Banking On the Surf for Everyday Exercise
Most bankers start their day with a hot shower and big cup of coffee. Kevin Skelton arrives at his job as head of investment banking for Bank of America BAC 0.59 % Merrill Lynch Australia, in Sydney, after surfing the waves and taking a shower on the beach.
The 54-year-old is among a handful of corporate types who paddle out to the south end of iconic Bondi Beach almost every weekday, sometimes as early as 5:30 a.m., in order to catch the first possible wave.
When the surf is good, he says, "I'll go for up to two hours, and on weekends, up to six hours."
He surfs in all kinds of bad weather—rain, thunder, lightning—and still remembers the times when he actually surfed in the hail. "When it's hailing, I get in the water and put my board over my head and wait for it to pass because it hurts," says Mr. Skelton.
Some of his clients and colleagues use surfing as a conversation opener or closer, and some have even become surfers themselves, with Mr. Skelton's encouragement.
He's surfed six to seven days each week over the past four decades except for a two-year stint in the early 1990s, when he worked for Merrill Lynch in New York. He says his family—he's married with three children ages 15, 19 and 21—accommodate his obsession because they know he is happier when he's surfing. His children get him surfing wax, instead of socks, for holidays.
The Workout
A major part of his workout is paddling out to catch waves, which works the entire upper body, particularly the shoulders, and triceps. Being a strong swimmer is important to being a strong surfer, he says. Mr. Skelton says that when he first started surfing he would do a lot of swimming—sometimes as much as a mile—to catch a lost surfboard. "Surfers these days aren't as swim-fit as we were because there's an ankle strap that keeps you attached to your board," he says.
He only goes to the gym when he travels for work. He watches financial-markets news while on the cross-trainer for 30 minutes, and spends 30 minutes using free weights to perform bicep curls, lat pull-downs, chest presses and shoulder presses.
Mr. Skelton also loves surfing's mental-health benefits. "When you surf, you get away from everything and you don't think about anything else except surfing."
Gear & Cost
Mr. Skelton's favorite surfboard is made by Australia's JS Industries. It's 6 feet 2 inches in length, 20.5 inches wide and 2.5 inches thick. "I can surf a one-foot wave through to a 6-foot on it pretty comfortably." The board sells for $860. A board bag for traveling on vacation costs $150.
He has a total of 15 fiberglass or carbon-fiber surfboards, some custom-made. They cost between $900 and $1,200. They are different sizes for different surf: The larger the wave, the longer the surfboard. Traction pads and ankle straps cost around $30 each. One bar of surfboard wax costs about $2.
In spring and summer, Mr. Skelton wears board shorts with a rash vest to protect against the sun. To keep his chest warm when it's cooler, he wears a Billabong short vest (around $40). In the fall, he wears a Billabong short john (around $65) and a sleeveless wet suit that goes to the knees. In the winter, he wears a Rip Curl steamer, a full-length wet suit. Steamers range from $120 to $1,200. He always wears a Rip Curl waterproof watch, which ranges from $80 to $750. "I need to know when it's time to come in," he says.
The Diet
Mr. Skelton, 5 feet 7 inches and 176 pounds, doesn't keep a strict diet. In investment banking, he says, there is a lot of dining out with clients and he tends to put on weight. "Clearly you don't want your surfboard to sink, so you watch what you eat." His favorite post-surf breakfast is a chai latte and a piece of banana bread at his desk.
Sun Issues
Because he's been surfing since he was 10 years old and wore minimal sunscreen as a youth, Mr. Skelton gets a skin-cancer checkup every two years. He uses Banana Boat SPF 30, four hours water resistant. "In the tropics, a tough sunscreen like zinc is essential," he says.
Shark Sightings
"I've seen many, many sharks when I've been surfing, but never been attacked," he says. "They're generally not there to eat you." The biggest shark he's seen was in Western Australia's Margaret River, a 13-foot-long white pointer that swam past him and two other people.
"We just watched it pass, looked at each other in shock, then paddled back into a pack of about 15 [others surfers]," he says. After about half an hour, he says, they went back to the same spot and kept surfing.
Where the Swells Are
Kevin Skelton has surfed around the world. Here, five of his favorite spots.
Macaronis Resort in the Mentawai Islands off Sumatra, Indonesia: "The water is warm around 28 degrees [Celsius; 82.4 degrees Fahrenheit] as you are in the tropics. It is remote, which is a great feeling of adventure. You can only get there by boat."
Broken Head in Byron Bay, New South Wales, Australia: "It is a beautiful headland and you are often surfing with dolphins. Byron Bay is a surfing mecca that attracts hippies, surfers and musicians. The Blues Festival at Easter is not to be missed."
Bondi Beach, Sydney, Australia: "I can see onto the beach from my house, which is a bonus. In summer it is crowded with tourists and locals enjoying the sun, sand and surf. In winter no one is around and the surf is bigger. The same hard-core surf crew is there daily."
Margaret River, Australia: "I grew up surfing at this break. It is a kilometer to paddle out to the break and when we first started surfing there ankle straps hadn't yet been invented. It wasn't uncommon for the offshore wind to carry a board out to sea."
Steamer Lane, Santa Cruz, Calif.: "There is a sign that warns you that people have drowned here—very comforting! The locals, who are hard core and world famous for surfing a nearby large wave break, were really friendly."

Skip to comments.Caption Hillary prominently sporting her latest election accessory - a cross around her neck.
Posted on 10/31/2006 8:45:35 AM PST by redstates4ever
(Excerpt) Read more at flickr.com ...
Could she be any more obvious
I'm surprised it's not burning into her flesh.
I wonder what she'll do about the cross that gets burned into her vampire skin?
When's she gonna wear that thing on the streets of the Middle East?
Yep, she's always been a praying person, so she says. So she wants to show that even she, a liberal Democrat, has religious values that guide her life and her public service.
But, do many people in middle America really believe that about her?????
Old news... we decided it was just another cynical ploy for votes by the Beast about a week ago.
I guess the five-carat diamond-studded cross didn't focus group will...
Oh brother!!
"SEE?? It's not true! Crosses don't hurt vampires!!!"
Yes, now that this cross has been properly defiled it doesn't burn my flesh anymore...
Bears repeating, I think. Just another reminder of how Dems will say and do anything for power.
Gimme a break. She really does think the average voter is stupid.
Who does she think she's kidding? Everyone knows she's a communist, not a Christian. You can't hide behind a cross. It's insulting to me and to all true Christians that she wears the cross. Does she really think she's going to get the moral vote, let alone the Christian vote? She's Pro-abortion, pro-partial birth abortion, pro-gay marriage, etc, etc.
yeah, I suppose you are right.
Why do people photographed with politicians always seem to have the same fake happy face?
I guess the allergy shots are working.
I noticed right away it is a necklace that will not allow the cross to fall out of view into the blouse. She wants it right there for the intended viewers to see.
Please, don't enlarge it any more! MY EYES!
She thinks the VRWC tied her to a cross.
Hillary is the AntiChrist. She should be wearing it upside down.
Look at all those fawning dopes around her oblivious to her utter phoniness.
Didn't her philandering husband also carry a Bible around at certain events to attract voters? It seems that the Left loves to preach separation of Church and State, unless it will score a couple more votes.
LOL. Her crosses are getting bigger. LOLOL.
That "woman" is as evil as hell. She should've worn it upside down - then it would've looked more appropriate on her. The last time I was this offended was when Bubba took Communion in a Catholic Church.
"Gimme That Old Time Religion"?
Wouldn't she be wearing it upside down?
We must remember; "For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishment: but unto us which are saved it is the power of God." (1 Corinthians 1:18)
See #29
This woman is stupid enough to think we're more stupid than she.
That's not a crucifix (a cross with the crucified Christ), it's a cross. And she's actually worn various crosses off and on for some time. Just nobody noticed til the election neared.
To Hillery: I are not!
Is it on loan from Madonna?
Is that what it's called?
--oh.....what a tempting thought.
Madonna and rappers wear one too.
And with about as much genuine purpose.
Hillary Clone Tries To Tarnish Original With Cross.
Even a heterosexual male engineer like me can see that it doesn't work. Wrong color, and the chain's too short and chunky to look good on a 59 year old battleaxe.
It certainly does suggest "stage prop."
Ok, but to what does she pray?
Or did she really say, "I've always been a preying person."?
It depends on what your meaning of "PRAY/PREY" is.

This is an exciting year for PWYA as we turn 10 years old! We are setting our sights on expanding to become a more vibrant, active, and meaningful association for the next 10 years and beyond. To make that happen we need your help and the help of others who believe in Youth Ministry, Youth Workers, and the need to have people connecting, upholding, and inspiring Youth Workers both locally and nationally. One of our goals this year is to get more people actively involved in our ongoing efforts to be a critical support to anyone involved in Youth Ministry, and as such, we are expanding our leadership structure to include not only an Executive Committee (the Core Team), but four new Ministry Teams. We hope that you will consider nominating yourself or someone else to serve in one of these capacities! Please share these opportunities for service with other youth workers.

It was a week of needed renewal, rest, and re-energizing.
To get a sense of the week or re-live it, please check out our photos on our Flickr page!

1) What piece of advice would you share with other youth workers?
Be Patient. Be Flexible. Be Strong. Be Yourself. Our calling is so full of ups, downs, joys, sorrows, and people looking down on us that it can be really easy to feel defeated and want to give up. Don't! The church and the youth need you. Listen to what God is calling you to do and be a difference maker.read more...

For those of you who don't know, there is a better way to cut felt than pinning patterns or attempting to trace patterns using a marker. Seriously, if you don't know this secret it will change your felt cutting life forever! And hey, you can even use this technique for fabric. I cut the entire alphabet both upper case and lover case letters in the time it takes to watch an episode of So You Think You Can Dance. That included tracing too peeps. [And if you want to know how to make the felt easel, check out that tutorial HERE].
So, what's the secret? Freezer Paper! I am in love with this stuff. I keep a roll downstairs to use for Cindy's crafts and painting projects and a roll in my craft room. Love it.
All you have to do is trace your pattern, picture, whatever you want to cut onto the paper. You can even free hand your own pattern right on there.
Iron it onto the felt until it stays. Iron the shiny end onto the felt, the papery feeling side should be on top.
And now that you know the secret to cutting felt just doesn't seem all that bad anymore does it? Put away the pins and the markers and go get some freezer paper. Be sure to stay tuned because I have some fun felt patterns coming your way.

I am very pleased to return as co-chair for LOVE HER Vancouver 2016. Our family has experienced first-hand the challenge that Ovarian cancer can present. We are fortunate to be one of the lucky ones whose family member fought and survived this awful disease. Sadly not all women who are presented with the challenge of Ovarian cancer succeed in conquering this terrible illness. Ovarian cancer is not currently fortunate to have an early screening measure that is available for women. Unlike breast cancer, there is no annual exam that can be taken to provide early detection. Our role as it relates to this event and as a team is to assist in raising both awareness and funds for Ovarian cancer with the end goal being that of finding a cure.
Cam Watt is a Strategic Marketing Manager for Pacific Coast Fruit Products Ltd. located in Abbotsford, BC. Pacific Coast Fruit Products has been in business for 28 years. Our company processes juice concentrates and purees for the beverage and jam industry. Our products are shipped globally around the world. Our business is owned by two great women who are very supportive of local farmers and as well supportive of initiatives that preserve farmland and the environment.
I am honored for the opportunity to co-chair the 2016 LOVE HER Vancouver event. I have witnessed the impact ovarian cancer has had on the lives of those fighting this disease during treatment and how it has affected their family and friends. I have known women affected by ovarian cancer, which included my hairdresser of 22 years, and a few community friends who did not survive this devastating disease. As a community, we unite when we share common goals and experiences. Through community spirit and outreach we can make a difference in the lives of so many through awareness, prevention and support. For these reasons I truly believe events like LOVE HER bring us together to help unite a shared vision for hope, health and happiness.

Virginia Greene was a leading light for the business community in Vancouver.. Prior to her passing from ovarian cancer in 2010, Virginia and a group of her friends organized a luncheon aimed at increasing awareness. Over a thousand people attended, their eyes were opened and lives were forever changed.
The Virginia Greene Award recognizes an individual's outstanding contribution to the advancement of knowledge and research pertaining to ovarian cancer. This year's recipient will be presented with the Award at LOVE HER in Vancouver.

Be Still My Beating Heart
... Foreign in its rhythm and still all too familiar.
A week spent snorkelling, idly swimming, lying on rocks that warmed our hearts, staring without intent at a horizon vacant of white caps, admiring the super highway of yachts, collecting rocks that were abandoned at the end of the day.
Haute Corte. Forever in our hearts and forever grateful we will be.
Tuesday We arrived in Calvi on the eastern coast of Corsica, at lunchtime after a train trip south of Bastia then across the island to the opposite coast. It is a magical place, similar to Amalfi or Sorrento on the Italian coast, situated on a large bay, with lovely white sandy beaches. The old walled city sits on one side of the bay and above the city as it is now. We found our hotel and were delighted with our choice. The rooms are nice, gorgeous ...

... each had a small sampling of gazpacho, pistachio cream over cous cous, some kind of custard and a lovely serving of caviar over some other fish roe. They were all delish, as were the cold beers. Eldon's concern is what this little tray of extras is going to cost us.
We went back to the room and rested. Around 1:30 we got out our cheese and ham from yesterday and shared a bottle of wine.
I napped and got ready for my massage.

We made dinner reservations for a restaurant right across the street from our hotel. Our hotel, by the way, is lovely. I plan on spending most of my day tomorrow around the pool. I also have a 5:00 appointment with a masseuse for an hour and a half Thai massage. I can hardly wait.

Brother Introduces New Ultra Compact Personal Laser Printers Starting at under $150.00
LAS VEGAS --(Business Wire)-- Jan. 3, 2005 -- New HL-2040 and Network-Ready HL-2070N Set the Pace for Compact, Affordable, No Compromise Stand-Alone and Network Printers
Brother International Corporation today introduces its newest personal laser printers, the ultra-compact HL-2040 and HL-2070N. The HL-2040 ($149.99 estimated street price) is the successor to the award-winning HL-1440 personal laser printer, with even faster print speeds and a space-saving design almost 40% smaller than its predecessor. The HL-2070N ($229.99 estimated street price) features the same small footprint and print speeds and adds a built-in Ethernet print server for sharing on home and home office wired or wireless networks. The new models will be available starting in January 2005.
The sleek new HL-2040 and HL-2070N offer print speeds of up to 20ppm and outstanding print quality via Brother's HQ1200 (up to 2400 x 600 dpi) resolution. Both printers are Windows(R) and Mac(R) compatible and feature a 250-sheet input paper capacity, as well as USB 2.0 full-speed and parallel interfaces as standard.
"We continue to see strong consumer demand for affordable personal monochrome laser printers for the home and home office," said Jeff Sandler, Brother's Director of Marketing, Printers. "With the new HL-2040 and HL-2070N, we are clearly addressing this market, while setting a new standard for printer size, functionality and performance at extremely compelling consumer price points."
With the introduction of these two new models, Brother further strengthens its offerings in the personal monochrome laser market segment. These new lasers provide an economical, low-cost alternative to consumer color inkjet printers, and deliver an alternative output solution for frustrated users seeking to reduce their everyday printing costs.
Brother also sees the market for low-cost monochrome laser printers with built-in network interfaces as offering continued strong growth potential. IDC projects the U.S. wireless home and home office network segment to grow at a 36% CAGR between 2005 and 2008(1) . The new HL-2070N is ideally positioned to meet this rapidly expanding market segment, by offering these customers an affordable solution for low cost printer sharing.
Beyond the features detailed above, the HL-2040 also sports a two-tone gray color scheme as well as 8MB memory capacity. The network-ready HL-2070N includes all the features of the HL-2040 but adds PCL(R)6 emulation, a built-in Ethernet network interface, 16MB of standard memory, and a dark charcoal, two-tone color scheme. (See attached Fact Sheet for details on specs and features). A toner-save feature is also available.
Both printers share the same patented two-piece toner/drum consumables. They ship with a starter toner cartridge that has a print capacity of approximately 1,500 pages(2) and a full, long-life (12,000 pages) DR-350 drum unit(3). Replacement TN-350 toner cartridges ($59.99 SRP) have a capacity of approximately 2,500 pages(1). The easy-to-install cartridges are seated in the DR-350 drum unit ($114.99 SRP).
An optional external network adapter is available for the HL-2040, and either model can also be configured for wireless printing via an optional external wireless 802.11b print server.
Bridgewater, New Jersey, is the corporate headquarters for Brother in the Americas, from Canada to South America. Brother has fully integrated sales, marketing services, manufacturing, research and development capabilities located in the U.S. In addition to its headquarters in Bridgewater, New Jersey, Brother has facilities in California, Illinois, Massachusetts and Tennessee, as well as subsidiaries in Ohio, Canada, Brazil, Chile, Argentina and Mexico.

All of these have an environmental impact worse than meat due to genetic modification, pesticides, monoculture or transport methods.
Also ask if they ever throw clothes away, buy clothes new or buy GM clothes or clothes made with chemical dyes. The environmental impact of the cloth industry is worse than that of well-raised meat also.

Perfection is entirely individual. Any philosophy or pursuit that encourages individuality has merit in that it frees people. Any that encourages shackles only has merit in that it shows you how wrong and desperate the human mind can get in its pursuit of truth.
I get blunter and more narcissistic by the day.
I'd apologize, but...
So we went to the local agricultural fair, in Lac Brome Quebec. I have never seen such a collection of genetic mistakes and fat people in all my life. Man was jeff Foxworthy right about State fairs.. I must have seen 30 different people massively morbidly obese on moterized wheel chairs tooteling about sucking back the junk food. I had never noticed just how baddly off our society is but this place really slammed it home.
They were selling this battered deep fried onion floret for 6 bucks, must have sold thousands during the day I was there. I was not going to even try a bite as I had no idea what it was battered in. They were selling these great big elk sausages battered and deep fried. somebody was selling hamburgers that were battered and deep fried...
What the hell people is with the deep frying everything? I understand about being obese and it being hard to not eat all the time but still where does personal responsibility come to play in food choices? You have to know this is not your best choice but an onion floret, a huge soft drink and 2 chilli dogs? All the while sitting on that electric wheelchair paid for by medicare?
sigh there is no hope.

Two huge boxes of donuts in the break room today. As I walk into the office, EVERYONE is walking out of there with one. In the past, I would've had to engage some major willpower to not have one but now I don't even have a craving and they don't look good.
At an office cook out last week, my boss asks if I ate and tells me, "there's healthy options too like turkey burgers and veggie burgers."
I cringed inside but explained I had a couple of beef burgers so I was good. Eating the CAFO burgers sure made me appreciate grass fed yumminess.

I was lucky, I got out last week at 13.20. New CFO quitting like that bodes many questions. I guess thats why they released their numbers this morn and they look good. Billing irregularities can be serious if true. No telling how big a drop this can take
You would think an experienced CFO from a large trucking background would obviously not let a revenues from one quarter to another upset him, as I agree it is a common occurance. There exits the possibility that it is much more serious than that and he did not want to get impicated.
Billing irregularities typically mean that revenue may hve been pushed or pulled from one quarter to another.Having followed the management of a family trucking for many years i know how these matters can come up and how they cannot have any impact on the balance sheet or income statement iin any consequential manner.Frozen trucking is a premium cost business and with FFEX's position in this key market their revenue will continue to climb rapicly.this is a short term and unbelievablely cheap buying opportunity.
We'll I'm screwed. I just bought the breakout. 10 weeks on the job as CFO is not good. Could be related party issues.BTW... how did you become the first poster on this thread. There are a couple of stocks that I follow that don't have a thread yet and I would like to start one.
It may have been a personality thing with the new CFO. Is so it may be a case of sour grapes and it looks like the business is going extremely well. I think mgmnt need to do a press release and give more detail. This may be a buying opprtunity in near future, Hang in there.

CARE (Cooperative for Assistance and Relief Everywhere)
Rating: 2.76 stars 21 21 reviews
151 Ellis St NE Atlanta GA 30303 USA
CARE is a leading humanitarian organization dedicated to fighting poverty and social injustice. We place special emphasis on investing in women and girls because our six decades of experience show that their empowerment benefits whole communities. We know that when equipped with the proper resources, women have the power to help whole families and entire communities escape poverty. Our mission is to serve individuals and families in the poorest communities in the world. Drawing strength from our global diversity, resources and experience, we promote innovative solutions and are advocates for global responsibility. We facilitate lasting change by: •Responding to natural disasters and emergencies, with an emphasis on meeting the needs of women, children and the elderly. •Helping improve the health — and save the lives — of pregnant women, new mothers and their babies. •Helping women access loans and start small businesses so they can provide for their families. •Helping girls around the world go to school and working with communities to improve education for all children. •Delivering health and nutrition services to millions of children and their family members.
In fiscal year 2011, CARE worked in 84 countries around the world, supporting 1,015 poverty-fighting projects to reach almost 130 million people, over half of whom are women. This included providing emergency and disaster relief services and supplies to those in need, including more than 1.8 million women, children and families suffering from the famine and drought in the Horn of Africa. In fiscal year 2011: •CARE's emergency preparedness, response and recovery programs reached nearly 12.5 million people, with special emphasis on the needs of those disproportionately affected by disasters: women, children and the elderly. •CARE's programs worked to reach nearly six million people with information and tools to promote gender equality and empower women to claim their rights. CARE's women's empowerment programs help women and men promote women's rights, provide solidarity and support groups for women, work to prevent sexual and gender-based violence, and ensure services and support for survivors of sexual and gender-based violence. •CARE worked to improve food security for 8 million people by providing nutritional support and promoting sustainable agriculture, and reached more than 26 million children and their family members with information and services to improve child health and nutrition. •CARE worked to help more than 7 million people improve their household income through increased access to financial and non-financial services, participation in village savings and loan associations, market linkages and diversified livelihoods. •CARE's programs worked to provide more than 5 million people with improved access to school and better quality education. •CARE worked to reach 41 million women, men and children with information and services to improve maternal health. •Through health and social services, CARE worked to help more than 16 million people protect themselves from HIV, reduce stigma associated with the illness, and mitigate its negative economic impact. •CARE worked to help more than 27 million people develop sustainable water management practices and helped communities improve hygiene and sanitation practices.

Good luck getting off their mailing list. I have sent multiple requests in writing AND a personal letter to senior management and still they are happy to harass my frail, ill parents. It's unfortunate that any "care" the might have ends when they smell a dollar. BTW - they were warned that we would take this route to try to convince them to let my severely ill parents alone!

I have supported CARE in the past, but with improved information, I am no longer interested in doing so. The decision to pay the CEO over $406,000 is astonishing, distressing, and inappropriate. I will not contribute to that.

CARE's work with women in highlighting the plight of forced marriage and child marriage is invaluable. I became interested in CARE because I care deeply about forced marriage, and of course child marriage. However, forced marriage is something that I can relate to as I have been through a forced marriage myself, and know that women the whole world over need help to end this tradition of abuse and human rights violation. A forced marriage can scar a girl for life, can put her in a situation that no-one would ever want to be in or should have to be in. My own situation even though not a child marriage, had elements of a child marriage as I was engaged at the age of 14; and felt tremendous pressure to say "yes". People do not realize the power of cultural practices and that it is not easy as a girl of any age to say "no" to one's parents. Girls every day are being forced into marriages that they are unhappy with, and this unhappiness often leads to violence; because when one or both people in a marriage are unhappy, most often this bad situation can escalate, and terrible things can happen. We are now hearing of "honor killings" a lot, and many of these killings also are due to when a girl decides to be strong and say "no". We are very often victimized, and we need help. CARE can be counted on to help stop this harmful practice, and that is why I support CARE.

Last week we contacted CARE about the actions they are taking to improve their recent Charity Navigator ratings. CARE's response was quick and reassuring - and appears below. We plan to continue our long-term support of CARE since their efficiency is consistently 4 star and actions they have taken should help CARE regain a higher overall rating.
Response from CARE:
"Thank you for contacting CARE. Our current rating is impacted by having reduced revenue and program expenses due to two strategic decisions: to phase out monetization of food aid and to sell a microfinance institution. Our 2010 rating was affected by the fact that in the previous period we had higher revenue and expenses due to some extraordinary gifts and program expenses related to the Asian tsunami.
Aligning our programming with strategic development priorities can result in revenue and expense changes. And, like all international organizations, CARE experiences fluctuations in revenue and expense growth in response to global market forces.
It is important to remember that Charity Navigator's rating of CARE's operational efficiency consistently receives the highest possible rating, 4 stars. And CARE's excellence is recognized by accreditation from the Better Business Bureau and an A+ rating from the American Institute of Philanthropy.
Charity Navigator recognizes the limitations of its current system and is working with organizations, including CARE, to revise its system and determine new measures that will look not just at financial information but at a group's performance in relation to its objectives."

I've always had a love of crystals, gems, minerals and all those beautiful things that nature has created. So this DIY immediately caught my eye - and then I saw the part that said 'no tools required' and I was hooked! There are lots of shops on etsy selling crystals. My favourites are amethyst, pink druzy and carnelian. Layer them up or wear a single pendant on a long chain.

Come tomorrow the people of Haiti most likely won't even know the Super Bowl has been played. The devastation will still seem too great to overcome, and many of the children who's parents could barely provide for them already, will wake up parentless and unable to find an orphanage that isn't already full or stripped of all of it's resources.
Two young men are playing in this game tonight that represent the people and the hope they all so desperately need. Colts wide receiver Pierre Garcon, the son of Haitian immigrants and Saints linebacker Jonathan Vilma both spent time growing up in south Florida's "little Haiti". More importantly both of their extended families and their heritages remain on the island left devastated by the level seven earthquake that struck on January 12th.
It's two stories that took two vastly different routes to get to the same place at the same time. One starred on a powerhouse Division I football team, the other had a hard time getting into a Division III school, but both have made it to ultimate goal of every football player.
Tonight on football's biggest stage Pierre Garcon and Jonathan Vilma are representing the Haitian people not to give them hope, but to give us the incentive to provide hope for their families and countrymen.
As we watch two Haitian men fight with their teams to win victory on the football field lets take a look at their stories, and be reminded of those who are fighting for their lives on the island of Haiti.

The ballpark looked funereal at 10:35 p.m. with the result still in doubt. It was quiet enough to hear Scott Franzke's voice careen from the concourses onto the rows of empty blue seats. The mitts popped from the bullpens beyond center field. Willin Rosario jumped a first-pitch Cole Hamels fastball, and a single scream emanated from the stands.
Colorado won, 6-2, once Rosario's three-run blast in the seventh cracked a tie game. His Rockies teammates shouted and pounded Rosario when he returned to the visiting dugout, and their celebration was audible through the empty stadium.
The second-smallest crowd (23,159) this season paid to be at Citizens Bank Park. A 1-hour, 22-minute rain delay thinned the spectators. A cacophony of E-A-G-L-E-S chants and boos filled the air as the final outs were recorded.

Odlanier Solis-Varol Vekiloglu Bout Set For October 14
By Ruslan Chikov
Heavyweight boxer Odlanier Solis (17-1, 12KOs) will finally return to action on the 14th of October in Germany against Berliner Varol Vekiloglu (18-2-1, 10KOs). They will battle for the vacant IBF Intercontinental title. Solis was last seen suffering a knee injury and being unable to continue in the first round of his March clash with WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko.
Following his defeat, Solis, 31-years-old and a 2004 Olympic Gold medal winner, had to undergo a surgical procedure to correct the knee injury. Meanwhile, the protege of promoter Ahmet Öner has returned to his running exercises and he wants to make a big statement in the October fight.
"Odlanier has demonstrated in a single round that he is better than Vitali Klitschko and can beat the older brother," says Öner.
Solis believes that he will defeat Vekiloglu and go on to capture a world title - "As long as my knee holds up, nobody can stop me."
Odlanier Solis has told the media in Florida his knee has not healed and he won't be fighting until 2012.Comment by joe strong on 08-08-2011
at least he is back in 6 months...hope the knee holds up.he is still in the mix.Comment by edgarg on 08-08-2011

Lyndhurst Mine - Partial JV on Mining Concession - Polymetallic
Updated April 2016
Property Description and Location
These claims are wholly owned by Globex and are not subject to any underlying royalties or third party interests except for the Lyndhurst mining concession which is subject to a 1.5% NSR to certain original property vendors. A portion of the mining concession is currently joint ventured with local entrepreneur Agrégat-R-N inc.
Following this limited mining activity, surface exploration, including trenching and shallow drilling, were carried out by various companies prior to 1988. In 1988, Minnova Inc. completed an airborne EM (INPUT) survey and follow-up with DEEP-EM ground electromagnetic surveys, geological and lithogeochemical sampling, stripping and some diamond drilling.
From 1991 to 1993, Noranda Exploration carried out geological mapping, outcrop stripping, induced polarization and horizontal-loop electromagnetic surveys and diamond drilling, without encountering any significant new VMS mineralization. The property remained dormant until 1997.
Geological Setting
Exploration and Development
In 2000, Globex completed additional drilling in the Moses Zone area which returned two narrow zinc mineralization zones in massive sulphides, including 6.8% Zn, 33.0 gpt Ag/0.5 m and 5.2% Zn, 35.6 gpt Ag/2.9 m (hole L00-8B). Shallow drilling in 2001 and 2004 by Globex in the No.1 Zone (250.m east of the original Lyndhurst deposit), intersected mostly narrow Cu/Zn/Ag/Au values with the better widths in the No.1 Zone including 1.36% Cu, 26.5 gpt Ag/7.38 m in hole L-04-02 at a vertical depth of 35 m in a brecciated high silica sulphide stringer zone hosted in rhyolite within a larger envelope of mineralization grading 0.83% Cu, 16.42 gpt Ag/17.2 m. Continued drilling of the shallow No. 1 Zone copper mineralization in 2007 (21 holes totaling 2,000 m) did not prove sufficiently encouraging to pursue the concept of potential open pit extraction. Between 2008 and 2010, new deep penetrating geophysical orientation tests were undertaken including; IP, magneto-tellurics and an airborne gravity survey in the vicinity of the Lyndhurst deposit, the #1 Copper-Silica Zone and Moses Zone. These surveys focused an 8 hole, relatively shallow drill program of 2,942 m which did not encounter any significant new VMS mineralization.
In 2011, a 56.5 km dipole-dipole IP survey at 100 m line separation was completed over the western half of the property, covering approximately 4.5 km of ground westward along strike from the known Lyndhurst/Moses Zone VMS occurrences. This survey work was successful in tracing several known mineralized trends including the historic Beattie zinc stringer zone, where selective historic grab samples assayed best values of 31.6% Zn, 3.0% Pb, 200 gpt Ag; 8.8% Zn, 33 gpt Ag; and 6.6% Zn, 31 gpt Ag. The wide array IP suggested geophysical continuation to depth (>200 m) of the disseminated and stringer sulphides found at surface at both the main Beattie Zinc showing and Beattie North zinc stinger zone, identifying priority drill targets.
In 2012, a single deep, 997 m drill hole (LYN-12-01) was completed to test for the presence of volcanogenic massive sulphides down dip from the surface rhyolite-hosted disseminated and stringer sphalerite zones of the Beattie Zinc Showing and Beattie North zinc stringer zone at vertical depths of 325 m and 650 m respectively. No significant zones of copper-/zinc-bearing massive sulphides were encountered although intermittent and wide (75-100 m core length) haloes of weak chalcopyrite or sphalerite, pyrite-quartz stringers and locally intense black chlorite alteration were intersected at both anticipated down dip projections of these surface occurrences. A borehole geophysical survey in Lyn-12-01, while responding to the multiple narrow Cpy stringers, failed to detect any off-hole conductor suggestive of the presence of a larger conductive massive sulphide lens within an estimated 100 m radius of the drill hole.
In 2013 a review of all available exploration data along with targeted surface mapping were undertaken and it was concluded that the property scale exploration potential for blind, potentially large VMS deposits within the extensive hydrothermally altered Lyndhurst felsic volcanic complex lies below a minimum vertical depth of 800 m. An experimental ambient frequency surface geophysical survey was conducted over the deep seated Moses sulphide zone however this test failed to definitively demonstrate its ability to detect the presence of deeply buried conductive sulphides.
In the light of these findings, it is concluded that any meaningful further deep exploration work would require a focus on stratigraphic drilling. Several deep targets have yet to be fully assessed.
In 2014, work to re-evaluate deep stratigraphic drilling at the Moses VMS zone and the under-explored eastern sector of the property continued. Rehabilitation work in connection with the exploration program on the Lyndhurst property continued at the old Lyndhurst mine site began in 2014 and continued through 2015 with re-vegetation of closed areas. Surface water tests are taken twice a year to monitor local water quality at the site.
In 2015, sample rejects from the 2009 channel sampling program at the Lyndhurst Mine zone Zone 1 were re-submitted for litho-geochemical analysis with a view to determining the value of near surface material as a potential value-added smelter flux. Results identified a low grade envelope 20 m thick and 40 m in length open in both NE-SW directions grading 0.73% Cu, 10.9 gpt Ag, 80.3% SiO2. A higher grade 2.06% Cu, 26.9 gpt Ag and 78.6% SiO2 zone, 5 m thick and 30 m in length is located inside the envelope.
A new technology, deep-penetrating airborne geophysical survey covering the Lyndhurst mine and the Moses zone was also performed and preliminary results present areas of interest to be reviewed in 2016 once a full interpretation has been completed.

Coast Guard coordinates rescue of 3 people, dog
NORFOLK, Va. -- Three people and a dog were rescued Friday from a life raft in the Atlantic Ocean about 900 miles northeast of Bermuda after their sailboat sank in a storm, according to the U.S. Coast Guard.
The 49-foot-sailboat Blue Pearl sank Thursday evening after being badly battered from two days of storms, according to an audio recording with the sailboat's captain posted by the Coast Guard.
"We were preparing to die," said Leonard Rorke, 55, a United Kingdom citizen who is the sailboat's owner.
Also rescued were Henri Worthalter, 29, of Belgium, Lisa Rorke, 50, of the United Kingdom and Dexter, a Jack Russell Terrier.
Coast Guard officials were notified Thursday by the International Rescue Center after a message came in saying people were in a life raft and needed help. Coast Guard watch standers in Portsmouth, Va., issued a call for help about 6:30 p.m. to any commercial ships in the vicinity of the life raft. Three ships answered the call and diverted their course to aid in the search.
The sailboat's crew had an electronic position-indicating radio beacon in the life raft that allowed the Coast Guard to direct ships toward their location.

Conserving cash for exploration?
this will help, to be paid in june. see adr'shttp://www.statoil.com/en/InvestorCentre/Share/DividendPolicy/Pages/DividendAmounts.aspx
It depends on when the Annual Meeting is. European investors get the dividend two days, I think it is, after the Annual Meeting. US and Canadian investors get it a week or two later.This has been their standard practice forever.I wish they'd go to twice yearly or even quarterly dividends. That would definitely help the stock price. But being Norwegian, they are stubborn - as well as dour.
Cancel the dividend???Did I miss something?I didn't see it on the STOweb site.
I didn't see it on the website either - does that mean NO DIVIDEND this year?!!!!!!!!!!!!I needing cash to buy more Jiffy Pop for wren I have my flems over to my pad (in my parent's basement).Runt rill I do now?!!!Shoplift more junk from Walmart?Please advise?You flem,Mr. Chenp.s. What you beef, Jerky?

The Lewis-Clark State Golf team is returning to school with their season beginning on September 15th. Last season, both the men's and women's golf teams were extremely close to national titles, having both made it to the championship tournament. Now with several new recruits, Head Coach Paul Thompson will be challenged with adjusting his new players to the college level.
"I've gotten at least eight to ten players at least that in high school shot really good rounds," said Thompson. "But they were the number one player in that whole tournament, where as when they get to college, you've got multiple guys that are hitting the ball past you, and it just kinda' gets into their game."
The Lewis-Clark Golf team tees off September 15th at the fall kickoff in Kennewick, Washington.

A Lexington Retirement Community, or Lexington 55+ Retirement Communities are both generic terms that can cover a variety of Lexington 55+ Communities or housing options that are designed for those who above a certain age or no longer work. Different from a retirement home, which is usually a single structure, Lexington retirement communities and Lexington retirement homes can be a series of buildings and complexes with common social areas. Many Lexington Retirement Community homes or a Lexington Retirement Village in South Carolina can be designed with this purpose in mind by offering seniors such things as tennis courts, golf courses, and swimming pools.
Sometimes Lexington Senior Retirement Communities or Lexington Adult Retirement Communities might have age restrictions that require one member of the household to be over the age of 55. A large number of retirement communities are built in warm climates as Florida, Arizona, and California. But now Lexington retirement living and Lexington retirement apartments are often built within or near large metropolitan areas. Many states have established certified Lexington Retirement Centers community programs and Lexington retirement facilities community programs to encourage economic development for senior citizens who have retired.
