Excellent service. I ask them if I could make my check in before 3 pm (the official hour) because I was going to arrive at 9 am, and they had my room ready for that hour.
The hotel is a beautiful place with excellent finishes. Everything was in great condition and high quality.
The rooms were small, which in understandable given the location, but this was a double bed room so it seemed even smaller.
Amaizing service with very friendly staff
Beds and pillows were amaizing
Comfort of the room
Lack of phone service or free wifi.
The staff
Felt a bit hurried to finish our breakfast.
Horribly overpriced
The Crowne Plaza The Hamilton was a lovely hotel. All of the staff were quick to help and offer assistance. The rooms were gorgeous. The location was perfect for a concert at the Verizon Center, going to the monuments on the Mall and going to a football game at FedEx field.
I really appreciate the quality of the room I stayed in as well as the staff. During my stay, there been a rowdy bunch of Middle School students who were staying for the weekend but as soon as I called up the hotel staff to complain about the noise at 8:30am, security sorted them out within half an hour. The hotel employees then even called me up again to make sure I was alright. I really appreciated their attentiveness.
Excellent room and services! Great Hotel
No free internet / matress too soft
It was very close to all the attractions and also very friendly and helpful staff.

Who will be the most improved rookie?
I like Alex Barron, but I really like Hedgecock. He is a beast. If we can draft or obtain a good TE, man! Steven Jackson will really gain alot of yards. Also one more on Madison, did anyone read that he played some linebacker in college. I wonder how well he would be at that position now---not that I would want to toy with that, but if needed due to injuries.

Online dynasty anyone?
I'm looking to start one sometime soon, it'll be 8 man, whatever teams you want. I'll try to advance it every couple nights, or just when everyone is ready. Try to keep the "cheapness" to a low when playing Pv.P. (no putting percy harvin as your back up qb) My gamertag is Imigliori14. First come, first serve. Just include the team you want in your friend request, and put it on here so more than one person doesn't try to get the same team. I'll try my best to get as many of the nonconference games to be player vs player.
btw,I'm USC

Fritz Pollard: A leader before his time
Celebrating Black History Month: Fritz Pollard
It's game day at Yale University in the early 1900s, a tough field to play on for the Brown University Bears. But they head out of the tunnel with heads held high and helmets strapped on tight, ready to do battle. The crowd is brash and you can sense the hostility in the air. The air is frigid but the stands are filled with blonde-haired, blue-eyed students, holding posters bearing the names of their favorite players inked in black marker. As the Yale University Dans take the field, there is a sense of entitlement the Bears recognize all too quickly. As Brown star player Fritz Pollard meets his team at the 50-yard-line, the roar of the crowd takes over any thoughts going through his mind.
"They hated him. When they played, I believe when they played Yale, they use to sing 'Bye-Bye Blackbird' when he'd come out on the field," Stephen Towns, Fritz Pollard's grandson, said.
Pollard, standing a meager 5-foot-9, 165 pounds, keeps his head high, knowing the sheer talent he possesses. He greets his teammates with a reassuring smile which lifts their spirits instantaneously. It is time for Pollard to do what he does best; perform.
"He said after a couple of 70-yard runs, all of that [taunting] would stop," said Towns. "At Brown, he was an absolute superstar (laughs)…he was voted one of the top 50 football players in the first half of the century."
"With hearing about his exploits throughout the time you're growing up, you kind of get use to it and you kind of take it for granted, but you really never knew what his true contribution was… what his place in history was," Towns recounts.
Frederick Douglass "Fritz" Pollard was born on Jan. 27, 1894 in Chicago. By the time he graduated high school he had become a superb athlete, excelling in three sports – baseball, football and a three-time Cook County track champion. As he moved into his collegiate career, he had brief stints at Northwestern, Harvard and Dartmouth, before receiving a well-deserved scholarship from the prestigious Rockefeller family to attend Brown University.
At the time Rhode Island's Brown was a predominately Caucasian, private Ivy League university. It was during his tenure there that he led the Bears to the Rose Bowl against Washington State University on New Year's Day of 1916. He was the first African-American to play in the Rose Bowl, and only the second to be named an All-American in college football. After college, Pollard pursued a brief interest in dentistry but soon realized his true love was football.
In 1920, Pollard signed to play professionally with the Akron Pros in the American Professional Football Association (APFA) and that same year led them to a championship.
"First African-American to actually play QB, he played QB a little bit in the league, took some snaps."
Even while playing for the Pros, he was named head coach in 1921. Soon after, the APFA was renamed NFL (National Football League) making Pollard the first African-American head coach in NFL history.
"My grandfather's teams had this wide open offense… and I actually think my grandfather probably invented the West Coast offense, which it was kind of taken away as things went along, but there's a lot of passing, reverses, and wide splits and all that kind of stuff, and NFL players just weren't used to seeing that," said Towns with a look of pride in his expression.
Between Pollard's great passing abilities and then-teammate Jim Thorpe's all-around athleticism, the two were unstoppable and brought a lot of money into the league during the years leading up to the Great Depression.
"He and Jim Thorpe probably kept the league from folding (laughs)… literally, because that was the only time the teams made money, when they came to play. They were the two biggest stars in the league at that point in time," as Towns said with a smile.
The period leading up to the Great Depression was not a time for the feeble-minded and Pollard was far from weak. Times were tough and were only about to get tougher, especially for African-Americans in the NFL. Pollard then went on to coach two NFL teams, the Milwaukee Badgers and Hammond Pros. However, at the conclusion of the 1926 season, Pollard and nine of the other African-Americans playing in the NFL at the time were removed from the league, never to return again.
"He was a real rabble-rouser… and had been through a lot and really didn't take stuff off of people… and most people were not aware that the league, when the NFL was first founded, was not segregated. There were African-American players in the league for a number of years. I guess about 1934 several of the owners, [thought] that it was the depression and it wasn't good for business to have black people working… and with all the other white people unemployed, and one of the things was football, and there were still black players in the league," said Towns.
Pollard spent years urging the NFL to allow African-Americans to return to the game and finally after years of avoidance, the NFL lifted the ban on players of color in 1946 coincidentally after the conclusion of WWII. According to Towns, the segregation of the league existed from 1934-1946.
"And that didn't change I believe until 1946, when Woody Strode and Kenny Washington were drafted by the LA Rams," said Towns.
Upon his retirement from football, he pursued a career in business, where his former player and friend, Paul Robeson, resurfaced into his life.
"Paul Robeson was a good, not only played for my grandfather, but was a good friend. My grandfather later went on to manage him on some of his… exploits as a singer and actor," said Towns.
It seems Pollard became somewhat of a renaissance man, with his heavy involvement in entertainment and movies.
After Pollard's passing in 1986, many questions began arising about who exactly this man was.
"He died in '86, so after that, we started seeing people started talking about 'who is this guy?'… started coming out, and they started saying 'well gosh', then they start looking, he was a Walter Camp All-American, 1916 played on 1st Rose Bowl team, 1954, he was elected to the College Football Hall of Fame, I believe he was the first African-American to be in that, I've got his plaque here too," said a proud Towns.
Nevertheless, through all the trials and tribulations of his career, Fritz received the highest honor a player could ever dream of. On August 7, 2005, Fritz Pollard was inducted into the Hall of Fame but some, including Towns, believed that Pollard's long-awaited election into the Hall spontaneously happened after the passing of influential figures who disapproved of his election.
As one looks to move forward into the future, one can't overlook the stories of the past.
"A lot of them are clueless about those types of things… a lot of them don't know who Jackie Robinson is," said Towns with a look of concern. "When we were forced to, when segregation was there, and I'm not saying segregation was good by any stretch of the imagination, but it forced you to learn about yourself, about your history and to be proud of yourself, and I think as integration took place, and our communities became more dissipated, all those things got diluted and weren't taught, and they never were talked about."
Fritz Pollard is only one of the many important but forgotten heroes in our history. His story is empowering to people of all ethnicities.
"Grandfather was a very interesting guy, he was an entrepreneur, a sports figure, and he was always kind of bigger than life," simply put by Towns.
Tune in to Comcast SportsNet tonight at 10:30 to hear the recounting tale of this African-American hero. Luke Stuckmeyer reports.

Arizona Diamondbacks
Broadcasting legend Joe Garagiola hangs up his microphone
There's no doubt the Arizona Diamondbacks have a different look than they did the last time the took the field in October of 2012.
Their 40-man roster this spring features 14 players that are new to the organization.
Of course, the changes aren't limited to those on the field. Steve Berthiaume and Bob Brenly will be in the D-backs' television booth this season, replacing Daron Sutton and Mark Grace. More change in the broadcast team came Wednesday afternoon when Hall of Famer Joe Garagiola, who spent 15 years as an analyst on D-backs broadcasts, officially announced his retirement.
"We're trying to figure out why he would retire, because he's still as good today as he was 57 years ago. But we figured it out and it's because there's an opening at The Vatican," D-backs CEO Derrick Hall joked at a Wednesday press conference at Salt River Fields at Talking Stick. "And there's only one guy that could be Pope, and that's (Joe) because you're already a saint."
Garagiola's storied broadcasting career began in 1955 after a nine-year Major League career wrapped up the previous season. He called St. Louis Cardinals games for seven seasons, New York Yankees games for three seasons and had a long stint at NBC, where he announced several World Series.
"I don't deserve a lot of things that have happened to me, but I remember Jack Benny saying he had arthritis — he didn't deserve that either," Garagiola joked. "You guys were great, you've made me part of your family."
Garagiola, who turned 87 earlier this month, quelled any talk that he's retiring because of health reasons.
"The only thing I want you all to know is, my health is okay — it's good," he said.
Despite his announcement, Garagiola said he'd pop into the broadcast booth from time to time.
"Just give me a call, and if I'm here, I'm gonna get there even if I'm not in the booth all the time if I see something and I don't quite understand it, I'll make it up and it'll sound like I understand it," he said. "Any time. Any time."
Garagiola's broadcasting reach went far beyond baseball. He appeared on NBC's The Today Show from 1967 to 1973 and served as a guest-host on the The Tonight Show for several years.

Summer is typically when most families travel on vacation, and more likely than not, you'll be traveling with a camera. Any photographer -- professional or amateur -- can use simple tips to help them take better vacation photos.
During the past decade, I've made a living teaching others how to take better photos at some of the most beautiful, exotic locations on earth. While the breathtaking landscapes of Antarctica or the fascinating creatures of Botswana help make for a pretty great photograph, you can make the best of any location or experience by following a few simple tips and techniques.
Here are my 10 tips for taking better vacation photos:
It's difficult to take a photograph without a camera, right? Don't forget that most smartphones have cameras, even if they aren't the best quality. Sometimes a quick-grab-shot to post on Facebook is enough to show family and friends what you're up to.
Let's face it, most of the people who view our photographs are friends and family, and they'll be much more interested in the places you visit if you include people they know in your photos. You don't have to do this for all of your images, but people will have a closer connection with your images if they include familiar faces.
The best light comes at the beginning and end of each day, and the first and last sunlight of the day is what we call the "magical hours." The warm light at this time is much more flattering than mid-day light, which tends to be blue.
Have you ever been stuck on a camera mode and had no idea how to undo something that you never intended to be there in the first place? You'll most likely need the camera manual to get you back to a standard setting, as modern cameras can be quite challenging with all of the various features and functionality. Most camera manuals are small books, so they don't take up too much space. Many camera manufacturers also have Adobe Acrobat PDF versions of the manuals, and you can view these on your digital eBook reader or smartphone.
Try zooming in, zooming out and shooting vertical, as well as horizontal. This will help you take different types of images. For example, photograph detail shots of flowers or anything small and portraits of people you both know and don't know. Try shooting wide open landscape images, as well as zooming in on smaller parts of the landscape for a more intimate feel.
Our brains are hard wired to look for simple shapes with our eyes. Try to do whatever you can to remove visually distracting elements in your scene. This is done by changing your shooting position and using your focal length (zooming in and out).
If you know more about what your subject is, you're more likely to take images that somehow illustrate something you have learned about it.
Always have enough battery power to get you through the day.
If you don't pay attention, all of your photographs will be taken from your eye level. If you squat down, lie down or perhaps gain a perspective from above, you might end up with images that have a better sense of space.
Elements that are on the edges of the frame will tend to act as magnets for your viewers' eyes. If you want your viewers to look to the edges, that's okay. If you don't, you should examine what's on the edges of the frame and recompose.

Favorite thing: Para Wirra national park has many lizards and they are very easy to spot in the warmer months because of their tendencies to warm themselves on the walking trails. Most scuttle under rocks as soon as they spot you but this one was a little curious and he stuck around for a picture or too.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - Two of Michael Waltrip Racing's sponsors are reviewing their relationships with the race team following the organization's attempt to manipulate the finish at Richmond.
NAPA says it has launched a review of its future partnership with MWR.
Also, Clint Bowyer sponsor 5-Hour Energy tweeted it is reviewing its sponsorship relations internally.
NASCAR penalized MWR for attempting to manipulate the finish to get Truex into the 12-driver Chase field. Truex was replaced in the Chase by Ryan Newman.

Thanks everyone. Like I said, I shoot a different XA2 and the XA4 quite regularly, and I know the results I should be getting. I've never had to mess with the 1.5 option. Batteries are fresh, the contacts and sensor are clean. To David's point, there were a few frames where I had to fiddle with the shutter button a bit to get it to engage.
In reviewing my shots, I'm noticing quite a few are underexposed -- not just scenes with a sky. These were all shot on fresh Superia 400, camera set to 400.
Attachment 60794Attachment 60795Attachment 60797Attachment 60798
I have an XA, XA2 and XA4. My XA2 is currently grounded because I would get occasionally OVER exposed frames..I've heard this can be due to shutter sticking.
I use the ISO setting as an exposure compensation on a large fraction of shots. I'm not afraid to crank it all the way over to 50 with 400 speed film. It's just the nature of auto-exposure cameras...the meter can easily be 3 stops off from what I want.
Have you used more than one roll in this camera? (just saying, it could be a problem with the film, the development, or even the ISo set wrong)
-OK, since you have more than one XA, the final answer is to compare them. Open the film back and try a couple of shots in different lighting. You should see the aperture and shutter speed change.
Compare that to one of your other cameras. My guess from the images is that you will see a noticeable difference.
I did shoot a second roll. Same film (Superia 400), but I actually shot this roll at 800 and pushed it a stop. This is something I do fairly regularly when I wanted a fast shutter. The attachment show a random sampling of frames from that roll.
Attachment 60830
I have one XA2 that always underexposes, except for flash shots - they come out perfectly.
I learned 2 things about this XA2
1) Use ONLY Silver-Oxide batteries. Cheap alkalines do not have the strength to hold the shutter open (electro-magnets)
2) Always set the film speed to 1/2 box speed. Meaning set it to 200 for 400 film, 100 for 200 film.
After this, my little XA2 works perfectly.
yes your shots do look underexposure even taking into account that the meter is supposed to be fooled with lots of sky. So yes I agree with you that your XA2 is underexposing. But if it's like the XA there are 2 metering system in the XA. One is only for the meter needle and another for control the actual exposure. Does the XA2 has the meter needle in viewfinder like that of the XA? If it does, does the shutter speed indicated seems right as compared to another camera or just with your experience?
My XA gives good exposures but the meter needle is wrong. If it were to expose like what the meter is saying then it's always overexposing.
"Does the XA2 has the meter needle in viewfinder like that of the XA?"
-no it has no exposure info.
I have both a XA2 and XA in my hands right now. The XA2 gives about the same shutter speed as the XA when set on f4. (It seems the XA2 prefers wide-open unless in really bright light)
It seems everyone agrees that your camera is under-exposing. Quite a bit from the look of it. Maybe 2 stops.

Nice stuff! Must have included some sleepless nights :)
[w]tech combines next generation technologies like full dynamic lighting, voxel based terrain and bullet physics, which are brought to you via a self-explanatory user interface. We are thinking in innovative ways to combine the available technologies and ideas to an edgeless package. Visit wtechportal.com to get more information about the newest features integrated into [w]tech!
Now it's done: The port to DirectX11 is completed and the integration of PolyVox has become usable.
Posted by [WuTz]! on Jul 19th, 2010
Many have asked: "Why DirectX10? Why not just 11?"
After I scrapped the DirextX9 engine I thought it would better to go from DirectX9 to 10 and then to 11. It's done: Porting [w]tech to DirectX11 is completed. Now some will ask: I don't have a DirectX11 card! Will [w]tech run on my PC?
Simple answer:
Find it out!
The truth is, that we haven't told you everything. :-). In fact, we ported the engine to DirectX11 before our last techdemo! (Download: Moddb.com)
With a shorter feature-set DirectX11 is also running on DirectX10 hardware. Even DirectX9 hardware is supported, as long as it is running on Windows Vista or Windows 7. But not of us, [w]tech likes to have a DirectX10 graphics card.
Are there new features thereby?
Not yet. None of us has a DirectX11 graphics card. Anyway we can use new features like the ComputeShaderCS4, by what tesselation can be created. But after the Port something else had a higher priority.
But first, what on earth is a "Voxel"??? The word "Voxel" is put together with the two words "Volumetric" and "Pixel". Because nothing else is a Voxel. A Pixel is a Point in a 2-dimensional picture. A Voxel is the same, but in the third dimension.
So, instead of just using a heightmap for the Terrain, we build the Terrain directly into a picture, a 3D-picture. Then this 3D-picture is surrounded with polygons by the PolyVox Library. This method makes many new options possible: You can build caves right into the engine! You don't have to (how many do it) build your cave as mesh in e.g. Blender and then import it as mesh. It's the same with rock peaks or even straight walls. Impossible with a Heightmap.
Besides the possibilities in the editor the gameplay gets an important new element: A fully destructible terrain. Grenade exploding? No black spot on the floor like in many other games, no, it makes a real hole into it!
But what happens exactly with all the "Voxels" and "polygons"? We simplify it and remove one dimension. Here is a 2D-version of a Voxel-volume:
PolyVox will, as you can see, wrap polygons around all Voxels, so we can render it.
In addition it should be said that with [w]tech we don't work with black-and-white "Voxel-pictures" anymore. Since the latest PolyVox-Update we are able to work with smoother Grayscale-volumes. This helps us to smooth the generated meshes quite good.
There is a better explanation (even if more complicated) from the author of the library, David Williams: Thermite3d.org
Don't forget to try his Voxel-Engine, Thermite3D: Thermite3d.org
Here is a video which shows the PolyVox-Feature in action:
Nice stuff! Must have included some sleepless nights :)
indeed :D
voxels look fun
voxels is good destruct-able thing
voxel is awesoem
Nice, now all your terrain will look like clay :D
Anyway, good work. I know how its hard to maintain an engine =]
Thank you! :) Not all will look like clay (Maybe some parts, who knows?) You can either turn smoothing of the voxels of to get a harder shape, or use a smaller brush to get the corners more corner-ish. Also we are on it to finish the smooth-layer system for the terrain. So you can paint grass or rock wherever you want! This is what we want to show in the next news.
Please include material maps and shaders ect. :D looking really good team
Already built in! Look at my comment to "nightz" for more information.
Wutz i've got an idea (if it is'nt already included in ur engine) combine voxels with fluid dynamics then you got voxel fluid simulation. :)
Others had this idea, too. There is also a thread about this in the PolyVox forum ( Thermite3d.org ) The main problem with this is that the mesh regeneration is a bit too slow for this. Though, it is fast enough to regenerate it when a bomb drops :)
Looking realy nice. Does voxel terrain mean that they can be adjusted in game, something like Perimeter or Red Faction?
I never played these games, but yes, you can adjust it ingame, just like you see in the editor.
It seems like your draw calls get quite high for bigger terrain..
I know it doesn't matter that much here as its all the same texture but if you have some others too it could create a problem later.
That's true. But this is only hte case for the editor where you have to modify the terrain in place. Ingame much of the terrain won't be destructable, su we can combine them into one big mesh.
For the destructable terrains we can simply use larger chunks. Since I added multithreading to the mesh generator this doesn't matter so much for just one regeneration.

Northwest Vista College honored Veterans Day on November 11 with an event attended by Alamo Colleges Chancellor Dr. Bruce Leslie and NVC President Dr. Ric Baser gave opening remarks. The event was sponsored by NVC's Vet-to-Vet program, the NVC Veterans Affairs office, NVC Staff Council, and Phi Theta Kappa. The event included NVC employee Luz Hernandez singing the National Anthem, and Math faculty, Vet to Vet advisor and veteran Dennis Gittinger speaking on the meaning of Veterans Day. Dennis shared the instant connection when one vet meets another--a connection that transcends differences in age, ethnicity, and socio-economic status. Vets who have been in combat have a certain credibility with each other that is impossible to duplicate. He shared his perceptions of the vets at NVC: The vets I meet at NVC are truly inspirational. They are in school, which means they are not dwelling on the past, but preparing for the future, working hard to develop the tools necessary to have that better life. Being in school means that they have hope. Isn't that true of all of our students? Without hope, we are lost. The event concluded with a lunch for the dozens in attendance.
U.S. Congressman Joaquin Castro came to the campus to recognize Northwest Vista College for receiving a $2.3 million individual federal Title V grant for Hispanic Serving Institutions from the U.S. Department of Education, Office of Postsecondary Education (OPE). This five-year grant in the amount of $2,343,984 is for "Project Math Paths," designed to improve NVC's three-year graduation rate and math completion by welcoming, advising, placing, and accelerating students through the math core and eliminating developmental math hours.
NVC Math faculty Anna Harwin stated at the event that Project Math Paths is already making strides locally and nationally where there are similar programs. She believes NVC will be able to change the math trajectory in the city. This fall, NVC moved 606 students from long-path high risk courses to lower-risk, shorter path courses. At the event, Representative Castro supported the need for this grant with his own observation that while he was in college, math was one of his least favorite subjects, and can be a setback for many students. "I want to say thank you for Project Math Paths and taking this creative and innovative approach that not only the Gates Foundation thinks is special, but obviously the federal government and the Department of Education."
Five Goals for Project Math Paths include:
1. Implement intrusive advising for all first time in college students through Vista Central - One Stop Shop;
2. Accelerate the developmental math sequence and advise into optimal college level math courses;
3. Maximize student success by dramatically increasing optimal math placement, including Math 1414, college algebra for STEM majors;
4. Reduce time needed and facilitate student enrollment through the creation of Vista Central - One Stop Shop with embedded support services to facilitate the enrollment process, monitor and advise student progress, and;
5. Increase student enrollment, retention and core math completion.
On Friday, November 13, faculty from NVC academic disciplines with high risk courses met in a charrette to identify approaches to addressing student success. Certified advisors were also included in the discussions. NVC has high risk classes in Accounting, Biology, Chemistry, Communications, English, INRW, Math, Physics, and SDEV and a total of high risk 20 courses in spring 2015.
A charrette is often used in a planning process to provide useful ideas and perspectives from concerned interest groups in a period of intense planning. The faculty teams used the planning time to:
· review data
· identify strategies
· define measures
· set a timeline for implementation
Teams began the review process by examining three years of student success data for each class. The teams were then asked to identify possible solutions and concerns that might be contributing to the lower success rates. Each discipline worked to identify one or two measurable strategies to address success that could be implemented for spring. For example, the physics instructors suggested mandatory supplemental instruction including study groups for Physics 2425 which is close to the 70% benchmark at 68.4% success. Biology instructors want to consider labeling the classes as high risk for student awareness and encouraging students to have completed 15 hours successfully prior to enrollment in the class. English 1301 instructors suggested using a faculty team to incorporate student outreach strategies for all faculty teaching in the spring. Adjunct faculty will be included in this initiative at the spring convocation to ensure universal adoption.
Each discipline will implement their strategies in the spring or in some cases for summer/fall implementation and analyze data for improvements in student success rates. NVC will be conducting a similar event for all faculty in the spring.

Ernie Sims and Thomas Howard are the first two OLB's taken...
Someone please tell me when there was an additional NCAA season where these guys were better on the field than DeMeco Ryans and Chad Greenway, because I missed it.
Man, I'm sick of the combine and pro days. Go watch some game film, not a track meet.

1. Greenway is white. Sims and Howrad are black just kidding I"m not racist just a little joke.
2. Ryans and Greenway have mad skill and Sims and Howard don't have as good.
3. Ryans and Greenway have been the most consistant LBs in the nation.
4. Track dont' mean crap. Like RJ39 said put game film in. Adrenaline really changes your way you play the game, seriously it makes you faster and you can do alot more stuff you wouldn't be able to do with no adrenaline.
5. The rest of my 4 reasons.

Draft the Fat Boy!!!
Great NFL teams of the past and present always have Fat Boys on their teams.
If Huff is gone at that point, (which it appears inevitable) then draft the Fat Boy!
In Football (as a spectator) here is nothing more amusing than a 300+ pound lineman do a little dance after he makes a game changing play.

Re: DraftSharks Mock Draft 1 Round
I agree with RamsFan16 & Ramsjackson. The combine and prodays are good for finding athlethes. What we need are football players and you find them during gametime.

Hi there,
My husband and I wanted to start doing some touring starting next summer (self-contained trips) but I'm at a loss at how to go about planning for this. I'm a huge planner and like all my ducks in a row as much as possible.
We'll have a Burley nomad plus panniers and we'll need be bringing a tent,sleeping bags etc. Is there any kind of checklist online or something that can help me sort this out??
Any book recommends on bike touring? works of encouragement?
Our 1st trip will be a long weekend trip to Elk Island National Park. Its about an hour drive from us so is it kinda realistic to think the bike ride will be about 3-4 hours??
I want this to go well because my husband, the skeptic, doesnt think a good trip/holiday cant involve a vehicle and I want to show him it can just be about the bikes.
If it goes well then we'll bike from Edmonton to Jasper for camping and then after that the skies the limit

What an AMAZING organization. Walk On Foundation got me a pediatric pulse oximeter for my daughter who was suffering from SVT. I was not in a financial situation to do it myself and they came to my rescue. It truly touched my heart that someone who had never met us helped me out to make my life easier in dealing with her illness. They are my Angels :)

Crimes against gay community highlightedComment on this story
Khayelitsha - This year has brought to the fore just how much danger and hate lesbians living in the townships still face every day, says activist and Free Gender founder Funeka Soldaat.
"It has been a bad year for gays and lesbians [despite] the beginning of democracy," Soldaat said. "This year we had the worse cases of shockingly brutal hate crimes in our communities, yet we are supposed to be free."
Soldaat was speaking at an event held at the Oliver Tambo community hall in Khayelitsha on Thursday to commemorate 16 Days of Activism for No Violence Against Women and Children, which runs from November 25 until December 10.
The global campaign is dedicated to ending gender-based violence.
Soldaat said that although the campaign aimed to fight gender-based violence, not enough was being done to highlight the plight of the LGBTI (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Intersex) community.
"Not enough noise is being made about hate crimes. Task teams formed by the government throughout the year are yet to come back to us with feedback," she said.
At the event, three mosaic pictures of victims killed in hate crimes, Ntsiki Tyatyeka, 21, Zoliswa Nkonyana, 19, and 23-year-old Phumeza Nkolonzi were unveiled and given to their families.
Tyatyeka's mother Nombasa, said her daughter's death was still "fresh in her heart" a year later. She sobbed uncontrollably when she was handed the picture of her daughter.
Since the beginning of the year, several lesbians from Nyanga, Khayelitsha and Kosovo have been assaulted or killed.
Last month, 19-year-old Sihle Sikoji was stabbed to death with a "minispear" in Samora Machel.
A group of lesbians from Khayelitsha, who asked not to be named, told the Cape Argus that since Sikoji's funeral two weeks ago, things had not "calmed down" in the area.
"It's getting worse and the scary thing is these guys know where we live. There is nothing stopping them from coming to our homes… we just have to wait to see who will be next," she said.
Helen Lamoela, DA spokeswoman for Women, Youth, Children and People with Disabilities, said there was an urgent need for sexuality based education campaigns in the townships.
"We need programmes that will address and teach communities about homosexuality," she said. - Cape Argus

Update on Hudson Yards and the Far West 30′s
Hudson Yards, a not yet official neighborhood which encompasses parts of the northern end of Chelsea and the southern end of Hell's Kitchen, is in the news again. Residents of Manhattan rental apartments in that still kind of nebulous neighborhood of the far west-30s are about to get a lot more company, it seems.
I know: I've written about this increasingly booming Manhattan neighborhood before. For example, I wrote when news of the extension of the 7-train line came through, but some New York City communities grow in spectacular spurts, and this area between 30th and 42nd Street, and 9th and 12th Avenues, has as much or more momentum right now than any other neighborhood in town.
Recently there were several items of good news for development and construction fans, including a record-setting $20 million gift from the Diller-von Furstenberg Family Foundation that seems to seal the deal on the completion of the third and final phase of the great High Line.
For example, the gigantic Hudson Yards project, spearheaded by Related Companies, envisioned as a plaza of sorts built on top of the West Side Yard and incorporating between 13 and 16 skyscrapers, for use as offices, retail space, and thousands of residential units, including plenty of new Manhattan rental apartments. Mayor Bloomberg has been promoting this part of town as the "one last frontier" of undeveloped real estate in Manhattan, and believes it could be a new Midtown West in it's own right.
According to some estimates, this project alone could provide up to 26 million square feet of new office space, 20,000 units of new housing, and two million square feet of retail space, a staggering set of numbers that are almost enough to qualify the Hudson Yards project as a new neighborhood all on its own.
Of course, the implications of this enormous influx of people to the community, both residents and workers, are challenging to say the least (to name just one: where are all the kids going to go to school?) but one thing's certain: if the Hudson Yards project does indeed start construction soon, and in earnest, Hell's Kitchen and Chelsea rental apartment residents will have to rethink their neighborhood.
But the most exciting news for current residents of the area, or for those of you looking to move into this neighborhood in the making: it looks like the third and final phase of the hugely successful High Line park will, in fact, be built, thanks in large measure to a jaw-dropping $20 million gift from the Diller-von Furstenberg Family Foundation, the philanthropic organization of that NYC super-couple, media mogul Barry Diller and fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg.
The third phase of the High Line runs from 30th Street and 10th Avenue (the current northern terminus) over to 12th Avenue, and then up to 35th Street… right alongside where the Hudson Yards project is envisioned. The $20 million gift is the largest ever made to any city park, and puts the Friends of the High Line over the halfway mark of the $150 million needed to complete the final phase. This is all excellent news for everyone, of course, but especially for residents considering the Hudson Yards area as a place to live.
Finally, further down near the other end of the High Line on 19th Street, HFZ Capital announced that it will begin construction on a mixed-use, two-towered complex that will straddle the park–one tower to the east, one to the west–and will contain some 90,000 square feet of residential space soaring on either side of the High Line, and an additional 10,000 square feet of retail space on the street level below.

The Wrinkles On Raisins Can Teach Us A Lot About Fingerprints

Patch It With Tape!
The Brazilian Rosewood Match N Patch Designer Duct Tape is perfect for craft, decor, and wood repair. Works great on floor and furniture laminates which are notoriously difficult to repair since you can't sand them if you use a putty.
It will hide scratches on damaged speakers, doors, and furniture. It is perfect for hiding cables and wires too.
We started with a gorgeous piece of guitar making wood, hand-finished it, then made a seamless pattern out of it. The matte finish and smoothly pebbled textured of Platypus makes this one of our best-looking tapes. If you're looking for a dark brown with warm tones for your craft, you've found it.

WIMBLEDON, England -- None of his 41 previous grass-court opponents had managed to find a way to solve Roger Federer's game on his favorite surface, leaving it to the elements to step into the breach on a wet opening day at Wimbledon.
Federer got through just 35 minutes of his first-round match Monday against France's Richard Gasquet, leading 6-3, 1-2, when a soft mist began falling on a cool, overcast day.
A Federer win would push him past Bjorn Borg to establish a new Open era record for consecutive grass-court victories with 42 straight. His last loss on grass came here in 2002 at the hands of Croatian qualifier Mario Ancic, now the No. 7 seed and a possible quarterfinal opponent for the world No. 1.
The precipitation increased in volume throughout the afternoon, turning the All England Lawn Tennis Club into a rain-slickened shopping mall, one sure to fill the coffers of the club but forcing many to go to Plan B, with so little tennis played on the first day of The Championships.
All told, only 18 of 64 scheduled matches got under way before play finally was abandoned just after 7:20 p.m. local time. The 46 other first-round matches were postponed but Tuesday's forecast also calls for showers, which will make it difficult to get in a full complement of matches.
It was with days like these in mind that the tournament committee hatched plans to construct a retractable roof over Centre Court, scheduled to be completed in time for the 2009 Championships.
That process will begin in earnest shortly after this year's tournament is finished, as the existing Centre Court roof will be removed and the east side of the arena demolished. That will mean no roof at all for the 2007 Championships, but even southeast England enjoys a respite from the wet stuff once in a while. One can only hope that late June-early July of next year is just such an occasion.
Phase two of the project will see the installation of the fixed element of the new roof, slated to be in place for the 2008 tournament.
The third and final phase, to take place between the 2008 and 2009 tournaments, is scheduled to see the completion of the retractable, translucent roof; and the installation of all-new, wider seats and what the club calls "climate-control," which sounds suspiciously like air-conditioning. Or, on a 57-degree day like today, central heating.
Though the AELTC has not released any dollar figures, the project is likely to cost several hundred million dollars and be fully operational in time for the 2009 tournament. Capacity on Centre Court will be 15,000 in lieu of the present 13,798.
It all can't come soon enough for water-logged players, fans, media and tournament officials, with Wimbledon interrupted by rain for the 11th consecutive year. But Wimbledon is the only Grand Slam tournament with an off-day on the middle Sunday, so officials are used to facing thorny scheduling issues when the weather comes calling.
England's Tim Henman, competing in his 13th Wimbledon, is as used to the vagaries of English summer weather as any player. He told the Associated Press, "I've had my share of rain delays over the years. It's just a question of being patient and making sure you're ready to go. It can clear up so quickly and 10, 15 minutes later, you've got to be out on court."
Somehow, though, every year the matches get squeezed in, the strawberries and Pimms get consumed and most everyone goes home happy. Federer certainly hopes that's the case for the fourth consecutive year -- that is, if the London skies and the state of his game permit.

text: Apple unveils its 'tablet' -- the Apple iPad Technology 27 January 10 by Wired.co.uk Staff Apple Report by Nate Lanxon and Katie Scott"Apple has taken the middle ground, but ground not walked upon before," claimed Steve Jobs as his company launched one of the most anticipated products in years.The rumours about the launch of a tablet-style device from Apple have been circulating the web since 2004 when, according to Gizmodo, Apple filed a patent for a European design trademark on a device that looked like "an iBook screen minus the body of the computer."However, this evening, at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco, Steve Jobs was finally able to unveil the iPad -- the announcement for which, he was overhead telling colleagues just days ago, would be "the most important thing I've ever done."With only a short preamble, Jobs stated: "Everyone uses a laptop and/or a smartphone. The question has arisen lately: Is there room for a third category device in the middle?" Apple believed so.But it set itself the task of creating a device that is "better than the laptop and better than the smart phone." A specification was set for a device that will "do browsing, email, photos, video, music, games and e-books," he said, but faster and better than all of the devices out there.On first glance, the iPad -- which should be on sale in the UK by March -- looks like an oversized iPhone, but houses a 9.7-inch LCD display. However, continuing the mantra that thin is best, it has a 0.5-inch girth and weighs 700g. It's "thinner and lighter than any netbook" claimed a svelte and proud Jobs.The device runs on a 1GHz CPU which Apple developed in-house, after acquiring chip-maker PA Semi some time ago. This chip, claims Jobs, delivers "the best browsing experience you've ever had", and showed how the screen's multi-touch sensors and accelerometer play their parts. And, as expected, Apple was keen to show off how these specs affect the ability to view newspaper and magazine pages online. Cue Martin Nisenholtz from the New York Times who gushed that the iPad "captures the essence of a newspaper, but it's so much more".There was also news for bookworms. One of the most important features of the iPad will be iBooks -- Apple's own digital, colour e-book application, which uses the open-standard ePub file format. This means books you've already purchased from the likes of Waterstones.com will be compatible with the iPad. The company has signed deals with five major partners, including Penguin, HarperCollins and Macmillan, to bring digital bookshelves to the device, and of course, there's a new iBookstore for buying books.The interface looks just like the wireless iTunes Store, only larger. And instead of DVD covers, it has book covers. With your tome downloaded wirelessly, you're presented with a new book-like interface for reading, complete with pretend digital pages to flip and a choice of fonts and font sizes.Another major feature for the iPad is iWork. On Mac computers, this is Apple's alternative to Microsoft Office. Apple has developed a new version of iWork specifically designed for the iPad's screen and interface, and it includes the major apps: Pages, Keynote and Numbers. These will cost $10 (about £6.20) each.The iPad comes with up to 64GB of flash memory, supports all existing iPhone applications, supports 802.11n Wi-Fi, stereo Bluetooth and GPS. A version with 3G wireless will also be available -- for use on any network (hooray!) but with a new, smaller type of SIM card (boo!) -- and not outside of the US until June 2010.Google Maps, YouTube and a whole host of Apple's own productivity apps -- calendars, iTunes, Mail, Safari etc -- have been re-written to take advantage of the device's TFT display.And the cost of the iPad itself? It'll start at $499 (about £309), and it'll be on sale within the next two months, worldwide. Honestly, we're stunned it's that low. Are you? And will you be buying? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.UPDATE: Apple has announced on its UK website that the Wi-Fi model will arrive in the UK in late March while the 3G version will start shipping in April. There is no confirmation on price though as yet.See also:How the iPad will revolutionise the internetTen things missing from the iPadCan Apple's iPad save the media after all?Analysis: Apple plays it safe with iPad gamingiPad finally makes family computing invisible Edited by Katie Scott Comments I like it, but I am a bit thick to be fair. Mark Jan 28th 2010 ...if the Wired UK and US magazines become available on subscription, I'll buy one. 45 minute commute everyday, is ideal for the iPad. In fact I'll buy one anyway. iPhone screen is too small for enjoying Fringe. darren Jan 28th 2010 ...if the Wired UK and US magazines become available on subscription, I'll buy one. 45 minute commute everyday, is ideal for the iPad. In fact I'll buy one anyway. iPhone screen is too small for enjoying Fringe. darren Jan 28th 2010 Speaking purely from a design point of view, many of the pre-launch CGI fakes were much sexier. No-one is a greater fan of Jonathan Ives than I, but I'm rather disturbed by the thick black frame around the screen. It gives it the feel of a digital photo frame you can use websites on rather than a slick, tech Object of Desire. MDKtm Jan 28th 2010 After reading all about it, the "IPad" just doesnt sound that special. Im not going to be waisting my money on it. There are plenty of other tablets out there. Mark Newland Jan 28th 2010 I think we need to look beyond our own tech savvy requirements for a device such as this, and look at the wider applications.This device really is all most people actually need to meet their requirements, apart from maybe heavy media storage. Small enough to be portable, large enough to be truly functional. We've been sold the lie that as average consumers we have to keep up with Moore's Law, but it just isn't necessary for most personal or business applications. I can see this being the only thing a child or student needs to take to school, replacing textbook, exercise book and library. I can see it replacing my keyboard, mouse, and wacom tablet or other input device. Or as the interface for new musical instruments. And any salesman who suffers carrying around a laptop case would surely prefer this form factor. And... well, just see what apps turn up. OK, it doesn't have a webcam, it doesn't have usb, it doesn't have an OLED screen, it isn't free. Those things will come, for now this is proof of concept. It's the form factor, plus the multi-touch capabilities and other sensors, overall it's the possibilities available that make this device so interesting. This is NOT an e-book reader. Somebody did that already. This is what Apple do best: They give us what we've all been waiting for. We just don't know it yet. Dexter Hartley Jan 28th 2010 "It's $499 but you're tied to a two year contract and apple don't advertise how much that is going to cost you per month."You're not tied to a 'two year' contract, Jobs clearly stated that you can cancel the 3G service at any time. He also said it will either cost $15 for 250mb data or $30 for unlimited data.Had you gotten bored by the time he got to that part of the presentation? ;) Steve Jan 28th 2010 Noel - "I'm surprised it doesn't have a camera, I thought "augmented reality" would be one of the things pioneered by this device."Yes, that's interesting, and possibly about trying not to cannibalise the iPhone - I thought that at some point in the future you'll have a device with front and back-mounted cameras which is designed for AR and also for videoconferencing and conversation over 4G voice/data applications - I wondered about that when the Nano got a camera and the world _didn't_ get a tablet. If you are confident of spending most of your time able to access a strong data connection, you only really need a phone for emergencies. and you don't need that phone to do anything except call numbers - like a cheap Casio, a £10 PAYG phone could be a geek status symbol, because it means you've pushed your calendar management, email, chat etc up to a more awesome device.Now I've seen the thing, though, I think I've changed position on that slightly. Just as the iPad has a removable keyboard (and I hope also syncs with the Apple Wireless keyboard by bluetooth, since the only reason not to do that I can see is to sell dock-connector keyboards), you could have a floating camera, which handshook with the iPad using bluetooth or local wifi - so you could point it at yourself for iChat/Skype etc and attach it to the tablet or to your hand/lapel/whatever to use AR applications over 3G. But getting enough resolution over AT&T wireless to be consistently useful for AR might be a pinch, and a dock connector camera would look... unpleasantly medical. Daniel Nye Griffiths Jan 28th 2010 the fabulous new iYawn KC Jan 28th 2010 It has been over hped however it is still fantastic and I must have one asap. Tony Hill Jan 28th 2010 I'm stunned that a serious publication can be so naive. So you've just gone on xe.com and converted $500 into sterling or what? VAT is another 17.5%, and apple products retail at around 10% higher in the UK as a general rule. Base model for this shocker is likely to be around £400. Not so tempting now, is it Vino Jan 28th 2010 I too am a massive Apple fan. I have to say that I agree with most of the comments written here. This really is just a big iPod touch with a bit more capability, but not much.When the rumours about this device 'hotted up' and it looked like a reality I could barely wait. I hoped that it would be a tablet Mac Book Pro. Something I could install DVD studio and FCP etc. onto and take on trips. Apps are all very well but seriously limited in their capability.It is a seriously sexy gadget and, as such, I am curiously drawn to it. I doubt, however, I will buy one as a 13" MBP (though twice as expensive as the top iTab) is far more than twice as useful.Alnother thing - the whole concept of E-Books revolved around the 'Black Ink' technology. I love my Sony E-Reader. I use it for recreational reading, for work and for University assignments. It is invaluable. Largely because it isn't backlit; therefore it is easy to read for extended periods. Reading the iPad will be like reading a computer screen. Tiring on the eyes after a short period of time. Whatever happened to the rumour about a technology which would allow both types of screen to co-exist in the one display? Lee Taylor Jan 29th 2010 if the lowest model retail here at anything less than £400(399), I'll eat my hat. oh yea?!

LANSING -- Sen. Roger Kahn raised nearly $177,000 for his campaign committee in 2011, more than any other Michigan senator.
Unlike most of his colleagues, Kahn, a Republican, has no campaign looming in his Saginaw area district.
Kahn, the influential chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee, was re-elected to a second term in 2010 and is prevented by the state's term-limits law from seeking re-election in 2014. ...

Star Trek songs
I'm scouring the internet and Youtube for all the songs I can find based on Star Trek. Fansongs and parodies, I suppose. :D I'm compiling a list, and other people might want to see a list as well. Who knows some? [Please mark songs that are explicit as so when you're listing them. :rolleyes:]

Oh gee, I hope I didn't cover all of them already. :lol:
[Psst. Robert Picardo is epic. :p]
Any songs you know to add to the list?
Re: Star Trek songs
This is from the mid-eighties and was actually a chart-topper if memory serves. Hadn't heard it in years before today. Its brilliance is in direct proportion to its utter dreadfulness. :)
Re: Star Trek songs
That's terrible! But I suppose I *was* asking for all of them... :guffaw:
Re: Star Trek songs
This isn't a song exactly, it's a combination of TNG and Dallas (as in, TNG crew and Dallas theme music).
Re: Star Trek songs
That works! :D
Which reminds me, there was also a video of an alternate intro to Voyager with the Monk theme song... :lol:
Re: Star Trek songs
Well, if mash-ups are allowed...
Re: Star Trek songs
Anyone ever check out the Klingon death-metal band Stovokor?
Re: Star Trek songs
That A-Team was funny. I liked Spock and Sulu in that one :)
Re: Star Trek songs
And let's not forget all the Star Trek themed bands (including my own :-p) that they were featured along side Stovokor in the "Trekkies 2" documentary.
Just do a google search for No Kill I (the Trek Themed punk rock band) and their "spin-offs" No Kill I: The Next Generation and No Kill I: Deep Space Nine.
Re: Star Trek songs
I think the world needs a Breen doom-stoner metal band. That would be the shit.
Re: Star Trek songs
"Banned from Argo", of course!
Two versions on Youtube:
Re: Star Trek songs
Re: Star Trek songs
Re: Star Trek songs
That'd be a lot of Trek themed bands.... not that I'm complaining. :D
Re: Star Trek songs
the great luke shi did 10 start trek songs plus you might be a trekie riffs as well

LONDON (AP) — Serena Williams knew she had to do something — fast.
Down 3-1 to a qualifier on the first day of Wimbledon, the top-ranked player was not about to drop the opening set as she did four times during her run to the French Open title.
"She came out so fast, I was like, `Oh my God, if I don't start I'm going to be down a set.' And I was tired of being down a set," Williams said.
So the five-time champion got to work, winning 11 of 13 games to beat 113th-ranked Margarita Gasparyan of Russia 6-4, 6-1 on Monday to extend her Grand Slam winning streak to 22 matches as she pursues a fourth straight major title.
Things were more...

In the Feb. 26 issue, I really enjoyed the article "A Grave Discovery" (Living, page 1D) about the fatal argument and shooting between two newspaper owners in Visalia during the Civil War era.
Their political opinions finally came to a head from which there was apparently no going back.
I then read, and also enjoyed, the Point/Counterpoint article with the political opinions from Tom Fife and Joe Altschule.
I have always enjoyed their articles, but it appears that Joe was rougher than usual on Tom, which, in my opinion, bordered on insults and character assassination.
Hopefully, this won't be a case of history repeating itself.
Easy does it, Joe.

Love It or Hate It? LeAnn Rimes' CMA Look
Love It or Hate It? LeAnn Rimes' CMA Look
by Beauty
Like us on Facebook
It's been so long since LeAnn Rimes first burst onto the country scene, but at the Country Music Awards, she showed that she's no longer a teenage crooner. She's all grown up, wearing soft hues (I can't wait to see what Fab thinks about that dress) and lovely curls. Not to be nitpicky, but I would love to see her brows just a shade lighter--but really, with that kind of smile, I'm sure nobody's looking at her brows.
LeAnn Rimes

Undecided only because she alway's looks like this , I think..
hmr2505 8 years
now this is sad. this is a girl who i know can look stunning. whoever put THIS look together needs to be fired because it does her NO justice.
taffetacupcakes 8 years
I said undecided because the look is okay, but I swear I've seen her look exactly like that picture at least 5 times before.
FutureMrsDickson 8 years
i like leAnn rimes, but her eyebrows need to be lighter, or thinner, or something. with the way they are, she looks like Oscar the grouch, and that all i can think of.
LovinLivin 8 years
She needs some color too much of the nude color is boring, no excitement. I mean maybe that dress in a pale shade of green or blue with some more color in her eyes might have made her sparkle. She is a pretty girl and she could have looked beautiful.
brookesmom 8 years
What a beautiful smile. And I love her hair. I agree, the brow make-up is a bit dark.
JaimeLeah526 8 years
The color is gorgeous on her but I think there is just too much of one color. She needs either a dark or bright color on her eyes to break up the peach. This is a great summer look especially for daytime.
Angiebaby 8 years
I think her face and hair are cute but I'm not so sure about the dress!
solstice 8 years
She looks natural and I love that she doesn't feel the need to be naked. Current pop-hos...take notes.
nylorac 8 years
her forehead looks a bit too rosy...
nancita 8 years
I just think LeAnn Rimes is beautiful, and I love that she has a very understated look that is — let's face it — pretty rare in country music. This makeup lets her eyes and smile really shine.
leahlarocco 8 years
who cares, the girl can sing.
mcpro26 8 years
Eyebrows to dark but other wise she keeps looking better the older she gets.
bubblebutt84 8 years
Ive never really been into her look. I think its her eyebrows that turn me away.
Lovely_1 8 years
I like her make-up, but I don't think I'm feeling the brows and her hair...
emalove 8 years
The dress washes her out! Same color as her skintone. Blech.
SugarFreak 8 years
I normally love the natural look, but here she looks too washed out. Some more color would have made it all come together nicely.
caitlinp86 8 years
Her hair is too flat against her head at the top, I hate it! She could be really stunning I think, but she just looks too plain. She needs to do something daring. I'd like to see her in some colour, because I think she's really sweet. She's selling herself short.
steen 8 years
Wow, she's lost a lot of weight!
aimeeb 8 years
A shade lighter on the brows but overall she looks good.
bloodredrose 8 years
I dunno, I think her teeth and brows are fine - she has a great smile, and that can make up for a multitude of sins. The only negative I see is the overall impression that she's just a little too ... orange.
audreystar 8 years
well leann had a complete makeover years ago and got her teeth capped. which i notice everytime i look at her. they are way too obvious. her teeth were so little before that it looks really weird. and her brows are always too dark. i guess the theme with her every time i see her is she just looks odd. :?
lala788 8 years
i like her hair like that and makeup but I'm not sure about her eyebrows
PrincessTracy 8 years
she definately could have done better..that dress does nothing for her...it blends with her skin! It looks like she's wearing a black bra and her face is shiny...

About our Goalrilla Basketball Systems
Every Goalrilla System – PLAYS LIKE AN ARENA SYSTEM, WITHSTANDS THE ELEMENTS, AND CAN BE RELOCATED TO A NEW HOME. How does Goalrilla achieve this in each and every one of its basketball systems? We integrate the same advanced technology in every Goalrilla. No other system on the planet can match Goalrilla's unique engineering. Below are the key features that every Goalrilla basketball unit has in common. At Goalrilla, from top to bottom, we never compromise when we're building THE TOUGHEST BASKETBALL SYSTEMS ON THE PLANET.
All Hoops are Adjustable
All Goalrilla Basketball Hoops are adjustable from 7' 6" to 10". The crank is very easy to turn, even 4 year old little ones can turn it - makes mom really happy.
Lifetime Warranty
Goalrilla offers a Lifetime Warranty on all structural components of your Goalrilla Basketball Goal. It is guaranteed to be free of defects in material and workmanship for the duration of ownership by the original customer.
What is the Goalrilla Direct Connect (DC Series)?
1) The DC Series is "BEST" in the Goalrilla Lineup. (Economy / Good / Better / Best)
2) Unlike other adjustable basketball goals which rely on the board and board frame to absorb vertical forces during play and causes stress to be applied to the glass, all vertical forces on the Goalrilla DC Series are transferred via a DIRECT CONNECTION to a 4" steel beam – completely bypassing the backboard and its frame. It's Goalrilla tough – beyond the strength needed for the most brutal play.
3) Look behind the glass and you will notice a "Clear View", (not a H-frame) that holds the backboard in place.
4) Choose the DC 72 E1: 72" x 42" Backboard; 1/2" thick tempered glass; 6" x 8" pole; 90 degree EZ Steel handle. Rated for High School, NCAA or NBA play.
Professional Installation
Woodplay offers Delivery & Installation on all Goalrilla products within the state of Florida. From Goalrilla Basketball Goals to Sports Trainers.
- Basketball installation is a 2 day install. On the first day, we dig the hole, pour the concrete, set the j-bolts in place and install the plate. We stop. After the concrete footer has dried, we come back and mount the basketball goal to the footer. You can play right away!
- Sports Trainers are installed in one day, on time, every time.
Professional Relocation
Woodplay offers professional relocation of your basketball goal. Simply order a new Ground Anchor and we will install it at the new house, take the hoop down from the old house and re-install it at your new house.

Jim Johnson, 4th Degree Black Belt and owner of Muhlenberg County Tae Kwon Do Studio in Central City told SurfKY that six months ago, at the last tournament at South East University in New Albany, IN, he asked Grand Master Young Sik Choi if he would consider Central City as a possible site for a tournament and he said he would.
"I have been in Tae Kwon Do for over 40 years and we usually have to travel hundreds of miles to compete. Due to the fact that the Central City Convention Center is an amazing facility and willing to house this event, we are hosting this multi-state event here in Muhlenberg County," said Johnson. Johnson went on to say that Grandmaster Choi is a 9th Degree Black Belt and is charge of this event. Grandmaster Choi is the President and founder of Traditional Tae Kwon Do Chung Do Association, which is headquartered in Louisville, KY. Grandmaster Choi also owns and operates the Louisville Tae Kwon Do School.
Tammy Piper, Director of the Central City Convention Center, said that the center is expecting a record event crowd. "We are lucky to be chosen for this event. We are making preparations for their hotel stay and dining experiences," Piper said. Friday night will be a Black Belt testing, which will be open to the public. On Saturday morning the tournament will begin at 9:00 a.m.
For anyone thinking they may want to join Tae Kwon Do, whether they be students, parents or even grandparents, this will be the perfect time to watch the action! To read more about Tae Kwon Do and Grandmaster Choi, click here http://www.traditionaltkd.com/
Tickets for the tournament are $6.00 at the door.
