As many of us know, the Chargers have been experiencing some injury problems throughout camp. But how serious are they and how much of an impact will they bear heading into the pre-season? The Chargers, as of now, have one key backup and three starters that are injured. The starters include major WR free agent pickups Robert Meachem (knee) and Eddie Royal (groin), who are expected to be the two very key targets for QB Philip Rivers. Meachem was projected/expected to be San Diego's number one receiver, while Royal would be a huge impact in the inside pass game. In addition, starting OT Jared Gaither is also not taking snaps in practices due to cramping issues. Surely, San Diego's offense would struggle without the immense size, strength, and talent that Gaither brings to the line. Backup Quarterback Charlie Whitehurst has been experiencing problems with his ankle. Snaps have been taken by fresh free-agent pickup Kevin O'Connell, and un-drafted free agent Jarrett Lee. Though he isn't...

La Plata, Md., Tornado Remembered 10 Years Later
UPDATED April 28, 2012
By WeatherBug Meteorologist, Chad Merrill
A small town in a state where tornadoes seldom occur was ravaged by a deadly twister on this day one decade ago. Just 30 miles south of the nation`s capital, the small southern Maryland town of La Plata was nearly flattened by an F4 tornado that damaged more than half of the downtown buildings, claiming three lives.
The storm system responsible for the deadly La Plata twister began early on the morning of April 28, 2002, producing severe thunderstorms through the Ohio Valley. As a strong upper -level trough with fast- moving jet stream winds along a vigorous cold front moved east of the Ohio Valley, supercells, or rotating thunderstorms, quickly headed towards the Appalachian Mountains.
The storms raced across the Appalachian Ridge in Virginia between 3 and 4 p.m. While many of the storms weakened over the highest peaks of Virginia`s Blue Ridge Mountains, the storm that struck La Plata, Md., remained a strong supercell as it moved from West Virginia through northern Virginia into the warm and humid airmass over southern Maryland.
The tornado first touched down in Marbury, Md., 12 miles west of La Plata, at 6:56 p.m. EDT before intensifying to an F3 as it approached the west side of La Plata. A second weaker tornado then formed just south of the first tornado and both tornadoes crossed the heart of La Plata between 7:02 p.m. EDT and 7:07 p.m. EDT, causing widespread F2 and F3 damage.
The worst damage was rated F5 with winds between 261 and 318 mph. However, the National Weather Service assessment team later determined some of that was due to flying debris from a nearby lumber company. Therefore, the final assessment rated the tornado as an F4 with winds 207 to 260 mph on the Fujita Scale.
In total, 638 homes and 143 businesses were damaged. The twister racked up more than $100-million in damages.
These powerful tornadoes don`t occur regularly, especially in Maryland. Only one percent of tornadoes in the U.S. are rated F4 or F5 and Maryland has only seen four of these strong tornadoes since weather records started. Only six F4 tornadoes along the Atlantic Coast have occurred farther north and east of the La Plata storm. This isn`t the first time La Plata has been hit, another destructive tornado ripped through in November 1926.

Fight against AIDS gets Charlize Theron's Big Push at WEF

In an unlikely opening for an event known as annual congregation of movers and shakers of global economy, it is Oscar and Golden Globe winner Hollywood actress Charlize Theron getting awarded for her work towards fight against AIDS that has marked this year's annual meeting of the World Economic Forum.
Giving Theron company in getting accolades at this annual event in the Swiss ski town of Davos were Pakistani documentary filmmaker Sharmeen Obaid Chinoy and Brazilian artist Vik Muniz.
"I can think of no bigger shadow than the one cast upon Africa -- that is AIDS and HIV," Theron said after getting the Crystal Award in opening ceremony of WEF Annual Meeting last night.
Theron, whose native place happens to be Africa and who has been working towards fighting the widespread presence of this disease in the region, said that Africa accounts for two-third of the HIV/AIDS deaths worldwide, but time has come for everyone to come forward to ensure the first ever generation of no one being born with this virus.
A United Nations messenger for peace in Africa, Theron said that her aim is also to work towards making the youth of the region safe from AIDS.
Theron also had her portrait taken at the WEF summit for a campaign named 'Big Push' against diseases like AIDS/HIV, Malaria and TB.
Joining Theron as another Crystal Award winner, Chinoy said: "It is difficult for people like me to live in Pakistan. But I still live there because of the power of films."
Chinoy, who began writing at the age of 14 and whose documentary on acid attacks led to a major debate in Pakistan and elsewhere, said that it was the power of films that led to acid attacks on women being made a crime where people can be sent to jails.

Obama, Romney: Who will woo the most voters in the final days? (+video)
The polls show the race for president is still a dead heat. In the meantime, President Barack Obama and his Republican rival Mitt Romney scramble to make their final campaign stops in the last few days leading up to the election.
GREEN BAY, Wis.
President Barack Obama and Republican Mitt Romney went back on the attack on Thursday, breaking a storm-induced campaign truce to hit the road and pound home their closing messages in the final stretch of a tight battle for the White House.
With five days left until Tuesday's election, Obama received an endorsement from New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, resurrected his 2008 "change" slogan and said he was the only candidate who had actually fought for it.
Romney criticized Obama as a lover of big government who would expand the federal bureaucracy.
National polls show the race deadlocked, and Obama and Romney will spend the final days in eight swing states that will decide who wins the 270 electoral votes needed to capture the White House.
Obama made Wisconsin the first stop on a four-state swing on Thursday that also took him to rallies in Nevada and Colorado before going to Ohio for the night. Romney had a full day of campaigning across Virginia.
"You may be frustrated at the pace of change, but you know what I believe, you know where I stand," Obama told a crowd of 2,600 people on an airport tarmac in Wisconsin, a state that is a vital piece of his electoral strategy. "I know what change looks like because I've fought for it."
At a rally in Doswell, Virginia, Romney criticized Obama's comment that he would like to consolidate government agencies that deal with business issues in a new department under a secretary of business.
"I don't think adding a new chair to his Cabinet will help add millions of jobs on Main Street," Romney said.
Jobs will again be the focus of fierce debate on Friday when the government releases the unemployment figures for October. Any big change from the 7.8 percent number in September could potentially sway voters.
Obama and Romney had put campaigning on hold for several days as the historic storm Sandy pounded the eastern seaboard, leaving a trail of destruction and forcing Obama to turn his attention to storm relief.
That pause produced some unexpected political benefits for Obama, who won warm praise from Republican Governor Chris Christie of New Jersey, a Romney supporter, and he spent days directing federal relief efforts in a show of presidential leadership that largely sidelined Romney.
New York's Bloomberg - a Republican-turned-independent who did not back a candidate in 2008 - endorsed Obama and cited the Democrat's record on climate change, an issue that has gained more attention since the storm.
Bloomberg said Obama had taken significant steps to reduce carbon consumption, while Romney had backtracked on earlier positions he took as governor of Massachusetts to battle climate change. Obama said he was "honored" by the backing of Bloomberg, who flirted with White House runs in the past.
On their first day back on the trail, both Obama and Romney returned to political attacks but struck a slightly more positive tone than usual in trying to woo undecided voters and push their own supporters to vote.
In Doswell, Romney proclaimed his faith in the future and said, "The American people have what it takes to come out of these tough times."
In Wisconsin, Obama drew distinctions with Romney but dropped his usual reference to "Romnesia" - the term he uses to describe what he calls Romney's tendency to shift positions.
Swing-state advantage for ObamaÂ
Obama has a somewhat easier path to 270 electoral votes than Romney, fueled primarily by a small but steady lead in the vital battleground of Ohio - a crucial piece of any winning scenario for either candidate - and slight leads in Wisconsin, Iowa and Nevada.
Barring any surprises elsewhere, Obama can win a second term by capturing the Midwestern bastions of Ohio, Wisconsin and Iowa, and his schedule was aimed at shoring up his safety net there.
Obama plans to visit Ohio on each of the last four days of the campaign, and plans two more trips to Wisconsin and Iowa. He will conclude his campaign on Monday night with rock singer Bruce Springsteen in Iowa, where a 2008 caucus win launched his run to the presidency.
So far, Obama has planned just one visit each in the final days to Florida and Virginia, where most polls give Romney a slight lead. Romney will hit Wisconsin and Ohio on Friday, and New Hampshire, Iowa and Colorado on Saturday.
Romney plans to finish up his campaign on Monday night in New Hampshire, the state where he launched his bid last year.
Romney's campaign has aired ads in recent days in the Democratic-leaning states of Michigan, Pennsylvania and Minnesota, hoping to put them in play after polls showed the races tightening but Obama still ahead.
The campaign said Romney would visit Pennsylvania on Sunday, marking his first campaign visit since the nominating convention to one of his new target states. A win in Pennsylvania would be a crippling blow to Obama, but most public polls still show Obama leading there.
Romney aides said the moves into those three new states were a sign of their growing momentum, although Obama aides described them as a desperate ploy to find new paths to 270 electoral votes.
A Reuters/Ipsos national online poll on Thursday showed the race remained effectively deadlocked, with Obama at 47 percent to Romney's 46 percent. Most national polls showed roughly similar results.
Most swing-state polls have found Obama clinging to slender leads in five of the eight most heavily contested states - Ohio, Wisconsin, Iowa, Nevada and New Hampshire. In most polls, Romney has a slight lead in Florida, while Virginia and Colorado were effectively tied.
A Reuters/Ipsos online poll on Thursday showed Obama with a 5-point lead in Virginia, and 2-point leads among likely voters in both Ohio and Florida. Romney led by 1 point in Colorado in the Reuters/Ipsos polls.

A company you can trust
I reached out to GDS when the chain kept popping off of my opener. Jason guided me through what he thought was the issue and took the time to educate me on the choices. The next morning they were out to install the new motor I wanted, and to run cable for my springs. I generally don't trust service companies, but can honestly say these guys deliver on what they promise. Additionally, they are a great value. If you are looking for a great experience (if there is such a thing), then GDS is your company

Old Spice Guy Can't Quite Get the Ice Bucket Challenge Right
by Mike Stanz
posted Aug 26 2014 5:00AM
Isaiah Mustafa – probably better known as the Old Spice Guy – tried to do his part and participate in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge.
He tried three times. He tried his best. He really did.
But for whatever reason, he just couldn't manage to get wet. Something to do with perfectly-toned man muscles.
I never heard that in biology or physics class – that perfectly-toned man muscles repelled good ol' H2O – but maybe I was out those days.
Check it out. It's a pretty cool challenge video. Since he didn't get wet, that's not a pun…

There seemed to be a sigh of relief the last few months of 2012 as the trade publishing establishment trumpeted the slowing growth of e-book sales. It may indeed be slowing, but the pain of adjusting to new economies of scale, changing consumer habits, technology adoption and lack of business model options are even bigger threats to the independence of large traditional publishers.
The digital revolution has had an undeniable impact on how businesses operate. Costly technology and complex analog media production (music, publishing, film) are no longer the purview of large organizations. With lower technology costs and easy access to Internet-hosted markets, self-publishers can compete effectively with large companies. Computers have given way to smartphones, and cloud-based tools allow anyone to produce and distribute media. No more silos.
Amazon, Apple, Barnes & Noble, Google, Kobo, Samsung and Sony: The Seven Sisters
The Seven Sisters—Amazon, Apple, Barnes & Noble, Google, Kobo, Samsung and Sony—will deepen their control through their own eco-systems at the expense and frustration of publishers. How is this possible?
Each of the Seven Sisters produce hardware that is tightly coupled with digital media marketplaces—an eco-system.
Why is this powerful? For three reasons:
- The threat of piracy has scared media companies to demand that those selling their content also control its distribution. While it's possible to do this with software-only programs, it's more easily implemented using one's own hardware.
- Consumers prefer simplicity! This is what made the Apple iPod/iTunes combination so popular and gave the Amazon Kindle such a commanding lead. Average consumers don't want to deal with the complexity of collecting, storing, tracking and transferring files to and between devices.
- The third advantage has less to do with publishing and everything to do with business models. The Seven Sisters have multiple revenue streams they can tap to help sustain their advance into digital media retailing. They are not reliant solely on the sale or rental of media products.
Questions to Ask
As we head into the New Year, it'll be interesting to see how each company evolves its position and how publishers will respond. Here are my questions for each of the Seven Sisters:
- Can Amazon continue to subsidize hardware with razor-thin retail margins? Will Prime membership result in more digital media consumption?
- Can Apple's commanding market share of hardware sales continue in the face of so many competitors? Can they build demand for differentiated media products that work only with their hardware?
- Even with the backing of Microsoft and Pearson, can Barnes & Noble/Nook survive as a major content retailer?
- Can Google become a major media retailer even as Amazon and Apple invade its advertising franchise? Can Google balance its own hardware efforts at Motorola with support for its Android partners?
- Will the sum of its international market presence be enough for Kobo to compete effectively with Amazon and Apple? Just how committed is parent company Rakuten [2]?
- Samsung may be struggling to get traction for Media Hub [3], but they somehow overtook Nokia and now Apple in mobile phone sales. Expertise in hardware helped Apple build a media franchise; can Samsung follow the same playbook?
- That leaves Sony. Unlike the other six, they seem to be running every unit independently without a strong vision or strategy, at least when it comes to selling content and the hardware to consume it. They are also a true international player. Will Sony finally coordinate its efforts in 2013?
Do you have other questions? Am I leaving out any "sisters"?

They're few and far between...
I have been a little apprehensive to try an online dating site but, realize its difficult to find a great woman out there. So, where to start... I am an adventurous person and like to be engaged in recreational activities both outdoors and in. I have a great sense of humor and love to laugh and joke around. I can be sarcastic and enjoy many forms of humor. I enjoy talking, spending time relaxing together and can show my sensitive side with the right women. I feel I am a great listener and advice giver. I like to consider myself a man's man, I wasn't spoon fed and have worked hard to get to where I am. I quit drinking 4 years ago and my party days are far behind me. This does not mean that don't know how to have fun, I just do it without alcohol. I am looking for a match to potentially settle down with. I am looking for a mature woman who knows how to have fun, knows what she wants in life and isn't afraid to go and get it. A woman who is down to earth and intelligent. I don't like to be too particular as to what I'm looking for in a woman because everyone has different personalities, and I like many types. I like to keep an open mind. I am retired from 10 years of active duty in the Army. I have been back in Minnesota for a few years building my life as a civilian. I am a very goal oriented person and tend to do what is necessary to achieve my goals. I am very patriotic and intend to pursue that which is the American dream! If you would like to know more about me, email me and maybe we can get to know each other.

Virtual hard disk (VHD) is a disk image file format for storing the complete contents of a hard drive. The disk image, sometimes called a virtual machine, replicates an existing hard drive and includes all data and structural elements. It can be stored anywhere the physical host can access.
There are two main types of virtual hard disks: fixed-size and dynamically expanding. Both types have a maximum size value that specifies how large the disk will appear to virtual machines. However, fixed-size VHDs will automatically take up the specified amount of physical disk space on the host computer's file system, whereas dynamically expanding disks will allocate space only as needed.

1990 Dodge Ram Van B250 Q&A
1990 Dodge Ram Van B250 Question: No fuel flow to throttle body
I have no power to the green wire on passenger side under rear bumper with ignition on. Should there be constant power there or just a pulse until key is in cranking position? Also, can pump relay on firewall be replaced with a standard automotive relay? I see the stock relay has no connector in the middle position as on a standard relay. Lastly, there is an empty gray relay socket near the center of the firewall. Before knowing the location of the fuel pump relay, I plugged a standard relay into it--could this have fried the fuel pump relay, fuel pump, or another component that would cause no fuel to get to the throttle body? - Visitor
Answer 1
Don't swap relays, even if the pins physically fit in the socket, some relays are naturally open some are naturally close and pin configuration may be similar but the internals can be wired differently. I wish I had time tonight to research your question. I can only right now direct you to information that may be useful. Autozone have some popular workshop manuals for free on line once you register (for free) on their website http://bit.ly/autozone_repair_info. and get an online repair manual subscription. There is a company that independent auto repair shops buy their information from that the same information inexpensively to do it yourselfers. The information is year make and model specific repair procedures, service bulletins, component locations, wiring diagrams ect.... Alldata is very easy to navigate http://bit.ly/AllData_Repair_Manuals_Online I like Alldata, it has good explanations of the theory of how things work. - patrick mannion

Anyone care to offer their best investment ideas outside of the shipping sector? I am happy to go first:
- Autos: The average age of the US light vehicle is at or near a record and and used car values are at relatively high levels (see the Mannheim index). Consumer confidence is improving as have the the pace of unemployment filings. Not surprisingly, new vehicle sales have been trending up. At the same time, all the pain the industry has gone through has resulted in rock-bottom fixed costs and automakers and major parts suppliers have the ability to break even at very low sales levels. Despite all of this, the stocks get no respect from the market. My preferred picks are F and AXL. F is probably the less risky play, as the company has fixed its balance sheet and is one of the greatest success stories in modern manufacturing, given that they were down to hocking teh blue oval a few years ago. AXL is riskier given their more leverd balance sheet, but the company is a world class manufacturer of parts that simply must be made well and as they expand their sales base beyond GM they will grow sales like crazy even if US industry volumes stagnate.
- US oil and gas (especially gas): Onshore producers who are weighted toward gas are out of favor. Nat gas prices are in the basement given the glut of shale gas. At $3 an MCF, gas is now low enough that produces generally do not make money on new production. Not surprisingly, gas rig counts have been falling, which augurs for a supply and price correction in the medium term. In the meantime, there are a ton of major gas users circling around the cheap gas in the US. No cheap resouce goes unused for long, and just in the methanol industry there has been a plant restarted that had been mothballed for years and other players are considering setting up plants in the US (such as industry leader Methanex). I think gas prices will eventually rebound and producers are switching to oil production in the meantime. I like CHK the best, but the whole industry is so cheap you could scoop up several names (DVN and UPL are attractive, IMO).
Just added TPLM to my list of drillers which included KOG and WLL.
There is nothing but higher oil prices in the future with Iran. Also oil production is dropping fast in Mexico and Venezuela, major US suppliers.
Buy C under $30, when and lf Europe finally stabalizes or if it implodes buy C at $18 or below.
I have a GTC order @$18 in case Europe collapses
I just put a GTC order in for c at 18.01 --- not! couldnt pass up the joke. I really like HL before todays 10% gain. will be intersting to see what all the option activity meant after expiration (super unusually large number of Jan 6's. I also like the Microsoft (yep, hard to believe)-- their automotive division is going to rock for the next few years with blue tooth. I also would be a big buyer of BHP if it go back down a little more for me-- into all mined products and in a couple years will be a big potash producer-- another plus is that it is Australian. BTW folks--whats the best foreign stocks (want more non-dollar exposure)
yeah, buy the s-house banks...suckers needed.
Banks are run by psychopathic criminals. All the ponzi schemers just want to return to business as usual--robbing you and your retirement. Sure Fraud St would love everyone to forget what's happened and just throw your money back to these freaks that produce nothing themselves and rely solely on your losses to pay for their lavish lifestyles. Yeah, they need your money all right.
Well too bad the smart people aren't going to put ANY money in the ponzi markets. This leaves only the not-so-smart and poor...and they don't make good financial victims now do they?
I have been building a position with dal, smart ceo. He is carefully working to build cash flow, pay down debt. They hedge conservatively and come in better than the other airlines in that area.They have created great routes and partnerships in asia and south america, while recently expanding domestics from new york. They got rid of older planes and have reduced capacity. 2011 eps should come in at least 1.31 with analyst expectations for 2+ in 2012, closed fri at 8.10. It has been in the 7.5-8.75 range for awhile. jmho, gl!
BDCs are offering some great yields, but my two favorite are GAIN & TICC.
I really like them because they have no debt - they just recycle capital once old loans are paid off which seems pretty darn smart to me. TICC has the better yield (9-11%) but pays quarterly. Don't own yet...
GAIN is a little more risky because management runs a sister company GLAD, so may be some asset swapping between the two companies? Don't know.
Some risk yes, but GAIN's fundamentals are sterling and they pay monthly. MONTHLY! Yielding between 6-8% a year. Own some.
I looked over AINV which is in the same sector (Providing loans to smaller firms who struggle to access the bond market)
What I saw there was a NAV that was in constant freefall and dividends being paid out of that NAV, not earnings. They were takeing regular losses on the loans, but calling them one-time adjustments so as to still report a profit. Outsized dividends are used to dazzle the investor so that he doesn't look at the fundamentals too hard. You might want to take a second look.
dvn finds the nat gas and epd moves it with a 5% divy.
I have been heavily buying KOG and WLL on dips. I love that light Bakken crude. Oil is going over $100 and if Iran blows up we could see $150 oil. I think the Williston Basin oil play will be the big story of 2012.
Just thought I'd give you an update.That HFC I bought befor X-mas is now up over 12% with plenty of room to run. Better get in quick though.
I have been watching KOG too. The recent run up has me holding off for a good dip.I agree the Williston will be important.Did some research on PQ as well and the future looks bright.Check it out.GLTA
I don't see anything fantastic but I lean towards OXY, MRO and TOO which I consider energy more than shipping. Gotta have GLNG, though.
PETEF.PK Primary Petroleum Corporation
I like the oiland gas play. I just got back into HFC at below book today.Look it over I think you'll like what you see.
Take a look at Baja Mining (BAJ.TO, there is a pink-sheet version BAJFF.pk in the US exchanges).
Fully funded copper mining company, currently doing construction with mining-start to begin in Q1-Q2 2013. On budget and on-time so far during construction.
You run the risk of delays, etc -- of course. But look into it, badly mispriced to cashflow they will produce in 2013+. One of my favorite positions =).
Favorite REIT: RSO
RSO is a small cap commercial REIT that gets lumped into agency REITs for whatever reason and thus has the yield of one when it in fact is not an agency REIT. Has been paying a good dividend even through the massacre of 2008 and had/has a low amount of delinquent loans compared to peers. Runner up is NCT, I like the reward vs. risk.
Favorite China play: CYD
Another small cap and quite volatile. Had a brutal 2011 given the perceived slowdown within China. Develops/produces diesel engines for a variety of applications, from cars to buses to heavy machinery, even generators. There is a lot going on within CYD that is too much to write here. I'd advise going to the CYD board to learn more details for those interested. It pays a dividend but the amount is volatile. It paid a $0.50 general dividend in March of 2011 plus a special dividend of $1.00
Favorite sin stock: PM
Philip Morris has had a great 2011 and seems to be chugging along quite nicely. I like the % of revenue generated from outside the USA, which gives it a nice advantage IMO compared to Altria and others. Good dividend and not as much legal battles as Altria also.
Favorite MLP: EVEP
Good future for EVEP I think. Good current yield on stock and room for growth given the land it holds.

Patrick rebounds from fumble in Lubbock
OU back rushes for 202 yards and three scores in Bedlam
NORMAN — Not long before Bedlam, Bob Stoops took Allen Patrick aside and told him to forget about the fumble. Because Stoops had let it go, Patrick was able to let it go, too.
"He told me to clear my head," Patrick said. "He told me not to worry about last week and to play my game." Coming off the worst game of his career, Patrick played his best against Oklahoma State as the Sooners rolled to their fifth consecutive Bedlam victory 49-17 Saturday before 85,238 at Owen Field to clinch the Big 12 South championship for the sixth time in Stoops' nine seasons at OU. "I'm really proud of Allen Patrick," said Stoops, who gave Patrick the first game ball in the locker room. "He is a hard-playing, tough example for our team." With leading rusher DeMarco Murray out with a dislocated kneecap, Patrick carried the rushing load against the Cowboys. In all, Patrick finished with a career-high 202 yards on 29 carries and three touchdowns, displaying a blend of speed and power not seen since OU's Big 12 opener at Colorado. Before OSU, Patrick had 236 yards combined over OU's last six games, a total he nearly outdid against the Pokes alone. "I felt like my old self today," Patrick said. "I wasn't playing my best football for a period of time. "I wanted to come out here and show everybody I could still run the ball." This week leading up to Bedlam had been rough on Patrick, after he fumbled on OU's first offensive play last weekend at Texas Tech. Not only did the Red Raiders recover, quarterback Sam Bradford was knocked out of the game with a concussion after tackling Tech's Marlon Williams, who had picked up the ball. The play deflated the Sooner sideline, and they couldn't rebound in time to avoid a 34-27 upset, which knocked OU out of the national title race. Last week, Stoops didn't shy away from pointing out to the media how critical Patrick's fumble was.

The Oversee'er
Marilyn McNish
Painting - Acrylic On Canvas
The spirituality of the Eagle represents spiritual protection, carries prayers, and brings strength, courage, wisdom, illumination of spirit, healing, creation, and a knowledge of magic. The eagle has an ability to see hidden spiritual truths, rising above the material to see the spiritual. The eagle has an ability to see the overall pattern, and the connection to spirit guides and teachers. The eagle represents great power and balance, dignity with grace, a connection with higher truths, intuition and a creative spirit grace achieved through knowledge and hard work.
The dictionary of scripture and myth, describes the eagle as;
A symbol of the holy spirit, which flies, as it were, through the mind (air) from the higher nature (heaven) to the lower nature (earth) and soars aloft to the self (sun).
In the spring many eagles visited out home and I managed to capture a photo that I then painted to call it the Oversee'er... Legend has it t
he most frequent the animal that visits determines the significance of the year.

What an incredible painting of this beautiful eagle! I love the angle of the bird and his regal expression. lovely detail, fv and vt, thank you for the lovley comment too, you have a great gallery!
As I live and work with the aboriginals (First Nations) here, their faith is in the Creator. The eagle represents love and spiritual protection. In Christianity it's a symbol of the holy spirit. I was sooo excited when I was able to capture this in a photo and put it on canvas, and it seemed to me this fellow/gal was very courting? to have it's picture taken. Almost as though it knew what | would do if I would capture it's photo... LOL I was very, very lucky... Many thanks for your comments and visit to my website Judy!

RallyMoto Racing Clinic prior to Sandblast Rally
Interested in participating in a RallyMoto event but not sure you're ready or maybe you are a competitor wanting to improve. Nows the chance to test the waters, learn a little, ride a lot and have fun! You don't have to be a racer to participate in...
BC Moto Rally Racing Clinic. Don't let the competition get a wheel on you, come ride, learn and have fun! A comprehensive clinic giving tips and strategies on roll chart use, riding techniques, terrain reading, line selection, time keeping and practice, practice, practice!
The day will start with a brief "classroom session" followed with drills working on braking, cornering, riding techniques and conclude with plenty of practice on a "rally stage" to put it all together. Whether you are a seasoned competitor, a novice rally racer, or maybe just interested in getting a taste of RallyMoto, this is a great chance to get accustomed to the sand while shaking off the cobwebs with tons of seat time. The class will utilize two sections of Sand Hills Forest roads unique to this clinic and are closed to the public. Rider safety is most important, while we encourage everyone to work on improving their skills and speed, this is a time to prepare for the race, not race day. Save the "little extra" for the Sandblast Rally!
Class will start at 9:00 AM and conclude at 5:00 PM with a break for lunch.
Participants will use their personal dual sport motorcycle and are responsible for their own fuel and lunch. The group will be going to a local restaurant or you are welcome to pack a sack lunch.
Space is limited, don't miss out!
Registration fee: $125

Limited-time feature
37 year old man | Costa Mesa, CA, USA | Seeking women 23-36 within 25 miles of Irvine, CA
Active within 3 days
Life is short! Scroll down.
I'm very hard-working and ambitious, but I also love to go out and enjoy myself when I can. Most of my workday is intellectually demanding so I try to spend the off time being more active and getting outdoors -- biking, hiking, sailing, and so on. Although I still enjoy meeting women the old-fashioned way, I figured I would try out this website to see if it offers advantages that the bars do not. I don't really have a lofty agenda for registering; I have more of a "let's see what happens" attitude. So, a little about my background: I grew up in the Midwest, went to school in Virginia (It's for Lovers, but is it the East or the South?), and moved out to California about four years ago so I'd never have to see snow again. If you've ever had to shovel snow, this is basically paradise. So now I'm the guy wearing shorts and driving around with the top down in December. (I still have no explanation for why I decided to go to Iceland for vacation...) I am always having too many interests at the same time, which makes makes it hard to decide how to spend my spare time. I'm starting to get into cycling and am hoping to do RAGBRAI this July. I want to climb Kilimanjaro next year. Also, I'd like to take six months off and go to Australia. Actually...if anyone reading this lives there please let me move there. I'll clean your pool, till your garden, whatever you need done. I tend to like women who are talkative and assertive, but I don't feel like I have a particular type. I look for pretty standard things: intelligence, physical attractiveness, and honesty. But I've always sided with the view that the characteristics you can put down on paper aren't nearly as important as whether your personalities naturally click -- and that's something you can't figure out until you get to know someone. Anyway, thanks for stopping by my profile, and don't hesitate to shoot me an e-mail if you're interested in talking.
