Big & Rich
Share This
A pair of gonzo country showmen initially shunned by the Nashville mainstream but eventually becoming the face of Music City as the 2000s drew to a close,
Big & Rich
were the most unlikely country success story of the new millennium. They didn't appear from nowhere, but when
Horse of a Different Color
exploded in 2004, it sure seemed like they did, memories of John Rich's time in
vanishing, along with any trace of
Big Kenny
's years struggling on the fringes of major-label studios. In its place was something cheerfully, grotesquely super-sized, happy to revel in a bad taste that camouflaged exactly how eclectic the duo was, how
Big & Rich
happily pushed hip-hop braggadocio into their rocking country, building their music on chant-along sports anthems and ballads, the former showcasing their humor, the latter their sentimentality. Soon after "Save a Horse (Ride a Cowboy)" because a smash,
Big & Rich
started firing out hits, not just as performers but as writer/producers, turning
Gretchen Wilson
into a star, assisting in
John Anderson
's comeback, and supporting novelties like country-rapper
Cowboy Troy
. Their oversized, out-of-control train steamrolled throughout the back half of the '90s, with
slowly ingratiating himself in the establishment -- appearing as a judge on
Nashville Star
, the country
American Idol
knockoff -- and
Big Kenny
once again turning toward the fringes, only this time working with the added benefit of being able to have his music be heard.
Big & Rich
seemed like an ungainly match, it's because they came from quite different backgrounds:
taking the traditional Music City path via
, and
Big Kenny Alphin
working as a pro songwriter, dabbling in both country and rock. They paired up in 1998, starting a regular performing group called the MuzikMafia, which appeared at a Nashville club on a regular basis for several years.
Big & Rich
worked on new material, both as a team and separately, building a reputation that started to crest in 2003, when
Martina McBride
recorded their "She's a Butterfly." Soon, the duo signed with Warner Nashville, which released their first single, "Wild West Show," early in 2004 with the full-length
Horse of a Different Color
appearing that spring. Thanks to the near-novelty "Save a Horse (Ride a Cowboy)," a boisterous blend of rockin' country and old-school rap, the album turned into something of a phenomenon and
Big & Rich
were ready to seize this opportunity, pushing themselves and their MuzikMafia. First out of the gate was
Gretchen Wilson
, whose 2004 debut,
Here for the Party
, was produced by
, who also wrote many of the songs, including its hit "Redneck Women." The group's country rapper comrade
Cowboy Troy
was next in line, releasing his debut in 2005.
By the time
Big & Rich
released their sophomore album, Comin' to Your City, in time for the holiday season of 2005, they were dominating country music, with
in particular popping up all over the place, producing
John Anderson
's comeback and judging
Nashville Star
. Comin' to Your City showed signs of
Big & Rich
turning their schtick into formula, but the record went into the Top Ten and had several hits. The group's momentum didn't slow until 2007, when their third album,
Between Raising Hell and Amazing Grace
, performed only respectably.
Big & Rich
decided to devote 2009 to solo projects, with
Son of a Preacher Man
appearing in the spring and Kenny's Quiet Times of a Rock and Roll Farm Boy in the fall, followed by a hits collection of the group's first three albums. The duo reunited in 2012 as
Big & Rich
for their fourth studio album, Hillbilly Jedi, which featured a pair of songs co-written with Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora (Bon Jovi was also instrumental in getting clearance from George Lucas to use the term "Jedi" in the album title).
Hillbilly Jedi didn't do much on the charts; it entered Billboard's country charts at four and the Billboard 200 at 25, and only the lead single, "That's Why I Pray," made waves, with the subsequent singles failing to crack the Top 40. The duo quickly returned to the studio, working on their fifth album throughout 2013. By the time 2014 arrived,
Big & Rich
severed ties with Warner and started their own label, also called
Big & Rich
. The first release on the label was the single "Look at You," which appeared in early 2014 and went into the Billboard Country Top 20. The full-length Gravity saw the comedic duo opting for a softer, melodic direction; it was released in September 2014.

That is awesome! It is great when someone else notices but even better when we can see the progress ourselves!
Outside some more this afternoon and I layed down on the sidewalk. My stomach now is lower than my ribcage! This hasn't happened for so long with having 2 kids. It feels like an awesome accomplishment, especially since I'm only on day 3 of my cycle. My stomach is nowhere near flat/firm, but is finally starting to look right when laying flat. DH said he noticed it the other day too.
DS didn't nurse today, I have stopped offering. Seems he may be done, which is fine since he's well over 2 and this means it's on his terms. Hoping I get some good weight loss once he's been done for a few weeks. 160s by Christmas maybe?

Wednesday's soccer games went awesome, I scored a goal in each game! More importantly, I felt good and strong playing. Yesterday was quite a busy day, so no time for my usual Thursday workout. Took the kids to a museum in the morning = lots of walking/standing. Got in a little work, then the in-laws were over. FIL had a diabetic issue so at the kids' bedtime we ended up with an ambulance and paramedics here. His blood sugar was 44 when my MIL took it, she gave him gatorade and sugar. When the paramedics got here, he continued crashing and was down to 22! They got him back up and he was feeling better pretty fast. We convinced him to go to the hospital though so they could monitor him for a short while and were going to call his doctor today. We were all very scared and don't know what the future holds. He had taken his meds as prescribed, but DH later said he reported not checking his level before taking the meds. So we will see what the doctor says.
With no soccer next week, I have leeway to get off my exercise schedule a little, which fits perfectly. So I just got done with today's PBF. Everything was feeling pretty good and I feel strong for the first time in a long while. Did L3, L1, L6, L3/4 and am planning to get to L4 pushups next time, which are the regular ones. I'm also thinking after next time I'll be ready for L2 pullups! That would be very exciting, getting closer to a pullup by the end of the year.
Well off to work on the pizza crust (cheese) for tonight's dinner. So good to feel great! Did I mention that I'm no longer crashing at ANY point during the day and am able to stay up until 9/10 without any problems? This is so amazing.
What a crazy weekend! Yesterday we had a showing, so after going to the grocery store we cleaned up the house. They were only here for a few minutes, then we put the kids down for a nap. Let the kids play in the pool for the afternoon. This morning DH took the kids to work and I went to the store. Went looking for pants that will work for this fall. I think I found some that are what I want. But I ordered online as they're cheaper. I am on a search for pants that look decent but are real comfy, that have pockets, and will last. I hate wearing things with button waists right now because of my changing waist. I'm hoping the ones I found will work, but I'm not sure that they'll last very long. I found great ones made my Athleta, but they're super expensive. Perhaps when I get to my final weight I will splurge on some nicer clothes, since I know I wear the same things all the time.
It started raining while I was out and is still raining now, dashing my plans of sprints today. So after dinner I got in a PBF workout. DH also went to see the house we've had our eye on and that plan has been blown up. Needs a lot of work, which would have been okay. But the layout is just all wrong as a lot of the space is in the bedrooms and bathrooms. We are looking for a large family room if the house doesn't have a basement. So we will keep looking for something that is just right for us. I know that God has a plan to bring everything together at just the right time.
DH goes back to work for the school year tomorrow. So I will be more focused on DD's preschool while DS is sleeping. I'm hoping I can comfortably get my work done and help her all at the same time. She's already excited about doing a new poem. I definitely need to get to the library this week to get books for the next section fo the curriculums. With only 1 review set to do, I should have some time to get everything sorted out while she is still asleep!
L4 Pushups, L1 Pullups, L6 Squats, L3/4 Planks
Had a pretty nice first day of DH back to work. DD had gymnastics this morning and she is just amazing. I think this class decision is perfect and I envision at the end of this school year she may just be ready for team. The things she can already do - back walkover off a mat (feet raised), near perfect cartwheel, and handstand - and she's not even 4.5 yet! She's head and shoulders above the other girls that are over a year old than her. Except that she's much smaller than them which of course is a plus in the sport. I'm excited to watch her progress this year.
No workout today since I did yesterday, but we were outside a fair amount and went for our evening walk. Will either do another PBF workout tomorrow or sprint. Haven't decided if I'll try to get that in with the kids in the morning or wait until DH is home. Will somewhat depend on the weather I suppose. Day 2 tomorrow.
Had another wonderful day today. A bit of a lazy morning, played with playdoh outside for about 2 hours with the kids. Got all my work done during naps and helped DD with the letter C. Walked down to the park and got in my sprints this afternoon. I was nervous taking the kids, but it worked out well and ended up really tiring them out. I'm hoping for some good sleep from them again tonight. We have definitely been getting outside more the last couple days. I'm trying to be sure and take advantage of this great weather as summer turns to fall. Plus keeping the kids outside all day leads to a cleaner house in case of a showing. Thursday and Friday are supposed to be brutally hot though, so not sure what we'll do then. Although Friday will be easy with DS' check-up in the morning. Tomorrow is library day!
Had a bit of a lazy day with the kids today. They were playing very well together this morning, so I didn't want to interrupt them. Plus, with gas prices sky high I am trying to conserve gas. After breakfast, they played while I just relaxed. Once they started to get a little squirrely, we headed into the basement. I got in my workout and the change of scenery worked to keep them busy. I found an old CD I had made for DH and put that in while I worked out. Kind of took me back to when we first met, the simpler days really. Got in a full PBF workout and it felt good. Then we read some books and tried a nap. Neither child napped well today. We read some more, this time "preschool" books, then headed out to play with the pool. It was likely the last water day of this year with fall weather coming in next week.
L4 pushups - felt tough but good
L1 pull-ups - might try L2 after one more session!
L6 squats - good but tough
L3/4 planks - definitely hard but made it
Went for our nightly walk again as well. Such a nice way to end the day and good cool down for my body.
The past 24 hours have been a bit crazy. DS got cleared to return to normal daily life by the doctor, YAY! Good thing, since he was trying to hang from the counter as we were checking in ;-) Had a good rest of the day, DH went to look at houses, none of which we will consider to purchase. While he was with the realtor, she got a call for a showing - 30 minutes notice! Out of town buyer, relocating for work. So I ran around the house like crazy, trying to clean up our mess from the week as best as possible. Got to mostly everything - hand prints still on windows, didn't sweep the kitchen floor. DH said the house looked great when we all returned home. They are supposed to be making an offer on a house today, so big prayers that ours is chosen! Waiting a little on pins and needles for a call from our realtor. How amazing cutting DH's commute in half would be.
Got on the scale this morning as well, down another 1.5lbs! That means only 2.5lbs remaining to have lost 20%. This is so exciting, it's been over 5 years since I lost saw this weight. DH asked me what my goal is this morning and I told him I'm not sure. I'm trying not to focus on the scale, but rather on how I look. I still have quite a bit of belly fat to lose, and want to just be more toned all over. I wonder if my weight loss this week is related to DS's erratic nursing. Some days he won't nurse at all, other days it's 3x/day. So I'm wondering if my body is starting to let go of its nursing stores since it's clear he doesn't need the milk to sustain him. We will see as time continues. Still a small hope I could hit the 160's by Christmas. 3.5 months would mean just about 2lbs/month, which should be totally doable. That would be amazing, I wonder what I could wear out of my stored clothes at that point. Hmmm
Got in my PBF workout today and everything felt good. Feel my abs working hard with push-ups, which must mean they're becoming stronger. Still feeling a good burn on the squats as well.
L4 pushup
L1 pullup - going to try for L2 next time!
L6 squat
L3/4 plank
Didn't get in my PBF today, first day in a while. DH was off work and we spent the day doing things around the house. Got in a TON of walking yesterday at the racetrack though, so maybe it balances out? Today I made breakfast, cleaned out my closet, cleaned out DD's closet (with her help), bought a new faucet, had lunch, worked, then helped to install said faucet. That took us nearly 3 hours! Went on our usual family walk. Won't have a chance for PBF again until Thursday since I have 2 soccer games Wed night and don't want to be sore for them. But I'll get back on track then. DH doesn't have another day off for a while, so I should be good.
What a CRAZY week! Tuesday had a showing schedule, but then reschedule for Thursday. Spent much of the day outside with the kids. I also got assigned 4 of 5 classes for my newer job - lots of work. Wednesday was library day and played outside in the afternoon. I played 2 soccer games that night and it felt great. Got assigned 3 new mentors for old job and 1 new class for new job - lots more work! Thursday morning had a showing - they stayed 30 minutes! In the afternoon I tutored, so no time to workout. That night I was up until 10 working. Friday morning had a surprise showing (kids weren't even dressed!), spent the day outside. DD learned how to ride a two wheel bike with no training wheels! So proud. She also worked on subtraction in the afternoon! Received the first offer on our house in the afternoon - 10% less than our list price. In negotitations now to see if we can get them to come up substantially. Supposed to have a showing last night, but looks like the people never came. Went out to dinner since it was raining. Chik Fil A was expensive and not that good.
Weighed in this morning... 176! I've almost lost 10% of my initial weight (1 more pound to go) and I'm 1.6lbs away from having lost 20lbs. It is so amazing to weigh this little. I'm starting to see my old definition of my shoulders as well, which I love. That used to be my favorite part of my body, so very glad to see it returning. Too bad it's just in time for winter and long sleeves, LOL. Should look awesome by next summer though! Thinking my body is releasing its fat stores as DS is down to nursing only every few days. Sounds good to me!
Got in PBF this morning, kids are at the store with DH.
L4 Pushups
L2 Pullups - easier than expected
L6 Squats
L3/4 Planks - may be ready for all L4 soon
Wonderful weather today, hope to spend time outside this afternoon. Starting to figure out where we're going to go from here as well if this offer ends up working. I know God will show us the way, just impatient sometimes. Trying to decide whether to rent/buy as well as where. Where is the big thing. Looking like DH might get a coaching job where he really wants to work as well. Sending up lots of prayers lately!

It has a lot going for it. Almost three hours of driving to get there, a tourist filled lake close in, an amazing valley of old growth and magnificent boulders, one of the nicest backcountry camps I have been in, some steep forest, and old burn and avalanche field, a wet gully, scree and talus, snow filled gullies, and a final scramble to reach the summit. AdamBrent and NancyDave and Lisa Bill and NancySetting a new standard We went in on saturday May 30. Some of our party was delayed, lost, and unequipped. Maybe they will join us later. There was no hurry, so we didn't. Lena Lake is very nice, and many families were camped there. Mandatory trail poodleSo far so good OverhangWhiskey Tango Foxtrot?The wonder The trail signage is very good. The valley of the Silent Men lived up to it's reputation. Gorgeous old trees and boulders fill the valley. The climbers camp is between two forks of Lena Creek. Check upstream both ways for additional camps. WildernessAmazed at the valley Roots from rockUnderground river Beautiful valleyBig boulders1/3 of team 'False Start' We partied hard, and listened to the other climbers in camp having just returned from the summit. Clues in hand we felt good about the next days plan. Brent cooked us chicken and rice and corn with a cream sauce. Adam stoked a small fire. NaptimeGood conversation Camp mayhemMore WTF It was light when we left camp at 5:30. Easy trail cruised up through the timber, always within sound of the stream. We entered the burned/avalanched area, and wandered among two different paths. Dark thirty startMen A ways to goGood morning A bit brushyCairn and stream gully A gully with water and loose rocks is easily followed upward. The entire lower route had no shortage of flags and cairns. We broke out of the gully and saw our first snow around 4500'. This is also where the goats started following us. First snow, route goes rightWe are being followed Route goes right, alwaysHe's coming right for us! Helmets and axes came out. No need for spikes today, but we took them anyways. The route is not always obvious. If a gully looks too narrow, then it is not the correct way. Whenever there was a gully choice, we went to the right. The only exception was the hourglass, which did not have enough snow to climb. This is easily bypassed on a ridge to the right. Nice goat, please don't butt meHourglass Pano, head right onto the ridge Nancy posing, Pete concernedLisa telling the goat to moveOld burns, avalanches Back into the main gully, it steepened. By this time it was consistently 40 degrees. Further up it got to 45, 50, and for the last few feet it may have been 55 degrees. Self belay was easy, and good steps were kicked. Back into the gully above the hourglassSteepening Abstract, you make up a titleAs alpine as it getsGetting very close A dirty scramble, a small snow patch, and some rock work got us to the summit block. Woo-hoo! A five volcano view. All of the Cascades and many Olympic mountains were out for us. It's tough when I know the names of so few summits over there. We were up top for at least 1.5 hours! GoofballsPeekaboo We saw a man traverse over from the other summit. He mentioned a four hour bushwack and cliff dodge to get there. He did not recommend it. Two skiers were the only other people we saw all day. Bill rigged a hand line for us on the way down the steepish rock. It certainly helped me make the first move. After that it was okay. Despite the steepness, decent glissading was to be had. Rocks are showing through, and we crossed two suspect snow bridges. By this time, the route has probably gone to hell. I highly recommend good snow coverage for this route. A hand line is niceBrent stops to melt snow In the burn on the way down we found another path that swung out to the north. It was here that I saw some large flower patches, and a nice waterfall. Dirty stream gullyLoose dirt in the burn Waterfall and phloxAdam and PeteSundog and contrail We staggered into camp around 300. Hitting the trail around 430, we said good bye to the mountains and finally made the cars around 800. Turkey sandwiches, chips, and root beer hit the spot.

WHO Publishes Bulletin
26 March 2010: The March issue of the World Health Organization's (WHO) Bulletin features an editorial titled "Climate change and its potential impact on health: a call for integrated action," authored by Jacob Kumaresan and Nalini Sathiakumar.
According to the editorial, growing scientific evidence points to vast and diverse effects of climate change on human health, such as increased spatial and temporal distribution of vector-borne diseases like malaria and dengue. The authors recall WHO estimates according to which every year about 150,000 deaths occur worldwide in low-income countries because of the adverse effects of climate change.
They recommend developing capacity to protect human health in the face of climate change, calling for sustainable strategic planning and funding. They underscore the need for a concerted effort to involve national and local partnerships and stakeholder networks to develop comprehensive plans for addressing climate change impacts on human health.
The authors report on WHO's commitment to working with States in the South-East Asia region to generate a regional evidence base and use it to promote integrated action at the country and regional levels. [The Editorial]

SAN FRANCISCO - Apple Computer Inc.'s historic shift to Intel Corp. microprocessors came months earlier than expected Tuesday as CEO Steve Jobs unveiled desktop and notebook computers based on new two-brained chips from the world's largest semiconductor company's.
The first Macs to deploy Intel's Core Duo processors will be the latest iMac desktop, whose circuitry is all built into the display, and the MacBook Pro laptop.
When it announced the switch in June, Apple said it expected to begin the transition by mid-2006.
On Tuesday, Jobs was joined at the Macworld Expo by Intel CEO Paul Otellini to unveil the new jointly designed computers.
Apple, looking for faster, more energy-efficient chips, became increasingly frustrated in recent years as its chip suppliers, IBM Corp. and Motorola Corp.'s spinoff, Freescale Semiconductor Inc., failed to meet its needs.
Of particular concern was IBM's apparent inability to develop a G5 chip that would work well in notebook computers.

Featuring Dusty Rose
Date August 8th, 2007
Photos 50
Dusty is a perfect example of a Bikini Buster. She starts off blowing out her extreme bikini for a hot date with Johnny Rod in the hot tub but he goes after her huge jugs without stopping to admire the bikini. "Fuck the bikini, I want those tits," says Johnny. Dusty appreciates the appreciation. She's great with dirty, sexy talk and she unleases a torrent of it. Johnny's got her sucking his dick in the hot tub as fast as he can swing her around after squirting hot oil on her ass. But that hot tub is too fucking hot to fuck in so they retreat to Dusty's room where the cool sheets soon become wet with pussy juice, perspiration and man-paste. Does Dusty get her tits fucked hard? U bet!

Media Release: Minister Receives 'go Green' Pass From National Park
Date: 2001-06-27
The need for commercial development in the Cape Peninsula National Park (CPNP) can be drastically reduced if every one of the Capetonians who visit the park each year were to purchase a Go Green card.
The cut-price season ticket, which offers unlimited access to the CPNP's pay points as well as special discounts at Cape Town's prime leisure destinations, is aimed not only at promoting Cape Town but also at generating muchneeded revenue for the CPNP.
Speaking in Cape Town at the presentation of the 5 000th Go Green card to Mohammed Valli Moosa, Minister ofEnvironmental Affairs & Tourism, CPNP park manager Howard Langley said that for every few thousand Go Green cards sold, one less commercial development was needed.
"Last year, the Park received 4.7-million visits, of which about 1.7-million went through the park's pay points, namely Table Mountain, the Cape of Good Hope, Boulders, Silvermine and Oudekraal. The remaining 3-million visits were to the open access areas of the park. If we assume that the 3-million visits were made by 300 000 Capetonians going through the park ten times each, if everyone of them purchased a Go Green card at an average price of R85, it would amount to over R25-million a year. That represents more than half of the park's R40-million annual budget," said Langley.
Minister Moosa praised the CPNP on its efforts to become financially self-sustainable and urged all South Africans to "buy into" the park by buying a Go Green card.
Annual Go Green fees are R145 for a family card, R75 for an individual card and R37.50 for a pensioner's card.
Benefits include:
- Free entrance to the Cape of Good Hope, Boulders, Silvermine and Oudekraal for a year.
- Table Mountain Aerial Cableway: Adults pay student rates.
- Two Oceans Aquarium: Adults pay student rates.
- Robben Island. Children accompanying adults go free.
- Spier Estate. Range of discounts and "buy one, get one free" offers.
- Baxter Theatre. Range of discounts and "buy one, get one free" offers.
- Imax. Two free children's tickets with every two adult tickets bought.
- Getaway magazine. Discount on subscriptions.
- Flying Dutchman Funicular at Cape Point: Free rides between the start of operating hours and 11.00 in the morning, and between 15.00 and closing time in the afternoons.
- Two Oceans Restaurant at Cape Point: Go Green cardholders and a maximum of nine guests will receive a 10% discount on normal a la carte meals and drinks.
- Silver Tree Restaurant at Kirstenbosch offers the same deal as the Two Oceans Restaurant.
- Zevenwacht Estate offers a 10% discount on meals and beverages at its restaurant, plus a 10% discount on wines and cheeses purchased at its wine tasting centre.
- Muizenberg Toy Museum offers a 50% entrance fee discount to the holders of family Go Green cards, and free entrance to holders of individual and pensioner cards.
- Gugu le Afrika Restaurant in Khayelitsha offers a 5% discount on its already affordable traditional African cuisine.
- The Khayelitsha Craft Market. 5% discount on purchases.
- The Word of Birds in Hout Bay. Adults pay pensioner/student rate, pensioners and students pay child rates, and children pay lowest school group rate.
Go Green cards can be purchased from the CPNP's Head Office at Westlake, at the Boulders in Simon's Town, the V&A Waterfront visitor centre, Table Mountain Aerial Cableway, Peninsula Tourism's seven offices, and soon at the Cape of Good Hope gate.

The Queen's Truncheon
The regiment which later became the 2nd King Edward VII's Own Gurkha Rifles (The Sirmoor Rifles) was raised in northern India in 1815 as the Sirmoor Battalion, a local corps until 1861 when it became a regular regiment in the Bengal Army. It fought gallantly in several battles long before the Indian Mutiny of 1857-58, but it was during the Mutiny that it particularly distinguished itself when, for more than three months, it held a key post on the ridge which was the main British position during the Siege of Delhi. During that Siege and the assault to capture the City it suffered 327 dead and wounded out of 490 all ranks, and formed a strong affiliation with the 60th Rifles, The King's Royal Rifle Corps, with which it was constantly linked and intermingled throughout the battle.
Its conspicuous service was rewarded in 1858 by the Governor General-in-Council granting the rare distinction of carrying a third, honorary, Colour, to be inscribed "DELHI" in English, Hindi, and Persian. The Commander-in-Chief added to this by authorising a change of title from Sirmoor Battalion to Sirmoor Rifle Regiment, the soldiers to be called Riflemen instead of Sepoys and the privilege of wearing the scarlet facings on their uniforms as worn by the 60th.
Because Rifle Regiments did not carry Colours, the newly titled Sirmoor Rifle Regiment had to stop doing so, which meant that the privilege of carrying a third Colour was lost. To keep the distinction Her Majesty Queen Victoria authorised the replacement of the third Colour by a Truncheon. This Truncheon, made by Messrs Hunt and Roskell of London, was handed over to the Regiment by the Commander-in-Chief on a parade in Lahore in 1863 when it was received with a Royal Salute by the troops of the North-Western Army assembled for the occasion.
The Truncheon, which is about 6 feet high and made of bronze and silver, is carried on parade by the Truncheon Jemadar, whose post was added to the Establishment for the purpose, escorted by two Sergeants and two Corporals. Like a Sovereign's Colour it is greeted with a Royal salute when it appears or is marched off parade. Since 1953, when it was presented to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II shortly after her Coronation, it has been known as The Queen's Truncheon.
The Queen's Truncheon, in the custody and guardianship of the Trustees of The Royal Gurkha Rifles Regimental Trust, is now in service with The Royal Gurkha Rifles into which the 2nd Goorkhas was absorbed in 1994.
Replica available from the Gurkha Museum Shop (+44 (1962) 842832). (Height: 280 mm less base) See Shop Page.

Johannesburg commercial property market overview for q4 2011
Global professional property services firm Jones Lang LaSalle today released its Q4 2011 Research Report on the state of Johannesburg's office and industrial real estate market.
Office Market
Despite the last quarter of the year being economically tepid, improved take-up in rentals contributed to minimal increases in rental growth and reduced vacancies in some of the more prominent nodes in the Johannesburg office market.
Office take-up improved in prime areas, mainly in Sandton, Hyde Park and Rosebank, resulting in reduced vacancies in these and a number of other prime Johannesburg suburbs. A large portion of the development pipeline in office rentals is set for Sandton and Bryanston, with Rosebank expecting a major completion of the Standard Bank building on Oxford road in the second half of 2012.
Ndibu Motaung, Head of Research at Jones Lang LaSalle says, "Demand for office space in these suburbs is being driven by companies seeking convenience to transport hubs, particularly within the Gautrain reach, as well as consolidation due to operational efficiencies. But overall, it is interesting to note that demand for offices is somewhat stagnant as occupiers are merely moving between areas, leaving secondary suburbs with higher vacancies."
Although national vacancies increased in the last quarter from 10.2% to 10.4% according to the latest SAPOA/IPD vacancy survey, Johannesburg office vacancies decreased marginally (10.5% to 10.3%)overall in the same period, highlighting the resilience of the Johannesburg office market compared to other cities in the country.However, Johannesburg vacancies increased on an annual basis, from 9.9% in 2010 to 10.9% in 2011.
Continues Motaung, "Current market conditions in the office rental sphere continue to remain favourable to tenants, and are characterised by high vacancies, flat average gross rentals and a lower speculative development pipeline. The pace of speculative development has significantly slowed in Johannesburg as existing stock levels remain high, with a significant portion of the expected completions already being committed to corporate tenants, such as the Standard Bank building in Rosebank and the Alexander Forbes building in Sandton,"
Industrial Market
For its part, the industrial rental market experienced improved activity, again mainly in prime areas particularly within the Eastern areas of Johannesburg, with occupiers settling for secondary grade stock at the expense of softening rentals.The demand was largely realised in the small standard units market. As uncertainty in the economy prevailed, older buildings with more affordable rentals in prime industrial areas such as Meadowdale and has proved more attractive to small business. Companies consolidating operations and considering efficient utilisation of current facilities are also driving demand.
Gross rentals for a prime building in a prime location remain stable, average rentals for smaller units decreased marginally despite increased take-up. This is reflective of landlords' willingness to reduce rentals in order to ease vacancies. Other notable incentives provided by landlords included shorter leases averaging two years in length. The industrial property market remains tenant favourable characterised by reduced rentals in the mini units markets, shorter lease tenure with a reduced speculative development pipeline.
Concludes Motaung, "It is anticipated that current industrial market conditions will continue in the next 12 to 18 months. Due to the lower speculative developments, we anticipate further take-up to continue as the market absorbs existing stock, resulting in lower vacancies."
Both the office and industrial market findings should be understood in the context of the environment in which the economy has been operating. The backdrop to the final 3 months of 2011 saw mixed economic data with a contraction in domestic GDP, improvements in manufacturing production as well as marginal improvements in business and consumer demand. Despite these improvements in business confidence, the South African economy is set to face tougher times in the coming year, proving that it is not necessarily immune to the problems faced by the global debt crisis.

Product Review (submitted on December 6, 2012):
The smaller pieces escape the tea infuser but most will sink to the bottom (or I just drink them). The package was separately sealed in foil inside the tin. The leaves appear to be high quality and are very fresh. I can smell the spinach aroma most. Different flavor than other green teas I have had but in a good way. It was good with skim milk, too.


text: When London's famed Chelsea FC take the pitch away from Stamford Bridge later this year, the Blues will don a brand new away kit from adidas. Ditching the predominately white look of last season's campaign, the 2014/15 away shirt takes inspiration from the famous yellow kits of the club's past and looks to the likes of Peter Osgood in the 1960s and 1970s, Clive Walker in the 1980s, Gianfranco Zola in the 1990s, and Frank Lampard's memorable winner in the 2009 FA Cup final against Everton. The result is a slick bright yellow design with with club's signature blue accents throughout. The decidedly retro shirt will soon be available at adidas stockists alongside the Blues' 2014/15 home kit and can be pre-ordered now via the club's official online store.

MIDDLEBURG - Midd-West had a hot start, but Belleville Mennonite had an answer.
In the first period.
But the Mustangs converted too much and Belleville Mennonite struggled in the second, and the vacuum it created was too much for the Thunder to crawl out of.
Article Photos
Sentinel photo by CRAIG UREY
Midd-West's Chloe Wagner drives to the basket as Belleville's Melissa Yoder defends her in a non-league girls basketball game Thursday night at Midd-West High School.
Midd-West won the non-league girls basketball contest Thursday, 53-33.
The difference in the second period was Chloe Wagner. The diminutive sophomore guard played with poise and aggression, nailing the basket with a jump shot unexpected of someone below the roller coaster limit.
"She's one of the few girls on the team that has a jump shot," Midd-West coach Dave Fadale said. "She's got to get a little more arc on it at times. But she gets off the ground quick."
She's pretty speedy on the horizontal plane, too, and that's one of the reasons she was able to drive the Mustangs into a commanding lead. Her eight-point second represented nearly half the points for her team in that stanza, in which the Mustangs piled up 17 for a 30-15 lead when the teams headed to the locker room.
Thunder coach Ally Zook said she got what she wanted out of the gate, but not enough after that. Midd-West dropped the first three buckets, but Mollie Morgan went downtown twice to keep it close, and the game was briefly tied on a Grace Peachey 2-pointer.
"I was really pleased with how my girls played," Zook said. "The way it started, I was surprised. We haven't been able to start like that at all this season. I challenged them to do that, and they did it."
She was happy for Peachey, who struggled later in the game, something that became a factor as Midd-West piled up the points.
"She was doing better than what she has been. It's been awhile since she picked it up," Zook said. "She's been struggling the last couple games. She did better tonight - I was as happy with her tonight as I have been."
Belleville Mennonite was able to avoid a ton of turnovers despite being pressured - hard in the opening frame, when Fadale put a zone press on the Thunder. But he eventually backed off and worked the ball.
"We're not always as aggressive in (the press) as we should be," he said. "I like to have the guards pressure the ball so their guards can't find the open people. And we don't always trap well. For some reason we always have a hard time closing that sideline trap."
But with a new offense that's as young as some of his players, and the impact of weather closings that keep the teams out of the gym, it was a struggle at times to see what Midd-West was actually trying to do, aside from the obvious.
"We executed things better tonight. We're still getting our timing down," Fadale said. "We did a good job denying the ball. We were a little quicker than them. I think we took advantage of that."
The onslaught continued in the third; the Mustangs had a 44-23 edge going into the last eight minutes, the only time Belleville Mennonite was able to mount a scoring attack.
Morgan Shirk's steady presence on the floor was good for a game-high 16 points. Wagner finished with 15 and Brianna Beiler chipped in 12.
Peachey and Morgan each tallied nine for the Thunder.
Belleville Mennonite travels to Harrisburg Academy today, while Midd-West hosts Danville Saturday.

Siam Nara
With the cold weather, the food that always come to mind is pho. The other night I wasn't in the mood for pho, but I couldn't think of anything else I wanted. We were on our way to Pho Ban Mai to give it a second look when I saw Siam Nara and remembered I wanted to check it out. So we quickly changed our plans.
Siam Nara is a Thai restaurant. I hadn't done my research so I wasn't sure what to expect. Inside, there are quite a few tables and booths and the decor consists of a lot of gold plated statues.
When I opened the menu, I was surprised by the wide amount of offerings. I'm fairly clueless when it comes to Thai food, but I enjoy trying new dishes I haven't tried before.
Green papaya salad with shrimp, cherry tomatoes and peanuts
This wasn't my favorite version of green papaya salad. I found the flavors a little too bland, especially will all the raw shredded cabbage and carrots that accompanied the salad.
Gang Phed Ped Yang (Roasted duck, thai lychees, cherry tomatoes, with red curry served in hot pot)
I liked that the dish came out bubbly and hot. I was a little disappointed by the duck. Most of the duck pieces were just skin and fat and not much meat. The addition of red tomatoes and lychees added a sweetness that counteracted the spiciness well.
The curry came with either white or brown rice. I chose brown. I really liked the rice container.
Siam Noodles Soup
Hot and sour broth, fish balls, shrimp, minced pork, fried wontons, bean sprouts, crushed peanuts
The bowl of noodle soup was huge. We chose the wide flat noodles as our noodle choice. Fh and I split the noodle soup and were barely able to finish it.
The dishes here were quite spicy. The server who took our order advised us to order low on the scale of 1 to 10, and yet the dishes were still pretty spicy. FH was sweating up a storm. He liked everything but found it all so spicy.
We were really happy with the service though. We were constantly checked on and the staff were all very polite.
Overall the dishes were a bit hit and miss. Of course we only tried three dishes. We'll have to come back and try more.

Hey Kirbie,
I have been to this place myself. I tried the boat noodles, which I think is the best version I had in SD Thai restaurants. I have been wanting to go back. We should go together next time and try more dishes!
Being Vietnamese, it's always easy to go with Pho first, but I also love Thai! Good review! This place is pretty close to me (maybe 10-15 min away), so I may check it out in the near future! I've been seriously craving Thai recently.

I've been meaning to write about some TV shows that I watched this past summer, but due to my busy schedule, I never got around to it. Instead, I'm going to take a look back at some of these shows over a small series of blogs.
In this entry, I'm going to discuss "Rock of Love" - the VH1 reality show featuring Bret Michaels as he attempts to find his "Rock Star Girlfriend".
That's all I can say after watching "Rock of Love". Unfortunately, I missed the first few episodes and didn't start watching it until there were 8 or so women remaining, but now I'm hooked. The show also earned itself a "Season Pass" on my TiVo to guarantee I haven't missed any more episodes.
A little about the concept of this show:
It's basically like "The Bachelor" or any other reality dating show. The bachelor of the show is the lead singer of Poison, and Mechanicsburg's very own Bret Michaels. The show apparently started out with twenty women who were all vying to be Bret's "Rock Star Girlfriend" and has been narrowing down the field week by week. Since I missed the first few episodes, I'm assuming Bret must have eliminated multiple women, but since I've been watching, just a single woman is sent packing each week.
On each show, the women are usually broken up into teams and then participate in some form of competition. One week they had to design an album cover. Another week they had a dirt bike race. Another week was a football game. The winners are then treated to a group date with Bret and one woman on the team will have an individual date with him. During the eliminations, Bret meets with all of the women and instead of giving the women a rose, he presents them with a backstage pass and asks them if they want to stay in his house and continue to rock his world.
For me, the most fascinating thing about this show is watching how these women act. They range in age from early 20's to probably late 30's in some cases (I'm sure they would deny that) and they come from a variety of backgrounds, but there seems to be an unusually high percentage of dancers in the mix. And by "dancers", I'm not talking about ballet dancers...
To say these women don't all get along very well is a bit of an understatement. They all want Bret and some of them will do practically anything to accomplish that. One woman named Lacey is a perfect example of this. The woman always stirs the pot at every opportunity. She has been extremely confrontational and although she denies being manipulative and conniving, her actions on the show speak differently.
I was sure that Bret would kick her off some weeks because other women would go to him and tell him about Lacey's actions, but he continually kept her around. The man obviously saw something in her that he liked... but I honestly don't know what that was. I mean, she really isn't that attractive and I thought that it was funny when another woman said that Lacey looked like a man.
Well, Bret finally eliminated Lacey on the episode where he got to meet the parents of the three remaining women. During that episode, Lacey's father told Bret that Lacey had her own money and that if they were ever going to get married, Bret would need to sign a Pre-Nup. Ummm... yeah. Obviously the father doesn't know too much about Bret Michaels.
During that same episode, Lacey's father confronted Bret while he was working out and the situation got a little uncomfortable for Bret. Like most reality shows, they cut away to show a short "interview" where the individuals discuss the events. They showed Bret and he said at the time Lacey's father was there, he was thinking "Where's Big John when you need him??" (Big John is Bret's friend, tour manager and head of security... and his name fits him.) The show then cut away to show Big John asleep on the sofa.
Anyhow, it was nice to see Lacey finally get eliminated on that show. I'm sure that her father's actions contributed to her elimination. (And that's a good thing!)
The show is now down to the final two women: Heather and Jes. Heather is a 32-year old (uh-huh....) stripper from Las Vegas while Jes is a 23-year old hair stylist from Chicago, but I thought she said she's from Los Angeles on the show. It's kind of funny because Jes seems very mature for her age while Heather (who had earlier formed an alliance with Lacey) certainly doesn't act her age a lot of the time.
I thought the finale was going to be this week, but it's not on until next week (the weekend of the September 30th). This week's episode is a "clip show" which features some previously unseen footage from the show, including a scene where Lacey placed raw chicken inside the pillow cases of some of the other women. Nice....
If I were Bret, I don't think I'd have a very hard decision to make. Heather is pretty nasty and Jes is really cute. From the previews, it looks like Bret will be picking Heather because Jes is afraid to open up because she's afraid Bret won't pick her. If you ask me, that's a pretty valid reason not to get too emotionally involved on a reality show! Maybe that's just a curveball the producers are throwing us in the previews... so we think Heather is going to win.
I think I might have found another spoiler, though. If you go to both of their MySpace pages (the links are above with their names), Heather lists her status as "single" while Jes's status is "In a relationship". Hmmm.....
By the way, this all reminds me of the time I went to see Bret Michaels when he played at the Dragonfly back in the summer of 2005. Me and my friend were lined up outside waiting to get in to see him and some young girl passed by with a group of people. She made a comment about how she was surprised so many people were lined up to see Bret Michaels because he's old. She also said "you'd think Eminem was playing". I was tempted to say "I wonder how many people will be willing to pay to see Eminem in twenty years", but I kept my mouth shut.
And that reminds me... did Poison play at Hershey this year??? I would have liked to have seen them, but I didn't see them on the schedule. Maybe they played way back in June? I thought they always played the area later in the summer, so I didn't bother to check the Hershey schedule until around the Fourth of July.
VH1 airs this show at various times throughout the week and you can probably even catch replays of older shows on the weekends if you are interested. The finale airs Sunday (September 30th) at 9:00 PM but they also usually air new episodes that morning at 11:00 AM, so you can get a jump on everyone else by watching it then. You can also watch clips and get all kinds of backstage info from VH1.com.
