Tregollis school pupils go green
Posted: January 24, 2014|
Tregollis Primary School pupils have gone green with the help of a national energy supplier and a Climate Cops Academy.
More than 60 students, aged eight to eleven, took part in several energy saving activities during a climate change day run by Npower.
Activities included information about saving energy in home and at school and pupils used a thermal imaging camera to see the effects of insulation.
Head Teacher Matt Middlemore said: "The children really enjoyed the day; it taught them about climate change and saving energy in a fun, engaging way.
"They've learnt lots of simple ways to save energy ay school and at home that will make a big difference to the environment."
Tregollis Primary School is just one of four schools in Cornwall to participate in the Climate Cops Academy, which has engaged over 230 pupils throughout the county.
Clare McDougall, head of community and education at Npower, said: "It's wonderful that our Climate Cops programme continues to help schools across the UK to become greener and more sustainable and inspires young people to get involved in energy saving."
Last year saw the Climate Cops programme engage more than 8,000 children, a fraction of the 60,000 students that have attended since its launch in November 2007.
Teachers can visit the Npower website to order their free copy of the Climate Cops resources to help bring their pupils education for sustainable development, science, geography and citizenship lessons for life.

I have added these memorials, mostly from the historic cemeteries of Charleston to memorialize all the individuals who have contributed to Charleston's past.
If I don't respond to a request for transfer it means I prefer to retain the memorial.
In the event a photo of a headstone is not included, it generally means that the memorial information was taken from a cemetery transcription or death record. One of those who did the transcription was Elizabeth C. Curtis. Without her efforts cemeteries such as Trinity United Methodist and Old Third Central Presbyterian Cemetery records would not be included or available since neither of the above church exists today, including the cemetery and headstones. I just found out yesterday January 21, 2010 that internments of Old Third Central Presbyterian Church Cemetery have been moved to Riverview Memorial in Charleston. There are others who did transcriptions, but I am not aware who they are. If someone knows, I would be glad to acknowledge them in this profile.
Some of the headstones at the Circular Church were impossible to read, however the church had previously documented many of the graves sites by plot #'s. In those cases where I could not read the headstone I used the information from the church records found at the Charleston library to identify the headstones. I did list the plots #'s on the majority of the memorials.
A special thanks to the work of Clare Jervey published in 1906 with the transcription of St. Michael's. Her transcription allowed me to include much that was unreadable.

Yes it was open. I added a few of the main inside pics to the main church page. I also added a photo of a sheet printed out inside the church with the parish history.

Marble Cemetery records
Dear John,
Thanks for the rapid response. Our records have been on line since 1999 and the Other Cemetery's since about 2001. The problem is that no one expects them to be! Anne

Once again the two Marble Cemeteries have been confused. Both the New York City Marble Cemetery and the New York Marble Cemetery have very complete websites with their burials on line. Please check them carefully before posting Find A Grave burials to either one. www.nycmc.org and www.marblecemetery.org. Eliza Revere is buried in the New York City Marble Cemetery, not the New York Marble Cemetery. Someone else had already entered her correctly in the NYCMC. Please delete your listing.
Thank you very much for your cooperation - Anne Brown, Trustee, NYMC

Magnolia Cemetry -how to find a grave
my husband and I live in England and currently are researching our rather unusual surname of Titheradge as a one name study. We were rather surprised to find your picture of the grave of Joseph W Titheradge (b 1845 died 7 April 1858 # 65753113) taken in Magnolia cemetery Charleston, as we were unaware any of our ancestors had lived in Charleston. So thank you for the picture, and publishing it on the internet so we can view it.
In just over a weeks time we are visiting the US flying into Washington and driving down to Florida over a 3 week period. By coincidence one of our planned stops is 2 nights in Charleston. Having found your picture and then looked up Magnolia cemetery we have already decided to visit the cemetery because it looks fascinating even without our genealogy connection. I have tried to look on the Internet to see how I can find a map or plan of the cemetery so that we could visit this family grave but without success. Are you able to offer any advice on how we could locate this Titheradge gravestone in this large beautiful cemetery. Thank you for any advice you can offer. kind regards
Ann and Mike Titheradge

Anti-smoking ads get nasty to smash home the message
Posted: January 01, 2013|
DERBYSHIRE people are being told that just 15 cigarettes could prove fatal in a new hard-hitting anti-smoking campaign.
Smokers will be told that three quarters of a packet can cause a mutation that could lead to tumours.
New adverts – featuring a tumour growing on a cigarette as it is smoked – are the first shock adverts since the "fatty cigarette" ad eight years ago.
They aim to encourage people to quit by making the invisible damage visible.
The campaign comes in response to statistics that show more than a third of smokers still think the health risks associated with smoking are greatly exaggerated.
The campaign is supported by charities including Cancer Research UK.
Since the last campaign in 2004, it is estimated that more than 570,000 people have died from smoking related diseases.
David Walker, director for public health for NHS Midlands and East, said: "If you are a smoker, stopping smoking is the single best change you can make to improve your health and the new year is a great time to make positive changes."

Online learning is all the rage nowadays as many students choose to stay at home to study rather than attend a physical school which is a block or two away from their homes. Since anybody can gain access to the Internet anytime of the day and anywhere they may be, online learning is indeed accessible especially for those who do not have the luxury of time to travel and study in a classroom set-up.
Of course, you do not just browse through the World Wide Web clicking on all e-learning sites that you can see because chances are, many of these sites are not that credible.It is important to check the websites very carefully before clicking the link to ensure that you get only the best online learning services. In that regard, here are some of the highly-recommended e-learning sites.

Liverpool U21s battled back from a goal down to clinch a crucial point against Southampton at St Mary's on Monday night.
Alex Inglethorpe's side fell behind when Vegard Forren volleyed past Peter Gulacsi on the half-hour mark.
However, with just over 10 minutes remaining, Krisztian Adorjan ghosted into the penalty area and nodded home a pinpoint Jonjo Shelvey cross to seal a point for the Reds.
Southampton had the ball in the net on 18 minutes. Alberto Seidi's subtle touch guided the ball beyond Gulacsi; however, the offside flag was raised and the strike was ruled-out.
Moments later full-back Calum Chambers rattled the post for the Saints.
Liverpool's first real chance fell to Adam Morgan after Suso's sumptuous pass carved the opposition defence in two. Morgan was onto it in a flash but after speeding clear of his marker, he side-footed wide.
Southampton broke the deadlock in style on 30 minutes. Liverpool failed to clear their lines from a corner and the loose ball bobbled into the path of debutant Forren, who was composed as he volleyed the Saints ahead.
On 41 minutes, Shelvey's shot hit the back of the net but the fourth official deemed Adorjan to have been offside when he nudged the powerful effort beyond Paulo Gazzaniga.
After the interval it was the Saints' turn to have another goal ruled out for offside after substitute Sam McQueen tapped home Jake Sinclair's cross.
Neat link-up play released Wisdom down the right channel and the 19-year-old tucked the ball back inside for Suso, whose low effort was scooped off the line.
Then, on 78 minutes, Adorjan secured a point for the Reds when he lost his marker in the penalty area and nodded Shelvey's cross beyond the 'keeper.
Suso might have clinched a last-minute victory for the visitors when he snaked his way through a packed penalty area but could only fire at the legs of Gazzaniga.
Liverpool team: Gulacsi, Roddan, Wisdom, Sama, Jones, Coady, Morgan (Dunn, 73), Teixeira, Shelvey, Suso, Adorjan.

Do not hesitate to try Pats Pizza, best food! Best service and you will continue to order again!
Posted by Hungry Girl on 04/30/2012
I love pizza, but every time I go to Pat's, I have to order their veggie burger! Best burger and fries in town!
Posted by Josh on 01/30/2011
Pat's Pizza is a great place to eat, possibly the best thin crust pizza in Chicago and I've searched for good thin crust. Great service and friendly atmosphere. They messed up my order once but they were MORE than accommodating, offering a fresh pizza or store credit. Also, always prompt delivery, although they never remember where my door is.
Posted by Megan on 08/24/2008
We have been ordering from Pat's for years. The delivery is always promt or earlier than expected and arrives with a smile. The pizza is always hot, fresh, and delicious when ordering one or 13 as we have for parties. If you like thin crust, this is the place to go.
Posted by k on 08/15/2008
This is the best pizza in chicago hands down!!! It makes me ruin my diet everytime!! The delievery is fast A+++
Posted by J on 06/27/2008
We have pizza's from around the country /the world and Pats just has somehting about it that wins hands down everytime. Had delivers made to downtown hotel where we stayed and the deliveries were hot and on time. Next time we might try and order something along with the pizza's but I dont know :)

Lion Air has initiated talks with Singapore authorities about its interest in setting up an airline in the city-state.
A formal application for an air operator's certificate (AOC), however, has not been filed, says Lion Air president director Rusdi Kirana during an interview with Flightglobal.
If Lion were to receive a Singapore AOC, it would probably set up a full-service carrier, says Kirana.
Lion Air expects passenger numbers to hit 35-40 million next year and hubs are necessary to bring these passengers to destinations beyond Asia-Pacific, says Kirana.
"We're definitely interested in setting up an airline in Singapore, but we don't want to wait too long. We'll be happy if Singapore gives us an AOC," he says.
"Singapore and Indonesia have a good relationship. Singapore is also investing in Indonesia's Mandala, so why not allow other airlines to invest in Singapore? We do not want to take your market, but rather build the Indonesian market."
However, Kirana adds that the carrier is "not desperate", since it will have a hub in Kuala Lumpur next year when Malindo Airways, Lion's joint venture with Malaysia's National Aerospace and Defence Industries, launches. Having more hubs will, however, offer its passengers more options.
He also believes that the low-cost market in Singapore is saturated and that a full-service carrier will "have a better chance".

Vancouver resident Britnee Kellogg continued her quest to become the next "American Idol" on Wednesday.
Kellogg, 28, advanced from the Hollywood group round on the nationally televised Fox network program.
Kellogg was one of four women in a group they dubbed the The Dolly Chicks. Fittingly, they chose the Dixie Chicks' hit "Sin Wagon" to sing before the celebrity judges.
The performance didn't come without a struggle. In a repeat of what happened to Kellogg last year, one member of the Chicks didn't want to rehearse as long as the other three did. "It's frustrating," Kellogg complained, noting that she had to do the choreography and work out the harmonies for the group.
At the end, Kellogg and the woman who was reluctant to rehearse — South Carolina hairdresser Hailey Davis — advanced to the next round. The other two contestants were eliminated.
Kellogg's friend, Aubrey Cleland, 19, of West Linn, Ore., also advanced Wednesday.
The program continues tonight and is seen in this area at 8 p.m. on KPTV-TV, channel 12.

Full-time undergraduate and graduate students are eligible for up to 40 individual counseling sessions in their lifetime as a Hawk. Please note that sessions prior to the 2014-2015 academic year will NOT count toward this session limit nor will group sessions, psychiatric appointments, consultations about another student nor walk-in crisis appointments.
Part-time students are eligible for up to 3 sessions per academic year with a counselor for short-term problem resolution and/or referral.
Employees of Saint Joseph's University are welcome to consult with CAPS staff for referral services.
Appointments are usually necessary and can be scheduled by phone (610-660-1090) or in person (A504 Merion Gardens). If your concern is urgent and you wish to be seen immediately, please inform the administrative assistant when you call so that arrangements can be made to accommodate your needs.
Students with urgent concerns may see one of the professional staff in the Walk-in Center, 54 LaFarge Hall daily from 11:00 AM to 12:30 PM. Appointments are not needed for the Walk-in Center.
In the event of an EMERGENCY after normal working hours, you may call PUBLIC SAFETY AND SECURITY at 610-660-1111 if you are on campus or 911 if you are off-campus.
First-time appointments to CAPS will consist of a brief session with a CAPS psychologist for the purpose of assessing the nature of your concerns and discussing a plan for counseling. If CAPS can best serve your needs, you will be scheduled for a full session with a CAPS psychologist. For the small minority of students whose needs are best served by seeing a mental health professional in the community, CAPS will assist in making the referral.
Full counseling appointments typically last 45 minutes. Due to scheduling demands, latecomers will not be able to be seen for the full 45 minutes. Those students running more than 15 minutes late are advised to call first to make sure that the appointment has not been given to another student. Depending on your and your psychologist's availability, re-scheduling your appointment may be the best option.
For CANCELLATIONS, please notify CAPS as soon as possible, preferably 24 hours in advance. After normal working hours, you may leave your message on voicemail (610-660-1090). Otherwise late cancellations and appointment no-shows will count toward the 40 session limit.

Product description
Music is an essential component of all cultures. It conveys instruction, expresses emotion, and is used for teaching and recreational purposes. Without a doubt, music functioned in these capacities in ancient Israel. Although scholars rarely discuss the role of music in Israel's history and culture, recent studies have demonstrated that understanding Israel's music greatly contributes to our knowledge of the culture of ancient Israel/Palestine. "Listening to Artifacts" examines the use of music and musical instruments in the ancient Israel and Palestine. By taking a close look at some of the enigmatic and under-researched subjects of ancient music, Burgh discusses ways in which the study of music can help us understand daily life in ancient Israel better. Presently, the available collection of musical artifacts from Israel/Palestine dates from 10,000 BCE-4th century CE and numbers over 300 items. While focusing on Iron Age Israel/Palestine (1200-586 BCE), "Listening to Artifacts" uses many of these artifacts, which come from various regions, and draws on examples from surrounding Near Eastern cultures. Burgh uses plaque figurines, figurines in the round, and instrumental remains as well as line drawings of musical activity found on ceramic vessels and walls of buildings to examine music in the ancient Near East. Burgh takes the available musical data and explores how, where, and why music played a part in the lives of those living in ancient Israel/Palestine. His book clearly demonstrates that for the people of this region and time music was an organic, evolving mode of communication that often reflected how they understood life and navigated the world around them. "Listening to Artifacts" suggests that we listen closely and unassumingly to the artifacts and texts in order to hear what they may tell us about past lifeways.

The electoral defeat of the ruling party of Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili — which helped usher in Georgia's Rose Revolution — is being greeted with mixed feelings from democracy promoters. On one hand, the free and fair election and Saakashvili's concession were a remarkable success in a region that's known for its rigged votes. On the other hand, the party that won the parliamentary elections, and gets to choose a new prime minister and cabinet, is run by billionaire Bidzina Ivanishvili, a man who supporters of Saakashvili and others worry is a cutout for Russia.
Whether or not that's true remains to be seen. Ivanishvili made his billions in Russian state-owned industries, and was recently able to sell off these assets at a fair rate, something that just doesn't happen without the green light from Russian President Vladimir Putin. As James Kirchick explains at the Wall Street Journal:
Announcing entry into Georgian politics last year, Mr. Ivanishvili promised to sell off his assets in Russia. He began selling to Russian state-owned concerns and other Kremlin-friendly businessmen, an option not afforded to oligarchs (such as Alexander Lebedev) who have run afoul of the Kremlin. One doesn't become a billionaire in Russia in the 1990s, maintain that wealth and sell those assets at a fair price without the approval of President Vladimir Putin.
What's clear is that Ivanishvili has pushed for much more favorable relations with Russian than Saakashvili, an arch adversary of Putin's. And Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev's enthusiastic response to Ivanishvili's party's victory certainly raises red flags:
Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev yesterday said the opposition's victory showed a desire for change and offered a chance for dialog with Georgia.
"We can only welcome this as it likely means that there will be more constructive and responsible forces in parliament," Medvedev told reporters in Makhachkala, the capital of Dagestan, the Russian region neighboring Georgia.
The Russian Foreign Ministry today said Saakashvili's defeat may allow the Black Sea nation to bring about the "normalization" of ties with its neighbors and to establish "constructive and respectful relations."
It's reasonable to be concerned about Ivanishvili's victory, but it's also too early to say that Georgia's democratic reforms will be rolled back or that it will devolve into a Russian satellite. While Ivanishvili's Georgian Dream party will now choose a prime minister and cabinet, Saakashvili will still hold the presidency until the 2013 elections. It will be important to watch how the current transition takes place, who the Georgian Dream party elevates to key roles, what policies they pursue in office, and how the relationship with Russia changes. Saakashvili has set a critical example in the region for how a democratic leader acts, and Ivanishvili's party should be expected to follow that lead.

I recently bought the Quatro Thrusters LS 102 and 82 after 7 years of sailing Starboard (Evo's 90/75, Quad 87/74). Before that time I was sailing custom-boards for a long time. After some problems with the durability of my SB Quads I decided to try something new, thinking about Goya Quads (104 and 84) and Quatro Quads (110 and 84) as they 've shown great results on the tests of last year (2012). I got caught by the new Quatro Thrusters LS after speaking with Jamie Knox on our Brandon Bay-trip about the advantages of thrusters, reading the website of Quatro and getting some advice from Jeroen Boelema from the Essential Store who is also distributing both brands in the Benelux. I decided to give it a go, after consulting one of my surfbuddies (Griff) who also switched from SB to a Quatro Thruster 82. So, after making a great deal with Jeroen Boelema, two brand new boards are shining in my living room waiting to get punished! A 102 floater to ride waves in minimal conditions and a 82 as my do-it-all-board form 5,4 to 4,0 overpowered.
My profile; I'm 86 kilos, I'm quite experienced, sailing mainly at the Northsea (Scheveningen/Wijk aan Zee) for 25 years and try to stick about 100 sessions a year since I moved to Scheveningen 4 years ago. I love waveriding, I am able to go down the line and into the pocket with some aerials now and then. I'm close to sticking backloops and love to jump also but more in a controlled way. I use a quiver of NP Atlas 6,2/5,4/4,7/4,0 from 17 to 40+ knots.
On the land; the boards look radical in my opinion, they look quite small with a nice pintail. Soft but strong pads and nice, quite small but high straps compared to the wide Drake straps of my SB. They feel light and look exclusive, somebody really took care to make them look 'swag'. The bottom has some big double concaves almost all the way to the tail which has a slight V as I see it. The colour is personal, I got used to the wood of SB and this is something else. The longer I look, the more I love them ;)!
On the water; I sailed the 102 three times now in underpowered conditions with 5,4 and in well powered conditions with 6,2. THE BOARD IS F*CKING AMAZING!!! I was a SB-fan for years but compared to my 87 Quads (I had the 2011 and 2012 version) it planes faster, floats better and feels as small as a sub-90 liters board. On the wave it accelerates when you pressure the rail, speeding up the bottom turn. As my Quad felt a little sluggish in slow waves the Quatro feels light and alive which gives me more speed when going for the topturn. And then? 100+ liters in a topturn? NO PROBLEM!!! The board turns on a dime when riding the backfoot and carves and grips when spraying and going down the line, truly amazing. The volume is great though, making it a great low wind wave machine but a nice bump-and-jumper also when powered up. No problem for me riding this baby up to 23-25 knots with 5,4 and 2m+ waves just as I hoped for. Even a bigger sail 6,7 or so is no problem I think, making the range even bigger.
I only sailed the 82 once last week (big sunday 28 november 2012) in overpowered 4,0 conditions with gusts up to 45 knots and more. As the low end of the 102 is just as I hoped for, so is the high end of my 82. With strong winds and with waves increasing up to logo high, the board never seemed to loose control, staying easy to control and well balanced. I had a lot of problems making smooth gybes in overpowered conditions with my quads (87 and 74), it felt like they were overfinned, lifting the board and breaking out in the turns. The Quatro stays on the rail like you switch to auto pilot. I never made so many easy gybes in 40 knots wind. On the wave the same as the 102 but with the advantage of a little smaller board, tighter carving turns going down the line. You can really push this board and it feels very confident and easy. In the air it felt the same as my SB quad 74 which was great jumping-machine when powered up. But….the 82 planes much, much faster giving me more waves. It definitely fits better with my 86 kilos where the 74 SB quad was a little small. My crossover sail is 5,4 now, making my range bigger. Man, I'm in love with these boards, now they only have to take the beatings and be strong enough to last me a long time!! Time will tell.
You can find all details on the Essential Store website.
[Update 16.12.2012]
I had a sweet session last weekend with the Quatro Thruster 102 in some perfect sideshore conditions and waist to shoulder high waves.
Here's some video footage of that day.
And a second impression of the 102 during a supersweet-session last week;
Do you want more Quatro reviews? Then why not check out the Quatro Quad LS (2013) review.

Reception dress
Maison Touin, Paris
Silk faille, wool & silk brocade, linen lace
Gift of John Kauke
Made by a Paris dressmaker, this purple and cream reception dress could have walked right off a fashion plate. The styling and details are up to the minute, a reflection of high fashion c. 1876. Since the reign of Louis XIV in the late 17th century, Paris had been the fashion epicenter of the Western world. In 1858, when Charles Frederick Worth and business partner Otto Bobergh established Maison Worth et Bobergh at 7 Rue de la Paix, this street and its environs became the heart of Paris' fashion industry. Maison Touin, the house that created this dress, was located at 3 Rue Ventadour, only a few blocks away from the Rue de la Paix and well-within the stylish orbit of the famous street.

Marco Rubio throws cold water on GOP hopes, saying he won't lend some ethnic star power to the 2012 race for president. And you should believe him.
Politico reports (beneath a really bad pic of Marco, by the way):
Freshman Sen. Marco Rubio is pushing back against rumors that he's considering running for president in 2012, saying in his first national television interview since being elected that he's focused on doing the job voters sent him to Washington to do.
"I'm not running for president in 2012," said the Florida Republican, who leveraged tea party support to beat then-Gov. Charlie Crist in a GOP primary and, ultimately, in the general election, where Crist ran as an independent. "I want to be United States senator. I want to be the best United States senator that Florida's ever had."
"I just got elected three months ago," Rubio said in an interview with ABC News, released in part on Tuesday morning. "So how can I be a full-time United States senator if my eye's already on something else?"
"Even speculating about it is problematic, because when you speculate about it what you're basically saying is, I'm thinking about something other than the job that I have before me," he said. But Rubio didn't rule out being considered as the vice presidential running-mate for the eventual 2012 GOP presidential candidate. Some observers think he would be a smart pick, drawing in Hispanic voters, who in large part lean Democratic.
Don't count on it.
The smart money (and TRR sources) say Jeb Bush will very likely run for president in 2016 — when there's no incumbent president with re-election-ready approval ratings and a rock solid ethnic voting base. And if Jeb is going to run, Rubio can't. Not in 2012, when he'd preclude Jeb's own hopes, and not in 2016, when they'd face the minor constitutional problem of being from the same state. Marco Rubio may well want to run for president, but you cannot discount his loyalty to Jeb, who in many ways, created him.
Sorry, GOPers, but you're pretty much stuck with the freak show.

Founder of Aikido (37): Manchukuo and The Noted Sumo Wrestler Tenryu
by Kisshomaru Ueshiba
Aiki News #66 (February 1985)
The following is a chapter summary printed with the kind permission of Mr. Kisshomaru Ueshiba, Aikido Doshu based on the original Japanese text which was published in 1977.
Sekiwake Tenryu
"Manchukuo" was founded in 1932, and though I don't wish to discuss the politics of it here, the Founder had both a direct and an indirect relationship with Manchukuo. He was an advisor to the Manchukuo Martial Art Society and to the Shinbuden Budo Training Center, as well as a martial arts advisor at Kenkoku University. The number of his acquaintances among the military, government and people of Manchukuo becomes quite large if we include everyone related to the spread of aikido there.
Manchuria and Mongolia were emotion-filled places for the Founder. He was called a "soldier kamisama (deity)" when he went there during the Russo-Japan War (1904-5) and, later, he survived the ill-fated expedition there with Master Onisaburo Deguchi of the Omoto Religion. Thus his feelings toward this area must have been quite different from most Japanese in Manchuria.
Demonstrations in Manchukuo
In April of 1942, a martial arts demonstration was held there to commemorate the tenth anniversary of the "Founding of the Nation." The demonstration took place in the great dojo of the Shinbuden, and "Emperor" Pu-yi, the Prime Minister, and other military and government dignitaries as well as famous civilians attended as guests. Only the greatest Japanese experts and masters of the day were invited to demonstrate. Of course the Founder was among them. A high level of skill was exhibited, and the Founder attracted the interest of all. This was partly because not very many people had actually seen his art despite the Founder's fame. Emperor Pu-yi is said to have been the first to stand to give his applause.
This was the third demonstration that the Founder gave in Manchukuo. The first was in 1939, the second was in the following year at commemorative events celebrating Japan's "2,600 year Anniversary." It was at the first demonstration that the Founder met former professional Sumo wrester, Tenryu.
After the offical event, the Founder was requested to demonstrate in a dojo located in the Central Bank. Mr. Yoichiro Inoue served as his partner. However, some of the assembled martial artists doubted the authenticity of the Founder's graceful presentation. The Founder sensed this and suggested that someone from the crowd challenge him.
Encounter With Tenryu
Everybody felt that Tenryu would be good. Ex-professional Sumo wrestler Mr. Saburo Wakuta, better known by his Sumo name "Tenryu" got up in front of the Founder. Young Tenryu had been drummed out of the sport in the early 1930's after attempting to reform the antiquated system. By 1938, the "rebels" finally conceded defeat and Tenryu went to Manchukuo where his innate abilities enabled him to become the Managing Director of the Manchukuo Martial Arts Association. The Founder recognized him when he stood up, "Hmm, so you are the famous Tenryu!"
Let me quote from the "Aikido Newspaper" of November and December 1964, in which Tenryu wrote about their 1942 match.
(Partially quoted) …I thought to myself, "This old man isn't much of anything." As you know he is a small-built person. However, as soon as I casually took hold of his arm. I could sense from my experience in Sumo that this man was really something. It felt as if I had grabbed an iron bar. I wanted to acknowledge defeat right away, despite the fact that everybody was watching. Then Sensei said, "You go ahead and do anything you want with my hand. You can twist it, push it or wrench it. I am not putting any strength in it." So I again went to grab it with all my might. Sensei then instantaneously evaded and before I realized it I said, "I'm beaten. Till now I had harbored a little doubt about your ability but your kokyu and the power you just showed have made me realize everything. Please allow me to become your student.' Sensei then replied, 'I appreciate a person like you asking in such a frank way. I will allow you to be my student.
In his memoirs, Tenryu wrote more:

The deadline for RFP vendor responses is October 20, 2000. An RFP evaluation committee is in place and, as an important part of the evaluation process, teams of professional librarians will have hands-on access to all proposed databases. Completion of the evaluation process is scheduled for November 9, 2000. The Digital Library Gateway and Authentication System, which will also provide a common access point to all Digital Library databases, will be developed and hosted by the Connecticut State University Systems Office in coordination with the State Library's Division of Library Development. Authentication will use IP address for onsite users (Phase I) and public library card number for remote users (Phase II). Plans are also underway to develop the statewide training program for all Digital Library databases. The primary coordinator for the Digital Library is Jane Emerson. For further information email or call Jane Emerson at 860-344-2521.

This first-year "Silvia" is a high-desert car that's reportedly rust-free, complete and all-original, including the absolutely desiccated '70s brown paint. The seller says it "starts right up without hesitation" and "runs great." He says everything works and mentions that he would drive it anywhere. It looked like a no-brainer when I spotted it at a bid of $560 and no reserve.
These cars have a strange, alien shape that's sure to have a polarizing effect on your friends, but I think they're just plain cool. I'd see about sourcing a new dash and some replacement buckets, but I'd leave the toasted paint exactly as it is.
See the listing here.

Wow! I thought they were all gone….My girlfriend had a 1977 Datsun 200SX ( Montrose, Ca. ) and it drove excellent. We took it up to visit her Dad in Reno ( from Montrose ) and we only used a tank and a half. Great riding car , fun interior , good on gas, no rattles, rear wheel drive…..I know Datsun raced the '77 -'78 200SX ( road course ) and had great results with it. As Neil Young would say; " Long may you run….".
Wow, I had one of these in the mid 80′s.
It was a 78 and i kicked the crap out of it, it was hard to kill, cool car but it wasn't up to off road beatings like Honda Civics and VW bugs could handle.
I think this is the first one i've seen since i junked mine, cool car!
My advise? Keep a car like this on the road only, they don't like jumping or playing in the mud.
I don't get it… it's so ugly its own mother would push it away, wasn't particularly reliable and accelerated like a snail on molasses…. what's next, nostalgically fawning over the imagined benefits of the Yugo? I think we're falling victim to that human fault of selective memory. Your recollections of the cars you owned 30+ years ago seem so pleasant because it was great being 30+ years younger than we are now.
I know it's hard to stay out of the rut of covering only popular models like 60′s muscle cars or the really odd, but there has to be some appeal (and you usually find it, like the excellent piece on the '74 Dodge Colt GT) but this thing… well dig a hole and bury it. Then did another and bury the shovel you dug the first hole with.

Junior Phil Bauer
March 12, 2010
COLUMBIA, Mo. - After seven scoreless innings, the Missouri Tigers used a walk-off sacrifice fly in the 13th inning to slip past visiting Xavier Friday evening in a marathon at UM's Taylor Stadium. The Musketeers and Tigers will continue their series Saturday afternoon with first pitch set for 3 p.m.
Senior Drew Schmidt was 3-for-7 at the plate with a run scored for the Musketeers while redshirt senior Neil Lindgren, junior Phil Bauer and freshman Daniel Rod each added two hits as well.
Missouri (6-5) jumped out to an early four-run lead, putting up four runs in the first inning. After a single and two walks loaded the bases for the Tigers, back-to-back ground outs scored MU's first two runs. With a runner on third, Jonah Schmidt sent a ball over the fence for two RBI as both made it home. Heading into the second, Missouri held the 4-0 advantage.
Xavier (1-11) answered with a huge five-run third to take a slim 5-4 lead. Freshman Patrick Paligraf doubled to center field and Schmidt reached first with a bunt single. Both were moved over on a wild pitch and Paligraf scored on a balk, leaving Schmidt on third. Senior Bobby Freking collected an RBI with a single through the left side as Schmidt crossed home and senior Zac Richard followed with a single to right.
Junior Ryan Bellamy singled as well and Freking was able to reach home on an error by the center fielder. Bauer was walked to load the bases and Rod stepped to the plate with two outs in the inning. A base hit to center garnered Rod two RBI as Z. Richard and Bellamy scored on the play.
The Tigers got a run back in both the third and fourth innings to retake the lead, 6-5. But the Musketeers knotted the game at six runs apiece when redshirt senior Neil Lindgren doubled and was brought home on a single up the middle by junior Phil Bauer.
Both teams would battle through the next seven innings with no score until the bottom of the 13th. With no outs and the bases loaded, UM's Andreas Plakis pinch hit for the Tigers and his sacrifice fly sent home Andrew Thigpen who was able to beat out the throw at the plate.
Redshirt sophomore Josh Murphy (0-1) took the loss for the Musketeers after throwing 1.1 innings. He gave up one run on one hit while striking out one and walking two. Redshirt sophomore Nate Mutsch was XU's starter, throwing six innings giving up six runs on seven hits striking out three and walking three. Sophomore Josh Deeg put in five innings of scoreless middle relief, striking out seven while walking two.
Jeff Emens (1-1) earned the first win of his career after coming into the game in the ninth inning. He tossed 4.1 scoreless innings and struck out three while walking one.
The Tigers were led by Brett Nicholas who went 3-for-4 with an RBI.
