Research Paddles in the Buyers' Guide! |
I contacted Patrick, and sent the paddle and $75 repair fee to him. He's in Hawaii, so shipping is not trivial. Package tracking shows my package was delivered. However, I've tried to reach Patrick via email, home, and cell phone numbers, and text messages. Over the past year he has not replied to any of my communications. I had to buy a new paddle this year.
While I loved this paddle, and still use and love using my Onno mid-wing, I cannot recommend doing business with someone who blows off customers when it suits him.
Unless you live in Hawaii and can track Patrick down, pick another vendor.
Also see:
for another opinion on Onno paddles.
I try to treat it with respect (like a fine tool) but it has not been overly 'babied' or often left home in the closet. Sporting narrower touring blades (18� long x 6 3/8� width) it doesn�t get as big a �bite� in the water as paddles with wider dimensions. However, it has a very low swing weight (mine weighs 24 oz tip to tip) and potentially delivers a faster cadence if and when speed is desired. Like any individual paddle it will not suit every conceivable condition (like surf zones, white water, or sprint racing) but I heartily recommend one for regular exploration.
Make no mistake about it, every paddle that Patrick has put together and sent out to me, I feel is an actual expression of him, as an artisan. If you ever worked with your hands... I mean if you have ever done some serious trade work that required sanding something and breathing fumes and dust... Or of you ever paid your bills doing, old school, blue collar work... You simply cannot help but appreciate the special kind of stuff that Patrick offers his customers/ friends.
YES, of course, when ordering a paddle you do have to patient with him. Your paddle is going to take him some time to get around to building... After all, he is only one man for heaven's sake. It's not like there is an assembly line of Patricks in a factory somewhere, punching a clock to start the day and then sitting down to lunch when the union factory noon whistle blows. Having to wait a month or two for you paddle at times, simply has to be expected, when you are waiting for one man, to hand build you "your" paddle... But in the end, in my humble opinion, the paddles are more than worth the wait.
Because of the individualistic attention to their creation, the karma that surrounds Onno paddles seems to endear them to you. For me personally, my Onno paddles almost seem to each have their own personality and soul. Over time, for me, they have become like that ol' favorite pair of jeans, or motorcycle jacket, or that favorite old car you once owned as a kid, and actually gave a name to...
I personally own and use three different Onno paddles. If I want to do a quick ten to fifteen miles in a morning and make my shoulders feel like I went to the gym, I go with the F.A.S.T Tour...
If when I start out in the morning, I am feeling an old childhood football injury flaring up and need to take it easy, I turn to my "special width, made just for me" customized, Full Tour Signature... My special curvy Full Tour...She nurtures and takes care of these old shoulders when they need to be pampered.
But my dream paddle, the one paddle that has spoiled me and that I hold as dear in my heart as that doe browned eyed, long dark haired girl, I dated in high school... That paddle would be my divine Onno Sprint Wing... Man, what a dream it is to tour paddle with my Sprint Wing. At a touring paddle pace, while pushing forward my 50ish, troll like, two hundred pounds plus body and my 60 pound plus Kaskazi Dorado ski/kayak hybrid, my Sprint Wing is simply...
Who am I kidding...I simply love my Onno paddles. I love their adjustability. I love their value. I love the fact that the guy that builds them for me treats me more like a friend, than a potential profit and actually gives the time to give me advice even if I don't always take it.
Yes, I have had a few other paddles besides my Onno's... I have had a top of the line, all carbon, four hundred dollar, foam core Werner paddle that under power, fluttered through the water more than the batting eyelashes of the cast of La Cage Aux Folles... Some people may prefer that to the solid tracking and stickiness off my Onno blades. But I don't... Please understand, I'm not trying to disrespect the Werner paddle here, but for a four hundred dollar paddle to flutter so much under any sort of power-stroke... It was a terrible disappointment. I used the paddle two times, washed it, polished it, and then resold it on Ebay at a large discount.
I also had a costly Epic mid-wing blade, in their cheaper lay-up, that still cost a small fortune... It just didn�t feel any quality in the paddle as compared to it's price... Sure, it may be a nice ski paddle, but on a wider and heavier sea kayak? Nope, not for me...
Now, I have to say that Eddyline's Sea-Swift paddle is a paddle I enjoyed using at one time.
It was a very durable and practical paddle indeed, and if you ever communicated with the owner of Eddyline, you know what an amazing gentleman he is... I give a thumbs up to their paddles.
Bending Branches, I found they make a nice dependable paddle to push a plastic sit on top around...But when you get a little more serious about paddling, the Bending Branches paddle gets sold with the plastic boat.
Ohhh, I can't forget the Fenn Wing Letterman Blade - Don't even get me started on that thing... That paddle was singularly the biggest disappointment I have had when purchasing paddling gear. I was so disappointed in that paddle that I actually have used one blade to nail in nails in my old garage wall to hang things on...
Anyway, to finish this version of a paddle buyers "War and Peace", I think I should take the time to express my limited paddling experience, so that any crazy soul that actually takes the time to read this thing can put my opinion in proper context. No, I openly admit that I can't claim to be proficient in the proper execution of all of the 82 different paddle strokes and braces because I have been paddling for the token boastful "25 years"... I have not raced kayaks, nor do I spend my time "bench racing" online in kayak & surfski forums... Which I have discovered, seems to at times, be the main requirement for one to consider themselves a paddling expert. I'm just an everyday joe kinda guy. A retired, 50ish year old, New York blue collar fella that absolutely loves to go out on a nice morning, a few times a week, 6 months a year, and spend 3 to 6 hours out of the day paddling for fitness. In the beginning of the season, I only cover 8 - 12 miles an outing; summer through fall, those trips extend to about 16 to close to 30 miles for the day.
I started paddling five years ago for the purpose of kayak fishing. Within a year, fishing was out of the equation and paddling became my new hobby & passion. I really enjoy immensely, the amazing feeling of being out on the bay waters of one of NYC outer boroughs, paddling and enjoying the scenery around me. Well not always... There is that very overweight, bald, old naked guy that likes to sunbath on an abandoned-car, riddled beach, along the side of the highway. He likes to stand up to do a hands on the hips, Superman pose, every time a boat goes by... While this may be appealing to some, to be honest, that is something I can honestly live without. To each their own...
Anyway, I have used close to a dozen different paddles over the years. I currently own three kayaks whose use I alternate according to weather conditions and time of year... I also own and on occasion, go out and fall off of a Fenn Mako XT surfski. In other words, I'm a guy that really likes to paddle his kayak, for no other reason, but for the fact that he really loves to go out and paddle a kayak...
For me personally, there is currently only one paddle company I currently use, and there is only one paddle guy I go to when I need a friend to build me a special use paddle... That guy/ friend is Patrick, and that paddle is, and always will be... An ONNO!
Faaaaaaaaa-reakkkkk-iiiinnnnnn AWESOME!!!
I LOVE my Sprint Wing!!!!
The seam between the blade and shaft is covered with a layer of tape that had several 1/4 inch gaps. I found myself making repairs on a new paddle by filling the gaps with epoxy. After being used about 20 times the ferrule locker failed and had to be replaced at my expense.
Bottom line is this design has proved to be too fragile for regular use and I end up choosing more durable paddles on a regular basis.
I let a young lady try my paddle. She had never used a wing or even held a carbon paddle before. She was blown away. She noticed the lack of flutter immediately and of course the light weight. Patrick's got a future customer.
About the paddle. I purchased his Full Touring blade in the 2 pc carbon signature lay up. The visual impression is one of craftsmanship and attention to detail. The ferrule and lever lock system ONNO uses are without a doubt the best on the market. As for how it felt, flawless! This blade is about a smooth and easy through the water as you can get. From a standstill the response was instant and the acceleration effortless. What amazed me the most was how fast I was going vs. my energy level. This paddle does a great job at converting your stroke into forward momentum. The light weight combined with the great blade design gives one the sense of being connected, physically and spiritually to the water.
I can not say enough about the quality and excellent design of my ONNO Paddle. Please support Pat and his wonderful family. Buy ONNO Paddles, you will not be disappointed.
The Good:
Incredibly light. Ferrule system is AWESOME. Low profile and easy to use. Shaft has a wet sanded finish unlike other racing paddles with a smooth, slippery finish.
The Bad:
There is a catch at the end of the stroke. Need to overcome it by using an aggressive high angle stroke. I can feel some flexing if sprinting at full force from a stand still. A little confused as carbon is supposed to be stiff?
The Crunch:
I use it for fitness paddling and it works great.
Best for those with an aggressive high angle stroke. Avoid if you're a leisure paddler who wants to do casual touring. Huge blades might tire you out quickly.
The next negative 2 points come from the paddles behaviour itself. There is a catch at the end of the forward stroke that kinda bugs me. Seems not many others have experienced the problem but when compared with some Werners, Lendals and Aquabounds that I have tried/ owned at some point in time it seems that this catch stands out a little. Could be just me (I doubt it, since many fellow paddlers mentioned the same thing).
On a more positive note. The paddle feels great and looks great. It has a beautiful ferrule system that works magic on the water when you feel like a quick switch. The thing is as light as a feather even tho I have extra lay-up on my design because I like to practice rescues, and it saves a lot on physio appts with the old biceps tendonitis.
All in all, the paddle to me was just "O.K". The lightness and feel weren't enough to out weigh the performance of the paddle for me. I kayak the North Atlantic and frequent long trips. There are better paddles out there if you don't mind spending an extra 50 bucks on them. If I had my time back I would have gone with a Lendal or the Werner (just a personal choice)
Pat of Onno Paddles certainly lived up to his reputation for good service, and we exchanged several emails before I opted for one of his Carbon Signature paddles at US$250. The paddle arrived in Hong Kong, where I live, within only three days after I made payment by PayPal. I couldn't believe how light it is, and how beautifully crafted. I sent Pat an email thanking him, and he replied to say he had given me one of his top of the range all-carbon paddles. They should cost US$350, so he had given me a US$100 discount!
The paddle can be adjusted between 215-225 cms (my choice of lengths), and all you have to do is flip a tiny lever where the two sections join, after making the adjustment. Simple as that, and tight as can be. I've never seen this lever method before. I changed the length three times while paddling last weekend, going for speed and then relaxing supportive strokes, and it only took a few seconds. Loosen the lever, and the two halves come apart easily, which is a boon while at sea.
The paddle feels really comfortable in the hands, and I'm very pleased with it. You can't get the personal touch from the big boys. Here's to small companies like Onno and long live the Internet for giving us the chance to find them.
I'm pleased! Mahalo Patrick for another great paddle at a more than fair price.
The paddle is lighter then advertised and very well made. Pat is a pleasure to work with and is a fountain of knowledge concerning paddles. I'll be getting another for my wife.
The workmanship is first rate, and the paddle has a solid feel to it. Feels like it is one-piece. Hard to believe.
The carbon blades and shaft return superb control when paddling. It is the performance and light weight that really make it a 10+. The matrix ferrule, with adjustable feather and length, works great.
A note about the shape of the blade - Most kayak blades on the market are shaped somewhat like spoons in their surface area, and this allows a paddler to use a shaft length slightly shorter than what would be used to have the full blade surface in the water when paddling without much of a sacrifice in performance. Whew.
The Onno touring blades, and others, are more rectangular, well, maybe like a trapezoid, in shape, and this means that the full surface area of the blade should be submerged when paddling to experience the total benefit of the blade. That benefit is very good from the mid-tour blade, and results in almost effortless cruising paddling with the potential for power when needed.
I recommend the matrix ferrule with adjustable length, and allowing a few cm on the long side. Might buy another next year.
Quality is first class, no frills. The paddle is light, has good catch, power, release and great feel. Blade size is perfect for my paddling cadence and the length is right. Pat also made a Full Tour Carbon Signature paddle for my wife and she loves it - from the first time she used it, she says it "feels like a natural extension of my (her) arms".
Very reasonably priced. If you call Pat, be patient. It's a one man shop. When he does talk to you, he will pay attention and guide you through your options. He really knows paddles.
Patrick (the maker) is very accomodating, and took the time to talk to me extensively (long distance) to make sure he knew my preferences. He even custom cut the blades for me at no extra charge!
This paddle is not as rugged as some, but is ultra light and wonderful on those long paddles. In addition, the shaft is plenty stiff and the blades hold their shape on a strong pull. At 22-23 oz., I am extremely pleased with the ONNO performance.
I have used many others, including my much loved Lendal Crank, and although there are stronger blade shapes, the ONNO dihedral seems to provide the best combination of pull, cavitation, and light weight. I must say that for long paddles and lightweight efficiency, I cannot think of a better value in this price range.

Eli Roth bitten by baby octopus
Actor, who suffered a bizarre ocean accident several years ago, says his finger continued to bleed for hours.
Fri, Apr 26, 2013 at 10:12 AM
Photo: INFphoto.com
Maybe Eli Roth should just stick to the beach.
The 41-year-old actor/director, recently on vacation in Hawaii, spotted a baby octopus while on an underwater sea scooter expedition. As TMZ reports, curiosity unfortunately got the best of him and when he reached to touch the little guy, he was welcomed with a nasty bite to his finger. Roth says it bled profusely for hours — possibly a result of the mild venom some cephalopods inject.
This latest incident pales in comparison to the ordeal Roth suffered in 2010, when his kayak was almost sucked down by a freak underwater sinkhole.
"I was about a mile from the shore, behind a huge rocky island," he tweeted. "I had to swim to the island and got pulled under the water and nearly hit it."
And then things got worse.
"I scrambled up and got about 200 sea urchin pins in the bottom of my feet and my palms," he continued. "The rock was covered in crabs. It was like a scene out of 'Starship Troopers.' I screamed for help until a fisherman saved me. This was in Mexico. I do not speak much Spanish."
Once on shore, Roth then went through the grueling process of having the 200 pins removed from his feet and hands — without anesthesia.
"The best part was when I googled 'sea urchins' and it said that they are poisonous, but if you get 1 spike, you'll be fine. I had over 200. Luckily, the crabs were scared of this Bear Jew on their rock and they'd back away. But then a wave would come and displace everyone. My feet and hands were such a mess I couldn't walk – I had to crab-walk on my butt around the rock to find an opening where I could jump in. Two days later 4 baby sharks were spotted near where I was stranded. And where there are babies… I actually thought to myself "Oh my God – I'm going to get eaten to death by crabs! And I won't even be around to tell [Harvey Levin]."

Perhaps nowhere in the federal workforce is trust more frail than in the intelligence community. It is still reeling from the revelations of former NSA contractor Edward Snowden. The Director of National Intelligence recently issued two policies to clamp down on employees' speech. The first says only a few authorized officials can talk with journalists. In this week's Legal Loop, Tom and Emily looked at the policy's impact on trust in the intelligence community as part of our special report, Trust Redefined: Reconnecting Government and Its Employees. Employment lawyer Debra Roth said on The Federal Drive the new policy stands out because it covers unclassified information.

Eastern Promises(2007)The mysterious and charismatic Russian-born Nikolai Luzhin (Viggo Mortensen) is a driver for one of London's most notorious organized crime families of Eastern European origin. The family itself is part of the Vory V Zakone criminal brotherhood. Headed by Semyon (Academy Award nominee Armin Mueller-Stahl), whose courtly charm as the welcoming proprietor of the plush Trans-Siberian restaurant impeccably masks a cold and brutal core, the family's fortunes are tested by Semyon's volatile son and enforcer, Kirill (Vincent Cassel), who is more tightly bound to Nikolai than to his own father. But Nikolai's carefully maintained existence is jarred once he crosses paths at Christmastime with Anna Khitrova (Academy Award nominee Naomi Watts), a midwife at a North London hospital. Anna is deeply affected by the desperate situation of a young teenager who dies while giving birth to a baby. Anna resolves to try to trace the baby's lineage and relatives. The girl's personal diary also survives her; it is written in Russian, and Anna seeks answers in it. Anna's mother Helen (Sinéad Cusack) does not discourage her, but Anna's irascible Russian-born uncle Stepan (Jerzy Skolimowski) urges caution. He is right to do so; by delving into the diary, Anna has accidentally unleashed the full fury of the Vory. With Semyon and Kirill closing ranks and Anna pressing her inquiries, Nikolai unexpectedly finds his loyalties divided. The family tightens its grip on him; who can, or should, he trust? Several lives - including his own - hang in the balance as a harrowing chain of murder, deceit, and retribution reverberates through the darkest corners of both the family and London itself.

text: March 19, 1938 July 24, 2012 Longtime Alaskan and Kenai resident Marilyn I. Dimmick, 74, died Tuesday, July 24, 2012, at Central Peninsula Hospital in Soldotna with her family by her side. A celebration of life will be 3 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 26, 2012, at the Kenai Senior Center. Reverends Janice Colton and Marti Stater will officiate. A private graveside was held in the Kenai City Cemetery. Marilyn was born March 19, 1938, in Pittsburgh, Pa. She moved to Alaska in 1962, residing in Anchorage. There, she worked for the State of Alaska Division of Aviation from 1967-69. She then moved to Ninilchik, where she owned and operated Mamas Kitchen Take-Out from 1974-94. She moved to Kenai in 1992.

American Academy of Pediatrics also gives advice on best medicines to treat infestation
Many children have an occasional nightmare, usually of monsters or similar creatures. If your child wakes from a scary dream and has difficulty getting back to sleep, speak calmly and reassure your child that it was only a dream, advises the American Academy of Pediatrics. Encourage your child to describe the dream if he or she wants to, but again, provide reassurance. If your child begins having more frequent nightmares, talk to your child's health care provider.

CBS News/New York Times Monthly Poll, September 2004 (ICPSR 4163)
Principal Investigator(s): CBS News; The New York Times
This poll is part of a continuing series of monthly surveys that solicit public opinion on the presidency and on a range of other political and social issues. Respondents were asked to give their opinions of the 2004 presidential campaign, including for whom they would likely vote -- George W. Bush, John Kerry, or Ralph Nader -- and their level of support for that candidate. Questions were also posed regarding candidates' handling of or ability to handle current issues, such as the campaign against terrorism, the economy, and the situation in Iraq. Additional survey questions queried respondents' perceptions of the state of the economy, Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein's role in the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, and the Swift Boat Veterans group advertisements. Background information includes voter registration status, political party leanings, labor union affiliation, urbanicity, frequency of religious participation, sex, religion, social class, education, age, ethnicity, marital status, length of time lived at current address, political ideology, whether the respondent voted in the 2000 or 2002 elections, and income.

KStew Defenders are located in Brazil. They have been keeping us up to date Isle Esme news. Now they share their story of the location, filming, and their journey for Twilight fans.
From KStew Defenders (translated and posted with permission):
Before I begin to tell you about my days at 'Isle Esme' and all the things I discovered, I must tell you how I got here. A month ago I was in Paraty with my friend Stefani and we discovered many important things. Before they had even confirmed the recording of Dawn in Brazil, we already
knew the dates, locations which would be used for filming and lodges
which would be used. Excuse me for not having shared this with you before but I really could not say ANYTHING about it.
I arrived early on Wednesday (10/11) in Paraty. I was alone and trying to be brave. I
left my backpack at the hostel and went to Paraty-Mirim is where you
can charter boats to the bag Mamanguá, where the recordings are
The road to Paraty-Mirim is horrible. The road is very narrow, ambiguous and one foot deep. (Hint: Do not go alone there, even if you have a lot of courage!).
After a journey of about 40 minutes from the beach to the island, I saw MANY boats concentrated in one place. Boats of all types, all with an orange flag (which is a sign that you will have to get away from that area by the house). Once a boat tries to get closer, the boats with security approach and try their hardest to make your boat move away. If you try to get a little closer, the Navy is requested and may seize the boat. The safety on the island's too strong, both by sea, as the land trail.

If I could find words how I love you to say No words ever said can my feelings convey If I could express my love in words or sentences They may sound like a baby's first utterances Your love is even more… our souls know well Your sighs mesmerize me like a magical spell Ours is a story of the Sun and the Sunflower They saw with their hearts, their love had such power That if the sunflower was once sad and downcast The sun looked at the sea with emotion so vast Its waters swelled and its cries touched the skies The skies were so blue, the wind was their sighs And the sun looked at the wind with such pain It carried the love to the sunflower as rain And the rain became a song of the purest love And the sunflower past the tallest tree towered above Your love is my sunshine, more than I ever dreamed I adore you like the sunflower in its beloved gleamed

D-plex/TheOne Cycle
D-plex/TheOne Cycle
I would like some advise on a cycle of D-plex. This is a clone of The One by Appnut so maybe I can get some help here. I love appnuts products so naturally I'm interested in The One which is no longer available. Im going with an OTC PCT. I do not want to use a research chemical. I picked D-plex because it is known for being mild. I'm just looking to lean up a bit and build some muscle. Not looking to get huge.
Here is how the cycle will go.
Week 1&2-Cel Cycle Assist.
Week 3-5-Cel Cycle Assist and 75mg of D-plex
Week 6&7-Cel Cycle Assist and 100mg of D-plex minus one day at 75g. That should finish the bottle.
Week 8&9-Cel Cycle Assist, Cel Pct Assist. DAA and DS Lean Xtreme
Week 10-Cel Cycle Assist, Cel Pct Assist, DAA, DS Lean Xtreme and Inhibit E x3
Week 11-Cel Cycle Assist, Cel Pct Assist, DAA, DS Lean Xtreme and Inhibit E x2
Week 12-Cel Cycle Assist and SNS Inhibit E x2
Week 13-Inhibit E x1
Or for PCT go with four weeks of 6 Bromo, Titanium, Lean Xtreme and DAA.
Now my question, Is there a better product that SNS Inhibit E. I also have in hand one bottle of Appnut free test. I was interested in Products like PES Erase, Iforce Reversitol V2 and DS Triazole in replace of Inhibit E. - 10-03-2011, 06:04 PM

Drop the cycle assist during your run. Doesn't it contain saw palmetto? Anyways of the ai's you mentioned free test and triazole are the best in my opinion.

Thanks for the advise, I wasn't sure about the TRS but after some research it looks good.

Director: Axel Braun
Company: Hustler Video
Jay Lassiter, Scott Nails, Memphis Monroe, Mya Luanna, Sascha, Ana Nova, Chris Charming, Jennifer Dark, Lacie Heart
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: All-Sex
Director Axel Braun provides a new almost nasty look for contract girl Memphis Monroe ? who appears in three of the five scenes.
Great pains are given to make her look like she has an evil side ? including dramatic lighting ? but it doesn?t quite work to where a dark side of this woman can be believed 100%.
Monroe is paired up with Lacie Heart for a girl/girl, in a threesome with Mya Luanna and Scott Nails, which flirts on strong kink, and also takes on Nails and friend Sascha.
However, aside from multiple partners, Monroe never goes beyond conventional sex. For this scenes are added with Jennifer Dark getting especially nasty, and anal, with Jay Lassiter as well as Anna Nova sharing her d.p. with Sasha and Chris Charming.
Her look never does get dark, but it at least clouds up a bit.
Retailing: Market primarily to fans of Memphis Monroe.

"To contend that the obligation imposed on the president to see the laws faithfully executed implies a power to forbid their execution is a novel construction of the Constitution, and is entirely inadmissible."
— U.S. Supreme Court, 1838
Congressional Republicans' long-simmering dismay about Barack Obama's offenses against the separation of powers became acute when events compelled him to agree with them that the Affordable Care Act could not be implemented as written.
But even before he decreed alterations of key ACA provisions — delaying enforcement of certain requirements for health insurance and enforcement of employers' coverage obligations — he had effectively altered congressionally mandated policy by altering work requirements of the 1996 welfare reform; and compliance requirements of the No Child Left Behind education law; and some enforcement concerning marijuana possession; and the prosecution of drug crimes entailing mandatory minimum sentences; and the enforcement of immigration laws pertaining to some young people.
Republicans tend to regard Obama's aggressive assertion of enforcement discretion as idiosyncratic — an anti-constitutional impatience arising from his vanity. This interpretation is encouraged by his many assertions that he "can't wait" for our system of separated powers to ratify his policy preferences. Still, to understand not only the extravagance of Obama's exercises of executive discretion, but also how such discretion grows as government does, read Zachary S. Price's "Enforcement Discretion and Executive Duty" forthcoming in the Vanderbilt Law Review.
Price, a visiting professor at the University of California's Hastings College of the Law, demonstrates that the Constitution's "text, history, and normative underpinnings" do not justify the permissive reading Obama gives to the Take Care Clause, which says the president "shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed."
It is, says Price, part of America's "deeply rooted constitutional tradition" that "presidents, unlike English kings, lack authority to suspend statutes" or make them inapplicable to certain individuals or groups. Indeed, the Take Care Clause may have been intended to codify the Framers' repudiation of royal suspending prerogatives. Hence the absence of an anti-suspension provision in the Bill of Rights.
Congress' excessive expansion of the number of federal crimes, however, has required husbanding of scarce prosecutorial and judicial resources, which has made enforcement discretion central to the operation of today's federal criminal justice system. But Obama's uses of executive discretion pertain to the growth of the administrative state.
The danger, Price says, is that the non-enforcement of many federal criminal laws will establish "a new constitutional norm of unbounded executive discretion" beyond the criminal justice system. Price says the enforcement discretion exercised in the context of the resource-constrained criminal justice system provides "no support for presidential authority to decline enforcement with respect to any other given civil regulatory regime, such as the Affordable Care Act."
In 1998, the Supreme Court held that "there is no provision in the Constitution that authorizes the president to enact, to amend, or to repeal statutes." But by claiming a power to revise laws through suspension of portions of them, Obama is exercising what Price calls a "second veto."
Actually, he is wielding what the Constitution forbids and no statute can grant — a line-item veto, which violates the Presentment Clause. The Constitution says "every bill" passed by Congress shall be "presented" to the president, who shall sign "it" or return "it" with his objections. The antecedent of the pronoun is the bill — all of it, not bits of it.
Fortunately, in our constitutional system, actions often produce equal and opposite reactions.
Obama's aggressive assertions of executive discretion are provoking countervailing attention to constitutional proprieties. His departures from the norms proper to the Take Care Clause may yet cause Congress to take better care of its prerogatives.
George Will is a columnist for The Washington Post.

The cave spider is a neutral mob that can inflict poisoning.
Monster spawners[edit]
Cave spiders spawn from monster spawners in abandoned mine shafts.
They drop 0-2 string. They also have a 1⁄3 chance to drop a spider eye if killed by a player. They drop 5 experience when killed by a player or tamed wolf.
Cave spiders inherit most of their behavior from regular spiders:
- They are pacified (made neutral) by bright light (daylight or light levels of 9 or higher). Likewise, subjecting them to darkness will render them hostile.
- They can climb walls when needed.
- They attack by leaping at the player.
- They are not affected by cobwebs or poison.
However, cave spiders will not spawn with beneficial status effects and cannot spawn as spider jockeys.
When bitten by a cave spider on difficulties higher than easy, the bitten entity is inflicted with
Poison I[1] for 7 seconds on normal difficulty and 15 seconds on hard.

Issues relating to "Cave Spider" are maintained on the issue tracker. Report issues there.
- The cave spider's texture appears to be at a higher-resolution than its normal counterpart - this is because the textures occupy a smaller space.
- Despite being smaller, they have the same size shadow as a normal spider.
- If cave spiders are allowed to spawn naturally via hacks, they will only spawn if the light level is 7 or below (like most other hostile mobs).

Reproductive and menstrual history of females with fragile X expansions

FRAXA premutations have been associated with premature ovarian failure (POF) or menopause before the age of 40. We have studied women in families ascertained because of a mentally retarded full mutation relative and determined their age of menopause, serum hormone levels in premenopausal individuals and the outcome of any pregnancies. Survival analysis was used as a measure of menopause and demonstrated a significant decrease in age of menopause in premutation carriers compared with their full mutation carrier and normal relatives. Serum FSH was also raised in premutation carriers, although oestradiol, inhibin A and inhibin B were not significantly different. However, we did not find an excess of dizygous twins or pregnancy loss/trisomies, both of which are associated with aging ovaries. Thus premutation carriers as a group have an earlier menopause and raised serum FSH but do not appear to manifest other features of an aging ovary

Vermont Gov. Peter Shumlin says he'll travel to Florida next week to listen to the F-35 fighter jet and to Italy to give a speech and take some vacation time.
The governor says he heard during this year's campaign from some voters concerned that if the Air Force goes ahead with plans to base F-35s at the Burlington Airport, noise from the planes will plague surrounding residential areas.
Shumlin says he'll go to Eglin Air Force Base in Florida on Wednesday to listen to an F-35 and to an F-16, the plane currently housed at the Vermont Air National Guard base, so that he can compare them first-hand.
Shumlin then says he'll go to Rome to give a speech in his new role as chairman of the Democratic Governors Association.
Shumlin plans trips to Florida, Italy

Creative mom explores how to live a sustainable life with a focus on food.
Father's Day beer: Victory's Swing Session Saison
This light, spicy, beer is perfect for saying "Cheers" to dad on Father's Day and enjoying throughout the whole summer.
Fri, Jun 14, 2013 at 02:44 PM

I'm about to get a little cliché on you. For Mother's Day, I recommended some rosé wines when celebrating mom. For Father's Day, I'm going to recommend a beer.
I'm usually a dark beer lover, so I was blown away by how much I enjoyed the beer I'm recommending, Victory Brewing Company's Swing Session Saison beer. I had the chance to sample the beer at the Philly Farm & Food Fest earlier this spring. It's light, peppery, spicy, citrucy and incredibly flavorful. If the guests at your Father's Day celebration have a bit of a sophisticated beer drinking palate, this would make a great beer to toast all the dads you're honoring.
Victory is a craft brewer located in Downingtown, P.A., but their beers are located throughout the country. The Victory beerfinder can help you locate a seller near you.
Not only does Victory make great craft beer, they're also an environmentally responsible company. They use clean, renewable energy in the form of solar panels and recaptured and reused natural gas used for the boilers to power their brewery and restaurant. Their spent grain is sent to a local farmer to feed farm animals. They're also actively involved in the watershed protection of the nearby Brandywine Creek.
The brewpub associated with the brewery is farm to fork with a comprehensive composting program that composts more than 73 tons of food waste annually.
Victory Brewing Company's Swing Session Saison beer is a beer that will take you through the summer. The Belgian style ale is both light in color and in alcohol – 4.5 percent. I can definitely picture drinking this beer while sitting on a balcony watching the sunset over the bay this summer.

It is very effective at making a point, but it would be more effective if it followed up with the multitude of beautiful faces that populate our world. Kids need to realize that there is more than one vision of beauty. Looking around any Middle School classroom can be proof of that, at least to me. But, I doubt the students can see it. Woody

Do you remember when you were a boy, and girls had cooties?
And when you would laugh whenever you heard duties?
Do you remember when the moon was cheese, and life was bliss?
Do you remember all of the things you miss?
Do you remember when you were a girl, and boys were icky?
And you didnt know when you were being so picky?
Do you remember when youd get scared at boo?
I wonder, do you remember me too?
Do you remember the cookies your mom always made?
Or just playing in the old oak trees shade.
Do you remember when magic was real, and the sky cried?
Can you remember the first time you said I tried?
Do you remember all those clouds above you?
They looked like flowers, birds, maybe a shoe?
Do you remember when the earth was flat and you could fall?
Dont you remember these things at all?
I remember these things, and that you were mine
If you need these memories back, ask anytime
Ill be here, waiting beside you
Ill be here, to say I love you
Just felt like writing poetry today

Yegon has bold ambitions in Toronto
Gilbert Yegon at the 2010 Boston Marathon (Victah Sailer) © Copyright
Following the race he announced that, had it not been for muscle cramps suffered in the closing stages of that race, he would have also beaten the 2:06 barrier. Gebrselassie, of course, is also a two-time Olympic 10,000m champion and held the Marathon World record at 2:03:59 until last year.
Yegon, a 24-year-old Kenyan, therefore comes to the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon on 14 October - an IAAF Silver Label race - with confidence and some very ambitious goals.
"I am hoping to run a good time - under 2 hours 6 minutes if it's God's will," he declares. "I will fight to get those (time) bonuses."
Scotiabank is offering $25,000 for a new course record which is presently held by Yegon's countryman Kenneth Mungara at 2:07:58. And, if the course record is broken with a time under 2:06, the bonus is increased to $50,000. The winner will also receive $20,000. For a young Kenyan, whose future includes owning his own farm, this money would be a blessing.
Yegon is managed by the Dutch based Global Sports Communications and trains at their high altitude training camp in Kaptagat, a village some 40 kilometres from his home in Eldoret.
Amongst his training partners are 2012 Olympic marathon champion Stephen Kiprotich of Uganda and the 2003 IAAF World 5000m champion Eliud Kipchoge. They are coached by Patrick Sang, who was himself the 1992 Olympic silver medallist in the 3000m Steeplechase.
"I run throughout the year two times a day but on Sunday I run once," he says of his commitment. "When I am not training I relax and socialize with my fellow friends."
Although he is grateful to the training group and to Sang's mentorship it is fellow athlete Eliud Kipchoge, whom he credits with providing the initial inspiration for him to become a runner. Kipchoge, in addition to winning the 2003 World championship at eighteen years of age, was the 2004 Olympic 5000m bronze medalist and the 2008 Olympic 5000m silver medallist.
After finishing school at Kiptulos Secondary School in Eldoret Yegon impressed many observers with his 3rd place finish at the 2008 Nairobi Half Marathon. His time was 1:02:43, a fine debut, considering the race was run at 5,000 feet elevation. A year later he improved this personal best time to 1:01:26 in the Berlin Half Marathon thereby launching his professional running career.
Several small, nagging injuries interrupted his training throughout most of 2011 preventing him from getting the solid three months of high volume training which is necessary for a world class marathon. But now he claims he is top shape. At the Vienna Marathon on 15 April he returned to form with a splendid second place finish in 2:07:38.
"I am new to the [Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon] race. I know nothing about it," he says. "I have been busy with training. Thank you and may God bless you."

For taking life's sour lemons and making them into fresh lemonade, Flip Saunders, Glen Taylor and the entire Timberwolves front office should receive some sort of public service award.
A feint here, a little misdirection there and several well-timed public statements have turned the equivalent of basketball Armageddon into a bright new morning at our little NBA outpost.
Just two months ago, people were wringing their hands over reports that Kevin Love would not re-sign with the Timberwolves. Instead, Love would opt out of his contract after the 2014-15 season, in essence forcing the team to trade him as soon as it could for as much as it could. There goes the franchise. There goes the future.
It all looked very bleak. Yet flash forward to the present and here's Flip sitting in his office, smiling and wielding one of those old-fashioned, cast-iron nutcrackers. Want to talk about acquiring Mr. Love? Be prepared to get squeezed.
The asking price continues to get steeper, and a couple of teams, most notably the Cleveland Cavaliers, are desperately trying to keep up with inflation. The net result is that there is a sense of anticipation, a positive vibe, permeating our area. The consensus appears to be that this might turn out OK after all. At the very least, the loss of Love won't mean certain doom.
What a remarkable turnaround from the earlier despair. What happened? Two things: First, Saunders and Co.
And for all anyone knows, maybe Love will become so enamored of Saunders as coach that he might decide to stick around after all. That was the theory being floated, anyway.
Second, LeBron James got involved. After announcing his return to Cleveland, James let it be known that he wants Love brought on board. And really, that settles things. What LeBron wants, LeBron gets. So Cleveland's offer apparently is increasing. According to reports, the Cavs may be willing to offer top overall draft pick Andrew Wiggins, the previous year's top overall draft pick, Anthony Bennett, and maybe even next year's first-round pick.
Normally, draft picks and the Timberwolves go together like peanut butter and, well, artichoke hearts. But this still seems like a lot. Not so fast, Saunders replies, still wielding the nutcracker. Let's see what else might come our way. Let's see how Golden State responds. Remember, we might not trade him at all.
Just two days ago, Glen Taylor told NBA-TV that his "preference" is for Love to remain with the team. That remark was dutifully reported by national and local media outlets, including those in Cleveland and Golden State.
Was he blowing smoke? Well, you know, these owners can be unpredictable. Taylor is as a prime example. Here's a fellow who, as if he hasn't suffered enough with the Timberwolves over the years, has decided to get into the newspaper business in the year 2014. According to financial pundits, that's the equivalent of investing heavily in the horse-and-buggy business just as the Model T's began rolling off the assembly line at Henry Ford's Detroit factory in 1908.
Also remember that Wolves general manager Milt Newton publicly insisted as far back as May that, if Love were traded, the Wolves would have to wind up a better team for it. Those stern comments set the tone for the "no fire sale here" approach. And the organization has stuck to that.
We know, of course, that there is a 99 percent chance that Love will be traded, especially now that LeBron has weighed in and officially requested his presence in Cleveland. Yet notice that Saunders didn't jump right away, even after the Cavs allegedly included Wiggins in the package.
The Timberwolves appear to have gone from being tapped out to holding all the cards. There is a buzz surrounding the team, and it's more positive than negative. It seems as if something big is about to happen. Something good or, at least, not horrible. Who'd have thought we'd get from there to here in a couple of months?
So congrats to Flip Saunders and the organization. It's hard to say how it will all work out but, for now, they've made chicken salad out of chicken, um, droppings.

It's hard to pigeonhole the Traction blog. Sometimes you get funny posts that are somewhat related to the industry, like this one in which the agency's creative director explains why he isn't Don Draper for the digital age. Other times you get posts that aren't related to advertising at all, like this recipe for garlic mash potatoes.
We'll chalk those two posts (and others of that variety) up to Traction's unique culture. But if your boss wants to know why you're reading a blog that seems a little off the wall, you can always show them this.
Every few weeks, Traction goes back to school, getting a primer on some aspect of digital. But the great thing is that you don't have to work at Traction to learn something new, because the agency shares the slideshows from its "Learn Phase" series. And because it's coming from Traction, the slides are anything but dry. So when I clicked on its recent SEO series, I was pleasantly surprised by the fact that the presentation 1) didn't put me to sleep and 2) dramatically increased my knowledge of SEO.
Honestly, I can't tell if I come for the distractions and stay for the knowledge or vice versa. But it really doesn't matter. When I check in with Traction, I'm always entertained, and I usually leave the blog with some extra knowledge. Not bad.

Newbie in South Jersey
I am new to both sailing and being a sailboat owner. I just registered a 1975 Islands 17, yesterday!
I've been spending some time with a friend at Cooper River Yacht Club, learning the ropes (HAH!) and hope to soon become a member myself. My grandfather was a boat builder but ironically, our family never had a boat. I've spent my whole life longing for one and now finally in my 50's, I have two boats in my life. BF has a 17' motorboat that just got back in the water this past August after being a yard boat for 6 years. While I never had much interest in sailing, last summer on a whim I stopped in the yacht club in Brigantine and started asking questions. One of the members offered to take me out on his day sailer and I've been lusting after a sailboat ever since. Thanks to a very generous friend, now I have one. eeek!! |

Bartending Event at Morton's The Steakhouse To Benefit Charity
By M.M. Cloutier
Next week, Morton's The Steakhouse in downtown West Palm Beach is hosting a bartending event to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
On Tuesday (Oct. 5), Dennis Grady, CEO of the Chamber of Commerce of the Palm Beaches, and Don DeWoody, chairman of the chamber's board, will be paired with one of the restaurant's bartenders to create and serve cocktails of all kinds, including libations Grady and DeWoody conceive on their own.
The eve, from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., is part of Morton's "Prime Events at Morton's" campaign, a collection of tastings, seminars, dinners and other affairs at some of Morton's 75-plus locations around the country that aim to generate funds for Make-A-Wish, Morton's 2010 charity partner of choice.
The Make-A-Wish Foundation grants the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions.
The bartending event at Morton's The Steakhouse (777 S. Flagler Dr.) is free. All tips from the evening will be donated to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
If you'd like a nibble with your cocktail, Morton's has a bar menu with $5-$6 items, including three mini Prime cheeseburgers, three mini jumbo lump crab cakes, blue cheese fries, four mini Prime filet mignon sandwiches, and jumbo lump crab, artichoke and spinach dip with parmesan-dusted French bread crostini.
