I am mystified at the Globe's editorial decision to go with a front page story about the perpetrator of this tragic event, and in the Sunday edition no less. What part of 100 MPH do you not understand more »

Gee Dan, Why do I think that you knocked everyone over getting to the keyboard to write this? Your drool is all over the story.

Good piece. Not usual for a sports writer to cover ANOTHER sportswriter. In this case, it's very understandable. Congratulations to Jackie. Well done. more »

Here are a few of the stocks we're watching in today's trading session:
Jean Coutu Group (PJC) Inc. said it sold 72.5 million shares of Rite Aid Corp. at an average of $2.20 a share. The shares represented about 41% of Jean Coutu's Rite Aid holdings, leaving it with an 11.7% stake in Rite Aid. Separately, Desjardins said in a note it expects a dividend hike from Jean Coutu when it reports its next quarterly results.
Canada Bread Co. said it will close a Quebec bakery due to a drop in demand for the snack cakes made at the facility. The move, which will result in closure costs of about C$3.1 million, affects 74 employees.
AEterna Zentaris Inc. said it has agreed to transfer manufacturing rights and grant a manufacturing license for Cetrotide to a subsidiary of Merck KGaA. It will receive a one-time payment of about $3.2 million and certain other payments, it said.
Uni-Select Inc. said it plans a formal review of strategic alternatives for its U.S. automotive operations. It also said its U.S. automotive president and chief operation officer, William Alexander, left his position effective Tuesday.
TeraGo Inc. said it plans to introduce and build a fiber-optic service delivery platform that will complement its existing fixed wireless technology platform. It also said it has secured an additional C$27 million in senior term debt financing.

13,918 members strong
as of 25-Apr-2015
1. Senator is achieved when a Tribune who has already attained Tribune x8 status makes contact and exchanges SKCC numbers and names with 200 different SKCC Tribunes or Senators.
Note: For brevity, throughout the rest of this page the term Tribune refers to any member who holds a T or S.
2. QSOs for the Senator Award may be made at any time on any amateur band, including WARC bands. Contacts must be made using a straight key, bug, or side swipper. The SKCC Board of Directors can grant exceptions to this provision on a case-by-case basis to those with physical disabilities that prevent the use of such keys. To request an exemption, use the "Email the SKCC Board" link under the Club Contacts section of the navigation column at left.
3. Only contacts made on or after 01 August 2013 count toward the SKCC Senator Award. Neither the SKCC club call (K9SKC) nor any special-event call sign (such as K3Y) will be accepted as credit for contacts. However, you may use the FCC-assigned call of an operator who uses either of those special call signs, provided that you have not previously used that operator on the Senator application and they give you their FCC-assigned call during the QSO.
4. Any member number used on a Senator Award application may be used only once. Members are defined by their SKCC member numbers, not by their call signs, which may change over time.
5. Endorsements (up to x10) for contacting additional multiples of 200 Tribunes are available for the basic award. Endorsements for contacting 200 Tribunes on individual bands (up to x10) also are available.
The Senator Award administrator processes all applications on a PC. It is strongly suggested that the Senator Award application be used for this award and for its endorsements.
If for any reason you are unable to submit a computer-readable application, please contact the award administrator before submitting your application to discuss alternatives.
Stand-alone applications are available in two versions: a Word file and an Excel file. You can download the Word file here and the Excel file here.
1. The application must contain no fewer than the minimum number of valid QSOs required for the award or endorsement. However, it is useful to include extra QSOs on the application in case some are disqualified.
2. All call prefixes and suffixes recorded during QSOs -- i.e. /QRP, /8, /W, PJ5/, etc. -- must be removed before submitting an application. These prefixes are not part of the official call signs maintained in the membership data base.
3. If the application contains sufficient valid contacts, the award or endorsement will be issued.
A final note: The admininstrator does not save past applications, so please use a form, such as the Excel or Word form mentioned above, that will retain all of your previous Senator and endorsement QSOs. This allows the admininstrator to more easily check for duplicates or other errors. Occasionally, checking procedures may catch an error in a section of the application already approved for a previous endorsement. Just replace the marked QSO with another contact with the same operator; most of us have had several contacts with the same member. Maintaining all QSOs on one form also makes it easier for you to check for duplicate entries as your list of QSOs grows. As with the initial Senator application, be sure to use SKCC numbers and calls, when checking for dupes prior to submitting your form.
All questions about and submissions for this award and its endorsements should be sent to the Senator Award administrator, Russ Halbert, at firstname.lastname@example.com.

In truth, this rush to war is all about the fickle nature of the voter. According to a new Rasmussen poll, 42 percent of the nation's likely voters support the president's plan, while 39 oppose it and 19 are undecided. The public's support for the plan is down 3 points in a week -- and this, without even having any time to chew on the specifics. Obviously, there is no time to waste.
George W. Bush engaged in the similar scare game when pushing through his $700 billion Troubled Asset Relief Program. But whereas Bush looked like a third-grader asking mom for an advance on his allowance, Obama has awe-inspiring confidence to pretend he actually can fix a recession.
Worse, it's back to one-party rule. One set of ideas. No real deliberation. No real compromise.
Obama, of course, has a powerful enough mandate to ram through any legislation he desires. And he's even polite enough to pretend to care about Republicans' concerns. They even may continue to be invited to the White House cocktail parties. But Obama would do Republicans a huge favor by explaining that "bipartisanship" and "unity" now mean voting with the new far-left majority.
Because really, for the next two years, at the very least, all debate is over.
Due to the overwhelming enthusiasm of our readers it has become necessary to transfer our commenting system to a more scalable system in order handle the content.

Thank You!!!�Mahshid��Anita��Moe!
Japanese word for the Earth is consisting from two words: chi is 地, earth, soil, and kyu is 球 a ball.
Actually, your two language seem also consisted from two, what deos each word mean??�Also how is Arabic, Moe?
���Dia de la TIERRA!!!
Earth = F�ld
Earth day = F�ld napja
Cadur Ha-aretz
Cadur - ball
Ha - the
Aretz - land
All the Semitic languages I know the word for land/earth comes from the same root, just that certain letters get swapped in different languages:
Hebrew - Eretz - land, earth
Aramaic - Ar'aa - land, earth
Arabic - 'Ard - land, earth
I forgot, the Arabic Al Ard is the same as the Hebrew Ha-Aretz, "al" is Arabic for "the".
Dia da Terra
Earth : Bumi��
Day : Hari
Earth Day : Hari Bumi (not Bumi Hari!!)

Waiting for Rodriguez, two British girls next to us wrote a note expressing their interest in tall guys with shaved heads and included their contact information and desire to party. After security declined to give it to the tall sound-guy with a shaved head who was setting up, a photographer was able to successfully pass it on. Tall guy read it, blushed, and presented his wedding ring, lipping the words "I'm married" to the girls who promptly directed him to pass it to the 'guy with the mustache' who was setting up Rodriguez' mic. Unfortunately, it got to the wrong guy with a mustache who got a little too excited after reading the note as the two Brits were yellowing "NOOOOO", shaking their heads, and pointing to the other guy with a mustache. Tall shaved head guy stripped it from ugly mustache guy (who expressed sad face) and got the note to the correct mustache guy (One of Rodriguez' roadies) who read it, smiled, and put the note in his pocket. Hopefully he wasn't too upset that he wasn't their first choice.
Don't actually remember which portapotties this occured in. Or even which night, for that matter. (either sat or sun). I headed to the back of the portapotties to use the AC trailers but they were being cleaned out, so a few nazi yellow shirts (a guy and a girl) were standing guard all tough-like trying to keep the shitshows from forcing their way into the trailers. When at least 10 different dudes who walked back there for the trailers, but didn't want to wait in line for the portapotties, they all started peeing on the fences surrounding the trailers. This crazy yellow shirt chick kept screaming at all those dudes to stop but they would just flip her off while everyone booed this chick. Wanting to reassert her status as alpha-female, she disappeared behind an off-limits fence for about a minute, returned with a hose, and started soaking all the dudes trying to pee on the fences. She soaked about 20-30 dudes in about a minute. After all the guys had fled, she stood guard in a militant stance about 10 feet in front of the trailer, and just waited for the next wave of guys wanting to pee on the fences. None of these fucked up guys noticed her standing there brandishing her hose-cannon, and she would actually wait until a dude was already peeing (rather than a preemptive quick spray before they even started pissing) and then hose them down, giggling like the fat nazi cunt that she was. No, I did not get sprayed, but seriously, I don't think spraying down guys who have bladders about to burst is part of that cunt's job description. I can't think of a worse way to be super high on something just to immediately be brought down with a 10-second soaking by a hose.

Sounds like my kind of people.
I saw and overheard the general store food wrangler trying to call out the name "Amyz" and getting super annoyed at it. "Amy... S? Ammeezuh? Ameeze? What the fuck is this?"
pissing does not require an air conditioned trailer. just open the door and aim down. some shitheel was pissing in the corner of the portos area in lot 4 early sunday morning because he didn't want to wait the 15 fucking seconds for one to become available. i called him a fucking animal and he flipped me off. what a waste of a human being. this hose chick sounds righteous.
A friend that stayed with us went into a porta potty with a tall gay black man to snort some coke. Supposedly with no strings attached according to him. Supposedly.
i mean god forbid she does her job, right? she's probably working at least an 8 hour shift in the desert amongst a couple hundred smelly portapotties and tens of thousands of people, many of whom are intoxicated, who want to do things that she has been specifically instructed to prevent them from doing. maybe the way she handled it was wrong but really dude can you blame her?

That wasn't her M.O. She intentionally waited for these people, practically hiding the hose behind her back and making absolutely no warnings at all, to start pissing and then make their lives miserable mid-stream, all the while laughing like a hyena. Half of me was thinking "dude, that's not cool, they are just trying to take a piss, the punishment doesn't fit the crime". But I'll admit the other half of me was thoroughly entertained watching this all go down, which I suppose is why I posted in this thread. Either way, that chick needs to google "entrapment". Tell these dudes that if they piss on the fences they are going to get sprayed. Don't just stand there quietly waiting for targets for your own pleasure.

It's quite pretty.
Saturday walking at the close of the festival from Gobi, I heard 'Better, Harder, Faster, Stronger' being played on the main stage speakers as the last of the crowd left. There were quite a few people sprinting from the direction of the Sahara yelling "Come on man! I hear it! This is happening!" only to face dejection when they reached the point where they could see the mainstage was closed down. GV trolling hard.
2015 Collaborative Playlist on Spotify.
Some kid passed out cold during a main stage set (Metric maybe?) and they pulled him over the barricade and a security guy was carrying him down the production section towards the stage. His pants were coming down around his knees. Suddenly he comes to and realizes his being carried by a large man and he freaks out and jumps out of his arms, and tries to pull his pants up, but they keep hold of him and try to explain what happened and start walking him out. The look on his face when he woke up was sheer horror.
My group also got into some ridiculous ritual with some camping neighbors. As our sites were setting up on Thursday one of the neighbors was starting to get agnry about losing some poles. He got so heated he started to throw a fit and rampage through our site literally screaming at us about those goddamn tent poles. A couple minutes later his sweet girlfriend finds the poles underneath the tent where he left them. She chastises him and forces him to apologize to us all.
Minutes later, my camp buddies are recounting the story with some friends and screams out tent poles!!! That same camp site with the asshole suddenly screams back tent poles and tells us to keep doing it for the rest of the weekend to punish their idiot friend. We did and they always answered with TENT POLES to the last day.

The company will use the France refinery owned by insolvent Swiss-based refiner Petroplus to process crude oil for six months, said French President Nicolas Sarkozy.
By INTI LANDAURO
Royal Dutch Shell has signed a contract to hire the French refinery owned by insolvent Swiss-based refiner Petroplus to process crude oil for six months, French President Nicolas Sarkozy said on Friday.
"This contract isn't a definite answer," Sarkozy said. "But without this contract, the refinery was over."
Industrial machinery like the refinery cannot stay idle for too long, he said during a trip to the facility, which is located in Petit-Couronne, a town on the French northern coast.
Resuming operations at the refinery, which was gradually shut down in January, requires 50 million investment, Sarkozy said.
Shell will transfer 20 million to the refinery in advance of future payments to the refinery. The government will finance the remaining 30 million, Sarkozy said.
Petroplus, one of the largest independent European refiners, was forced to file for insolvency in late January after struggling for months with weak demand due to the economic slowdown in Europe and overcapacity amid tighter credit conditions, high crude prices and competition from Asia and the Middle East.
French and German courts have appointed administrators to handle their units of Petroplus after the Swiss-based refiner filed for protection from creditors after running out of cash, the company said earlier Thursday.
A French prosecutor is investigating whether there was wrongdoing in the insolvency process.

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

If you can wait 1 full week for shipping (maybe 2 weeks for to receive) I think you have patience for better card & better price from a better company. |
Yep same for me - got my tracking number and bundle code. Not that this is all big news to have a product that was in stock shipped to you, but I, like others, was told I was going to have to wait until March for their next shipment so I debated canceling the order. Luckily I didn't and magically it's been shipped so I'm pleased thus far that this has moved along just as I would have intended. No CS drama would have been nice though. The card better work too.
Still no shipping update or bundle code for me yet. It still says the card is 'in stock' on their website too. This waiting has been making me want to cancel for a $279 Sapphire 7950 3GB. Do you think I should wait for this 7870 to ship or spend the extra $90 on a 7950 @ NewEgg? Which is the better price point? 7950 is faster, +$90, but also has better games.

I have the honor to acquaint your Lordship that I had information about the middle of last month from Mr William Thompson, the Deputy Naval Officer at Beaufort, a small fishing Town, distance from hence between forty and fifty miles, that a Spanish snow called the Sta. Catharina, had put into Cape Look Out Bay in the greatest distress having on board the Crews of two ships, with which she had sailed in Company from the Havannah, that were stranded in their passage to Cadiz, between the Caio Largo, and Cape Florida with a Colonel, a Captain, a Lieutenant & forty odd grenadiers, making in all an addition of above One hundred men to her Company, which having soon consumed her stores, obliged her to seek a Port on this continent and that she had been brought into Cape Look Out Bay by a coasting vessel she had fallen in with at sea. He said she stood in need of provisions and water and being furnished therewith would immediately proceed on her voyage or failing to get the supplies she wanted here intended to go to Norfolk in Virginia. I told Mr Thompson that he should have brought up to me some of the principal Officers, that I might be more particularly informed of their circumstances and that I should expect one or more of them forthwith to repair to this place to give me such satisfaction, but on his representation that the Officers were invalids, that no means could be found where they were, of transporting them hither and that he was of opinion that the vessel could not be provided here with the stores she wanted and must therefore go to Virginia, I consented in that case, to dispense with their coming hither. Mr Thompson at this time informed me, that he had obtained the release of four of His Majesty's subjects, who belonged to a Vessel from Charles Town in South Carolina and had been taken on illicit trade in the Island of Cuba and were going by this Vessel to further imprisonment in Spain and that the Snow, had dismissed four or five of her hands, who had taken their route by land to Virginia. After continuing many days in expectation
of seeing some of the people from this Vessel, I received intelligence accidentally and with great surprise, that she was sailed for Spain, having secured the supplies she wanted after landing all the people, except the Troops in number about sixty five among which was a Brigadier General, a Lieut. of Horse, four Priests, an Inquisition and a Woman and that except the Brigadier General and a few others, who had been engaged by motives of inconvenience to think of coming hither, for contrary to the usage of foreigners, it appears they thought of no respect to government; they had passed in small boats, by the Inland Navigation that extends all along the coast of this Province, to a place called the North Landing on the confines of Virginia, and about 16 miles from the Town of Norfolk. Soon after I received this account, I had a visit from Brigadier General Douché, who stiles himself also Inspector General of the Military Department in Mexico who but awkwardly apologized for not seeing me sooner. I intimated to him that there was a vessel ready to sail from this Port bound to Cadiz and that I supposed and hoped he would take advantage of that conveyance; he pleaded however so strongly his recent sufferings at sea, the ill state of his health and the misery he must endure if compelled to go among the common people who had engaged their passage in the vessel I recommended that I could not help yielding to the pressing instances he made me to permit him to go to Philadelphia to recover his health before he entered upon another long voyage I took care my Lord, to advise Mr Hamilton, the commander in chief for the time being of Pennsylvania, of this foreign Officer going into his government from whose observation on his passage Hither by water, I do not apprehend any danger and I signified to him also, my opinion that the Brigadier ought not to be permitted to continue longer, than might be absolutely necessary for the recovery of his health, at Philadelphia, from whence he will find frequent opportunities of going to Spain. From the Brigadier I learned and from Mr Michael De Armida, Master and Owner of one of the wrecked vessels, that the people who had taken the route of Virginia carried with them a considerable sum of money which they believe to be in general the property of the Individuals who were in possession of it, but as the Brigadier said there was money on private accounts, although none of the King's, on board the stranded vessels and it appears by the testimony of several persons here, that the common mariners had more money than could be supposed to belong to people of that sort it may be presumed that some of it was plunder. I was induced My Lord to suspect that there had been some unfair proceeding in this case, from the conduct of the Deputy naval Officer at Beaufort, who had never notified to me the landing of these people or the departure of those who took the route of Virginia or any other circumstance after his first report of the vessel's arrival in distress and I therefore forbore to take notice of it in my last letter to your Lordship, resolving first to go to Beaufort and get what further information I should be able. I have since visited that place and after the most diligent enquiry in which I have been much assisted by Mr Berry Collector of this Port, I can only discover that the deputy Naval Officer, has been guilty of remissness towards me, as well as of error with respect to the Spanish Vessel and people, his general character, I think defends him from suspicion of fraud or ill design and indeed he is not arraigned by any of his neighbors, who I am informed look upon him invidiously and would not lose an opportunity of doing him injury. The Spanish Brigadier General made honorable mention of him to me. I have however thought it proper to represent his ignorance to his Principal and to require him to examine further his conduct on this late occasion.The irregularity that appears in this affair has given me infinite concern and mortification, at a time that the universal sickness and the repeated losses of my family have most deeply affected me. The Spaniards who went to Norfolk, are I hear safely arrived there. As far as I am able to learn, they have suffered no injury in this Province and have no just ground of discontent, but at all events I trust your Lordship will see that I am blameless in this matter.
I have very lately advice from the back country, that some violences have been committed on private individuals but that in general the people seem well disposed and sensible of the advantages of peace, order and government, lamenting the fatal influence which lately engaged them in rebellion
I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your Lordship's letter No. 3, accompanying His Majesty's order in Council for the disallowance of Two Acts of the General Assembly of this Province, passed in 1768 with the Representation of the Board of Trade
thereupon, a Duplicate of your Lordship's letter No 2, and sundry Acts of Parliament relating to the Colonies, and I have made known His Majesty's Royal disallowance of the Acts of the General Assembly by Proclamation, according to custom.

Mayor Lary Coppola was on hand for the ribbon-cutting ceremony and to officially welcome the business to the city.
"I am very glad Melinda and Shane are here," he said. "It gives people another great reason to shop in downtown Port Orchard."

Prime rib...medium rare. Snakes and jellyfish...well done!
I recently went back to the Cape (I was on vacation there last week) and took a flashover recognition course given by the Massachusetts Fire Academy. The course was given at Harwich Fire Headquarters on Tuesday, April 8th. Dave (HFD66Truck) invited me to come down on Monday night...his group was working, they were having prime rib for dinner and they had a place for me to sleep for the night (the sleep sofa in their tv room area).
I arrived at the "Deuce" (Harwich Station 2) around 6:30 PM. Dave, Lt. Tim Jacques and Boots were in the process of preparing dinner and asked me if I would mind going to Stop and Shop to pick up some fresh green beans and some beef stock. It was not a problem, and I picked up dessert while I was there (a chocolate bundt cake and vanilla ice cream). Dave said that he would go, but they had a "drive in medical".
Let me tell you, they eat well at the "Deuce"! Tim brought in the prime rib and all the trimmings and it was cooked to perfection! we had coffee, dessert and good conversation for the rest of the evening. Two of Harwich's finest (one of them was Dave's brother in law) stopped by for coffee.
Everyone turned in between 11:30 and midnight. The sleep sofa was very comfortable, and I drifted into "lala land" quickly. The Duece's crew was detailed to a mutual aid run to Brewster for a reported MVA/rollover accident on Route 6 (the Mid-Cape highway) a little after 5:00 AM. I asked if I could "ride along", and went to the call with them.
After getting back from the call, the TV's were turned onto the news for the war updates and I drifted back for a few more winks. They went to another medical call around 7:15, so I made a couple of pots of coffee and waited for them to return. The next duty group came on. I waited for Dave to come back from the bone box call and took him out to breakfast at Bonatt's restaurant in Harwich Center. After breakfast, we headed for Harwich HQ for the course.
If you ever have the opportunity to take a flashover recognition course, do it! It was fascinating, informative and one hell of a learning experience. "Snakes" and "jellyfish" are two of the phenomena that occur as fire reaches it's rollover/pre flashover stage as the fire gasses in the simulator slowly ignite... all you can hear is the rhythmic sound of SCBA units... the fire gases ignite silently and flow in slow motion over your head. Out of the three groups that entered the flashover simulator, I think that the group that Dave was assigned to had the best fires in the flashover unit. I was in the second group and we were assigned the cleanup detail when Dave's group was done. There was smoke pouring out of the vents and at one point during the demonstration, the fire gasses in the smoke coming out of the flashover unit flashed outside of the simulator! Dave's bunker coat got a little discoloration on one sleeve and melted a bit of trim from the heat, but he did have this huge smile on his face as he emerged from the flashover unit!"The education of a firefighter and the continued education of a firefighter is what makes "real" firefighters. Continuous skill development is the core of progressive firefighting. We learn by doing and doing it again and again, both on the training ground and the fireground."
Lt. Ray McCormack, FDNY

Nyah; Nyah!
Big food; big fire. Does it get any better than that?
Gonz; you make me jealous.
I have been to 2 flashover simulators at different fire schools in the area. Let me tell you, AWESOME!!!! It is so amazing to watch this going on over your head. You watch in awe at the same time you feel a great sense of respect for fire when you see this going on. If you haven't seen it, it is hard to describe. The gases "dance" around the ceiling and slowly ignite in this this wonderful display, almost hypnotic in a way. Every firefighter should be able to see this and recognize the dangers that it warns about. Whenever we get a house to burn for training I always try to show this to my students. If you ever get a chance to see this, it will make a world of difference in your understanding of what is going on above when you come in crawling on your face.
And yes, Gonzo, I'm jealous too!

A-League: HAL 7 (2011 - 2012 Season)
'Mariners take home Plate as Sydney make play-offs'
Central Coast Mariners booked their place in the 2012-13 AFC Champions League competition on March 25 as winners of the Hyundai A-League Premiership by downing Wellington Phoenix 2-1 at Westpac Stadium in front of 9,802 fans.
The win confirmed Graham Arnolds team as Premiers Plate winners for the 2011-12 season, and was earned thanks to goals either side of half-time from John Sutton - in first half stoppage time - and Bernie Ibini-Isei, his goal coming seven minutes into the second half.
Leo Bertos reduced the deficit with a free-kick nine minutes from time, but it was a rare highlight for the home fans in captain Andrew Durantes 100th game for the club, whose play-off opponents were determined by the result of the New South Wales derby.
Sydney FC were the other big winners on the final weekend of round-robin action, their emphatic first half display at the Allianz Stadium paving the way for a 3-2 victory over Newcastle Jets which catapulted them into fifth place on the table.
It was the end of the season for whoever lost this match, and having seemingly been out of contention a couple of weeks ago, Sydney continued their late-season resurgence in front of 14,494 fans, who saw Bruno Cazarine head the home team in front in the twelfth minute.
Their advantage lasted fourteen minutes, but Michael Bridges equaliser for Newcastle prompted a swift riposte from Joel Chianese, who struck twice in three minutes inside the next seven minutes to propel Sydney to a 3-1 lead which they rarely looked like relinquishing.
That situation changed dramatically six minutes from time when Nikolai Topor-Stanley headed against Sydneys crossbar, and Jobe Wheelhouse, following in, headed home the rebound to set up a grandstand finish, with Newcastle knowing that a draw would be enough to see them in the play-offs.
But parity proved to be beyond them, Jeremy Brockie squandering a late chance to complete the visitors comeback, much to the delight of the Sydney fans, a few of whom will doubtless grace Westpac Stadium when they visit Wellington for the first match in the play-off series on Friday evening from 8pm.
Perth Glory twice came from behind to claim third place by downing Melbourne Victory 4-2 in front of 9,724 fans at NIB Stadium, thanks to the one-man goalscoring machine that is Shane Smeltz.
He bagged all four goals for the home team to become the most prolific marksman in A-League history, with 62 to his name. But the first of his latest batch only came about while Melbourne were still celebrating Carlos Hernandezs opener half-way through the first half.
Mark Milligans goal on the stroke of half-time for the visitors left Perth with it all to do in the second spell, but Smeltz was well and truly in the mood, and after equalising for a second time just three minutes into the second half, he potted a penalty just after the hour mark to put his team in front, before curling home the clincher three minutes later to book a home play-off against Melbourne Heart next Sunday.
They made it six games unbeaten when held to a 1-1 draw at Hindmarsh Stadium, despite having the better of proceedings against an Adelaide United team for whom Sergio Van Dijk opened the scoring from the penalty spot eight minutes before half-time.
Eli Babalj scored Melbournes long-overdue equaliser half-way through the second half as the play-offs contenders finally got the better of Adelaide goalkeeper Mark Birighitti, whose efforts throughout were greatly appreciated by the 6411-strong crowd, who saw the home team avoid the wooden spoon with this hard-earned point.
With the Premiership Plate having been won, and all other aspects of the league decided, the final game of the round saw Queensland pride at stake as reigning A-League champions Brisbane Roar visited Skilled Park to take on Gold Coast United in what is likely to be the final game in the brief history of the home team.
And, as they have done all season, Brisbane came with the late mail to clinch the points, coming from behind to prevail 2-1 in front of 6,102 fans, who saw Uniteds Daniel Bowles break the deadlock on the half-hour.
Brisbane, who rested a handful of regular starters for this match, werent to be denied, with a couple of the young replacements, Nick Fitzgerald and George Lambadaridis, turning the game around in the visitors favour, the latter netting the winner with a minute left on the clock.
So to next weeks finals series play-offs, with Wellington kicking things off at home to Sydney from 8pm on Friday night at Westpac Stadium. Saturday evening sees Brisbane entertaining Central Coast at Suncorp Stadium in the first leg of their clash, while Perth Glory welcome Melbourne Heart to NIB Stadium on Sunday evening. The Grand Final is due for Sunday 22 April, 2012.
This is the final round review for the 2011-12 Hyundai A-League season no. 7 - hope youve enjoyed them!
Details: Hyundai A-League, weekend 25 (games now up to 25 each - League season complete):
Adelaide United 1 FC (Sergio Van Dijk (37 pen)) - Melbourne Heart FC 1 (Eli Babalj (68)); HT 1-0
By Jeremy Raune, from NZ

The Season 7 aggregate was reached playing 30 less matches than the previous season with 135 matches being played across 25 weeks compared to 165 matches played in season 6.
Almost 50,000 fans attended matches in Wellington, Gold Coast, Perth, Adelaide and Sydney across the weekend to ensure the new mark was set.
The Season 7 average regular season attendance of 10,490 was bolstered by significant increases in Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney, Central Coast, Newcastle and Wellington.
The Hyundai A-League 2011/12 season also saw some increases in other key areas including goals, TV audience and memberships.
Season 7 saw an average of 2.7 goals per match, watched by a TV audience that has increased by 46% from last season. Add to this the 23% increase in Club Members and the Hyundai A-Leagues growth and potential is gaining momentum.
The league has also seen some decreases, most notably in the incidence of red card offences which has seen a significant 21 per cent drop with only 27 red cards being issued in the 2011/12 regular season".

"It was so easy to personalise this invite. We chose the colour, text and images and then it's all reviewed by a designer to ensure there are no mistakes. When they arrived we were so pleased with the result, they were perfect and exactly what we had chosen. The colour and quality of the paper and design was fantastic. Very pleased and would highly recommend."
"Searched hi and low for the perfect invitations for our traditional/formal wedding. Ordered these in blue and they are stunning!"
"If your names are long, there will be no problem fitting them on this invitation. You will love this. The paper quality is nice and thick. The thermography printing was beautiful and perfect. I am so glad that I ordered these invitations. I ordered eggplant and the color is very deep. Really pleased with everything at Wedding Paper Divas."
"I ordered the dark purple colored font, they looked classy and elegant for our wedding invites for a winery wedding, now I'm just wrapping them into heart shaped doily and a piece of lace ribbon to finish them beautifully."
"The quality of the paper and printing is exceptional! We used navy ink for the invite as well as the return card envelopes. The photos do not do the embossing detail justice. We ordered an embosser for the return address, which completed the package. The invites were simply stunning and we received so many compliments on the elegance and simplicity!"

Diary of A DCWV Gal
I am so excited to start this blog and share everything that I love about DCWV!!! Paper scrap, hybrid & digital...I love it all and I can't wait to show you all of my "big ideas"!! I am also so excited to share a little of my life with you too. A "work at home" mommy who loves this industry SO MUCH! So here is a little about little ol' me!
I grew up in Dallas, Texas and found my love of scrapbooking at the age of 12 when I received a Christmas gift of scrapbooking supplies and an album from a cousin in Utah. Since then, the last 15 years have been documented in dozens of scrapbooks lining my living room shelves! In 2000, I moved to Provo, Utah to attend Brigham Young University where I received a bachelor's degree in Advertising/Marketing. Working as a bank teller as a newlywed and recent graduate, I met and became friends with Nancy Hill, founder of DCWV. After a 2-year friendship, I finally worked up enough nerve to tell Nancy about my passion of scrapbooking. Instantly Nancy said, "Well, turn in your notice. Wouldn't you rather be scrapbooking instead of working at a bank?" And that is where it all began! I have been blessed to be a part of the DCWV family since February 2004. I have designed projects for QVC, HSN, dozens of books and many magazine publications. More recently, I have discovered the digital scrapping world and am thrilled at how much I truly love it. I love having an outlet of my creativity without having to mess up my studio! And scrapping in bed on my laptop is the life! My true passion has been the opportunity to share my love of scrapbooking and my love of DCWV by teaching classes all over the country and the incredible people I have met along the way. Other than scrapbooking, I enjoy cooking, organizing and cleaning anything, shopping online, and drinking Diet Coke. And there is nothing better than coming home to my house of boys, husband, Kevin, Troy (5), Colt (3) and Jack the Pug.

I had this drug in the last clinical trials before it was approved. I only had a few side effects like skin inflammation and tiredness. It did cause me to have low platelets. But, that is managed with Promacta. I would highly recommend this drug!!!!!!!

A café-restaurant comes with the promise of delicious vegetarian delights and an ambience with a quaint charm
We are at Cup O' Cafe in Purusaiwalkam. The sprawling white mansion that houses this cafe-restaurant is 120 years old... so ancient it has probably never heard the words pasta and lasagna before. Yet they exist peacefully, giving diners a blend of the contemporary and the classic.
A flight of steps leads to the cafe. A part of it almost feels like a haveli in Rajasthan. The interiors are done up in purple with a collection of masks and paraphernalia ranging from gramophones to cameras adorning the walls. For those who love to bask in the sunlight, there's outdoor seating. As for us, we choose a table indoors, nearest to the air conditioner and farthest from the sunlight streaming in through the glass doors.
Lots to choose from
The cheerful waiter hovers around for our orders, but the extensive menu leaves us indecisive, like children in a candy shop. Eventually, the decision is made. It was a tossup among a Ferrero Rocher milk shake, a green apple iced soda and a strawberry jelly based drink. The first won. Chocolate-based things have a strange way of influencing ones decisions, don't they? The shake is delicious. It's not too thick, has a silky texture and a generous portion of crushed Rocher. I start guzzling it down ravenously, and put it aside only when the falafels arrive. It's a good thing my friend accompanying me is on a gluten-free diet so I don't have to share it with her. She's delicately sipping on masala chai and downing spoonfuls of corn salad slathered in mayonnaise.
Crunchy salad
The salad's fresh, crunchy and probably the healthiest snack we ordered. Of course, she tries stealing a sip of my drink, but a rap on her knuckles ensures she is back to her salad. "I can have falafel. It's made of chick peas," she announces after scanning through the menu and running a search on her phone.
For myself, I order a Spizzy Cheese lasagna. Being a hard-core non-vegetarian, I don't expect much from the lasagna. I mean, how good can something without chunks of meat be? Much to the delight of my vegetarian friends, I'm proved wrong. The lasagna is perfect, and I can't seem to find fault with it. It comes with a stuffing of cottage cheese, jalapeno and spicy sauce.
Desi twist
The more I exclaim how good it is, the more my-gluten free friend sulks. "The falafels are excellent," she retorts as she effortlessly polishes them off. I grab the last one, dunk it in the green chutney, and follow it up with a sip of my shake. It's fiery, crispy with a desi taste to it.
Finally, my fellow diner gives in and digs her spoon into the lasagne. I pretend to look away, but she's actually being good and only has mouthfuls of the cottage cheese stuffing.
Before we know it, the plates have been stripped clean. With our tummies full, we now lean back and take in the beauty of this manor from the last century. It surely was well worth the drive to Purusaiwalkam.

When I found out about Rep. Todd Akin's (R-Mo.) colossal interview fail on Sunday, it wasn't on CNN, Fox or MSNBC — it was on Facebook. Even pals who never tune into the news or follow politics were sharing this story like crazy, if only because they were aghast at his deep ignorance about an important women's health issue. Basically, the politician appeared in a television interview, (mis)stating that "legitimate rape" rarely results in pregnancy because somehow, women's lady parts can magically "shut that whole thing down."
If you somehow haven't heard about this, believe me — I'm not making this up. Here's proof:
So epic was this gaffe that the clip went viral, sparking criticism and outrage that compelled Akin to "kinda/sorta" recant, claiming that he misspoke. What's worse, at least for this Missouri congressman, was that he was the favorite in a senate race at the time.
Twitter was red-hot after this debacle, even giving rise to a new hashtag — #LegitimateRape — and an account of the same name. On Facebook, people were gobsmacked and shared the story in huge numbers. The story spread so fast and so far, it was stunning. Before social media, something like this could take days, weeks, even months to form into a bona fide career-ending controversy. Now Akin has practically been disavowed, with the GOP urging him to give up the election — all after just a single day. (Side note: It might've been even faster, had it not happened over the weekend.)
It's hard to pinpoint what the worst part of this is. Was it that he believed this incredibly inane tidbit, that he had the incredibly poor judgment to talk about it on television (which would surely yield a video that would set the Internet on fire), or that, following the swell of shock and anger streaming out from a very vocal public on social media, he could think such a lame apology was appropriate?
While blogs might postulate about how Akin might redeem himself, at least online if nowhere else — because, really, who would give this guy another platform? — there are some things that you can't come back from. The web does not forgive easily, and indeed, it doesn't forget.

UPDATE: Stephen won and has been contacted.
I'm a little amazed that there aren't a lot more plastic figurines for sale - - action figures have been priced out of impulse buy territory, and meanwhile every wargaming miniature kickstarter seems to raise tons of money. Simple plastic minis based on God of Blades would have sold like gangbusters.
Anyway, Toy Boarders are very cool - - $6 plus shipping for a bag of 24, featuring 8 different poses.
I also have one bag to give away. To win, simply comment on this post, and leave your email so I can contact you if you win. USA only, one comment per person.

Plastic Skateboarders Giveaway
35 comments:
Agreed, I've supported 3 or 4 Kickstarters for simple molded plastic toys, it is being done and done well. I think the days of assuming you know your idea will sell and going into production without croud-sourcing are coming to an end.
I keep thinking of how awesome Mattel's Masters of the Universe Classics line could be if they would just look more closely at this model.
Anyhoo, would love a bag of these dudes.
giantdrunkenrobot @ gmail . comJohn, in regards to seeing more molded plastic figures, the old school (Star Wars riff-offs) TimMee Galaxy Laser Team figures are back in production. I bought a pack last fall--even comes with a couple of starfighters.
I have a space yeti watching over my desk at this very moment!some cool no-articulation plastic figurines you can buy

Why Read This Report
In a survey of 287 customer experience decision-makers from large US firms, 91% said that customer experience would be either very important or critical to their 2008 efforts — a significant jump over results in a similar survey last year. We also found that customer experience is equally important across larger and smaller firms. While customer experience is increasing in importance, less than half of the respondents have a senior executive in charge of customer experience across products and channels and a single set of customer feedback scores that are used across the company. The two major obstacles identified by these firms are the lack of a clear strategy and the lack of cooperation across organizations. Given the importance of customer experience in 2008, we recommend that firms infuse the voice of the customer, assign a customer experience executive leader, and chart a course toward Experience-Based Differentiation (EBD).US $ 499

It's nearly snow-time in Europe! All you need to know about the ski season ahead
The start of the ski season is just around the corner - and it's been snowing heavily across the Alps. Here's the pick of where to go for all abilities.
So far, so snowy: Early dumps of snow have been seen across the Alps
La Tania in the Three Valleys has doorstep skiing, good nursery slopes in the village and even better ones reached by gondola. British-run New Generation (skinewgen.com) heads my list of ski schools here. Chalet Marmau is a comfortable modern chalet with ten en suite bedrooms just above the village centre, from £884. Le Ski (01484 548 996, leski.com).
Kühtai near Innsbruck is the near perfect resort for first-time skiers. Snow cover here is reliable, the runs are gentle and scenic — and you never have to walk far carrying your skis. A ski pack that includes six-day lift pass, equipment rental and tuition costs £369. Four-star Sporthotel Kühtai with full board from £749. Crystal Ski (0871 231 2256, crystalski.co.uk).
Easy access to the snow: La Tania in France has doorstep skiing - perfect for beginners
Cervinia in the Italian Aosta Valley has snow-sure skiing and lots of easy runs. The three Italian ski schools are excellent. Biggest plus point here is that by the end of the first week you'll get a tremendous sense of achievement by completing the five-mile blue Ventina run. Chalethotel Dragon from £699. Inghams (01483 791111, inghams.co.uk).
Arinsal in Andorra is the pick of European budget resorts for complete beginners. It's got easy slopes and is linked to Pal. Both have excellent schools that are used to teaching British novices. Three-star Hotel Micolau from £499 B&B, beginner ski pack including six-day lift pass, equipment rental, and tuition £204. Thomson Ski (0871 971 0578, thomsonski.co.uk).
The pretty village of Alpbach in the Austrian Tirol
- Monarch Airlines (monarch.co.uk) has introduced flights to Munich, Friedrichshafen, Innsbruck, and Grenoble from selected UK airports including Gatwick, Luton, Manchester, Birmingham and Leeds Bradford. Prices from £34pp one-way.
- Sno (020 8133 8899, sno.co.uk) is an important internet-savvy newcomer as a specialist ski travel agency.
- Pretty little Alpbach is now linked to neighbouring Auffach and Niederau to form the Ski Juwel area (skijuwel.com).
- Avoriaz in France completes its makeover with the opening of Aquariaz, a giant new water park, the highest in Europe.
Neat feet: New gadget Resqski can help you retrieve lost skis in snow
- Iconic apres-ski bar La Folie Douce opens in Meribel. It already has branches in Val d'Isere and Val Thorens.
- La Cordee des Alpes (hotelcordee.com) is the first of a new wave of five-star hotels for Verbier. W Hotel (verbierresidences.com) The Pot Luck Club restaurant takes over the basement of the new-look Farinet après-ski complex and the Casbah nightclub replaces the old Coco Club.
- NASA says this is the best time for seeing the northern lights in 50 years. Ski Safari (skisafari.com) is offering packages to Colorado resorts via Reykjavik with Icelandair. Stopover allows you to bathe in the Blue Lagoon and catch the lights before heading for Vail or Aspen.
- Nevica (nevica.com), the colourful British clothing brand of the Eighties and Nineties is back in the shops this year after an absence of more than a decade.
- Gadget of the year has to be Resqski (resqski.com), a cunning new electronic device that finds lost skis in deep snow and can save you minutes or even hours of exhausting digging.
Morillon, little more than an hour's drive from Geneva, is a charming medieval village in the huge Grand Massif ski area that includes Flaine, Les Carroz, and Samoens. The ESF Village des Enfants cares for children aged from six months to ten years. Le Morillon is a family-run hotel with a reputation for fine cuisine. Self-drive from £568 half-board, including Eurotunnel. Peak Retreats (0844 576 0123, peakretreats.co.uk)
Reberty is the smart end of Les Menuires with lots of comfortable ski-in, ski-out chalets and easy access into the lift system towards Val Thorens, Meribel, and St Martin de Belleville. Chalet Genevieve sleeps 20 with a complete range of childcare facilities. From £449 half-board, travel not included. Family Ski Company (01684 540 333, familyski.co.uk).
La Rosiere near Bourg-St-Maurice is linked to La Thuile in Italy. Together they provide almost 100 miles of family-friendly skiing. The ESF here is run by a British ski instructor. Le Lodge Hemera is a new four-star apartment complex with pool and spa — from £291pp self-catering in a two-bedroom apartment, based on four sharing, Eurotunnel included. Ski Collection (0844 576 0175, skicollection.co.uk)
Les Gets is a pretty, unspoilt village in the massive Portes du Soleil with no fewer than three British ski schools. Our favourite is Bass (britishskischool.com). La Chaumiere chalet complex is just off the village centre and within an easy walk to the lifts. From £679 per adult, first child aged two to four years stays free. Esprit Ski (01483 791 900, espritski.com).
Arabba, in Italy is the best base for accessing some of the more challenging skiing in the otherwise predominantly 'blue' Sella Ronda region. It's ideal for those looking for high mileage, outstanding scenery and superb lunch spots. Chalet Luka sleeps 12 in comfort and is a couple of minutes' walk from the village centre. From £399. Ski Total (01483 791 933, skitotal.com).
Sauze d'Oulx is part of the Milky Way area that straddles the frontier with France between Turin and Briancon. A generation ago, it had a reputation as a budget youth destination, where the quantity and quality of the lager far outweighed those of the lift system. It's returned to the attractive medieval farming village it once was, with tons of good skiing. Hotel Chalet Faure from £729. Inghams (01483 791111,inghams.co.uk).
Laax is Switzerland's best-kept secret, a snowy glacial ski area with 130 miles of well-linked skiing that appeals to all standards. It attracts a young, crowd and the après-ski is club-cool, far-removed from the standard Germanic eurotrash formula. Rocksresort is a minimalist and stylish apartment complex, from £195 for four sharing a two-bedroom apartment, self drive. Erna low (0844 879, ernalow.co.uk).
Val d'Isere, combined with the linked ski area of Tignes, remains a dominant resort with an extraordinary amount of varied terrain. This season, chalet specialist YSE has taken over the 24-room Hotel Les Chardons in the village centre. Accommodation includes eight single rooms with no supplement. From £430. YSE (01935 816550, yseski.co.uk).
Verbier, in Switzerland, is expensive and you need an economical dinner-inclusive package to bring down the basic cost. The off-piste — and the nightlife — is some of the most challenging in Europe. The Napoli chalet sleeps six and is by the main Medran lift station. From £279, travel not included, with the excellent Powder White (020 8877 8888, powderwhite.com).
St Anton is one of the top five ski resorts in the world and maintains its position by continually reinventing itself. These days the village is cool and chic with minimalist designer hotels and outstanding restaurants, the mountain's just as tough and testing as ever, while the snow record is superb. Hotel Montjola is VIP's new venture here, a four-star hotel with 33 bedrooms. From £849. VIP (0844 557 3119, vip-chalets.com).
Chamonix and neighbouring Argentiere are home to some of the steepest and most exciting skiing in the world. To get the best out of the resort you need an expert local guide. Roland Stieger (rolandstieger.com) is the one to have. Chalet Bonne Zarre is a contemporary barn conversion for eight. From £2,900 for the whole chalet, self-catered, accommodation only. B&B and catered packages with transfers included are available. Nomadic Ski (020 7043 8951, nomadicski.com).
Revelstoke in British Columbia is sensational. It has the longest lift-served vertical drop in North America as well as superb heli-skiing and cat-skiing. If you love powder it's not to be missed. Ski Safari (01273 224060, skisafari.com) Sandman Inn, from £1,089pp, room only accommodation.
All prices above are per person based on two people sharing a double or twin room. Unless otherwise stated they include flights, transfers, and half-board accommodation.

Anyone who has kept hens knows that these unattractive creatures make a point of brutality to any among them sick or weak. Some other 'social' animals share this antisocial tendency. The human species has a wide pattern of response to distress, but under the influence of moral or religious pressures, or of medical fancies, it is as capable as hens of behaving badly to those least able to withstand unkindness. The story of organised care and welfare includes a large number of instances of what intrinsically appear as policies of systematic mental or physical cruelty.

Protectionism in 1926
October 9th, 2012 at 12:00 pm by David FarrarThis image is from the National Library.
Interesting to see the same arguments then, that we still get today. Some are still in the 1920s though, with the Greens policy being to retain or impose tariffs to stop "unfair" competition. They also advocate "Support the option of using an across-the-board tariff to address balance of payments problems".
China and India has delivered hundreds of millions out of poverty thanks to the reduction of trade barriers and opening up their economies, yet the Greens still support tariffs and protectionism.
