Jaque Fourie has agreed a short-term deal with Japanese club the Panasonic Wild Knights.
There have been reports linking the Springbok and Stormers centre to a move to Japan over the last fortnight. After discussions between the player and the WP union, it has been decided that Fourie will be released to play for the Wild Knights for the duration of their domestic season.
The 28-year-old will return in time for the Stormers' Super Rugby campaign, that kicks off on 24 February. However, with the Japanese domestic season only ending on 5 February, it means Fourie will head straight into Super Rugby preparations with no break after a busy 2011, which included an extended Super Rugby season, Tri-Nations and World Cup tournaments.
Fourie is the second Stormers player to be sent out on loan to a Japanese club. Flyhalf Peter Grant is currently playing in his second campaign for the Kobe Kobelco Steelers, and will also rush back into Super Rugby next year. Springbok and Bulls scrumhalf Fourie du Preez and lock Danie Rossouw have both signed two-year deals with Japanese club Suntory Sungoliath.
This site has it on good authority that there is an opportunity for Fourie to make a permanent transfer to Japan after Super Rugby. Fourie will have the opportunity to experience Japan and their domestic rugby from October to February, and could be open to a longer deal.

Hi guys, I'm new to the microcontroller scene, having just found out about and picked up my SX28AC development kit last Friday. I'm trying to build a frequency counter for production, and when the user calibrates the device, I need to store a 2-Byte number. This is all I need to store, and it needs to be persistant across power cycles -- obviously no one wants to recalibrate every time they turn the device on. Is there any way to do this without adding an EEPROM? That seems like massive overkill for my modest needs. Thanks a lot for any input!
It's possible I could save this calibration setting·by reading the resistance that the user set with a trimmer, but I'd rather do it digitally, and haven't read that far in the 'Beginner's programming the SX' manual yet. All I know how to do is detect a threshold voltage, not full A/D conversion.

Strengths: Very fast roller, feels like a road tire on hardpack. Floats over sand since its knobs are low (doesnt dig itself down). Dial the pressure in and it will win you races.
Weaknesses: NOT a tire for loose over hardpack, the low knobs and light tread dont dig in so you slide on loose gravel. The sidewalls tend to wear fast, and threads cut easy from rocks.

Strengths: Climbing and braking traction.
Weaknesses: Tire wears quickly compared to standard 70a tires. Minor grip for the performance gain.
Bottom Line:
I used these tires in So California trails.
Comparing these tires to my Ritchey Z.E.D. WCS Race 2.1's; The Ranchero's pedal slightly better and the braking is improved. The eXCeption 2.0 Ranchero's weigh 560 vs. Ritchey Z.E.D. WCS 535g. I think this is because of the Ranchero's center knob design and the Ritcheys have more aggressive tread pattern. The Ranchero's climb equal to my Z.E.D.s which is very good.
Hardpack trails the Ranchero's really excel but with a loose topcoat the Ritcheys have better corning traction. Both are very good on hardpack with a loose topcoat.
I checked the Ritchey section to leave review but they do not list the Z.E.D. WCS Race 2.1. MTB Action rated 30 tires and the Z.E.D.'s came in 3rd.
From all the tires I have tried for XC usage the Ranchero eXCeption and Z.E.D. WCS surprised me most. Once you dail in air pressure these tires rail So Cal trails. Both tires recommend higher psi ranges 45-65 but I run mine at 35 psi front and 40 psi rear. I weigh 180 lbs and never pinch flatted using Maxxis Ultralight tubes 125g. Try running at higher pressures and they roll great but corning or climbing is worthless.
To me these are 2 of the best So Cal XC tires out. I'm going to try the Kenda Nevegal 2.1 and Specialized Roll-X Pro next. Depending how they fare I just might opt for another pair of Ranchero eXCeptions or WCS Z.E.D.'s.

Analysis: DoD budget cut strategy must include China
Thursday - 11/17/2011, 6:17pm EST
Budget cuts are coming to the Pentagon, either through supercommittee cuts or sequestration. But a new strategy may be an effective weapon in both the budget fight, and fights against our enemies. Andrew Krepinevich, president and CEO at the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments, writes in the LA Times, "Arguably the greatest strategic choice concerns how best to respond to China's rapid rise as a major power." He tells In Depth with Francis Rose about that strategy.

Product Description
Three sizes:
5X: With no stretch and superior strength the 5X is an awesome nymphing material. It is especially great for Czech nymphing with its super sensitive bite detection.
4X: A general purpose size ideal for hoppers and other terrestrials, especially when fishing tight to the bank.
3X: Stiff enough to turn over bigger flies and superb for streamers.
5X (0.006", 0,152mm); 10lb (4.6kg)
4X (0.007", 0,178mm); 15lb (6.8kg)
3X (0.008", 0,203mm); 20lb (9.1kg)
20 yards per spool
Color: Black
Extreme Tippet is very, very strong and has a slick coating that can result in the failure of standard fishing knots. To get the very best in performance from Extreme Tippet we recommend the use of a triple or quadruple surgeon's knot when joining together two pieces of Extreme Tippet (or if joining it to regular nylon). We also recommend the no-slip knot for attaching flies (an illustration is attached with each spool).
Warning: The ultra-thin diameter and very high tensile strength of Extreme Tippet makes it tough to break (and cut). Be careful if hooked to a snag that the fly or line does not fire back into your face when pulling for a break. Also, handle with care when

Sometimes we can't help ourselves. It's not uncommon for an ASPCA employee to fall in love with one of the animals at our Adoption Center—in fact, it happens all the time. For Dea Taylor, it happened to her when she met a spunky little dog in our care who had been struggling to find a forever home.
"Halo is sweet, energetic, and the friendliest dog I've ever met," Taylor says. "I knew she would be a challenge when I learned she was returned to the ASPCA three times. But I knew I was up to the challenge."
Taylor was right. The first night she took Halo home, the little dog was a bundle of energy. In fact, Halo had "energy bursts"—short periods of time when she ran around the apartment until she tired herself out. "When I put her in her crate, she calmed down," Taylor says. "Then I looked at those cute little eyes, and thought about how many people didn't give her a chance."
Lucky for Halo, Taylor gave her all the time she needed to settle in. In the end, Halo just wanted a patient adopter who would let her play and learn the joy of relaxation.
Did you adopt a cat or dog from the ASPCA? Send us photos at [email protected] for a chance to be featured on the blog.
Is that an affenpinscher? They are super spunky awesome dogs, very rare too :)
My 12 wk old puppy ingested some disk cleaner and I called your Emergency line and instead
of help the money was more inportant yes, it would be nice to have ER money in the money bank that I do not have and instead of the careing nature of my puppy.Money was more important and I plan to let all of my friends and family of nine and all are dog and cat owners know that the care of my animal was not important unless I had the moneys. Thanks for nothing.

I was doing some research a couple days ago. I looked back to the very first PDGA sanctioned event that I had played. It was the 2003 Brandenburg Open. I was looking through some of the names and thinking Ah, yeah, I remember that guy. The more of the names that I looked at the more I found myself echoing that same statement Wheres that guy now?, I remember him.
So then I tallied it up. There were 69 players at that event in 2003. Now, in 2011, 53 of those same 69 players have not played a sanctioned event this year. Thats 77% of the field. The majority of those players, also, havent renewed their PDGA membership this year. I thought maybe its because its Brandenburg .maybe the small town just drew a more casual crowd. So I looked at the 2003 ZGLO where we had 125 players. I lost count for sure but I know that AT LEAST 109 of those 125 players havent played this year. Thats 87%!
Looking through the names there were a LOT of players that were GREAT. There were great AMs on the verge of being PRO and some great PROs too. There is a World Amateur Champion that is on that list of people that havent played this year. There were a few, hardworking volunteers on that list that dedicated a LOT of their time to growing the sport only to fall away from the sport themselves. These werent all just a bunch of casual golfers.
Discussion what can we do to increase the staying power of disc golf? What could we do to keep another 80% of the playing field from quitting in the next eight years? Imagine if we had those players in our pool of competitors today. Imagine how big our tournaments would be.

New Associates Find a Need and Fill It
- 05/16/08
Roanoke College faculty teaching in newly renovated Miller Hall have encountered an unexpected glitch in the building. For it they can thank Greg and Nicole Brewer Terrill '94, '95. The Terrills, who became Associates of the College in 2006, donated the hardwood tables and the upholstery and leather chairs and sofas that occupy the atrium lounges located on each of Miller's three floors. "What has always attracted us to Roanoke College is the attention to the outside: the beauty of the campus and the fit of the school within the town," Greg explains. "We wanted to see the same care given to the inside."
Greg, a Bedford, VA, native and former SGA president, and Nicole, of DeLand, FL, met her freshman year in Dr. Denis Lape's honors English class. Following Nicole's graduation, the two English majors married and moved to New York to enter graduate school, Greg at Seton Hall for an MBA and Nicole at Columbiafor a MPH (Master of Public Health). In 1999 they returned to the Roanoke Valley to start a family, which now includes Nora, 5, and Sally, 20 months, and for Greg to take over the Bedford-based family business, Frank Chervan, Inc. One of Greg's first acts was to veer the furniture frame manufacturer from residential and into high-end office and health care furniture.
When the Terrills heard that their alma mater was involved in a building project, they asked Judi Nelson, then vice president for resource development, how they could help. Thus was born the idea of the atrium furniture for the English Department's home. "An aspect of our education for which we always have been thankful is Roanoke's emphasis on serving the community," says Greg, a sentiment that Nicole, who volunteers on several organizations' boards, echoes. "This was a way we could fill a need at the school we love." Students in Miller love filling the chairs and sofas-so much so that their professors have to shoo them out of the lounges and into the rooms for classes to begin.

Why Get Tested?
To determine if you have sufficient rubella antibodies to protect you from the rubella virus; to verify a past infection or detect a recent infection
When to Get Tested?
Prior to or at the beginning of a pregnancy to verify immunity; when a pregnant woman has symptoms of rubella, such as fever and rash; when a newborn shows signs of abnormal development or birth defects that may be caused by an in utero infection; whenever there is need to verify a recent rubella infection or to verify immunity
Sample Required?
A blood sample drawn from a vein in the arm of an adult or blood drawn from a heelprick or from the umbilical cord of a newborn
Test Preparation Needed?
The Test Sample
What is being tested?
Rubella is a virus that causes an infection that is usually mild and characterized by fever and rash that last about 2 to 3 days. The Infection is highly contagious but is preventable with a vaccine. This test detects and measures rubella antibodies in the blood that are produced by the body's immune system in response to an infection by the rubella virus.
There are two types of rubella antibodies: IgM and IgG. The first type to appear in the blood after exposure is the IgM rubella antibody. The level of this protein rises and peaks in the blood within about 7 to 10 days after infection and then tapers off over the next few weeks, except in an infected newborn, where it may be detected for several months to a year. The IgG rubella antibody takes a bit longer to appear than the IgM, but once it does, it stays in the bloodstream for life, providing protection against re-infection. The presence of IgM rubella antibodies in the blood indicates a recent infection while the presence of IgG antibodies may indicate a recent or past rubella infection, or indicate that a rubella vaccine (a measles, mumps, rubella vaccine) has been given and is providing adequate protection.
The rubella virus generally causes a mild infection marked by a fine red rash that appears on the face and neck and then travels to the trunk and limbs before disappearing a few days later. The virus is passed through nasal and throat secretions and can cause symptoms such as fever, enlarged lymph nodes, runny nose, red eyes, and joint pain. Symptoms may be so minimal, especially in children, that they are not perceived as being from a viral illness. In most people, rubella goes away within a couple of days without any special medical treatment and causes no further health issues.
The primary concern with rubella infection is when a pregnant woman contracts it for the first time during the first three months of her pregnancy. The developing fetus is most vulnerable to the virus at this time and, if it is passed on to the fetus by the mother, it can cause miscarriage, stillbirth, and/or congenital rubella syndrome (CRS), a group of serious birth defects that will permanently affect the child. CRS can cause delayed development, mental retardation, deafness, cataracts, an abnormally small head, liver problems, and heart defects.
Because of the severe consequences for developing fetuses, a national campaign was started in 1969 to immunize all children in the United States and to work to eradicate rubella infection, first in the U.S. and then throughout the world. Prior to this time, rubella infections would emerge as cyclic outbreaks that lasted for several years. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), during the 1962-1965 rubella epidemic, 12.5 million cases of rubella occurred in the United States and there were 20,000 infants born with CRS. Due to vaccination efforts, these numbers have decreased drastically. The latest statistics from the CDC, from 2008, show that there were only 16 cases of rubella recorded in the United States. Each year since 2001, there have been fewer than 25 cases reported. The CDC now declares endemic rubella to be eradicated in the U.S., although the incidence continues to be monitored. People should not become complacent with this reduction, however, and the CDC cautions people to continue to have their children vaccinated. Anyone who has not received the vaccination as a child (and a few that have) may still be vulnerable to rubella infection.
Pregnant women and women considering pregnancy continue to be routinely tested for rubella antibodies to ensure that they have sufficient levels for immunity.
How is the sample collected for testing?
A blood sample is drawn from a vein in the arm of an adult or from a heelprick or the umbilical cord of a newborn.
NOTE: If undergoing medical tests makes you or someone you care for anxious, embarrassed, or even difficult to manage, you might consider reading one or more of the following articles: Coping with Test Pain, Discomfort, and Anxiety, Tips on Blood Testing, Tips to Help Children through Their Medical Tests, and Tips to Help the Elderly through Their Medical Tests.
Another article, Follow That Sample, provides a glimpse at the collection and processing of a blood sample and throat culture.
Is any test preparation needed to ensure the quality of the sample?
No test preparation is needed.

MARK KEOHANE, in his weekly Business Day column, says players can only control themselves — which is why they have to stay fit.
I missed the last three minutes of the Lions' victory against the Sharks, but the first 77 minutes again highlighted how important fitness is to succeeding in sport.
The Lions defended more than they would have liked in the opening 40 minutes and there was a suspicion that the first-half tackling would be their undoing in the last 10 minutes and that the home team would not have the fitness levels to last the pace.
A lack of fitness has been synonymous with any Lions performance in the past three to four years, perhaps even before that. Bizarrely, the players did not see the importance of being fit and conditioned to play rugby. The coaches believed it to be the responsibility of the players and it was one bloody mess after the other.
Lions coach John Mitchell, during his two years as All Blacks coach, and as coach of Australia's Western Force, has not relented on the fitness of his players. He has always believed that if a player has something left in his legs in the final minutes of a brutal contest, that player has got a chance to finish a winner.
When I worked with the Springboks between 2000 and 2003, one of the more enjoyable experiences was a workshop with a Jamaican sports psychologist and motivator, and while I forget his name I'll never forget the one exercise he did the with players.
He asked the team why they believed they were losing and as the players answered he would jot down the reasons.
The media were 'anti the team', said a player, and it was why they were losing.
The referees were anti-SA and it was impossible to play against any team who had the referee on their side, said another. Late kick-off times made it impossible to be at their best, said a few players.
Other reasons were the weather conditions, the quality of the opposition, match venues, the lack of good training facilities when overseas, the location of the hotel, the bus time to training and match-day engagements, jerseys that were either too heavy or too tight and in the odd instance too big. And, said one, don't get us started on the hotel food.
The sports psychologist wrote down each answer on a flip chart without countering any of the reasons. He just called for more and the players responded. Team selection, they said, was not always good. The coach's game plans were not always that sound and there was uncertainty in understanding the thinking of the coach.
'What about you guys?' he asked. 'What is it you are doing — or not doing — that is contributing to losing?'
Some players looked surprised at the question. The odd one even looked shocked at the mere suggestion the players may be responsible for anything.
One player said he could be fitter. Another said he could work harder at his skills. Another added there could be greater communication within the team.
It was at this point that the friendly consultant reacted to a player's comment.
'Can you guarantee me the communication will be better in the team and that there will be a better team spirit and a winning culture?'
The player said he couldn't give such a guarantee because he couldn't talk on behalf of his team-mates and he couldn't necessarily influence them positively to do what he believed would benefit a winning culture.
'Exactly,' said the consultant. 'And you can't control what the media say or write. You can't control who the opposition coach selects, where the game is played, what time the match starts and playing conditions.'
The player could also not control the coach or the coach's thinking. All the player had control over was himself, and as a professional sportsman the only guarantee a player could give was that he was in optimum physical shape for every game and that every day was an opportunity to improve his skills .
'Is that it?' asked a Bok player. That these were the only things the players had to worry about just emphasised how much there was to worry about, because being fit and skilled are not minor details in the life of a sporting professional.
Mitchell has ensured an environment that rewards those with something in their legs at 77 minutes, but if this Lions team is to develop into the real deal then hopefully the players will believe in the controllable elements of their sport and not seek comfort in hiding behind what they can't control.

8/12/14 Robin Williams Dies
Fine me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Tuesday, August 12, 2014
ROBIN WILLIAMS was found dead in his home near San Francisco yesterday morning. He was only 63. Police suspect suicide by asphyxia. In other words, he suffocated himself. It's not clear how. Robin's publicist issued a statement saying that he had been, quote, "battling severe depression of late." And his wife Susan issued a statement saying, quote, "This morning, I lost my husband and my best friend, while the world lost one of its most beloved artists and beautiful human beings. I am utterly heartbroken. On behalf of Robin's family, we are asking for privacy during our time of profound grief. As he is remembered, it is our hope the focus will not be on Robin's death, but on the countless moments of joy and laughter he gave to millions." Robin battled with drug and alcohol addiction for years, and recently went back to rehab to, quote, "fine-tune" his sobriety.
It's been about a month since TRACY MORGAN was released from the hospital, and while that's a good sign . . . he isn't out of the woods yet. On the "Today" show yesterday, Tracy's attorney said Tracy is still, quote, "struggling" with his health. He went on, quote, "But he's a fighter. He's had issues before that he's fought through, and he's fighting hard."
KENDALL JENNER is 18 years old, so she's not supposed to drink . . but not surprisingly, she thinks she's an EXCEPTION. The "New York Post" claims Kendall was so upset about being denied alcohol at a restaurant in New York . . . that she got up and walked out without paying. When the waitress chased after her, Kendall turned around, laughed, and threw some $20 bills at her face.
8/11/14 Kim K to Release Book
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Monday, August 11, 2014
Shocker alert: Kim Kardashian is publishing a book all about her.. and her selfies. It will be 352 pages of Kim, shot by Kim, and will be released in April of 2015. The book will cost you $20.
Meanwhile, Kim and Kanye West are "trying" to get pregnant.
A reporter asked her, "Is baby number two on the horizon?" She said, quote, "I'm hoping so. You know I kind of wish I was pregnant at the same time Kourtney is. She's like more than half way in, so you know, we're trying."
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's mother and cousin were recently in a serious car accident. They were hit head on by a drunk driver, and Johnson shared a scary looking photo of the wreckage that included two smashed cars and an ambulance in the background. The Rock said quote, "First reaction is to find the person who did this and do unrelenting harm to them. But then you realize the most important thing is my family lived thru this and we can hug each other that much tighter these days. Hug your own family tighter today and be grateful you can tell them you love them."
Michael Jackson's former housekeepers claims that he reportedly lived in awful conditions inside Neverland Ranch, often tracking animal poop throughout the house. One woman said, 'If you said something, he'd threaten to make doo-doo snowballs and throw it at you.' She also claims Jackson was a "pack rat" who obsessively collected items. Another maid claimed that Jackson suffered a bed bug outbreak at his home, and that everyone was "repulsed" by the horrible smell of his bedroom.
DAVID ARQUETTE was asked how he can run his nightclub Bootsy Bellows and remain sober. And he admitted that he's actually NOT sober. He said, quote, "If you want to be sober and [enjoy] the nightlife, good luck. Go to a lot of meetings." He also said he doubts he and ex-wife COURTENEY COX will be at each other's weddings.
8/8/14 Orlando Bloom with Blonde Beauty
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Friday, August 8, 2014
Apparently, MILEY CYRUS gives fans their money's worth when they pay $995 for meet-and-greets before her concerts. There's a picture online of one guy cupping Miley's boobs, and she's totally going along with it. She also pretended to make out with him.
DAKOTA JOHNSON does NOT want her mom MELANIE GRIFFITH seeing her get SEXUALLY DOMINATED in "Fifty Shades of Grey". Melanie says, quote, "[Dakota] was like, 'You guys cannot come. There's no way.' So we're not going." But she adds, quote, "I did see the Room of Pain . . . I did go in there and check it out."
We're always hearing divorce rumors about BARBRA STREISAND and JAMES BROLIN. But this is the first time they've involved KIM KARDASHIAN. The "National Enquirer" says Barbra is FURIOUS after finding out James was staring at Kim at a party in the Hamptons. To make matters worse, he and Barbara were in the Hamptons to celebrate their 16th anniversary.
Orlando Bloom threw a punch at Justin Bieber, and then met a babe. Bloom was spotted partying with a 20-year-old Swedish beauty in Ibiza just days after the Bieber brawl. Orlando was seen getting up, close and personal with the hot blonde, laughing and dancing together . They took a ride on a jetski, and later danced on the beach as the sun set.
8/7/14 Kanye West is Delusional
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Thursday, August 7, 2014
Before ANNETTE BENING locked him down in 1992, WARREN BEATTY had ABSOLUTELY NO CONTROL OVER HIS GROIN. It did what it wanted, when it wanted to. And according to a new book called "Star: How Warren Beatty Seduced America", his BOOTY COUNT is an astounding 12,755. That's the equivalent of one woman a day for 35 YEARS.
I think by now we can all agree that KANYE WEST has, at the very least, a slightly elevated opinion of himself and his place in the world. So as much as this will make you roll your eyes, you probably won't be the least bit surprised: Kanye believes that celebrities dealing with the paparazzi go through EXACTLY what blacks did during the Civil Rights movement. He says, quote, "In the '60s people used to hold up 'Die [N-word]' signs when my parents were in the sit-ins also . . . I equate it to discrimination. I equate it to inequalities.
KANYE WEST is afraid his daughter will be killed by a paparazzi drone. He told a lawyer during a deposition, quote, "Wouldn't you like to just teach your daughter how to swim without a drone flying? What happens if a drone falls right next to her? Would it electrocute her? Could it fall and hit her if that paparazzi doesn't understand how to remote control the drone over their house?" Meanwhile . . . Kanye and KIM KARDASHIAN are reportedly buying a $20 million house in Hidden Hills. It's pretty secluded, but it probably IS accessible by drone.
15-year-old CASSIDY STAY lost her parents and four siblings when they were murdered by an uncle. After she quoted Professor Dumbledore from a "Harry Potter" book at the memorial service, author J.K. ROWLING sent her a handwritten letter from Dumbledore and other gifts.
8/6/14Adam Sandler's Good Deed
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Wednesday, August 6, 2014
There's been a rumor for years that when GEORGE CLOONEY was a cast member on "Roseanne" during its early years, he once put a photograph of his MANHOOD on the Conner Family refrigerator, so everyone would see it the next day. And yesterday on "The Talk", ROSEANNE said it's TRUE. She said he even positioned Groucho Marx glasses over his junk, so that his penis was the NOSE. Sadly, no one knows where that picture is today. Roseanne said, quote, "About the second day it disappeared . . . I thought it would surface by now. Maybe they don't know it was George Clooney."
OLIVIA WILDE breastfeeds her newborn son Otis in the new issue of "Glamour" magazine. And she says, quote, "Breastfeeding is the most natural thing. I don't know, now it feels like Otis should always be on my breast."
Someone posted pictures of Dallas Cowboys owner JERRY JONES cavorting with two much-younger women. In one picture, he's cupping a woman's breasts. In another, the other woman's face is against his crotch.
An eight-year-old with leukemia made a video saying that he's ADAM SANDLER'S biggest fan, and invited him to BARBEQUE with him. Adam's people found out about the video, and Adam called the kid directly. It's unclear what they talked about . . . but supposedly they "hit it off."
