Sue Eckstein was born in Turkey in 1959. She studied English Literature at Durham University and then went on to work in overseas development for many years, firstly as a teacher in Sri Lanka and then as VSO programme manager in the UK and The Gambia. She is now a lecturer in Clinical and Biomedical Ethics at Brighton and Sussex Medical School. She is the author of The Cloths of Heaven, of the play The Tuesday Group, and three radio plays for BBC Radio 4.
Here is Sue's Tuesday Top Ten:
The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett
My very favourite book as a child -- I had an edition with beautiful Arthur Rackham illustrations. A wonderful story of redemption, with a feisty and not always likeable heroine whom I greatly admired.
Middlemarch by George Eliot
I love the complexity and the density of this book and the wonderful characterisation. And I love the big historical and sociological themes that Eliot tackles.
Tales of the City by Armistead Maupin
I re-read all the novels in this series every few years when I need cheering up. I think the tone and structure of my own novel was very much influenced by them. I love the books' humour and pathos and the way the characters come in and out of the novels.
A Fine Balance by Rohinton Mistry
A deeply sad, but perfectly crafted, novel where you care so much for some of the characters that the ending is almost unbearable. It is also hugely informative about a particular period in Indian history.
The Future Homemakers of America by Laurie Graham
A funny, moving, upbeat novel about friendship between a group of US Air force wives and a Norfolk villager they encounter on their first posting. Another book I re-read when times get tough.
Tom's Midnight Garden by Philippa Pearce
A magical book which I loved as a child and which first made me realise that old people were once young and could quite possibly have lead interesting lives.
My Traitor's Heart by Rian Malan
Written by an Afrikaaner journalist it is about much more than apartheid -- it's about brutality and madness and race and reportage.
The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver
An epic novel set in the Congo. An extraordinary evocation of place -- even more extraordinary given that Barbara Kingsolver wrote it from memory and research.
Wide Sargasso Sea by Jean Rhys
The story of the mad woman in the attic from Jane Eyre. You can never think of Mr Rochester in the same way once you've read this book.
A Prayer for Owen Meaney by John Irving
I love this book so much that I had to leave a reading group after a couple of people said they didn't really like it. John Irving at his very best.

Web analytics bites into a 'cross-channel cookie'
Web analytics software has come a long way from simple traffic-counting tools. Applications are beginning to help businesses service customers across multiple channels.
According to a new report from Forrester Research, Web analytics technologies are rapidly evolving from simple programs designed to measure online performance into critical business-facing applications.

The latest survey released by Cambridge, Mass.-based Forrester predicts significant growth for the Web analytics space this year. The study, "Why Web Site Analytics Matter," forecasts that organizations will spend $205 million on the tools in 2003, which would represent 15% to 20% growth over 2002.
While the market remains relatively small compared with traditional CRM analytics software, Forrester principal analyst and report author Bob Chatham said the Web measurement applications sector is poised for takeoff.
"This is a boom we've talked about for years, and it has always been 18 months out," Chatham said. "But with the tools reaching users today, companies are being armed with loads of great data and the ability to do something with it immediately."
Chatham said the greatest short-term potential for Web analytics lies in the ability to produce results not just related to online commerce or service, but across multiple business channels. An example might be a Java-based tagging system that generates customer interaction responses for both Web-based and call center applications; such a tool could be built using emerging standards like VoiceXML.
"Companies are beginning to talk about the 'cross-channel cookie,' allowing real-time customer identification across a range of channels, not just the Web. It is improved analytics software that allows for this," Chatham said.
In terms of driving immediate return on investment, Chatham said companies should recognize that the opportunity to cut customer service costs using Web analytics-based systems is often underestimated. He said that many organizations failed at initial efforts to create online customer self-service, largely because the analytical technology available to support applications was immature. However, the rapid evolution in Web analytics tools lets companies deploy applications that are now more powerful than most users need, Chatham said.
To better leverage the software, Chatham advises organizations to "learn to think analytically" and design experiments that offer clues regarding how customers respond to various forms of interaction, such as self-service or automated marketing campaigns.
Chatham is also expecting that this will be a year for major vendor consolidation in the Web analytics space. At least 26 vendors are currently marketing applications, but this number will shrink drastically as larger players rise, he said. Among the companies Chatham sees as Web analytics market leaders are Coremetrics Inc., Omniture Inc. and WebSideStory Inc., all of which Chatham believes will grow significantly during the next 12 months.

I'd like to see the list of games they included. If the Wii had as much 'shovelware' as everyone makes out, surely that would have dragged the scores down somewhat?I'm not saying other consoles don't have shovelware either. I'm actually quite surprised by this though. Given how the internet feels about EA, I'd have thought they in particular would be lower down.
Simmer down... it's only been 7 minutes. =P Uh-oh. You reported Nintendo placing 4th in something and not 1st... **stern look**... tsk tsk! But for real - I'm gonna have to add that Xenoblade Chronicles to my "Wii games to play" list. I've heard nothing but great things. Cool read - thanks!
Sony ranks number one in console makers that have to lay off employees and sell buildings. So what was your point again?

I'd choose that boat over one with absolutely no improvements since it was built.
This is a very good point. I've been scouting out what it would take to recover the existing cushions. The foam is good but the covers are fugly and worn. And also, getting a decent set of vberth cushions. I contacted catalina and they don't do covers anymore. A new set run in the neighborhood of $3K. I did get the name of a woman who does custom cushions. Even comes out to the boat to measure, etc. Will be talking with her later this week. As for other things. You know, important sailing stuff. Have received opinions from four sailors and they all say my standing and running rigging is fine. And yes, if I did trade up, I could probably work on the engine. I used to rebuild old VW bug engines as a past time back in the day. ;-p

This. Actually, I met a couple who advised getting a zodiac or similar for puttering around the estuary. They said they use theirs to go over to Jack London square as well as hitting various yacht club events along the estuary. Another thing I noticed. People use their dinghies, as opposed to footing it on the docks, to visit each other. I've seen situations where a couple will be sitting on the back of their boat, with 3 or 4 dinghies parked around them, visiting, singing, and pretty much having a great time. It's a rather interesting social phenomenon, imo. Anyway, that couple said a dinghy is a must have for short trips to local establishments. I have also toyed with the idea of getting a sailing dinghy. There are a few (
RS, open bic, sunfish, that sort of thing
) that look quite tempting.

You may fret a bit over things at first but in no time she'll start to feel like something you can pretty easily man handle around.
Yeah, my worry comes more from the fact that I really need to learn how to sail first. At which point, I'll have a better idea of what I might want should I decide to trade up.
The idea of trading up, is of course, all pie in the sky, way future. At this time, my setup is comfy. In fact, I just picked up an ENO hammock for lazy in the sun reading days. :-)

Josh Eden Opens Ten Ten
Shorty's .32's Josh Eden isn't letting a spot of snow get in the way of his business expansion plans: Yesterday, he officially opened Ten Ten, his new Asian takeout joint in Kips Bay. Eden, who opened his first, oddly punctuated restaurant three years ago in Soho, collaborated with Sally Wu, a fashion designer, to open his new place, located at 413 Second Avenue. The restaurant offers a menu of salads, buns, noodles, and dumplings, all made available in biodegradable versions of the ubiquitous Chinese takeout box.

Rob Bolden's playing status unclear
Updated: October 26, 2010, 5:57 PM ET
Associated Press
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. -- Uncertainty rules at quarterback for Penn State.
Freshman starter Rob Bolden needs more tests Wednesday on a possible head injury suffered last week against Minnesota Golden Gophers to determine if he'll be available for Saturday night's contest against Michigan Wolverines.
Coach Joe Paterno said Tuesday that Matt McGloin will compete with Kevin Newsome, who has a minor left knee injury, in an open competition to start if Bolden can't go.

The Best of Ally McBeal
"I've been searchin' my soul tonight... I know there's so much more to life..." If you're starting to hum the theme tune to a certain late-nineties television show about the life of a diminutive lawyer, you'll understand that this album's opening track is as much a time capsule as it is a pop song. Everything there was to love (and love to hate) about Ally McBeal is summed up as singer and pianist Vonda Shepard works her way through "Searchin' My Soul." Fans will doubtless remember Shepard's regular appearances at Ally's local piano bar.
Merry Christmas: Christmas Classics - The Yule Edition Starring Mariah Carey
This DVD features classic holiday scenes and music sung by the great Mariah Carey. The front of the DVD is colorful and has a picture of Carey in a Santa suit. It also shows you one of the scenes you can enjoy while listening to the songs. The songs are a mix of traditional and more contemporary pieces.
Trailer Park (Legacy Edition)
I was twenty and living in Austin when I first heard Beth Orton. She laid the soundtrack to my existential search for love and self and meaning. Trailer Park is the kind of record you listen to while laying on your bed, questioning your life, your love, or playing against the background in a movie scene where you walk along the railroad tracks, hands in your pocket during a particularly emotional moment.

Dr. Jenny Tonge (Richmond Park): Like the rest of the House, I welcome the White Paper, which is being produced after 20 years. I welcome also the emphasis that the White Paper--after much consultation, on which I congratulate the Government--places on my chief concerns: primary education, health and welfare of women, and women's access to health and family planning services. I suspect, however, that the White Paper is strong on words and weak on action. I am very worried by the number of times that the word "encouraged" is used and by how little commitment there is to establishing processes to put proposals into practice.
The White Paper announces that there will be a welcome end to the aid and trade provision, which achieved such notoriety under the previous Government. So far, however, the signs have not been encouraging. The Government's ethical foreign policy sits uncomfortably with arms contracts recently negotiated with Indonesia. [Hon. Members: "Ask a question."] Surely we should be leading the world in reducing tied aid. I was disturbed to note that, in Montserrat, aid was being used to employ a British contractor.
Madam Speaker:
Order. I must call the hon. Lady to order. She is not required now to make all the comments that she is making. Back Benchers, too, are not required now to make comments. The exchange between Front Benchers took 30 minutes. As many hon. Members would like to ask a question, I will have to have brisk questions to the Minister if they are to be called. I know that the
Dr. Tonge:
Thank you very much, Madam Speaker; I misunderstood the purpose of the statement.
I should like to say--[Hon. Members: "Ask a question."] This is a question. I have every confidence in the Secretary of State--if she is able--and in her Department to deliver the aims of the White Paper. I warn her, however, that the road to hell is paved with good questions. Does she carry the rest of the Government--the Department of Trade and Industry, the Treasury and all other Departments--with her, or not?
Clare Short:
The hon. Lady is a new hon. Member, and we will therefore have to be a little patient. I know, however, that her intentions are good. I forgot to reply to the right hon. Member for Eddisbury (Sir A. Goodlad) on family planning, but she has also raised the issue. Almost half the people in the world do not have access to family planning, which is a grave breach of their rights and ability to raise healthy and educated children. Our commitment to universal basic health care includes a commitment to reproductive health care and to an expansion in provision for everyone in the world, so that people can make their own decisions about their own family size.
I should explain to the hon. Member for Richmond Park (Dr. Tonge) that a White Paper is an analysis and a statement of permanent Government intent. We are currently engaged in the process of adjusting all our staffing and budgeting, and big amounts of money are moving around within my portfolio. A White Paper is meant to be a long-lasting statement of policy purpose. Implementation follows, and she will see it.
I hope that the Select Committee on International Development will examine the tied aid issue. There is so much muddle in the debate; it would be helpful if everyone--including the World Development Movement--learned the meaning and particulars of tied aid and how best to make progress. The hon. Lady was misinformed on that matter, also.
White Papers are Government White Papers. If the hon. Lady thinks that a White Paper can be published without the support of the Treasury and that the aid and trade provision can be got rid of without the support of the Department of Trade and Industry and the Prime Minister, she does not understand how Government works. This White Paper commits every Government Department. We are united in that commitment and we shall ensure that it is implemented across all our policies.
Mr. Stuart Bell (Middlesbrough):
The House will welcome the Secretary of State's noble imperative of attacking world trade--[Hon. Members: "World poverty."] I am sorry--I am confusing my concepts. I have not read the White Paper, but will she confirm that on the back of trade we can expect a rise in living and labour standards in third-world countries? While the International Labour Organisation is an appropriate forum
Clare Short:
I am grateful to my hon. Friend. He will know that the projections of increased wealth in the world from globalisation are very large indeed, but if the process is not well managed, there is a risk that it will marginalise some countries and cause growing inequality within countries. That is why we need support for core labour standards and a strengthening of the ILO.
There are interesting arguments about whether there should be some minimum human rights conditions in the WTO. That argument will continue, but most developing countries are opposed to the idea. Therefore, the way to make progress is through the ILO. We are strengthening our commitment to its work, to core labour standards for everyone and, especially, to the eradication of hazardous child labour.
Mr. Kenneth Clarke (Rushcliffe):
Will the Secretary of State accept my congratulations to the Government on their attempts so far to maintain the lead in international forums such as the G7 and others on third-world debt relief, a lead which was first established by Lord Lawson and my right hon. Friend the Member for Huntingdon (Mr. Major), the previous Prime Minister?
The Secretary of State pleased and surprised me by referring with approval to the approach of Michel Camdessus of the International Monetary Fund. Does that mean not only that she is approaching new Labour, but that she is committed to conditionality in debt relief and that debt relief should be tied to compliance with well-judged IMF programmes? Does she accept, as old Labour did not always do, that debt relief with those conditions is the right way forward, because it ties debt relief to good economic policies that deliver sustainable development and does not simply restore credit worthiness to regimes that might squander precious moneys?
Clare Short:
I am grateful to the right hon. and learned Gentleman. In fact, Britain's lead on debt relief started under a previous Labour Government, but I have paid full tribute to the right hon. and learned Gentleman's contribution and to that of his Government. However, he will know that some countries say that Britain keeps taking the high ground but not producing too much money. I am sure that he is familiar with the idea that many countries thought that his initiatives were of that kind--good on analysis but short on resources. I pay genuine tribute to the leadership that Britain has given under the previous Government, under the previous Labour Government and now under this Government, with the Chancellor's efforts on debt relief. However, we must do more.
I have enormous regard for Mr. Camdessus. I recommend anyone who worries about the IMF's track record--people were entitled to do so in parts of the 1980s--to read his speech at the last annual meeting, in which he made a commitment to high-quality growth. That is growth which reduces poverty, promotes equality, sustains the environment and respects people's traditions. Earlier, when the IMF imposed conditions that required some of the poorest countries to charge for basic education and health care, it went too far. Mr. Camdessus is much better, and the IMF is healthier in his hands.
I absolutely agree with the right hon. and learned Gentleman that there has to be conditionality for debt cancellation. If Mr. Mobutu were still in power, I would not be in favour of cancelling his debt. Debt cancellation has to support Governments who want to deliver to the poor. It is because debt hurts the poor that we have to take action. We want to get behind the right kind of conditionality which supports good Governments who encourage human development and the type of economic growth that is sustainable and which helps the poor.
Ann Clwyd (Cynon Valley):
I warmly congratulate my right hon. Friend on establishing so quickly the principles according to which she will work in her new Department. I congratulate her especially on the focus on poverty and on women--we all know that investment in women is very good investment.
As the person who brought the scandal surrounding the Pergau dam to the House's attention in the first place, may I ask my right hon. Friend to confirm again that there will be no link between aid and arms in her Department, unlike under the previous Government who linked the two rather too often in the cases of Malaysia and Indonesia?
I am glad that we are aiming to spend 0.7 per cent. of gross national product on aid. Does my right hon. Friend have any idea of the time scale in which that might be achieved? We have had that aim many times in the past, but it is important to establish the time scale.
Clare Short:
I am grateful to my hon. Friend, and I pay my respects to her work on exposing the Pergau scandal. Of course there will be no repeat of Pergau, because what happened was illegal. The previous Government were hauled through the courts for breaching their own laws. There will be no link between aid and arms sales under this Administration. It was illegal under the previous Administration.

Great For Thick Hair!
My daughter and myself have been using this product line exclusively for about 3 years. Our stylist closed her shop and we couldn't find it anywhere locally so we've been trying many other (drugstore and salon) products without success. My daughter has waist length, thick hair with a natural wave, This is the best product she has found to smooth it out and make it shine like glass. I have permanently colored thick hair with some natural wave and curl that tends to be dry and have only found Morroccoanoil products to be as good as this one! It's great!! So delighted to find it here. I would recommend anybody to buy this and the matching shampoo and conditioner by L'Oreal Professional. If your hair isn't very thick, you might find the same product in pink containers to be sufficiently moisturizing, but give this a try!!

Holiday from the Holiday in the UK
Trip Start
Jul 23, 2002
Trip End
Jul 23, 2003
The visit to England wasn't part of the initial plan, but when the flights had to come through here I figured it was a good opportunity to catch up with some friends and see a bit of the country that you always hear about at home. Also a bit of a holiday from my holiday where I had no real agendas, nothing needing to be done and no real deadlines, other than to get to Africa by the 5th of May.
The trip to get to the UK was not one that I had been looking forward to, because it consisted of 40+ hours on planes and in airports and visits to 5 different countries (although I didn't officially set foot on 3 of them, as there's no stamps in the passport). So leaving Cuzco meant goodbyes to the last of the people I'd spent time with in the jungle which as normal weren't fun. That was followed by a quick flight across the Andes to Lima, followed by 14 hours in the airport, although I spent about 5 of them in Lima but didn't like the area so didn't hang around for dark - something to do with all the bars on the windows and people doing trade through the bars. About 2am it's time for another flight, this time to Santiago, followed by a walk through the transit lounge and a hour or so wait before getting back onto the same plane to get to Buenos Aires. Then another bit of waiting in the airport, followed by a flight to Sao Paulo (which I didn't know about when the ticket was booked), with a hour wait in the plane before they fumigated it (with everyone on board) before the 9 or so hours to London. And just when you think your finally there, it happens to be that you do laps around the city before being cleared to land and then can't get off the plane and have to wait near the maintenance shed for about 3/4 hour before they have a arrivals bay free that the plane could pull up to. And then finally I'm in the UK.
After negotiating the tube, I made it to Mary's place in Fulham and got to stay in a house for pretty much the first time in 9 months (apart from 2 days in Canada). The novelty of it was all pretty cool and for the next couple of weeks I enjoyed being in houses and having home cooked meals etc. Sitting on a sofa, bundled up in a doona, watching TV and eating creme egg icecreams, and other simple things like that, become more enjoyable when they're not done very often.
So after a chance to dump my bag, enjoy a hot shower and go for a wander around the supermarket we headed into the city for dinner with some of Mary's other friends who'd also just arrived in the UK. Suddenly I was surrounded with Australian's again, despite being in England. On chatting with one of the other girls who'd arrived from New York that morning she decided she didn't have anything to complain about when I said about my flight and she noticed my hand still in plaster (which I have yet to explain, lets just say Peru, rafting, hand, paddle and Simon's arse were all involved). It was strange going out for dinner and seeing the numbers I was used to seeing on Peru for prices on the menu, but I had to suddenly multiple rather than divide the prices which makes a huge difference in the final price. Going to take some getting used to the expensiveness of this country after being in central and south America.
The next few days saw some wandering around the city past the main tourist sights starting at the London Tower and working my way past the sites to end up near Westminister Abbey. Found an Australia shop and bought a few presents aswell. London was a little chaotic with all the buildings, traffic and people after coming from Peru, and I was glad that they had the Look Left and Look Right signs on the ground as I had no idea what direction traffic was coming from for the first day or so. Hopefully by the time I get back to Oz, I'll know which way the cars drive (fingers crossed anyway). Naturally I went out for a wander without an umbrella or anything because I just wasn't in that mindset, but here the rain isn't warm like in the jungle, so you really don't want to get to wet. Have to do some resorting of the thinking to get into the way of life here.
Before I left the city there was a visit to the hospital for more x-rays and to get the plaster taken off my thumb. These x-rays are definitely less impressive than the first set, but it does mean my thumb is at least on the way to being usable, although I need to get some strength and movement back into it. Hopefully the last hospital visit for this trip.
We also took a day trip out to the country with another of Mary's friends who has a car. We headed Dover direction, but saw the sign to Leed's Castle (not in Leeds) and ended up there. We spent the afternoon wandering the gardens and exploring the castle. Had peacocks displaying on the paths, swans with their cygnets on the ponds, and some beautiful gardens to wander through. The castle itself is also very beautiful and the others had a lot of fun playing around with their cameras getting different shots around the castle, moat and gardens. Walked through the bird avairies and checked out some of the bird species I'd just seen in the jungle. Then went and got ourselves lost in the maze before getting to the grotto and finding our way out. Then it was time to head back to London, after a very enjoyable day out.
Being in England it was strange suddenly seeing all the places you hear about all the time, and there were so many familiar place names, but they were all in the wrong location (compared to where they'd be in Oz). Wasn't really in a frame of mind for a big city, not that I'm a fan of cities in the first place, so after a couple of days headed to the country to stay with Rodney in Somerset.

Surprise, I'm not dead!
Thank you for the daily fifth place!
This is a University project, this is a short about an obnoxious thief and the desperate cop who hires him, and for some reason, everyone wears wool hats all the time.
It's nothing special really.
Whatever, you're better off just watching the animation, k? Enjoy.
If you prefer, youtube!

Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
Pretty funny sketch! I'm not quite sure why y ou decided to use the distorted voice for the crook, or the computer-generated voice for the copper, and I really would've liked to see some better work in voice acting. I feel like that is pretty much necessary considering how short this flick is.
Animation is all right, but you could definitely have done some more work on the characters, something as simple as a bit of shading would've made it all a whole lot better. The scenery is shaded, so why not do the same with the characters?
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
if I was a cop I think I would do that and visit them so i could rub it in their face soooo much.

Point Danger | |
Location: | Gold Coast, Australia |
Year first lit: | 1971 |
Automated: | 1971 |
Construction: | Concrete |
Tower shape: | Four rectangular pillars |
Markings/Pattern: | White with the principal compass directions inscribed on the pillars, bronze sculpture between the pillars |
Height: | 20 meters |
Focal Height: | 45 metres |
Range: | 18 nautical miles (33 km) |
Characteristic: | Fl.(2) 10s |
Admiralty number: | K2845 |
NGA number: | 5868 |

Point Danger is a high steep headland right on the border between Queensland and New South Wales, Australia, at the southern end of the Gold Coast. The headland separates Snapper Rocks/Rainbow Bay to the north, and Duranbah beach and the Tweed River mouth to the south
The Centaur Memorial remembers the sinking of Australian Hospital Ship Centaur by a Japanese submarine on 14 May 1943. The Walk of Remembrance commemorates other ships lost to Japanese and German action during World War II and takes the form of plaques arranged in a semicircle around the lookout fence.

Captain James Cook while sailing North about 5 pm on 16 May 1770 (Log Date) encountered the reefs that run 3 nautical miles (5.6 km) East from Fingal Head and Cook Island, to avoid these reefs Cook was forced to change His course to the East.
The next morning, (same log date 16 May) James Cook, although much further out to sea, recorded the location of the reefs and named the point off which the island and reefs lie - Point Danger. [1] He wrote:
We now saw the breakers again they lay two Leagues from a point under which is a small Island, their situation may always be found by the peaked mountain before mentioned from them this mountain or hill, and on this account I have named Mount Warning it lies 7 or 8 Leagues inland the land is high and hilly about it, but it is conspicuous enough to be distinguished from everything else. The point off which these shoals lay I have named Point Danger.
These reefs are now named Danger Reefs' and comprise Inner Reef, South Reef and Outer Reef.[2]
There has been controversy over the naming of Point Danger for many years. Evidence suggests that Fingal Head was the point James Cook named Point Danger in May 1770. As a consequence, the Geographical Names Board announced in 2008 that the official records for Point Danger and Fingal Head would be changed to reflect both the historical versions of the naming of Cook's Point Danger.[3] [4] [5]
The lighthouse/Cook Memorial was finished in 1971. It is an unusual modern style lighthouse and was the first in the world to experiment with lasers to increase its beam. The experiment was unsuccessful and it returned to conventional electric lamps. It emits a double white flash every ten seconds at a focal plane height of 44.5 metres. However there are no reefs off, or running East from this point.[6]

Posted | Discussion |
Sept. 27, 2013 deep14 25 posts | 40's and 50's session #3 Does anyone know when the session #3 will come out for world masters |
Sept. 28, 2013 68Levi 16 posts | I feel you. I am a little disappointed also. We are now less than a week away from possible games on Friday and my guys can not commit to reservations...We don't know if we should arrive Thursday night for earlier games on Friday, or we can show up on Friday for later games. The registration cutoff was almost 20 day ago. |
Sept. 28, 2013 moosedrools 4 posts | Somebody has 2 know someone who can tell us something?? Less than a week b4 1st game! |
Sept. 28, 2013 twotwo Men's 50 23 posts | Be ready for early games on Friday...This has been my experience in the past...I hope it helps you and good luck. |
Sept. 28, 2013 STL0 62 posts | Our 55 Major team played at 7:30 am Friday and the brackets were loaded with early games. I agree with twotwo...be ready for early games. |
Sept. 28, 2013 moosedrools 4 posts | The reason we would like to know is that most people (players) in session #3 still work we haven't retired yet! So the least amount of days we have to take off the better!! So if we had a heads up maybe even a week it would just make it a lil easier for a lot of folks, thats all!!!! Thanks |
Sept. 28, 2013 usmc0311 32 posts | I'm glad some people have options to when they can get there! But those of us coming from the east coast have to leave Thursday. No sympathy here. Be ready Friday morning!!!! |
Sept. 28, 2013 damaged goods 12 posts | Look at last years bracket, there was 49 teams this year 48 I'd bet it would be fairly close to last years |
Sept. 28, 2013 SSUSA Staff 1420 posts | Session #3 game schedules and brackets are under construction and should be released in the next few days ... There are 183 teams in the session, excluding the Wounded Warriors Amputee Softball Team, which will be playing an exhibition game at Big League Dreams on Friday evening ... The field pressure is substantial, the brackets are large, and every available time slot will likely be utilized ... Games at most venues will commence at 7:30 AM and there will be 9:00 PM games more as the norm than the exception ... We have also added two softball complexes to handle the demand ... The schedules and brackets are being drafted in Las Vegas, so calls to the Sacramento Home Office will not result in any meaningful information on availability ... They will know shortly after they are posted here ... For those teams making "Late Start Requests", those requests may well result in a 9:00 AM start time instead of a 7:30 AM game time ... As others have advised, be prepared to play early on Friday ... Good luck to all! |
Sept. 29, 2013 damaged goods 12 posts | Sorry staff meant to say 48 teams in aaa not the whole 3rd session |
Sept. 29, 2013 1 posts | I do understand how many teams are involved..but wasn't there a cutoff date and they've known all this for more than a week? I'm not complaining because we've had to have tickets for weeks, but other teams might need to know more than 3 days ahead. Hopefully they will be out 1st thing on Monday. I will question it a little if we don't see something on Monday.. No reason it can't be figured out with a week to work on it. I think that's being reasonable? |
Sept. 30, 2013 Chief144 Men's 70 70 posts | Ok, here we go again! SSUSA publishes the play dates for each age group when they post the master schedule. Then, most of the time, we get a "tentative" list of where that age group "may" play a few weeks in advance. If our age group, 65M is scheduled to play Mon - Thur, we assume we will be playing an early game on the 1st day. That way you are all there no matter what time you may play. If you gat a later start time, good for your team, sleep in or find a place to bat. I always tell our team that since we will be in the championship and/or the "if" game, don't plan on leaving before 5pm on the last day. That way EVERYONE knows how to schedule travel, hotels, etc. this process has worked for us for over 10 years playing 60s - 65s. I know it is harder on the younger age groups because of work, etc. However, I would want my team here, ready to play early on the 1st day. That way if some travel problems arise, no problem, you have some extra time to get everyone to the tournament, ready to play. AND BESIDES ALL OF THAT, IT IS NO EASY TASK TO DEVELOP A SCHEDULE FOR 485 TEAMS! Thanks and have fun in Vegas!!! |
Sept. 30, 2013 68Levi 16 posts | Chief, I understand your logic...but remember that most of the 40's (men and women), some of the 50's, and god forgive those poor souls over 55 whom still have children at home...we need to coordinate down to the actual game time. My last tourney in Phoenix, we coordinated to be there on Thursday, only to find out we were not going to play a Friday morning game. We are driving distance to both Vegas and Phoenix, so if we can save money by not needing to get a room for an additional night, spending extra money on eating out, managing the children away from home for an extra night, and don't get me started on coordinating a work schedule...advanced scheduling would help immensely. I feel more for the teams who have more of a distance to travel. I do understand that there are a large amount of teams...that's great, more and different competition. But, at least do us a solid and give us at least 1 week prior to game day to know what time and day we are playing. Don't get me wrong...I love SSUSA and playing in these tourney's, but we pay a lot of money and would just like a little customer service. Cutoff is 3 weeks prior to our proposed first game day. That should be plenty of time. |
Sept. 30, 2013 softball4b Men's 60 785 posts | Just tell Dave you want to play the first game, then it is all good. No stress, no problem. |
Sept. 30, 2013 pureevil 19 posts | looks like diamonds are changing too.... |
Sept. 30, 2013 deep14 25 posts | pureevil, where did you get the info on field changes? |
Sept. 30, 2013 pureevil 19 posts | go to the tourney list,40 major is playing at Big horn,Arroyo,Russell road and 1 more on friday and on SAT/SUN we are at Arroyo |
Sept. 30, 2013 pureevil 19 posts | MEN'S 40-MASTERS MAJOR - Friday: Arroyo Grande, Dos Esquelas, Big Horn Park, Russell Road. Saturday - Sunday: Arroyo Grande |
Sept. 30, 2013 deep14 25 posts | cool now all we need is game times |
Sept. 30, 2013 SSUSA Staff 1420 posts | All seeding game schedules for Session #3 are now online ... Brackets are in final technical/bracket-logic review and should be posted shortly ... Accordingly, all field assignments appearing on those schedules may now be regarded as FINAL ... Good luck everybody! |
Sept. 30, 2013 400 Men's 50 82 posts | 50's just let me tell you that you need to come PREPARED to the park. As a just for instance we played in a 29 team bracket and won our first bracket game and then lost our second. We left the park LATE on Friday night 10:00PM and then started early on Saturday, 0730. We kept winning throughout the day but with DELAYS we never completed our day until 12:30AM! We started back at 0800 Sunday morning! All I can say is wow! This weekend took me back to playing tournaments with the Bandits in those early years. Get yourself ready! Hang on! Good luck to all - and stay in the winners bracket. I want to also commend the Park Director and grounds crew at Desert Breeze. They worked long and hard to get fields worked quickly and get games going. Those guys were all volunteers and were there after we left each day. Thanks guys! |

Libyrinth | ||||||||
Pearl North | ||||||||
Tor, 335 pages | ||||||||
A review by Charlene Brusso
15-year-old Haly is a clerk in the Libyrinth, a vast underground library of Earth lore and knowledge brought
long ago to this colony world. From her earliest memories, Haly has been able to "hear" the Libyrinth's
books. They speak to her, reciting their contents, as lively and full of personality, from warm and comforting
to stodgy and pedantic, as any family you might imagine.
But not everyone treasures this repository of ancient knowledge. The Eradicants, theocrats devoted to oral
tradition, prize information as much as the Libryrians, but they pass it on as music, encoding everything from
medicine to electrical engineering in song. The Eradicants would like nothing better than to wipe the unholy
Libyrinth from the face of the planet, but first they want to find the legendary Book of Night, which supposedly
contains the true history of the world's early days, and the schism that divided the planet's inhabitants
into pro and anti-book forces. In the meantime, the Libyrinth survives by sacrificing books to the Eradicants'
annual bonfires. Then Haly learns of a plot by the Eradicants to steal The Book of Night and destroy the
Libyrinth. Along with her resourceful friend Clauda, a kitchen drudge too smart for the crushing servitude
she's been born into, Haly sets off to foil the scheme, only to become a prisoner of the Eradicants. Then
they learn of her ability to 'hear' books, and Haly finds herself in a dangerous position -- one which could
save the Libyrinth and broker peace between the warring groups -- if only it doesn't get her burned at the stake first.
Meanwhile Clauda discovers an ancient weapon that could devastate the enemies of the Libyrinth, if she
can learn how to control it. With just these two characters, Pearl North effectively manages to set an entire
world on the edge of disaster, or salvation. Both sides of the conflict treasure information and maintain
rigid hierarchies that limit their growth, but neither can be complete without the other.
Pearl North's prose is smooth and her dialogue believable. Although the plot at times feels a bit
manipulative, the characters ring true. The novel, with its dystopian society and intrepid orphans who
save the day, works nicely as YA science fiction, but for older readers there is also the joy of finding
evocative shout-outs and resonances with familiar classics, from Charlotte's Web
and The Diary of Anne Frank to Fahrenheit 451 and of course A Canticle for
Liebowitz. North has crafted a book that will appeal to readers of almost any age. After all,
how can you not sympathize with a character who loves books?
Charlene's sixth grade teacher told her she would burn her eyes out before she was 30 if she kept reading and writing so much. Fortunately he was wrong. Her work has also appeared in Aboriginal SF, Amazing Stories, Dark Regions, MZB's Fantasy Magazine, and other genre magazines. |

"In the first of 150 similar cases, the [European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg] ruled that Russia had violated the right to life of Mr Yandiyev and failed to conduct a proper investigation.
It ordered Moscow to pay his mother €35,000 (Ł24,500) in compensation for the inhumane treatment that she endured while trying to ascertain her son's fate. Mr Yandiyev, who had travelled to Chechnya in search of his father, was never seen again. His body has not been found.
General Baranov was promoted in 2004 and received a Hero of Russia medal in 2005. He now commands all the troops in southern Russia.
"I hope that now I can find the truth and my country will answer the question: where is my son?" Mrs Bazorkina, who lives in Ingushetia, told The Times. "My case is not the only one. Other mothers will see that I have won and will now take their cases to the European court."
The court has ruled against Russia several times, but this ruling has set a precedent for at least 150 more Chechen disappearance cases under consideration in Strasbourg.
Human rights groups say that many others could follow, as up to 5,000 people have disappeared in Chechnya since 1999, when Russian troops re-entered the region." click to read article in full

Brisiel expected to start
Didnt see this posted. If so sorry
http://www.houstontexans.com/news/ar...b-339054aadb10 Starting right guard Mike Brisiel continued his rapid recovery from a fractured fibula on Wednesday, practicing for the second consecutive day. It sounds all but certain that Brisiel will return to the Texans lineup to face the Cincinnati Bengals on Saturday, less than a month after having surgery on Dec. 12. Hes good, Texans coach Gary Kubiak said. Hes better today. I talked to yall yesterday about how we like to play at the end of games, whether its (a) 70/30, 60/40 (split with Antoine Caldwell) or whatever. Wed like to play them both, but all indications are through the first two days of practice that Mike will be ready to start and carry his load. Barring any setbacks tomorrow, thats the way we will go. Brisiel was injured in Week 14 in the first half of the Texans 20-19 victory at Cincinnati. He played the entire second half with a broken leg. He had surgery the next day and missed the final three games of the regular season. Its crazy to me to see him out there full practice today doing one-on-ones and everything, and hes only, what, three weeks out of surgery, center Chris Myers said on Tuesday. Its crazy. Its amazing to see guys come back with that determination. Texans free safety Danieal Manning recovered from the same injury and surgery earlier this season. He fractured his fibula in Week 7 at Tennessee, missed the next three games and returned in Week 12 after the Texans bye week. Brisiel, a fourth-year veteran, started 13 games this season as the Texans finished second in the NFL in rushing. He started all 16 games in 2010 along with Myers, left tackle Duane Brown, left guard Wade Smith and right tackle Eric Winston. |
Re: Brisiel expected to start
Great news. Thanks for posting, EllisUnit.
Can't help but think "what if" he had been in there these past three games. |
Re: Brisiel expected to start
Winston has probably been rubbing down Brisiel's toes every day all week trying to assure that he ends up next to him Saturday afternoon. :kitten:
Re: Brisiel expected to start
caldwell has been dreadful... welcome back, biscuit!!!
Re: Brisiel expected to start
This is good, good news. If Biscuit can go at 80% I will take that over Caldwell's 100% all day. Poor guy was gettin beat to the point time and time again. Looked lost in pass protection as well.
Re: Brisiel expected to start
How the Hell do you play a half of football with a broken leg?
Question #2: Why can't Schaub do it? :kitten: PS-Yeah, thank God he's back. |
Re: Brisiel expected to start
Re: Brisiel expected to start
Heard Winston say on the radio that Brisiel is the toughest guy on the team...plays has and extremely high pain tolerance and will play through just about anything.
The bone he broke was non weight bearing, so he could still be quite effective... |

Chemotherapy and antithymocyte globulin stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient's immune cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving cyclosporine and methotrexate after transplant may stop this from happening.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving donor stem cell transplant together with busulfan, fludarabine, and antithymocyte globulin works in treating patients with hematological cancer.

- To investigate whether unrelated donor hematopoietic stem cell transplantation using a nonmyeloablative conditioning regimen comprising busulfan, fludarabine phosphate, and anti-thymocyte globulin can reduce treatment-related mortality in patients with hematologic malignancies.
- To investigate whether this regimen can be sufficiently immunosuppressive to enable engraftment of HLA-matched unrelated hematopoietic stem cells.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.
Prior to receiving the conditioning chemotherapy regimen, all patients with acute leukemia, chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), and high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, atypical CML, and refractory anemia with excess blasts) receive one dose of intrathecal (IT) methotrexate. These patients also receive leucovorin calcium IV or orally 4 hours after IT methotrexate and every 6 hours for a total of 8 doses.
- Nonmyeloablative conditioning regimen: Patients receive fludarabine phosphate IV over 30 minutes on days -7 to -2, busulfan IV over 3 hours on days -7 to -6, anti-thymocyte globulin IV over 4 hours on days -4 to -2.
- Allogeneic bone marrow stem cell transplantation (SCT): Patients undergo allogeneic bone marrow SCT on day 0.
- Graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) prophylaxis: Patients receive cyclosporine (CSA) IV over 2-4 hours every 12 hours starting on day -1 and continuing until day 180 (CSA can be given orally every 12 hours once oral medication can be tolerated) and methotrexate IV on days 1, 3 , 6 , and 11.
Once blood counts recover, patients with acute leukemia or CML in blast crisis resume IT methotrexate once every 2 weeks for a total of 3 doses. Patients also receive leucovorin calcium IV or orally 4 hours after IT methotrexate and then every 6 hours for a total of 8 doses.
Patients are followed for at least 10 years after SCT.

Police will search several spots in the Blue Mountains for the remains of a woman who disappeared more than 14 years ago.
Belinda Peisley was 19 when she was last seen at her home in Katoomba in September 1998.
Police have renewed their appeal for the mother of two as specialist police prepare to search a number of locations in Blackheath from 9am (AEDT) on Friday.
The mother vanished when her sons were just one and three years old.
Police have said Ms Peisley, who had drug problems and debt, had received a considerable inheritance prior to her death.
The inheritance had resulted in many visitors to her home.
A coronial inquest into her disappearance is set to resume at Katoomba Local Court next week.
Police and members of Ms Peisley's family will address the media later on Friday.

Here in the Holy Land, there's one month in the Jewish Calendar that typifies "spring" as the poets would describe it, and that's the month of Nissan, miracles and the holiday of Passover, Pesach. As has been my practice for quite a few years, I go to pray at Shiloh HaKeduma, Tel Shiloh, the site where the Biblical Mishkan, Tabernacle rested/was located for 369 years after the Exodus from Egypt, from the time of Joshua until the death of Eli the High Priest. For almost four centuries, Shiloh was the religious and administrative Capital of the Jewish People/Nation.
Recently, archaeologists have been back to Tel Shiloh looking for ancient treasures and secrets to show what life had been like in Biblical times when Jewish pilgrims came to Shiloh to pray.
I've made it my custom to come to Tel Shiloh, which is just a short distance from my home, every Rosh Chodesh, the beginning of the Jewish Month, to pray with other women.
Next Rosh Chodesh, Iyyar, we will be there again, G-d willing.

When we decided to go for the vintage Tele® sound, we knew we had to do more than just copy a forty-year-old design. We wanted pickups that captured the best elements of our favorite Broadcaster® and Telecaster® sounds, and then some. The Twang King™ pickups have unequaled response to pick attack: light playing produces a soft, quiet tone and hard picking creates a harder, louder and more dynamic sound than any comparable single-coil. We accomplished this with a combination of controlled-tension coil-winding, special wire and hand-calibrated magnets. The neck pickup comes with a chrome cover, and the bridge model has a ferrous base plate. Both pickups are wax-potted twice for squeal-free performance.
Recommended For: Standard Tele Bridge position.
Tech Talk: We didn't model the Twang King bridge after a specific original. Instead, we combined the best tonal qualities of several Broadcaster and Telecaster pickups from the '50s and early '60s. We were aiming for a balance between big, clean lows and fatter-sounding highs, and we wanted the pickup to be able to handle a very wide dynamic range, so the sound would clean up with soft picking and really open up with a harder attack.

Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach is backing a bill that would exclude the lesser prairie chicken from federal protection.
Kobach told the Senate Natural Resources Committee on Thursday that the bill would likely lead to a legal battle that pits state rights against federal law.
About 100 people from the Wichita-based voter advocacy group KanVote rallied at the State House Tuesday urging legislators to repeal the new voter law. But their effort immediately stalled.The NAACP, the American Civil Liberties Union and Equality Kansas have also called publicly for the law's repeal.More than 15,900 legal Kansas residents' voter registrations are "on hold" because they have yet to provide proper documents; until then, they can't legally vote.
The American Civil Liberties Union said in a letter that it's ready to go to court over a voter registration law in Kansas.
Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach has asked for an investigation into an immigration reform protest held outside his Wyandotte County home.
Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach has failed to gain authority to prosecute election fraud allegations. The state House rejected a bill that contained his proposal.Legislators approved similar versions of Kobach's proposals earlier this year. However, negotiators tied new authority for his office to another measure about collecting DNA samples from criminal suspects.Some Republican lawmakers said collecting DNA from suspects violates the suspects' civil liberties.Other House members didn't want to give Kobach the expanded authority.
Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach says he is close to winning legislative approval for new power for his office to investigate and prosecute election fraud cases. Secretary of State Kobach said Friday he's optimistic lawmakers will approve the bill when they reconvene this week to wrap up their business for the year.The House and Senate have approved different versions of Kobach's bill, setting up negotiations over the final version. Lead House negotiator Lance Kinzer said Kobach's proposal is on track to pass.
Kansas Democrats want to put limits on the Secretary of State.
Democratic leaders say they will introduce two measures in January in an effort to limit Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach's power, and his work outside the office on immigration and other issues.
Senate Minority Leader Anthony Hensley said Tuesday that he would submit a bill to limit the ability of statewide elected officials and their employees to work more than 10 hours a week outside their official duties and still receive compensation.
A Democratic legislator who's been a critic of Republican Secretary of State Kris Kobach says she won't seek a recount after losing her race for re-election by 21 votes out of nearly 11,000 cast.
State Representative Ann Mah of Topeka said Friday that a recount probably wouldn't change the outcome of the 54th House District contest. She lost to Republican challenger Ken Corbet of Topeka.
The district covers parts of Douglas, Shawnee and Osage counties. The last reviews of ballots - in Shawnee County - finished late Thursday.
A Kansas House Democrat has filed a lawsuit hoping to force Shawnee County officials to turn over a list of voters who cast provisional ballots.
Rep. Ann Mah of Topeka is trying to avert a narrow election loss.
Democratic Party officials gave The Associated Press a copy of Mah's petition before it was filed in Shawnee County District Court Friday.
Mah trails Republican challenger Ken Corbet of Topeka by 27 votes out of almost 11,000 cast. She says she wants to ensure that all provisional votes are counted and that maybe 150 votes are in play.

Consolidation of Marion County Fire and Sheriff Deprtments One Step Closer
It is a move Marion County Sheriff, Ed Dean says could save tax payers millions-merging the County's Sheriff and Fire Rescue departments.
A blue-ribbon task force has been studying the proposition for the last couple of months and presented their final report Monday.
In a 5-2 vote, the blue-ribbon task force favorably considered a possible, future consolidation.
Panel members Carl Crabtree and Sam McConnell comprised the two dissenting votes. Panel members who voted in support of a possible merger included Douglas Cone, local business owner, Brian Cretul, Habitat of Humanity of Marion County Board Member, Tim Petty, Ocala/ Marion County Tourism Development Council, and Chester Trow, local lawyer.
Marion County Commissioners will consider the consolidation proposition next week.
