NCAA: Baloria shines anew as Perpetual Help downs Arellano
More News from Celest R. Flores
More News from INQUIRER.net
MANILA, Philippines — Perpetual Help jumped the gun early and held on to a 73-66 victory over struggling Arellano, 73-66, Thursday in the NCAA season 89 men's basketball tournament at the Arena in San Juan.
The Altas clamped on the Chiefs in the third quarter, 21-9, and continued their balanced attack for their fourth win and a piece of the second place, tied with San Beda.
Three players finished in double-digits for Perpetual Help, which outrebounded Arellano, 46-31, and registered 19 assists.
"That has been my dream for a team. That's what you can truly call a team," said veteran head coach Aric Del Rosario in Filipino.
Del Rosario ordered his players to push the tempo in the third quarter seeing that the Chiefs were starting to tire out.
"They earned that lead. Arellano is a fighter team. I just told the boys let's not waste what we worked for," Del Rosario added. "I told them to just run."
The Altas led by as many as 15 points.
Newcomer Juneric Baloria led the Altas with 21 points, earning him the respect of his teammates, while Harold Arboleda pulled down 20 boards.
"He doesn't play like a rookie. He can carry this team," said senior Chrisper Elopre, who added 12 points, of Baloria.
John Pinto led the Chiefs, meanwhile, with 17 points while Levi Hernandez added 11 but only drew six from key guys Prince Caperal and Fil-Canadian James Forrester.

Has Nadal surpassed Borg yet?

Nadal's AO title counts for next to nothing in a comparison with Borg, since Borg hardly ever played there. His USO title and managing to win this in the same season he won on grass and clay as well, certainly does count in his favour. His Masters shields are close to irrelevant in a comparison of all-time greats, they are not the highest level of competition in tennis.
In Borg's favour he has two YECs on carpet (where Nadal has been very poor and has only reached one final), more time at No 1, more total tournaments, an even higher winning percentage at the slams (won 11/27 which he contested), all-time record Davis Cup winning streak (33 matches).
But most importantly, he dominated on two incredibly polarised surfaces (clay and old grass) simultaneously. This combined with winning on carpet and coming very close to winning the US on hard means I consider him marginally more versatile than Nadal, despite the latter winning slams on grass, clay and hard.
As I said it is very, very close between them and I certainly wouldn't find it ridiculous that someone ranks Nadal ahead. But I personally rank Borg above - just - at this stage.

The new war in Iraq and Syria is being justified by the old blank check authorization from 2001. Now is the time to end it. Two administrations have invoked this law to justify war, deadly drone attacks, detentions at Guantanamo Bay, and now U.S. airstrikes in Iraq and Syria. We have worked with our constituents to convince more than 200 members of Congress to vote for this law's repeal at one time or another. Now, we are leading efforts to stop military action in Iraq and Syria and pursue a strategy that will bring long-term peace.

For the first time in 30 years, the U.S. and Iran are engaged in robust, sustained, high‐level diplomacy,
which is already reducing the likelihood that Iran will develop nuclear weapons. Congress should
support, not undermine, this progress. We've helped persuade 191 members of Congress to speak out in favor of negotiations and, in the last 14 months, our network has published 205 letters to the editor in 46 states in favor of diplomacy. Just days before the negotiations' deadline, more than 300 people will be in Washington to lobby for diplomacy as part of our Quaker Public Policy Institute.
FCNL is helping to create space for congressional action on climate change. We've met with more than
30 Democratic and Republican lawmakers to urge them to act as leaders, parents and people of faith.
Many lawmakers have expressed private support, and this fall, a Republican representative publicly
agreed to draft a resolution calling for Congress to acknowledge and act on climate change. We are
working with faith and other partners to build more bipartisan support and pass legislation in the next
The government program to transfer military weapons, vehicles and equipment from the wars in Iraq
and Afghanistan to U.S. police departments is both a symptom and a cause of the militarized approach
to policing. In 2013, FCNL began working with members of Congress to rein in this program. We lobbied Congress, organized hearings and published opinion pieces in The New York Times and other outlets. This fall, we worked with members in both chambers to introduce bipartisan legislation that would put needed checks on this program.
Our lobbying has helped convince Congress that the Pentagon should not be exempt from budget cuts.
Current law keeps the Pentagon on a path to reduce its planned expenditures by $850 billion by 2022.
Yet more work remains: Pentagon spending is still near the same levels as at the height of the Cold War,
and President Obama is proposing budget increases in 2016.
Effective peacebuilding begins years before a potential conflict. In advance of the 2013 Kenyan elections,
FCNL worked closely with Quakers in Kenya to encourage U.S. government support for Kenyan efforts to
prevent and mitigate violence. Now, we are doing similar work in Burundi, where elections in 2015 could be a flashpoint for new violence. Thanks in part to our efforts, the administration's interagency body, the Atrocities Prevention Board, has spent the last year focusing on how the U.S. can support violence prevention in Burundi.

At a standing‐room‐only briefing in June co‐organized by FCNL, faith leaders urged members of Congress
and their staff to take charge of the rules that govern campaign spending. Working with other faith
communities through op‐eds, lobbying and other engagement, FCNL is building support for a
constitutional amendment that would restore congressional power to regulate campaign spending.
The Smarter Sentencing Act would halve the length of mandatory sentences, give judges more
discretion on sentences for many drug offenses and allow thousands of federal prisoners to seek fairer
sentences. That bipartisan legislation cleared a significant hurdle in 2014 when it passed the Senate
Judiciary Committee with FCNL's active support. We continue to advocate for its passage, even as we
work to remove language that would require new mandatory minimum sentences for some non‐drug
So far in 2014, FCNL constituents have written more than 200 letters to the editor published in local newspaper
outlets. The power of these letters to influence members of Congress is strengthened by a continued
string of op‐eds authored by FCNL staff in publications such as The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Roll Call, U.S. News & World Report, USA Today, CNN and Fox News.

|Minimum Stay
|2 - 7 nights
'Barefoot Retreat' features a private courtyard with pool and decks on all three levels. It is just a short 2 minute walk to the beach with a private access.
The courtyard features a large pool (heating optional), deck with lounge seating, gas grill, dining table, and outdoor shower.
In the dining area everyone can eat together as the dining table seats 10 and there are 4 additional barstools at the kitchen counter. An open kitchen concept, with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, let everyone enjoy the fun. The attached living room has a large flat screen TV, DVD, and two sets of french doors leading directly to the patio area by the pool.
The first floor bedroom features a queen bed with an attached bath. It has a TV and DVD. One step from the outside into the house, queen bedroom, and living areas making it ideal for easy access. The first floor also has a queen sleeper in the family room.
The second floor features two bedrooms. The master has a king bed, private bath, and walk in closet. There is a sitting area with a queen sleeper, TV and DVD. The private balcony with lounge chairs are accessed by two french doors.
The third floor offers two twin bunk beds, private balcony, TV, and DVD. Everyone will enjoy the arcade game. It is a two person with a variety of games. The balcony has additional sitting, tables, and views of the gulf.
We had a fantastic girls trip at Barefoot Retreat. The home provided excellent accommodations. The bedroooms were comfortable and spacious. The dining areas inside and out were large and enabled us to all eat together and play games. The heated pool in the backyard was great in the afternoons. The coffee shop and wine bar at the end of the street were so convenient. We also loved walking to several nearby restaurants. Great trip!
I stayed here over labor day weekend with some girlfriends. The house was absolutely perfect for our group of 6 & had room to spare. This place had everything we needed from a short walk to the beach to a pool in the backyard. The house would be great for families as well with it's 3 bedrooms & a loft with bunk beds. There's a great huge dining room table to comfortable seat large groups for both meals & games. Would highly recommend - house was extremely clean & in a great location!
My family (12 people) recently stayed at the Barefoot Retreat. The house was lovely and the kids really enjoyed having a pool in the back yard. Would recommend this property to friends and family.
I rented Barefoot Retreat for 10 days over 2 weekends, the first part of the time we had a family reunion of 6 adults, 1 child, 4 young adults, the later part of the stay my 2 best girlfriends came in to mark a milestone birthday with me. This house was the perfect size, no one felt like they were on top of one and other. The AC worked incredibly well and kept all of us cool! Having grown up in the panhandle of FL it was so nice to come back to that area, and just take a short walk to the beautiful sugar sands and the crystal blue calming waters. Only to return to the outside shower and dips in the pool. My 6 yr. old nephew from the Midwest thought it was 'awesome' to have a pool in your backyard! I brought luminary bags and votive candles, so that we would have candlelight outside. We spent many evenings on the pool deck. During the family reunion we cooked all of our dinners in, with the exception of the last night when we enjoyed an incredible meal at Shorty's in Grayton Beach. When the girls arrived we walked to Pompano Joe's one night and also to Whale's Tale for lunch and breakfast, both very enjoyable. The owners were easy to work with and answered all correspondence and questions quickly! Thanks for a wonderful vacation!
We had nine people staying in this house. Grandparents (2), Other Adults (4), Four year olds (2) and a one year old. This house was the perfect size. WIth as large as the house is all three floors stayed at a good temperature. We were all able to sit and eat at the dining room table (when we could get the kids out of the pool.) Most of the time we ate lunch at the large table on the patio. The corner lot that this house sits on, gives you a little bigger outside space and more parking, which came in handy. The private beach (very nice) was within walking distance as were two restaurants, a wine store, a coffee shop. The beach cart and the beach chairs provided were a great bonus.
Owners were very accomodating, answered any questions, very quick to return deposit.
Overall, this house was the cornerstone of a really great vacation.
Just a perfect house to take a well needed vacation. Everything was perfect!. We ate in for most of our meals because the kids didn't want to get out of the pool. I can highly recommend Camilles for dinner, as well as Vintij (if you are wine drinkers). The pizza at Chiao Bella was awesome too.
We can't wait to get back there next year. Wouldn't think about renting any other house in Destin.

De Lima: NBI open to joint probe on pork barrel scam, Napoles
More News from Jamie Marie Elona
More News from INQUIRER.net
MANILA, Philippines–Justice Secretary Leila de Lima on Sunday said the National Bureau of Investigation is open to a joint probe with the Office of the Ombudsman and the Commission on Audit on the supposed anomalous use of the Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF), or pork barrel.
De Lima made the statement following the release of the COA report that said P6.156 billion funds were transferred by seven government agencies to 82 allegedly dubious non-government organizations from 2007 to 2009.
COA said among those that received funds include 10 NGOs linked to controversial businesswoman Janet Lim-Napoles.
"Documents in COA's possession, such as lawmakers' letters designating implementing agencies and NGOs, requests for release of funds, SAROs, NCAs, MOAs, etc., will corroborate and strengthen the whistleblowers' statements and own documentary evidence," De Lima said.
She said the COA report would be used as a "major reference" for the needed evidentiary support to buttress and complete NBI's ongoing probe.
"With the release of such COA Report, NBI's probe will now be full blown," the secretary said, adding that NBI is open for at least a parallel and coordinated probe with COA and Ombudsman.
De Lima, however, said that for now, they would put the focus of their investigation on transactions and NGOs that could have involved Napoles, as well as the lawmakers, executive officials/personnel and other individuals implicated by the whistleblowers.
An arrest warrant has been issued against Napoles and her brother Reynald Lim for illegal detention of Benhur Luy.

"I see the power of music to connect cultures. I see it when I stand on a stage at a bluegrass festival … and I bust out into a song in Chinese, and everybody's eyes just pop wide open." - Abigail Washburn
Nettwerk Records' catalogue artist and TED Fellow, Abigail Washburn, headed to Long Beach, CA for the annual TED2012 Conference. Washburn joined a 2012 class of honorees that included a molecular biologist, a space archaeologist, a blue whale scientist, a DIY Neurologist and 20 other innovators recognized by the globally recognized and highly esteemed nonprofit devoted to "Ideas Worth Spreading." To watch, please visit HERE.
Washburn wanted to be a lawyer improving US-China relations -- until she picked up a banjo. She tells a moving story of the remarkable connections she's formed touring across the United States and China while playing that banjo and singing in Chinese.

In his early 20s, Hyslop is inspired by an array of artists - Damien Rice, William Fitzsimmons, Ryan Adams, Iron & Wine – but, has developed his own kind of artfully-rendered Americana.
In the coming days, Hyslop will be taking his music on the road. The stripped down performances highlight Hsylop's innate ability to effortlessly write beautiful melodies layered on top of lovely harmonies.
Toronto based singer-songwriter Liam Titcomb is set to release "Love Don't Let Me Down," the lead single from his forthcoming Nettwerk debut album, out June 19th. The single comes bundled in a 4-track EP, which is comprised of an acoustic version of the title track, as well as additional songs "Map Of Me" and "Chasing You."
Listen to "Love Don't Let Me Down" below:

Titcomb is preparing for a handful of Canadian dates, starting May 30th. For a complete list, see below.
Vancouver-based alt/folk trio The Be Good Tanyas will release a career retrospective entitled A Collection (2000 – 2012) on July 17, 2012.

Nettwerk recording artist, Family Of The Year, announce details of their much-anticipated studio album, Loma Vista. Set for release July 10, the full-length follows the critical success of last year's St. Croix EP; heralded by NPR as "ebullient, full of stylistic left turns" and "intense and atmospheric" by Rolling Stone.
Family Of The Year—Joe (vocals, guitar), Sebastian (drums, vocals), James Buckey (guitar, vocals), and Christina Schroeter (keyboards, vocals) - completed 14 songs with producer Wally Gagel, one-half of production/songwriting team, WAX LTD and who's credits include Rolling Stones, Muse, New Order, PJ Harvey, Sebadoh, Eels, Rihanna and more. A few tracks were set aside for St Croix, the remaining make up Loma Vista. This is the first time that the band has worked with a producer and gone outside their own camp to release their music.
To celebrate the forthcoming release, FOTY reveals "Diversity" and partnered with Nylon Magazine to share a 4-minute tour clip pieced together from their recent North American jaunt with Good Old War and Belle Brigade. A band with remarkable performance presence, the video aptly captures life on the road with a band that started out "cohabitating" in a run-down house and relying on each other for inspiration and support.

Old Crow Medicine Show (OCMS) are excited to announce the release of their newest album, Carry Me Back, on July 17 through ATO Records. Carry Me Back is the band's fourth studio album and first since 2008's Tennessee Pusher (Nettwerk), and features 12 brand new tracks that sonically span the band's career while still pushing them forward in new directions as musicians and songwriters. The album was recorded at the legendary Sound Emporium studios in Nashville (O Brother, Where Art Thou?; REM's Document; Robert Plant and Alison Krauss's Raising Sand).
Carry Me Back was produced by Ted Hutt (Gaslight Anthem, Dropkick Murphys, Flogging Molly). Hutt pushed the band in a whole new way that they hadn't been pushed before. "Ted Hutt asked us to really dig deep as artists, as songwriters, to get to the heart of the matter of these songs and, especially, not to settle for anything less than their greatness," recalls Ketch Secor of the band. Secor is also very proud of the result of the band's songwriting efforts on the album, saying "For me, Carry Me Back is all about the songs, how they line up, intertwine, switch partners, and promenade home. Each of these songs was an accident waiting to happen."
Keep reading for more information, including tour dates.
Nettwerk Records has signed Dispatch to a label deal for Europe, and will release their upcoming album Circles Around The Sun in mid-August. This is the band's first studio album in 12 years, and first ever label-supported release in the Europen territory.
Earlier this year, Dispatch made their way over to Europe for the fist time in their careers. Despite having never released an album or toured there previously, Dispatch sold out the majority of their tour dates, and were forced to move their London show to a bigger venue due to popular demand. The sold-out show in Cologne, Germany was streamed live by German music television show Rockpalast and can still be viewed HERE.
Circles Around The Sun is an eclectic all-American rock and roll record that delivers the gutsy storytelling, compelling songwriting and radiant harmonies that has earned the band fans throughout countless countries.
On the heels of making his debut appearance at the Coachella Arts And Valley Music Festival and wrapping his first tour through Asia and second trip to Australia, Grammy-nominated DJ/Producer Morgan Page announces another slew of tour dates, including stops at many of this year's summer music festivals – Las Vegas' Electric Daisy Carnival (142,000-capacity), Chicago's Spring Awakening Festival (61,000-capacity), NY's Electric Zoo (25,000-capacity), Toronto's Edgefest, Victoria's Rifflandia Festival, Calgary's Stampede Festival and more.
This has been a stellar year for Page, and it's only the beginning. With a #1 Billboard Club Airplay title track, "In The Air" and follow-up single, "Body Work" moving up the charts, Page's current full-length is breaking personal records. A little more than a month since its release, In The Air has surpassed year-to-date sales of his two previous releases - 2008's Elevate and 2010's Believe.
Current single, "Body Work" (featuring Tegan And Sara) sits in the Top 20 at Pop Radio for the 4th consecutive week, the accompanying video is in heavy rotation at MuchMore and was the "Recommended Video Of The Week" at MuchMusic.
To Listen To In The Air, see below.
"Recording this album has been a very different experience for me. It's an opportunity to be more loose and have a bit more fun. Recording with Julia is cool but we both have our hands on the wheel. This is an opportunity to grab the wheel and do some burn-outs," says Stone.
May 17, 2012 (Los Angeles, CA) – Following the recent release of lead single, "Bird On The Buffalo," Angus Stone announces full details of his upcoming solo album Broken Brights - out July 17 via Nettwerk Records.
Broken Brights marks a departure for Stone, and not just from recording with his long-term musical co-conspirator and sister, Julia. The album, produced by Angus, is also proof that he can deftly shift between genres without compromising his signature sound.
While title track "Broken Brights" is a return-to-form for Stone — it's a nostalgic, dreamy tribute to our youth — "Bird On the Buffalo" is a livelier composition, incorporating distorted guitar riffs, which also make an appearance in the notably rockier "It Was Blue." That string-laden track in particular is proof that his compositional skills transcend the preconceptions you might have about his musical style.

Is there going to be a list of blacklisted weapons? Or is any weapon good?I'm concerned about Lucksman snipers and Gunslinger Engies...

Orange maps... Reminds me of Day of Defeat Source which I'm also decent at, and love.
Pl_Branblitz and Pl_Badwater are a MUST
I would rather have really easy to learn maps because we have people who have never played TF2 before joining, so knowing maps will be a really obvious advantage, and with random team selection, skill could be stacked.I say the Original CP_orange map. No frills, very open, and possibly the easiest map to learn.Show Image
This isn't a true competitive tournament, nor was it ever going to be. This is having fun with other people. There are people who have never played before, so we want easy to learn maps. While I'm fine with Badlands, I think a map or that has no hidden secrets would be preferable, and I think Orange_X3 perfectly suits that. It's a flat map with obvious cover and a big tower in the middle. It's an extremely easy map to learn. I think we should have a majority's approval on the map, but I think for our purposes that Orange_x3 suits us fine.

Penny Lane there is a barber showing photographs
Of every head he's had the pleasure to have known
from The Beatles – Penny Lane Lyrics on Genius
There is actually a barber in Penny Lane, Liverpool and they have put photographs in their window in reference to the song.
He keeps a set of photos of everyone famous he's met, like an autograph book. Not too out there, but still strange behavior.

text: The Big Mouth (1967) DVDrip Code: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0061401/ Description: In The Big Mouth, Jerry Lewis plays the role of Gerald Clamson, a bank examiner on vacation who, while fishing, catches a frogman - the frogman, who coincidentally is the spitting image of Jerry Lewis, has stolen diamonds from his criminal gang, and hidden them at a nearby resort hotel. Clamson takes the map to the diamonds given him by the frogman, and makes his escape while the gangsters attack. At the hotel, Jerry Lewis accidentally injures the hotel manager, played by Del Moore, and so Jerry Lewis disguises himself as the title character from The Nutty Professor in order to investigate the mystery at the hotel. At this point, there are three different subplots running together - the criminal gang searching for Jerry Lewis, while he's courting the love interest in the film portrayed by Susan Bey, while the hotel staff are looking for him in order to throw him out.

Objects that are really large like, lets say a game map will outright not show up in XNA if their origin point is not on the screen.
I can't find a bloody thing on this. I have looked into culling and attempted to add it in a few forms to the project to counteract this but to no avail.
I want to draw objects who have origins off screen so that if they are partially on the screen they are still displayed. How would I achieve this?
From the documentation I read cull should do this, shouldn't it? My poor brain matter (._. )
On a side note if anyone has any experience creating primitives within the Ox Engine for XNA, I'd be thrilled to hear from you.
Edit: Hellfire... I'm pretty sure this problem is just Ox's doing. Goddamn ox. ALL OF MY HATE.

It had been a while (my wife tells me three years) but the Parrott Family finally took a long vacation.
Our destination was a return trip to a family favorite, the Outer Banks in North Carolina. Although Hurricane Arthur cut our trip two days shorter than planned, we still had a great time.
The highlight of the trip for me was a fishing excursion on my birthday as I got to do something I had never done before. On our last trip to the Outer Banks, we used a charter service out of a harbor called Teach's Lair located on the southern tip of the banks in a town called Hatteras. We had a good time the last time we were there, so we returned to the same outfit although this time we used a different boat and captain. We had booked a half day inland shore family trip with Captain Doug Martin on his boat called the Hallelujah.
The trip started getting the kids up before the crack of dawn. We were on the water by 6 a.m. and headed to a spot out where they had caught a lot of speckled trout the day before. Speckled trout are great eating fish and I was looking forward to loading up the cooler with them.
However, the weather was very unusual for the area as we were experiencing extremely calm winds that day. The water was almost like glass. The lack of chop on the water made fishing a tad slow. We were casting chartreuse twister tails on 3/8 ounce jig heads and with a lot of moving around changing spots, we slowly picked up a limit of gray trout with a handful of speckled trout and blue fish thrown in.
Once we had our limit of trout, our captain suggested with the remaining time we had left, that we head out past the inlet and chase after some red drum and boy am I glad we did. As we ran several miles towards our destination I happened to spot a pod of a dozen dolphins so he shut the motor down and got the boat up close to the group enabling us to snap some awesome photos. The kids were tickled to death that we were able to get within five yards of the pod making things up close and personal.
After a few moments we continued on to our destination which was a series of protected flats with weed beds spread out around the area. Because of the calmness of the water and its gin clear color, with a good set of polarized sunglasses we were able to see dozens and dozens of stingrays feeding on the flats. I was amazed with how large some of those guys were and was secretly hoping that I didn't fall overboard.
As we idled slowly around the flat, the captain climbed up on the tallest perch of the boat and began searching for the drum. Several other charter boats were in the area searching for the same thing. After several minutes he located a lot of disturbance on the water and after some hushed conversations he informed us that he found what we were looking for. Because of the calm and clear water, the drum were very spooky and it made it impossible to get close enough to reach the school within a cast's reach.
Finally, by accident, our fate changed. Another charter boat actually cut the school off and their disturbance turned the fish back and they were heading right for us. He told me to get ready as we would only have one chance and boy was he right. When the school approached I could see that they were traveling at what seemed like mach one speed as a school of drum nearly a quarter acre in size cruised right by the boat. My cast didn't anticipate enough lead in front of the group and I came up empty.
However, the captain's cast was dead on and he was able to nab one of these cruising freight trains they call channel bass, or otherwise known as red drum. He quickly passed off the rod to one of the kids as he grabbed another rod and hooked into another. By then the school was way passed us but the two we had on gave one heck of a battle. The strength of these brutes made it hard to gain any ground on them. The gain in line was slow and tiresome but it was a blast.
When we finally landed the fish the school was long gone, so we went on the stalk again trying to locate another school. The captains of the charter boats finally got to where they were indirectly working together driving schools towards each other because you couldn't sneak up on them as they were too spooky and cruising too fast.
When the next school turned towards us, I was more prepared for what to do this time and made a perfect cast ahead of the school. As soon as the jig hit the water, I felt the Mack truck I'd hooked nearly take the rod out of my hands. I was amazed at the strength of these guys and learned quickly that you had to be patient to gain ground on them.
While I was battling this brute, two more were hooked into. The boys and I had fun trying to reel the three of them in without getting our lines tangled. Fortunately, after a little dancing around and shuffling positions, all three were landed with success. After some quick snapshots, they quickly found their way into the cooler.
Fishing regulations only allow keeping one red drum per person, but we spent the rest of the morning catching and releasing these guys until our arms hurt. We had finally run out of time and left the schools of drum to the rest of the crews that were chasing them. Although I hated having to leave the biting fish, my shoulder was thankful we were done.
When we arrived back of the dock, we hired the local fish cleaning service to handle our catch and we were surprised to hear that we had over fifty pounds of fish to get cleaned. I can tell you after a couple of meals of fish, drum and sea trout are very tasty table fare.
Although I have done a lot of sight fishing for spawning bass I have never sight fished for cruising fish like that before so that was a real treat. Let alone the strength and size of these guys made it a challenge to land them like I have never experienced in fishing before. If you ever find your way towards the coast, I strongly urge to save your pennies and book a charter. It is well worth the money.
Although charters can be pricey, you are saving yourself a lot of guess work and frustration in trying to be successful on your own. On top of paying for the fuel and use of their equipment, you are also paying for their knowledge and experience and that is invaluable.
Until next time, Good Hunting and Good Fishing!

PORTLAND -- At the height of the Occupy movement in Portland two years ago, banks were among the focal points of the protests.
Ray Davis, CEO of Umpqua Bank, decided a conversation with some of the protesters couldn't hurt. As he outlines in his new book on leadership, the conversation actually helped both sides.
Davis told KGW Monday he believes where there is a problem, it s best to confront it head on, rather than burying it. He said talking things through leads to positive results.
His book, Leading Through Uncertainty, was born during the Great Recession, when banks and most other business were facing very difficult times.
As Occupy Wall Street moved through Main streets across the country, Portland was right in the thick of it.
Top Story of 2011: Occupy Portland
Though his bank was among the targets, Davis said he thought many in the movement were decent people with good motives. So he set up a meeting with two occupiers against the advice from some others at the bank just a day before a planned protest of Portland banks.
There were some people that were protesting that had some legitimate protests, Davis said. We didn't have to agree with them but they were legitimate protests. I think there were people out there that took advantage of those good people out there, and that was unfortunate.
Davis said people both sides of that conversation learned something about each other.
And on November 17, 2011 Occupy Portland protesters did demonstrate. But they walked right past Umpqua. Davis hesitated to say whether going out on a limb and meeting with the occupiers made the difference.
Afterward, Umpqua donated $25,000 to help clean up the Portland parks where the occupiers had stayed.
Related: Occupy Portland park repairs surpass $86K
His book is on shelves now. The proceeds benefit the Family Development Center in Roseburg, a non-profit agency helping children at risk.

Saudi Cleric Calls for Murdering Women and Children in Iraq
Posted By Daniel Greenfield On April 29, 2013 @ 10:28 am In The Point | 17 Comments
And he's not exactly a fan of America [2] either, declaring on Twitter, "O Allah, humiliate America and make them prey to your followers."
Dr. Saad al-Durihim is a faculty member of the Imam Muhammad ibn Saud Islamic University, named after the founder of Saudi Arabia under the Saudi clan in alliance with the madman, Mohammed bin Abdul-Wahhab, who gave us Wahhabism. So it's safe to say that al-Durhim's call for mass murder [3]meets with the approval or at least the tolerance of the House of Saud.
The Saudi Wahhabi cleric and the faculty member at the Islamic University of Imam Muhammad bin Saud, Dr. Saad al-Durihim, called Iraqi Mujahideen (al Qaeda terrorist groups) to kill Shiite women and children in order to cause more terror and fear among Iraqi people.
Dr. Saad al-Durihim, in his Twitter called Mujahideen to increase cruelty and murder or even captive women and children to scare more people.
The context for Saad's proposals was the [4] spillover of the Sunni-Shiite civil war in Syria into Lebanon and Iraq. Saad al-Durihim's Twitter feed is full of calls for treating Iraq's Shiite Prime Minister just like Assad. That part might be tricky considering that while Syria has a Sunni majority and Shiite minority, Iraq has a Shiite majority and Sunni minority.
Saad al-Durihim has gone from declaring Shiites a horrifying and murderous enemy to suggesting that the only way to reason with them was to kill large numbers of Shiite civilians, including women and children.
The proposal isn't that extraordinary, but the consequences will be. Interventions fancifully imagine that overthrowing Assad will wrap up the Arab Spring. It will not. The next phase of the Sunni Islamist Jihad will be Iraq and Saad al-Durhim is giving us a taste of what Salafist brigades, like those in Syria, armed and guided by Turkish and Qatari special forces and money will bring there.
The one thing that defines Islam is perpetual conflict and war. If the war in Syria temporarily abates, the terrorists will refocus their aim on Iraq.

"My wife and I had the wonderful experience of spending three weeks in this comfortable and beautifully appointed home. The views and sunsets from the patio are just as beautiful as shown. We like the location because it is away from the busy traffic of Tucson and the Oro Valley. The location is quite and has excellent opportunities (golf and tennis). Barbeques on the patio as the sunsets are terrific. The owners are very nice people and are very easy to work with. We highly recommend this property and hope to return."Guest: John & Shirley Date of Stay: January 2015 Review Submitted: February 13, 2015View listing

Nis, Serbia (Sports Network) - Serbia needed only one victory on Sunday against Sweden, and world No. 9 Janko Tipsarevic did not waste any time in the first reverse singles rubber as he helped the 2010 champions beat Sweden 4-1 in a best-of-five opening-round Davis Cup affair.
The visiting Swedes stayed alive, at 2-1, in Nis on Saturday with a doubles win, but Tipsarevic ended the Swedish hopes with a 6-2, 7-6 (7-5), 7-5 victory over Michael Ryderstedt on Day 3 at Hala Cair. The match was over in 2 hours, 20 minutes, as Tipsarevic launched 25 aces and held his serve throughout.
The Serbs, who played this week without world No. 1 superstar Novak Djokovic, moved on to play the Czech Republic in the quarterfinals in April.
Djokovic, along with Serbian captain Bogdan Obradovic, decided that the reigning Australian Open, U.S. Open and Wimbledon champion should rest this week following the No. 1's most recent championship run in Melbourne.
On Friday in Nis, Tipsarevic drilled Filip Prpic in straight sets and Viktor Troicki made it 2-0 Serbia with a four-set victory over Ryderstedt.
Saturday's doubles saw a Swedish duo of Johan Brunstrom and Robert Lindstedt outlast a Serbian tandem of Tipsarevic and Nenad Zimonjic in five sets, including an 18-game fifth.
Serbia captured the Davis Cup title two years ago, while Sweden, captained by Thomas Enqvist this week, owns seven championships, but none since 1998.
The Serbs defeated the Swedes, 4-1, in a quarterfinal tie last year.

Madonna the Latest Pop Star to Shine Celebrity on Africa
Herbert, Ross
Article excerpt
First Bono, then Angelina Jolie, now Madonna. Africa is officially a Hollywood fad.
While visiting projects she funds for AIDS orphans in the southern African nation of Malawi this week, Madonna reportedly adopted a 13-month-old Malawian boy.
With so many Hollywood actors, British rock stars, and American talk show hosts beating a path to the continent - building schools, visiting refugee children, raising awareness on AIDS and the fighting in Darfur - it's a wonder the entertainment industry can still function. Their splashy arrival in the serious world of humanitarian aid has led some to question how much long-term good they are actually doing. But most aid agencies welcome it, saying that these A-listers draw more press attention (witness this story) to the issues than noncelebrity aid workers ever could.
"We're talking about building constituencies of interest," says Jeannie Zielinkski, country director for the international aid group CARE, responsible for aid programs in South Africa, Lesotho and Swaziland. "If I made a funding appeal myself, I would only be singing to the choir, those who already care about Africa. How effective is that? But you get a celebrity singing a totally different song, reaching a much wider crowd, to me that is really useful."
What stars have done for Africa
In the troubled Sudanese region of Darfur - where hundreds of thousands of Sudanese have been killed, and millions of refugees live in makeshift camps - actors George Clooney, Don Cheadle, and Mia Farrow have visited, raised money, and spoken before Congress on the need to stop what many see as a genocide of Sudanese minorities.
In the Democratic Republic of Congo, Jessica Lange and Angelina Jolie have visited burgeoning camps of people displaced by a decade of civil war, where perhaps 4 million were killed.
British pop singer Bono, of the rock group U2, has set up a Washington-based pressure group called DATA, which lobbies in the halls of Congress and in European capitals for debt relief among Africa's poorest nations. He's also launched high-end "ethical clothing" labels that promise fair working conditions in African textile factories.
And here in South Africa, in the township of Soweto near Johannesburg, American talk show host Oprah Winfrey has built her own school, hired her own teachers, and interviewed the hundreds of girls who will attend.
"Jessica Lange jumped feet first in the DRC (the Democratic Republic of Congo), and she was really moved by what she saw on the ground, particularly with women, the sexual violence and the rape," says Sarah Crowe, spokeswoman for UNICEF's operations in South Africa. …

Overlooked: Inspectah Deck, 7L & Esoteric's "CZARFACE" (Album Review)Posted by Dharmic X on 02/25/13 | Filed under Opinion, Album Reviews, Overlooked, Inspectah Deck
7L and Esoteric are Boston hip-hop royalty. They have been on the scene since 1993, and have been releasing material since 1996. Along with their own catalog of over six albums, the duo are known for their affiliation with the Demigodz and Army of the Pharoahs collectives, two staples in the Northeast underground hip-hop scene.
Meanwhile, Inspectah Deck is a seasoned veteran best known for being part of the legendary Wu-Tang Clan. 'Nuff said.
The two entities came together last week in the form of "CZARFACE", an album that hip-hop fans didn't even know they needed in their collection until the songs came out. And while RefinedHype has thus far been silent on coverage for this album, RefinedHype Nation has been clamoring for the site's thoughts on the project.
Before listening to "CZARFACE", I had the opportunity to attend the group's album release party this Friday, at the famed Middle East venue in Cambridge. This show was a testament to the legacy of Wu-Tang, the Demigodz (fellow members Blacastan and Apathy were also in attendance and performed), and 7LES. With the main acts slated to get on stage at 11:45, a line formed around the street corner of the venue by 9:00PM, a rarity for a hip-hop show in general. Perhaps never in the history of the Middle East had the lower stage, with its maximum capacity well over 550 people, turned away over 100 people from the venue.
To put it in perspective, Murs & Fashawn performed at the upper stage of the Middle East the following day. The upper stage has a capacity of 200 people.
Meanwhile, the show was simply a party, with the beats knocking and the crowd bopping their heads and keeping their hands in the air throughout. The crowd received the CZARFACE material with zest, but was pleasantly surprised to find Deck performing Wu-Tang classics such as "Wu-Tang Clan Ain't Nuthin to Fuck With" and "C.R.E.A.M." For myself, the highlight of the show came when Deck jumped into the crowd to perform his verse from "Above the Clouds," paying homage to Boston's greatest emcee, the late Guru.
The show was an incredible experience, so it is saying something for the album itself to be even better.
"Air 'Em Out" is the album's opener, and is one of those songs that makes one get up on their feet and throw their hands up in the air in the house alone (...or maybe that's just me). While perhaps a bit more upbeat than the rest of the album, it sets the tone for the 7L's hard-knocking production style that chills the spine throughout. Meanwhile, Deck starts the song off in vintage form, brazenly declaring, "I don't hear a sound, I just hear the crowd, I'm surgically performing like the doctor in the house." For fans of smooth flows and oblique lines, this is the cure to end all illnesses.
Those who believe that Deck would overshadow his rhyme partner on this project are sorely mistaken--Esoteric sounds possessed and hungry on every rhyme he delivers throughout the project. On "Air 'Em Out," he goes in to match Deck, wittily rapping "Heavyweight, that's what the title says, leave ya limbless like a pez, you can suck my dick, beat my nuts, Psycho Les." One of the testaments of this comes on "Marvel Team-Up," where Eso trades bars with Inspectah Deck ala Styles P and Jada, the two styles meshing perfectly as the Masshole claims "I got the ego of Evel Knievel." Meanwhile, he opens off "Rock Beast" with precision and flair, proving that he is not the Rebel INS's second-in-command on this lyrical journey.
On projects like "CZARFACE", production tends to be hit-or-miss. Fans have been subjected to a lot of uninspired production that bangs but leaves a lot to be desired. On this album, however, 7L shines throughout. Take "Cement 3's" for example. This could have been standard fare, a thumping yet simple beat. However, 7L throws a little extra spice into the beat, making it richer in sound. Songs like "Czar Refaeli" evolve as they progress, changing in sound midway through verses. It is a testament to 7L and frequent co-producer Spada4 that "Let it Off," produced by DJ Premier, fits comfortably and seamlessly into the album while sounding like a vintage Premo heat rock.
Meanwhile, what separates "CZARFACE" from most albums of this generation are the mini-skits, usually put together through vocal samples (with the exception of Esoteric's son trying to say "Czarface" at the end of "Let it Off," a very funny and cute moment amidst all the boom-bap grime). A perfect example of this is the timely WWF sample on "It's Raw." While the samples come from an assortment of sources, they are all weaved together to create a very cohesive concept for the album without coming off as tacky or trite.
The features assembled on the album are the icing on the cake. For the first time ever, Action Bronson and Ghostface Killah can be heard on the same project, ironic due to the frequent comparisons made in terms of sound and style. Ghost's contribution on "Savagely Attack" is incredible, dropping bars in rare form: "Attack like a n... on bath salts, eat his face and leave his body on asphalt." Action doesn't disappoint either. Meanwhile, on the standout cut "Poisonous Thoughts" Mr. MFN eXquire comes through and attacks a beat that actually sounds tailor made for him with panache, holding his own amongst the veteran emcees. Each feature is well-placed, matched up with the correct beat from 7L.
Some might argue that "CZARFACE" is a niche album, a relic from the 90s born in the wrong era. But the album is honestly masterpiece, put together with an attention to detail that is refreshing to hear right now. Not only does the album satisfy the cravings of boom-bap enthusiasts, it succeeds where similar albums have faltered in terms of content, style, and sound. It's the nuances that make "CZARFACE" an incredible body of work, arguably one of the early favorites for album of the year contention.

Actor Vikram's role in his upcoming Tamil film "Thaandavam" is based on a real life character and he has dedicated it to his source of inspiration.
Vikram plays a RAW agent who turns blind in the film and it is inspired from visually challenged Daniel Kish, an echolocation expert and is also the president of World Access for the Blind.
Speaking at an event here, the actor said: "I dedicate my role to Daniel. Had it not been for him, we couldn't have done this film."
The actor underwent training sessions in echolocation, the ability of humans to detect objects by sensing echoes, with Daniel, who also plays a small part in the film.
Daniel, who was flown down for the event, said, "Working with Vikram was a delightful experience. I felt like I was training one of my own students."
When asked was he born blind, Daniel clarified, "I lost my one eyesight a few months after my birth and second one when I was 13 months old."
"Thaandavam" is directed by A.L. Vijay and this is his second movie with Vikram.
The director met Daniel through a common friend and spent a few days with him to understand how he works.
"I spent a few days with Daniel at his residence in the US. Unlike us, he can see through this ears and that's what makes him a champion in echolocation," said Vijay.
An action-thriller, "Thaandavam" also stars Amy Jackson, Anushka Shetty, Jagapati Babu and Lakshmi Rai.
G.V. Prakash has composed the music for the film, which will have a worldwide release Sep 28.

The San Francisco 49ers are headed to the Super Bowl for the sixth time in franchise history, and the first since 1994, as Colin Kaepernick led the squad to victory after they fell short last year. San Francisco erased a 20-point Falcons lead in the first half of the NFC Championship game and battled back for a 28-24 win.
The Niners are a perfect five-for-five in Super Bowls, having won every time they've made it to the big game. The team was a game away last season, but lost in overtime to the eventual champions, the New York Giants.
The 49ers' path to Super Bowl XLVII has been anything but predictable: the defense has always been there - they allowed only 17.1 points per game, the second-best total in the league - but Jim Harbaugh's squad had trouble figuring out how to score. Alex Smith started as the quarterback and the team started out 6-2 with him at the helm, beating the Green Bay Packers in the season opener.
Smith went down with a concussion against the St. Louis Rams, Kaepernick took over, and it was clear the second-year player from Nevada provided something Smith didn't. Sure, he didn't have the same precision as a passer - Smith completed over 70 percent of his passes on the year - but he could throw the ball deeper. And most importantly, he could run, showing off the speed that made him such a dangerous player in Chris Ault's pistol in college. Combined with Frank Gore, the Niners were fourth in the league in rushing.
San Francisco tied in Kaepernick's first real game when he came in for the concussed Smith, but won five of seven down the stretch with Kaepernick at the helm. With the second-best record in the NFC they got a first-round bye, and then handled the Green Bay Packers, winning 45-31 in a divisional match-up before beating the Falcons in the NFC Championship game.

My husband and I spent two nights in this exquisite hotel in mid-May. We were in #13, a suite with a balcony overlooking the gorge. Our stay couldn't have been better. The cave suite was huge and very quiet. Breakfast, served in a large cave, was ample and delicious. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and the hotel offers a variety of events and sightseeing opportunities. We hated to leave! Be warned that there are a number of steps to climb to reach Reception, but they are not steep.

Mayweather still not ready to face Manny
FLOYD Mayweather Jr. is at it again.
In an article that came out in Philboxing.com, Floyd again opened his big mouth and said that the much awaited fight between him and 8-division world titlist Manny Pacquiao may still push through.
But in order for the fight of the century to happen, Floyd again set a couple of conditions.
First, Manny had to beat Juan Manuel Marquez in a fifth fight.
Then the Saranggani congressman, he said, will have to settle his problem with Timothy Bradley, whatever that means. Maybe Floyd Jr. is saying that the Pacman has to consent to a rematch with the American boxer, who beat him by a controversial split decision last year.
* * *
Mayweather very recently signed a 6-fight contract with Showtime. The very first of these fights is scheduled on May 4 against Robert "The Ghost" Guerrero, a 29 year-old southpaw who holds a record of 31 wins, 18 knockouts, 1 loss and l draw.
The youthful Guerrero is said to be very eager to make it to big-time boxing.
Previously, Mayweather demanded that for the Pacquiao-Mayweather showdown to push through, Pacquiao will have to undergo a drug test. Pacquiao consented, but still nothing happened.
The promoters of the two tried to negotiate again, but the parties failed to agree on the purse. The clock is ticking. Is Floyd still scared to mar his clean win slate?
* * *
The call from athletics president Go Teng Kok was expected, although he has been practically incommunicado since the POC elections last November.
"I had to call you because you had misunderstood what I had texted. I have not called anyone from the press since November but I had to make you an exception, to set the record straight," Go Temg Kok said.
I admitted I had so much difficulty decoding his text message which was written in jejemon language.
"Pease explain what you were trying to say, in the clearest way possible," I requested him.
* * *
"First of all, I want to clarify that Philip Ella Juico did not get any help from me when he was appointed PSC chair, PGA president and a member of President Cory Aquino's cabinet during her administration."
"He is so close to the Aquinos and the Cojuangcos he doesn't need anybody's help. Besides, I have neither influence nor power to help him," Mr. Go said.
"I have nothing against Philip being my successor. After all, he is highly qualified for the position. He'll be the first person in my mind if I call it quits."
"And that's a big if."
According to Mr. Go, one of the major reasons why he's giving up his post is, he's making good his word that he will resign if Peping Cojuangco continues to be POC president.
If ever, the process—the turnover—would be made faster if Juico would help him (GTK) clear his name, which has been tarnished by Cojuangco and his cohorts in the POC who expelled him and declared him persona non grata.
In his search for a replacement, GTK said he conducted a mini-survey among 17 people, majority of them members of the media. He asked the group to text in the name of the person he/she is endorsing.
