2012 i-To-i Race
Fort Lauderdale, FL -- Wow! This will be the 10th year of the i-to-i! Time flies. It doesn't seem that long ago we ran the first one. Check out the website to learn the history of the event.
The 10th annual running of the Inlet to Inlet Long Distance Race is scheduled December 1-2, 2012. The i-to-i helps wrap up the US Windsurfing National Race Tour for 2012. More information, notice of race, (NOR), etc. can be found on the official race website: www.i-to-i.org Hope to see you there! Ron Kern |

Updates & Feedback Wanted
The i-to-i is just a couple days away. Hope you've got your cellphone case, gear checked twice, and are ready for the challenge. If you need to get stuff in preparation for the race, make sure you contact our generous sponsors:
Adventure Sports / Neil Pryde / JP Liquid Surf & Sail Sandy Point Progressive Sports / Aerotech / Exocet iWindsurf.com (If you would like to be a current or future sponsor, please contact me by email or phone.) The forecast is looking great for the race. SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY EAST NORTHEAST WINDS 14 TO 19 KNOTS ALONG THE COAST TO EAST NORTHEAST 18 TO 23 KNOTS IN THE GULF STREAM. SEAS 4 TO 6 FEET WITH OCCASIONAL SEAS UP TO 8 FEET. INTRACOASTAL WATERS ROUGH IN EXPOSED AREAS. SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS. I've heard from a few people planning to race that can make it on Sunday but not on Saturday. If the wind forecast holds and is true, it doesn't appear to matter a whole lot which day we'd run the race, so I'd like to hear from other people if they have a preference. It would be more fun to race on Sunday if the weather cooperates, but the wind comes first. In addition to perhaps better attendance on Sunday, the Hobie Cat fleet 44 is running what is the fleet believes to be the 40th anniversary of the Commodore's Cup race. I think it would be cool to be out when they are. Let me know if you have a preference to racing Saturday or Sunday. If we race Sunday is there interest in a tuning day or a pre-race clinic with racing tips, ocean sailing technique, etc. on Saturday afternoon? More later, Ron 954.565.4154 email@example.com |

The Race is ON for Sunday 12/2/12 / i-to-i Clinic Reservations
Thanks again to our sponsors who have come through with piles of prizes and events for the race.
Sandy Point Progressive Sports / Aerotech / Exocet Liquid Surf & Sail Adventure Sports / Neil Pryde / JP The i-to-i Race is on for Sunday 12/2/12. The first possible start IF you do not get another email is 11 a.m. Sunday, 12/2/12, skippers meeting at 9:30 a.m. Be prompt, seriously. I don't want to have to rush the skippers meeting or cut into rigging time. First race is targeted at 11 a.m., really. We want to launch minutes after the start of the 40th Commodore's Cup. However, this is not carved in stone and could be changed, (earlier), if it becomes apparent that a mid-day wind sag is not beneficial to getting the race off. If we are targeting an earlier start at 9:00 a.m. with a 7:30 a.m. skipper's meeting, or possibly before on Sunday due to predicted conditions, another email will be sent and the http://i-to-i.org website will be updated. Don't forget your waterproof phone case & start watch! Here's why Sunday is picked. 1). Better attendance 2). We can race along with the Cat 44 Hobie Fleet running on Sunday, 11 a.m. start. 3). The forecast is great for the next few days so it looks moot as to which day. I don't think we have a huge risk of not having wind for the race on Sunday. Forecasts vary but it looks like a minimum of 12 mph is in our future and mostly likely quite a bit more. NOAA marine forecast below: SATURDAY EAST NORTHEAST WINDS 14 TO 19 KNOTS. SEAS 3 TO 5 FEET WITH OCCASIONAL SEAS UP TO 6 FEET. DOMINANT PERIOD 5 SECONDS. INTRACOASTAL WATERS CHOPPY IN EXPOSED AREAS. SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS. SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY EAST NORTHEAST WINDS 17 TO 22 KNOTS. SEAS 4 TO 6 FEET WITH OCCASIONAL SEAS UP TO 8 FEET. INTRACOASTAL WATERS CHOPPY IN EXPOSED AREAS. SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS. 4). I am willing to offer a pre-race clinic 1:00 - 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, 12/1/12. I need to hear from anybody interested so I know to show up. Topics are up to the audience, but can include: shorebreak launch/landing techniques; ocean sailing tips, techniques, tuning, setup; on the water session; etc. When/if you respond let me know what would benefit you. 5). We can take advantage of some great happenings that are going on Saturday. Dave Kalama SUP clinic - Free! See invitation in link below: http://ronkern.com/2012%20Kalama%20Clinic.jpg Wow! Awesome opportunity to learn from Dave Kalama! In case the directions aren't clear above, here's an address and coordinates that should be pretty close: 225 N. Beach Road, Dania Beach, FL 33004 or 26.05825�N 80.11201�W 6). Party, prizes and more at the Adventure Sports Fort Lauderdale Grand Opening 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. See invitation in link below: http://ronkern.com/2012%20Grand%20Opening.jpg Did you read open bar, rock/blues band, food, prizes & giveaways, above? Yes, it's all going to be there and more and Neil Pryde himself will be there. I'm planning on bringing my blue coffee table book, Will to Win - The Remarkable Story of Neil Pryde Limited, from last year's i-to-i prize giving to the party and have it autographed. Dave Kalama will be attending as will a number of the Cabrinha team riders. 7). We can hold an after race party at my house on Sunday. Last year many said it was the best party ever. Let me know if you want to attend the i-to-i clinic on Saturday, otherwise I'll see you later on Saturday for the Kalama clinic, the party and of course Sunday morning at the skippers meeting. This could be the best i-to-i ever! Looking forward to seeing you all soon. Ron Ron Kern (954) 565-4154 |

If testing OpenGL, why not test using a driver that properly supports it (e.g. nvidia blob)?
Any way, it looks that even with compositing disabled, KDE is still the slowest of the bunch when it comes to gaming.

On 15 March, iiNet CEO Michael Malone called for copyright holders in the film and arts industries to endorse iiNet's proposal for a new independent body to be established to oversee investigations concerning the illegal downloading of copyright material.
iiNet's proposal for the new body to act as an "impartial referee for the resolution of disputes and the issue of penalties for offenders" was released in a 14-page brochure entitled Encouraging legitimate use of Online Content: An iiNet view [1]. The brochure also asserts iiNet's view that it is not acceptable for Hollywood studios to spend millions of dollars advertising their films in anticipation of cinematic release, without also making the films available for purchase by consumers on other platforms at the same time or shortly afterwards: "In our opinion one of the most effective ways to reduce piracy is to make the content legally available in a timely fashion, at an attractive price."
iiNet says its proposal attempts to fill in the gaps between consumers, ISPs and content owners who, it claims, should have access to the new independent body for all disputes. The model features a seven-step process, starting with detective investigation and identification of a suspected infringer, then determination of whether the matter satisfies the test of being "cogent and unequivocal evidence" before an issue notice is supplied to the ISP requesting personal user data. Using that data, the independent body then contacts the individual account holder, notifying them that they have been identified as having unauthorised copies of copyright material. An appeal process is available for consumers who believe they have been wrongly accused. From this point on, punitive action may be taken against the infringer.
The iiNet model provides for a number of penalties – excluding the removal of Internet access, which it says is "both inappropriate and disproportionate". It proposes a graduated penalty structure, similar to that used for traffic offenders, using a points system in which each infringement results in the loss of a number of points. When the points run out, punitive action may be taken. The iiNet model requires the majority of funding for the independent body to come from the copyright owners themselves.

DETROIT (Reuters) - Detroit Mayor Dave Bing on Wednesday turned down an invitation to bid on hosting the 2024 Summer Olympics, citing "uncertainty" over the city's long-term financial stability.
One of 35 U.S. cities to receive an invitation from the United States Olympic Committee (USOC), Detroit is teetering on the verge of bankruptcy and would be an unlikely candidate to host the games.
Detroit bid unsuccessfully to host the Olympics seven times between 1944 and 1972.
A statement released by Bing's office said the city's "rich history of hosting major events" and its location across the river from Canada make Detroit "an appealing candidate" to host the summer games in 2024.
"Unfortunately, due to the timing and uncertainty of Detroit's long-term financial stability, we must respectfully decline to participate," the statement said.
Bidders are required to make an up-front $10 million payment and commit to a $3 billion operating budget.
Detroit in recent years has hosted a number of major sporting events, including a National Football League Super Bowl, NHL Stanley Cup hockey playoffs, NBA and NCAA basketball finals and Major League Baseball's World Series.
Bing's statement comes just days after Michigan Governor Rick Snyder announced a financial emergency in Detroit and his intention to appoint an emergency manager to control the city's finances.
The USOC sent invitations to bid to the nation's 25 largest cities -- Detroit is 18th -- plus an additional 10 cities that had expressed interest, in February.
At the time, the governor's office called the bid invitation "a welcomed vote of confidence" in Detroit's future.
USOC spokesman Patrick Sandusky said any city may bid but must meet several requirements, including having 45,000 hotel rooms, an Olympic Village that sleeps 16,500 and has a 5000-person dining hall, operations space for more than 15,000 media and broadcasters and an international airport.
The USOC has a little over two years to select a candidate to submit to the International Olympics Committee.

Unique Seaflex
Unique Seaflex provides products for two major areas: Air Lift Bags (ALBs) and Inflatable Buoyancy Units (IBUs). Open-bottom underwater ALBs are designed for supporting and lifting loads from any depth. While their single point attachment is ideal for lightening underwater structures such as pipes and templates, their main application is for lifting vessels and other loads from the seabed to the surface. IBUs are mainly used for installation bouyancy on pipeline beach pulls, shore endings and river crossings. They are also good for supporting loads on the surface, 'float out' operations and vessel draft reduction. Both Unique Seaflex ALBs and IBUs have been built and tested in compliance with IMCA D-016-Revision 3, and are in constant use with offshore and marine contractors all over the world.

Quality bedding is often defined by the thread count of the fabric, whether it's a sheet, a comforter or a blanket. Thread count is the number of woven threads in one square inch of fabric. Higher thread counts create higher-quality weaves that generally feel smoother and softer. Lower thread counts can pill and feel rough, but are affordable and serve their purposes just fine.
Common thread counts range from 180 to 320, but thread counts as high as 700 also exist. The thread count alone doesn't determine how a fabric performs and feels, though. You'll also want to look at the yarn size and ply when determining the level of quality you desire.
Yarn Size: Yarn size refers to the thickness of the individual threads that make up a woven fabric. The higher the yarn size, the finer the thread. Quality sheets usually have a yarn size ranging from 40 to 100. Finer yarns can only be made from high-quality, long staple cottons such as Supima. Yarn size is important to thread count because finer yarns take up less space than thicker yarns, thus the highest thread count sheets are generally made from the finest yarns.
Ply: The other important component to thread count is ply. Single ply fabrics are made from individually woven threads of yarn, while two-ply fabrics are made from two threads of yarn that are first twisted together and then woven. Since two-ply fabrics have essentially double the thread count of their single ply counterparts, two-ply fabrics must be made from extremely fine yarns, otherwise the end product might feel too bulky and heavy.
Down is an all-time favorite material for bedding, used with great frequency in comforters, blankets and pillows. The soft and airy plumage that protects waterfowl from the elements (including extreme cold), down serves the same purpose when used in bedding, creating a lightweight, high-loft cocoon of warmth. The air spaces between clusters of down insulate and allow moisture to evaporate, creating warmth and combating clamminess.
Down should not be confused with feathers; they are two separate things. A down cluster is not a small feather; it has a quill point but no shaft, resulting in greater resiliency. As well, a down cluster is lighter than a feather. Down can be white or gray, but the color makes no difference in quality whatsoever.
Differences in down are based on the size of down clusters. Larger clusters boast more insulating power. The clusters' sizes are largely determined by the bird's species, age and climate, as well as the processing techniques.
Contrary to popular belief, less than 1% of the population is allergic to down and feathers. Many people believe they are allergic, but in reality are probably reacting to dust and dirt accumulated in the bedding, or impurities that result from a manufacturer not cleaning the down enough.
Fill power is an important factor in the fluffiness of down bedding. This is the volume of the down and its resilience to compression. It is defined specifically as the number of cubic inches an ounce of down fills. The higher the fill power, the softer, lighter and more resilient the bedding item becomes. Items with high fill power—such as 500 to 550—provide excellent insulation and breathability.
It is essentially impossible to separate down and feathers completely, so no product will be 100% down. The higher the fill power an item boasts, the greater the percentage of down. Common down contents range from 65-85%.
Usually, a higher thread count is preferred with down items because it creates a tighter weave to better contain the down and feathers, lengthening the life span of the item.
Down Care: Down bedding items can last a decade or longer with proper care techniques. Here are some good practices.
Selecting your sheets is just as important as choosing a good mattress! When making your decision, it is essential to consider the fabric, fiber and thread count that will produce the comfort-level that's best for you.
Fabrics/Fibers Sheets can be made from many different fabrications. Various fibers and weaves are ultimately responsible for the particular performance characteristics of a sheet set.
Thread Count Quality sheets are often defined by the thread count of the fabric. Thread count is the number of woven threads in one square inch of fabric. Higher thread counts create higher-quality, more durable weaves that generally feel smoother and softer. Lower thread counts can pill and feel rough, but are affordable and aptly serve their purposes. Common thread counts range from 180 to 1,200. While important, thread count does not alone determine how a fabric performs and feels. Also consider the yarn size and ply when determining the level of quality you desire.
Sizing Make sure you have precisely measured your mattress for its length, width and height. Most mattresses are usually made in specific standard sizes, but there is the possibility of slight variances. Deep pockets will be required for Eurotop or pillow top mattresses.

Launch using a wood peel- it produces far less surface tension.
Also, as weird as it may sound, Wondra is terrific for a peel dusting medium.
I use rice flour on a wooden peel. It acts very well to prevent sticking and make the launch easier.
wooden peel, just plain old flour, I'm old school!
Slotted peel and the same flour as is in your dough is the best solution.
Dough on its contact side to the base when baked well, has a look. Apart from the taste, what happens in that short amount of time when heat meets that vulnerable surface is dependant on time, temp, and anything that is in between. It is where the "rubber meets the road." The most neutral tasting, anti-gravitational agent to allow quick and accurate delivery of the base element is crucial. Traditional flour, Rice flour, Semolina, Wondra?
I saw what TscarBorough said about a slotted peel. Did you mean a peel that's sort of perforated? My friend has one for pizza that's metal and from Italy. It was the one specific for pizza. The solid surface one was for bread.

these shoes are cheaply made and look it. The leather is rather dull and I doubt will take a shine (but I didn't try since I am returning them). They are not expensive and might be OK for some situations, but if you are wearing something that looks like expensive ostrich, you want them to look better than these shoes do.
Great shoe. I show the shoe to my friend and he ordered two (black and brown)
These loafers are nice for the price!! Not bad at all and very comfortable!

does anyone know why there is no women's XS size???? or perhaps a more useful question would be, does anyone know if the shirts will shrink if you wash them forty or so times?

Odds are it won't shrink enough. Would you fit in the kid sizes? The women's sizes run big. At least a size bigger than what I would think is normal.
I have seen several ladies indicate that they wear kids sizes. I'd recommend you check out this thread on ladies sizes for the new Anvil blanks for more details.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I apply for financial aid?
To apply for financial aid, you will need to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). This application is used to determine which aid programs you will be awarded. You can apply online at www.fafsa.gov/.
Why am I still considered a "dependent" student?
Federal student aid programs are based on the concept that it is primarily your and your family's responsibility to pay for your education. Because a dependent student is assumed to have the support of parents, the parents' information has to be assessed along with the student's, in order to get a full picture of the family's financial strength.
Determining a student's dependency status is important in determining a student's eligibility for federal aid programs. Your answers to questions on the FAFSA determine whether you are considered a dependent or independent student. An applicant is considered to be a dependent student unless he or she can answer "Yes" to one of the dependency questions on the application and are able to provide supporting documentation. If the student applicant answers "No" to all of the dependency status questions then he or she is considered to be a dependent student for federal student aid purposes and must provide parental information.
Please be aware that not living with your parents or not being claimed by them on tax forms does not make you an independent student for purposes of applying for federal student aid. Occasionally, unusual circumstances may exist that require a review of the student's dependency status. These unusual circumstances are commonly cases of abuse or abandonment. If you feel that you have an unusual circumstance, please contact the Office of Student Financial Aid.
What happens to my financial aid if I drop a class or withdraw completely from school?
Withdrawing from all classes or dropping a class at any point after the drop/add period will negatively impact your completion rate and possibly affect your eligibility for future aid. Additionally, if you withdraw from all courses during the semester, you may be required to return some of your financial aid.
How can I get more money?
We always award students with their maximum eligibility in federal aid based on their qualifications. However, because of federal loan limits, students may not have enough funds to cover all of their educational costs. If you are in need of additional funding beyond the aid you were awarded, you could consider a Parent PLUS Loan or a private student loan.
Do I have to complete the FAFSA every year?
If you want to receive financial aid funds, then yes, you have to complete the FAFSA every year.
What is the difference between a subsidized loan and an unsubsidized loan?
After you apply for aid, you may be offered either a subsidized or unsubsidized loan, or a combination of both. The primary difference between the two is the interest rate and when the interest begins to accrue.
- Subsidized Loans are awarded on the basis of financial need. You will not be charged any interest while the loan is in deferment status, such as while you are enrolled, as the federal government subsidizes or pays the interest.
- Unsubsidized Loans charge interest from the time the money is first disbursed until it is paid in full. The interest is capitalized, meaning that you pay interest on any interest that has already accrued. One way to minimize how much interest accrues is to pay the interest as it accumulates.
Only undergraduate students with demonstrated financial need are eligible for Subsidized Loans. Direct Unsubsidized Loans are available to undergraduate and graduate students. We use federal regulations to determine the amounts each student may borrow by considering the cost of attendance and other financial aid.
To learn more about Federal Direct Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loans, visit the Department of Education's Direct Loan comparison website.
When can I expect my loan refund? Can I get my aid early?
Financial aid is disbursed after drop/add has ended. Only students who have completed all the necessary requirements can expect for their funds to disburse at the end of drop/add. Check the Dates/Deadlines section of the website for the exact date of when aid will disburse.
Why am I considered not to be making Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) when I have no failing grades? I was advised to withdraw from the class rather than receive a low grade.
Even though withdrawing from a class may help your GPA, the SAP Policy considers hours dropped with a "W" as attempted. You must complete 67% of the classes you attempt to be meeting the progression portion of the SAP Policy.
What is verification and why was I selected?
Verification is a process mandated by the US Department of Education to confirm the accuracy of the information provided on the FAFSA. All requested documentation must be provided before a student's financial aid eligibility will be determined.
Is it too late to file my FAFSA?
You should complete your FAFSA as soon as possible after January 1. We encourage all students to apply by the April 1 priority date, as some resources are limited and may run out. However, if you miss the April 1 priority date it does not mean you cannot apply. You should submit the FAFSA as soon as possible so your aid eligibility may be determined.
What happens if I repeat a course?
Changes in federal regulations impact how financial aid can be used for classes taken more than once.
You CAN receive financial aid:
- To repeat a course that has already been passed (D- or higher) only one additional time. Any repeated attempts after that will not be eligible for financial aid. Note that this applies even if you earn a failing grade (F) or withdraw (W) during the second attempt.
- As many times as necessary to repeat a course in which the only previous grade earned has been a failing grade (F).
- Even if a passing grade has been earned for certain repeat courses, such as Band or thesis hours, due to different subject content being studied in each term.
All courses previously taken, even if financial aid was not used, are compared against the current semester to determine if it is a repeated class and whether it can be paid for using financial aid. Your financial aid may be recalculated if you take a class that is not eligible for financial aid. This policy does not provide exceptions if the repeat courses are taken to meet plan of study grade requirements, i.e. a grade of C or higher must be earned to count towards your major.
Example with ACCT 2100: | |||
Term | Eligible for Funding? | Reason | Grade |
Fall 2011 | Yes | First Attempt | W |
Spring 2012 | Yes | Not Passed Before | F |
Summer 2012 | Yes | Not Passed Before | D |
Fall 2012 | Yes | First Repeat | D |

Fall 2012 | Yes | Not Passed Before | F |
Spring 2013 | Yes | Not Passed Before | F |
Fall 2013 | Yes | Not Passed Before | C |
The repeat coursework rules only apply to undergraduate students. Repeating a course can also impact your Satisfactory Academic Progress status (SAP). All grades count for SAP and all hours attempted and earned count as well. PLEASE NOTE: If you have questions regarding your courses and repeat coursework, please contact your financial aid counselor. The rules for repeat coursework are quite complex and your individual situation will need to be reviewed.

KarlaUSABring Back The Old Formula!!!!!I too have used the Revitalizing Shampoo (and Weightless Conditioner) for years and loved it. It gave my hair VOLUME and LIFT!!!

I will shop around for a new product now.posted Oct 15, 2009Link to this post

MarilynGarnerville, New York, United States.Why! Why! Why Did You ChangeThe old formula was much better. I thought it was me that my hair felt flatter and much frizzier. Please bring back the old formula. It is hard finding something comparable to it.posted Sep 29, 2009Link to this post
Mary ContraryIt Wasn't Broken - Why Did You "fix" It?I have been buying the old formula for years, and also noticed a change a few years ago... I was as if it was a watered down version or something. Then I couldn't find it in Canada anymore... so on a trip to Hawaii, I found this newest version and it's like a bad joke, my hair is FLATTER than ever. Man have they really ruined a wonderful product. PLEASE BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL FORMULATION PLEASE!!posted Sep 18, 2009Link to this post
TessaBarnstable, MA USANot So Great...bring Back The OldWas intrigued by the added ingredient of caffeine. Tried this 'new' product, and was very disappointed. Definite difference from the previous formula. Please return the original formula. Sad and limp until that happens....posted Sep 4, 2009Link to this post
KimWe All Agree We Want Old Formula Back!I've been trying to contact the company about this for years. It appears everyone else here agrees...my experience is that the formulation changed in the mid to late 90's...somewhere around 1996-1998...at least that's when the new product reached the stores in my area and when I and my other half both noticed it had changed. At the time, Advance Laboratories was on the bottle, and when I tried contacting them through both email and phone, I never received any response. Then the company either went under or was sold. New company was then Henckel Schwarzkopf...have been having a terrible time trying to find them as well...that was absolutely the best shampoo for both men and women (the scent was WAY better than the new brown top one as well...this stuff smells like bug spray). My hair was 10 times fuller than it normally is and you could feel the difference when you dried your hair, right down to feeling like the roots were standing up. If anyone has any info on company, websites, whatever, I would love to know...can send me an email at email@example.com. LET'S GET IT BACK!!!!posted Aug 29, 2009Link to this post

One survivor is confident that he is running the game to suit his goal of winning but is on the receiving end of harsh words before the next duel at Redemption Island.
Simmering family rivalries come to the forefront during an intense tribal challenge. One castaway's decision on what to do for the rest of the game has a tremendous impact on the remaining contestants.
morelessThe first duel is held at Redemption Island with the participants trying to do well enough to stay in the game. Despite earlier declarations, one tribe member reverts back to the attitude and form seen in the past.
morelessIn the season opener, two tribes are assembled composed of past contestants and their loved ones with the goal of being the sole Survivor and winning a million dollars.

OH, MERCY! Now Progressive Searcy Countians, Americans, Buffalo River Landowners, and the Corps of Engineers have been... GORED ... by some erstwhile "conservationists" and nature lovers from Fort Smith, who ran an ad in the March 14 issue of the Southwest Times Record. They intimated we are about to destroy a thing of joy and beauty forever when a much needed impoundment on the Buffalo River is created for the State of Arkansas. CHUG A LUG They didn't mention to you good people that: If the dam is constructed it might inundate their "Favorite Drinking Preserve." HERE IS THEIR RECORD ...as published in the Marshall Mountain Wave weekly newspaper, April 30th, 1964. Of those arrested (named in the following news story) the following persons also sponsored the misleading diatribe against the dam last Sunday: Dorsey Ryan, Tom Mueller, Robert W. Vater, Jim Chesser, and Gerald Delung. They were defended by the great defender, Heartsill Ragon. Sheriff Siezes [sic] Untaxed Whiskey, Beer From Group On Buffalo River Sheriff Beal Sutterfield raided a group of from 20 to 35 fishermen camped close to the river bank at the old Maumee Ferry on Buffalo river Wednesday evening of last week and confiscated 16 Quarts of Untaxed whiskey and approximately 10 cases of beer. Sheriff Sutterfield said that he received reports Wednesday afternoon from citizens of the area regarding the group that drove to the river Wednesday, and it was reported that some of them were carrying a considerable amount of intoxicants. The Sheriff, accompanied by Justice of the Peace L. A. Potter, and a number of deputies arrived at the river about 9 p.m. and found a number of the men drinking and intoxicated. Upon searching the cars a total of 16 quarts of untaxed liquor, bearing Louisiana tax stamps, was found and many cases of beer. All the beer bore the Arkansas tax stamp but many of the cars contained more than the three gallons which is permitted under the law. Warrants were issued for Dick Mueller, Max Hare, Dan J. Gaither, Henry Scheilder, Charlie McRae, George Farmer, Jim Chesser, Charles Ivy, Cal Remmel, Thomas C. Mueller, Gerald DeLung, for possession of untaxed liquor and additional warrants were issued for Richard 0. Miles, Clyde Gains, D. M. Ryan, Gerald DeLung, John P. Shields, and Robert Vater for over possession of intoxicating liquor in a dry territory. Hearing on the charges were heard Saturday afternoon by J. P. L. A. Potter in the courtroom of the county courthouse. The group was represented by Heartsill Ragon, an attorney of Fort Smith, who joined the group Thursday. At the hearing John P. Shields, who stated that his company had organized the group for a fishing trip, plead guilty to owning all the untaxed liquor and was fined $100.00 and costs. Richard O. Miles, Clyde Goins, D. M. Ryan, Gerald LeLung and John P. Shields, also plead guilty to the charge of over possession and were fined $50.00 and costs each on the charge. Total fines and costs amounted to $515.50. The group at the river Wednesday evening stated that they were the early arrivers of a group which would gather at the river from four states, and that more than 100 people were expected before the end of the week. Although they denied they had any connection with the Ozark Society and had no opinion as to whether or not the river should be dammed—some of them were well acquainted with Dr. Neal Compton of Bentonville, head of the Ozark Society and leader of the opposition to the proposed dams on the Buffalo. Some complaints of the group driving on the roads between Marshall and the river were made by the citizens of the Morning Star community and by some of the residents along the ridge road to the river. Some of the party that came to Marshall after ice and were reported to be in an intoxicated condition when they arrived in town. The group left the river late Saturday afternoon or early Sunday morning. TRUTH 1.- Ozark Society defenders forgot to tell you good people that more than 45 miles of the most scenic portion of the river above the lake would remain free-flowing— Enough for a 3 or 4 day float trip. Below the dam there will be more than 50 miles of river remaining in natural flow and condition. 2.- Hemmed-in-Hollow, Goats Bluff, Diamond Cave, Fitton's Cave and other attractions WILL NOT be disturbed. 3.- Where some scenic bluff might be partially inundated the water will back up around the hill, create a long finger into another hollow, and Lo--another bluff has been Unlocked that was not accessible before. WHO KNOWS, the dam may unlock MORE natural beauty than it now has. 4.- LOVE THE BUFFALO ... they said! Who has a right to love it more--The Landowners and Nearby residents who claim it in heritage, or the gamehogs and drinkers who come to sink beer cans in it while being paddled around by convicts from the Arkansas State Penitentiary??? National Treasure indeed!!!! Please help us keep this for you and I— not the political kings and their slaves. 5.- This entire area desperately needs that water resource for city water, industrial development, recreation etc. The proposed lake is in a naturally economically depressed area. Construction of a lake would result in more tax dollars to the state--less relief and welfare money-- greater attraction to tourists and residents alike. A national park would result in taking land OFF the tax rolls, a disenfranchised citizenry, government ownership of more land.....and what?? The government already owns thousands of acres in National forests and parks in Searcy, Newton, Stone and other surrounding counties. Do we need more of the same. If this brings such prosperity — this section should indeed be prosperous already!!! 6.- YES, PLEASE DO WRITE YOUR CONGRESSMEN, as the Ozark Society advised. Only, tell them to vote FOR PROGRESS, and For the Buffalo Dam. Tell them that you are a loyal Arkansas citizen who wants to see ALL of Arkansas prosper and Grow More Beautiful. Tell them Selfishness and Greed should not prevent the development of this lake for all Arkansas. Please do it today!!! _____________________________ The people of Searcy county only ask the right to develop their own property to the best interest of all our people. 75% of the landowners in the lake site favor construction of the proposed dam. And they have expressed their position by a petition to Congress and the Board of Rivers and Harbors. We solicit your help. Please do not hurt us. Buffalo River Improvement Association James R. Tudor, President Gibson Walsh, V-President Kate Ruff, Secretary-Treas.

ENERGY GUEST BLOG -- ANDREW THOMAS Ohio should stay the course on energy efficiencyBy ANDREW THOMAS 8:00 am, November 20, 2012
Recently, FirstEnergy Corp. of Akron recommended to the Ohio Legislature changes to Ohio's energy efficiency portfolio that would essentially freeze the energy efficiency mandate found in Senate Bill 221 at current levels. As currently written, Senate Bill 221 calls for Investor Owned Utilities (IOUs) to undertake energy efficiency improvements by 2025 equal to 22% of 2008's energy consumption. FirstEnergy's proposed changes would end the mandate at the less than 3% cumulative reduction required to date.

An idiot who has an unhealthy obsession with Harajuku girls. She was better off with No Doubt.

Lead singer in No Doubt, chose to go solo and sell out even more by trying to make crappy hip hop/pop music. Has a strange obsession with Japanese Harajuku girls, even though the real Harajuku girls in Tokyo only dress like that on the weekends because they live in a conformist country. Upon asking a few Japanese exchange students at school they said that she seems like a asshole and she is trying to build a fan base in Japan even though Japanese people don't really care for her.

A solo pop artist who manages to be both a wigger and a wapanese at the same time and still be loved for it.
Gwen Stefani is a platinum blonde who made a "rap" video, which she tried really hard to be ghetto in. She likes screaming "So kawaii!!!!!!" (pronouncing kawaii wrong) and getting four Japanese female lapdogs to follow her around. Why do people like this woman?

Lead Singer of the multiplatnium selling band No Doubt. Notorious for her plantnium blonde hair, perfect abs, and original style. Also designs for LeSportsac and her own line, L.A.M.B. . Married Gavin Rossdale in 2002. Famous for the songs " Just A Girl ", " Don't Speak " , " Simple Kind of Life " , " Hey Baby " , and " It's My Life ".

A pretty good example of a sellout. Gwen, the lead singer of the formerly skankin' No Doubt, decided that ska was just a fad and began cranking out horrible pop songs for MTV2 to repeat 100 times daily. Any talent that she showed off with No Doubt is completly missing here, seeing as how all she can sing about is how much her fecal matter resembles bannas. Not to mention her borderline creepy fascination with Japenese Harajuku girls.
What happened to you Gwen Stefani? Couldn't afford to fill your pool with champagne?

former singer of punky/surf band No Doubt. along the line, someone told gwen she was the best thing about no doubt; she started watching their own promo videos (where pop directors concentrated on her- sex sells) and she took all that bullshit seriously. but hey, thats what cocaine does to you. now, shes living in la la land, has orientalised (see Edward W. Said 'Orientalism') japanese culture and is more of a softcore porn star than a musician.
her most recent single (of march25/05) 'rich girl' embodies notions of consumerism and excess. she is the tip on an iceberg of fat, sleaze ridden american popular culture.

There's a rapidly growing pile of books here (courtesy a recent donation from a friend), including the translation of the Georges Hébert classic The Natural Method (translated): Georges Hébert's Practical Guide to Physical Education. This is the Kindle version, and I must say, it looks great. Take a peek at the 'Look Inside' part of the Amazon page and you'll see what I mean. Full review shortly. In the meantime, I'm curious : what are you reading right now? NB : We first looked at this one in the weekly Strength & Fitness Newsletter (part of the Strength Kit).

The Art of Expressing the Human Body
If you've ever watched a Bruce Lee film and marveled at his strength, speed, agility, endurance, flexibility or muscularity, this book should take pride of place in your collection. Unlike many other writings covering everything from Lee's training methods to nutrition, this book is based not on the recollections of people around him; but on Lee's own notes. Brilliant.
