I have always doen my long runs on empty and there is an article in the July issue of Runner's World. If I remember correctly it says it trains the muscle to burn more fat and helps boost the capcity to store carbs
Went to the local track to meet my wife and father-in-law this afternoon. We walked a mile together, then they walked and I ran 3 miles in 23:20. And my daughter is in her third week of C25k training. This is getting fun.
Snerb, My family and I aren't all running in the same race yet, but I like this family thing. Go kick that 5k's butt, and have fun running with your son and his girlfriend. Also, as for my first HM this spring, I cramped up on the last 1/2 mile or so and had to walk a little to try to shake it off. My knees aren't good (21 years firefighting) but they made it. What WAS a little hard to take, and I didn't train/research very well for this, was the depleted energy. My son looked at me after the race and said I looked feeble. I didn't use any shots or beans or bars or Gatorade or anything during the race. I had an Energy bar and some water before and a couple cups of water during the race. That was it. After the race I ate a bagel and an apple before heading home. I felt kind of woozy a few times during the day. I hydrated well, but wasn't sure about eating -- how much, how much at a time, what kinds of foods, etc. I've read up a little more on this and I would suggest you do, too, and try to find out what will work best for you.
Lenz.... That is the stretching I was told to do before running - dynamic - also leg swings. I was told to do the static stretching (touch your toes and hold, cross legs and touch the toes, etc.) after the run.
az14.... A local bicycle group had a deer run in between the group a couple years ago and took out one of the guys pretty seriously. He was hurt badly but recovered. And that was on a bike!!! Prayers are going out to your friend.
Dtothe2nd.... I agree with Lenz. My training has been to run easy on the day before a short race - 5k. Run easy two days before a longer race - 10k and HM. Maybe even run easy three days before a HM, and rest for two days, depending on how hard your training has been. Here's a different idea from a race blogger here in Maine, discussing running/warming up before your race:
"Another strategy, though, is to not wait until right before the race to do your warm up. Instead, you should go out for a mile or three when you first wake up and before you head to the race to begin with.
How much you run first thing in the morning depends upon your level of fitness and the race you are preparing for. If you are racing in the evening, then this advice can still apply, but it will not be exactly the same thing unless you run just a few hours before the race.
Running first thing in the morning will wake your muscles up and prime them. Your blood will be flowing a little easier and a little earlier, and you will feel peppier after you get to the race. The car ride and standing in line to register will not bother you quite as much. Your digestion will get moving a little earlier as well, especially if you do the run before breakfast.
I used to wake up early to get a short run in before a race on a regular basis in college before cross country meets, especially if we stayed in a hotel the night before the race. This practice was also encouraged by the coach of my first team that I joined after college. I always raced well and enjoyed the experience when I did it, but I will admit that for the past few years getting up that extra half hour to an hour early just never seemed to happen. Which is actually quite funny coming from somebody who has no trouble getting up at 4:30 am when he has to.
If you do decide to give a first thing in the morning run a try before your race, then be sure that you still do your normal warm up before the race itself. This is not a replacement for your normal warm up, it is a supplement to it that helps get you ready for the run earlier in the day."
I think the work out would have to be fairly intense and for a real long period of time to start burning muscle.
In order of this to happen body fat has to be re-converted back into glycogen. When this happens the sweat from the body will smell like urine --- this is ketosis.
Ketosis is not a bad thing. A prolonged period of ketosis will eventually indicate that the body is eating its own muscle --- but not during the period of time that you are working out.
The best thing that can happen is a little fat was burned. Refueling after the run will bring your glygogen levels into balance.
I've taken to running in the morning before breakfast without any ill effects. It actually sets my day up very nicely.
Stayed out too late last night and didn't get up to run/walk this morning. So I hit the treadmill on my break and did 3.3 miles in 45 minutes walking. (of course I ended up on a broken treadmill, the incline did not work. boo)
I want to do another walk tomorrow. And then start running again on Monday.

Went to the local college clean out garage sale today. Stood in line for 1 1/2 hours for the doors to open, so I could see what they had for bikes. Doors opened, I went in, no bikes. Agghhhhhhhhh.
Oh well, it was a beautiful morning, and I got in an 8.14 mile run in 1:08:20.
There are many articles in Active.com that really are helpful. I've saved many in a folder for reference. Regarding the burning of fat/muscle, there was a good nutrition piece this winter having to do with carb loading:
Glycogen is the main source of energy for long endurance runs. Carbohydrates are stored as glycogen in the liver and in the muscles. Your body can store about 2000 calories worth of glycogen. That's enough calories to provide energy for about 18 miles of running. Once this supply is depleted, the body starts to burn fat. Sounds like a good back-up plan, but the problem is that the body takes longer to metabolize fat for energy.
Ever hear of "hitting the wall"? That's when a runner's body shuts down mentally and physically. The cause is often from depleted carb stores. There's just nothing left in the tank; hence the importance of fully stocked glycogen stores before the race. It's also important to keep these stores refueled during the race by drinking sports drink and/or ingesting other quick carbs such as energy gels, chews, or beans about every 30 to 45 minutes during the race.
Back to carb-loading…past thinking had runners ingesting lots of carbs the entire last week of the taper. I've found that the last three days prior to the race is plenty of time to make sure you're fueled up for the big day.
During this three day-period before race day, your carbohydrate intake should increase to 70 to 80 percent of your total daily caloric intake. That doesn't mean you're taking in more calories, it just means that of the calories you're taking in, 70 to 80 percent need to be comprised of carbs.
Not all carbs are alike, Knowing the differences and eating the right kinds at the right time during the carb-loading phase can make a huge difference. Complex carbs are comprised of unrefined whole grain foods such as whole grain breads, legumes, brown rice, and whole grain pasta. Simple carbs are foods made of refined and/or processed grains such as white bread, regular pasta, white rice, packaged cookies, cakes, and doughnuts. Fruits are technically simple carbs too, but they're very nutrient dense and I would never put them in the same category as a doughnut. Keep in mind that eating a banana will provide quick energy because your body will process it very quickly, while a low-fat bran muffin will sustain your energy needs a lot longer.
Now that you know the different types of carbs, you need to know when to eat them.
Day 1: The first day of the carb-load should consist mainly of complex carbs (i.e., whole grain breads and whole wheat or whole grain pasta). By loading up on complex carbs the first day, you have time for them to be processed and voided well before race day.
Day 2: Taper off the complex carbs and switch over to simple carbs. Be careful though. Don't load up on tons of fruit and the like, if you're not used to eating lots of fruit. Also avoid loading up on simple carbs that contain a lot of saturated fat (cookies, doughnuts, pastries). The extra fat will slow down digestion and make you feel sluggish.
Day 3: Continue with the simple carbs. Eat your last major meal 12 to 15 hours prior to the race. This meal should be comprised of easily digestible foods that will pass through your system before the race. This is the time many runners turn to a big plate of pasta. Avoid heavy cream sauces and stick with basic marinara sauce.
FYI: Each gram of carbs can store 3 grams of water. So, to make sure you get complete carb storage, drink four to eight glasses of water each day. You may gain a pound or two during this carb-loading phase, but most of this extra weight is water and can actually help you stay well-hydrated during the race. And don't worry, you'll sweat out those extra "water pounds" during the race.
Tip: Practice make perfect. Eating before a race can be a tricky thing. Test different foods for your carb-loading phase well before race day. Pick one of your longest training runs and pretend it's "race day." Try a mini-carb-loading phase before this run. This will give you the opportunity to see how long different foods take to pass and which ones to avoid because they "hang around" too long.
Note: Carb-loading can also affect your blood sugar levels. Diabetics and others with specific health problems should consult with their doctors and/or a registered dietitian about the best foods to eat during their carb-loading phase, especially if it's your first experience with carb-loading.
All of my morning runs are fasted, because I don't have enough time to wait for food to settle before I run, since I run before work. I haven't had any problems doing 5 miles fasted. For both of my races I've gotten up early and eaten a bagel with pb two hours before the race.
Ran my first 8k today, and only my second race ever (last week's 5k being my first). It was great, and for a great cause, the local children's hospital. I pulled a 41:34, 8:22min/mi. I'm pretty happy, finished 214th out of 1243.. I think I could have done better if I had started farther up in the pack. I took almost two miles for the crowd to thin out enough that I wasn't dodging people. I'm gonna stick to five miles 4-5 days a week for a few weeks, maybe add a long run on Saturdays, and then look at racing another 5k in July.

Did a long run today of 4 miles. I felt incredible!! Ran it in 42:15, which is over 4:00 better than my last 4 mile run! I didn't feel like I was trying to push it either. All this training is def paying off!! Next week is going to be a true test....2 miles Tues, 3 miles Weds, 2 miles Fri and long run of 7 miles Sat. Sheesh! I haven't run anywhere near that much since I started!!

CKLindsay - Good to hear from you, and hope your i.d. issues are over with.
I ran a 5 mile trail club race today. 39:58 was only good for 5th in 45-49 males. Wow, some heavy competition today! It was a real good race for me; probably the smartest race I've ever run. I put on a kick with 3/4 mile to go and passed 2 guys, but I had to walk 30 seconds a half mile later. The last mile of the course was basically uphill. After I managed my breathing a bit I kicked again and finished strong on the uphill. I LOVE hills. I have to, living where I do! That's my second race in 3 days, and my third in three weeks. I may do an easy three tomorrow, but it's been a tough week for only 15 miles total.
I also do my morning runs fasted; up to about 1 hour. Like others, I just don't have time to digest before a 5 am run.I still have more body fat than I'd like, so I don't think I'm burning muscle tissue. But only up to an hour or so. After that comes the wall.
Run free!
7.15 miles in 1:15. Almost to 90 degrees today. But it's Saturday, and dagnabbit I wanted to run the River Park trail in Chicago. I'm glad that one of the connecting parks had one of those children's waterparks with a variety of sprays to walk through. Don't think I could have made it that far without soaking my head. I hydrated as often as possible.
Don't worry, there's still water left in Lake Michigan. I didn't drink it all.
Now I'll be a couch potato while I watch Poland and the Czech Republic go at it in 75 degree rainy weather from Wrowclaw (sp) in Euro 2012.

Great races ya'll.
Great post. Im training for my first marathon. Im different to you, my environment is about 30 Deg C at 10 in the morning and it just gets hotter. I live in Gibraltar (southern spain - a British colony) and theres no flat runs. I have my first big run tomorrow and im dreading it - im sure i'll be fine but ....... I went home to the UK for a week last week and training runs there were a doddle compared to here - 8 miles done in less than 70 mins!
Was supposed to do 16 today based on my training plan, but did 6 with my team and then started to do the remaining 10 and got a cramp/pain in top left calf. Tried running through it but got worse not better so turned back and ended up with 11. This week is a drop off so hopefully it will help the pain.
Ran 4 miles Tuesday and 5 on Thursday, then the 5K race for melanoma research, Block the Sun Run. Managed to beat 30 min again, barely, came in at 29:43. Warmest race so far this year, but would have been much worse if not for good cloud cover. The winner of the entire run was in my 55-59 age group, coming in at 18:08! Seriously!
I'll try to get in a long slow run tomorrow before church; too warm later in the day. Plus, it's 34 years tomorrow my wife and I exchanged vows, so we'll be celebrating big time!!

Dtothe2nd - Great work on the 5K and 8K! I know what you mean about starting closer to the front of the pack. In my second 8k I spent virtually 1 mile slaloming through the pack of runners. Nice to see all of the kids running, though!

My girlfriend and I stayed in Carlottas lovely garden in the northern part of Rome. We really enjoyed our stay here, and actually spent more time in the little cottage, than we thought we would do, it simply was amazing. From the porch there is a beautiful view over city and and meadow. We will deffinately stay there again, when we return to Rome. It takes about 15 minutes to get to the city centre and it is very easy. We highly recommend Carlottas cottage, especially if you want to get away from the we busy city centre of Rome.
Very beautiful house in a very beautiful Garden very close to the city center of Rome, but the closeby road is very noisy
Petfect location to escape the noisy Rom and still be very close to the town. very friendly owner. Very clean. Nice fire place inside. I can really reconmend this little nice and cosy house
The little house in the Pine Forest was really lovely and I was happy to escape the busy Rome.. When we arrived, the host did not know that we would come, she thought one day later.... The day before we left, our hosts left themselves.. .. There was a gate which had to open before you could leave and they advised us to ring one or more bells at 07.15 in the morning!!! This off course we did not like and we called them. In the end everything was solved, but you can imagine that our expectation was different...
So my conclusion is that the accomodation was really OK, but the way how we were treated by the hosts, was a different matter.
It was indescribably beautiful, the only criticism was that the road in the valley is very noisy - but that sounds off it! This does also come quickly to Rome! The house is beautifully furnished and decorated, we did not miss anything. The bathroom very functional, everything in the kitchen available: dishwasher, induction cooker, pots, pans, knives - everything you need! . The garden is a dream! From the bed to look at the flowers, watch birds building a nest - just great! The hosts so helpful and sympathetic, that it was always a pleasure to us to get in touch with them! Our heartfelt thanks for the wonderful time in their little paradise.
Beautiful and cozy in a great environment, including 2 guard dogs! :)
Wunderschön und kuschelig in einer tollen Umgebung, inclusive 2 Wachhunde! :)
great stay, the site and the house is very nice and very sympatiques guests! we highly recommend this accommodation!
super séjour, le site et la maison sont très agréables et les hôtes très sympatiques!nous recommandons vivement ce logement!
Il posto in cui si trova la casetta è incantevole, la casetta si presenta semplice ma funzionale su tutto ciò che serve. L'igiene è buona e il silenzio durante la notte, nonostante la zona centrale é assoluto. Il giudizio complessivo è positivo. Da consigliare.
Eine wunderbare Location. Ruhig, friedlich, viel Natur drumrum. Sehr erholsam, gute Energie.
Carlotta schickt einen Pack an Informationen ( sehr Wertvoll ) kurz vor dem Aufenthalt raus. Inklusive zwei Telefonnummern. Allerdings ist der beschriebene Weg gegenüber der Haltestelle der Bahn länger und zum Teil riskant an der Schnellstraße entlang. Geht einfach an der Haltestelle beim Ausgang raus und nach links die Straße entlang. Nach der Überführung rechts gehen und schon seid ihr auf der richtigen Straße. Ihr geht direkt auf den Toreingang zu...
Im Haus war alles piccobello und richtig gemütlich. Hab leider den Ohrenbackensessel vom Bild vermisst. Ansonsten alles wie beschrieben. Die Straße störte uns nicht. Im Haus ist es nicht laut.
Wichtig! Falls ihr den Rückflug schon um 08:45 Uhr bucht ( so wie wir) kommt ihr nicht mit Bus oder Bahn so früh weg. Die früheste Bahn geht erst um 5:30 Uhr. Geht dann nur mit Taxi.
Wir würden auf alle Fälle wieder kommen

IOC working to prevent Saudi Arabia from leaving Olympics
The International Olympic Committee said it is working to prevent Saudi Arabia from dropping out of the Olympic Games over a female judo athlete's headscarf.
The IOC said it will meet with Saudi Arabia national Olympic committee officials, London 2012 Olympic organizers and the International Judo Federation after the country threatened to drop out of the games unless Wujdan Shahrkhani is allowed to wear her headscarf while competing, The Daily Telegraph reported Friday.
"Yes we have heard that the Saudis are not happy and we will have an urgent meeting, certainly in the next two days," an IOC representative said.
Saudi Arabia ended months of controversy about a lack of female athletes a few weeks ago by announcing Shahrkhani would compete in judo and Sarah Attar would compete in track and field. However, those plans were put into question Thursday when the International Judo Federation said Shahrkhani would not be allowed to wear her headscarf during the competition.
Federation president Marius Vizer said that the decision resulted from safety concerns and "the principles and spirit of judo.

Sen. Manchin visits to hear local concerns
April 4, 2013
PARKERSBURG — U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., was in Parkersburg Wednesday talking about issues affecting the local airport, the banking community and residents in general....

On another note...WV's economy is only going to get worse unless some leaders in the state with fresh ideas step up soon...with MD and other states now opening up casino's...WV's cash cow casino's will start to see major drop off in out of state dollars being brought into the state. WV needs new ideas and a new way of thinking..and you all can start by voting these clowns out.

I am not a super fan of Manchin (or any other career politician)...however...since you went there...just an fyi..the 2nd Amendment has nothing to do with the sheriff that was shot..stop blaming the means and let's try to focus on the cause of why people pull the trigger on each other. It is against the law to shoot somebody, that didnt stop this bad guy, laws really only change the behaviour of law abiding citizens (which you dont need to worry about in the first place).

A true "Blue Dog Democrat". He talks like he is for the working class, but still holds on to the big money supply people for re-election funding. If pushed into a corner, guess which way he will vote? Watch gun control, he will vote against it and protect 2nd amedment rights for the public and still support the NRA big bucks. It's a win, win program, yet the sheriff of Mingo County gets shot and killed in the streets by someone he supported indirectly.

Delany: The Polymath and Dark Reflections
The Polymath was both exciting and disappointing, in some ways inevitably so, because I have spent the past year studying Delany's work intensely and intensively. Thus, there was excitement because various moments of the film gave me images of things I had previously only imagined -- Delany's family, his book-encrusted apartment, etc. -- and disappointment because, of course, no film can contain the depth of information one gets from reading a writer's works.
The Polymath worked best for me when it did what only its own particular medium can do -- in this case, present a particular person in particular situations, places, and times. My favorite scene, for instance, was one where Delany walked through an empty movie theatre, pointing out where in a porn theatre in the 1970s or 1980s certain people would sit, and why, and what their choices of seats said about them and the social situation of the theatre itself. The information was perfectly familiar to me from Times Square Red, Times Square Blue and other sources, but seeing Delany discuss these ideas within an actual cinema adds an immediacy, theatricality, and personality that isn't available via words alone. It's a delightful, informative scene. Similar scenes of Delany walking through the streets of Manhattan were also revelatory, because he offered amusing or illuminating comments, and it's also fun to see how he interacts with people, such as a woman who insisted that he must be someone famous, or another who called out, "Hello, Santa Claus!" He shines in such moments, and so does the film.
Unfortunately, there weren't enough such moments for my taste (I may be greedy), and the editing of the movie felt choppy. Most scenes are separated with title frames that offer information, quotes, or the titles and dates of some of his books. These quickly became annoying, because they seemed to be thrown in to make up for gaps, and most felt extraneous because they were seldom very closely tied to what came before or after them. In many ways, The Polymath seems to suffer a bit of an identity crisis, uncertain as to whether it wants to be a linear Biography-style documentary or a more free-flowing, impressionistic portrait. It leans toward the latter, which makes the more linear material even more awkward. The film as a whole doesn't have a coherent tone or style, which may be an attempt to capture the breadth and eclecticism of Delany's interests and influences, but that does him a disservice, because one of the things that makes Delany so interesting is the way he overlaps and intersects his interests and influences -- the movie feels piecemeal, grabbing at whatever it can, but Delany's own work has never felt that way to me.
Dark Reflections is a novel unlike any other Delany novel -- it's probably closest to Atlantis: Three Tales, but it's more straightforward and fictional, and one of the most immediately accessible novels Delany has written in ages. This is not to say it lacks complexity -- it's intellectually rich and structurally impressive, with hardly any moment lacking echoes and reiterations elsewhere in the book.
The story is that of Arnold Hawley, a not-very-successful poet, a black gay man who has lived most of his life in celibacy on the Lower East Side. Delany has, of course, included many black, gay poet characters (not always in that configuration) in his work from the beginning, but this is the first time I can think of that he has devoted so much attention to a character who hardly ever has sex. There are scenes that Delany has depicted before -- scenes of hustlers, scenes of public bathrooms -- but this time they are portrayed through the consciousness of someone who is mostly frightened by them, wary of them, even disgusted by them. I have often been fascinated by Delany's writings because they are filled with characters whose experiences are vastly different from my own, and whose reactions to the world are therefore different from my own, yet now with Arnold Hawley, Delany has created a character whose reactions to these situations are ones I can most easily sympathize with, and this provided a new fascination, because I was impressed at how well Delany was able to create a convincing character whose reaction to the seedier side of life is closer to my own (admittedly Puritan) response of yuck. And though Arnold is not at all a role model, and is in many ways a pathetic man, I didn't read him as being a target of satire or contempt, the way he might be in a more determinedly "transgressive" writer's work, but rather as a complex human being. His is a sad life, but not one we as readers are put in a position to laugh at or dismiss out of hand, because he is portrayed as possessing dignity -- much as the more socially marginalized characters in Dark Reflections and many of Delany's other novels are portrayed as possessing dignity, making them worthy of empathy.
Dark Reflections is a very literary book -- a book about a life propelled by literary passions more than any others. Names of books and writers populate the pages, and we get a more vivid view of Arnold's reading than of almost anything else. There are descriptions of people and places throughout the book, but they are secondary to the parade of names and titles. At first, this bothered me, but by the end the effect is extraordinary, much like that of a David Markson novel or Caroline Maso's Ava. Here, the technique efficiently builds character, giving us a sense of what Arnold most cares about and a sense of the depth of his reading life, the most vivid life he has.
Coincidence is also important to the novel, for better and worse. The middle section relies on a coincidence that I didn't find convincing, because it is tied to the book's most dramatic and violent moment, and seemed necessary more for narrative convenience than anything else. A less startling coincidence at the end brings some different strands of the book together, and this one I found both convincing and moving. The last pages of Dark Reflections are beautifully paced and evocative, ringing thematic and contextual notes from throughout the book, so that even though Arnold's life is not given any sort of clear resolution, the novel itself is satisfyingly whole and complete.

I haven't seen the film or read the book yet, so thanks for these early thoughts, Matt. After finally reading Dhalgren about a month ago, I'll be getting more into Delany's fiction soon.ReplyDelete

Just swung over to Amazon to check out the book--nice evocative cover. I am a bit disappointed in that there is no mention of a hardcover, just the quality paperback--do you know if there are possibilities of a hardcover, limited edition or otherwise?ReplyDelete
--Eric S.
I haven't heard anything about a limited for it, but I can ask...ReplyDelete
Thanks especially for the description of the movie --it piqued my interest. I knew already that Fred Barney Taylor was no editor, so the shortcomings you describe do not surprise.ReplyDelete
Hawley is a very successful poet. He never had to pay for his own publication, and until the end of his career hadn't needed to enter a contest to gain publication. His most successful book went through several hardcover and tpb printings, selling thousands of copies.ReplyDelete
That puts him easily in the top five percent of all poets as far as popularity.

I WAS THERE . . . Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip at The Mercury Lounge 9.26.08
Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip
The Mercury Lounge
September 26, 2008
British DJ Dan Le Sac took the stage at Mercury Lounge Friday night looking more like a roadie than a feature act with his fluorescent orange underwear hanging out of his pants. As the beats began, his partner, rapper Scroobius Pip, walked onstage in a thiftstore suit and a trucker hat appearing like a traveling religious practitioner with a beat-up briefcase in hand. Without question, the look was odd but the socially relevant music was original and inspiring. The pair have a terrific chemistry and won over the club with a charismatic performance that came off loose and fun to watch. They passed the microphone off stage to the audience early in the show to sing along with the chorus of The Beat That My Heart Skipped and their interactions with the audience continued through the set. The only comparison that comes to mind is that of fellow Englishmen The Streets but Dan and Scroobius have an off-beat sense of humility and humor that make their live show stand out. They performed a number of tracks off their new album Angles in their hour long set such as the title track Angles and Look for the Woman. The band stopped in the middle of the set to perform their encore because as the early show they werent going to have time at the end and let loose with an interesting twist on The Specials classic Nite Klub.

i've never been part of a tour that hurdled such obstacles before.
threats of violence, a tour manager quitting, and, at the end, a healthy dose of family tragedy to welcome me home.
ironically, i've also never been on a more drama-free tour... which is certainly a testament to the good company I was in. i'm happy to report that dan and pip are some genuine, stand up dudes in addition to making exciting music. we generally laughed our way through the whole ordeal.
to those forum members that came out, it was a pleasure to meet and re-meet you all... i know a few people here attended but didn't post up reviews, and i'm curious to know what people thought of the show...
if you missed this one, i strongly urge anyone thats digging dan vs. pip or even on the fence about them to check out a live show whenever you can. it's a good fucking time, and the spirit of their music gets kinda clarified when you see 40 kids rush the stage at the end of the show dancing while the boys do a Prince cover.
we ended the tour this morning discussing some possible UK dates in the future together... so stay tuned for that info, hopefully...

Vancouver show was great if maybe a little poorly attended ( and by poorly I mean both in numbers and quality; lots of hipsters constantly conversating and such)
B Dolan was great to finally see and did not disappoint though the set was kind of short. The new songs sound great, and he had the crowd entertained. I like the abridged paid dues. I really liked the Lizard/conspiracy song. Dolan put the contrast between the two acts i nice perspective saying he was there to unsettle people and fill them with, I think he called them tumours of hate and sadness (or something like that) so that DlS vs SP could come on and shoot rainbows outta their dicks and fill us up with colour.
I enjoyed DLS vs SP as well, but not as much as I thought I might. Maybe it was the crowd, maybe it was the Katy Perry look-a-likes at the front of the stage, but something put me off when the came on. But they did put on a great show. I really like Angles, and Magician's apprentice, which afterwords Scroobius poked fun at the lipstick lesbians at the front "there were a couple of girls dancing provocatively at the front of the stage and I was wondering how they would dance to a song about suicide, but they both sat down, which is great!
It was also the tensest show I've ever been to, since my wife was waiting at home ready to go into labour at any moment. But nothing happened, and so I still wait.

Hello budy, it's my first time to use PMS. When I run the program, it comes out with an error message " Damaged cache has to be deleted but the program couldn't do it. Stop the program and delete the folder D:\PS3 Media Server\Database manually."
But I can't delete the folder manually because java.exe is using it.
I try to stop java.exe but it does not work. java.exe always re-run itself.
It really makes me annoyed..I searched in internet for days but found nothing.
I'm much appreciated if someone could help me..

Runningahead.com is helping all coolrunning fans transfer our information into their system - i took a look thorugh it and their log looks 100% better than what active is offering (this site is HORRIBLE!!!)
Thank you to all those who figured out the backdoor way of downloading your coolrunning log into excel!
Replace USERNAME and PASSWORD with your information.
I had to use Mozilla instead of internet exporer to do this but it worked. Then go to tools and download the information into an excel file.
I am sad to see coolrunning go but releived to have gotten my data before most of it was lost and glad to not be wasting anymore time trying to navigate this horrible and very limited site.
Peace out Active!
Everybody, compare feature-for-feature runningahead vs. active.
For me the most important feature is the ability to EXPORT my log at any point and avoid site lock-in.
You too active folks. Wouldn't hurt you to be familiar with the features of the competition.
I sent mine there.
I was able to get into my log, but after that, I don't know what to do with it to save it. I haven't the foggiest idea how to save it or export it (I have many skills, but the patience to figure out computer stuff is not one of them), and my tech support has been struck down with a stomach bug. Can anyone tell me what to do?
If you can get to the Log then click on the tools icon. Once there on the right is this menu
Download Your Running Log To download your running log into Excel or another spreadsheet or database, follow these steps.
1) , and save the resulting page to your hard drive, by choosing Save As from your browser's File menu, and take careful note of where you save the file.
Click the click here icon and it will open a save as box. It will be downloading a .cgi file. Just remember where you save it so you can get to it to email it.
Pogo, I saved my data as a CGI file but was then unable to open it with Excel, even though I have that application on my computer. If that happens to you, open your CGI file as a Microsoft Word document, then go to Save As and save it as a Text File. Then, go to your Excel tool, open it up, put your cursor on the very first box. Then go to the Data tab above and select "Import External Data". There are a few steps it asks you to go through and then it will open up in a nice, pretty file. Lastly, save your new Excel file as is.
I am a computer dummy and need a lot of details so that is why I am explaining it in such small baby steps. I hope it helps if you need it.
Ah, thank you all so much. I don't seem to have Excel (or at least I can't find it) but I think my husband's computer does. I just want my 7(?) year's worth of info, in any form!!
www.runningahead.com just added a feature that let's you import your own log! Cool beans! I'm so glad I made the switch.
The deal with transferring the running log from coolrunning.com to active is a terrible, terrible disappointment. The running log at coolrunning.com was cool, easy to use and well equipped. What active offers is awful. My impression is that active is here just to sell stuff. Thanks for the tip to checl runningahead. Vlad
I e-mailed my log the other day. I just received an e-mail from eric @ runningahead.com. He used the new automated process to import mine. It looks great! The coolrunning log was great, but this is at least as good. In fact, it has some nice features that coolrunning did not have.
He said he had to automate it because he has "literally hundreds of logs waiting to be done."
I would have stayed here if they would have listened and brought back the coolrunning log. Too late now.....
Good bye, coolrunning/active.
if you are going to transfer your data to runningahead.com i don't think you even need to put it into an excel file - i think the cgi file will be fine and you can just email him directly and attach the cgi file.
Holy cow even I was able to transfer my coolrunning log to Runningahead (once I found where the heck my download went)!! Flawlessly! It's a wonderful, clean site with no gimmicks! And it works!
Just imported my .cgi file from CR to RunningAhead. Took about 40 secs to import 2 years worth of data and it looks great.!!
I tried out running2win.com and runningahead.com. I really like the log at runningahead. I think even more than I liked the CoolRunning original log. I will check back here on occasion just to see what they do with the log at Active, but I doubt they could persuade me back. I will try to give it an honest shot when they finally get their act together.
I imported mine last night. 5 years of data in a flash. Oh and the shoes milage is all there too. This begs the question. How can the old coolrunnig, runningahead and the others get it right and the allmighty Active can't. OH and by the way Active hands off runningahead do not aquire them too!!!!!!
ACTIVE is the leader in online event registrations from 5k running races and marathons to softball leagues and local events. ACTIVE also makes it easy to learn and prepare for all the things you love to do with expert resources, training plans and fitness calculators.

Three local families have spent the past year trying to move on with their lives.
One year ago today, a masked gunman went on a shooting rampage close to I-20 in North Augusta.
Three people were shot. 1 of them died. And the shooter is still on the loose.
For the first time, in exclusive interview, the first victim, Constance Davidson, tells her story.
"When he fired the first shot, I remember thinking, He's shooting at me. Then when he fired the second shot, I felt it hit me."
Connie Davidson would spend the next year of her life praying about what happened November 22, 2005.
Sunrise brought with it gunshots, a chaotic search, and news of a local man shot to death.
"I didn't actually look and see the gun. I just realized he was holding one because I just looked straight into his eyes."
It was Connie who was first approached by the masked gunman in the Burger King drive thru near I-20 in North Augusta.
After refusing to give him her car, ducking, and driving away, she was shot in the back.
"I just had no thought," she said. "I just drove."
She'd learn moments later, while getting help from an EMT at a nearby CITGO, that the wail of sirens meant the shooter wasn't finished.
"I said, 'Are there other people that got shot?' He said yes. I said, 'Are they okay?' And he said, 'I don't know.'"
The answer would turn out to be shocking for the whole community. The gunman had crossed the street, meeting two more people in the Huddle House parking lot--shooting both of them too.
It was the place where a group of good friends called the "Board of Directors" met every morning…but Rev. Earl Carter and his friend Bill Powell never got to go inside the Huddle House.
Powell was killed when he was shot in the face with an assault rifle. The pastor was critically injured.
And the gunman still wasn't done. He went to Bojangles next door and took a woman's car--no gunfire this time.
In the coming months, there would be no more meetings...just a road of recovery.
"I pray for him every day, I'm talking about every day," Rev. Carter said during his recovery.
And today, left with one working vocal cord, his message is still very much the same.
"I do try to remember to pray for him each day. In my heart I've forgiven him and I just hope he'll be apprehended."
Inside the doors of North Augusta Public Safety, there's proof that investigators hope they'll find the right lead soon…
A wanted poster for the gunman has been up for a year, but so far there have only been hundreds of dead end leads.
"Our investigative team obviously wants to remain optimistic, but the reality of it is…over the past year, our overwhelming amount of info we've gotten has not panned out," Det. Tim Thornton told News 12.
A lot can happen in a year. The victims of this brutal crime have tried to move on.
Connie still feels guilt.
"You can't help but think what if you'd gotten out of the car? Them other 2 people would have been okay."
"And we're not going to have those times anymore," Rev. Carter said of his lost friend. "We're not going to be able to eat together. We're not going to be able to pick at one another, cut up with one another, fish with one another."
The close-knit friendship that was once witnessed inside the Huddle House is just a memory.
"Most of them don't go to the Huddle House anymore," Rev. Carter said.
What's left of the group keeps on driving to a fresh start up the road.
"Our lives will be changed forever."
It's a change in routine, and, for some, getting back to their old selves.
"I don't have any anger. I feel like there's purpose in it. I'm not sure what that is and I don't know if I ever will," Connie said.
Investigators say the mystery to them is still why the shooter drove the stolen car away from the area, then brought it back to North Augusta to a hotel.
Of course, they may never find out unless they find him.
The reward is still being offered for up to $10,000 for information leading to the killer's arrest and conviction.

Cotton really is the "fabric of our lives." But because it's also one of the most pesticide-laden crops in the world, more consumers are choosing the organic version of this textile we love so much.
Global retail sales for organic cotton products increased more than 85 percent to $1.1 billion during 2006, and are projected to increase to $6.8 billion by 2010, reports the Organic Exchange 2007 organic cotton market report. And it's not just about organic cotton T-shirts.
"Consumers are no longer simply eating organically grown food — they are wearing clothes, using personal care products and outfitting their kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms with products made with organic cotton," says Rebecca Calahan Klein, president of Organic Exchange, a nonprofit trade association that works to expand the use of organically grown cotton.
Here are 8 ways to spare the earth and your home of more pesticides and agricultural chemicals.
- Cotton swabs – It only takes a few dollars to choose organic cotton for your personal care products, including organic cotton balls and rounds. Organic Essentials Organic Cotton Swabs are totally biodegradable and compostable, and the packaging is made from recycled cardboard.
- Baby toys – If any product should be void of pesticides in your home, perhaps it's the one that goes into your baby's mouth on a regular basis. Organic cotton baby toys are also often stuffed with wool, which naturally inhibits bacterial growth – a plus for health-minded parents.
- Feminine hygiene products – With the number of tampons or sanitary pads a woman will use during her lifetime topping 10,000, that's a lot of cotton fiber. But the real toll on the planet? The rayon-cotton blend used in many conventional tampons is typically chlorine-bleached, releasing cancer-causing dioxins into the environment. And that's not all. According to The National Research Center for Women & Families, a study sponsored by the FDA Office of Women's Health found detectable levels of dioxins in seven brands of tampons. Organic cotton tampons, such as the ones from Seventh Generation, are bleached without chlorine for pesticide-free, dioxin-free peace of mind.
- Pet gear –Now your furry friend can get in on the organic cotton threads too, dreaming about chasing squirrels while napping on an organic cotton bed stuffed with natural fillings instead of synthetic foam and polyester. Chew toys and pet fashion have also gone organic.
- Nightgowns to wedding gowns – Whatever you want to wear, chances are you can easily find it in organic cotton. According to Organic Exchange, apparel represented 85 percent of the total organic cotton market demand in 2006. The companies using the most organic cotton that year included Nike, Patagonia and Wal-Mart. Today, Sweden-based retailer H&M is one of many mass-market labels expanding their line of eco-chic duds. In 2005, the affordable chain produced sustainable garments with 40 tons of organic cotton.
- Bed and bath linens – For every set of queen-sized organic cotton sheets you purchase, you save 1.25 pounds of pesticides and fertilizers from entering the environment. Plus, organic cotton fibers are more absorbent than processed fibers, making bath towels like Gaiam's Thick and Thirsty Organic Towels the ones you want to reach for after your shower.
- Upholstered sofas and chairs – Like mattresses, the insides of conventional home furnishings often contain petrochemicals. And, if they're treated with a stain-resistant coating on the fabric, probably perfluorochemicals (PFCs) too. Organic cotton sofas, chairs, throws and sofa pillows let you take a load off and reduce your footprint at the same time.
- Mattresses – Conventional mattresses are often made of petroleum-based polyester. Rest easy while reducing your dependency on fossil fuels with a mattress made with organic cotton. You'll also reduce the cancer-causing VOCs released into the air.

The Godfather of Soul's daughter, surrounded by the James Brown Academy of Music Pupils, announced plans to perform at next week's First Friday event on the Augusta Common. (WRDW-TV / July 25, 2012)
News 12 First at Five / Wednesday, July 25, 2012
AUGUSTA, Ga. -- The future of the monthly First Friday event was uncertain after six people were injured in a shooting in downtown Augusta.
Things may be now looking up for the event.
"How can we possibly sit around here and not allow families to enjoy the quality of life that Augusta has to offer?" questioned Deanna Brown Thomas on our weekly radio segment on 96.3 KISS FM with Fattz and Cher.
The Godfather of Soul's daughter, surrounded by the James Brown Academy of Music Pupils, announced plans to perform at next week's First Friday event on the Augusta Common.
"We are coming to perform for peace," Brown said. "This is about a family atmosphere. This is about family fun."
This young group is just part of new a push that is making waves on Facebook.
It is called the "Get Down Downtown" event.
"How does it make you feel to be a part of that?" we asked Brown.
"I feel good!" replied Brown with a smile.
The move comes as the Brown family battles personal troubles of their own. Deanna's sister Venisha Brown was arrested on several charges this week, including assault and battery.
"Well the devil may be mighty," Brown said. "But God is almighty and that's who I serve."
Venisha is accused of stealing a car on one side of the river and trying to run over a co-worker on the other.
"I pray for my sister, and I pray for the young lady that was hurt," Brown said. "And really that's all I have to say about that. My focus is on the kids."
Brown says she hopes the group will encourage other young people to put down the weapons and pick up a new hobby or skill.
"These young kids that are going down to First Friday [should] try to put an instrument in your hand," Brown said. "That will change your life."

What to Eat Before a Workout
Hold a eight to 10-pound weight in each hand and hinge forward at the hips as you step back into a lunge. This uses more of your glutes and lower body—and using more of your bod burns more calories. Then extend your arms out at your sides into a rear fly. Hold for one second and lower your arms. Do 10 reps with each leg.
This move builds lean muscle by using your own body weight. Instead of just doing a pushup, start from a standing position, hop back into a pushup, and then hop back up to a standing position. Do 10 reps.

A third defendant recently took a plea bargain and is expected to testify during the trial, scheduled to start next week.
Laurie Cone and Gary Michael Gallion have been charged with murder, robbery and burglary in the April 2 death of John "Jack" Cone, according to court records. Laurie Cone also has been charged with solicitation of murder.
Laurie Cone's attorney Ed Congdon made a request last week for a countywide jury pool, which would seek jurors from a wider geographical area, citing concerns about publicity before the trial started.
Congdon told Judge Michael A. Smith that there were several factors in this case that could effect a juror's perspective - including Jack Cone's longtime presence in the community and extensive media coverage of his death.
But Smith rejected the idea of a countywide jury pool because it would take too long to notify prospective jurors, and the defendants want to get on with the trial.
However, Smith did allow Cone to draft a questionnaire for all potential jurors, which would allow them to find out who has been influenced by outside information.
The questionnaire will be filled out during jury selection.
According to police, Laurie Cone reported her husband's death to police when she returned to home and found his body about 4:20 a.
The residence doubled as Jack Cone's business - D/C Radio and Television - on North Sierra Way in San Bernardino.
Laurie Cone and her daughter, Jackie Cone, had spent the evening gambling at San Manuel Indian Bingo & Casino.
It was just days after the Cone's 29th wedding anniversary. About 20 guns and John Cone's Ford F-150 pickup were missing from the residence.
Police say an investigation showed that Laurie Cone conspired to have her husband killed for personal financial gain.
Laurie Cone and Gallion are facing life without the possibility of parole.
A third defendant, Shawna Marie Bayless, accepted a plea bargain last week - right before lawyers began talk of jury selection.
Bayless pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit murder, voluntary manslaughter and residential robbery, Deputy District Attorney Cary Epstein said.
"If she testifies truthfully, the conspiracy to commit murder charge will be dismissed and she could be sentenced to 14 to 18 years," Epstein said. "If the judge determines she is not truthful during her testimony, or if she refuses to testify she would be sentenced to 25 years to life."

The Artist
Augustus Saint Gaudens (1848–1907) was a classic designer and sculptor born in Dublin, Ireland, and his family moved to America when he was about six months old. He studied drawing at the Cooper Institute and National Academy of Design and received an LL.D. from Princeton University. He later studied art at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris and in Rome.
Commissioned by President Theodore Roosevelt to redesign the coinage of the United States, Saint-Gaudens designed the Indian Head $10 Eagle and the $20 Double Eagle gold pieces that were struck by the Mint from 1907 thru 1933.
Augustus Saint-Gaudens is the artist behind such famous national monuments as General John A. Logan (Chicago), the Lincoln Standing Memorial (Chicago), the Pilgrim (Philadelphia), the General Sherman (New York City), and the Adams Memorial (Washington, D.C.).

Members of Congress are pressing President Barack Obama to take decisive action against the Islamic State militants who have taken over large parts of Iraq and Syria, and could try to attack the U.S.
Arizona Republican Sen. John McCain tells CBS the extremists "must be defeated, not contained," because they represent a direct threat to the U.S. Another senator, California Democrat Dianne Feinstein, called the Islamic State "extraordinarily dangerous" and said Obama may be overly cautious in his approach to dealing with the group.
New York Republican Rep. Peter King, a member of the Homeland Security Committee, tells CBS' "Face the Nation" that "The longer we wait, the more dangerous" the group becomes. The top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, Dutch Ruppersberger of Maryland, calls the matter "extremely urgent." But he also tells CNN's "State of the Union," ''you don't just rush in."

My antivirus, Avast, has started alerting me that it is detecting a trojan (WIN32:Banker-KDL) when I have my PS3 media server running.
When I stop the PMS service and run the scan again it is not detected. When I start the PMS server and scan again it finds it. I've repeated those steps 3 times now with the same results, the trojan is only detected when my PMS service is running.
So is this a false alarm? If so then what is the PMS software would my antivirus be detecting as a trojan. If it is real then why is it only detected when I have the PMS service running?

Minority surveying bill passes
Published: Wednesday, May 1, 2013 at 6:12 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, May 1, 2013 at 6:12 p.m.
A proposal endorsed unanimously Tuesday by the Senate and Governmental Affairs Committee would allow the state to conduct surveys of the minority hiring and contracting practices of private insurance companies.
Under Senate Bill 33 by Sen. Troy Brown, D-Napoleonville, the division of minority affairs within the state Department of Insurance would have the authority to carry out the surveys.
Only insurance companies doing business in Louisiana would be targeted by the proposed law.
The bill states the surveys are needed "in order to seek information and data relative to the policies and practices of hiring of and contracting with minorities."
Patrick Bell, deputy commissioner of the division of minority affairs, said every other year his office reaches out to insurers for information related to "gender, ethnic background, level of education or training, and the requirements for employment or contracts with the insurer."
He said the information is used to help the division develop targeted initiatives, seminars, workshops and programs, like one at Southern University that helps prepare students for careers in the insurance industry and provides internship opportunities.

Khalid Franklin (WRDW-TV / Background: MGN Online)
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- An Augusta city employee is behind bars, accused of two counts of child molestation.
Khalid Franklin, 42, was arrested Wednesday after a grand jury indictment.
It all has to do with something that allegedly involves his female family members.
"A DUI for a truck driver means we have a problem. Child molestation charges are something that gives me great concern," said City Administrator Fred Russell.
If he's found guilty, Franklin could be facing five to 20 years in the pen.
"Whenever you have an allegation, we must do a complete investigation," said RCSO PIO Lt. Calvin Chew.
"The main thing is that they are innocent until proven guilty. We need to make sure we never forget, that no matter how horrible the charges might be," Russell said.
The charges include two counts of child molestation. The first case was reported by a female relative to Richmond County deputies in January of 2011.
"We have to talk to a lot of witnesses. We have to gather more evidence," Chew said.
Chew says while they were investigating the first claim, a second female relative came forward. She says Franklin touched her between 2006 and 2007.
"They're scared and they don't want to come forward. It does take them a lot of time to come forward," Chew said.
"We've got to look at and judge whether or not the charge affects their job," Russell said.
Franklin has worked as a housing inspector for Housing and Community Development for two years. Franklin is still employed because he has not been convicted of anything.
"Our concern is that we make sure they are treated as innocent until proven guilty. We also want to look out for the well-being of the public. We have to juggle those two items," Russell said.

Hello Karen,
I just noticed your post.
I hope that the referee your referenced was not a USA certified official! First, we are not to speak to athletes on the course. The protocol is to witness the infraction, take copious notes describing the location, athletes, and situation and move along. Those notes are presented to the head referee prior to the posting of the officials results. The head referee determines the validity of the infraction and either dismisses it or applies the appropriate penalty that is then presented to the timer.
The event may have been USA sectioned but the referee may have been local non-certified individuals. If so, I prefer that the RD not bring in non-certified individuals because incidents such as yours taint all USA certified referees. Just for the record, USA certified referees have distinctive apparel clearly indicating that they are USA referees. The head referee wears a black stripe referee shirt. Also, in most cases they are allowed to address the athletes at a pre-race meeting.

Thanks for your thoughtful reply. What I noticed when I was pouring through old magazines - dating back to 1987 - is that drafting has been an issue for at least that long. If people in all sports :
1) knew the rules,
2) followed the rules
then there would be no need for officials.
Some people are simply cheaters. As our sport grows, we are victims of our own success - more racers, too many racers on the course at any one given time, not enough officials to cover 25 to 100 miles of continuous motion, prizes, prestige, qualifying slots, podium spots, etc. Drafting was a problem in 1987 and it remains a problem today. I don't know what the answer is, but I do believe that few (if any?) triathlons with 500+ people are truely non-drafting events. Right now, it appears the solution is "to do the best we can" to enforce rules that are virtually unenforceable due to a number of reasons. I think we need to figure out some creative solutions or just give up trying to enforce the non-drafting rule on a small percentage of the playing field.
Jose, If all officials, board directors, regional directors, anyone else that is making decisions for the quality and intergrity of what is USTA , had the goals and drive like you to make this sport like it should be, would make a tremendous difference in bringing back the fun and excitment of what triathlon is all about. I elect you for the next president of USTA. Anyone else agree?
My goodness, thank you for the huge complement!
I have actually considered running for the USAT Board of Directors but while Celeste Callahan elects to remain on the board representing our region, I will differ to her. She has truly devoted herself to our sport and particularly to engaging women. In the interim, I will continue to serve as a referee because there are many athletes like you with respect for our sport and personal integrity that deserve a fair an event as possible.
Hello Gale,
You bring up a proposition that has long standing, Is it realistic to control drafting? I posit that it depends, as you stated, on numerous variables, some controllable and others not. The integrity of the athlete is, in my view, an uncontrollable variable, but the design of the course, swim wave size, field size, are some controllable variables and may affect the incidences of drafting. However, the reality for most events is that they are govern by local governmental and/or geographical restrictions for the course and also a business need to have a "profitable event". Those directly govern the course layout, how long the roads may be controlled, etc. There is also the pressure from athletes to register for higher profile events that drives the size of the field.
I must believe in the ability of good USAT certified officials to make a difference otherwise i could not continue to officiate. Realistically, I realize that often we are not able to oversee an event as well as we should because of resources, number of officials, number of motorcycles, etc. However, I prefer to make an attempt rather than consider the problem unsolvable. I know many USAT certified officials that feel the same way.
I go back to a very important point, the athletes have a great deal of influence on the fairness of the event by knowing and adhering to the competitive rules. I have experienced where an athlete gets on the podium and their is evidence that they had an unfair advantage, just not witnessed by and official at the event. But, I witnessed their unfair tactics as an athlete sharing the course with them. What I do not understand is how that athlete could take the award!

I agree with triech - thanks for being one of the folks that is pushing to make a difference.
As for officials, I feel really bad for the ones that try to referee a fair race only to be abused by some of the racers. Race officiating is not a glamorous, easy job.
The athletes do have a good deal of influence in many areas: wallet (by not entering races that are notoriously unfair), knowing the rules, encouraging others to know the rules, offering suggestions to the race director to improve the course (layout, staging, etc.), and probably more.
If people really want non-drafting racing, they need to keep pushing for it...

The brilliant Nest thermostat was designed to help you save time as well as money on your energy bills.
It learns the temperature preferences you have for your home. It pays attention when you turn up your thermostat when you wake at 6:30 a.m., or when you dial it down just a bit right before you leave for work every weekday morning.
But Nest doesn't just listen and learn. It acts. After learning your preferences, Nest automatically adjusts your home's thermostat so you don't have to.
Even better, you can control your Nest remotely. What if you're coming home from work a couple hours early and want your house nice and toasty up when you get there? Or perhaps you forgot to turn down the thermostat before your family left on vacation? Nest lets you adjust the temperature of your home remotely via your mobile phone.
Surely you're curious by now? If so, get the details here: http://www.nest.com. The overview/summary video is very well done.

Google's new service is called "Google Shopping Express" and provides same-day food/grocery delivery - yes, same day. What's the catch? It's only available in the San Francisco Bay Area at the moment. Darn. (Are you wondering why Google would bother with a service like this? It's simple, really. As they continue to increase our reliance on the Internet, the volume of opportunities for them to show online ads continues to increase. And online ads are exactly where Google generates the vast majority of its revenue.)
