Assumption 1: People Diet Because They Need to Lose Weight
As I said in my first post, koans are questions that have no logical answer, given by a Zen master in order to challenge students' assumptions and lead them on a road to insight. When first faced with a koan, people almost always respond by being rational and reasonable, not knowing that those answers, by design, simply won't work. The same is true for dieting. People are urged to try (or buy) ever-new approaches to losing weight but invariably fail. The dieter, like the Zen student, is trapped within walls made of his or her own unexamined assumptions.
Perhaps the most basic of all assumptions made by dieters is that they actually need to diet. While the American culture bombards us with the message that we need to lose weight, the truth is that many of us, especially women, need to either stop dieting or reassess our motivations for dieting. Consider the following facts: while about 25 percent of women are overweight, 75 percent say they are overweight and feel ashamed of their "failure" to change.[1] Young girls between age eleven and seventeen are more afraid of becoming fat than they are of nuclear war, cancer, or losing their parents.[2] Ninety percent of high school girls diet regularly, even though less than 20 percent are over the weight recommended by the standard height-weight charts.[3] Negative body image is associated with suicide for girls but not for boys.[4] Fifty percent of girls between age nine and ten feel better about themselves if they are dieting.[5] The most common behavior that leads to an eating disorder is dieting.[6] About eight million Americans have eating disorders, seven million of them women.[7] Seventy-five percent of women choose an ideal body size that is 10 to 20 percent underweight.[8] And women's magazines have ten times more articles and ads promoting weight loss than men's magazines.[9]
While messages about the harm caused by obesity and the need to lose weight are almost ever-present, messages that speak to the pain, shame, and dangers of dieting are relatively rare. The basic assumption that people need to be fed (pardon the pun) the message that they need to lose weight may seem straightforward, but may also perpetrate a kind of illness of its own.

Hey kitchenbreak.
If we have waste of 20% then per kg this is 10.00 * 0.2 = $2.00 per kg. Now this is sold at half price so the final waste of the product (that can't be recovered) is $2.00 - $2.00 * 0.5 = $1.00 per kg.
So over-all we waste $1.00 per kg for every kg we buy if we buy it at $10.00 per kg.
So now we need to figure out how much chocolate is needed and then consider the rebate we get when we sell the waste for half price (relative to purchase price).
If we waste 20% then it means that buying z amount of chocolate and wasting 20% will leave the total amount in the product which is 0.9kg. So 0.8z = 0.9 so x = 0.9kg/0.8 = 1.125kg and at $10.00 per kg we get the cost as $11.25. To check the weight 20% of 1.125 is 0.225 and 1.125-0.225=0.9 as expected.
So the total cost is $11.25 and the waste is 0.225kg which means the cost of this waste before selling is 0.225kg * $10.00 per kg = $2.25.
The company will get back half of this by selling it at a reduced rate which means the rebate is 50% of $2.25 = $1.12 (roughly rounded down).
Now the total cost was $11.25 for ingredients but they got a rebate of $1.17 for selling off the waste at half price which means total cost is $11.25 - $1.12 or $10.13 as expected.

With seemingly the worst of the blackout behind them, the City of Prince Albert, its services and its citizens were moving forward on Wednesday.
With seemingly the worst of the blackout behind them, the City of Prince Albert, its services and its citizens were moving forward on Wednesday.
For the most part, life resumed as normal, with facilities, gas stations and grocery stores re-opening for business.
While the Kinsmen Water Park, Alfred Jenkins Fieldhouse and all spray parks remained closed, all other city facilities were open on Wednesday.
Mayor Jim Scarrow said the city and its residents performed admirably during the outage.
"I would say very well," he said.
"First of all, we're fortunate that it was in June and not January. It could have been devastating in terms of affecting many of our population in terms of just dealing with winter conditions with no heat source. That being said, it rallied the community."
Throughout the day on Tuesday there were several instances of neighbours lending a hand, friends sharing power-outage tips and drivers acting courteously at powerless intersections.
"I think because everybody realized that each of us had a responsibility to be courteous and drive cautiously that they did so, so that was just a really good sign of how the community responded," Scarrow said.
The public was also mindful of their wastewater usage, helping the city's treatment plant remain at manageable levels.
While Scarrow said that the city has "quality water and lots of it," for drinking purposes, wastewater usage (toilet flushes, long showers, etc.) should be kept to a minimum until power is fully restored.
The SaskPower crews who are working diligently to provide that power to the city deserve thanks, he said.
"This was an act-of-god storm that went through," Scarrow said.
"The conditions that they are working in are in remote areas, where wheeled vehicles aren't applicable. They needed to find tracked vehicles so that they could travel and bring supplies in, so kudos to them."
The city's other services, including Parkland Ambulance and the Prince Albert Police Service (PAPS), did their part as well.
Despite bringing all hands on deck for the possibility of opportunistic thieves, police had a relatively quiet night, responding to approximately 50 calls.
Kelly McLean, media relations officer with the PAPS, said the service was well prepared for the blackout.
"We've had that plan in place for a long, long time," he said, on PAPS power-outage protocols.
"We should all do that kind of preventative planning, and we've done that scenario planning in the past. It's a little difficult to know in terms of manpower, but we try to err on the side of caution, and we brought in extra staff last night."
The all-hands-on-deck approach meant a higher visibility of police officers around the city.
With most of their bases covered, McLean said the main concern among police was uncontrolled intersections.
"We were a little concerned (Tuesday) about all of those traffic lights going down, because we don't deal with that issue much," he said.
"The city got some power to the main intersections to allow traffic flow north and south."
The concerns were unfounded, however, as the four-way stop system at most intersections resulted in few collisions.
"We do more vehicle collisions when the traffic lights are working than we did (Tuesday) when the traffic lights weren't working," said Lyle Karasiuk, director of public affairs for Parkland Ambulance.
While Parkland Ambulances paramedics didn't have much to deal with in the way of major incidents, the power outage shows the need for emergency preparedness.
"It's a good reminder for all of us," Karasiuk said.
"Those things we used to get through the blackout — candles, battery-powered radios, flashlight, extra batteries, bottled water — (are) things that we need to stock up on. As you're restocking those, think about building a kit. It doesn't take much."
Scarrow agreed that preparation is essential for future emergency situations.
"I think it would be prudent, particularly as we approach winter, to have some kind of plan should power go out," he said, adding that he doesn't mean for people to worry or panic, "but I think we do need to think about this eventuality happening to us at a time when we would be most vulnerable."
All told, the community's 24-hour brush with a simpler way of life amounts to nothing more than an inconvenience when compared to other incidents around the world.
"Nobody was injured, nobody lost their life … just think of Elliot Lake, and the tragedy that they're going through as a community (with the mall collapse)," Scarrow said.
"We're not even on any kind of measurement like that. We were inconvenienced, but not largely enough that it would have impacted us. We just had to be a little more resourceful, and perhaps a little more respectful of those services that we count on, right from our coffee in the morning through to gasoline in the evening."

For our final project we have to pick a minimum of two quanitive variables and see if there is a relationship between these variables by using statistic ways of analyzing data (e.g. standard deviation). I was wondering if anyone had any ideas of two or more variables that I could use for my project. I am having a trouble with coming up with an idea, that is socially or ethnically revelvant to society, and that has a lot of data values for the variable.
Thanks for any ideas.

Amtrak sued over Vt. teen's deathBy Gordon Dritschilo
Staff Writer | July 14,2013The father of a Vernon teenager killed by a train is suing Amtrak.
Michael Pratt filed a federal lawsuit Friday against the passenger rail service as well as New England Central Railroad and the conductor and engineer on duty at the time of the accident.
Pratts son, 15-year-old Eric Pratt, was hit by a train in January at a crossing at the intersection of Route 142 and Bemis Road in Vernon.
According to the lawsuit, Eric Pratt was walking north on the side of Route 142 when he turned onto Bemis road, entered the rail crossing and was struck without warning.
The crossing lacked gates or flashing lights to warn of an approaching train, according to the lawsuit. The complaint also charges that the train crew did not sound a proper horn warning, keep a careful lookout, or slow the train down to avoid hitting Pratt.
The filing also claims the railroad failed to clear vegetation from around the crossing, to provide adequate sightlines around it, and to properly mark the crossing. It also argues that dangers at the crossing were not properly evaluated, leading to a design that was not safe and reasonable.
The lawsuit seeks medical and funeral expenses along with damages for pain, suffering, mental anguish, loss of enjoyment of life and any other remedies the court might find just, equitable and proper. No specific dollar amount is listed.
Pratts lawyer, Burlington attorney Robert Behrens, and representatives of Amtrak could not be reached for comment Friday.
The Vermonter train from Washington, D.C., to St. Albans was carrying 141 passengers at the time of the fatal event.

Yes, it is too early to talk about the 2012 NFL draft, but Charger fans have earned a well-deserved break from this season that has "snowballed out of control"—as Philip Rivers so eloquently put it.
So basically, take this article for what it's worth—a pre-pre NFL draft analysis.
The 2012 draft promises to be strong at many positions that the Chargers could use help at.
Andrew Luck and Matt Barkley won't be the only stars coming out of this draft class.
As it stands now, the Chargers would receive the 10th pick in the draft. All indications point to players like Matt Kalil, Morris Claiborne, Quinton Couples and Justin Blackmon already being selected.
Let's take a look at some of the other players that could help the Chargers team.

New Community Center Honors Rosenthal
NEW ORLEANS -- Clifford Rosenthal, the executive director of the National Federation of Community Development Credit Unions has been honored with the naming of a new community center in a part of New Orleans hardest hit by Hurricane Katrina.
The decision was made by the $266 million ASI Federal Credit Union and its nonprofit community development affiliate, A Shared Initiative.
"We chose to name the center after Cliff as a symbol of all the Federation has done, not only for ASI and its non-profit affiliate, but for all community development credit unions," said ASI FCU Senior Vice President Sarah Taylor. "If not for Cliff, ASI wouldn't be where it is today, particularly after Hurricane Katrina."
The property and building for the community center were purchased by the credit union's non-profit arm, ASII, with help from a $100,000 challenge grant from the Federation's Community Development Relief and Rebuilding Fund. That fund raised nearly $1 million from CDCUs, the broader credit union movement, and foundations to support rebuilding of low-income credit unions in the gulf region.

Main Forums > Living With HIV
Medication question from Inbound traveller to US
(1/2) > >>
Hi All,I am an Australian living and working in Belgium, but I have just accepted a new contract which will require me to travel to Chicago for at least a week a month over the next 6 months. Whenever I have visited the US previously, I have always arranged to collect my meds there, either by mailing ahead to a charity organization or by contact with a sympathetic GP. I have asked some friends in the US if they have any contacts in Chicago who may be able to put me in touch with support groups there. Some have suggested that I just pack my meds and not worry about customs, however I am reluctant to do this as I have had a close friend deported on arrival after meds were found in his luggage. Given the current political climate and increased airport security, I would be surprised if attitudes towards positive tourists have been relaxed very much! And the fact that I will be returning for five or six months makes me a likely target for customs inspection.So if anyone has any advice on where or how I can obtain meds on arrival, it would be greatly appreciated. I am taking Norvir, Invirase, Viread and Emtriva.Thanks for your time.Luke
Carry a prescription from your Dr. saying you are under treatment and need those meds.
Try contacting one of these places:www.aidschicago.orgwww.aidslegal.orgwww.behiv.org
Joe K:
LukeGet your meds once you get here, because if you are not a citizen and they catch you with HIV drugs, back home you go, work contract or not. It is not worth the risk to try and take them thru customs.
I guess the question is do you have private health insurance that will cover the cost of the meds? It's easy to find a doctor that will prescribe meds for you, but the concern would be how do you pay for them. Unless you are a US resident/citizen and are elgible for aid from the various governmental programs, I wonder how likely you are going to be able to find an organization that will pay for your meds.Whether you ship them ahead of time or take them with you, your meds will go through customs, (people usually don't realize that customs checks packages as they enter the country).My personal opinion is odds are you are much better with just taking your meds with you (carry-on) than shipping them ahead of you or trying to locate them (and pay for them) once you get to the States. But if you're not willing (or able) to take that risk (understandable, given your work situation), then getting your health insurance to pay for yours meds in advance is probably the best way to go.

One Razor
Micro Touch One is a classic safety razor that's the modern version of the single blade razor. For over 100 years, the best way to shave is by using a single blade razor and you can bring that back by using Micro Touch One instead of expensive multi-blade razors.
The Claim
Micro Touch One classic safety razor gives you perfectly smooth shave every time. Even professional barbers still use a single blade so you know that a single blade is all you need. Unlike multi-blade razors that are tough to clean, Micro Touch One opens with a simple twist for easy cleaning so you're sure there's no gunk trapped inside and your blade will last longer. It feels like a precision-crafted machine right in the palm of your hand.
Total Cost Breakdown
The cost of One Razor is $19.99 plus $7.99 shipping. The special TV offer allows a free gift which you will receive by paying the extra shipping fee of $4.99 for a total price of $32.97.

What Is It?
One Razor is an incredible new razor that is a modern version of the single razor blade that people always used before manufacturers starting adding additional blades to their razors. Now, there is a new way to get a very smooth shave, without having to pay more for those additional blades.
Does It Really Work?
The fact of the matter is that One Razor really does work, and it's so simple to use. For years, professional barbers and people in the military only shaved using a single razor blade. Professional barbers still only use a single razor blade because they know it will give their customers a very smooth shave in no time at all.
Lasts And Lasts
The One Razor has proven to last and last, and it's very easy to take good care of it. More modern razors are often hard to keep clean because of all those additional blades, and they often get bunged up with gunk. The One Razor is different, and it's so simple to keep it clean:
- Open the One Razor with a twist so the blade is exposed
- Remove the blade from the razor, taking care not to hurt yourself on the sharp edges
- Check the blade for gunk that could cause it to work less well
- Wash the gunk off the blade, taking care to check both sides of the blade
- Replace the blade in the razor and twist the top of it back on
- Use your One Razor with confidence, safe in the knowledge that cleaning it now and again will help it to last even longer, , which means you will have a close smoother shave every day for many years to come.
- If youre used to shaving with a razor that has many blades, you may need to learn to shave again. Here are a few tips that might just help you out.
- Watch a few videos that show barbers and apprentice barbers how to shave with a single razor. There will be many hints and tips that will help to boost your confidence
- Practice on a hidden part of your arm or leg if youre not comfortable shaving your face just yet
- If you're not sure how effective the razor will be, try not to shave too hard as a rash could form
- If youre still not feeling confident, ask your barber to give you a few tips
- Make sure you continue to use the moisturizers and shaving gels that you love
When you come to use your One Razor for the first time, you may be a little unsure about it. These days advertisements tell us that having a razor with many blades is a good thing because it will give you an extra smooth shave. Even though some of these razors work really well, there are many that aren't up to scratch. Trust in the One Razor to give you a great smooth shave every single time.

Sometimes the derivation is more interesting than the meaning of the word. Take Chambers Dictionary's entry for the word solecism:
solecism n a breach of syntax or a nonstandard grammatical usage; any absurdity, impropriety, or incongruity; a breach of good manners or etiquette. [Gr soloikismos, said to come from the corruption of the Attic dialect among the Athenian colonists (oikizein to colonize) of Soloi in Cilicia]
And what brought this happy word to mind? It was the suggestion of singing a hymn based on the Nunc Dimittis, at Morning Prayer…
But the derivation got me thinking about how colonists corrupt the dialect of the country they originally came from. We end up with many different forms of English: American, Australian, New Zealand etc. But haven't they quite often preserved forms of the dialect which have not been preserved in the original? Like the ways American English has preserved some aspects of the vocabulary, syntax and pronunciation of the 17th century standard English spoken by the original colonists.

Meth prevention talk at BMMS
An enhanced approach to stopping the use of methamphetamine in its tracks was unveiled March 26 at Bennett's Mill Middle School. Representatives of the Ga. Meth Project were at the school to hear health teacher Dr. Cathy Folden-Handley teach the new meth prevention curriculum to her eighth-grade classes.
Folden-Handley is passionate about making sure students at Bennett's Mill Middle have accurate information about choices that can adversely affect their futures, said Fayette County School System spokesperson Melinda Berry-Dreisbach.
Berry-Dreisbach said officials from the Georgia Dept. of Education and the Georgia Meth Project were in attendance to watch Folden-Handley deliver the nearly hour-long lesson using the Project's online interactive teaching site.
Bennett's Mill is among about two dozen middle and high schools in the state that will start using the curriculum, which is optional and free for districts and schools, Berry-Dreisbach said.
The classroom lessons were developed as a way to reach thousands more students before they try the highly addictive drug.
It is the next step of the project's campaign that started with hard-hitting radio, television, print, online, mobile and social media advertisements that communicate the risks of meth use, said Berry-Dreisbach.
Jim Langford, Georgia Meth Project's executive director, told students that Georgia has the worst problem in the country with teens trying meth for the first time. He also noted that experimenting with the drug just once may be a mistake from which they will never recover, alluding to the project's slogan of "Not Even Once."
"Methamphetamine is a significant threat in Georgia," Langford said. "According to the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, Atlanta is a strategic trafficking hub. We are seeing supplies increase and teens tell us meth is easy to get. We need to ensure they understand how dangerous meth is so if they are confronted with a decision on whether or not to try the drug they will make the right choice. With the Meth Prevention Lesson teachers can take that message into classrooms throughout Georgia."
State school Superintendent John Barge included his thoughts to the significance of the prevention lesson.
"It only takes using meth once to create a lifetime of physical, mental and social problems that cannot be fixed by throwing young people in jail. Preventing first-time meth use is essential," Barge said.
Statistics show that 20 percent of Georgia teens say meth is easy to obtain.

Story Details
Governor's Chief of Staff to Take Vice President Position at University of Utah
Dec. 03, 2010
SALT LAKE CITY - After helping Governor Gary R. Herbert successfully navigate two difficult budget cycles and his first legislative session, as well as achieve a sweeping victory in the November election, Jason Perry is leaving the Governor's Office for the University of Utah.
"Since taking office, my top priority for the State of Utah has been economic development. I asked Jason to join my team because of his experience in this area, and quickly found him to be an invaluable advisor in this and many other areas," Governor Herbert said. "He has been critical to our achievements over the past 18 months, and I am saddened to see him go, but I know he has helped set the stage for future success."
Perry has accepted a position as Vice President for Government Relations at the University of Utah, where he will be responsible for managing the University's state and federal relations. Perry has served with Governor Herbert since June 2009, first leading the Governor's transition team before his appointment as chief of staff.
"The University of Utah is thrilled to have Jason joining our team, and grateful to Governor Herbert for supporting his decision to take this next step," University of Utah President Michael K. Young. "His experience inside and outside the Governor's Office, coupled with his commitment to higher education, make him uniquely qualified to represent the University throughout Utah and the country. We are absolutely delighted to have him on board."
Perry graduated from the University of Utah's College of Law in May 1999. He has a bachelor's degree in political science from Brigham Young University. He has previously served as Executive Director of the Governor's Office of Economic Development, as well as Deputy Director of the Utah Department of Commerce, an Assistant Utah Attorney General and a Special Assistant United States Attorney.
"It has been an honor to work alongside Governor Herbert and help him achieve his vision for the State of Utah," Perry said. "Having worked closely with the Governor during his first 18 months in office, which has included a legislative session and an overwhelmingly successful campaign, I know the Governor is perfectly positioned to ensure that Utah remains the most dynamic state in the nation."
Perry will continue to serve as Governor Herbert's chief of staff through the end of the year.

I tutor in our Math Dept's math lab, and one of the things we are learning to NOT say to a student is "Oh this is easy!" because it can be misconstrued a certain way; but dear god in heaven man - these problems are BASIC fundamentals. I mean, have you even taken a crack at solving any of them? About the only one that you couldn't write the answer straight down in two lines is #4 and #6.
I will certainly help, but when I see a mass of problems like this, with zero information on what you know, or what you've tried - I'm inclined to not assist.

Click on image for larger version.Defending Modified track champion Mike Mahaney became the seventh different winner in as many races on Vernooy's Automotive Excellence Night at I-88 Speedway on Friday night. Mahaney, of King Ferry, started fifth in the 22 car field and slipped under Chad Cook coming off turn two on lap 11 to take the lead.
"We got a big race coming up Tuesday" Mahaney said in reference to the upcoming Race of Champions event at the speedway on June 24.
"I think we've got a real good shot at it now… a lot of confidence after tonight. It was tough to get by Chad there, but once I did I thought I'd search around just in case somebody'd come up on me because I've had a number of races in the past where I'd run one line the whole race and then somebody'd come up and pass me on the last lap and I didn't want that to happen so I searched around and found couple grooves that worked for us."
Cook, of Deposit took the lead from the pole position and held off Fly Creek's Jeff Leslie during the early potion of the race before Shaun Walker slipped past Leslie on a lap 3 restart to move into second. Leslie surrendered third to Mahaney one lap later with Mitch Gibbs moving past Leslie on lap six.
Mahaney continued his run to the front passing Masonville's Walker using an outside line coming off turn two on lap 8. Gibbs drove under Walker one lap later coming off turn four. After a lap 17 caution for Tyler Siri of Horseheads slowing after making contact with the front stretch wall, the race restarted with Mahaney leading, Cook running second, Gibbs third, Windsor's Brian Weaver fourth and Walker fifth. Mahaney quickly jumped out to a half straightaway lead and went on to take the win. Gibbs finished second, Walker third, Cook fourth and Brett Tonkin of Carbondale PA fifth after starting 11th.
Brandon Walters of Unadilla took the lead from Harpursville's Gary Card at the start of the 20 lap Sportsmen feature. After a lap five caution for debris on the backstretch, Walters jumped out to a five car length advantage over second place Card.
A caution on lap six, a result of Afton's Skip Pickwick and Duane Jackson of New Berlin tangling on the front stretch, regrouped the field. On the restart Walters again jumped out to a comfortable lead.
Walton's Butch Klinger used an outside line to move into second place with five laps remaining. Rob Barker's roll after contact with the front stretch wall coming out of turn four brought out the red flag with four laps remaining. Barker of Mount Upton, was uninjured in the incident. Bethel's Charlie Hendrickson Jr. was running third at the time of the red flag but had to pit when the yellow was brought out due to a flat right rear tire.
Klinger pressured Walters for the final four laps of the event but was unable to make the pass for the win. Klinger finished second with Alan Barker of Norwich third, Harpursville's Travis Smith fourth and Randy Green of Wallkill fifth.
"That last restart kinda scared me a little bit. We had a little push into one and two and then I see someone peeking their nose down, so I kinda had to shut the door down in three and four. The car was good all night. Coming into the feature I was a little bit skeptical. The car came around pretty good on the top. I wasn't sure top, bottom, because as the leader early you really don't know where to go." Walters said after the race.
Brenton Miller of Athens PA picked up his second Olum's Street Stock feature win of the season. Miller took the lead from Edmeston's Jim Gould on the second lap after starting fifth on the grid. Seventh starting Matt Roberts of Nineveh passed Gould for second on a lap 5 restart with Windsor's Doug Polhamus following two laps later.
Polhamus would pass Roberts for second on lap 8 while Miller pulled away from the field opening a full straightaway advantage by lap 13 and cruising to the win. Polhamus finished second with Roberts third, Gould fourth and Sidney's Paul Harrington coming from the back of the pack to finish fifth.
"We tore this thing up last Saturday night. Ripped the right side off it, ripped the hood off it, I mean the bumpers were ripped off it. A lot of work went into this week." Said Miller. "To get a good run out of it, that's awesome. We made a few adjustments a couple of weeks back and obviously we haven't been able to try them here because of the rain and weather on Friday nights. The cars been great ever since. I was eager to get back here and see if they would work here and as of tonight they worked."
Binghamton's Matt Cole continued his June hot streak taking his first IMCA Modified feature win of the season on championship night for the division. Cole's week started off with a win in the Empire Series race at Yates County Speedway in Dundee. Starting eighth Cole worked his way to the front taking the lead from second starting Gary Smith on lap 8 and cruising to the win in the 25 lap event. Smith finished second with Harpursville's James Cornell third, Kattelville's Tyler Stoddard fourth and Brian Steigerwald of Norwich finishing fifth.
"It's been a great week. We got the car going really, really good. Last two races it's been a rocket ship" said Cole after the race.
Pat Votra of Marathon picked up the win in the Empire Sport Trucks 20 lap championship event in his first appearance of the season. Wayne Van Dusen Jr. of Norwich finished second with Unadilla's Ralph Cuozzo Jr. third, Sherburne's Allan Hodge fourth and Bob Crandall of Unadilla fifth.
Bill Nichols of Binghamton picked up the win in the 16 lap SRP Sprint feature over Candor's Kyle Pierce, Afton's Dave Smith, Alan Lockwood of Afton and Cliff Pierce of Candor.

WA has just one club left in the FFA Cup after local league leaders Bayswater City were beaten 2-0 by Melbourne Victory at the WA Athletics Stadium on Wednesday night.
Goals either side of half-time from Kosta Barbarouses and Archie Thompson were enough for the A-League heavyweights to see off the brave Bayswater, who took the game to their more fancied opponents after the break.
The loss saw Bayswater bundled out of the nationwide knockout competition in the round of 32 with fellow NPL WA club Stirling Lions, who were beaten 4-0 by A-League champions Brisbane Roar on Tuesday.
Perth Glory are through to the round of 16, with the draw to be conducted tomorrow.
Victory controlled the first half against Bayswater and made their dominance count when Barbarouses opened the scoring in the 23rd minute.
Bayswater didn't test Victory goalkeeper Nathan Coe until late in the first half when David Heagney's swerving long-range strike forced the gloveman to push the ball over the bar.
They looked threatening after the break, but were undone when Thompson found room in the box to calmly guide a shot past goalkeeper Devon Spence in the 76th minute.
Bayswater coach Chris Coyne said he was proud of his side's efforts.
"I think we started really slow but the second half was indicative of what we've done all year," Coyne said.
"Until they (Melbourne) got their second I thought we were just getting in control and grabbed the game by the throat, but that's just how football is.
"They've got that much quality that as soon as they go forward they can score, but for a part-time outfit I thought we were thoroughly professional."
Bayswater's focus will now turn to the final round of the NPL WA regular season, where victory in their final match against Sorrento on Saturday will guarantee them the league title.
Only Perth SC, who sit two points behind Bayswater and visit Cockburn City in the final round, can catch the league leaders.
"The matches are all big at this time of the year and we're really looking forward to going to Percy Doyle (Reserve)," Coyne said.
"Hopefully the wind tunnel isn't on up there and we'll go and enjoy it. It's another game of football that we're looking forward to."
