2012 Alpine SufferfestRe: 2012 Alpine Sufferfest
come down with the motorbike georgey, you can pass chucky 100 times whilst doing wheelies and making lots of noise
Re: 2012 Alpine Sufferfest
On a Triumph? Good pain killers are they Don? "scaffolders, where learning to walk upright is in the training manual"

Re: 2012 Alpine Sufferfest
George likes company when he goes out on his motorbike.... FPR Ragamuffin
Re: 2012 Alpine Sufferfest
I'm hanging on to that one Chucky. Hope you don't mind
Re: 2012 Alpine SufferfestJust saw on the news that they're packing sandbags in Cooma tonight because they're expecting heavy rain and flooding in the area
We might need to take a dinghy to get through Greg
Re: 2012 Alpine SufferfestLooks like the climbing gods are against us First Donny has his accident at work, then the weather, now Bandito is out A little run in has left his car out of action. No injuries suffered though
I guess a travel review is in order. Apologies for being unable to contribute in that regard. FPR Ragamuffin
Re: 2012 Alpine SufferfestSo Bandito's not coming, or just his car's out?
I have 2 cars available,however both will only take 1 bike. We may need to try jamming all the bikes in Spiza's van. Although if Don and Jeff are out we're down to 6 bikes. Then we can possibly take just one car with 4 people in it. Weatherwise I'm going to see how today pans out. They're expecting a fair bit of flooding in areas we need to drive through. I might give the accommodation guy a call tomorrow for some more local info if it's not looking good. Then we can make a decision on whether to bother going at all. Greg
Re: 2012 Alpine Sufferfesti wont be doing any cycling down there as all the climbing (standing up out of the saddle) will be too much for my foot. I still plan to come down though and be support/hand out water bottles or whatever is needed to make your cycling more pleasureable. I will still make my own way there and back.
Lerts hope all this bad weather is gone by friday lunchtime.
Re: 2012 Alpine SufferfestBoys....if the roads are ok to pass through...lets just go! I don't get a 3 day pass that often and thius weather can suddenly shine on Saturday like rain never fell this week!
Worst case scenario we get to drink at Jindy's LOL!
Re: 2012 Alpine Sufferfest
Re: 2012 Alpine SufferfestI think there was flooding between Cooma and Jindabyne last year. I remember driving through floodwater on the way home and looking at trees that were uprooted and deposited along the creeks. It could be an issue again this year.
Re: 2012 Alpine Sufferfest
There was no need to run into him Chucky. Thats a new low, even for you!! There are other ways to be the best. Just take a look at me!! Real men ride compacts
Re: 2012 Alpine SufferfestThe weather looks like being crap in the Alps for most of the weekend. We had a 4 day motorbike ride planned for Tumut-Buxton-Harrietville (and the 3 peaks loop route) that is now postponed.

Re: 2012 Alpine Sufferfest
Softies Ya don't even pedal your bikes
Re: 2012 Alpine Sufferfest
Yeah 900km in rain this week was enough GT Avalanche 1.0 | TCR Alliance 0 | Giant Bowery | BMW K1300R Two wheels good, Four wheels bad
Re: 2012 Alpine SufferfestGuys, I've spoken to the accomodation guy (Scott) this arvo, and I've just been checking the RTA live traffic site and Cooma-Monaro Council site.
At this stage the highway is still open, although there is water over the highway just west of Cooma. They are evacuating people in low lying areas around Cooma. Forecast is for more heavy rain today and tomorrow, rain Saturday and showers Sunday. Scott said that water can rise quickly around Cooma, but it also leaves quickly. I raised the possibility of us postponing our trip with Scott. I got the impression that if the roads are blocked he had no problems with us rebooking. I did however get the impression that if the roads AREN'T blocked, he would probably let us reschedule, but somewhat reluctantly. He said he would speak to his wife about it. At this stage they're booked up through April. Chances are with the dropping temps and long range rain forecast we'd have to put it back to Spring/ early Summer anyway. Worst case would be if we cancelled and Scott made us forfeit the $275, but he seemed like a decent bloke, so hopefully it wouldn't come to that. ATM I'm thinking of giving it til early this evening to see what the rain/ flooding does around Cooma. I know you guys have booked holidays, but if we're no chance of riding down there I'd rather stay at home. Any thoughts or suggestions? (relevant ones Georgey )
Re: 2012 Alpine SufferfestJust to add to that, they've just closed the road between Perisher Valley and Charlottes Pass "until further notice"
Re: 2012 Alpine Sufferfest http://www.weatherzone.com.au/nsw/snowy ... d-forecast
at 96%-99% forcast of rain/heavy rain our chances of riding is starting to look slim. I'll still ride in the rain if you guys are keen, but might bring the sh1tter and leave the 'vello at home lets go here - weather looks better http://www.weatherzone.com.au/wa/perth/ ... d-forecast
Re: 2012 Alpine SufferfestNewcastle ???
http://www.weatherzone.com.au/nsw/hunte ... d-forecast only because I'm bidding on an MTB on ebay due tom morning that i may win located there..
Re: 2012 Alpine SufferfestWe could visit Ryan is Brisvegas. It's sunny up there
Re: 2012 Alpine Sufferfest
am sure he wouldnt mind us crashing his place... =) lets go.. LOL...
Re: 2012 Alpine SufferfestI would really like to push through but its up to our collective judgment right now.
IF we will not push through, why not make an impromptu ride to the Entrance or Newcastle tomorrow. Sleep there overnight then headback Saturday. Don can ride his motorbike or drive Spiza's Van if he so chooses to. I mean we already prepped for this...why not?
Re: 2012 Alpine Sufferfest
Is this possible guys ?? Does anyone know any good riding up that way if we base ourselves there for a couple of days ?? Preferably with some climbing Sandy ?? How's the forecast for Bright ? Three Peaks on Saturday FPR Ragamuffin

Hypothermia is dangerously low body temperature, below 95 °F (35 °C).
Low body temperature; Cold exposure
Hypothermia occurs when more heat is lost than the body can generate. It is usually caused by extended exposure to the cold.
Common causes include:
As people develop hypothermia, their abilities to think and move are often lost slowly. In fact, they may even be unaware that they need emergency treatment. Someone with hypothermia also is likely to have frostbite.
The symptoms include:
Lethargy, cardiac arrest, shock, and coma can set in without prompt treatment. Hypothermia can be fatal.
Call 911 anytime you suspect someone has hypothermia. Give first aid while awaiting emergency assistance.
Persons most likely to experience hypothermia include those who are:
Before you spend time outside in the cold, do NOT drink alcohol or smoke. Drink plenty of fluids and get adequate food and rest.
Wear proper clothing in cold temperatures to protect your body. These include:
If you have diabetes or circulatory problems see your doctor regularly and maintain good health habits in order to reduce the risk of blood vessel complications that may put you at risk for hypothermia.

AminoFit 1000 provides a fast-acting whey peptide protein formula from enzymatically digested whey protein for superb bioavailability. These short-chain and branched-chain peptides are readily absorbed for rapid transport to muscles to maximize growth and repair.*
Protein powder manufacturers typically add only minor amounts of whey peptides to their powders, if any at all. Why? They taste rather bitter. Therefore, tablets are the only palatable method to consume significant quantities of peptides.
Approximately 50% of the essential amino acids (by weight) in this formula are branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs). BCAAs can be used by the body as an alternative muscle fuel which may help preserve lean muscle mass while exercising intensely.*
Each tablet contains about 1.3 grams of whey peptides providing 1 gram of protein.

Two things that regularly annoy me when I fly:
People who max out their allowed cabin luggage by bringing (1) one suitcase that is slightly larger than the allowed size (unless you are flying with Ryanair, no one will stop you from boarding the plane) and (2) instead of a laptop bag, purse or briefcase; a full rucksack. Of course, this takes up all space in the overhead compartment leaving little room for other people's bags.
People who use the toilet as a dressing room once they realise it is colder on the plane than at their departure location, due to the AC, resulting in long waiting lines for those who need to use the facilities for what they are actually there for.

Kirit Amin heads to Commerce as deputy CIO
Friday - 11/9/2012, 11:49am EST
The Commerce Department is getting a new deputy chief information officer.
Industry and government sources confirm Kirit Amin is heading over to Commerce from the Department of Housing and Urban Development. In addition to being the deputy CIO, Amin will be the chief technology officer.
He is expected to start in his new roles Nov. 19.
Amin joined HUD in February as the chief technology and innovation officer. Before that he was the CIO for the State Department's Bureau of Consular Affairs for five years, where he left in October 2011 and subsequently came under fire for comments made about the Foreign Service.
As the deputy CIO and CTO at Commerce, Amin will work a variety of activities to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of IT spending, and will lead the strategic management of IT resources throughout the department, helping to ensure that programs make effective and efficient use of IT, according to the job posting from July on USAJobs.gov.
Amin's responsibilities also include:
- Assessing current and emerging technologies, IT service delivery models, including shared services, and IT management best practices.
- Developing strategies, implementation and migration plans aimed at both department enterprisewide and CIO-level IT portfolios.
- Leading the collaborative development of business cases, as well as cost and reimbursement models supporting implementation of multi-organization shared services, infrastructure consolidation initiatives, and migration to emerging IT service delivery models, including cloud computing.
- Serving as a technical strategic advisor on projects requiring high level strategy, alignment, technical vision, management evaluation and oversight.
He will report to Simon Szykman, Commerce's CIO. Szykman has been leading an effort to improve how the department buys IT by consolidating duplicative contracts to buy computers and software.

The Fourth of July without fireworks is like a birthday party without cake and ice cream.
After all, Independence Day is America's birthday and as President John Adams once said, the holiday should be celebrated with "illuminations from one end of this continent to the other."
What better illuminations to celebrate with than fireworks?
These days many cities -- from big to small -- mark July 4 with big fireworks displays. Some shows are so big they're known nationwide, from New York City's with the skyline and Lady Liberty as a backdrop to the display over Independence Hall in America's birthplace, Philadelphia.
Those fireworks displays make those cities among the best places in the nation to celebrate the Fourth of July, but they don't quite rank with our choices for the best five fireworks shows in America.
No. 5: Lake Tahoe, Nevada/California - Lights On The Lake
Claiming to be the largest fireworks show west of the Mississippi River, the Lights on the Lake show fills the air above Lake Tahoe every Fourth of July.
And the fireworks above the alpine lake along the California-Nevada border are nothing short of spectacular. Fireworks are shot from a barge on the water and can been from almost anywhere on the lake.
You can watch the show from the shore or even venture out onto the water yourself. Rent a paddleboat or climb aboard one of two paddle wheelers that set sail from South Lake Tahoe for dinner cruise to go along with the show.
And the show is something special, featuring whimsical shapes such as jellyfish, stars, butterflies and smiley faces.
More than 100,000 people take in the fireworks each year, which are choreographed to music broadcast by local radio stations.
While one fireworks barge is impressive, our next destination sees Tahoe's barge and raises it.
No. 4: New Orleans - Go 4th On The River
New Orleans sure knows how to throw a party and -- aside from Mardi Gras -- there's no Big Easy party quite like Go 4th on the River, the city's Fourth of July celebration.
The festival's one-of-a-kind fireworks show features dueling barges shooting off fireworks along the New Orleans riverfront in front of 150,000 to 200,000 spectators.
The show is ranked fifth "must-see" fireworks display in the U.S. by the American Pyrotechnic Association, and for good reason. You've never seen a fireworks show until you've seen two barges trying to one-up the other.
Like the Lake Tahoe display, this one can also be viewed from the shore or from the water itself, with the paddle wheeler Creole Queen and the steamboat Natchez both offering fireworks cruises.
And while the fireworks themselves are amazing, that's not all the festival has to offer. Go 4th on the River also features concerts, a Mardi Gras-style party, food and door prizes.
No. 3: Seattle - Family 4th Fireworks
Perhaps all that needs to be said about Seattle's Family 4th celebration is that when it looked like it was going to die in 2010, the community stepped up and did something about it.
After word came that the festival would be canceled without a title sponsor, Seattle businesses and residents stepped up and raised $500,000 in less than 24 hours to ensure the show would go on. They raised the same amount this year to guarantee the celebration would take place for yet another summer.
That outpouring of support is no surprise given the beauty of the fireworks show, which are set against the natural amphitheater of Lake Union and synchronized to an inspiring score of traditional anthems and popular favorites.

Zimmermann, facing Tribe, aims for win No. 10
Nationals' righty will be opposed by Cleveland lefty Kazmir
After being on the wrong end of a walk-off against the Indians on Friday night, the Nationals are in need of a bounce-back performance. And there's nobody they would rather have on the mound in that situation than Jordan Zimmermann, the reliable right-hander who could become the second starter in the Majors to reach 10 wins.
Zimmermann boasts a 2.00 ERA and hasn't allowed an earned run in each of his past two starts. Besides a rough outing in Baltimore (seven earned runs in six innings), he has allowed just 13 earned runs in 12 starts.
The Nationals hope that Zimmermann will help them continue their recent spurt, which included consecutive series wins against the Rockies and Twins.
"Things are going to continue to get better, hopefully," third baseman Ryan Zimmerman said Thursday. "I think it's pretty impossible for things to stay the way they have been the whole year."
The Indians are in a similar situation. Including their current set against Washington, the Tribe has played nine consecutive series against teams with a winning record and won just seven of its past 23 games, including three sweeps. But after taking two of three against the Rangers and winning in walk-off fashion in the series opener, it seems like things are beginning to click.
"We show up every day to win," manager Terry Francona said. "When [losses] start building, everybody feels it, myself included. But you have to be able to weather those things and come through them."
In search of their fourth straight win, the Indians will hand the ball to veteran Scott Kazmir. Kazmir is 3-4 with a 5.33 ERA and has allowed four or more earned runs in half of his starts this season.
Indians: Perez has bullpen session
Closer Chris Perez hasn't pitched in a game since May 27 because of a mild tendinitis in the rotator cuff of his right shoulder, but he threw a bullpen session on Friday and likely will make a rehab appearance in the Minor Leagues this weekend.
Francona said that Perez struggled with command during his bullpen session but otherwise looked good. The Indians skipper hopes that Perez will only need one rehab appearance before rejoining the team next week.
"Hopefully, he's to the point where maybe it's only once. We'll see," Francona said. "Because he wasn't down that long, I don't think getting back is going to take a really long time."
• The Indians agreed to terms on Friday with first-round Draft pick Clint Frazier, the No. 5 overall selection. The team has not officially announced the deal, but Frazier said on Twitter that, "I have agreed to terms on my signing bonus with the @Indians, I will sign tomorrow !! #Tribe."

Nationals: Espinosa starts rehab assignment
Ailing second baseman Danny Espinosa played five innings at Triple-A Syracuse on Friday after completing three innings the night before. In the first two games of his rehab assignment, he is 1-for-5 with two runs scored and two strikeouts.
Espinosa is recovering from a bone chip in his right wrist, though manager Davey Johnson said the injury is not the only concern.
"I don't think the injuries are going to set him back," Johnson said. "I think he needs to get his timing down and start feeling good about himself from the left side and the right side [of the plate]."
Espinosa's usual replacement at second, Anthony Rendon, is batting .370 (10-for-27) in seven games.
Worth noting
• Only four Nationals have ever faced Kazmir over the course of his nine years in the Major Leagues. The hitter who knows Kazmir best, Kurt Suzuki, is 2-for-22 (.090) against him.
• Gio Gonzalez threw 127 pitches against the Indians on Friday, the most he's thrown as a National.

I have a recent thing for antique quilts. This was inspired by a quilt I saw in a magazine (Country Home?). It was solid red and tan, super simple, but made such a big impact in the room. So here's my take on it, with some really fun red fabrics. And now I have a fabric stash totally void of anything red. Luckily there's an easily solution for that. This quilt top is going to lay at the foot of my bed, and once again reminds me that simple is (almost) always better. And even better if its red.
This quilt top measures 61" by 83".
If you'd like to make it yourself here's a quick tutorial.
( Adding to the 100 triangle tutorials already out there. Make that 101 triangle tutorials now. )
Chain piecing comes in handy here and they whip up really fast.
Now do this 83 more times. Sounds like fun doesn't it? Stack 2 or 3 at a time for cutting to make it go faster.
My quilt was 11 squares by 15 squares. If you want it to fit a twin sized bed, I would account for some shrinkage and add one more column, making it 12 squares by 15 squares, or 67" by 83".
The tan fabric I used is from Joann's. If I remember right it was country classics in ivory? Double check that because I'm not positive, it was the same color as the linen.

Police: Boy steals lottery tickets from store
November 15, 2013 | AP
Police were seeking a boy and a woman after the youth snatched lottery tickets from behind a convenience store counter as she pinned a clerk against a back room wall.

Chief James Berlin says the clerk watched Thursday as the woman and boy walked back and forth outside the store, about four miles north of Detroit. When the clerk asked if they were all right, she was grabbed and forced into the back room.
The boy put the Michigan Lottery tickets in a backpack.

Birkenstock shoes represent quality products that are comfortable, unique, and timeless. Known for their contoured footbeds, Birkenstocks can help a variety of problems such as Plantar Fasciitis, Heel Pain, Toe Ailments, Bunions, Corns, Calluses, Metatarsalgia, and Morton's Neuroma. Healthy feet are the first step to a healthier you.
Deep arch support for maximum control. Flexible support absorbs shock and deep heel cup cushions and protects the heel bone. Highly recommended by doctors to relieve heel pain (including Plantar Fasciitis) symptoms. This insert is made of a combination of latex and cork and will contour to your foot. Lined with smooth, durable and breathable perforated leather. This insole also has a moderate metatarsal arch, which supports the ball of your foot. Great in casual, running, or walking shoes with laces, or low-heeled shoes. Helps with excessive pronation as well. Available in medium and wide widths.
Highly recommend getting these if you suffer from foot pain or work long hours on your feet. It helps ease the pain although i would get them fitted before purchasing them.
I now use three pair of these supports.
I have joint(ankle, knee and hip)problems. A nurse colleague recommended these. I have been able to walk, stand more comfortably than without the supports. Also have less pain in joints.

JACKSON — Small-business optimism remained flat in August, dropping 0.1 points from July for a final reading of 94.0, according to the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB). While the total reading showed essentially no change over the month prior, a look at the individual indicators reveals incongruent details. Job creation plans leapt to a […] [...]

Louis Garneau Gel Ex Gloves $29.95
There are many telltale signs that the seasons are changing on us, but one of the most apparent is the chill that we get at our extremities. We slowly give in and wrap our feet in booties, holding out with our short-fingered gloves until absolutely necessary. With the Louis Garneau Gel Ex Gloves, the transition is made easy, as the gloves provide the same comfort, dexterity, and support as our favorite short-fingered gloves, only now we get a little added protection from the cold.
Louis Garneau constructed the gloves using a laminated wind- and water-resistant fleece upper, making them ideal for fall and winter riding. At the palms, Garneau wrapped the cycling-specific gel padding with its durable Amara fabric. This is a synthetic, suede-like material that provides incredible grip at the handlebar. Additionally, it features Garneau's patented Ergo Air concept, which evacuates palm moisture and helps stabilize hand temperature by using its perforated and highly-breathable composition.
Garneau also designed the gloves using a pre-curved design in order to eliminate bunching, and to provide a natural feel at the bars and hoods. The Gel Ex gloves were finished off with fitted elastic cuffs and high-visibility, 3M reflective piping.
The Louis Garneau Gel Ex Gloves are available in five sizes from Small to XX-Large and in the color Black.
Hand Circumference | XS | S | M | L | XL |
Mens | 6-7in (15.2 - 17.8cm) |
7-8in (17.8 - 20.3cm) |
8-9in (20.3 - 22.9cm) |
9-10in (22.9 - 25.4cm) | 10-11in (25.4 - 27.9cm) |
Women | 6-7in (15.2 - 17.8cm) | 7-8in (17.8 - 20.3cm) | 8-9in (20.3 - 22.9cm) |

The WordPress.com team sends me a summary e-mail at the end of the year (complete with fireworks!) that lets me know my progress (I've been blogging for two years) and more about what you, the readers of this blog, find interesting to read about Jewish teens.
There is a list of the most viewed blogs–can you think of a better motivator? Even in my very, very small niche world, this list gets compared (ready?) to the number of climbers of Mount Everest! See below.
Here's an excerpt:
600 people reached the top of Mt. Everest in 2012. This blog got about 6,900 views in 2012. If every person who reached the top of Mt. Everest viewed this blog, it would have taken 12 years to get that many views.
See what I mean? Here's the list:
A Few Top Posts from 2012
1. From Jewish Camp to Synagogue: Five No Brainers
This post talks about the chasm experienced by many campers when they return home after a summer injection of Judaism, and what synagogues can do to bridge the gap.
2. Judging Jewish Education by Fun
What are the trade-offs between programs that offer fun and those that offer content?
3. Five Things Parents Should Know
I know what you may be thinking. People seem to like the number five. (See number 1.) Interesting, no? These are things that parents should know about Jewish education for their teens.
4. Hiring Teen Aides? (Full disclosure: this title had the number five in it too, but on my end, it's just how many tips I wrote at the time).
Synagogues use/hire teen aides in the classroom for all sorts of reasons. Here are some reasons to think about the intentions of these efforts.
5. One minute, three reasons why Jewish education helps teens focus on what's important.
The title pretty much says it.
6."Please feel free to contact me…."Advice for #Jteens and others
I wrote this in response to an e-mail I received from a job applicant, and found the comment an ironic one from a person wanting to make a favorable impression.
7. "Wow, You're Soooo Jewish!"
I wrote this post after hearing a student tell this to another student in a Jewish values class. It's interesting to see the students' take on just how "Jewish" things are.
One more thing, a 2011 post made the list, and you can read that here:
What I learned about marketing from working at a Jewish community high school

I have a hd4650 with fglx. I tried suspend with 10.1 last month and it worked like a charm.
I had lots of problems with older versions (last try was with ~ 9.6 ).
I upgraded fglrx to 10.2, and since I had only once the pc locked while it tried to suspend.
