A few thoughts on "Envisioning the Seen"
I continue to be embroiled in discussions, in the newsroom, via email and out in the community, with people who want to talk about "Envisioning the Seen," the experiment in civic dialogue that took place Monday evening at the Pabst Theater.
It's a sign, I think, that the event, despite its flaws, is novel, gutsy and full of promise. For a lot of reasons, I decided not to write about it earlier this week, mostly because I'd be repeating myself. This event was so like the ones that came before. But I might as well commit to words what I've been saying and emailing privately. »Read Full Blog Post(8)
John Legend woos audience with smooth and sexy demeanor
Fellas, are you striking out in the ladies' department? Then take a few tips from the John Legend playbook, as displayed at the R&B star's capacity Riverside Theater show Monday night.
When you take off your blazer (or, if one's not in your possession, your Packers jacket), pacing is key. Slip it off the left arm...sloowwwwly. Pop that shoulder. Take a pause (one Mississippi, two Mississippi), then smoothly slide it all off. »Read Full Article(3)
Mark Rylance storms Broadway with 'Richard III,' 'Twelfth Night'
New York — Thirty-odd years ago, Mark Rylance was a University School of Milwaukee high school student performing as Hamlet under director Dale Gutzman, whom Rylance continues to credit for kindling a love of Shakespeare and theater.
Cut to the present, in which the London-based Rylance is taking Broadway by storm — in repertory performances at the Belasco Theatre as Olivia in "Twelfth Night" and the title role in "Richard III" — that could add a third Tony to his trophy case. Having recently caught both performances, it's easy to see why. »Read Full Article

Yesterday, RadarOnline.com ran a story claiming Ben Affleck visited Lindsay Lohan in rehab to offer her a role in a movie. "Sure," we said.
"Only one of the most respected actor/director/producers in Hollywood went to visit the biggest train wreck in Hollywood at rehab!" we said. "Like THAT will EVER happen!"
Well, turns out it DID. However, Ben didn't go to offer Lindsay a movie role, he just went to chit-chat about sobriety.
TMZ is reporting that Lindsay got a day pass to leave the Cliffside rehab facility to meet up with Ben.
If you recall, Ben once went to rehab for addiction in 2001 and now he's made one of the biggest comebacks in Hollywood.
He just went to talk to Lindsay about her career and how to get it back, offering advice on staying sober in Hollywood.
Ben's just a really nice guy that likes to do things like to help others.
However, he did NOT offer Lindsay a role in any movie. He's a nice guy, but not THAT nice.

I take a long trip to India
it was Just a regular vacation
and It was time of dewali
the festival of lights celebration
So I help set up the deyas
Throw the oil and make it light
And they all said to me
Brother you are a Hindu tonight
Then I went to Iraq
To visit my best friends
They both were well dress
In the best Islamic trends
it was the end of Ramadan?
so they prepared a feast after we pray
Then they all said to me
Brother you are a Muslim today
with many I stand at the wall
In the holy city of Jerusalem
here should be a place of peace
But it got so many problems
It's the eight nights of Hanukah
So I help light the candles too
And they all said to me
Brother tonight you are a Jew
Back in New York now
enjoying Christmas time
By my Christian friends home
Having fruit cake and wine
I carry gifts for the children
Helping with the decoration
And they all said to me
brother today you are a Christian
And as I drove home
I think of the people I met
And the memories they give
and what I learn I will never forget
Why can't we find peace?
I come to one conclusion
Its the Governments who wants
The world to live in confusion
If we respect each other
Then the world will live as one
And from the kindness of our hearts
The hope of peace will be born
So let's start with our self
And spread it down the line
I think we can do it
Changing one heart at a time

G650 Cold Stalling Problems
Can relate to the cold stalling problems with the 2009 G650 x-country. I had mine back and forth to the dealer a number of times trying different things. I bought a new battery, a battery tender to keep it charged, only buy brand name 91 octane fuel. All these things helped, but it still stalled when cold or ran lean. The dealer was out of ides. I called BMW customer service finally at the suggestion of the dealer, since BMW had not suggested anything that worked either. Finally someone at BMW suggested downloading the G650 gs download into my g650 x-country after getting some pressure from customer service. To do this required some trickery, but it seems to have worked. It is four weeks later and I have not had a stall and when cold the bike does not run lean. Along the way the tech at the local dealership also found an almost ready to fall off terminal lug on the positive side of the battery. He soldered it for a secure connection. Hope this helps.

The pulse generator is a separate issue, caused by metal particles from the starter clutch shorting out the pulse generator. This may mean that the started clutch also needs replacing.

Yes, the problem still exists. Now that the weather is cooling off here, it's a daily hassle, and BMW's customer service on the issue hasn't improved. I'm bumping this thread to raise awareness for those contemplating buying this model, and also continuing to try to work with my nearest BMW dealer to implement some of the ideas suggested here!

I had the exact same thing and now my bike runs perfect everyday. Fix it - you will love the bike afterwards. Here is what fixed it for me:
1) clean the idle actuator and throttle body with carb cleaner (mine wasn't very dirty) - then run Seafoam through a few tanks of high quality ethanol-free gas to finish the cleaning.
2) remove the charcoal canister - google G650X Canisterectomy or similar to find instructions. Do it, don't worry about the warranty.
3) Install Leo Vince X3 pipe. I use the quiet insert.
4) reset the throttle body with the key on / key off full gas maneuver - Drone knows the exact procedure.
My bike has run perfect every single day since these changes and was a real pain in the ass, especially in the winter, before these changes.
The other things that greatly improved the bike for me were removing one of the throttle return strings (there are at least two - this is where the throttle cable ends, use a needle nose plier to remove one and leave it loose in there) and finally - replacing the stock grips.

Yeah, I need to do #1. I already have done #s 2, 3 and 4.
I do wonder about the correlation between colder weather and dirty idle actuator--it doesn't seem intuitive. Well, after this weekend we'll see!

Update--the idle air controller and throttle body were clean as a whistle--as expected, this bike has never been off road. Carb cleaned it all anyway, put it back together, fired it up. It stalled within a minute. Fired it up again, it stalled inside 30 seconds.

1) G650Xs are very picky about battery voltage. I had erratic starting because my battery was toast.
2) Follow the procedure in this post, it may well solve the problem. http://www.advrider.com/forums/showp...postcount=5702
#2 is really cool. I see you've done it before -- do it again!!

I am wondering how many of you still have your sidestand safety switch still installed. It sadly determines if your bike will start or not. I'm not saying it's your problem, but it can make it hard to diagnose another problem if it is intermittently acting up. I have 12K on my 09Xco. I had expierienced these stalling issues at about 1500 miles, and also had it feel like the bike was cutting out on bumpy roads. I did away with the switch and have never had a starting/running issue since. I take that back. My stock exhaust also clogged causing poor performance due to excessive backpressure. It may be worth bypassing the sidestand switch just to see.
The more parts I replace with non BMW/Aprilla parts, the better my bike gets. SAD!
Good luck everyone! I'd say we are on our own as BMW seems less than willing to help. I think the warranty is useless, as I don't want you to replace my failed part with another part from your new/old stock that will fail again.

Hey Geoffster. Thanks, yes, I tried that before going the carb cleaner route (hoping to not buy any carb cleaner, heh). Mike, I do have the sidestand safety still installed. The problem isn't that the bike won't start. It also dies while on the sidestand trying to warm up. Your solution is logical and sensible for you, but since I don't ride this bike off-road, I don't see the same kind of issue you did. Plus, it's happening now that the weather is colder, not with any change in riding habit, which might otherwise point me in your direction.
I'm reluctant to change the battery but can certainly see why it might make sense. Although, I've had bikes with electrical system faults before (I spent many an hour addressing my Tiger's) and haven't seen a weak battery produce a strong start but an occasional stall when under power.
...Next step: I'm genuinely curious why BMW would let this sorry state of affairs persist. Sent to Customer Service:

G650X Stalling Issue
Guys, this subject has been run into the gound on the "Show us your X Country" thread. At the risk of I will repost what I compiled in the other thread. I had this problem and I searched the Web over top-to-bottom and fixed my bike, here are the recommended steps.
In agreement with what others have said, this is not 'normal' and is repairable. That said, it is not entirely uncommon either, mine did this exact same thing when I bought it used. I was able to fix mine and it starts, idles and runs as smooth as can be now. All the information you need to fix this problem is out there in this thread and/or the web but it does take some sifting thru and there is some mis-information out there. I would do the following steps in this order. Details on how to do these things can be found elsewhere. I did not do the things in green to my bike but I have heard they may help, I am doing the plugs and air cleaner the next time I do a full service but my standard components are working great.
The stalling issue was a complete and utter annoyance to me and I spent a lot of time working on this. Please don't put it off, the bike is SO MUCH more fun when it runs right! I think it is even dangerous as I had it stall as I was pulling out into traffic and it scared the hell out of me.

Tip Over Valve Removal

Ever since then the stalling problem has gone away.

The parts just snap out and can be saved and re-installed later if needed. I really have no idea why this helped but it did. Hope this helps someone.

Greetings from Oregon!
First I'd like to thank everyone who has contributed info and suggestions on these stalling problems. I took a moto class and got my license 4 years ago, but just recently bought an Xco as my first bike. I love the bike, hate the closed-source nature of servicing it. I've printed out this thread and others (it has been such a help having pictures to reference) and am on my own personal quest to defeat my G650X's cold-engine stalling issue.
I'll post my own observations here along the way. Hopefully it will help someone else down the line.
My Xco currently starts up and immediately stalls (1-3 seconds) when cold. The weather is colder now than it was early last month when I bought the bike- back then it would run for 10-20 seconds before stalling. I can either opt to continue starting it many times, or I can apply the throttle for about a minute to get it past the point of stalling. When I use the throttle, after a second or two the RPMs start decreasing and at this point I know the bike is about to stall. I increase the throttle to prevent the stalling, and after a few seconds the bike "catches on" / "pops the fuel bubble" / WTF is happening, and the RPMs skyrocket as the engine actually gets the oomph I've been applying from the throttle. My neighbors probably think I'm being an ass, when in reality I just want to start my bike. Now that the bike is running, if I turn it off and go to start it again it will usually exhibit the same behavior. The engine needs to be very warm for it to start right up and stay running.
The first thing I did was to clean the throttle body and idle actuator without removing them. In hindsight this was a pointless step, as not much additional work is required to just pop out the whole throttle body and give it a good deep cleaning.
Next (still stalling, no difference) I went down to NAPA and picked up one can each of Seafoam and Lucas fuel injector cleaner. I'm running the last of the Seafoam through the tank now. A tank or two later I'll add the Lucas. Hilariously, after half the Seafoam treatment, the stalling happens sooner after ignition. It could be the colder weather or that the treatment has knocked residue elsewhere but somewhere there's a BMW engineer laughing at me for not having a $6k computer and a way to communicate with the onboard computer as this could be completely unrelated.
I followed instructions to remove the throttle body and cleaned it out along with the idle actuator. This bike has been used on the dirt by previous owners so these components were pretty filthy. I used carb cleaner and Q-tips to get it nice and clean and then reinstalled everything. In the process I also cleaned off the injector which was filthy as well.
This made no difference, so I decided to change out the spark plugs with new NGK DR8EB 's. NAPA didn't have them, but Amazon does. I didn't have a thin-walled 18mm socket (though I will soon) so I had to remove the rocker cover (after removing throttle bracket) to gain access to them, and although this was easier than it looked, I was very cautious about dirt/grime falling into the engine from around the edge. I used compressed air and shop cloths to ease my mind. With the rocker cover hanging off to the side, I used compressed air again to spray filth out from the spark plug recesses. Oh, one thing to add, the plug wires are a pain in the ass to remove unless you have BMW's official tool (OEM 90886123561 [1] [2]). The old plugs came out easy, the wires are the trickiest part. Sadly the new plugs didn't make a difference in the stalling department. I didn't think they would, but for $8 for new plugs I figured it was a safe bet.
Most recently my focus has shifted to the engine coolant temperature sensor (OEM 13621703993). I got out my multimeter and measured the resistance between the top two pins (the only two in use when connected) when cold and after running the engine. I need to read it again to make sure. Cold, I read 3.92 K, and warm, 0.17 K. (The resistance increases as the temperature gets cooler.) I also measured 1.9 K to the ECU from the ECT plug. I need to take another set of readings before deciding on whether or not to buy a new sensor for $20 (more like $35 shipped) but it makes sense that this could be the culprit. Interestingly, I started up the bike with the ECT disconnected and it seemed like it was going to run perfectly- it didn't stall for about 20 seconds.
Last week I broke down and decided to buy a GS-911 to talk to my onboard computer, only to find out this week it's out of stock for another week or so. Being that the riding season is almost over, I cancelled my order. Figure I'll have plenty of time to tinker with it while the snow is falling. It would be great to find or borrow a used GS-911, but confidence is low.
On a positive note, last night marked my first night riding session AND my first ride into town. Had to get that ballot dropped off somehow!
Again, thanks everyone for posting what has/hasn't worked for you. I'll try to keep this updated to fight the good fight. I love this bike but can't accept the cold stalling as if it's a design feature. I'd rather save the stalling occasions for being in third gear at a stoplight, as I did last night.

I also have this problem, but have noticed that it seems like when the battery is freshly charged, above about 13, it runs great. I have a short commute (10 min) and moreoever the bike sometimes sits for a week or more at a time, and I think this tends to run down the battery, and the stalling becomes progressively worse at the battery drops below 13. It is easy to track this by showing battery strength on the dashboard.
Adventure is just another word for poor planning.

Last night I performed the canisterectomy (following the excellent guides by Flo_Evans and kres). Used a vacuum cap ($8, set of 16) and a 3/8" fuel line coupler ($5, set of two). Getting the coupler all the way into the hoses was a pain, but putting a thin layer of new motor oil on it made it a slightly easier job. The vacuum line I was already familiar with after spending so much time around the throttle body. Used one of the clamps from the now-discarded "big hose" to hold the cap on it.
Started it up and it ran for a good 30 seconds before the stall. It hadn't been started for two days and was on charge for that full duration, so I consider this an improvement. The bike was also running with noticeably more power.
Next I'll be changing out my coolant ($78, case of 4 Engine Ice 1/2 gal.) and coolant temperature sensor ($20 shipped). I suspect this bike hasn't ever had its coolant changed (nothing in docs/service receipts) in the past 3 years, so it's a worthwhile endeavor, especially since some of the coolant has to be removed to cleanly take out the sensor. Also, I confirmed a resistance on the currently-installed sensor on a very cold bike, when the new sensor is reads OL/no resistance. So I'm hoping it is in fact a bad sensor here.
I don't like throwing money at the bike, but it's turned out to be quite a learning experience, and my DIY service manual (courtesy of you all) seems to grow by the week. Which is good thing, not just because it may add to the perceived value when I eventually sell it, but also because the knockoff workshop service DVD I bought on ebay from Canada has evidently been lost in the mail.

To Start or Not to Start?
Neftali Feliz and C.J. Wilson will report to Surprise as candidates for the starting rotation. When the Rangers announced these plans there were essentially three spots open and the Rangers had little money to spend on upgrades so it was realistic at the time.
A winter of genius roster retooling by Rangers General Manager Jon Daniels has reduced the open spots to one, making the odds of Feliz and Wilson cracking the rotation less than slim.
Considering how careful the Rangers were last season with Feliz's arm the organization will probably ease him into the rotation later in the '10 season or even wait until 2011 to keep his innings down. Especially considering the massive hole the Rangers would create in the bullpen should Feliz move into the rotation.
The same could be said for C.J. Wilson, a decision that has been a mindbender since the Rangers announced he would be stretched out this spring. Wilson was a starter his first year in the majors and struggled immensely going 1-7 with a 6.94 ERA in 2005.
The Rangers moved the eccentric southpaw to the pen the next season and his career began to take off. Now that his focus is on using his dominant pitches instead of developing a laundry list of below average pitches, Wilson has become an elite set-up man for closer Frank Francisco.
The Rangers would be wise not to mess up Wilson's career track by putting him in the rotation.
Prediction: Both start the season in the bullpen setting up Francisco.
Who's the Fifth Starter?
The Rangers have four starters penciled into the rotation and are likely to open the season with Rich Harden, Scott Feldman, Colby Lewis and Tommy Hunter in the first four spots.
Derek Holland, Matt Harrison, Brandon McCarthy, Neftali Feliz and CJ Wilson will compete for the final spot with those missing out on the rotation heading for the bullpen or AAA rotation. Odds are the Rangers will have some major league ready starters in Oklahoma City in case of injury or ineffectiveness at the major league level.
Feliz and Wilson were covered in the first question so let's focus on the remaining three contenders. Considering the first four members of the rotation are all right handed pitchers, the two contenders from the left side would seem to have the advantage over McCarthy, especially considering the health risk McCarthy brings to the table.
However, when McCarthy has been on the mound lately he has been good enough to warrant a long look in Surprise this March. Despite all the right-handers in the rotation already, McCarthy has just as good a chance as Harrison and Holland.
Matt Harrison was putting together a fine first half of the season before becoming yet another member of the Rangers to have surgery for Thoracic Outlet Syndrome wiping out the rest of his season. Harrison is healthy and has more experience than Derek Holland; with a good spring he can make the rotation.
Derek Holland has the most raw ability of any of the contenders for the Rangers rotation, but his up and down season last year places many question marks on the young lefty.
Holland is the preferred choice by the Rangers because of his superior stuff and the courage he shows on the mound, but to make the rotation he will have to show he can adjust to the big league level. He may have the inside track to the fifth spot, but he'll have to earn it just like everyone else.
Prediction: Holland wins the fifth spot, Harrison and McCarthy to AAA Oklahoma.
Can the Rangers Offense Rebound?
In a cruel twist filled with irony, the Rangers missed the playoffs last season because the offense fell flat on its face. In early June the Rangers held a 4.5 game lead in the West and then the bats went silent.
By the time the dust settled the Rangers barely held off the surging Seattle Mariners for second place finishing 10 games behind the division champion Angels.
For the Rangers offense to get back on track new hitting coach Clint Hurdle has to help Josh Hamilton, Ian Kinsler and Chris Davis return to their 2008 form or the Rangers will struggle again in 2010.
Josh Hamilton tweaked his swing going into Spring Training last season, found his old swing to be better and tried to change back the final week leading up to the season. When he struggled out of the gate, Hamilton panicked and began swinging at everything thrown at him.
The result was a large drop in both average and power which obliterated the heart of the Rangers order. It didn't help that medication for Attention Deficit Disorder robbed him of his appetite causing a drop of 20 pounds and a very fragile body. Not a great combination for an aggressive outfielder who collides with the outfield wall on a regular basis.
All reports out of Arlington suggest Hamilton is back in his 2008 form. His batting practice has returned to its legendary status and he's regained the weight lost last year. The Rangers are hopeful everything will fall into place with Hamilton this season. Having Vladimir Guerrero hitting behind him probably won't hurt either.
Ian Kinsler has always been known as a fly ball hitter, but his 2009 performance was beyond ridiculous. His batting average and slugging percentage dropped from .319 and .517 in 2008 to an anemic .253 and .327 in 2009.
An abundance of pop-ups and shallow line drives replaced doubles to the gaps and towering home runs, something Clint Hurdle is trying to bring back to Kinsler's game citing his quick hands and ability to drive inside pitches to the right field gap.
Hitting in the fifth spot behind Guerrero should take some of the pressure off Kinsler, allowing him to focus on driving the ball instead of setting up the heart of the order for a big inning. The move will also help the Rangers use his power more effectively.
Chris Davis had a terrible spring and an even worse beginning to the 2009 season thanks in large part to starting his cage work later in the offseason. Davis couldn't catch up to the fastball and was vulnerable to breaking pitches prompting a demotion to AAA mid-season.
He regained his stroke at Oklahoma City prior to his recall late in the season and was a completely different hitter. Davis to his credit has recognized what caused his problems and only took a small amount of time off after the season before resuming his cage work this offseason. With Justin Smoak on his heels, Davis cannot afford another slow start to the season or the Rangers will replace him in the lineup once Smoak is ready.
If Hamilton, Kinsler and Davis all return to 2008 form the Rangers offense will be back in business in 2010. If not, a division championship will fall between their fingers yet again because of a lack of offense.
Something unheard of in Arlington until last season.

My only complaint has been tires, the scorpion AT was my least favorite-go figure. I got crap mileage out of them, I like the ST much better as a road tire.

thanks for the input, I'll try it out today and take it for a spin in the mud to see how well it holds up... I have heard lots of complaints about the scorpion A/T's but am going strong on my second set with great on road and reasonable off road traction. Granted personal opinions differ and no tire on the market is a true D/S where traction is great both on and off road... However on a different note I would not put the pipe on if I started over again. The gain in HP is not worth the money, noise or hassle of tinkering with the jets over elevation changes. Furthermore, first gear is not as low as before. I live at 8,000 ft and ride anywhere between 4,500 and 12,000. Can you say hassle?

April 22, 2014 — Today's guest on "Federal Tech Talk" , is Ojas Rege, vice president of Strategy for MobileIron. Rege has a Master's degree from MIT and a M.B.A. from Stanford and has spent the past six years working at MobileIron.
Many federal information technology professionals are looking for solutions in handling mobile devices as well as handling the data on mobile devices. MobileIron offers cloud-based and premise-based solutions to solving this management concern. During the interview, Rege talks about the similarities faced by commercial organizations to those encountered by the federal government.
In a recent study by the Ponemon Institute, they found that 50 percent of for-profit organizations had no mobile strategy at all! So, if you are confused about what to do, you are not alone.
Another interesting aspect of the interview were the priorities that were revealed in the Ponemon study. The highest-rated capability for managing mobile devices was agility, not collaboration or security.
Listen to the interview to see how "agility is the new security" in the world of managing mobile devices.
How the US Mint and NIST are perfecting the money-making process.

NOTE: This is a guest post from Lee Crockett, Director of Federal Fisheries Policy at the Pew Environment Group
This post is part of Pew's Overfishing 101 series. Previous posts can be viewed here.
Almost everyone has a friend or a relative who loves to tell the tale of the "big one" that got away. And more often than not, that fish grows larger and larger with every telling of the story. I have to admit, as an avid angler, I may have been tempted to do this a time or two. But not all fish stories are tall tales.
The accounts that older fishermen relate can be filled with valuable information for today's anglers, scientists and managers. Indeed, these so-called "old salts" have decades of experience on the water and vivid memories of the way things used to be, and how different they are today. They are witnesses to a time when people fished without the help of GPS or fish finders, and when species that are now rare were teeming in our coastal waters.
It's often been said that a picture is worth a thousand words, and the Pew Environment Group recently put together a short video featuring the wisdom of these old timers—including historian and former cod fisherman from Stonington, Maine Ted Ames (winner of a MacArthur Foundation Fellowship), as well as Mike Anderson and Fred Bennett, both retired fishermen from Chatham on Cape Cod, Massachusetts.
Recently, nature writer and reporter John Nielsen visited several of these old salts, who made their living fishing for cod in the waters off New England. They told him stories of the heyday of cod, when docks were "madhouses" and fishermen formed the "million-pounds-a-month club."
They also recalled the crash of the fishery in the early 1990s, when larger and more powerful fleets pushed cod populations to collapse. They share in the optimism of younger fishermen today, who are heartened by glimpses of a recovery, but remind us that though some populations of cod appear to be on the rise, they remain a shadow of their former selves.
Protecting cod's breeding grounds, adhering to science-based catch limits, experimenting with selective fishing gear technologies and finding innovative ways for fishermen to increase the value of their catch through direct marketing are just a few ways we can act today to help restore this once abundant resource.

"WE can fix this fishery"! "WE can..."? No we can't. The FISH can. WE can stop being greedy gutses and leave them alone so they can get on with it.
Will humans ever learn. How very sad.
This is a terrible thing. I hope the Cod can increase in population and that people will allow them to do so.
The tragedy of the commons--not only wild game animals including fish and wild harvested herbs, but all of the commons including clean air and clean water--pure laissez faire free market economies destroy the commons--everybody grabs theirs before somebody else beats them to it--thus, the commons is all gobbled up in a short length of time.
I don't believe that people are unaware when their behaviour is all about greed. When it comes to big business, most don't act ethically anyway. That's why so much deadly food is forced upon us after Americans being brain-washed from an early age.
What I can't understand is that a fair number of people are educated to question the behaviour of corporations - then why are there such a large percentage of unconsious people, with unconscious behaviour?
sad isnt it that man keeps making the same mistakes over and over again.
They should pass laws about limiting fishing NOW! Thanks Alicia
@Graham H.
I agree completely with the points you made; as long as big money is attached to fish - or anything else for that matter, be it coal,oil or wood - there will be little consideration given to conservation and sustainability. Profit is all that matters. But please don't forget that it is not just humans that rely on the abundance of fish. Sea mammals, birds and other fish, too, depend on them. Another unfortunate thing about industrial-scale fishing is that any other fish-eater is seen as a competitor and is killed or seen as vermin, when in fact it is only living as it has always done. I think if we returned to more natural ways of fishing like you suggest, then there would be enough to go around for human and non-human. It would also, I would hope, to give people more appreciation of fish as a wonderfully amazing lifeform, not just simply a food source or commodity.

Amlin Challenge Cup match preview: Bordeaux-Begles v Gloucester
Last Updated: 12/01/13 1:51pm
Nigel Davies: Has set his sights on the Amlin Challenge Cup quarter-final
Gloucester will look to secure their place in the quarter-finals of the Amlin Challenge Cup when they tackle Bordeaux-Begles on Friday.
Gloucester toppled the Top 14 outfit 25-13 at Kingsholm but director of rugby Nigel Davies is taking nothing for granted.
He has made seven changes to his line-up, with Jonny May, Henry Trinder, Tim Molenaar, Dan Robson, Darren Dawidiuk, Dario Chistolini and skipper Jim Hamilton all starting.
Bordeaux have lost six successive games in the Amlin Challenge Cup encounters - with defeat on Friday breaking the record for the worst losing streak in the tournament.
Bordeaux have made wholesale changes for the match with only Rafael Carballo retaining his place after the 26-16 loss to Perpignan last time out.
Hugh Chalmers, Felix Le Bourhis and Louis Madaule all drop to the bench - while Lachie Munro, Damien Larrieu and Rohan Kitshoff among those coming into the starting XV.
Bordeaux-Begles: 15 Lachie Munro, 14 Rafael Carballo, 13 Charles Brousse, 12 Michel Denetre, 11 Thierry Brana, 10 Camille Lopez, 9 Julien Seron, 8 Damien Larrieu, 7 Rohan Kitshoff, 6 Gauthier Gibouin, 5 François Tisseau, 4 Andrew Chauveau, 3 Tamato Leupolu, 2 Hikairo Forbes, 1 Jefferson Poirot.
Replacements: 16 Fabien Rofes, 17 Franck Labbe, 18 Nicolas Descamps, 19 Carolis Navickas, 20 Hugh Chalmers, 21 Felix Le Bourhis, 22 Baptiste Serin, 23 Louis Madaule.
Gloucester: 15 Rob Cook, 14 Charlie Sharples, 13 Henry Trinder, 12 Tim Molenaar, 11 Jonny May, 10 Freddie Burns, 9 Dan Robson, 8 Ben Morgan, 7 Akapusi Qera, 6 Sione Kalamafoni, 5 Will James, 4 Jim Hamilton (capt), 3 Dario Chistolini, 2 Darren Dawidiuk, 1 Nick Wood.
Replacements: 16 Huia Edmonds, 17 Dan Murphy, 18 Shaun Knight, 19 Peter Buxton, 20 Gareth Evans, 21 Dave Lewis, 22 Mike Tindall, 23 Martyn Thomas.
What they said...
Gloucester director of rugby Nigel Davies
"Europe is a difficult arena, whether you're in the Amlin Challenge Cup or the Heineken Cup. I always stressed how important the middle two games against London Irish would be, and we came out on the right side of those two games.
"Now we have to hammer home our momentum in this tournament, and we have to go to Bordeaux and get a result. It's as simple as that.
"I think we've got a very good team, an exciting team. And we're expecting to perform."

Spring arrived!Finally spring arrived in Holland too!Beautiful flowers are coming up and the tulip fields are growing really fast. Hope to find some time next week to photograph some of the tulip fields. Also got a lot of new and fresh ideas so you will be spammed soon again. I've been a little inactive lately because I don't have much time at the moment, my internship takes a lot of time, have to work in the weekends and have been doing a lot of fotoshoots with horses and their owners. Also my own horse needs her attention. But now a new fresh start!Also my premiumship expired this week. A big shame. So if anyone is willing to donate some points for a premiumship I will love you forever! Haha. Thank you in advance!

The Acratech GP-s Ballhead with Lever Clamp is an updated version of the existing GP-s head. Rather than a rubber knob, this model features a locking lever for securing the Arca Swiss-style clamp that constitutes the quick-release element.
Featuring first-class construction, the GP-s Ballhead also functions as a gimbal head for lenses up to 400mm f/4.0, and it can be positioned upside-down to function as a leveling base for panoramic photography. Even if you're operating on rocky or otherwise uneven terrain, you can pan absolutely parallel to the horizon, so you won't need to carry a separate leveling base to create accurate stitched panoramic imagery.
With all that functionality, the GP-s Ball head is designed with a small base diameter of 2.08" to allow it to be used with travel-type tripods whose legs fold up 180°, reaching to the top of the tripod head. The smaller base diameter allows the tripod legs to fold more compactly.
The ballhead also features a bull's-eye level on the quick-release clamp and a detent pin, which prevents the plate and anything attached to it from sliding out of the quick-release clamp when it's partially loosened. Lightweight at only 0.9 lb, the GP-s Ballhead supports loads over 25 lb from any position, including tilted 90° and mounted upside-down.
- Fits all standard tripods (1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threads)
- Easily holds over 25 lb (11.4 kg) at any angle
- Works as a gimbal head with lenses up to 400mm f/4.0
- Weighs 0.9 lb with quick-release clamp
- Reduced base diameter of 2.4"
- Dual laser-engraved calibrated panning scales
- Full movements in any camera position
- Precision machined aluminum
- Compatible with Kirk, Arca Swiss, Acratech, R.R.S., and many other quick-release plates
- Beautiful satin black-anodized finish
- Long-lasting stainless-steel hardware
- All knobs are secured so they cannot vibrate loose and fall off
- Built-in safety detent pin
- Oilless and greaseless ball will not attract or hold dirt and debris
- Made in the USA

Killing cancer without punishing the patient?
June 2, 2012
By Andrew Pollack, New York Times
Fern Saitowitz's advanced breast cancer was controlled for about a year by the drug Herceptin and a toxic chemotherapy agent. But her hair fell out, her fingernails turned black and she was constantly fatigued.
She switched to an experimental treatment, which also consisted of Herceptin and a chemotherapy agent. Only this time, the two drugs were attached to each other, keeping the toxic agent inactive until the Herceptin carried it to the tumor. Side effects, other than temporary nausea and some muscle cramps, vanished.

Megan MacKenzie to Receive Wilmot Cancer Center Inspiration Award
April 26, 2012
By University of Rochester Medical Center Newsroom
Cancer survivor has raised more than $100,000 to fund care and research at Wilmot
An engaging and energetic cancer survivor, McKenzie was diagnosed with stage IV breast cancer in 2007. In a case of the worst possible timing, Megan received her cancer diagnosis the day of her mother's funeral. Almost unbelievably, her father was diagnosed with esophageal cancer just five days later.
