horrible crash during practice when he overshot the jump completely, crashing into a pole and requiring the Jaws of Life to pull him from his racecar. It left a number of racers unhappy and considering protest. In the end, X Games officials eased the minds of racers and things went ahead as scheduled.
There were sixteen racers vying to make the 10-car final field. After the first four rounds were run and the last-chance-qualifiers (LCQ), all the racers were set and ready to tackle the tight course. An accident required a restart before the first full lap was completed, and once they got up and running again it was Sebastian Loeb who jumped out to the early lead. He held off challengers to take the win.
The X Games was a good experience, the track was good and I was excited to race at the X Games and win this competition, Loeb said. The most difficult point was that first corner because you lose everything if someone hits you.
Finishing in second place was Ken Block, who had some stiff competition from X Games veteran Brian Deegan. In the end, Block earned the silver and Deegan the final podium spot with the bronze.

Over the past year, specialists in sales success have recognized sales traits (and subsequent skills) that predictably deliver results. Simply put, experts, consultants, and closers reliably produce superior outcomes in sales. Experts know their products cold; consultants recognize the right fit for each product and circumstance; and, closers ensure that accounts are opened and loans are closed. Hire and train to this skill set and you will witness surplus sales at your credit union.

I've heard it; perhaps you've heard it; maybe you've whispered it – "My Board of Directors has a mind of its own." So, why not capture the mind of your Board – through mind mapping – and develop strategies and tactics that allow your management team to deliver the class of results your Board believes is appropriate for your credit union?

Town Square
Yet another developer taking the low road
Original post made by Gern Blanston, Menlo Park: Linfield Oaks, on Oct 30, 2006
Web Link
Item G2 stands out as yet another illustration of how tight developers have become with the current council majority. In his correspondence to the council, James Pollock requests an immediate appeal of any Planning Commission decision regarding a conditional use permit for his medical office project at 321 Middlefield, stating:
"We believe it makes sense for the Council to consider the appeal as to 321 Middlefield at or before the time it considers the project at 75 Willow Road (already scheduled for November 14th) and also before the Council terms expire and a new Council is seated that will have no background as a group with respect to our project."
Now matter how "procedural" Mr. Pollock might claim this maneuver to be, it clearly demonstrates how fearful he is of foisting this project, which has as many unmitigable traffic impacts as an interstate, on a Council that lacks his favorite toadies (Duboc, Jellins, and Winkler). It may even hint at Mr. Pollock's notion of how vulnerable Duboc and Winkler have become in the upcoming City Council elections.

McGrady to work out with Clippers
LAS VEGAS -- Free agent forward Tracy McGrady has scheduled a workout with the Los Angeles Clippers next week.
"We've said from the beginning we'd explore every option to make this team as competitive as possible," Clippers general manager Neil Olshey said Thursday night after the team's summer league game in Las Vegas.
"From a due diligence standpoint, if Tracy McGrady wants to come work out for you, for the price of a plane ticket and a dinner, how do you not bring him in?"
For more coverage of the complete Los Angeles sports scene, visit ESPNLA.com. »
Olshey has known McGrady, 31, since the seven-time All-Star and two-time NBA scoring champion was in high school and Olshey worked for agent Arn Tellem.
Despite drafting Al-Farouq Aminu eighth overall last month and signing free agent Ryan Gomes, the Clippers still have a noticeable hole in their starting lineup at small forward.
"Tracy and I have a good relationship," Olshey said. "We've known each other for a long time. He and Baron [Davis] have a good relationship. We obviously have a need for playmaking and scoring on the wings.
"You're talking about one of the greatest offensive talents in our game, and if Tracy is motivated and he's right, and he wants to be with us ... how could you not bring him in and take a look?"
McGrady has played 65 games over the past three seasons as back, knee and shoulder injuries consistently hampered his play. He hasn't shot above 40 percent from the field since the 2007-08 season.
He was traded from the Rockets to the New York Knicks in February, but averaged just 9.4 points and 3.7 rebounds in a little over 26 minutes a game.
As the Knicks season ended in April, McGrady told reporters in New York that he might retire if he's unable to regain his form over the summer and resurrect his career.
"If it don't happen this summer, I'll ride off into the sunset," he said before sitting out the Knicks season finale. "If I could go through another offseason of working my [butt] off, and I don't feel I'm getting any better, I can't see myself coming back playing the way I'm playing right now. I just don't see it happening."
Olshey said he's been told that McGrady has been training hard in Houston and Orlando this summer and initial reports about his condition sound promising.
"That's why we're brining him next week for a workout," Olshey said. "From a due diligence standpoint, how could you not take a look?"
