benefits for pointing the buttcap to the ball on the forehand
benefits for pointing the buttcap to the ball on the forehand?
If you're going to try this, I must warn you to please avoid actively using your wrist to point the buttcap at the ball. It is a natural result of coiling and uncoiling our body. check out lockandroll tennis.
Forehand Lesson 12: Point the Buttcap for Power http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4850XNU503A
QuickTip: Pointing the Butt Cap Up at the Ball http://www.tennisone.com/newsletter/...ewsletter.html
I can't believe how anyone would teach it like that!
It's like that:
See this topic for how to apply this technique correctly:
If you have aproper stroke, the buttcap will "point" toward the ball without any thought or conscious control on your part.
Here's why- when you start the stroke, and begin to pull the racket forward to the ball, the head of the racket (remember inertia and the laws of physics) lags behind-- causing the buttcap to lead the way-- until the head, eventually, catches up to speed and swings around into striking position.
So, my advice-- don't practice pointing the buttcap-- rather, practice hitting a proper stroke. Use the buttcap (if you must) as a check-point (once in a while) just to make sure you are not forcing or over-controling the stroke.
I agree with those above that seem to think it should not be practiced. I think it is just a transitional part of the swing and you don't want to slow or pause your swing to "point the butt cap". My opinion is it happens on most swings but if you are under pressure and have to use a shorter swing, you may not even get to a position where the butt cap fully points at the ball. So, conceptually, it is OK as you will pass thru this phase on most swings but be sure to use the concept smartly. I prefer to think of letting the wrist to lay back a bit as you start to pull the arm/hand forward into contact, keep the wrist loose and without conscious adjustments into and thru contact, and then let the forearm roll or pronate into WW follow thru.
Done right, you get more of everything. More spin, more control, more power... and it's easier to hit that way.
There's a video from virtual tennis academy teaching it in a simple way. The video is called forehad ssc. If you want the detailed explanation, go see on the blog of tennis speed.
Go to Tennis One and check out Doug King's new video about applying proper torque on ball; get this right and you will be 'pointing the butt of the racquet at the ball'; that and focusing on the 'lag' or 'waggle'/power position...

Over the years I have heard people talk about how women are such horrible drivers. It wasn't until I actually got behind the wheel that I realized that it was actually true. They are always the ones who do some of the stupidest things while driving. There are bad male drivers as well but I find the whenever I see someone doing something stupid or having trouble parallel parking, it's a woman.
Not saying that all women are bad drivers. Occassionally you will come accross some decent women drivers, but these aren't them. Here are ten women who should have never got behind the wheel.
In the water is probably NOT the way you want to go!

State May Have To Release Inmates
7:31 am
Tue October 15, 2013
California Loses Supreme Court Prison Ruling
The Supreme Court has rejected California's appeal of a lower-court order that could force the state to release thousands of California prison inmates before they complete their sentences.
The justices did not comment on their order yesterday, which leaves in place the earlier ruling by a panel of three federal judges requiring California to reduce its prison population by an additional 9,600 inmates to improve conditions.
California Governor Jerry Brown has argued that the state cannot meet that goal without releasing dangerous felons and jeopardizing public safety.
In 2011, the justices ruled that the judges had the authority to order California to reduce inmate overcrowding as the key condition for improving prison medical care.
The decision comes as state officials are in settlement talks with attorneys representing inmates.

AWOL Tseng scratched from tourney
Yani Tseng overslept on Wednesday and missed her 9:10 a.m. pro-am tee time. As a result, Tseng was withdrawn from the Kia Classic, per LPGA regulations.
Tseng, who lost her world No.1 ranking last week to Stacy Lewis, was the defending champion in the tournament at Carlsbad, Calif. She is traveling this week without manager Naya Hsu, who is typically by Tseng's side. Hsu is back in Taiwan on business.
"I'm embarrassed to admit that I wasn't feeling well last night and accidentally overslept and missed my tee time for the pro-am this morning," Tseng said in a statement. "I was extremely excited to compete this week to defend my title at the Kia Classic and to try to regain the No. 1 spot.
"This was an unfortunate mistake and I want to apologize to Kia, my sponsors and all of the fans."
Tseng will compete next in two weeks at the year's first major, the Kraft Nabisco Championship.

changed parts easily, following the video. Problem was the BRAKE CAM DRIVER, the plastic piece that fits around the shaft near the drum. The old one was visibly torn up, the pegs worn off, the whole thing worn down. The problem with the repair was the video showed an "E ring" holding it on and my washer had no E ring, had nothing hold it. It just sat there. Installed it anyway, although I was worried it was too loose. Sure enough there was a problem. it spun initially then started that ugly clicking noise. turned off washer immediately, disassembled again, and prayed. I found a large flat washer to take up the slack between the clutch and the plastic brake cam driver, reassembled, tightening the nuts a fair bit tighter than before. both the nuts on the transmission and the nut on top the agitator. works perfect!

A massive supply of spare parts and ammunition helped the Syrian air force play a major role in the campaign the Assad regime launched two years ago against the rebels.
"The shape of the Syrian air force was very bad, and without massive urgent Russian help it could not use its old inventory to attack the rebel strongholds," said Yiftah Shapir, head of the Middle East strategic balance project at the Israeli Institute for National Security Studies.
The ongoing war and losses the Syrian air force suffered led to its inventory being halved.
Of the 350 operational fixed-wing warplanes the Syrian air force had two years ago, about half are now out of action because of combat losses or overuse that even spare part supplies from Russia cannot fix.
Shapir said the most advanced fighters the Syrians have are the MiG-29s that were supplied in the 1980s.
These are designed mainly for air superiority and have limited ground attack capabilities.
The two other types – the MiG-23BN and MiG-27 – are very old, and have suffered badly from a lack of spare parts and poor maintenance.
It is not likely that Russia will supply advanced fighter jets to Syria before the civil war is over.
"The Syrian air force is hitting the rebels in very primitive ways, but it cannot pose any threat to air forces in the region like the Israeli air force," Shapir said.
Despite this, the Israeli air force is on high alert in the north – especially because Syria allegedly has ballistic missiles armed with chemical warfare agents.

How heavy is too heavy II ?
Silmaril, I believe older boats, even old racing boats, are normally "less radical" than most of modern boats and have a smoother sea movement.
They have a less flat hull and have more ballast, depending less on form stability.
I own a modern 36 footer ( length overall 37.4 ft) that is not even a racer, (only a fast cruiser) and it displaces only 10,361 lbs for a ballast of 2,954lbs. This displacement in a flat hull and 721 sq feet of sail makes a fast easy planning boat, but also (I believe) a less comfortable boat than yours in what regards sea motion.
Of course, this light displacement, which is what I want for the use that I give to the boat (costal, with some short ocean passages, like Madeira and Canary Islands), makes this boat not an ideal boat for Oceangoing, I mean go anywhere boat, even if it is U.E. classified as a class A boat (oceangoing).
You can have a 36ft much better suited for ocean travel, but it would be a lot heavier and a lot slower.
I am looking for the right type of boat to go anywhere as fast as possible, safely and with some comfort . I will only need it in 5 years or so, when I will have more time to travel.
I don''t want a slow boat, so I agree with you that the right size is between 40 and 45 (to handle the boat alone) and I don''t want a difficult boat to handle because I am not going younger and I want to sail and travel till an old age.
The balance will be between size, weight and price, knowing that a smaller boat will have to be proportionally heavier and a bigger boat will have a more costly maintenance, higher marina prices, and it will be a lot more difficult to handle in small marinas.
Everything considered (including price) I will look for a boat between 38 and 43 ft.
I know what I don''t want, but I still don''t know what will be the better choice.
I want a modern boat that makes full use of technology and design advances.
Lots of different choices out there.
The Vailant 42 is a great boat (and very expensive, too expensive to me anyway) but I think that there are other boats that offer the same qualities with a better price and performance.

Location/character. Staff was friendly. Great value for price. Historic nature of the building. Bathroom remodel very nice.
Room was above noisiest part of bar. Couldn't be helped.
did not bring more coffee & clean towels
I enjoyed having a full kitchen that was fully stocked. The ambiance was very nice and rustic too. They obviously took pride in the property. Rates were good too.
I didn't like the fact that there was so much to do but the kids couldn't do ANYTHING without me being there. I'm a single mom and came alone. They were responsible enough to do certain things unattended.
There is so much available to do. Great room, comfortable bed. Enjoyed everything about our stay! :)

The retina is the light sensing tissue at the back of the eye. It is nourished by tiny blood vessels that bring blood into (arteries) and out (veins) of the eye. A retinal vein occlusion means that a vein in the retina has become clogged. The blockage causes a painless decrease in central or peripheral vision, resulting in blurry or distorted vision.
There are two types of retinal vein occlusions, branch retinal vein occlusion and central retinal vein occlusion. Branch retinal vein occlusion involves a blockage of a smaller vein, which then dilates and leaks fluid and blood into the retina. In a central retinal vein occlusion, the main vein exiting the eye becomes blocked within the optic nerve, causing more extensive retinal bleeding and swelling.
Retinal vein occlusions are more common in older individuals as well as persons with hypertension, diabetes, or glaucoma. You can't diagnose a retinal vein occlusion by looking in the mirror since your eye will usually look and feel normal. The retinal specialists at Bennett & Bloom Eye Centers perform thorough dilated eye exams and other specialized tests to properly diagnose and assess your eyes for treatment. We offer complete, ongoing eye care using the latest technology and techniques to treat this condition. Read more.

Have a bunch of left over fabric? Show it off with this Fabric Scrap Photo Frame from I Love to Create. Made with a variety of fabric scraps, this home decor accent is great for showing off everything from a valued prize to an adorable couple on their wedding day! This is a simple project to make and you can have a lot of fun mixing and matching fabric and embellishments.
- Picture Frame
- Sparkle Collage Pauge
- Scrap Fabric
- Random Crafty Curios
- Scissors
- Liquid Fusion Glue
The first you need to do is make yourself strips of fabric. I had an old red and white western shirt that fit my color theme perfectly.
Next using sparkly Collage Pauge wrap your fabric strips around your frame. This will take several strips and you want to get them pretty saturated so that you can easily smooth down rough edges and bumps.
Once your Collage Pauge has dried completely you can embellish your frame any way your heart desires. I put together a prize ribbon and vintage Kanzashi (Japanese hair flower). Using Liquid Fusion glue attach your adornments to the frame.
- All that is left to do is fill your frame and set it out proudly!

New Columbia 22 owner/member
I am relatively new to sailing. I bought a Columbia 22 in 2009, used it for a season and been working on a "short" restoration project ever since which is just wrapping up in time for the upcoming season. I sail out of Des Moines, Wa, mostly Southern Puget sound. Love to hear tips on single-handling for this size boat.

The show streams in a loop on iTunes News/Talk Radio.
They are two American business people who have traveled extensively throughout Libya, came to know tribes and tribal leaders, and were escorted to places of atrocity, escaping the country through courageous acts of good will from local individuals. What they describe is after Ghadafi, but they branch into short history lessons.

First Look: Larfleeze Christmas Special!
by No_Name on
What do you get for the Lantern who wants everything?
In the most recent issue of Green Lantern, we saw Hector Hammond take control of the Orange power battery, so we were left wondering, what will happen to Larfleeze? Generally speaking, there has really only ever been one Agent Orange, that is of course until Blackest Night when Lex Luthor became one too. Many of you were probably left wondering, what will happen to Larfleeze? Will Hector Hammond be the new Agent Orange, or will we be seeing a new Orange Lantern team? Based on the teaser image which we first caught over at DC's The Source blog, it looks like Larfleeze might be keeping the power of the Orange Lantern afterall! DC writer and fan favorite Geoff Johns will be helping DC celebrate the holiday season by penning Larfleeze's very own Christmas special, with art by Brett Booth and a truly gorgeous cover by Gene Ha.
There's no one that wants more for Christmas than Larfleeze, and he'll stop at nothing to obtain everything Christmas related- including Santa Claus?! The holiday special will be hitting stores this December, just in time for Christmas!
What do you guys think? Do you think we will see an Orange Lantern corps? Do you think Larfleeze will regain control of the Orange Power Battery? Are you looking forward to the Larfleeze Holiday special? Will you be picking up the issue?

The Armitage class was designed with a similar physical appearance, but it isn't the same. It is still technically Its own ship design, so I think it should only be appropriate that people forget about the Akira and embrace the Armitage as the superior version of the ship that everyone wanted.
I'm going to throw the Akira skin on it when I get it. I just wish they would unlock the Mat 6 for it.

Posted June 14, 2007
In a weak attempt to 'explain' why he and the other 2 members of the Memphis Mafia helped co-author 'Elvis: What Happened?', there is way too much 'I', 'Me' and 'my career in films' in this new book. No one cares about you, Sonny, just about Elvis. Mr. West also seems to take pride in the many instances where he either broke someone's nose, pummeled someone, or whatever else he did physically, in the name of protecting his boss, including how many 'manly' injuries he sustained over the long haul. Who cares? The book could have been cut by about 1/3 if this unappealing and unnecessary stuff had been left out. No one cares about Sonny West. They do, however, care about the legend that is Elvis Presley. There was also too much of the 'we wrote this book to save Elvis'life' nonsense. If his loved ones, professionals, etc. could not get the man to admit he had a problem, did these 3 actually think they could convince him to go into rehab by exposing his drug problems to the world? There are so many instances of Presley rage throughout the book, known already by most Presley fans, did they actually think a magical lightbulb would go off over Elvis' head to show him that in fact he needed rehab? Quite frankly, I think the book was the straw that broke the camel's back. Also, for someone who is such a Christian, it is interesting that he bashes so many people he knew along the way, including Presley's wife and child. This book was a complete joke.

Leave it up to Wyoming Valley Conference teams to ruin Steve Stahl's last dance.
Stahl, who has been leading Coughlin's wrestling program for the last seven years after being an assistant under Hall of Fame coach Dana Balum for 12 years, will no longer be the head coach for the Crusaders after this season because he's taking an administrative role with the school district.
"It didn't hit me yet. When it's going to hit me is going to be next October when we're preparing," he said. "But we'll see what happens. I'm sure I'll be involved in the program some way, shape or form. But that's how it goes; we had a good run."
While he's still getting some royal treatment from opposing coaches, he's not getting any gifts — or gifted victories for that matter — on his farewell tour.
Instead, WVC Division I teams have been taking it to Stahl's team. Struggling with a plethora of injuries and not being able to fill the two lower weights, Coughlin hasn't won a dual in the division at all this season. This is a team that is just two years removed from representing the conference in the District 2 Class 3A duals final. It was the first time the program ever reached the championship dual. In 2012, he led the Crusaders to a share of the Division I championship, the first time the program ever claimed the D-I title, for the first division championship in eight seasons.
Senior Paul Cole, one of the team's leaders, hasn't seen any action yet due to a shoulder injury during the football season. Early results were that he would miss the entire wrestling season. But he has been cleared to wrestle and could rejoin the lineup this weekend.
Still, the Crusaders have had a successful stint with Stahl leading the way. In 2011, he coached Josh Popple to the state final. Popple is one of just three wrestlers in school history to reach the finals of the PIAA Championships. In the previous two seasons, Stahl coached Brad Emerick to a pair of state medals.
While with Balum, he was an important piece of Justin Accordino's run to numerous medals and accolades in high school. Accordino became an NCAA All-American two years ago wrestling for Hofstra.
"It was a good run. You work with these kids and these parents and you have a good time," Stahl said. "I don't want to think about it yet. We have a lot of work to do this season."
Stahl didn't mention who his successor would be, but there certainly isn't a lack of coaching expertise on his staff.
Rubin Prophete has been his top assistant for a few years, while Bob Hawkins has always seemed to be around with Stahl. Stahl joked that there's as many coaches on his staff as wrestlers. Among notables who are on the staff are former GAR heach coach Frank Castano and Crusaders' junior high coach Tom Belles, who has helped start prominent careers for many Coughlin wrestlers.
"I have my pick. If the administration asks me I'll tell them who I like, but we haven't got to that point yet," Stahl said. "We have a great wrestling tradition at Coughlin and I hope it stays alive.
"This year, I'm not doing such a hot job, but it shouldn't reflect on the coaching staff. These guys aren't even getting paid and are putting out the effort they do. … I think the program will survive."

The Wings Know It Will Take Stephen Weiss Time To Get In Game Shape
by Paul on 11/27/14 at 05:36 PM ET
Comments (7)
from Ansar Khan of Mlive,
Two games is a small sample size, but the Detroit Red Wings are encouraged by what they have seen from Stephen Weiss.
Jimmy Howard called him a great addition. It's like adding a potential top-six forward one-quarter of the way through the season without relinquishing anything.
"Once he gets his confidence and game shape ... you have to remember he hasn't played that many games in the last year or so," Howard said. "Right now it's baby steps, but he's doing a great job for us. Hopefully he can keep going and then slide over to that center spot."...
"It's a lot easier with (Datsyuk) in the middle," Weiss said. "He can take care of mistakes that Helmer and I make. But certainly as a first game together it wasn't anything spectacular in terms of possession. But we got some bounces. It was nice to contribute."
Oh, in case you keep track of early rankings, Sportsnet has the Wings at 18th in their power rankings.
added 4:51pm, Nicholas J. Cotsonik of Yahoo takes a look at Weiss too...

The overnight report: Red Wings-Flyers wrap-up and thoughts on a team in progress
by George Malik on 11/27/14 at 06:03 AM ET
Comments (13)
The more I think about the Red Wings' 4-2 win over the Philadelphia Flyers on Wednesday night, and the more that I look at the standings with interest for the first time this season, the more I think that being 12-5-and-5 on American Thanksgiving--a.k.a. Ken Holland's, "If you're in the playoff picture now you're probably going to make it, and if you're not, you're probably not" mark--the more I think that the Wings are where they should be.
I'm still a believer in the concept that the Red Wings needed two full seasons to realize their full post-Nicklas Lidstrom potential and forge an identity as a younger, faster, more potent and yet slightly "thinner" team, and on Wednesday, I thought that the Wings' performance was reflective of a team in the process of finding its edge.
The fact that the Wings took advantage of the struggling Flyers and their absolutely dreadful road record, at this point in the year at least, felt more like something that had to be done as opposed to something to hang one's hat upon.
Wings coach Mike Babcock made a particularly intriguing set of comments after the game, as noted by MLive's Ansar Khan...

Quick take, Red Wings-Flyers: A slightly lackadaisical but relatively smooth win
by George Malik on 11/26/14 at 11:29 PM ET
Comments (28)
The Detroit Red Wings' 5-2 win over the Philadelphia Flyers was sometimes dominating, sometimes scary and sometimes a whole lot of watching gravy grow skin in between moments of individual and team greatness.
Jimmy Howard was incredibly solid early, late and overall, the Wings were dreadful for the first 10 minutes of the 1st period and the first 10 minutes of the 3rd period, and just as half the damn crowd was gone by the 3rd period to enjoy Thanksgiving Eve, the Wings had mentally checked out to the point that one was worried that it'd be another "Ottawa game," if not a carbon copy of the Wings' blow-it game vs. Philly back in October...
But the Wings got their shit together in time to ensure that the Flyers never got any closer than 4-2 in the 3rd, Pavel Datsyuk scored 2 goals in his return from a groin injury, Jakub Kindl of all people had two assists, Stephen Weiss had a goal and an assist, Darren Helm had two assists, the PK was 3-for-4 and the PP was 1-for-3 on a night that the Wings needed to persevere against both the Flyers and the bad habits they're still trying to shake on "American Thanksgiving" eve.

Presuming a little too much shiny happiness regarding Alfredsson's retirement and a Sens reunion
by George Malik on 11/26/14 at 05:36 PM ET
Comments (0)
ESPN's Pierre LeBrun just penned an article confirming that Daniel Alfredsson will announce his retirement from the NHL next Thursday, and that's yielded some stupidity from Darcy Tucker and what I'd delicately describe as an overly-optimistic set of expectations for December 4th's festivities from the Ottawa Citizen's Wayne Scanlan:
Alfredsson, the longtime captain of the Ottawa Senators, returns to the fold next Thursday, Dec. 4, to announce his retirement from the NHL during a media conference at the Canadian Tire Centre.
Fittingly, it's 'Throwback Thursday' at the rink, a night for Senators heritage jerseys and now, a Senators legacy player: No. 11, the man affectionately known throughout the community as "Alfie."
In town for a game that night will be the New York Islanders, a team the Senators used to toy with back in Alfredsson's tenure (times have changed, the Islanders are a juggernaut, go figure). Expect numerous game night interruptions for chants of "Alfie!" Expect the crowd to monitor the time of each period, counting down the seconds to that moment when the clock shows 11:11.
Knowing Alfredsson, he didn't ask [Bryan] Murray to "go for a drive" just to talk about himself and his retirement. He wanted to speak to his former GM in the wake of the revelation that Murray's cancer was incurable. It wasn't their first conversation in recent weeks, but it was an important face-to-face meeting.
The result – Alfredsson is to be a Senator for life, with a future place in the organization if he so desires. As you were. All is right with the world again.
Alfredsson will be remembered as a Senator, but he lives in Birmingham, Michigan now, and while the ailing Bryan Murray "went for a drive" with Alfredsson last week, I'm sure that Ken Holland, Ryan Martin and Kris Draper will lobby #11 to begin his post-hockey career learning the ropes in Detroit.
That, and he may want to go back to Sweden, too. It's up to Alfredsson, and a year-and-a-half doesn't necessarily mend all wounds.

Chris Chelios rankles some feathers while discussing Brendan Shanahan
by George Malik on 11/26/14 at 05:05 PM ET
Comments (8)
I don't have a problem with Chris Chelios's take on Brendan Shanahan--given that Chelios, whose book tour for his Memoir, Made in America, will resume in suburban Chicago on December 2nd, was a staunch advocate for the NHLPA during two lockouts, while Shanahan not only reached out to the NHL during the 04-05 lockout but also ended up working for the league...
But Chelios appeared on TSN 1050's Leafs Lunch today, and his suggestion that the Maple Leafs' president is a "politician" of course rankled some feathers:
Hall of Fame defenceman Chris Chelios joined Leafs Lunch to discuss his autobiography "Overtime" sharing some stories from the book and why it was time to write it. He also discussed some candid comments he made about his relationship with Maple Leafs President Brendan Shanahan in the book, and whether Shanahan is suited for the Leafs job.
As far as I understand the situation, Shanahan left the Red Wings in the summer of 2006 because he felt that Mike Babcock gave veteran players no deference and because he wanted to further his post-playing career, which probably was going to be helped by playing in Montreal or New York instead of Detroit, but that was his prerrogative, and it's Chelios's prerrogative to suggest that his former teammate isn't his favorite human being.
And it's Toronto Sports Talk Radio's prerrogative to turn this into an international incident, I suppose:

The overnight report: Red Wings-Flyers set-up: Wings aim for 3-in-a-row vs. road-struggling Flyers
by George Malik on 11/26/14 at 06:17 AM ET
Comments (4)
The Red Wings laid an egg when they dropped a 4-2 decision to the Philadelphia Flyers on October 25th, but--in theory--tonight's NBCSN-televised "rematch" (7:30 PM EST on FSD Plus/CSN Philly/NBCSN/97.1 FM) between an 8-9-and-3 Flyers team and the strong-on-home-ice 11-5-and-5 Wings should yield a strong opportunity for the Wings to extend their winning streak to three games for the first time this season (the Wings did go "unbeaten" in 3 via 2 wins and a shootout loss at the end of October).
In practice, the Wings are a team that tends to do a fine job of goofing up when "the odds are in their favor," and while the Flyers have lost 5 straight games, including a 1-0 shootout decision to the Islanders on Monday, Steve Mason stopped 46 shots in that effort, Jakub Voracek is always good against the Wings and is tied for the league lead in scoring...
And this is one of those, "The underdog is due" games that scares me (for lack of a better term).
The Flyers' scribes didn't cover Tuesday's practice (Michael Raffl gave an interview to the Flyers' website, but he's got a "lower-body injury"), and as NJ.com's Randy Miller noted, the Flyers theoretically might be preoccupied with this weekend's games...

The good, the political and the speculatory

I've thought about putting these articles in the overnight report--I was quite frankly not up to an evening entry as this whole physical endurance thing is affected by depression, and I'm still coming up for air as it were--but they don't belong in a Wings-Flyers spiel, not even a rambly one.
This is the best part of my job, reporting on the kind of things that remind us that the players who chase pucks for a living make their biggest impacts off the ice. The Red Wings' Community Relations Department posted several Instagram photos from the Wings' annual pre-Holiday Season visit to Children's Hospital on Tuesday evening...

Kavita Sharma stays "connected" through most of her waking hours, spending at least 10 hours a day on the Internet. The 20-year-old sophomore is hard-wired to be engaged, or constantly distracted, with the enormous range of information "out there". She uses Google for everything she needs to know and has at least 30 browser tabs open on her Mac at any given time.
Kavita does not retain everything she reads on the Internet but remembers random bits of information. "I like to flit from one web page to the other. The great thing about Google searches is that it leads you to completely obscure information that you weren't looking for in the first place."
Sitting with a bunch of friends at a local watering hole just the other day, she wanted to know more about the Kamikaze (a shot of vodka, lime juice and triple sec). "I wanted to know about the origin of Kamikaze and found that there is an International Bartenders Association that sanctions a list of official cocktails…the word Kamikaze is Japanese for 'divine wind' and also refers to suicide pilots of World War II," she says and adds for good measure that the first instance of suicide attacks goes back to the ancient Chera dynasty in India.
Curiosity about a cocktail led Kavita to pick up bits on the Japanese language and military history as well as the origins of modern terrorism.
Kavita, in many ways, is like millions of other Net Geners who know a little something about everything but in minimal depth. Spread thin and wide, they acquire fragments of information from Wikipedia and Google as they surf the information highway, never really stopping to delve deep into any subject. They are the Pancake People. The evocative term was first coined by American playwright Richard Foreman and gained popularity as a more disparaging synonym for the internet-dependent generation.
Here's what Foreman had to say: "I see within us all (myself included) the replacement of complex inner density with a new kind of self-evolving under the pressure of information overload and the technology of the 'instantly available'. A new self that needs to contain less and less of an inner repertory of dense cultural inheritance — as we all become 'pancake people' — spread wide and thin as we connect with that vast network of information accessed by the mere touch of a button."
He goes on to express horror at a world that has lost the thick and multi-textured density of a deeply-evolved personality. Foreman's pancake allusion caught on in the West and had academia and columnists deconstructing the Millennials — people born between 1980 and 2000.
In India, the term is little known but 23-year-old HR professional Reema relates to it immediately. "I would call myself a Pancake Person," she says, adding that she is constantly on her iPhone and is glued to Google for everything but nothing in particular.
"I look up recipes, read about mythology, political news, and keep up with the goings on," she says. Reema and her husband frequently whip out their smartphones whenever they have an argument — "once, about whether thermocol has plastic or not" — to look up "facts" from the Internet to throw at each other.
She also uses a lot of apps and likes 9gag — a social media website that is credited with bringing Internet memes to the mainstream. "It is like reading a paragraph in pictures," she says.
"I recall vague stuff, like I read somewhere that hybrid cars can do more damage to the environment than regular ones...it had something to do with nickel in the battery," she says.
Sri Raj, a 29-year-old businessman based in Delhi, says he meets a lot of "Pancakes", especially, now, during the election season. "Everyone seems to have an opinion on politics these days based on arbitrary information obtained on the Internet."
It is getting a little irritating, he says, with the online pro-and-anti Narendra Modi armies who mostly copy-paste half-baked summaries from articles and blogs. Sri Raj doesn't care much about Indian politics and isn't ashamed to admit it. "If I needed to make my mind up on (LK) Advani or Sonia (Gandhi), I'd pick up three biographies, read them and then talk," he says. He admits he is old-school and has very specific interests. He doesn't feel the need to know everything, like the Pancake People do.
It is still early to say whether the Internet and the way we consume information on the web will have a lasting impact on our social behaviour and the way we think. But experts believe constant digital distractions are bound to pose challenges to our ability to learn and focus. An average user often leaves web pages in 10 to 20 seconds.
Instant information can also impair our ability to delay gratification. Dr Dherandra Kumar, director at Psyindia and consultant (clinical and child psychologist) at Apollo Hospital, says the percentage of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) cases has doubled in the past five years. "But it's not just the Internet that's causing it, people are more aware now so they seek help unlike before."
A new field of study, interruption science, tells us that continuous electronic distractions affect our stress and frustration levels. Sunil Abraham, executive director at Centre for Internet and Society, says it is not technology per se but inappropriate use of technology that is to be blamed. In other words, the more we depend on technology to baby-sit us the less we are capable of doing things.
While there's a fear that Pancake People may tend to get entrenched in their own perspectives, looking up and reading things that only conform to their belief systems, Abraham points to another truth. "If I am on Twitter and use the hashtag, there's no way I can isolate myself from the views of others," he says. But isn't there a danger in treating everything you read on the Internet as gospel truth? "Just like we need legal literacy, we need media literacy to consume responsibly and have tools to establish truth in the networked public sphere."
It's natural for the older generation to feel nostalgic about old patterns and lament change. And, so, some feel Foreman was being a Luddite. "Yes, we are distracted and diffused but I see nothing wrong with it," says Bhairav Acharya, a 31-year-old Bangalore-based lawyer. He is uncomfortable with the moral overtone in Foreman's statement. "Just because information is accessible, doesn't mean it has no value."
"Also, those who want to delve deep will do it anyway irrespective of whether they do it on their laptops or in a public library," he says, adding that the Internet has taken academic research to new heights.
Jacob Joseph Puthenparambil, lecturer at Singapore Management University, feels the abundance of information has also meant that the bar has been set higher for the final output of work. "There will be those who will use the Internet to take shortcuts but there will also be those who will use it as a tool to produce a better body of work. If we encourage the latter kind of students, it would make for a richer academic experience," he says.
The Internet, then, like any other technology, has its flip side. But that is not to say that the technology itself is bad. For many, the Internet can mean easy access to trivia, which is fun but ultimately meaningless. But the Internet is also uniquely situated to help people divine inter-disciplinary currents. Someone interested in and searching for information about, say, Virginia Woolf can proceed to read about stream of consciousness which, in turn, can dovetail into its relationship with psychoanalysis, and so on. There is a lot on offer and to say that it is detrimental to our attention spans or learning abilities is perhaps to throw the baby out with the bathwater.
Pancake paranoia: a counterview
Nishant Shah,
Research director at the Centre for Internet & Society
The term Pancake People sounds like an interesting, if another misguided attempt at demonising a particular generation. There has always been a critique of digital natives — they are too soft, they are too scattered, they are too apolitical, and almost all of it is from the vantage points and hindsight of the old looking at the young.
There are many false presumptions in these declarations — one, there is a nostalgic creation of the older people that when they were young, they were focused and dedicated and committed. However, a historical analysis shows us that it is the prerogative of the young to be experimental, to be trying out different things, and to be scattered across a spectrum of interests, trying to figure out who they want to be.
The plug-and-play technologies and the distributed networks of the digital do concretely aid in these practices, but it, by no means, implies that these young digital natives are spreading themselves so thin that they are helpless. Just a quick glimpse at things from The Ugly Indian to the Blank Noise Project in India, from Tahrir Square to the Sunflower Revolution in Taiwan shows us that the young are as committed, if not more, in shaping their futures responsibly, and their multi-modal engagement actually allows them to approach it in ways that were not possible for older generations.
The argument about 'thinness', and 'loss of inner density', so to speak, was made in the 12th century when we moved from manuscript cultures to the print cultures as well. Or it was a paranoia that was voiced when the telephone became mass market — where people were scared that not being able to see the person at the other end would produce a civilisational collapse, because nobody would ever meet each other again, everybody would lie, cheat on their spouses and the world as we know it would be over.
Richard Foreman's idea of loss is just a nostalgic hankering for things as they were, even though in those days, all we did was complain about things as they were.

We have always had a first aid kit on hand. We keep ours in a tool box, and it stays in the barn and travels in the trailer with us where we go if we are hauling horses. As many other people have suggested - if there is trouble to be found our Saddlebreds always seem to find it.
Pros: any horse owner knows this will come in handy
Cons: It never seems to have exactly what you need!

TwitterTweet for K2
Extension Specific, K2 extensions
Joomla K2 TwitterTweet is a simple but powerful plugin for K2, that automatically tweets your new articles to your Twitter page.
This way all your Twitter followers instantly knows when your site have updated contents.The plugin will automatically tweet your article title along with a tinyurl to your article. It will also create #hashtags based on the K2 tags in our article. As simple as that.
Works out of the box without any thirdparty or API registrations.
* Joomla 1.5, 1.6 and 1.7 native
* Tested on K2 2.5+
* Automatically tweet out new articles.
* Support for TinyURL.
* Support for Twitter Hashtags
* Specify which article categories to tweet
* Works in both frontend and backend
* Languages included:
- English
- Swedish
The Tweets are triggered everytime an article gets visited (this is due to K2 not supporting backend events). For example, lets say you visit a K2 article on your website, what happens under the hood is the following:
TwitterTweet makes a few checks before tweeting:
* Is this article already tweeted?
* Article published?
* Should article category be tweeted?
* Is article public or for registred users (no tweet)?
* Have I already tweeted within the delay time?
* Plus a few more checks....
TwitterTweet creates a shortened version of your URL (tinyURL) to save space in your tweet.
TwitterTweet translates the first three tags to hashtags
The Tweet will be created by putting together the Article Title, tinyURL and hashtags. If the tweet is longer than 140 characters, the article title will be shortened.
Since the plugin is triggered by visits it will basically be a fully automated solution to help promoting your website. All you have to do is sit back and make the plugin do the work for you.

Since the beginning of the Convention, various ad hoc working groups have considered how to enhance climate technology development and transfer
|Technology under the Ad Hoc Working Group on the Durban Platform on Enhanced Action (ADP)
In Durban, COP 17 established the Ad Hoc Working Group on the Durban Platform for Enhanced Action (ADP). The ADP has the mandate of developing a protocol, another legal instrument or an agreed outcome with legal force under the Convention applicable to all Parties, to be completed by no later than 2015, to come into effect and be implemented from 2020. The ADP also has a workplan on enhancing mitigation ambition to identify and explore options for a range of actions that can close the ambition gap. This is undertaken with the view to ensuring the highest possible mitigation efforts by all Parties.
At its first session, in 2012, the ADP initiated work under two workstreams: Workstream 1, on matters related to paragraphs 2 to 6 of decision 1/CP.17 (referred to as the 2015 agreement); and Workstream 2, on matters related to paragraphs 7 and 8 of the same decision (referred to as pre-2020 ambition).
Workstream 1: The 2015 agreement
Technology development and transfer is one of the key elements that the ADP is considering in the development of the 2015 agreement, along with mitigation, adaptation, finance, transparency of action and support, and capacity-building. COP 18 decided that the ADP will consider elements for a draft negotiating text no later than at its session to be held in conjunction with COP 20, with a view to making available a negotiating text before May 2015. COP 19 requested the ADP to accelerate its development of the 2015 agreement and further elaborate, beginning at its first session in 2014, elements for a draft negotiating text, taking into consideration its work on, inter alia, the key elements noted above. COP 20 acknowledged the progress made in elaborating the elements for a draft negotiating text (contained in the annex to the decision Lima call for climate action) and decided that the ADP will intensify its work to make available a negotiating text before May 2015.
Workstream 2: Pre-2020 ambition
Technology development and transfer is also central to Workstream 2, as it can play a crucial role in enhancing mitigation ambition. COP 19 decided to accelerate activities under the workplan on enhancing mitigation ambition by, inter alia, intensifying the technical examination of opportunities for actions with high mitigation potential. The COP noted that this examination would have a focus on the implementation of policies, practices and technologies that are substantial, scalable and replicable. Also at COP 19, the ADP requested the secretariat to organize technical expert meetings (TEMs) at each of the ADP sessions in 2014 to share policies, practices and technologies and address the necessary finance, technology and capacity-building. TEMs aim at demonstrating how mitigation opportunities can be seized, how barriers to implementation on the ground can be effectively addressed and how the high mitigation potential can be turned into reality, scaled up and replicated.
|Technology under the Ad Hoc Working Group on Long-term Cooperative Action under the Convention (AWG-LCA)
In Bali, COP 13 launched a comprehensive process to enable the full, effective and sustained implementation of the Convention through long-term cooperative action, up to and beyond 2012. This process addressed, inter alia, how to enhance action on technology development and transfer to support action on mitigation and adaptation. The complete overview of the AWG-LCA process can be found here.
Establishment of the Technology Mechanism
As an outcome of the AWG-LCA process, COP 16 established the Technology Mechanism, consisting of the Technology Executive Committee and the Climate Technology Centre and Network. Arrangements to make the Technology Mechanism fully operational were developed at subsequent COP sessions. COP 18 agreed to further elaborate at COP 20 the linkages between the Technology Mechanism and the Financial Mechanism of the Convention, taking into consideration the recommendations of the TEC and the Green Climate Fund Board.

MIT Changes Its Name to Micro Identification Technologies
SAN CLEMENTE, Calif., Feb. 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Micro Imaging Technology, Inc. (OTC: Bulletin Board: MMTC) today announced that it has changed is company name to Micro Identification Technologies to better reflect the extensive capabilities of its ID technology software. The company currently produces the MIT 1000 Rapid Microbial Identification (ID) System that can identify bacteria in less than five minutes with a laser that uses the principles of light scattering and with proprietary PC-based software algorithms to test bacteria samples at less than $.10 per test.
"Our company's mission is to become an advanced identifier for a variety of applications spanning several industries and we felt our name should reflect this objective," stated Michael Brennan, MIT's Chairman and CEO.
MIT's primary focus is in food safety where over the past few years a vast amount of food contamination events have been recorded. The Center for Disease Control reports that over 325,000 food contamination events causing 5,000 deaths annually.
MIT's technology can also be used for applications in clinical diagnostics, pharmaceutical and semiconductor processing as well as drinking water testing. Each of these applications will be pursued over the next few years. The technology is also adaptable to perform identification in air.
