Vail Resorts announces all employees will be required to wear helmets while skiing and snowboarding on the job. They will also require helmets for all children age 12 and under who take group lessons at its resorts and parents like Candice Towner think that's using your head. "It's a wonderful idea. I wouldn't have them go out there on the slopes without anything."
The new rule is set to take affect next ski season, but like mom Candice, many have already been suiting up for safety. Chris Birdsong of Gene Taylor's says, "we've seen a strong increase over the past five years of people wanting to add a helmet. it's definitely a safe thing, a smart thing and the warmest hat you'll ever own."
Helmets are actually pretty cheap and are recommended for skiers and snowboarders of all ages, not just the kids, but Chris has one word of advice. "Parents definitely want their kids to wear them, I think parents should be advocates and if they are forcing the kid to wear one they should go ahead and get a helmet also." Because YOU can be the best role model for your child.
While the new rule is set for employees and children, Vail officials say they strongly recommend helmets for skiers and snowboarders of all ages. Vail resorts owns Vail, Beaver Creek, Keystone, Breckenridge in Colorado and Heavenly in California. The company says it plans to make helmets part of its rental packages for children.

Starbucks' Holiday Drinks — Do's And Don'ts
Nothing answers the cry of a cold morning during the holidays than a Starbucks Peppermint Mocha. I was reminded of the pure joy of these hot holiday beverages the other day when my peaking anticipation for a Peppermint Mocha (I was meeting a friend at Starbucks) was met with horrifying disappointment when they announced to me that they were out of "it." I settled for a skinny gingerbread latte (nonfat milk and no whip).
I was then inspired to dig deeper into the Starbuck's nutrition database to come up with some holiday "do's" and "don'ts" for people like me who aren't exactly asking for extra calories and saturated fat this Christmas.
Starbucks Holiday Drinks "Do's"
Do order the following holiday drinks if you want to keep your calories at 200:
- Gingerbread Latte, 16 ounces, with nonfat milk and no whip = 200 calories, 0 grams fat
- Light Peppermint Mocha Frappuccino, 16 ounces = 150 calories, 1 gram fat
- Light Pumpkin Spice Frappuccino, 16 ounces = 150 calories, .5 gram fat
Do order the following holiday drinks if you want to keep your calories less than 300 and fat grams less than 5:
- Peppermint Mocha, 16 ounces, with nonfat milk and no whip = 280 calories, 3 grams fat
- Pumpkin Spice Latte, 16 ounces, with nonfat milk and no whip = 260 calories, 0 gram fat
If you must have whipped cream on your holiday drink, do add the word "light" and ask for light whip. Depending on the drink and the Barista, whipped cream can add around 90 calories, 9 grams of fat and 6 grams of saturated fat. If they squirt half as much on your drink that would hopefully bring it down to 40-ish calories and 4 grams of fat.
Starbucks Holiday Drinks "Don'ts"
Avoid ordering these two drinks: the Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha, and the Eggnog Latte. These are the two drinks in the Starbucks holiday beverage line-up that are high in calories no matter how you order them. Even with nonfat milk and no whip, the Eggnog Latte totals 450 calories and 18 grams of fat (11 grams saturated fat) for 16 ounces. And the White Chocolate Peppermint Mocha totals 430 calories and 7 grams of fat (5 grams saturated fat) for 16 ounces when ordered with nonfat milk and no whip.
Don't think you are doing yourself a favor when you order the holiday hot chocolate options instead of the lattes. It's still helpful to specify nonfat milk and no whip on these as well. The Peppermint Mocha Hot Chocolate or Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate made with lowfat milk and no whip is still 360 calories and 9 grams of fat. The nonfat milk option will bring it to 310 calories and around 3 grams of fat for the 16-ounce size.

SIKESTON -- Southeast Missouri teams garnered three of the top four seeds in the upcoming Class 2, District 2 Baseball Tournament.
St. Vincent hosts the rotating tournament which will be held at the Perryville City Park on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday.
Kelly (12-9) enters as the No. 1 seed while defending champion Scott City (10-9) comes in at No. 3 behind Ste. Genevieve Valle (11-5). Charleston (9
-11) received the fourth seed.
Other seedings in the eight-team tourney were Crystal City (8-7) at No. 5, St. Vincent (4-16) at No. 6, Grandview (2-9) at No. 7 and Woodland (6-12) at No. 8.
Reigning champion Scott City, which saw a 9-0 lead dwindle to 9-7 before rebuffing a late St. Vincent charge last season, opens against the Indians this year.
"It's a very even district, across the board," said Mike Umfleet, Scott City coach. "We could have just as easily been the No. 5 seed.
"The host team has won it the last three years, so we'll be trying to break that streak."
That streak is likely to be broken as host St. Vincent is having an off season with a record of only 4-16.
The Rams suffered a major loss when ace sophomore hurler Ryan Modglin, one of the area's best, went down at midseason with a neck injury.
"He was not only our best pitcher, but he was swinging the bat as well as anybody," Umfleet said, of the power-hitting Modglin. "We'll be counting on freshman pitcher Shae Simmons."
Kelly's always competitive Hawks, at times their own worst enemy during the regular season, occasionally wrestled with the "bad-inning blues."
A botched play here, a base-running mistake there sometimes led to blown leads and a handful of close losses. But, if the Hawks' defense holds up, they have the talent to be a finalist.
Fourth-seed Charleston, maybe the hottest squad, record-wise, going in, went on a late surge winning five of its last six, including four straight.
Of course, the district's a loser's out tournament, so often it boils down to who can ride momentum to the title.
However, the Bluejays will be coming off a 10-day layoff from competitive action when they face Crystal City in their opener.
"In one respect, it helps us because we're able to get our pitching in order," said Charleston coach Chris Stanfield. "On the other hand, it hurts us because we were playing real well, clicking and swinging the bats well. It's a concern, but I think our kids will rise to the occasion."
Stanfield also sees the tournament as wide open from top to bottom. He reminds that lowest seed Woodland tested perennial Class 1 power Oran (19
-4 and the top seed in its district), in a close loss.

Score Quality
The score is scanned, with hand-written notations. These are mostly useful---they help you know which instrument is which on a new page---but this is not a pristine score.
In addition, some of the orchestra notes, printed smaller than the solo piano, are hard to read.

As a business, your dedicated engineering and network operations teams are tasked with ensuring that your website and network are performant, secure and always available. Companies around the world choose CloudFlare's Enterprise services to manage all types of situations, from managing regular traffic loads to heavy promotion to DDoS attacks.
CloudFlare customers
Over 2,000,000 websites globally use CloudFlare as their 24/7 web operations solution providing CloudFlare with an unparalleled amount of web performance and security knowledge. CloudFlare uses this performance and security knowledge to optimize every visitor request in real time. From mobile performance to regional networking route optimizations, or intrusion detection without impacting legitimate visitors to DDoS protection CloudFlare uses the learnings of the entire CloudFlare community to offer the next generation in enterprise performance and security.
In addition to a global content delivery network (CDN), full web content optimization, reputation-based security, and a cloud web application firewall, the CloudFlare Enterprise services include the following additional performance and security features:
Advanced DDoS protection
Layer 3 and 4
DDoS (distributed denial of service) attacks are on the rise. CloudFlare's Advanced DDoS protection protects your website from a variety of Layer 3 and 4 DDoS attacks. Unlike other common DDoS solutions such as firewalls, routers and load balancers CloudFlare's Advanced DDoS protection absorbs and stops the attack at CloudFlare's edge before it ever reaches your server. Your network and servers are automatically protected from a range of TCP floods including SYN, UDP and ICMP attacks. Never install another piece of hardware or software, and never worry again about bandwidth and overage fees.
Layer 7
Sudden surges in traffic are often difficult to manage. CloudFlare layer 7 DDoS protection offers your website automatic protection by constantly monitoring and reacting to changes in your site's traffic patterns. Leveraging an unparalleled amount of data contributed by the CloudFlare community, our systems distinguish between surges in traffic that are beneficial for your website—such as your website's appearance on a major television program—and malicious attack traffic. When an attack is detected CloudFlare's system automatically blocks the attack at the edge before it ever reaches your server and, most importantly, ensures that legitimate visitors to your site are still allowed access. Layer 7 protection from CloudFlare requires no hardware or software, and we never charge bandwidth or overage fees. 24/7/365 layer 7 DDoS protection is included with every Enterprise plan.
Keyless SSL
While most customers are comfortable with CloudFlare managing their private keys, some have unique security requirements making this impossible. Keyless SSL allows users to retain control of keys while still routing encrypted traffic through CloudFlare's global network. This means that for the first time ever, an organization can use a solution such as CloudFlare to get all of the benefits of the cloud (DDoS attack mitigation, load balancing, WAN optimization), without having to give their SSL private keys to a 3rd party cloud provider.
Railgun™ web optimization
Railgun ensures that the connection between your origin server and each CloudFlare data center is as fast as possible. It does this by using an array of techniques to accelerate the HTTP connections between CloudFlare and your servers.
HTTP is now 23 years old and, although it does allow for object caching a large proportion of the web cannot be cached. Dynamically generated, rapidly changing, and personalized pages are not stored in caches and must be delivered from the origin server. Once speed-of-light related latency is considered the time to deliver these non-cacheable pages becomes significant.
Railgun helps eliminate the speed-of-light latency and cache the uncacheable by using a combination of compression techniques to achieve, on average, 99.6% compression of previously non-cached web objects. This results in a 730% performance increase on average, for web traffic from a web server to CloudFlare's network. No matter where the origin server is, or where the web browser is located, Railgun ensures that pages are delivered at light speed. Truly get the most out of your network.
Enterprise features
SSL encryption
Enable SSL with either a SSL certificate issued by CloudFlare or by uploading your own dedicated certificate to the CloudFlare network. We allow for upload of any SSL certificate type including Extended Validation (EV) SSL.
Keyless SSL
Keyless SSL allows users to retain control of keys while still routing encrypted traffic through CloudFlare's global network. This allows companies to get all the benefits of the cloud (DDoS attack mitigation, load balancing, WAN optimization), without having to give their SSL private keys to a 3rd party cloud provider.
Enable Websocket to create a persistent full-duplex protocol providing low latency client-server communication without the overhead of HTTP. Websockets make dynamic data blazing fast.
Customized pages
Customize all system messages and error pages with full HTML and CSS to reflect your business' brand.
Additional Page Rules
Page Rules provide you with fine-grained control of CloudFlare on each page of your site. You can enable full HTML caching, individually customize CloudFlare's features on a page by page basis or enable edge network forwarding to improve page delivery even further.
Purge by Cache Tag
Cache Tags provide a powerful way to purge the cache granularly using tags you define in assets' response headers. Purging the cache by Cache Tag is quick; a purge takes just a few seconds to take effect globally.
Custom mod_security rules
Allow CloudFlare to manage your mod_security rules from our edge without the overhead of actually running mod_security, including OWASP compliance rules.
Service Level Agreement (SLA) - 100% uptime
Industry standard SLAs often feature 99.999% uptime, also known as the five 9s. At five 9's your website could be offline for as long as 5 minutes and 26 seconds each year. All CloudFlare Enterprise plans offer guaranteed 100% uptime because we know that anything less than 100% is an impediment to your organization's success.
Email support
Priority email support for any issues or questions that might arise.
Phone support
24x7x365 phone support for any issues or questions that might arise.
2500% guarantee

Pagan Paths
Carl Jung's ideas have been influencing the development of Neo-Paganism from its inception in the 1960s and 1970s. But what if Jung's ideas have been misunderstood by many Pagans: literalized on the one hand and oversimplified on the other? What fresh insights can a Jungian Neo-Paganism contribute to Pagan discourse and practice today? And might Jungianism serve as a bridge between the earth-centered and deity-centered Pagan communities?
July Blogfest: In Defense of Cultural Appropriation
Joseph Bloch has invited us to participate in a July Blogfest by writing about cultural appropriation.
I'm a Jungian and an eclectic Neopagan, which means that I am doubly vulnerable to charges of cultural appropriation. Jungianism and eclectic Neopaganism are criticized for their borrowing of symbols from other cultures for a variety of reasons. First, the removal of religious symbols and practices from their cultural context may be seen as trivializing. Second, the adoption of the traditions and practices of another culture may be seen as a form of cultural theft, and another form of Western colonialism. In many cases, these charges are well-founded, but I don't think it is fair or accurate to condemn eclecticism automatically as either trivializing or as cultural theft.
The trivialization of religious symbols
A splendidly ridiculous example of the trivializing form of eclecticism is an on-line game called "Create Your Goddess". It's like a bad joke. The player is presented with a (nude) female figure who resembles a Barbie doll and the "player" is invited to mix and match skin tone, hair color, and clothing of "goddesses" from ten different cultures. The result is absurd at best. And, to be perfectly honest, sometimes eclectic Neopaganism can look like this to a traditionalist or reconstructionist.
[Goddess with Yemanja skin, Amaterasu hair, Lakshmi torso, Isis legs, and Corn Maiden feet]
In Pagan circles, the issue of trivialization often takes the form of questions of "authenticity". I am an eclectic Pagan myself, so I have a certain perspective or bias about the question of authenticity. I left Christianity, in part, because I no longer saw the value in trying to imitate the values of people that lived before the Enlightenment, before liiberalism, before feminism, and before there was anything called "spirituality". I came to Neopaganism after reading Ronald Hutton's Triumph of the Moon. Consequently, I had no illusions about Neopaganism being the "Old Religion". So I judge questions of authenticity differently than a reconstructionist.
In my opinion, there is nothing that makes eclectic forms of spirituality automatically any less authentic than those that are traditional or are based on reconstructed cultures from antiquity. Certainly, one cannot pick and choose deities from the pantheon of pre-Christian Ireland, merge them with a Neo-Wiccan ritual structure, and then claim to be practicing an ancient Celtic spirituality. But that does not mean that such an eclectic spirituality is any less valid than that of either Celtic reconstructionists or of the ancient Celts themselves. In fact, to the extent that eclectic spirituality reflects (post-) modern values, I would argue that eclecticism is better suited to people today than one that was created by people in a distant time and place.
Cultural "theft"
A more serious charge, I think, is that of cultural "theft". This criticism becomes especially acute in cases where the tradition borrowed from is a living one, like Hinduism. It is doubly problematic in the case of Native American spirituality, since Europeans have literally stolen so much from that group already. However, this raises the question whether it is actually possible to steal a cultural symbol or practice. Stealing implies that the thief has deprived the owner of something. In my opinion, if eclectic Neopagans borrow from other religious traditions, especially living ones, mix that tradition with Neopagan or Neo-Wiccan motifs, and then claim to represent the indigenous religious tradition, then they are frauds. Not thieves . . . but frauds. For example, IndoPagans should not claim to represent the cultural traditions of Hinduism.
In my opinion, if it's not nailed down, then its fair game . . . as long as you are honest about your borrowing. I'm not going to buy a statue of Shiva and add it to my Neopagan altar and the then call myself Hindu. But if I like the imagery and myths about Shiva, then I will use them. When I take a name, a story, or an image from another culture, I remove it from its cultural context, and it is transformed. There's no way to avoid it. In order to completely avoid any cultural "appropriation", I would have to deny myself access to all the myths and imagery of the world's religions, living and dead. This is what many Naturalistic Pagans do, and that is a legitimate choice. But for those for whom the stories and imagery of ancient cultures resonate deeply, it would be like amputating a spiritual appendage.
I do understand, though, how people from traditional cultures consider it disrespectful to use their words and images. I remember one time, when I was a Mormon missionary, meeting a woman who told me she believed the founder of the Mormon church, Joseph Smith, was a prophet. But she was not Mormon. (In retrospect, I think she may have been Baha'i.) I insisted that a belief in Joseph Smith's prophetic calling logically compelled her to become Mormon. She just responded that she had incorporated my beliefs into her own. I was offended. (Note: Mormons don't worship Joseph Smith, but they honor him like a prophet, like Jews do Moses.) I felt like she was trying to "steal" Joseph Smith from me. But looking back, I realize now that she wasn't taking anything away from me. Her Joseph Smith wasn't my Joseph Smith. And for that matter, my Joseph Smith wasn't the Joseph Smith anyway.
The same is true of Neopagan borrowing from traditional cultures. If I invoke the "Trickster" in a prayer, I am sure I have a very different idea of what that means than do those Native Americans who use that name. I am not taking anything from them. Their religion is not in any way diminished by my use of that word. And the same holds true for ancient pagan religions. Sure, Celtic myth has a different meaning to people who lived in ancient Ireland than it does to those born and raised in North America. But does that make it meaningless to me? No. When I read the stories about CuChulainn and the Morrigan, something resonates in me. Is that because some ancestor of mine that I don't know about was Irish? No, it's because I am human. And I reserve the right to take that story, change it if it feels right, and incorporate it into my personal spiritual practice . . . so long as I don't then call myself a "Celt".
The one important caveat I would add is that those who "borrow" cultural traditions, must still treat them with respect. The lady I met in Brazil was respectful of the historical figure I honored. The Dress-Me-Up-Goddess game above, or the Lakshmi Whopper below, are not respectful. Not every use of another people's cultural icons is okay. I do have a problem with the commercialization of another's religion. While, in my mind, my spiritual development may trump your cultural sensitivity, the profit motive does not trump anyone's cultural sensitivity.
["Lunch is Sacred": a Spanish Burger King ad appropriates the Hindu goddess Lakshmi]
Thursday, 04 July 2013
I may not share your theological views, but as a Platonist I'm impressed with your rigorous logic and willingness to share your beliefs with us.
I do share your concerns regarding the disrespect of other cultures, and I believe the defense of cultural appropriation has some merit. Cultural contexts can vary from individual to individual, and change over time. The further we go back in time, the murkier the picture gets. Let's not forget, there are islanders from Lesbos (who truly are Lesbians in the literal sense) who have filed a lawsuit to stop people from using the word to refer to female homosexuals (who are definitely lesbians in the 'clitoral' sense).
At what point do we draw the line, and who gets to decide?

Let's Go to Trial: Rakoff Slams BofA, SEC, Rejects Pact
This just in: Manhattan federal judge Jed Rakoff has rejected the proposed $33 million settlement between the Bank of America and the SEC. The SEC had alleged that BofA "materially lied" in shareholder communications last year about bonuses to Merrill Lynch employees. Click here for the early WSJ story; here for Rakoff's ruling; here, here, here, here, and here for earlier LB posts.
The SEC and Bank of America had sought the judge's approval of a consent decree to resolve charges that the bank concealed an agreement to pay up to $5.8 billion in bonuses to Merrill executives. But, in an unusual move, the judge said no. On Monday, he set a Feb. 1 trial date on the allegations in his New York courtroom.
For starters, Rakoff found the proposed settlement unfair:
It is not fair, first and foremost, because it does not comport with the most elementary notions of justice and morality, in that it proposes that the shareholders who were the victims of the Bank's alleged misconduct now pay the penalty for that misconduct. . . . [T]he notion that Bank of America shareholders, having been lied to blatantly in connection with the multi-billion-dollar purchase of a huge, nearly-bankrupt company, need to lose another $33 million of their money in order to "better assess the quality and performance of management" is absurd.
Rakoff also questions why, while maintaining its innocence, BofA is agreeing to pay $33 million to settle. He says:
If the Bank is innocent of lying to its shareholders, why is it prepared to pay $33 million of its shareholders' money as a penalty for lying to them? All the Bank offers in response to this obvious question is the statement in the last footnote of its Reply Memorandum that "Because of the SEC's decision to bring charges, Bank of America would have to spend corporate funds whether or not it settled" . . . – the implication being the payment was simply an exercise of business judgment as which alternative would cost more: litigating or settling. . . .
But, quite aside from the fact that it is difficult to believe that litigating this simple case would cost anything like $33 million, it does not appear, so far as one can tell from this single sentence in a footnote, that this decision was made by disinterested parties. It is one thing for management to exercise its business judgment to determine how much of its shareholders money should be used to settle a case brought by former shareholders or third parties. It is quite something else for the very management that is accused of having lied to its shareholders to determine how much of those victims' money should be used to make the case against the management go away.
Lastly, Rakoff, a Swarthmore College English major, makes reference to a great Irish wit before finishing, with a flourish:
Oscar Wilde once famously said that a cynic is someone "who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing." Oscar Wilde, Lady Windermere's Fan (1892). The proposed Consent Judgment in this case suggests a rather cynical relationship between the parties: the S.E.C. gets to claim that it is exposing wrongdoing on the part of the Bank of America in a high-profile merger; the Bank's management gets to claim that they have been coerced into an onerous settlement by overzealous regulators. And all this is done at the expense, not only of the shareholders, but also of the truth.

Drafted: DET / 1985 NHL Entry Draft
Round: 3rd (50th overall)
Chiasson began his trek to the NHL playing Junior B hockey in Peterborough, followed by three years in the OHL with the Guelph Platers where they captured the Ontario championship in 1986. The Platers, led by Chiasson, Gary Roberts, and Kerry Huffman, went on to capture the Memorial Cup later that spring, beating the Hull Olympiques in the championship game in Portland, Oregon 6-2. Chiasson, nicknamed "Tank" by his junior teammates, was recognized as the Memorial Cup tournament MVP.
Chiasson was selected by the Detroit Red Wings in the third-round of the 1985 NHL entry draft, 50th overall. He got his first taste of NHL action in 1986-87 when he played 45 games with the Red Wings, scoring a goal and five points. After splitting his time between Detroit and Adirondack the following year, Chiasson played in 65 games with Detroit in 1988-89, scoring 12 goals and 47 points. He remained with the Red Wings through the 1993-94 season. His best year in Detroit came in 1992-93, when he had 12 goals and 50 assists for a career-high 62 points.
In the shortened 1994-95 season, Chiasson was a member of the Calgary Flames, where he played for two-and-a-half years, before being sent to the Hartford Whalers part-way through the 1996-97 season. The team moved to Raleigh, North Carolina the following year and was re-named the Hurricanes. He played two seasons with the Hurricanes.
Just hours after his club had been eliminated from the 1999 Stanley Cup playoffs by the Boston Bruins, Chiasson was killed in an automobile accident while driving home from a friend's house.
In November 1999, the family of Steve Chiasson dropped the puck during a ceremonial faceoff prior to a game against the Calgary Flames, one of Chiasson's former teams, in remembrance of his 13-year NHL career. Susan Chiasson and her three children went to center ice for the faceoff with Carolina captain Ron Francis and fellow players Glen Wesley and Gary Roberts, who was Chiasson's teammate on that championship junior team in Guelph many years earlier. A 90-second retrospective of Chiasson's career was also played on the large scoreboard early in the first period as the fans and both teams watched closely during a stoppage in play.

Day Boating Has Never Been So Fun!
This model is just as comfortable with the kids skiing behind her as she is hosting an upper management sunset cruise.
Speed and Thrill and Your Fingertips
A super-duty stainless grab loop circles out of the top of the seat, plush upholstered back and seat have an open space at the base of the back for ventilation.
Sporty Features Throughout
For executive styling and comfort with all-around water sports capability, the 265BR from Doral has a package you have to see and feel to really appreciate.
Surprisingly Spacious
Convenience items like the changing room and head as well as a cockpit wet bar are not shoe-horned in, there is lots of room to spread out.
Huge Capacity for the Extended Family
The loungers have soft, thick cushions with wraparound lumbar support that you will not be able to resist relaxing in.
European Elegance, Hot Rod Styling and Performance
By Capt. Rob Smith
The Elite Series delivers elegance, European styling and performance for the maturing family. This eye-catching design will make the water sports enthusiast happy while still maintaining the looks and feel of a high-class cruiser. It has room for everyone yet still has amenities like an oversized stand-up changing room with head and vanity and an engine box that has room to get to nearly every component with ease.
Forward Layout
Beginning with the spacious bow, the 265BR has plush seating with dual forward facing loungers that become spacious bench seats. The loungers have soft, thick cushions with wraparound lumbar support that you will not be able to resist relaxing in. In the nose is a concealed four-step beach boarding ladder, flip-over anchor roller, freshwater wash down and plenty or room for anchor line. Bow rails are super duty and our test boat had wood accents on top of the gunwales under the rails. Two stainless steel drink holders are inset in the seat cushions up front, but you can add a thick, highly polished table for serving small snacks when needed. The storage in the seats is fully finished for easy cleaning and the snap-in carpet protects your feet and makes cleanup a snap.
Comfort While Driving
Moving back, storage under the helm is large enough to stow the table tops and has room to mount amplifiers and other electronics. The bucket seats for the driver and navigator look like they were pulled from a high-end two seater sports car. A super-duty stainless grab loop circles out of the top of the seat, plush upholstered back and seat have an open space at the base of the back for ventilation and a bolster allows you to easily see over the bow when getting under way. On the gunnel next to the navigator's seat is a pull-out drink holder, Sirius satellite-ready stereo with a 12volt outlet, and MP3 jack just underneath for added entertainment.
In front of the navigator's seat is the changing room. This, to me is a huge item for the family as it has stand-up room inside, light, vanity and toilet for on the water convenience. The helm station has a tilt wheel with wood, stainless steel and leather accents that compliment the wood accents all around this model. Toggle power control switches are aircraft style paddles with lights in the end to make finding the switch at night easier. A Clarion remote is mounted in the next wood panel up from the wheel and the Faria gauges are in the top panel, and include a digital depth gauge to stand watch on the bottom in shallow waters. The fire extinguisher is right where it should be, next to the helm inset on the side so the person in charge can quickly respond to any fire emergency on board.
A full-framed windshield will help protect you from most of the air underway, and it has a flip over walkthrough filler. I can imagine Doral will get requests for some kind of lower protection in the colder climates, but there doesn't appear to be anything on the model now.
Cockpit and Entertaining
Just aft of the driver's seat is the wet bar that could practically resemble a bar in someone's home. Thick, highly polished wood countertop, stainless steel sink and combination refrigerator/freezer, and dry storage are the key features here. Between the driver and navigator seat is a huge, long locker in the floor to store the filler cushions and includes dedicated clips for the table posts and lights.
The aft seating wraps around from just behind the navigator seat to the starboard side walkthrough. Finished storage compartments and a triangular matching wood table continue the top-shelf elegance in the stern. The sunpad and aft bench lift up on silent twin rams to reveal an engine compartment that is open all around the power plant for easy pre-launch checks, and preventative maintenance. The sunpad has an electric slide to expand it further, and a filler cushion to create a huge bed to relax in the sun.
Swim Platform
The starboard walkthrough has a solid door leading to the swim platform. A panel in the walkthrough conceals the battery switches and main breakers and is easy to get to prior to launch and on recovery on the trailer. Another water connection is also in the walkthrough for quick rinses after a swim. The swim platform has stainless corner guards that improve sure footing even if your shoes are wet. A stainless handle across the back will add to the ease of reboarding from the water when using the concealed four-step telescoping swim ladder, located on the starboard corner of the integrated swim platform.
Specifications and Ride
The 265BR Elite measures 26'6" length overall with an 8'6" beam. She needs only 36" of water for the outdrive when fully extended. The 265 weighs approximately 4,700 lbs. dry and carries 87 gallons of fuel and 13 gallons of water.
The 265BR handled like the sporty bowrider she is, but felt as comfortable as some express cruisers. Our test boat cut turns easily and handled large waves and wakes well. Cutting through the wakes resulted in softer landings and sure handling. The 265 was up on plane in 4.7 seconds and up to 30mph in 8.9 seconds. I found her best cruise speed to be around 23.4mph for a cruise range of 246 miles on a full tank of gas.
For executive styling and comfort with all-around water sports capability, the 265BR from Doral has a package you have to see and feel to really appreciate.

SWIFTWATER — The Panthers seemed well on their way to a second straight win after a fine first half against East Stroudsburg South on Friday.
Pocono West led 21-7 behind three touchdown passes from senior Jeff Krisiak, who set school records for passing yards and touchdown passes in a Week 1 victory over Bethlehem Catholic.
Everything fell apart after the half, though, for the Panthers, who were held to just one first down in the second half. Nine penalties for 77 yards also hurt.
Defensively for Pocono West, Amir Blair and Mario LaMonica came up with big plays for the Panthers. Blair recovered a fumble to stop an ES South drive to go along with a sack in the third quarter and LaMonica also had a sack.

2007 Chevrolet Monte Carlo LS 2dr Coupe (3.5L 6cyl 4A)
We loved the car when we bought it. It had just 11,000 miles. We have had nothing but problems with it. Fist the check engine light comes on and nothing works. Turned it off and back on and everything was ok. Next the heater and air would work sometimes and the not. Thant quit. We sprung 2 leaks in the Power Steering line, and the transmission will stall and then lunge forward. Contacted Chevrolet and that was the biggest joke. Recall on 2006 and 2007 Monte Carlos for the Power Steering leakage, but not 2007. Technical Service Bulletin on the Transmission, which could cause a serious accident, but nothing on the 2007. Dealer said it was a crimped line. Get real.
raise the review mirror. lot of blind spots, especially for short people. IMPROVE CUP HOLDERS
I bought my monte new in march 2007. I have not had one single mechanical issue with it since. Seriously, not one. It is very comfortable and looks awesome. At 28,000 it is still running like new and shows no signs of slowing down.
nice inside, look, reliability
they shouldn't have stopped making it
We just bought our Monte Carlo and love it. very nice lines and the comfort is remarkable. Very pleased with the engine ,very snappy and good on gas . It is a keeper for sure.
They're all good.
I have been leasing a Chevy Monte Carlo for 8 years. I have yet to have had any trouble with the car. The only service I have to do is to change the oil. What better car can there be then this car?
Instruments on steering wheel. The 6 CD player and the sound. The small areas to put thinging into. The trunk area is very large and is nice.
For improvment, I suggest installing the backing up sound so people know when to stop. It will help keep from scratching the car.

2012 and The Simon Necronomicon: The Return of the Ancient Ones!
I would like to welcome everyone here to the GateWalker's Info Page. If this is your first time here, please review some of our previous articles first, located in our menu section.
Well, this article is something that I have been working on for quite some time. It seems that everyone has been up in the air about what will happen during the year 2012 and what is means for the future of humanity.
If the reader were to do a simple google search on the year 2012, they would stumble upon many theories concerning December 21st 2012 and all of this for the most part is still speculation. The interpretation of the year 2012 can only be understood and explained by those who carry on the same tradition as the Mayans inherited their calendar from a prior civilization
Before we begin looking further into this discussion, it is important for us to take into consideration that many of the adherents to the Abrahamic Faiths, place a lot of importance on doomsday events and we should take into consideration what fear actually does to the human body and mind. For further insight on this matter, I ask that the reader review one of our previous articles entitled Finding Fear.
We should also take into account that many of the Mayan documents were destroyed by the invading Europeans, since they viewed many of the Mayan practices as demonic. This is why we mention that only keepers of the Tradition similar to the Mayans could understand what is meant by the few Mayan writings that we have left, and by comparing these sparse documents with the histories of other ancient civilization can we come to understand what will transpire.
The exact date of the ending of the Mayan Calendar, also known as, the Long Count calendar is December 21, 2012. Will Hart, in the article, 2012: End of the Fifth Sun, mentions the following:
"The Maya conceived of time and history as moving in cycles, small and large. While we use a single calendar to keep track of our annual solar circuit and to mark all of the improtant days within a year, the Maya used a variety of calendars. The array included a 365-day solar calendar, a 260-day sacred calendar and a Long Count calendar that operasted something like an odometer with a zero start date. Unlike the other calendars the Long Count clocked linear time and was progarmmed to stop after 5, 125 years elapsed.
The Long Count was begun at the onset of this current cycle known as the 5th Sun in 3114 B.C."
Hart's discussion can be viewed further at this link 2012 Although the world may remain in ignorance as to what the "Fifth Sun" refers to, we as Asuras (GateWalkers) are very much aware of what the "Fifth Sun" means.
First, it must be understood that a Sun or star is a portal that not only radiates heat and etc, but consciousness. The Five Suns are described in the Simon Necronomicon, as well as, The Enuma Enuma ">Elish. Will will be using the creation account in the Simon Necronomicon, our understanding of the actual Enuma Elish in comparison to the Simon Necronomicon was covered in one of our previous articles found here.
The Magan Text opens with the following:
"Then it was that the Gods were formed within the Ancient Ones. LLMU and LLAAMU (1st Sun)were brought forth and called by Name, And for Ages they grew in age and bearing. ANSHAR and KISHAR ( 2nd Sun)were brought forth, And brought forth ANU (3rd Sun) -Who beget NUDIMMUD, Our Master ENKI (4th Sun)…ENKI our Master, fearing defeat, summoned his Son MARDUK (5th Sun)"
In our article entitled The Race of Enki we were able to see the five root races described by Madame Blavatsky and the Theosophy Movement also within the creation account in the Magan Text and the Enuma Elish. However, we must also consider that these "root races" that all mankindfall under are ruled and shaped by the consciousness emanating from the Sphere of the Sun.
According to many researchers of the Mayan Calendar, as we have seen with Hart's quote above, the 5th Sun came at, or about 3114 BC. This is around or about the time of the emergence of the Sumerian Civilization dated from 3100-2800 BC after the deluge. This was also a time when the Mother-Son Cults or the Moon-Serpent Cults began to be replaced by Solar worship and the Solar Rites. In a prior article, which was published here on the GateWalker's Page entitled Origins of the Race of Watchers, we discussed that Waddell even ascertained that the religious rites shifted from that of the "aboriginal Chaldeans" to a modern Chaldean concept of Solar Worship. This was evident in the famous myth of The Huluppu Tree wherein Gilgamesh aids Ishtar by ridding the tree of the prior rites of worship and so the Anzu bird and Lilith/Lamashtu flee their home that they made in the Tree, in which Ishtar was able to setup a Throne. Later we discover in the Gilgamesh Epics that Gilgamesh spurned Ishtar's love thereby symbolizing mankind moving away from the Mother-Sun worship that the Venusian Priesthood employed.
Interestingly, Will Hart also makes this observation in the same article quoted above:
"It will clock the required number of years to complete a full cycle of five suns on December 21, 2012…..The Maya began their Long Count on what they referred to as the 'Birth of Venus.'Scholars have never been able to determine what the Maya were referring to and neither have alternative researchers."
From the above quote we can see that the Long Count calendar, from which the date December 21, 2012 is derived, began by what the Mayans referred to as the 'Birth of Venus.' This is where the insight of keepers of the Necronomicon Tradition (Cult of the Dead, the most ancient religion known to man. See Secret Society article.) can explain what scholars have difficulty with.
We know that the era of the 5th Sun began the post-flood era of ancient Sumeria and with it the emergence of Solar Worship over the Mother-Son Cults. The early Sumerians designated Venus as corresponding to the Goddess Ishtar. The name Ishtar means star. Yet Ishtar is also another form of the Goddess Tiamat. keeping all of this in mind, let us now look at the pages of another ancient book, known as the Bible.
The creation account that appears in the first chapter of Genesis is probably one of the most misunderstood creation myths to have ever been read by man. The reason is very simple. Every creative day that appears in the Genesis Chapter 1 ends with words "And the evening and the morningwere the ___ day." I am surprised that it has never crossed believers in the Bible; As to Why "evening" would proceed "morning?"Another question that would arise is how could there be an evening and morning even before the Sun and Moon appeared? Evidently this term evening and morning was symbolic in meaning.
The book of Genesis was written about 1400 B.C.E. This was well past the time of the emergence of the Sumerian civilization. It was well-known that during the time Genesis was written that, Ishtar, Queen of Heaven, was known as the Morning and Evening star. As the Morning Star, her name is Dilbah, Goddess of War and Hunting, and as the Evening Star her name is Zib. This would indicate that the creative days as described in Genesis Chapter One, refers to Ishtar's Descent into the Underworld (Earth, Ereshkigal). If we note that in Ishtar's Descent into The underworld, Ishtar is said to give up an article at each gate. In the myths of earlier origin, concerning the Goddess Inanna, it is said that she gave up one of the mes, or creative powers at each gate. With this understanding, we can determine that the frist chapter of Genesis actually describes the descent of the Watcher-Class personified as Ishtar into the earthly realm. These Watchers evidently took human bodies for themselves to do a special work of preparing the Earth and mining some of its resources. Due to the severity of the conditions, human beings were created by Enlil to ease the labor of the Watchers. The Watchers then try to teach man to advance himself by sharing with man the science of technology and magic. They were known in Genesis as the serpent, or seers. Evidently, what they told early man was NOT a lie because it is said that man was able to make clothes for themselves and they lived on for hundreds of years after. We then discover that "God" walks through the garden during the breezy part of the day, the God of Wind is Enlil, and gives man and the Watchers an adverse judgement. The Watchers evidently lost memory of themselves and their ability to climb the heavenly latter, as it is said the serpent was bruised in the head. This Biblical prophecy seems to imply that the Watcher were to ose memory of the heritage and remain in human form. Genesis seems to imply this for it says that "enmity" would occur between the serpent's seed and that of mankind, and for such things to exist both parties must be bound to the Earthly plane. Another indication of this can be found in Genesis 6: 4 were it mentions that the Nephilim appeared in those days and afterwards, which shows their perpetual existence in this plane. The Watcher-Class being bound to the Earthly Plane and not fully aware of their heritage or powers is what the Mayans meant by the Birth of Venus or Ishtar. Knowing that Ishtar is an aspect of Tiamat we can see the same message as it is said that Tiamat is 'dead but dreaming." This indicates that only the subconscious force is opened, which would lend to such abilities as telepathy, astral projection, and etc. Yet these abilities would not have a direct impact on the world as we know it today, as there are many people in the modern age who have denied that such abilities even exist.
Interestingly, Jesus admits that he is of this Watcher Class also in revelation Chapter 22:16:
"I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify to you these things in churches. I am the root and offspring of David, and the bright and morning star."
This would explain why Jesus would teach in parables, but would reveal the deeper things to his students because his student were of the Watcher-Class or Ishtar, which Jesus refered to as the Virgin's meeting the Bridegroom.
Since we have discovered that the Ishtar-Class is surviving in the Underworld, we know that the myth about her descent also involves her awakening and restoration to power. Notice what the Mad Arab says in the Simon Necronomicon:
"Know that TIAMAT seeks ever to rise to the stars, and when the Upper is united with the Lower, then a new age will come of Earth.."
The Mad Arab is describing the full restoration of the Watcher's abilities and power. Interestingly, man fears life from somewhere out in the universe and still hasn't ascertained that the Watcher Class dwells amongst mankind here. Notice what the Mad Arab mentions in his Second Testimony:
"for the Race of Draconis was ever powerful in ancient times, ..and they drew down much strength from the stars,.."
When our family were in their full being, the Watcher-Class, we had the strength of a Sun behind us. So there was no feat that was impossible. Now as our Sun prepares to move into alignment with the center of the Milky Way, we can be certain that the God of Water will usher in the Age of Aquarius by acting as Water-Bearer and bestowing upon us the energies from Universe B, which will enable us to exact judgement on Earth. This is the very reason why the Fall of Man occurred on the same day God rested. The Watcher- Class could best see the condition of this realm by becoming a part of it and sharing in its experiences whether good or bad. We know very well what effects planetary and stellar shifts has on our present consciousness. This shift will fully awaken us and complement the work we have engaged in thus far. While we regain our full stellar powers represented by Ishtar being raised from the underworld, we will also face resistance by the governing powers who have built an arsenal of nuclear weapons which cannot match up to our latent abilities.
The Watcher-Class that exists on Earth today can look forward to the year 2012 as a time period where we will awaken fully and can share with mankind new ways of living that are in connection with the universe.

I'm going to have to re-read this a few times and check out my Bible to cross-reference (I really don't like owning one but it's practically mandatory with the stuff we study), but in particular the Christ references are poignant. Will also check burial texts and see if I can cross-cross-reference any of this with Osiris. Very good.

The Sumerian people were around way before 3100 BCE, the Sumerians date all the way back to 6000BCE, as proven by tablets and other artifacts. But I have no doubt that if anything extraordinary happens on Dec. 21, 2012 it'll probably be the return of the Ancient Ones. There will probably be somebody that will perform the ritual of the Urilia Text to destroy the barricades and set free the Ancient Ones who long await the return to reclaim what has be stolen from them.
Also, Lilith and Lamashtu are not the same entity, the name "Lilith" was taken from the Sumerian Ancient One called "LILITU". As well as the fact that within the Sumerian faith the name was not "Lamashtu, it was known as "LAMMASHTA" as written in the Necronomicon. Also ISHTAR and TIAMAT are not the same or a form of each other, ISHTAR is regarded and symbolized by Venus, TIAMAT is regarded and symbolized by the Crescent Moon, in regards most people related ISHTAR with the Elder Gods, and NOT with the Ancient Ones. I think the closest resemblance between Ishtar and anyone else would be the Ancient Egyptian goddess Sekhmet, as they are both reveared as warrior and healing goddesses. But as being a form of TIAMAT, I wouldn't stand behind that belief.

ok.. squid.. but if im correct.. will you leave?
Personally, I wish you would both leave. :)
I can see it. In fact I am saying it's either him or Allen.
Everyone says he is a little small but he has a great motor and is tough as hell.
Would love the pick.
David is too small. Maybe he will be drafted as a Safety.
Wexell has been promoting David as the Steelers second round pick, and I think he would be a pretty interesting player. I won't say that he will not make it to the Steelers pick because I never thought that DeCastro would be there in the first. I suppose that a trade up is possible, but I would be surprised. If the draft keeps unfolding like the first round did, there will be plenty of value if the Steelers just stay put.
:Agree no telling who's going to be there at 56 but I'd certainly not be upset about the LB from Nebraska. There are three O-line guys, Glenn, the DII guard and the tackle from Stanford that could all fall too. I'd love for one of those to fall to 56.

1a.Objectives (from AD-416)
Objective 1: Determine obesity-related metabolic and body composition responses to an exercise program with and without a dietary intervention in lean and obese Hispanic adolescents. Sub-objective 1A: Determine the effects of a combined aerobic and resistance exercise program on lean body mass and total fat mass (using DXA), visceral and hepatic fat accumulation using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS); and glucose and lipid metabolism and insulin sensitivity using Stable Isotope-Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GCMS) techniques in lean and obese adolescents. Sub-objective 1B: Determine the effects of a combined aerobic and resistance exercise program + a diet intervention aiming at a 5% weight loss on lean body mass, total fat mass, visceral and hepatic fat; glucose and lipid metabolism and insulin sensitivity in obese adolescents (using the same techniques as in Sub-objective 1A).
Objective 2: Develop and pilot test interventions to increase and sustain physical activity at a level consistent with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DG) in urban African- and Mexican-American children. Sub-objective 2A: Determine if adherence to the physical activity component of the DG is associated with a lower incidence of overweight/obesity in urban African- and Mexican-American children. Sub-objective 2B: Develop and pilot test an intervention with urban African- and Mexican-American children to increase physical activity consistent with the DG recommendation. Specifically, physical activity will be operationally defined as moderate to vigorous physical activity. Sub-objective 2C: Develop and pilot test a maintenance program with urban African- and Mexican-American children to sustain physical activity consistent with the DG recommendation. Specifically, physical activity will be operationally defined as moderate to vigorous physical activity.
1b.Approach (from AD-416)
Research subjects will participate in a whole-body resistance training program and perform a 30-min aerobic exercise program under supervision of experienced exercise physiologists. Additionally they will perform one 30-min aerobic exercise session/week at home. An additional group of research subjects will perform the same training program except a weight loss diet intervention will be added to the exercise program. The subjects will have an in-depth interview with a dietitian to determine eating habits and food preferences and a 3-d food diary will be provided.
A sample of 200 African- or Mexican-American middle school children (i.e., 6th – 8th grade; aged 10-15 years will be recruited from a Houston charter school to provide data on their participation in moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA). Measured body composition (i.e., height, weight, BMI, percent body fat) will be collected. This study will examine children's free-living participation in physical activity (PA) to determine if these behaviors are consistent with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DG) (i.e., 60 minutes of MVPA most days of the week). A questionnaire will be administered identifying PA barriers and facilitators to help determine activities most likely to encourage continued participation in PA. Subjects will be assessed to determine their level of adherence to PA that is consistent with the DG.
3.Progress Report
Helping minority children meet physical activity recommendations. The prevalence of obesity in children and adolescents has quadrupled over the last 4 decades, and obesity rates among minority groups are increasing at even greater rates. Lifestyle interventions that involve diet, physical activity, and behavioral components have been shown to be effective in the treatment of obesity and its co-morbidities, but several barriers to these interventions exist for minority groups, particularly lower social support for participation in physical activity, unsafe neighborhoods, and fewer resources in terms of time and money to spend on participation in physical activity. Researchers at the Children's Nutrition Research Center, Houston, TX, have developed a physical activity intervention and maintenance program for minority students designed to increase their participation in moderate to vigorous physical activity. We have found that students involved in this program were more likely to participate in school sports, and our results suggested that school-based sports participation may enhance maintenance efforts for school-based weight loss interventions. This intervention program may serve as a model to engage other minorities to help them adhere to the current dietary guidelines that recommend children should spend 60 minutes a day engaged in physical activity.
