Find out everything you need to know about the expanded competition in the bumper 156-page issue of SA Rugby magazine.
We kick off our Super Rugby preview section with an idiot's guide to the new format (if you still don't know how it works after reading this, we can't help you). That's followed by three pages on each South African team (how they are shaping up, player signings/losses, fixtures, previous log finishes, numbers that matter etc) and one page on each of the Kiwi and Aussie sides.
Also in the new issue:
– The Springboks failed to make any progress on their end-of-year tour
– Is Victor Matfield too conservative to be Bok captain?
– The All Blacks capped off an outstanding 2010 with their third Grand Slam in five years
– The Wallabies were frustratingly inconsistent on their end-of-year tour
– If England are to seriously challenge for the World Cup, they will have to stand up to the big beasts of the game
– Behind the swagger lies a secret diary that is driving England wing Chris Ashton to new heights
– Why the Barbarians are still relevant in the professional era
– Yet again the World Cup schedule helps the big nations and hinders the smaller ones. Why can't the IRB make rugby's showpiece event fair to all?
– Plus: Why Stuart Abbott is back in SA, Tim Noakes on the Boks 'doping' controversy, Heinrich Brussow's injury battle, SA players in Europe

text: This is my first time doing the bag tag competition, and I read the rules from last year, but there is a bit of grey area to me. I noticed how last year tags 1-10 were gold tags and the rest were silver and there were certain rules about people with gold tags. I was wondering how it worked this year with not having gold tags, but instead having 1-25 red, 26-50 blue, etc. What are the rules on that, or is it still just going to be the same 1-10 thing and everyone else is fair game?

The Leopard 2 was an offshoot of the MBT-70 -- a cancelled joint development project between the USA and West Germany undertaken in the late 1960s. Even though the US had withdrawn from the project, the West Germans, under the auspices of Krauss-Maffei, continued research and development on the renamed Leopard 2 project. In 1977, the first production vehicles were delivered and exported to the smaller Dutch Army while the West German Bundeswehr waited a couple of years before it too was equipped with the powerful new main battle tank. The Leopard 2 is outfitted with a laser rangefinder, thermal-imaging equipment, and nuclear, biological and chemical defense system (NBC), and can conduct shallow amphibious operations. Its fire control system is unusual because the cartridge cases are combustible, which can lead to internal fires. The Leopard 2 has a 30% better power-to-weight ratio than the Leopard I, which results in increased cross-country mobility and a higher survivability rate on the battlefield. Sold Out!

Irrational Fear: Recliners
Finally, (I am skipping the WHOLE long story here even though that story makes me a hero), we found a good deal on a reclining sofa and reclining loveseat set. Since the cats have been rough on the old set and the price was right for replacement, we jumped on it. They'll be delivered today, Monday. (See how tricky I am about that considering I'm writing this on Sunday night? Brilliant!)
I may have subconsciously sabotaged the early part of the search because I'm actually afraid of recliners. See, recliners (in my experience) are where old people go to die. Everyone in my mother's family either died in their recliner or spent their last few months living in the chair because they couldn't sleep flat.
Grampa scooped himself a bowl of his favorite ice cream, sat down in his recliner, major heart attack. Game over. I can't eat vanilla ice cream with cherries anymore.
Gramma had advanced emphysema due to smoking which meant no lying down flat for her. Cough cough cough! I can relate - to the coughing, not to the smoking. She lived in her recliner until her final hospital stay. Still begging for another cigarette.
Great-gramma died in her recliner at 87 years old. Not a clue who she was or where she might be but that woman loved her cookies!
See what I mean? I'm more afraid of recliners than I am of hospital beds!
This is why I think I finally agreed to Joe's over-the-top decision to buy a reclining loveseat and sofa. They may recline but they're different from the Chairs of Death.
Now if we can just get someone to buy our two perfectly-good slightly-used loveseats from us. Because 3 loveseats, 1 sofa, 1 piano, 1 entertainment cabinet and 2 crazy cats = way too much furniture for my living room.

Can't you train the cats to play the piano? That way they will out of the way, sitting on the piano stool playing Scot
Joplin while you can relax in the recliner, puffing away. (Wait, you wouldn't be puffing.)

That is definitely a reason to be afraid of recliners. Geesh, how weird! Hopefully it helps you sleep.

Reclining sofas are definitely different from recliners! For one, you can every so often lay flat on the sofa itself instead of the recliner portion, just to show you CAN!

David and I looovvveee out reclining couches. And they definitely don't have the same "feeling" as recliners. Just as long as you don't put the sheet on with the little remote caddy over the arm. :)

Hopefully they will help you sleep AND give you the opportunity to start a new trend by not dying in your recliner!

and a partridge and a pear tree (sorry, just singing to the list of furniture you included at the end of your post)
what an interesting entry; sorry for all the misfortunes caused by recliners.....
we have such a unit that you describe and it is wonderful!! of course we don't have much room for them to recline since we down-sized, but they are comfortable for sleeping in
hope it does help you get a good night of sleep
I still would like to hear the whole story of how you become the hero of this all

No death yet to report.

- Leah Rubin said...
Yup, recliners are death traps... My mom spent a couple of years in one in a grim nursing home. They called it a Geri-chair. I called it the arms of Satan. But, she was comfy, apparently, and she didn't get bedsores. Ooh, sorry-- downer of me...
But great post-- and not so irrational.

Explore the Entrepreneurship.org Resource Center to find resources. Designed with entrepreneurs in mind, our resource center allows you to find materials to grow great ideas.
Obtaining financing to commercialize intellectual property is tricky, because intangible assets may have value independently of the business built upon them. In a dot-com world where knowledge is currency, cost and revenue are no longer adequate measures of value. Inventor David Martin's business is soaring on the wings of software that factors new elements into the equation for putting a price on intellectual property.
The founder of a software development business had already agreed to be acquired by one company and was ready to sign the documents. Then another company came calling with a better offer. Loyal employees and a working partnership with the buyer turned out to be the crucial assets constituting the value of the business. The author concludes that you need to shop around and negotiate to find out what your company is really worth.
Businesses become more valuable when they have certain characteristics that add up to strategic advantages in the marketplace. Regardless of a company's ultimate objective--growth, acquisition or IPO--its owners can create, maximize and sustain value by driving it toward those characteristics. A management consultant explains the tools of his trade and reminds readers that price and value are not identical. Some factors, such as growth, are industry-specific, which is why new-economy companies and their stocks are fetching such extraordinary prices.
A cutting-edge biotech company using transgenic mice to produce treatments for life-threatening diseases can spend years working hard toward a sensible business goal before seeing real profits. Still, when its stock soars 4000 percent in one year, investors sit up and take notice. Under the circumstances, a strategic plan and statistical models go a long way toward keeping the real value of the business in perspective.
Founding a business was so much fun for three Harvard juniors that they did it several times--until they found something that worked. They begged, bartered and borrowed resources, with a little help from their folks. And, because they knew their industry and added value as managers, they grew their temp agency for Web professionals into a permanent, international leader.
Small and growing companies are discovering lucrative new markets abroad. Developing countries are importing products, tech know-how and system support and offering franchising, licensing and distribution opportunities. If your company is expanding abroad, you need to know what you're getting into.
Kay Koplovitz saw few peers in broadcasting when she negotiated national cable rights to major-league sports as the founder of USA Networks. Today, as chair of the National Women's Business Council, she's working to help other entrepreneurial women form the networks they need to gain access to financing. To make sure more doors open wider, women's venture-capital forums and investment clubs are building strategic connections, providing money and changing the way lenders keep score. Still, says Koplovitz, there's more to accomplish in the coming years.
When Frieda Caplan went into business for herself, she was the only woman in the produce industry. That gave her a national presence, but the real reason for her success was that her company filled an important niche. Now it's the leading distributor of specialty fruits and vegetables. Along the way, the founder learned some important lessons about financing. And she's still going to work every day-with her daughters.
People infected with HIV, whether or not they have AIDS symptoms, are protected in the workplace by federal and state laws concerning discrimination and disability. These guidelines for education, testing and accommodation policies can help entrepreneurs avoid problems.
Sue Hesse left a corporate career and started her own business so she could cut down on her travel schedule and raise her children. By the time she sold it to spend more time with them, she had learned that even in an old-fashioned industry, numbers could outweigh gender. Performance-based incentive compensation turned out to be the strategy that propelled her and other women forward. Getting support from other entrepreneurs, male or female, is her other key to success.

text: I can only speak for myself. The only name I love was never in contention so my aim isn't love it's just being ok with. Pelicans of all the potential names is the only one I feel this strongly against. For me it has nothing to do with "new-ness" or it's uniqueness it's just an awkward name IMO. I was on the bandwagon for changing the name.

Women's Tennis Season Finishes with 5-1 Loss to Mount Olive in Tournament Quarters
April 20, 2013
SUMTER, S.C. - The 2012-2013 Pfeiffer University women's tennis season ended abruptly in the Conference Carolinas tournament quarterfinal round as fifth-seeded Mount Olive advanced past the fourth-seeded Lady Falcons with a 5-1 victory at the Palmetto Tennis Center. Pfeiffer sees their impressive campaign come to an end at 13-6.
The Lady Falcons quickly found themselves down in an 0-3 hole as Mount Olive swept all three doubles points with Taylor Lindsay and Valeria Mendoza had the closest match suffering a tough 9-8 defeat. In singles, all three points were earned in straight-sets by the Trojans helping the Lady Falcons season come to an end.

What are Independent Schools?
An independent school is a private school which offers off-campus enrollment to families who want their children to study at home. Colorado based schools provide a legal option for meeting the mandatory school attendance requirements in Colorado. These schools may provide any or all of the following support services: diagnostic testing, curriculum design, academic counseling, testing/evaluation, record keeping, holding test scores for non-enrolled families, teacher training, personal support, enrichment classes, newsletters, support groups, field trips, diplomas, graduation ceremonies. The legality of enrolling in a private school has been based in Colorado Case Law, dating from the Bohl Decision in 1988.
Christian Home Educators of Colorado does not offer legal advice or recommend any particular Colorado independent school.

The waterfowl habitats that Ducks Unlimited works to conserve provide mulitple benefits to society, including improved flood control, clean water, recreational opportunities, and climate regulation. As a whole, these benefits are often referred to as "ecological goods and services."
DU's work to restore, protect and enhance waterfowl habitat results in improved ecosystem services that may qualify as environmental "credits" that can be sold in a voluntary trading market. Trading programs have been established or are emerging for several environmental issues such as greenhouse gas emissions, water quality, wetlands protection or mitigation banking.
In the national goal toward a "no-net-loss" of wetlands and in recognition of societal growth and development needs, compensatory mitigation can offset authorized adverse impacts to wetlands, streams and other aquatic resources. These mostly unavoidable impacts occur when agencies such as state departments of transportation and private developers severely alter or destroy wetlands during construction. Under the Clean Water Act, development and construction projects that impact a wetland are required to mitigate the damage by creating a wetland of equal or greater functioning capacity.
Two options exist to provide mitigation for impacts to wetlands:
Ducks Unlimited's mitigation program can help developers meet their compensatory mitigation requirements.
Terrestrial ecosystems play an important role in regulating the earth's climate by cycling and storing various atmospheric elements. A robust strategy to combat global climate change will incorporate many practices to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and enhance storage capabilities, including terrestrial carbon sequestration. Land management practices such as wetland, grassland, and forest restoration can provide opportunities to sequester significant amounts of carbon. DU's Carbon Sequestration program can help supply these carbon offsets.
Point sources regulated by the Clean Water Act discharge directly into water bodies. Nonpoint sources, such as agricultural fields, discharge in a more dispersed manner above and below ground. Water quality trading allows a point-source discharger to meet CWA obligations by acquiring "credits" from other sources (point or nonpoint) that take measures to reduce the regulated pollutant. Landowners can become suppliers of water quality credits by adopting certain types of conservation practices. Specifically, credits can be generated by undertaking measures to reduce pollutant runoff into water bodies or restore wetland functions.

SURF CITY — Surf City Town Council has reversed its decision to allow golf carts to operate on the town's roadways.
Following a public hearing Tuesday night, the board unanimously rescinded an ordinance adopted in November giving golf cart operators an option to drive on streets where the speed limit is posted 35 mph or less.
Last month the council suspended the ordinance and asked the Surf City Police Department to research potential safety concerns and impacts to the department, which would inspect and issue permits to cart owners.
Surf City Police Maj. Ron Shanahan looked at five beach towns that allow golf carts to operate on roads.
One of those towns, Carolina Beach, has had "numerous incidents" since enacting a golf cart ordinance in 2008, he said. But other towns, including Pine Knoll Shores, where more than 200 carts are registered, and Caswell Beach, where only 12 carts are registered, reported no injuries.
Shanahan cited a 17-year study released in 2008 by the Research Institute at the Nationwide Children's Hospital that logged 148,000 golf-cart related injuries. A May 2010 Consumer Products Safety Commission report stated that there are about 15,000 golf cart-related injuries treated in U.S. emergency rooms each year.
"Based on the information, the chief and I feel the cons outweigh the pros," Shanahan said. "The cons are generally safety. They are not crash worthy. Golf carts were not designed for safety or general road use. They will generate more citizen complaints and therefore possible road rage incidents. Golf cart enforcement will take valuable time away from officers' daily duties."
Surf City Police Chief Mike Halstead said it would take a minimum of 30 minutes to inspect one golf cart for the purpose of issuing a town permit. He also said his officers predict golf carts would impede summer tourist traffic.
"I think this would be a nightmare for us," he said.
Surf City resident Ron Wiese said he was concerned about traffic congestion during summer months, when the town's population generally triples. "I think it would only amplify existing problems," he said. "As the police department said, they're going to get the brunt of this."
Golf cart owners whose carts are "street legal" may continue to drive on roads where the speed limit is 35 mph or less.

In autumn 2010, the Volvo Group became the world's first automotive manufacturer to join Climate Savers, in an agreement whereby the Group's truck brands committed to reduce the total amount of CO2 emitted during the lifetime of trucks manufactured and sold from 2009 to 2014, by 13 million tons, compared to trucks manufactured in 2008. This will be accomplished by launching the latest technology in fuel efficiency.
In January 1, 2012, Volvo Construction Equipment and Volvo Buses were included in the agreement. Thanks to improved fuel efficiency, the total amount of CO2 emitted by trucks, construction equipment and buses manufactured within the Volvo Group through 2014, will be reduced by more than 30 million tons, compared to vehicles manufactured in 2008. 30 million tons is the equivalent of the total carbon dioxide emitted by Sweden in a seven month period.
The Volvo Group works continuously to reduce carbon-dioxide emissions from products and production units, an effort that includes technologies for enhancing fuel efficiency and finding alternative fuels. Major resources are spent on developing such alternative drivelines as hybrid solutions and engines that are optimized for renewable fuels.
The agreement between Volvo and WWF applies for AB Volvo and the Volvo Group's brands Volvo Construction Equipment, Volvo Buses, Volvo Trucks, Mack Trucks, Renault Trucks, UD Trucks and SDLG. SDLG manufactures construction equipment in China, and will be the first Chinese company ever to join Climate Savers.
The seminar Corporate Climate Summit 2012 was held at the Loews Miami Beach Hotel, Miami, USA, on May 18, 2012.
The agreement between Volvo and WWF also states that:

Q:How would i store this if i was traveling. like right after i used it would i need to pat it dry? would i let it sit in the plastic container? and if it sat in the container would it stick to the bottom of it??? i would like to buy this one instead of the jungle since i could get more uses out of itAsked on 5/12/2015 by big vs jungle
3 answers
A:You should pat it dry in-between uses and also let it air dry a bit. If you just stick it right in the container it may stick.Answered on 5/15/2015 by Lana from Lush Direct
A:Honestly, if you're planning to travel with it, I would get Jungle. Jungle fits in their tins, whereas Big Solid doesn't. That is my biggest complaint and that it's not super conditioning.
Sent via the Samsung Galaxy S® 6, an AT&T 4G LTE smartphone-------- Original message --------Answered on 5/13/2015 by Anonymous
A:It would defiinitely get stuck to the bottom of a plastic container if it
came into contact with any moisture at all. However, I think if you stored
it in a plastic bag, it would disintegrate a little bit, but be okay for
travel .Answered on 5/12/2015 by Anonymous
Q:How much of this product are you supposed to use? I have shoulder-length hair.Asked on 6/13/2013 by Sara from Minneapolis, MN
2 answers
A:This can vary from person to person, and it's all about what's best for your hair! You can glide the entire bar along the length of your hair, or you can mix a small amount with water to apply to your hair on its own. It's best to start with a small amount, and then layer on more as needed!Answered on 10/3/2013 by Brandy from LUSH
A:I have long fine hair, which is half way down my back. This product seems a bit difficult to use at first. I think of it as a hair lotion. I run it over my scalp and then underneath my 'loose' hair. Then I run my fingers through all of my hair to make sure it gets through all of it. Let it sit for a minute or two. I don't need to blow dry. i just let it air dry and flip it once or twice. To would say I use about six to seven strokes of the product. Love the results.Answered on 7/6/2013 by auroraa9 from chicago
Q:I absolutely LOVE the fragrance of this product! Are there any other LUSH items you can recommend that have the same fragrance or that smell very similar? I mostly detect the vanilla-y notes, but the scent is much more complicated than that... I can't even describe it. So just other stuff that contains vanilla/vanilla absolute may not be quite the right thing... LOL, I'm mesmerized by this scent!Asked on 6/10/2013 by QuiltyKate
1 answer
A:The combination of vanilla, jasmine, and tonka is what gives BIG such a distinct, beautiful scent! It also contains both lemon and lime juice, as well as seaweed, which contributes to its ocean-like smell. Unfortunately, it is a one-of-a-kind scent, however, we do use a lot of these ingredients in a number of our products separately!Answered on 9/25/2013 by Melissa S from LUSH Direct
Q:If I leave my hair to dry naturally will this product make my hair greasy or effect my natural waves?Asked on 6/8/2013 by Moonshoes from UK

A:Big Solid Conditioner is our most lightweight conditioner, so it should not make your hair any greasier, even if you let it air dry. Just make sure to apply it to the ends of your hair and avoid the roots.Answered on 10/2/2013 by Kendra M from LUSH Direct
Q:I see with all the questions and answers it is saying that BIG shampoo and conditioners is not compatible with color treated hair YET, when I go to the store and ask this question, they all say its fine. I have highlights and some pink streaks.Asked on 3/12/2013 by Franny from New Jersey

A:I'm so sorry for the conflicting messages! Big Shampoo and conditioner is not good for colour-treated hair as the salt and citrus are both natural stripping agents. They are able to take out colour.Answered on 3/15/2013 by Anonymous
SHOULD I KEEP IT WRAPPED?Asked on 2/16/2013 by LIZ MAHER from SALT LAKE CITY UTAH

A:Keep it out of direct watershed, but you don't need to keep it wrapped. I have mine on my wire rack shower caddy and it depresses onto the wires.Answered on 3/11/2013 by cjcampbe from Pittsburgh, PA
A:We recommend keeping it in a cool, dry, place, with this in mind it would be best to keep "Big" outside of your shower when it is not in use. Once it is wet, it is also important to not let it sit in moisture. Investing in a soap wish that is able to drain would be a great advantage.Answered on 3/19/2013 by Anonymous
Q:I have curly, color-treated, will the Big Conditioner be compatible for my hair type?Asked on 1/30/2013 by Lise from Baton Rouge, LA
1 answer
A:Big Conditioner isn't the best for those with dry, curly, or color treated hair, as it is meant for those with limp, thinner hair looking to add some body. Because of the high sea salt content, we don't usually recommend this conditioner for color treated hair. Look for hair products that don't contain high contents of salt or citrus juices.Answered on 3/8/2013 by Melissa S from LUSH Direct
Q:How long would you say this product lasts based on how often you use it?Asked on 1/23/2013 by Anonymous

Q:I have fairly thick hair, but due to mistreatment it is VERY dry and brittle- while I don't want more volume I do want a moisturizing and very soft conditioner- how does Big work with hair that is already thick and full?Asked on 1/23/2013 by Anonymous
1 answer
A:Big Solid Conditioner is definitely moisturizing, but if you already have very thick and full hair and are in need of something more intense I would probably lean more towards Jungle conditioner, which tends to be more for those with your hair type.Answered on 8/14/2013 by Melissa S from LUSH Direct
Q:Is this safe for color-treated hair (traditional or henna)?Asked on 1/15/2013 by Anonymous
2 answers
A:Big Solid Conditioner does contain sea salt, which can sometimes cause a stripping effect on colour-treated hair. To be on the safe side, we recommend using products without salt and citrus in them while you have hair treated with colour.Answered on 8/14/2013 by Anonymous

Thank you,
SkiwitchAsked on 11/10/2012 by Skiwitch from Fort Wayne, IN by way of High Desert, CA
1 answer
A:Big solid conditioner may not be the best choice for those who have colored hair, as it contains a high sea salt content. Salt is a clarifying ingredient along with others such as citrus juices, which can fade color quicker than products that do not contain these ingredients.Answered on 11/10/2012 by Melissa S from LUSH Direct

A determinedly pushy person can shoulder through a crowd. But someone who keeps doggedly going despite all obstacles (not just crowds) is "soldiering on." Since "soldier" is rarely used as a verb in modern English, it's not surprising that a lot of people think that the expressions is "shouldering on."
There's a detailed discussion of this one at http://trochee.livejournal.com/154006.html.
Paul Brians
This one looks awfully familiar. I know we've seen it in the Forum here at least once before:
(One can Google soldier shoulder eggcorn)
It might have appeared before that one as well, but I didn't check too closely.
Actually, both of these are the same post—Trochee cross-posted to both her livejournal account and the forum. It's a good post, and it's too bad we never heard from her again (though her blog was updated as recently as October 5th).
It's a nice post.. There's something behind that post I could say.
Well, feel free—I'm listening, at any rate.
I spotted a particularly apt "shoulders on" in a blog comment about First Lady Michelle Obama: "THIS IS MICHELLE. No other first family has been scrutinised like this one (not in my lifetime) but she shoulders on and it honestly looks as if the scrutiny is a blessing because I truly believe that it has made her a stronger and much more confident woman." Mrs. Obama's arms and shoulders have, indeed, been the subject of much admiring attention. Here's the link to the post, which carries the redundant title "Evening Soiree":
Shouldering on is an exquisite eggcorn. Not as good, but interesting in its own quiet, determined way, is sojourning on.
Amtrak plaint
From the conversations I've had with the crew during my various journeys, the majority of employees are sojourning on in spite of management!
Boudoir heartbreak
I didn't know if Sonja and Daniel were together, or if she had been telling the truth, and despite her best intentions, Sonja had just been sojourning on in nothing more than unrequieted love.
Unrequieted love! I didn't notice that until the forum spellchecker underpinked it. I'll have to add it to Joe's "unrequired love" post.

Pioneer spirit on display at Cascade Mountain Men's show
Genna Martin / The Herald
Bill Walken and Cheryl Taylor sold handmade pottery at the annual Muzzleloading Arms and Pioneer Craft Show on Sunday at the Evergreen State Fairgrounds. They have participated in Mountain Man events for the past 13 years.

Period spirit bottles were on display as Ted Hoglund, of Thompson Falls, Mont., sold muzzleloading fire arms at the annual Muzzleloading Arms and Pioneer Craft Show on Sunday at the Evergreen State Fairgrounds.

Susan Gruner, of Snohomish, sold period clothing and weaponry with her husband, Joe, at the annual Muzzleloading Arms and Pioneer Craft Show on Sunday at the Evergreen State Fairgrounds. Gruner painted the large sign behind her stall.

Duane Spangler, of Whidbey Island (right), shows off his handmade bows to Allan Loken, of Kent, at the Cascade Mountain Men's annual Muzzle Loading Arms and Pioneer Craft Show on Sunday at the Evergreen State Fairgrounds. Go to HeraldNet.com for a photo gallery of the show.
Yet they had something in common, these people dressed in colonial and pioneer costumes at the Cascade Mountain Men's show Saturday and Sunday at the Evergreen State Fairgrounds.
They love history, they share conservative philosophies and they revere self-sufficiency, most said.
"These folks wish they could have lived in an earlier era," said artist and seamstress Susan Gruner, 61, of Snohomish. "They might have shown what they could make of themselves back then. For me, it's about getting back to my roots and living as my grandmother did when she moved to Eastern Washington from France."
Founded in mid-1960s by Seattle rifle maker Ted Fellowes, the Issaquah-based Cascade Mountain Men group is nearing its 50th year. Its annual show in Monroe has become a big event, said group spokesman Steve Baima of Bellevue.
Baima, 65, a retired Renton firefighter, also is a member of the Washington Historical Gun Makers Guild. The muzzle-loading firearms display and pioneer craft show was packed most of the weekend, Baima said, with historical re-enactors using the gathering as a social event and a place to trade.
Many of those at the show were dressed as mountain men, settlers and trappers on their way to a rendezvous to buy supplies and sell animal pelts.
Bothell's Bob Austin, 60, who works in fire management for the Boeing Co., at Paine Field, got started with Cascade Mountain Men because he enjoyed shooting a black powder rifle.
"I shot at a target and hit it, and, well, that was it," Austin said. "I was hooked. It's about learning how people used to do things and then living that experience."
The fairground's event center was filled with people who displayed and sold muzzle loader rifles, knives, bows and arrows, leather pouches, fur hats, Hudson's Bay blankets, linen and muslin shirts, beads, elk horn buttons, pewter mugs, moccasins and lots of history books.
People in costume had their photos taken next to a tepee set up in the middle of the floor.
Nearby, Bill Gruner and his wife, Susan, of Snohomish displayed her clothing and his metal forge work. Susan Gruner outfits the people who serve aboard the state's tallship, the schooner Lady Washington, and sells her work around the country.
Bill Gruner, 70, who retired as a middle school teacher in Union Gap, said it feels good to be a part of the mountain men gatherings.
"Modern life is flat; it's mundane," Gruner said. "Re-enactors have a rich life. We study people in history and take on those personas. It's about pride in our accomplishments, in learning to do the crafts people practiced to survive."

Jon New has sent me this two links:
According to them a game for a PC and then for a mobile devices is coming. Pay attention that in the preview we can see a Fate attribute. It seems like this game is going to be based on the FFG version.
What do You think, considering that all the artwork for expansions are FFG copyrighted, could be possible that we will get expansions and cards exclusive only to that game?

Most people with LADA still produce their own insulin when first diagnosed and do not require insulin injections. Some experts believe that LADA is a slowly developing kind of type 1 diabetes because patients have antibodies against the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. Several years after diagnosis, people with LADA must take insulin to control blood glucose levels.
LDL cholesterol (EL-DEE-EL) (koh-LESS-tur-ol):

The US Senate on Tuesday approved a bill that would allow a natural gas pipeline to be built through the Denali National Park in Alaska."A natural gas pipeline route through the park would not only be less expensive to build, but could also take advantage of the existing utility corridor, preventing disturbances to wildlife and environmental impacts on undisturbed lands further to the east or west of the park boundary," Senator Lisa Murkowski, Republican-Alaska, said in a statement Wednesday.

How does Zinc work?Zinc is needed for the proper growth and maintenance of the human body. Zinc is needed for immune function, wound healing, blood clotting, thyroid function, and much more.
Are there safety concerns?Zinc is safe for most adults when applied to the skin, or when taken by mouth in amounts not larger than 40 mg per day for adults age 19 and older. Routine zinc supplementation is not recommended without the advice of a healthcare professional. In some people zinc might cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, metallic taste, kidney and stomach damage, and other side effects. Using zinc on broken skin may cause burning, stinging, itching, and tingling.

Are you planning on going to the Buffalo Trace Tag tournament Sunday? I was going to go if you wanted to car pool and safe some cash. I figure whoever drove the other could pay the $5 entry fee into the park if you did want to carpool.
hey the guy that has your chair name is murph thats all i know he is an older guy always wears a bandana
let me know when u can get out, my schedule is pretty open on weekends except Sunday mornings. Good luck Wednesday!
Yep, that was me!
Sorry, but my second child is going to be born on Wednesday, so next weekend is definitely out! We'll get together though. It might be a couple of weeks, but it'll happen.
Thanks for the offer to get out and play a round I would like to do that soon. Were you the one at the clinic showing, jump putting and forehand shots? Could u get out this saturday the 29th for an afternoon round somewhere? Vettner, Iroquois either one is fine with me, let me know...appreciate your willingness to help.

Nope, never did.
Hey sorry about the delay reply did you ever get your inbox fix? If not I can clear it for you.
Hey man, I was wondering if you were ever going to be around downtown Louisville anytime soon. I live right next to UL so if you are ever around you can give me a call and we can meet up so I can buy those flat-tops from you. I tried calling you a couple days ago and never heard back, so I just wanted to try to get in touch with you again.
i've deleted all and it still says 100% full.
