April 2008
January 2013.
After discovering the location for some new trails / pumptrack, I started the original Digmore BlogSpot back in Spring 2008 purely to act as some kind of diary of the activities at the spot that would become known as the pumptrack or pumpy. Digmore the blog just hung off the back of the spot. As the pumptrack, trails and most importantly, the scene developed and solidified there must have been an undefinable point Digmore became more than a blog or a spot, but a name that became a moniker for a close knit group of friends that were involved in a larger trails scene.
There came the almost inevitable point when the 'originals', the guys who had practically lived at the trails for 2 – 3 years had started to move away or had started having kids, the Pumptrack was becoming harder to manage and keep in order or whatever the reason was we threw one last massive 'Goodbye the Pumpy' bonfire party, picked up the shovels and abandoned the spot.
The guys remaining in Bristol, myself included, started chipping in at Vinewood, it was around that time, possibly slightly earlier, we amalgamated the two blogs, Digmore and Dig for Victory under the title of Digmore For Victory. Clever huh? Maybe it was a subliminal tactic to extend the life or at least breath some life back into the dwindling Digmore site but the continuing contributions really kept alive a blog that would have run out of steam a long time ago.
But alas, the time to travel up to Vinewood to help out and the increasing pressures on my time (that getting into my late 20's has inexorably brought) seemed to always be prohibitive against getting really stuck into helping out at Vinewood. Possibly I had been spoilt by having the Pumptrack on my doorstep, but the motivation had dropped off and I began digging less and less. Briefly revived by the new efforts started to get old pumptrack up and running again, I just couldn't get myself excited by digging or BMX in general. Maybe the Pumptrack has too many memories or ghosts for me to be able to commit to digging down there again, maybe it just didn't feel right, I never could put my finger on it. The love had gone, I suppose.
However by the end of 2012, for me, things have turned a corner again. Work has allowed us to dig trails on some scrap land round the back of the warehouse and the creative juices are flowing again, creating a spot on a blank canvas I am getting falling back in love with it all over again.
And so to the crux of this post, the Digmore Blog.
After numerous discussions with the 'original' Digmore crew, the decision has been reached to bring an end to posting on the Digmore4victory. I know on the face of it this decision maybe seem somewhat petty or bitter but I can ensure it isn't.
It is to do with preserving a unique name against a unique period of time. A period of time during which I was actually aware I was enjoying what may prove to be among some of the happiest times in my life.
I hold nothing against anyone who is or has EVER been involved in Digmore or the pumptrack because each and every person in some way left their mark upon the legacy of Digmore and in turn Digmore left it's mark upon them. I have met the closets friends through Digmore. I owe my job to Digmore. I have enjoyed so many good times, trips and experiences because of Digmore, anyone who was at the pumptrack during that 2 -3 year period will know what I am talking about.
History is littered with examples of great things, ideas and projects taken to far, pushed in directions never intended and the result is always negative.
I want to draw a line in the sand after Digmore now with new beginnings for us all. See you at the jumps.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you all.
Digmore Forever.

Great product great buy. So happy I chose these over weather techs. They fit and look great! I own a set of maxliners and weather techs and can't justify the extra money paid for weather tech mats.

Krzyzewski soundbites from his arrival at RDU
Duke basketball head coach Mike Krzyzewski arrived at Raleigh/Durham International Airport yesterday after leading the USA men's basketball team to a gold medal in 2012 Olympic Games in London.
With his second consecutive Olympic gold medal, also winning as the head coach in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, Krzyzewski spoke to the media at the airport, in addition to Blue Devil divers Nick McCrory and Abby Johnston, who separately earned medals in synchronized diving at the games.
Here are some highlights from Krzyzewski's press conferences, courtesy of The Chronicle's sports photography editor Elysia Su, whose photos from the event can be viewed in our post from earlier today.
On his reaction to winning, whether it was more excitement or relief:
"It's more excitement, in the last couple minutes, I don't think my reactions on the sidelines were out of relief. It was like, 'Whoa, this is unbelievable.'"
On Duke basketball assistant coaches Chris Collins and Steve Wojciechowski's importance to the success of the team as assistants in London:
"Having these guys is one of the changes we made in USA basketball. There was one practice—you have to be credentialed to get in—and most of the places we practiced you didn't have to be credentialed. We had one practice and it's Nate [McMillan, myself, Jim [Boeheim] and Mike [D'Antoni]. It was not good. We all had great ideas. It was like a bunch of old professors and we said do it, but it's better to actually have someone else do it. So we're trying to run the drills and the players are laughing. Chris Paul and LeBron pushed us out of the way and said 'We know the drills. We'll run them.'"
On the teamwork of the players on Team USA:
"Everybody worked as a team—the cooperation of our players was unbelievable. We were the most athletic [team], but the most together one, really. Our guys really got along."
"It's such an honor to win this thing and the way they won it makes it even better."
"No country has ever won the Olympics, the world championships, then the Olympics three-in-a-row, so we're all very proud of that."
"We had five players who averaged double figures. [Kevin] Durant was the leading scorer, [Kevin] Love was the leading rebounder, actually LeBron [James] led us in assists and Chris Paul led us in steals. It was a team that did what it really needed to do to make it work. We looked real small out there at time—talented, don't get me wrong."
On the style of play, defenses and rebounding in international basketball:
"I wonder how many teams put a box-in-one on a team LeBron was on and he wasn't the one, or Kobe [Bryant] wasn't the one or Carmelo [Anthony] wasn't the one."
"We averaged 37 threes a game and made about 16 of them, and that was a key part. And I didn't know this going in if we would be a good rebounding team and we ended up being a great rebounding team, averaging about 15 offensive boards per game. I think a large part of that is the long rebounds."
On the unselfish nature of the players and Kobe Bryant's 20-point second half against Australia to propel Team USA to the semifinals:
"One of the cool things about that game was Kobe was struggling a little bit and as soon as he hit that first shot—the whole bench, and these are guys who are so unselfish, said 'shoot it'—then we got a steal and it was a 3-on-1 and he was about 25 feet away. 'Shoot it!" And then he had about four threes in about 66 seconds."
"They felt every shot their teammate shot was theirs."
On repeatedly stating that this Olympics will be his last as the head coach of Team USA:
"I'm really sure. This is a huge a commitment. I thank Duke university, Dr. Brodhead, Kevin White, Joe Alleva before him for allowing me the opportunity to do this…. It's time to pass the baton without letting it drop."
On McCrory and Johnston's success at the games and their commitment:
"The commitment an individual athlete has to make is outstanding. I've known Nick for a few years and Abby we've talked around the world championships a couple years ago and we're following them during the Olympics. We can make a mistake, have a turnover and make up for it. When Abby and Nick are on their last dive and they have to hit it, they have to hit it. I can't even imagine that pressure and for them to respond in the manner in which they did. It's a lot better than what we did.
As a coach, Lebron and Kobe and those guys are doing it for me. Those two youngsters are doing it on their own against the world."
Check The Blue Zone tomorrow for quotes from McCrory and Johnston, who also spoke to the press.

Four months earlier, the latest crisis in the troubled region began when Israeli, British, and French forces invaded Egypt and occupied the Suez Canal Zone in retaliation for Egyptian leader Gamal Abdel Nasser's nationalization of the waterway. The United Nations, the U.S., and the U.S.S.R. all expressed outrage at the hostilities, and Britain, France, and Israel agreed to withdraw from the Suez as a U.N. emergency force was sent to the area. Although the superpowers presented a facade of unity during the Suez Canal Crisis, both were primarily motivated by their ambition to gain influence with Arab states in the Middle East.

Newsmakers: Campbell leads Rockets to Top 25 rankingWritten by Nate Pentecost | | email@example.com
Often when a college football coach leaves for greener pastures, his former team is forced to recover and rebuild in the wake of his departure. But since Tim Beckman bolted for the University of Illinois following the 2011 regular season, head coach Matt Campbell has kept the University of Toledo on track.
Appointed interim head coach for the 2011 Military Bowl, Campbell, the Rockets offensive coordinator from 2009-11 under Beckman, led the midnight blue and gold to an exhilarating 42-41 win over Air Force.
UT Athletic Director Mike O'Brien conducted a national coaching search following the bowl victory, but soon determined that the best man for the job had been in Toledo all along. Campbell, 33, became the youngest coach in the NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision.
While Campbell was the players' choice to fill the position, his youth and supposed inexperience resulted in national criticism of Toledo's hire. Such pessimism reached Campbell's ear, but did not deter him.
"I don't know if I ever worried about what some of the pundits out there were saying," Campbell said. "The biggest thing for me was getting the job and bringing our program together. In previous years our offense and defense were their own entity and it wasn't a unified team. From our players to our coaching staff, I challenged the leaders to buy into the value of a team as one unit with one goal."
The change in philosophy paid dividends for the Rockets almost immediately. After a season-opening overtime loss at Arizona, UT racked up eight straight victories, including a 27-15 win over arch rival Bowling Green State University on Sept. 15 and an upset of then-unbeaten No. 21 Cincinnati at the Glass Bowl on Oct. 20.
"In the Arizona game, the right attitude and effort were there but we weren't as consistent with the details of the game," Campbell said. "The players buying into being consistent in all three phases of the game was the key [to the win streak].
Campbell stressed early on that the team's goal was to win the Mid-American Conference, an achievement that has eluded the Rockets since 2004. In pursuit of that goal the Rockets earned something else they had not in over a decade — a spot in the Top 25.
In a strange turn of events, the Rockets entered the rankings for the first time since 2001 on a bye week after a win at Buffalo. Losses by No. 24 Oklahoma State and the No. 22 Wildcats squad who bested them in the season opener allowed UT to claim the 25th spot in the Nov. 4 Bowl Championship Series rankings.
But the Tuesday after making its way into the Top 25, Toledo played its way out of the rankings in a nationally televised loss to Ball State. The following week, Northern Illinois topped the Rockets 31-24 to clinch the MAC West division and eliminate Toledo from MAC title contention.
Some attributed the losses to the Rockets players letting their guard down upon entering the Top 25, but the battle-tested team suffered injuries to key players, including defensive tackle Danny Farr and All-MAC defensive end T.J. Fatinikun. Quarterback Terrance Owens dealt with a nagging foot injury most of the season and 1,000-yard rusher David Fluellen went down with an ankle injury in the second half against Northern Illinois.
"By the time we got to November, we had a tired team who played a lot of close games and dealt with some tough injuries," Campbell said. "Our job as a coaching staff is to build depth. We are building that depth here and I think we were fortunate we got to play a lot of young guys in some critical situations."
The Rockets hung tough with No. 22 Utah State for much of the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl on Dec. 15 before Aggies running back Kerwynn Williams rushed for more than 190 yards with three scores in the fourth quarter to doom Toledo to a 41-15 defeat. UT finished the year with a 9-4 mark (6-2 in the MAC) as Campbell fronted the program's first nine-win campaign since 2005.
A program's depth and continued success is ensured through the recruiting process and Campbell is widely considered to be among the best recruiters in the country, hauling in some of the top classes in the MAC during his time at Toledo. The 2013 class is no exception. According to the Rivals.com recruiting service, the Rockets have the conference's best recruits for the fourth consecutive year.
"I believe that we are on the brink of a higher level of college football and it starts with us making sure that we look at who we are and what our program goals are," Campbell said. "Priority No. 1 is win a MAC championship. No. 2 is continuing to build this program and take it to the Top 25 level consistently. We are really close to doing that and becoming one of the really special places in college football." O

So far, tier 13 armor design has been less about the instance and the game itself and more about the free-form ideas that the class and armor designers want to play with. Artists are having a good time coming up with all sorts of crazy ideas without having to necessarily be set in any motif. I think it's a great exercise and is providing some of the coolest, potentially most iconic armor sets to date.
Check out images from the priest tier gear retrospective in our gallery.
Vestments of Dying Light
Priests (and paladins for that matter) are often the most challenging classes to design 'badass' armor sets for, in contrast to the death knight and warlock, whose underlying concepts demand the unquestionably cool dark and sinister approach.
In this instance, however, the design asked for a bold, two-tone, 'Venetian carnival style with creepy, soulless black eyes,' which gave me a powerful, potentially edgy direction to explore. The set's 'Dying Light' theme was visualized as a spiked, setting sun motif.
Brace yourselves for what could be some of most exciting updates to the game recently with patch 4.3. Review the official patch notes, and then dig into what's ahead: new item storage options, cross-realm raiding, cosmetic armor skinning and your chance to battle the mighty Deathwing -- from astride his back!

This hotel has undergone significant renovations since our visit.
We will update our photos and review as soon as we can.
Photos and Review by Oyster.com Investigators
Elegant, centrally located hotel with spacious lobby and cocktail bar
The Westin Philadelphia is an elegant, centrally located hotel that provides ample space for guests to relax. The lobby is full of soft tones, crown moldings, crystal chandeliers, and marble floors. A baby grand piano and cocktail bar complete the welcoming lobby. Beyond this bar and one on-site restaurant, there isn't much of a scene at this hotel. But the central location means guests will be within easy walking distance of the best Philadelphia shopping, dining, and nightlife.
Attached to the Shops at Liberty Place and a short walk to Rittenhouse Square
The Westin Philadelphia has a central downtown location attached to the Shops at Liberty Place, and is just a few minutes walk to City Hall and Rittenhouse Square. The area boasts a wide range of dining, shopping, and nightlife options.
Center City is Philadelphia's commercial and cultural center, and the vast majority of the city's hotels are clustered in this neighborhood. Popular historical sites, including Independence Hall, are located here, as is the Philadelphia Museum of Art (fronted by the stone steps made famous in the Rocky films). The picturesque Rittenhouse Square Park, located in the southwest area of the neighborhood, is surrounded by some of the city's best restaurants and bars. The ornate City Hall, built in 1901, is the second tallest masonry building in the world; its tower is a prominent fixture of the Philadelphia skyline.
Stylish rooms with Heavenly Beds and Starbucks coffee
The 294 rooms and 19 suites offer standard Westin style with signature Heavenly Beds and Heavenly Bath products. City views are excellent and marble bathrooms include chrome dual showerheads. Room perks include fluffy bathrobes and coffeemakers with Starbucks coffee. One notable feature is the fact that the desk and chair face the room rather than the wall.
Lovely lobby and event space, but lacking amenities of similar nearby hotels
The Westin Philadelphia is appealing for its central downtown location and elegant lobby, but it lacks the amenities of similar downtown hotels. While the hotel does offer a small and cramped fitness center, it does not offer a pool or spa. There is a business center and free newspapers can be found in the lobby.
Winthorpe & Valentine restaurant, plus a lobby lounge
The lobby lounge serves drinks and light fare in the evenings, though opening times vary. The one full-service restaurant in the hotel is Winthorpe & Valentine, located off the lobby area. Decor includes dark wood panels and red leather chairs. There is a marble bar for cocktails and the main dining room serves high-end contemporary cuisine. There are also many nearby dining options beyond the hotel in Rittenhouse Square.
The Westin Philadelphia is an elegant hotel with a central location close to Rittenhouse Square, shopping, and dining. The lobby is tucked away on the second floor, giving the hotel a somewhat private feel. Marble floors and crystal chandeliers in the lobby create a lovely space to relax outside of the room. A total of 294 rooms and 19 suites feature trademark Westin Heavenly Beds and Heavenly Bath products, along with flat-screen TVs, fluffy bathrobes, and coffeemakers with Starbucks coffee. Business travelers might appreciate big desks that look into the room, and not against the wall. The hotel has a cramped fitness center, but no pool or spa, and fees for Wi-Fi and parking add up fast.

Paradise Valley dominates field to win men's national title at 2011 Division I Cross Country ChampionshipsNovember 12, 2011
Photos courtesy NMJC PR and Marketing Department
Hobbs, N.M. – The men's 8k race at the 2011 NJCAA Division I Cross Country Championships was dominated by Paradise Valley Community College, Ariz., as four Puma runners finished in the top 12 to win the team championship. The event was hosted by New Mexico Junior College on Saturday, Nov. 12th at Ocotillo Golf Course in Hobbs, N.M., and featured over 750 student-athletes from 72 different NJCAA member colleges.
Jacob Naybr was the first PVCC runner to cross the finish line, taking home fourth place (26:23.35). Alejandro Valencia was seventh (26:56.01), Ryan Norton was next at eighth overall (27:01.94) and Matthew Whitlatch finished 12th (27:09.65). Those four All-American performances, along with Ruganza Mugisha's 26th place finish (27:40.66), gave PVCC just 54 team points to finish 59 points ahead of second place Garden City Community College, Kan. (113). Central Arizona College was third (128), North Iowa Area Community College fourth (200) and Johnson County Community College, Kan. (220), rounded out the top five.
Kemoy Campbell of South Plains College, Texas, won the men's individual title. Campbell took early control of the 8k race and never looked back, cruising to a 38-second victory (25:22.08). He was the runner-up finisher a year ago.
Edward Limo of Colby Community College, Kan., was this year's runner-up finisher (26:00.47) followed by Viktor Slesarenoks of Cloud County Community College, Kan. (26:17.75).
NOTE: *1-5 finishers = First-Team All-Americans; 6-10 = Second-Team All-Americans; 11-15 = Honorable Mention All-Americans

Heat looking at Juwan Howard in attempt to add speed bump
Jul 10, 2010, 4:14 PM EDT
Juwan Howard needs to chill out.
But instead, he could be heating up.
That was a terrible pun. I apologize. It's been a long week.
Yahoo! Sports is reporting that the mega-team Heat could sign the 37-year old big man to play alongside Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, and LeBron James. The Heat badly need a center and Howard could be willing to play for the minimum. Howard played admirably for the Blazers last year when every single center they had went down before they added Marcus Camby, and certainly brings a veteran mindset.
But against players like Dwight Howard, Andrew Bynum, Yao Ming, even Kendrick Perkins, you have to wonder how effective Howard can be at this point. He's still in good shape, but, he's 37. He's pre-dates Disco.
Still, for a team looking to fill 8 roster spots on a limited budget, Howard could be a solid answer. Still needs to chill out, though.
- sportsjunky - Jul 10, 2010 at 6:36 PM
Talk about the realization and desperation the heat now find themselves in with NO big man what so ever; they will be completely dominated on the boards and in the paint. It takes five guys at a minimum to win a championship!!
- HUH? - Jul 11, 2010 at 12:51 AM
Juwan Howard didn't even play center when he was in his prime during his Bullets/Wizards days. How in the world can you even call him a "big man?" He's smaller than Lebron James.
I understand that rumors have flown around that Bosh doesn't want to play center. But that doesn't mean the Heat can put Juwan Howard there.
I don't even get why Bosh would be opposed to playing center. Besides Dwight Howard, Shaq, and Kendrick Perkins… there's nobody Bosh really has to worry about overpowering him. He's got amazing height and increible length in his arms. He can defend pretty much any center in the league.
- hnirobert - Jul 11, 2010 at 8:04 AM
desperation is signing travis outlaw. desperation is throwing money at kyle korver and jj redick. desperation is the cavs looking at josh childress. the heat just need to acquire bigger bodies to take up space and have fouls to give and they'll be fine. other than dwight howard there is NO OTHER DOMINATING CENTER in the league. shaq is old and fat, perkins will be out until decemberish, andrew bynum has one leg and yao ming is coming off a serious injury. stop reading the sports guy.
- hnirobert - Jul 11, 2010 at 8:08 AM
if juwan howard works out, they will more than likely add him to udonis haslem, jamaal magloire and joel anthony, in addition to the two big men they picked up in the 2nd round.
pat riley just pulled off one of the greatest free agency moves in league history and people are still questioning him?

I am sure the Lakers will be delighted if the Heat pretend Howard is a center and settle for him. I would be delighted. Cleveland would be delighted. LeBron's ex-boss would be delighted, since then there would be a chance that Cleveland might actually win the NBA before Miami.

Justin Bieber Says He Talks To God
Just days after debuting his new Jesus tattoo, Justin Bieber is opening up about his views on God and religion in the new issue of V magazine. "A lot of people who are religious, I think they get lost. They go to church just to go to church. I'm not trying to disrespect them, but for me, I focus more on praying and talking to him," the cover boy explains in the issue, according to the Winnipeg Free Press. "I don't have to go to church."
The singer's strong religious beliefs have always been a part of his public persona. At the 2011 VMAs, when Bieber accepted the Moonman for Best Male Video for "U Smile," he thanked God. "I just want to say thank you so much, not only to God but to Jesus," Bieber said. "Because I wouldn't be here without Him. He's really blessed me. He's put me in this position. So I want to say thank you so much."
The issue hits newsstands on Thursday. Bieber's look was styled by Lady Gaga's stylist and Mugler creative director Nicola Formichetti. The photos were shot by other Gaga associates, fashion photographers Inez and Vinoodh.
In the issue, the singer also talked about his rise to fame, noting that now that he's reached superstardom, haters and critics have been focused on bringing him down. "Now that I'm on top, everyone wants to bring me down. Everyone's trying to tug at me and take my spot," he said. "Like Floyd Mayweather, he's the best boxer in the world. Now he is a champion. Every time he goes to a fight now, people are like, 'He's going to lose this time.' "
As 2012 presses on, Bieber is poised to have another big year, regardless of what the non-Beliebers say. He's currently recording his next album, Believe, set for release later this year.

Paper Currency Is Designed And Printed At Bureau of Engraving and Printing
WASHINGTON – MARCH 26: A smiley face was drawn on a one dollar bill to test the defect procedure at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing on March 26, 2009 in Washington, DC. The roots of The Bureau of Engraving and Printing can be traced back to 1862, when a single room was used in the basement of the main Treasury building before moving to its current location on 14th Street in 1864. The Washington printing facility has been responsible for printing all of the paper Federal Reserve notes up until 1991 when it shared the printing responsibilities with a new western facility that opened in Fort Worth, Texas.

Safeguards supported by international plastic surgeons aim to ensure patients receive safe cosmetic surgery, according to International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.
Because some patients choose to go overseas for surgeries that may be cheaper, plastic surgeons in the US and internationally are also seeing "alarming" rates of patients who experience complications. Due to lax and inconsistent safeguards and guidelines used by some international plastic surgeons, patients do not always receive the care they should when traveling for plastic surgery.
For example, patients from the UK who went abroad for plastic surgery reported a 20% complication rate, according to the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS).
As a remedy to this issue, the president of the ISAPS proposed a checklist to ensure safe cosmetic surgery. This proposed checklist covers four key factors for safe cosmetic surgery as follows:
- The patient should be a good candidate for the requested surgery.
- The surgeon must be properly trained and credentialed.
- The procedure should be appropriate for the patient.
- The surgical facility should be an accredited and proven safe venue with properly trained staff and emergency preparedness.
The World Health Organization also champions patient safety. A safe cosmetic surgery checklist it promoted in 2008, with the support of ISAPS, has shown to greatly improve patient safety when used properly, In fact, under the use of the checklist, patient complications were reduced by more than one third and patient deaths decreased by nearly 50%.
The ISAPS stresses that patients understand that just because a doctor has a medical degree does not mean they are qualified to perform any surgery. In order to undergo a safe cosmetic surgery, patients should ensure that their surgeon is trained and credentialed in the procedure/field and that surgery will be performed in an accredited, safe facility.
The ISAPS says it has seen an increase in patients contacting its offices to verify their surgeon's credentials. This, coupled with appropriate local research, can help patients choose a plastic surgeon who is ideal for performing their safe cosmetic surgery.
To learn more about choosing safe cosmetic surgery options, please join the mailing list of Philadelphia plastic surgeon Dr. Genter.

Hawaii Receives $195,000 from Office of Insular Affairs for Brown Treesnake Control and Research
(WASHINGTON, D.C., February 18, 2005) The State of Hawaii will receive a grant in the amount of $195,000 from the Department of the Interior's Office of Insular Affairs to help protect Hawaii from becoming infested with the brown treesnake, it was announced today. The grant will allow inspections of at least 90% of all high-risk cargo passing through Hawaii's ports of entry, and will provide continued research on interdiction methods and procedures.
"The island governments have been struggling to keep up efforts to prevent the snake from leaving Guam and reaching Saipan or Hawaii," said Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Interior David B. Cohen. "The existing control program, which has been in operation over the past decade, has faced the challenge of keeping up with the demands of increased commercial and military flights. This grant will help to protect Hawaii from the type of ecological devastation that has occurred on Guam."
The grant will be funded through the Office of Insular Affairs Brown Treesnake Control Program, which is designed to help control the brown treesnake population on Guam and prevent its spread to the State of Hawaii, the mainland United States and elsewhere. The brown treesnake was likely introduced to the island of Guam as a passive stowaway in a military cargo ship moving material after World War II. The brown treesnake has no natural predators on Guam, and has completely eliminated the populations of many species of birds and small mammals on

High & Low Seasons
in the Caribbean
Best Bargains and Lowest Prices Are
in Summer & Fall
Here's how the seasons are viewed in the Caribbean.
When it turns cold in North America and Europe, the Caribbean becomes a lot more expensive. Hotel prices double or triple every December 15 and don't come down until April 15 or May 1.
Visitors to the Caribbean are willing to pay premium prices to flee the cold back home.
However, Caribbean weather generally is good year-round. If you are more concerned about spending your funds on activities rather than on hotels, consider the end of April through May, a period of lower rates that typically offers prime conditions with clear skies and plenty of sun.
There's nothing wrong with summer, the low season, either, except it's hotter and the humidity is higher but on many islands the constant trade winds supply a 22 mph breeze. It may also rain more then, too.
Many island resorts close down for part of September and all of October to refurbish and upgrade. Those that stay open then usually offer good bargains.
November through mid-December are excellent times because hurricane season is over, the islands aren't crowded yet and prices are still low. This is also a good period to look for bargain air fares.
On some islands, prices will jump during Thanksgiving week.

Grammar school holds Japan Day
Kimonos, chopsticks and wasabi were all present during Japan Day at Thomas Jefferson Grammar School on Friday.
The fifth grade classes have been studying Feudal Japan as part of their Core Curriculum and celebrated by dressing up and trying new Japanese foods.
"While learning about Japan they have made Japanese gardens, written Haikus and done some Japanese prints," said Georgia Maimone, fifth-grade teacher. "We study Feudal Japan because it is a fascinating time period and they had a distinct culture."
On Friday, students sampled dried fruit, rice crackers, mochi cakes, green tea pound cake and rice. Parents demonstrated how to properly use chopsticks so the students could try their hand at it.
"I've learned that Japan closed their country for a while and the emperor didn't have any power," said student Hannah Shroyer. "Also to be a samurai you have to be born or adopted into a samurai family."
Several of the students purchased kimonos from Casper's Closet, but Palina Schneider wore one that her cousin brought back from Japan.
"I've learned that Japan is an archipelago," Schneider said. "It's thousands of islands that make up the nation."
Maimone said this is the third year the fifth grades have celebrated Japan Day.
"This creates a love of learning," Maimone said.

For Women Who Want The Ballerific Life!
actress, philanthropist, mother and all-around Renaissance woman, Jill Scott gets to the root of our feelings on the matter.
My new friend is handsome, African-American, intelligent and seemingly wealthy. He is an athlete, loves his momma, and is happily married to a White woman. I admit when I saw his wedding ring, I privately hoped. But something in me just knew he didn't marry a sister. Although my guess hit the mark, when my friend told me his wife was indeed Caucasian, I felt my spirit...wince. I didn't immediately understand it. My face read happy for you. My body showed no reaction to my inner pinch, but the sting was there, quiet like a mosquito under a summer dress.
Was I jealous? Did the reality of his relationship somehow diminish his soul's credibility? The answer is not simple. One could easily dispel the wince as racist or separatist, but that's not how I was brought up. I was reared in a Jehovah's Witness household. I was taught that every man should be judged by his deeds and not his color, and I firmly stand where my grandmother left me. African people worldwide are known to be welcoming and open-minded. We share our culture sometimes to our own peril and most of us love the very notion of love. My position is that for women of color, this very common "wince" has solely to do with the African story in America.
When our people were enslaved, "Massa" placed his Caucasian woman on a pedestal. She was spoiled, revered and angelic, while the Black slave woman was overworked, beaten, raped and farmed out like cattle to be mated. She was nothing and neither was our Black man. As slavery died for the greater good of America, and the movement for equality sputtered to life, the White woman was on the cover of every American magazine. She was the dazzling jewel on every movie screen, the glory of every commercial and television show. She was unequivocally the standard of beauty for this country, firmly unattainable to anyone not of her race. We daughters of the dust were seen as ugly, nappy mammies, good for day work and unwanted children, while our men were thought to be thieving, sex-hungry animals with limited brain capacity.
We reflect on this awful past and recall that if a Black man even looked at a White woman, he would have been lynched, beaten, jailed or shot to death. In the midst of this, Black women and Black men struggled together, mourned together, starved together, braved the hoses and vicious police dogs and died untimely on southern back roads together. These harsh truths lead to what we really feel when we see a seemingly together brother with a Caucasian woman and their children. That feeling is betrayed. While we exert efforts to raise our sons and daughters to appreciate themselves and respect others, most of us end up doing this important work alone, with no fathers or like representatives, limited financial support (often court-enforced) and, on top of everything else, an empty bed. It's frustrating and it hurts!
Our minds do understand that people of all races find genuine love in many places. We dig that the world is full of amazing options. But underneath, there is a bite, no matter the ointment, that has yet to stop burning. Some may find these thoughts to be hurtful. That is not my intent. I'm just sayin'.

I am not trying to disregard her feelings but;when I see a black man with a white women, I DON'T CARE! I can no longer make this an issue for me. I have enough baggage. Ppl act like black men dating white women created the h*** in the ozone layer.
Tell me, why does it hurts when the black man is wealthy?
I agree 100%.
Who cares! I don't wince or feel it deep down in my soul, lol.
Tab said:I am not trying to disregard her feelings but;when I see a black man with a white women, I DON'T CARE! I can no longer make this an issue for me. I have enough baggage. Ppl act like black men dating white women created the h*** in the ozone layer.

But why walk around with a chip on your shoulder, about something that doesn't concern you? (not you JM) She is in the industry and if her soul burns everytime she see a black man with a white woman, then she should be burnt to a crisp by now. Holding this type of feeling, makes one bitter. BTW...It's really the weathly black men with white women that burns her soul, she said it. If he isnt checking for me and I'm not checking for him, why set my soul on fire?? That's why there are so many ABW, they walk around with this going on inside them. And the majority of them don't see a white face through out their daily routine, but they are still holding on to the negative energy. Enough with this already, it's not gonna change. It's like beating a dead horse. Now if a black man takes it upon himself to disrespect black females by comparing us to his white lady, that's when souls should be set on fire. Until then, this white man is gonna pay for my lunch and I'm going home.
Jill needs to stop it, she has issues. She worded it like a song but it still sings issues. This is starting to sound like brothers who don't want to do and always blame the man.
JustMe said:neither do I, but just cause you doesn't mean its okay to discount her feelings...

Amen to Jilly!
Its not a mattering of caring,but instead its something that is sad to see.
Black men have little or no loyalty to their women or children and they should be put on blast!
The way to truely show you don't care is by not supporting them or their BS careers!
Like Wesley Snipes! I haven't seen a movie by him since Money Train! He as said in several interviews that black women are gold diggers!
Yep, and that's why the IRS was deep in yo pockets! Smh
i've said this before, and i'll say it again: public figures don't need to be making these kinds of statments publicly. it's not as if she's standing up for some major cause, this is simply an opinion. jill is an actress and musician who relies on people OF ALL COLORS to support her endeavors...you don't need to be alienating potential money in your pocket/opportunities with statements like this. i'm not asking her to deny her feelings, but the public doesn't need to know this!!!
Ask yourself this, these men that have no loyalty to their black women, do you think they are loyal to their white women? If there is something "messed up" about him for dating outside his race, why would you want him? Again, it's all about the money. Do we care when we see Obobo with Sally? NO! But let it be Kevton King #00 and it's WWIII.

Gold plated Xbox One? It's yours for just AU$11,000
Like the finer things in your gaming life? Well, over in the UK, Harrods has one gold-plated Xbox One for sale.
Missed out on an Xbox One when they initially went on sale? Maybe you should grab the gold-plated one that Harrods has on sale.
Priced at £6000 — roughly AU$10,900 — this is truly a unique item: Harrods confirmed to CNET UK that it has only one of the high-ticket items for sale.
Other than the plating, it's identical to an Xbox in every way, except you've been even more angry when someone scratches it trying to plug in a USB cable.
Looking like a James Bond prop, the Gold Box was spotted by Reddit user SirSyhn. Harrods hasn't given too much information on the device other than the price, so we can't even say if it's 24-carat or some lesser quality.
Either way, we're fairly confident there are better things to do with your money.

If there's one thing we love, it's making Dickie happy.
Jeremy Kingston's Making Dickie Happy made critics very, umm, happy when it opened at the Rosemary Branch pub in 2004. Praised for its wit and ingenuity, it uses a fictional weekend, in a Devon hotel shortly after the end of WWI, as the setting for a meeting of three well-known figures: Lord Mountbatten, Noël Coward and Agatha Christie. Now, brought to the Tristan Bates theatre, and under the same direction of Robert Gillespie, it begins the West End transfer that it had hoped for nine years ago.
Next month's performances at the Tristan Bates Theatre will feature Phineas Pett, James Phelips and Helen Duff in the lead roles. The play examines the personal lives and public faces of this elite trio, taking as fact the speculation that Lord Mountbatten was bisexual. Mountbatten's imminent marriage to Edwina Ashley and his relationship with a close naval chum are quipped at and quibbled about. This play may be about a retreat, but many interesting revelations are brought into light by its sharp candour.
This reboot will also introduce a long-forgotten Noël Coward song, Devon, 95 years since it was first written.
It has a script that transported even a pub's attic to the cocktail party of 1920s Britain's social and literary elite, and a cast that seems to be as well qualified as they are handsome. It doesn't take an Agatha Christie sleuth to work out that this is about to become a West End hit.
Tickets for 'Making Dickie Happy' are available here< / a>.

That is, when they have film inside, of course!
I have three loaders laden with Tri-X, Plus-X and ORT 25. I'm not shooting a big lot these days (school!) and I was wondering if it's worth refrigerating the little guys. The Plus-X I have is the old Plus-X Pan, which I bought at a discount from a store that kept it for years in their fridge.
For now the loaders are sitting at the bottom of my closet in their cardboard box, but I wonder if it is worth putting them in the fridge.

Making 'cents' of education
College of Education helps students prepare for job market
Sarah Poland Collegio Reporter
As one school year ends and the beginning of another approaches, seniors in the College of Education will spend their summer looking for jobs. Although a positive job outlook is expected for the Midwest, a poor economy and budget cuts may affect the job placement of some Pittsburg State University education students.
Jean Dockers, director of teacher education, says more jobs should soon open up for new teachers because of the effects of the recession on current teachers.
"Approximately 20 percent of [currently employed] teachers are past retirement age because they kept teaching during the recession," Dockers said. "They will have to retire at some point, meaning there will be a twenty percent increase in the amount of job openings."
Howard Smith, dean of the College of Education, says that the time line of these openings is not definite. Smith says many school districts are also waiting to see if the economy is going to stabilize before they decide to hire. He says this was apparent in the last teacher interview day because there was a decrease in the number of school districts that came to interview students.
Smith says some districts came even though they weren't planning to hire. Despite the unsure job outlook, Smith says they have not seen a decrease in students entering the PSU College of Education.
To help students prepare to enter the job market, PSU and the College of Education offer a variety of workshops and job fairs. Dockers says a couple of these opportunities include a career fair held every semester and a seminar in resume writing. Students are also encouraged to choose a minor or endorsement.
"Minors are a way to set an applicant apart from the others," Dockers said. "Rural America needs teachers that can do more than one thing."
Adam Brown, senior in elementary education, chose a minor in leadership to complement his degree. Brown says he is also working toward a math endorsement so he would be able to teach middle school as well as elementary. Brown says he thinks it is also important to make connections during school as much as possible.
Smith says there are jobs out there but students who are "place-bound" will most likely have a harder time finding a job. He also says he advises students to consider certain areas of teaching that are in higher demand instead of the areas that are oversupplied.
Although there are job openings in education, Dockers says there are more applicants for each position than there have been in the past. She says students who aren't able to get a job should try to substitute.
"Subbing is a good way to get your foot in the door," Dockers said. "It allows the school district to get to know you."
Although availability of teaching jobs varies in different regions, Dockers and Smith agree that jobs are out there for those who are open to leaving the area.

Having a lazy Saturday today.. Besides a few clients I get to see today, all I really want to do is yoga and paint a picture for my new kitchen. David's parents are in Costa Rica for 2 years so we will be house sitting until they get home! I am already living there and David will move in when we get married. But I keep going back and forth whether I want to spend money on a bunch of decorations or just save our money. I literally have like no decorations.. I remember moving up to college and getting a bunch but I either don't like them anymore or just left them in past apartments.
Back to the painting… So anytime someone asks me, "what do you like to do for fun?" my mind immediately goes blank. 98% of the time I don't have an answer for that question and I am just left asking myself "how lame am I?!?!" no hobbies? Do I seriously have no hobbies? I thought I did… but mostly when I get free time that means I am not running around or working or being busy so I just like to relax or hang out with David or go to the gym! So are my hobbies laying in bed, David, and the gym? Right. (not that that all isn't great, because it is. its the best way to spend free time.) But… I still want a new hobby. So I am starting with painting.So what do you like to do for fun? "I like to paint."That sounds nice.
Lets see how long this lasts…
Oh yeah and that picture was taken by Mark Hedengren a bit ago. We did a yoga and running photoshoot to test out his awesome new camera. All of you yoga experts are probably critiquing my form haha… well let me say that I don't do yoga, not really. Well I am just not good at it. I like to do yoga and stretch at home when I am alone.. (is that weird?) I also like yoga classes.. especially hot yoga but I am always the girl that the instructor is calling out in class telling me to get down lower or something then eventually he comes around to lower an arm or straighten my back because I am kind of helpless when it comes to yoga formation.. so I usually end up doing it at home where I don't need to be corrected
Anyways, have a good Saturday!

Opinion on ESMA's Powers under the Short Selling Regulation -
On 12 September 2013 Advocate-general Jääskinen delivered his opinion in the case of the UK v. the Council of the European Union and European Parliament in which the UK contests the validity of Article 28 of the Short Selling Regulation. Article 28 gives the European Securities and Markets Authority ("ESMA") the power to require disclosure of short positions or to ban short selling of certain financial instruments in emergency situations. The Advocate-general considers that Article 28 should be annulled because Article 114 of the European Treaty is not the correct legal basis for conferring such powers on ESMA. The opinion of an advocate-general is not legally binding on the court. The judges will now consider all of the evidence as well as the opinion before giving judgment.

PORT AU PRINCE, Haiti, April 15, 2009 Eighty-five-year-old Simone Alexis arrived at a medical clinic set up by the crew of USNS Comfort wearing her Sunday best in anticipation of getting new eyeglasses.
Taking her seat alongside other senior citizens and little girls from a local orphanage, Alexis patiently waited for Navy Petty Officer 2nd Class Jonathan Martinez to call her into a tent to administer an eye exam.
With nine years as a Navy ophthalmic technician and a current assignment at the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Md., Martinez has conducted more eye exams than he can count. But rarely, he said, is the need as great -- or the service as welcomed -- as by patients like Alexis receiving medical and dental care during Continuing Promise 2009.
Martinez gave Alexis two sets of glasses, one for reading and one for distance, then held up a chart up for her to read. Alexis erupted into a broad smile and thanked Martinez through an interpreter for his help.
Volunteer interpreters abound here during Continuing Promise, clearly identified by the bright yellow T-shirts they wear both on the USNS Comfort hospital ship and at medical clinics and other operations providing services ashore. But as the Comfort crew and Haitian patients alike are coming to realize, appreciation has a universal language all its own.
It comes in many forms: a shy little smile from a pig-tailed orphan who's had her first dental checkup; the wide-eyed curiosity of a toddler as the pediatric surgeon who operated on him the previous day conducts a post-operative exam; the appreciation expressed by a mother whose child will no longer have to grow up with a deforming cleft palate.
"I hear the words 'God bless you' every day," said Air Force Airman 1st Class Shaquonique Jones, an ophthalmic technician based at MacDill Air Force Base, Fla.
"Being here can be emotionally hard, knowing that we can only do so much for so many," she said. "But we know that we're actually helping people, and it's evident how grateful they are."
Army Spc. John Lewis, a reservist from Camp Robinson, Ark., has seen that gratitude at the Cite Soleil clinic, where he serves as a dental assistant. "Everybody leaves here with a smile, even if they've had [a tooth] extraction," he said. "You just can't not feel good about what you do here."
Air Force Staff Sgt. Shelly Winings, an X-ray technician at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colo., said she's amazed at the outpouring of appreciation she sees among the patients she works with aboard ship and at onshore medical centers.
'They're so grateful, and they tell you 'Merci,'" Winings said. "I thought language barriers would be a problem here, but it's that smile that does it all for you. It says it all, and makes you so grateful to be here."
Martinez agreed that that gratitude is the big reward of the job.
"The best part of it is when all of a sudden, you put glasses on someone and they start looking all over the place with a big smile," he said. "It's really wonderful, and it makes you feel great."
The smiles USNS Comfort is delivering to Haiti are the first during its four-month humanitarian assistance mission.
After leaving here April 19, Comfort and its crew will visit Antigua, Barbuda, Colombia, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Nicaragua and Panama, before returning to the United States.

I can speak volumes about this topic (and perhaps next time we'll be at the same conference, we should), but meanwhile I'll simply say: you were right about what Schwern did (most of it, at least) but he was right about it. The fact that you have an open mind (happy to hear you do!) doesn't mean you don't alienate others or necessarily notice it. My mother tongue isn't English either. Does that mean I don't alienate others, such as women? Hmm... no, it doesn't. I'm sorry this hurt your feelings, but that's simply how the world works sometimes. We don't always notice damage we do, and…

I blame you guys I was just moseying along, not coping with my switch. I came here and decided it was time to knuckle down. I have already picked up a couple of tips that thrill me. Unfortunately, I also picked up a couple of software programs that I should not have. Reminded me of my old Windows days when I would install, play and then fix all the bad things that happened from my playing. Because my style of play is bull in a china shop.
Now I feeling "window-ed" again. I have some ugly things I can't get rid of, and some instability. And fear.
I am going to try to backtrack but it will take a ton of reading to figure it out. One thing for sure, once I get back on track, I will be throwing out the software but keeping my "land of the mac" attitude.

Doug, thanks for the inquiry but don't go there! The only temperature problem was mine when the thing happened and I realised I had not saved my work
I was "geek-ish" with MS but not going there with the Mac. That is supposed to be one of its major strengths. Going to go back to lurk mode and eagerly snap up tips and leave the configuring and tweaking and fun stuff to those with the appropriate skill and knowledge sets.

Phoenix man found guilty in deadly school fight
PHOENIX -- A Phoenix man has been convicted of second-degree murder for running down another parent with his vehicle after an argument at an elementary school.
Maricopa County Superior Court jurors also found 32-year-old Anthony Michael Parrinello guilty of leaving the scene of a fatal accident. school.
Parrinello was arrested in August 2012 after 42-year-old Carmello D'Alessandro was run over on a street about two blocks from Canyon Elementary School in Anthem. He later died at a hospital.
Parrinello and D'Alessandro both had children enrolled at the school.
As the men waited in a parking lot to pick up their children, witnesses said Parrinello argued with D'Alessandro and then challenged him to a fight at a nearby store.
Authorities said Parinello drove around looking for D'Alessando after he didn't show up.

As a potentially profitable opportunity presents itself, John will send you an alert with specific trade information as to what should be bought, when to buy it, and at what price. This is your chance to 'look over' John Thomas' shoulder as he gives you unparalleled insight on major world financial trends BEFORE they happen.
Trade Alert - (BAC)
Sell the Bank of America (BAC) April, 2013 $13-$14 put spread at $0.99 or best
Closing Trade
expiration date: 4-19-2013
Portfolio weighting: 5%
Number of Contracts = 57 contracts
The best execution can be had by placing your bid for the entire spread in the middle market and waiting for the market to come to you. The difference between the bid and the offer on these deep in-the-money spread trades can be enormous. Don't execute the legs individually or you will end up losing much of your profit.
Keep in mind that these are ballpark prices only. Spread pricing can be very volatile on expiration months farther out.
Here are the specific trades you need to execute this position:
Sell 57 April, 2013 (BAC) $14 puts at……………$2.28
Buy to cover Short 57 April, 2013 (BAC) $13 puts at.…….$1.29
Net Proceeds:………………………………...……..…....$0.99
Profit: $0.99 - $0.87 = $0.12

Insulating your home will save cash
Posted: September 13, 2012|
With summer drawing to a close, it will not be long before householders across the UK are turning up the heat to stay warm.
And, with energy prices increasing, now is the time to insulate, according to the National Insulation Association.
The NIA is advising householders to act now to insulate their properties and take advantage of the current grants and subsidies available towards the cost of insulation before the current Carbon Emissions Reduction Target (CERT) scheme ends this December.
Winter fuel bills will soon be arriving and with energy prices increasing it is now more important than ever to insulate and avoid turning up that thermostat. Neil Marshall, chief executive of the NIA, said: "With the cost of fuel bills ever increasing and as much as 60 per cent of a home's heat escaping through uninsulated walls and roofs, householders should take the necessary steps to save energy and money.
"The simplest and most cost-effective method is to insulate the home.
"Cavity wall and loft insulation could save around £310 year on year and both can be installed in less than a day.
"So we urge householders to act now as winter is fast approaching; in many cases the cost of insulating is now free under the CERT scheme which ends this December. Even properties not suitable for cavity wall insulation can still be insulated.
"Solid wall insulation and loft insulation combined can result in even greater savings, at around £635 per year."
The NIA also advises that for peace of mind householders should contact its members for a free quotation and advice on the best type of insulation suitable for the home.
Not only are they qualified installers who are bound by a strict Code of Professional Practice, but they are also able to advise on the range of grants and subsidies available and how to apply.

The Passing of "Newman's Own" Founder, Actor Paul Newman
Paul Newman, actor, and founder of "Newman's Own", has passed away. From a statement from the foundation, included in one of the many obituaries:
"Newman's Own ... What started as something of a joke in the basement of his home, turned into a highly-respected, multi-million dollar a year food company. And true to form, he shared this good fortune by donating all the profits and royalties he earned to thousands of charities around the world, a total which now exceeds $250 million."
Here on SE, a taste test of sandwich cookies, including Newman-O's, was reported yesterday, coincidentally the same day Mr. Newman passed away.

Torche Gets Back Into Its Heavy Groove With Restarter

It may surprise some that there are now two local hip-hop stations when, just a few years ago, there wasn't really even one. With the arrival of Q95 (95.5 FM) and the existence of the Beat, the race for the almighty hip-hop dollar is on.
Seldom do we think about commercial radio around here, because it's usually so uniformly predictable and boring. But something magical's happening right now in the hip-hop world, and it's being reflected on the dial. As a result, the hip-hop stations are shining (if only they'd lay off the "quiet storm" R&B crap).
For a few years there, the Beat had it made. They were manning the engine of a gravy train. With no competitors save sister station Majic 105 (both are owned by the nation's largest radio-station conglomerate, Clear Channel Communications, which recently purchased SFX Corp., owner of this city's biggest music promoter, Contemporary Productions, owner of Riverport Amphitheater and the American Theatre -- you got all that?), the Beat could coast along with virtually no competition -- and did, which was fine because the station was, and still is, a decent reflection of the hip-hop and R&B marketplace. The Beat uses a combination of local and national talent, programming great mix shows that allow the mixologists freedom to go out on a limb and spin the good stuff (especially DJ Needles' phenomenal Saturday-night mix show and DJ Kut's great afternoon vibes) and play some choice music. And until a few months ago, The Beat was the only game in town.
A few years back, though, a company based in Washington, D.C., called Radio One bought 95.5 and moved its antenna to Fairmont, Ill., a choice spot from which to beam the station's signal straight into North St. Louis and North County. After a two-year process, the newly christened Q95 started broadcasting R&B and hip-hop. All of a sudden, there was competition.
Chuck Atkins, The Beat's program director, seems calm about the impending battle: "It's not a surprise; we anticipated that it would happen one day. It looks as if we had the market cornered, but that's not true. It's a free country. You can flip a format at any time, day or night. We have enjoyed competing with ourselves for a number of years, but it's boring doing it like that. It's like when Michael Jackson did Thriller. The only thing you can do now is beat your last project. And that's the way it's been with our ratings and numbers. We've done extremely well, but you don't know how good you are until you have somebody right in your face doing it. It makes you listen to your radio station more; it gets me in to work earlier; I stay later; it charges up the staff. For the most part, my staff's got a spark up their butts. They're ready to rock and roll."
So now there are two. Who cares? It's commercial radio, and these stations go to where the cash flows.
It is interesting, for one simple reason: Clear Channel's a monster corporation, huge and all-consuming; it owns hundreds of stations nationwide. Radio One is, relatively speaking, a tiny company, owning just 13 stations across the country. It is, however, an African-American-owned company, a fact that can't hurt the station when rap and R&B listeners are punching in presets. "Somebody else told me that that would be a huge plus for the St. Louis market," says Q95 program director Mike Fox. "I haven't figured out totally how to market it, because, of course, I don't want to alienate the white and Hispanic listeners. I had the same scenario in Philadelphia, where we had a great percentage of white and Hispanic listeners, and you wonder, if you say that, do they take offense? Some do, some don't, some don't care. It's about being very practical, figuring out ways of saying that in a practical way."
For his part, Atkins is unfazed by the ownership. "The only thing that's important is what's coming out of the speaker. That's the bottom line. The consumer is going to look at that and make an evaluation as to whether it can be their favorite station or not."
Q95 is still in its formative phase; they've yet to begin broadcasting commercials or introduce on-air personalities (and would that they'd never have to!), so it's pretty much a nonstop mix peppered with station IDs and a few teasers. The Beat is running smoothly, ignoring the competition and programming what it always has. ("We don't have a competitor," jabs Atkins, "we have a jukebox over there. We'll have a competitor when they equal the playing field by getting announcers and commercials. That's a real radio station. You can't fight a jukebox -- but even a jukebox gets old after a while, too.") At this early stage, it's nearly impossible to tell any difference between the two stations during regular programming hours; you'll still hear Nelly, Common, Aaliyah and Destiny's Child nearly every hour, on the hour, and in this sense we're hoping to see more adventure, though we're not holding our breath.
