Theory better than practice
In theory, Town Meeting is a classic example of democracy in action. In practice, it leaves much to be desired. Many community members cannot afford to take an entire day off; a choice between exercising ones rights and putting food on the table is hardly balanced.
Why is Town Meeting Day NOT a state holiday? When agenda items are not on the ballot, even those folks who try to participate by voting are denied the right to participate in decisions which may affect them. This is neither democratic nor fair.
If town meetings are dominated by the same folks year after year because others cannot afford to spend a day, or are not allowed to do so by their employers, this is not really democracy.

I just picked up a Wii from walmart. I opened it up and on the chipset it had GC2-D2E. I've searched around and it looks like the one to get is the D2pro9 V3. Soldering is not a problem for me, because I do it just about every day.
Any one else has a different opinion of another modchip that they prefer? Just looking for opinion of what someone else used and how it worked from them.

I recommend the wiikey2. The white sticker one will require you to solder 9 wires as you have a d2e. I hear the yellow sticker one only requires 6 wires to be soldered.

Voting for pay raise sets bad standard
When public officials give themselves a pay hike, it usually raises a few eyebrows. Congress is pretty notorious about this and everyone goes off every time our Washington politicians pad their salaries.
Locally, the Coweta County Water and Sewerage Authority recently voted to pay its members $500 a month. Previously, their salary was zilch. And this vote was taken about a month after the Coweta County Board of Commissioners voted 3-2 to not give authority members a raise.
But the authority decided to go ahead and give itself a raise, from zero to $500.
Under state law, county commissioners are allowed to give authority members a raise. They voted not to. However, the law also says authority members – as officers – are allowed to compensate themselves, according to the authority's attorney.
There are three water authority members, and all three also serve as the three officers on the authority board.
"Our board doesn't think they did anything against the board of commissioners," said Melissa Griffis, water authority attorney. "They believe they are following the legislation that is already in place."
We are not questioning the legality of officers voting to give themselves a raise. Nor do we question the hard work and time these local residents give on a volunteer basis. But we do have to question the appearance and if it's the "right thing to do."
Authority members are appointed to the board. They know the pay before agreeing to accept the position, and they can decline a nomination.
No other members of Coweta's boards or authorities are paid, including those serving on the Coweta County Development Authority, the Coweta County Airport Authority, the Board of Zoning Appeals and the like. Members of the Coweta County Board of Education aren't paid, either. The county commissioners are.
Water authority members do an important job and oversee a very large budget. We would argue the school board, development authority and other boards and authorities also do important and time-consuming work on a volunteer basis for our community.
Is $500 a month a lot of money for what they do? Absolutely not. But we don't think one board or authority should vote themselves a raise when others don't.
No one authority should be different than any other.

Stressing evangelization, Pope says goodbye to Portugal
Catholic World News - May 14, 2010
"In Fatima I prayed for the whole world," Pope Benedict XVI said on May 14 as he ended a 4-day visit to Portugal and boarded his return flight for Rome.
The Pontiff began the day on Friday by traveling to Porto, in northern Portugal, where he celebrated Mass in a central plaza. In his homily the Pope urged the faithful to evangelize their society.
"We impose nothing, yet we propose ceaselessly," the Pope said. He insisted that Catholics cannot be passive, but must always seek to bring others closer to God. He said:
We must overcome the temptation to restrict ourselves to what we already have, or think we have, safely in our possession: it would be sure death in terms of the Church's presence in the world; the Church, for that matter, can only be missionary, in the outward movement of the Spirit.
After the Mass he traveled to the Porto airport, where he was joined by Portugal's President Anibal Cavaco Silva for a short farewell ceremony. "May you live in increasing harmony with one another," the Pope said to the people of Portugal, adding that this was "a prerequisite for genuine cohesion and the only way to address the challenges before you."

About EcoEquity
EcoEquity is a small, activist think tank that has had an outsized impact on the international climate justice debate. It has done this primarily, but not exclusively, by way of its work on fair shares international effort sharing via the Greenhouse Development Rights project and, more recently, the Climate Equity Reference Project.
More generally, EcoEquity is focused on developing and promoting climate solutions that are fair enough to actually work. Through our participation in domestic and international networks of activists and scholars, we argue for emergency climate strategies that protect the poor, and more generally protect the rights of all people to dignified levels of just and sustainable development. In other words, we focus on approaches to the climate transition in which the politics of economic justice and the politics of emergency climate mobilization are one and the same.
EcoEquity works by emphasizing the importance of equity principles in all aspects of the policy response, by producing political and economic analyses that highlight equity issues, and by developing practical proposals for equitable climate policies. Our focus has been on the international negotiations but we also work to develop domestic approaches to climate justice that explicitly and organically expand into the project of a just global transition. We believe that, particularly given the failure of 2010's push for US climate legislation — and the major rethink that it has catalyzed — it is critical to stress the US's role in the international deadlock, and its responsibility to help break it. This is of course true for both realist and moral reasons.
Greenhouse Development Rights
EcoEquity has done a great deal, but our greatest accomplishment has clearly been the development, along with the Stockholm Environment Institute, of the Greenhouse Development Rights framework.You can find much more information about the GDRs project, and about the many networks and accomplishments that are associated with it, at its website and its Wikipedia page, but, briefly, GDRs is a principle-based burden sharing framework designed to support an emergency climate mobilization while, at the same time, preserving the economic rights of all people. We believe that, without the latter stipulation, failure in ensured.
After Copenhagen, such an approach is more important than ever. This is particularly true if the "pledge and review" approach that was moved forward in Copenhagen holds — and to some extent this hold is inevitable. In this context, it's essential that the climate movement move towards a far more coherent, and shared, understanding of how various national efforts can be most fairly compared to each other. Remember, the climate crisis is a class commons problem, and as we all know, countries are naturally unwilling to stop exploiting the commons, because doing so just doesn't pay. Even if a country entirely halted its emissions, the benefit (which it would share with all other countries) would be only a minimal reduction in climate damages. Which is to say that taking action is only worthwhile to a country if, and to the extent that it can, induce other countries to similarly take action. And, for that reciprocal action to occur, a country's efforts must be (and must be seen to be) proportional, which is to say, fair. After all, nobody wants to reward a free-rider. Or to be taken for a sucker. And, as we've seen, things only get worse when countries are worried (often excessively) about trade competitiveness and carbon leakage. Which is why, given the turn towards pledge and review, a broad understanding and appreciation of fair-shares burden sharing is more important than ever.
Here, to give you a sense of what is at stake, is nod to EcoEquity's GDRs work from Oxfam's excellent Hang Together or Separately report:
EcoEquity has developed a responsibility and capability index (RCI) as part of its Greenhouse Development Rights framework (see P. Baer, T. Athanasiou, S. Kartha, and E. Kemp-Benedict, The Right to Development in a Climate Constrained World: The Greenhouse Development Rights Framework), which has been influential in the thinking in this report. Within the UN climate negotiations, South Africa and the Philippines have put forward separate proposals for Annex 1 country targets based explicitly on responsibility and capability measures, and whilst the proposed reductions in their submissions are not identical to those used in this report, the methodology used in all cases follows the RCI developed by EcoEquity and resulting emissions-reduction targets are similar in scale.
More specifically, the Greenhouse Development Rights framework quantifies the official principles of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, which call for the widest possible cooperation by all countries and their participation in an effective and appropriate international response, in accordance with their common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities. It does so with the goal of providing a coherent, principle-based way to calculate and compare national obligations to pay for both mitigation and adaptation.
See here for a list accomplishments that are related directly to GDRs. Or see this list of GDRs-related publications and, even more tellingly, this list of significant notices, by others, of GDRs and its role.
Other accomplishments
EcoEquity was organized in 2000, but only funded at a significant level in 2007.Nevertheless, we've accomplished a great deal.Here is a selection of some of our non-GDRs accomplishments:
Established ourselves as a trusted, expert presence in a number of key climate networks, including (domestically) the U.S. Environmental Justice movement, where we have, for example, long been members of the Environmental Justice and Climate Change Initiative and (internationally) the Climate Action Network
Written and published a large number of noted essays and commentaries. These have focused on the politics and philosophy of equity in the climate debate, but have also sought to summarize the science in a clear and straight-forward manner. Our first big hit was Honesty About Dangerous Climate Change, which we first published in September of 2004.
Worked hard to develop the (classic, instantaneous rather than cumulative) per-capita emissions rights approach to global burden sharing into a more robust system capable of accounting for both per-capita emissions rights and varying national circumstances, which we dubbed "Per Capita Plus." (This effort failed; it was by abandoning it that Greenhouse Development Rights was developed).
Published Dead Heat: Global Justice and Global Warming (Seven Stories Press, 2002). The book was well received, has been widely quoted, and is used in academic courses at Princeton and the University of Washington, among others.Were planning, by the way, to republish (an extensively reworked version) of Dead Heat.
Served as core organizers of the Climate Action Network's 2002 "Equity Summit" in Bali, a key climate movement strategy retreat in which the demands of equity were closely examined and widely debated.
Via consulting contract for the UK's Institute for Public Policy Research, influenced the International Climate Change Taskforce to endorse a long-term stabilization target of 400 ppm CO2-equivalent. This (2006) was the first time this honest but demanding target was publicly tied to the 2C threshold.
Emerged as consultants (to the Heinrich Boll Foundation) with A Brief, Adequacy and Equity-Based Evaluation of Some Prominent Climate Policy Frameworks and Proposals, an incisive and reasonably comprehensive overview and critique of "principle based" approaches to differentiation.
Managed, finally, in a blog published during 2005's Montreal climate conference, to finally engage the anti-emission-trading movement in a debate about international financial mechanisms.
In 2007, we were tasked with doing an independent strategic analysis of Friends of the Earth International climate campaign. This was a major analysis, though it remains private.
In 2008, in preparation for the impending march down the road to Copenhagen, the Climate Action Network decided to have a second Equity Summit.EcoEquity was one of the key instigators, agenda setters, and organizers of this summit, which has some very significant (and off the record) results.
In 2009, the Copenhagen year, the international climate negotiations came to even further dominate our work. We accomplished a great deal on this front, but rather than document it here, we refer you to the various sections of the Greenhouse Development Rights website.
After Copenhagen, our immediate focus was strategic reflection. We organized a major report-back in the Bay Area in Jan of 2010, at which EcoEquity's Tom Athanasiou was joined by speakers from 350.org, the Rainforest Action Network, and International Rivers. We attended a large number of movement debates and seminars. And we published a fair number of reflections and analyses. In this regard, see in particular After Copenhagen: On being sadder but wiser, China, and justice as the way forward, which was widely reprinted. We also conducted a major strategic review of our accomplishments and plans.
We currently have a number of specific projects in process, including domestic projects designed to expand US climate justice politics more explicitly into the project of a just global transition. The tenor here can best be seen in Tax Justice as Climate Justice, which is, perhaps, a bit of a manifesto.

July 22, 2013
MADISON, Wis. -- Members of the Wisconsin men's hockey team received their 2013 WCHA Champions rings last week, which now serve as lifelong reminders of the Badgers' memorable run through the second half of the 2013-13 season.
"It's something that you'll have forever," senior forward Michael Mersch said. "You'll be able to put it in your office and show your family and your kids someday."
Had fans not witnessed Wisconsin pull it off, last season's turnaround would seem to be something only Hollywood could have imagined. After a 1-7-2 start, the Badgers caught fire and went 21-5-5 the rest of the way, including a 3-2 win over Colorado College in the WCHA Final Five Championship game that granted the team an NCAA tournament berth.
Wisconsin's turnaround is commemorated on the ring. Engraved on the underneath side are two records: 1-7-2 and 22-13-7 -- the Badgers' final season mark.
"It's pretty cool to see where we came from and what we really did achieve," junior defenseman Jake McCabe said. "We never quit. We persevered. Winning the league title makes for a pretty special season and it's great to have like that to carry with us for the rest of our lives."
While the WCHA title ring is nice, the Badgers have already begun to set their sights on a much loftier goal for next season.
"Obviously a national championship ring is definitely the goal and I think it's a very reachable goal," McCabe said. "We have the team to do it, we have the leadership for it and we have the staff to do it too. So, October can't come soon enough."

The Ten Best Deleted Scenes on the 'Twin Peaks' Blu-Ray Set
Posted on Thursday, July 17th, 2014 by Russ Fischer
Twin Peaks: The Entire Mystery, the upcoming remastered blu-ray release of the two seasons of Twin Peaks and the feature film Fire Walk With Me, contains a huge treat for fans. One disc in the set features 'The Missing Pieces,' a feature-length compilation of deleted and extended scenes. Most are from Fire Walk With Me, but there are a few from the series itself. It's an incredible collection of footage that for decades has been known to exist, but which has never been seen.
'The Missing Pieces' premiered in Los Angeles last night, and I've compiled a list of what I'd consider the ten most essential scenes. They are mostly character moments that give us something never seen elsewhere in the series or the film. With three exceptions all these picks are standalone scenes rather than extended edits. But two of the extended scenes are among the most-desired bits of film in the set, and the last one, which comes from the series itself, will be seen as an absolute treasure by some.
Note: There are no big Twin Peaks spoilers below but obviously there are some spoilers for the content of the new 'Missing Pieces' feature on the Blu-ray set. Read More »

Those thermoses are so cute and bring back memories of the ones we had when I grew up.
This fabric reminds me of the outdoors--clean fresh mountain air. Would make a good summer project.
This would make a great quilt for my hubby who loves boating-camping. I would love to win this.
So many projects on my list, I don't know where to begin. I am in the process of completing two group quilts for my guild's quilt bingo, and will then focus on completing some UFOs, mostly some BOMs.
Love the theme of this fabric, I walk at a local nature center.
I am joining a quilt guild and look forward to sewing up the fabric for fundraisers for not -for- profit groups, etc.
Thank you
My granddaughter, the tomboy, is going to be visiting us this summer. I would love to use this to help her learn to quilt and make something she can take home with her.
Thanks for the contest.
I would love to get a dinosaur themed quilt started! I have the fabric and pattern but I am hesitant to start because I want to make sure I do a good job!
I plan on making a quilt out of those fat quarters if I win!! But, if I don't win, then that means I will continue to finish the quilts I am currently working on. That fabric is adorable and brings back so many memories of camping from Girl Scouts to camping with family and friends.

Thank you for taking the time. To read this and consider this.
I'd like to make a another quilt to take camping. It gets cold here in the mountains even during summer so I always take a quilt for my bed in the tent. I need a new one because my last one was lost on the trip to the lake. It apparently blew out of the truck. The only positive thing I hold onto is that I hope a quilt lover found it and is enjoying it.
How cute.....what a fun camping or picnic quilt this would make!

Grandbaby # 17 needs a quilt!!!

This would make a fabulous quilt to donate to our Green Lake Association to help raise money to keep our lake healthy!

I am planning on dying fabric this summer. Trying some shibori techniques.
It must be serendipity. I just sat down to work on a quilt design for a friend of mine who is very ill and was recently diagnosed with a chronic, debilitating condition. She worked for the forest service for years and loves to go hiking, camping, and rock hounding. Unfortunately, she is bed ridden now. I hope that she will recover enough to get back to what she enjoys most, but in the meantime, a quilt with those fabrics will be perfect. In case I don't win, I'll be buying some of these for her quilt. Thank you so much for the inspiration!! I look forward to getting her quilt done before her birthday at the end of June.
This is good fabric for patio pillows.
My twin granddaughters have moved from Michigan to Florida and will now only be an hour away. I will be making quilts for their new beds that will change with the seasons, not to mention clothes for their 15" American Girl dolls. They each received a sewing machine (suitable for 7 year olds) at Christmas and I will be teaching them AND their mom how to make simple quilts. The girls will do quilts for their dolls and as they grow older will move on to larger quilts AND learning to sew clothing. Looking forward to a very rewarding summer and bringing new quilters into the fold.
Thanks for the opportunity to win this delightful fabric. Good luck to everyone and may each and everyone of you enjoy all the very best life has to offer.
Terri at the Drake's Nest in Palm Bay, FL

That's it for the summer,
Linda 798
I have gone to the James stitchin sisters place once with my daughter, I would love to have her try free motion quilting on one of their machines this summer.

When travelling, what constitutes an attraction? Why are people eternally drawn to them? It can be for many reasons (i.e. awe-inspiring, peculiar, historical significance, whimsical, etc.) but one main factor is an inherent sense of romance. People congregate to certain places by the way it makes them feel, and to remind themselves that romance is far from dead.
Some attractions serve as a backdrop, a unique spectacle with a scale that defies comprehension or a monument to human ingenuity and perserverance.Or it may be an exotic setting that manages to give lovers a magical sense, while the whole time feeling at home with each other.Or it may simply be somewhere that inspires you to take in the experience, hold your true love's hand, and never let it go.
Around every corner, Thailand has interesting and romantic attractions with fascinating stories behind them. There are natural wonders that speak for themselves. There are places that will make you gasp and smile and even laugh. They will transport you to another era, or perhaps one which you assumed only existed in dreams. They are worth a visit, a photo, and a moment of contemplation, to be shared with the one you adore, your soulmate.
The moment one decides to ask someone to share the rest of their lives with them is one of those occasions that becomes a permanent fixture in both memories. Therefore, much thought often goes into selecting the right spot.
While drama may be roughly classified as tragedy or comedy, one element that is rarely missing is that of romance. In Thailand, we have a rich tradition of performance, from classical dance to puppetry.
If Thailand were a person, she would be not only kind and generous (and an excellent cook), she would most definitely also be incredibly beautiful and photogenic.
On a beautiful day, sometimes all you want to do is take your beloved by the hand and go for a walk.
As true love is a blessing, some believe a blessing can lead to true love. Here in Thailand, we have places dedicated to this ideal.

Southern California based medical device manufacturer, ReShape Medical® , launched its new ReShape Duo® intragastric dual-balloon at the British Obesity and Metabolic Surgery Society's (BOMSS), 3rd Annual Scientific Conference 2012 held recently (19th and 20th January 2012) at the Bristol Marriott Hotel Royal.
Attended by over 300 delegates from obesity management including bariatric surgeons, medical professionals, specialist nurses, psychologists and dieticians, the 2 day conference addressed many topical subjects. These ranged from the economics of obesity in the UK from a public health perspective, and the UK's adolescent obesity problem, through to exploring long-term data relating to gastric banding, and looking ahead at the impact of increasing obesity in society generally.
ReShape Medical President and CEO, Richard Thompson, said of ReShape Duo's launch, "We were gratified by the genuine interest shown in the ReShape Duo. The meeting confirmed that many UK doctors are seeking nonsurgical alternatives to offer their patients who don't want or don't qualify for bariatric surgery."
As part of the conference, ReShape Medical hosted a Breakfast Symposium at which, Dr. David Ashton MD, PhD, Medical Director of Healthier Weight gave a presentation introducing the ReShape Duo. He provided an overview of its features and benefits and went on to talk about recent medical experience with the device in Italy and the US, referring to supporting data. Dr. Ashton also spoke about the ease of the procedures for placement and removal of the ReShape Duo, details of its effectiveness, how well it is tolerated by patients and its excellent safety profile.
The ReShape Duo is designed for those who have exhausted their efforts with diets alone and wish to avoid, or do not qualify for bariatric surgery. It comfortably occupies existing space in the stomach for six months, serving as built-in portion control, so patients feel full and satisfied with less food. The Duo can be placed in the stomach during a simple, fifteen minute outpatient procedure. Trained healthcare professionals at Healthier Weight will provide support during and after the balloon treatment to help patients keep weight off.

The UK's move to net gas importer status has raised concerns over the country's dependence on gas as the principal fuel for power generation. Given that demand for energy is increasing, the UK now has two choices: focus on developing a broad mix of generation including nuclear and renewable sources, or maintain the dependence on gas with its inherent vulnerability to increases in import costs.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has been quoted saying that by 2010 10% of UK gas demand is likely to be sourced from Russian imports. Whilst Russian gas will no doubt assume greater prominence in the UK over time, Mr Putin's forecast appears extremely bullish given the availability of geographically closer gas sources and is unlikely to materialize in the short to medium term.
Centrica, the parent company of British Gas, is subject to significant volatility due to the fact that it purchases gas from the UK wholesale market, the NBP. This volatility places utilities, including Centrica, under a great deal of pressure to pass changes in wholesale pricing through to retail customers in order to remain profitable.
On October 3, Ukraine and Russia signed a Memorandum of Understanding under which price increases for gas imports will be spread over three years. Although Kiev appears to have secured supply at a manageable cost, lack of detail in the agreement and turmoil in Ukrainian politics suggests the deal will have little impact in the long run.
In an attempt to establish itself as an exporter to the EU, Turkmenistan has announced plans to provide some of its 40bcm annual surplus of natural gas to the Nabucco pipeline project. Although this will allow the country to diversify its export markets, it will face numerous challenges to selling its gas to the EU, as it will have to bypass the two major players in the region, Iran and Russia.
In a bid to bolster its goal of becoming a major European gas hub, Turkey has entered into a deal worth around GBP1.75 billion with Iran, through which it will help to develop the region's massive South Pars gas field. Despite opposition to the deal on political grounds, the agreement will help to secure European energy supplies as alliances with Russia become increasingly risky.
As emerging renewable energy markets across Europe opt to cut their feed-in tariffs for photovoltaics in an attempt to curtail government spending, Turkey is introducing its first feed-in tariff support scheme for solar power, as well as wind, hydro, and geothermal technology. However, the new changes are unlikely to be enough to meet Turkey's ambitious renewables targets.
As revolution sweeps through the Middle East and North Africa, the region's economic stability is increasingly at risk. It took only two days for Libya to descend into full-scale civil war, and Algeria remains on high alert. While the political mayhem is a threat to Europe's post-colonial legacy, Libya and Algeria stand out from the rest due to Europe's dependence on their oil and gas resources.
Fear of another disruption to Russian gas supplies continues to stalk EU policy makers, despite Ukrainian prime minister Yulia Tymoshenko's insistence that her country has sufficient funds to meet monthly gas payments to Russia. This has made possible the passage of a new EU regulation demanding that states can meet 60 days of peak demand for gas, but seamless cross-border trade is the next step.
Due to increased demand, the global shale gas industry is likely to witness significant investment in the medium to long term, particularly in the US, along with a number of developing markets with large reserves, such as China, Argentina, Mexico, Brazil, Libya, and Algeria. However, environmental concerns and the lack of regulatory policies may impede the sector's global development.

Some signs should never be ignored, especially when they could carve a cheek or slice an ear.
Adelaide St., west of Spadina Ave., is an eclectic area since a transformation from warehouses and industry to condos and small businesses began about a half-dozen years ago.
The increase in pedestrians can only be a good thing, unless they fail to take note of a sign at Adelaide and Portland St. that is perfectly positioned for a painful, face-to-face encounter.
Brian Kikstra emailed to say, "A sign leaning over the sidewalk at face level is like a knife edge waiting to slice someone.
"I almost lost my nose recently as I avoided an elderly person in a scooter.
"This sign has been like this for years and nothing gets done. Will someone's cheek have to be sacrificed for this to be resolved?"
We went there and found a sign with information on it concerning a small parking lot on the southeast corner, mounted to a post that was bent just enough to angle out over the sidewalk.
The sign is at the same level as the head of an average-sized person, with edges perfectly positioned to slice the face of a distracted pedestrian, maybe someone looking at a text that just came in on their iPhone.
After looking at a Google Street View photo of the corner, it's apparent the sign was bent by a vehicle trying to squeeze into the parking space next to it.
STATUS: The pole is sunk into ground that appears to be part of the municipal right-of-way just inside the sidewalk, which would give the city authority to remove it. Kyp Perikleous, who's in charge of right-of-way management in that area, emailed to say an investigator has been sent to check it out and take whatever steps are needed to make it safe.
OOPS, AGAIN:In our column last Tuesday about the sabotage of the CN Tower in the scale model of Toronto inside the main doors of city hall, we referred to Mike McCoy as a city facilities manager. Margaret Dougherty, who deals with media for the city, sent us a note saying we got McCoy's title wrong "again," and that he is a Director of Facilities Operations.

Viitakangas and Bettencourt win in SA
BY Golf South Australia | 06 Apr 2014
Simon Viitakangas from the Palmer Gold Coast Golf Club in Queensland has fired a Glenelg course record 7-under-par 64 to take out the Golf SA Amateur Classic by 1 stroke ahead of fellow Queenslander Aaron Wilkin.
Heading into the final round 2-over, four strokes behind leader Jarryd Felton from WA and two behind Tory Moses, Aaron Wilkin and Jordan Zunic, Viitakangas stormed out of the blocks with 4 birdies and an eagle on the opening nine holes, to move to 3-under-par for the tournament.
At the turn, Viitakangas trailed Wilkin by 1, who himself started with four biridies on the front nine while Felton had dropped back after four bogeys to make the turn at 4-over.
"I played tactical golf coming home, trying to just keep the ball in play" Viitakangas said.
With an eagle on the par 5 12th a hole he had previously birdied in each of the opening 3 rounds, Wilkin moved to 5-under-par, 2 ahead.
Viitakangas then strung together 3 consecutive birdies through 13 to 15, to claim the lead by 1 for the first time in the tournament.
In the group ahead of Wilkin, Viitakangas bogeyed the 17th after finding the hazard from the tee and then made par on the last to be clubhouse leader at 5-under.
Viitakangas expected Wilkin to force a playoff, but Wilkin too found trouble on the 17th dropping a shot after hitting his tee shot to behind trees and then finding the greenside bunker with his approach.
Heading down the par 5 last, Wilkin needed to birdie, but his approach fell short, requiring him to sink a 30 footer to force the playoff. He almost rolled his putt in, but had to settle for par and a runner up finish.
"I had the mindset of having to post a good number today, whatever was going to be, was going to be and it just happened." Viitakangas said
"I put this down to course management. I played quite smart golf around this layout and it was just enough to get by." Viitakangas added.
"This is no easy golf course and I'm just happy with the win and the way I was able to hold it together coming down the closing stages. You never know sometimes and today it fell my way."
"It's nice to win my second event this season after winning the Master of the Amateurs. I'm really learning how to keep my composure".
Jordan Zunic (NSW) finished in 3rd position at 2-under, while Todd Sinnott (VIC) finished fourth at 1-under with a closing round of 66.
Overnight leader Jarryd Felton closed with a disappointing 74 to finish in 6th position, with South Australia Anthony Murdaca finishing 7th.
Cory Crawford, Scott Ready and Benjamin Stone rounded out the top-10.
Women's – Rene Erichsen Salver
Hayley Bettencourt from Mandurah Golf Club in WA has cruised to victory in the Rene Erichsen Salver held at the Glenelg Golf Club in Adelaide finishing at 8-over for the tournament.
After trailing Hannah Green from Mt Lawley Golf Club, by seven strokes after round one, Bettencourt made her charge in round two, moving to joint equal leader after 36 holes with a round of 74.
"In the first round, I didn't have a swing, I was struggling with the feel and the only thing that was working was my putter. I said to myself just don't have a blowout, so I was relatively happy to finish at 5-over." Bettencourt said.
After three rounds, the Western Australian held a 6 stroke buffer from her nearest opponent Jo Charlton from Metropolitan and was 8 ahead of both Elizabeth Elmassian (NSW) and Kono Matsumoto (VIC).
"In rounds two and three, I had a few things on my mind that I wanted to work on and in the end my short game was on fire really". Bettencourt said after posting rounds of 74-72.
Going into the final round, Bettencourt was never going to be complacent. "I wasn't overly confident as I've been shaky in the last round in the past few tournaments, but I've worked on a few things at a recent WA Camp and with my coach Richie Smith". Bettencourt said.
Bettencourt retained her lead throughout the final round and with three birdies on the front nine, was 6 ahead of her nearest rival Charlton through 12 holes.
Despite bogeys on 14, 15 and 17, Bettencourt held a six stroke lead down the last and finished in fine style with a birdie on the 467metre par 5 final hole to claim her second big win of the year, after taking honors at the WA Amateur mid-March.
"Around this course you definitely have to play smart. Towards the end I just wanted to chill out, have fun and let it go and not worry about what was happening."
"My course management and short game, chipping and putting basically got me over the line this week" said Bettencourt.
"I've become a lot smarter, I'm not the longest hitter, but have developed a very good short game. I just play to the centre of the green and then I'm confident with the putter."
Three out of the current top five women players and two out the top four men Amateurs, are from WA.
"There's a real positive vibe coming out of WA at the moment and we're all feeding off each other. I'm really looking forward to the Interstate Series, then I'm off to the US for a few big tournaments". Bettencourt added.
Finishing runner up in the Rene Erichsen was Jo Charlton at (15-over) after posting rounds75-77-77-74 (303). A further stroke back in third was Elizabeth Elmassian, 79-83-69-73 (304).
Jenny Lee was the best placed South Australian finishing in 8th position with rounds of 80-76-79-78 (25-over).

New Eminem video portrays, confronts domestic abuse.
Eminem video: I Love the Way You Lie ft. Rihanna, Megan Fox, Dominic Monaghan—and an Abusive Relationship.
Eminem's latest video portrays domestic abuse.
75 Million views in just two weeks—what does America's youth get from this song?
…I laid hands on her…next time I'll hit the dry wall…If she ever tries to f*cking leave again Imma tie her to the bed And set the house on fire…
With four of the hippest, biggest names in entertainment, Eminem's latest is playing everywhere—and playing with fire. It's brave, it's open, it's dangerously ambiguous.
Rihanna recently…said: "It's something that, you know, we've both experienced on different sides, different ends of the table.
"Eminem pretty much just broke down the cycle of domestic violence and it's something that people don't have a lot of insight on. I knew if he sent me a record there must be something to it. It couldn't just be, 'Oh, duh! She was in that relationship so we have to get her.' The lyrics were so deep, so beautiful and intense. It's something that I understood, something I connected with." In the song, Eminem raps: "I laid hands on her/I'll never stoop so low again/I guess I don't know my own strength."
Just gonna stand there
And watch me burn
But that's alright
Because I like
The way it hurts
Just gonna stand there
And hear me cry
But that's alright
Because I love
The way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
I can't tell you what it really is
I can only tell you what it feels like
And right now there's a steel knife
In my windpipe
I can't breathe
But I still fight
While I can fight
As long as the wrong feels right
It's like I'm in flight
High of a love
Drunk from the hate
It's like I'm huffing paint
And I love it the more that I suffer
I suffocate
And right before I'm about to drown
She resuscitates me
She f*cking hates me
And I love it
Where you going
I'm leaving you
No you ain't
Come back
We're running right back
Here we go again
It's so insane
Cause when it's going good
It's going great
I'm Superman
With the wind in his bag
She's Lois Lane
But when it's bad
It's awful
I feel so ashamed
I snap
Who's that dude
I don't even know his name
I laid hands on her
I'll never stoop so low again
I guess I don't know my own strength
Just gonna stand there
And watch me burn
But that's alright
Because I like
The way it hurts
Just gonna stand there
And hear me cry
But that's alright
Because I love
The way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
You ever love somebody so much
You can barely breathe
When you're with them
You meet
And neither one of you
Even know what hit 'em
Got that warm fuzzy feeling
Yeah them chills
Used to get 'em
Now you're getting f*cking sick
Of looking at 'em
You swore you've never hit 'em
Never do nothing to hurt 'em
Now you're in each other's face
Spewing venom
And these words
When you spit 'em
You push
Pull each other's hair
Scratch, claw, bit 'em
Throw 'em down
Pin 'em
So lost in the moments
When you're in 'em
It's the rage that took over
It controls you both
So they say it's best
To go your separate ways
Guess that they don't know ya
Cause today
That was yesterday
Yesterday is over
It's a different day
Sound like broken records
Playin' over
But you promised her
Next time you'll show restraint
You don't get another chance
Life is no Nintendo game
But you lied again
Now you get to watch her leave
Out the window
Guess that's why they call it window pane
Just gonna stand there
And watch me burn
But that's alright
Because I like
The way it hurts
Just gonna stand there
And hear me cry
But that's alright
Because I love
The way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
Now I know we said things
Did things
That we didn't mean
And we fall back
Into the same patterns
Same routine
But your temper's just as bad
As mine is
You're the same as me
But when it comes to love
You're just as blinded
Baby please come back
It wasn't you
Baby it was me
Maybe our relationship
Isn't as crazy as it seems
Maybe that's what happens
When a tornado meets a volcano
All I know is
I love you too much
To walk away though
Come inside
Pick up your bags off the sidewalk
Don't you hear sincerity
In my voice when I talk
Told you this is my fault
Look me in the eyeball
Next time I'm pissed
I'll aim my fist
At the dry wall
Next time
There will be no next time
I apologize
Even though I know it's lies
I'm tired of the games
I just want her back
I know I'm a liar
If she ever tries to f*cking leave again
Imma tie her to the bed
And set the house on fire
Just gonna stand there
And watch me burn
But that's alright
Because I like
The way it hurts
Just gonna stand there
And hear me cry
But that's alright
Because I love
The way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
Pretty close to home, this one. What do you think?
I'll copy a few comments so you all can see the kinds of thoughts this video inspires: for me it was a mixture of (I don't want to see this) and (this is pretty close to home for Rihanna) and, as one of the comments said, (at least this is about life, not pool parties).

On a surface level this is just about abusive relationships, but on a deeper level I feel it depicts the human condition and self inflicted suffering that we all share. Eminem probably does not consciously try to portray deeper truths in his work and for his simplistic approach he is often criticized as well as the fact that he does not seem to be condemning the negative things he portrays. But for that I am a fan. No matter how 'enlightened' we are, we are all fucked up, we are all human and we are all deluded. You have to not only accept your delusion but embrace it completely. Even wallow in it for a time as this Video portrays. Not to read to much (more) into it but the burning of the individual is very symbolic.
When a person believes that someone else can complete them, be their soul mate, their other half, and can make them happy, and then starts to hold that person responsible for their happiness, then the flip side of love often occurs (hate) as they become enraged that the other person is now "choosing" to not make them feel happy. A cycle then begins: love, hate, love, hate and that goes on and on for awhile, until it becomes mostly hate, and then the miserable permanent break-up. "Happiness" actually always comes and goes, and the real quest should be for inner peace. That is something you have to learn about for yourself. No one else is responsible for your happiness. or your inner peace, but you will surely eventually get very pissed off if you believe that someone else is responsible for your happiness or for your misery. There is such a pressure in this culture from so many people believing that they should always be happy, and that someone or something outside of themselves can make them always feel happy. That is a form of insanity that will only heal when you realize that only you are responsible for your own inner peace today, and that happiness will always come and go, no matter who you are with.
when you are "there" you do love the hurt and the lies you don't see another way out…I think this is a very healing journery for both of them…it was powerful, could some take it as saying DV is ok? of course…people will always bend things to their own will and to justify their actions – but I will not fault this video. Rhianna is so brave.
I agree. You are ultimately responsible for your own suffering and have to come to terms with that or choose to wallow in it. The people who expect pop culture to send positive messages are not only completely unrealistic but they are missing the point of being able to self filter and take personal responsibility. People are much more resilient than we give them credit for and judging someone else's situation or behavior is just a reflection of our own personal experiences and judgments.
We could get into issues of BDSM but I wont go there for now…
"you are ultimately responsible for your own suffering…"
What a privileged, white, American thing to say.
A woman with two children who has no choice but to rely on her abusive boyfriend to take care of them financially is not responsible for her own suffering, Aron. The boyfriend is.
We have this incredibly inaccurate mythology in this country that leads us to believe that a person can simply walk away from their problems if they so wish; and that the complexities and obstacles associated with breaking free from an abusive relationship simply don't exist. The hold that a violent spouse can have over a partner is much stronger than you might think – and blaming the situation on the aggrieved party's "inability" to transcend their own suffering is both misogynistic and blatantly ignorant.
tl;dr: Simple people give simple answers to complex problems.
as a survivor i realize you gotta realize and recognize the insanity of all before you can GET OUT and try to turn a different direction-toward truth and life
too few won't look
too few never speak of it
too few learn
this song, this video needs to be
let it teach for those have eyes to see and ears to hear
I enjoy listening to Eminem. The rawness feels very real and resonates with me. At the same time, I wouldn't share this with my young nieces. Part of me would prefer some more moralistic condemnation of violence, even though the ambiguity may be more raw and letting the thing exist as it is.
[…] also depicts revenge—murder—as a result of said rape. This is the second time of late that an incredible song featuring Rihanna's talents has mixed powerful issues of sexuality and violence with catchy, […]
you've gotten a terrific weblog here! would you like to make some invite posts on my blog?
Ashley, I agree. That is one of my concerns as well – the complexity of this addictive, abusive cycle is not well conveyed.
The addictive element is so true- having lived through an abusive relationship (mine was intense emotional terrorism, until the day I left and then it turned physical), I spent years afterwards diving into my addictive personality.
The first thing I instinctively turned towards, BTW, was yoga.

2. DERRICK ROSE – turns 25 on October 4, 2013
What more is there to say about the 2011 NBA MVP? Rose burst onto the scene in Memphis where he had his team one Mario Chalmers three away from an NCAA title, then was drafted first overall in the 2008 Draft before winning the 2008-09 NBA's Rookie of the Year award. He's averaged over 21 points and seven assists per game the last two seasons, including 25 points per game and 7.7 assists per game in his MVP 2011 campaign. His Chicago Bulls ended the last Rose-led two regular seasons with the league's best record, even though injuries limited his effectiveness in last season's lockout-shortened regular season. Then, in the first game of the playoffs against the Philadelphia 76ers last spring, tragedy struck in the form of a torn ACL in the waning seconds of Chicago's victory.
Obviously we're all eagerly anticipating Rose's return to action sometime in the new year, but even with the difficult rehab and return from his knee surgery on the horizon, Rose has done enough to warrant inclusion so high on this list. He already has MVP and ROY awards, and he just turned 24 this past October. That's ridiculous. His game is just as ridiculous, and everything about his performance so far in the NBA makes you want to string complimentary adjectives together.
Opposing point guards are glad for a little rest from his insane crossover; his ability to get up and dunk it – even at just 6-3 – is otherworldly; his game belongs in a video game, and his playoff debut is already the stuff of legends. When healthy, he's one of the most unstoppable 1-on-1 players in the league, and even injured, he still deserved a Dime cover. In a word, he's the "realness" and we can't wait to watch him come all the way back from the knee injury and wow us for the next decade.
